DON'T YOU THINK IT'S TIME
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
Don’t you think it’s time
Time to start a new
Time for changing views
Time for making up your mind
Don’t you think it’s time
Time for moving on
Time for growing strong
Time to leave the past behind
You’ve been on my mind
Oh you’ve been on my mind
You’ve been on my mind
Oh you’ve been on my mind
Don’t you think it’s time
Time for quelling fear
Time for a new year
Time for meaning what you say
Don’t you think it’s time
Time for easing doubt
Time for reaching out
Time to open up your eyes
You’ve been on my mind
Oh you’ve been on my mind
You’ve been on my mind
Oh you’ve been on my mind
Don’t you think it’s time
Time for trusting more
Without keeping score
Time to let forgiveness out
Don’t you think it’s time
Time for showing grace
Time for having faith
Time to make more of your time
You’ve been on my mind
Oh you’ve been on my mind
You’ve been on my mind
Oh you’ve been on my mind
FRIEND LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
You are my friend
I always thought we were invincible
But I can’t pretend
That something strange aint come between us now
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
But do you?
You are my mate
For years they said we were inseparable
But I can’t relate
Cos lately we’ve been going differently
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
But do you?
And it’s true everybody knows
People come and people go
You mean much more to me
I don’t want one of those to be you
But I really don’t know what I can do
I believe in love
But do you?
You are my friend
We’ve always had an understanding yeah
I can’t comprehend
How we’re now talking different languages
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
But do you?
And it’s true everybody knows
People come and people go
You mean much more to me
I don’t one of those to be you
But I really don’t know what I can do
I believe in making up
I believe in making up
I believe in making up
But do you?
NOWHERE WITHOUT YOU LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
I make a miserable D.J. getting drunk, playing records up late
Wearing out a hole in my heart on the couch from when you went away
Today wrote out a prescription leave all calls to the answering machine
I don’t remember anything but I know that you know where I’ve been
Where would I go?
What would I do?
I would be nowhere with out you
Now I know heavens above you I can grow
I just can’t make it on my own
Watching terrible T.V it’s ok all our secrets we keep
I used to dream of broken teeth now I lie awake watching you sleep
If I’m so independent why when you leave am I digging up holes
To hide and wait til you come back like a bad actor between roles
Where would I go?
What would I do?
I would be nowhere without you
Now I know heavens above you I can grow
I just can’t make it on my own
Good morning baby it’s raining outside
But we’ve got all day and the suns in your eyes
Frisky on whisky we’re champagne and wine
Drinking in, sinking in love
Where we’ll go I gloriously don’t know
I’m nowhere without you
(now I know)
Heaven’s above you
(I can grow)
SADNESS & WHISKEY LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
I don’t want to be a lone guy anymore
Now I’ve found a love my lifes worth living for
Never going back to god knows where I’ve been
That’s a dying scene
I don’t want to be that sentimental guy
Always dreaming of the years that passed him by
All the time forgetting what he holds on to
And for me it’s you
That’s why I’m hanging up my boots
This time you know it’s true
Do you remember ‘bout the time when we first met
How were we to ever know what to expect
Looking back at all the crazy crazy times
Wishing you were mine
Now I’m sitting on the front step of our house
Just awaiting you to drive your car around
If I didn’t stink of sadness and whisky
Could you marry me?
Cos this is where I’ll always be
Come home and you will see
Oh my love
Oh my love
Oh my love
Now I’m sitting on the front step of our house
Just awaiting you to turn your car around
If I didn’t stink of sadness and whisky
Could you marry me?
Cos you are where I’ll always be
Come home and you will see
FLAME LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
Hardly spoke a word all night
‘Cept to tell me that you were alright
Don’t worry
Sitting holding up the bar
Going out just aint no fun no more
I’m sorry
But you, you’re not to blame
No you, you’re not to blame
You’ve just spent so long holding on
You’ve just spent so long holding on to a flame
Told me you were going home
I asked if you wanted to be alone
I’ll come
Grabbed my jacket, told my friends
I was leaving, when I turned around
You were gone
But you, you’re not the one to blame
No you, you’re not the one to blame
You’ve just spent so long holding on
You’ve just spent so long holding on
You’ve just spent so long holding on to a flame
DONT' WALK ALONE LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
He’s the number one man in his community
He’s got credibility and folks all know his name
Running round the clock he’s working for the family
Starting up a dynasty down in history
But all I know for sure is how love can grow
So don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
Starting up at eight checking that the factory
Is making lots of money he’s got so much to lose
Going through the books working up an inventory
Dotting I’s and crossing T’s for his well oiled machine
But all I know for sure is how love can grow
So don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
‘Cos all I know for sure is how love can grow
So don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
Never breaks the rules defying the economy
He’s buying lots of property to mark his territory
Still he finds time to pop in to the P & C
Chair the whole committee and drink a cup of tea
But all I know for sure is how love can grow
So don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
Cos all I know for sure is how love can grow
So don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
But lying awake at night something just don’t feel right
It’s like he’s let somebody down
He can’t figure it out he’s done everything right
Still he’s let somebody down
When he leaves in the morning please don’t give up on him
He’ll try not to let you down
All I know for sure is our love can grow
So don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
All I know for sure is our love can grow
Don’t walk alone
Don’t walk alone
ROCKS IN MY HEAD LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
I’m such a loser man
I’ve been away from you so long
Now you’re on my mind
Forgetting how to talk
I’ve been refusing you so long
Are you still on my side?
Worse than all the worst things that I’ve done
Are the things that I said
I nearly lost you there I must have
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
I’m such a dreamer girl
I just don’t get myself sometimes
But here I am for real
I can’t go on if I don’t know
That you’re on my side
Worse than all the worst things that I’ve done
Are the things that I said
I nearly lost you there I must have
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
Oh no!
You could run a mile could lose your head
I won’t make the same mistakes again
Can’t believe I nearly lost you
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
That’s the way it feels
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
Rocks in my head
Oh no
Friend
You are my friend
I always thought we were invincible
But I can’t pretend
That something strange aint come between us now
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
But do you?
You are my mate
For years they said we were inseparable
But I can’t relate
Cos lately we’ve been going differently
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
But do you?
And it’s true everybody knows
People come and people go
You mean much more to me
I don’t want one of those to be you
But I really don’t know what I can do
I believe in love
But do you?
You are my friend
We’ve always had an understanding yeah
I can’t comprehend
How we’re now talking different languages
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
But do you?
And it’s true everybody knows
People come and people go
You mean much more to me
I don’t one of those to be you
But I really don’t know what I can do
I believe in making up
I believe in making up
I believe in making up
But do you?
THE GREAT UNKNOWN LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
Tonight I wish I was the moon
It always knows just what to do cos every times the same old song
Dancing round this sleeping earth all night long
Wandering past the mirrors gaze
Noticing I aint shaved for days asks "just what the hell have you been up to?"
"Haven’t you a place to be? Someone who needs you?"
Hold me now promise you won’t let me go
Through the memories and beyond the great unknown
Hold me now promise you won’t let me go
Cos I just can’t stand the thought of losing you
Losing you
Guess I’m stuck in the rain again
Guess I’m stuck in the rain
Guess I’m stuck in the rain again
Guess I’m stuck in the rain
Tryin’ to get lost in the night
I’m shown up by those damn street lights as if under interrogation
Seems everyone’s looking for an explanation
Walk in to an ezy plus
The guy behind the counters suss
I haven’t done anything wrong
Just haven’t known what to look for in so long
Hold me now promise you won’t let me go
Through the memories and beyond the great unknown
Hold me now promise you won’t let me go
Cos I just can’t stand the thought of losing you
Losing you
Guess I’m stuck in the rain again
Guess I’m stuck in the rain
Guess I’m stuck in the rain again
Guess I’m stuck in the rain
COMIN' AROUND LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
Yesterday I felt so down but now I’m coming around
Felt like throwing in the towel but now I’m coming around
Bumped in to my drug dealer and now I’m coming around
Yesterday I felt so down but now I’m coming around
Sometimes I just need my baby to keep me on the level
Sometimes I just lose my faith won’t you stay with me forever
I had a feeling that I couldn’t shake but you blew it off the radar
I’ll be holding on to you
Yesterday I felt so down but now I’m coming around
Felt like throwing in the towel but now I’m coming around
Sometimes I just need my baby to keep me on the level
Sometimes I just lose my faith won’t you stay with me forever
I had a feeling that I couldn’t shake but you blew it off the radar
I’ll be holding on to you
Yesterday I felt so down but now I’m coming around
Felt like throwing in the towel but now I’m coming around
Bumped in to my drug dealer and now I’m coming around
Yesterday I felt so down but now I’m coming around
Sometimes I just need my baby to keep me on the level
Sometimes I just lose my faith won’t you stay with me forever
I had a feeling that I couldn’t shake but you blew it off the radar
I’ll be holding on to you
BATTLE OF 2004 LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
In the year of 2004
We were sent to end a bitter score
Not knowing the purpose of the war
Buoyed by our nations pride
We battled on inspired
Believing we were admired
But the enemy was all around
Now my instruments are shutting down
On my radio your voice I found
Now it’s the only sound
I’m hurtling to the ground
Don’t leave me alone ‘cos I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Don’t leave me alone ‘cos I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Now my life is coming to an end
As I’m running out of oxygen
And you stranger are my only friend
Tell your people not to make
The same mistakes that we made
Don’t leave me alone ‘cos I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Don’t leave me alone ‘cos I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Don’t leave me alone ‘cos I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Don’t leave me alone ‘cos I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
Yeah I’m coming down
DARLIN' WON'T YOU COME? LYRICS
ALBUM: SUBURBAN SONGBOOK, 2006
Darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
I’ve rubbed off my palms and I’ve worn out my knees
And I don’t feel this place holds a lot for me
So darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
Darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
It’s hard finding hope when you’re lost at sea
And I want to belong but I’d rather be free
So darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
I was dumb I was foolin’ around
Always searching for something I’d found
Now I know I could die and I’d be happy
So darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
Darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
I’ve burnt every bridge and I’ve walked every street
And I’ve started to question what happiness means
So darlin won’t you come run away with me
I was dumb I was foolin’ around
Always searching for something I’d found
Now I know I could die and I’d be happy
So darlin’ won’t you come run away with me
Darlin’ won’t you come and retire with me
I’m done with this crowd and I’m done with this scene
And you’re the only one who believes in me
So darlin’ won’t you come and retire with me
