I hate where I'm living but I've lived here all my life,
Waiting for a dime, an opportunity, 
To make it outta here,

Ever since I was a young boy,
I learned to cross the road,
And wander far from here,
Up and down the hills and far out to the tide

Galloway Street

We don't have to cry or even know the reasons why,
But sometimes you gotta say goodbye just so that you can smile again,

I never did wanna be blind but your love was so easy to find,
But sometimes you gotta look behind just so that you can see again,

I'll stay away from you,
If that's what you want me to do,
Just know I'll always be there for you whenever you're feeling blue,

We Don't Have To Cry

We Dont Have To Cry

Spring is coming round but my winters a-coming in fast,
Cause you only love me in the quiet darling and I know you're past your best,
My hands hurt from strumming on guitar chords,
My nails are bitten down to the bone,
If you want me to release you girl,
You can be sure you're on your own,

You had a hold on me and you wouldn't let me go,
I wanted to feel your squeeze but was i right to I don't know,

Can I come around by your place?,
We can drink and sing songs all night,,
I might be a bit loose with the measures darling,
But I'm sure we'll turn out alright,
Let's raise a glass for the banter and the tonic wine,
Raise a glass for the moments we've shared,
Raise a glass for the man who brought us here as he is really not aware,

You had a hold on me,
And you wouldn't let me go,
I wanted to feel your squeeze but was I right to I don't know,

Maybe you're lying in the dirt or maybe I'm dressed in white,
Maybe I'm just a pawn and maybe you're a queen or I'm a slave to these thoughts of mine,
You sure make me think that you care a lot but leave me blue half of the time,
You leave me blue,

Look at all the flowers in the yard dear,
Now can you see they all grow for you,
Are you gonna slip away through the dafodils or love me just like I love you,

You had a hold on me and you wouldn't let me go,
I wanted to feel your squeeze but was I right to I don't know,

Spring is coming round but my winters a-coming in fast,
Cause you only love me in the quiet darling and I know you're past your best,
Even though it's been a long time since you were knocked right off of your throne,
Well maybe I should release you girl but I'll let you have it out alone,

You had a hold on me and you left me feeling so satisfied,
Now can I come round by yours and sing songs all night,
We might get a little drunk but it'll be alright,
You know its bound to be alright,
Cause you had a hold on me and you would not let me go,
I wanted to feel your squeeze but was I right to I don't know,

Was I Right To



Was I Right To

I'm sorry my friend but you're not losing it,
I could have been mistaken but I'd say you're confusing it with love,
I could have been wrong but you're confusing it with love,

I'm sorry my friend you've done more than we thought you could,
Pity you never left her my friend when you said you would change ways,
You never left her when you said you would change ways,

And now I see,
That you and she,
Are counting your days,
But I hope you see,
That you and we,
Have got our parts to play,

You and We

You And We

Things are looking better everyday,
With fuck all on our resumes', 
If we can keep this going all work and no play,
We might just be in line for a holiday,

Things are looking up for us all of the time,
Good thing we ain't to bad at half arsing a rhyme,
Now is that a crime, well in the meantime,
I'll stick to a pen and paper,

All I really wanna do for now is have a little jam with you guys,
All I'm trying to make you see is that I'm alright in your eyes,
Most of the time you's don't let me in,
Unless you've had one too many gin and tonic,
Now while you're on it wont you please buy in another round,

We've got people digging us but we're not sure why,
They must have us mistaken with some other guys,
You think you're into something mate, well my oh my,
You can have a shot of glory, go on give it try,

Give me half a chance and trust me lose or win, 
All I need is half a glance to wipe the smirk off your grin,
Leave the front door locked and they wont know where to begin,
The screws might even kick your door in,

Spend half your life with your head in a book,
And you still feel like your disappointing,
You've only realised now what it took 
To keep your head from disjointing,
If you read up on your history well,
I'm sure you'll be more than aware of what it's taken for this man to receive his degree,
Life's a mystery and it always has been to me,

Well My Oh My 

Well My Oh My

So safe it was almost dangerous,
But people won't keep talking about us,
They're trying to bring me down,
But I wont get up and leave town,
So they chase me round the garden with a flaming torch,
For messing with their daughters on their front porch,

Cause I tell her everything she knows,
But her daddy turns around to me and says no,
When she needs a shoulder to cry on,
She won't expect me to turn up on her lawn,
Saying everything's a gonna be ok,
Baby I'm a movin', Im a movin today,

I'm a movin', I'm a movin' so fast,
Better keep up, if you ain't first you're last,
You're a movin', you're a movin' so slow,
So far ahead I ain't got long to go.
