Along The Shore

i think it’s time to go
where exactly, i don’t know
thumb a ride down the countryside
where tourists never go
we can make new plans
build with worn out hands
sail across the pond to another land
i know that we can find it
a place along the shore for us to stay
forget about yesterday
the perfect life ain’t far away
we can carve a key
to a home for you and me
the air is clean, or so it seems
and the streets are full of green
we can find the time
for neighbours walking by
days spent feeling younger and more alive
i know that we can find it
a place along the shore for us to stay
forget about yesterday
the perfect life ain’t far away

The Painting On The Wall

love
i love that painting on the wall
the painting on the wall that no one sees
she
she paints a calm and cosy winter
her smile waiting home just for me
all the colours on a canvas
that wash into the sea
stirring up inside
the kind of man i long to be
all our cherished memories
passed down for free
oh lord, she’s the one for me
i
i feel like the wolf dressed up in sheepskin
fighting for a place in this strange world
she
she can understand the reasons
for why I choose to do the things I do
all the colours on a canvas
that wash into the sea
stirring up inside
the kind of man I long to be
bygones be bygones
there are no guarantees
oh lord, she’s the one for me
all the colours on a canvas
that wash into the sea
stirring up inside
the kind of man I long to be
all our cherished memories
passed down for free
oh lord, she’s the one for me
love
i love that painting on the wall
the painting on the wall that hangs for me

Here With Me

welcome back my dear
let me fix you a drink
its been a wild one
and i’ve barely slept all week
hang me up in a fresh blue sky
with a new set of eyes to see you with
rest me down by the deep blue sea
and let the waves crash over me
heaven or hell is creeping near
but all I hope is that you are here
here with me
it’s okay you say
we all need to learn how to lose
but I know you’ll wait for me
and keep me close to you
hang me up by the family farm
with a new set of arms to hold you with
rest me down by that old gum tree
and let the leaves wash over me
heaven or hell is creeping near
but all I hope is that you are here
here with me
heaven or hell is creeping near
but all I hope is that you are here
here with me

I Can't Fly

no i can’t fly
but my two wings keep on moving
the sun is busy living
just outside
no i can’t fly
but my heart will keep on beating
beating for the love
i’m yet to find
i close my eyes and see the skyline
from when I conquered heartbreak hill
rise and shine
boy there’s a mountain yet to climb
no I can’t fly
take it one day at a time
to land back in those loving arms
back home
