She touches grief with her kiss,
She saves me so, she saves me so,
She brushes true love with thistle,
Her gardens grows, her garden grows.
Oh, she grips my heart anytime she smiles, anytime she cries,
She grips…she grips my heart.
She wrings it out in her hands,
She makes me moan, she makes me moan,
She mingles madness with goodness when we’re alone,
When we’re alone.
Oh, she grips my heart anytime she smiles, anytime she cries,
Oh, she grips my heart anytime she laughs, anytime she sighs.
She grips my heart,
She grips…she grips my heart,
She grips my heart.
She strangles it, she strangles it,
She strangles it, she strangles it,
She strangles it, she strangles it,
She strangles it.
She strangles joy with her eyes,
She kills me so, she kills me so,
She tangles misery with flowers,
Her garden grows, her garden grows.
Oh, she grips my heart anytime she smiles, anytime she cries,
She grips…she grips my heart anytime she laughs, anytime she sighs,
Oh, she grips my heart anytime she smiles, anytime she cries,
She grips…she grips my heart anytime she laughs, anytime she sighs,
Oh, she grips my heart,
She grips my heart,
Oh, she grips my heart,
She grips my heart.

Amazing (remaster)

Amazing how slugs know more about the weather,
Lovers drown as slow, so stay with me forever,
And I never will suspect the sky.
Creatures climb the window pane to avoid the coming rain,
Is it so hard to be sane, when love is crazy?
Go on, drag me through the dirt,
Come on, kiss me where it hurts,
Love for better, love for worse, is so amazing.
Amazing how the crawl up without confusion,
Lovers fear the fall: Heaven’s retribution,
But I only know the demons revel in our madness.
Creatures climb the window pane to avoid the coming rain,
Is it so hard to be sane, when love is crazy?
Go on, drag me through the dirt,
Come on, kiss me where it hurts,
Love for better, love for worse – it’s amazing.
Amazing how slugs know more about the weather,
Lovers drown as slow; but stay with me forever, ‘cause I don’t see any clouds tonight,
And I never will suspect the sky of cruel intentions.
Creatures climb the window pane to avoid the coming rain,
Is it so hard to be sane, when love is crazy?
When I drag you through the dirt, let me kiss you where it hurts,
Love for better, love for worse, is so amazing.
It’s amazing, it’s amazing.

You know I love you, I think you’re so good,
I like the people in my neighbourhood,
My mother is an engineer, my daddy is a healer,
And everybody gathered here: wheelers, dealers.
Lovers, depravers,
Freers, enslavers,
Clowns, wicked sayers,
Kissers and betrayers.
Bones and ladder somehow rhyming,
Man of sorrows hanging, Iscariot swinging – a curious polarity,
Finders, weepers,
Why have you forsaken me?
Losers, keepers.
Lovers, depravers,
Freers, enslavers,
Clowns, wicked sayers,
Kissers and betrayers,
Saviours, deniers,
Prophets, impliers,
Well wishers, liars,
Killers, death deifiers,
Killers, death deifiers.
I light a candle well before dark,
They tell me jesters hide out in the park,
I never was a cautious man,
My brother is a broker,
Everybody in the band: jokers, fire-stokers.
Lovers, depravers,
Freers, enslavers,
Clowns, wicked sayers,
Kissers and betrayers,
Saviours, deniers,
Prophets, impliers,
Well wishers, liars,
Killers, death deifiers,
Killers, death deifiers.

Weather Girl (remaster)

Because the flower froze when the dead criminal rose,
Nobody recognises every sky, but any dead dog knows…
Never trust a weather girl,
She grins when she warns you,
Never trust a weather girl.
Everything grey was silver,
Everyone wise was blind,
Heaven itself was falling into her eyes.
Because the wolf was howling,
Because the moon was on the rise,
Because the sun was fading,
Because the storm was in her eyes.
She’s a wicked cloud; the devil prays for her,
She tastes like cinnamon rain, and she reeks of myrrh.
Never kiss a weather girl,
She grins when she warns you,
Never kiss a weather girl.
Everything grey was silver,
Everyone wise was blind,
Heaven itself was falling into her eyes.
Because the wolf was howling,
Because the moon was on the rise,
Because the sun was fading,
Because the storm was in her eyes,
Because the wolf was howling,
Because the moon was on the rise,
Because the sun was fading,
Because the storm was in her eyes.
Never trust a weather girl,
She laughs when she kills you,
Never kiss a weather girl.
Everything grey was silver,
Everyone wise was blind,
Heaven itself was falling into her eyes.
Because the wolf was howling,
Because the moon was on the rise,
Because the sun was fading,
Because the storm was in her eyes,
Because the wolf was howling,
Because the moon was on the rise,
Because the sun was vanishing,
Because the fire was in her eyes,
Because the fire was in her eyes,
Because the fire was in her eyes,
Because the fire was in her eyes,
Because the fire was in her eyes, in her eyes.

Yellow Skies (remaster)

Before you kill me, honey, recognize,
I’m your one-way rumbling ride through yellow skies,
I’m your sunshine trucking man,
I’m doing everything I can to realise the yellow skies.
(I wanna go with you to Heaven,
I wanna drink you like a flower drinks rain,
I wanna float you like a feather)
Were you crying in the kitchen?
Did you paint the four walls blue?
Was it something that I said, something that I did to you?
Sometimes love is really sad,
You don’t have to feel so bad all day; we can ride away.
Let’s go outside, open up our eyes, and exchange this cloudy room for a yellow sky,
I’m your sunshine trucking man,
I’m doing everything I can to realize the yellow skies.
Saucers in the kitchen, flying like UFOs,
It’s a mystical experience; mama never told me so,
Sometimes love can twist your head, but you don’t have to wish me dead today,
Close your eyes and pray.
Before you kill me, angel, recognize,
I’m your one-way rumbling ride through yellow skies,
I’m your sunshine trucking man,
I’m doing everything I can to realize, to realize,
Open up our eyes to the yellow, to the yellow.

Screaming at the newsman, telling him to take it back,
I’ll sue him if he won’t retract,
Crying to the hangman, begging him to render slack,
If I could, I would go back.
Will you extend me…
Will you extend me grace, just a little grace?
Will you extend me…
Will you extend me grace, just a little grace?.
Were you talking to the shrubbery?
Did you cut the roses down?
Someone ought to till that ground,
You though I had a pure heart,
Well, I thought you were and angel, girl,
Mercy is the silver pearl.
Will you extend me…
Will you extend me grace, just a little grace?
Will you extend me…
Will you extend me grace, just a little grace?
My mother deems me ever-dear,
I’m less a liar than sincere.
When you cut me in the alley-way you don’t have to turn that knife,
I’ll suffer in the afterlife,
Praying to the Father: “Sorry, did I grieve the Ghost?”
You’re the one I love the most.
Will you extend me…
Will you extend me grace, just a little grace?
You gotta give me …
You gotta give me grace, just a little grace?
Will you extend me…
Will you extend me grace, just a little grace?
My mother deems me ever-dear.

Tell me how the sky is falling
Into what was once the sea
How the ground is cracking up
To swallow you, to swallow me
Let the devils of a lost world
Raise their planet from the dead
Angel cover me with kisses
And I won't hide my head
No, I won't hide my head
No, no, no
I won't mind
Should the sun refuse to shine
No, no, no
I won't crawl
Let the sky fall
See the preacher board the peace train
With a hatchet in his hand
Isn't that one fraudulent
Ticket that you're holding, man?
Let the proud religious soldier
Guard the dream that he's been sold
Heaven fill my cup with mercy
I won't hide my gold
I won't hide my gold

And I don’t see why you’re over there now,
I can’t understand the words you’re saying to me,
Slide a little bit closer,
Now show me the way you feel about the cloud formations.
Baby, I love your mind,
I love your mind,
Baby, I love your mind, and I want your touch.
And if I pull over so you can have a turn, will you take us both into oblivion?
Do you really think the sun is gonna melt us, every one?
Do you blame the moon for hypertension?
I love your mind,
I love your mind,
Baby, I love your mind, and I want your touch,
Baby, I love your mind,
I love your mind,
Baby, I love your mind, and I need your kiss.
And if I come closer, honey, hold on tight to the wheel when you feel like driving us into a ditch.
Baby, I love your mind,
Baby, I love your mind,
Honey, I love your mind, and I want your touch,
Baby, I love your mind,
I love your mind,
Baby, I love your mind, and I need your kiss,
And I want your touch,
And I love your mind.
