Love Era/Irony

Celebration

I told you about the strife
And you said "That's tough. Ah, don't talk about it."
Then it's some company not a toy
And you don't know with that cat about
You don't know or care about it
The Church Discography
It's a celebration
It's a celebration
The Church Discography
Hey, she tears it away
This party is going straight to my head
Every story, something about it
I can remember the way she mouths it
The Church Discography
I'm wondering why her eyes shine
If I'm drugged I'm not aware of it
And besides if it was that good,
This has erased the memory
The Church Discography
Closer and closer to me
There's just two people in this room
You're gonna play me
Like your favourite tune
The Church Discography
And when you call me "mellow 'wake'r of dreams"
I never know if it's true
And when you call me "a pleasant change"
I just don't know what to say back to you
Are you coming our way
As I can hear you say
"Seal the world of my darkened fear"?
The Church Discography
I woke up and swooned but it's not more than I can take
The Church Discography
Enter Tuesday, maybe we'll find it in a bite
It was shameless delight
Words float like muses, a scent in it chooses
So's I can find the right set that'll touch your lights
Speak to me how the will is wrong here
Toward her I have to reach
But baby, baby, you needn't hurry
Not more than anything
The Church Discography
It's coming on and on and on
It goes on and on and on

 

Thankyou

Thankyou
I nearly missed so thankyou
You should be kissed, yeah thankyou
It was you who made my wish come true
The Church Discography
My every word you seem to hear
Peaceful mooring at your pier
Holding under southern skies
Caring more than for a slice
The Church Discography
Thankyou
I have to run but thankyou
For all you've done, yeah thankyou
You really came through
The Church Discography
Who, if not me has to say to you
"There's a knowing in your eyes
A place for you in paradise"?

 

Two In A Million

Hey there's something that's rare to find
When all falls together and nothing's timed
Under a spell with the power of song
When I'm with you, I can do no wrong
The Church Discography
We're two in a million
The Church Discography
The gods gave us more than we could ask in prayer
And all because we had some time to spare
Searching was fine but it didn't hit this height
The difference was clear at the end of the night

 

Come A Day

Yeah yeah
The Church Discography
I lay the picture low
Down in my soul
Heal with time, time
The Church Discography
Yeah yeah
There'll come a day
Yeah yeah
The Church Discography
Yeah yeah
You'll go out and make it pay
Yeah yeah
The Church Discography
They scar the body black
All over the town
Trying to hide
Yeah yeah
Yet I just can't refrain
The pain inside
It remains
The Church Discography
Yeah yeah
There'll come a day
Yeah yeah
The Church Discography
Yeah yeah
You're gonna make it all pay
Yeah yeah

 

Sound

[revised Nov. 17, 2004]

(Ahh, ss-sound
Ss-sound, ahh)
The Church Discography
Ah you really turned me on
With everything today
You really turned me on
The way you did what you did today
The Church Discography
Yeah, I wanna
Yeah, I gotta yeah
Yeah, if you wanna take a journey to a foreign land
There's a train leaving now
Come aboard
We'll write a song about it
We're going where you never ever been
The Church Discography
(Ss-sound, ahh)
The Church Discography
I wanna tell you
You are good for me
Everyday and every night, yeah
Together we'll dream right now
And kiss the candlelight bye
The Church Discography
What do you say?
Can you hear it?
The sound of fear is missing
You can hear it
Then we've gotta listen
Yeah we gotta listen
The Church Discography
Yeah, I wanna
Yeah, I gotta yeah
Yeah, if you wanna take a journey to a foreign land
There's a train leaving now
(Ss-sound, ahh) We gotta listen, yeah
Come aboard
We'll write a song about it
We're going where you've never been

 

Apex Farmer

You must have thought that I made it all up
But you don't understand
The Church Discography
It's times like these that I think of her
A breezy essence floats on my memory
Coming and fading like the fleeting smiles
Blissful wonder and serenity
The Church Discography
A mirror for my self-preservation
Playground of my rambling search
The Church Discography
But now that she is gone
I see the echo of her in the eyes of others
And a deep breath escapes my lips
At the distance between sisters and brothers

 

Oblivion & Beyond

Women voices from mountain tops
Calling from afar
Their faces never stop
Tugging at the heart
The Church Discography
They're gonna take just a little while
Before they take you like a smile
On to oblivion
And then beyond
The Church Discography
They're gonna take you for a ride
They're gonna take you for a ride
The Church Discography
Willing vices build up the speed
Falling towards fate
Trees of the planted seeds
Climbed until they break
The Church Discography
Gonna take you for a ride
Gonna take you for a ride

 

Message

I got a message I don't understand
About the people, about the plan
"There is a power and it's in our hands
To stop the world turning to sand"
The Church Discography
I've got a message
I've got a message for you
I've got a message
A message for you
The Church Discography
I'm wondering why it is and who even cares
Beyond the instinct into the prayers
"It's not the game, it's the way it is played
That we'll take with us when it's all put away"
The Church Discography
Welcome to the middle of your mind
The Church Discography
I got a message I don't understand
To just exist, make no demands
I'm wondering why it is we know we're alive
When all the rest only need to strive
The Church Discography
Welcome to the middle
Welcome to the middle of your mind

 

Make A Move

You're acting like I made us fight
And with you might bring you doom
But hey let's wear it, we've got something to share
That never ever felt as strong
The Church Discography
Make a move on me
Make a move on me
The Church Discography
It's been three broken years
Though you've always been dear
No good if I reach you
And no good if I meet you
You only come back when you feel clear
The Church Discography
Make a move on me
Make a move on me
Make the stars come alive

 

Luminous

Have you seen the light behind you
History the light
A prophecy that might remind you
Guiding through the night
The Church Discography
Oh mercy
Oh have mercy
The Church Discography
Tranquillity exists for me
Between the wrong and right
Rules are made for those who need them
There's no need to bite
UFO's would come to us
But we must be a fright
The Church Discography
And you talk your way
You walk away
You hawk your way to hell itself
The Church Discography
If you showed a real emotion
I'd be on your side
Yet fortunes make you rise to anger
At your out-gone tide
The Church Discography
Have you seen the lights behind you
Have you seen the lights
The Church Discography
You hawk your way to hell itself
You walk away but you'll be back again

 

Esoterica

With the wind the willow tree
Reminds me how I long to be
Every sound a mystery
That calls us out upon our mystic trip
On our mystic trip
The Church Discography
And when it comes to luck, you're on side
Our wandering soul is where it hides
The Church Discography
All around, the ground below
We float on cries until we're close
On our mystic trip
The Church Discography
And when it comes to change, the drear shies
We travel through romancing skies
The Church Discography
Beyond fields of caring now
Where circumstance will show us how
Further than a hope can see into the world
Of wish set free
On our mystic trip
The Church Discography
(On our mystic trip)
