The Cribs Album

And now I know in my mind, it's time to feel round
Cause that is the best way to deal this I find
Oh I don't know, time goes so slow
And maybe it's time to let go, I don't know
I know it's not right
Now I must wake, I know I must take you home
How can I feel right, when you are the one
That I like to see and be with on a night

And all that I ask
Don't give yourself away tpo easy
Don't give yourself to me

Now I know it's not right, my friend
Now I must wake, I know I must take you home

Now I must take you home
Always I go alone
If you want to, I'd like to die
Cause if you always insist
I will have to resist
Cause no one likes that anyway

I get the feeling they got you believing
It's better to be loved than left out
But it's like you told me
It's nothing to do with acceptance
It's all about escaping
Then you heard that there's always someone
Forget the wrong one
Disregard your past
But she came with feelings too complex to be amusing
You're gonna get in trouble with that
You're gonna get in trouble with that
You're gonna struggle with that

And I know I said I needed some time alone
And I know I never seem to pick up the phone
And though you will see me with someone else
You were always the one

And I know I said I needed some time alone
And I know I never seem to pick up the phone
And though you will see me with someone else
Yeah, you were always the one

I get the feeling they got you believing
It's better to be loved than left out
But yeah, like you told me
It's nothing to do with acceptance
It's all about escaping

I setenced myself now a long long time ago
And I hope to be free
But I guess that you've heard that before
So will you try and look surprised
When you find out I lied?

And I know I said I needed some time alone
And I know I never seem to pick up the phone
And though you will see me with someone else
You were always the one

And I know I said I needed some time alone
And I know I never seem to pick up the phone
And though you will see me with someone else
You were always the one

Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh
Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh
Thought it wasn't right to tease me
When no one was around
And you turned me up, and you broke my heart
And you said, yeah you heard every sound

Got really hot in the morning
So I went to blow me down
And you don't know when the lights went out
But the lights are out now

Don't know what you do, but oh

Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh
Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh

Supposed to connect some New York boys
Would have had to go way out of town
And I want no drugs, couldn't get the stuff
And you know what, I think they hate me now

Got really hot in the morning
So I went to blow me down
And you don't know when the lights went out
But the lights are out now

Don't know what you do, but oh

Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh
Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh
Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh
Why can't I be like the one who went over?
It's over, get over, woah-oh

You and I
You and I
We should take the road less travelled
We should take the road less travelled
And we'll die
We'll die
You and I
You and I
We should always feel empowered
We should always feel empowered
And we'll die
We'll die

And when you're feeling low
Weren't feeling sure
We all know what it's like to be left behind
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
Yeah yeah yeah, oh

It's been sometime since I first met you
Noone thinks about you more than I do
If you won't let me find you
How am I gonna get through
I was straight and acted like a fool
You were drunk and inbelievably cool
You won't find a friend who
Knows you like I do

It's been sometime since I first met you
Noone thinks about you more than I do
If you won't let me find you
How am I gonna get through

I was straight and acted like a fool
You were drunk and inbelievably cool
You won't find a friend who
Knows you like I do

It's time you should be going
But there's noone home
I guess I'm alone
There's things you should be knowing
But noone ever asked me before
And you can know the rest if you want to

And everytime they are together
They all crowed around to take a picture
Don't you feel you have to
In fact I feel obliged to
If you wont let me find you
How am I gonna get through

I'm alone and I'm cold
Just another number on another road
I'm alone and I'm cold
Just another number on another road
And I never knew my name
And I never knew my name

I'm alone and I'm cold
Just another number on another road
I'm alone and I'm cold
Just another number on another road

I get sucked in for hours
Over the smallest things, yeah
I get sucked in for hours
Bah dah, bah dah dah
Bah bah bah dah dah dah
Bah dah, bah dah dah
Bah bah dah dah dah dah

And I never knew my name
And I never knew my name

I have always had
A real problem with getting down
But it's alright you know
I really don't mind that you know
I know you've been sleeping around
Your bed's full of idiots from town to town
But it's alright you know
I really don't mind that you know

Out of sight
It's not right, she said
Leave town right now, say
Oh oh oh oh

Out of sight (Oooh)
It's not right, she said
Come on, leave town right now, say
Oh oh oh oh

And now, I'm back to the plot
I'm sorry I got side-tracked there, I'm bad out of plan
But it's alright you know
I really don't mind that you know

The words that they said sounded like
They were underwater, but I understand
But it's alright you know
I really don't mind that you know

Out of sight
It's not right, she said
Leave town right now, say
Oh oh oh oh

Out of sight (Oooh)
It's not right, she said
Come on, leave town right now, say
Oh oh oh oh

Out of sight
It's not right, she said
Leave town right now, say
Oh oh oh oh

Out of sight (Oooh)
It's not right, she said
Come on, leave town right now, say
Oh oh oh oh

And I'm learning how to fight
kissing you goodnight
But I still can't really tell you why I'm blue
And I'm learning how to fight
Kissing you goodnight
And the reasons you'll never really find

You took me out to breakfast
I guess that means that's better
But in your room I still know what to do

And now I know I've got to
Do all these things without you
Although I dont ...
It still tells me what to do, yeah!

And I'm learning how to fight
Kissing you goodnight
But I still can't really tell you why I'm blue

And I'm learning how to fight
Kissing you goodnight
And the reasons you'll never really find

You took me out in the night too
I'd have to see what I'd do
because when I do it, then we do it all!
because that's what I'm like with you

And now I know you've gone home
Back to wherever you came from
And all I've got is a song
On a record I don't even own, aaaah!

And I'm learning how to fight
Kissing you goodnight
But I still can't really tell you bout my bruise

And I'm learning how to fight
Kissing you goodnight
And the reasons you'll never really fi-i-ind
Find, find, fi-i-i-iind

I went to bed the very first time
We talked the same
We were talking about the things
That really get her down
Woah-oh, I want you to remind me
Woah-oh, I want you to remind me

I went to bed but spent too long
Looking round
We were talking about the things
That really get me down

Woah-oh, I want you to remind me
Woah-oh, I want you to remind me
(x6)

Why does it always happen like this?

Now and again I've got a lot to say
And I can't afford you this one
Oh yeah, she asks me where I'm going
Now and again I'll find a friend who knows
She asks me where I'm going
Oh yeah, she asks me where I'm going
Well if you're always saying that
Baby don't sweat
I'm probably so hard to find
I'll never forget
I'm always in debt
Baby you opened my mind

Now and again I've got a lot to say
And I can't afford you this one
Oh yeah, she asks me where I'm going
Now and again I'll find a friend who knows
She asks me where I'm going
Oh yeah, she asks me where I'm going

Well if you're always saying that
Baby don't sweat
I'm probably so hard to find
I'll never forget you
I'm always in debt to you
Baby you opened my mind

Well if you're always saying that
Baby don't sweat
I'm probably so hard to find
I'll never forget you
I'm always in debt to you
Baby you opened my mind

Now and again I've got a lot to say
And I can't afford you this one
Oh yeah, she asks me where I'm going
Now and again I find a friend who knows
She asks me where I'm going
Oh yeah, she asks me where I'm going

I may be leaving, but it's okay
To say what you're feeling, but baby not for free
It's called direction
So many times I can see
That the way that you are is rubbing off on me
It's called direction

Did you realise it's not quite time
You look out the window, the trains keep rolling by
It's called direction

You're still in but then comes the evening
It's the best time of day, cause that's when you're on your own
It's called direction

Finding you face down I heard you say
No one needs to know anyway
The reasons why we're late
Finding you face down I heard you say
No one needs to know anyway
The things we did today

Holding on, but is that right?
You take me home but only on a night
It's called direction

Don't forget, we'll wait and see
They only ask because you are with me
Although we've got no direction

Finding you face down I heard you say
No one needs to know anyway
The reasons why we're late
Finding you face down I heard you say
No one needs to know anyway
The things we did today

What's the best thing about here?
It's not the place, it's the people!
But you wouldn't know, cause your people are not us
It's pretty funny what happened
And I wonder, if you'll remember
The time we spent together?
And I wonder if you liked us all the time?
And I'll move on to this next one
This next one is the wrong one
And I wonder what you see when you're blind?

Outside it's cold and it's warm
My favourite place so far is where I am
The best things in life are free but I've paid up
Because I forgot what it was I was on about

And I wonder, if you'll remember
The time we spent together?
And I wonder if you'll feel bad in time?
And you'll always find a problem
When I am locked in boredom
But that's the way my life tends to be
