Here And Now lyrics - Aqualung
So
We've been spiralling
Been spinning around between a haven't and a had
And
Never deciphering
Just why and when it all began to go so bad
Yet
There's no denying love
It's just gets harder to tell if you're drifting in
Or fading out
Oh but I
I miss your kiss
I miss your smile
I hope you know
Here and now
I'm telling you I love you so
Here and now
How
This is a love worth fighting for
Here and now
So
While my heart's
Beating
Let's be in love
When
We become becalmed
When we run aground
Out in the middle of the open sea
Please don't delete your messages
Just bottle them up and
Hope they float around to me
Darling I
I miss your kiss
I miss your smile
I hope you know
Here and now
I'm telling you I love you so
Here and now
How
This is a love worth fighting for
Here and now
So
While my heart's
Beating
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
I hope you know
Here and now
I'm telling you I love you so
Here and now
How
This is a love worth fighting for
Here and now
So
While my hand
Holding
Holding my breath
Breathing
My heart's
Beating
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Champion Of The World lyrics - Aqualung
Standing on my shoulders
With your chin squared at the world
Taking on the world
Growing always growing
Are you looking where you're going, honey?
So you're a soldier now?
Your heart marching to that beat
You got it
Your boots just a bit too big for your feet
But you're a soldier now
Champion of the world
Filling in your feathers
Always dreaming of the sky
Just don't look down
And we'll be down here beaming
Barely breathing
Til you're back on solid ground
So you're a soldier now?
Your heart belting out that tune
You got it
Your feet just a bit too big for your shoes
You grab it
Jumped in like you got nothing to lose
You got it
And who knows where you're taking it to...
But you're a soldier now
You're a soldier now, now, now
Can we just stop for a second
Freeze frame, just stop for a second
Take a look at that face for a second
Just remember this place for a second
Kick open that door
Champion of the world
Sail on, Danny
Sail on, Danny
Sail on
Your turn to be champion now
Sail on, Danny, oh
Your turn to be champion now
Sail on, Danny, oh
Your turn to be champion now
You're a soldier now
You're a soldier now
It's your turn to be champion now
It's your turn to be a champion now...
Fool lyrics - Aqualung
I still don't know
What I was waiting for
When nothing changes anymore
The world still turning in the usual way
And the two of us go on the same
Just the two of us
It's been a while since I told the truth
The way I feel when I look at you
The words are old
And they're overused
But that doesn't stop them
Being true
So I'm going to say it
Straight out
You're the star in my sky
And all I do
Is reflect your light
You think I'm a fool
I think you're right
Some people say
That the magic's gone
Once you find out how
The trick is done
But I watch those same old records
Spin
And I never want the song to end
Just play me the same old song
Again
So don't you hear what I say?
You're the hurricane
That blows me away
I close my eyes
And I hold on tight
You think I'm a fool
I think you're right
I do
I hold on tight
You think I'm a fool
I think you're right
The other morning
The sun came out
Pushed his arms
Right through the clouds
I looked at you
And I heard you say
"I hope you shine on me
Til my dying day"
Won't you shine on me
Won't you shine on me
Won't you shine on me
Won't you shine on me
I'm going to say it
I'm going to say it
I'm going to say it
I'm going to say it
You think I'm a fool
You think I'm a fool
I'm going to say it
Straight out
You're the star in my sky
And all I do
Is reflect your light
You think I'm a fool
I think you're right
I think you're right
I think you're right
Imperfect Cadence lyrics - Aqualung
Sweet soul
How we rock and we roll
And I'd give anything
To take it back and change everything
Sweet soul
The music swallows you whole
And you're the only one
Who really hears where it's coming from
Unfinished sentence
Still singing on a broken chord
Imperfect cadence
Still waiting on the right resolve
Old friend
There's a text that won't send
It says forgive me
I owe you every note that you've given me
Your sweet song
We softly singing along
I hear it everywhere
Just turn it up, it is everywhere
Unfinished sentence
Still singing on a broken chord
Imperfect cadence
Still waiting on the right resolve
Uncommon radiance
Still singing on a broken chord
Imperfect cadence
Still waiting on the right resolve
Still singing on a broken chord
Still waiting on the right resolve
November lyrics - Aqualung
Woke up this morning
With my heartache gone
Bright golden morning
Shining everyone
You held my daughter's hand
You held my daughter's hand
This strange November
Leaves fluttering
Still long November
Winter muttering
You kissed my son today
You kissed his frown away
You held my son today
I remembered the song we were singing
Just remembered the dream we were dreaming
There was noise on the line but it's gone, gone
Gone
And everything's clear
And everything's quiet
Woke up this morning
[?]
Spoke up this morning
Took a deeper breath
You hold my mother's hand
I hold my mother's hand
She held her mother's hand
Not asking for some toll certainty
Just one pacific possibility
See my father's eyes
Look in my father's eyes
You held the son today
I remembered the song we were singing
Just remembered the dream we were dreaming
Couldn't hear for the noise but it's gone, gone
Gone
And everything's quiet
And everything's clear
And you were right there
And I am right here
And I hear it
I hear it now
I hear it
I hear it now
I can hear it
I can hear it now
Possible Impossible lyrics - Aqualung
Impossible to fight
When I'm only half right
When there's nobody in the ring
But me
Impossible to win
But I'll never give in
Until I lose everything
So please
Don't change my mind
I'm not ready to be wrong
Don't you
Open my eyes
Cos I've known it all along
I know what I had
I know what you want
But there's something in the way
There's something in the way now
Was it impossible to be
What I needed to be
When you dared me to look
Your way?
Was it impossible to see
What was coming for me
Or had I turned and turned
Away?
Don't change my mind
I'm not ready to be wrong
Don't you
Open my eyes
Cos I've known it all along
I know what you need
You need me to stay
But there's something in the way
There's something in the way
I'd fall at your feet
Collapse in your arms
But there's something in the way
Something in the way now
Something in the way now
Always in the way now
Add Me Up lyrics - Aqualung
When the next note falls
I will tell her
When the right word calls
I will tell her
Whether short or tall
She's the measure of me
And when I lose my way
My inner vision
When I sweat and sway
Through the long division
She's the prayer I pray
The answer I need
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
To add me up
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
To add me up, add me up
So add me up, add me
There's a secret key
To our composition
Wonky symmetry
In our isorhythm
Only you plus me
Could ever undo
I need it, I need
When the right words call
When the magic of the right notes fall
I will grab it
And I'll sing them all
I'll sing and I'll sing and
I'll sing 'til I've summed up them all
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
To add me up
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
To add me up, add me up
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
To add me up, add me up
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
To add me up, add me up
So add me up, add me up
Cause I can't figure me out
No I can't figure me out
I just can't figure me out
No I can't figure me out out out
Devotion lyrics - Aqualung
Silent, still my mountain sleeps
Ancient foothills buried deep
Bale of bone, your counsel keeps
Me wondering, oh wonder
Whisper to her stony face
Show me my enchanted place
Concertina time and space
It's everywhen, always
And when I'm gone
Turned into songs
You'll be the one
To guide me home
Tide me back home
Overflow the ocean
This is my devotion
My one secret benediction
My only
Bad Dreams lyrics - Aqualung
What goes up must surely come down
And ever since my luck turned around
That's been ringing in my ears
And maybe there's no credit or debt
And it's just a matter of holding your breath
And laughter isn't weighed in tears?
I'll take the bad dreams
Gladly suffer those bad dreams
Every broken goodnight
Every missing heartbeat
Oh I take the bad dreams
Gladly suffer those bad bad dreams
If it keeps you safe
If it keeps you safe
One more day
Every living thing moves, every living thing grows
And one day you'll wave from your yellow brick road
And I'll wave back 10 fingers crossed
Wondering when the time comes what will you choose?
Something to live for or nothing to lose?
Sunburst smile or midnight blues?
I, I, I
I, I, I
I'll take the bad dreams
Gladly suffer those bad dreams
Every broken goodnight
Every missing heartbeat
Oh I take the bad dreams
Gladly suffer those bad bad dreams
If it keeps you safe love
If it keeps you safe
The falling, the burning
The knock at the door
The knocking, the screaming
The silence, the roar
The tearing, the killing
The ariel view
Your beautiful face
On the 10 o'clock news
The mountain you climb
But you never come down
The misunderstanding
The wrong side of town
That scared motherfucker
Who's standing his ground
On and on oh
I'll take the bad dreams
Every broken goodnight
Missing heartbeat
Oh I take the bad dreams
Sweat a lifetime of bad bad dreams
If it keeps you safe
Keeps you safe
One more day
One more day
All She Wore, She Was lyrics - Aqualung
All she wore was her velvet skin and half a smile
All she wanted was a moment to be mine
Oh she told me that I shouldn't believe in angels
Said all we have is a little time but don't let that get you down
Why, she asks do you take things oh so seriously?
Don't you know it's all for nothing in the end?
So she lives her life in moments
Says she'll haunt me when it's over
She'll send her ghost
Round and round again
Knocks me down
And then it comes around again
Think its over till it takes another swing
A single word can raise the dead
And I remember every single word you said
But I'd rather keep my cards close to my chest
Than ever say your name
All she wore
She was
Complicated lyrics - Aqualung
Complicated
She says the future is overrated
On the very first morning we woke up
She tells me, "No getting your hopes up"
She's so hard and she's so tough
She's so cold to the touch but
Underneath the ice I see fire
'Cause it wasn't a dream
I heard when you said it, oh
You know that I wasn't asleep
I heard when you said it, oh
She, she don't do crowded
Says her life used to be sweet
But she soured it
She tells me there's no secret door
No secret smile
No secret passageway but
But I've found it
When I need more she gives me less
She's so hard to impress but
Underneath the ice I see fire
'Cause it wasn't a dream
I heard when you said it, oh
You know that I wasn't asleep
I heard when you said it, oh
And I will leave it alone
I know you'll deny it, oh
I'm keepin' my feet on the ground
But instead I'm flyin'
Oh, oh, oh
Some songs are dreams
Some songs are plans
Some songs are lies
You never knew you meant
Oh-oh-oh
Some come in third
And are never heard
Some change the world
And some just pay the rent
They pay the rent
No way to say
No way to say
No tellin' what
This song is meant to be
Is meant to be, oh
I want you to know
Want you to know
Need you to know
Your secret's safe with me
Complicated
She's complicated
'Cause it wasn't a dream
I heard when you said it, oh
You know that I wasn't asleep
I heard when you said it, oh
And I will leave it alone
I know you'll deny it, oh
I'm keepin' my feet on the ground
But instead I'm flyin', flyin', flyin'
Flyin', flyin', flyin', flyin', flyin', flyin'
And I will leave it alone
I know you'll deny it, oh
I'm keepin' my feet on the ground
But instead I'm flyin', oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Fingermouse lyrics - Aqualung
Running will kill you but I won't
The girl with her top on back to front
She says the moon is a dream
That the planet forgot
Says it just want to be near you
And there's a moon on my fingernail
Gather round
And no you can't blame the architects
Coloured sand
I know it's easier to shrug
Than understand
This is the only only only
Life that we're living
The only one that we're given
Some eyes are windows
Some are doors
One day I'll climb out of mine
And climb in through yours
Watch as they open and shut
As they lock up for the night
As they unlock in the morning
And there's a moon on my fingernail
Gather round
And no you can't blame the architects
Coloured sand
I know it's easier to shrug
Than understand
This is the only only lonely
Life that we're living
The only one that we're given
And we are mapping the future
One foot in from of the other
You.you in every sunrise smile
You and all the shit you bring home
You don't need to know but
There's a golden bear
It's strong arms surrounding you
And I won't ever let go
All you need to know is
This will do
Yes this love will do
Cause there's a moon on my fingernail
Gather round
And no you can't blame the architects
Coloured sand
I know it's easier to shrug
Than understand
This is the only only only
Life that we're living
The only one that we're given
And we are mapping the future
One foot in from of the other
The only life that we're living
So clap your hands cause you're winning
Striding out into the future
Just say the word and I'll race you home
Just say it
Cause this will do
Yes this love will do
This love will do
Use Me lyrics - Aqualung
Why do you grow your teeth so long
Why wait til you've bitten yourself?
What do you need to wear them down?
Who is looking out for your dental health?
What if everything that you want
Is a cover up - that's covering up
What you've already found?
Cos I got
Every little thing you need
So why not
Slide a little closer
Glide a little closer
Cos life runs a lifetime
Romance has a half life
You don't have to lose me
Just learn how to use me
Life lasts a lifetime
Romance has a half life
You don't have to choose me
Just learn how to use me
When did we drift so far?
I swear the tide was pulling us in
But now I can't see the shore
We can go anywhere, but where to begin?
What are you looking for when we've got
Everything we'll ever need
Just use a little imagination
A little imagination
Cos life runs a lifetime
Romance has a half life
You don't have to lose me
Just learn how to use me
Life lasts a lifetime
Romance has a half life
You don't have to choose me
Just learn how to use me
Just learn how to use me
Just learn how to use me
How to use me
Just learn how to use me
