You're A Ghost

I can't work out the image
And it's giving me a fright
If I steal my parent's keys
Can we wax the moon tonight
You're in the radiator knocking
You're in the tap that always drips
You're a ghost
Who's never gonna quit
Haunting my mind
I could show you an exit
But that's not mine to find
And while your words are softly spoken
You're never out of sight
You're in the radiator knocking
You're in the tap that always drips
You're a ghost
Who's never gonna quit
Haunting my mind
You're in the radiator knocking
You're in the tap that always drips
You're a ghost

Try Again

First
Oh the first time I
Tried to open up my mind
But conversational past times used
Up all the words and I tried and tried
But patience expired
I try and try
So
For a second time
I put my hang ups aside
And something inside was out for good
I put out my words and they’re well understood
This feeling I like
And I like how you look
It’s a shame that I cannot
Say the words in time
I put out my words and they’re well understood
This feeling I like
And I like how you look
Never mind I’ll just have to
Try and try and try
Try again

Sycamore Way

There’s a place by the old mill stream
Down on Sycamore Way
Where I was a fool
I broke all the rules
I couldn’t show my face
No I couldn’t show my face
I held you to my chest
And you wore a pinafore dress
I left for a while
Cos I was a child
But I didn’t have to go
Now I’m old enough to know
It’s hard to keep it down
I was falling hard for you
But in my heart of hearts
I knew what I should do
I had to run up to the back of your house and
Call your name
Hope you feel the same
Go back to the place where I messed up and try and try again
Start the day
With hope for a change
Take the steps to pass the test and exit the refrain
There’s a place by the old mill stream
Down on Sycamore Way
Where I kept my cool
And told you the truth
But you didn’t know what to say
You didn’t know what to say

Worry All The Time
03:07
|
|||
|
Trying to keep my cool while you’re sitting by my side
And feeling a fool cos I know I’m not this shy
Trying to be the boy who might someday speak his mind
But I worry all the time
I’m walking past your words cos I’m listening to your eyes
And tripping on my feet when you ask me what’s my type
I’m struggling to speak it and now you know my secret
I worry all the time
Just like a melody can tell you discreetly
I’ll sing you what I’m never gonna say
First I felt it once a week now I feel it completely
Even though I know you’re never gonna stay
Maybe it’s okay and I’ll never have to say
What’s inside my head cos it spells out the end
And I’ll be thinking to myself that I’ve thrown away a friend
Cos I worry all the time
Just like a melody can tell you discreetly
I’ll sing you what I’m never gonna say
First I felt it once a week now I feel it completely
Even though I know you’re never gonna stay

O Athena!
02:50

Made fast for the front door
Booked it out the book store
Orestes in my hand
We were always good friends
I never wanna go back to when
I never wanted anyone then
Oh, oh Athena
I’d wait my turn to see her
Came upon some place there
Sat outside Trousseau square
Strawberries in my hand
I think we will be friends
And I never wanna go back to when
I never wanted anyone then
Oh, oh Athena
I’d wait my turn to see her

Tiptoeing round the situation that I’m in
And delicately placing words I haven’t pride or place to think
Oh how I wish I didn’t idolize you so
Much that all the faults which make you up I hardly know
I follow your direction in the movements that I make
To stop from shaking and waking from a stupid mistake
Oh how I wish I could’ve saved these moments up
And watched them on a bonus disk re-release of us
Like when you held my glance
Look in your eyes
I was yours and you were mine
And we crossed our feet
And we let our feelings wait
And I gave to you a playlist that I made
As if I had a chance
Look at your eyes
You were always just being kind
You were always just being kind
You were always just being kind
So I crossed my arms
And I let my feelings fade
And I gave to you a playlist that I made

Our Time Is Now
02:30
|

|
Something tells me this is my last chance
And from now on we’re never going back
Don’t look back
And just like that the rain came down
The plants flew up but the buildings drowned
I’m down but I’m not out
The time is ours
Our time is now
All I want is time spent by your side
The world could burn and I won’t blink an eye
While we burn
The world will turn
And just like that the rain came down
The plants flew up and the buildings drowned
I’m down but I won’t bow
The time is ours
Our time is now
Come outside
Embrace the change
Drop your pride
Staying inside won’t stop the rain
Days pass by and change can feel so slow
And when we’re old we’ll know more than we know

Lemongrass
01:41

Sitting on the porch reading books to the dog
She listens when I sob
Sometimes he chased and we ran at the sight
So we drove to cafes in the dark of the night
And when you laughed you’d squint your eyes
Lemongrass in your hair
Feels like I’m on air
Whenever we share
Sitting on the porch reading books to the dog
She listens when I sob
So we drove to cafes in the dark of the night
And when you laughed you’d sometimes cry

I’d like to go on vacation
In the heaven-scraping
International Space Station
There’s something about that placement
Depending on how your facing
Where you’re in or you’re out of conversation
With the Earth on one side
And the darkness behind
I’ll wave to you
While I’m fading, fading, fading
Out of view
Cos I’m fading, fading, fading
From view
With the Earth on one side
And the darkness behind
I’ll wave to you
While I’m fading, fading, fading
From view

Time alone is a hard thing but it’s a
Feeling I would like to live in and it’s a
Sad state when you can’t feel no
Warm reflection of sun from the steel but I’ve got
Daisy’s love on my mind
Well I’m falling but I’ll disregard
How much it hurts you when I make my mark but when you
Turned towards me and swept my nerves
And I made a move but then I fell while you swerved and now I’ve got
Daisy’s swerve on my mind
Daisy’s swerve on my mind
Just like the bird eats the worm
Just like the sea eats the Earth
You done to me what I did to her
And I’ve got what I deserve
And there’s nothing I would rather feel
Than Daisy’s love
