I’ll be a whole lot better off When the season’s gonna change I’ll be a whole lot better off When it all be rearranged I’ll be a whole lot better off When that phone is gonna ring I’ll be a whole lot better off With what the future’s gonna bring Cause I’ll be holding out my hand And I’ll be trying to understand I’ll be a whole lot better off I’ll keep on going head over heels Until a whole lot of useless stuff Will be falling off of me I’ll be a whole lot better off I won’t clap hands to everything I’ll be a whole lot better off With what the future’s gonna bring Cause I’ll be reaching out my hand And I’ll be trying the best I can It will be obvious to see That after all I’m gonna be A whole lot better off

True love will never wait Messengers will invade There might be something in between Hold on to the edge of a dream You saw her standing in the yard Her hair tied up in her scarf Sweet embrace of velveteen Hold on to the edge of a dream Hearing tomorrows morning bells She’ll be laying with somebody else True love will never wait Shall we dance it’s getting late There might be more than it seems Hold on the edge of your dream

Don’t miss what everybody else is doing Insist on your fundamental rights Imagine everyone else on their computer Trying hard not to be missing what you do Don’t be sad, don’t hesitate and don’t be sorry Try to focus on the big picture Go and loose that attitude and you’ll never be lonely You’ll be marching with an army of friends Outside things are getting small Behind an illuminated wall

Everybody says you’re gone now That isn’t really hard to tell See me talking to an old friend Hear me saying I’m doing well It’s from this chair I used to watch you As you’ve been fooling round the house It’s this chair you used to sit on Looking through me with knitted brows And it’s true You’ve been demanding And beautiful, that’s nothing new When you left You left me standing In a world full of you My friends say it’s for the better That’s an easy thing to say I still have that book you loved so much I’m gonna read it all the way through You’ve been demanding And beautiful, that’s nothing new When you left You left me standing In a world full of you

Away 03:30
Away Off we go far away Got no reason to stay All we got is today Away Off we go far away Got no reason to stay All we got is today Feels like taking place Feels like somebody else Feels like loosing ourselves Feels like giving it all away Off we go far away Feels like giving it all away Got no reason to stay Feels like taking place Feels like somebody else Feels like loosing ourselves Feels like giving away

Into the haze Into the haze We got news if you want a real good hiding-place You won’t be seen if you put your hands in front of your face He’s gonna come He’s gonna come It’s gonna end up in a blast for everyone He’s gonna have legs He’s gonna have arms He’s gonna ruin all our lives with its charms Into the haze Into the haze We got news if you want a real good hiding-place You won’t be seen if you put your hands in front of your face Will he be you? Will he be me? Will he be caught in real bad company? Will he be sad one day, wish he wouldn’t live? Will we have anything there to give? Into the haze Into the haze We got news if you want a real good hiding-place You won’t be seen if you put your hands in front of your face

The world seems all blurry Since you woke from your sleep You’re up very early You’re down into deep Thoughts are like floating On the surface of a lake Your minds in a hurry With decisions to take Let go the night You burnt down your village In a dream crystal clear You hushed in embarrassment For everyone to hear Let go the night You dreamt of a forest You lay there in peace With all of your promises Standing like trees The world seems all blurry Since you woke from your sleep You’re up very early You’re down into deep

Little cabin by the sea Will you be my home one day Little cabin by the sea Will you be my home one day Dwelling on a mountain high The rivers in the valley have run dry Dwelling on a mountain high The rivers in the valley have run dry Little cabin by the sea Will you turn out real eventually Little cabin by the sea Will you turn out real eventually Dwelling on a mountain high The lowlands they have left me high and dry Dwelling on a mountain high The lowlands they have left me high and dry A loving voice, a gentle breeze Playing underneath the willow trees A loving voice, a gentle breeze Playing underneath the willow trees Little cabin on the shore Will I ever walk right through your door Little cabin on the shore Will I ever see your open door
9.
Everybody check out from the cool Everybody check out from the cool Shake your body and act just like a fool Act just like fool Wash your hair with milk and ginger oil Wash your hair with milk and ginger oil Move your body in the fertile muddy soil The fertile muddy soil Waste your time on a boring friend Say something nice about the government If that’s all you’re gonna get Why not start to moan and beg
