I always feel like somebody’s watching me.
And I have no privacy.
Woh, I always feel like somebody’s watching me.
Tell me is it just a dream?
I don’t take waifs and strays back home with me
My bleeding heart does not extend to eternity
Yes I’d have to say I like my privacy, see
Did you know you’re on closed-circuit TV?
So smile at me
Private Eyes
They’re watching you
They see your every move
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away
From me you couldn’t see
How I adored you
So close, so close
And yet so far away
Home
It’s so far away now
Pure chance
It’s so far
It’s so far away now
My wife was soft
The mountain was hard
Her skin was smooth
The rocks were scarred
There were voices singing above in the sky
As I followed them up I was prepared to die
So far away
Doesn’t anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn’t help to know you’re just time away
You’d be so nice to come home to
You’d be so nice by the fire
While the breeze on high, sang a lullaby
You’d be all my heart could desire
Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon shining above
You’d be so nice, you’d be paradise
To come home to and love
'Mid pleasures and palaces
Though I may roam
Be it ever so humble
There’s no place like home
The poor cook he caught the fits
And threw away all my grits
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
Let me go home
Why don’t they let me go home
This is the worst trip I’ve ever been on
Through our last night ashore,
Drink to the foam,
Until we meet once more.
Here’s wishing you a happy voyage home.
A fugitive has been away so long
A thousand years, and now he thinks of home
The long men are waiting in the wings
To put him in chains upon his return
Emptiness, his bitterness is gone
Journey on to the eternal reward
It’s a long way to go
A black angel at your side
A figure, grey and ghostly,
Beneath a blowing beard.
In times of deepest darkness
I’ve seen him dress in black
She’s dressed in black again
And I’m falling down again
Down to the floor again
I’m begging for more again
But oh what can you do
When she’s dressed in black
She walks these hills in a long black veil.
She visits my grave where the night winds wail.
Nobody knows, no, and nobody sees;
Nobody knows but me.
Oh, dear, what can I do?
Baby’s in black, and I’m feeling blue
Dark matter flowing out on to a tape
Is only as loud as the silence it breaks
Most things decay in a matter of days
The product is sold the memory fades
Crushed like a rose
In the river flow
I am I know
With hungry joy I’ll be your toy
Just hoping you will play
Without hope my body starts to fail
Memories fade but the scars still linger
Goodbye my friend
Will I ever love again
Memories fade but the scars still linger
When I was just a wee little lad,
Full of health and joy,
My father homeward came one night
And gave to me a toy.
Tears of sadness for you,
More upheaval for you,
Reflects a moment in time,
A special moment in time,
Yeah we wasted our time,
We didn’t really have time,
But we remember when we were young.
I can’t remember anything
Can’t tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I’m waking up, I cannot see
That there’s not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
