everything but the girl - missing
I step off the train,
I'm walking down your street again,
and past your door,
but you don't live there anymore.
It's years since you've been there.
Now you've disappeared somewhere
like outer space,
you've found some better place,
and I miss you
- like the deserts miss the rain.
Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead
of everyone.
We'd walk behind while you would run.
I look up at your house,
and I can almost hear you shout
down to me
where I always used to be,
and I miss you -
like the deserts miss the rain.
Back on the train,
I ask why did I come again.
Can I confess
I've been hanging around your old address?
And the years have proved
to offer nothing since you moved.
You're long gone
but I can't move on,
and I miss you -
like the deserts miss the rain
I step off the train,
I'm walking down your street again,
and past your door,
I guess you don't live there anymore.
It's years since you've been there.
Now you've disappeared somewhere
like outer space,
you've found some better place,
and I miss you -
like the deserts miss the rain
and I miss you -
like the deserts miss the rain (deserts miss the rain)
everything but the girl - i don t understand anything
What is it that I think I need?
Is there love in me that wants to be freed?
Or is it selfishness and ego
we carry with us everywhere that we go?
This feeling that life's incomplete
- do you feel that too?
Do you want what I want?
And if I should start to cry,
and I can't begin to tell you why,
and I stumble when I begin,
it's cause I don't understand anything.
People say that we're so close,
how can there be something that I don't know.
Oh but even though I share your bed,
baby, I don't get inside your head.
This feeling of some mystery
- do you feel that too?
Do you know what I mean?
And if I should start to cry,
and I can't begin to tell you why,
and I stumble when I begin,
it's cause I don't understand anything.
Watch me stumble, watch me trip
My fingers loose their grip.
Now I'm down on my knees,
Is that what you wanted to see?
What is it that I think I need?
What is it that I think I need?
And if I should start to cry,
and I can't begin to tell you why,
and I stumble when I begin,
it's cause I don't understand anything.
You reach for me from miles away,
you reach for me from miles away.
everything but the girl - get me
I never thought I'd grow up so fast, so far
To know yourself is to let yourself be loved
And I want to be addicted
I want to be secure
I want to wake up after the night before
But do you ever get me?
Do you ever get me?
I'll press your hand
Against my face weaken my resistance
I'll pull the sheets over our heads
Let the broken sky break above our heads
And I want to be addicted
I want to be secure
I want to wake up after the night before
But do you get me?
Do you ever get me?
Shower me with affection and I'll return in kind
I have no hidden motive
I am blind
I'm a stone inside a box
I'm a spring inside a clock
You can wear me on your wrist
And I'll tell you things ten thousand times
But do you ever get me?
Do you ever get me?
everything but the girl - when all s well
We are not true
We are not pure
We are not right
O but still I'll steal to you at night
Too selfish by half
Too ugly by far
But when your songs have been sung, come to me
Rumors are rife
And winter blows cold
Reminds me of such wretched times
And yet all the same
I will never deign
To think ill of you
When all's well
My love is like cathedral bells
Amongst all the dross
The lies and the grief
There are so many things you just wouldn't believe
But amongst all the dross
The lies and the grief
When all's well
My love is like cathedral bells
everything but the girl - heaven help me
What I get from you I sometimes steal
When I let belief invade what I should feel
Still I do believe that men are fools
And you don't always escape that rule
But this time there will be no fight
For this time you are in the right
And even I can see
So heaven help me
I only want a room to call my own
And a bright shiny hearth to call my home
But when you give me love I don't deserve
I wonder how I have the nerve
To number you amongst the ones
That I call every name under the sun
Unjust I must be
So heaven help me
And all the things I yearn to possess
When they fall into my hands I could not want them less
And are you supposed to smile and say it didn't matter anyway
And if you are a fool you'd be
To shrug off all this cruelty
If goodness is wrong in heaven you will never belong
And I'll never fall on my knees and say heaven help me please
Heaven help me please
Heaven help me
everything but the girl - driving
Oh loverboy To you I belong
But maybe one day you'll wake
and you'll find me gone
But loverboy
If you call me home
I'll come driving
I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn
Oh loverboy I know you too well
and all of my lonely secrets
To you I tell
The highest of highs
The lowest of lows
I'll come driving
I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn
Stretching away as far as my eyes can see
Deserts and darkness, my hand on the wheel
loverboy, please call me home
A girl can get lonely out here on the road
You see Some days I find the old ways
Frighten me too easily
I leave my key and say "I'm too young"
But loverboy
If you call me home
I'll come driving fast as wheels can turn
everything but the girl - the language of life
I know you'd rather talk instead about the
Things inside your head, but everything, everything,
That I overheard, tells me you just don't have the
Words. Cause you never learned to speak the language
Of life, and here you are a grown man who can't talk
To his wife. And the children you don't understand.
You think you're come on pretty far, still
Got the job, the house and the car. But there's one
Thing, one thing that you never get -a grip on life?
Sweet alphabet. Cause you never learned to speak the
Language of life, and here you are a grown man who
Can't talk to his wife.
And when things get out of hand, and the kids you
Don't understand -love is foreing land. Over words
You have no command, you have no command
But it's not that you don't care- Admit it baby,
And you're half way there. Cause you know, you know
That you feel much more than you ever have the words for.
Cause you never learned to speak the language of life,
And here you are a grown man who can't talk to his wife,
And the children you just don't understand.
everything but the girl - disenchanted
Look at you now, you've disenchanted,
can't believe how things can change.
Take a little out of life and things get strange.
And now you find the wishes you were granted,
things you thought were in your hands,
have slipped away.
How much can you withstand?
The wasted time, the money spent,
a sign that reads 'For Sale or Rent'.
And everything is at a standstill,
and where's someone who'll be on hand till
you're no longer disenchanted,
thinking everything is wrong?
You know you're not the only one to wait so long.
I wonder, can you try again?
Are you that strong?
everything but the girl - this love
Do you want to get on this cowering country now?
Do you want to get on
Or would you be happy just to get by?
The small thoughts of a small town girl
Grew up and wanted to change the world
Will heaven echo back my plea
Or cast it as a curse on me
Do you want to get on in this beautiful country girl?
Listen hard to what the big folks say
And you?ll believe anything
If you believe what they say of this world
From the orchard to the foundry
From farms to city night
Everyone cracks if the price is right
Ideals soon begin to fail
God must know by now
This love is not for sale
everything but the girl - beautiful
You walked into my life
The light was shinning brite
You were the one i was looking for
I looked deep into your eyes
Just to see the moon light
I thought i'd never love anymore
Take my hand and come with me
Let our love set us free
Forever and ever and ever...eternity
Cause you're beautiful
Cause you're beautiful
Cause you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Cause you're beautiful
Cause you're beautiful
Cause you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Take my hand and come with me
Let our love set us free
Forever and ever and ever...eternity
Cause you're beautiful
Cause you're beautiful
Cause you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
everything but the girl - me and bobby d
Me and Bobby D don't get along that easily.
You told the world, "Be free, love life".
Tell me, is it true you beat your wife?
You see, me and Bobby D don't get along that easily.
You told the world, "Skip rules fave fun".
Knocked her from here to kingdom come?
How many girls have you had today?
And how many bottles have you downed today?
And while you're on the skids, who's minding the kids?
Go to sleep Bobby D, here's a kiss,
Don't worry your pretty head about this.
Me and Saint Jack K never had too much to say.
It's easy driving with your feet,
With some good ol' girl in the passenger seat
Watching the road all day,
"Oh honey, what funny things you do say."
But while you're out of your head
Who's making the bed?
Go to sleep Bobby D, here's a kiss,
Don't worry your pretty head about this.
Go to sleep Saint Jack K,
Don't worry your tiny head today
Me and old Bobby D don't get along that famously
A saviour and a seer? Maybe,
But he never meant that much to me.
Sure, I'd love a wild life,
But every wild man needs a mother or wife.
The seven seas you roam
And who's waiting at home?
everything but the girl - blame
Know I wasn't good -
Maybe I was even bad -
But I was way too young
To know just what I had.
And if I let you down,
Now I let you go,
But I was so young
And now it's all gone.
I'm the one to blame.
You must never think
I wish that you had stayed.
Look at where we are,
I'm glad you got away.
But who's your daddy now
And where's your home?
You're living somewhere new.
D'you think he'd take me too?
I'm the one to blame.
Now you forgot the words,
Please don't forget your name.
And who gave it to you?
Well that was me again.
Who let you down and loved you?
That was me again.
And who's the one to blame?
That was me again.
I'm the one to blame.
everything but the girl - my head is my only house unless it rains
I?ll let a train be my feet if it?s too far to walk to you
And if a train don?t go there
I?ll get a jet or a bus
'Cuz I?m gonna find you
You?re gonna see my shadow soon around you
And my head is my only house unless it rains
I?ve walked the meadow plains
Water deserts on my eyes until I find you
I won?t sleep until I find you
I won?t eat until I find you
And my heart won?t beat
Until I wrap my arms around you
And my arms are just two things in the way till I can wrap them around you
You can make a sad song happy
And a bad world good
I can feel you out there movin?
You?re mine and I know I?ll find you
And my head is my only house until I found you
I hate to hear other people hear me sing this song
If it reaches you before I do
Follow this song to I love you
That?s where I?ll find you
And my head is my only house unless it rains
And my head is my only house unless it rains
And my head is my only house unless it rains
And my head is my only house
My head is my only house
My head is my only house
My head is my only house
Unless it rains
Unless it rains
Unless it rains
Unless it rains
everything but the girl - fascination
Chords
I won't try to stop you
When you speak of the past
Doubt is over now
And I can join in when you laugh
Facination makes us ask for more
Than we'd like to know
I needn't explain
I think you know
Reaassure me when my hearts
Not bold enough to bear her name
If you were in my shoes
And scared I would do the same
And though I may ask
There's no need for past details
Although I may laugh alone
My courage fails
Did you know
See how I've changed now
My heads so clear
Still there are some things
That I don't want to hear
There must be so much I know
That you cannot forget
And I mustn't wish your life began
The day we met
They say as we go remind you
Of when you were here before
So you talk and tell me
You don't think about it anymore
There is something I know
Hasn't quite been left behind
So I'll ask you once again
To prove that I don't mind
To prove that I don't mind
everything but the girl - bittersweet
don't talk to me in that familiar way
when the keys are in my hand
don't say that everything is here to stay
and I must try to understand
when I'm trying not to look into your eyes
trying not to listen to your lies
trying just to keep hold of myself
oh but it's hard
when you leave me on the shelf
you say that I set a path
for you to follow
and I've already given in
but I only meant for you
to taste not swallow
where I end is where you must begin
so try not to look into their eyes
try not to listen to their lies
try just to keep hold of yourself
oh I know it's hard
when they leave you on their shelf
she's such a sweet girl
free of the taints of this world
think that's a compliment
don't be so full of sentiment
why you worship sweetness
what virtue's there in weakness
being pushed about is nothing much
to shout about I know
