Sweetest Thing (The Single Mix)

My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
But she won't catch me or break my fall
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby's got blue skies up ahead
But in this I'm a rain cloud
You know she wants a dry kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

I'm losing you
I'm losing you
Ain't love the sweetest thing

I wanted to run but she made me crawl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
I know I got black eyes
But they burn so brightly for her
I guess it's a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

I'm losing you
I'm losing you
Ain't love the sweetest thing
(Ain't love the sweetest thing)
Ain't love the sweetest thing
(Ain't love the sweetest thing)

Blue-eyed boy meets a brown-eyed girl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You can sew it up but you still see the tear
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Baby's got blue skies up ahead
And in this I'm a rain cloud
Ours is a stormy kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Doo doo doot doot
Doo doo doot doot
Doo doo doot doot
Doot doot doot doot
[Repeat 3x]

The sweetest thing
Oh, the sweetest thing


Twilight (Live From Red Rocks)

I look into his eyes
They're closed but I see something
A teacher told me why
I laugh when old men cry

My body grows and grows
It frightens me you know
The old man tried to walk me home
I thought he should have known

Twilight...darkened day
Twilight...lost my way
Twilight...running gray
Twilight...I lost my way

In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man

??? (Know what he's singing here?)

I'm running in the rain
I saw a late night play
It's all; it's everything
I'm soaking through the skin

Twilight...darkened day
Twilight...
Twilight...left me high
Twilight...I lost my way

Can't find my way
I lost my way
Can't find your way

Twilight...give me up
Twilight...
Twilight...lost my way
Twilight...I lost my way

In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man


An Cat Dub (Live From Red Rocks)

(This is The Black Cat, An Cat Dubh)

Say good night
She waits for me to
Put out the light
When I'm still
She waits to break my will

Yes, and I know the truth about you...

And in the daylight
A blackbird makes a violent sight
When she is done
She sleeps beside the one

Yes, and I know the truth about you...

(This is the bass player!)

(Guitar!)

Yes, and I know the truth about you...

(Rise up! Rise up! Rise up!)

(Here we go!)

When you're gone
It's been too long
We've been waiting all day
For this

We've been waiting
We've been waiting all day
For you
For you

Into the heart...of a child
I can smile
I can go back

Into the heart...of a child
I can smile
I can see my way

Into the heart...
Into the heart of a child
I can go back
I can stay a while

Into the heart...
Into the heart of a child

Into the heart

Tonight
Wait for tonight

(Thank you very much!)
