Red Velvet Green ————————- Red velvet green Fill the spaces that lie between Our love is a rose On a sea of green Our bed is clover Near that clear running stream You blood flows through my soul And you’re taking control Wash my soul clean Red Velvet green Red Velvet Green Wrapped in shades of tangerine Our love is ruby Surrounded by emeralds of green Your eyes full of fire And desire to colour my dreams And I hope and I pray That this moment will stay Now I have seen Red Velvet Green Emotions mix and colours run And our lives bleed together as one East of your Eden and south of your sun West of your leaving and north of me believing You are the only one Red Velvet Green Red Velvet Green Things that stood and have always been Our love is a rock Stood in a meadow of green Our love is red wine Sprung onto Paris green And we will stay strong Right where we belong You are all that I need Red Velvet Green

Too wild too fast too deep ————————————————— I’m drinking coffee on my own today No more rendezvous down at Tony’s cafe Since you’re been gone and left me to my books And a thousand unfinished lines and sympathetic looks Can’t say I was surprised —————————————- So goodbye baby Send our love to sleep Let this feeling die So goodbye baby My mind is running wild Too fast And way too deep ————————————————— So goodbye is a word I never say to you Maybe when that rain falls on your plain all your dreams fall through Can’t say if I’ll ever get to learn To say the words “I love you” in return I can’t say why ————————————- So goodbye baby Send our love to sleep Let this feeling die So goodbye baby My mind is running wild Too fast And way too deep ——————————————— You never know when the feeling dies It creeps up at night and robs you of your sleep So hold on Don’t let go Hold on Don’t let go of me ——————————————— Friends will tell you the words they never wrote Maybe this is why we live inside an empty note I’m back down here at Tony’s trying to make some sense of it all Waiting for the phone to ring but I know that you won’t call After all —————————————————- So goodbye baby Rock our love to sleep Let this true love die So goodbye baby My mind is running wild Too fast And way too deep ——————————— So goodbye baby Rock our love to sleep Let this true love die So goodbye baby My mind is running wild Too fast And way too deep

Living in a silent world ——————————— Life is but a crooked highway Take some time to straighten the line To go my way Be pleased to take you on Doesn’t matter what you say What you do is the only way to play the game If we’re moving on There is a sacred place No one wins a race Or tries to give a Damn Or tries to take a stand So don’t take this song Seriously Don’t take these words I say And sing them back to me On the breeze Every day of the week Don’t you speak Don’t have to speak Cause I feel just so complete Words would end the spell Can’t you tell You can’t tell Every minute of the day Don’t you say Don’t have to say Feelings are the silent tell Words would break the spell Can’t you tell You can’t tell Life on a pent up sea Sick and tired of this tiny little ship of broken dreams And pirate scenes Now All these thoughts pour in Drowning me in silence And washed out paper sin Sometimes I want to scream There is a sacred place No one wins a race Or tries to give a Damn Or tries to take a stand So don’t take this song So seriously Don’t take these words I say And sing them back to me Just believe Every day of the week Don’t you speak Don’t have to speak Cause I feel just so complete Words would end the spell Can’t you tell You can’t tell Every minute of the day Don’t you say Don’t have to say Feelings are the silent tell Words would break the spell Can’t you tell You can’t tell

Make her heart your home ——————————- You lived too hard You lived too long Never knowing where you belong You’ve come too far To leave it all behind But you’ve always been the leaving kind Time moves on without you It all adds up to nothing in the end So hold on to something and take it if you can Hold on tight with all your might And finally take a stand If you see those bad times coming Don’t face it on your own Fight the fight you know is right And make her heart your home And if you need an answer You know just what to do Search your heart And make a start It will finally come to you Time moves on so make her your very best friend Take her in your arms and love her to the end So hold on to something and take it if you can Hold on tight with all your might And finally take a stand If you see those bad times coming Don’t face it on your own Fight the fight you know is right And make her heart your home If you see the light of love in her eyes Take those chances It’s then you’ll realise Life is more than feeling broke and alone Take her by the hand and make her heart your home So hold on to something and take it if you can Hold on tight with all your might And finally take a stand If you see those bad times coming Don’t face it on your own Fight the fight you know is right And make her heart your home
