about

Recorded live at the Temple bar - Queen St, Auckland, New Zealand in 1999

lyrics

emily smiles through bloodshot eyes
says come play with me
i’m not supposed to notice
i’m not supposed to see ............. it’s unreal

smoke again and reminise
past lives of troubles and bliss
bright eyed girls running round the world...........all come home

all draw together
all write a line
all hold a candle to the milky way

this smile is wearing thin
youe eyes dancing all over him
you turn your back but your eyes see in..................things you left unspoken
boy asleep in the next room
maybe he’s listening
my voice drops lower still...............you win

all draw together
all write a line
all hold a candle to the milky way
ring ring a rosie
all fall down
for another day

I found my toungue on your neck last night
biting and licking and holding on tight
I found your sweet tasting lip................with my toungue tip

all draw together
all write a line
all hold a candle to the milky way
ring ring a rosie
all fall down
for another day

the song that you sung
the feeling in
the places we went to
the noise the din
keeping it quiet
holding it in until................I’m barely even moving air

all join together ......... all form a line
hold up our candles......... to the milky way
ring ring a rosie .........all fall down
for another day
