Billy-Ray was a preacher's son And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they gathered round and started talkin' That's when Billy would take me walkin' A-through the back yard we'd go walkin' Then he'd look into my eyes Lord knows to my surprise
The only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was, mmm, yes he was
Being good isn't always easy No matter how hard I try When he started sweet-talkin' to me He'd come and tell me everything is all right He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right Can I get away again tonight?
The only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was, Lord knows he was
How well I remember The look that was in his eyes Stealin' kisses from me on the sly Takin' time to make time Tellin' me that he's all mine Learnin' from each other's knowing Lookin' to see how much we've grown
And the only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was, oh, yes he was He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man I guessed he was the son of a preacher man Sweet-lovin' son of a preacher man Ahh, move me

Once apon a time, Not too long ago, We took a day out in Manchester, We all fall down, There's not enough hours in our day. Played a bit of football, Fell into the union, Barged our way into the toilets, With the kung foo king, There's not enough hours in our day.
I remember seeing someone dressed in a suit, Looking like a lunatic, And we all fall down, There's not enough hours in our trip. Well, academy cartwheels breakin' your hands, We got lovely posters for sale, And we all fall down, There's not enough hours in our day.
We like lovin' yeah, and the wine we share, We like lovin' yeah, and the wine we share.
Finally made our way, Back to the train, Rollin' into Sheffield tonight, We all fall down, There's not enough hours in our life, Try and lose my way And wait at the station, We're whippin' Picadilly tonight, And it all falls down, There's not enough hours in our life.
We like lovin' yeah, and the wine we share, We like lovin' yeah, and the wine we share.

I am a one way motorway I'm the one that drives away then follows you back home I am a street light shining I'm a wild light blinding bright burning off alone
it's times like these you learn to live again it's times like these you give and give again it's times like these you learn to love again it's times like these time and time again
I am a new day rising I'm a brand new sky to hang the stars upon tonight I am a little divided do I stay or run away and leave it all behind?

I still refused all the methods you've abused Its alright if you're confused; let me be I've been around all the pawns you've gagged and bound They'll come back and knock you down And I'll be free
I've taken all and I've endured One day it all will fade I'm sure
I don't owe you anything I don't owe you anything I don't owe you anything I don't owe you anything

I'll stick around I'll stick around and learn from all that came from it
All my life I've been searching for something Something never comes never leads to nothing Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close Closer to the prize at the end of the rope All night long I dream of the day When it comes around then it's taken away Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most The feeling comes to life when I see your ghost
Come down don't you resist You have such a delicate wrist And if I give it a twist Something to hold when I lose my breath Will I find something in that So give me just what I need Another reason to bleed ONE BY ONE hidden up my sleeve ONE BY ONE hidden up my sleeve
Hey don't let it go to waste I love it but I hate the taste Weight keeping me down [x2]
Will I find a believer Another one who believes Another one to deceive Over and over down on my knees If I get any closer And if you open up wide And if you let me inside On and on I've got nothing to hide On and on I've got nothing to hide
Hey don't let it go to waste I love it but I hate the taste Weight keeping me down [x2]
All my life I've been searching for something Something never comes never leads to nothing Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close Closer to the prize at the end of the rope All night long I dream of the day When it comes around then it's taken away Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most The feeling comes to life when I see your ghost
And I'm done, done and I'm under the next one [x8, then x4 but yelling]
Hey don't let it go to waste I love it but I hate the taste Weight keeping me down [x2]
[yelling] Done done and under the next one Done I'm done and I'm under the next
You believe there's something else To relieve your emptiness And you dream about yourself And you bleed and breathe the air And it's on and on and on and on I just kinda died for you You just kinda stared at me We will always have the chance We can do this one more time Hell yeah, I remember aurora Hell yeah, I remember aurora All this time Hell yeah, I remember aurora Take me now, we can spin the sun around And the stars will all come out Then we'll turn and come back down Turn and come back down You believe there's somewhere else Where it's easier than this And you see outside yourself And you buy the hole you'll fill And it's on and on and on and on Hell yeah, I remember aurora Hell yeah, I remember aurora All this time Hell yeah, I remember aurora Take me now, we can spin the sun around And the stars will all come out Then we'll turn and come back down Turn and come back down On and on and on aurora wait for everyone Wait till the last one's done On and on and on aurora wait for everyone Wait till the last one's done Take me now, we can spin the sun around And the stars will all come out Then we'll turn and come back down Turn and come back down Turn and come back down Turn and come back down On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on and on
You make me dizzy running circles in my head One of these days I'll chase you down Well look who's going crazy now We're face to face my friend, Better get out
You know you make me break out You know you make me break out I don't want to look like that I don't want to look like that
You can see this on my face It's all for you The more and more I take I break right through
Therapy still scares me Putting me on my back again. I may be crazy, little frayed around the ends
One of these days I'll phase you out Burn it in the blast off watching me crawl away Try to get out
You know you make me break out You know you make me break out I don't want to look like that I don't want to look like that
