Words and music by roddy frame

You dont have to tell me what youre still looking for,
Two arms to hold you and a voice to say,
Thats alright, you can spend the night,
Well, come around.
cos Ive been there and these are the notes
From the overground,
The world saxaphone quartet, the smell of violets,
And a passing friend wont let you down.

Listen to the rhythm of the rain falling,
Say youre gonna change your foolish ways.
Make a promise, break a promise in the same day,
It goes the same way, anyway.
So you pray for silence and its sadness and its violence
To be washed away, one day.

I understand the state youve reach of being unreachable,
Somewhere out there where only the music plays.
Loneliness and being alone dont always mean the same,
Who needs the movie? you can see the music anyway.
A sketch for winter, a burgundy and sanctuary
Can make me stay when I feel that way.

And if my words dont say the things that they were meant to say,
And if confusion comes and carries all my words away,
And if you still dont understand,
I wanna hold your hand, and look at it this way...
Someone singings better than the war theyre winning
Winging its way, your way or my way,
Any day, any way, stray.
