Driving down familiar streets
Memories gather at my feet
I try to kick them away
Strangers looking through my eyes
Til I start to realise
I just don’t know that to say
See her, feel her, touch her
Turn around
Say all, be all, stand tall
Make no sound
Opportunity is here
Time to banish all my fears
I try to push them away
Testing boundaries I’ve made
Realise that I’ve been played
The stakes are rising today
Find me, touch me, make me,
Turn around
Stand tall, say all, be sure
Make no sound
(Not the only one
Through the setting sun
All is said and done)
(Take a chance today
Knowing what to say
Push the tears away)
Take the long way down
Through a lonely town
Counting down the days
Not making a sound
Not leaving a trace
It’s just an act of grace
I’m walking
Through your talking
See her, feel her, touch her
Turn around
Say all, be all, stand tall
Make no sound

Lying on my side
Try to visualise
What might happen if we collided
Carefully prepare
Sunlight in my hair
Slowly recall what we decided
Came from nowhere, calmed her fears then disappeared
And days are changing, rearranging, signs in the weather
Make a wish and reach below the undertow
And open up your arms and hold the feelings forever
Let it now be known
That this bird has flown
Tail and beak are gone in a whisper
When I saw your face
In that lowly place
Took me back to when you had kissed her
And every day I’m seeing all the signs
All my efforts playing out in time
Look around us, are you not amazed?
Stumbling skywards, bruised and slightly dazed
Came from nowhere, calmed her fears then disappeared
And days are changing, rearranging, signs in the weather
Make a wish and reach below the undertow
And open up your arms and hold the feelings forever

Early in the morning
I think I hear you calling out
In dreams you’re here beside me
But we’ve been apart so long
Can you hear these frequencies
Thre’s so much interference
You know it isn’t foolish
To try to reach beyond this
If I sent you a letter
Would you send one back to me?
Time and space just stretches out
As we try to live alone
I’m trying to feel what’s real
’Cos words have lost all meaning
I don’t know where we’re heading
With these misunderstandings
How did we get our wires crossed?
Talking without listening
Projecting into the darkness
This new love grows old

We’re all in the same boat they say
But I would disagree
So many different sailing crafts
Upon this stormy sea
We’re all in the same boat they say
But I would disagree
So many different sailing crafts
Upon this stormy sea
Some speed along in motor boats
As if it’s all OK
With little care for smaller crafts
Which may get in their way
We’re all in the same boat they say
But I would disagree
So many different sailing crafts
Upon this stormy sea
Some drfit around upon their rafts
They barely stay afloat
They’re praying for a change of luck
And chance to board a boat
Journey to a safe and calmer port
Look out for fellow sailors
Who may need some support
We’re all in the same boat they say
But I would disagree
So many different sailing crafts
Upon this stormy sea
We’re all in the same boat they say
But I would disagree
So many different sailing crafts
Upon this stormy sea

This is really wonderful, great songwriting, inventive and individual. Like many I'm coming as an old-school Lush fan, and this album booth smoothly follows from (mid-period) lush and also has its own voice. So glad I found this.
