"You See Colours" (2006)

You And Me lyrics - Delays

To the bitter end I have fought alone,
Now this cavalry is coming home,
Like a motorcade lost in tickertape,
I have felt my way to you again,
On any other day there'd be a marching band,
But I stole away before they cut me down,
What say we go, meet by the well?
Don't tell a soul, this is our time
And we can lay low tonight; no I don't have the will to fight,
My president or his designs; you & me coulda been fine, you & me were gonna be fine
Cos you knew me when I was wide awake,
Now I sleep all day, oh my mistake!
Oh any other day, there'd be a marching band,
But I stole away before the curtain fell,
What say we go, meet by the well?
Don't tell a soul, this is our time
Yeah we can lay low tonight; no I don't have the will to fight
My President or his designs; you & me coulda been fine, you & me were gonna be fine
In time, inside, here comes the falling rain,
In time, inside, here comes the pouring rain,
In time, inside, here comes the falling rain,
In time, inside, here comes the poison rain,
Yeah we can lay low tonight; no I don't have the will to fight
My President or his denials; you & me coulda been fine,
Oh we can lay low tonight; we can set the flag alight,
We're clawing back the time, when youth was on our side,
You & me coulda been fine, you & me were gonna be fine.

Valentine lyrics - Delays

I can see a hurricane tonight,
It keeps from my valentine,
This voodoo's doing me harm,
Ooh, ooh, raise the alarm,
Maybe, this is the moment to pray dear,
But I'd rather lay by your side,
Cos' millions are fighting their way here
Oh, oh, oh, tell me,
When did the water surround me?
But tell me, is that love in your eyes?
New Orleans'll tremble tonight,
With bleeding hearts and swaying lights,
A very modern machine,
wooh, wooh, is coming for me,
Maybe, this is the moment to say dear,
I thought I'd have you by now,
But sentiment got in the way dear,
Oh, oh, oh, tell me,
When did the water surround me?
But tell me, is that love in your eyes?
Oh, oh, oh, tell me,
When did the water surround me?
But tell me, is that, is that love...
I can see a hurricane tonight,
It keeps me from my valentine,
A very modern machine,
wooh, wooh, is coming for me,
Tell me,
When did the water surround me?
But tell me, is that love in your eyes?
Oh, oh, oh, tell me,
When did the water surround me?
And tell me, is that, is that love?
Just tell me the truth it makes me feel better,
Love in your eyes, it makes me feel better.

Tell me the truth it makes me feel better,
Love in your eyes, it makes me feel better. [X3]

This Town's Religion lyrics - Delays

This towns', this towns' religion,
I don't get it; I just don't get it,
Shoot first, think last, forgive me,
I don't get it, but somehow I'm still right here,
And this is the world we made, (it's) too late to start again,
But at least I know where I belong
This town, this towns' religion,
I don't get it; I just don't get it,
Drink more, talk less, so guilty,
I don't get it, but somehow I'm still right here,
And this is the world we made, (it's) too late to start again,
But at least I know where I belong, the face don't fit but we can run,
Whatever must you think of me, Simone? Not offerin' to guide you safely home?
The stolen cars that tear the field apart, they're bearing down on us, we must depart
The lovers in the photograph have gone; the lovers in the photograph have flown,
Because no lover could believe in, this town, this town's religion,
And this is the world we made, strung out on street parades,
But at least I know where I belong, the face don't fit so we should run.

Sink Like A Stone lyrics - Delays

Sink like a stone, into the deep that's where we'll go,
Tides turning home; season came down, down comes the cold,
But oh no, hey, where did you go?
Oh no, I'm calling,
Don't let your heart break; this is your finest hour,
Don't let your heart break; it makes me feel like dying so I,
Sink like a stone (on my heels) and into the green, letting love go,
But oh no, hey, where did you go?
Oh no, I'm calling,
Don't let your heart break; this is your finest hour,
Don't let your heart break; it makes me feel like dying so I
Don't let your heart break; this is your finest hour,
Don't let your heart break; it makes me feel like dying so I

Too Much In Your Life lyrics - Delays

Darling come home, I never wanted you to go,
I thought this space would make me grow,
But I'm not happy yet,
Darling, I'm bored; I don't hear voices anymore,
I was content to be ignored,
And I'm not happy yet,
There's too much in your life to fear,
There's too much in your life to ever know what living feels like,
Darling, come home, I over rated this alone,
Intrepid start, but now it shows,
That I'm not happy yet,
'Cos there's too much in your life to fear,
There's too much in your life, for real,
There's too much in your life,
To ever know what living feels like,
In there somewhere, the myth of a
Soul in torment, one year too old,
But there you are, there you are, in the lead, in the lead,
Going faster, going faster, than you need,
But there is smoke in the background, hope in the background.

Winter's Memory Of Summer lyrics - Delays

Faster, sarah lets run,
From disaster, sarah come on,
And take your heart from your sleeve,
Leave behind the bruising strings,
That made him old before you could get hold,
(and) now winters memory of summer is cold i say,
Faster, sarah lets run,
From disaster, sarah come on,
And take your heart from your sleeve,
It’s a lock to a thief,
Now here we are with the scars on your arm,
But i ask you, i ask you,
Don’t you think that we’ve found l.o.v.e.?
So don’t lose it for me, we’ve got l.o.v.e.?
No, don’t lose it,
And take your heart from your sleeve,
Leave behind the failing trees,
That crowd you so, turned the neighbourhood gold,
Until winters memory of summer was cold,
Believe me, believe me,
We’ll run again, run again, run again,
Night, all night, all night,
Oh i can hardly wait until we get there…
Beneath the morning sun a crowd is forming,
No i can hardly wait until we get there…
And see my favourite face awake in summer.

Given Time lyrics - Delays

Slow, slow me down,
Slow, slow me down,
Given time I’d make amends,
For what I have become since I’ve been away,
Grown a map about my eyes,
You never let me down, read between the lines,
You speak slowly, I can only shake,
Slow, slow me down,
Slow, slow me down,
Given time I’d find a place,
To wash away the dirt; soak it up all day,
This port town could fit the bill,
But you have got the keys; you have got the pills,
I’ve been drifting, almost sleeping deep,
Slow, slow me down,
Slow, slow me down,
She said cherish me, before the winter blows through me,
There really is no mystery,
We got this hour so why not use it…
Slow, slow me down,
Slow, slow me down.

Hideaway lyrics - Delays

No I don’t think it’s a good thing,
Without a second thought you put your hand on my shoulder,
Without a second look you took me miles away,
What happened after that, I couldn’t see and I lost you?
And I stumbled around until I found you again,
Cos’ you are my only hideaway, you make the world seem bigger,
You are my only hideaway, you do,
Without a second thought you found the words to explain me,
Without a second look you tried to open my mind,
Well I know that you are waiting and your patience is failing,
But I know that I’ll get there in a matter of time,
Cos’ you are my only hideaway, you make the world seem bigger,
Oh you are my only hideaway, you do,
And so tonight we’ll set the motion right,
And so tonight, we’ve time to make it alright.

Lillian lyrics - Delays

She is deafeningly pretty, echoes are everywhere,
So I drink to gain her pity, but she don’t care,
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone,
Never alone,
In my dreams I fail to see why you cannot come home with me (I),
Way lay, scheme and play,
Oh, I could touch you, but you’d shimmy away,
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone,
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone
Anyway, any day, anyway, what if I wait forever?
(Cos’) In my dreams we make a scene to end all scenes with lust supreme (but),
Way lay, scheme and play,
(It’s) traces of you that trouble my view tonight,
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone,
I love you Lilly but you’re never alone.

Out Of Nowhere lyrics - Delays

You came into frame out of nowhere
Pulled me through the trees to the river
Now I’m living each day like I’m living the last
And we could make it upstream if it wasn’t so fast
Coz you’re out of sight, out of nowhere
The evidence points to a matter of choice
C’mon pick me, pick me, for the flight
Out of nowhere tonight, tonight
I found more than anything that to give into love was a way to begin,
Bowing down to literature
I’m living each day like I’m living the last
And we could make it upstream if it wasn’t so fast
Coz you’re out of sight, out of nowhere
The evidence points to a matter of choice
C’mon and pick me, pick me, for the flight
Out of Nowhere tonight, tonight, tonight.

Waste Of Space lyrics - Delays

Like a millionaire, but with nothing to spare,
All this time on my hands doesn’t go anywhere,
(But) before you think to cry, I know that…
It’s not right, that your there, with your love, going spare,
You’re like a waste of space in an empty room,
Just hoping, somebody gets to you soon,
(The way you) run around is not so clever,
I warn you, honey I love you,
With a heart full of song, I will drive you away,
This I’ve known all along but I don’t think I’d blame,
You for passing on…
(‘Cos) It’s not right, that you care so much more, than I care,
I’m just a waste of space, and I rarely move,
Here’s hoping, somebody gets to me soon,
The way you run around is not so clever,
I warn you honey, I love you
Centre stage is yours to take,
If you can lose this waste of space

Wanderlust lyrics - Delays

Can you
Hear that knocking in your soul
No, you don't listen
Can you hear that knocking
Overload
No, you don't listen
Never see the high beyond the low
No wonder, you lay
Twitching
Do you share the rush to be alone
Come over, we'll go missing
We'll go where
There's no snow
We'll go and they won't know
Just please don't give me your word
Do
Do do, do do do do do do ah ah ah
Can you hear that knocking in your soul
No, you don't
Listen
We'll go where there's no snow
Just please don't give me your word
Just please
Don't give me your word
Do do do, do do do do do do ah ah ah
All that matters is the
Music tonight
Just please don't give me your,
All that matters is the music,
But you
Don't listen
Well, we'll run and run
Until we start again
Yea we'll we'll run run and
Run away
Yea well, we'll run and run
Until we start again
Yea we'll run run and run
Away

Nearer Than Heaven lyrics - Delays

You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen
The people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside
That summer's on the
Way

Bullet took it easy dollar lit the room
Monsters making the evening news
Packing up
A round trip, I get in the way

Now I know that
You are nearer than heaven
I get the
Feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when
We're all inside
That summer's on the way

We could talk forever,
Nothing would get
Done
Stake your claim on the morning sun
I get in the way

Now I see that
You are
Clearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go
Forever descending
It's when we're all inside
That summer's on the way
Yeah
Yeah.....

Long Time Coming lyrics - Delays

Tore it up and walked away
Why'd you wanna go do that for?
Threw your Lego in
The lake
Why'd you wanna go do that for?

And you're a long time coming
A long time
Coming home
Do you see me reeling off the lines
I've seen your, I've seen your
Eyes

How can you grow old
You were my triumph?
How can you grow old
You were my
Triumph?

Turned your face into the squall
Why'd you wanna go do that for?
You carved
Your name into the wall
Why'd you wanna go do that for?

And you're a long time
Coming
A long time coming home
Do you see me reeling off the lines
I've seen your, I've
Seen your eyes

How can you grow old
You were my triumph?
How can you grow old
You were
My triumph?

Bedroom Scene lyrics - Delays

Underneath the table for shade,
I leave you to the living again
Arabesque a
Flowery grave,
I watch a real star winning

Over this twilight, shouting at
Jesus
Absolute closeness, could be beneath us

(if you)
Lose yourself through
Touch
Lose yourself in Love
It leaves me nothing to know
Just a stationary role

(in your) Bedroom scene

Maybe what I'm trying to say is
I lost you in translation
To lover
From the hand of a friend
Too much too hard to mention
(so don't)

Lose yourself
Through touch
Lose yourself in love

No Ending lyrics - Delays

I've
Seen you hanging from blistering skies
Holding yourself with a grace that defies
Law after
Law as well spit in the eye
Fall on me when you come down

You've seen me panic
And
Kick without sight
Of any danger except what I might
Know of myself and
See in you
Tonight
Fall on me when you come down

The air is thin and hard to breath,
With
Sweetness that you lost to me
Despite this noose around our kiss,
I try to tell myself
This is
No ending

Seeing you buzzing from flickering signs
Bringing on warnings of
Incoming fire
Blood on your hands
From the tongue of a liar
Fall on me when you come
Down

The air is thin and hard to breath,
With sweetness that you lost to me
Despite
This noose around our kiss,
I try to tell myself this is
No ending
No ending

Leaving
Alone and
I see you're still breathing
Head out of sight
But the neon's
Deceiving,
There is no danger of you
Getting anywhere here

I know I'm prone to rushing
In with
No pretence of listening
Despite this noose around our kiss,
I try to tell myself
This is
No ending. No ending
Fall on me when you come down

You Wear The Sun lyrics - Delays

Oh
Hey baby there's something wrong
You burnt away, you wear the sun,
And maybe I slept too
Long
And missed the game and now you're gone
You wear the sun

If I could I would leave
You alone

And baby, put down your gun
And turn away you wear the sun
Maybe I should
Have told you I'm no fun
Before P.M. and now you're gone
You wear the sun

If I could
I would leave you alone

There's a daisy chain tying me
Down to the field of
Play
Ooh
Such an open face,
You're leaving me nothing
But hope to chase
Ooh
You wear
The sun

Hey Girl lyrics - Delays

Hey girl
Where in the world
Did you come from
Hey girl where in the world
Do you belong
(I said)
Hey girl watching you
Walk is like a dream
Hey girl you got a nerve and
You sure got
Me

As I wanted, singing lost and found
Like a fever running,
We could clear this
Town

(I said) Hey girl where in the world
Did you come from
Hey girl nobody knows where
You belong

So why don't you tell me
You're hanging above me
There's room
Everywhere
And I can't walk on air

Hey girl

(I said) Hey girl where in the
World
Did you come from
Hey girl never return cause you belong

I said Hey
Girl...

Stay Where You Are lyrics - Delays

Tell everybody I'm leaving,
Not treading water today
I've left the spoons in the
Backroom,
It's better ending this way

But don't worry, I'll be there
Unless you try
To gain my defences
Don't worry I'll be there
Unless you walk away

Stay where you
Are
Stay where you are

Tell everybody I'm leaving,
Not treading water today
I've
Left the spoons in the backroom,
It's better ending this way

But don't worry, I'll be
There
Unless you try to gain my defences
Don't worry I'll be there
Unless you walk
Away

Stay where you are
Stay where you are

But don't worry, I'll be there
Unless
You try to gain my defences
Don't worry I'll be there
Unless you walk away

Stay where
You are
Stay where you are

There's Water Here lyrics - Delays

Don't look down, looks like trouble
Distant sound, must be trouble
All that I
Have learnt
Goes out the window
When I'm not home

Relocate to ice and idle notions
Of
Misplacement, traces of some other
Sound is rushing up to meet me
Cos I'm not home, I'm
Not home

There's water here to last all year
Just don't rush me don't make me
Crawl

Can I have another day to think
Can I take the shade beneath the trees

There's
Water here to last all year
Just don't rush me don't make me crawl
To
You...

Satellites Lost lyrics - Delays

This satellites lost,
Where has the fire gone
Down deeper he knows,
There's
Still a chance to find it
But should he stay lost,
You are the reason you are the
Cause
This satellite's lost,
But I know that he wants you

I know you're there,
I can
Hear you breathe
It only takes a minute

To get yourself lost watching the day
Dissolve
Down deeper he knows,
There's still a chance to find it

I know you're there,
I can hear you breathe
It only takes a minute
And though you're there you can surely
Leave
It only takes a minute
Oh no

Nobody's gonna wait for you

One Night Away lyrics - Delays

There's nothing in the morning,
Just flowers and a feeling
That yesterday was
Stalling for time
To let the scene in

But you know how everything grows
And you know
The feeling is love
But you're one night away
You're one night away

The snow has
Started falling and
Covered our graffiti
I wander through the city and
Find we're
Stealing evening

But you know how everything grows
And you know the feeling is love
But
You're one night away
You're one night away

The feeling is Love...

On lyris - Delays

On

I can see you, I
Can see you
On and on and on we'll go until we freeze
On and on and on because we like
It

Bad Moon Rising lyrics - Delays

I see the bad moon rising.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
I see bad times today.

[CHORUS:]
Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.

I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

[CHORUS]
All right!

Hope you got your things together.
Hope you are quite prepared to die.
Looks like we're in for nasty weather.
One eye is taken for an eye.

Christine lyrics - Delays

Christine - Still walking at me
Still talking at me
Christine - Such a sense of loss
and the baby cried
Christine
Christine

And the whole world dragged us down
The whole world turned aside

Christine - You're in deep, pristine
- With a god-like glow
Christine - Christine - Heart and the glory and me
Chaos and the big sea

Christine - Still walking at me
Still talking at me
Christine
Christine
Christine

And the whole world dragged us down
Not a sonnet not a sound
And the whole world turned aside
The cruelest hand just turned an eye

Christine

Lost In A Melody lyrics - Delays

Stop, you wouldn't wanna waste it
Think of a dove
Oh how could you misplace it
No you can't replace it

Run run run run
We should get in before the setting of the sun
Lost in a melody
That which I should've done I did not do
And now the song is sung

Stop, there's red upon the rapids
Birthday or none, the consequence is tragic
Smaller than tears, heavy the ocean
Little blue flowers, faces of georgia
Bathe on the rocks, bathe in the spring

Run run run run
We should get in before the setting of the sun
Lost in a melody
That which I should've done I did not do
And now the song is sung

Panic Attacks lyrics - Delays

Sometimes I feel dizzy and I don't know why
But my head spins the opposite way to the sky
Can't sit down
Can't stand up
Think I've run out of luck

Last night I was trying to think of your name
But my head was still clouded and you were to blame
Where are you?
Ah?
Where were you?

But what are the chances of you going nowhere?
And what are the chances of making you cry?

These panic attacks helped me breathe until now
Breathe until now

These panic attacks helped me breathe until now
My heart just skipped a beat
This is it
Something's found
I feel weak
I'm brand new
Who am I?
Where are you?
Ah?

But what are the chances of you going nowhere?
And what are the chances of making you cry?

These panic attacks helped me breathe until now
Breathe into now

Your girl - she's far away
Your town - it's far away
Your girl is far away
Never fear [x3]

These Days lyrics - Delays

I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to.

I've stopped my rambling,
I don't do too much gambling
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think about
How all the changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I'll see another highway.

I had a lover,
I don't think I'll risk another
These days, these days.
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing so long.
La la la la la, la la.

I've stopped my dreaming,
I won't do too much scheming
These days, these days.
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten.
Please don't confront me with my failures,
I had not forgotten them.

Tonite lyrics - Delays

The street lights are shining bright
The billboards are shedding their light
And my crowd's hanging around
Tonite

There's a charge in the air
It's kind of electric out there
And we're all out on the town

Action - gonna track it down
Gonna turn some heads
Tonite

There's nothing
There's no one
To stand in our way

Get dressed up
And messed up
Blow our cares away

Our mind's set on seeing
This night through 'til day
We rule the streets tonite
Until the morning (light)

The boulevard's crowded and loud
It's time for excitement right now
There's no better world to be found
If there was
We'd give it all for
For a lifetime like
Tonite
