Sold On You

Mel and me, the railway children Played the disused line Run through fields we'd kicked our shoes off Drunk in air like sweet red wine Together like suede and leather No more easy come easy go I remember the coalmine closing Her father's face was a sight Bringing up kids on a pittance wages Nothing's left by Saturday night Those days will scar forever No more easy come easy go Melanie won't run-run-runaway Melanie can't come she's got to stay Worth her weight in gold ooh baby I'm sold on sold on sold on you Think of all tomorrow's parties And giving it all away There's nothing left here but muck-stack-Charlies Let's make a run for it, what do you say? You've got to make it happen No more easy come easy go Melanie won't run-run-runaway Melanie can't come she's got to stay Worth her weight in gold ooh baby I'm sold on sold on sold on you You're one in a million You'll always come first All the zeroes follow you Melanie you've got to save yourself This time take them for granted No more easy come easy go Melanie won't run-run-runaway Melanie can't come she's got to stay Worth her weight in gold ooh baby I'm sold on sold on yeah sold on

So baby, you don't have the time Too busy, you can't see the crime In keeping yourself to yourself Well, girl You don't look that good anyway Persistence paid off in the end She insisted we'd only be friends That was then this is now one year later It's not right, no not quite All the lights are on but no-one's home tonight Girl with a summer tan Slips through my fingers like sand All I wanted to see was you Coming home to me Smiled so wide I'm tearing my face When she moved her stuff into my place But all I see now are notes on a table Yeah, I love you too But what good does that do? We gotta get together baby Me'n'you Girl with a summer tan Slips through my fingers like sand All I wanted to see was you Coming home to me I go crazy pacing the floor Learn my lines Then you walk through the door When I see you it fires something in me Your loving shows I wanna burn these clothes Take your right there where you're standing Lace and all Girl with a summer tan Slips through my fingers like sand All I wanted to see was you Coming home girl Girl with a summer tan Slips through my fingers like sand When all I wanted to see was you Coming home Coming Home Coming home to me

Don't make any false promises Stay awhile when I'm not alone I forget all the anger in me Kiss a tear when the hammer falls They're holding me here in never ending circles I can still remember summer madness I can taste the perfume on your cheek The heat is overcome by coldness Consoling words are insignificant Say you'll pray Justify the actions These are days of the mob rule, sharp tongue, curfew When the mind is in solitary confinement Makes the mood that breaks you There's a spirit seeking liberation Here's a fire with a hungry heart If I listen, maybe time will tell me The reasons why we're torn apart As the years go by Don't make any false promises As the years go by Say you'll pray Here the silence is too loud In a steel barred jail on the other side We invented the differences That weaved the web with which we lied Caught in the middle of a cold war zone I left my lover in a far off place She'll kiss a tear when the hammer's falling And wipe the darkness from my face As the years go by Don't make any false promises As the years go by Say you'll pray As the years go by Don't make any false promises As the years go by Say you'll pray, say you'll pray Just say you'll pray Just say you'll pray

With all the tears and rain In every pleasure and every pain And despair, delight, disdain I hurt you, didn't i? The summer was almost gone I won't forget the first time Swimming in pools of your innocence Leave your mark and the colourflow of you Hey don't you feel sensation? Hey don't you feel the yearn? Just lying there for the taking Don't give, make me earn all your love Promise me all your soul Give to me all your heart You'll never be on your own For all your life You know you made me shine Through orange lights and wet streets But that's outside our undercover You concerned me when you showed me The colourflow of you Hey don't you feel emotion? Hey don't you feel spellbound? Just lying there for the taking What you lost I found all your love Promise me all your soul Give to me all your heart You'll never be on your own For all your life Some people make it look so easy Some you think they'd never heard of compromise But we can speak oceans by motions We simplify all your love Promise me all your soul Give to me all your heart You'll never be on your own For all your life The colourflow of, colourflow of, colourflow of you
