Bryan Ferry Lyrics
As The World Turns lyrics - Bryan Ferry
There's a place in my heart
All broken and still
Where I may wander alone.
At the end of the day
As the world turns
I turn to thoughts of home
Though you're far away I imagine
How you would smile at this romance
And sure enough
As the world turns
And so to games of chance.
Take my part in this play
You're dealing me words I never could use
That strange beginning has no ending
When curtain falls we both lose
Though we're far apart on this old carousel
The ups and downs we share
Just remember surely as the world turns
In dreams I will be there by your side.
Bitter-Sweet lyrics - Bryan Ferry
Well this is such a sad affair
I've opened up my heart
Oh so many times
But now it's closed
Oh my dear
Every salted tear it wrings
Bitter-sweet applause
But when the show's in full swing
Every once in a while
High stepping chorus lines mean I'm forgetting
Mein lullaby - Liebchen
How rich in contrast love can be
Sometimes I'm quite amused
To see it twist and turn
To taste - both sweet and dry
These vintage years!
Lovers you consume, my friend
As others their wine
Nein - das ist nicht das Ende der Welt
Gestrandet an Leben und Kunst
Und das Spiel geht weiter
Wie man weiss
Noch viele schönste Wiedersehen
And now, as you turn to leave
You try to force a smile
As if to compensate
Then you break down and cry
Broken Wings lyrics - Bryan Ferry
Through the golden sunset
Across the borderline
Stands a cross
A simple sign
There the fires of evening
Reveal so many things
But who can mend broken wings?
Southern belles, fancy rings
Divorced from many things
As the story goes
Wish I could fly
Take the ever winding
Where the morning rain
Takes a cloud from the sky
There I long to love you
Love is everything
Who can mend broken wings?
Through the night, love is blind
The light of day not kind
The sense of loss you find
No sense at all
And should you gaze and wonder
Where the eagle flies
Fallen angels might sing
Who can mend broken wings?
Crazy Love lyrics - Bryan Ferry
I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her, that's where I belong
I guess I'm running to her like a river's song
She gives me love, love, love, crazy love
She gives me love, crazy love
She's got a fine sense of humour, when I'm feeling down
And when I come to her when the sun goes down
She takes away my trouble, takes away my grief
Takes away my heartache in the night like a thief
She gives me love, love, love crazy love
She gives me love, crazy love
I guess I need her in the daytime
I guess I need her in the night
Just want to throw my arms around her
And kiss her, kiss her tight
She gives me love, crazy love
She gives me love, crazy, crazy love
A crazy love
Feel The Need lyrics - Bryan Ferry
See how I'm walkin'
See how I'm talkin'
Notice everything in me
Feel the need, feel the need in me.
I need you by my side
To be my guide
See my arms are open wide
Feel the need, feel the need in me.
Every day I need
Every day I want
Without you I'd rather die
I need you constantly
Your love takes care of me
Your love is better to me than apple pie.
Just put your hand in mine
Love me all the time
Its just so plain to see
Feel the need, feel the need in me
Four Letter Love lyrics - Bryan Ferry
One across you wake up
Two down's asleep
Three days a week you're laughing
Before you weep
I got your number
From up above
Four letter love
Four letter love
Down to the letter
Oh you'd better
Count on love
Once I was so lonely
Twice as bad as blue
Three times I burned my fingers
Nearly put the shine on you
Now living's easy
Fit like a glove
Four letter love
Four letter love
Turn on the power
With your four letter love
So listen all you lovers
Tell you what I'd do
Just say you're willin'
And count the killin'
I'm holding down on you
1...2...3...
Four letter love
Don't waste a minute
It's wise to get in a
Party of five for love
Four letter love
Help Me lyrics - Bryan Ferry
I'm a stranger far from home, won't you help me
Gotta find where I belong...
I don't wanna be alone, won't you help me
Gotta find the way to home...
I'm a stranger far from home, won't you help me
Gotta find where I belong, help me
I don't wanna be alone, won't you help me
Gotta find the way to home, help me
I'm a prisoner to the night
Life is hell in the light of the day
But where do I hide from myself
The shadow closes in
There's a power in love
There's a danger in love
But I need love to help me find a way
I'm a stranger far from home, won't you help me
Gotta find where I belong, help me
I'm a victim of the night
Sold my soul, is it never gonna pay?
I beg you now, save me from myself
Time is closing in
There's a power in love
There's danger in love
But I need love to help me find the way
I'm a stranger far from home, won't you help me
Gotta find where I belong, help me
'Cause I don't wanna be alone, don't wanna be
Gotta find a way to home, help me
Bricks without a mortar
Tearing me apart
It turns up to down
The night time into day
Wake me in the morning
Tell me from the heart
That I need love to help me find a way
I'm a stranger far from home, help me
Gotta find where I belong, help me
'Cause I don't wanna be alone, I don't wanna be
Gotta find a way to home, help me
If I Didn't Care lyrics - Bryan Ferry
If I didn't care more than words can say
If I didn't care would I feel this way
If this isn't love then why do I thrill
And what makes my head go round and round
While my heart stands still
If I didn't care would it be the same
Would my every prayer begin and end with just your name
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you
If I didn't care would it be the same
Would my every prayer begin and end with just your name
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you
In Every Dream Home A Heartache lyrics - Bryan Ferry
In every dream home a heartache
And every step I take
Takes me further from heaven
Is there a heaven?
I'd like to think so
Standards of living
They're rising daily
But home oh sweet home
It's only a saying
From bell push to faucet
In smart town apartment
The cottage is pretty
The main house a palace
Penthouse perfection
But what goes on
What to do there
Better pray there
Open plan living
Bungalow ranch style
All of its comforts
Seem so essential
I bought you mail order
My plain wrapper baby
Your skin is like vinyl
The perfect companion
You float my new pool
De luxe and delightful
Inflatable doll
My role is to serve you
Disposable darling
Can't throw you away now
Immortal and life size
My breath is inside you
I'll dress you up daily
And keep you till death sighs
Inflatable doll
Lover ungrateful
I blew up your body
But you blew my mind
Oh Those Heartaches
Dreamhome Heartaches
Is Your Love Strong Enough? lyrics - Bryan Ferry
Just one step at a time
And closer to destiny
I knew at a glance
There'd always be a chance for me
With someone I could live for
Nowhere I would rather be
Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
And stranger than fantasy
I knew from the start
It had to be the place for me
Someone that I would die for
There's no way I could ever leave
Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Jealous Guy lyrics - Bryan Ferry
(originally by John Lennon)
I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy
I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy
I was trying to catch your eye
I thought that you was trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy
Ladytron lyrics - Bryan Ferry
You've got me girl on the run around run around
Got me all around town
You've got me girl on the run around
And it's getting me down, getting me down
Lady if you want to find a lover
Then you look no further
For I'm gonna be your only
Searching at the start of the season
And my only reason
Is that I'll get to you
I'll find some way of connection
Hiding my intention
Then I'll move up close to you
I'll use you and I'll confuse you
And then I'll lose you
Still you won't suspect me
Lowlands Low lyrics - Bryan Ferry (feat. Antony)
Our packet is the island lass
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
There's a laddie howlin' at the main topmast
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
The old man he's from Barbados
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
He's got the name of Hammer Toes
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
He gives is us bread as hard as brass
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Our junk's as salt as a bailer's arse
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
The monkey's raised in a soldier's clothes
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Now, where he got 'em from, no one knows
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
We'll haul 'em high and let 'em dry
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
We'll trice 'em up into the sky
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
It's up aloft that yard must go
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Up aloft from down below
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Lowlands, me boys, and up she goes
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Get changed, me boys, for your shore-going clothes
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
Low lands lowlands lowlands low
She Belongs To Me lyrics - Bryan Ferry
She's got everything she needs
She's an artist
She don't look back
She's got everything she needs
She's an artist
She don't look back
She can take the dark
Out of the nighttime
And paint the daytime black
You will start out standing
Proud to steal
Her anything she sees
You will start out standing
Proud to steal
Her anything she sees
But you will wind up peeking
Through her keyhole
Down upon your knees
She never stumbles
She's got no place to fall
She never stumbles
She's got no place to fall
She's nobody's child
The Law can't touch her at all
She wears an Egyptian ring
That sparkles before she speaks
She wears an Egyptian ring
That sparkles before she speaks
She's a hypnotist collector
You are a walking antique
Bow down to her on Sunday
Salute her when
Her birthday comes
Bow down to her on Sunday
Salute her when
Her birthday comes
For Halloween give her a trumpet
And for Christmas
Buy her a drum
She's Leaving Home lyrics - Bryan Ferry
Wednesday morning at five o'clock
As the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say no more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen
Clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning the back door key
Stepping outside she is free
She (we gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives)
Home (we gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy our baby's gone
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly
How could she do this to me
She (we never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)
Home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years
Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade
She (what did we do that was wrong)
Is having (we didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (fun is the thing money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied for so many years (bye bye)
She's leaving home (bye bye)
The Bogus Man lyrics - Bryan Ferry
The bogus man is on his way
As fast as he can run
He's tired but he'll get to you
And shoot you with his gun
Focussed his mind
On something he cared about
But it came out a shout
Just like before
The bogus man is at your heels
Now clutching at your coat
You must be quick now hurry up
He's scratching at your throat
Concealed his doubt
By skilful evasion
But he couldn't find out
About deception
The bogus man is on his way
As fast as he can run
He's tired but he'll get to you
And show you lots of fun
While My Heart Is Still Beating lyrics - Bryan Ferry
All of those people
Everywhere
Ever so needing
Where's it all leading?
Tell me where
Nothing insincere
I'd better have pity
I'd better go easy
I never will lay down
While my heart is still beating
Where's it all leading?
Walk on air
Am I still dreaming
Where's it all leading?
Words to spare
Lost in their meaning
I'd better be strong now
I'd better stop dreaming
My heart has flown away now
Will it never stop bleeding?
Everywhere
Ever so needing
Where's it all leading?
Tell me where
Nothing insincere
I'd better have pity
I'd better go easy
I never will lay down
While my heart is still beating
Where's it all leading?
Walk on air
Am I still dreaming
Where's it all leading?
Words to spare
Lost in their meaning
I'd better be strong now
I'd better stop dreaming
My heart has flown away now
Will it never stop bleeding?
