We Didn’t Have Much Ringtones

Alone in a car driving me far to get to you today The wind at my wings whispering things for me to say The moon is in view when I get to you Alone in a car driving me far to get to you today The wind at my wings whispering things for me to say The moon is in view when I get to you These tender moments are a precious few 'Cause we don't have that much time together 'Cause we don't have that much time together The smell of your skin and I begin To kneel and to pray to you Your sensual caress makes me confess my love for you As we're making love we can't get enough The clock is never kind when we unwind 'Cause we don't have that much time together 'Cause we don't have that much time together Heaven is only halt the distance Between your soul and mine Blood is thicker than water yes But love is thicker than blood You bring me provisions of perfect peace Your sugar stained tongue is sweet So Heaven is only half the distance Between your soul and mine Because of your sighs the hours fly As though they're filled with air Yet here we are ascending the stars as lovers dare The rising sun is ending our fun We'll leave to future promise what's left undone 'Cause we don't have that much time together 'Cause we don't have that much time together You bring me provisions of perfect peace Your sugar stained tongue is sweet So Heaven is only half the distance Between your soul and mine The eye of the storm where it is warm peaceful and serene Your spiral of tears as morning papers The bitter sweet aroma of ecstasy 'Cause we don't have that much time together 'Cause we don't have that much time together

To be someone must be a wonderful thing A famous footballer or rock singer Or a big film star Yes, I think I would like that To be rich and have lots of fans Have lots of girls, to prove That I'm a man And be number one And liked by everyone Getting drugged up with my trendy friends They really dig me, man And I dig them And the bread I spend Is like my fame Its quickly diminished And there's no more swimming in a guitar-shaped pool No more reporters At my beck and call No more Cocaine Now it's only ground chalk No more taxis Now we'll have to walk But didn't we have a nice time? Didn't we have a nice time? Oh, wasn't it such a fine time? I realise I should have stuck to my guns Instead of shit out to be one of the bastard sons And lose myself I know it was wrong But it's cost me a lot There's no more drinking When the club shuts down I'm out on my arse With the rest of the clowns It's really frightening Without a bodyguard So I stay confined to my lonely room But didn't we have a nice time? Didn't we have a nice time? Oh, wasn't it such a fine time? To be someone must be a wonderful thing

I think of all the times, I needed you And you would come to me 'cos you wanted too And we built the fire that would last through the night Still be burnin' in the morning light. Oh, it must've had a thousand waysv Of takin' our breath away We took a chance or two, didn't we? And made some mountains move, oh, didn't we? From out of the blue storm clouds came And it started rainin', we just let it rain Oh, it must've been a careless love Oh, it had to be a careless love Satin sheets, and no regrets We had it, baby, we had the best, didn't we? And every now and then, I let my feelings show And though takes me a while, just to let you go 'Cos you were more than a lover and more than a friend Never before and never again Oh, it must've been Oh, it ought to be you and me Oh, we had a good, didn't we? Didn't we, didn't we?
