water boys - the whole of the moon
I pictured a rainbow
you held it in your hands
I had flashes
but you saw the plan
I wondered out in the world for years
while you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
you saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!
You were there in the turnstiles
with the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
too far
Too soon
you saw the whole of the moon!
I was grounded
while you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truth
you cut through lies
I saw the rain dirty valley
you saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
you saw the whole of the moon!
I spoke about wings
you just flew
I wondered I guessed, and I tried
you just knew
I sighed
but you swooned
I saw the crescent
you saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!
With a torch in your pocket
and the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
and you know how it feels
To reach too high
too far
Too soon
you saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!
Unicorns and cannonballs,
palaces and piers,
Trumpets, towers, and tenements,
wide oceans full of tears,
Flag, rags, ferryboats,
scimitars and scarves,
Every precious dream and vision
underneath the stars
You climbed on the ladder
with the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
blazing your trail
Too high
too far
Too soon
you saw the whole of the moon!
water boys - red army blues
When I left my home and my family
my mother said to me
"Son, it's not how many Germans you kill that counts
It's how many people you set free!"
So I packed my bags
brushed my cap
Walked out into the world
seventeen years old
Never kissed a girl
Took the train to Voronezh
that was as far as it would go
Changed my sacks for a uniform
bit my lip against the snow
I prayed for mother Russia
in the summer of '43
And as we drove the Germans back
I really believed
That God was listening to me
We howled into Berlin
tore the smoking buildings down
Raised the red flag high
burnt the reichstag brown
I saw my first American
and he looked a lot like me
He had the same kinda farmer's face
said he'd come from some place called Hazzard, Tennessee
Then the war was over
my discharge papers came
Me and twenty hundred others
went to Stettiner for the train
Kiev! said the commissar
from there your own way home
But I never got to Kiev
we never came by home
Train went north to the Taiga
we were stripped and marched in file
Up the great siberian road
for miles and miles and miles and miles
Dressed in stripes and tatters
in a gulag left to die
All because Comrade Stalin was scared that
we'd become too westernized!
Used to love my country
used to be so young
Used to believe that life was
the best song ever sung
I would have died for my country
in 1945
But now only one thing remains
but now only one thing remains
But now only one thing remains
but now only one thing remains
The brute will to survive!
water boys - too close to heaven
All your trouble will be over, so will your pain
you are gonna see those blue skies bursting right through the rain
The higher you climb, the lower you fall
You got too close to heaven, that's all
Now in the morning you can cry all you want to
- we'll spend the whole day weeping
Right now I want you to lay down your weary head
and let me see you sleeping
You've been walking around baby, inflamed and ashamed
feeling like you're one inch tall
You got too close to heaven, that's all
You're way too hard on yourself baby
- you got some pretty basic things wrong
You wouldn't believe me if I told you why I wrote you into this song
You're looking at your heart baby, and you're calling it black
but like Icarus and like Saul
You got too close to heaven, that's all
Now I know this hurt you're feeling - I've felt these same things too
I've got spaces way down deep inside of me that are just the same as you
You wanna wrap your arms around your head, turn out the lights
and roll yourself into a ball
You got too close to heaven, that's all
Are you blinded by the brilliance ?
Are you dazzled by the Light ?
Why is it I see nothing but emptiness in your tired beaten eyes
that once were bright
I know you just can't help but run when you hear that sweet voice call
You got too close to heaven, that's all
I walked a mile for you baby
so won't you smile for me baby ?
water boys - my love is my rock in the weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
Yes my love is my rock in the long low weary land
None of this moves me
I should be weeping but it only hurts when I yawn
I let it blow through me and it's gone
I'm dressed like a scarecrow
stripped of all my power as if some judge in judgement said
"Off with his greatcoat and his head !"
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
Meaningless movies
on the screen behind the band that's blowing, throwing shapes
Half of the music is on tape
My mentor and champion
is busy tilting at the windmills of his stately home
The demon he's grappling is his own
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
His letter lies open
His accusations flow like poison from his every word
My heart would be broken but for Her
The fag-end of winter
I'm in shock, I'm on the ropes, I don't know what's to come
She plucks the splinter from my thumb
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
My love is my rock in the long low weary land
Yes my love is my rock in the long low weary land
In the weary land...
water boys - the pan within
Come with me
on a journey beneath the skin
Come with me
on a journey under the skin
We will look together
for the Pan within
Close your eyes
breathe slow we'll begin
Close your eyes
breathe slow and we will begin
To look together
for the Pan within
swing your hips
loose your head, and let it spin
Swing your hips
loose you head, and let it spin
And we will look together
for the Pan within
Close your eyes
breathe slow and we will begin
Close your eyes
breathe slow and we will begin
To look together
for the Pan within
Put your face in my window
breathe a night full of treasures
The wind is delicious
sweet and wild with the promise of pleasure
The stars are alive
and nights like these
Were born to be
sanctified by you and me
Lovers, thieves, fools and pretenders
and all we gotta do is surrender
Come with me
on a journey under the skin
Come with me
on a journey under the skin
And we will look together
for the Pan within
When to be with you
is not a sin
When to be with you, oh just to be with you
is not a sin
We will look together
for the Pan within
water boys - strange boat
We're sailing on a strange boat
heading for a strange shore
We're sailing on a strange boat
heading for a strange shore
Carrying the strangest cargo
that was ever hauled aboard
We're sailing on a strange sea
blown by a strange wind
We're sailing on a strange sea
blown by a strange wind
Carrying the strangest crew
that ever sinned
We're riding in a strange car
we're followin' a strange star
We're climbing on the strangest ladder
that was ever there to climb
We're living in a strange time
working for a strange goal
We're living in a strange time
working for a strange goal
We're turning flesh and body
into soul
water boys - and a bang on the ear
Lindsay was my first love she was in my class
I would have loved to take her out but I was too shy to ask
The fullness of my feeling was never made clear
but I send her my love with a bang on the ear
Nora was my girl when I first was in a group
I can still see her to this day, stirring chicken soup
Now she's living in Australia working for an auctioneer
but I send her my love with a bang on the ear
Deborah broke my heart and I the willing fool
I fell for her one summer on the road to Liverpool
I thought it was forever but it was over in a year (oh dear)
but I give her my love with a bang on the ear
The home I made with Bella became a house of pain
we weathered it together bound by a ball and chain
Is started up in Fife, and ended up in tears (oh dear)
but I send her my love with a bang on the ear
Krista was a rover from Canada she hailed
we crossed swords in San Francisco we both lived to tell the tale
I dont know now where she is oh but if I had her here
I'd give her my love with a bang on the ear
So my woman of the hearthfire, harbour of my soul
I watch you lightly sleeping and sense the dream that does unfold (like gold)
You to me are treasure, you to me are dear
so I'll give you my love with a bang on the ear
water boys - how long will i love you
How long will I love you
As long as there are stars above you
And longer if I can
How long will I need you
As long as the seasons need to
Follow their plan
How long will I be with you
AS long as the sea is bound to
wash upon the sand
How long will I want you
As long as you want me to
And longer by far
How long will I hold you
As long as your father told you
As long as you are
How long will I give to you
As long as I live to you
However long it you say
How long will I love you
As long as are stars above you
And longer if I may
water boys - church not made with hands
Bye-bye shadowlands
The term is over
and all the holidays have begun
Now she walks in fresh fields
her tracks are on the land
She is everywhere and no place
When it's dark and evening falls
she moves among men
They would seek to have her as a prize
But she is in the shadows
the ocean and the sand
She is everywhere and no place
Her church not made with hands
Not contained by man
She is dancing high as clouds
Faster than the arrow
as straight as any crows that flies
Accross great seas she travels
up through rising lands
She is everywhere and no place
Her church not made with hands
Not contained by man
Isn't that a pretty sun
setting in a pretty sky?
Will we stay and watch it darken?
Will we stay and watch it darken?
The church not made by hands
Not contained by man
That precious place
Unmade by man
water boys - i m so lonesome i could cry
Well, do you hear that lonesome ?? ??
Lord, he sounds too blue to cry
The midnight train lord he's ?? and ??
and I'm so lonesome I could cry
Well if you ever hear a robin weep
when the leaves begin to die
Likely he's lost the will to live
and I'm so lonesome I could cry
Now the silence of the falling star
it lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder sweetheart where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry
Now the train that I ride is sixteen coaches long
and the girl that I love is gone
and if I could grow wings, I would take off and fly
I'm lonesome I could cry
yes, I'm lonesome I could cry
water boys - we will not be lovers
You just stepped into the maintrack
climbed down off the fence
Words are your weapon
lies are your defence
I know what you want
and I see what you see
You're looking for somebody
but he isn't me
Find yourself another
because we will not be lovers
How your eyes are like tortures
and your presence is bliss
I never knew time
could speed and zip like this
The touch of your flesh
is tough to resist
Planets collide, collide
at the smack of your kiss
But you can kiss your brother
because we will not be lovers
Now you're pulling down curtains
You've been sparking old flames
You've been causing disturbance
crying for shame
You've been Knocking on doors
You've been abusing my name
You've been casting up doubt
you've been throwing your blame
But you can throw it at your mother
we will not be lovers
Now the world's full of trouble
everybody's scared
The landlords are frowning
cupboards are bare
People are scrambling
like dogs for a share
It's cruel and its hard
but it nothing compared to
what we do to each other
to each other
We will not be lovers!
we will not be lovers, no
We will not be lovers, no
water boys - it should have been you
Can I believe my ears?
is this really you?
Pacing the floor with one eye on the door
watching the winners go through
Why do you hang back now?
why d'you hesitate?
You fires don't burn
for he who waits
Out of all of the people
that I ever knew
If one should have made it
it should have been you!
I know who I'm looking for
but I don't believe my eyes
The sight of you with your head hung low
is a sick, sad suprise
Why do you hang back now?
why d'you hesitate?
How dare you throw it all away then tell me
aw man it must be fate
Out of all of the people
that I ever knew
There had to one I could believe in
and it should have been you!
A gift that dies is a tragic thing
and it happens all the time
But a gift that's wasted, thrown to hell is the
worst of stupid crimes!
I saw you hang back now!
I watched you hesitate!
You're a well respected man, but bullshit!
you could've been great!
Out of all the people
I ever knew
There should have been one
and it should have been you!
I spent my whole life
looking for someone like you!
water boys - this is the sea
These things you keep
you'd better throw them away
You wanna turn your back
on your soulless days
Once you were tethered
and now you are free
Once you were tethered
well now you are free
That was the river
this is the sea!
Now if you're feelin' weary
if you've been alone too long
Maybe you've been suffering from
a few too many
Plans that have gone wrong
and you're trying to remember
How fine your life used to be
running around banging your drum
Like it's 1973
well that was the river
This is the sea!
wooo!
Now you say you've got trouble
you say you've got pain
You say've got nothing left to believe in
nothing to hold on to
Nothing to trust
nothing but chains
You're scouring your conscience
raking through your memories
Scouring your conscience
raking through your memories
But that was the river
this is the sea yeah!
Now I can see you wavering
as you try to decide
You've got a war in your head
and it's tearing you up inside
You're trying to make sense
of something that you just can't see
Trying to make sense now
and you know you once held the key
But that was the river
and this is the sea!
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah!
Now I hear there's a train
it's coming on down the line
It's yours if you hurry
you've got still enough time
And you don't need no ticket
and you don't pay no fee
No you don't need no ticket
you don't pay no fee
Because that was the river
and this is the sea!
Behold the sea!
water boys - sweet thing
(Van Morrison, John Lennon)
And I will stroll the merry way and jump the hedges first
and I will drink the clear clean water for to quench my thirst
And I shall watch the ferry-boats and they'll get high
against a blue ocean, against tomorrow's sky
And I will walk and talk in gardens all wet with rain
and I will never ever ever get so old again
Oh sweet thing, yeah yeah yeah... sweet thing
my, my, my, my, my sweet thing
And I shall drive my chariot down your streets and cry
"Hey, it's me! I'm dynamite and I don't know why"
And you will take me warm in your arms again
and I will not remember that I ever felt the pain
And I will walk and talk in gardens all wet with rain
and never ever ever ever ever get so old again
Ooh
sweet thing
Yeah yeah yeah...
sweet thing
My my my...
And I will raise my hand up into the night time sky
and count the stars there shining in your eyes
Just to dig it all an' not to wonder, that's just fine...
and I'll be satisfied not to read in between the lines
And I will walk and talk in gardens all wet with rain
and never ever ever ever ever ever ever get so old again
Ooh
sweet thing
Yeah yeah yeah...
sweet thing
Sugar-baby, sugar-baby, sugar-baby,
with your saint-like smile
and your beautiful mind
and your champagne eyes
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take this broken wing and learn to fly
all your life you were only waiting for this moment to arrive
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
take your sunken eyes, learn to see
All your life you were only waiting for this moment to be free...
you were only waiting for this moment to be free...
you were only waiting for this moment to be free...
you were only waiting for this moment to be free...
you were only waiting for this moment to be free...
water boys - where are you now when i need you
Hey Johnny, where are you now when I need you?
now when I need you so bad?
Just one word come straight from your heart
makes me feel so glad!
Death and disease walz together like starlets in this place
I sure would like to see your honest face
Hey Eddie, where are you now when I miss you?
now when I miss you like hell?
If you were here I know you'd make me
believe again in myself!
You don't owe me nothing
I'm not calling you away
So please don't feel accused when I say
Where are you now when I need you?
now when I need you so bad?
My heads almost exploding
and the tension drives me mad
And maybe you wonder
do I really believe I need you?
But I do!
Hey you, where are you now when I dream about you
in nightmares every night?
You were on a big wheel high above me
almost out of my sight
And just as I wake you shout down something that sounds like
"Why are you not free?"
But by the time I'm dressed
you're just a memory
Where are you now when I need you?
now when I need you so bad?
When my heads almost exploding
and this tension drives me mad
And maybe you wonder
do I really believe I need you?
But I do!
Hey mama, where are you now I hurt for you?
I hurt for you so hard?
If you heard this song, I know you you'd come straight for me
you'd come somehow, no matter how far
There's a hundred things that I want to say to you
And they come rushing through my head
But when we meet like we always do, we leave the best things unsaid
and my god! Isn't that lonely?
That's lonely as hell
to know the truth always but to be too scared to tell
Where are you now when I need you?
now when I need you so bad?
When my hearts almost exploding
and this tension drives me mad
And maybe you wonder
Do I really believe I need you?
But I do!
but I do!
