Take In The Sun (Brough) Inside the open air on Sunday Cruising would go down well, if only Clouds overhead in turn Would head downstream Outside on picnic lawns so green Eating 'til half past three, it seems skies overhead so blue Would shine so clean So let's just stay here Take in the sun and dream of distant rain So let's remain here Take in the sun and send cold winds away Falling asleep in light that dazzles Like it the way your mind unravels Waking in time to see it's time for tea Rising above a tree off yonder Sun in the sky, it seems would ponder How in the world did things get so serene And we'll get by and maybe see another sunny day |
|
Circus Kids (Brough) Wicked in ways, I don't know how many ways The circus kids have come to our town Riding a bike 'cross the heads of the crowd Close one eye they might land upon you Dizzy and dazed I see a grin ear to ear The circus kids won't be back this way Ask them to stay I think they're leaving today Clowning around, can you really blame them? And did you see them fly overhead? Say did you wonder why they're not dead? |
|
Tears Were Blue (Brough) We used to call you baby blue When you cried We only called you baby blue 'Cause when you cried your tears were blue We used to say you had it made But we lied We only said you had it made 'Cause when we lied you had it made We used to call you a star And maybe you are Did we try too hard to make you a star? |
|
Welcome To My World (Brough) We can drive in my car I'll take you somewhere nice to some place far We can go to a show Where there's people you know They can come along it's only fair Hey there Welcome to my world Won't you come along Just for a Ride to anywhere somewhere Ride to anywhere nowhere Where we can close our eyes It's only fair Would you come for the day Would you come anyway Where we can talk for a while Until next year |

Inside (Brough) Found a shallow grave That I can lie my head in Cold and dark, there's no one Hour by hour It seems to grow a little deeper inside Makes no difference Now that we're a little older Think we're still just the same But the fear It seems to grow a little stronger inside In the end I guess it seems a little clearer Think it's better that way Still I like to dream Of how we could of made it inside She gave it everything that she had |
|
Anybody Know (Brough) Left my friends in the rain Don't they even know That it's started to snow Was it something I said That's keeping you in my head Catch the second last wave Hanging ten so it seems With no particular dream Was it something I said That's keeping you in my bed Everyday it's the same thing Every day it's the same You're doing me wrong |
|
Old And Blue (Brough) Someone should remind them of the good inside a memory Where those crystal hearts still shatter often Someone should remind them of how good it was to show that Certainty of everything was nothing new Sometime when they're so lost In the sound of magic thinking Then the legend in their minds may tumble Sometime when they're through with asking how the hell it happened They might stop and start anew with old and blue |
|
Keeping You In Mine (Brough) Let me sing you to sleep Let me sing in your dreams Let me sing when you wake Just let me know when the tune breaks Keeping you in mine Let's leave it at that Keeping you in mine There's no going back Let me help you to drink Does it help you to think Does it give you the strength To let us know where your mind goes |
|
Sunrise (Brough) In the sunrise, there's nothing left to say Raise your glass to save your life We wish you well, may good health prevail In the sunrise, there's nothing left to say Take a partner by the hand And spin around 'til good health prevails In the sunrise, there's nothing left to say While you're gone, we'll play a song of Love and tears and maybe you might hear Raise yourself It's going to be your sunrise soon So let yourself shine |
|
Save My Life (Brough) Up and down, there seems to be no day of reason Wrap me 'round your little finger This time I don't mind 'Round and 'round there's going to be A brand new season After all we've been through Don't you try to save my life I'm already dead So let it go this time Say your peace, then close the door Don't stand there crying Catch your breath, it ain't that bad There's always living lies |
|
Slide On By (Brough) Got living to do, it doesn't need to be said Want something to go on There's no light up ahead Might as well pull the curtain Might as well stay in bed Lie back so forgive me While I start to collapse Comes as no surprise It happens often Got time to consider All that needs to be done Sit back and forgive me if I start to relax It's just that I don't get here often Slide on by Let me out at the end Will it come slowly Slide on by When will it start to begin Yes I'm still waiting Slide on by Let me out at the end |
