Paul Weller Album

Can nobody love you
Like I love you, yeah
Can nobody need you
Like I need you, yeah

While you got your head in the clouds
And talking so loud
Can’t you see past the stages
It’s only when you finally arrive
That you recognise
You been going through changes

Oh changes

Can nobody kiss you
Like I miss you, yeah
Can nobody tame you
Ain’t no chains to hold you

While you got your head in the clouds
And talking so loud
Can’t you read past the pages
It’s only when you finally arrive
That you recognise
You been going through changes

Oh changes
Ah changes
Oh changes
Ah changes

While you got your head in the clouds
And talking so loud
Can’t you see past the stages
It’s only when you finally arrive
That you recognise
You been going through changes

Oh changes
Ah changes
Oh changes
Oh

Blink! And you just might miss it
Blink! And you just might miss it
Blink! And you just might miss it
Blink! And you just might miss it

[No lyrics]

You have never been there,
till you've heard the fat girl sing,
nothing else matters
everything just pales within,
hanging round the corners,
shouting at the top of your voice,
sing you little rockers,
sing like you've got no choice

I believe it's true,
we are everywhere,
and i feel the wind,
and it feels so high,

There really is no purpose,
definately is no need
just running round the houses,
like a race horse on speed,

I believe again,
we are everything,
and i feel the wind,
and i've got so high,

C'mon, baby let's go,
Oooh c'mon, baby let's go,
and you said where to?
I said i don't know,
I just need to run,
and you need it too,
and i catch your ride,
and i feel the wind,
and it feels so high,

We're plotting out the acorns,
wondering to where they'll lead,
we're plotting out the acorns,
wondering to where they'll seed,

C'mon, baby let's go,
yeah c'mon,
baby let's go,

And you said where to?
I said i don't know.

A clock face ticking on empty dial
I only want what I know is mine
Sound the bells
'Cause here's the good new

Here's the one you been waiting for
Your time has come
Ain't gonna wait no more
Can I get a piece for me

You know when something's up
When it hits you hard
You feel like starting over
Straight back for yards
When everything is everything
And everything you see
Sees us doing all the things
That we want to be

Millions march back on their feet
Still no sign from, a, those who preach
Teach me not
They don't represent me

Here's the one you been waiting for
Don't waste time
Ain't gonna wait no more
Can I get a shout for me

You know when something's up
When it hits you hard
You feel like starting over
Straight back for yards
When everything is everything
And everything you see
Sees us doing all the things
That we want to be

Nothing's new and nothing gained
When all is lost and nothing claimed
Except the parts
They keep for theirselves

Here's the one you been waiting for
Don't waste time
Ain't gonna wait no more
Can I get a shout for me
Can I get a little piece for me
For me
Oh, for me
For me

Hold tight angel
Morning will soon be here
Washing your pillow
In swathes of gold and red
Our time is waiting
In the wings of uncertainty
Our love is waking
You're born to be with me

I know it takes
To the start of forever
That's a long time
Such a long time
To be waiting
In the sun
In the sun

Your soul so peaceful
How could I have been so mean
Feel I've been sleeping
Might have looked but I've never seen

Your beauty takes
To the start of forever
That's a long time
Such a long time
To be waiting
In the sun

Feel I've been sleeping
I'm born to be with you

To the start of forever
It's the start
It's a long time
Such a long time
To be waiting
In the sun
In the sun
In the sun
In the sun

He is not the God of creation
But he is the Lord
Of the morning light
And with his song
That floats on up
Through the daybreak
It is he that
Will stay daylong

Through the dawns early mists
That rise with the river
Through the sound of the world
Once more awake
You can feel
His presence strong
As forever as once more
The ice of night time melts

Give way the day
Give way the day
As we start again

Is he not the God of creation
Is he not the God of creation
Is he not the God of creation

I come to you
When you least expect
I call to you
To come with me now
I ask of you
To drop all things
Of absolution
And whatever may be
In your hands

All on a misty morning
I come to you with love
All on a misty morning
I come to you
I come to you with love

I talk to you
As a lover should
With a voice
Close to your ear
If I may
Get so near enough
You might hear
What I hear

It was all on a misty morning
I come to you with love
All on a misty morning
I come to you
I come to you with love

Let my hands be nimble
Let my tongue be quick
Let my loins move slowly
Against your skin

Let my face and mind
Disappear for a while
Let my kisses rain
Down like silk

Let our spit and sweat
Mingle into one
Let it form a stream
Of union
That would always run
Forever on

It would have no start
And know no end
It would have no start
And know no end

All on a misty morning
I come to with love
All on a misty morning
I come to you
I come to you with love

I’ve got a feeling
From the floorboards up
Call it a calling
If you like that touch
Call it what you will
I really don’t care too much

I’ve got a feeling
And I know it’s right
I get it most evenings
If not every night
It sings in the air
And dances like candle light

When we play, we play, we play
Mama, from the floorboards up
When we dance, we dance, we dance
Papa, from the floorboards up
When we sway, we sway as one
From the floorboards up
From the floorboards up

I get a feeling
From the walls and chairs
They tell me of the things that
Have always been there
And all that is not
Will have to go back to dust

When we play, we play, we play
Mama, from the floorboards up
When we dance, we dance, we dance
Papa, from the floorboards up
When we sway, we sway as one
From the floorboards up
From the floorboards up

I’ve got a feeling
And I know it’s right
I get it most evenings
If not every night
It sings in the air
And dances like candle light

When we play, we play, we play
Mama, from the floorboards up
When we dance, we dance, we dance
Daddy, from the floorboards up
When we sway, we sway as one
From the floorboards up
From the floorboards up
From the floorboards up

I wanna make it alright
alright between us two
I wanna put things right on this ground
before our time is through

I wanna be the kind
you want to come home too
I wanna be the one who gets to
make it with you with
try to love you better than
I ever done before

I wanna make it alright
I wanna make it alright

I wanna stand up and say
I'll always love you this way
I don't want you feeling blue
at the end of the day

try to put some goodness back
before this good thing goes
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you

straight back like a slave to sorrow
soon we'll come away
get back like a stoned tomorrow
cutting through the day
ah soon, let's fly away
only to find no need
I'm getting itchy feet

I wanna make it alright
I wanna make it alright

And try to love you better than
I ever done before

I wanna make it alright
alright between us two
I wanna put things right on this ground
before our time is through.

I wanna make it alright
I wanna make it alright
I wanna make it alright
I wanna make it with you

you're savages, he knows you are..
do you not think that god is looking down?
on you savages.. the children run, to mothers
you put bullets in their backs
ah cowards, can you not see
do you not think that love is coming down?

you have no gods, they have all disowned you,
you have no love, so you take it out on,
people's lives in progress,
that's what keeps you going when you're savages

savages, you can dress it up,
give it a name and a fancy uniform
and a flag to fly to hide behind,
can you not see the truth that's on the ground

you have no love,
it has all gone cold on you,
you never have, so you take it out on
those whose love is growing,
that's what you hate most, when you're savages

do you not see the love is coming down?

Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Just fly, just fly

You give the world to me
When you start to breathe
You give the world a dream
When you start to live
So fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly
Fly little bird
When you fly

Help the world to see
When you start to dream
You give the world to me
When you start to breathe
So, fly little bird
When you fly
Fly
Fly in the sky
So, fly little bird
When you fly
Fly (repeat over)

Give the world to feel
You help the world to heal
You give the world to live
When you start to live
So, fly little bird
When you fly

This world we need to leave
We're following your lead
You said the world was love
The love is what we need
So, fly little bird
When you fly

Fly, fly little bird when you
Fly, fly little bird when you
Fly, high in the sky when you
Fly, fly little bird when you
Fly (repeat)

Roll along summer
Wispering through my window pane
Wake me up and whole again
With a sway
Skate upon-something,
Get me up and out of bed
Put a volt right through my head
To beyond

You been down and out and blue
Take no notice of the moon - shame
Ol' man river's after you
Said you ain't done what you said you would
It's a shame
Shame

Roll along summer
Breathing life into the world
Creating space that wasn't there
Before

Forever in your shadow
It's darkness I can face
(I'm) proud to feel I can find a place
Somewhere behind

You been down and out and blue
Take no notice of the moon - shame
Ol' man river's after you
Said you ain't done what you said you would
It's a shame - shame
Shame on you

Roll along, beautiful lover,
Show me things I've never seen
Lighting up an ancient beam - for me to see

Once upon a time
There was a time, there was
When the brightest half of the sky
Let us know we were loved
And there was a feeling old and gold
And bold
And beautiful
Something noble, something lost
Safe yet curious

When you bring back the funk y'all
Slip up and slide
When you bring back the funk y'all
With no place left to hide
No place left to hide

When not only the wind in our sails
Some magic too
Sometimes we forget
Just how high the moon
It was something bright and fine
And in time
Became the world
It would shed stars and bars
All kinds of hearts
Were together again

When you bring back the funk y'all
Slip up and slide
When you bring back the funk y'all
With no place left to hide
When you bring back the funk y'all
Slip up and slide
When you bring back the funk y'all
With no place left to hide
No place left to hide

When you learn to speak
Whenever you want or need
When you learn to cry
When it passes you by
It is something, something to me now
It is something, something to me now
Give me something, something to me now

Once upon a dream
In the midnight hour
There was nothing like scene
And we thank the crowd
Now its a feeling tame and small
And though it all
I'll look for word
Just one more night exists
Just what if
We dream't for all

When you bring back the funk y'all
Slip up and slide
When you bring back the funk y'all
With no place left to hide
When you bring back the funk y'all
Get up and slide
When you bring back the funk y'all
With no place left to hide

When you bring back the funk y'all
Get up and slide
When you bring back the funk y'all
There'll be no place left to hide
When you bring back the funk y'all
When you bring back the funk y'all
When you bring back the love y'all
When you bring back the love y'all
When you bring back the funk y'all
When you bring back the love y'all
When you bring back the funk y'all

Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy,
Far away in the distance, with the sun in your eyes,
Can you see the footprints, that have merged with the sand,
And you're trying to find them, you find only dry land.

Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy,
Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man,
If you can, if you can.

Can the future, with every step you take,
yet you feel your no further, and your walking away,
Can you tell the difference between the pepple and the man
Far away in the ocean, with his back on dry sand.

Can you tell the difference, between the pepple and the boy,
Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man,
If you can, if you can.
