Now should we part Or stay awhile? As if we were still lovers" She took a moment just to recognise The man sheÕd known so well before And as he started to apologise Lose any bitterness she bore She gently put her finger on his lips To let him know she understood And with her suit case standing on the floor Embraced him like a lover would He told Louise "You look so good ItÕs just you see You make me feel As if we were still lovers" [Spoken:] It's not always true that time heals all wounds. There are wounds that you don't wanna heal, the memories of something really good, something truly real, that you never found again. And though they talked for just a little time Before she said she had to go He saw the meeting as a tiny sign That told him all he had to know And so Louise Waved from the bus And as she left She gave that smile As if they were still lovers Lyrics by Philip Oakey @SONG: The Lebanon (Callis/Oakey) She dreams of nineteen sixty-nine Before the soldiers came The life was cheap on bread and wine And sharing meant no shame She is awakened by the screams Of rockets flying from nearby And scared she clings onto her dreams To beat the fear that she might die And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the Lebanon The Lebanon Before he leaves the camp he stops He scans the world outside And where there used to be some shops Is where the snipers sometimes hide He left his home the week before He thought heÕd be like the police But now he finds he is at war "WerenÕt we supposed to keep the peace" And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the Lebanon The Lebanon The Lebanon From the Lebanon I must be dreaming It canÕt be true I must be dreaming It canÕt be true And who will have won When the soldiers have gone? From the Lebanon The Lebanon The Lebanon From the Lebanon Lyrics by Philip Oakey @SONG: Betrayed (Oakey/Wright) When all the money's gone When all the boys move on No star to wish upon When every race is run In the quiet of the morning Lying in the morning sun Ruins of another country Day has just begun Blown by the desert breeze No memory of trees No mercy from the sky No avenue to try In the quiet of the morning Lying in the morning sun Ruins of another country Day has just begun When all the money's gone When all the boys move on No star to wish upon When every race is run In the quiet of the morning Lying in the morning sun Ruins of another country Day has just begun Lyrics by Philip Oakey @SONG: The Sign (Burden/Callis/Oakey) Around the nation, around the world What's been going down? A million voices, one question hurled Heard in every town All of the people, one simple plea What will happen now? Asked in concern for their destiny Got to know somehow They say They say Everything will be fine Everything will be fine Everything will be fine I saw the sign So if you want to know what's going on Going round and round You'd better ask before your world is gone Gone without a sound They say They say Everything will be fine Everything will be fine Everything will be fine I saw the sign Everything will be fine Everything will be fine Everything will be fine I saw the sign Lyrics by Philip Oakey @SONG: So Hurt (Burden/Oakey) It's hard I know to understand Nothing lasts for ever The things you used to say and do The places you would go to meet When you were together You set your face against the tide The harsh words that were spoken But after all the anger The shouting and the tears You found your heart was broken Fight the tears Fight the fever Don't give in Soul deceiver So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died Just like the clock went back ten years To make a new beginning To work out how to live your life To take the board and play the game And recognise you're winning Your memories mean nothing now You're just a little older Moving forward with the crowd Silent fears but laughing loud Not wiser but just bolder Fight the tears Fight the fever Fight the hurt Don't give up So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died Lyrics by Philip Oakey @SONG: Life On Your Own (Callis/Oakey/Wright) Winter is approaching ThereÕs snow upon the ground ItÕs good of you to visit me IÕm glad you came around I donÕt know how you found me I didnÕt let you know I only moved to this address About a week ago I guess you think I ran out But thatÕs not true Other people settle down I never do I always have to move on Just have to go IÕve often wondered why that is IÕd like to say but I just donÕt know I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own Up here the summerÕs shorter And winterÕs very cold IÕm looking forward to the peace My lonely life will hold IÕm really glad you came here Thank you for the talk ItÕs funny how my problem stopped When we went for a walk Standing here together Means so much I wonÕt forget your confidence I wonÕt forget your touch You know IÕll come to see you Passing through WeÕll always be a world apart IÕll travel on but I will be true I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own I guess you always wanted Life on your own Lyrics by Philip Oakey and Philip Adrian Wright @SONG: Don't You Know I Want You (Burden/Callis/Oakey) It's a beautiful night A cool breeze in the air Got the keys to my car But I don't want to go nowhere I'm not at all bored But I've plenty of time to spare There's only one thing that I know Would take me there I've got one thing to say to you I guess you just don't realise When you see me look at me There's more than friendship in my eyes Don't you know I want you Don't you know I want you You can really get a buzz Hanging out with the cool and free You can act like a monarch Or a pillar of the bourgeoisie Anything you want to do I'm never going to disagree But I've got a point of view How about a little sympathy I've got one thing to say to you I guess you just don't realise When you see me look at me There's more than friendship in my eyes Don't you know I want you Don't you know I want you Don't you know I want you Don't you know I want you Don't you know I want you Don't you know I want you Lyrics by Philip Oakey
