@ALBUM: "Together Alone"
by Crowded House
Released 11/10/93

@SONG: "Kare Kare"

I was standing on a wave, then I made the drop
I was lying in a cave in the solid rock
I was feeling pretty brave 'til the lights went off

[CHORUS:
Soon
I know this comes too soon
in a valley lit by the moon]

We left a little dust on his Persian rug
We gathered up our clothes, got the washing done
In a long forgotten place, who'll be the first to run?

[CHORUS]

I was floating on a wave, then I made the drop
I was climbing up the walls,
waiting for the band to start
You can say the magic words
I've got my senses on
And this is the only place that I always run from

[CHORUS]



@SONG: "In My Command"

You're standing in a deep dark hole
Beneath a sky as black as coal
It's just the fear of losing control
You know so well
Miss it when the morning comes
Be submissive just this once
Imagine there is something to be done
Some truth to tell

[CHORUS:
I would love
To trouble you in your time of need
Lose your way
It's a pleasure when you're in my command]

Juggle like a diplomat
Struggle to hold onto your hat
Swinging like an acrobat
But time will tell
The clock is ticking on the wall
Listen to the rise and fall
Close your eyes and hear the call you know so well

[CHORUS]

Put on your wings
You're responsible for everything

Desolate in anger and safe in isolation
You're about to be the victim of a holy visitation
By the rights that I've been given

Put on your wings
You're not responsible for anything
I would love
To trouble you in your time of need
Lose your way
It's a pleasure when you're in my command
When you're in my command
In my command

_____________
______I don't tell the difference

When you're in my command
In my command.


@SONG: "Nails In My Feet"

My life is a house
You crawl through the window
Skip across the floor and into the reception room
You enter the place of endless persuasion
Like a knock on the door
When there's ten or more things to do

Who is that calling?
You my companion
Run to the water on a burning beach
And it brings me relief

Pass through the walls
To find my intentions
Circle 'round in a strange, hypnotic state
I look into space
There is no connection
A million points of light
And a conversation I can't face

Cast me off one day
To lose my inhibition
Sit like a lap dog on the edge of his knee
Wear the nails on your feet

I woke up the house
Stumbled in sideways
The lights went on and everybody screamed "Surprise!"
The savage review
It left me gasping
But it warms my heart to see that you can do it too

Total surrender
Your touch is so tender
Your skin is like water on a burning beach
And it brings me relief, it brings me relief, it brings me relief

Like a night in your mind
It brings me relief
In the back door
Under the stars
And the scenery is my flaw
In the back room
Under the stars
And the scenery is my flaw



@SONG: "Black and White Boy"

Black and white boy
Black and white boy
You're so extreme
You're so confused
I'm coloring in
Whatever mood I'm in
I could be still
In touch with you

And you're full of the wondrous spring
It's all sweetness and lightness you bring
And a room full of people fall to your infinite charm
But when darkness should quickly descend
You go crying, my miserable friend
To the depths of despair you will crawl
Black and white boy

Black and white boy
Black and white boy
You're so extreme
You're so confused
I'm coloring in
Whatever mood I'm in
I could be still
In touch with you

When you shake off the shadows of night
And your eyes are so clear and so bright
You'll make fools of the liars and creeps
Put a rose in my cheeks
But when demons have climbed on your back
You are vicious and quick to attack
And you put on a wonderful show
Do you really, really think I don't know?
Black and white boy

Black and white boy

And you run like a cat to the cream
And you're acting so nice it's obscene
You put on a wonderful show
Do you really, really think I don't know?
Black and white boy



@SONG: "Fingers of Love"

Can you imagine this
An itch to sensitive to scratch
The light that falls through the cracks
An insect to delicate to catch
I hear the endless murmur
Every blade of grass that shivers in the breeze
And the sound that comes to carry me
Across the land and over the sea

And I can't look up
Fingers of love move down
And I can't look back
Fingers of love move down

Colour is its own reward
Colour is its own reward
The chiming of a perfect chord
Let's go jumping overboard
Into waves of joy and clarity
Your hands come out to rescue me
And I'm playing in the shallow water
Laughing while the mad dog sleeps

And I can't look up
Fingers of love move down
And I won't be hit
Fingers of love move everywhere

There is time yet
Fall by the way
From the cradle to the grave
From a palace to the gutter
From beneath the dying waves
To the sun like fingers of love

Through waves of joy and clarity
A fallen angel walked on the sea
And I'm playing in the shallow water
Laughing while the mad dog sleeps

And I can't look up
Fingers of love move down
And I won't be hit
Fingers of love move everywhere

There is time yet
For you to find me
And all I want
Fingers of love move down




@SONG: "Pineapple Head"

Detected his flat
No longer is always flat out
Got the number of
Getaway car didn't get very far

As lucid as hell
This image is moving so fast
Like a fever
So close to the bone
I don't feel too well

And if you choose
To take that path

[CHORUS:
I will play you like a shark
And I'll clutch at your heart
I'll come flying like a spark
To enflame you]

Sleeping alone
For pleasure, the pineapple head
It spins and it spins
Like a number I hold
Don't remember if she was my friend
It was a long time ago

And if you choose
To take that path

[CHORUS]

Sleeping alone
For pleasure, the pineapple head
It spins and it spins
Like a number I hold
Don't remember if she was my friend
It was a long time ago

And if you choose
To take that path
Would you come to make me pay?

[CHORUS]



@SONG: "Locked Out"

I've been locked out
I've been locked in
But I always seem to come back again
When you're in that room
What do you do?
I know that I will have you in the end

And the clouds
They're crying on you
And the birds are offering up their tunes
In a shack as remote as a mansion
You escape into a place where nothing moves

And I've been locked out
And I know we're through
But I can't begin to face up to the truth
I wait so long
For the walls to crack
But I know that I will one day have you back

And the hills
Are as soft as a pillow
And they cast a shadow on my bed
And the view
When I look through my window
Is an altar place I'm praying to for the living and the dead

My hidden valley shines in the morning sun
I send a message out to my only one

Yet I've been locked out
And I know we're through
But I can't begin to face up to the truth
I wait so long
For the walls to crack
But I know that I will one day have you back
(Yes, I will)

And I work
Like bees in the honey
Every night I circle like the moon
It's an act
Of simple devotion
But it can take forever when you've got something to prove

I've been locked out
I've been locked out
I've been locked out



@SONG: "Private Universe"

No time, no place to talk about the weather
The promise of love is hard to ignore
Who said the chance wasn't getting any better
The labour of love is ours to endure
The highest branch on the apple tree
It was my favourite place to be
I could hear them breaking free
But they could not see me

[CHORUS:
I will run for shelter
Endless summer lift the curse
It feels like nothing matters
In our private universe]

I have all I want, is that simple enough?
A whole lot more I'm thinking of
Every night about six o'clock
Birds come back to the pond to talk
they talk to me, birds to talk to me
if I go down on my knees

[CHORUS]

It feels like nothing matters
In our private universe

And it's a pleasure that I have known
And it's a treasure that I have gained
And it's a pleasure that I have known

It's a tight squeeze, but I won't let go
Time is on the table and the dinner's cold

[CHORUS] (x 2)



@SONG: "Walking on the Spot"

The odd times we slip
We slither down the dark hall
Fingers point from old windows
An eerie shadow falls
I'm walking on the spot
To show that I'm alive
Moving every bone in my body
From side to side

[CHORUS:
Will we be in our minds when the dawn breaks
Can we look the milkman in the eye
The world is somehow different, you have all been changed
Before my very eyes]

Walk around your home
Pour yourself a drink
Fire one more torpedo, baby
Watch the kitchen sink
You're lounging on the sofa, maybe
See the living room die
The dishes are unwashed and broken
All you do is cry

[CHORUS]

See the living room die
The dishes are unwashed and broken
All you do is cry

[CHORUS]



@SONG: "Distant Sun"

Tell me all the things you would change
I don't pretend to know what you want
When you come around and spin my top
Time and again, time and again

No fire where I lit my spark
I am not afraid of the dark
Where your words devour my heart
And put me to shame, put me to shame

[CHORUS:
When your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
The dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone]

Still so young to travel so far
Old enough to know who you are
Wise enough to carry the scars
Without any blame, there's no one to blame

It's easy to forget what you learned
Waiting for the thrill to return
Feeling your desire burn
And drawn to the flame

[CHORUS]

The dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

And I'm lying on the table
Washed out in a flood
Like a Christian fearing vengeance from above
I don't pretend to know what you want
But I offer love

Seven worlds will collide
Whenever I am by your side
The dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

As time slips by
And you'll wonder
Wonder only once in your mind
As time slips by



@SONG: "Catherine Wheel"

No night to stay in
Bad moon is rising again
Dice rolls
And you burn
Come down I fear
As that cold wheel turns

I know what I know
Sad clone's been sleeping around
To stroke the right nerve
Whose needs do I serve
As Catherine's wheel turns

She was always the first to say gone
She's got her catherine wheels on
Always the first to say gone

Go kindly with him
To his blind apparition
Whose face creases up
With age gone grey
He'll back here one day

She was always the first to say gone
She's got her catherine wheels on
Always the first to say gone
She's got her catherine wheels on
Wheels on
Catherine wheels

She's gone
Vanished in the night
Broke off the logic of light
He woke
Tore the covers back
Found he was empty inside
So they were told
When the moon would rise
The best time to leave with your soul
She's gone
But towards the light
Watching her whole life unfold
Bruises come out dark

So strong was his hold on her
Regarded by some as his slave
He spoke as in a stranger's tongue
To spare us and drive you away
Bruises come out dark



@SONG: "Skin Feeling"

I like the smell of that shot
I like the way it serves me
I like the pigment in your skin
I like the way it moves me
I like kids when they're asleep
Their little arms around you
I like the way we play games
Don't lose that skin feeling

[CHORUS:
I'm looking old, I'm feeling young
It's the truth , my child
My second life has just begun
with this ____ girl]

I like black and I like red
I like that orange circle
I like the things that you said
When you were misbehaving
I like the people on TV
But no one looks like me
I love you and you love me
Don't lose that skin feeling

[CHORUS]

I love the pigment in your skin
I love the way it moves me
I like the smell of that shot
I like the way it serves me
I like the things that you said
When you were misbehaving
I love you and you love me
Don't lose that skin feeling

It's the truth my child
Let me hold you now


@SONG: "Together Alone"

Together alone
Above and beneath
We were as close
As anyone can be
Now you are gone
Far away from me
As is once will always be
Together alone

Together alone
Shallow and deep
Holding our breath
Paying death no heed
I'm still your friend
When you are in need
As is once will always be
Earth and sky
Moon and sea
