As you sip your morning coffee
Or tuck into your toast
Remember all the good things
And those you love the most
Cos this could be your last day
For giving up the ghost

So we'll celebrate you madly and sing to Elton John
The bottle looks quite empty as we
Celebrate your gone
Now your 6ft under
We'll sing to you your song
We'll ...sing.. to you your song  

You could fall out a window
From way up in the sky
Walk into a plank thats there
Drops you like a fly
I'll bet your just not thinking as
It drives you of the edge
The devil an the deep blue sky are
Really quite impressed


So we'll celebrate you madly and sing to Elton John
The bottle looks quite empty as we
Celebrate your gone
Now your 6ft under
We'll sing to you your song
We'll ...sing... to you your song  

A look into the heaven's
Or is this living hell
To wondered all this fuss round here
It's hotter and you smell
So welcome to the place I love
Welcome to our world
Welcome to this place called earth
Welcome to my hell  
Welcome to my hell..

As the sun rises and the clouds clear from my mind
Come back my lover
Come back my way
Don't forget what we loved for
Please oh please do stay

The glasses full on empty all hope now washed away
I need you here beside me
I want you every day
Come back my lover
Come on back my way

I wish a new horizon in one we holding hands
Come back my lover
Come back my way
Don't forget what we loved for
Please oh please do stay

Four weeks and still I'm waiting our time is nearly up
My love for you is fading
I drink another cup
Come back my lover
Come back oh please I pray

A sigh of sadness leaves me I'm on another stage
Please call me in the morning
My love for you is grey

Come back my lover
Come back my way
Don't forget what we loved for
Please oh please do stay

Everyday they attach to us
They define our looks
Make our worth
Show our importance in this world
Yet what do they mean
They mean you follow

We follow whether we like it or not
The ***** on the street to the presidents men
Be it a fine wine or the cheapest ale
The label is always on show
Always there to prove your worth
Always there to show you follow

I don't like labels
My mind has a different kink
Yet everyday I follow just like you
Everyday I wallow in my shame
For being just a label

A label of sadness
A label for taxing
A label in age

And as my chuckle becomes a laughter
I feel that once again the label wins
As you read these lines
As you gather your thoughts
A new label is formed
For me
So it continues

Alas they returned
The faces of the silent
For they had been so very quiet for many a year
Hidden yet on view
Waiting for me to stare
A look in that special way

I'd seen him in the carpet
Just a face
Silent
Quiet
Just a face
Looking lost
My spine gave a tingle

I never know what they want
They never speak
Nor shout
Or leap out
Silent yet they be
Still a shiver scares my soul

You can see them too
If you want
Just take a look
They could be in your curtains
Or staring from your wall
The faces of our passing
Ghosts from time before

She
The bed lays cold under your heart
White sheets adorn the lifeless room
Yet the sorrow in your look
That lovingness from those black sparkling eyes
Shivers the soul

Still you wait the return
The day to turn to a burning russet red
Where all rules are broken
For she who controls the past controls ..
The future

This afternoon all clocks went wrong

This afternoon the clocks suddenly stopped
My father had died
I watched his vision fade
I held his last breath

My heart cried for just one more moment
One more word
One more squeeze from his cold pale
Hand  

The house became silent
Only the tears of my broken mind
Falling
Gushing
Deafening
My thoughts of a cold empty world
I knew was my place  
Life was over

The weeks passed as minutes
The months as seconds
My days now blurred to a
Fuel filled haze of sorrow
Washed in alcohol that never cured
The hurt

This afternoon all clocks went wrong

And my inner flower blossomed
My world became afresh
My purpose was all to see
It was my time to be a father

My time to show my son
My time for love
To care
My time to show him
Life  
My time to show the lessons
A time for life
Begun

Alas the corner nears its bitter end
My wait is near complete
Twenty years have been
Waiting

My sunshine wakes
To eyes that love you more
My sunshine wakes
I love you
Love me all....!!!!!!!!!


I wait for your breath to fall
In my labyrinth of love
Touch my skin
Feel my heat burn you up
Wanting

My sunshine wakes
To eyes that love you more
My sunshine wakes
I love you
Love me all....!!!!!!!!!

Gold is the ring that holds us tight
A wish
Our love
A feeling Right

My sunshine wakes
To eyes that love you more
My sunshine wakes
I love you
Love me all....!!!!!!!!!
