david gray - 4 am
4 o'clock in the morning
Moon on the sea
The night is rattling
With burglar alarms, oh yeah
The night is blue
The night is blue
Flowers by your window side
Autumn is graceful
I'm laden with memory
And the wind has died
7 o'clock in the evening
Watching the TV show
Tears from your dark eyes
Your head against the sunset
And the harbour below
It's the cruellest thing
The cruellest thing
That I've ever known
It's time and circumstance
Taking their toll
There's no stones being thrown
Your bed was a warm bed
A warm bed in a cold room
Always the same pictures on the wall
And some love in the morning
With your dog at your pillow
And a half empty bottle of baby oil
7 o'clock in the evening
Moon on the sea
Oh, the night is rattling
With burglar alarms
Oh, they're ringing for me
It's the cruellest thing
The cruellest thing
That I've ever known
It's just time and circumstance
Taking their toll
There's no stones being thrown
david gray - a century ends
Cast your eyes into the distance
Try to focus on it all
Find a spirit of resistance
Instead of pride before the fall
Forge some opposition
From disparate strands
It ain't the prettiest position
As a century ends
Unstable situation
Faces made of wax
Streams of melting glass
Sheets of butchered facts
The roar of the machine
Hooded hearts and jewelled hands
And anger spilling out like gasoline
As a century ends
Everything I seen, everything that I heard
It ain't even the top of the iceberg
Fire down memory lane
So pass me my rose tinted glasses again
Through a fog of contradiction
Out to the lake of tears
See society admiring it's own reflection
Chase a light that shines and disappears
Careful what you say, 'cause reality offends
Just sit back and let your soul decay
As a century ends
And it's easy to get weary
As you fight to get it done
Against a popular theory
That it's over before it's even begun
Strain the limit of compassion
Tend a wound that never mends
And honesty still out of fashion
As a century ends
david gray - a clean pair of eyes
Hear me god, I'm on a level
Mapping silence, spitting skin
Crying, laughing like the devil
Before the might of all that is seen
I raise my head and wake to dream
With a clean pair of eyes
Murdered gold and colors splashing
Down like blood, like flowing hair
Faces melting, airplanes crashing
Before the might of all that is true
I raise my head to dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Don't need no right or wrong
Don't need no disguise
No sugar to sweet my tongue
A clean pair of eyes
Today I need no commentary
Today I have no need to speak
No explanation necessary
Before the might of all that is real
I turn my head like coldest steel
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Don't need no right or wrong
Don't need no disguise
No sugar to fix my tongue
A clean pair of eyes
Liquid air, flags that ripple
Tamborine, smoking suns
Love that blinds
Fear that cripples
Before the might of all that is true
I turn my head to dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
Dreaming in the streets that glisten
Dawn that trembles, flesh and grain
Dream it
Sing it out again
Before the might of all that is seen
I raise my head and wake to dream
Before the might of all to come
I turn my head like purest sun
Before the might of all that is true
I raise my head and dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
david gray - ain t no love
Maybe that it would do me good
If I believed there were a god
Cut in the starry firmament
But as it is that?s just a lie
And I'm here eating up the boredom
On an island of cement
Give me your ecstasy I'll feel it
Open window and I'll steal it
Baby like it?s heaven sent
This ain?t no love that?s guiding me
Some days i'm bursting at the seams
with all my half remembered dreams
and then it shoots me down again
i feel the dampness as it creeps
I hear you coughing in your sleep
beneath a broken window pane
tomorrow girl i'll buy you chips
a lollipop to stain your lips
and it?ll all be right as rain
This ain?t no love that?s guiding me
This ain?t no love that?s guiding me
No it ain?t no love guiding me
No it ain?t no love guiding me
No it ain?t no love guiding me
This ain?t no love that?s guiding me
This ain?t no love that?s guiding me
on winter trees the fruit of rain
is hanging trembling in the branches
like a thousand diamond buds
and waiting there in every pause
that old familiar fear that claws you
tells you nothing ain?t no good
then pulling back you see it all
down here so laughable and small
hardly a quiver in the dirt
This ain?t no love that?s guiding me
david gray - alibi
Stone blind alibi
I will eat the lie
Find the word
Could break any spell that binds you
Prayers like ammonites
Curl beneath the lights
How i long to
Bite every hand that feeds you more
Where d?it all go wrong
My friday night enfant
Where d?it all go wrong
My friday night enfant
All night busz on a line
It?s only blood on the rime
Wrecks my head every time
It leads me on
Where d?it all go wrong
My friday night enfant
Where d?it all go wrong
My friday night enfant
Tonight tonight
Tonight i'm running wild i'm running
Tonight i'm running wild i'm running
Tonight i'm running wild i'm running
Tonight i'm running wild i'm running
Tonight i'm running wild
david gray - all the love
Hear the warning
Read the sign
written here
Between the lines
Whispering poison valentines
To the love in me
Pull the blade out
From the fire
Crucify my own desire
Chase it off
Down to the wire
For the love in me
Milk of kindness
Bread of dreams
Belly's bursting at the seams
Cigarettes and magazines
For the love in me
Through it all
This heart of mine
Leaving me so far behind
All this world
Just made of breath
Every line get's done to death
Nothing here to face it with
Except the love in me
Through it all
This heart of mine
Leaving me so far behind
Meet me darling
On the steps
Paint the line upon your lips
Open with
Your fingertips
All the love in me
All the love in me
All the love in me
david gray - as i m leaving
As I'm leaving
A change comes on my eyes
These streets persuading me
With mumbles strange goodbyes
And through the water
Through the ring
To the sould of everything
Throw my heart out
On the stones
And I'm almost gone
And there's no meaning
In clothes and coffee cups
Cheap hotel furniture
Where silence never stops
And through the water
Through the ring
To the soul of everything
Throw my heart on
On the stones
And I'm almost gone
And now I'm dreaming
I'm staring at the walls
At cars all frozen now
In late night waterfalls
And through the water
Through the ring
To the soul of everything
Wash my heart out
On the stones
And I'm almost gone
david gray - ashes in the wind
Ashes in the Wind
i hold you close in my arms
as we take our last stroll
down the beach
TOGETHER
with seagulls screeching overhead
and waves crashing
and thrashing towards the shore
my eyes well-up
and tears stream down my face
an overwhelming sense of sadness
takes hold of me
and as we climb the mountainous sands
i think about the sound of your laughter
i remember our first piggyback ride
and the first time that we danced
TOGETHER
i wonder why the more i learn
the more i realize
how much i don't know
as we reach the top of the cliff
i stand still
mesmerized by the beauty
of the deep blue sea
and calmed by the peaceful
breaking waves
as i open your urn
my hands shake
with sadness and pain
i remove your ashes from
your temporary home
and toss them into the wind
ashes in the wind
ashes in the wind
then i bury your urn
in one of our favorite nooks
deep in the sand on the cliff
so that traces of you will forever be
part of La Jolla Beach
then i trudge back to the shore below
ALL ALONE
then i realize that your ashes
are swirling all around me
blowing in the wind
then i feel joy in knowing
that you are free
from your earthly shell
and that you will find me
when my time comes
until then
i know that our love will last
as we move from this life to the next
and so i wait
to see your face once again
and when i do
i will remember that
TOGETHER
our love is stronger
than a waking giant
and it will endure
until the end of time
ashes in the wind
ashes in the wind
david gray - babylon
Friday night I'm going nowhere
All the lights are changing green to red
Turning over TV stations
Situations running through my head
Well looking back through time
You know it's clear that I've been blind
I've been a fool
To open up my heart
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule
Saturday I'm running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream
Only wish that you were here
You know I'm seeing it so clear
I've been afraid
To show you how I really feel
Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Babylon, Babylon
Sunday all the lights of London
Shining , Sky is fading red to blue
I'm kicking through the Autumn leaves
And wondering where it is you might be going to
Turning back for home
You know I'm feeling so alone
I can't believe
Climbing on the stair
I turn around to see you smiling there
In front of me
If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
david gray - be mine
From the very first moment I saw you
That's when I knew
All the dreams I held in my heart
Had suddenly come true
Knock me over stone cold sober
Not a thing I could say or do
'Cos baby when I'm walking with you now
My eyes are so wide
Like you reached right into my head
And turned on the light inside
Turning on the light
Inside my mind hey
Come on baby it's all right
Sunday Monday day or night
Written blue on white it's plain to see
That rainy shiny night or day
What's the difference anyway
Baby till your heart belongs to me
If I had some influence girl
With the powers that be
I'd have them fire that arrow at you
Like they fired it right at me
And maybe when your heart and soul are burning
You might see
That everytime I'm talking with you
It's always over too soon
That everyday feels so incomplete
Till you walk into the room
Say the word now girl
I'll jump that moon hey
Come on baby it's ok
Rainy shiny night or day
There's nothing in the way now
Don't you see
Winter summer day or night
Centigrade or fahrenheit
Baby till your heart belongs to me
Thursday Friday short or long
When you got a love so strong
How can it be wrong now mercy me
Jumpin' Jesus holy cow !
What's the difference anyhow
Baby till your heart belongs to me
david gray - best i ever had
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring
Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now
[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had
So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely
Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better
[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't need me back
You're just the best I ever had
And it may take some time to
Patch me up inside
But I can't take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You're always right
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring
What was it you wanted
Could it be I'm haunted
[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
I don't want you back
You're just the best I ever had
The best I ever had
The best I ever
david gray - birds without wings
Wishing that something would happen
A change in this place
'Cause I'm tearing off the fancy wrapping
Find an empty package
Take for a while
Your trumpet from your lip
Loosen your hold, loosen your grip
On your old ways
That have fallen out of step
In a changing time
Hoist a new flag
Hoist a new flag
Angry sun burn down
Judging us all
Guilty of neglect and disrespect
And thinking small
And death by boredom
And death by greed
If we can't stop taking
More than we need
But across the fractured landscape
I find the same things
Tired ideas
Birds without wings
Birds without wings
Birds without wings
And these are just thoughts
On lack-lustre times
I've no interest
In excuses you can find
Like you've had a hard day
Now you're too tired to care
Now you're too tired to care
You've had a hard day
Well across the fractured landscape
I see the same things
Tired ideas, broken values
Many with the notion
That to share is to lose
A hollow people bound by a lack
Of imagination and too much looking back
Without the courage
To give a new thing a chance
Grounded by this ignorance
(and the cat comes)
We're just
Birds without wings
Birds without wings
Birds without wings
david gray - breathe
Wake, wake and the moments gone
Wake, wake and the moments gone
Wake, wake and the moments gone
Wake, wake and the moments gone
Then the door bell rings
Somebody asks you could
You spare a little time
To feel the weight that's mine
To lower down your guard
Get out your heart get snagged
Caught in the wheels in dust tracks
Angle on the edge
Breatheâ?¦.
You feel your in too deep
So offer up some chrome
And drop it in the tin
Slither back within
Your crenulated wealth
Your educated self
Your family in rude health
And all the joy it brings
Aren't we forgetting something?
Feet out on the ledge
Feet out on the ledge
Breathe, Breathe, Breathe, Breatheâ?¦
And in the heat of noon
Finds you like some dog
You're propped up in a field
Medically sealed
Scratching at the wind shield
And howling at the glass
At anyone might walk past
Were you not aware?
Were you not aware?
Were you not aware?
Breatheâ?¦
The sea of broken lives
Mechanics, doctors, house wives
Feet out on the ledge
Feet out on the ledge
Feet out on the ledge
Breathe
Breatheâ?¦
david gray - brick walls
I just don't care
Don't care at all
I banged my head too long
On these brick walls
Every seed I sow
Shudders and falls
Perishes between
These brick walls
And I feel like the last hair
On a head gone bald
Not much point being there
No point at all
How many more years
Years 'till they fall
All the blind eyes and deaf ears
Hey, and these brick walls
These brick walls
These brick walls
These brick walls
And I'm long past worrying
And I'm long past being appalled
I know history is hurrying, oh
And time can't be stalled
So don't try to run, no
Before you can crawl
Just wait
And the time will come
Yeah, for these brick walls
These brick walls
These brick walls
These brick walls
david gray - brushstroke
with one brush stroke
i attempt to paint
a picture of you
your beautiful face
the soft lines
around your eyes
your hair blowing
in the gentle wind
sparkling eyes
that stop me
in my tracks
i trace your face
with my hands
so that i may
get a more accurate
sense of how
to draw you
but after
my loving hands
touch your face
i cannot paint
a single stroke
i am so entranced
so mesmerized
by your beautiful face
by your spell
YOU are poetry in motion
poetry in motion
i fear that i am
destined to fail
i'm just not
up to the task
how can i paint perfection
it would be
an exercise in futility
to try to paint
my lover's face
i know
it would be a mistake
to even try
because i simply can't
duplicate the beauty
of your face
just touching it
leaves me
weak in the knees
your body
is a work or art
i pay homage to
michaelangelo
as i trace the
outline of your hands
gliding my lips
across your fingertips
genius lover
genius lover
that's what you used to call me
because i know what you need
i know just how to please you
do you think it's just
a stroke of luck or perhaps
i've really thought about
what would give you
the utmost pleasure
no genius lover
just thoughtfulness
thoughts filled with you
and how thankful i am that
i was able to share some space
with the wonder of you
you make love to me
like i'm a work or art
i see the love light
in your eyes
and i feel so grateful
to have crossed paths
with the likes of you
oh, the poetry of you
the poetry of you
the poetry of you
