From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea

“From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea”

(This one is for Daniel, my long lost Best Friend, Lover and my “Brother”. Farewell in the great beyond and may we meet again once I too cross over the threshhold where we can greet each other like old friends... I miss you dearly!).



Every Time We Do This
I Fall For Him
Wave After Wave After Wave
It's All For Him
I Know This Can't Be Wrong I Said
(And I'll Lie To Keep Him Happy)
As Long As I Know
That You Know
That Today
I’ll Belong Right Here With You
Right Here With You…

And So We Watch The Sun Come Up
From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea
And He Listens Like His Head's On Fire
Like He Wants To Believe In Me
So I Try
Put Your Hands
To The Sky

Surrender
Remember
We'll Be Here Forever
We'll Never Say Goodbye...

I've Never Been So
Colourfully-See-Through-Head Before
I've Never Been So
Wonderfully-Me-You-Want-Some-More

And All I Want
Is To Keep It Like This
You And Me Alone
A Secret Kiss
Don't Go Home
Don't Go Away
Don't Let This End
Please Stay

But Just For Today

Never Never Never

Never Never Never

Never Never Never
Let Me Go He Says
Hold Me Like This
For A Hundred Thousand
Million Days

Suddenly He Stops
Looks Down At My Breaking Face
Why Do You Cry
What Did I Say
It's Just Rain I Smile

Brushing My Tears Away...

I Wish I Could Just Stop
I Know Another Moment Will Break My Heart
Too Many Tears
Too Many Times
Too Many Years
I've Cried
Over You
Over You
Over You

How Much More
Can We Use It Up
Drink It Dry
Take This Drug
Looking For Something
Forever Gone
But Something
We Will Always Want

Why Why Why
Are You Letting Me Go He Says
I Feel You Pulling Back
I Feel You Changing Shape...

And Just As I'm Breaking Free
He Hangs Himself In Front Of Me
Strips His Clothes Like Rags To The Floor
And Hands In The Sky
Surrenders It All...

I Wish I Could Just Stop
I Know Another Moment
Will Break My Heart
Too Many Tears
Too Many Times
Too Many Years
I've Cried For You

It's Always The Same
Wake Up In The Rain
Head In Pain
Hung In Shame
A Different Name
Same Old Game
Love In Vain

And Miles And Miles And Miles

And Miles And Miles And Miles
Away - From Home Again...
