My Blue World Says Hello lyrics - Chris Rea

Everyone knows
My story of a heart broken clean in two
Everybody talking 'bout my never-to-be
No happy ending for me
Always seemed to get me down
A new kind of feeling
Baby since you been around, yeah

My blue world
Says hello
My blue world
Wants to know
Each time before
Good love seemed to pass me on by
Some kind of bad luck
Always seemed to get me down
A new kind of feeling
Baby since you been around
Since you been around me

My blue world
Says hello
My blue world
She wants to know

To take a chance with you
Is a dangerous way to go
But my blue world
My blue world says hello

Say a prayer and let it flow
Say a prayer for whenever it goes
Cos my blue world
Says hello

Lone Rider lyrics - Chris Rea

I'm the lone rider and I sure lost mt way
Yeah, I'm the lone rider and I sure lost my way

Gonna see me cry every time I see the break of day

I'll be on my lonesome way

Oh they call me the breaker
'cos I break everything i see
They call me the breaker
but that ain't how it should be
I tell you true, it's only what been done to me
Oh, lone rider, yeah, lone rider

I gotta be on my way

Every time I see the break of day
I got to be on my way ...
Lone rider ...

Texas Blue lyrics - Chris Rea

Snow chains busting up my fingers
Ice pick blisters across my hands
I close my eyes and dream of red rocks
All along the Rio grande

I was born into the north wind
Blades of ice and freezing rain
But I still dream cowboy blue skies,
how they help me ease the pain
'Til the day that sun comes shining,
'til the day that dreams come true
I'll be texas blue

Call me a fool if you really want to
tell me dreams can go so wrong
But these winter skies can't hurt me
while i sing this crazy song ...
'Til the day that sun comes shining
Leather boots and desert sky
'Til the day that dream comes true ...
I'll be texas blue

'Til the day that sun comes shining
'Til the day that dream comes true ...
I'll be texas blue

No Wheels Blues lyrics - Chris Rea

I'm standing by a streetlight
I'm hitching for a ride
Got no car keys in my cold hands
With a burning fire inside
You ain't nothing without four wheels
There's no pride in walking home
Got to get some money somehow
Got no job, can't get no loan
Got no girl, I got no friends
Busted pride in busted shoes
I got the no wheels blues

See that T bird on the corner
Oh lord, don't she look so fine
I got to find some money somehow
I got to make that T bird mine
I'm an ace without a license
I'm a champ without a car
Only a GT badge can save me
And gasoline can heal my scars

Without those car keys
She'll never have me
I'm just some punk with worn out shoes
I got the no wheels blues

Lone Star Boogie lyrics - Chris Rea

It was a freezing night, the wind began to howl
And a cold street wind came
Slashing through this northern town
They tried so hard to find somewhere to hide
To get some kind of shelter from their fear inside
He said, i know a place where we can go
She said, come on now tell me

Cos i need to know

Lone star boogie, boogie my blues away

I see a texas sky in electric blue
I see a big old raging truck come slammining through
He said, close your eyes
Feel the heat
I'll put some kind of Texas
Into your empty streets

It's a lone star boogie, boogie my blues away

I still remember the place we used to go
Dreaming dreams of Texas
As we pushed hard through the snow
You told the stories of the snow chain trucks that flew
we laughed cos I only saw them in a Texas
morning blue

It's a lone star boogie

Blind Willie lyrics - Chris Rea

Blind Willie, that man could see
What we
Can only dream about
Blind Willie, my one and only peace
That I can't do without
Blind Willie

Now I can smell the burnt out hell you lived in
The damp newspaper making up your bed
The stinging eyes that died
When you were just a child
Oh I swear that I have cried
For you
Blind Willie

I pray each night
You sleep without a fever
I pray each night
You don't feel the winter cold
Willie B and Angelina are with you now
And peace like sunlight
Wraps around your soul

Oh Blind Willie

The American Way lyrics - Chris Rea

Everyone tells me, everyone say
Nobody loses
The American way
Doctors and teachers
So much they can do
Food on the table
And a future for you

Sweet little angel, sleeping so still
I got to run for the boarder now
You won't see me until
Your papa got a good job
Got some money in his hands
Tell your Mama what I'm saying
She will help you understand
So while I'm gone
Pray that it won't be long
We'll be together again
On a shiny new day
Living the dream
The American way

I met a guy on a corner
I gave him all that we could
He said get me a green card
Mama's scared
She thinkd he's no good
I said this time it will work out
Anyway it's all we can do
'Cos we live for your future
That's why I got to get through
So while I'm gone
Pray that it won't be long
We'll be together again
On a shiny new day
Living the dream
The American way

Angellina lyrics - Chris Rea

Agellina takes each empty glass
And washes away every heartache
She calls out to the guys to drink up
What's left of their soul
Agellina each glass of hope that you fill
Is now empty and waiting
Waiting for some kind ogf love
Before their trail has gone cold

Each butchered dream
Has a matching face
For each story
Each lonely heart in this loser's race
Without end
Oh Agellina

Agellina, was there someone you loved
Who left your heart broken?
Your pretty eyes
Give your deepest dark secrets away
Oh Agellina so many who'd die for their eyes
To be closed by
'Til morning
Your smile is their kiss
As they hang on to each word you say

Each butchered dream
Has a matching face
For each story
Each lonely heart in this loser's race
Without end
Oh Agellina

Truck Stop lyrics - Chris Rea

I see everybody trying to break free
Boy, girl, man or woman it's all the same to me
I take the money, smile and say thank you
See their freedom fade away from the place they're
going to

All the single souls
A thousand stories to be told
They cut loose, out here, standing all alone
Something tells me they ain't rushing
Ain't rushing
To get home

Down at the truckstop
Step out your truck or car
Nobody knows who you really are
Truck stop
Did you lose or did you win
Nobody knows, you can be anything
Down at the truck stop ...

The only piece of life that you feel free
You can pretend you are
What you always wanted to be
Gas tank full and a dream still gets to you
Oh the great big you
That no one ever knew

Truck stop, you're not what you left behind
Truck stop, you're free from the ties that bind
Truck stop, one thousand stories to be told
Truck stop
Down at the truck stop

Step out your truck or car
Nobody knows who you really are
Truck stop
Did you lose or did you win
Nobody knows, you can be anything
Down at the truck stop ...

Weekend Down Mexico lyrics - Chris Rea

I remember the days gone by
I would wipe a tear from your pretty little eyes
And say darling don't you cry
We'll find a way
We'll get by

You looked at me with a wonderful smile
We held each other close for a while
Two young souls sworn never to part
Their love was too strong

And I can never let go
The memory that haunts me so
That long long weekend
Down mexico

And sometimes I still feel it inside
And taste one of those tears that we cried
Two young souls sworn never to part
Their love was too strong

And I can never let go
The memory that haunts me so
That long long weekend
Down mexico

Texas Line Boogie lyrics - Chris Rea

I've got my cards on the table
Got my life laying on the floor
I've been broke, I've been twisted
But tonight I don't care anymore
I'm gonna hang up my blues
And let them stay there for a while
I'm gonna dance in that line
I'm gonna lose them in somebody's smile
Texas line boogie
Let your troubles go by
Texas line boogie
Why don't you give it a try

Well you're feeling so down
You ain't got nothing to lose
Feel your feet and your soul
Rising up from your dancing shoes
Don't say it's not me, don't tell me that this ain't so cool
If you don't want some fun
Then God saya you ain't nothing but a fool
Texas line boogie, let your troubles go by
Texas line boogie, why don't you give it a try
Texas line boogie

Too Big City lyrics - Chris Rea

Well there's a big blue sky
The good Lord painted for me
From the east of Arizona
Down to the mexican sea

Oh this too big city,
It don't let me feel free
I'm going to pack up soon
Take off on my own
They call it the mother road
She gonna take me back home
Because this too big city
Got nothing but a heart of stone

Now there's a sense of freedom
Out along these country lines
I don't need no pressure
Trying to make your oxygen mine
Oh this too big city is gonna kill itself
For a nickel and dime

Goodbye, all my troubles will be gone
Well I'm going back home, back to where I belong

Goodbye

Houston Angel lyrics - Chris Rea

Neon lights shining in the deepest blue
You pull in by the motel
You know what you're going to do
See you face come shining
See a smile come crashing through
Houston Angel
She's still the one that gets to you

Well I know what you're thinking
I can see your smiling face
You've been all around I know
But you can't find another to take her place
Ever since you were a small child
You know it moved you deep inside
A certain kind of magic
You always found so hard to hide

See you face come shining
See a smile come crashing through
Houston Angel
She's still the one that gets to you
Houston Angel

She was always the one that burned you like a fire
And you never quite shook
off this strange intense desire

See her face come shining
See her smile come crashing through
Houston Angel, she's the one that
Still gets through to you

Houston Angel

I'm Moving Up lyrics - Chris Rea

Well it may not look like much
But it's all I got
It may be nothing to you
But I'm coming through
Oh, yeah, I'm coming
Yeah I'm coming
I'm moving up
I'm moving up
To Chicago

Yeah, I heard all the stories
Of those big wide streets
They say it's real good money
Oh it's easy meat
I've had enough down here
Well, see I got to go
I'm moving
Yeah I'm moving up
Ready or not
To Chicago

You'll see me walking tall
See my shiny shoes
I'm going to take it all up
Kick away those country blues
Well, I'll play anything
I'll play bazooka-zoo
I'll play electric guitar
I'll do anything you want me to

Yeah, I'm moving up
Well, I'm moving up
To Chicago
Oh yeah, I'm moving up
To Chicago

Maxwell Street lyrics - Chris Rea

Will you tell me mister
How did I end up here?
Oh, won't you tell me mister
How did I end up here?
I got a dollar for my trouble
And nothing for may fear

Oh, won't you tell me mister preacher
How did I end up this way?
Oh, won't you tell me mister preacher
How did I end up this way?
So cold and hungry down on Maxwell
And the blues tear came to stay

Well they told me I remember
This new life would be so cool
Oh, they told me I remember
This new life would be so cool
Now I'm standing here on Maxwell
Feeling like the biggest fool

Oh, my cousin caught the Greyhound
And my best friend jumped a train
Yeah, my cousin caught the Greyhound
Yeah, my best friend jumped a train
Now if I ever pull a big one
Maxwell won't see my face again

Oh maxwell
If I ever pull a big one
No you won't see my face again

Bob Taylor lyrics - Chris Rea

I pray,
Oh, I pray
I'm praying
Yes I am
Every single day
I pray
Some sweet morning
I'll get to move away

I fear who's in my doorway
Too scared to go outside
There's a gunshot every day now
One for every tear i cry
Sometimes I go to sleep
Hoping I will never wake
There's fear for my poor children
Oh I dream that one fine day
One sweet morning
We'll get to move away

Sometimes I see the Devil
Sometimes I see his face
I swear he built these towers of hell
Oh' I swear he made this place
Whatever made us come here
Whatever made us stay
This endless cold grey winter
Oh I pray that one fine day
One sweet morning
Oh, we get to move away

One sweet morning
Oh, we get to move away

Bob Taylor
Let the Devil take him
Bob Taylor
Let the Devil shake him
Bob Taylor
Let the Devil break him

Well, let me tell you

That's The Way It Goes lyrics - Chris Rea

She was a good time girl
Everybody know her name
Oh she was a good time girl
Everybody knew her name
She took off with a hustler
Never been seen again

He was a pool room genius
Broken heart and a broken nose
Yeah he was a pool room genius
Broken heart and a broken nose
Well, how he ended up in the chiller
nobody knows
That's just the way it goes

So many saw it coming
That dangerous path they chose
Oh so many saw it coming
That dangerous path they chose
But ask anybody down on Maxwell
They say that's just the way it goes
Oh, that's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes 'round here, yeah
Ask anybody down on Maxwell
They say that's just the way it goes, oh yeah

To Get Your Love lyrics - Chris Rea

I like the way you look
Play the game so well
I like the way you move
Oh baby you move so well
I like the way you shake shake shake
Shake a tail feather baby
Ain't nothing I wouldn't do
To get your love

On a trail of broken dreams
This road I ride
I need to kill these aching blues
What I feel inside
I love the way you look
What your eyes seem to say
Yeah, I know the danger
I take my chances anyway

Oh, nothing I wouldn't do
To get your love
To get your love
Ain't nothing I wouldn't do
To get your love
Oh, kill these aching blues
I scream to the good Lord
The good Lord way above
Oh Lord please help me
There ain't nothing I wouldn't do
To get your love

To get your love
Your sweet love
Ain't nothing I wouldn't do
To get your love
Your sweet, sweet love

Chicago Morning lyrics - Chris Rea

Have you got what it takes?
Can you take it?
Gonna need more that two strong arms
If you're gonna make it
You got to learn the game
Oh you got to know the beat
From the highest of the high
Down to the rules of the street

Chicago morning
Are you lucky today?
Chicago morning
Are you ready to play?
Chicago morning
Oh she's a city of dreams
Chicago morning
Do you know what it really means?
Chicago morning
Chicago morning

Are you ready to shoot?
You better not fake it
Cos she sure ain't no pushover
Are you sure you can take it?
Chicago morning
How far can you see?

Ain't nothing here for free, oh no
Are you ready?
For Chicago morning
Are you ready?
For Chicago morning

Are you ready?
You better not fake it
She sure ain't no pushover
Are you sure you can take it?
Chicago morning

Since You've Been Gone lyrics - Chris Rea

Since you've been gone
There's a cold wind blowing
I never felt before
Oh, since you've been gone
There's a cold wind blowing
I never felt before
I would give anything
To see you back up to my door

Since you've been gone
I don't laugh like I used to do
Oh, since you've been gone
Oh my sweet little angel
I can't stop thinking about you

Since you've been gone
I don't use my dancing shoes anymore
Since you've been gone
Yhey don't seem to smile like they did before
Cos they remind me of you angel
I can't really use them no more
Since you've been gone

We'll there's a big old empty space
Where my sunshine used to be
Oh, there's a big old empty space
Where my sunshine used to be
And everybody talking
They say, what's gonna become of me
Since you've been gone

Here She Come Now lyrics - Chris Rea

It's a kind of picture
Gonna knock you out
Certain kind of look
Yeah you know what I'm talking about
Some say it would spin you over
Sure gonna hold you down

Last Call lyrics - Chris Rea

Last place on my list tonight
Last drink gonna be alright
Seems like I'm headed
For some big fall
This is my last call

Last call for drink
Last call for a cigarette
Not least of all
Your face I can't forget
I lost
You won
And you took it all
So this is my last call

I can't remember how this night began
Boy we really hit the town
I think the plan was to forget about you
But before i put you down
One more drink
'Til you
I cant recall
This is my last call

One more drink
'Til you I can't recall
How I'd love to think
I could forget it all
Mr bartender please hear me out
Cos this is my last call
This is my last call

Maybe That's All I Need To Know lyrics - Chris Rea

It must have been
The shortest time
I thought we had it
Everything was fine
They must have timed it
Like a sly old cat
When I was sleeping
I did not hear the rat
And who was this creep you ask
Who hurt you so?
Oh somebody ...
Maybe that's all
Maybe that's all I need to know

I see their shadow
When I close my eyes
There is no way back now
It cut too deep inside
Dirty tricks I thought
I knew 'em all
There was no writing
on the wall
Who was this creep you ask
Who hurt you so?
Somebody ...
Maybe it's better
Maybe it's better
I don't know

The one they stole
Is now history
But that don't take away
The hurt inside of me
The painful razor
Of the Devil's kiss
Your closest friend
Could never do this
And who was this creep you ask
Who hurt meso?
Oh somebody ...
Maybe that's all
Maybe that's all
I need to know

Deep Winter Blues lyrics - Chris Rea

Freezin' rain
That blows straight through
Your busted soul
Fast food stinks
And hangs in your coat
As you try to take refuge
From the brutal cold
There's a place down south
Where a warm sea breeze kisses your face
Standing in freezing shoes
Me and you
With the deep winter blues

Steam on the main street
Snow on the side street
Ice on the metal stairs
Don't wanna take a shower
Too cold for a bath
Sometimes you'll find you don't even care
There's a place down south
Where a warm sea breeze kisses your face
Standing in freezing shoes
Me and you
With the deep winter blues
Deep winter blues
This cold is killing everyone

There's a smile in your memory
That whispers like a hurricane
Is your life becoming
Just a fight to get out of the freezing snow and rain?
Oh there's a place down south
Where a warm sea breeze kisses your face
Standing in freezing shoes
Me and you
With the deep winter blues
Deep winter blues

If I Ever Get Over You lyrics - Chris Rea

When tomorrow comes
The first day for me
that I will rise
Not so young
But free
Gonna paint the town
The brightest red
A drink for every time you said
That we were one
Always to be
I leave at home the ring you gave to me
And I will smile
As the sun comes shining through
If I ever get over you

I'm gonna laugh
No more the silent one
Dance upon tables
Never home 'til midnight, been and gone
I'm gonna throw away
All my clothes so blue
Gonna try everything, everything that's new
And when tomorrow comes
The first day for me
Then I will rise not so young, but free
I will smile
As the sun comes shining through ...
If I ever
If I ever get over you

Somebody said this new life
That I have come to know
I should have tried it
Oh so many years ago
The glimpse of freedom
Sings such a happy song
It's such a shame that it's only there
Only there for one
And I will smile
As the sun comes shining through
If I ever, If I ever
Get over you

I Love The Rain lyrics - Chris Rea

I love the rain
It clears the street
It cool off the pressure
It kill the heat
Gently it's falling
Turn down the heat
I love the rain

I love the rain
It's a sound so sweet
It's got it's own pretty music
See it dance around my feet
Gently it's falling
Turn down the heat
I love the rain

I love the rain
All the people move away
I love how things slow down
On a rainy rainy day
Gently it's falling
Wash the bad stuff away
I love the rain

It kisses the buildings
It kisses the trees
Drip drip drip drip drip
It slides of the leaves
And rolls off your shoulders
And gently rolls off your face
I love the rain

My Soul Crying Out For You lyrics - Chris Rea

Can you hear it?
Singing so low
Every time you tell me
You have got to go
That sad refrain
Those notes so blue
It's my soul
Crying out for you

What wakes you up
In the dead of night
And still you hear it
in the morning light
That sad refrain
Those notes so blue
It's my soul crying out for you

money don't buy no pill
to take away this pain that haunts you still
The sound that you have come to know
And I will not let you go
That sad refrain
Those notes so blue
Don't worry
It's just my soul crying out for you

That sad refrain
Those notes so blue
It's my soul
Crying out for you

If That's What You Want lyrics - Chris Rea

You say you need some space
Don't want to be tied to nobody that way
I'm hanging on with hands that bleed
Trying to make sense of what you say
And every time I try to make a deal
When morning comes
You forget it
So here's a whole heap of space
Cos if that's what you want
You got it

I been dragging round
Bailing you out
Every time you click your finger
So many things you say you can't do without
You need a slave
And babe that slave ain't me
And I am afraid that's how you'll always be
So if that's what you want
If that's what you want
You got it

Give and take
You'll never understand
It's all take take take
take as much as you can
So a life without responsibility
I'll gladly give you that
Here, take it from me
Fly away
And you'll find out
What life without me
Is all about
Cos if that's what you want
If that's really what you want
You got it

There's No One Looking lyrics - Chris Rea

There's no one looking
Let's steal away
This ain't the kind of thing
We do anyway
I'll make some excuses
You powder your nose
There's no one looking
Let's go

There's no one looking
It's just you and me
I'll steal a kiss
Nobody will ever see
Let's find an empty street
With a late lonely bar
There's no one looking
At how lovely you are
There's no one looking
So it's OK to smile

There's no one looking
Let's sit here for a while
Laughing's allowed here
Cos nobody can see
There's nobody looking
So for now we can be
There's no one looking
There was nobody looking
When we decided to go
So where are we now
Nobody knows
We get on so easy
Like each other so well
There's nobody looking
Is it OK to touch
There's nobody looking

What Became Of You lyrics - Chris Rea

What became of you?
And all you reasons why
This special love we knew
Would always end up in the pile
It took an age it seems
To let the tears run dry
Yeah I'll survive
I guess so much is true
That every time
That morning sun breaks through
I wonder what became of you

What became of you?
And all the promises you made
If what you said is rue
The debt of truth you left unpaid
the pain will always need to know
Where did you go?
What did you do?
What became of you

The wound had healed
But there's an aching scar
So deep and blue
The pain will always be to know
Where did you go?
What did you do?
What became of you?

My Deep Blue Ways lyrics - Chris Rea

There's a moment
In almost every day
I catch a little piece of blue
I stop for a while
Relax 'till a smile
Feels the sun
Come shining through
On a day like today
Don't you worry it's OK
It's just me
And my deep blue ways

They say I'm strong
Yeah I know
That's my history
It's a story that's good to read
But there's a piece of my soul
I could never control
It's never set me free
On a day like today
Don't you worry it's OK
It's just me
And my deep blue ways
Just me and my deep blue ways, yeah

It's such a long time ago
And it seems now so far away
Deep blue was the sky
Deep gold was the sand
And the music of forever
Gently played, yeah
On a day like today
Don't you worry it's OK
It's just me and my deep blue ways
It's just me and my deep blue ways

Sweet Love lyrics - Chris Rea

Sometimes I realise
There's no asking why
It's just sweet love
Sometimes we think too much
All we need is that tender touch
Some sweet love
We been caught up in what surrounds us
Oh sweet love
Let your body flow
Sweet love
Let your troubles go
It's more than you think
That you'll ever know
And it's just sweet love
Come on try it
Oh sweet love
Sure can't buy it

There comes a point in time
When you got to cut that line
And try some sweet love
Why do you cry and bleed
When it's all you ever need
Is some sweet love
Cos we been caught up in what surrounds us
When all the while it's been here all around us
And it's sweet love
Let your body flow
Sweet love
Let your troubles go
It's more than you think that you'll ever know
And it's just sweet love
Come on try it
And you sure can't buy it

You got to give it out
If you want some back
Don't find out too late
You been on the right track
Let your troubles go
Come on try it
Sweet love
Cos you sure can't buy it

Break Another Piece Of My Heart lyrics - Chris Rea

Girl you're driving me crazy
Girl you're making me blue
Why do you give me such a run-around
Oh babe what am I gonna do
Cos when I think it's all over
Past and gone
We're gonna make a new start
There you go
Break another piece of my heart

All our friends want to know
They all want to know the reason why
You say we're made for each other
That there'll never be another
Then you make me cry
Cos when I think it's all over
Past and gone
We're gonna make a new start
There you go
Break another piece of my heart
Oh there you go
Break another piece of my heart

Now I don't want anybody else but you
And my love is so straight and true
But every promise that you make
Is a promise that you break
I don't know what I'm gonna do
There you go
Break another piece of my heart
Break another piece of my heart
Now I don't want anybody else but you
But when I think we got a brand new start
There you go
Break another piece of my heart
There you go
Break another piece of my heart

Ball & Chain lyrics - Chris Rea

Sometimes I feel the shadows
What we used to have
Sometimes I get the feeling
Oh how it used to be
I cut my finger
Well, you kissed my blood
You were the shango axe
And I was your wood
Well it's been so long over
There's so little that remains
I just wanna hear you say
I was your lover
Never your ball and chain
I was never your ball and chain
I was your lover
yeah, never your ball and chain

Please one more time
Before I go
There's one small thing
I need to know
It's been so long over
There's so little left remains
that I just wanna hear you say
I was your lover
Oh I was your lover
Never your ball and chain
Oh I was never your ball and chain

yeah, never your ball and chain

Gospel Trail lyrics - Chris Rea

You got lovers
Hiding at night
There's a certain kind of fear in her eyes
Cos the preacher say what she doing ain't right
He see his bread of life
Quickly turning stale
All along
This gospel trail

I got my brother and my best friend
Choking on your book of lies
I saw you kill the truth with your eyes
Made everybody look like a fool
I saw the good Lord's words
Written on a bomb of nails
All along, all along
This gospel trail

I see blood run like a river
Cos of all your mistakes
Your song of compassion
Turned out to be just a fake
So now the innocent on both sides
They're gonna scream and wail
All along, oh all along, along
This gospel trail

Shy Boy lyrics - Chris Rea

Shy boy
What's this thing that makes you blue
Shy boy
Hurting in everything you do
Why boy
Can't you throw away those chains
Don't be shy boy
Shy shy boy

Shy boy
Don't you let this moment go
Shy boy
How you love to let her know
why boy
Do you let it hurt you so
Don't cry boy
Don't be a shy boy

You can run
But you sure can't hide
It's so easy to see
Deep down inside
What you're feeling
What you're going through
You're whole world's turning
Turning a deep shade of blue
Swap your tears of pain
To tears of joy
Don't be shy boy
A shy shy boy

Come Change My World lyrics - Chris Rea

I walk in your garden
And I feel your soul
This time like no other
I don't fear to go
My eyes are wide open
And I'm ready to be
Whatever you're thinking
I already see

Come change my world
Make it better that it was before
Come change my world
You come banging on my door
Two broken angels
Sharing life's scars
You don't wanna change me
And I love what you are
Come change my world

Cos I walk in your garden
This time I can see
This time forever
It feels so safe to just let it be, let it be
Come change my world
Make it better that it was before

Come change my world
You come banging on my door
Two broken angels
Sharing life's scars
You don't wanna change me
And I love what we are
Come change my world
Oh come change my world

Call On Me lyrics - Chris Rea

Oh child
Why did you do yourself so much harm
Don't you know don't you know
There's such a long way to go
If I could turn every scar and pain
Into some kind of help for you
I would give anything and everything
To show the way for you
Call on me
I got some good times waiting
Call on me
I got some good times waiting

I know what you're thinking
I hear what you say
The pain that you're feeling
You say won't go away
But I got the wisdom
Of a thousand broken bones
And I would break every one of them one more time
If that's what it takes to get you home

Call on me
I got some good times waiting
Call on me
I got some good times waiting
Call on me

Just In Case You Never Knew lyrics - Chris Rea

Just in case you never knew
I wanna say
What I feel about you
I wanna tell you
My love is true
Just in case you never knew

Just in case you never knew
Something deep inside
Make me feel oh so blue
Waiting for the sun to break through
So I'm saying it's true
Just in case you never knew

Oh, I've always loved you
Every day though it's crazy I know
My soul she won't let it go
She keeps telling me telling me telling me
So I got to let you know
Just in case, just in case
You never knew

Oh I know
This could make me look like a fool
But darling, oh darling I don't care
Baby I know
I'm acting so uncool
But I got to let you know
My love is there
So I'm telling you my love is true
Just in case you never knew

Let Me In lyrics - Chris Rea

There's a smile around your doorway
And all your words are shining bright
When you laugh
Its pretty colours
Lighting up the darkest night
It's a dangerous addiction
Everybody wanting more
When your devastating eyes look up
I don't know nothing no more
Come on let me in

Oh I'm helpless make me better
If i don't try how can I win
Come on and let me in

I wanna see the morning light
Move around your face
This ain't about 'good looking'
It's a different kind of grace
Oh half of this strange magic
Is because you don't know
What's behind this doorway
Everybody wants to know
Come on and let me in

Oh I'm helpless make me better
If i don't try how can I win
Come on and let me in

I know there are so many
That laugh around your dance
But I got to ask the question
Just to get me half a chance
If you tell me that I'm crazy

Oh don't worry it's OK
One chance in a zillion
I was glad to know you anyway
Come on and let me in

I'll Be There For You lyrics - Chris Rea

When the night comes round
Knocking on your door
When the darkness leaves you lonely
You can't take any more
There is someone who is waiting
Al you got to do is call
There is someone who will catch you if you fall
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be waiting
When you need somebody
When you feel oh so blue
I'll be there
Oh I'll be there for you
Yes I will

There's a light that shines across
Your dark and stormy sea
It will be there till your morning
Darling let that light be me
Please don't worry
There is nothing too hard for me to do
I got somebody really special
And that special one is you

I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be waiting
When you need somebody
When you feel oh so blue
Well, I'll be there
Oh I'll be there for you

I will be there for you
Yes I will
When you need somebody

The Pain Of Loving You lyrics - Chris Rea

See me walking 'round town
See me out on the street
there's a tear in every face
Of the friends that I meet
they try so hard to hide it
But it's easy to see
I know they care about it
What it's doing to me
Cos they know
What I, what I'm going through
Time and again
They see the pain
Of loving you

In the coffee break
In a bar at night
They keep catching me
Hiding from the light
It's so easy to see
The futile steps that i'm taking
To raise up a smile
While my heart is breaking
Cos they know
What I, what I'm going through
Time and again
They see the pain
Of loving you

I know that you
You don't want it this way
I know you care about me
So if you see a tear turn away
There's nothing nobody can do
No-one's to blame
It's just the pain of loving you
The pain of loving you

Too Far From Home lyrics - Chris Rea

You may find me
Wherever you go
From New York City
Way out to Chicago
I'm the son of a restless sailor
Blessed with Irish bones
Sometimes I feel like
I'm too far from home

I will sing
And I will dance for you
Every land you go
You will always see
There'll be big stout glasses
Full to the white top
There'll be stories
And there'll be me

Across the wild sea
I've travelled far
Born to move on
Born to roam
But lately I've been feeling
Like I'm too far from home

Whatever happened
To the girl I loved
Oh I ask forgiveness
To the one above
There was a day I could have made it real fine
Something went wrong I forget
Too far down that line

Across the wild sea
Too far along down along that line
Across the wild sea
Born to roam
But lately I've been feeling
Like I'm too far from home

Til The Morning Sun Shines On My Love And Me lyrics - Chris Rea

It's a dream I know
We all know so well
Everywhere I go
She's only one step behind
I could search the world over
But I'll never be free
'Til the morning sun shines
Oh my love, and me

I have taken so many
Turns on this road
I don't know east from west
North or south which is best?
I will never know now
The best way to be
'Til the morning sun shines
Oh my love, and me

I went looking for my home
On a cold winter's day
Waved goodbye to my best friend
As he faded away
Somewhere between fortune and reason to be
I found out there was only one thing
That really mattered to me

Oh the busted and the lonely
Are my only true friends
Feel like a wounded old fighting dog
Waiting for the end
I've exchanged all my victories
For just a short time to see
The morning sunrise
On my love, and me

What She Really Is lyrics - Chris Rea

One day you will find
That you done her wrong
When it's all passed on over
All dead and gone
You drink to what you
What you thought she was
And I will drink to
What she really is

And if you ever thought
That she lost her way
Well it hurts me much more
Cos you did not say
And what was all true
One day you will see
Oh don't be confused
It's not what came to be
It's how that she is
And always will be
Now you ask yourself
Why did you not see

How you'd like to be
in your wildest dream
Well that's how she saw you
how it could have been
Come on drink up some more
To what you thought she was
And I'll drink to the angel that she really is

Such a pain now to find out
Now it's way past and gone
What you wanted her to be
She was all along
So come on drink up some more
To what you thought she was
And I'll drink to what
To what she, she really is

Wishing Well lyrics - Chris Rea

There's a dream that has no ending
There's a love that cannot be
There's a ghost without the chains of love
Who will never ever be free
And gather round the rich man
Their own souls to sell
Down in the darkness
Of the wishing well

There's a way to find peace
That nobody cares to own
The sacrifice that's needed
May be way to close to home
There's a charter of freedom
Where the last soldier fell
All in the darkness
Of the wishing well

There's a whisper of light
Way above their desires
While they sit in the dark
And dream of bright skies
What they wanted so bad
Don't exist in it's place
The idea of changing
Is too hard to face
Down in the darkness
Of the wishing well

So they sit at the bottom
And they gaze with sad eyes
That grow larger than envy
Til they split at the sides
And they sleep in the mess
Of the last soul that fell
Down in the darkness
Oh, down in the darkness
Of the wishing well

Irish Blues lyrics - Chris Rea

Let me tell you 'bout Irish blues
It ain't about receiving some bad news
It's something deep inside you can't control
Locked inside your grandma's Irish soul
Take it right up to the king of Swing
I know for sure that he will let you in
Look dep down into your dancing shoes
I know you're going to find some Irish blues
There's a feeling you will never lose
So let it lead you on
When you get those rainy monday blues

I know a guy a guy whose bass first cut the groove
Man Gordon Edwards
He could really move

But Irish blood is how he came to be

No More Sorrow lyrics - Chris Rea

Broken hearts
And broken souls
Are all that's left here
On a piano stool
Trying to play a tune
Make them feel alright

They talk of days
Sweet past and gone
And a love that got away
Put one more nightcap
In this empty glass
And these words I hear 'em say

No more sorrow
No more pain
Good Lord please forgive me
Yeah sing it again
No more sorrow
No more fear
Feel that sweet day
Coming near

There's no such thing
As bad luck here
There just ain't no luck at all
How did I ever lose my way
The only writing on this bar room wall

They talk of days
Sweet past and gone
And a love that got away
Put one more nightcap
In this empty glass
And these words I hear 'em say

No more sorrow
No more pain
Good Lord please forgive me
Yeah sing it again
No more sorrow
No more fear
Feel that sweet day
Coming near

While I Remain lyrics - Chris Rea

I take this moring
With a change of heart
I take this moring
And make a brand new start
It was such a short while
We were apart
Now you speak of change
While I remain

A chance of love
For evermore
I thought had come
Up to my door
You've said your feelings
Were just the same
Now you talk of change
While I remain

This part of you
I did not know
I kissed your face
And watched you go
If there was something
It did not show
Seems while you changed
While I remain

I should have tried
To stay by you
I did not go
Oh how I wanted to
How could I see
This rock so grave?
That lay below
Your deep blue wave
This rock of change
While I remain

So short a time
So big the chance
So quick the sting
So slow the pain
Oh life we shared
I'll try to start again
But what I loved is gone
While I remain
I curse the day
I kissed your flame
Now what I love so much is gone
While I remain

Last Drink lyrics - Chris Rea

Wherever I roam
Wherever I go
They'll always be
A smile that I know
At the calling of time
And the last one is here
My lips kiss the glass
And I feel your soul near
Wherever I go
Whatever I do
My last drink is always
Always for you

There'll always be time
Time for "the one"
They'll always be reasons
Before the last one is gone
So my lips the glass
For the good times we knew
And my last drink is always
Always for you

A glass that is full
Is how I see me and you
So I'll smile while drink it
Let tomorrow shine through
My lips kiss the glass
To the good times we knew
And my last drink is always
Always for you

'Til I Find My True Love's Name lyrics - Chris Rea

Ride the wind
Ride the rain
Steal the thunder
Take the pain
Keep it burning
keep the flame
'Til I find my true love's name

Twelve wild angels
Sing this song
Into forever
They drag me on
Lashed with leather hurricanes
'Til I find my true love's name

This path of hailstones
Is easy to choose
Without a lover
There's nothing to lose
My wrists may bleed
But nothing will change
'Til I find my true love's name

Still I smile and I go on
Let the Devil sing his fearful song
I will not rest
I will not be chained
'Til i find my true
Oh 'til I find my true
Oh 'til I find my true love's name

Big White Door lyrics - Chris Rea

Looks like I'm flying
But I'm crawling slowly
I learn the way to swim
Is just to let it go
Don't expect nothing
Don't smile or grieve no more
Except maybe a little more pain
And a little more closely
To the big white door

First time I saw it
My fear ran wild
Screaming like a drowing man
Crying like a child
But each time I looked out
It was a little closer than before
Of that big white door

Now I'm gliding on the fast flow
Now I'm falling through the air
Seems like everything is moving slowly
Now I find I don't seem to care
A little closer
A little darker
'Til there's nothing else more
Just the universe in shadow
Of the big, the big white door
Of the big white door

Hey Gringo lyrics - Chris Rea

Hey gringo
Why you got me tied and bound?
I gotta crop to keep my family
You tell me burn it to the ground
Hey gringo
Help me try to understand
You got so many paper dollars
Why do you need my piece of land?
Hey gringo

Hey gringo
Why you do this I don't know
Why don't you give me fair price for my labour?
Then what you want I will grow
Hey gringo

Now my children have no doctor
My mother needs some pill
My wife have no pinkiller
And I hear her cry out still
When you find that the end of life
You scared what comes to you
Well God is going to ask you
What good did you ever do?
Hey gringo

Hey gringo
Oh there's enough why can't we share
Hey gringo
I only ask for what is fair
Hey gringo
Well the next time you turn round
Hey gringo
Maybe God will gun you down
Hey gringo

Hey Gringo lyrics - Chris Rea

Hey gringo
Why you got me tied and bound?

Hey gringo

Hey gringo
Why you do this I don't know
Why don't you give me fair price for my labour?
Then what you want I will grow

Immigration Blues lyrics - Chris Rea

I came here to work
And take up the rope
Give contributuion
In this land of hope
I'll bleed for your king
I'll die for your queen
Give all and some more
To your western dream
Locked in the ghetto
Waiting for news
Standing on the corner
With those immigration blues

My cousin told me
Steal your mother's ring of gold
Raise every single dollar
Oh before we get too old
Now I'm standing in an endless line
Waiting for some news
My dignity cries for mercy
With those immigration blues

Don't know where my cousin went to
Maybe they sent him back alone
I miss the ones I left so badly
Maybe I should have stayed back home
Somebody knows a dealer
Now it seems I don't get to choose
So I got to try whatever
Kick out these immigration blues, yeah
Those immigration blues

Still Trying To Clear My Name lyrics - Chris Rea

You heard all the stories
You heard what they say
This stuff's so outdated
I can't believe I have to live this way
There's been so many seasons
Years of thunder fire and rain
So many years since I got free
And I'm still trying to clear my name
Still trying to clear my name

Like an old prize-fighter
everybody wants to punch
i even try to take a fall sometimes
just to get back to my lunch
I get it so many times
I swear I'll go insane
So many years now since I got framed
And I'm still trying to clear my name

Let me tell you it's getting closer
Closer by the day
I'm loosing my soul
When I'm hearing what they say
I try to be polite
I try to smile
And walk away
Sometimes it gets me so bad
I'm gonna loose it in a big way

So many years
Since I've gone straight
So many years of shame
And I'm still trying to clear my name

Sun Is Hot lyrics - Chris Rea

Sun is hot
Beatin' down
Got to get out
Got to get out of town
Find a place
Sandy blue
That's what I'm thinking
What I'm going to do
Cos sun is hot
Oh sun is hot

Sun is hot
To hot to work all day
I'm burning up
Got to get away
These workin' clothes
Are chokin' me
Deep in the blue blue shade
That's where I got to be
Cos sun is hot
yeah, yeah sun is hot
Oh sun is hot

Sun is hot
Hot sun burn my skin
Ain't no fancy air-conditioning
Oh it ain't so funny
when you can't sleep
I'm working so hard, so hard
Trying to keep the beat
Oh sun is hot, yeah
oh sun is hot
Oh that sun is sure hot
I got to get away

Screw You And Your Deep Blue Sea lyrics - Chris Rea

White god standing
By the breaking waves
Thirty pieces of silver
Everybody gave
You drop 'em in
Eat 'em up
You drink his wine
From a plastic cup
The soul of this place
You've taken from me
So screw you
And your deep blue sea

Complex phrases
Hide what's true
The biggest lies
you ever knew
The virgin angel
She screams and chokes
She's drowning now
In a pool of bootleg coke
I'm getting off while my soul's still free
So screw you
And your deep blue sea

They say the Lord
Turned their sins to stone
The gold and silver fell off
The dried up bones
The golden beaches
Of my younger days
Thirty bits of silver
Sold into the poisoned waves
The soul of this place
You've taken from me
So screw you
And your deep blue sea
And your deep blue sea
I'm getting off
While my soul's still free
Yeah screw you
And your deep blue sea
And your deep blue sea

Nothing Seems To Matter No More lyrics - Chris Rea

Down by the shore
The devil rides out
You know what it is
By the way the angels are crying
Strange kind of waiting
Fear in his soul
Laughing so loud, but
Ain't nobody smiling
with dignity so far down the road
And the death of truth
Banging on the door
No nothing, nothing seems to matter no more

Well I'm thanking the Lord
I know what I am
When you know what you want
It's easy
And there for the taking
The value of gold
Just a numbers game
Whilst your ace of your riches
Laughs at your empty heart breaking
Well you say I don't care
But you got me all wrong
I just don't want to be aware I gaze
At the smile that you're faking

Guess you'll never know why
What you crave you can't buy
You say you're trying your best
But it's just a whole heap of mess
That you're making
When they change the rules
And tell you the truth
Is against the law
Nothing, oh nothing
Can ever matter no more
Oh, nothing can ever matter no more

Sometimes lyrics - Chris Rea

Sometimes there are no words
To set you free
Sometimes you have to let it go
And let it be
Sometimes there is only
A deep ocean blue
And a wave above
An endless sea

Take off on your sails
And let the wind take you
Take you where she pleases
Where she goes
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes

Sometimes all you had
Seemed lost forever
Sometimes nothing you can do can make a change
Sometimes all there is, is deep blue ocean
One pair of footprints is all that remains

Take off on your sails
And let the wind take you
Take you where she pleases
Where she goes
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes

Lampiou lyrics - Chris Rea

Dark is the morning
On this fateful day
Lord knows I tried to live
The way the good Lord say
But they cheated on me
With their book of lies
Now they're staring all the way through me
With their careless coward eyes
Now they leave me
With a choice of two
To lose their or do
What Lampiou do

What turns a good man
To the sword and gun?
When you still his dignity
Leave him nowhere to run
I hear the Devil
I hear his voice
If I pull the trigger
Is it really out of choice?
You say yes because you can walk away
Without your clothes on such a cold bleak day
God say they only get to sit on high
Because their stairways are all built on fear and lies
So if you tell me there's no other way
Maybe I ask the Devil
Maybe listen what he say

In Lampiou's way there is no return
There's no way back
And all your bridges you must burn
The toughest of decisions
Between the trigger and the knife
Does the balance of God's own justice
Need the taking of a life
Now they leave me
With a choice of two
To lose my way or do
What Lampiou do
What Lampiou do

Lucifer's Angel lyrics - Chris Rea

You say I'm still here
But inside I'm gone
Lucifer's angel
Is singing this song
And you say there's no reason
For this sad soul to be blue
But that all depends
On what you heard was true

God in his chamber
Judge is in the hall
Lucifer's Angel screams a victory call
And you say it's all shiny, shiny and new
But that all depends
On what you say is true

There a kind of change
That not many will see
Til it's too late to reason
And the Devil runs free
And you say you're the wise man
We should listen to you
But that all depends
On what you ever knew

I see a new kind of winning
And I wish you could see too
All the rules have been broken
And they're laughing at you
You say I'm thinking too heavy
There's no fearing to do
But that always depended
On what you say is true

There's a big change coming
Like you ain't seen before
Lucifer's gone missing
There's something else at your door
While you say that I worry
And that men that hide
Can never sue
While that all was depending
On what you thought
You ever knew

That's How I Know It's You lyrics - Chris Rea


When my heart skips a beat
When something moves
from my head down to my feet
When I close my eyes
And see the deep deepest blue
That's how I know
That's how I know it's you

I don't need no bell that rings
I don't need a call
I don't need no bird that sings
I don't need no spring or fall
Cos when I close my eyes
And feel a smile shining through
That's how I know
That's how I know it's you

When the storm comes in to town
It don't bother me
It used to bring me down
No it's just a rainy day
Cos when I close my eyes
And see the deep deepest blue
That's how I know
That's how I know it's you

Forever lyrics - Chris Rea

Hearing now
The sound of the waves breaking on the shore
Feel that sun
Late in the day
It's touching forever more
You and me
Together we should be
You and me
We should be together
Forever

This place in time
Can never be replaced
This chance to see
Will go without a trace
How we really are
Is how that we could be
The rest is useless pain
Let it go and you will see
We all have plans
But it's not because of
We just get full of what we really need

You and me
Together we should be
Forever
Forever

You and me
Together we should be
You and me we should be
Together
Forever

You Got Soul lyrics - Chris Rea

You got soul
Everybody knows it
You got soul
Yeah, everybody knows
You got soul
Don't you ever lose it
You got soul
Yeah, everybody knows

Everybody wants to be around you
Oh baby since I found you
I feel the same, yeah
Seen them turning their heads when you're coming
See their smiling faces
Oh you got them running, yeah
You got soul
You got soul

Everybody wants to be around you
Oh baby since I found you
I feel the same, yeah
Seen them turning their heads when you're coming
See their smiling faces
Oh you got them running, yeah
You got soul
You got soul
You got soul

Bajan Blue lyrics - Chris Rea

This dark and cold
Sure gets me down
I close my eyes
And I drift away
To a land
That I once knew
Left me bajan blue
My bajan blue

So when I'm down
I sing this song
I see the place
That it came from
The land that I
Oh that I once knew
Left me bajan blue
Oh I'm bajan blue

The big ships came
with a thousand souls
The laid back dream
Was bought and sold
The Jumbo birds
With their mighty roar
Now what I love can be more
Down on my bajan shore

But I still feel
The smiles you gave
The white sand turned
On a turquoise wave
Forever more
Oh it's only you
My bajan blue

Got To Be Moving lyrics - Chris Rea

Got to keep moving
Something driving me on

But when the night time come around

There’s no way I can still be around, yeah
Oh I got to be moving

Got to be moving

Oh I got to keep moving
Oh I just can’t stay
Somebody told me
I got it real bad
But I need to settle down
I never have
When I hear the sound of a train in the night
Or a big aeroplane with its red tail lights
Gotta to be moving
I gotta to be moving

Hey little girl
You know I love you
There’s nobody else I place above you
But when the night time come around
No way I can still be around

Heartbreaker lyrics - Chris Rea

He got a ring on his finger
Don’t let him ever point it at you
He got a ring on his finger
Take care if he’s looking at you
He ain’t no cool dream maker
Just a midnight faker
A heartbreaker
And he’s gonna put his dirt on you

He got a poison switchblade
He gonna play some tricks on you
Oh you’ll never see it coming
Never sure what he gonna do
He ain’t no cool dream maker
Just a midnight faker
A heartbreaker
And he’s gonna put his dirt on you

Walk in the bar like he never done nobody wrong
But he’ll turn like a mustang
You never see where he’s coming from
He ain’t no cool dream maker
Just a midnight faker
A heartbreaker
And he’s gonna put his dirt on you
He’s just an old heartbreaker

Wasted Love lyrics - Chris Rea

Who’s that knockin’ on my door
Who is crying
I wanna know
In sleepless nights
You turn and pray
And hide from mornings
Mornings blinding grey
Time will pass by
And still you hear
Those children cry
Tears of pain
From a sky way above
The broken heart
Of a wasted love
Wasted love

See it out on a highway
See it down in a street
See the leaders stand smiling
As it dies at their feet
Tears of pain
From a sky way above
The broken heart
Of a wasted love

Time will pass by
And still you hear
Oh those children cry
Tears of pain
From the sky way above
The broken heart
Of a wasted love
The broken heart
Of a wasted love

Cool Cool Blue lyrics - Chris Rea

Cool cool blue
Take it easy
Cool cool blue
Take it easy

Born a fighter
With a broken heart
So many time you try
You try to make a brand new start
So many tears go by
Before you realise
Well chasing too high

Will only make you cry
You got to be cool cool blue
Take it easy
You got to be cool cool blue
Take it easy

I met an angel one time
Showed me another way
She had a different kind of thinking
So I listened what she say
She say you always fighting to break free
You always crashing around
It’s your own crazy dream of freedom
That’s what keeps you chained and bound
Why don’t you be cool cool blue
Take it easy
Cool cool blue
Take it easy

Sometimes it ain’t worth what you gotta do
Sometimes it ain’t worth what
you gotta put yourself through
Take it easy
Take it easy

You got to be cool cool blue
Take it easy

Clarkson Blues lyrics - Chris Rea

Oh I’m calling out
To the king of wheels
I gotta let him know
The way I feel

Every car all shiny and new
You sell your own mother
For that what that big guy’d do
Yeah you would

Gotta give me some money
For these car-less shoes
Standing at the bus stop
With a Clarkson blues

Every kind of motor
Has ever been made
Driven to destruction
Each and every day

P. Zeros
Melt em’ down
Sure beat everybody to the best job in town
I got to get me some money for these car-less shoes
Standing at the bus stop
With a Clarkson blues, yeah
I got the Clarkson blues

Clarkson blues
Out on the track
Bust 'em up and send 'em back
Clarkson blues
Crash for free
Clarkson blues
We all want to be

Engineer
He live in fear
Bossman tell him
That the big man’s here
Hear that moto engine scream
Big boy living out our dream
I’m just some punk
With worn out shoes
Standing at the bus stop
With the Clarkson blues

Who Killed Love lyrics - Chris Rea

These streets of tears
Are all that’s left to see
Somebody made them
Now it’s our destiny
Down on the corner
A cruel wind that blows
Where the gentle smile was lost
Nobody knows
Nobody knows

Now you can die out there
By the company wall

Nobody gonna help you
If you stumble and fall
No tell me who
Who killed love
Oh won’t you tell me
Who, who killed love
Don’t let this chance get away
Why don’t you leave some
Heat to say you passed this way

They all looking for money
They all looking to be
Somebody who gets away
Somebody who breaks free
But they’re building their dreams
On a broken old floor
They can’t get one cent ahead
Each single day a little more
Everybody crying
Everybody blue

You try to find some kind of peace
Before the night was through
Building up the pressure
Losing every day
Jesus asked the question
But they looked the other way
So tell me who
Who killed love

Say a prayer for the lonely
For the sad and the blue
Say a prayer for me while your on your knees
And I’ll say a prayer for you
Say a prayer for the broken
Say a prayer for the old
Say a prayer for each other
While we save all our souls
No tell me who
Who killed love
Oh won’t you tell me please
Who, who killed love

Never Tie Me Down lyrics - Chris Rea

I got a load of bad stuff
Laying heavy on my mind
I got a smile that sometimes
I find so hard to find
I got trouble
Chasing me every day
Too scared to look out
See what the bad sings say
Well you can beat up on my busted soul
Leave it bleeding on the ground
But oh Lord you ain’t ever gonna tie me down

I got the Devil
He follows me around
He keep coming
Chasing me from town to town
I got a two ton bag of lead
Slammin’ down on me
Well, peace and love
Oh baby that ain’t never coming near me
Beat my soul
Leave it bleeding chained and bound
But let me tell you
You ain’t never gonna chain me down
Oh Lord, never tie me down

You better look out
Cos I’m always gonna be around
I’ll tell you why, I’ll tell you why, why why
Oh Lord, you ain’t never gonna chain me down

Mindless lyrics - Chris Rea

I got my teeth in the wind
Gonna take whatever come my way
Oh nothing can stop this
What that I’m feeling today
You turned us to stone

Now you’re gonna have to eat what you say
Cos we’re mindless, yeah we’re mindless

I’ve used every grain in my brain
Trying to get what you say
You had so many chances
Now the Devil he dances on your cheating ways
You turned sweet little angels
into poison looking for blood
Now we’re mindless, yeah we’re mindless

You look for someone to blame
yeah it’s always the same
With somebody like you
Nothing to say
Now you made it this way
What you put us all through
You turned sweet little angels
into poison looking for blood
Oh,we’re mindless, yeah we’re mindless
Now we’re mindless

Ain't That Just The Prettiest Thing lyrics - Chris Rea

Well ain’t that just the prettiest thing
I ever did see
Oh ain’t that just the prettiest thing
I ever did see
I don’t know what she’s doing
What’s she doing to me
But ain’t that just the prettiest thing
I ever did see

Now ain’t that just the prettiest thing
That ever caught my eye
Yeah, ain’t that just the prettiest thing
That ever caught my eye
Well I don’t know what’s come over
What’s come over me
Cos ain’t that just the prettiest thing
I ever did see

Well ain’t that just the prettiest thing
I ever did see
Ain’t that just the prettiest thing
I ever did see

Nobody But You lyrics - Chris Rea

I don’t like to be alone
I like a happy place
Any place that stops me feeling blue
Oh when my last drink is over
And gone
I’m wanting nobody but you

There’s a certain time each day
When the evening shadows fall
See them turning to the darkest violet blue
And my one and only picture
When I close my eyes
Nobody but you

Through the years nothing changes
And there’s so many that I knew
But every time it rearranges
There’s only one face
Comes shining through
Nobody but you

Through the years
Nothing changes
And there’s so many that I knew
But every time it rearranges
There’s only one face
Comes shining through
Nobody but you

Waiting For Love lyrics - Chris Rea

I saw an old soul
Out on the street
Certain kind of sad eyes
Seemed so strong and so deep
I say where are you going?
What do you do?
I need to find out
Why I’m so affected by you
A voice of an angel

Came from this battered soul
He said I’m waiting for love
Oh I’m waiting for love

There were tears in his eyes
All the different kind
So full of lies
But refusing to shine
They burned like a fire
Of what could have been
If only we’d looked
Maybe we could have seen
Voice of an angel
Came from this battered soul
He said I’m waiting for love
I’m waiting for love
Oh I’m waiting for love
Yeah, I’m waiting for love

Nobody knows, nobody cares
Everyone wants it
But nobody shares
I’m waiting for love
He said I’m waiting for love
Oh I’m waiting for love

Blue Morning In The Rain lyrics - Chris Rea

Blue morning
In the rain
It’s that rainy day feeling again
I need some heat
I need a flame
Kick off those blue
Those blue mornings
In the rain

Blue morning
In the rain
Every time you go away
When you’re not here
It’s always the same
Blue morning
Blue morning in the rain

Come back as soon as you can
Make my morning sun shine again
Until you do
It’s all blue
Mornings in the rain
Blue morning in the rain

"The Blue Jukebox" (2004)

The Beat Goes On lyrics - Chris Rea

See them talking on the corner
You'll see them every day
So many words, so many reasons
About the ship that sailed away
Was it somethingto do with bussines
What it love that done them wrong
Always somebody else to blame it seems,
For the half chance been and gone

The beat goes on,
I say the beat goes on
The beat goes on

See them drinking in the corners,
Be amazed at what they say
They've all got their tears and stories
About the big one that got away
There are always so many reasons
Why they misssed that place that day
Tales of woe and treason
About the ship that sail away

The beat goes on
Yeah, the beat goes on
And I see them everyday
Yeah, the beat goes on

Long Is The Time, Hard Is The Road lyrics - Chris Rea

Big old snake o' red tail lights
Lookin' for a drain
Pretty red, like diamond bright
become your ball and chain

If you ever reach the other side,
it will never be this way
They tie you down with your own high hopes,
you better listen what I say

Long is the time, and hard is the road
Everybody lookin' for a place
to put down their heavy load

Fat cat screamin' up above
'cause he don't get no second chance
He's passing down his reckless fear
he kick your chains and make you dance

Dance around his daydream
'till he gets to fly away
you find a dagger in your back
you better listen what I say

Long is the time, and hard is the road
Everybody lookin' for a place
to put down their heavy load

Oh, long is the time and hard is the road
Hard is the road

[solo]

Oh, long is the time and hard is the road
Everybody lookin' for a place
to put down their heavy load

Long is the time, and hard is the road.

Let's Do It lyrics - Chris Rea

We can't do it for the money,
They don't do cash no more
We can't do it because we do it so well
'Ain't nobody left to keep the score
They changed the rules
Made us look like fools
Send us lies from way above
Lets do it
Hear what I say
Lets do it
'Cos we're busted anyway
Let's do it, lets do it for the love

You've still got
your left hook
I've still got my jab
They're so dumb they never see it coming
We were the best they ever had
They slapped our faces with a belt of lies
Now you know what I'm thinking of
Let's do it... hear what I say
Let's do it... 'cos we're busted any way
Let's do it? lets do it for the love

Let's do it anyway?

You take the right, I'll take the left?
Let's do it.. let's do it for the love?

Let It Roll lyrics - Chris Rea

I am the king of your darkest night
I am the prince of your fear
I will wrap your dreams into sandstorms
You'd better know this before you come near

There is no end
to what I've become now
Way past the cold sweat of losing control
I load it up
I put it down
I let it roll

I am the priest
of your bad luck
Long gone the blood has run free
Scar upon scar until the pain doesn't know
What's worth hurting inside
What is left of me

What you think
is brand new
I just threw it your way
What you think is too big
Is too small
I've forgotten much more than
You think that you'll ever know
There is no height that is too far to fall
You'd better go home lock up your soul
Or sit down and take it
Don't try to fake it
Load it up, load it down, let it roll
Let it roll, let it roll?.

Load it up, put
it down, let it roll

Steel River Blues lyrics - Chris Rea

Wherever I go, whatever I do
There'll always be a smile I knew
Upon the grey
How it lit the sky
As we dreamed our dreams
And let the young days go by
But there'd come a time
We used to say
We'd both have to part
Just to get away
But the reasons were the same for me and you
To try to kick away the fear we knew
Call them
Steel river blues

How the years went by
Too damn fast it seems
As we followed through
Our young and desperate dreams
You know me so well and I know you
And to the world it seems we both got through
But only you and me know
What is really true
The only thing we never got to do
Kick away
Those steel river blues

You know me so well and I know you
And to the world it seems we both got through
But only you and me know what is really true
The only thing we never got to do was
Kick away
Those steel river blues

Somebody Say Amen lyrics - Chris Rea

There's a soft wind blowing through the sugar cane
And the pink fruit juice is melting
On a beach down sandy lane
And the Sunday school dresses sway
In sun-bleached harmony
Where the waves of green
Meet the waves of blue
And the preacher sets you free

It seems in prayers and money
You look for five to get you ten
Somebody say amen
Won't somebody say amen

I see the people without the money
Being peaceful with the lord
Yeah the church seems full of happiness
But the jet set's looking bored
They getting high without a penny here
They're finding peace without a dime

But the rain turns cold on the city streets
And the smiles are hard to find
Oh the pain of only wanting
For your five to get you ten
Somebody say amen
Won't somebody say amen
Amen

Blue Street lyrics - Chris Rea

Take a walk down Blue Street,
Take a walk with me
There are no dreams on Blue Street
Just what came to me
Took your daydream to the dealer
You closed your eyes and kissed his feet
Was he an angel or the devil?
Gonna find out now
On Blue Street
Blue Street is where you go
When it's over past and gone
All alone here on Blue Street
No need to find out what went wrong
on the street
When you realize the fear you feel
Is coming from the inside of your own soul
When you find out you can't escape it
The only thing you can't control
Hey this is Blue street
There sure ain't no sunny side
Drop to the paving stones
'Cos there's nowhere you can hide
Yeah this is Blue Street
Yeah this is Blue Street
Oh this is Blue Street
yeah yeah

Monday Morning lyrics - Chris Rea

Monday morning, see what you can do
Hit the freeway, take the grey and make it blue
My dream don't fight with daylight
It don't bleed for you
Keep your secret
'Til lucky Tuesday smiles for you
Hold on easy, don't you ever let him know
Monday morning,
When I get out
You ain't never gonna see me go
Monday morning, Monday morning

Don't make ambitions
That let Monday tie you down
Keep it simple
Keep it easy
Or for sure he'll bring you down
Stay cool, never Monday's fool,
Let him think you play the game
Leave Sunday
When the time is right
Oh and never see Monday again

Hold on easy, don't ever let him know
Monday morning, when I get out
You ain't never going to see me go
Oh, Monday morning, Monday morning...

Restless Soul lyrics - Chris Rea

Restless Soul
Beating like a drum
I need to know
Where she coming from
Everywhere I go she rides with me
This restless soul won't let me be

Oh restless soul

I call on the devil
I call on the saints
Tell me please
What do I push against?
I go down to the doctor
I say please give me some
Tell me where does this restless soul come from

Oh you've got to give me something
Got to take it away
'Cos it screams and it cries
And I fear what it says

Restless soul I say oh restless soul
Help this restless soul

Restless soul

Paint My Jukebox Blue lyrics - Chris Rea

Since you've been gone
I've been wondering what to do
Maybe take the weekend out
The one I promised myself
I would always do

That place you said you never liked
Or would ever choose to go
Now this change has set me free
And I'm wondering what to do
Guess I'll paint my jukebox blue

I see some light in the distant sky
Its coming from
Where we used to be
The colours you made
From the smile that you gave
Or this freedom don't feel like its setting me free
Today I feel like the biggest fool
If freedom must be without you

Now I'm standing in that very place
And I'm wondering what to do
Guess I'll paint my jukebox, paint my jukebox,
Paint my jukebox blue

Baby Don't Cry lyrics - Chris Rea

The cold axe of bad love
Sure cut you down
There's nothing to hold on to now
In this part of town

Your heart has been broken
But hear what I say
Ain't nothing but a cold night
Bringing home a new day
I know what you're feeling
What you're going through
How much it must hurt you
Like nothing else do

Don't cry, baby don't cry, the worst is over
Don't cry, baby don't cry, the worst is gone

Hey little angel, oh hear what I say
The pain that you're feeling
I swear it won't stay
'Cos I got the wisdom
Of a thousand broken bones
And I'll be here with you
So you never be alone

Don't cry, baby don't cry, the worst is over
Don't cry, baby don't cry, the worst is gone

Speed lyrics - Chris Rea

I got speed
I don't know where I'm going
But I've got everything I need
I got a picture
Trapped inside my head
How I think that it should be
Oh, I got speed

I got speed
But the man in the suit he won't let me
I got wheels
And the sound of them always sets me free
I got speed, I got speed

"Blue Street (Five Guitars)" (2003)




Are You Ready lyrics - Chris Rea

And your life
Is blowing over
A little faster every day
Better stop for a while
And it think it over
Cos you know for sure
You lost your way
Does what's around you really matter?
is there something left undone?
A simple dream you left behind you
Now the truth has got you
Undone

Are you ready?
Oh tell me
Are you ready?
Are you ready?

"Dancing Down The Stony Road" (2002)

Changing Times lyrics - Chris Rea

Changing times, changing rules
Make a wise man look a fool
Gone before no longer here
Look out for these signs of these
Changing rules
Better look out

You better look out
Look out for these changing times
Can't stop those changing times
Changing times
Cold hard rain
Everything's a changing
Nothin's going to be the same

You'd better look out
'Cos you can't stop these changing times
Nothin's going ever to be the same
You'd better look out
Look out for these changing times

Easy Rider lyrics - Chris Rea

Well now come on easy rider
Give me something
For my pain
Well now come on easy rider
Though I know you're not to blame

The dogs are out to get me
And pull me down, again

Well now come on easy rider
Turn this screaming fire
Down low
Yeah come on easy rider
Pull this pain
And let it go

This time around
Don't think that I can take it
This twisting pain
I've come to know
Easy rider
Help me
Easy rider

Stony Road lyrics - Chris Rea

This is the story
Oh this is the way
Gospel of reason
When the pain came to stay
The life of a loser
Who wins with a smile
The sinners redemption
In the tears of a child

Me & Katie
We go dancing down the stony road
See her laughing through the pain
Of such a heavy load
Me & Katie
We go dancing down the stony road

You're looking for sugar
To kill the grey
You're looking for the laughter
To take the pain away
God don't give nothing
No you got to steal your own smile
Learning to find it,
In the tears of the child

And me & Katie
We go dancing down the stony road
See her laughing through the pain
Of such a heavy load

Me & Katie
We go dancing down the stony road
Let's go dancing, let's go dancing
Dancing down that stony road

Dancing The Blues Away lyrics - Chris Rea

Beat up soul
Looking to find a smile
Ain't nobody here to give you the reason why
I need the wings of an angel
Need to find me a way to fly

Come on and dance with me baby
Dancing my blues away
Yeah dance with me baby
Dance 'til my blues can't stay
Come on and dance with me baby
Dancing my blues away

There is something worth knowing
Written behind those eyes
Well I've got tears by the truckload
Let's laugh 'til they all run dry
Let's steal the wings from those angels
And kiss what we know goodbye

Come on and dance with me baby
Dancing my blues away
Yeah dance with me baby
Dance 'til my blues can't stay
Come on and dance with me baby
Dancing my blues away

Burning Feet lyrics - Chris Rea

No standing with these burning feet
I got to kill the the fire
Got to kill the heat
I see a road and a river
I gotta go
'cos there's fire in my shoes
And you're moving too slow
For these burning feet

I got to move
Burning feet
Need a cool groove
Burning feet
Win or lose
Looking to kill the heat
Oh these burning shoes

One day they'll find me in pieces,
By the side of the track
Smoke trail behind me,
Flames from my back
This is what made me,
Yeah how I was made
Forever, in the heat
And never in the shade
Of these burning feet

Burning feet
I got to move
Burning feet
Need a cool groove
Burning feet
Win or lose
Looking to kill the heat
Oh these burning shoes

Mississippi 2 lyrics - Chris Rea

Nashville sky
In a morning sun
Somewhere up north
A new life begun
He was drawn to the twister
With a Memphis sound
Kissed by an angel
Of a music town

Jump a train from Chicago
Trace it back
With the neck of a bottle
And the groove of the tracks
Spend your life running
That angels sweet sound
Chasing the ghosts
Of a faraway town

Oh Mississippi
Running through my veins
Oh Mississippi
Never the same again

Slow Dance lyrics - Chris Rea

Well I screamed at mama,
What's that stuff going on
Yeah I screamed at mama
Where did that feeling come from
She said son I don't know what it is
But I know that's where you belong
Mama looked at me,
She smiled me a sunny day
Yeah mama looked at me
Took all my fear away
She said son now I know for sure
What you gonna do one day

It's a slow dance,
Dance of the rythym and blues
It's a slow dance,
Dance of the rythym and blues
Now I screamed at mama,
Mama tell me where did you go
Yeah I screamed for my mama,
Mama tells me what you come to know
I was born with this feeling
And it ain't going to let me go

It's a slow dance,
Dance of the rythym and blues
It's a slow dance,
Dance of the rythym and blues

When The Good Lord Talked To Jesus lyrics - Chris Rea

See me moving without warning.
Fast as mt legs can run
and I'm hanging by a thin wire,
been that way since I was young
Only the good Lord got his reasons,
for turning on his own son.

And he beat up on me real bad.
Bad as a dog can be
He took every smile that I had
And he threw it all back at me
Only the good Lord got his reasons,
Make yo cry until your eyes can't see
Well he burned down all that I had
And he left me beat and blind
Oh he dealt me pain and sorrow
And every fear that he could find
When the good Lord talked to Jesus
Guess I ain't what he had in mind
Oh when the good Lord talked to Jesus
I guess I ain't what he had in mind

Heading For The City lyrics - Chris Rea

All my friends packing up,
Loading up their Volvo's
And their pick up trucks
Going down the road,
To try their luck
So spin that dream,
Go heading for the city
Roll that dice,
Say a prayer,
Light a candle for me
When you get there,
Win or lose,
We're heading for the city

Well I got a problem hear what I say
They're telling me I got to move away
I was happy here,
They tell me I can't stay
Now whats screaming rain is heading this way
For those who sleep and choose to stay
The game they didn't know
They had to play
So win or lose
We're heading for the city
So roll that dice
Say a prayer
Light a candle for me
When you get there,
Win or lose,
We're heading for the city

So Lonely lyrics - Chris Rea

Sometimes I get ...
.... so lonely

Someday My Peace Will Come lyrics - Chris Rea

Someday
My peace will come
Oh I know
My peace will come
I will sleep like a child without pain
Without fear
Like a smile in the afternoon sun
Oh someday
My peace will come
Lord can you hear me
Oh I know you know my name
It's written in the tears
That flow from my pain

Broken hearted broken soul
All my life on the run
But someday
Yeah someday
My peace will come
Someday
My peace will come

The Hustler lyrics - Chris Rea

Time to get up
Make a move
Put the brain in gear
Cut the groove
Moving slow
With a smiling face
Never look like you want it
'Til it's right in your face

I'm the hustler
Playing my favourite game
Yeah I'm the hustler
Everybody knows my name

Well I can get all around you
While I think you stand still
The way you tell me you won't
Let's me know that you will
Last thing you tell them
Is what you came here for
The're never going to find out
'Til you way out the door
'Cos I'm the hustler
Playing my favourite game
Yeah I'm the hustler
Everybody knows my name

You got to love the work you do
How long it takes
Ain't important to you
Don't care whats in it
Loving every minute
Every minute, every hour
Every second of the day
Little by little
I see it coming my way

I'm the hustler
Playing my favourite game
Yeah I'm the hustler
Everybody knows my name

Give That Girl A Diamond lyrics - Chris Rea

Time to get up
She shines her light where just before
There was only
A cold wind blowing
She understands what makes me smile
And lets me know that
Without showing
I need to tell her, need to show her
How deep she goes

Inside of me
She is the stone that breaks the hard shell
And rings out the loudest bell
With whispered words that scream out
All the peace in me

Give that girl a diamond
Yeah give that girl a diamond
And say it's from me
A blue reflected light
Way past the darkest place
My only private night
Of fearful dreams
She is stone that stabs my shield of steel
The peace that she makes me feel
With whispered words
I need to tell her
Need to show her
How deep she goes
Inside of me

Give that girl a diamond
Give that girl a diamond
And say it's from me
