1.All This Time
I looked out across
The river today
I saw a city in the fog
And an old church tower
Where the seagulls play
Saw the sad shire horses
Walking home in the sodium light
Saw two priests on the ferry
October geese on a cold winter's night
And all this time
The river flowed
Endlessly,
To the sea.
Two priests came round
Our house tonight
One young, one old,
To offer prayers for the dying,
To serve the final rite
One to learn, one to teach
Which way the cold wind blows
Fussing and flapping in priestly black
Like a murder of crows
And all this time
The river flowed
Endlessly,
To the sea.
If i had my way
I'd take a boat from the river
And i'd bury the old man
I'd bury him at sea
Blessed are the poor
For they shall inherit the earth
One is better to be poor
Than a fat man in the eye of a needle
As these words were spoken
I swear i hear the old man laughing
What good is a used up world,
And how could it be worth having？
And all this time
The river flowed
Endlessly,
To the sea.
All this time
The river flowed
Father, if jesus exists,
Then how come he never lived here？
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Teachers told us
The romans built this place
They built a wall and a temple on the edge of the
Empire garrison town
They lived and they died
They prayed to their gods
But the stone gods did not make a sound
And their empire crumbled
Till all that was left
Were the stones the workmen found
And all this time the river flowed
In the falling light of a northern sun
If i had my way
I'd take a boat from the river
Men go crazy in congregations
They only get better one by one
One by one
One by one, by one
One by one
I looked out across
The river today
I saw a city in the fog
And an old church tower
Where the seagulls play
Saw the sad shire horses
Walking home in the sodium light
Two priests on the ferry
October geese on a cold winter's night
2.Demolition Man
Oh! demolition, demolition
Demolition, demolition
Tied to the tracks and the train's fast coming
Strapped to the wing with the engine running
You say that this wasn't in your plan
And don't mess around with the demolition man
Tied to a chair, and the bomb is ticking
This situation was not of your picking
You say that this wasn't in your plan
And don't mess around with the demolition man
I'm a walking nightmare, an arsenal of doom
I kill conversation as i walk into the room
I'm a three line whip, i'm the sort of thing they ban
I'm a walking disaster, i'm a demolition man
Demolition, demolition
Demolition, demolition
You come to me like a moth to the flame
It's love you need but i don't play that game
'cause you could be my greatest fan
But i'm nobody's friend, i'm a demolition man
I'm a walking nightmare, an arsenal of doom
I kill conversation as i walk into the room
I'm a three line whip, i'm the sort of thing they ban
I'm a walking disaster, i'm a demolition man
Demolition, demolition
Demolition, demolition
Tied to the tracks and the train's fast coming
Strapped to the wing with the engine running
You say that this wasn't in your plan
And don't mess around with the demolition man
Tied to a chair, and the bomb is ticking
This situation was not of your picking
You say that this wasn't in your plan
And don't mess around with the demolition man
3.Englishman In New York
i don't drink coffee i'll take tea my dear
I like my toast done on one side
As you can hear it in my accent when i talk
I'm an englishman in new york
See me walking down fifth avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere i walk
I'm an englishman in new york
I'm an alien, i'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in new york
I'm an alien, i'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in new york
If 'manners maketh man' as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien, i'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in new york
I'm an alien, i'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in new york
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run
If 'manners maketh man' as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien, i'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in new york
I'm an alien, i'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in new york
4.Fields Of Gold
you'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold
So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley？
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that i've broken
But i swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
As you lie in the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
5.Fragile
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star, like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star, like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
6.If I Ever Lose My Faith In You
You could say i lost my faith in science and progress
You could say i lost my belief in the holy church
You could say i lost my sense of direction
You could say all of this and worse, but
If i ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
Some would say i was a lost man in a lost world
You could say i lost my faith in the people on t.v.
You could say i'd lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If i ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
But every time i close my eyes, i see your face
I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse,
But let me say this first
If i ever lose my faith in you
If i ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
There'd be nothing left for me to do
If i ever lose my faith
If i ever lose my faith
If i ever lose my faith
If i ever lose my faith in you
7.If You Love Somebody Set Them Free
Free, free, set them free
Free, free, set them free
Free, free, set them free
If you need somebody
Call my name
If you want someone
You can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
If you love somebody
If you love someone
If you love somebody
If you love someone, set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
If it's a mirror you want
Just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy
Someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be
If you love somebody
If you love someone
If you love somebody
If you love someone, set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
You can't control an independent heart
Can't tear the one you love apart
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
We can't live here and be happy with less
So many riches
So many souls
With everything we see that we want to possess
If you need somebody
Call my name
If you want someone
You can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
You want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
If you love somebody
If you love someone
If you love somebody
If you love someone, set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
8.It's Probably Me
Written：sting, michael kamen and eric clapton
If the night turned cold
And the stars looked down
And you hug yourself
On the cold cold ground
You wake the morning
In a stranger's coat
No-one would you see
You ask yourself, 'who'd watch for me？'
My only friend, who could it be？
It's hard to say it
I hate to say it
But it's probably me
When your belly's empty
And the hunger's so real
And you're too proud to beg
And too dumb to steal
You search the city
For your only friend
No-one would you see
You ask yourself, 'who could it be？'
A solitary voice to speak out and set me free
I hate to say it
I hate to say it
But it's probably me
You're not the easiest person i ever got to know
And it's hard for us both to let our feelings show
Some would say
I should let you go your way
You'll only make me cry
If there's one guy, just one guy
Who'd lay down his life for you and die
It's hard to say it
I hate to say it
But it's probably me
When the world's gone crazy, and it makes no sense
And there's only one voice that comes to your defence
And the jury's out
And your eyes search the room
And one friendly face is all you need to see
If there's one guy, just one guy
Who'd lay down his life for you and die
It's hard to say it
I hate to say it
But it's probably me
I hate to say it
I hate to say
But it's probably me
I hate to say it
I hate to say
But it's probably me
I hate to say it
I hate to say
But it's probably me
9.Love Is The Seventh Wave
In the empire of the senses
You're the queen of all you survey
All the cities, all the nation
Everything that falls your way, i say
There is a deeper world than this that you don't understand
There is a deeper world that this tugging at your hand
Every ripple on the ocean
Every leaf on every tree
Every sand dune in the desert
Every power we never see
There is a deeper wave than this, swelling in the world
There is a deeper wave than this, listen to me girl
Feel it rising in the cities
Feel it sweeping overland
Over borders, over frontiers
Nothing will its power withstand, i say
There is no deeper wave than this rising in the world
There is no deeper wave than this listen to me girl
All the bloodshed, all the anger
All the weapons, all the greed
All the armies, all the missiles
All the symbols of that fear, i say
There is a deeper wave than this rising in the world
There is a deeper wave than this, listen to me girl
At the still point of destruction
At the centre of the fury
All the angels, all the devils
All around us, can't you see？
There is a deeper wave than this rising in the land
There is a deeper wave than this nothing will withstand
I say love is the seventh wave
I say love is the seventh wave
I say love is the seventh wave
I say love is the seventh wave
I say love is the seventh wave
I say love is the seventh wave
I say love
Every ripple on the ocean
Every leaf on every tree
Every sand dune in the desert
Every breath you take with me
Every breath you take, every move you make
Every cake you bake, every leg you break
10.Mad About You
A stone's throw from jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
That whirls around the april moon
Whirling in an arc of sadness
I'm lost without you, i'm lost without you
Though all my kingdoms turn to sand and fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, i'm mad about you
And from the dark secluded valleys
I heard the ancient songs of sadness
But every step i thought of you
Every footstep only you
Every star a grain of sand
The leavings of a dried up ocean
Tell me, how much longer,
How much longer？
They say a city in the desert lies
The vanity of an ancient king
But the city lies in broken pieces
Where the wind howls and the vultures sing
These are the works of man
This is the sum of our ambition
It would make a prison of my life
If you became another's wife
With every prison blown to dust
My enemies walk free
I'm mad about you, i'm mad about you
And i have never in my life
Felt more alone than i do now
Although i claim dominions over all i see
It means nothing to me
There are no victories in all our histories
Without love
A stone's throw from jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
That whirls around the april moon
Whirling in an arc of sadness
I'm lost without you, i'm lost without you
And though you hold the keys to ruin of everything i see
With every prison blown to dust my enemies walk free
Though all my kingdoms turn to sand and fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, i'm mad about you
11.Nothing 'bout Me
Lay my head on the surgeon's table
Take my fingerprints if you are able
Pick my brains, pick my pockets
Steal my eyeballs and come back for the sockets
Run every kind of test from a to z
And you'll still know nothin' 'bout me
Run my name through your computer
Mention me in passing to your college tutor
Check my records, check my facts
Check if i paid my income tax
Pore over everything in my c.v.
But you'll still know nothin' 'bout me
You'll still know nothin' 'bout me
You don't need to read no books on my history
I'm a simple man, it's no big mystery
In the cold weather, a hand needs a glove
At times like this, a lonely man like me needs love
Search my house with a fine tooth comb
Turn over everything 'cause i won't be home
Set up your microscope, and tell me what you see
You'll still know nothin' 'bout me
You'll still know nothin' 'bout me
You'll still know nothin' 'bout me etc.
You'll still know zip a-bout me
12.Russians
In europe and america there's a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the soviets
Mister krushchev said, 'we will bury you'
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It'd be such an ignorant thing to do
If the russians love their children too
How can i save my little boy
From oppenheimer's deadly toy？
There is no monopoly on common sense
On either side of the political fence
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when i say to you
I hope the russians love their children too
There is no historical precedent to put
Words in the mouth of the president
There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't believe anymore
Mister reagan says 'we will protect you'
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when i say to you
I hope the russians love their children too
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us, me and you
Is if the russians love their children too
13.Seven Days
'seven days, was all she wrote
A kind of ultimatum note, she gave to me
She gave to me
When i thought the field had cleared
It seems another suit appeared to challenge me
Woe is me
Though i hate to make a choice
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly
Well, we'll see
I don't think she'd bluff this time
I really have to make her mine
It's plain to see, it's him or me
Monday, i could wait till tuesday
If i make up my mind
Wedn'sday would be fine
Thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time
Saturday could wait
But sunday'd be too late
The fact he's over six feet ten
Might instil fear in other men
But not in me
The mighty flea
Ask if i am mouse or man
The mirror squeaked, away i ran
He'll murder me in time for his tea
Does it bother me at all？
My rival is neanderthal
It makes me think
Perhaps i need a drink
I.q. is no problem here
We won't be playing scrabble for
Her hand, i fear
I need that beer
Monday, i could wait till tuesday
If i make up my mind
Wedn'sday would be fine
Thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time
Saturday could wait
But sunday'd be too late
Seven days will quickly go
The fact remains, i love her so
Seven days
So many ways
But i can't run away
I can't run away
Monday, i could wait till tuesday
If i make up my mind
Wedn'sday would be fine
Thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time
Saturday could wait
But sunday'd be too late
Do i have to tell a story
Of a thousand rainy days
Since we first met？
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up
Getting wet. yeah, yeah.
14.They Dance Alone
why are these women here dancing on their own？
Why is there this sadness in their eyes？
Why are the soldiers here
Their faces fixed like stone？
I can't see what it is that they despise
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone, they dance alone
It's the only form of protest they're allowed
I've seen their silent faces they scream so loud
If they were to speak these words they'd go missing too
Another woman on the torture table what else can they do
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone, they dance alone
One day we'll dance on their graves
One day we'll sing our freedom
One day we'll laugh in our joy
And we'll dance
One day we'll dance on their graves
One day we'll sing our freedom
One day we'll laugh in our joy
And we'll dance
Ellas danzan con los desaparecidos
Danzan con los muertos
Danzan con amores invisibles
Con silenciosa angustia
Danzan con sus padres
Con sus hijos
Con sus esposos
Ellas danzan solas
Danzan solas
Hey mr. pinochet
You've sown a bitter crop
It's foreign money that supports you
One day the money's going to stop
No wages for your torturers
No budget for your guns
Can you think of your own mother
Dancin' with her invisible son
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone, they dance alone
15.This Cowboy Song
We rode all night across an endless desert
We had no moon to light our way
And though a million stars were slowly turning
We lacked the consciences to pray
Our horses running like a devil chase us
Their feet, they hardly touched the ground
Yes, i'm familiar with a grey wolf howling
But i'm certain i never heard that sound
Devil to pay on judgement day
Would jesus strike me down if i should pray？
This cowboy song is all i know
To bring me back into your arms
Your distant sun, your shining light
You'll be my dog-star shining tonight
I've been the lowest of the low on the planet
I've been a sinner all my days
When i was living with my hand on the trigger
I had no sense to change my ways
The preacher asked if i'd embrace the resurrection
To suck the poison from my life
Just like an existential cowboy villain
His words were balanced on my knife
Devil to pay, on judgement day
Would jesus strike me down if i should pray？
This cowboy song is all i know
To bring me back into your arms
Your distant sun, your shining light
You'll be my dog-star shining tonight
Every night
Every night
All my distances afar
This cowboy song, is all i know
To bring me back into your arms
This cowboy song, this cowboy life
I'll be your dog-star shining tonight
Dog-star...
16.We'll Be Together
I see me with you and all the things you do
Keep turning round and round in my mind
Forget the weather we should always be together
And any other thought is unkind
To have you with me i would swim the seven seas
I need you as my guide and my light
My love is a flame that burns in your name
We'll be together, we'll be together tonight
We'll be together, yeah
We'll be together, yeah
We'll be together, yeah
I see you with me and all i want to be
Is dancing here with you in my arms
Forget the weather we should always be together
I'll always be a slave to your charms
To have you with me i would swim the seven seas
I need you as my guide in my life
My love is a flame that burns in your name
We'll be together, we'll be together tonight
We'll be together, yeah
We'll be together, yeah
We'll be together, yeah
Call me baby
You can call me anything you want
Call me baby, call me, just call me
I see you with me and baby makes three
I see me with you and all the things you do
Forget the weather we should always be together
I need you as my guide and my light
My love is the flame that burns in your name
We'll be together, we'll be together tonight
17.When We Dance
If he loved you
Like i love you
I would walk away in shame
I'd move town
I'd change my name
When he watches you
When he counts to buy your soul
On your hand his golden rings
Like he owns a bird that sings
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
The priest has said my soul's salvation
Is in the balance of the angels
And underneath the wheels of passion
I keep the faith in my fashion
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
I'm still in love with you
[i'm gonna find a place to live
Give you all i've got to give]
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
If i could break down these walls
And shout my name at heaven's gate
I'd take these hands
And i'd destroy the dark machineries of fate
Cathedrals are broken
Heaven's no longer above
And hellfire's a promise away
I'd still be saying
I'm still in love
He won't love you
Like i love you
He won't care for you this way
He'll mistreat you if you stay
Come and live with me
We'll have children of our own
I would love you more than life
If you'll come and be my wife
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
I'm gonna love you more than life
If you will only be my wife
I'm gonna love you more than life
If you will only be my wife
I'm gonna love you night and day
I'm gonna try in every way
[i had a dream last night
I dreamt you were by my side
Walking with me baby
My heart was filled with pride
I had a dream last night]
