In The Garden

in the Garden of Eden baby
there was a man and a woman
born of dust and a touch
made for love and lust
even in paradise it gets lonely
in the garden
in the garden a serpent one day
said to Eve and Adam
eat the fruit, yeah why not?
learn the truth, become as God
even in paradise it gets boring
in the garden
in the garden but leaving baby
there was a man and a woman
but now they're lost, now they're cursed
to live in pain and toil the earth
even in paradise God gets angry
in the garden
but don't get heavy
we've got each other baby
don't get heavy today

Lost Love
03:12
|

oh lost love
i'll add your letters to the pile
stars burn cold
fire sends the ashes high
and when they're gone
I hope you'll be gone
memory
guardian and treasury
of all things
hurry up and take your leave
and when you're gone
I hope she'll be gone
she's the only one I know
guess I must be having fun
oh my baby

Wrong Bus (Again)
04:32
|
|||
I got on the wrong bus again
and it took me to your house
it must be a subconscious thing
I never get out
I go walking
and listen to my walkman
you know it's hard man
when your heart is broken
my traitor feet
always take me to your street
my downcast eyes
always act surprised

The Claddagh
05:29
|
|||
on the way back to a party at your house
I got lost down by The Claddagh
in the winding, meandering roads
I wrote your number on the back of my hand
but it was raining, I couldn't read it
I stumbled blindly
in the moonlight
only to fall by the water
and I lay down on the concrete where I fell
by the water, by the river
I was young then and I remember it well
I lost her

As Dark As Wine
05:46
|
|||
I got drunk on the fumes off your breath as you slept
and I thought about tonight's scene
well it seems you're always to the right or to the left
never a golden mean
but you're as dark as wine
and you're champagne bright
but you're nothing in between girl
no you're nothing in between
you arose in a haze, free from memories
just a sense of regret
and then you turn to me for your remedies
sex and cigarettes
you're as dark as wine
and you're champagne bright
but you're nothing in between girl
no you're nothing in between
and just like drinking, you leave me twisted
the taste of your wine and your champagne
but the hangover, it ain't so good
it's a pain
and I could say the sun shines on you
but the sun shines on everything
and when it rains it only ever rains on you
girl you should come with a warning
you're as dark as wine
and you're champagne bright
but you're nothing in between girl
no you're nothing in between
no you're nothing in between my girl
no you're nothing in between
and I said ooh, ooh, ooh.

Boys Can Be So Cruel
07:36
|
|||
I've had my heart broken, I've broken one
I've been cheated on
I've cheated on more than one
occasion
but these days guilt don't weigh that much
the guilt comes when you're caught
and these days nothing weighs that much
I don't know if it's the truth, you know boys can be so cruel
I've been beaten up, I've worn make up
the things you do for love
I've broken up over break ups
but I have woken up
and now there's only selfish love
something inside is lost
and now there's only selfish love
I don't know if it's the truth, you know boys can be so cruel
but this love right here, this love is pure
and I know this for sure
you're further from a heart breaker
then the sun from the shore
and I'm sorry for all my lies, I apologised
I'm sorry for all my lies
I don't know if it's the truth, you know boys can be so cruel

oh my love
let me know
when you're down
when you're home
oh my love
