We go out to every party
Buy some beers some food
Bring our favourite music LPs to play
To get us in the mood
When you’re young it’s so easy
Energy for life to burn
Keeps us talking all night long
How we’re gonna change the world

All we really need
Is to make a connection
Senses working from me to you
Every move a new dance-sation

Once the light is sliding in
We get up all is quiet
Get some breakfast orange juice
Hey last night was such a riot
Tonight we take it easy
You and me just staying in
Watch a movie on the TV
Until we all meet up again

It’s a river
Flowing in your mind
It’s a river
Running blind
Never stops
Hits the rocks
And breaks away
It rushes on
No right or wrong
Every day

At the breakdown
At the standoff
In the hollow
Of your heart
When the mist falls
And the frost crawls
Across

I won’t be there
I won’t be there
When it all comes tumbling down

Left me for dead in the street
Steal the shoes from my feet
Took my watch and wallet too
Kicked me again did it feel good for you

I was dancing enjoying time with my girl
Drinking and laughing with our friends
Saw you watching with a hate in your eyes
Where you from you don’t belong here son
I was born here in this town
Got as much right as you to hang around
Don’t want any hassle let me shake your hand
But you’re too angry brother just don’t know how
When the club closes
Go get some food
Brief encounters
Always tastes so good
You and your crew
Waiting at the Noggin hill
All ready to punch and kill
I’m just the same as you
You live on my Mothers street
You’re brain cells can’t work it out
And you’ve got too left feet
You only know aggression
Have you ever known love
Maybe someday you’ll learn
Get some of the good good stuff
Calm you down my friend
Teach you how to live
Instead of hitting out
Maybe one day you might just give
A little happiness
Let the fear go
Your no less a man
If your heart can grow
So shake my hand now
Walk the other way
Save your fighting spirit
For football on Sunday

I needed a break
Some time on my own
Sort out my head
Check the rearview mirror and the road
I’ve been driving all night
Got nowhere to go
Don’t want to remember
The places I know
Everything is changing
The lights are a blur
If I fear I’m losing you
I know I need you more

I’ve got the radio on
Trying to stay awake
I’m gonna make it back to you
Forgive me my mistakes

There’s a bridge coming up ahead
Across the Tallahassee
Sometimes get so desperate
I want her to swallow me
Put the radio back on
Then I hit the brakes
Still want to make it back to you
Forgive me my mistakes
I can turn around
Point the car in love’s direction
If I make it home to you
It’s the only good thing left to do

My 21st
You kissed me first
Made my heart go boom
We shared the floor
I kept you warm
We reeled around the room
Daylight woke me
From my dream
You took a taxi home
Girl I was afraid
To get serious
So sad to stay alone

I’m always trying to say no
Don’t wanna take a chance on you
You’re alright you’re OK
Why can’t I take a chance on you

The end of your road
Street light was good
Smoke and talk all night
And we could fall in love
You were so so easy
A softness in your eyes
I was riding high
My head was in the skies

I was having the time of my life
Didn’t believe you wanted me
We’d meet up casually
Pick up where we left off easily
I’m always trying to say no
Don’t wanna take a chance on you
You’re alright you’re OK
Why can’t I take a chance on you
