Secret Garden

An oddball childhood unaware
That anything went wrong anywhere
The big reveal, the change for good
Set in motion the greatest labour of love
Could she ever gather enough?
It cost her everything, she lost it all
But she was so back in control
Roles reversed, a quest for good
Uncovering those two forgotten past lives
The late husband and the late wife
It all became clear
In that secret garden she uncovered his past
A true legend whose bright star failed to last
Unfolding before her eyes too late
She rebuilt it all brick by brick from scratch
Until every piece had met its match
Now the story is back in the public domain
The world's first silent movie star
Who no-one thought would get so far
Conquering the western world
His followers would regard him as a hero
Though his life was in turmoil
A teenage bride and baby girl
Sombre moods outweighing it all
High society facades
All coming to a head one night in private
The lovers would never wake up
The sorriest end
In that secret garden she uncovered his past
A true legend whose bright star failed to last
Unfolding before her eyes too late
She rebuilt it all brick by brick from scratch
Until every piece had met its match
Now the story is back in the public domain

See The Neighbourhood

Though my eyes can't see
I can feel my way
Around this neighbourhood
Each bump in the path
Each and every treetop
All the landmarks on the map
The shape of buildings
The course of streets
Draw pictures in my head
My fingertips take in all there is
My heart is dealing with the rest
Though my eyes can't see
I can picture clearly
The surrounding neighbourhood
Each bend in the road
Each and every lamppost
Every courtyard in the book
The shape of buildings
The course of streets
Draw pictures in my head
My fingertips take in all there is
My heart is dealing with the rest
Thank you for caring
Thank you for dreaming this up for me
Thank you for sharing
Your vision so I could see
The shape of buildings
The course of streets
Draw pictures in my head
My fingertips take in all there is
My heart is dealing with the rest
Though my eyes can't see
I can feel my way
Around this neighbourhood
Understand my environment
Now that I've been understood

That's Just Me

She said
What's his theory, his philosophy
What's his motto in life
It could always be: leave a legacy
Make the most of your time
So he's not into talking for hours after dinner
Or taking confessions and stringing them together
There's got to be something, somewhere it's hidden
Way deep, way deep down there's a personal vision
It's hard to tell what he's thinking
But I think he's thinking of you
It's hard to tell what he's feeling
But I've a feeling he's feeling for you
It's hard to know where his heart lies
But I've heard that his heart beats for you
It's hard to get beneath the surface
But keep trying, keep trying, keep trying
The days are getting shorter, the past getting longer
The pages are filled one by one
There's some mileage behind us so keep looking forward
But let's not forget our way home
So he's not into talking for hours at bedtime
Or taking confessions and placing them in line
There's got to be something, somewhere it's hidden
Way deep, way deep down there's a personal opinion
It's hard to tell what he's thinking
But I think he's thinking of you
It's hard to tell what he's feeling
But I've a feeling he's feeling for you
It's hard to know where his heart lies
But I've heard that his heart beats for you
It's hard to get beneath the surface
But keep trying, keep trying, keep trying
That's just me, me and my
That's just me and my way of expressing myself
That's just me, me and my
That's just me and my life staring down from the shelf...

All That Is Left

There was a time when all teachers seemed six foot tall
The meaning of life was a game of ball
Coffee was a thing that adults drank
And money gaining interest in a savings back
We thought the Beatles' finest hour was 'She Loves You' (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Terry McDermott had a cool hairdo
Fashion had a different meaning then
And Starmer only dreamed of Number 10
But when the mistletoe came out
Anyone observing could be in no doubt
What would I think of you now if I saw you today, Suzanne
I'd admit to my thoughts if I saw you today, Suzanne
All that's left is a memory, Suzanne
There's a sepia feel to those memories
Those days when a smile was enough to please
Such innocence is such a distant thought
It's a case of making do with what we've got
Let's do lunch with a glass of wine
Let me see, next Friday, I've got the time
Then why not a little coffee at home
A coffee at home
When the mistletoe comes out
Anybody watching will be in no doubt
What would I think of you now if I saw you today, Suzanne
I'd admit to my thoughts if I saw you today, Suzanne
What would I think of you now if I saw you today, Suzanne
I'd admit to my thoughts if I saw you today, Suzanne
All that's left is a memory, Suzanne
All that's left is a memory, Suzanne
All that's left is a memory, Suzanne
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
