tell the world you're alright
tell the world you sleep tight
and nothing can wake you up
tell the world you're alright
tell the world you sleep tight
and nothing can wake you up
and nothing can wake you
and nothing can wake you
and nothing can wake you
wake you up
and nothing can wake you
and nothing can wake you
and nothing can wake you
wake you up
tell the world you're alright
tell the world you sleep tight
and nothing can wake you up

when i want to be forgotten
i will cloak myself in sorrow
hide myself and i'm invisible
when i want to be your lover
i will clothe myself in armour
arm myself and i'm invincible
propaganda: keeping us together
propaganda: the lies that we tell each other
propaganda: tell me what i need to hear
propaganda: we are all actors
when my trials are unbecoming
i will run from my tomorrows
decline all your invitations
propaganda: keeping us together
propaganda: the lies that we tell each other
propaganda: tell me what i need to hear
propaganda: we are all actors
when my time is at a premium
i will live at my convenience
i will bury my impatience
and i will love you till the end of time
and i will take you everywhere you want to go
and i will hold your hand while you sleep
i will be here until you go

i hope in the future that i will be someone on whom you can rely
but maybe there's nothing we can say to each other that will help us to get by
no fancy illusions or interpretations are needed to understand what i am saying
i left them out this time: tell you how i'm feeling
just this once
we tried love
we tried grace
we had hope
we had faith
i found work
we had sex
i'm not sure there's anything left
i know a good tune won't change the direction of travel
and a couple of rhymes can't replace cupid's arrow
but this one i wrote just for you
this one it's only for you
i don't have the skills that i need to recover your faith and trust
but this is the best i can do with the lessons i've learned in life
i understand we're in a tricky situation
a song and a smile are not the solution
if your ears are burning this might be the reason
just this once
we tried love
we tried grace
we had hope
we had faith
i found work
we had sex
i'm not sure there's anything left
you know what i think so there's no need to say it
but i wrote you this song now i'm going to play it
but this one i wrote just for you
this one one i wrote all for you
this one it's only for you

you send our sons and our daughters to war
you send our sons and our daughters to war
you send our sons into battle and our daughters into hell
you send our sons and our daughters to war
and now you want us to do it all again
you want us to do it all again
have you learned no lessons from the deaths of the millions
now you want us to do it all again
i see your sons and your daughters are alive
i see your sons and your daughters are alive
you make these big decisions then let others do the killing
i see your sons and your daughters are alive
you have done very well for yourself
you have done very well for yourself
you can't even say sorry you think it'll cost you to much money
you have done very well for yourself
you see life through a camera and a lens
you see life through a camera and a lens
you see life through a camera that's why you never feel the anger
you see life through a camera and a lens
i hope you never set foot here again
i hope you never set foot here again
i hope you have to keep on running just in case you hear us coming
i hope you never set foot here again

turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
hold me close
say you'll never let me go
tell me that you need me now
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
feel my heart
beating from before we start
keeping us from being apart
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
all my life
waiting til the time is right
i don't need a guiding light
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now
turn the light out it's on your side
turn the light out it's in my eyes
and i'll let you know if i need you now

when you reach for my hand my heart leaps
i swear that it misses a beat
and i dream of a life when i have to surrender my time
but i know what is mine
when the sun streams through the trees it forms a wreath
it showers your face with it beams
and you smile like a child and i want to repair all my lies
but they hide in the dust
in the fields where they grow
all i know is that everything i know is wrong
when will you be home because i need you to feel safe
hold me while i sleep because these dreams, they terrify me
never let me go: i don't think i can cope on my own
in this place
with these fears
my emotions controlling my tears
in shafts of light through the trees
i can see my reflection complete
all i want is to sleep
not to dream
but i fear all i know is that everything i know is wrong

i have touched you everywhere
we have spoken in the dark
we have talked about so many things
and you, you are perfect as you are
perfect as you are
we fit together like a jigsaw
we fall like lovers in a dance
we move together in sympathy
and you, you are perfect as you are
perfect as you are
i have touched you everywhere
we have spoken in the dark
we have talked about so many things
and you, you are perfect as you are
perfect as you are
the sky's alight with bombers
and the truth is witheld from us
i don't know what to believe
the train is at the station
and the soldiers keep us safe from
everything that would destroy us
above me
below me
around me
surround me

your hands in the dark
your mouth leaves its mark
your eyes burn my soul
our lives take their toll
the beat of your heart
a light in the dark
when i hear you laugh I'm tounge-tied
a word from your lips
there's movement in your hips
a price to stay with me
the truth will set us free
the beat of your heart
a light in the dark
when i hear you laugh I'm tounge-tied

Tim Eveleigh Croydon
Hello
I'm a middle-aged middle-class singer-songwriter from South London. Sound
familiar? Yes, I know - it's another bloke-with-a-guitar, but I think my songs are slightly more varied than average and I have a reasonable line in between-song chat that keeps people vaguely amused.
I aim to play songs with words that move people and music that gets them moving. I'm currently recording new songs.
