catholic – Lyrics
All the song lyrics for Gavin Friday‘s album ‘catholic‘.
Able
Don’t tell me you love me, I can feel your rage
Green eyes burning fatal, like a cat in a cage
You lie like a baby, licking your wound
The silence is deadly and our love is doomed
I wanna be able, to hold my own, to breathe without drowning, to find a home,
I want you to love me, don’t want you to lie.
Its all up for the taking, it’s the road to ruin
And there’s no hearts breaking, no song out of tune
You look for attention, you sometimes cry
I even love when you hate me, Oh baby you’re strange
I wanna be able, to tell you my name, to laugh without trying, to know no shame,
Touch without feeling, feeling your pain, feeling your pain, feeling…
In my life / and my soul, my little life / deep inside, way inside / now I know
I know I know I know…
Don’t stop, keep up, walk talk, fall down, break up, life and love
Hiding and cold waiting for the dawn…
A Godsend, love a landslide, something inside, I can’t let go…
I wanna be able, to find my own, I want you to love me, if you don’t you can lie.
Lie like a lover, don’t wanna be alone, I wanna be able… I wanna be able…
…to find my own, …to find my own… to find my own… I wanna be Able…
…I wanna be able… Able
Land On The Moon
Land on the moon… Land on the moon
If we close our eyes… it wont make it go away?
If we scream inside… It wont make it go away?
Come on Come on… Take my Hand…
Don’t let it make you cry, it can’t be all that bad
If we kneel and pray… will it make it a better day?
If we stay behind… they’ll never let us leave?
If we pull at the sky… touch the stars above?
If we jump from the earth… do you think we’ll land on the moon?
Come on Come on… Take my Hand…
Don’t let it make you cry, it can’t be all that bad
We’ll jump from the earth… Fly up in the sky
{Land on the Moon… Land on the Moon…}
Away from this world… and Land on the Moon
When we close our eyes… Do we sleep at night?
When we say goodbye… Are we running away?
Lets jump from the earth, I think we’ll Land on the Moon?
Where are we?
Come on Come on… Where are we?
Come on Come on… Where are we?
We‘ll jump from the earth… Fly up in the sky
{Land on the Moon… Land on the Moon…}
Away from this world… and Land on the Moon
Higher than high, way up in the sky, the moon is calling you and I
Sometimes the world is messing us up, sometimes the world is not enough
Come on Come on… Land on the Moon… Come on Come on…
Come on Come on… Land on the Moon… Come on Come on…
…We’ll Land on the moon
A Song That Hurts
No angels sing of deceit…
Is this a thought inside or just a song that hurts?
Another broken year, so full of bitter tears..
There’s something I can’t hide, it’s something you deny
So stop your dragging me around, stop your pulling me, down
A song that hurts, a love’s distain, a silent wound, a sad refrain
The blood, the cross, my Love, your Head, your lips, your kiss, the words we said
I stay awake all night… You stay away all day…
Is this a thought inside or just a song that hurts?
Another broken year, so full of bitter tears
There’s something I can’t hide, it’s something you deny…
I know no fear of love, you know no love of man
A song that hurts, a love’s distain, a silent wound, a sad refrain
The blood, the cross, my Love, your head, your lips, your kiss, the words we said
So thin the line between love and loving…
The Only One
You got the kindness of strangers, the trust of true friends
I’ll promise you nothing, you’re burning both ends
Your heart’s wish is vacant, your love’s up for sale
A sweet smell so fragant, it’s pulling my tail
We don’t notice a thing… We don’t notice each other
A touch soft on your tongue… And we’re kissing forever
All the heat in your empire is hitting you hard
And the blood in your veins is not where you are
So lets dance in slow tempo, bad memory erased
By the finger of Buddha, healing all that are crazed
We don’t notice a thing… We don’t notice each other
A touch soft on your tongue… and we’re kissing forever
I’m turning blue… You don’t see…
I look to God and you… You look to me… to me
We don’t notice a thing… We don’t notice each other
A touch soft on your tongue… and we’re kissing forever
You are, you are, the only one for me… You are, you are, the only one for me
You are, you are, the only one for me… You are, you are, the only one for me
The only one for me…
Blame
Once I was young, then I grew up
From the greylight to the bluelight to the daylight, have I grown up at all?
I love my mother, my friends and brothers, I even loved myfFather
{ I love you I love you I love you I love you }
…And that says a lot…
But when the silence comes… the silence comes… the silence comes,
…sometimes stays too long
It slits the throat, it cuts the throat of where I belong
and the night goes so slow, it always does when you’re feelin’ low
and all the words unspoken, like the hearts left broken
{ I love you I love you I love you }
Am I to blame?
{ I love you I love you I love you }
Am I to blame?
{I love you I love you I love you}
When all the seeds we’ve reaped and sown away from here and close to home
…like spirits have flown…
No one’s to blame.
The Sun & The Moon & The Stars
We crossed the line so many times
Something makes it feel not right
Something tells me somethings wrong
Break the mould so many changes
But I can’t see in your head
So I hold you in my arms instead
Into… Where you are… Into… You
The Sun and The Moon and the Stars
Keep holding on don’t let it go
It not because I don’t love you no more
It’s just we’re drifting for the shore
Here they come the highs and lows
No one knows where our love goes
And no one knows they make us strong
Into… Where you are… Into… You
The curtains torn, the sweat is borne
These days drag on and on…
Still our feet dance a lover’s trance
We drag it on and on…
I’ll give you whatever…
The Sun and the Moon and the Stars
The Sun shines so brightly
The Moon holds us tightly
The Stars guide us rightly
Through the light of the night
And the dark of the day
Don’t turn our world away
The Sun and the Moon
The Sun and The Moon
The Sun and The Moon and The Stars
The Sun and The Moon
The Sun and The Moon
The Sun and The Moon and The Stars
Into where you are… Into where you are…
It’s All Ahead Of you
And now the evening’s falling, it’s crawling deadly on its hands and knees
You’re waiting for your nightmare baby, not for me
Did you know, I believed in you when you didn’t in me?
Did you know, the best is yet to come?
It’s all ahead, if you want it…
It’s all behind you, if you can let it go
Now now never no more everything’s gonna be alright
Still you’re knocking at my door saying ‘Baby, please’
Did you know, I think about you when you don’t about me?
Did you know, the best is yet to come?
It’s all ahead of you, if you want it…
It’s all behind you, if you can let it go
That’s all I gotta give, if you want it?
Do you want it? It’s all ahead of you, its all behind you if you can let it go
If you can let it go, if you can let it go,
…Will you let me know… if you want it?
The truth is stolen, broken, dead but not forgotten
Your bad lips lie all the time, even when they smile
It’s all ahead of you, if you want it.
It’s all behind you, if you can let it go.
It’s all ahead of you, if you want it… if you want it …if you need it…
As the clock goes tick tick tockin’… stealing all our time, stealing all our time.
It’s all ahead of you.
Perfume
La Da Da, La Da Da
By the way of conclusion I saw that nothing was there
So amongst the confusion I go get me a beer
Cha Cha Cha Cha – Paolo Conte / Cha Cha Cha Cha – Padre Pio
Stop the lights we play truth or dare
She awaitin’ to kill me a wantin’ to snare
Cha Cha Cha Cha –Mea Culpa / Cha Cha Cha Cha – Paolo Conte
I Know, What I like, I Know… Know… La Da Da, La Da Da… Perfume
By the look in her eyes you could see the surprise
The intent is not cruel me a bendin’ the rule
Cha Cha Cha Cha – Dolorosa / Cha Cha Cha Cha – Padre Pio
Here the men get to choose so she falls off the chair
Her engines are burning and waiting to flare
Cha Cha Cha Cha – Mea Culpa / Cha Cha Cha Cha – Paolo Conte
I know, what I like , I know …know… La Da Da, La Da Da…
From these dizzy heights, tonight’s the night
She slips her tongue inside my head
I know my guilt, I never lie
Betrayal takes more than two
The heart melts, the lips hot, a sad sigh, the sweet smell of… you
I know what I like… I know… know… La Da Da, La Da Da, Da Da
In the Church of love we kneel and pray
Holy! Holy!
Oh! Valentine! Valentine!
I touched his bones in a place near home
La Da Da, La Da Da… Da Da… Da Da
The sin is hell, the kiss and tell.
The sweet smell of …perfume
Perfume… Mea Mea Culpa Via Dolorosa
Perfume… Mea Mea Culpa Via Dolorosa
Epilogue
The best is yet … is yet to come
The best is yet … is yet to … yet to come … to come
The best is yet … is yet to come
Where’d Ya Go? Gone
Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Gone. Gone…
Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Gone. Gone…
Moanin’ cause I love you, baby baby come home… I know what I want…
You left me here on tenterhooks, you left me here alone
Hurtin’ bad, I’m hurtin’ I’m hurting to the bone
Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Gone. Gone…
Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Where’d ya go? Gone. Gone. Gone…
Moanin’ moanin’ forever, baby baby you’re gone… don’t know what I want…
Inside your tinderbox, the aftertaste, the bitter pill,
Green eyes lie… ’I love you’
There’s no perfect state of known innocence, if only love could remain unbroken.
Yeah… like a firefly… don’t do that no more… hurtin’ hurtin’ hurtin’
Counterfeit after counterfeit, everything is fake
Counterfeit after counterfeit, for the heart not to break
I’m moving… I’m moving…
Counterfeit after counterfeit for the heart not to break
I’m moving… I’m moving… Away… Away… from the heartache
…from the heartache
Away… away… away…
Lord I’m Comin’
I think I fell in love you smile alone like a drunken drug has gone and left me
Lord I’m comin’…
I think I sold my soul to what to who I still don’t know
My world is broken, my world is broken
And all the big mistakes who knows who’s right who cares who’s wrong
Lord I’m comin’… Oh Lord I’m comin’
I never knew the sound the sound of fear till I hit the ground
And I’m dying… Lord I’m dying
The little things in life the way you talk the way you smile
And I miss you… you know I miss you…
I think I fell in love but now the hurt the hurt is gone
And I’m homeless… Lord I’m homeless
I don’t know how to feel I don’t know what to say or do
And I’m coming… Lord I’m coming…
A whisper in my ear… all the things disappear…
I think I fell in love but now I know I’ve forgotten how
Lord I’m coming… Lord I’m coming
