Mike Scott does just fine for me thank you...

From "bigger picture"

The continents and the seven oceans
bound the range of my emotions
My time is long but not forever
My moods are the changing wind and weather -

From "Higherbound"

I'm easy to love
but I'm harder to hold

From "Lonesome and a Long, Long Way From Home"

There is light at the end of the road I am told,
peace in the valley and a city of gold
I must be facing backwards because all I can see
is a storm-black rain cloud falling on me

From "The Pan Within"

Put your face to my window,
breathe a night full of treasure
The wind is delicious,
sweet and wild with the promise of pleasure
The stars are alive and nights like these
were born to be sanctified by you and me,
lovers, thieves, fools and pretenders

Even better live...
The town pumps on the edge of town
The whores call his name when he comes around
three sheets to the wind like a millionaire
Crawls home on his hands and knees
To three hungry mouths to feed
Their bellies as empty as the Frigidaire

Michael O'Connor
