THE
GUN ISN'T LOADED
'I can see you move across the meadow
Through the woods
I'm gonna be with you one day
I can see you through the shady trees
As gentle breezes blow the autumn leaves
around
I'll put a gun up to your head as you
undress
And you can guess but you just won't know
I'm the only one who understands
You look at life and see it balanced on a
knife's edge
I know the gun isn't loaded
If you knew the gun wasn't loaded too
I go walking when the wind and rain
Are tumbling down, tumbling down
I go cold while clutching no one's hand
Oh but what can I do
I still want you
I tried so hard to make you stay
And now it's time to make you pay
I know the gun isn't loaded
If you knew the gun wasn't loadedGLASTONBURY
REVISITED
'Glastonbury
evening sun
From where have all the angels come
We could hear an angels choir
As we sang round an evening fire
A yellow moon lit up the sky
And left me happy enough to cry
Glastonbury we got high
As heaven's rain clouds passed us by
Where have all the angels gone
Now that all the acid's done
We made love under the sun
We're back to nature on the farm
We were higher than the sky
As heaven's rain clouds passed us by
We could hear an angels choir
I swear we couldn't get no higher
Where have all the angels gone
Now that all the acid's done
Who knows where we will go
At the end of this rainbow
Glastonbury's golden sun
Will shine its love on everyone
Where have all the angels gone
Now that all the acid's done
We made love under the sun
And the whole world
Feels beautiful today '
BABY, YOU'RE SO FREE
'I'm
flying, watch me now
She wore a T Shirt proclaiming love will
reign
I touched her hand and I felt the same
Hey liberation what's that game
She fell in love with a cousin of my
friend
Who said he'd be there till the end
He was a lying hippy fiend
A vegetarian and you can trust them
Baby, you're so free
You don't understand
What it is that you mean to me
Liberation, freedom for the girl in
trendy flares
And bendy perms
Those neon lights in discotheque's
Safe sex on the pill but it doesnt
always work'
REVOLUTION (IN THE
SUMMERTIME?)
'We don't need a revolution in the
summertime
We don't need a revolution anytime
What we need is someone to believe in
Like a God to fall out of the sky
What we don't need is a revolution
That will blow our minds away
Yeah away, tomorrow or today
You can sell me Darwin's theory
Evolution got me here to where I am
But I'd believe in anyone who promised me
The sun would shine today, yeah today
Or any other day
We can pray for the sun
Let it shine on everyone
Sunshine brings love'
HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEWS
TODAY?
Can't you feel the danger
As Adie brings the news
Children taught to kill are
Too young to know their views
I didn't really like her style
But when I looked in her eyes
Have you heard the news today?
It's all bad as usual
What did I do yesterday?
I prayed for all the ill
That dawn would bring them safety
And evening lose it's chill
I can't hold back
There's something wrong
I've seen the world through the eyes of
TV
I've seen the lies through the eyes of
TV'
SOMETIME
'You
said love was a beautiful thing
Something clicked and I started to think
I'm not ready to take that step
You're moving too fast for me
I'm not saying that you're not nice
But I'm not ready for ties that bind
So let's not buy the rings just yet
Let's live for today
Sometime
I may change my mind
Until I do
I'll be right here with you
I like the smell of lemon and lime
I like pretty women
I like good wine
Watching sailboats on the waves
And lazing on the beach
We'll sit and watch the Dolphin's swim
And pray they'll never be extinct
But let's not buy the rings just yet
Let's live for today

VALUE
OF LIFE
'When
you walk over a bridge in the dark
Can you feel it moving
Feel it swaying
Like the wind through the trees
Put your head in the hangman's noose
Feel the value of life
Tighten up the rope till you almost choke
Feel the value of life
When all the world's asleep
I lie and stare at starry skies
While other people sleep
I lie awake and wonder why I'm hereMELANIE
'I
think Melanies great but I miss you
I hate living this way, without you
Well I think Melanies great but I
miss you
Flying out to New York to be with you
Customs at JFK wouldn't let me through
They put me back on the plane
What can I do?
They say you need a reason
A someone to believe in
I said my only reason was you
Yeah I've got a reason
To breathe out and to breathe in
I only wish that I could get through
I was unsure if I wanted to stay
I never should've let you go
All I know is I need you today
I don't know how to let you know'
THE PAIN INSIDE
'I
used to believe in love
I used to believe it would last forever
Till you stuck a knife in my heart
By making me choose between love and art
And I'm never coming home
Until the pain inside has gone
I used to believe in faith
But I put my faith in the wrong person
Now I leave my faith at the gate
I'm up to my knees and the man won't wait
And my friends don't want me home
Until the pain inside has gone
Hold my hand, talk to me
Try to understand the way that I feel
Cause I'm never coming home
Until the pain inside is gone
Hold my hand, walk with me
To a distant land, a place where I can
feel
That my friends will want me home
When the pain inside has gone'
THE CHARM
'I've
been searching high and low
But I don't know where you are
I've been looking under stones
But you threw the stones too far
Take it from me
You're the one who holds my key
You're the one who has the charm
I'm trying
You're a perfumed rose in summer
When my allergies are strong
So I play the waiting game
Until winter comes along
Take it from me, you're the one who holds
the key
You're the one who has the charm
THE LOSER
'You
treat me like a fool
You think that you're so cool
But you broke all the rules
You're the loser
What makes it so bad
Was losing what we had
You're not coming back
You're the loser
Having gone through all this pain
I wouldn't go through that again
What makes it so bad
Is losing what we had
You're not coming back
You're the loser
Walking home one day
I pulled a gun and blew you away
In my mind, in my mind
You think you're so cool
But you turned out the fool
You broke all the rules
You're the loser'
YOU'VE GOT ME
'Come
around and stay a while
We'll talk about whatever's on your mind
I believe in you my child
I care for you, and when the chips are
down
You've got me
When something's going wrong
You've got me
Whatever's going on
You've got me
When something's going wrong
Whatever's going on in your mind
If life becomes a heavy load and weighs
you down
Just call and I'll come around
I can share that heavy load
And help you find the strength to carry
on'
EMILY DARLING
'Emily
darling, pretty are you
You came along and I fell in love with
you too
We were really out there
It was more than holding hands
Emily told me her love was free
Then when she left
She stole a big part of me
We were really out there
Come home and hold my hand
MORNING SUN
'I
wake to the morning sun
And the morning sun is you'
