1.5th Season
5TH SEASON - Paul Weller
A storm is raging, inside my head
The wind is howling, such thoughts of death
Why am I so lost and confused？
Can't find the reason, for feeling blue
There's so much I can't explain
Hope this season changes soon.
The lightning strikes and the mountains fall
The sea's come crashing, against it all
Hang on tight, in the tides of change
And get your bearings from those still sane
There's so much I've yet to feel
Hope the seasons change me too.
The serpent tangles, in the lion's claw
A cloud of darkness, hangs over all
As fires soar, in search of sky
So blow embers, like fire flies
Hoping love is where they'll lie,
And the season change us too.
THE WEAVER - Paul Weller
Can you put a smile back on - all these different faces
Of all these people from - such different places
And if you can succeed - what then will you achieve
With a different tune to play - you've been saving for a rainy
day
Will you heal the scar that's on - the years been wasted
The tears spent on the past - just filling spaces
Or is love forever gone, banished to a smaller part
Hide behind your wall and start - to get to the very heart
An' if you wanna shoot the moon - make sure that you know why
Careful, fly too soon - better let someone else try
I'm the weaver of your dreams - I get rid of your bogeyman
I'm here to smash the shell you're under
An' get you into another thing -
I'm the weaver of your dreams - I put paid to the rocketman
I'm here to break the spell you're under
And get you started with another plan
Could you put a kiss back on - the lips so twisted
Waiting for the chance to start - dipping into wishes
Or is love forever gone - banished to a smaller part
Hide behind your wall and start - to get to the very heart
And in the midst of the darkest night
Think of me and hold me tight
So that I might live to see
All the weaving of my dreams.
2.Above The Clouds
ABOVE THE CLOUDS - Paul Weller
Autumn blew its leaves at me
Threatening winter as I walked
Summer always goes so quick
Barely stopping like my thoughts
Which dip and spin and change so fast
I have to wonder - Will I last
Through the windows of a train
I caught reflection of a paper cup
Hanging small in a pale blue sky
Never knowing which way's up
Above the clouds, what's to be found
I have to wonder - Will I be around
As my anger shouts - At my own self-doubt
So a sadness creeps - Into my dreams
When your scared of living - but afraid to die
I get scared of giving - and I must find the faith to beat it
I must be me that's rushing by
Time just lingers on the wind
Whistling through my open fears
I wonder what it's going to bring
Above the clouds - what's to be found
I have to wonder - oh, will I be around
Run and hide, run and hide - I catch the sail at the evening
tide.
3.Amongst Butterflies
AMONGST BUTTERFLIES - Paul Weller
The sunny sand we ran along
Everyday began upon
The summer's kiss of love and adventure
And every dune that we fell into
Left a mark upon us too
Etched forever as a moment we'd remember
And we'd remember
The empty woods where we played
Every hour of every day
The holidays went on forever
And in the woods was a soldier's tomb
The ghost of which looked over you
And God was there amongst the trees
We felt his whisper in the summer's breeze
And every night and every day
I learnt to love it in a special way
As I remember - what it's like to walk amongst butterflies
4.Bitterness Rising
BITTERNESS RISING - Paul Weller
Unfit to live in - just about fit to burst
Like the banks of a swollen river
As bitterness does its worst
Working on your feelings - eating you all up
But you have to shed that shit to move on
And let love carry you on up -
# (It's just) bitterness rising - taking you off
Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off
Unfair to give in - and never change its course
If you have the choice before you
You must take it with a force
Or the past will take you - keep you from the truth
As bitterness rises - from the ashes of your youth
#
Moments in time - finding the space - to be what'cha wanna be
The things you never got - life you never had - the dreams
you once dreamed
Waiting your time - finding the space - to be what'cha wanna be
-
just be!
Or the past will take you - keep you from the truth
As bitterness rises - from the ashes of your youth
#
5.Bullrush
BULL-RUSH - Paul Weller
In a momentary lapse of my condition
That sent me tumbling down into a deep dispair
Lost and dazed so I had no real recollection
Until the rain cleared the air
Whe you wake to find that everything has left you
And the clothes you wear belong to someone else
See your shadow chasing off towards the shore line
Drifting into emptiness
There's a bullrushes outside my window
And their leaves whisper words in the breeze
Well, tomorrow I'll walk to the harbour
Catch the first boat that's coming in
Like a child to small to reach the front door handle
Or maybe just to scared to know what I would find
Now I feel I'm strong enough to take the slow ride
Not knowing when I will arrive
I do believe I'm going home
'Cause I don't call this place my own
I'm missing what I had
Happy times and sad
More than I ever thought could be
6.Clues
CLUES - Paul Weller
I'll meet 'cha on a bus at dawn
An open top one if it's warm
And if the flowers are in bloom
I'll lose myself to you
I'll be whistling down a street
You'll hear our footsteps start to meet
Then the craziness begins
An' like chalk and cheese
We'll shoot the breeze
Heading up west - in an open top deck
Trying to remember just what for
Then we'll talk for hours and hours
About nothing much at all
With your long hair falling down - in curl after curl
And I too shy to ask
What I really want to do
Racked, with my own self-doubt
I stumble and fall
Like a fool in love
My mind in the air - heaven knows where
Yeah, heading up west - in an open top deck
Trying to remember just what for
7.Ends Of The Earth
ENDS OF THE EARTH - Paul Weller
Once I had a love so sweet, I remember -
She's follow me to the ends of the earth -
＆ I'd let her
And everyday was like a fairy tale
Cuts me up inside to think how I failed -
I see now so well
She gave me everything she had for the better
Gave me the key to her soul - ＆ I let her
Once I had a love so sweet, I remember -
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth -
＆ I'd let her
And every day was like a picture book
The look of love was in her eyes -
＆ how she'd look -
But me, I just took
A fellow traveller with nothing planned
Save loving me the way I am
Expecting nothing in return -
Through her I got to learn
Too late for me to see - I measured out my destiny
Too late for me to know and where I lost her -
I don't know
Once I had a love so sweet, I remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth -
＆ I let her -
Yes I let her - let her slip away
8.Everything Has A Price To Pay
EVERYTHING HAS A PRICE TO PAY - Paul Weller
Here is the tune I've been writing -
It's been so long in the making
I hope it's worth all the waiting
Not expect it all for free
Everything has one ending -
Everything has it's day
There's no use in pretending -
Yes, everything has a price to pay
You just asked me, what I'm feeling
Should I tell you？ Nothing is for free
Can't you see - can't you see？
Everything has a price to pay
Everything that I know is -
Hanging on my melody
Everything has an ending
Yes, everything has a price to pay
You just aksed me, what I'm feeling
Should I tell you？ Nothing is for free
Can't you see - can't you see？
Everything has a price to pay
Here is the tune I've been writing -
It's been so long in the making
And I hope it's worth all the waiting
Yes, everything has a price to pay
9.Fly On The Wall
FLY ON THE WALL - Paul Weller
Where angels meet - Their words are whispers
As sea touches shore - the clouds move swiftly -
and to me so small
compared to it all
like a fly on the wall
As pieces sweep - their meaning is still no clearer
And under my feet - theres nothing to stop my own free fall -
Down and down I go
And compared to it all
I'm a fly on the wall
Our children sleep - resting our hopes and wishes
The night in between - I'm catching my scope, just fishing -
And in spite of it all -
I look at me so small
And compared to it all
I'm a fly on the wall
10.Foot Of The Mountain
FOOT OF THE MOUNTAIN - Paul Weller
Like a dream on the ocean - always drifting away
And I can't catch up
She just skips away - on the tide
Sometimes a great notion - can lead you astray
So weak to devotion - so strong to desire
Chorus
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
Take me off on your sail boat ride
Come on now angels are on your side
But she slips away - oh and never stays
Like mercury gliding - a silver teardrop that falls
And I can't hold on - through my fingers she's gone
At the foot of the mountain - such a long way to climb
How will I ever get up there - though I know I must try
Chorus
Like a dream a dream on the ocean - always drifting away
And I can't catch up - she just skips away, on the tide
She just slips away - on the tide
Skips away - as she glides
11.Hung Up
HUNG UP - Paul Weller
Hidden in the back seat of my head
Someplace I can't remember where
I found it just by coincidence
And now I'm all hung up again
Just like a soldier from the past
Who won't be told it's over yet
Refusing to lay down his gun
He'll keep on fighting 'til his war is won
He's gotta hurt someone
He'll keep on fighting 'til his war is won
Waiting for the moment - keep on looking for a sign
Extraordinary - trying to cease the war inside
Hidden in the backseat of my head
Someplace I can't remember where
I found it just by coincidence
And now I'm all hung up again
And now I'm all hung up again
12.I Didnt Mean To Hurt You
I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU
I've heard them all talking
I guess you have too
Adding flickers to the flame
How I've treated you
I take the blame
But let me say - that they don't know
They really don't know - the fools don't know
That I really didn't mean to hurt you
Oh darling, I didn't mean to hurt you
Please believe me when I say
That I didn't mean to hurt you girl
Whatever they tell you
There's more I could say
Lending motion to the wheel
How you built me up
When I was falling down
But who knows - you just might find
Just might find - that I'm just your kind
And I really didn't mean to hurt you
And tho' I was looking there for something
Some things have no meaning
While I was looking there for something
Everything had gone
And soon as I looked; I lived
And soon as I lived; I wondered
13.Into Tomorrow
INTO TOMORROW - Paul Weller
Into the mists of time and space
Where we have no say over date and place
Don't get embarrasses if it happens a lot
That you don't know how you started or where you're gonna stop
And if at time it seems insane - all the tears in searching
Turning all your joy to pain - in pursuit of learning
Buy a dream and hideaway - can't escape the sorrow
Your mojo will have no effect - as we head into tomorrow
Round and round like a twisted wheel
Spinning in an attempt to find the feel
Find the path that will help us find
A feeling of control over lives and minds
Into the stars and always up
Drinking from a broken cup
Whose golden gleam is fading fast
Praying that it has not past
Into tomorrow
14.Kosmos
KOSMOS - Paul Weller
Life's complexities trouble your rise
As you attempt to ascend into the high
Is there nowhere else left to run
But to the Kosmos - men gaze - to look for heaven
Flying high - never come down
Flying high - don't know how to come down
Take a ride into the soon
Be the first one on the moon
Take a slide - come back to earth
But it's the Kosmos - men dare - to look for something
Flying high - never come down
Flying high - don't know how to come down
No time to spare - destiny is here
No time to lose - better if we choose
Less time to share - people stop and stare
To look for hope above the clouds - to look for heaven
A world away, a million light years
That's how far destruction seems
Now our dreams are sad, slow creatures
Dying to know - who am I？ - what am I？ - where am I to go？
15.Moon On Your Pyjamas
MOON ON YOUR PYJAMAS - Paul Weller
Was that a shooting star I saw
It's rare for me to make a wish at all
Because I feel that I can only hope
These dangerous times, we are barely afloat
And I hope the world will heal itself
and our worn out souls along with it
So that you will get the chance to say
That you have seen a better day
You've got the moon on your pyjamas and the stars in your eyes
Sweet child, you're a dream in disguise
Angels on silver strings, hang from above
Let love and laughter shine wherever you go...
Through your new eyes I've come to see
How beautiful my life can be
And I'll keep this wish this time, I think
And blow it in with a wish upon your head
And I hope the world will heal itself
And our worn out souls along with it
So that you'll get the chance to see
A summer's blue sky behind green trees
16.Remember How We Started
REMEMBER HOW WE STARTED - Paul Weller
Remember how we started - on a summer's night
Too drunk to care about what might
You turned my head to kiss your lips
Time stood still as my heart skipped a beat
And if I could - I'd take your hand
Adn lead you off back to the past
I know a trail - a secret mile
And better to cry than never smile
The moonlight shining through your flowered curtains
I think we knew it was us for certain
And just the thing that we hoped for
Was building up into something more
Oh, I've been searching, searching
Trying to find the words to say
Oh, I've been searching, searching
Trying to get back to the love we made - yesterday
Remember how we started - on a summer's night
Too young to know about what might
And just as well - as we might not
Of ever started on this course at all
17.Round Round
ROUND ＆ ROUND - Paul Weller
Only surface - just skin deep
When words fly like angels around your feet
Need the something - feel real inside
Cling together - as together we ride
Round and round and up and down
Here we go in this moment in time
Round and round and up and down
Here we go again -
Movin' up to collect our prizes
Sinkin' fast into life's surprises
Win today but lose tomorrow
Lending what we just can't borrow
Time around us - time to live
Getting back everything we give
Freedoms truth is the only truth
To save the day and pave the route
Be the first one on your block
To know the time and own a clock
Whose hands point upwards to the stars
Tell us if our future's far
18.Shadow Of The Sun
SHADOW OF THE SUN - Paul Weller
Do you still feel the same way about it
Like you always said you would
Or has time re-written everything
Like you never dreamt it could
Remember when we wanted to fly forever
On a magic carpet ride
Well forever seems a long time
Cutting us down in size - no matter how hard we try
And I could see all I had done
Just chasing dreams across the fields - in the shadow of the sun
Once upon a time I might have told you
But now nothing seems that plain
However much we're changing
There are some things the same - and those same things still say
And I could see all I had done
Just chasing dreams across the fields - in the shadow of the sun
And I plan to have it all while I'm still young
And chase the fields across my dreams - in the shadow of the sun
In the shadow of the sun
19.Sunflower
SUNFLOWER - Paul Weller
I don't care how long this lasts
We have no future - we have no past
I write this now while I'm in control
I'll choose the words and how the melody goes -
Along winding streets, we walked hand in hand
And how I long for that sharp wind
To take my breath away again
I'd run my fingers through your hair
Hair like a wheatfield, I'd run through
That I'd run through -
And I miss you so - I miss you so
No you're gone, I feel so alone
I miss you so
I'd send you a flower - a sunflower bright
While you cloud my days, messing up my nights
And all the way up to the top of your head
Sunshower kisses, I feld we had
And I miss you so - I miss you so
All I gotta do, is think of you - and I miss you so
Baby I'm afraid to say why - I miss you so
CAN YOU HEAL US (HOLY MAN) - Paul Weller
Crystal words, that hang so fine - But none will stop us falling
Pulling faster all the time - Powerless to warnings
If you feel the hand of God - Can you guide it holy man？
But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement
Still saying! Daddy don't weep, Momma don't cry
Everybody gets their time
Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for
you
Split the Father and the Son - Hand words to ease them
In the other is a gun - baptized by fear, and
If you have the hand of God - Can you heal us, holy man？
But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement
Still saying! Hang on tight, hang on strong
How much longer can this go on
But don't be sad, don't be blue - It's one more thing set to
confuse
Daddy don't weep, Momma don't cry
Every fear must have its time
Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for
you.
Can you bring the hand of God？
Can you stop the killing？
Get us back to hope and love - Never more be needed -
Still saying! Bloods gone bad, bad to worse
Worse to bad and back again
But don't be sad, don't be blue - It's one more thing sent to
confuse
Momma don't weep, Daddy don't cry
Every fear must have its time
Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for
you.
WILD WOOD - Paul Weller
High tide - mid afternoon
People fly by, in the traffics boom
Knowing - where you're blowing
Getting to where, you should be going.
Don't let, them get you down
Making you feel, guilty about
Golden rain, bring you riches
All the good things - you deserve now.
Climbing, forever trying
Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood
Now theres, no justice
There's only yourself - that you can trust in
And I said - high tide, mid afternoon
People fly by, in the traffics boom
Knowing - just where you're blowing
Getting to where, you should be going.
Day by day, your world fades away
Waiting to feel - all the dreams that say
Golden rain will bring you riches
All the good things - you deserve now - and I say
Climbing, forever trying
Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood
ALL THE PICTURES ON THE WALL - Paul Weller
And all the pictures on the wall
Serve only to remind you of it all
The wasted days we could have lived
Now we're left with nothing left to give
There was a time I really loved you
But when that was I just can't say
As all the memories merge into one
As each day becomes each day
The clock hands ticking on the wall
Are just reminders of it all
The wasted days we could have lived
Now we're left with nothing left to give
We used to meet each others' eyes
And that's all we'd have to say
Now we don't talk that much at all
The further our eyes seem to stray
And in a funny kind of way
This empty room was full one day
Full of love that we once shared - now it all looks so bare
The silent walls whose cracks I feel -
But is there room to let the hatred heal？
HAS MY FIRE REALLY GONE OUT？
And when I open my eyes - will it then be morning？
First rays of summer sun - coming down and shining
And if I open my heart and say all that you would want
Hope, faith and all I believe will be there to greet me
And if I open my head, remember all that I said
Hey baby, what will you find - coming down to meet you？
A lot of words but no one talking
I don't want no part of that
Something real is what I'm seeking
One clear voice in the wilderness
And put an end to all your doubts -
Has my fire really, really gone out？
COUNTRY - Paul Weller
I know a place not far from here
Where life's sweet perfume fills the air
And if you want, I'll take you there
If you want, I'll take you there
Into the light out of the dark
Where only love can heal your heart
And if you want I'll make a start
If you want - I'll make a start
This place I say, half hour away
Is that so far to go？ - so near
And further on we'll find the time
And lose the discontent we feel - that we feel
I feel the time we've yet to reach
Is not yet within our own belief
But I feel sure that time has come
If it goes on at all - if it goes on and on - if it goes on and
on
I know a place not far from here
Where life's sweet perfume fills the air
And if you want we'll lay a while there
If you want, we'll lay a while there
20.The Strange Museummick Talbot
THE STRANGE MUSEUM - Paul Weller／Mick Talbot
Come on in - admissions free
I won't refuse - those who wanna see
Bring your loved ones, those you hold dear
Bring them all - there's no restrictions here
But don't look for blame as an easy escape
There's nothing on show - that isn't your shame
So come on in - it's a small price to pay
And I won't refuse, those who've lost their way
Said it's strange -
21.This Is No Time
THIS IS NO TIME - Paul Weller
This is no time for fumbling
This is no time for turning down
This is no age for wondering
All too much we stumble and fall
we stumble and fall
This is no time for mumbling
This is no time for forgetting your lines
This is no time for tumbling
All too much we stumble and fall
we stumble and fall
This is no time for dreaming
When you sleep you wake to find
That something or someone
Has stolen your precious time
As you start to climb - Oh, as you start to climb - yeah
This is no time to go missing
Though it is the time we'd like to most
This is no age to go fishing
All too soon it will be us getting caught
as we stumble and fall
Too weak to crawl!
22.Uh Huh Oh Yeh
UH HUH OH YEH - Paul Weller
I took a trip down boundry lane
Try an' find myself again
At least a part I left somewhere
Buried under a hedgrow near
A lazy bridge on a hot afternoon
Water glistening while it plays a tune
Cloudburst on a rainy day
Wiping all my sleep away
Uh huh oh yeh - uh huh oh yeh
Always there to confuse and fool you
And in my mind I saw the place
As each memory returned to trace
Dear Reminders of who I am
The very roots upon which I stand
And there they were for all to see
My long, lost, used-to-be's
And all the dreams I had to dream
Were really something - not make believe
A lazy tree by a wishing well
I wish now that I could tell
If all the dreams I used to dream
Are really something, not make believe!
