Not gonna find him where you least expect
He's not in the ether last time I checked
He's not serving you in the supermarket queue
Cos all I wants not a table for one but two
The world is built for two, the world is built for two
Cos all I see is dads with kids
And old men with fishing rods catching squids
There's nothing to keep me in this town
So why don't you show up and make me stick around?
The world is built for two, the world is built for two

Hotel Motel

He stood with his arm around her, the way they once were
"I'll be away for the long weekend" He gave no reason
Drives to where the water meets the land to bury his head in the sand
"Somethings come up I've gotta go away" as she headed for the bay
Meet me at the hotel motel we'll get our ticket to hell
Baby when the church bells chimes it reminds you of your other life, the one you left behind
Two sleep between the sheets to the light of the late night TV
Soothe the soul with alcohol and pretend she does not know
She's so different but its all the same, a picture in which I'll be framed
Meet me at the hotel motel we'll get our ticket to hell
baby when the church bells chime, it reminds you of your other life

Meadow Song

There you were with such a sweet name
Leaning all your cares away
A quintet of fuddled souls
Is all that glitters really gold?
I can see that you're the one flying, and I wanna fly too
Meadow song
That you sing
I hear you calling
Open spaces they fill me in
And meadow
I hear you calling
Your big arms they wrap me in
I know I'll never want to leave
Pick me up we won't go far
Take the dark road in your car
The wind it gasps feel the temperature plummet
You shout "you don't always need to reach the summit"
I can see that you're the one flying, and I wanna fly too
Meadow song
That you sing
I hear you calling
Open spaces they fill me in
And meadow
I hear you calling
Your big arms they wrap me in
I know I'll never want to leave
Layers removed as we fell straight through
Our bodies shattering the icy blue
The minutes are up on this Saturday
The chemistry's here but it can't stay
I know you feel the same, as you drive away....
Meadow song
That you sing
I hear you calling
Open spaces they fill me in
And meadow
I hear you calling
Your big arms they wrap me in
I know I'll never want to leave

Up The Bluff

You see someone you recognise and you don't wanna meet eyes you runaway
There's girls with their cameras taking photos of the animals in the water
I climb the stairs to get a view in order to feel a little higher
Oh one day I will find someone to take up the bluff
We'll have fish n chips and watch the sunset, the wind will be behind us
I know a place, when I find you
I know a place, I wanna take you
Sea mist settles on the sand dunes
And I wonder if we'd find our way, under the light of a full moon
Oh I wanna find somebody I can take there soon
I don't want the cliffs to fall away, taking my last hope too
A landmark in the landscape sticks out to my right
It looks so far away but really it's close enough, if you got the time
At the mouth where the river meets the sea
At the heads where my head is free
Oh I wanna find someone to take up there....
Take it all in
In the Winter or the Summer or the Autumn or the Spring
Its such a beautiful place, I wanna take you there
its my favourite spot, down here
Its such a beautiful place...
if you got the time

Twenty Three Minutes
02:59
|
|||
|
Inspiration strikes on my morning drive
Clouds they disappear, the sun is up above the fields
Down Swan Bay Road, I close my eyes, I let go
Imagine I'm a plane, gliding over this terrain
Twenty three minutes is all I have, Twenty three minutes make me glad
Stuck behind a tractor, double lines make a disaster
But it's OK, cos I'm running on divine time
See you when I get there, see you when I get there, see you when I get there, I'll see you when I get there, see you when I get there, see you when I get there, I'll see you when I get there
