I'll Be Seeing You lyrics - Andrea Corr

(written by Irving Kahal, Sammy Fain)

I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through.

In that small cafe,
The park across the way,
The children's carousel,
The chestnut tree,
The wishin' well.

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day;
In every thing that's light and gay.
I'll always think of you that way.

I'll find you
In the morning sun
And when the night is new.
I'll be looking at the moon,
But I'll be seeing you.

Pale Blue Eyes lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Lou Reed)

Sometimes I feel so happy,
Sometimes I feel so sad.
Sometimes I feel so happy,
But mostly you just make me mad.
Baby, you just make me mad.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Thought of you as my mountain top,
Thought of you as my peak.
Thought of you as everything,
I've had but couldn't keep.
I've had but couldn't keep.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

If I could make the world as pure and strange as what I see,
I'd put you in the mirror,
I put in front of me.
I put in front of me.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

(Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes)

Skip a life completely.
Stuff it in a cup.
She said, "Money is like us in time,
It lies, but can't stand up.
Down for you is up."
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

It was good what we did yesterday.
And I'd do it all again.
The fact that you are married,
Proves you're my best friend.
But it's truly, truly a sin.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Blue Bayou lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Roy Orbison)

I feel so bad I got a worried mind
I’m so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
On blue bayou

Saving nickles, saving dimes
Working until the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
On blue bayou

I’m going back someday
Come what may
To blue bayou
Where you sleep all day
And the catfish play
On blue bayou
Where the fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I’d be

Go to see my baby again
Want to be with some of my friends
Maybe I’d be happy then
On blue bayou

I’m going back someday
Gonna stay
On blue bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On blue bayou
Oh that girl of mine
By my side
The silver moon
And the evening tide
Oh some sweet day
Take away
This hurting inside

I’ll never be blue
My dreams come true
On blue bayou

From The Morning lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Nick Drake)

A day once dawned, and it was beautiful
A day once dawned from the ground
Then the night she fell
And the air was beautiful
The night she fell all around.

So look see the days
The endless colored ways
And go play the game that you learned
From the morning.

And now we rise
And we are everywhere
And now we rise from the ground
And see she flies
And she is everywhere
See she flies all around

So look see the sights
The endless summer nights
And so play the game that you learned
From the morning

So look see the sights
The endless summer nights
And so play the game that you learned
From the morning

State Of Independence lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Jon & Vangelis)

State of life-may I live-may I love
Coming out the sky, I name me a name

Coming out-silver word-what it is
It is the very nature of the sound the game
Siamese, Indionese. To Tibet treat the life
As a game, if you please

(Hey)

Coming up-Carabi-this sense of freedom
Derives from a medative State

Movin' on, 'believe' that's it, call it magic
Third world, it is, I only guessed it

Shablam idi Shablam ida
Shablam idi Shablam ida
Shablam idi Shablam ida

Shot to the soul-the flame of Oroladin
The essence of the word
The 'State Of Independence'

Sounds like a signal from you
Bring me to meet your sound
And I will bring you to my heart

Love like a signal you call
Touching my body my soul
Bring to me, you to meet me here

Home be the temple of your heart
Home be the body of your love
Just like Holy water to my lips

(Hey, hey)

Yes I do know how I survive
(Yes I do know) know why I'm alive
To love and be with you
Day by day by day by day

(Hey, hey)
Say-Aye yaya oh
(Yayah yaya oh)
'Be the sound of higher love' today

(Yayah)

(Hey, hey)
Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all-in his wisdom-hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This State of independence shall be
This State of independence shall be
Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all-in his wisdom-hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be

No 9 Dream lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by John Lennon)

So long ago
Was it in dream?
Was it just a dream?
I know, yes I know
It seemed so very real,
It seemed so real to me.

Took a walk down the street
Through the heat whispered trees
I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear)
Somebody call out my name
As it started to rain
Two spirits dancing so strange

Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé

Dream, dream away
Magic in the air,
Was magic in the air?
I believe, yes I believe
More I cannot say, what more can I say?

On a river of sound
Through the mirror go round, round
I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel)
Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold
The spirit dance was unfolding

Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé
Ah! Böwakawa poussé, poussé

Tinseltown In The Rain lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by The Blue Nile)

Why did we ever come so far?
I knew I'd seen it all before
Tall building reach up in vain
Tinseltown is in the rain
I know now love was so exciting

Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women, here we are,
Caught up in this big rhythm

One day this love will all blow over
Time for leaving the parade
Is there a place in this city
A place to always feel this way
And hey, there's a red car in the fountain

Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women, here we are,
Caught up in this big rhythm

Do I love you? Yes I love you
Will we always be happy go lucky?
Do I love you? Yes I love you
But it's easy come, and it's easy go
All this talking is only bravado yeah

Oh, Tinseltown

Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women, here we are,
Caught up in this big rhythm
Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women, here we are,
Caught up in this big rhythm
Tinseltown is in the rain

Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Do I love you? Yes I love you
Will we always be happy go lucky?
Do I love you? Yes I love you
But it's easy come, and it's easy go
All this talking, talking is only bravado

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain

They Don't Know lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Kirsty MacColl)

You've been around for such a long time now
Maybe I could leave you but I don't know how
And why should I be lonely every night
When I can be with you, oh yes you make it right

No I don't listen to the guys who say
That you're bad for me and I should turn you away
Cause they don't know about us
They've never heard of love

I get a feeling when I look at you
Wherever you go now I wanna be there too
They say we're crazy but I just don't care
And if they keep on talkin' still they get nowhere

No I don't mind if they don't understand
When I look at you and you hold my hand
Cause they don't know about us
They've never heard of love

Why should it matter to us if they don't approve
We should just take our chances now we've got nothing to lose

Baby

There's no need for living in the past
Now I found good love I'm gonna make it last
I tell the others don't bother me
Cause when they look at you they don't see what I see

No I don't listen to their wasted lines
Got my eyes wide open and I see the signs
Cause they don't know about us
They've never heard of love

No I don't listen to their wasted lines
Got my eyes wide open and I see the signs
Cause they don't know about us
They've never heard of love
They don't know about us
They've never heard of love
They don't know about us
They've never heard of love

Lifeline lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Harry Nilsson)

Why did we ever come so far ?
I knew I'd seen it all before
Tall building reach up in vain
Tinseltown is in the rain
I know now love was so exciting

Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women
Here we are, caught up in this big rhythm

One day this love will all blow over
Time for leaving the parade
Is there a place in this city
A place to always feel this way
And hey, there's a red car in the fountain

Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women
Here we are, caught up in this big rhythm

Do I love you ? Yes I love you
Will we always be happy go lucky ?
Do I love you ? Yes I love you
But it's easy come, and it's easy go
All this talking is only bravado yeah

Oh, Tinseltown

Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women
Here we are, caught up in this big rhythm
Tinseltown in the rain
Oh men and women
Here we are, caught up in this big rhythm
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Do I love you ? Yes I love you
Will we always be happy go lucky ?
Do I love you ? Yes I love you
But it's easy come, and it's easy go
All this talking, talking is only bravado

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain
Tinseltown is in the rain

Tomorrow In Her Eyes lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Ron Sexsmith)

I see tomorrow in your eyes
And where my future lies
So I don't need a crystal ball
At all because I've seen tomorrow
In your eyes.

Whenever life tears us away
I'll hold on to the words we say
And if I have to wait a while
Then I'll be dreaming of tomorrow
And your smile

Someday soon love
Someday soon love
There'll be time for you and I love

And time shall hold no sad surprise
More hellos than goodbyes
So I don't need my fortune told
I know because I've seen tomorrow
In your eyes.

No, I don't need a crystal ball
At all because I've seen tomorrow
In your eyes.
I've seen tomorrow in your eyes.

Some Things Last A Long Time lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Half Japanese)

Your picture
Is still
On my wall,
On my wall.
The colors are bright,
Bright as ever.
The red is strong,
Blue is pure,
Some things last a long time,
Some things last a long time.

Your picture
Is still
On my wall,
On my wall.
I think
About you
Often,
Often.
I won't forget all the things we did.
Some things last a long time,
Some things last a long time.

It's funny,
But it's true,
And it's true,
But it's not funny.
Time comes and goes.
All the while,
I still think about you.
Some things last a life time.
Some things last a life time.
Some things last a life time.

You've Got A Friend lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by Carole King)

When you're down and troubled and you need some love and care,
And nothing, nothing is going right,
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night.
You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend.
If the sky above you grows dark and full of clouds,
And that old north wind begins to blow,
Keep your head toget-her and call my name out loud.
Soon you'll hear me knockin' at your door.
You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes, I will.
Now ain't it good to know that you've got a
Friend when people can be so cold. They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you
And, take your soul if you let them.
Oh, but don't you let them.
You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes, I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend…

The Crystal Ship lyrics - Andrea Corr

(originally by The Doors)

Before you slip into unconsciousness,
I'd like to have another kiss,
Another flashing chance at bliss,
Another kiss.
Another kiss.

The days are bright and filled with pain.
Enclose me in your gentle rain.
The time you ran was too insane.
We'll meet again.
We'll meet again.

Oh, tell me where your freedom lies.
The streets are fields that never die.
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry.
I'd rather fly.

The crystal ship is being filled.
A thousand girls. A thousand thrills.
A million ways to spend your time.
When we get back,
I'll drop a line.

Hello Boys lyrics - andrea corr

Hello boys I know you're watching me,
I think that I like it.
I'm so tired that I can barely see,
Come find where my light is.

Now I don't want conversation,
It gets in the way.
Just use your intuition,
I'm here to play.

Hello boy, what's your name?
Hello boy, what's your name?

See me walking down the avenue,
I look like a waitress.
But I don't serve anything you've ever tasted,
I'm a plate.
Now I don't need smooth seduction.
I don't need a date.
I would take your complication,
I'll make you okay.

Hello boy, what's your name?
Hello boy, what's your name?

What do you really want?
What do you dream about?
Are you ready for?
Why do you do that?
What are you living for?
What do you dream about?
Are you ready for?
Why do you do (that)?

Hello boy, what's your name?
Hello boy, what's your name?

Anybody There lyrics - andrea corr

I get up late
Make my way
Down the stairs
Move into the kitchen
I drink tea
Read the mail
Feel the cold
Find myself a sweater

Could there be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
Now you're gone
Could anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

I don't look up
I hear your voice
With a smile
Tell me I'm an asshole
Your giving up
You wont move on
And what is life
If there's no-one there to share with

You say there'd be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
And now you're gone
Let anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

To late at night
To go to bed
So tired and numb
I won't even miss you
Won't think of times
I fell asleep
And never dreamed of no more night to kiss you (?)

Could there be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
And now you're gone
Give anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

Could there be
Anybody there
Anybody there to love me
And now you're gone
Could anybody there
Anybody there to hold me

Shame On You (To Keep My Love From Me) lyrics - andrea corr

You left me thinking what a bore
I'm always stuck inside
I've got a feeling there is more
Than I've been left behind
A lot of pain a lot of noise
That these four walls hide
Happy faces go to war.
And dance upon the mines

[Chorus]
Come join come join come join us
Your barely young come join us
Youd be a man come join come join us
You're big and strong come join us

You planted me in foreign ground
A pen within a hand
At least I am not on my own
In hell I have a friend
I know I find (innocence) ashamed?
It isn't my crusade
Dirty faces in a war
Asleep in open graves

Come join come join come join us
Your barely young come join us
You'll be a man come join come join us
Your big and strong come join us
Shame on you shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me-shame on you
Shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me
Shame on you shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me

Shame on you-close your eyes to see shame on you shame on you
Shame on you shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me
When you close your eyes to see
You block your heart to me?
You changed his name to a number?
But he survives a child

I Do lyrics - andrea corr

I want an open chariot,
Black horses and shiny shoes.
An off white vintage lacy gown,
I've Juliets hand me downs.

But Romeo ain't my lover
And all that really matters is

Hey, I love you. Hey I love you, love you I do.

I want a dream my mothers smile
Rains confetti from the sky
And dad's got a brand new poem to try,
He's sailing a lullaby.

And happily ever after
Is where I'm gonna live, cos...

Hey I love you. Hey I love you, love you I do.
I do. I do. I do.
Hey I love you. Hey I love you. I love you I do.

Ten Feet High lyrics - andrea corr

You ask me all kinds of questions
Like I, I've got something to hide
And I don't know why this all began.

You used to love me for freedom
Said you'd climb aboard and fly
Now we're on the ground, and I'm locked in.

I don't want to lie
Sayin' it's alright
Starin' at the walls 'round our lives
And are Ten Feet High
No, I'm not dumb.

You don't need to smile
When you hurt inside
I can see the doubt in your eyes
And the fun we had is done
But I won't sit and watch you
Go cold when summer has left the room
This curtain is closing
I'm not stayin' to see the end.

We said we'd never become this
And tell each other how to live
But now I know your high times aren't with me.

We keep finding more ways
To escape you and me
Pretend you're asleep when you're lying awake

I'm not gonna lie
Say it's alright
Starin' at the walls 'round our lives
We were Ten Feet High
No, I'm not dumb.

You don't need to smile when you hurt inside
I can see the doubt in your eyes
And the sun we had is down
But I don't want to
Say it's over when I still love you
Don't say it's over when I still love you

I won't let it go cold
When summer has left the room
This curtain is closing
I'm not stayin' to see the end

I won't watch it grow old
When summer has left the room
This curtain is closing
I'm not stayin' to be the end.

Say it's over and I still love you
Say it's over and I still love you

Champagne From A Straw lyrics - andrea corr

Midday in the underground,
There's a teenage girl selling music for her bed.
I'll be the one that you look upon
And thank your lucky stars
That you walk in your own shoes.

Clip clop past a sleeping bag
And a woolly hat
Lying open on the ground.
Give money and sympathy,
Hold your little girl
Like you won't see her again.

Does anyone know, the places you go.

On a day like today
I drink champagne from a straw
And I get my own way,
He loves me above them all.
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
On a day like today.

I've got my all over tan
And my tummy tuck,
My two babies boy and girl.
Big house in the country
With expensive bags
For my scary little dog.

My man sleeps around a bit,
Keeps him from my bed,
One less job for me to do.
I'm the one you look up to
And wish on every star
For one day in my high shoes.

Can anyone hear, it's hollow in here.

On a day like today
I drink champagne from a straw
And I get my own way,
He chose me above them all
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
In a day like today. A day like today.

A day like today. A day like today...

Can anyone hear, it's hollow in here.

On a day like today
I drink champagne from a straw
And I get my own way,
He loves me above them all
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
On a day like today.

I drink champagne from a straw
And I get my own way,
He loves me above them all
And there's no such thing as poor little rich girls
On a day like today.

24 Hours lyrics - andrea corr

I see your eyes remember
You know the song
And I try to see your picture
But thats your song with somebody else

You know I love inside your head
Cos I can't be there
Your a mystery
Intriguing me ..breath?
And your eyes
Grow all big and sad

[Chorus:]
I'd stay awake all night
For 24 hours of your love
I'd lead a simple life
For 24 hours of your love

[Verse:]
I'm not the only one that loves you
Hey everyone does
You've got a map of your past
Engraved on your face
But your strange heart
Is the heart of a boy

You know I love inside your bed
And I wanna be there
You're not comfortable
You're volatile
But you sleep like
You've answered a prayer

[Chorus:]
I'd stay awake all night
For 24 hours of your love
I'd promise black was white
For 24 Hours of your love
I'd believe wrong was right
For 24 hours with your love
I'd lead a simple life
For 24 hours of your love
-24 hours of your love

[Solo]

Love

I'd stay awake all night
For 24 hours of your love -24 hours of your love
I'd believe wrong was right for 24 Hours of your love
24 hours of your love
I'd believe wrong was right
For 24 Hours of your love -24 hours of your love
I'd lead a simple life
For 24 hours of your love
24 hours of your love

Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da

This Is What It's All About lyrics - andrea corr

Is it any wonder
I'm higher than an angel
Our bodies, they're touching
And you've not yet woken

Your breath is like a feather
Caressing my neck
Your hands, they're whispers
Can't wait till they've spoken

Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about

I'm moving through the city
With my love blanket
My armour of memories
When moonlight met sunrise
I look at other people
Do they wear it too?
He's given me a secret
I don't wanna keep

Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about

Is it any wonder
We keep still and quiet
Pretending we've not woken
When moonlight meets sunrise
And linger in a halfsleep
Warm orange love light
Spilling through the curtains
On you by my side

Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about
Nobody told me baby
This is what it's all about

It's about you and me and love
You and me and love

It's about you and me and love
You and me and love

Take Me I'm Yours lyrics - andrea corr

I've come across the desert
To greet you with a smile
My camel looks so tired
It's hardly worth my while
To tell you of my travels
Across the golden east
I see your preparations
Invite me first to feast

Take me I'm yours
Because dreams are made of this
Forever there'll be
A heaven in your kiss

Amusing belly dancers
Distract me from my wine
Across tibetian mountains
Are memories of mine
I've stood some ghostly moments
With natives in the hills
Recorded here on paper
My chills and thrills and spills

Take me I'm yours
Because dreams are made of this
Forever there'll be
A heaven in your kiss

It's really been some welcome
You never seem to change
A grape to tempt your leisure
Romantic gestures strange
My eagle flies tomorrow
It's a game I treasure dear
To seek the helpless future
My love at last I'm here

Take me I'm yours
Because dreams are made of this
Forever there'll be
A heaven in your kiss

Stupidest Girl In The World lyrics - andrea corr

My life, just when it's going well I smash it all in pieces.
I'm like a magnet to the ground to everything that's creeping.

What am I doing back here,
I thought I'd finished with you,
But I'm starting again.
What am I gonna do now,
Who do you really love now
Getting broken again.

Your life and your covenant to lie that promise you'll be keeping, I'm sure.
I know your every gritty move, it wakes me when I'm sleeping.

What am I doing back here,
I thought I'd finished with you,
But I'm starting again.
What am I gonna do now,
Who do you really love now
Getting broken again.

These situations
Are my own creation,
A dark fascination,
I want to be small again.

I lose concentration,
You sense my vacation,
A prime invitation,
You're getting control again.

What am I doing back here,
I thought I'd finished with you
But I'm starting again.
What am I gonna do now,
Who do you really love now
Getting broken again.

Ideal World lyrics - andrea corr

Jeanie marries when she's 21,
Has a baby one year on
And every year that's the way that life goes.
Lost herself in domesticity,
A cleaning, feeding entity,
She can't recall what she was before.

In an ideal world kids would keep their rooms tidy,
In an ideal world he would be home from his work on time
And in the morning I could lay in.

Johnny signs his share of autographs,
For all the people he makes laugh
And he walks home to an empty flat.
Does his best to fight the slience,
Of late night TV vicadence(?)
He can't forget what he had before.

In an ideal world she would still think I'm funny,
In an ideal world she'd be waiting in bed for me,
And in the morning we could lay in...in an ideal world.

Molly's sitting in a waiting room,
The top doctor will see her soon,
In the body nature gave her.
Wonder if she'll ever wake up,
Wonder if she's better off,
Why can't she be what she was before?

In an ideal world he would still think I'm pretty,
In an ideal world he would only want to bed with me,
And in the morning we could lay in.

In an ideal world you would make a decision,
In an ideal world you'd be making a home for me.
And in the morning we could lay in.
Sunday mornings we could lay in.

Shame On You (To Keep My Love From Me) (Radio Edit) lyrics - andrea corr

You left me thinking what a bore
I'm always stuck inside
I've got a feeling there is more
Than I've been left behind
A lot of pain a lot of noise
That these four walls hide
Happy faces go to war.
And dance upon the mines

[Chorus]
Come join come join come join us
Your barely young come join us
Youd be a man come join come join us
You're big and strong come join us

You planted me in foreign ground
A pen within a hand
At least I am not on my own
In hell I have a friend
I know I find (innocence) ashamed?
It isn't my crusade
Dirty faces in a war
Asleep in open graves

Come join come join come join us
Your barely young come join us
You'll be a man come join come join us
Your big and strong come join us
Shame on you shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me-shame on you
Shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me
Shame on you shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me

Shame on you-close your eyes to see shame on you shame on you
Shame on you shame on you shame on you
To keep my love from me
When you close your eyes to see
You block your heart to me?
You changed his name to a number?
But he survives a child
