Favourite Song Lyrics

There’s no more little secrets we haven’t yet disclosed
We bore the living daylights of anyone too close
And all our cards at Christmas are written to us both
Count them up who’s got the most?

Said we’d be close
Said we’d work perfectly
Said that we’d toast
Beautiful company

Closer than a sister to her baby brother
Closer than a cat to the child that she’ll smother
It’s too close for a lover
It’s too close for a lover
We are each other
We are each other

We’ve been through all positions and this one’s definitely best
You move Middle East and I’ll move Wild West
What happened to our friendship we could easily have guessed
Add it up we’re self-possessed

Said we’d be true
Said we’d be so so proud
Just me an you
We’d shout it out aloud

Closer than a sister to her baby brother
Closer than a cat to the child that she’ll smother
It’s too close for a lover
It’s too close for a lover
We are each other
We are each other

Remember we went shopping and we went by piggyback
I shaved all my legs and you grew hairs upon your back
Well no-one’s ever been since to this lover’s shack
It’s a cul-de-sac

Said we’d be close
Said we’d work perfectly
Said that we’d toast
Beautiful company

Said we’d be true
Said we’d be so so proud
Just me an you
We’d shout it out aloud

Closer than a sister to her baby brother
Closer than a secret agent working under cover
It’s too close for a lover
It’s too close for a lover
We are each other
We are each other

his Years Love – David Gray

This years love had better last
Heaven knows it’s high time
And I’ve been waiting on my own too long
But when you hold me like you do
It feels so right
I start to forget
How my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like you can’t go on

Turning circles when time again
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
If you love me got to know for sure
Cos it takes something more this time
Than sweet sweet lies
Before I open up my arms and fall
Losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
And when you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain’t this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last

So whose to worry
If our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don’t you know this life goes on
And won’t you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain’t this life so sweet

This years love had better last

Are You the One I’ve Been Waiting For
Nick Cave

I’ve felt you coming girl, as you drew near
I knew you’d find me, cause I longed you here
Are you my desitiny? Is this how you’ll appear?
Wrapped in a coat with tears in your eyes?
Well take that coat babe, and throw it on the floor
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for?

As you’ve been moving surely toward me
My soul has comforted and assured me
That in time my heart it will reward me
And that all will be revealed
So I’ve sat and I’ve watched an ice-age thaw
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for?

Out of sorrow entire worlds have been built
Out of longing great wonders have been willed
They’re only little tears, darling, let them spill
And lay your head upon my shoulder
Outside my window the world has gone to war
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for?

O we will know, won’t we?
The stars will explode in the sky
O but they don’t, do they?
Stars have their moment and then they die

There’s a man who spoke wonders though I’ve never met him
He said, “He who seeks finds and who knocks will be let in”
I think of you in motion and just how close you are getting
And how every little thing anticipates you
All down my veins my heart-strings call
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for?
