New beginnings
Got me grinning
Like a clown
New beginnings
Got those dark clouds
On the run
One step is all it takes
To get us on the way
To where we want to be
New beginnings
No more rain on
Tinseltown
New beginnings
The cost of living's
Coming down
One step is all it takes
To get us on the way
To where we want to be
One step is all it takes
To get us where we want to be
One step is all it takes
New beginning
New beginnings
Let's get going
New beginning
New beginnings
Up and running
New beginning
New beginnings
No more waiting
New beginning
New beginnings
Let's get going

Table Football

I was walkin' with a suitcase
It was full of bricks
I was tryin' to live my life
With a bag of tricks
Then my love you walked into my world
Yeah, yeah, yeah
All those lonely years
I can't count the cost
Talkin' to my beer
I was lost, lost, lost
Then my love you walked into my world
Yeah, yeah, yeah
In a bar somewhere in heaven
God is playin' table football
I am spinnin' round and round and round
Jigsaw puzzle in the stable
Jesus make a perfect picture please
In her arms I'm found, found, found
All I ever did before
Was try, try, try
Now that I'm not tryin'
I feel high, high, high
Ever since you walked into my world
Yeah, yeah, yeah
In a bar somewhere in heaven
God is playin' table football
I am spinnin' round and round and round
(and round and round)
Jigsaw puzzle in the stable
Jesus make a perfect picture please
In her arms I'm found, found, found

Girl on the train
It just stopped raining in my heart
Now your smile is part of me
Girl on the train
The station's empty but for us
Two lives of waiting for the late bus home
I knew that I loved you the moment I saw you
I've waited for you all my life
I'll hold you so tight
In my arms tonight
Girl on the train
It just stopped raining in my heart
Now your smile is part of me
Girl on the train
You're not alone anymore
We're going home together
I knew that I loved you the moment I saw you
I've waited for you all my life
I'll hold you so tight
In my arms tonight
Girl on the train
It just stopped raining in my heart
Now your smile is part of me
Found in each other's arms
Found in each other's arms
Found in each other's arms
Girl on the train

New York in a Film
03:00
|
|||
|
Well, I only saw you once
You were sitting on a passing train
We were travelling
To different destinations
But I think of you
Every now and then
And I wonder
How things might have been
Maybe I've walked
Maybe I breathe
In the same streets as you
Maybe some day
I'll sleep beneath
The same sheets as you
Wide eyed boy
New York in a film

Perfect Train
04:04
|
|||
|
I was waiting for
A perfect train
The perfect train
Never came
I was waiting for
A perfect train
The perfect train
Never came
On the platform
In the rain
Alone again
Waiting for the perfect
Waiting for the perfect
Waiting for the perfect

Push
03:46
|

|
Even as I picked up
Those shells on the beach
I knew in my heart
You wouldn't want them
From me
But I had to push
Push, push, push
Against the natural
Go against the flow
Wouldn't it be wonderful
Just to let go
Of that push
Push, push, push
Against the flow?
Even as I picked up
Those shells on the beach
I felt in my soul
You wouldn't want them
From me
But I had to push
Push, push, push
Against the natural
Go against the flow
Wouldn't it be wonderful
Just to let go
Of that push
Push, push, push
Against the flow?
Love can be
So hard to see
When you're blind to truth
You just push
Push, push, push
Against the natural
Go against the flow
Wouldn't it be wonderful
Just to let go
(I've got to let go)
Of that push
Push, push, push
Against the flow?
Wouldn't it be wonderful
Wouldn't it be wonderful
Just to let go?

C'mon kid
You're not so bad
Give yourself a break
The pain today
Is part of tomorrow's joy
C'mon kid
Lift your head
You are on the mend
Let yourself
Feel good again

I had a girl
She was my world
But I was a fool for love
I didn't have a clue how to behave myself
I paid the price
We see the starlight
After the star dies
Then it's too late
To thank the star
Let me see my starlight
Before my stars die
Before that dark night
I'll thank my stars
I had a friend
Mine till the end
But I closed the door on her
And turned to more important things, like money made
And prices paid
We see the starlight
After the star dies
Then it's too late
To thank the star
Let me see my starlight
Before my stars die
Before that dark night, darling
I'll thank
I'll thank my stars
My stars
Starlight

Just a little smile
No, I cannot tell a lie
Kate, Kathy, Katharine
Open the door
I don't know what's behind
Kate, Kathy, Katharine
Brave little bird
Fluttering heart
Chasing the cat into the dark
On your own
Sweet infinity
The trinity of you
The beauty you can't see
In your soul
May serenity
Clear the windows to your soul
In the mirror you will feel
Being whole

Let Love In
02:44

|
One day soon I'll look at love
I'll get it right and let it live
Inside my heart
Let love in
Let love in
Thank you for the love you poured
Into the empty cup of me
It filled me up
Let love in
Let love in
Dreaming of the love we lost
Unstrike the match and put it back
Into the box
Let love in
Let love in
Begin
Let love in

My 16th Postcard
02:39
|

|
The rainfall's like a phone call from an old friend
Saying "Your journey's over"
Meantime my deadline's the horizon
It's drawing closer
"Hey mister bartender, can I have another beer?
My glass is as empty as my heart
And I’ve come so far
Yes, my home’s so far
Yes, she lives so far from here"
And I just close my eyes and you're beside me
You say you miss me
Tell myself sweet lies and you're beside me
You start to kiss me
I just close my eyes and you are there
And love is in the air
Open up my eyes and you're not there
And it's raining outside, it's raining outside
It's raining outside, it’s raining outside
It’s raining outside

Stars in the Sky

Here's to all my friends
Here's to all my friends
To all they mean to me
And all I mean to them
The stars in the sky
Are their caring eyes
Watching over me at night
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
When I feel alone
When my life is frozen
I remember
I've been chosen by my friends
The stars in the sky
(stars in the sky, stars in the sky)
Are their caring eyes
Watching over me at night
Lighting up my darkest times
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
Stars in the sky
