You're my, you're my underscore.
My kite in a thunderstorm.
When you're cold, I will keep you warm.
You're my, you're my auto-chord
Anagram of a dirty word.
The best joke I ever heard
The best joke I ever will.
You're my compass my magnetic north,
You keep this old ship on course.
Without you we would all be lost
So I'm begging you, to stay true.
When I write, you're the perfect verse.
I'll send it out through the universe.
Steal a star, just for the two of us.
See all, all the things we've made.
Ticket tape and the motorcade.
Dip a toe into our middle age
Dip a toe and in we'll go
You're my compass my magnetic north,
You keep this old ship on course.
Without you we would all be lost
So I'm begging you...
My compass my magnetic north,
You keep this old ship on course.
Without you we would all be lost
So I'm begging you...
to stay true.

7 Keys lyrics - aqualung
It wasn't open but somehow you let yourself in
Closed off and broken, I never wanted to go there again
I wasn't waiting but you came at just the right time
Maybe I'm wasted, I never knew I could feel so alive
Darling believe you're closer than anyone has ever been
So baby don't leave me alone, I'm yours for eternity
You hold the 7 keys to my soul
I feel so connected like I've known you all along
I never expected to fall into loving so deep
So deep and so strong
Darling believe you're closer than anyone has ever been
So baby don't leave me alone, I'm yours for eternity
You hold the 7 keys to my soul
Closer than anyone, this is where we belong [x4]
Darling believe you're closer than anyone has ever been
So baby don't go, I'm yours for eternity
You, you, you, you
7 keys to my soul
7 keys to my soul
You hold the 7 keys to my soul
Closed off and broken, I never wanted to go there again
I wasn't waiting but you came at just the right time
Maybe I'm wasted, I never knew I could feel so alive
Darling believe you're closer than anyone has ever been
So baby don't leave me alone, I'm yours for eternity
You hold the 7 keys to my soul
I feel so connected like I've known you all along
I never expected to fall into loving so deep
So deep and so strong
Darling believe you're closer than anyone has ever been
So baby don't leave me alone, I'm yours for eternity
You hold the 7 keys to my soul
Closer than anyone, this is where we belong [x4]
Darling believe you're closer than anyone has ever been
So baby don't go, I'm yours for eternity
You, you, you, you
7 keys to my soul
7 keys to my soul
You hold the 7 keys to my soul
Slip-Sliding Away lyrics - aqualung
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a man, he came from my home town
He wore this bad shirt for his woman like a thorny crown
He said, "Dolores, I live in fear"
"My love for you is so overpowering I'm afraid that I will disappear"
He's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a woman, became a wife
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
She says, "A good day ain't got not rain"
She said, "A bad day is when I lie in bed and think of things that might've been"
She's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
You're slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
Mmhmmm
And I know a father who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping and he turned around and headed home again
He's slip-sliding, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a man, he came from my home town
He wore this bad shirt for his woman like a thorny crown
He said, "Dolores, I live in fear"
"My love for you is so overpowering I'm afraid that I will disappear"
He's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a woman, became a wife
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
She says, "A good day ain't got not rain"
She said, "A bad day is when I lie in bed and think of things that might've been"
She's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
You're slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
Mmhmmm
And I know a father who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping and he turned around and headed home again
He's slip-sliding, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
You know the nearer the destination the more you're slip-sliding away
Can't Get You Out Of My Mind lyrics - aqualung
A kiss is not just a kiss
A smile is more than a smile
Maybe we get together, maybe forever
Maybe just for a while
I've seen the look in your eyes
I've seen you wondering why
There's a center of graviy
Bring you near to me
Nearer all the time
And I'm petrified, I'm hypnotised
Every time you walk by
And I can't get you out of my
Thought you'd never be mine
I thought I was wasting my time
Darling every I think of you
I can't believe it's true
That you're here by my side
And I'm petrified, I'm hypnotised
Every time you walk by
And I'm petrified, I'm hypnotised
Every time you walk by
And I can't get you out of my mind
I can't get you out of my mind
I can't get you out of my mind
A smile is more than a smile
Maybe we get together, maybe forever
Maybe just for a while
I've seen the look in your eyes
I've seen you wondering why
There's a center of graviy
Bring you near to me
Nearer all the time
And I'm petrified, I'm hypnotised
Every time you walk by
And I can't get you out of my
Thought you'd never be mine
I thought I was wasting my time
Darling every I think of you
I can't believe it's true
That you're here by my side
And I'm petrified, I'm hypnotised
Every time you walk by
And I'm petrified, I'm hypnotised
Every time you walk by
And I can't get you out of my mind
I can't get you out of my mind
I can't get you out of my mind
Good Goodnight lyrics - aqualung
You talk in your sleep, I hear you say beautiful things
I love you I do, you know that I do
The world is awake but you don't hear
A sound that it makes, asleep in dreams so deep
Peace in your heart, peace in your soul
Peace in your head, good goodnight
You're far from me now but you'd be here
In the blink of an eye if I spoke your name
The morning will come for you and I
Life will go on, we'll keep at least for now till then
Peace in your heart, peace in your soul
Peace in your head, good goodnight
Peace in your head, good goodnight
You talk in your sleep
You talk in your sleep
I love you I do, you know that I do
The world is awake but you don't hear
A sound that it makes, asleep in dreams so deep
Peace in your heart, peace in your soul
Peace in your head, good goodnight
You're far from me now but you'd be here
In the blink of an eye if I spoke your name
The morning will come for you and I
Life will go on, we'll keep at least for now till then
Peace in your heart, peace in your soul
Peace in your head, good goodnight
Peace in your head, good goodnight
You talk in your sleep
You talk in your sleep
Mr. Universe lyrics - aqualung
Lead me or follow
Feed me or swallow
If this ain't the real thing I don't want the real thing
Ignore me, I sit here, I know where I fit here
You don't give a shit dear but really I do
Oh take me with you, I'd crawl through coal to kiss you
Just give me that sign and then I'll be
I used to be so tired a bit like I had expired
But woman you saved me, you came and enslaved me
Now I know exactly what to do, I know exactly where to go
This is just how I dreamt it might turn out to be
Come on disrespect me cause I know that you'll protect me
Just give me that sign and then I'll be here, yeah
Baby when I'm with you nothing seems to matter
Baby when I'm with you nothing seems to matter
Nothing seems to matter
Stars spinning round me, how will they ever find me
Everything seems so long ago
There's no need to worry cause we don't need anybody
Just give me that sign and then I'll be here, yeah
Baby when I'm with you nothing seems to matter [x5]
Nothing seems to matter
Feed me or swallow
If this ain't the real thing I don't want the real thing
Ignore me, I sit here, I know where I fit here
You don't give a shit dear but really I do
Oh take me with you, I'd crawl through coal to kiss you
Just give me that sign and then I'll be
I used to be so tired a bit like I had expired
But woman you saved me, you came and enslaved me
Now I know exactly what to do, I know exactly where to go
This is just how I dreamt it might turn out to be
Come on disrespect me cause I know that you'll protect me
Just give me that sign and then I'll be here, yeah
Baby when I'm with you nothing seems to matter
Baby when I'm with you nothing seems to matter
Nothing seems to matter
Stars spinning round me, how will they ever find me
Everything seems so long ago
There's no need to worry cause we don't need anybody
Just give me that sign and then I'll be here, yeah
Baby when I'm with you nothing seems to matter [x5]
Nothing seems to matter
On My Knees lyrics - aqualung
All I want is to go back to the beginning
And try to make it new
But it is so hard to find a way to be forgiven
Find the right way back to you
Babe, no don't leave me like this
I must have been crazy girl, to do what I did
Don't you hear me calling, I'm on my knees
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, please hear me calling now
In my heart you'll find a piece of me is missing
And there's nothing I can do
And look in my eyes you'll see I'm barely even living
That's what's living without you
I've got to tell you baby
I, I've got so much to say
It cuts me to pieces how you turn me away
Don't you hear me calling, I'm on my knees
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, please ohhh
Babe, we've got so much to say
It cuts me to pieces how you push me away
Don't you hear me calling, I'm on my knees
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, please
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, hear me calling now
Oh baby don't leave me now
I'm calling now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling now I'm on my knees
Don't you hear me now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling now I'm on my knees
Don't you hear me now I'm on my knees
Keep me calling now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling, hear me calling now
And try to make it new
But it is so hard to find a way to be forgiven
Find the right way back to you
Babe, no don't leave me like this
I must have been crazy girl, to do what I did
Don't you hear me calling, I'm on my knees
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, please hear me calling now
In my heart you'll find a piece of me is missing
And there's nothing I can do
And look in my eyes you'll see I'm barely even living
That's what's living without you
I've got to tell you baby
I, I've got so much to say
It cuts me to pieces how you turn me away
Don't you hear me calling, I'm on my knees
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, please ohhh
Babe, we've got so much to say
It cuts me to pieces how you push me away
Don't you hear me calling, I'm on my knees
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, please
Don't you feel me falling at your feet
All alone in the darkness holding my heart
Singing please, hear me calling now
Oh baby don't leave me now
I'm calling now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling now I'm on my knees
Don't you hear me now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling now I'm on my knees
Don't you hear me now I'm on my knees
Keep me calling now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling now I'm on my knees
Hear me calling, hear me calling now
When I Finally Get My Own Place lyrics - aqualung
When I finally get my own place
The walls will be white
When I finally get my own place
I will stay up every night and it will be quiet
When I finally get my own place
I'll sit on the stairs
When I finally get my own place
It will have windows that will weep
A garden I will weed, and fish I won't feed
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You just knock on my door
When I
When I
When I finally get my own place
I'll fly into a rage and lock myself out
And after hours of whispering through the keyhole
I will let myself back into your arms
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You don't need to be sure
You just knock on my door
Will you love me?
And you'll hold me
And you'll open up to let me in
But I will leave you in the end, I will leave you in the end
When I finally get my own place
However low I go, I won't say a word
Let the floor come up to meet me
Walls collapse to keep me
It's the only way
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You just knock on my door
You don't need to be sure
When I
When I
The walls will be white
When I finally get my own place
I will stay up every night and it will be quiet
When I finally get my own place
I'll sit on the stairs
When I finally get my own place
It will have windows that will weep
A garden I will weed, and fish I won't feed
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You just knock on my door
When I
When I
When I finally get my own place
I'll fly into a rage and lock myself out
And after hours of whispering through the keyhole
I will let myself back into your arms
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You don't need to be sure
You just knock on my door
Will you love me?
And you'll hold me
And you'll open up to let me in
But I will leave you in the end, I will leave you in the end
When I finally get my own place
However low I go, I won't say a word
Let the floor come up to meet me
Walls collapse to keep me
It's the only way
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You don't need to be lonely, you don't need to be lost
You don't need to know what you're living for
You just knock on my door
You don't need to be sure

Nothing Else Matters lyrics - aqualung
If the chute doesn't open
If this plan doesn't work
Going down, down, down, down, down
Kinda great to know as I take that step
This is my one last chance
And everything shatters
Everything's falling apart
I'm hanging in tatters
Barely a beat in my heart
And nothing else matters
No
If the man is the sum
Of all that he's done
Then I'm nothing much today
And if it's true what they say
And you are what you eat
Then I'm nothing much today
And everything shatters
Everything's falling apart
I'm hanging in tatters
Barely a beat in my heart
And nothing else matters
No
Nothing else matters
Nothing else
Nothing else matters
No
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
If this plan doesn't work
Going down, down, down, down, down
Kinda great to know as I take that step
This is my one last chance
And everything shatters
Everything's falling apart
I'm hanging in tatters
Barely a beat in my heart
And nothing else matters
No
If the man is the sum
Of all that he's done
Then I'm nothing much today
And if it's true what they say
And you are what you eat
Then I'm nothing much today
And everything shatters
Everything's falling apart
I'm hanging in tatters
Barely a beat in my heart
And nothing else matters
No
Nothing else matters
Nothing else
Nothing else matters
No
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Arrivals lyrics - aqualung
It has started, can't be stopped
Call the ferryman to cast me off
Send me, send me over the ocean
I'll find you
Not the radio, not today
There is nothing left
You can say
Just carry, carry me over the ocean to find you
Close your eyes baby
Close your eyes sunshine
Wait for one more sunrise
Then I'm home, I'm home
Feel the rumbling through the chair
Feel the future hanging in the air
Fly me, fly me over the ocean
I'll see you
And we're hurrying
And we wait, now we're tumbling
To the gate
Send me clearly over the ocean
To find you
Close your eyes
Close your eyes baby
Close your eyes sunshine
Just this one last sunrise
And I'm home, I'm home
Call the ferryman to cast me off
Send me, send me over the ocean
I'll find you
Not the radio, not today
There is nothing left
You can say
Just carry, carry me over the ocean to find you
Close your eyes baby
Close your eyes sunshine
Wait for one more sunrise
Then I'm home, I'm home
Feel the rumbling through the chair
Feel the future hanging in the air
Fly me, fly me over the ocean
I'll see you
And we're hurrying
And we wait, now we're tumbling
To the gate
Send me clearly over the ocean
To find you
Close your eyes
Close your eyes baby
Close your eyes sunshine
Just this one last sunrise
And I'm home, I'm home
Everything Changed lyrics - aqualung
Magic drifted through the air touching everybody there
You came into my life so small altering everything
Changed
(one plus one)
I looked into my crystal ball
(two then three)
The future wasn't clear at all
(three then four)
And yesterday was hard enough
(distant dream)
At the top of this precipice
Magic settled on the floor and there she lived forever more
Turning minutes into hours and days, stumbling, tumbling
Nothing can be the same as it was, I know, I know
Nothing can be the same as it was, I know, I know
You came into my life so small altering everything
Changed
You came into my life so small altering everything
Changed
(one plus one)
I looked into my crystal ball
(two then three)
The future wasn't clear at all
(three then four)
And yesterday was hard enough
(distant dream)
At the top of this precipice
Magic settled on the floor and there she lived forever more
Turning minutes into hours and days, stumbling, tumbling
Nothing can be the same as it was, I know, I know
Nothing can be the same as it was, I know, I know
You came into my life so small altering everything
Changed

Cinderella lyrics - aqualung
I'm on a roll
Everything I touch turns to shh..
It's taking it's toll
Can anybody get me off it?
Stuck on a roll
And it's wearing thin
I remember the night
No wet eyes, no crossroads
No mention of fate
Just a poor decision
I shouldn't have gone
Even though my head would bust
I shoudn't have gone
[Chorus]
Be careful what you hope and you pray for
You know you only get what you pay for
And I can hear the ticking of timebombs
For poor Cinderella
I'm on a roll
Everything I touch turns to gold
It's taking its toll
Can anybody get me off it?
I shouldn't have gone
Even though my head was busting
I shouldn't have gone
[Chorus]
Be careful what you hope and you pray for
You know you only get what you pay for
And I can hear the ticking of timebombs
The clock strikes
It's midnight
For poor Cinderella
Everything I touch turns to shh..
It's taking it's toll
Can anybody get me off it?
Stuck on a roll
And it's wearing thin
I remember the night
No wet eyes, no crossroads
No mention of fate
Just a poor decision
I shouldn't have gone
Even though my head would bust
I shoudn't have gone
[Chorus]
Be careful what you hope and you pray for
You know you only get what you pay for
And I can hear the ticking of timebombs
For poor Cinderella
I'm on a roll
Everything I touch turns to gold
It's taking its toll
Can anybody get me off it?
I shouldn't have gone
Even though my head was busting
I shouldn't have gone
[Chorus]
Be careful what you hope and you pray for
You know you only get what you pay for
And I can hear the ticking of timebombs
The clock strikes
It's midnight
For poor Cinderella
Pressure Suit lyrics - aqualung
Well two spinning spheres,
Two spinning spheres in a bed of stars
Silence is super
Staring into space, I wonder where you are
You're all that I've ever needed
I know that you won't feel it
Drift out into darkness
Lost out on horizon
It's alright
It's alright
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your pressure suit
It's alright
It's alright
Violently clear the upper atmosphere
Raging out your heart
Somewhere far beneath
Your pointed tongue and teeth
Is where you really are
Don't want to be forgiven
But drag you down from where you are
Drift out in the darkness
Lost out on horizon
It's alright
It's alright
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your parachute
It's alright
It's alright
Oooohhhh oh
Mmmm, ohhhh oh
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your pressure suit
It's alright, It's alright
I will not let you go...ohh
Two spinning spheres, they spin together
I'm gon' spin alone
I don't know how I can do this
I don't know how to get through
It's alright, It's alright
I can't stop loving you [10x]
It's alright, It's alright
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your pressure suit
It's alright, It's alright
I'll be your four leaf clover
I'll be your pressure suit
I'll be your angel wings
I'll be your parachute
I'll be your running reason
I'll be your only reason
Ohhhh, ohhhhhh
I can't stop loving you [4x]
It's alright, It's alright
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your pressure suit
Two spinning spheres in a bed of stars
Silence is super
Staring into space, I wonder where you are
You're all that I've ever needed
I know that you won't feel it
Drift out into darkness
Lost out on horizon
It's alright
It's alright
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your pressure suit
It's alright
It's alright
Violently clear the upper atmosphere
Raging out your heart
Somewhere far beneath
Your pointed tongue and teeth
Is where you really are
Don't want to be forgiven
But drag you down from where you are
Drift out in the darkness
Lost out on horizon
It's alright
It's alright
I'll be your respirator
I'll be your parachute
It's alright
It's alright
Oooohhhh oh
Mmmm, ohhhh oh
I'll be your respirator
