Mother

This city is on fire tonight,

Sweet forest fire silent and unseen,

The sleepers awaken.

Your eyes are open I know you’re smiling at me.

Some people say you’re not here anymore

But your trees stand proud

And laugh and let them pass

So mischievous and holy;

And this is a question I’ll never want to ask.

There’s a moon out there and she wants to be growing.

There’s a river down here and she wants to go back to the sea.

I am your child, mother,

Crying to be consoled.

I recognize you now,

Do you recognize me?

There’s a part of me that wants to be silent,

Immersed in your movement,

Stung by your grace.

And here is your song, and I’ll sing it,

I’m coming home,

I’ve never been away.

There’s a moon out there and she wants to be growing.

There’s a river down here and she wants to go back to the sea.

I am your child, mother,

Crying for you to console me.

Now that I know you,

Do you recognize me?

There’s a moon out here and she wants to be growing.

Here’s a river down here and she wants to go back to the sea.

I am your child, mother,

Crying to be consoled.

Now that I know you,

Recognize me!

Radio London

Up in smoke

Book of love in front of me

Tries to bite my chin;

Angel right behind my shoulder

Waits to do me in;

I wish I had a heart

To walk me like a dog –

But life’s a sweet thing,

Going up in smoke.

Used to be a passenger,

Now they take me as their own;

Used to be a fisher-king

But now my cross is gone.

I wish I had some faith,

But all I do is talk –

And life’s a sweet thing,

Going up in smoke.

We could be engineers,

We could drive a coach;

Could be real New Age

With positive approach.

I wish I still could laugh,

I wish it was a joke –

But life’s a sweet thing,

Going up in smoke.

Eloise

Standing in the rain outside

Wondering if the sky is really made out of air

There she is, always looking right at me

But is she? I can’t really tell

And I don’t really care

Eloise

Something of the child

Something of the bride

And sometimes

Just not there.

Help me, please,

Discover about your secret life
