High on Emotion - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

Oh my heart is spinning like a wheel, Only she can see the way that I fell, Eyes are holding right across the room, High explosion coming out of the blue; Well here we go again, Living in a world that others cannot share, Yea here we go again, We are moving from a spark […]

Up Here In Heaven - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

Up on the hill I see it begin, Marking the heroes where they fall, In the stone, in the stone the names of those who have gone; And over the river, there is a place, Where they remember boys and men, Widows talk, widows talk of all that they could have been; We can hear […]

Fatal Hesitation - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

The cafes are all deserted, the streets are wet again, There’s nothing quite like an out of season holiday town, In the rain, When the tourists go and the cold winds blow, And my girl is on a plane, home… I’m never going to love another, the way that I have loved you, It’s taken […]

A Spaceman Came Travelling - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar, ’twas light years of time since his mission did start, And over a village he halted his craft, And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star… He followed a light and came down to a shed, Where a mother and a […]

Blonde Hair, Blue Jeans - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

Blonde hair, blue jeans, best thing I’ve ever seen, She looks great, she feels good, lives in my neighbourhood, And when she walks past my house she brings me to my knees, It’s like a long dark shadow falling over me; I’m talking ’bout Blonde hair, blue jeans, she haunts me in my dreams I […]

There’s a New Star Up In Heaven Tonight - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

Shadows darken and the day is done And I cannot believe that it’s true and you are gone You were always here beside me You gave so much as the Queen of Hearts To those without love You were their voice when they could not speak A touch for the dying And as we say […]

Missing You - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

I’ve been missing you… I’ve got the roses, I’ve got the wine, With a little luck she will be here on time, This is the place we used to go, With romantic music and the lights down low, And as you stand there amazed at the door, And you’re wondering what all this is for, […]

The Snows Of New York - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

I can see you now by the light of the dawn, And the sun is rising slow, We have talked all night, and I can’t talk anymore, But I must stay and you must go; You have always been such a good friend to me, Through the thunder and the rain, And when you’re feeling […]

Spanish Train - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

There’s a Spanish train that runs between Quadalquivir and old Seville, And at dead of night the whistle blows, and people hear she’s running still… And then they hush their children back to sleep, Lock the doors, upstairs they creep, For it is said that the souls of the dead Fill that train ten thousand […]

Say Goodbye To It All - Lady in Red: The Very Best of Chris de Burgh

We took a boat over Lake Geneva. It was raining all night long, We were lucky and we saw no enemy, And came from Switzerland poor refugees, Far from the guns of war, We said goodbye to it all; They brought us in to a nurse’s station, Half a mile behind the lines, Oh Lord, […]
