tied down now you see too late lovers they will never wait
i am a camera (i am a camera) camera camera

there by the waterside here where the lens is wide you and me by the sea

altimeters reading zero formless memories lingering
nights are cold on this airfield i sit alone and watch the radar
locked on your wavelength caught in the field falling slowly
and we can fly from here and we can fly from here and we can fly from here
always understanding that we can fly
along the edge of this airfield the old propshaft airliners stand
altimeters reading zero formless memories lingering
and we can fly from here and we can fly from here and we can fly from here
and we can fly from here and we can fly from here and we can fly from here
and we can fly from here always understanding

track five: dion
when we have modern times like these its hard to keep a grip on what is real dion
hand to mouth and mouth to hand we feed no one there to monitor the need
could it be timelessness or just a way to say there is no other time dion
all of the lights were neon only the lies were true
i can remember dion how they [???] you alone like a [???] loneliest point of view
i can remember dion thats how i will think of you
take a [???] and walk along the shore down to places you have known before
out in the morning air where you could always be alone and watch the sea dion
all of the lights were neon only the lies were true
i can remember dion how they [???] you alone like a [???] loneliest point of view
i can remember dion thats how i will think of you
tell me how we've come so far dion i see it in your eyes that love has gone
when we have modern times like these its hard to keep a grip on what is real dion
i can remember dion i can remember dion i can remember dion only the lies were true
i can remember dion ? i can remember dion
i can remember dion

track six: videotheque demo
and hold her close i hold her close
one more chance to make it right holding hands in black and white i'll meet you there i'll meet you there
leave my mind back in my room maybe i will blow it soon and fall in love
at the videotheque we can dance forever at the videotheque we control it all
at the videotheque ghosts are only lovers on the screen
only pictures on the wall they don't mean a thing at all and i dont care i dont care
when the visions start to form the same illusion takes us all and you are there you are there
slowly senses leaving me once the two are in 3D we play the game
at the videotheque we can dance forever at the videotheque we can fall in love
at the videotheqe ghosts are only lovers on the screen
at the videotheque we can dance forever at the videotheque we can fall in love
at the videotheqe ghosts are only lovers on the screen
the videotheque the videotheque the videotheque (only ghosts are lovers on the screen)
at the videotheque

track eight: walking on glass
lenny demo
theres no way you can turn back the clock never cling to your youth
how unfortunate it must have been life is only a race
you're so old that it might take a crane just to lift back your face
scientific so scientific scientific so scientific but you were walking on glass
so unstable we bolt with the horse setting music to muscle
and the fallers will litter the course as we run to the castle
scientific so scientific scientific so scientific but you were walking on glass
careful you're walking on glass you're walking on glass careful you're walking on glass
when you say that the sun does not move did it show you the answer
when the ships do not fall off the world does it mean theres a wall there
he said the sun does not move
careful he could be walking on glass
he could see that the earth (he could see that the earth) was a mover
and the sun was a mother
he could see that the earth (he could see that the earth) was a mover
and the sun was a mother
but he was walking on glass

track nine: riding a tide
are just the tendrils of a vast but gentle plant which they command
the headdress of a goddess you wore the night we came
is only one small symptom and really not to blame
you're riding a tiger, riding a tiger
heaven sent the mortals ranged upon the wall
and likewise all the missiles shot to make them fall
effortlessly moving picture into frame
riding a tiger, riding a tiger, riding a tiger, riding a tiger
over the bleachers into the sky into the reach of some cool goodbye
key grip was crying best boy was me here into the shelter no one afraid

track ten: we can fly from here part II
and if the engines must be started in the night there will be silence no last intake of air
that cools in a cloud as we breathe too late for even the night planes to leave
in a broken run they always come and they fly from here
i want to be the one who always gives you shelter finds a way to keep you warm
and if some fool should say there is no other answer it a caution to face the dawn
alone so cool like the air that we breathe too late for even the night planes to leave
in a broken run they always come and they fly from here
