If I could write poetry
05:20

All those times we spent together
All the love I had I gave to you
Sitting on a park bench in the autumn
Holding hands under a cloudless sky
Happiness is knowing you care for someone
And never having to give a reason why
For love is never having to say anything
My love is yours to keep till the day you die
If I could write poetry I would
I would write a thousand poems
To tell the world that I love you (x2)
Dreaming we would always be together
Chasing rainbows in a happy sky
Thinking we would always be together
But now I find there's no tears left to cry
If I could catch a falling star I'd give it to you
Even though it's never been done before
And now I'm on a park bench in the autumn
I watch the rainbow disappear from view
If I could write poetry I would
I would write a thousand poems
To tell the world that I love you (x2)
Thinking all the time we spent together
All the love I had I gave to you
Sitting on a park bench in the autumn
Holding hands under a cloudless sky
Dreaming we would always be together
Thinking we would always be together
Hoping we would always be together
But now the rainbow disappeared from view
If I could write poetry I would
I would write a thousand poems
To tell the world that I love you (x4)

Look back in anger

I said some things I shouldn't have said
Should have kept them to myself instead
I was wrong, I admit I was wrong
(I'm) very sorry when I look back at you
I was wrong, I made you cry
But isn't that what you want to hear?
I look back in anger, I look back at you
I look back in anger at you
I look back in anger, I look back at you
I look back in anger at you
I did some things you thought weren't good
Not quite the way you thought I should
I listened to your advice
Did what you said, never thought twice
(I'm) very sorry when I look back at you
I was wrong, I made you cry
But isn't that what you want to hear?
I look back in anger, I look back at you
I look back in anger at you
I look back in anger, I look back at you
I look back in anger at you
All the things you do (3)

14th floor

I'm looking down on London
But there's little I can see
Cos I'm living so high up
And it looks so small to me
And I'm feeling so frustrated
Cos the lifts are out once more
And when I get home from work tonight
I gotta climb 14 floors, I tell you mate...
14th floor, oh no, my face don't fit
14th floor, just a number on the council list
14th floor, oh no, there's nothing to do
14th floor, it's got a roof, it hasn't got a view
I've lived here for seven years now
But I don't know anyone
I think the bloke next door is a Jamaican
But he could be an Irishman
And life's no fun in a tower block
When you're locked behind your door
I think I must have had enough
Of living on the 14th floor, I tell you mate...
14th floor, oh no my face don't fit
14th floor, no no another number on the council list
14th floor, no no no there's nothing to do
14th floor, no no no it hasn't got a view
14th floor, no no no I've really got to go
14th floor, had enough of yesterday's show
14th floor, oh no my face don't fit
14th floor, just a number on the council list

Happy all the time

"Pa pa pa" said the clown as he fell down
And the audience laughed and cheered
But they never saw the tears
"Mummy mummy please look at me" said Rupert with glee
As Rupert climbed a very high tree
He's as happy as he could be
And I'm just looking for rainbows
In a star filled sky
And I'm just looking for answers and the reasons why
I remember somebody told me
That God loves me and you
But I don't know if they were honestly telling the truth
And I wish that I was happy all of the time in my mind
If I was happy all of the time in my mind
Happy all of the time
And I wish that I was happy all of the time in my mind
If I was happy all of the time in my mind
Happy all of the time
But I'm just looking for rainbows
In a star filled sky
And I'm just waiting for the sun to shine
I remember somebody told me
That God is yours and mine
But nobody ever told me that pigs could fly
And I wish that I was happy all of the time in my mind
If I was happy all of the time in my mind
Happy all of the time
And I wish that I was happy all of the time in my mind
If I was happy all of the time in my mind
Happy all of the time
This little piggy wants everything But this little piggy wants none This little piggy is a fat little piggy
See the little piggies run

Where the rainbow ends
04:07
|

I've searched for love and I've searched for truth
But I must admit I've almost given up trying
So many things I said in haste
And now I'm scared of my own emotions
There's nothing left for me to say
Even though I tried so hard to find you
Just when I thought I had your hand in mine
You told me you had doubts in your mind
I tried so hard to find you... I tried so hard to find you...
I called your name from the highest hill
I hear your voice even though you're not there
I've searched so hard to find the truth
I searched for love but I'm still crying
For a while there was no one else
But it's no use, there's no denying
Even though I try and pretend
This is where the rainbow ends (3)
I've searched for love and I've searched for truth
But like a fool I let them slip away
Now there's nothing left for me to do
Can't find the words that I should have said
But it's no use, I can't pretend
This is where the rainbow ends (4)
