Don't Tell Me

I'll stay with you until the end
I'll say you'll let me be your friend
I'll say you'll let me int he end
I just wanna be your friend

How can I be sure you're breaking all the rules
How can I be sure I should be high above
I'll climb the mountain, reaching for the skies
And all too soon I jump the moon and find I'm losing my mind

And don't tell me you're the howling wind
And don't tell me you're the moonlit star
And don't tell me you're the devil's friend
And don't tell me, no don't tell me I've gone too far

I didn't hear you as you left my room last night
You turned your back on me
I didn't hear you as you left my room last night
Please return and set me free

I'll climb the mountain, reaching for the skies
And all too soon I jump the moon and find the sun burns my eyes

And don't tell me you're the howling wind
And don't tell me you're the moonlit star
And don't tell me you're the devil's friend
And don't tell me, no don't tell me I've gone too far

No no no...
No no no...
I can't get a grip on...
I can't get a grip on...
I can't get a grip on... (you)
I can't get a grip on... no no I can't get a grip on!

I'll say you'll let me in the end
I'll say you'll let me be your friend
I've maybe asked this once before
Don't you love me anymore

The Game Above My Head

Someone touched me late last night 
Someone tried to tie me down 
Passing by at such a height 
Smashing down the laughing clown 

Don't tell me i'm looking well 
For the truth will never tell 
Cut me down, let me sleep 
Promises i'll never, never keep 

Something moved me in the night 
Someone tried to pin me down 
Asking questions, who was right 
Telling me i wear the crown 

Dont ask me whats on my mind 
For the truth you'll never ever find 
And don't tell lies no more 
There's nothing left to hide 
A clown can lose his foolish pride 

I tried to tell you 
So many times before 
Give me back my pride 
I could hardly ask for more! 

I tried in every way 
To get this through to you 
I missed by miles 
My message wont go through 

I tried in every way 
To get this through to you 
I missed by miles 
My message wont go through 

Dont ask me whats on my mind 
For the truth you'll never ever find 
And don't tell lies no more 
There's nothing left to hide 
A clown can lose his foolish pride 

Don't tell me i'm looking well 
For the truth will never tell 
Cut me down, let me sleep 
That's a promise i'll never, never keep 

Someone touched me late last night 
Someone tried to tie me down 
Something moved me in the night 
Someone tried to pin me down

Blind Vision

Refrain 1:
Blind hope, blind visions
Blind centre, one centre
Blind living and seeing
Blind hell, blind hell
Blind visions and no reasons
For action blind words

Blind visions and no reasons
No reasons for actions
In a dream when I'm reading pages full of words
The harder you look
It's getting hard, it's getting hard, it's not
A dream's a dream
In a dream when I'm reading pages
Pages full of words
It's, it's getting hard, it's not
It's not, it, it
It's getting hard
It's getting harder
It's getting hard

Hold me closer now, hold me closer
That's blind vision, blind vision
Push me harder now, harder push me harder
It's blind hell, blind hell
Keep me spinning round and round
Blind centre, blind centre
Now I'm turning miles above the ground
That's blind hell, blind hell, blind hell

(repeat refrain 1)

The Day Before You Came

I must have left my house at eight, because I always do
My train, I’m certain, left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morning paper going into town
And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so
The usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this I’m pretty sure it must have rained
The day before you came

I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day
Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away
At five I must have left, there’s no exception to the rule
A matter of routine, I’ve done it ever since I finished school
The train back home again
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then
Oh yes, I’m sure my life was well within it’s usual frame
The day before you came

Must have opened my front door at eight o’clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some chinese food to go
I’m sure I had my dinner watching something on tv
There’s not, I think, a single episode of dallas that I didn’t see
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then I must have read a while
The latest one by marilyn french or something in that style
It’s funny, but I had no sense of living without aim
The day before you came

And turning out the light
I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
The day before you came
