Yesterday’s Tomorrow is Today

You don’t like it, but you’ve still got time on your hands

You don’t like it, but you’ve still got to understand

You can’t feel it, but the time’s running out on you now

You can’t sense it but the motions going up and not down

 

Here we go again

Keep on smiling through the hardest heavy rain

Yesterday’s tomorrow is today

Every step you take is a step along the way

Well, what else can I say?

 

Time passes like a clock overwound on a wall

You look away 'cos you can’t really cope anymore

You’ve broken free, but you haven’t made your way to the door

You’re looking out, but you can’t see yourself anymore

 

Here we go again

Keep on smiling through the hardest heavy rain

Yesterday’s tomorrow is today

Every step you take is a step along the way

Well, what else can I say?

 

Here we go again

Keep on smiling through the hardest heavy rain

Yesterday’s tomorrow is today

Every step you take is a step along the way

No more yesterdays

Keep on smiling through the hardest heavy rain

Yesterday's tomorrow is today

Yesterday’s tomorrow is today

 

 

The Sunlit Side of the Street

You

Light up the way

Keep night from the day

Keep the dark away

 

Here

We light up the street 

You and me

We cannot be seen

 

Oh!

I want you to know

That you’re not alone

Wherever you go

 

On the sunlit side of the street

By the line of the trees

Making memories

Pour your troubles into me

On the sunlit side of the street

 

And me?

I cannot see 

Where life’s taking me

In that way

I’m free

 

And no

some things can’t be

And fall down beneath

Just let them be

 

Here

Is far but now near

Hope will appear

Well that’s what I hear

 

And now 

We cannot see

Where this life leads

It’s just you and me

And we

We’re all we need

Someone to ease

the pain we all feel

 

 

On the sunlit side of the street

By the line of the trees

Making memories

Pour your troubles into me

On the sunlit side of the street

 

On the sunlit side of the street

We’ll be 

On the sunlit side of the street

 

All or Nothing At All

Down in the valley tonight

You are a satellite

Flying in a starlit sky

You are electric light

 

Calm and secure and serene

We’re standing by the big machine

The light you are is the hope you bring
You can change everything

Everything

 

If we get out of here

Voices will rise up to the call

If we get out of here at all

If we get out of here

We won’t look back at all

If we don’t get out of here 

We fall

All or nothing at all

 

Here come the passengers

Talking about the way it was

Dreaming about the time that’s lost

Value’s lost there’s only cost

 

Silver wings on simple things

Given grace to everything

Raised up as queens and kings

Still the lost and lonely sing

And still they sing

 

If we get out of here

Voices will rise up to the call

If we get out of here at all

If we get out of here

We won’t look back at all

If we don’t get out of here 

We fall

​

All or nothing at all

 

All or nothing at all

 

All or nothing at all

 

​

Time of Your Life

Nostalgia is washing over me

It has no place in my reality

Take me back where I belong

Take me back to where I come from 

 

Take me back again 

To 1979

Take me back to the time

Take me back again 

We can fly across the night 

Welcome to the time of your life

 

All tomorrow’s belong to today

We are told to hurry up and wait

You can’t start a chapter without turning a page

The effect on the psyche will never go away

 

Take me back again 

To 1979

Take me back to the time

Take me back again 

We can fly across the night 

Welcome to the time of your life

 

 

Take me back again 

To 1979

Take me back to the time

Take me back again 

We can fly across the night 

Welcome to the time of your life

 

This is the Year

In the epilogue 

In the afterglow

There was nothing

I would rather know

 

In the in-betweens

In the words beneath

We are thinking

That we are never here

 

Shout out loud and turn it down

The sound of the future is always here

Shout to the clouds, you can’t bring them down

The sound of tomorrow is always near

 

This is the Year

This is the Year

 

We are driving

Through the lights surrounding you

We are drifting

Through white lights turning blue

 

We are mourning

But things will always change

We are flying

But nothing will will remain

 

Shout out loud and turn it down

The sound of the future is always here

Shout to the clouds, you can’t bring them down

The sound of tomorrow is always near

 

This is the Year

This is the Year

 

Shout out loud and turn it down

The sound of the future is always here

Shout to the clouds, you can’t bring them down

The sound of tomorrow is always near

 

Shout to the clouds, you can’t bring them down

The sound of tomorrow is always near

 

Shout out loud and turn it down

Shout out loud and turn it down

Shout out loud and turn it down

 

The Great Divide

 Everything you want

And nothing that you need

Everything has changed

And not as it would seem

 

Oh

We keep on keeping on

Down our lonely roads

Oh no

Oh

I keep thinking of my childhood home

Oh Lord

And time, time has come to find

All our restless minds

Save our souls

And here

Across the great divide

We’ll come to realise

We are one

 

Simplified and isolated

We’re divided by design

Pieces of sky are falling

But you're the satellite

 

Oh

We keep on keeping on

Down our lonely roads

Oh no

Oh

I keep thinking of my childhood home

Oh Lord

And time, time has come to find

All our restless minds

Save our souls

And here

Across the great divide

We’ll come to realise

We are one

 

We all talk too much

We all stand and watch

We listen to the wind

 

This is a rush against time

Shadows thrown by life

You’re awake in some else’s dream

 

We all stand in line

Raise our heads to find

We’re all on the great divide

 

We all stand in line

Raise our heads to find

We’re all on the great divide

 

Indigo

Oh! There we go!

You know what it is you know

There’s that feeling down below

Standing up from laying low

 

Got to let the good thing get up and go

 

Taking one eye off the telescope

 

I’m stand up on my own

What I really want to know

As the lights are getting low

Is can I maintain my control

 

It was a long, long time ago

 

I was dressed in indigo

 

We’re all dressed in indigo

And everything we’ll ever know

There’s still a long long way to go

We are indigo 

 

Hey! Hello!

What is it you want to know?

The light pulls from down below

The dial was cranked to overload

 

That was a long, long time ago

 

We’re all dressed in indigo

 

Speeding up to go slow

You never know until you know

Running uphill down the road

Lightening strikes from head to toe

 

I’ve still got a long, long way to go

 

We’re dressed in indigo

 

We’re all dressed in indigo

And everything we’ll ever know

There’s still a long long way to go

We are indigo

 

We’re all dressed in indigo

And everything we’ll ever know

There’s still a long long way to go

We are indigo

 

 

Shake it Down

What’s the matter with you

What good is it now?

What’s the matter with you

That you’re smiling upside down

​

What’s the matter with you

You’re coming down uptown

You just need to find your feet

And figure it all out

​

I will be

Around

Around

When you’re down and out

I will be

Around

Around

Wait and see

We’ll shake it down

​

What’s the matter with you

Now the rain is coming down

No matter what the weather 

I will be around

 

I will be

Around

Around

When you’re down and out

I will be

Around

Around

Wait and see

We’ll shake it down

 

I will be

Around

Around

When you’re down and out

I will be

Around

Around

Wait and see

 

Shake it down

 

Shake it down

​

 

Finding Fire With Fire

I can’t see see and I can’t even think

A wayfarer for hire

Standing here just fixing my drink

Fighting fire with fire

Finding fire with fire

 

I can’t dream and I can’t even feel

Finding somewhere to hide

Waiting for the biggest reveal

The truth behind the disguise

 

Finding fire with fire

 

It’s midnight before you are here

 

Night begins as you walk in the room

The crowd parts as you walk through

Night lights as the music begins

The blue moonlight will find you 

 

Finding fire with fire

 

Turning right when the music begins

I can only comply

Rhythm rests in the depths of your souls

And I can get by

 

Finding fire with fire

 

It’s midnight before you are here

​

Good Night

All is quiet in the night

We have come home from the shadows 

We're sitting here by the fire

You will always be by our side

​

These days of walking home from the woods

Running between the trees

All these years nothing can replace

Good night, sweet dreams

​

Summer days in sunlit fields

Running through the woodland as moonlight falls

Run on,, knowing love

We'll be with you when tomorrow comes

​

These days of walking home from the woods

Running between the trees

All these years nothing can replace

Good night, sweet dreams

​
