SUNFLOWER - Paul Weller



I don't care how long this lasts

We have no future - we have no past

I write this now while I'm in control

I'll choose the words and how the melody goes -



Along winding streets, we walked hand in hand

And how I long for that sharp wind

To take my breath away again

I'd run my fingers through your hair

Hair like a wheatfield, I'd run through

That I'd run through -



And I miss you so - I miss you so

No you're gone, I feel so alone

I miss you so



I'd send you a flower - a sunflower bright

While you cloud my days, messing up my nights



And all the way up to the top of your head

Sunshower kisses, I feld we had



And I miss you so - I miss you so

All I gotta do, is think of you - and I miss you so



Baby I'm afraid to say why - I miss you so



CAN YOU HEAL US (HOLY MAN) - Paul Weller



Crystal words, that hang so fine - But none will stop us falling

Pulling faster all the time - Powerless to warnings



If you feel the hand of God - Can you guide it holy man?

But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement



Still saying! Daddy don't weep, Momma don't cry

Everybody gets their time

Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for you



Split the Father and the Son - Hand words to ease them

In the other is a gun - baptized by fear, and



If you have the hand of God - Can you heal us, holy man?

But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement



Still saying! Hang on tight, hang on strong

How much longer can this go on

But don't be sad, don't be blue - It's one more thing set to confuse



Daddy don't weep, Momma don't cry

Every fear must have its time

Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for you.



Can you bring the hand of God?

Can you stop the killing?

Get us back to hope and love - Never more be needed -



Still saying! Bloods gone bad, bad to worse

Worse to bad and back again

But don't be sad, don't be blue - It's one more thing sent to confuse

Momma don't weep, Daddy don't cry

Every fear must have its time

Don't be sad, don't be blue - Pray for me, I'll do the same for you.



WILD WOOD - Paul Weller



High tide - mid afternoon

People fly by, in the traffics boom

Knowing - where you're blowing

Getting to where, you should be going.



Don't let, them get you down

Making you feel, guilty about

Golden rain, bring you riches

All the good things - you deserve now.



Climbing, forever trying

Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood

Now theres, no justice

There's only yourself - that you can trust in

And I said - high tide, mid afternoon

People fly by, in the traffics boom

Knowing - just where you're blowing

Getting to where, you should be going.



Day by day, your world fades away

Waiting to feel - all the dreams that say

Golden rain will bring you riches

All the good things - you deserve now - and I say

Climbing, forever trying

Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood



ALL THE PICTURES ON THE WALL - Paul Weller



And all the pictures on the wall

Serve only to remind you of it all

The wasted days we could have lived

Now we're left with nothing left to give



There was a time I really loved you

But when that was I just can't say

As all the memories merge into one

As each day becomes each day



The clock hands ticking on the wall

Are just reminders of it all

The wasted days we could have lived

Now we're left with nothing left to give



We used to meet each others' eyes

And that's all we'd have to say

Now we don't talk that much at all

The further our eyes seem to stray



And in a funny kind of way

This empty room was full one day

Full of love that we once shared - now it all looks so bare

The silent walls whose cracks I feel -

But is there room to let the hatred heal?



HAS MY FIRE REALLY GONE OUT?



And when I open my eyes - will it then be morning?

First rays of summer sun - coming down and shining



And if I open my heart and say all that you would want

Hope, faith and all I believe will be there to greet me



And if I open my head, remember all that I said

Hey baby, what will you find - coming down to meet you?



A lot of words but no one talking

I don't want no part of that

Something real is what I'm seeking

One clear voice in the wilderness



And put an end to all your doubts -

Has my fire really, really gone out?



COUNTRY - Paul Weller



I know a place not far from here

Where life's sweet perfume fills the air

And if you want, I'll take you there

If you want, I'll take you there



Into the light out of the dark

Where only love can heal your heart

And if you want I'll make a start

If you want - I'll make a start



This place I say, half hour away

Is that so far to go? - so near

And further on we'll find the time

And lose the discontent we feel - that we feel



I feel the time we've yet to reach

Is not yet within our own belief

But I feel sure that time has come

If it goes on at all - if it goes on and on - if it goes on and on



I know a place not far from here

Where life's sweet perfume fills the air

And if you want we'll lay a while there

If you want, we'll lay a while there
