ALBUM: Erasure - Union Street (2006) Boy Piano Song Stay With Me Spiralling Home Tenderest Moments Alien Blues Away How Many Times? Love Affair Rock Me Gently All songs written by Clarke/Bell SONG: Boy - Union Street Love you boy, till I fall The child in me again, he plays the fool Cry for joy, amen For after all, it's only love And the way you stir your coffee Like an angel in the morning Still you dare to change your mind You'll be sorry when it's over When you've had your taste of freedom Don't come crying on my shoulder Save your tears, don't mean much Is the guilty party me? I don't think so And it's, it's no bed of roses lying here Tossing & turning Still you dare to change your mind You'll be sorry when it's over When you've had your taste of freedom Don't come crying on my shoulder And these, these years of love & giving surely Must be something to you Still you dare to change your mind You'll be sorry when it's over When you've had your taste of freedom Don't come crying on my shoulder Still you dare to change your mind You'll be sorry when it's over When you've had your taste of freedom Don't come crying on my shoulder SONG: Piano Song - Union Street Never get angry at the stupid people Though I go crazy at the dullness of my life Sit and stare into a dusty window And empty face stares back at me and cries My vulnerability rushes up to me and I'm left here The rebel without a cause The deeper I delve into The consciousness of me and you The harder it gets I need to close my eyes What hurts me most I'll never see your eyes again Though I get weary doesn't mean that I'm unwilling My body belies me I'm of fertile mind As I grow older the world forgets me Or talks to me as if I'm some kind of child Their insensitivity washes over me 'til I'm left here The rebel without a cause The deeper I delve into The consciousness of me and you The harder it gets I need to close my eyes What hurts me most I'll never see your eyes again I try to forget I'll never see your eyes again I can't recollect I'll never see your eyes again What hurts me most I'll never see your eyes again Don't touch me SONG: Stay With Me - Union Street Tempered by greed, tall buildings breathe Give a sigh of relief when it's night Stirring from sleep, we night owls creep Is there any sign of life under this stone Star chime hollow & true Love, child Weep for me & I will cast your wheels in motion Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion Sheltered by creed, one piled on one Do you have a little room for one small one Light shine wild & free Sun, rise Weep for me & I will set your wheels in motion Keep with me & like a roller on the ocean Stand by me & I will fill you with devotion Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion Weep for me & sands of time will fill the ocean Keep with me 'til rays of sunshine fill the ocean Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion Stand with me & I will fill you with devotion Weep for me the sands of time will fill the ocean Keep with me & like a roller on the ocean Stand by me & I will fill you with devotion Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion The sands of time will fill the ocean Keep with me & rays of sunshine fill the ocean Walk with me the inner reaches of emotion SONG: Spiralling - Union Street I try hard to put you out of mind Every night alone I'm thinking 'bout you How can I avoid this pain without you I won't cry, I won't be sorry no more I know that this is something I'll get over Maybe I can learn to love another It's just a matter of time A matter of time Just because I lock myself in my room It doesn't mean that I'm afraid to talk to Those people I know that might have you seen you No return, I keep reminding myself I look back, don't regret a single moment I gonna mend this heart inside you've broken It's just a matter of time A matter of time It's just a matter of time A matter of time Show me the way they say safety in numbers I lift up my eyes to the sky And imagine a crowd of hearts that surround me And give the me courage to die Were you to weep and lie at my feet Then you'd wash all my troubles away And imagine the host of angels around me That give me the courage to die SONG: Home - Union Street I ain't never going home 'Cause I'm having a good time I ain't never going home 'Cause my time is come I'll wait for the winter To lie at my door White stretches out before me Leads me to the hall White circles play within my mind Ices over and freezes life Time will come, time will come, time will fall Bringing the world to its feet Bringing the world to its feet I ain't never turning back 'Cause I've come this far And I'm lost within my tracks I will follow the north star I'll wait till the springtime Is breathing at my door The wilderness before me Heeds the lions roar White circles play within my mind Ices over and freezes life Time will come, time will come, time will fall Bringing the world to its feet Bringing the world to her hands and her knees I'll wait till the winter Is lying at my door Time stretches out before me A stone's throw from the door White circles play within my mind Ices over and freezes life Time will come, time will come, time will fall Bringing the world to its feet Bringing the world to her hands and her feet Bringing the world to its feet SONG: Tenderest Moments - Union Street We go down to a foreign land Dive through the clouds You hold the guided light in your hands This must be all that there is Times don't come much more beautiful You can show me places that my eyes have never seen I'm following you, where are you taking me to? You could be my angel who just walks out of a dream I'm following you, where are you taking me to? I have all faith in you And these tenderest moments We circle low Embrace the night as she draws us in A holy shroud, a veil to hide our tenderest moments This must be all that there is Times don't come much more beautiful You can show me places that my eyes have never seen I'm following you, where are you taking me to? You could be my angel who just walks out of a dream I'm following you, where are you taking me to? I have all faith in you And these tenderest moments SONG: Alien - Union Street Cuts to the quick Pure emotion, a trip No word of a lie Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah Pressed to your lips We collide, slowly twist Ardent and lithe Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah Seeps into the ground Kisses the earth and I am found Love's young dream could be alien Strange ways, how we fly Tuning low like a radio Whispering goodbye Alien, wo-ah, alien Just so it seems Softly potent, serene Vacant and shy Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah You are everywhere Under my skin and in my hair Love's young dream could be alien Strange ways, how we fly Tuning low like a radio Whispering goodbye Wo-ah, alien Seeps into the ground Kisses the earth and I am found Love's young dream could be alien Strange ways, how we fly Tuning low like a radio Whispering goodbye Love's young dream could be alien Strange ways, how we fly Tuning low like a radio Whispering goodbye Love's young dream could be alien Strange ways, how we fly Tuning low like a radio Whispering goodbye Love's young dream Could be serene So alien SONG: Blues Away - Union Street Can you see this predilection Rushing through my head Was a morning full of circumstance I was seeing red Put my blues away Navigation gone astray Went any way I could Haven't got the time of day Cannot see why I should Put my blues away I can hope I can pray Until you Find me Someday Always had my reservations Who am I to blame Walked into the ring of fire Heart in a wall of flames Put my blues away My emotion running riot Through the neighbourhood Screaming in the dead of night I wish to be understood Put my blues away Hey little darling Tell me where you are 'cause I ain't got 20/20 vision And I know you're here somewhere And it's nearly bedtime And I'm getting lonely SONG: How Many Times? - Union Street Love leave me alone I've got troubles of my own I do believe that I have paid the price For all the things I've said and done Every little thing that seemed to go wrong How many times will I regret the chances taken? Why do I end up always the one who is mistaken? Love leave me to sleep Let me wallow in my dreams See the icy past fades away The dawning of a brand new day The echoes of the past that still remind me How many times will I regret the chances taken? Why do I end up always the one who is mistaken? SONG: Love Affair - Union Street It's not just a love affair, it's all or nothing Do I bet it all on love? Or change and freak out? When the chances come my way, will they up and disappear? Will it ever go my way? Or am I out of here? There'll be tears before your bedtime, you mark my words You wanted more than I could give you You wanted more than you could have It's not just a love affair, it's now or never Could I give it all to you? Is that what we're about? If I hold you will you stay? Or will you up & disappear Be forever & a day, like your letter said There'll be tears before your bedtime You mark my words You wanted more than I could give you You wanted more than you could have When the chances come my way, will they up and disappear? Will it ever go my way? Or am I out of here? There'll be tears before your bedtime You mark my words You wanted more than I could give you You wanted more than you could have (Love's growing stronger every day) More than you could have (Love's growing stronger in every way) More than you could have (Love's growing stronger every day) More than you could have (Love's growing stronger in every way) SONG: Rock Me Gently - Union Street Past five in the morning Feeling worse for the weather it seems But what a feeling What an endless night this has been And we can't stay here 'cause we wont be forever young We'll have to go down Before innocence is lost And I dream you're with me You hold me sweetly And rock me gently to sleep In you arms I've been getting used to all the crying And the games that you play And if I carry on I'm gonna end up with a Hole in my head And there's more to life Than thrills & spills & dollar bills We'll have to get through Some way & some how I dream I'm with you You hold me sweetly And rock me gently to sleep In you arms I dream you're with me You hold me sweetly And rock me gently to sleep In you arms
