7 Worlds Collide Album

I see a dog upon the road
Running hard to catch a cat
My car is pulling to a halt
The truck behind me doesn't know
Everything is in the balance
Of a moment I can't control
And your sympathetic strings
Are like the stirrings in my soul
I could go at anytime
There's nothing safe about this life
I could go at anytime

Find the meaning of the act
Remember how it goes
Every time you take the water
And you swim against the flow
The world is all around us
The days are flying past
And fear is so contagious
But I'm not afraid to laugh
I could go at anytime
There's nothing safe about this life
I could go at anytime

Anytime (come without warning)
Anytime (it could be so easy)
A walk in the park (or maybe when I'm sleeping)
Anytime (see the clouds come over)
Rain or shine (I make you so unhappy)

Let's make it right
I feel like I'm in love
With a stranger I'll never know

Although you're still a mystery
I'm so glad I'm not alone
I could go at anytime
There's nothing safe about this life
Make it so easy to fly in the night
I could go at anytime
I could go at anytime

[No lyrics]

Beside me now are strangers to my eyes
They might be getting crazy might be wise
Were stranded either way
In such a lonely place
I'm looking out for you
Among the flies that wait in line for days on end
And nights so cold and always so intense

I try to reach the top most every day
In hope I turn my face up to the sky
The cover hangs so low
I see no sign of life
Nothing springs to mind
Among the flies that wait in line
For days on end and nights so cold
Its always so intense
And here we are
There's a smile between us and its going on

You and me have always gotten through
Anyone can tell you that its true
You feel it every time you drive away from home
The headlights hypnotist and they take you off towards the sea
Into the night you run away with thoughts you cannot hide
Vacant eyes cant describe my hunger
For your billowing arms

Mother I cant help thinking of you
Take this dull ache away

Remember my loose tongue
Forget what I just said
I'd crawl over broken glass
If we could start again
Before our plans were made
When the world was young
The house is falling down
Because of my loose tongue
Shouldn't say so much
Shouldn't talk so loud
No sooner on your lips
Than it's all over town
In all our given days
How many gone to waste
A good man has been hung
Because of my loose tongue
Your skin is changing its hue
Your guard is coming down fast
Looks like someone I knew
Uncovered happiness at last
All the wagging tongues
Too much information
In the future now
Under massive doubt
The papers on the street
Get trampled under feet
And they settled for a princely sum
Goodwill is coming down
And when it rains
Your well is full

[No lyrics]

Take me out tonight
Where there’s music and there’s people
Who are young and alive

Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see light

Driving in your car
Oh, please don’t drop me home
Because it’s not my home, it’s their home
And I’m welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere
I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care

And in the darkened underpass
I thought, oh God, my chance has come at last
But then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn’t ask

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere
I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care

Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one
I haven’t got one
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us, so what
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light, never goes out
There is a light, never goes out
There is a light, never goes out
There is a light, never goes out
There is a light, never goes out
There is a light, never goes out
There is a light, never goes out

[No lyrics]

There's a light overhead, overhead
In the sky overhead, overhead
And I'm with you now in body and music and mind
And we're silent and still

Everything's so out of control tonight
In a plane that's flying past
At a speed that makes me cry
Have you left me now
To trouble that won't let me lie
I'm awake all the time
You know where I stand
Holding my plastic gun

So turn and run
You cold killers of innocence
Against us there's no defence
Your flash and your wickedness
You can't break our love

Tie my hands behind my back
Put a gag on top of my mouth
But I won't give you up
Till silverware's covered in dust
And my shoes fall apart
And the tumbleweed runs
Over my desert heart,

So turn and run
You cold killers of innocence
Against us there's no defence
Your flash and your wickedness
Will surely bring you down again
Somehow we must stay afloat
Won't give in to the undertow
Something's you will never know
You can't break our love
You can pull us down
But you can't break our love

News travels fast, there's an old wreck in the underpass
Wine in a glass and a well traveled bed, down the length
And breadth of the motorway, down the information highway

I took a ride in an angels heap
Yeah, I took a ride and she took me away
To where the hills are steep, yeah I took a ride

In the still mind of a child, there's a live bird on her shoulder
She could swallow a lie like she's drinking a flagon of beer
I'll never be the same again, let the black wheels fly over

I took a ride in an angels heap and she took me away
To where the air was sweet and she made me come alive
In a red vinyl seat, yeah I took a ride, let the black wheels fly over

Everybody wants the same thing
Everybody wants the same thing
To see another birthday

Look at all the pretty numbers
Look at all the pretty numbers
Scattered on the calendars

I can see my reflection
I can see my reflection
In the shop window

Who owns that space
Declare it if you dare tonight
Don't let the moment pass
Until another day

Bright lights dissolve
Like sugar deep inside you now
It all ends up the same somehow
I'm hardly here at all

All the trash and the treasure
All the trash and the treasure
All the pain and the pleasure

Taste the edible flowers
Taste the edible flowers
Scattered in the salad days

Who owns that space
Declare it if you dare tonight
Don't let the moment pass
Until another day

Bright lights dissolve
Like sugar deep inside you now
And still the rain keeps coming down
I'm hardly here at all

And everything's gone quiet now
I'm hardly here at all

I might be old but I'm someone new she said
I'm so sore that I could cry always
in the night lay your tired arms

She will have her way
somehow I will still believe her

She's the life I've been frightened of seems like
deathly silence and especially the dark feels like
I am heavy and my spirit has died

She will have her way
and somehow I will still believe her
she will have her way
one day I will come back

Still no end in sight
though I travel far and wide
dying man is doing time
thinker, soldier terrified

she will have her way
and somehow I will still believe her
she will have her way
and one day I will come (back)

she will have her way

[No lyrics]

Walkin' around the room singin', 'Stormy Weather'
At 57 Mount Pleasant Street
Well, it's the same room but everything's different
You can fight the sleep but not the dream

Things ain't cookin' in my kitchen
Strange affliction wash over me
Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue sky

Well, there's a small boat made of China
It's goin' nowhere on the mantle piece
Well, do I lie like a lounge room lizard
Or do I sing like a bird released

Everywhere you go
You always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go
You always take the weather

Everywhere you go
You always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go
You always take the weather, take the weather with you

Everywhere you go
You always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go
You always take the weather

Everywhere you go
You always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go
You always take the weather, take the weather
Weather with you

Everywhere you go
You always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go
You always take the weather

Everywhere you go
You always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go
You always take the weather, take the weather
Weather with you

Wherever you are
It's 3 a.m. and I'm awake
Imagine the light
Upon your blue transparent face
Through coloured glass
It filters down to warmest red
Faded...

I'm the one who reads your mind
See my life in your design
True companion at your side

You're gracious and good
When all around is turning bad
Restless and brave
When laid upon suburban grass
Your timing is right
Remove the sad persistent thought
Hold the course

I'm the one who reads your mind
See my life in your design
True companion at your side

I'll give you something, for when I'm not around,
To make you smile
And if you think it then it must be true
If only I could make it through

Climb into my bed,
Wherever you are
Wherever you are

Your timing is good,
Remove the sad persistent thought,
Hold the course

I'm the one who reads your mind
See my life in your design
True companion at your side

I'll leave you something for when I'm not around,
To make you smile,
Outside that wasteland
And if only I could make it through
If you think it then it must be true
Wherever you are

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
Don't ever let them win
