Lyrics featured below : "Missing", "Election Day", "Goodbye is forever"

Missing

And as I wander down to where you lay
the blood rushed up to meet the roses
in your hair
I thought I saw you smile
But now I don't see you anywhere
Whispering your love song in my ear
how can you touch me
when you're not really there?

Stumbling out I made my way towards the open door
climbing fast the sun broad streaming
laughter down into your empty gaze
where can I find out
how I want to join in your games
I hear you calling
I hear you ... calling calling calling calling
whispering your love song in my ear
how can you touch me?
how do you really dare?


Election Day

Wild kind of look to the day
Opening eyes impale neon flickers
She moon she turning away
The city's her slave but he's cheating his mistress
She's moody and gray
She's mean and she's so restless (so restless)
All over you as they say
Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force
Hi guys, by the way
Are you aware you're being illegal
It's making your saviour behaviour look evil
'scuse my timing but say
How d'you fit in with this flim, flam and judy

Maximum big surprise
Your smile is something new
I pull my shirt off and pray
We're sacred and bound together
To suffer the heatwave
Pull off my shirt and pray
We're coming up on re-election day

By roads and backways
A lover's chance downwind
Cut open murmurs and sounds
Becalm hands on the skin
Carry further oh...
Entangled strands all sing
Saving some time to slip away
We could dance oh...

Shouldn't be asking
Wild and scheming
Could be my election day

Stretching my luck down the way
To your invitation stretching my body
Use your intuitive play
'cause maybe we have more play time than money

Maximum big surprise
You know something new
I pull my shirt off and pray
We're sacred and bound together
To suffer the heatwave
Pull off my shirt and pray
We're coming up on re-election day

Re-election day

Goodbye is Forever

Sometimes you have no choice 
sometimes you've got no voice to say 
say if you will the words-- 
say if your world is so gray 
we can decide this 
there'll be no tears-- 
no tradgedy 
Sure I wouldn't break and cry, if... 
you walk away-- 
believe me 

Hey, goodbye 
goodbye is--forever 
Hey, forever 
goodbye is--forever 
and ever... 

Sometimes it makes no sense, 
this side of cruel coincidence 
caught up in our own barbed wire 
to set us free 
belive this-- 

Hey, goodbye 
goodbye is--forever 
Hey, forever 
goodbye is--forever 
and ever...
