Find A Home (New Forest Shaker) lyrics - Delays

One more year of digging here
And we're alight in heaven; we're alight in heaven
If we bare the stones and stares
Then we're alight in heaven, we're alight in heaven

Mother says to hold our tongues; we are the chosen ones,
And we answer to no one,
Same dream I'm always having,
Like shivering, shivering, shivering...

Find a home amongst the trees,
Bend your branches over me,
Find a home, defy the freeze,
Dance around the rosaries...

Faith alone must clear this snow
Or we'll have doubted heaven; we'll have doubted heaven
It's finisterre for dancing bears
If we have doubted heaven; we have doubted heaven

Everyone I left behind, they think I left my mind under Mesmer, sola fide
Same dream I'm always having,
Like shivering, shivering, shivering...

Find a home amongst the trees,
Bend your branches over me,
Find a home; defy the freeze, and glow,

Find a home...

Oh I can row, I can row, I can row back home,
Or we can lay, we can lay, we can lay in sway.

The Lost Estate lyrics - Delays

For three days I wandered, defeated, asunder,
In winter abundant, I lost the path to Sainte-Agathe,
And finding my footfall, I tripped on a fable,
A cage for an angel and found my fate in this domain

Now I'm home...

Why don't you ask me to stay?
I want nobody but you,
Don't let this hour get in the way,
I need asylum, you need asylum too

For three days I haunted a line through a forst,
The breadcrumbs, they vanised
And left me here in winter reign,

Now I'm home...

Why don't you ask me to stay?
I want nobody but you,
Don't let this hour get in the way,
I need asylum, you need asylum too

Now, it's too far to make it home,
Now, it's too far to make it home,
Why don't you ask me to stay?

Shanghaied lyrics - Delays

Money in the bank ain't worth what it was since the bullion sank in a pool of sharks,
Shanghaied, shanghaied,
And I don't wanna wait for the banks to break,
And the waved to close on our perfect place,
Shanghaied, shanghaied

But I don't see your face anymore
Throw your knuckles down to the floor
Why do you have to lay awake?
Why do you pray?
'Cos there is passion going to waste
And you'd let loving die in your haste
Why do you have to lay awake?
Why do you pray?
To be on your own, to be on your own,

You took a knife to my life but as long as you say your sorry,
You took the sand from my hand but as long as you say you care,

But I don't see your face anymore
Throw your knuckles down to the floor
Why do you have to lay awake?
Why do you pray?
'Cos there is passion going to waste
And you'd let loving die in your haste
Why do you have to lay awake?
Why do you pray?
To be on your own, to be on your own, to be on your own,

Rhapsody lyrics - Delays

You could've called, you could've ran,
You could've made a better plan,
You had the wheels, you found the keys,
You overcome the silent spring,

Another year, another town
Another life to circle round,
A bed of roses left to fade,
And like a rose you ruled this place,

Why wait for flowers in the evening?
Why wait for love to believe in?

Rhapsody, drown my laughter,
Sympathy, serenade the spark in me,
Wrap my heart in rhapsody,

You could've called, you could've ran,
You had the time to make demands,
On lovers here, a lover there,
A call to arms, a lighthouse stare,

Why wait for flowers in the evening?
Why wait for love to believe in?

Rhapsody, drown my laughter,
Sympathy, serenade the spark in me,
Wrap my heart in rhapsody,

Rhapsody came so close now
All at sea, forge a note you
Lost to me, lost my rhythm, rhapsody,

Oh rhapsody, break the code and climb the trees,
Watch the distant days recede,
Wrap my heart in rhapsody,
Oh, rhapsody...

May 45 lyrics - Delays

Decades, light up even in your old age
Finds you even in your birdcage,
Breaking curfew like a child,

Her face lives in pictures of a lost age,
All that's precious to a hostage,
Oh, you're ailing but alive,

She waved goodbye,

But, the last you ever loved was the May of 45,
When everyone loved her, and ever the soldier,
Never stepped out of line,

Dream on, dreamer...

Die for, only medal worth the fight for,
Torch you carried through a world war,
Love's remaining out of time,

We cleared the skies,
But the last you heard her name was the May of 45,
When everyone called her, suffer enraptured,
Ringing in Auld Lang sine,

Dream on, dreamer...

Dream on - in time this carnival will fade,
Dreamer - under the shadow of the planes,

You pray old age won't dull her name

Hold Fire lyrics - Delays

If there's any dying to be done, I will
Be the one who get's the dying done, I will
Take a candle to the kingdom come, 'til then
Hold fire, hold fire

From high to low, the motion leans,
Catch me; catch me,
I'm falling fast, and need your wings,
Catch me; catch me,

If there's any crying to be done, I will
Be the one who gets the crying done, I will
Cut my finger 'til the river runs, 'til then
Hold fire, hold fire,

So tell me when the war begins,
Tell me; tell me,
The time has come to own this thing,
Tell me; tell,

Know your history, you need a cross to bare,
Bring your cross to me, live for me if you don't care, [x4]

Unsung lyrics - Delays

Just breathe; we'll make a picture not a scene,
'Cos you don't have to preach to me,
There's not a note you cannot sing,

Unsung, you'll be a ghost before too long,
You'll get your moment in the sun,
Under the moon, under the gun

There's a hole carved in me you can see straight through,
Fill it in, fill it in, 'cos it's shaped like you,
There's a hole carved in me you can see straight through,
Fill it in, fill it in, 'cos it's shaped like you...

You are the star performer,
You walk upon the stage,
You are the star performer,
My glorious crusade,

Just try a little longing in your life,
We'll be like soldiers in disguise,
We're on a mission for your smile,

There's a hole carved in me you can see straight through,
Fill it in, fill it in, 'cos it's shaped like you,
There's a hole carved in me you can see straight through,
Fill it in, fill it in, 'cos it's shaped like you...

You are the star performer,
You walk upon the stage,
You are the star performer,
My glorious crusade,

Unsung, unsung...

You are the star performer,
You walk upon the stage,
You are the star performer,
My glorious crusade,

In Brilliant Sunshine lyrics - Delays

In lights, in lights

Lashes run to the speakers
Torches flick under whispers
Late at night
You're out of sight, of land and light

Yves Klein stay here a while
Backstage, they don't deserve your smile and grace
We'll meet in space, we'll meet in space

Someone's here, someone's here
Someone's here, someone's here

Lashes stunned into thunder
These storms won't keep you underground
Tonight, you burn too bright for their delight

Tailspin down through the lightning
Enthralled to hours frightening
Crave, a psalm, a call to arms
A voice to calm

Someone's here, someone's here
Sun shines here, sun shines here
In lights, in lights, in lights

Shapes and lights, shapes and lights
Shapes and lights, shapes and lights

You always bring the fight

Moment Gone lyrics - Delays

Seen the world, found a point in growing old,
Dig a little deeper, break upon the shore,
Standing in line at the door,

I know you better than you think I do,
Dig a little deeper, break upon the shore,
Standing in line at the door,

We'll hunt the moon forever, we'll slay it together,
And we'll lay this season down,
We'll put the law behind us; this fever will guide us,
And we'll lay this season down,
And we'll lay, yeah, we will lay...

I know you better than you think I do,
Dig a little deeper, break upon the shore,
Standing in line at the door...

We'll hunt the moon forever, we'll slay it together,
And we'll lay this season down,
We'll put the law behind us; this fever will guide us,
And we'll lay this season down,
And we'll lay, yeah, we will lay, and we will lay,
Yeah, we will lay...

Cos there is no reason to keep us from leaving,
If we lay this fever down,
We'll hunt the moon forever, we'll slay it together,
And we'll lay this season down.

Lakes Can Be Lethal lyrics - Delays

I'd been alright before you, before you made me feel,
I'd been alive but older, until you brought me near,

A tear I hear alight in your world,
You were turning away: yeah, you were turning away,
A tear I hear alight in your world,
You were turning away: yeah, you are turning away,
From me now,

Beneath a dreaming Goya, we got the sleeping down,
We made a deal to rehearse; we never let this promise drown,

A tear I hear alight in your world,
You were turning away: yeah, you were turning away,
A tear I hear alight in your world,
You were turning away from me:
Yeah, you are turning away from me now...

But in your arms you know that I can mend,
And on your strings you know that I depend,
Make it sound like we can flee again,
Into the lake, into the lake...

A tear I hear alight in your world,
You were turning away: yeah, you were turning away,
A tear I hear alight in your world,
You are turning away from me now,
Yeah, you are turning away from me now,
Yeah, you are turning away from me now,
Yeah, you are turning away from me now...

Star Tiger, Star Ariel lyrics - Delays

Draped in light, right your wrongs,

We are a misdemeanour; we were a golden age,
Our reign was set to linger, now only seconds remain,

Draped in light, right your wrongs,

Remember how we shivered on bridges high as planes,
Forgive my trigger finger; it's brought us nothing but pain,
Alay Decembers embers scattered on our stomping ground,
Somewhere underneath our lost estate is burning down

But I dont want to lose your heartbeat, no, I dont want to lose your patience,
This is real time, this is always; this is heavenly, here right now,

Alone and draped in light, right your wrongs,
Draped in light, right your wrongs,

All these suns set for miles can't compare, to this time here with you,
here with you, here with you, here with you...

"Everything's The Rush" (2008)

Girl's On Fire lyrics - Delays

Never thought I'd see her smile
Yeah the girl is on fire
Never thought I'd see her smile
Yeah the girl is on fire

Well alright, alright, alright
I'm coming round today
Well alright, alright, alright
I'm coming round today

Never thought I'd see her smile
Yeah the girl is on fire
Never thought I'd see her smile
Yeah the girl is on fire

Well alright, alright, alright
There's so much more to say
Well alright, alright, alright
There's so much more to say

Never thought I'd see her smile
Yeah the girl is on fire
Never thought the time was right
Yeah the girl is on fire

Coz we stayed out too long
Playing in the sun fire in your eyes
Fire in your eyes, yeah we stayed out
Too long playing in the sun
Fire in your eyes, fire, fire, fire, fire

Never thought I'd see her smile
Yeah the girl is on fire

It's in your eyes, it's in your eyes

Hooray lyrics - Delays

I put a tack on everything,
It lets me know just where I've been,
Call out these chains and get me home,
I'm coming back but will you show.

Hooray Hooray its not over,
we have got all day to recover,
and I'm on a roll so don't you be late,
Too late too late run for cover,
there is not enough left to offer,
there's more to this than acting my age.

I put a price on what you say,
it lets me know that I'm OK,
but I'm a garbage man tonight,
and I just don't believe my eyes,

Hooray Hooray its not over,
we have got all day to recover,
and I'm on a roll so don't you be late,
Too late too late run for cover,
and there is not enough left to offer,
and theres more to this than acting my age.

Oh you'll never believe what I have seen whilst I was lost,
I found this place next to the ocean,
a perfect fit for us,
you're in so deep you cannot move,
so let me in,

Hooray Hooray its not over,
we have got all day to recover,
and I'm on a roll so don't you be late.

Hooray Hooray its not over,
we have got all day to recover,
and I'm on a roll so don't you be late,
Too late too late run for cover,
there is not enough left to offer,
and theres more to this than acting my age.

Too late, too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late.

Love Made Visible lyrics - Delays

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name in graffiti on the wall

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name but all my words are gone.

Love made visible
The truth is unstoppable
Touch your hand in the blue of the swimming pool.

Love made visible
The truth is unstoppable
Touch your hand but all my words are gone.

I found you in summer
When you were undercover
Not hiding,
Just shadowed
And burning brightly now.

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name in graffiti on the wall.

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name in graffiti on the wall.

Love made visible
The waves are unbreakable
Holds you up, lets me float to the shore.

Love made visible
The feat is impossible
Make a move but all my words are gone.

I found you in summer
When you were undercover
Not hiding,
Just shadowed
And burning brightly now

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name in graffiti on the wall

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name

But all my words are... [x7]

Love made visible
Your skin feels incredible
Wrote your name in graffiti on the wall

One More Lie In lyrics - Delays

If you fall asleep I'll love you
Pulling leaves from trees above you
I know all the things that haunt you
And you need to know I want you

Girl there is no easy way
To say the things you need to say but
You have to try today
Because these things won't go away

All I want is one more lie in
These four walls and you not crying
All I want is one more lie in

Cut the phone lines, hold my hand
Cause things don't always go to plan
I'm brave enough for both of us
And ten foot tall when things get tough and

Fuck the neighbours, turn this up
We fought the war and won the cup
And hand in hand we'll run through cities
Smashing statues, climbing trees and ..

All I want is one more lie in
These four walls and you not crying
All I want is one more lie in

I hope we never grow old
Then we can still seek our fortune
I hope we never grow old
Unless you tell me this goes,
We'll jump the harbor,
Riding out past midnight
Candles leading only your way

All I want is one more lie in
These four walls and you not crying
All I want is one more lie in

All I want is one more lie in
These four walls and you not crying
All I want is one more lie in

Keep It Simple lyrics - Delays

oooooh move your head from side to side,
don't look down, take your time.
you're all dressed up, nowhere to go,
don't look down, don't say no.
ooh and all i see is you on your knees tonight.

baby, let's keep it simple.
now baby, what's on your mind?

i lose my faith from time to time,
i've traced these tears on the rise.
oooh the tide rolls in and picks you up
and i'm left with out ya.
but oh, oh and all i see is you on your knees tonight.

now baby, let's keep it simple.
baby, what's on your mind?

words come later than they should,
there's no spell to break this mood.
it ruins, nothing doing.
and for the longest time i'm right.
the dying embers of lonely night.

but i'm still hoping there's time,
i'm still hoping there's time,
i'm still hoping there's time,
i'm always hoping there's time.

baby, let's keep it simple.
now baby, don't waste my time.
now baby, winter has broken.
now baby, spring's open wide.

but i'm still hoping there's time,
yeah, i'm still hoping there's time,
and i'm still hoping there's time,
yeah, i,m still hoping there's time,

baby, i'm still hoping there's time,
let's keep it simple.
i'm still hoping there's time,
baby, i'm still hoping there's time.

let's keep it simple.
i'm still hoping there's time,
but i'm still hoping there's time.

Pieces lyrics - Delays

Here I am again with a head to mend and little else beside
There's nothing like a friend to throw you out of time
Running into walls when the siren calls, I don't know what to try
There's nothing on TV, and staying in's a crime

So I can't drive
But I'm learning to arrive
Without damaging the exit sign
I'll pick up my pieces on the way out

I don't wanna go with the voice unknown and drag you from the deep
I'd rather be alone, than next to you asleep
Running into walls when the siren calls, I don't know what to try
There's nothing on TV and staying in's a crime

So I can't drive
Well I'm learning to arrive
Without damaging the exit sign
I'll pick up my pieces on my way out

We are
We know
We are
We don't become
We go
Wherever you came from wherever you go

Touch Down lyrics - Delays

Wake up rock star, you've gone too far
Now there's no way back alone

If you go, if you go
I'll be calling on your radio
Is anyone listening?
If you go, if you go
I'll be calling on your radio
Is anyone listening?

Wake up driver, speeds not armour
Now there's no way back alone

If you go, if you go
I'll be calling on your radio
Is anyone listening?
If you go, if you go
I'll be calling on your radio
Is anyone listening?

If you go, if you go
I will tear this place apart
If you go, if you go
I will earn this bleeding heart
If you go, if you go
I'll be calling on your radio
Is anyone listening?

So don't you let me down
Don't you turn your head
I have earned the right to be in this bed
I'm in Shangri-la, I'm in reverie
But all the time I'd rather be

If you go, if you go
I will tear this place apart
If you go, if you go
I will earn this bleeding heart
If you go, if you go
I'll be calling on your radio
Is anyone listening

Friends Are False lyrics - Delays

I only came because you asked me to
Your friends are false but I'm stuck on you
Outside your moving clouds the sun shines through
You're turning darker days into blue

I'm on the outside, I'm looking in
And I'm seeing colours where the shadows have been
And I'm on the outside, I'm looking in
And I'm seeing colours where the shadows have been

Did you see me in the shadows when you danced alone?
I will be a vigilante for your touch now on
I'm a painter and I'll paint you such a vivid scene
I know what you want 'cause I know what you need, okay

I'll be a spotlight hanging over you
I'll watch your back if you want me to
But there's a killer that I'm cutting through
Your friends are false and you need me too

I'm on the outside, I'm looking in
And I'm seeing colours where the shadows have been
And I'm on the outside, I'm looking in
And I'm seeing colours where the shadows have been

Did you see me in the shadows when you danced alone?
I will be a vigilante for your touch now on
I'm a painter and I'll paint you such a vivid scene
I know what you want 'cause I know what you need, okay
I could hardly be your lover after what you said
I will be a vigilante for your touch instead
I'm a painter and I'll paint you such a vivid scene
I know what you want 'cause I know what you need, okay

Did you see me in the shadows when you danced alone?
I will be a vigilante for your touch now on
Did you see me in the shadows when you danced alone?
I will be a vigilante for your touch now on

Now on, now on, now on, now on, now on
Now on, now on, now on, now on, now on
Now on, now on, now on, now on, now on
Now on, now on, now on, now on, now on

No Contest lyrics - Delays

Right now I'm ready for the future
You pack light,
I'm waiting for your return flight
But if you've gotta go away,
Then you gotta go away

Hold fast, these black clouds won't last
And at night, your head's like a kaleidoscope
But if you've gotta go away,
Then you gotta go away
And if you gotta go then you gotta go
But there's one more thing that you should know

There's no contest for your reason,
There's no contest now

Take care, I'll miss you
When you're not there
To friends passed,
These flags fly half mast
But if you've gotta go away,
Then you gotta go away
And if you gotta go then you gotta go
But there's one more thing that you should know

There's no contest for your reason,
There's no contest now

Summers at your back
Always winter where you're at
Can we grow, can we grow?
Summers at your back
Always winter where you're at
Can we grow, can we grow?
Love is all around a golden robe
A golden crown,
Can we grow, can we grow?

Silence lyrics - Delays

If all these falling stars,
Settle where you are
They'd blind me to your steps
And I've not found you yet

Coz keeping up with you
Was more than I could do
But now I'm off the pace,
You know I've got a lot to say

And if I could've said much more
With silence, silence says it all
And if I could've said much more
With silence, silence says it all

If all these speeding cars,
Let you pass unharmed
Then I should walk away
You know I've got a lot to say

And if I could've said much more
With silence, silence says it all
And if I could've said much more
With silence, silence says it all, it all

But if I could've made you tick
Like clockwork
Clockwork bring you home
And if I could've said much more
With silence, silence says it all...
Silence says it all...

Jet Lag lyrics - Delays

Let's go swimming in the morning
Let's go swimming in the morning
Let's go swimming in the morning
let's go swimming

There's all these hours in the day
And we are, we are,
Around to let them get away
We are, we are
I hit my back against the wall
I stumbled down I took a fall
I bet you are, I bet you are
I starved a cold I fed the flu
I'm on my feet I feel brand new
I bet you are, I bet you are
Let's go swimming
In the morning
Goodbye my friend, this is the end
Goodbye my friend, this is the end
We are all dream, I'm sorry I let you down
We are all dream, I'm sorry I let you down
Let's go swimming in the morning
Goodbye my friend,
This is the end
