Lips (lyrics) I can taste your lips I can taste your lips against my lips I can taste your hips I can taste your hips against my lips Our memories are salt in my sea, and the honey in my tea Little butterfly skipping so way up high into the moon The salvia kicked in much too soon Turn off the light your coming home to the sound of a wailing moan I want to see you smile i want to see you smile when i close my eyes into the night I want to see you smile i want to see you smile for miles and miles for miles and miles I want to see your eyes I want to see your eyes reflect in the sky reflect in the sky I want to see your eyes i want to see your eyes for miles and miles for miles and miles

Monkey Song I just want to lie down next to you Said the monkey to moon His eyes welled up it was so beautiful Out of the city, visiting relatives in the jungle Without his suitcase or his car keys Just swinging from tree to tree With nothing to hold, just swinging free And there’s gotta be something for you and me And he believes Driving home he starts to turn down Motorways of self doubt about what he’s doing thinks to himself ‘Man there’s gotta be more to life than the money he’s pursuing.’ So he throws away his car keys And he heads for the trees With nothing to hold just swinging free And there’s gotta be something for you and me And I believe, in humanity So I throw away my car keys, And I head for the trees With nothing to hold, just swinging free And there’s gotta be something for you and me And we believe…

Lions In The Shade (lyrics) Wine bottles hold candles, my heart’s filled with wine I like your beard, it’s longer than mine I sit in the sunshine, though I like the shade We’re going outside, everybody can play Scotch in the meantime, water while we eat Whatever you fancy, we like to say fancy Lying in the sunshine, lions in the shade We’re going outside, everybody can play When we’re lying in the shade We’re like lions in the shade.

Wings (lyrics) I’ve got wings but I cant fly I’ve drink but I’m tryin to stay dry I’ve got a smoke for lonely nights But I don’t feel like getting high Shafts of street-light are my only guide Still I stay at home and write I’ve got tongues but they don’t talk I’ve got legs but they wont walk I’ve got a heart that’s caving in All my knees and elbows are broken I’ve got love but I feel blind I’ve got eyes but can’t be kind

The Sea (lyrics) I’ve done a bit of dancing You know I like those old songs I’ve done a bit of singing And you sometimes sang along But nothing compares to the sea when you’re lost No nothing compares to sun I’ve done some stargazing You know they light my way home I’ve done some love making From the night until the dawn But nothing compares to the sea when you’re lost No nothing compares to sun And I’ve done a bit of living But I still feel so young And I’ve done a bit of dreaming But it never lasts long But nothing compares to the sea when you’re lost No nothing compares to sun
