London In His Eyes
05:13
|
|||
He had London in his eyes
And Paris in his smile,
Scraping at the barrel
Gnawing at the wall.
Peering through the window,
Cause he could not find the words,
Could not speak the language,
To get into their worlds.
A word of advice,
Empty your pockets in my gig tonight and it’ll change your life,
A word of advice,
Everything I say, I play, I do, is the best you’ll get, don’t forget.
You ain’t got the bat to hit this ball,
You got London in your eyes,
But you got no sense at all,
You ain’t got the grasp,
To halt your fall,
You got London in your eyes, but you’ve forgotten your home.
He dons his Jazz Dungarees,
Shaves his head bald,
His Ego flies high,
When he plays his tenor horn.
See when he plays in his bubble,
And floats around with his friends,
He feels indestructible,
And the party never ends.
A word of advice,
Empty your pockets in my gig tonight and it’ll change your life,
A word of advice,
Everything I say, I play, I do, is the best you’ll get, don’t forget.
You ain’t got the bat to hit this ball,
You got London in your eyes,
But you got no sense at all,
You ain’t got the grasp,
To halt your fall,
You got London in your eyes, but you’ve forgotten your home.

Life I'm Working On
04:21

Tell my what it means,
Driven by the forces that may be,
I see you lying there,
Make me take more care,
I watch them come and go now
Looking with these empty eyes
Admiring the sky now
And the way I feel.
I’ve now found, a new way of life,
Keeping it simple, got no time for new highs,
The lows they come and before you know they gone,
But I’m too busy with the new life I’m working on.
Where did I go wrong,
The light is bright and I can’t see,
Stepping outside of my head,
I’m not where I belong,
I’m gonna take it slow now,
Time has stopped for a little while,
Right here is my moment,
I’ll take my final bow.
I’ve now found….

Work To Be Done
06:22
|

You kicked the habit,
You felt the rush,
You found yourself,
And you lost yourself in someone.
But you know there’s still some work to be done.
You held on tightly,
To what you know,
Then you discovered,
Sometimes you have to let it go,
‘Cause you know there’s still some work to be done.
Keeping on chipping away,
Don’t go slipping away.
Cause there’s some work to be done yeah my friend,
And I ain’t found myself yet,
Cause there’s some work to be done yeah my friend,
No I ain’t found myself, I ain’t found myself yet.
You took for granted,
Looked past the view,
And you saw something,
Won’t you please give me a clue.
You cried out,
They mis-heard,
There are just some things,
That can’t be heard.
But you know there’s still some work to be done.

Roots

Looking in to the distance,
I can feel the breeze,
I hear them calling,
As it brushes against my cheek.
I haven’t got answer,
I haven’t got the time,
To figure out your future,
When I can’t see mine.
I’m getting to the root of the problem again,
Working long ours in my mind,
Overtime,
Getting to the root of the problem again,
That I just can’t seem to find,
‘Cause you have turned me blind,
Too much time with your kind
Can’t get you off my mind
And I’m looking for a sign.
Chorus
If you wanted to take my hand,
Would you spare me your excuse,
I just don’t understand,
How you just cut me loose.
You made your sacrifice,
How could I decline,
See nothing with suffice,
Now we’re living on the line.
I’m getting….
