kiss like that
murphy/llewellyn/copyright control

we could find the darkest place
i would stare into your face
run my fingers through your hair
i could love you anywhere
in the kitchen in the hall
push you up against the wall
we wont hear another sound
see the sky turn round and round

a kiss like that
a kiss like that

we wont hear another sound
feel your fingers up and down
we wont hear a sound at all
feel your breathing rise and fall
we could find a darkest place
i would stare into your face
run my fingers through your hair
i could love you anywhere

a kiss like that
a kiss like that



my father was
murphy/llewellyn/copyright control

my father was a sailor sailed the seven seas
my father was a sailor sailed the seven seas
when i was a young girl stories he told me
of all the places he had been faces he had seen

and when i was a young girl those stories strange to me
and when i was a young girl those stories strange to me
pictures that you gave places in my head
only knew when i grew see them for myself

and now i am a woman children of my own
and now i am a woman children of my own
i put my arms around them kisses give them three
i put my arms around them the way you did with me

your brother john your brother john only seventeen
your brother john your brother john only seventeen
went into those waters cold as any grave
dead men all around him only he was saved

he ran home to his mother he was just a boy
he ran home to his mother he was just a boy
she put her arms around him kisses gave him three
my youngest son youngest son home from the sea

you must go back you must go back before they come for you
you must go back you will go back before they come for you
when this war is over and you are on the shore
each man to his woman no more talk of war


lilac tree

one two three four five once i caught a fish alive
six seven eight nine ten then i let him him go
why did you let him go he bit my finger so
which finger did he bite this finger on the right

mrs stoddard lived next door her house smelt like the war
playing in road never doing what your told
jumping jumping one two three underneath the lilac tree
when that tree came down all my dreams on the ground

we grew up together
where are you now?
all our dreams together
where are you now?
loved al green together
where are you now?
girls against the world together
where are you now?

where are you now?


leave him
murphy/llewellyn/copyright control

leave him leave him he can never love you
leave him leave him because he only sees himself
know you’re dreaming if you think you can change this man
if you even see him you may never love again

somewhere theres a lover for you
and he will adore you
love doesn’t have to mean bleeding for him
he just wants you breeding for him

wipe those tears from your eyes
forget him and his lies
wipe those tears from you reyes
forget him forget him
come out with me tonight dancing til the light
someone out there a lover for you a lover for you

leave him leave him he can never love you

train (going west)
murphy/llewellyn/copyright control

train train rolling down that line again
pain pain rolling down my cheeks again
train train rolling through those lights again
pain pain pain rolling down someones cheeks agian

and the headline said 100 dead
my tears falling for them
and the words i read still in my head
when i heard someone calling

pain pain rolling down my cheeks again
when that call came
nothing would be the same again

in this money game
you know the ones to blame
will never say theyre sorry
and for all your tears down all the years
the big men never worry
all your tears down all the years
the big man never worries
in this money game
you know the ones to blame
will never say sorry

fighting for strangers
trad arr murphy/llewellyn
words trad /murphy

our captain cried all hands away tomorrow
leaving us girls to mourn in grief and sorrow
what makes you go abroad fighting for strangers
when you could stay at home
and free from dangers

i’d roll you in my arms my dearest jewel
so stay at home with me and don’t be cruel
she fell upon the floor like one that was dying
this house was filled with grief sighing and crying

you courted me a while just to deceive me
now that you’ve gained my love you mean to leave me
for theres no trusting man not my own brother
so girls if you would love love only each other

the drums are beating love the pipes are playing
i must be on my way no longer staying
dry off those brandy tears and keep from weeping
and happy we will be at our next meeting

you cannot leave me now i carry your baby
and he will grow to know that you did betray me
go go on go your country needs you
but we both need you too
we both need you too
we both need you too


fasting girl

gods own s touched this girl with a sign for the world
her mother knew that it wasnt true
just enough passed the lips
of this mouth never kissed

fasting girl

wont tell a lie too young to die
soon she’ll fly to heaven so high
the priests of the law they oversaw
saying we’re not to blame for a young girls game

fasting girl

priests of the law they oversaw
and they watched as they sat
til she died, funny that

night visit

one night while sleeping
just before day
you came to me
i heard you say

dont worry darling
dont cry for me
dont worry darling
dont cry for me

i reached to hold you
there in the dawn
as my eyes opened
you were gone

dont worry darling
dont cry for me
dont worry darling
dont cry for me
