Warwick Avenue



When I get to Warwick Avenue
Meet me by the entrance of the tube
We can talk things over little time
But promise me you wont stand by the light

When I get to Warwick Avenue
Please draw the past and be true
Don’t say we’re okay
Just because I’m here
You hurt me bad but I wont shed a tear

I’m leaving you for the last time baby
You think you’re loving,
But you don’t love me
And I’ve been confused
Outta my mind lately
You think you’re loving,
But I want to be free, baby
You’ve hurt me.

When I get to Warwick Avenue
We’ll spend an hour but no more than two
Our only chance to speak once more
I showed you answers, now here’s the door

When I get to Warwick Avenue
I’ll tell baby there we’re through

Cause I’m leaving you for the last time baby
You think you’re loving,
But you don’t love me
And I’ve been confused
An outta my mind lately
You think you’re loving,
But you don’t love me
I want to be free, baby
You’ve hurt me.

All the days spent together
I wish for better,
And I didn’t want the train to come
Now it’s departed, I’m broken hearted
Seems like we never started
All those days spent together
When I wished for better
And I didn’t want the train to come.
No, no.

You think you’re loving
But you don’t love me
I want to be free, baby
You’ve hurt me
You don’t love me
I want to be free
Baby you’ve hurt me

Stepping Stone



Verse 1

I rememeber way back way back when
I said i never wanna see your face again
Cause you were loving yes you were loving somebody else
And i knew oh yes i knew i couldnt control myself
And now they bring you back into my life again
And so i put on a face just like your friends
But i think you know oh yes you know whats going on
Cause the feelings in me oh yes in me are burning strong

Chorus

But I will never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
Im standing upright on my own

Verse 2
You used call me up from time to time
And it would be so hard for me not to cross the line
The words of love lay on my lips just like a curse
And i knew oh yes i knew they'd only make it worse
And now you have the nerve to play along
Just like the mistro beats in your song
You get your kicks you get your kicks from playing me
And the less you give the more i want so foolishly

Chorus
But i will never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
Im standing upright on my own...

No i will never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
Im standing upright on my own

Never be your stepping stone
Take it all or leave me alone
I will never be your stepping stone
Im standing upright on my own

Rockferry



I'd move to Rockferry,
Tomorrow
And I'd build my house, baby
With sorrow

I'd leave my shadow,
To fall behind
And I wouldn't write to you
'cos I'm not that kind

The midnight trains are boarding
All wrap up 8s
I pich my load and i fill my truck
before its too late

I leave the stars to judge
my every move
I'm not going to think of you, oh
I'd get the blues

Theres no sleep on the journey
away from time
A bag of songs and a heavy heart
won't make me down

i'll give it all my strength and my mind
i'll make this decision with or without

I'd move to Rockferry,
Tomorrow
And I'd build my house, baby
With sorrow

I'd leave my shadow,
To fall behind
And i wouldn't write to you
'cos i'm not that kind
not that kind

Rockferry, not that kind (repeat)
(fading)

Distant Dreamer



Although you think I cope,
my head is filled with hope...
of some place other than here.

Although you think I smile,
inside all the while...
I'm wondering about my destiny.

I'm thinking about,
all the things,
I'd like to do in my life.

I'm a dreamer,
a distant dreamer,
dreaming for hope, from today.

Even when you see me frown,
my heart won't let me down,
because I know there's better things to come (Woah Yeah).

And when life gets tough,
I feel I've had enough,
I hold on to a distant star,

I'm thinking about,
all the things,
I'd like to do in my life...

I'm a dreamer,
A distant dreamer,
dreaming for hope from today.

I'm a dreamer,
A distant dreamer,
dreaming for hope from today.

Yeah, I'm a dreamer

Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...

I'm a dreamer,
a distant dreamer,
dreaming for hope from today,

Yeah i'm a dreamer...

Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...
Oooooooh...

I'm a dreamer

Hanging On Too Long



It was just my mistake
Thinking you cared
It was just my mistake
Thinking you'd be there
That you'd be by my side
And that you wouldn't lie
My mistake

It was just my false hope
Thinking we'd last, yeah
It was just my false hope
Forgot all your pests
All those girls you denied
Smashed up hearts hung out to dry

I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
But I beat 'em all
Hanging on too long

I was a fool for you
Right from the start, yeah
I was a fool for you
Hoping for a spark
For some kind of sign
That you would be mine

I know it's wrong, I do
Hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long

My heart was clutching
To one fair right
My head was pumping
It could put up a fight

I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
And I need to move on
I'm hanging on too long

I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong
Hanging on too long

Syrup and Honey



Don’t you being wasting all your money
On syrup and honey
Because I’m so eaten up
Don’t you be using every minute
On making a living
Because we got our love
Listen to me, 1,2,3
Baby, baby, baby spend your time on me

Don’t you be out all night long
Leaving me all alone
Because I, I need your love
Don’t you be spending everyday working away
Because I’m waiting for you
Listen to me, 1,2,3
Baby, baby, baby spend your time on me

Spend it, spend it, spend your time on me
Please baby
Mmmm
Please baby

Serious



Serious x 2

I’m a trophy on your arm,
You wear me like a charm,
Yes you do.
An accessory that suits,
Your new suede boots,
ohhh

I get a feeling deep down, inside,
Something just aint right.
I get a feeling that tells me I know,
Baby you never show…

How you really feel for me
Tell me, can we ever be,
Serious? Serious in love?

A joke on my expense,
In front of all your friends,
All the time.
A game you like to play,
Leaves me solo,
every day.

I get a feeling deep down inside,
Something just aint right.
I get a feeling that tells me I know,
Baby you never show…

How you really feel for me
Tell me can we ever be,
Serious? Serious in love?

Serious? Serious in Love?

I get a feeling deep down inside ,
That something just ain’t right.
I get a feeling that tells me I know,
Baby you never show…

How you really feel for me,
Tell me, can we ever be, tell me,
Serious? Serious in love?

Serious,
So Serious
Serious
So Serious
Break it down
Serious
Break it down
Serious
Baby
Serious (into fade)

Duffy - "I'm scared"

The blank pages of my diary,
That I haven't touched since you left me,
The closed blinds in my home
See no light of day.
Dust gathers on my stereo
Cos I can't bare to hear the radio
The piano sits in a shaded space
With a picture of your face.

I'm scared to face another day
Cos the fear in me just won't go away.
In an instant, you were gone and I'm scared.

Coffee stains on your favorite book
Remind me of you so I can't take a look.
The magazines you left on the floor,
You won't need them anymore.

A towel left hangin on the wall,
No sign of wet foosteps in the hall
There's no smell of your sweet cologne.
I'm lying here alone.

I'm scared to face another day
Cos the fear in me just won't go away.
In an instant, you were gone and now I'm scared.

I'm scared to face another day
Cos the fear in me just won't go away.
In an instant, you were gone, now I'm scared.
In an instant you were gone and I'm scared.

Duffy - "Delayed devotion"

It seems you wanna give me,
Oh a life time of security
Down on your dying knees
I watch you babe I watch you please

But your words come much too late,
My love for you has turned to hate

Cuz you've taken too much time,
To show me that your mine,

When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that wont stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town
where somebodys gonna talk to you,
You just let me wait now its too late
For your delayed delayed devotion

You try to convince me
Oh about the possabilities
But I know that all your poetry
Just comes from insecurity

Cuz your actions speak nothing no more
When Its what Ive been waiting for

Cuz you've taken too much time,
To show me that your mine,

When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that wont stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town
where somebodys gonna talk to you,
You just let me wait now its too late
For your delayed delayed devotion

You played me for a fool, for too long
Blinded by your lies I never saw your all
Im no longer under your spell
Here it in a song You can go to hell

When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that wont stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town
where somebodys gonna talk to you,
You just let me wait now its too late
For your delayed delayed emotion

Duffy - "Rain on your parade"

I wish you well
I hope you survive
I hope you live, oh baby, so I can watch you cry.

'Cause I know in time you'll see what you did to me
And you'll come running back.

I'm gonna rain on your parade
No, I won't take it again
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

I'm gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won't take it again.
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

I pity the fools who believe in you
'Cause I know someday now, they'll see your colours too.
And if you see a smile, besides my face, know I'm doing good now.
Since you've been erased.

'Cause I know in time you'll see what you did to me
And you'll come running back.

I'm gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won't take it again.
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

I'm gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won't take it again.
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

I'm gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won't take it again.
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

I'm gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won't take it again.
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

I'm gonna rain on your parade.
No, I won't take it again.
And I'll keep raining, raining, raining over you.

Duffy - "Stop"

Treading down the street
I've got the vibe in my feet
I'm feeling angry (angry)
Thoughts of what you said
Are spinnig round in my head
I'm feeling confused (confused)
I'm lovin' life right now
But you're draging me down
I don't know what to do
But say it to you

Chorus

Stop
Just what you're doin' to me
You drive me mad
Now baby, why can't you see
That I'm sad
You spin me round
And you make me dizzy

Sitting with my friends
I wait by the phone
I'm gonna give you (give you)
A piece of my mind

Someone told you (told you)
You're acting like a child
And it's driving me wild
I don't know what to do
But to say it to you

Chorus

Stop
Just what you're doin' to me
You drive me mad
Now baby, why can't you see
That I'm sad
You spin me round
And you make me dizzy

Stop
Just what you're doin' to me
You drive me mad
Now baby, why can't you see
That I'm sad
You spin me round
And you make me dizzy

You better stop
You better stop
You better stop
Boy, you better stop

Duffy - "Fool for you"

Is this something
On your mind?
What do you
Try to hide?
I can't seem
No i can't seem
To get a hold on you

Sitting on the bench
You will think
We are just friends
Cuz there's no lies
There's no lies
That's with us two

What more can i give?
What more can i say?
Cuz i can't make you
Love me anyway

Oh maybe
I'm not the one
Oh maybe
I'm too young
But for reasons
Why i can't deny
I'm a fool for you
Fool for you

Who are you
Talking to?
Is she in love
With you?
I can see
And i can feel
You're thinking
Of her again

Lying by your side
You would turn
To it's eyes
Oh
Where is the sense?
Where is the sense
In living
With pretence?

What more can i give?
What more can i say?
I can't make you
Love me anyway

Oh maybe
I'm not the one
Oh maybe
I'm too young
But for reasons
Why i can't deny
I'm a fool for you
Fool for you
Fool for you

Oh maybe
I'm not the one
Oh maybe
I'm too young
But for reasons why
I can't deny
I'm a fool for you
Fool for you
I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you

Duffy - "Oh boy"

Oh boy,
If you ever have to let me down
In this world,
My life surely
Would be upside down

If you ever find,
That your peace of mind,
Is shattered in so many ways and
I find my feet
Down on lonely street,
I'll be stood there waiting for you
Boy you got me.

Oh yeah,
Let me look into your deep brown eyes,
Let me share,
Every moment
Every sweet surprise.

See that I have grown
And need mercy shown,
There's a window to my heart,
If I find my feet
Down on lonely street,
I'll be stood there waiting for you,

Boy, you've got me
High
Boy, you've got me
High.
Boy, you've got me
High
Boy, you've got me
High

But if I find my feet
Down on lonely street
I'll be stood there waiting for you
Boy you've got me.

Duffy - "Please stay"

If I got on my knees
And I pleaded with you
Not to go
But to stay in my arms
Would you walk out the door
Like you did once before

This time be different
Please stay don't go

If I call out your name
Like a prayer
Would you leave me alone
With my tears
Knowing I need you so
Would you still
Turn and go

This time be different
Please stay
Don't go please stay

I loved you before
I even knew your name
I wanted to give you
My heart
But when you came back
After leaving me one time
Oh, I knew, yes I knew
That the heartaches
Would start

If I called out
Your name like a song
That was written for you
You alone
Would you still
Hurt my pride
Oh, hey, how I cried

This time be different
Please stay

Oh, this time
Be different in some way
Don't go please stay
You know
I'll always love you
Darling
Please stay

Duffy - "Breaking my own heart"

I rushed right in
Just like a fool
So struck down by you
I didn't know what to do

I started on
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart
Yeah

I started on
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart

Yeah, I was frozen
By the pain
I tried
To reach out to you
But I felt so ashamed

So, I kept on
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart

I kept on
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart

Save me
Somebody save me
From this misery
Love is killing me
Please save me

I need saving
Won't somebody save me
From this misery
Love is killing me
Ooo, save me

I hung on
To every word you say
In search of a sign boy
You felt the same way

But it was only me
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart

If I keep on
Breaking my own heart
Breaking my own heart

Save me
Won't somebody save me
From this misery
Love is killing me
Save me

I need saving
Won't somebody save me
From this misery
Love is killing me
Ooo, save me

Ooh Save
I said Save me
From this misery
Love is killing me
Please save me

Duffy - "Enough love"


What makes gold look like rust

What turns diamonds into dust

Like oxygen to you and me

We need it more than the air we breathe

Too much push and shove

Without enough love to go round



There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love love love



What hurts but feels so fine

What turns water in wine

It runs so deep in you and me

From a fountain to a river to the seven seas

Too much push and shove

Without enough love to go round

I finally found



There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love love love



Woohoo



There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love

Woohoo

There must be enough love

To go round the world

There must be enough love around the world
