I wanted you to know
This world’s no good for us
Come on I’ ll make it clear
Hey enough’s enough
Yeah things got out of hand
We’ ll need a little time
The position is clear
Things are not alright
And I follow, you down
Lost lying All alone, around
Maybe believing
There’s some empathy, in our lives
We deserve a little luck
We could use the extra run
Lost and on - the Ghostline
Hey I wanted you to know
We don’t understand
I’ll go get the car
Lets elope again
We lost a little time
Things didn’t go to plan
The words are from a song
I can hear the band
And I follow, you down
Lost lying All alone, around
Maybe believing
There’s some empathy in our lives
We deserve a little luck
We could use the extra run
Lost and on - the Ghostline
Falling for you and I
Falling for you and I
Falling for you and I
Falling for you.... and I
Ghostline Ghostline Ghostline

Northerly

Eastern lights, these are eastern lights
TT652 , is home to you
Eastern lights, these are eastern lights
A northerly will bring, you back to me
Eastern lights, these are eastern lights
AM, 3.45 Gate 9
Eastern lights, these are eastern lights
A Northerly will bring, you back to me
Begin, begin, begin, again
There is no love
And there is certainly, no end
And tell me now, do you remember me? The magnificent defeat
Tell those bones To bring you home
And lay you next to me
Eastern lights, Eastern lights
These are eastern lights (eastern lights)
Eastern lights, Eastern lights
These are eastern lights,
These are eastern lights,
These are eastern lights,
These are eastern, eastern, eastern lights

Back in 1994
I just loved you more
Back when we were arse out poor
I just loved you more - she said
In the long grass, it was just us
In the warm night, take me home alright
Any way now, you can say now
In the park light, we can dream tonight
Under the fingernail moon
And Passion Pop light
She said these are ways to burn
This is ours tonight
Back on that long distance call
She said ‘I fell love’
As for 1994
I don’ t remember much more
But she said
In the long grass, it was just us
In the warm night, take me home alright
Any way now, you can say now
Any old lie, I believe tonight
And as the fingernail moon
Crashed through Passion Pop light
She said these are ways to burn
And this is ours tonight
To the Gods of Jardine Park
We toast the sky tonight
We wait for your return
Just send us a sign
Tonight,
Tonight, Tonight Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, Tonight Tonight, tonight, tonight.

By How Far
05:27
|

Effortless and hopeless,
In the same breath
You and I , we’re on side
I dont know, I don’t see the end of it
But we’ ll find a way, you and I
Oh come on love I see something
You just let them know, one more time
Even though, we stay in it
Love like ours, it comes so hard
All I know, is we can’t win for losing
And we'll need to know, by how far
Sure we can, we look for a solution
Some regional, memorial, respite
One thing for sure,
There’s no sign of anyone
But we’ ll go again, you and I
Oh come on love I see through it
You just let them know, one more time
Even though, we stay in it
Love like ours, it comes so hard
All I know, is we’re behind some margin
And I need to know, by how far
Here we go, one more time with feeling
In a future past, underlined
You just say it’s so
You know I’ ll start believing
Just a dream apart, you and I
Oh come on love, I see sunsets
You just let them know, one more time
Even though, we stay in it
Love like ours, it comes so hard
All I know, is we can’t win for losing
And we’ re gonna need to know, by how far
Falling around
Falling around
Falling around, around, around

Central H

Lover, please come over
Here without a sound
We’ll think I’ll brighten up the corners
Central Hotel bound
She said I do not believe it
Is that your third?
Number 4 for Georgie Moore
Here’s what I heard
She said the heart is a hunter and it runs
Is this the part, where we start
Giving up
All the love inside of us, every sound
Have one more for what’s in store
Loves lost and found
She said I do not believe it , not a word
but you can always try you luck with
Some other Koongal girl
She said the heart, is a hunter, and it runs
Is this the part, where we start,
Giving up
Who knew the ground would be so hard
Who knew the ground would be so hard
And let the night come to you
There will always be those
Who say that they know
A kid who used to carry 'the harp' At Callaghan Park
You remember who you are
Not anyone can be
A man who rode a horse into a bar
In 1970 - 1970 - 1970 - 1970
She said the heart is a hunter, and it runs
Is this the part, where we start
Giving up
Who knew the ground would be so hard
Who knew the ground would be so hard
1970 - 1970 - 1970 - 1970
Went so hard, my heart would break,
I know that was my first mistake, I know
Went so hard, my heart would break,

The Blue Dress
04:31
|

Hey I saw you, in the corner
The blue dress it was on
We can always, wait for someday
Someday later on
And I know our, conversation
As mundane as it was
Well I felt a, little better To know your light was on
Hey we tried to, comprehend it
And found sof t ground again
We were always, set for one way
But some things don’ t go plan
And I do no even
Try to understand
You just sing the song
I’ll work out what I can
What I can
As the sun came, with the morning
And cue our time to leave
Like Red Canna, I remember
You love, Georgia O’ Keefe
And I do not even
Try to understand
You just sing the song
I’ll work out what I can What I can
Golden fields of, converstation
Left us here at, Windsor Station
Lead us to our dreams she said
Oh, lead us to our dreams
To our dreams
In my garden I, see you
In my garden I, see you
In my garden I, see you
In my garden I, see you
And you’ ll see it too, and you’ ll see it too

Black Kites
03:34
|

Two black kites, circle round, through the quiet sky
Well you know that we, will always, believe
They carve a line, in the pale, blue, nervous light
Well you know the song, it’s one that we, can sing
As the night, bends and winds, past the Berimah Line
Can you please just play, the tape again, for me
Come on love, we can't lose
Shine like the Silver Jews
We wait, for rain
Mackeral skies, guide the way, through, the chanelled light
Our departure time, 1.45 , tonight
And as the dry, rolls away, still our love will stay
Can you please just play, the tape again, for me
Come on love, we can't lose
Shine like the Silver Jews
We wait, for rain
She said there’s nothing out there
Just the sunlight, in your eyes
All this way together
Come on, you and I
Sure we’ re sorry now
But we’re alright
All this way together
Hey now, you and I
Come on love, we can't lose
Clyde Bramley’s silver boots
Will take, us away
Come on love, we can't lose
Carson McCullers
She will hear, god today
Let your love lie lost, and incomplete
It’s music to me

For A Place
05:22
|
|||
Oh love, I fear the end now
You know the whole things
Coming down
Yeah we know now
Hey yeah, we had some bad luck
I wish we’d had that
For a place
It was ours any way
Even though we never
Hit the heights,I thought we’d reach
Any way that means nothing to me
I’ll have it for a place
The harbour lights, have left us
Somehow we let them
Slip away
To sea again
The scorecards are unanimous
Just like in
Ali / Norton 3
‘The Black Hercules’
Even though we never
Hit the heights, I thought we’d reach
Any way that means nothing to me
And when you hit those highs boy
Let them know, know you’re alive
Do it like you planned it
You dont understand
You’ re alive, alive, alive
I’ ll have it for a place
Even though we never
Hit the heights, I thought we’d reach
In the end that means nothing, to me
In the end that means nothing, to me
In the end that means nothing, to me
I’ ll have it for a place
IN THE END - IN THE END - IN THE END
Tonight I see myself, I dream

Motorcade
03:23
|

As we pulled into the motorcade
She said turn your light s on babe You know what to do
And sure we didn’t talk much more
These things roll back into shore
One into two
But we rode in, seperate cars
Oh, it was better for the both of us
In spite of, what we knew You knew I’d always
Wait to you
An interview on the Rocky mall
Some Youtube shit, from ‘94
I prayed he’d talk to you
He walked to Lyndon’s Hair Salon
Somehow that day now you weren’t on
Just a word would do
But he only, walked on by
Oh, you know I would never lie
In spite of, what we knew
You know that I’d always
Wait for you
As the day for us, began to fade
The procession it just rolled away
From the rear view
And we rode in seperate cars
Oh, it was better for the both of us
In spite of, what we knew
Well you knew I’d always
Wait for you
As we pulled out of the motorcade
She said turn your light s off babe
You know what to do

I Waited To See you
04:16
|
|||
I waited to see you Said my loves a lie
There’s no way to be true
Come on, you’ re alright
She said, you’ re not around
When I need you most
There’s no love, no love, no love
And the world came crashing to you
Just like any other day
Well the words came out
And yeah, you got nothing to say
All hail to you, well did you
Ever see so much, unhappiness
That it would come to you
And we saw ourselves, in light of it
Left us in a lie, we don’t see, the end of it
We left our dreams alone, on the line
I waited to see you
Hey I need you now
Yeah the sun it could break through
There’s no use, for it now
You said, you’ re not around
Hey enough’s enough
There’s no love, no love, no love
And the world came crashing to you
Just like any, other day
Fuck the words came out
And yeah, you got nothing to say
All hail to you, well did you,
Ever see so much unhappiness
Love will come to you
And we caught ourselves, in spite of it
Left us in a lie, we dont see the end of it
Fear, loss, alone, on the line
Hey we leave our dreams on the Sunlander tonight
Hey we leave our dreams on the Sunlander tonight
Hey we leave our dreams on the Sunlander tonight
Tonight, we leave our dreams

One Dreamer Down
03:34
|

Hey it’s our love, let this be our love
We send a line out, to the sea
And in side our, inside our hide out
We find we are now, a dreamer down
Say it to me know
Only love, is not enough
We wait, we wait, we wait
If only things could be the same
Today, Today, Today
Say it to me now
Say it to me now
Say it to me now
Say it to me know
Even if you’ re far away
Remember this for me
You are one of us
With love CD
And youu know I, will call up trunk dial
We send our whole love, born to dream
Only love, is not enough
We wait, we wait, we wait
If only things could be the same
Today, Today, Today
Say it to me now
Say it to me now
Say it to me now
Say it to me now
Even if you’re far away
Remember this for me
You are one of us
With love CD
It's all we need
You said to me
It's all we need (even if we say, we are far away)
Site unseen
And it’s our love, Let this be our love
We find we are now
One dreamer down

Pledge A
03:30
|
|||
In this world, where you need every friend
It’s a gold, liquor dream
Ah good morning regret
From this point, over sea, we can say
We don’t need, anyone
We don’t want, anything
Go hard now
Go long
Go away
It’s all love, you know
You don’ t need, to explain
And go in time
Oh, it’s never enough
Just to be in love
And you won’t get to decide this time
It’s alright
You’ re with us
Just wait here, where you’re safe, and OK
Every thing, given now
Will be taken away
Say farewell, to the world, that you want
A s you sparkle and fade
I could not, love you more
Pledge allegiance
To the stars
To the stars
It’s all love, you know
You don't need, any one
And go in time
Fuck, it’s never enough
Just to be in love
And you don’t get to decide this time
It’s a gift
You were right
You were right, you were right!
