From the milky way in Orion's arm It's where you're from, In Orion's arm I saw your paintings On your bedroom wall From behind these cameras we saw your hurt And I saw my mother in the wounded deer So I got the postcard to keep her near Did he love you I can't pretend to know But we queued for hours so someone does Frida Kahlo, she cried for you Tried not to show it she cried for you Frida Kahlo, she cried for you It was pure and honest, simply cried for you

I am not one whos comfortable, natural Sorry, I know I am not close to this, apart of this, Sorry I know nothing I cannot guess I should not speak.

Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys

I wish I was a fisherman Tumblin' on the seas Far away from dry land And its bitter memories Casting out my sweet line With abandonment and love No ceiling bearin' down on me Save the starry sky above With light in my head You in my arms

I wish I was the brakeman On a hurtlin' fevered train Crashing headlong into the heartland Like a cannon in the rain With the beating of the sleepers And the burnin' of the coal Counting the towns flashing by In a night that's full of soul With light in my head You in my arms

I know I will be loosened From bonds that hold me fast That all the chains that hang around me Will fall away at last And on that fine and fateful day I will take thee in my hands I will ride on the train I will be the fisherman With light in my head You in my arms

April had showers and the mornins cut through ya Her father would kill you if you undressed his daughter In his house These are just some of the things you can never change

Winter and all it's sparkles It's hollow laughter We shook it off April the 22nd, it was the 1st day We thought about swimming

Cause somehow a year is enough to muster the courage It takes for a man to go waist high in icy water But it's just about worth it To see the itty bitty teenie weenie yellow polka dot bikinis

On captains hill we were drinking I bought a fire-log from tesco Bare white feet on dewy grass Heads were bangin in the morning

When we were walking back home You saw a dead dog on the bypass You couldn't leave him and you cried as we dragged him to the grass These are just some of the days you can never change

On the weekend the band played the songs That were easy to dance to But sometimes there's nowhere to go But the ghost estate houses to shelter from the cold

Cause we knew the builders left the keys to the window around the back

Heres to the dead dogs The scantily clad girls And the angry fathers of that year

Did you tell the moon about your sadness? Undress under her spell. You're only honest when she sees you Behind windowpanes when dawn draws near.

Did you tell the sun about your madness, About the time you took your gun? And all the bad things that you've done, It won't tell anyone.

Did you tell the birds that you've grown weary, Did you tell them you'll never leave? They didn't wait but did you see them One last time before they left?

Did you tell the sea that you feel empty? Did you tell the north star that you're lost? Did you tell your love that you were guilty? Did you tell the clock time's all you've got?

So go tell the moon about your sadness, Undress under her spell. You're only honest when she sees you Behind windowpanes when dawn draws near.

Floating in a hot air balloon I pull the cords above my head But I don’t need to pull them often The wind takes me most the way

Past the town over which I now float I’ve lived there for 24 years But I don’t want to talk about it I’m closer than I’ve ever been To the moon tonight

As I go drifting over valleys And scraping over hills Low lie the glowing car lights Like rivers full of stars

Like a big bellied ghost I float Among cotton clouds as they sleep Oh dear I’ve disturbed them severely Pay no mind because they always weep

I wish I had company A map reader to guide me From Ireland to Alaska, West Northwest I do believe

Now I howl lonelilly to the Atlantic As I lose sight of home Thundering white horses run abreast the waves Neath my hot air balloon

Goodbye forever I adored you But it’s just not enough With a distance so vast between us And I have only got This here hot air balloon

Another new song, this is the first time I've used drums in any of my recordings as well! Enjoy : )

Were you falling out backwards through a window pain? Were you crawling on your knees through a hurricane?

It was just a dream, just a dream I know.

Was he staring through your window on a stormy night? Was she standing at your bed by your bare white feet?

It was just a dream, just a dream I know.

Did her long blond hair get tangled up In the engine of her father’s fishing boat? Did you cut her hair, did she sink below the bow? Did she drift ashore pale and blue and cold?

Were you standing at your mirror in a bloody mess? Were you catching all your teeth as they drip right out?

It was just a dream, just a dream I know.

Were the bells ringing out like a warning sing Taking seizures in your bed as they held you down? It was just a dream, just a dream I know.
