Oh my lover

Oh my lover Don't you know it's alright

You can love her You can love me at the same time

Much to discover I know you don't have the time but

Oh my lover Don't you know it's alright

Oh my sweet thing Oh my honey thighs

Give me your troubles I'll keep them with mine

Take at your leisure Take whatever you can find but

Oh my sweet thing Don't you know it's alright

It's alright It's alright

There's no time So it's alright

What's that colour

Forming around your eyes Waltz my lover

Tell me that it's all right Just another

Before you go, go away Oh my lover

Why don't you just say my name

And it's alright Say it's alright There's no time

O stella

Stella Marie you're my star

Stella Marie you're my star Stand on ground look up at her

Just hanging in gold stone Just hanging there face froze

But I think I see her smiling

Think I see her smiling Think I see her smiling Think I see her smiling

Go Go Go

Go go

Stella Marie you're my star In your blue blue tavern

You light my lantern O Stella's large Pink on her face

It's glowing this place

A place for heroes only Place for heroes only Place for heroes only Place for heroes only

Go Go Go

Go go go go

Stella Marie you're my star I pin you to my chest Sell you to the rest

I kiss her gown Send those angels down to woo me now

I think I see her smiling

Dress

Put on that dress I'm going out dancing

Starting off red Clean and sparkling, he'll see me

Music play, make it dreamy for dancing Must be a way that I can dress to please him It's hard to walk in the dress, it's not easy

I'm swinging over like a heavy loaded fruit tree

If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on

It's sad to see

Lonely, all this lonely Close up my eyes

Dreamy, dreamy music, make it be alright Music play, make it good for romacing

Must be a way I can dress to please him Swing and sway, everything will be alright

But it's feeling so damn tight tonight

If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on

"You pretty thing" my man says

"But I bought you beautiful dresses"

Page 5: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Filthy tight, the dress is filthy I'm falling flat and my arms are empty

Clear the way, better get it out of this room A fallen woman in dancing costume

If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on

If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on If you put it on

Victory

I stumble and I'm in You fit me with those angel wings

Set me go Set me high

Set it up, I'm in the sky

The storm is gone (and the storm is gone)

And the temperature's high (and the temperature's high)

And Delight is dining (and Delight is dining)

At my table

God in my car Get it at sea Take a ship

I'd christen her "Victory" She'd make it

Vic-to-ry, Vic-to-ry

Page 6: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Come on boys, let's push it hard

You broke down, push your motor car Come on boys, you done us proud

You sweat till you mop it right off your brow

Vic-to-ry, Vic-to-ry Vic-to-ry, Vic-to-ry

So the storm is gone

(so the storm is gone) And the temperature's high

Highway '61 revisited

( Bob Dylan )

Well, God said to Abraham "Kill me a son" Abe said "Man, you must be putting me on"

God said "No" Abe said "What?"

God said "You do what you wanna, but Next time you see me coming you better run" Abe said "Where do you want this killing done"

God said "Out on that Highway 61"

Well, Georgia Sam he had bloody nose Welfare department would give him no clothes

Page 24: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

He asked poor Howard "Where can I go" Howard said "There's only one place I know" Sam said "Quick man, tell me, I got to run"

Howard just pointed with his gun And said "That way down on 61"

"Well, Mack the finger" said Louie the king "I got 40 red white and blue shoestrings

And a thousand telephones that won't ring You know I can't get rid of these things"

And he said "Now let me think a minute son" Said "Yes that can be easily done Just take them down on that 61"

That highway

Highway Highway Highway Highway

Now the fifth daughter on the twelve night Told first father that things weren't right

"My complexion" she said "is much to white" He said "Come here and stare up into the light"

And said "Mmmm you're right, let me tell the second mother it's been done"

But the second mother with the seventh son They were out on that highway 61

Now, the roving gambler was very bored

Trying to create the next world war And he found a promoter, fell off the floor

And said "I've never engaged in this kind of thing before But yep I think it can be easily done"

Highway They just put some bleachers there out in the sun

And have it out on that 61

The dancer

He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames

He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory

I can't believe what the lord has finally sent me

He said dance for me, fanciulla gentile He said laugh awhile, I can make your heart feel

He said fly with me, touch the face of the true God And then cry with joy at the depth of my love

'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights For the lord just to send me home some sign

I've looked long, I've looked far To bring peace to my black and empty heart

Ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, aaaaaah !

My love will stay 'till the river bed run dry And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky

I love him longer as each damn day goes The man is gone and heaven only knows

'Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights For the lord just to send me home some sign

Is he near ? is he far ? Bring peace to my black and empty heart

So long day, so long night

Page 44: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Oh Lord, be near me tonight Is he near ? is he far ?

Bring peace to my black and empty heart.

Dance hall at louse point

Rope bridge crossing

And I remember everything Sunrise on a blue horizon

With you, your hand in mine I remember the things you said

Said "I'll be your lady, way through it all

Be there to catch you, after the fall Run through the red light, out of my hair Run from the darkness here to the day"

Page 45: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

And I dream of running And in the dream I myself could run

And I feel the ground beneath my feet And I move like music,

You move me, like music

Head out of my way Head out to red light

"Hold on" the dream says Head out of my life

You said "I'd be there"

Now I'm treading very carefully And I hope that I don't scream

And I hope that I don't fall Off your bridge, crossing over

Sunny mountain, Swollen riverfall You said "I'd be there"

You said "I'd be there", through it all

Head out of my way Head of to red light

"Hold on" the dream says Head out of my life

All over my way

Head out to red light "Hold on" the dream says

Head out of my life You said "I'd be there"

That was my veil

It starts at daylight I see him

Before my sad eyes I hear him breathing

Oh lover, need you to lead me No never thought that you'd leave

That was my veil That was my time Once held secret

But now lies

No words can Heal my heart

Inside I'm broken Now it's done

Was she a pretty girl Does she have pretty hair

Page 47: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Was she soft-spoken Was there a love there

That was my veil That was my time Once held secret

But now lies

Give back my veil Give back my time

No more secret You give me lies

Give me back my veil Give back my life No more secret You give me lies

Lies

Urn with dead flowers in a drained pool

I need your light Darling love lies

And if you gave it to me I'd hold it in the palm of my hand Like a good luck charm or a vice

And I'll reach up like a child to receive it

There is no more sad There is no more leave I've got sun on my back

I'm in love again

Take me inside Your war love light And if he took me

I'd hold him up to the light Like a god, or a good luck charm, or a vice

And I'd open up like a child to believe it

There is no more sad There is no more leave

I've got sun on my back I'm in love again

But still you can't give your peace to me

Words leave my heart dry

Words can't save life Love has no place here

No joy, no tears

Darling, time's changed Time leaves, time fades

Please see through my eyes Save your tears for the next who dies

I shout but he don't hear

I put down on a page Darling spare me your tears Just send me the light of day

I shout but he don't hear

Can I tell you something

Page 49: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

It's about me and Billy Because I remember

I remember it all started when he bought that car It was the first thing he ever owned, apart from me

And the colour was red And the colour was red and he drove me

He drove me out of my mind I am over it now

It was spring or summer 65, I don't remember Steaming and sweating and sticking against the wheel

And I could see the tendons stand out in the back of his neck

And he used to make me pray, wearing a mask like a death's head

When he put me there in the back seat, and he said

Jesus save me Jesus save me

Inherited his father's hate, that's what he'd say

And he's cussed enough to strip the pain off heaven's gate But somehow

He could make joy come loose inside I would feel really, I would feel really and truly alive

And I would do anything for him He just wasn't enough He was never enough

He'd turn to me and say He'd, he'd say "Even the son of god had to die, my darling"

And he'd wanted everything He wanted everything

He wanted the honey from the king He used to make me

He used to make me pay Hidden in the backseat, such a, Jesus

He'd make me pray He wanted everything

He wanted all that means from the king Say it!

"Even the son of god had to die my darling"

Page 50: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

"C'mon say it!"

Jesus save me Jesus save me

Repeat 'till the end

Is that all there is ?

I remember when I was a girl Our house caught on fire

And I'll never forget the look on my father's face As he gathered me in his arms and raced to the burning

building out on the pavement. And I stood there shivering and watched the whole world

go up in flames. And when it was all over I said to myself "Is that all there is

to a fire?, Is that all there is?"

Is that all there is? If that's all there is, my friends, then let's keep dancing

Let's break out the booze and have a ball

Page 53: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

If that's all there is

And when I was twelve years old, my Daddy took me to the circus

'The greatest show on earth'. And there were clowns and elephants, dancing bears, and a

beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads. And as I sat there watching, I had the feeling that

something was missing I don't know what but when it was all over I said to myself

"Is that all there is to the circus?"

Is that all there is?" If that's all there is, my friends, then let's keep dancing

Let's break out the booze and have a ball If that's all there is

And then I fell in love with the most wonderful boy in the

world. We'd take long walks down by the river or just sit for hours

gazing into each other's eyes. We were so very much in love and then one day he went

away and I'd thought I'd die, but I didn't. And when I didn't, I said to myself "Is that all there is to

love?"

Is that all there is? If that's all there is, my friends, then let's keep…

I know what you must be saying to yourselves if that's the

way she feels about it, Then why doesn't she just end it all.

O no, not me, I'm not ready for the final disappointment Cause I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to

you, That when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my

last breath, I know what I'll be saying to myself "Is that all there is?"

Is that all there is?

If that's all there is, my friends, then let's keep dancing

Page 54: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Let's break out the booze and have a ball If that's all there is

Lost fun zone

I believe I am here to stay

I believe His Son was sent to say The fun zone is here

Right free so Take me one more time Take me one more time Take me one more time

I don't believe That I gotta die some day

Please take me one more time Take me one more time Take me one more time

Is this desire ? Angelene

My first name Angelene

Prettiest mess you've ever seen Love for money is my sin

Any man calls I'll let him in

Rose is my colour and white Pretty mouth, and green my eyes

I see men come and go

But there'll be one who will collect my soul And come to me

Two thousand miles away He walks upon the coast Two thousand miles away It lays open like a road

Dear God, life ain't kind

People gettin born then dying But I've heard there's joy untold

Lays open like a road in front of me

Two thousand miles away He walks upon the coast Two thousand miles away

Lays open like a road

It seems so far away I see men come and go

Two thousand miles until I reach that open road

My first name's angelene

The Sky Lit Up

I'm walking in the city tonight I'm walking in the city at dark Remembering, remember light

Thinking of nothing, and the shooting stars

And this world tonight is mine A world to be remembered in Think on a faded photograph

My hair longer than it's ever been

The sky lit up The sky

My friend The sky lit up

The sky my friend And I'm lighter than I've ever been

I saw the trees crossing the moon I saw the stars and heaven above Shine on my own beautiful prayer Shining on my own beautiful love

The sky lit up

The sky my friend The sky lit up

I'm lighter than I've ever been

And I'm dancing with him In this city and in this town

I don't care what he's thinking of Just take the car, just take my hand

The sky lit up The sky lit up The sky lit up The sky lit up

The Wind

Catherine liked high places High up, high up on the hills A place for making noises

Like whales Noises like the whales

Here she built a chapel

With her image Her image on the wall

A place where she could rest and rest And a place where she could wash

And listen to the wind blowing

And listen to the wind blow And listen to the wind

And listen to the wind blow

She dreamt of children's voices And torture on the wheel Patron Saint of nothing A woman of the hills She once was a lady

Of pleasure and high born A lady of the city

But now she sits and moans

And listens to the wind blow Listen to the wind blow

I see her in a chapel High up on the hill

She must be so lonely Oh Mother can't we give

A husband to our catherine A handsom one, a deal A rich one for the lady Someone to listen with

And listen to the wind blow

Page 58: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

And listen to the wind blow And listen to the wind blow And listen to the wind blow

My Beautiful Leah

Did you see her walking ? Did she come around here, sir ?

Black hair, brown eyes My beautiful leah

She was always so needing

Said "I have no-one" Even as I held her

She went out looking for someone Looking for someone

She only had nightmares

And her sadness never lifted And slowly over the years

Her lovely face twisted

Did she come around here, Sir? I swear you would remember

Page 59: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Black hair, brown eyes Late september

October, November, December

It never leaves my mind The last words she said If I don't find it this time Then I'm better off dead

A Perfect Day Elise

He got lucky, got lucky one time

Hitting with the girl in room five none nine She turned her back on him facing the frame Said, "Listen Joe don't you come here again"

White sun scattered all over the sea

He could think of nothing but her name Elise God is the sweat running down his back The water soaked her blonde hair black

It's a perfect day

A perfect day, Elise

He got burned by the sun He's a lucky man

His face so pale and his hands so worn And the sky

Let himself in room five none nine As she turned away

Said a prayer, pulled the trigger and cried Tell me why

It's a perfect day

A perfect day, Elise

Ah oh, It's a perfect day A perfect day, Elise

Your hair riding over I envy the pillow

Your head rests and slumbers I envy to murderous

Envy your lover

Electric Light

The beauty of her, under electric light The beauty of her, under electric light

The Garden

And he was walking in the garden And he was walking in the night

And he was singing a sad love song And he was praying for his life

And the stars came out around him

He was thinking of his sins And he's looking at his song-bird

And he's looking at his wings

There, inside the garden Came another with his lips

Said "won't you come and be my lover ?" "Let me give you a little kiss"

And he came knelt down before him

And fell upon his knees "I will give you gold and mountains

If you stay a while with me"

And there was trouble Taking place

Trouble Taking place

Page 63: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

There, inside the garden They kissed and the sun rose And he walked a little further And he found he was alone

And the wind it gathered round him

He was thinking of his sins And he's looking for his song-bird

He was looking for his wings

And there was trouble Taking place

Trouble Taking place

There was trouble

Taking place Trouble

Taking place

Joy

Joy was her name A life un-wed

Thirty years old, Never danced a step

She would have left these red hills Far behind if not for her condition

Would have left these red hills Long ago if not for my condition

Pitiful joy

She looked away Into a hollow sky Came face to face

With her own innocence surrounding her

Until it never was a question Innocence so suffocating

Now she cannot move, no question

Page 64: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

No hope for joy No hope or faith

She wanted to go blind Wanted hope to stay

"I've been believing in nothing since I was born

It never was a question" No !

The River

And they came to the river

And they came from the road And he wanted the sun

Just to call his own And they walked on the dirt

And they walked from the road 'Til they came to the river

'Til they came up close

Throw your pain in the river Throw your pain in the river Leave your pain in the river

To be washed away slow

And we walked without words And we walked with our lives

Two silent birds circled by

Like a pain in the river And the pain in the river

And the white sun scattered Washed away this slow

And we followed the river And we followed the road

And we walked through this land And we called it a home But he wanted the sun And I wanted the whole

Page 65: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

And the white light scatters And the sun sets low

Like a pain in the river Like a pain in the river

Like a white light scatters To be washed away slow

Like a pain in the river Like a pain in the river

Like the way life scattered To be washed away slow

No Girl So Sweet

In came the girl with the saddened eyes And asked him over again and again

"Was I too weak ? Was I a child ? And can't we leave here and start again ?"

And I love you

Said "I don't mind if you take me down" And "I don't mind if you break it all"

Page 66: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

But "how much more can you take from me" "How much more can you take from me"

"I'd like to take you inside my head"

"I'd like to take you inside of me" "You came from heaven is all he said"

"You came from heaven and came here to me And I love you

He drove it fast to make the night

And looked at his angel where she lay Resting her head and closed her eyes

And outside the heat and the summer fades

Deep in the sky a storm he'd seen Deep in the sky a storm he'd seen

"There ain't nothing no girl so sweet"

"Took her from heaven and gave her to me" "Took her from heaven and gave her to me" "Took her from heaven and gave her to me" "Took her from heaven and gave her to me" "Took her from heaven and gave her to me"

Is This Desire?

Joseph walked on and on the sunset

Went down and down coldness Cooled their desire and Dawn said

"Let's build a fire"

The sun dressed the trees in green And Joe said

"Dawn I feel like a king" And Dawn's neck and her feet were bare

Sweetness in her golden hair

Said "I'm not scared" Turned to her and smiled

Secrets in his eyes Sweetness of desire

Page 67: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Is this desire, enough enough To lift us higher, to lift above ?

Hour long

By hour, may we two stand When we're dead, between these lands

The sun set behind his eyes And Joe said : "Is this desire"

Is this desire, enough enough To lift us higher, to lift above ?

Is this desire, enough enough Enough inside, is this desire ?

Threw my bad fortune Off the top of A tall building

I'd rather have done it with you

Your boy's smile Five in the morning

Looked into your eyes And I was really in love

In Chinatown Hung over

Talkin about Time travel

And the meaning And just what it was worth

And I feel like Some bird of paradise

My bad fortune Slipping away

And I feel the Innocence of a child

Everybody has Something good to say

Things I once thought Unbelievable

In my life Have all taken place

When we walked through Little Italy

Like a gypsy You dance in circles

All around me And all over the world

And I feel like Some bird of paradise

My bad fortune Slipping away

The helicopters I'm in New York

No need for words now We sit in silence

You look me In the eye directly

You met me I think it's wednesday

The evening The mess we're in

And ooooh...

Page 79: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

( PJ Harvey ) The city sunset over me The city sunset over me

( Thom Yorke ) Night and day

I dream of Making love

To you now baby Love making On screen

Impossible dream And I have seen

The sunrise over the river The freeway Reminding of

This mess we're in And ooooh...

( PJ Harvey ) The city sunset over me The city sunset over me

( PJ Harvey ) The city sunset over me The city sunset over me

( PJ talking / Thom singing...together ) What were you wanting / What was he wanted

I just wanna say Don't ever change now baby

I'd thank you I don't think we will meet again

And you must leave now Before the sun rises

Above the skycrapers And the city landscape comes into view

Swell on my skin Oh

This mess we're in Ooooh...

( PJ Harvey ) The city sunset over me The city sunset over me The city sunset over me The city sunset over me

You said something

On a rooftop in Brooklyn At one in the morning

Watching the lights flash In Manhattan

I see fire bridges The Empire State Building And you said something That I've never forgotten

We lean against railings Describing the colors

And the smells of our homelands Acting like lovers

How did we get here To this point of living

I held my breath You said something

And I'm doing nothing wrong Riding in you car

Page 81: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

The radio playing We sing up to the eighth floor

On a rooftop Manhattan One in the morning You said something

That I've never forgotten

You said something You said something You said something

That was really important

Kamikaze How could that happen?

How could that happen again? Where the fuck was I looking When all his horses came in?

And he built an army Of kamikaze

Ten thousand willing

Pilots flying Interfacing

Space and beyond Built an army

To come and find me

Beyond all reason Beyond all my hopes

The call of duty Another war zone

Make me moan, moan

Kamikaze Kamikaze

You can't touch me Kamikaze

Eight miles high

He walks his path

Page 82: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

And I follow mine One truth for one eye He's come to find me

Ten thousand willing

Pilots flying Interfacing

Space and beyond Here is his army

Space and here we come

Kamikaze Kamikaze

You don't touch me Kamikaze

Kamikaze

You don't touch me Kamikaze

You don't touch me

Space here we come

This Is Love I can't believe life's so complex

When I just wanna sit here and watch you undress I can't believe life's so complex

When I just wanna sit here and watch you undress

This is love, this is love that I'm feelin' This is love, this is love that I'm feelin' This is love, love, love that I'm feelin'

Does it have to be a life full of dread?

Wanna chase you 'round the table, wanna touch your head Does it have to be a life full of dread?

Wanna chase you 'round the table, wanna touch your head

This is love, this is love that I'm feelin' This is love, this is love that I'm feelin'

Page 83: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

This is love, love, love, love that I'm feelin'

I can't believe that the axis turns On suffering when you taste so good

I can't believe that the axis turns On suffering when my head it burns

Now, love, love, love that I'm feelin'

This is love, this is love that I'm feelin' This is love, love, love, love that I'm feelin'

Even in the summer, even in the spring

You'll never get too much of a wonderful thing

You're the only story that I've never told You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so You're the only story that I've never been told

You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so

Come on out, come on over, help me forget Keep the walls from falling as they're tumbling in

Come on out, come on over, help me forget Keep the walls from falling on me tumbling in

Keep the walls from falling as they're tumbling in

This is love, this is love that I'm feelin' This is love, this is love that I'm feelin' This is love, this is love that I'm feelin'

This is love, love, love, love that I'm feelin'

This is love, love, love that I'm feelin' This is love, love, love that I'm feelin'

This is love, love, love, love that I'm feelin' This is love, this is love that I'm feelin'

Horses in My Dreams Horses in my dreams

Like waves, like the sea They pull out of here

Page 84: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

They pull, they are free

Rode a horse 'round the world Along the tracks of a train

Broke the record, found the gold Set myself free again

I have pulled myself clear I have pulled myself clear

I have pulled myself clear silent I have pulled myself clear

Horses in my dreams

Like waves, like the sea On the tracks of a train Set myself free again

I have pulled myself clear I have pulled myself clear

I have pulled myself clear silent I have pulled myself clear

We Float We wanted to find love

Page 85: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

We wanted success Until nothing was enough

Until my middle name was "excess"

And somehow I lost touch When you went out of sight

When you got lost into the city Got lost into the night

I was in need of help Heading to blackout

Till someone told me "Run on in, honey, Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out"

You shoplifted as a child

I had a model's smile You carried all my hopes

Until something broke inside

But now we float Take life as it comes

We float Take life as it comes

So will we die of shock

Die without a trial Die on Good Friday

While holding each other tight

This is kind of about you This is kind of about me

We just kind of lost our way We were looking to be free

But one day, we'll float Take life as it comes

We'll float Take life as it comes

But one day, we'll float Take life as it comes

Page 86: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

But one day, we'll float Take life as it comes

Oh, one day...

This Wicked Tongue ( Japanese Version - Bonus Track)

This wicked tongue says God is a million miles away

This wicked tongue says He can't see my day to day

This wicked tongue says Go on taste everything

And this wicked tongue says You know you're not really living

And it stares into the sun And it flies from star to star

Cursing everyone In my ringing ears

And that noise Is as much

As I could bare So I asked you where's the heart

In the rubbish heap of man And I asked him where's the soul

And the silence rangandrangandrangandrang So I stare into the sun

And I fly from star to star Cursing everyone In my ringing ears

And that noise Is as much

As I could bare "I give up"

He said "I give up you win creation baby has fell again"

Page 87: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Uh Huh HerThe Life and Death of Mr Badmouth

Baby, you got a bad bad mouth Everything is poison that's coming out

Cheating, lying since the day you were born Someone outta rinse it out with soap

Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out

No kind words are coming out of your mouth Plenty goes in but nothing good comes out

Badmouth, sad mouth, you were an unhappy child That doesn't make your lying tongue alright

Page 88: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out

Cos everything is poison You'll be the unhappy one Your lips taste of poison

You're gonna be left alone

When you told me every word you said Came from voices talking in your head

Baby, I just think you're out for what you can get Your badmouth has killed off everything we had

Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out

Cos everything is poison

You'll be the unhappy one Your lips taste of poison

You'll be in the corner crying

Shame

I don't need no lasso I don't need no ball and chain I don't need anything with you Such a shame, shame, shame

Shame, shame, shame Shame is the shadow of love

You changed my life

We were as green as grass And I was hypnotized

From the first 'til the last Kiss of shame, shame, shame Shame is the shadow of love

I'd jump for you into the fire

I'd jump for you into the flame Tried to go forward with my life I just feel shame, shame, shame

Shame, shame, shame Shame is the shadow of love

Page 89: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

If you tell a lie

I still would take the blame If you pass me by

It’s such a shame, shame, shame

Who the fuck

Who the fuck do you think you are Get out of my hair

Who the fuck do you think you are Comin' round here

Who the fuck who the fuck who the fuck do you think you are

Get your comb out of there

Combin' out my hair

I’m not like other girls You can't straighten my curls

I’m not like other girls You can't straighten my curls

No!

Who the fuck you tryin' to be Get your dog away from me!

What the fuck you doing in there Get your dirty fingers out of my hair

Who who who who Fuck fuck fuck you

I'm free, you'll see I'm free, you'll see

The pocket knife

Please don't make my wedding dress I'm too young to marry yet

Can you see my pocket knife? You can't make me be a wife

Page 90: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

How the world just turns & turns How does anybody learn?

Mummy, put your needle down

How did you feel when you were young? Cos I feel like I've just been born

Even though I'm getting on How the world slips by so fast

How does anybody last?

As the world keeps coming And the bees keep humming

And I'll keep running

Flowers I can do without I don't wanna be tied down

White material will stain My pocket knife's gotta shiny blade

I'm not trying to cause a fuss I just wanna make my own fuck-ups I'm not trying to break your heart

I'm just trying not to fall apart

The Letter

Put the pen To the paper

Press the envelope With my scent Can't you see

In my handwriting The curve Of my g?

The longing

Oh

Who is left that Writes these days?

You and me We'll be different

Take the cap

Page 91: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Off your pen Wet the envelope

Lick and lick it

Oh

I need you The time is running out

Oh baby Can't you hear me call?

It turns me on

To imagine Your blue eyes On my words

Your beautiful pen Take the cap off

Give me a sign and I'd come running

Oh It's you

I want you

The slow drug

Blue now is the colour Love the drug I'm needing

Got to keep this feeling

With the headlights burning We're looking up for something

Answers on the ceiling

Watching out the windows Watch the way the wind blows

Soon it will be morning

Still the question lingers I twist it round my fingers Could you be my calling?

Page 92: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

See this winged boy falling Falling out of something

Hits the drug I'm needing

Arrows that he's turning Need to keep this feeling Slow drug in the morning

With the headlights burning Looking up for something

Something that we're needing

Still the question lingers I twist it round my fingers Could you be my calling?

No child of mine

I have no time for hate or love Hey child, you're so full of woe I have no time for hate or lying

Hey child, you're no child of mine

I have no time for hate or love Hey child, you're so full of woe I have no time for hate or lying

Hey child, you're no child of mine

Hey child, you're no child of mine Hey child, you're no child of mine

Cat on the wall

Turn up the radio Turn up the radio

I heard our song on the radio It wasn't long before I think of you Can't get the sound outta my head

Don't look now it's coming round again

I saved your voice from the telephone

Page 93: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

I play it back on the message machine It really sounds like you're having fun

I'm going out into the midday sun

Come night, I'm gonna step outside Take a walk, I'm gonna clear my mind

The radio, still playing our song You got me jumping like a cat on the wall

Turn up the radio

They play the radio in my dreams Takes me back to when I was 17

Dancing in circles on the kitchen floor I'll play this song 'til I can't take anymore

You Come Through

We are waiting For the summer

The sun will bring back Treasures for us

Come on my friend Drink to good times

Golden wishes To your health and mine

You come through

For me You come true

For me You be well

For me You come through

For me

I'll be lifted On this our holiday

I'll take you my friend I'll take you with me

Page 94: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

You come through

For me You come true

For me You be well

For me You come through

For me

It's you

Oh dear sweet mama I'm not feeling well

Can I step out For a little while?

But I go missing

I steal away And I go kissing In the alleyway All I want to do

And all I want to grow up to be Is all caught up with you

Look what you're doing to me

Oh dearest young man Teach me sweetheart

How to love you I'm a clever girl

You've got me lying You've got me leaving home

You've got me crying When I'm alone

When I'm not with you my dreams are so very dark When I'm not with you I dream of my hair falling out

When I'm not with you I walk dark tunnels of my heart When I'm not with you everything comes apart

When I was younger

Page 95: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

I spent my days Wondering to whom

I was supposed to pray

It's you?

The Desperate Kingdom of Love

Oh love, you were a sickly child And how the wind knocked you down Put on your spurs, swagger around In the desperate kingdom of love

Holy water cannot help you now

Your mysterious eyes cannot help you Selling your reason will not bring you through

The desperate kingdom of love

There's another who looks from behind your eyes I learn from you how to hide

From the desperate kingdom of love

At the end of this burning world You'll stand proud, face upheld

And I'll follow you, into Heaven or Hell And I'll become, as a girl

In the desperate kingdom of love

The Darker Days of Me & Him

Promises, promises I'm feeling burned

You taught me a lesson I didn't want to learn

Why did I come here?

Page 96: Harvey, Polly Jean - Letras

Please tell me again Why did you ask me? Don't say you forget

I long for, I long for I long for my home

I long for a land where No man was ever known

With no neurosis

No psychosis No psychoanalysis And no sadness

I'll pick up the pieces I'll carry on somehow

Tape the broken parts together And limp this love around

Limp this love around
