Dreamer 04:00
Dreamer We don’t talk too much, We don’t know if there is a reason. We can’t see to the end. We all need someone to lean on. Lean on me, I’ll lean on you. Count on me to see this through. Lean on me, I’ll lean on you. Count on me to tell you to, Dance a little longer and life will be easier x3. I’ve got to tell you something, it’s so good to see you. Living life on our own wasn’t easy. I’m an ocean of islands away from there. Can you say how you’re feeling right now? Believe me that I care. Believe I’m the dreamer, Believe you’re the dreamed about. We live at separate times of the day. Maybe we wanted to. Catch me now ‘cos I’m falling again. That’s all because of you. Because I’m the dreamer, Because you’re the dreamed about. We don’t understand. We can’t see through all this confusion. With a firmer hand, we could create such an illusion. Lean on me, I’ll lean on you. Count on me to see this through. Lean on me, I’ll lean on you. Count on me to tell you to, Dance a little longer and life will be easier I’ve got to tell you something, it’s so good to see you.

Analysation 03:32
ANALYSATION Semaphore signals from the offices, Analysation takes no prisoners Billboards bulge with your prosperity, Curfews keep you from your anarchy. Well I say this and then we all do nothing. Sensations come with new sunrises, This is the dawning of YOUR day. Believing everyone brings danger, Apathy will breed decay. Well I say this and then we all do nothing Energy surge in neutral stations. The way they turn your information round. On its head, but not in your mind. God knows what they'll do when they find out. Well I say this and then we all do nothing Smiling suit makes promises, promises. Then hides behind all his policies. Public stares with mouths wide open. We don’t know who the hell we’re voting in. Well I say this and then we all do nothing Television screens convert the pessimist, then real life perverts the optimist. Telephones tapped with utmost prejudice, For lunatics and suspected communists. Well I say this and then I do nothing.

17% Gm Gm7 They're going round and round and round again Cm D7 But I don't know if they'll last. Gm Gm7 These voices that I heard were only C7 D7 Thoughts about the past Gm Gm7 Cm D7 Everybody knew that you had one foot on my grave Gm Gm7 C7 D7 and 17 per cent of me it wanted to behave Gm D7 Gm D7 Like you were out there on the inside of my dreams. Gm Gm7 Cm D7...Gm Gm7 C7 D7 Gm Gm7 Cm D7...Gm D7 Gm D7 Gm Gm7 Cm D7 The sounds of the voices they were speaking Gm Gm7 C7 D7 Creeping from the room where you were sleeping Gm Gm7 Cm D7 The choices that I had were soon to deepen They were saying Gm D7 Gm D7 Somebody somewhere is weeping Gm D7 Gm D7 But do they know that you care? Gm D7 Gm D7 One day you're gonna stop believing Gm D7 Gm D7 There's nothing wrong with the air. Gm Gm7 Cm D7...Gm Gm7 C7 D7 Gm Gm7 Cm D7...Gm D7 Gm D7 G7 Cm Gm A7 D7...Gm Gm7 Cm D7 Gm D7 Gm D7 Gm Gm7 I hope somebody's out there Cm D7 Hope that they can bring you Gm D7 Gm D7 The hope that you will always want to sing.

SIGN OF THE CROSS There's a time bomb ticking, Inside of my head. If it's never been written about,It's rarely been said. Is there a world with a future; A world without end? Then I've got to understand,That you'll never try to send me. Don't send me down the river. Don't send me your pollution. Some of them sell you down the river. Some of them sell you their pollution. If you see a sign of recovery now, Then what I see is barely alive. If you see a sign of the times, I see a sign of the cross. If the good guys are doing it, You're saying it's wrong. If you want to make money, Then you've got to belong, To the gang of high rollers, Or the winners and the cheaters of fools. If you want to be up there, Got to never ask "why", Do you want to remain there? Then turn a blind eye, As you sell them down the river As you sell them your pollution. If you see a sign of recovery now, Then what I see is barely alive. If you see a sign of the times, I see a sign of the cross.

Prophet / Profit What am I bid for your salvation? How high’s the price upon your soul? What’s the E.T.A. of your Revelation? What’s your goal? Is there money to be made from your elation? Is the profit on a prophet solid gold? Are you living up to your own expectations? Can what is always unforgiven still be sold? So let me get this right, when you step into the light. Your confession is a blessing and the first stone. Cast it alone. You can tell me how to get through the eye of a needle and you say it’s Better to give than receive. It’s not a loan. Can you agree that if an An eye for eye will blind I and I. Then I and I and I exist alone. Don’t understand how you consume God’s creatures Then you have to teach us all Thou shalt not kill Did you get your fill? Will you bequeath all of the earth to the meek. Then turn the other cheek. Thou shalt not kill Did you get your fill?

Secret Garden Am Dm In the seceret garden; a vision of your dreams. E7 Gently flows the waterfall, Am The droplets drown your screams. Dm Shackled in a prison Am Beauty all around. E7 Am Seems to me a heavenly dreamland that you’ve found. Take away my spirit whilst we dive into this ocean. I can see we’ll not forget about tonight. I’ve been looking back upon The time when we had not forgotten How to be alive where is it now? Talk of our tomorrows, Talk of innocence and our sense of wonder. At the beauty of tonight. Fire burns so deep inside, Let’s lose ourselves and take a ride On impulse, heartfelt passionate believing.
