(kirsty maccoll/mark e. nevin) I watch you lie asleep Watch you breathing And as you fall and rise Like the tears in my eyes I know you’ll be leaving I’ve earned all the pain I suppose it was worth it I’d do it again but i just couldn’t face it And if i see you […]
(kirsty maccoll/david ruffy) Behind a burning bush he’s waiting Like a sleepless night So silent and so strong I know that i must push push push Until the morning light Don’t make me wait too long Till i open my eyes Open the door Take a walk outside And feel the sun Fall on my […]
(kirsty maccoll/mark e. nevin) The last of england’s spoiled brats Grand order of the gutter rats A big fish in a public house You’re never going to learn to shut your mouth A silly pseudo lager lout With nothing much to shout about Spent hours looking in the mirror Trying to perfect the perfect pout […]
