Can't Be Tough

Baby I can't be tough on you
You're my blood, you're my brother
I can't be tough on you
But somebody's got to
Give thanks for all you're holding in your hands
It's a shame, with that brain
You could be riding high, but you found a darker side
I guess somebody's got to
I just want you to be happy
I just want you to be
Let's go outside and christen our stars again
And watch them climb from the horizon
Maybe you could give me a clue
Are you scared or are you self-assured
Are you hurting or are you being cured
C'mon, give me a clue
Coz I know that it's been rough on you
But I could never be tough on you
I know you want me to drop it
But I'm never gonna drop it
You can only do your best
And let life take care of the rest
I just want you to be happy...
Baby I can't be tough on you.

Marseille, Marseille
I looked for you today
Not a sinner in this town
Can tell me if you're still around
Just send me a tidal wave
Send me a tidal wave
Send me a tidal wave
Coz you were my last hope
Marseille
Marseille, Marseille
You've taken my will away
There's nothing for it now
But lie on the beach til the sun goes down
Just send me a tidal wave
Send me a tidal wave
Send me a tidal wave
Coz this was my last chance
Marseille
Who do you turn to
When I've looked every place for your face?
What's left to do
When you throw away everything on a whim?
Marseille, Marseille
You're not the land's end I thought you were
You may be the south
But you're north beneath another star
Just send me a tidal wave
Send me a tidal wave
Send me a tidal wave
Coz the oceans are wide
Marseille
Who do you turn to
When I've looked every place for your face?
What's left to do
When you throw away everything on a whim?
Marseille, Marseille
Just send me a tidal wave
Marseille, Marseille
Just send me a tidal wave
Marseille, Marseille
Just send me a tidal wave
Marseille, Marseille,
The oceans are wide.

I Bit a Tear
04:57

I bit a tear that turned into a laugh
I don't know where I'm at
Why am I still taking photographs
I don't know where I'm at
Whatever makes your heart sing
Is the thing you should be following
World has me like a jigsaw
With the pieces strewn
All around my empty room
Whatever makes your heart sing
Is the thing you should be following
Why so bittersweet
Every little detail sets me off again
Why so bittersweet
Every little detail, every little detail..
Here's the thread I've been unravelling
It's changing colour
No more trying to gather souvenirs
If I'd taken a step for every fucking tear
Whatever makes your heart sing
Is the thing..
Why so bittersweet
Every little detail sets me off again
Why so bittersweet
Every little detail, every little detail..

I love and fear my god
I know he's got my number
I've been at sea so long
His light just draws me deeper
Do I love life, do I fear death
You bet I do
I go up with the waves, down the other side
Up with a song, down with a sigh
Up with a prayer, down with a cry
And then I see it...
I just can't help believing
Coincidence is too strong
It seemed to follow me here
And now I'm clinging on
Do I see light, do I feel dark
You bet I do
I go up with the waves, down the other side
Up with a song, down with a sigh
Up with a prayer, down with a cry
Up with a vision, down with a fright
Up with desire, down without respite
Up with a question, down with no reply
And then I see it...
I love and fear my god
I know he's got my number
I've been at sea so long
His light just draws me deeper
