Venice Shoes

Sweet Bergman unmasked
Does arabesques for us unasked
She melts into flight
Laughs in the face
Of this dusty traffic
You know unselfish love
Waits to cross
The impassable square
With nothing to lose
Nothing to prove
Once she held
Once she held
The golden east to fee
Sweet Bergman unmasked
Does arabesques for us unasked
She melts into flight
With nothing to lose
Nothing to prove
Just her Venice shoes
You know that unselfish love
Yes unselfish love
Is ready to cross
This beautiful square
With nothing to prove Nothing to lose
No nothing to lose...
Just her Venice shoes

Gracefruit
03:37
|

|
Borne through the darkness
From the beach at St Ives
To the northern shore of the Western Isles
Fruitgrace
Trumpets return
Then the Empress of hope
Finds you alone
Where can I find you?
If I push for a rose in the night
And I’ll seek you little gracefruit
Yes I see you little graceful one
Little gracefruit of the heart
And Cupid revealed
I was under his wheels
And a swansong you sang on the straw coast
And the red bow of Astarte
Ties the moon to the car
Down by Cape St. Vincent baby
Under the stars
Can I find you?
Yes I’ll push for a rose in the night
Yes I’ll see you little gracefruit
Yes I’ll seek you little graceful one
Fruitgrace
Our streets sweeps divine
Out of breath
Out of time
Any peaceful pose
Catches you up now
Get to the top
And I love you little gracefruit
And I’ll push for a rose in the night
Yes I love you little graceful one
And I’ll push for some pearls in the night
Pearls in the night
If this could last forever
With the moon and the car
Down by Cape St.Vincent
Underneath the stars

Never Too Late
02:44
|
|||
|
Someday she’ll blow her trumpet
Someday she’ll ride the waves
Walk out, blow out the candles
Just dismiss, just misspell your name
In the morning devour the glory
She’ll follow on in your footsteps
Florentine in your footsteps
Fog I am in your footsteps
All the way
For it’s never too late
No it’s never too late
If you are ever to
Rise like a phoenix
Heady drive for the sun
Trade in the horses
For a home in the south
Where golden-eyed girls
Sway on the beach
And move through the sunset
On wings of desire
Just last night I checked it out
And I got word
I heard it was Amapola on foot
As you said Mahler had his Alma
Yes Mahler had his Alma
I saw her last
You had me and I had you
For it’s never too late
Hey, it’s never too late
Like a sunset
On faraway lakes
Never too late
If you’re ever to
Rise like a phoenix
Heady drive for the south
Trade in the horses
For a home in the sun
Where golden-eyed girls
Sway on the beach
They move through the sunset
On wings of desire

Fermina Fair
02:34
|
|||
|
Bronze mistress sugar
Playful in design
Passion playing through her
Mysterious in time
Fermina in the garden
Wearing sunset shades
Seek her in the arbour
Bring her some lemonade
Even as she smiles
Even as she sighs
Fermina of the angels
Diaphanous and wild
You can see her now
Down a road so muddy
Through winds unclean
Love your confusion
Love her unseen
Fermina of the angels
Fermina of the dreams
Fermina on the rich coast
Fermina in the rye
Tall and flowering
In Dutch sailors’ eyes
And love her as she smiles
Love her as she sighs
Fermina of the angels
Fabulous and wild

We’ll see you sometimes
Hear your footsteps
Eating ice cream
Below Spanish Steps
79th & Madison
Down rainbow’s end
Soft trumpets plead
Through Eden’s groves
Down Eden’s lanes
Oh, Raphael
If you...
See her as Natasha
Laughing on the screen
See her by the fountain
Seraphic and serene
Born in fragrant season
Under old confetti bowers
Shadows in the garden
Will fall on every flower
Furies in the mansions
Serpents in the wells
A golden cloak of radiance
Broken like a spell
Just like a spell

Penned in a pissoir
The pursuit will end
For a poison flower
Down rainbow’s end
And all along seven bays
With opium smiles
She’s crouched like a sphinx
On these indigo tiles
Listen for me
I said listen for me
“Is this the face
That launched a thousand ships
And burnt the topless towers of Ilium Sweet Helen
Make me immortal with a kiss...”
Lost on a trip
On the streets of Brussels
In a heliotrope haze
Where acacia blossoms
Forevermore
I saw her last
Up on Claremont Pass
She came for some more
She came for some more
Honey at the core
For a poison flower
Youth will die
Penned in a pissoir
You cry
“Do I believe in you? Do I believe in myself?”
“We once had one of those
In my father’s house
The aperture from which the sand runs Is so tiny that at first
It seems that the level
In the upper glass never changes
To our eyes it appears
That the sand runs out
Only at the end and until it does...”

Through The Old Holmwood
03:11
|
|||
|
The harpies are gone
Can’t you see them fly away?
Flap their wings and sing
Sha la la la la...
Kiss some new dreams
In my tired mouth
Place your mystery on my lips
Still you ask me if I’m so alive
You must come with me
Through the old Holmwood
Birdsong ringing
Across the orchard true
And the trees so heavy
With the sweetest fruit
Kiss some new dreams
In my tired mouth
Place your mystery
On my lips
Hey now listen
You’re so alive
You must come with me
Through the old Holmwood
Your eyes they glisten
In this wondrous night
The harpies missing
Blown or gone
Kiss some new dreams
Kiss some new dreams
We’ll find mystery
In the old Holmwood
In the old home

Sweetheart Sessions
03:45
|
|||
|
I knew a girl
In her sweetheart sessions
Amphetamine blown
Fogged at dawn
Who left here several years ago
To get in the groove
And maybe let the good times roll
All the madder fruits
Of Italian summers
Down on the moonless sands
In limitless nights
In the rush of our delight
Too honeyed to move
Too smothered in pearls
Dance little star
Will you shine in the sky
Surely baby, we’re going home tonight
From Grand Hotels
Grand delusions
Everybody calls you
Promising you reunion
Grand Hotels
Grand illusion
Everybody making
Merry in the ruins
I knew a girl
In her sweetheart sessions
She was mahogany browned
So fogged at dawn
Down on the moonless sands
On limitless nights
On streetcars she travels
In confusion through the night
She stayed in Grand Hotels
In Grand Hotels
In grand illusion
But maybe baby... we’re going home tonight
Yes we are

Lolita

|

|
Oh, Lolita
Light of my life
Fire of my loins
She drew her dancing fingertips
Across my swollen lip
Half in her yellow dress
Half in her mouthly caress
There my brightling stood
Languidly finally nude
Laughing she’ll go
She said...
“Me faire casser le pot”
Ah, Lolita
Light of my life
Fire of my loins
Mûri au soleil

Via D'Oro
03:20

|
Via D’Oro
Down beneath the law
Moonlight on your face
Cast this mystic coast highway your spell
Hired at sunset
Still you look at me
Laughing in a doorway
Like a promise all too sweet
Via D’Oro
Down beneath the law
Then you kissed me
In your old way
“Will you always feel this way? Will you always feel this way?”
And you know I said
Yes I will
Yes I will
Yes I will
Yes I will
Shy like horses
Sky-wide tempest in blue
Dreambright in garlands
Tiepolo Blue
Moonlight on your face
Moonlight on your face
Down on Via D’Oro
Down in Via D’Oro
Dreambright in garlands
Down on Via D’Oro
Down beneath the law
Down on Via D’Oro
Moonlight on your face
Down on Via D’Oro

Ave The Leopards

Ave little Mamma
Meet me at the fountain tonight
Ave little Mamma
Meet me at the fountain tonight
Bring your Egyptian pistols
And blast them in the cool of the night
Two Latin leopards
Moving on the shore of the bed
Two Latin leopards
Moving on the shore of the bed
Wearing French silver fixtures
You shake them from your beautiful hair
Gone forever
Moving down on ghostly Marie
Yes she’s gone forever
Moving down on ghostly Marie
You used to smile like you knew something
Like a rumrunner
Playing Pavane in the shadows
Playing Pavane in the shallows
Ave little Mamma
Make me chose you all night
Ave little Mamma
Make me chose you all night
Hear the daybreak rustling
Raise a smile in the teeth of the night
Ave little Mamma
Make me chose you all night
Ave little Mamma
Make me chose you all night
Hear the daybreak rustling
Raise a smile in the teeth of the night
Ave little Mamma
Run as Sophia can
Ave little Mamma
Trust in Sophia again
Meet me when mischief befalls me
From the whispering drains
Two Latin leopards
Moving on the shore of the bed
Two Latin leopards
Moving on the shore of the bed
Waving blowing kisses
Waving to the Beats and the Reds
Ave Latin leopard
Mobile in the whispering rain
Ave Latin leopard
Mobile in the whispering rain
Mind me when mischief befalls me
From the cruel and the vain
Said mind me when mischief befalls me
From the cruel and the vain

Carnival

Night-time
We can’t lose
As we blindly tarantella
Bold enough to choose
Freedom’s angel is calling
In the winding violins
In the city night is falling
Can you let the music begin?
These few dying coals
Cast the only light in the room
And of your slender shoulders
Make gold
Play some tambourine
Like a Spartan girl
Promise me
From deeper in the lanes
Promise me
Promise not to change
Kiss me starface
Across celestial miles
From down the southern arbours
Way down the wooden aisles
Play some tambourine
Let our friends glow
Twist and shout
Lovers on the new bridge
Yes they call us with a shoutL
In sweep the swallows
Vital and sublime
To go down to the casino gardens
Play underneath the vines
Play some freedom angel
Play some freedom angel
Play for freedom
Let’s ride the streets imperious
Mile after mile after mile
And make the walls of Eden
Tumble beneath your smile
Kiss me sweetness
Both vital and sublime
We’ll go down the casino gardens
Play underneath the vines
And bring you violin
In a French gown
Play me out of time
Yes we’ll scale the walls of Eden
Yes we’ll scale them every time

A stranger perfect
In every movement
In Paris singing
Your Easter song
You seek her purring past
A phantom slender
A phantom bold
Ornella, you seemed to me
Bright with impossible...
Light with impossible dreams

Danger In Love
04:46

Love
When you find love
Then you begin
To live again
There’s a cry of incantation
Almost drowned
By traffic glissandos and screams
We hear a cry of invitation
Sounds like the prelude to a dream
Why should we still believe in...
Love
In love
Do you know the way?
You should know the way...
Tonight
We felt a sense of expectation
You wear your style
With simple grace
I heard you pray
That there’s still time
Why should we still believe in love?
Are you crazy, love?
Love
When you find love
Then you begin
To live again
Tonight
We have nothing left to prove
Tonight
Somehow
I felt just too hazy
We can’t remember
Just how
Young love felt
Even though we’re tired
We can’t surrender
But feel inspired
To feel the fever
To feel love
To feel alive
In all its faded splendour
In all its raging glory
And know that once again
We will surrender
To love

The Angel On Ruskin
04:52
|
|||
|
Believe it or not
There’s an angel on Ruskin
I saw her up there
With my own green eyes
She danced alone
Among the chimneys
As her golden wings
Caught the evening sun
I hardly knew
If I was still breathing
As I lost my way
On the eastern stairs
She trashed my car
She trashed my paintings
As her ribbons flew
From her midnight hair
I was always in love’s power
Yes always
Drawn into love’s power
Down on my knees
All was lost
And all was broken
Brought to heel
Like an anxious guest
On the eastern stairs
I stole some token
I chased a kiss
On her golden crest
I was always in love’s power
Yes always
Drawn into love’s power
Down on my knees
You would fall
Should you look into those eyes
Believe it or not
There’s an angel on Ruskin
I hear her laugh
And I hear her sing
There’s evil abroad
There’s a stranger on Ruskin
And memory lies
Like a girl on the wing

I love the sweetest stranger
Willowy & blonde
I find her as
Fortune calls to claim her
And she’s gone
I hear her as she calls
I love her as I fall
I love her as these
Maddening sirens call
With a madness
Bold as love
I love her as she calls
I love her and that ain’t all I love her as these
Maddening sirens call
With a madness
Bold as love
If I could just be the one

Unchained

Why do I call your name?
Shameless
Where did you hide your shame?
Your shame
Faithless
Will you be my girl?
Shameless
Will you rule my world?
Unchained
Yes unchained
I guess unchained
Here comes redemption
It’s going to set you free
Faithless
Goodbye Faithless
Hey hey faithless
Goodbye Faithless
I used to see you
Walking down our street
Where she picked up her history books
And a little black book on Jazz
Like a secret pang of grief
She was walking down our street
With the rainbow caught in her sleeves
Caught in her sleeves
Well, I guess I’m going to have to dream
Goodbye faithless

For Saskia
02:36
|
|||
|
Could you love me
Love me
Love me
As I love you?
Your namesake brought
Rembrandt to his knees
Likewise love for you with me
Yes now love for you with me
But was it just a dream
Was it really just a dream
French girls will ask you
For your cigarettes
And pleasure and regret
I couldn’t keep you for too long
But I can keep you in a song
Forever young you seem
Forever in a dream
If you see Saskia
Maybe you could ask her
Ask her how she feels
How does she really feel
And I hope she finds love
Finds the perfect love

Weem Rock Muse

She gave me a kiss
She gave me the sweetest kiss
In the village of Weem
She moved through the brightest dream
And somehow life means nothing to me
It’s as though I don’t exist
Like I’m lost in the Scottish mountains
Alone in the Scottish mist
I followed my star
I followed my brightest star
Yes I followed my star
I followed my guiding star
She was my muse
She was my Weem Rock muse
Yes she was my muse
She was my Weem Rock muse
And somehow life means nothing to me
It’s as though I don’t exist
I’m lost in the Scottish mountains
Alone in the Scottish mist
She was my love
She was my only love
When she was my muse
She was my Weem Rock muse

The Night Is Young

The night is young
Young is the night
The dream is over
Long live the dream
In the street
We hear mandolins
The winding violins
And our hearts
They are much stronger
They had been broken
But now they will mend
Can you hear
The beating of wings
The beating of angels’ wings
They will follow
They will follow
Us home
I kiss you once
I kiss you twice
On a tenement stairwell
The night is young
Young is the night The dream is over
Long live the dream

Send Me Your Halo
03:52
|
|||
|
Late one night
Cupid revealed
I was gone for you
I was under his wheels
No porch lights
Though I watched from the shore
I couldn’t take too much
Not too much anymore
There’s a girl somewhere
Up in northern Spain
She fell in love with me
In my pursuit of fame
Wished me luck
As my dreams fell away
She won’t miss me too much
Not too much anyway
Send me your halo
Send me your precious grain
On the street of the willows
We’ll remember your name
Remember your smile
Remember your style
Remember your touch
To lose everything would be too much
Those were such good times...
There was a girl somewhere
Up in northern France
She fell in love with you
In the pursuit of romance
All summer long
She danced 8 reels
She waits down for you
In the Elysian Fields
Send me your halo
Send me your precious grain
In the street of the willows
We’ll remember your name
Remember your smile
Remember your style
To lose everything would be too much

She's Gone Forever
03:30
|

|
Will I walk the streets
In vain every night
Yes I think I probably will
No reason
No quarter
No rescue in sight
I won’t reach for the poisonous quill
And you know that I
Just can’t believe anymore
She’s gone forever Forever
She’s gone forever
And this new love
Is this new love
A vanishing dream?
Way back
Way back when
Sunday morning and
Sat in the window
Was a brown-eyed Scottish girl
With a name that rhymed with the dusk
And she whispered with the blossom outside
Made me feel such delight
Made me feel
All the beauty
All the sadness
Of what’s gone away
And whatever you say
Whatever you do
She’s gone forever

The Dutch Venus
05:25
|

|
In Kelvingrove
I will remember
The bright-eyed Venus
From the Low Countries
I see her smile
Yet I’m reconciled
To a great love gone wrong
And I just can’t recall
At all where she came from
At all where love came from
But maybe if I try
Surely if I try
If Paris could chose
Could chose again
Then he’d chose the Thurmanesque
He would call her name
Touch the softness of her wrist
Kiss the fullness of her lips
Kiss her Florentine breasts
By Kelvingrove
I just surrender
For the Venus of Leiden
Is just so out of reach
But what a heady, heady fragrance
Just such a beautiful poison
That we call love
Last night
I heard myself sing
“Nothing else exists Nothing else is real”
Can I tell you something?
There’s nothing left to trust
Everything is lost
When you sold your trust
When it’s way past midnight
In cinemas
Coffee houses
Golden buildings
On empty streets
The Thurmanesque
The Florentine
Sunpowder in the Glasgow sleet

She stood beside me
On the windy drive
Kissed me sadly
Then she waved goodbye
But if you find her
Let her know
Just tell her I’m sorry
That she had to go
Just remind her that I’m still here
On the west coast waiting
I wear the rain like tears
When your heart has been broken
You’ll know better than to cry
Leave the words unspoken
Wear your latest disguise
And just you remind her
That I’m still here
On the west coast waiting
I wear the rain like tears

Isn’t she fine?
Positively the sweetest
Of her kind
Really just you see her
And you’ll find
She gets that look in her eyes
And you’ve got to see that
We’re moving up and on
Yes up and up
Girl, we’re on our way
And love is here to stay
She’s the kind of girl
Who will always
Find a way
Who is always set to play
And I’m the kind of guy
Whose dreams will
Rise unashamed
Who will love you Until the end
Because you’re my Girlfriend
Isn’t she wild?
Really just the last
Word in style
Choosing you beside her
For a while
It’s goodbye fake
Goodbye hollowness
We’re moving up and on
She’s the kind of girl
Who will always
Find a way
Who is always set to play
And I’m the kind of guy
Whose dreams will
Rise unashamed
Who will love you
Until the end
Because you’re my Girlfriend

They flutter down like fireflies
Tugging at your sleeves
Somehow rise to shame you
Bring you to your knees
Haunt your every sunrise
Everywhere you’ve been
And always walk beside you
Haunt your every dream
If love could last forever
Forever and a day
And she would wake beside you
Each and every day
Cupid held his Psyche
Naked and disarmed
Cadmus held Harmony
Forever in his arms
You’re feeling none too special
Feeling all too vague
But if you could lift your head up
Show that you’re not beat
Played out beaten
Cast down broke
Heads down defeated
Lost to all hope
They flutter down like fireflies
Tugging at your sleeves
Somehow rise to shame you
Bring you to your knees
If love could last forever
Forever and a day
And she would wake beside you
Each and every day
And the murmur of hosannas
Is never what it seems
And she would wake beside you
Know your every dream

East Of East Delier
03:40

Could not imagine
Where I’d seen her before
Could have only
Been in a dream
One long past
Almost forgotten
One I had when I was seventeen
I dreamt she’d come from Copenhagen
Many miles away from here
Now I know I was mistaken
She came from east of East Delier
She lays her head upon my pillow
Flings her arms across my chest
I don’t know about tomorrow
Tonight’s just fine
So hang the rest
I dreamt she’d come from Copenhagen
Many miles away from here
Now I know I was mistaken
She came from east of East Delier
Now her skin doesn’t tingle
When I touch her
Her pulse doesn’t race
Nor her heart miss a beat
I’m not so alone
It’s just that I miss her
But sometimes alone
Is just how we have to be
I dreamt she’d come from Copenhagen
Many miles away from here
Now I know I was mistaken
She came from east of East Delier

Sometimes I used to
Fly away each night
On the wings
Of an old love song
Somehow I used to feel
That I was weak
Then I grew strong
I call your name
You call my name
Doubt among us rose
Like provincial song
Will we be strong enough
To carry on?
I’ll be waiting for you
Waiting ’til you’re sure
(Under the circus Down by the trees
Under the August sun)
If the glory of love
Will see us through
I don’t know maybe
Then you can be my
Kelvingrove Baby
If I could reach you
I would walk all night
To hold you
In the racing dawn
Someday I know
That you’ll be back
I can hear your laugh
In an old love song
You knew my name
I knew your name
Drawn to the rose
Through the crowded thorns
Will we be strong enough
To carry on?
I’ll be waiting for you
Waiting ’til you’re sure
(Under the circus
Down by the trees
Under the August sun)
If the glory of love
Will see us through
I don’t know maybe
Then you can be my
Kelvingrove Baby
Something about loving
Something about hope
And fading footsteps
Down a long-distance line
Somehow desire
Forever flickers
In her green
And cinnabar-flecked eyes
When your girl looks at you
Yes when she sighs
When she moves beside you
You want the moment
Touched with magic
And immortality
You want rain
You want soft music
And the last words to be about love

Chained
By the window
In case you fall
Chained by the window
In case you fall in love again
Nothing quite as sweet
Nothing quite as sweet
Kicking off your shoes
On the sand
Fingers press down hard
You know the number dial
Caller you’re divine
Change
Again tomorrow
Into a positive frame of mind
Rise above your sorrow
You never know what you might find
Nothing quite as sweet
Nothing quite as sweet
Kicking off your shoes
On the sand
Fingers press down hard
You know the number dial
Caller you’re divine
When once is a breeze
Then twice is a hurricane

Along the flooded
Broken mansions
I did all my best to see
Her laugh in playful passion
Where once gorgeous
Phantoms glide
Among the long
Soothing shadows
She gave all her
Best in time
And wearing oils
Of hypnotic sweetness
She kissed me
With the moist part of her mouth
As lightning played on the water
Laughing she muttered a soft “damn”
Once upon a time on the Rapenburg
I’d trade all the best in life
To hold her close in a distant season
Caught beneath a Vermeer sky

Girl From The Polders
04:08

I was dreaming
Of a summer of content
Spent with you
You came through
Yes you came through
There was a songbird
Melodious and pure
And you were sure
You were sure
Across the water
Just so radiant in blue
When I kissed you
Just so radiant in blue
When I kissed you
You came through
You’ve got to live for yourself
You’ve got so much to live for
Through the autumn
As the leaves turn to gold
I don’t know
Come the winter
Of our ragged discontent
Well, you don’t know
There was a songbird
She threw her cadence down the hall
She asked me something
Did I love you way too much?
Or well enough?
When is enough ever enough?
You’ve got to live for yourself
You’ve got so much to live for
And yes
Back to the polders
To your own country
Across the sea
Across the devilish sea
But come the summer
Will I see you once again?
I don’t know
Back to the polders
Back to the sea
Back to the polders
I just turned to coal dust

You were on the ice tonight
In fog
And sudden shadows
The little pearl you left behind
I kept it safe
It’s here in my pocket
Like hope
Just something I would never give up
Like all the best dreams
Sometimes you have to
You have to wake up
Sometimes the wind caresses
Like a finely-tuned lover
And some nights I find that
Distance distresses
When I’m looking for cover
I can’t pretend
That I’m not crazy about you
I climb to your room
High on a royal crescent
Hear a trombone
Caught in the heat-pipes
Blow so incessantly
Your sultry breath tastes of time
I can’t pretend
It rang through my fingers
It’s in the nature of things
The memory flickers
But the fragrance...
Yes the fragrance remains insane

Hellespont In A Storm

Spread your wings
Above you
You were born to fly
Away in time
I was born to love you
But I was born to lose
In love
In time
But before you go
Before you go away
Whisper to me
Whisper to me once more
Say you loved me
You loved me more
Than words can say
I looked into
Your laughing emerald eyes
They knew me too well
And tonight
We will toast to glory
Tonight I will toast to joy
In my despair
But before you go
Before you go away
Say you’ll guide me
Say you’ll guide me once more
Through the Hellespont
In a storm
Spread your wings
Above you
The time has come to fly
Away in time
Where I can’t choose to follow
I was not born to fly
Away
In time

Yes I love you
Until the orchids
Forget to bloom
Yes I love you
Until the roses
Lose their perfume
Yes I love you
Until the poets
Run out of rhyme
Yes I love you
Until the twelfth of never
And, baby, you know that’s
Such a long, long time

I have to restrain myself from being too effusive about 'Anyway, Still'. This is truly unique music of beautiful, beguiling power which resonates long after each listen. A true gift. I'll be eagerly awaiting all subsequent releases. Thank you Exit North.
