Know what you're feeling
It's all so real to you
Through your glass ceiling
You can't see the sky
Your angels have fallen
Your faith reads like fiction now
Your demons keep calling
And you let them inside
Time is on your side
And you won't run and hide forever no
You're gonna let it go
Oh yeah
You're down upon your knees
But time is all you need to make it through
And you're gonna make it through
Oh yeah...take your time
The mirror is broken
Your pieces are everywhere
You gather them hoping
Just leave it behind
Your down upon your knees
But time is all you need to carry you
Don't let it bury you
Oh yeah...Take your time
You can't see it
But the pain that keeps dragging you down
Is the buried treasure you've found
Train lyrics - The Clarks
They grew up in the shadow of the armory
Land of freedom right out their back door
Brothers near the middle of the century
One of them had to go and fight the war
Somebody had to go and fight the war
And the train goes...
So he left upon the rails toward Ohiopyle
Youghiogheny flows around the bend
He told his mother someday he'd be coming home
The medals shine and the stars never end
But nobody counts on scars that never mend
And the train goes...
Cast iron wheels go hungry in the fields
Searching for that silver line a long, long way to go
Cast iron hearts go hungry for spare parts
Searching for a hand to hold on late night radio
He flew missions out of London into Germany
In letters she read once then locked away
With a picture of him smiling at the armory
The colors in that flag all washed away
It's just black and white and a hundred shades of gray
And the train goes...
That's the way it goes
Land of freedom right out their back door
Brothers near the middle of the century
One of them had to go and fight the war
Somebody had to go and fight the war
And the train goes...
So he left upon the rails toward Ohiopyle
Youghiogheny flows around the bend
He told his mother someday he'd be coming home
The medals shine and the stars never end
But nobody counts on scars that never mend
And the train goes...
Cast iron wheels go hungry in the fields
Searching for that silver line a long, long way to go
Cast iron hearts go hungry for spare parts
Searching for a hand to hold on late night radio
He flew missions out of London into Germany
In letters she read once then locked away
With a picture of him smiling at the armory
The colors in that flag all washed away
It's just black and white and a hundred shades of gray
And the train goes...
That's the way it goes
Maybe lyrics - The Clarks
Maybe I should turn and walk away
Maybe I should run, but I'll probably bow my head and pray
Maybe I'll search the lost and found
Maybe like two boxers bloodied, dizzied by the seventh round
Maybe circumstances make it easier to quit
Maybe in our circle, square pieces never fit
But I want you to know
I've never walked away from the things I've wanted
I've never walked away, but I think I'm going to
This time
I've never walked away from the things I've wanted
I've never walked away, but I think I'm going to
This time
Maybe I'll move back across town
Maybe in a week or two, we can talk, but not right now
Maybe your mind plays tricks on me
Maybe it's the drawer of letters everyday I read
Maybe these tears don't look so gallant
Maybe it's a chemical imbalance
Maybe it's the lack of sunlight
But I want you to know
Still I want you to know
Maybe it hurts below the skin
Maybe lessons finally sinking in
Maybe getting in the last word doesn't really mean you win
Maybe I should run, but I'll probably bow my head and pray
Maybe I'll search the lost and found
Maybe like two boxers bloodied, dizzied by the seventh round
Maybe circumstances make it easier to quit
Maybe in our circle, square pieces never fit
But I want you to know
I've never walked away from the things I've wanted
I've never walked away, but I think I'm going to
This time
I've never walked away from the things I've wanted
I've never walked away, but I think I'm going to
This time
Maybe I'll move back across town
Maybe in a week or two, we can talk, but not right now
Maybe your mind plays tricks on me
Maybe it's the drawer of letters everyday I read
Maybe these tears don't look so gallant
Maybe it's a chemical imbalance
Maybe it's the lack of sunlight
But I want you to know
Still I want you to know
Maybe it hurts below the skin
Maybe lessons finally sinking in
Maybe getting in the last word doesn't really mean you win
All The Things I Wanted lyrics - The Clarks
Somebody told me sadness makes a space
Inside your soul where wisdom takes its place
Somebody told me not to waste my turn
Everything goes up someday I'd like to learn to fly
I don't want to fall apart
Or hide behind love's broken door
I don't want to leave and wonder why
I don't want to walk away
Looking over my shoulder for
All the things I wanted in life
Someday I'm gonna have to mark my skin
To show you what I've seen and where I've been
Someday I'm gonna have to take my turn
Everything comes down someday I'd like to learn to fly
I don't want to fall apart
Or hide behind love's broken door
I don't want to leave and wonder why
I don't want to walk away
Looking over my shoulder for
All the things I wanted in life
Don't want to say goodbye
Inside your soul where wisdom takes its place
Somebody told me not to waste my turn
Everything goes up someday I'd like to learn to fly
I don't want to fall apart
Or hide behind love's broken door
I don't want to leave and wonder why
I don't want to walk away
Looking over my shoulder for
All the things I wanted in life
Someday I'm gonna have to mark my skin
To show you what I've seen and where I've been
Someday I'm gonna have to take my turn
Everything comes down someday I'd like to learn to fly
I don't want to fall apart
Or hide behind love's broken door
I don't want to leave and wonder why
I don't want to walk away
Looking over my shoulder for
All the things I wanted in life
Don't want to say goodbye
On Saturday lyrics - The Clarks
I'm gonna quit cause it's getting old
And it'll save my life or so I've been told
You see I got this thing that I like to do
But it seems to get between me and you
You won't understand if you gotta ask why
But if it's what you want I guess I'll try
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
I can't find my key I know where it went
Straight out the door with half the rent
But I got this song that I like to sing
You can keep the key I'll keep the ring
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
And she said it's not you I just need my space
I said it is me just say it to my face
All in time it will be fine
Just me, myself and I
Sublime
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
And she it is you and I found somebody new
She said that's not the color I wanted I said blue
And it'll save my life or so I've been told
You see I got this thing that I like to do
But it seems to get between me and you
You won't understand if you gotta ask why
But if it's what you want I guess I'll try
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
I can't find my key I know where it went
Straight out the door with half the rent
But I got this song that I like to sing
You can keep the key I'll keep the ring
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
And she said it's not you I just need my space
I said it is me just say it to my face
All in time it will be fine
Just me, myself and I
Sublime
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
And she it is you and I found somebody new
She said that's not the color I wanted I said blue
Superstar lyrics - The Clarks
You changed the world, you blinked your eyes
But you never said goodbye
You saved a life with words my friend
Believe your songs can mend
Never bought a drunk a drink
Never swam swim just to sink
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
Superstar, Superstar
You laugh and sing, the whole world cries
Say you're too young to die
Some luck can mend and bend your mind
Or just make you blind
Never speak just to lie
Never live just to die
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
Superstar, Superstar
There's a place in my mind you'll never find
At the end of a bar and a rhyme
Never gave a drunk a drink
Never cry just to blink
Never run just to fall
Never bleed just to scar
But you never said goodbye
You saved a life with words my friend
Believe your songs can mend
Never bought a drunk a drink
Never swam swim just to sink
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
Superstar, Superstar
You laugh and sing, the whole world cries
Say you're too young to die
Some luck can mend and bend your mind
Or just make you blind
Never speak just to lie
Never live just to die
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
Superstar, Superstar
There's a place in my mind you'll never find
At the end of a bar and a rhyme
Never gave a drunk a drink
Never cry just to blink
Never run just to fall
Never bleed just to scar
Hey You lyrics - The Clarks
If you're gonna jump
Hey you, hang on
If you feel like giving up
Hey you, hang on
I won't forget today
The sun is bright the sky is blue
The pain will go away
In another year or two
If you got a phone
Hey you, call home
If you got a voice
Hey you, rejoice
I won't forget today
The sun is bright the sky is blue
I won't forget to pray
Day is night the world is new
The pain will go away
In another year or two
In a hundred years or two
If you're gonna fly
Hey you, don't cry
You gotta live to die
Hey you, goodbye
Hey you, hang on
If you feel like giving up
Hey you, hang on
I won't forget today
The sun is bright the sky is blue
The pain will go away
In another year or two
If you got a phone
Hey you, call home
If you got a voice
Hey you, rejoice
I won't forget today
The sun is bright the sky is blue
I won't forget to pray
Day is night the world is new
The pain will go away
In another year or two
In a hundred years or two
If you're gonna fly
Hey you, don't cry
You gotta live to die
Hey you, goodbye
Boys Lie lyrics - The Clarks
She said, boys, they can't be trusted,
I get so disgusted
She says it over and over
You stuttered and you hesitated
From there it all just escalated
It happened over and over
And she said
Boys lie, like the rug under my feet
White lies, every breath between your teeth
Fine line, between love and alibis....Boys lie
He made me this one great promise
But call me the doubting Thomas
She thought it over and over
You'll be mine, you'll be fine
Oh, for the rest of time
He promised over and over
There's nothing that a woman does
just keep her faith because.
There's nothing that a man can say
won't make you walk away
Ain't nothing that he can't undo
a little nudge, and a broken smile
Just staring back at you
When it comes to being trusted
She said, you're so busted
But now that it's over, it's over
I took a poll and you were graded,
Boys were highly overrated
It happens over and over
I get so disgusted
She says it over and over
You stuttered and you hesitated
From there it all just escalated
It happened over and over
And she said
Boys lie, like the rug under my feet
White lies, every breath between your teeth
Fine line, between love and alibis....Boys lie
He made me this one great promise
But call me the doubting Thomas
She thought it over and over
You'll be mine, you'll be fine
Oh, for the rest of time
He promised over and over
There's nothing that a woman does
just keep her faith because.
There's nothing that a man can say
won't make you walk away
Ain't nothing that he can't undo
a little nudge, and a broken smile
Just staring back at you
When it comes to being trusted
She said, you're so busted
But now that it's over, it's over
I took a poll and you were graded,
Boys were highly overrated
It happens over and over
Wasting Time lyrics - The Clarks
At the end of motion
Commit me to the ocean
At the end of thinking
All I want is sinking
The worldly pain of life I leave behind
The give and take of love is not a crime
Like wasting time
It's kinda like a fever
My sleep is getting deeper
It's kinda like a sunset
Fade to black, but not yet
The earthly joy of sex and weed and wine
The high and low of life is not a crime
Like wasting time
It's time I started a fire
Not just a funeral pyre
It's time I get busy living
Not just taking but giving
And leave the pain and hurt and fear behind
And throw away the chains and free my mind
And open up my heart and let love shine
Wasting time
Say goodbye to lonely, Say goodbye to worry
Say goodbye to money, Say goodbye to hurry
Say goodbye
Commit me to the ocean
At the end of thinking
All I want is sinking
The worldly pain of life I leave behind
The give and take of love is not a crime
Like wasting time
It's kinda like a fever
My sleep is getting deeper
It's kinda like a sunset
Fade to black, but not yet
The earthly joy of sex and weed and wine
The high and low of life is not a crime
Like wasting time
It's time I started a fire
Not just a funeral pyre
It's time I get busy living
Not just taking but giving
And leave the pain and hurt and fear behind
And throw away the chains and free my mind
And open up my heart and let love shine
Wasting time
Say goodbye to lonely, Say goodbye to worry
Say goodbye to money, Say goodbye to hurry
Say goodbye
Twist My Arm lyrics - The Clarks
Blame it on the whiskey
Blamed it on your job
Blame the broken promises
And the words can cut so strong
Blame it on the doctors
Blame it on this song
Blame it on your childhood
But I knew all along
And I cried myself to sleep at night
Black and blue eyes, I could see
Thinking about leaving
Then I'd blame it all on me
And you twist my arm
Twist my arm
You shout about the money
And you'd shout late at night
And you'd shout about my mother
You know you're wasting my time
I won't tell you that for fear of my life
I could never figure out
The gifts you bring me hours
After you pushed me to the ground
And you twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
Don't twist it, no don't twist it
I prayed that you were leaving
Prayed I could turn and run
Prayed I had the strength
Closed my eyes, I shot your gun
You twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
Blamed it on your job
Blame the broken promises
And the words can cut so strong
Blame it on the doctors
Blame it on this song
Blame it on your childhood
But I knew all along
And I cried myself to sleep at night
Black and blue eyes, I could see
Thinking about leaving
Then I'd blame it all on me
And you twist my arm
Twist my arm
You shout about the money
And you'd shout late at night
And you'd shout about my mother
You know you're wasting my time
I won't tell you that for fear of my life
I could never figure out
The gifts you bring me hours
After you pushed me to the ground
And you twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
Don't twist it, no don't twist it
I prayed that you were leaving
Prayed I could turn and run
Prayed I had the strength
Closed my eyes, I shot your gun
You twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
This Old House Is Burning Down Tonight lyrics - The Clarks
This old house is burning down tonight
I'm gonna watch it burn
I'm gonna stand out in the road
This old house is burning down tonight
Front porch, back door, well-worn wooden floor
All agree that since you're gone
The TV, sofa bed, brand new stereo
Just can't seem to get along
They'll all be ashes by the dawn
Your Beatles, my Stones, your My Aim Is True
Staying up late every night
With your cigarettes, Jim Beam, gallon of gasoline
Did someone say they need a light
You'll see my love for you burns bright
So send your sheriff to arrest me
He'll have to cross the county line
I'll get the devil to defend me
I was only burnin' what was mine
Black shirt, black boots, favorite pair of blue jeans
I saved my coat, I saved my hat
But your white dress, gold band, silver frame and photograph
Stayed behind the welcome mat
I never really liked your cat
This old house is burning down tonight
All Halloween orange and chimney red
This old house is burning down tonight
You're gonna say My God! when you see it on the news
And by the time the ceiling hits the ground
I'll smoke my tires and leave this town
I'm gonna watch it burn
I'm gonna stand out in the road
This old house is burning down tonight
Front porch, back door, well-worn wooden floor
All agree that since you're gone
The TV, sofa bed, brand new stereo
Just can't seem to get along
They'll all be ashes by the dawn
Your Beatles, my Stones, your My Aim Is True
Staying up late every night
With your cigarettes, Jim Beam, gallon of gasoline
Did someone say they need a light
You'll see my love for you burns bright
So send your sheriff to arrest me
He'll have to cross the county line
I'll get the devil to defend me
I was only burnin' what was mine
Black shirt, black boots, favorite pair of blue jeans
I saved my coat, I saved my hat
But your white dress, gold band, silver frame and photograph
Stayed behind the welcome mat
I never really liked your cat
This old house is burning down tonight
All Halloween orange and chimney red
This old house is burning down tonight
You're gonna say My God! when you see it on the news
And by the time the ceiling hits the ground
I'll smoke my tires and leave this town
Inside You lyrics - The Clarks
Will you walk with me
Will you talk with me
Take my hand let fate decide
We'll go out for a moonlight ride
We can take our time
Through the clouds we'll climb
Hurry up don't make me wait
Tomorrow might just be too late
And it all comes down to what we're feeling now
And I know what I see when I look into your eyes
I'm inside you...And you don't even know it
Deep inside you...And it's time to show it
Deep inside you
If it feels alright
We can drive all night
The wind will whisper in our ears
Collecting stars like souvenirs
And the sun will rise
Under painted skies
Tell me we don't have to wait
Tomorrow might just be too late
And it all comes down to what we're feeling now
And I know what I see when I look into your eyes
I'm inside you...And you don't even know it
Deep inside you...And it's time to show it
Deep inside you
Will you talk with me
Take my hand let fate decide
We'll go out for a moonlight ride
We can take our time
Through the clouds we'll climb
Hurry up don't make me wait
Tomorrow might just be too late
And it all comes down to what we're feeling now
And I know what I see when I look into your eyes
I'm inside you...And you don't even know it
Deep inside you...And it's time to show it
Deep inside you
If it feels alright
We can drive all night
The wind will whisper in our ears
Collecting stars like souvenirs
And the sun will rise
Under painted skies
Tell me we don't have to wait
Tomorrow might just be too late
And it all comes down to what we're feeling now
And I know what I see when I look into your eyes
I'm inside you...And you don't even know it
Deep inside you...And it's time to show it
Deep inside you
So You Can Sleep At Night lyrics - The Clarks
If I had a dollar
I'd buy a house where we could live
Caring for each other
Just a place to call our home
And if we just knew wrong from right
We would not hurt we would not fight
Dream sweet dreams all through the night
Until the morning comes
If I had someone to love
I would not push I would not shove
I'd never know what lonely was
Because I'd never be alone
And if I had a hand to hold
I'd hold it tight until I grew old
And listen to your stories told
They keep me hanging on
If I had a magic charm
It would protect you from all harm
There'd be no sirens to alarm
We could stay here every day
And if I were a super hero
Good guys all the villains zero
I'd save you from all that is evil
So you can sleep at night
Love Is What You Need lyrics - The Clarks
Until we meet again
I'll think of you my friend
If thoughts are what you need
Until we say hello
You know I know you know
I'm down here on my knees
Let's give it one more try
Never say goodbye
Your hand it holds the key
Love is what you need
Until we meet for good
I'll take these wires and this wood
And tell you how I feel
Until we stand alone
Face to face and no more phone
Tell me this is real
Let's give it one more chance
Hold tight when we dance
Your eyes they hold the key
Until we meet again
I won't think about the end
Have a smoke and have a drink
Until we find a way
I'll keep singing about that day
I never cared what people think
Love is what you need
I'll think of you my friend
If thoughts are what you need
Until we say hello
You know I know you know
I'm down here on my knees
Let's give it one more try
Never say goodbye
Your hand it holds the key
Love is what you need
Until we meet for good
I'll take these wires and this wood
And tell you how I feel
Until we stand alone
Face to face and no more phone
Tell me this is real
Let's give it one more chance
Hold tight when we dance
Your eyes they hold the key
Until we meet again
I won't think about the end
Have a smoke and have a drink
Until we find a way
I'll keep singing about that day
I never cared what people think
Love is what you need
