Change Your Mind

Small town, you know everybody does what they can
And it's the way I like it that I can't remember where I am
I'll wait for that extra bit of courage to show
You could say that I’m reliant but I'm really just compliant to flow
Bung, ba dung, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh, ahh
Can't place blame, but this hole has got me feeling bereft
And you know I hate the rain, but I lingered there after you left
And you say that you don't know who I am anymore
I say "That makes two, but that other guy's a bit of a bore”
And her words ring true beyond a shadow of doubt
“You can try to save face but that doesn’t stop you cutting me out”
I'm no longer one to stay
I've found I come to change on a whim
But let's not begin
Because I think I just lost my mind
A thousand miles high
And I'm not coming down
It's got me singing:
Bung, ba dung, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh, ahh
You kept a promise you didn't make
I got a feeling I can't shake
I'm afraid I'm running out of time
And I'm scared I can't change your mind
Your mind
Lay down, but if not alert then I’ll be awake
And I say I want out, but really I just need a break
Bung, ba dung, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh
Bung, ba dung, ahh, ahh

Montréal

I'm gonna go to Montréal
I'm gonna get there on a train
I'm gonna dance away my nights
I'm gonna drink away my days
I wanna flirt with all the french girls
I wanna whisper soft and low
Would you love me in the moonlight
If by the dawn I had to go?
When the shadows put on faces
Open windows take me places
But the headlights just pass me by
Another sleepless night
Can they help me throw away my pride
And take it in stride
When you're not there?
(When you're not there?)
But when the seconds pass like years
It gets so hard to turn the page
Cause when the lights can't touch my skin
I'm like a tiger in a cage
All these people, all these faces
Are unfamiliar to me
From the Plateau down to the Old Port
Can they alleviate the stagnancy?
When the shadows put on faces
Open windows take me places
But the headlights just pass me by
Another sleepless night
When I look into this stranger's eyes
What a surprise
That you're not there
And on my tired metro ride
I'll wish that I was someone new
Then i could walk along Saint Catherine
Without depressing déjà vu
I'd hear the jazz play every summer
Sit on the peak of Mont Royal
Whatever substance I could sample
That would improve this bad morale
Dans le chaos d'oratoire, je me trouverais
Dans le chaos d'oratoire, je me trouverais
Dans le chaos d'oratoire, je me trouverais
Comme un enfant perdu en des lumières pourpres

You

When we first met you swept me off my feet
And when I think of you my heart skips a beat
I think I’m tired of just playing around
I’ve thought it through and I need you now
You- you astound me
You- you surround me
You- you just get me
You- never forget me
You- you surprise me
You- you hypnotize me
You- you resurrect me
You- you perfect me
Our conversation’s got me up all night
But I don’t care if I see morning light
Sometimes I think I don’t stand a chance
But with you I’m fine from start to parting glance
You- you astound me
You- you surround me
You- you just get me
You- never forget me
You- you surprise me
You- you hypnotize me
You- you resurrect me
You- you perfect me
And you, you’re always there
You, you always care
You, you’ve got me saying
I’ll always be staying
You- you astound me
You- you surround me
You- you just get me
You- never forget me
You- you surprise me
You- you hypnotize me
You- you resurrect me
You- you perfect me

Miss 45

Pass it on around, Miss 45
Oh, pass it on around, Miss 45
Oh, pass it on around this way
I do not want to feel today
But if I did I'd want to feel alive
Do you know of somewhere I can stay?
Oh, do you know of somewhere I can stay?
Say, do you know where I might sleep?
My bed's no good for counting sheep
Oh, do you know of somewhere I can stay?
Seems the wind is changing all the time
It seems the wind is changing all the time
I give to you, it isn't much
I daren't breathe, we barely touch
Around us now the dandelions climb
Take my hands
Washed up on the sands
Of a beach
I may never reach again
Exactly how far down I couldn't say
Exactly how far down I couldn't say
Upon these rocks, among the stones
Here wither weary, beaten bones
They've come to rest down here along the bay
For the seasons past I start to weep
Oh for the seasons past I start to weep
The summers pink, the waters blue
I'd swim along right back to you
And try to stay afloat in oceans deep
Here we are again, Miss 45
Well here we are again, Miss 45
The spring is gone, the autumn's lost
Now come the winter, come the frost
Oh please be here again, Miss 45
All the things
I could bear to bring
Weigh us down
Running out of town again
