James

Spent my time looking into the sun

Never noticed how the years had run

Just,waiting for time to pass us by

So we danced on through those days

Lost in life's stormy haze

Still looking, for someone to show us the way

Oh James

Where did the time go

Oh James

How was I ever supposed to know

That you'd let me go

Slowly drifting to lives apart

Eyes staring off into the dark

We could, never get back to where we once were

So the bells of the moment tolled

As the forces of fate still rolled

In the end, two lives flailing out at sea

Oh James

Where did the time go

Oh James

How was ever I supposed to know

That you'd let me go

Let me go

It all feels like a lost dream now

Thoughts turned by darkened ploughs

We were, left behind in our own worlds

Should have woken up long ago

Grasped the nettle and never let go

Disregard, led us down these sunless roads

Oh James

Where did the time go

Oh James

How was I ever supposed to know

That you'd let me go

That you'd let me go

So very long ago


 

Overlord

You've your got gold back home now you come on like an overlord

It made you immortal

Turned you into some kind of monster

Took away the wide eyed boy

Left behind the smokescreen gangster yeah

The smokescreen gangster, yeah

Now you're out there playing the big man tonight

Out there preening yourself up, where everyone can see

You've made so much money that you think that you're above the law

You've your got gold back home now you come on like an overlord

You need more money

You want more money

You gotta make more

Money

You snaked your way up the greasy pole

Learned about the power of money

How it opened bad dream doors

Kept the victim's silence running

Their silence running

So you're out there looking for cheap thrills tonight

Out there playing the same game, where no-one else can see

You've made so much money that you think that you're above the law

You've your got gold back home now you come on like an overlord

You need more money

You want more money

You gotta make more

Money, more money, money

Money, more money, money

Money

Gotta make more

Money

You thought that it wasn't noticed

The played out act of the rich man overlord

But it's out there in the papers

The clown faced boy was just another fraud 

Just another fraud

And for those who formed a shield for you

Just to win their pot of gold, how do they sleep at night

at night

You've made so much money that you think that you're above the law

You've your got gold back home now you come on like an overlord

You've made so much money that you think that you're above the law

You've your got gold back home now you come on like an overlord

Money

Bad Guy 

He came into the room with that look on his face 

He came into the room like he owned the place 

And all the girls went oo la la 

And all the boys felt the heat from his star 

Heat from his star 

Leaning on the wall sipping on his champagne 

Freezing out the world with an air of disdain 

And all the boys went oo la la 

And all the girls felt the heat from his star 

Heat from his star 

Don't they know 

That he's a 

Bad, bad, bad guy 

With his sad, sad little lies 

And he'll take all your dreams from you 

Just to make himself feel good 

All the girls preen and try to catch his eye 

Their only bite tonight is a whispered goodbye 

And all the room went oo la la 

And all the room felt the heat from his star 

Heat from his star 

Don't they know 

That he's a 

Bad, bad, bad guy 

With his sad, sad little lies 

And he'll take all your dreams from you 

Just to make himself feel good 

Through the looking glass 

There are brave new worlds 

Through the looking glass 

The snakes lie hidden and curled 

Yeah, the snakes lie hidden and curled 

He shrugs his thoughts away and fades out through the door 

A victimless hunt is such a terrible bore 

And all the world went oo la la 

And all the world felt the heat from his star 

Heat from his star 

Don't they know 

That he's a 

Bad, bad, bad guy 

With his sad, sad little lies 

And he'll take all your dreams from you 

Just to make himself feel good 

He's a 

Bad, bad, bad guy 

With his sad, sad little lies 

And he'll take all your dreams from you 

Just to make himself feel good 

Feel good

Memoriam

Close my eyes and I see your face now

Close my eyes and I see nothing else

You left this world in such a state now

You left this world, with no look back

You left this world without a word

 

And it's too late now

Much too late now

Too late

To show that I

Cared

Still cared

I cared

 

The bells are tolling out for you now

The bells are singing out to me

I've lost myself in my own mind now

A darkened shade, of what,still could be

A darkened shade is all I see

 

And it's too late now

Much too late now

Too late

To show that I

Cared

Still cared

I cared

 

Cased in wood she rides out now

Cased in wood and broken dreams

A sign of how things used to be now

A caught breath, on a, stone cold night

A caught breath away from light

 

And it's too late now

Much too late now

Too late

To show that I

Cared

Still cared

I cared

Still cared

I cared

Cared
