Lyrics: Paul Weller - Up In Suzes' Room

Yellow strands mingle into red
Warm air blows, down upon her soft bed
She licks my face and the feeling spreads
I'm up in Suzes' room - flowers bloom-ing-ful
I'm up in Suzes' room - where life goes so soon

She's anything that you can call free
She's everything that she wants to be
She has everything that you could want to see
I'm up in Suzes' room - flowers full in bloom
I'm up in Suzes' room - where time goes so soon
Soon, against the moon
A big sky paints - but she calls the tunes
She's cool that way - how I wish it could stay
Forever that way

No one moves - no one can
When luck rolls its' coins, they land where they stand
To make us everything that you never planned
I'm up in Suzes' room - people bloom-ing-ful
Up in Suzes' room - where life goes so soon

Paul Weller - Heavy Soul

Heavy Soul (lyrics)

We’re words upon a window
Written there in steam
In the heat of the moment
At the birth of a dream
Vapors passing really
So I’m touched by the thoughts
In the fleeting minutes after
The time that we’ve come
Come and go, you know, where the wind blows
An’ though I couldn’t define
I can only tell you that i
Got a heavy soul

Tuesdays dressed in shearling
Anchored on belief
In the sunlight on the water
Or rain upon a leaf
And I’m touched by its’ beauty
And I hope to touch you too
’cause I still seek the same things
That I once sought to be true
And you know, that where the wind blows
Tho’ I wouldn’t be lying, when I tell you that i
Got a heavy soul
It’s a joy to know
I’ve got a heavy soul

We’re words upon a window
Written there in steam
In the heat of the moment
Everything is what it seems
Vapors passing nearly
So I’m touched by the thought
That I can’t be beaten and I can’t be bought
And you’ll know..........
That where the wind blows
I don’t think I’d be lyin’
When I tell you that i
I’ve got a heavy soul

Mermaids (lyrics)

She's in my head
She's in my mind
And I'm all she says
Yes she knows me well
As well as you can
She's on my side
I often hide
In her magic hair
And there I learn again - the joy of life
The wonder of it all
And this I feel - that through her I learn
Another way to be

You take my breath, I feel consumed
Take it all - I want to know
What lies behind - your smiles and shells
Wish I knew you well

Come in my head
Come in my mind
You can only love, when you open up
To be yourself

Peacock Suit (lyrics)

Ive got a grapefruit matter
Its as sour as shit
I have no solutions
Better get used to it
I dont need a ship to sail in stormy weather
I dont need you to ruffle the feathers - of my peacock suit
Im narcissus in a puddle
In shop windows I gloat
Like a ball of fleece lining
In my camel skin coat

I dont need a ship to sail in stormy weather
I dont need you to ruffle the feathers - of my peacock suit
Did you think I should

Nemesis in a muddle
In a mirror I look
Like a streak of sheet lightnin
In my rattleskin shoes -

I dont need a ship to sail in stormy weather
I dont need you to ruffle the feathers - of my peacock suit
Did you think I should
