Video: Can You Heal Us (Holy Man)


Lyrics: Can You Heal Us (Holy Man)

Crystal words that hang so fine - But none will stop us falling
Pulling faster all the time - Powerless to warnings
If you feel the hand of God - Can you guide it holy man?
But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement
Still saying! Daddy don't weep Momma don't cry
Everybody gets their time
Don't be sad don't be blue - Pray for me
I'll do the same for you

Split the Father and the Son - Hand words to ease them
If you have the hand of God - Can you heal us holy man?
But you are only flesh and blood - Waiting too for judgement

Still saying!
Hang on tight hang on strong
How much longer can this go on
But don't be sad don't be blue - It's one more thing set to confuse

Daddy don't weep Momma don't cry
Every fear must have its time
Don't be sad don't be blue - Pray for me
I'll do the same for you.

Can you bring the hand of God?
Can you stop the killing?
Get us back to hope and love - Never more be needed -

Still saying!
Bloods gone bad bad to worse
Worse to bad and back again
But don't be sad don't be blue - It's one more thing sent to confuse

Momma don't weep Daddy don't cry
Every fear must have its time
Don't be sad don't be blue - Pray for me I'll do the same for you.

Paul Weller: Out Of The Sinking

Live performance by Paul Weller of Out Of The Sinking on The Late Show broadcast on BBC2 in 1994.

Video: Paul Weller: Out Of The Sinking


Lyrics: Paul Weller - Out Of The Sinking

Past midnight's hold -
Where the world's awaiting -
I'll wait for you love -
But I close my eyes, as there's pain too in paradise -
Hey baby say - just what you're thinking -
Know I know it - yeh, feel I'm sinking -
Know I feel it - I know you feel it too -
Across the water, there's a boat that -
will take us away.

It is shining for me
All I need to be
But I can't find the key
The one to make me believe-

Late at night -
When the world is dreaming -
Way past the stars -
That ignore our fate & all twinkle too late to save us -
so we save ourselves.

Hey baby say - just what you're thinking
Know I know it - yeh, feel I'm sinking
Know I feel it - I know you feel it too -
Across the water, there's a boat that -
Will take us away -

Far from the madness - out of the sadness
Into sunlight - out of the sinking -
You know I feel it,
I know you it too -
Across the water, there's a boat that will take us away -
And there we will stay

Paul Weller - Wild Wood

Yolanda Charles on Bass.

Video: Paul Weller - Wild Wood

Lyrics: Paul Weller - Wild Wood

High tide - mid afternoon
People fly by, in the traffics boom
Knowing - where you're blowing
Getting to where, you should be going.
Don't let, them get you down
Making you feel, guilty about
Golden rain, bring you riches
All the good things - you deserve now.

Climbing, forever trying
Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood
Now theres no justice
There's only yourself - that you can trust in
And I said - high tide, mid afternoon
People fly by, in the traffics boom
Knowing - just where you're blowing
Getting to where, you should be going

Day by day, your world fades away
Waiting to feel - all the dreams that say
Golden rain, will bring you riches
All the good things - you deserve now - and I say
Climbing, forever trying
Find your way out - of the wild, wild wood.
