We lay with animals because the city doesn't know us, the city doesn't know us
We scare ourselves away doing what other people do

This is a getaway, a life we share with enemies
We hold less time for listening
An eye for awful wondering

Come now, the crocked and the elephant
The city doesn't know us, these dreamers always show up
Dream big, we're animals
We do it slow or do it over

This is a getaway, a life we share with enemies
We hold less time for listening
An eye for awful wondering
An eye for saying sorry but

We always lose
Even when we win they're doubting you
We always lose
Even when we win they're doubting you

Be still, this memory is temporary
Restart this heart, I want it to feel whole again

This is a getaway, a life we share with enemies
We hold less time for listening
An eye for awful wondering
An eye for saying sorry but

We always lose
Even when we win they're doubting you
We always lose
Even when we win they're doubting you

We always lose
Even when we win they're doubting you
We always lose
Even when we win they're doubting you so don't be sorry you are you
They say that dreamers are believers, carry on, don't fall and you will see the end is not the end its just the end abusing you
Say sorry

We Always Lose

"Our Ship has Sailed"

Here's the first single off my new album Love Songs For Broadway--available May 12th.

Here are the lyrics below:

Verse 1
You could be a vision of an angel sleeping,
In someone else's bed
Waiting for the sun to find another day
I'm thinking about the things that you said.

Chorus

Our ship has sailed 
My  boat is sinking
Our ship  has sailed
Now we're going home

Verse 2

People are just people
Until you get to know them 
If you jump you know you just might fall
When will we learn?
Will we finally know that,
Love is the reason for it all 

Chorus

Mid section:
Now  I can't  get  you out of my head.
Stop thinking about the things that you said.
I want to see the world from the edge of your bed.
The edge of your bed.

Verse 3

Let's send a message to the Unknown faces
Send a message back home
Send a message to the hard to reach places
Sail into the great unknown 

Chorus  

End

Love Songs For Broadway

Our Ship Has Sailed

With their 30th anniversary looming next year and major live dates to be announced for later this year ‘In Tua Nua’ are releasing this self financed single. Cult lead singer ‘Leslie Dowdall’, singing drummer ‘Paul Byrne’ and legendary bassist/guitarist ‘Jack Dublin’ went into the studio last year and re-recorded ‘All I Wanted’. Enlisting Conn Woolridge  on Violin and Derek Cronin on Hammond Organ, the track was recorded and mixed by Conor Brady and produced by the band at Phonic Studios, Dublin.
With their back catalogue of recordings still owned by their previous record labels Island and Virgin, the band wanted to record something that they would own themselves. Penned by Byrne, Dublin and Martin Clancy, ‘All I Wanted’ was In Tua Nua’s most successful single, reaching number 69 in the 1988 UK charts while becoming a radio hit all across the US on college radio stations. 
The band toured extensively throughout Europe and the US during the 1980's promoting their albums "Vaudeville" and "The Long Acre". One of Ireland's premier live acts, they shared stages with Bob Dylan (Slane),  Fleetwood Mac, and Eurythmics to name but a few while also touring with both U2 and Simple Minds before breaking up in 1989. They reformed for some gigs in 2004 and since then Leslie has toured both as a solo artist and with a band, while Paul and Jack who first played together as rhythm section for Deaf Actor in 1980 have recently been banging out beats for Rocky de Valera and The Gravediggers, The Guilty Party and Shane McGowan and The Shane Gang.
