Ka whakahuia ano
He tangi wai
Ko wai tenei
Whakarongo kit e ata
Karanga o nga tui
Korero ki au
Ko rangi tenei
Whakarongo kit e tangi
He mokimoki au kia koe
Ka whakahuia ano
In the morning
All this conversation has lifted my spirits
I will go to the park to make up my own mind
Silly, silly future it sits inside my spine
It will make a family resolved in your own kind
All I ever wanted is to be near a face
In the morning , in the morning
After the operation my heart will become erased
And I will miss you, I will miss you
Bleed, bleed, bleed, bleed, that’s all I ever do
A built in sunroom for everyone to frame
I’m so lucky to have a great career
But after all the fuss I just wanted to have you
All I ever wanted is to be near a face
In the morning , in the morning
After the operation my heart will become erased
And I will miss you, I will miss you
I haven’t thought enough to cry
No I haven’t thought enough to cry
Lies in this land
I live in a land of hot water
I live in a land of smiles
I live in a land of perfect sunsets
This land I live lies in this land
But what about this thing we wrote this thing we wrote we made
The cost of life the human toll the cost of human lives that we betrayed
I live in a subtle differences
So I can smoke my pipe on my estate
Don’t worry brother I’ll get you of your cell
Your future meets your pride that’s all that remains
But what about this thing we wrote this thing we wrote we made
The cost of life the human toll the cost of human lives that we betrayed
I live in this land you frown upon
I live in this land of hot sand
I live in this land of wrong
This land I live lies in this land
This land I live lies in this land
But what about this thing we wrote this thing we wrote we made
The cost of life the human toll the cost of human lives that we betrayed
Picture me in the 70’s
Can you picture me in the 70’s, a buttercup
I’d be floating in the crowd with voices
Time is on me, makeup mirrors my dream
Can you picture me in the 70’s, in a white laced dress
I’d be listening to the stories that made you famous
Time is on my side, picture me in the 70’s
And you’d sail away, and you’d hide in your field of gold
Your computer has made love to my soul
And your first class women, when her eyes make you feel so whole
Shake her off me, shake her off me.
Shake her off me.
Can you picture me in the 70’s, but I woke up to late
Time is running out for you and me and you and me.
Stolen hill
Throw out all my thoughts, that’s all I want to do
Theres things I want to say to you
I look up at the sky and close my eyes, and think of you
I’ve met noone like you before
I think I love you
And theres nothing I could want more
I think I love you
I feel happier today, I feel okay
Breathe in your sigh
I look up where you stand, and leave this land
You make me fly
Theres things that we both know
Cant let eachother go
I’ve met noone like you before
I think I love you
And theres nothing I could want more
I think I love you
And to save you for something
You could watch me die and love this world without me on this stolen hill
I would multiply into a thousand words
And through your heart I’d come back to you and tell you to move on
Move on
Move on
Move on
Move on
I’ve met noone like you before
I think I love you
And theres nothing I could want more
I think I love you
Broken man
And all around they have an answer for everything
But they can’t bring us closer to our heritage
And we live on the edge of our rural postage
It’s a cry for help it’s done it’s the damage
You’re a broken man
Come from a broken home
You deserve much more
Than a piece of none
And If they catch our kind they’ll tie us down
And leave only the food of the poorest man
To lead a fruitful life exist for favours
I understand that’s it’s the field of your creators
You’re a broken man
Come from a broken home
You deserve much more
Than a piece of none
And I will stop the world from spinning
I will sew your seeds,will mend the fields
And I will take you into my house, we can run around with our tea cosies on
Broken man, from a broken home
You deserve much more than a piece of none
You’re a broken man , come from a broken home
You deserve much more than a piece of none
Loving you
I won’t stop loving you
I won’t stop loving you
As the sea falls, watch the moon rise
I won’t be around when I’m old
But that won’t stop me from loving you
I won’t stop loving you
Cos you give me all your love
As the moon falls, we watch it fall into the sea
And then the day grows cold
But that won’t stop me from loving you
I write this song for you
Cos you let me into your heart of hearts
You take, I give, you give ,I take
No I won’t let this one be a mistake
I won’t stop loving you
I won’t stop loving you
As the sea falls, watch the moon rise
I won’t be around when I’m old
But that won’t stop me from loving you
Annie goes to sleep
Whos that smiling over a tale
We need our eyes to loosen our sail
I have dreams that darken your mind
And for a while my heart will never lie
Annie goes to sleep
For all the mornings that sweep in with you
I saviour them and lean on them too
Cos in the morning that’s when I’m certain
That I love you
It’s a dream to be, becoming sweet
Don’t worry your face, I’m singing for you
Never mind the dust won’t make you delay
Send it away, I’m singing for you
Keep on talking, give me a moment
Let’s make a plan to live on an island
Cos I’ve been thinking this through and through
It’s crazy islands that make up you
Annie goes to sleep with a man on her mind
Rough housing all the sheets that contain her
It’s a dream to be, becoming sweet
Don’t worry your face, I’m singing for you
Never mind the dust won’t make you delay
Send it away, I’m singing for you
I have only confessions
I believe in my heart
And to live on your island
Would be crazy
It’s a dream to be, becoming sweet
Don’t worry your face, I’m singing for you
Never mind the dust won’t make you delay
Send it away, I’m singing for you
Wrestled with your angels
Your words get me under
you like shooting me in the heart
I’m more than a child with no worries
I’m underestimated
What keeps me breathing
Cos I want the world to know
That so many times
I’ve wrestled with your angels
And it seems like they’re not moving anywhere
I’ve wrestled with your angels
And I don’t believe in angels no more
See me don’t leave me alone
And you say i could sing
You to sleep
We could dance, I could love you evermore
And I know, what is spent
Isn’t lost, I believe you’ll come around before too long
What keeps me breathing
Cos I want the world to know
That so many times
I’ve wrestled with your angels
And it seems like they’re not moving anywhere
I’ve wrestled with your angels
And I don’t believe in angels no more
Society
Once again I am paralysed with fear
Stolen wonder whats in there
She goes down
I am a fool
It’s society
In the days of love you are more for me
You keep me awake with your eyes
And never again will I lose a friend
It’s society
All I wanted was to sweep her
All I wanted was to sweep her
Once again I am paralysed with fear
Stolen wonder whats in there
Papercuts
I don’t have anoymore pretty faces
Kicking up dust, keeping smiles
Filling in forms
I compared you . to my favourite piece of cake
But I don’t have one of those to put in my jewellery case
I imagined holding ground
It wasn’t the first sound
I imagined papercuts
No more gain to write
I don’t want to be extreme
To talk you senseless
Being worried, theres no casual, if theres no flame
I allowed you to move a stone, to be my simple
But I don’t have, a silent greed, to put it all on the front page
I imagined holding ground
It wasn’t the first sound
I imagined papercuts
No more gain to write
