Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

I'm coming home to you
I'm alive, I'm a mess
I can't wait to get home to you
To get warm and undressed
There've been changes beyond my dreams
Everybody wants me to sing
There've been changes beyond my grasp
Things I'm sinking in

So keep me in your bed all day
Nothing heals me like you do

And when somebody knows you well
Well, there's no comfort like that
And when somebody needs you
Well, there's no drug like that

And when I'm home, curled in your arms
And I'm safe again
I'll close my eyes and sleep
To the sound of London rain

Nothing falls like London rain
Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing falls like London rain
Nothing heals me like you do

Big rind around the moon
Gonna rain hard soon

I know you're gonna leave
It's like a storm inside

You're the blood of me
You're the truth that hurts
You're the memory
You're the drug that works

Why do people change
When hearts still beat the same ?

I don't believe you when you tell me
I don't believe you when you hold me
I don't believe you. You're my medicine
I don't believe you when you fuck me

Big ring around the moon
Gonna rain hard soon

Wanna cry for you
Would it do any good ?
If I rained for you
It would just be water
And the night's with you
And the storm's in your hand
And you're down and you're down
And I can't lift you

I'm powerless to change your world
I'm powerless to stop the hurt

I'll give you my heart, give you my shoulder
Give you my heart, give you my shoulder

Wanna run for you
Would it do any good ?
If I flew for you
You would still be standing
And it's hard watching
'Cause I'm part of you
And it's hard not to
Not to know what I can do

I'm powerless to change your world
I'm powerless to stop the hurt
I'm trying hard to be your tower of strength
I'm trying hard to bring you back to joy

When the night just cuts you through
And the dream is lost to you
When you're worried and confused
I will give you my heart, give you my shoulder

Now's the time when this will turn to fruit
All the poppies gonna push up through
And I can see the ground below
The places that I know, disappearing
And I can see the winter fade
I don't feel so afraid it's clearing

What a feeling, what a feeling
What a feeling

Life is only half way in our hands
Years have passed while I was making plans
And I could never find the words
I always felt absurd, and on the outside
But now I know I shouldn't care
There's a song already there
Waiting inside

And I can feel the clock unwind
The parts of me I tied are running
And all the birds are in my head
The laughter that was dead
Is coming

What a feeling, what a feeling
The laughter that was dead is coming

Move me
Don't try
Let the music reach me tonight
Push me into something new
I've been riding all day on a bus
Just to listen to you

I love, I love, I love the look
In your trespassed eyes
I love, I love, I love the way
You can make me cry

Sink me into stirred-up sea
Something I can drown in
Only you can do this to me

Fill me up
And drop me down
Now I'm alive in the valley or sound
In the valley of sound
The valley of sound

I've got a memory a thousand years old
And I know secrets I've never been told
And I've got jewels I haven't found
And they'll return me to the ground

I'm the girl, I'm the girl, I'm the girl
You know me
I'm the girl, I'm the girl, I'm the girl
You know me

And I'm a siren; I'll wreck you on my shores
And I'm Godiva; I'll call you back for more
And I'm Medusa; and I'm your favourite doll
And I'm a Georgia O'Keefe
Hanging on your wall

I'm Joan of Arc, I'm the girl next door
I'm the mother and the daughter
Of the mother and the daughter before

And I remember being born just
Sound and light and sound and light
And I remember the first time,
Skin on skin in the arms of the night
Well how many times have we looked
Up into the starry skies, and how many times
Have we felt the passion rise
Every ruby-lipped girl baby, old lady, squaw junkie
Girl after girl after girl, every muse, whore, good witch,
Princess, back arching, year after year after year

I'm Joan of Arc, I'm the girl next door
I'm the mother and the daughter
Of the mother and the daughter before

Kiss your lashes, kiss you low
I'm driven to you like the driven snow
There's a place for us to lie
For every lover there's a piece of sky

To every life there's a light that shines
To every heart a beat that's true
Baby, you're my yellow summer
You're my Winterblue

You know that this was meant to be
Long ago, a hundred years from now
Tossing on an open sea
Love so good it's easy to go down

Love like a jungle fever
I'll never never never leave
Through every vein and every fibre
I'll never never never leave

To every life there's a light that shines
To every heart a beat that's true
Baby, you're my yellow summer
You're my Winterblue

Your hands were covered in paint
The pillow smothered my cry
You were half charmer half snake
I lived in dreamtime

But I'm alive, I survived you
And the bitter taste, the years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive

Some nights I'd sleep in the car
Just to escape you
You drove devotion too far
No-one could save you

I still have visions of you
I still have nights to get through
And when the trust isn't true
I have these visions of you

But I'm alive, I survived you
And the bitter taste, the years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
There's nothing more to say
Ride on and fade away
There's nothing more to say

Lately I've been sinking down
Thinking I'm the only one
Drifting in and out of blue
But destiny's a state of mind
And today I'm doing fine
Just rolling throughout the afternoon with you

And it's a widescreen world around me
And I'm lying on the backseat of my mind
And it's a widescreen, got you beside me
We're just riding on the backseat feeling fine

I will be your misfit queen
I'll take you where the grass is green
Past the littered sidewalk to the sun
I hear the traffic move outside
Yeah, but if I close my eyes
I can make it sound like waves rolling on

And it's a widescreen world around me
And I'm lying on the backseat of my mind
And it's a widescreen, got you beside me
We're just riding on the backseat feeling fine

And if we lie still, can you feel the room
Can you feel the city, can you feel it move ?
Can you tell your body, your body from mine ?
Can you la la la lie

Wishful thinking I might be yours
Drifting on every step
I'm always drawn to the darkest horse
Sweet sweet nothing's said

And every dream is just a dream, after all

And everything stands so still when you dance
Everything spins so fast
And the night's in a paper cup
When you want it to last

Wishful thinking you might be mine
Every shiver sends
One breath under the bridge of sighs
Bending where the river bends

And every dream is just a dream, after all

And everything stands so still when you dance
Everything spins so fast
And the night's in a paper cup
When you want it to last

I lie in a field, in the trailer-park of my dreams
Saving up for someday
But what does someday mean ?
And I'm young but I let it slip by
I'm co-dependant and I'm lost inside
And you, you look like freedom
You look like the avalanche I need
The avalanche I need

And there's a road, leads away from here
And every day I stand in place and watch it disappear
And there's a bird, circles in my mind
Security's the whore in me that never lets me fly
And you, you look like freedom
You look like change
You look like the avalanche I need
The avalanche I need

With your sunburned soul
And your hunger for the road
I'm snow-blind and crying after
Like nothing matters
When you go down take me
When you go down, yeah, make me
I got a hunger you could feed

And I know it's a fine line divides
The place I'm looking for and what's inside
And I know it's a long, long way
Throughout the outskirts of everyday
And you, you look like freedom
You look like change
You look like the avalanche I need
The avalanche I need
Avalanche

You're the one I think about time after time
You're the one who comes to me, visions in the night
I want to complicate your feelings
I want to heat you up inside
Yeah, I wanna make you mine

I'll be your sun coming up
I'll be your dog days
I'll be your new morning
Kiss you baby
I'll be the bluebird singing
I'll keep you warm
I'll take you deep in

Gonna make my bed beside you
In the bluebells of your soul
Gonna slip into your river, linger in your shoals
And when the stars are bright like fireflies
And the night is black as coal
I'm gonna make you mine

I'll be your sun coming up
I'll be your dog days
I'll be your new morning
Kiss you baby
I'll be the bluebird singing
I'll keep you warm
I'll take you deep in

On another side of time
Before the sea runs dry
On another side of time
Where the love runs high
I'm gonna make you mine
Make you mine, make you mine

I've got a ruby red desire
Like a virus like my last hope
I've got a ruby red desire
I've got to hear the red bird sing
I've got to rip this cord
And rinse this lazy blood
Clear a path and walk away

I've been waiting for the sky to fall
I've been thinking I could lose it all
I've been waiting for the safety net
Tell myself that I'm not ready yet

And every memory's a dream
And every uncertainty reminds me why
I saw a kid outside playing by a moonogate
Making paper things that fly

I've been waiting for the sky to fall
I've been thinking I could lose it all
I've been waiting for the safety net
Tell myself that I'm not ready yet

I want to live

Morning is almost here-let it wait
I just want to lie here awhile, tempting fate
I don't think I could breathe now with you gone
But it's not weakness, it's just something I've begun

Maybe there's a light that's always on
Maybe we're not only human
Maybe there's a light that's always on
And we're not only human

When you're sleeping you're ceramic
You're surrounded by little stars
Every shimmer is a searchlight
Every planet is ours
Change the street, change the decade
Still the longing's left inside
But why am I too small to carry you ?
Why does twilight make me cry ?

Maybe there's a light that's always on
Maybe we're not only human
Maybe there's a light that's always on
And we're not only human

When all the weight is gone
When all is said and done
We're not only human

Life is something set to music
I can hear it when I'm sad
There's a chord in every muscle
Every kiss you ever had
There's a power when you're near me
In our heads or in our bones
I know nothing but I'm guessing
When we die we're not alone
