The Finn Brothers Album

You call me up and I'll say a few words
But I'll try not to speak too long
Please to be kind and I'll try to explain
I'll probably get it all wrong
What does it mean when you promise someone
That no matter how hard or whatever may come

It means that I won't give in, won't give in, won't give in
'Cause everyone I love is here
Take me home. Take me home

Once in a while I return to the fold
With people I call my own
Even if time is just a flicker of light
And we all have to die alone
What does it mean when you belong to someone
When you're born with a name, when you carry it on

It means that I won't give in, won't give in, won't give in
'Cause everyone I love is here
All at once, and I'll show you how to get here

Come on now, come on now, can you feel it, I can see it in ya
Come on now, come on now, reveal it, turn around won't ya
The right time, the right place, right now, turn around

A chance is made, a chance is lost, I carry myself to the edge of the earth

It means that I won't give in, won't give in, won't give in
'Cause everyone I love is here
Say it once, just say it, and disappear

It's a slow parade
Down a dusty road
We've learned to take abuse
From devils we don't know

People who have lost all heart
Look for someone else to blame
You just keep on walking
When they call you a dirty name

All the mud in this town
All the dirt in this world
None of it sticks on you
(You shake it off)
Cause you're better than that
And you don't need it
There's nothing wrong with you

The moment that we dread
It comes all too soon
Voices in your head
Still carry on the tune

Let the sound come in
From the world outside
You just keep on singing
When they tell you filthy lies

All the mud in this town
All the dirt in this world
None of it sticks on you
(You shake it off)
Cause you're better than that
And you don't need it
There's nothing wrong with you

Remember how it made you hurt
Even as you fight to go on
Turn it into something else
Turn it into something else

All the mud in this town
All the dirt in this world
None of it sticks on you
(You shake it off)
Cause you're better than that
And you don't need it
No, you don't believe it

All the mud in this town
All the dirt in this world
None of it sticks on you
(You shake it off)
Cause you're better than that
And you don't need it
There's nothing wrong with you
There's nothing wrong with you
No

I walk along with you

There's nothing wrong with you
There's nothing wrong with you

Day
Has begun
And I stumble
To the front
There's no
Real control
Of a random
Event

And I will take my chances
'Cos anything can happen
I don't believe it's over
'Cos anything can happen

I could never
Give it up
I could never relent
And I can't
Wait to see
What will happen
To me next

I will take my chances
'Cos anything can happen
I don't believe it's over
'Cos anything can happen

It doesn't matter
What we did wrong
Makes no difference
To me
I see the light in your eyes
And you're dancing free

And I'm coming down today
To gather in the pieces
Give in to the mystery

And I will take my chances
'Cos anything can happen
Don't believe it's over
'Cos anything can happen

One day, I
Someday, I

Anything can happen
Yeah, anything can happen

I will make it shine
I will make it rain sometime

I know that it's you behind
Everything that I do
And I wouldn't try to hide
Who I am from you

It's all me
That you see
I was ready for another try
But I needed you to set me free
Must be the luckiest man alive

Man finds love in his life
He's the luckiest man alive
Someone true by his side
He's the luckiest man alive
Once you cut right through
His foolish pride
He's the luckiest man alive

I've never had the time before
Leaving things where they fell
I was going door to door
Always thinking I was somewhere else

You saw me
And what I could be
And now I know what love is for
It's the only thing sets you free
Must be the luckiest man alive

Man finds love in his life
He's the luckiest man alive
Someone true by his side
He's the luckiest man alive
She cut right through
His foolish pride
He's the luckiest man alive

Feel the motion
It's an endless ocean
Rocking gently and
Moving deeply
Feels like always
Been knocked sideways
Over and over by the
Strength of your love

Man finds love
Man finds love in his eyes
He's the luckiest man alive
Someone true
Man finds love
He's the luckiest man alive
Someone true

At the shopping mall
I'm surrounded by a parking lot
Walking down the aisle
I was thinking about what I had lost

On a Sunday morning
My hometown is feeling strange to me
In the stadium
Dark forces are gathering

Homesick
For the people that I live with
Homesick
For the spirit I'm missing
Homesick
For the country that I'm living in

First you make me hungry
Then you feed me something I don't want
There's no satisfaction
For an aching heart
But life goes on
And when I complain
I get thrown out of the restaurant

Homesick
For the people that I live with
Homesick
For the spirit I'm missing
Homesick
For the country that I'm living in

Homesick
For the people that I live with
Homesick

Homesick
For the country that I'm living in

Talking with my brother
When the lights went out
Down the hallway
Forty years ago

And what became much harder
Was so easy then
Opening up and letting go

Disembodied voices
Floating in the air
This place in the darkness
Could be anywhere

Talking to each other
As we wait for sleep
The angel in the detail
Soon arrives

Spreading her wings over
Every memory
And keeping all our hopes alive

Disembodied voices
Floating in the air
This place in the darkness
Could be anywhere

We all made our choices
Let's work out what we're going to do
Disembodied voices
Revealing what we know is true

And so much is here
If we all disappear

We could be anywhere
We could be anywhere
We could be anywhere

We could be
We could be anywhere

We could be anywhere

We could
We could be anywhere

In so many ways
I'm the same as you
In so many things
Better left unsaid
From out of the deep well
The water flows into the sea

And that's the way it starts
And continues to unfold
But to both of us
That will never change

And we're staring at
Each other
Like the banks of
A river
And we can't get
Any closer

I won't give control to anyone
Walk around , kiss the ground
Like I own the place
But in the passage of time
The river banks get washed away

And that's the way it starts
And continues to evolve
I reveal myself
You watch over me

And we're staring at
Each other
Like the banks of
A river
And we can't get
Any closer
But we form a life
Between us

And brother
(Not my way
Must be the different direction we're facing

Not my way
You're still as unknown
As ever)

Are you still someone
Who'll watch over me

And we're staring at
Each other
Like the banks of
A river
And we can't get
Any closer

But we form a life
Yes, we form a life
Between us
Between us

We're all God's children
And God is a woman
But we still don't know
Who the father is

I can't help thinking
There's a fortune riding
On the answer to that question

We stop for a moment
And forget the enemy
There's a something
You're not telling us

(Got to make you less lonely
Time to make you less lonely)

We're globalizing
But we don't like competition
And we still don't know
Who the father is

But you're so damn pretty
And don't you know it
There's a kiss and then
We all make up

(Got to make you less lonely
Got to make you less lonely)

All sides
Die happy
This is the last chance
You've got to do it now

People are waiting
For him to come around
All his attention
We've got to stick around

(You might be less lonely
Got to make you less lonely

Some people now
Help me
Don't make me less lonely
Don't you drive me out)

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 can never forget
The day we said goodbye
Holding your hands
A rainbow low in the sky

And all the colors there
To gather you up
And carry you up
All the colors there
To gather you up

Now, we're left here
To get on with our things
Writing it down
And working with wood and strings

And all the colors there
To open us up
And bring us luck
All the colors there
To open us up

You went walking through that door
Leaving it ajar
Whenever things come to an end
It takes a while to close it again

And all the colors gently
Pushing it shut
And pushing it shut

All the colors there
To open us up
And bring us luck

All the colors there
To gather us up
To gather us up
To gather us up
To gather you up
Again

Over these green hills
Blue electric light
Always in my blood
Forever in my eyes

Black window space
A basket made of flax
Broken mirror view
Let your eyes relax

Mist
On my glass
Watch it all
Come to pass
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
Part of you

Now my voice won't sing
And my tears won't cry
Your disciple waits
For any good advice

Our place in time
It's not set in stone
And we'll still be here
Where the cows come home

Mist
On the glass
Watch it all
Come to pass
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
Part of you

And it has to be clear
Inside my head
And I'm still in a dream
In a dream that won't end

Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
Part of you

Mist
On the glass
Watch it all
Come to pass
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
And part of you

And it has to be clear
It has to be clear
Inside my head

This bird has to sing
My heart has to follow
A man with no soul
Is wooden and hollow

This gentle hum
Is just begun
This gentle hum
Make us one

My wish is for you
An end to your sorrow
And if it comes true
You'll wake up tomorrow
Alone

With a gentle hum
Is just begun
This gentle hum
Will make us one

There
For anyone who cares
Solemn faces in the courtroom stare

And this gentle hum
Will wake up tomorrow

With a gentle hum
This gentle hum

This gentle hum
Will make us one
This gentle hum
Is just begun

This gentle hum, coming up from before
Find a loving feeling, inside
This gentle hum, bringing it back to me
Find a loving feeling, in your life
