Track Lyrics
I Didn’t See It Coming Lyrics
[Verse 1: Sarah Martin]
Make me dance, I want to surrender
Your familiar arms I remember
We’ve been going transcontinental
Got no car, we just take a rental
[Chorus: Sarah Martin]
But we don’t have the money
Money makes the wheels and the world go round
Forget about it, honey
[Verse 2: Sarah Martin, Stuart Murdoch]
Make me dance, I want to surrender
Your familiar arms I remember
Everybody’s talking about you
Every word’s a whisper without you
[Chorus: Sarah Martin, Stuart Murdoch]
But we don’t have the money
Money makes the wheels and the world go round
Forget about it, honey
Trouble’s never far away when you’re around
Cause we don’t have the money
Money makes the wheels and the world go round
Forget about it, honey
[Post-Chorus: Sarah Marrtin]
I didn’t see it coming
I'm just not in the running
[Bridge: Stuart Murdoch]
Take me on a train ‘cause I’m not flying
I can see the world from a different side
Read about us in the morning papers
When we make it alive
[Outro: Sarah Martin, Stuart Murdoch]
I didn't see it coming (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
I'm just not in the running (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
And we don't need a lifetime (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
We’re following the right line (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
And we don't need a lifetime (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
We're following the right line (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
I didn't see it coming (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
I'm just not in the running (Make me dance, I want to surrender)
Come On Sister Lyrics
7 ContributorsCome on Sister LyricsSix in the morning, the men started working
I can't sleep, no, I can't sleep
I keep feeling the lights so I think I should get up and call you
Gonna find you
And it's fun thinking of you like a movie star
And it's dumb thinking of you like the way that you are
Everyone loves you, the boy in the corner
The postman, the policeman
It does me no good to keep looking ahead
At your future adoration
And it's fun thinking of you like a movie star
And it's dumb thinking of you like the way that you were
Every moment like a sudden pleasure
Every moment that will get you by
And it's gonna cause a crisis
Might just lose a little faith
I've seen all kinds of strangers, the rich and the famous
They don't count, no, they don't count
Now I'm back on my beat on the same greasy street
There's an angel on my shoulder
Saying, "Ho, have you ever said an honest word?"
Saying, "Yo, have you ever said a pretty word?"
Every moment like a sudden pleasure
Every moment that will get you by
And it's going to cause a crisis
Might just lose a little faith
Don't touch me
If you touch me, you can never go back
Faith
Come on, sister, have a drink
Have a seat at the bar
Tell me all about your men
And your hopes and the hours of your life
You could love
After all that's what you're looking for
You can love
It's a currency unspoken of
But it's hard to form a good opinion
If you're going to look at me that way
And it's going to cause a crisis
Might just lose a little faith
Don't touch me
If you touch me, you can never go back
Faith
Come on, sister, have a drink
Have a seat at the bar
Tell me all about your men
And your hopes and the hours of your life
The Ghost of Rockschool Lyrics
6 ContributorsThe Ghost of Rockschool LyricsI've seen God in the sun, I've seen God in the street
God before bed and the promise of sleep
God in my dreams and the free ride of grace
But it all disappears and then I wake up
Was it too late? Was it just your fate?
There's a demon that waits at the garden gate
If you get past him, maybe Lawrence and Phil
Will be waiting to take you to the ghost of rockschool
Everything hums as the blue heart turns
And the blue girl's dawn is when the sun goes down
My story tonight is from your solitude heights
I got a window on your constellation
Master I love from the ground above
As the stars below, as my memory flows
Every picture frame is beating louder than time
Every clock in the hall is bending slowly
She's in her tower and she's beautiful, sure
The quicker you learn she has no soul to discern
At least no business of yours, you bear the vacuum of scars
She was put there to tempt you like the perfume of flowers
I've seen God in the sun, I've seen God in the street
God before bed and the promise of sleep
God in my dreams and the free ride of grace
I've seen God shining out from her reflection
I've seen God in the sun, I've seen God in the street
God before bed and the promise of sleep
God in the puddles and the lane beside houses
I've seen God shining out from her reflection
I've seen God in the sun, I've seen God in the street
God before bed and the promise of sleep
God in the puddles and the lane beside houses
I've seen God shining out from her reflection
Read the Blessed Pages Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Love and pain and sorrow
Keep the band together
She was like my soulmate
Whispered in my ear
Love was playing music
It was all we wanted
Making plastic records
Of our history
[Verse 2]
How I knew it mattered
To a certain person
Heard the boy in London
Called out from the crowd
Said something that echoes
To me ten years later
Wishing that he still called
Like he called that night
[Verse 3]
Pulling songs from thin air
Pulling songs from bridges
Smell the air in small towns
Where the train line stops
Ever will I love you
Now your chapter's over
Ever will I love you
You were good to me
[Verse 4]
Now a pain in memory
Is a cherished story
Moan about the present
Venerate the past
Love is like a novel

Did I do my best dear?
That is all you ask
