icehouse - all the way
As the sun is sinking
Deep in the west, the day makes an end
That's when love is stealing
Around every corner, around every bend
Falling for temptation
Well, I've already made that very mistake
She puts an offer to me
Too good to refuse, it's easy to take
So what can I do about it, girl?
Guess that's the way it's meant to be
And if you should want to go
I wouldn't make you stay
You know I don't care about tomorrow
When tonight you're on my side
Hoping this time around
We make it all the way
All the way
The taste is sweet sen
It's all that I want
It's all that we need
Now we're getting that hesitation
When you tell me it's true
It's hard to believe
Too much cool deception
Oh, it goes through my head, it's always the same
Making eyes is cheating
And the very first kiss is where it begins
So what can I do about it, girl?
Guess that's the way it's meant to be
And if you should want to go
How could I make you stay
You know I don't care about tomorrow
When tonight you're on my side
Praying this time around
We make it all the way
The way to your heart
So the sun is sinking
Deepin the red, the blade makes an end
Love comes stealing softly
Around every corner, around every bend
We're alway cheating
And the very first kiss is where we begin
Goes 'round every corner, around every bend
Lovin' it all the way to the end
icehouse - no promises
a winter palace
from the arabian nights
white waves on an ocean
gems from a golden age
life in your new world
turning round and round
making some sense
where there's no sense at all
no promises
but if you should fall
stars die in the silence
of arabian nights
wind washes the seasons
in these days of a golden age
life in your new world
turning round and round
making some sense
where there's no sense at all
no promises
but if you should fall
I could give you more
than just the shape of things
break every word
begin it all again
your name on a white sheet
pure lace shot with passion
but as love lies
bleeding in your hands
heaven sends you
no promises
of arabian nights
no white waves on an ocean
no gems from a golden age
life in your new world
turning round and round
so make some sense
where there's no sense at all
I give you
no promises
but if you should fall
no promises
but if you should fall
you fall
no promises
but if you should fall
no promises
but if you should fall
you fall
life in your new world
as it turns round and round
no promises
but if you should fall
icehouse - sidewalk
Sidewalk
sleep on the sidewalk
the ragman stands
at the end of the line
his eyes burn
hard in the light of day
so proud
of the American way
But it's a lie, yeah, lie
and you believe every word
well, it's a lie, yeah, lie
but what goes on in your mind?
and when the walls come down
on the American dream
you're gonna sleep on the
sidewalk
In your hands
dirt and blood on your hands
in your day
you didn't need anyone
so look around
remember, yeah, these are your friends
[chorus]
icehouse - touch the fire
she moves like a mystic
like a priestess tall and pale
she lays down the mystery
all her secrets are unveiled
wherever I look I see her there
wherever I go you know she's there
and she takes posession she has control
next to you I can touch the fire
and when the fever takes a hold
next to you I can touch the fire
her words fall in echos
ringing bells like gypsy rhymes
she has the power
no believer can explain
wherever I look I see her there
wherever I go you know she's there
and she takes posession she has control
next to you I can touch the fire
and when the fever takes a hold
next to you I can touch the fire
I feel the heat pumping in my veins
next to you I can touch the fire
I see myself going up in flames
next to you I can touch the fire
wherever I look I see her there
wherever I go you know she's there
she takes posession
she has control
next to you I can touch the fire
and when the fever takes a hold
next to you I can touch the fire
I feel the heat pumping in my veins
next to you I can touch the fire
I see myself going up in flames
next to you I can touch the fire
she takes posession
touch the fire
touch the fire
I feel the heat pumping in my veins
next to you I can touch the fire
I see myself going up in flames
next to you I can touch the fire
icehouse - anybody s land
Her arms around a flag of blue
His clours flying black and white
She hears the voice between the lines
He hears the warning, he turns his black
Anybody's war
Who is there to catch the pieces
Anybody's war
Faces we don't recognise
She catches every last regret
She holds it gently like a dying star
He stands like a small boy in the street
Throwing rocks and stones into the crowd
Anybody's war
Who is there to catch the pieces
Anybody's war
Faces we don't recognise
Anybody's war
Turning round and round in circles
Anybody's war
People just like you and I
Just a little too afraid
To take the blame that they can't hide
Like a frightened child who is running scared
And they know each other well
Through the innocence long gone
Is the only thing they ever shared
She'll promise that she'll try again
He'll promise that he'll settle down
And they will call themselves the best of friends
But still they're strangers, just like anyone
Anybody's war

icehouse - all tomorrows parties
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow's parties
A hand-me-down dress from who knows where
To all tomorrow's parties
And where will she go and what shall she do
When midnight comes around
She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown
And cry behind the door
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow's parties
Why silks and linens of yesterday's gowns
To all tomorrow's parties
And what will she do with Thursday's rags
When Monday comes around
She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown
And cry behind the door
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow's parties
For Thursday's child is Sunday's clown
For whom none will go mourning
A blackened shroud, a hand-me-down gown
Of rags and silks, a costume
Fit for one who sits and cries
For all tomorrow's parties
icehouse - angel street
she draws the curtain wide
and brushes back her hair
she stands before the mirror
wondering what to wear
but she knows no one will care
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
the girl on angel street
so she waits for the call
knowing only too well
a photograph a dusty window
where the sun strays in
everywhere the sounds of morning
as the day begins
people waiting at the station
do they go nowhere
two lines that stretch out in the distance
turn and disappear
but she knows no one will care
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
with the girl on angel street
so she waits for the call
and she waits for so long
knowing only too well
she tells herself there must be more
toujour l'amour l'amour
but she knows no one will care
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
with the girl on angel street
so easy to forget
the girl on angel street
she knows no one will care
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
the girl on angel street
she knows no one will care
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
with the girl on angel street
so easy to forget
with the girl on angel street
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
with the girl on angel street
so easy to forget
just another sad affair
the girl on angel street
icehouse - disappointed
What friends are for
What friends are for
What friends are for
What friends are for
What friends are for
What friends are for
Promises, promises
Old, tired, worn out, second hand sentances
One thing, with you is certain
You're a really sad person
So sad
Dissapointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Dissapointed a few people
Well, isn't that what friends are for? (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?
You, you're just a really sad person
Who won't, you won't listen to anyone
No not you
With those half moon eyelids
Just babbling on, your usless defenses
So sad
Dissapointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Dissapointed a few people
Well isn't that what friends are for (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?
This erratic haphazard, fluttering
This to-ing and fro-ing
Like a confused moth
The collision, illusion
And it's all ad infinitum
You're a really sad person
You're really so sad
Dissapointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Dissapionted a few people
Well isn't that what friends are for (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?
Fools and horses
Running their courses
And brow beaten down
Like dust on the ground
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity
And all of the bastards
The world despises
In newer disguises
You cheat easily
Like all charity
Fools and horses (What friends are for)
Running their courses (What friends are for)
And brow beaten down (What friends are for)
Like dust on the ground (What friends are for)
You cheat easily(What friends are for)
Like sweet charity(What friends are for)
And all of the bastards(What friends are for)
The world despises(What friends are for)
In newer disguises(What friends are for)
You cheat easily(What friends are for)
Like all charity(What friends are for)
icehouse - not my kind
Inside this city, on this empty train
hoping that the late night never lets me go
I travel to the station, to the underground
Where the dark is a friend to me
we race along the subways
he's a cold hand on my shoulder
he has a plan to get you nowhere
and the wind is a friend to me
we're singing on the sidewalk
with the gay boys in the back street
there's a new band and a new beat
well, I remember every now and then
some of the places that we used to go
but, baby, tonight I'm drunk and I don't care
and the dark is a friend to me
we race along the subways
with the gay boys in a back street
there's a new gang and a new beat
now it all comes back to me
we're singing on the sidewalk
There's a cold hand on my shoulder
another plan will get you nowhere
now it all comes back to me
you look so stranded, are you all alone?
I wish there was something more that I could say
you may be someone that I used to know
now that's a memory, that was yesterday
so take a hold, now,
don't ever let love go
don't give it up, now
don't ever let them know
you shake me, babe, you shake me, babe
you give it up so fine
you shake so fine
they turn their faces and they hide their eyes
they don't want to understand, they tell you love is a lie
There's a man on the corner, screaming at the street
"Don't let it get you.."
who are these people
every one of them green
all acting like they're friend of mine
they haven't got a reason, man
they got no rhyme
I don't want to stay here
this is wasting my time
she's just another girl
he's just another boy, and they're
not my kind
icehouse - crazy
I've got a pocket
full of holes
head in the clouds
the king of fools
you've got a ribbon of rainbows
the sun in your eyes
burning through
could be I'm happy and sad
could be I'm losing my head
over you
well, you've gotta be crazy, baby
to want a guy like me
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
So if I'm dreaming
don't wake me tonight
if this is all wrong
I don't want it right
'cause you're the one sure thing
when I get lost in the game
once again
hey, I'm a lucky guy
without a reason and I
don't understand
well, you've gotta be crazy, baby
to want a guy like me
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
Well, there must be some kind of mistake
to give your heart away
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
I've got a pocket
full of holes
head in the clouds
the king of fools
you've got a ribbon of rainbows
the sun in your eyes
burning through
could be I'm happy and sad
could be I'm losing my head
over you
well, you've gotta be crazy, baby
to want a guy like me
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
Well, there must be some kind of mistake
to give your heart away
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
well, you've gotta be crazy, baby
to want a guy like me
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
Well, there must be some kind of mistake
to give your heart away
yeah, you've gotta be out of your mind
crazy
well you've gotta be crazy baby
to want a guy like me
yeah, you've gotta be crazy, baby.....
icehouse - really good time
You´re heard enough
Of the blues and stuff
You´re pretty swell now
´cause you´re pretty tough
But I don´t have to tell you
How hard it can be to get by
You never bothered
About anyone else
You´re well educated
With no common sense
But love - that´s one thing
You really need to get by
All your troubles
Come from yourself
Nobody hurts you
- they don´t care
Just as long as you show them
A really good time
All the things
You used to do
A trip to the movies
A drink or two
They don´t satisfy you
They don´t tell you anything new
You know I don´t talk much
Except to myself
´cause i´ve not much to say
And there´s nobody else
Who´s ready and willing
And able to know me - I guess
Listen to me
I´m not finished yet
There´s something to tell you
That I can´t forget
Just have a really good time
There´s a girl
I used to know
Her face is her fortune
She´s got a heart of gold
She never goes out much
But boy - when she does
Then you know
She´s got no money
Well, maybe a dime
But she knows what she´s worth
And that´s reason why
She´s gonna make it
She´s got what it takes
You´ll appreciate that
She´s probably late
But I know
And you know
We all know
She´ll have a really good time
icehouse - someone like you
Well I wonder some times as I look at you
Was it so very long ago
There were times
There were so many times
Holding on
and it comes only
once in your life
Chorus:
There maybe just a chance
I'll live with you
Maybe you
Maybe someone like you
Someone like you
If a day should go by and I'm without you
Moves so slowly it never ends
All the while
wondering how it could be
Does he know
That it comes only once in your life
(chorus)
Someone like you (x3)
Once in your life
Someone like you
Want someone like you
icehouse - too late now
Just give me the sign and I'll be walking out that door
Don't want to remember this the way it was before
As the rain falls on the ocean and the desert feels the sign
We let it die here, let it slip right through our hands
It's too late now...too late to love, too late to cry
So don't look back...another place, another time
Too late now...to start again, to wonder why...too late now
Just give me the word, though it may be so hard to sing
Just give me a reason why it had to end this way
Steady holding onto nothing like a child, yeah, like a fool
Though you've God, I won't forget, it's the only thing I know
It's too late now...too late to love, too late to cry
So don't look back...another place, another time
Too late now...to start again, to wonder why...too late now
Just give me the sign
It's too late now...too late to love, too late to cry
So don't look back...another place, another time
Too late now...to start again, to wonder why...too late now
Too late now...(ah ah)...Too late now...(ah ah)...
Don't look back...(ah ah)...Too late now...(ah ah)...
icehouse - walls
Listen
If you listen
You will hear an endless heartbeat
On the inside
Through the walls
The sound is crawling
Down the corridors and halls
It cracks the ceiling
The windows and the doors
All the rest won't listen
Though the walls have ears
But they never really look
They just stand and stare
They're all standing
Staring at the walls
Who put the writing on the walls?
Will no-one ever know?
Oh, well i don't mind the walls
Tell me
Why don't you tell me?
Have you got nothing to say?
Tell me where in hell this place is
Tell me why i get no answers
Am i talking, taking to the walls?
So it's running, jumping, standing still
Well i think i've had enough of it all
Get your hands up
Up against the wall
(well, i'm never going back to the factory
No i'll never be a part of the machinery)
Who put the writing on the wall?
Who fights and runs away?
The minutes and the hours pass him
Tracing out the days
The days and nights drag into years
And no-one ever knows
Oh, well i don't mind the walls
Oh, well i don't mind the walls
I don't mind the walls
icehouse - at night
Sunk deep in the night
I sink in the night
Standing alone underneath the sky
I feel the chill of ice
On my face
I watch the hours go by
The hours go by...
You sleep
Sleep in a safe bed
Curled and protected
Protected from sight
Under a safe roof
Deep in your house
Unaware of the changes at night
At night
I hear the darkness breathe
I sense the quiet despair
Listen to the silence
At night
Someone has to be there
Someone has to be there
Someone must be there
