It takes a long night when you unravel at home



Don't know that she knows
What it is she doing
Don't know that she knows
How deep this will cut
Can't believe you really think
We'll make it through this oh
You fucked me right up
Just fucked me right up

All alone in a house that we were living
All that love just walked out the door
She's off running around
With a brand new man, oh
You fucked me right up
Just fucked me right up

I got a long way to travel
With a heaviness taking hold
It takes a long night
When you unravel at home

Don't know that she knows
What it is she doing
Don't know that she knows
We are throwing it all away
Tell me how you think
We're gonna make it through this oh
You fucked me right up
Just fucked me right up

Don't know that she knows
Or even if it matters
The cut's been made
The dice have been thrown

What was our love worth
If it's something we could gamble oh
You fucked me right up
Fucked me right up

Goodbye goodbye
Goodbye goodbye

—Sean Hayes / Fucked Me Right Up

Impart some of the wisdom from that tried and tested man

This album is just fantastic. Excellent purchase from the land of Scots.



My hopes are high but my eyes can't
believe what they see,
Give me something to believe,
give me something to believe
I got lucky in life and had plenty to eat and
I saw this world as one big pool of opportunity
But there's too much mind corruption,
too little remedy (or that's how it seems to me)
Yeah we need a moral education to
set the young minds free...

So let us change what we can and
Accept what we can't
Impart some of the wisdom
from that tried and tested man
There's no harm in being wrong you know no,
in fact to me, it's common ground - yeah
So take that feather from you cap sir,
and pass that feather around...

My hopes are high but my eyes can't
believe what they see,
Give me something to believe in,
give me something to believe
My hopes are high but my eyes
can't believe what they see
My hopes are high
Give me something,
give me something to believe

It's like I'm a part of something real.



Sitting beside you in school,
While we'd paint I'd make you laugh
Mine was never very good,
Yours looked exactly like the photograph

Looks like I'm growing, I'm growing up beside you

I don't always get the way you feel,
But now I've learned to live with that
it's like I'm a part of something real
I was hittin' the bottle, now I've broken the seal

Looks like I'm growing, I'm growing up beside you

And the sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I'll be growing, growing up beside you

Oh, The sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I'll be growing, growing up beside you

And the sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I'll be growing, growing up beside you

The sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I'll be growing, growing up beside you

Looks like I'm growing, growing up beside you

--Pablo Natini, Growing Up Beside You

And dreamed of all the different ways I had to make her glow



"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven
