TEXAS (THE HUSH)
 

In our lifetime
Tell me the answer
Summer son
Sunday afternoon
Move in
When we are together
Day after day
Saint
Girl
The hush
The day before I went away

 
In Our Lifetime
 
 There are things
 I can't tell you
 I love you too much to say
 I stand undressed
 But I'm not naked
 You look at me and who I am

 Understand that it is hard to tell you
 That I've given all I have to give
 And I can understand your feelings
 But then everybody has a life to live

(chorus) :
 Once in our lifetime
 You have seen what I've seen
 You will always swim for shore
 Once in my lifetime
 I'll never be in between
 Some things you just can't ignore

 Now reach out
 You can touch me
 I'll let you have my life to share
 Years, the days
 And the minutes
 Yeh time has such a puzzling grace

 Understand that it is hard to tell you
 That I've given all I have to give
 And I can understand your feelings
 But then everybody has a life to live

(chorus)x2

 I just need to have your love
 I just can't say no
 It's a gift from way above
 I just can't say no
 It's the one big difference
 If there's one thing I can have
 I just can't say no
 I just can't say no
 Yeh yeh yeh

(chorus)x2

 Once in a lifetime
 
 

Tell Me The Answer
 

 I doesn't feel right
 The lights are too bright
 I'm feeling uptight in my sensual world
 I need to be you
 I need to breathe too
 I need to see through life
 With these sensitive words

 I could blame it on you
 I could blame it on my instincts
 I could blame it on the train to the plane
 The boat to the shore
 So tell me what's the answer

(chorus) :
 No trouble in my face
 There's not one anxious voice
 You know I can't listen
 I can't listen
 You say that you are everything
 Do you taste good
 So common, common, common
 Common, common, common

 No air around me
 I need to feel free
 I'm private property
 In my sensual world
 No indecision
 I have a vision
 There's no collision there
 With these sensitive words

 I could blame it on you
 I could blame it on my instincts
 I could blame it on the train to the plane
 The boat to the shore
 So tell me what's the answer

(chorus)x3

 All from too much choice yeh yeh

 I could blame it on the train to the plane
 The boat to the shore
 So tell me what's the answer

 C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
 C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
 C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
 
 

Summer Son
 
I'm tired of telling the story
Tired of telling it your way
Yeh I know what I saw
I know that I found the floor

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I am over you

I thought I had a dream to hold
Maybe that has gone
Your hands reach out and touch me still
But this feels so wrong

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

I'm over you..
 
 

Sunday Afternoon
 
 I can think of better days
 As I look into your eyes
 And I feel that in a way
 I know that you'll be alright

 And he walks for a mile
 It's his style
 Baby never acts wild
 Feels he's invincible
 He walks for a while
 But I never ask why
 He needs his time in isolation

(chorus) :
 It's your views
 On your groove
 On a Sunday afternoon
 Pain is slow
 Then you'll know
 What you need to work out soon

 I'm gonna whisper in your ear
 I've a lot of things to say to you
 I'll give you all my universe
 You're all I want and that's for sure

 And he walks for a mile
 It's his style
 Baby never acts wild
 Feels he's invincible
 He walks for a while
 But I never ask why
 He needs his time in isolation

(chorus)x2

 In your darkest hour
 Take my hand and I'll show you
 Understand it much better
 I'll make sure you get there

(chorus)x2
 
 

Move In
 
 Move in, move in
 Move in, watch me move in

 Invite me to a party
 Hang some color on the walls
 It makes me feel like eighteen
 I'm gonna change things for us all

 Sooner or later the music goes
 I see a trace of sweat on your face

 Move in, move in
 Remember now the times we had
 Move in, watch me move in
 Remember now the times we had

 Our world's turned round but that's okay
 Yet, things still look the same
 People dancing so much
 Keep it pushing come what may

 Sooner or later the music goes
 I see a trace of sweat on your face

(chorus) :
 Move in, move in
 Remember now the times we had
 Move in, watch me move in
 Remember now the times we had

 I see the lights are low now
 But still the faces glow
 A year that's full of zeros
 Yet who knows what that holds

 Sooner or later the music goes
 I see a trace of sweat on your face

(chorus)x3

 Lead on
 Oh the music goes
 And I feel it pushing on, baby
 I feel it's pushing
 Push against me
 Please, stop
 I feel the music
 Inside me
 
 

When We Are Together
 
 Oh, I remember you said can I fight and breathe
 So now I always, always hold my breath you see
 You're my heaven, you're my spaceman in your shiny shiny suit
 I'll send up all my prayers and hope they're understood

 Love started making sense
 I always make mistakes at my expense
 Love has placed a seed
 And you're the sun that shines down upon me

(chorus) :
 Yeh when we are together
 And when we are apart
 There is no space in our hearts
 I've got these feelings

 It's been too long since I've tried to take the time
 So now I'm fallin', fallin' into the sublime
 When you brush against a stranger
 And you both apologize
 And when you see there's something you recognize

 Love started making sense
 I always make mistakes at my expense
 Love has placed a seed
 And you're the sun that shines down upon me

(chorus)x5
 
 

Day After Day
 
 One day I'll have to face the truth
 I will
 I know I'll find it hard to wake up
 And say these words to you

 So did the days drag on for you
 Was I gone for too long
 There's something changing in me
 I've got to show it
 Got to show you

(chorus) :
 Cause day after day without you
 I find that there's no one to turn to
 All this madness that I've found
 I'm so thankful when you're around

 It's true, yes I do

 In every place I'll face a world
 Of strangers
 We'll talk and laugh about the good times
 We had together

 So did the days drag on for you
 Was I gone for too long
 There's something changing in me
 I've got to show it
 Got to show you

(chorus)x2
 It's true, yes I do

 There are times when I see you
 There are times when I'm mad
 When I wake you disappear
 That's what I always find so hard

(chorus)x2
 It's true, yes I do
 It's true, yes I do
 
 

Saint
 
 I'm taking my time
 I'll fix it, don't worry now
 I'm needing you there
 Make sure that you're coming too

 All of my life
 Is all I give you here
 The meaning of me
 Is something to pursue

 You think I'm a saint
 It's in your pretty head
 Stretched out like a saint now
 I love you to death

(chorus) :
 Catch another dream now
 We can find them somehow
 I know that there's a boy inside the man
 Catch another dream now
 Take all we are allowed
 For I know that there's a man inside the boy

 Grown ups don't know
 How to dream anymore
 Their heads in the sand
 And they choose to ignore it all

 All of my life
 Is all I give you here
 The meaning of me
 Is something to pursue

 You think I'm a saint
 It's in your pretty head
 Stretched out like a saint now
 I love you to death

(chorus)

 You think I'm a saint
 It's in your pretty head
 Stretched out like a saint now
 I love you to death

(chorus)x2

 A man inside the boy
 You think I'm a saint
 It's in your pretty head
 
 

Girl
 
All the money's on your hip now
Need to take another trip down
Protect all mothers for they lay in the path
I can deal with the lovers
Always dealt with dreams
But I've never known what reality means

Cause you're the sweetest thing
I've waited for
I feel so good about you

You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, you've got the power
Girl, you've got the power

Lay me down to the right side
Tie me up till it feels fine
You know the uses and you've no compromise
Put it down with the two time
I always know when it feels right
I will if you will, I'm just taking my time

Cause you're the sweetest thing
I've waited for
I feel so good about you

You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, you've got the power
Girl, you've got the power

Cause you're the sweetest thing
I've waited for
I feel so good about you

You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, you've got the power
Girl, you've got the power

You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, you've got the power
Girl, you've got the power
 
 

The Hush
 
I'm a long long way from yesterday
And with time my ideals change
I want to spend all of my time
The way that it should be spent

Road maps here of 20 towns
Flights a faithless place
I eat another Milk Bar down
Yawn and wash my face

You know you're nervous when you see me sway
Too much time by yourself
You know you always seem to back away
Don't hide within yourself

There's a certain hill I want to climb
Like tar bubbles on the path
When they all pop up in summertime
Forever my climb will last

Road maps here of 20 towns
Flights a faithless place
I eat another Milk Bar down
Yawn and wash my face

You know you're nervous when you see me sway
Too much time by yourself
You know you always seem to back away
Don't hide within yourself

Hush hush shhh
Hush hush shhh
Hush hush shhh
Hush hush shhh

You know you're nervous when you see me sway
Too much time by yourself
You know you always seem to back away
Don't hide within yourself
 
 

The Day Before I Went Away
 
 I tried to tell you that on Monday
 The day before I went away
 I was always there when you were coming down
 I had to take some time
 Take some time

 You know I'm needing you for so much pleasure
 I'm always wanting you to take me there
 I need to be the one to tell you that you're on the right road
 And how some time alone is only fair

 You know I'm renowned
 And feel it's a lonely time I had
 But it never felt that bad

 I tried to tell you that on Monday
 The day before I went away
 I was always there when you were coming down
 You never took the time
 Took the time

 I wish you'd known me when I was much younger
 As I closed my eyes upon the world
 But now an open mind which seems much stronger
 A perfect doubting of your every word

 You know I'm renowned
 And feel it's a lonely time I had
 But it never felt that bad

 I tried to tell you that on Monday
 The day before I went away
 I was always there when you were coming down
 You never took the time
 Took the time

 C'mon c'mon
 C'mon c'mon
 C'mon c'mon
 C'mon c'mon

 You know I'm renowned
 For the lonely time I had
 But it never felt that bad

 I tried to tell you that on Monday
 The day before I went away
 I was always there when you were coming down
 You never took the time
 Took the time

 I tried to tell you that on Monday
 The day before I went away
 I was always there when you were coming down
 You never took the time
 Took the time

 Never took the time
 Never took the time
 Never took the time
 To stop me
 I always wanted you to stop me
 You never took the time
