Driftwood*Shapes That Go Together 


Driftwood (1986, b-side to "The Sun Always Shines On TV")

Oh come pity me a poor mad sailor
Stranded on this love
Here I lie like driftwood
Honey is this what I become

I'd go high and low
Down under
At a lady's will
Under you

At a lady's will
I'm drifting still
I'm drifting still

so I'm lost and fading in my sins
And all my youthful rage
Will your hands still touch me
When my face has fallen in with age

And I'd go high and low
Down under
At a lady's will
Under you

High and low
Down under
At a lady's will
Under you

At a lady's will
I'm drifting still
I'm drifting still

High and low down under
At a lady's will

High and low down under
At a lady's will


Shapes That Go Together (1994, single for Paralymics)

When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were undecided
I believed
It's alright tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
We're shapes that go together
You and I

When you were filled with longing
I belonged
When you were weak from trying
I was strong
But it's alright tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
We're shapes that go together
You and I
We're shapes that go together
You and I

Child who'd wait in tears
Come to me
Whisper softly
And tenderly
I walked twenty-five miles to hold you
Just to find you'd moved away

When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were almost blinded
I could see
But it's alright tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
We're shapes that go together
You and I
We're shapes that go together
You and I
You and I
