WE ALL START OUT SO BEAUTIFUL P. PASCOE: words & P. DREDGE: music
SEE THE OLD SCHOOL PHOTO
THE PRECIOUS SPARK IN THE EYES OF MOST
WHO’D’VE EVER THOUGHT THAT LATER
SOME WOULD LOOK LIKE A SHADOW OF A GHOST
OF A PROMISE THAT SET SAIL
INTO AN OCEAN OF POSSIBILITIES
A LETTER IN THE MAIL
WHAT HAPPENED ON THE WAY
WHEN WE ALL START OUT
WE ALL START OUT SO BEAUTIFUL
SHAKING BEHIND OUR FENCES
EARLY BELIEFS THEY CRUMBLE INTO DUST
WE SURVIVE BY RECREATING
AND WE SURVIVE COS WE KNOW THAT WE MUST
WE CARRY ON ONE STEP ONE AT A TIME
NEW PLANS EVERY DAY
WHAT HAPPENS ALONG THE WAY
WHEN WE ALL START OUT
WE ALL START OUT SO BEAUTIFUL
WE ALL START OUT SO BEAUTIFUL

HOPE AND FORGIVENESS by P. PASCOE words & music
SEAGULLS FLYING POWDER BLUE SKY
CITY SO SAD WONDER WHY
TAXIS AND THE TATTOOS THE DRUGS AND THE BOOZE
BARREN FIXED STARES THERES SO MUCH TO LOSE
LIKE HOPE FOR THE FUTURE
FORGIVENESS FOR THE PAST
NOW’S THE TIME TO NURTURE
HOPE IT’LL LAST
CARS AND THE CONCRETE GRAFFITI AND RUST
THE PICTURES COMPLETE, I HOPE WE CAN TRUST
IN WHAT’S WRITTEN ON THE FACES MY LITTLE ONE
SUNSHINE IN EYES, SPRINGTIMES BEGUN
FOR THE NEXT GENERATION, THE ONES BEYOND THAT
BUILT US UP FROM THE RUINS WHERE IT’S FALLEN SO FLAT
WE’VE ALWAYS GOT HOPE NEVER SAY NEVER
AND WHILE WE’VE GOT HOPE THIS GATES NOT SHUT FOREVER

LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES P. PASCOE: words P. DREDGE: music
THE TRUEST MESSAGE IN THE SKY
IN THE CLOUDS ABOVE THE TOWN
AND ALL THE COLOURS HELP US TRY
TO WIPE AWAY OUR FROWN
AS THE RAIN WASHES AWAY THE STAIN
OF LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES
THE TOUGHEST LESSON EVER LEARNED
WHEN GIVEN HALF A CHANCE
IS NOT TO LOVE, JUST WALK AWAY
WITHOUT A BACKWARD GLANCE
LET THE SUNSHINE TAKE AWAY THE PAIN
OF LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES
ALL THE MEMORIES SLOWLY FADE
THOUGH WE TRY TO KEEP THEM BRIGHT
SO THEN WE’RE STANDING IN THE SHADE
AND DO WHAT WE THINK’S RIGHT
LET OUR HEARTS BE GLAD AND WARM AND RECALL
OF LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES
IT MUST BE IN OUR DNA
AND IN OUR MEMORY BANKS
THERE’S GOT TO BE ANOTHER WAY
TO SAVE THE SHIP BEFORE IT SINKS
THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE LIES AHEAD
FOR LIVING IN THE NOW
BECAUSE WE ARE A LONG TIME DEAD
WE’LL MAKE IT WORK SOMEHOW
THEN THE RAIN WILL WASH AWAY THE STAIN
OF LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES
LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES
LONG FORGOTTEN TIMES

IT’S TIME words & music by P.PASCOE
THERE'S THIS PEACE THAT I GET AND I KNOW THAT WE'RE BLESSED
AS THE SUN SETS OVER THE BAY
SAW A DARK SILHOUETTE OF A SEABIRD I GUESS
HIS WORK IS DONE FOR THE DAY
AND AS I HEAD FOR HOME I FIND MY THOUGHTS HAVE ROAMED
TO A COLD WINTERS NIGHT BY THE WARM FIRE BRIGHT
YET IT'S A LONELY SCENE I SEE
NO ONE IS THERE JUST A ROCKING CHAIR
AND A CLOCK - ITS TICKING NOW. IT’S TIME
NOW MY THOUGHTS RACE AHEAD OF MY FEET AS THEY TREAD
IN THE DEEP PURPLE TWILIGHT I SMILE
IT’S LIKE THE REALM OF THE DEAD OR MY WARM COSY BED
IT’S LIKE WALKING THROUGH A DREAM FOR A WHILE
WE KNOW ONE DAY OUR TIME WILL COME BUT UNTIL THEN IT'S SOME WHERE
ON A HILL FAR AWAY WHERE THE OLD ONES SAY
YOU CAN FIND A PIECE OF THE MOON
THERE’LL STILL COME A DAY WHEN WE’LL FIND A WAY
TO LIVE IN PEACE IT CAN'T COME TO SOON. IT’S TIME
NO YOU CAN’T DO TOO MUCH WHEN LOVES TENDER TOUCH
CALLS AND KNOCKS US OFF OUR FEET FOR A WHILE
AND THE FEELING IS SUCH THAT WE JUST SIT AND WATCH
AS THE PIECES OF OUR LIFE ARE REFILED
IT'S OUT OF OUR CONTOL, WE KNOW SO WE JUST LET GO
OF THE LIFE THAT WE'VE BUILT AND THE DREAMS WE'VE HELD
THEY’LL ALL TURN OUT DIFFERENTLY
WELL OUR PLANS ARE ALL FELLED, ONCE AGAIN THE FIELDS ARE TILLED
THE EARTH FOLLOWS THE RIVER TO THE SEA. IT’S TIME. IT’S TIME

I DO words & music by P. DREDGE
DO YOU EVER GET THE FEELING WHEN YOU’RE DRVING TO WORK
TO JUST KEEP ON DRIVING PAST THE ROAD WHERE YOU WORK?
DRIVE DOWN THE CITY STREETS AND THEN HEAD OUT OF TOWN
JUST KEEP ON DRIVING ‘TIL THE OLD CAR BREAKS DOWN
WELL, I DO I DO I DO
DO YOU EVER GET THE FEELING WHEN YOU’RE DRIVING AROUND TOWN
TO JUST KEEP DRIVING AND NOT SLOW DOWN?
KEEP ON DRIVING FROM PILLAR TO POST
AND WHEN THE FUEL TANK’S EMPTY, START WALKING TO THE COAST
WELL, I DO I DO I DO
DO YOU EVER WATCH PEOPLE DRIVING TO WORK?
DO YOU EVER WONDER WHERE THEY GO?
SO MANY STORIES IN SO MANY CARS
DO YOU EVER WANT TO JUST SAY NO?
I DO I DO I DO

JUST ABOUT ENOUGH (TO MAKE YOU CRY)
words & music ©P.PASCOE
THE EARLY MORNING SUN IS CLIMBING UP BEHIND THE TREES
THE MIST RISES ABOVE THE RIVER FLOATING BY
THERE’S A MUTED BIRD CALL ON A VAGUE WHISPER OF A BREEZE
IT’S JUST ABOUT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU CRY
OUR GROWING FAMILY ARE RACING ON TOWARD THEIR TEENS
YESTERDAY IT SEEMS HAS LONG GONE
WHEN WE HELD THEM TENDERLY AS BABES, BETWEEN OUR BROKEN SLEEP
THESE MEMORIES WE KEEP OF YOUNG ONES SO FOND
HOW PRECIOUS THE DAYS ARE BETWEEN THE PAST AND FUTURE SO FAR
IT’S YOUR COMPANY I SOUGHT IT’S OUR LOVE THAT WE BOUGHT
I'M SO HAPPY BUT IT’S JUST ABOUT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU CRY
MEMORIES LINGER ON, A START/STOP MOVIE OF OUR YOUTH
AS WE FOUND OUR TRUTHS AND THE KIDS REMIND US
OF THE CAREFREE TIMES OF YESTERDAYS AS THEY FILTER THROUGH
OUR LOVE FOREVER TRUE, ROLLING ON
I LOOK INTO YOUR CALM EYES NO MATTER HOW LIFE TRIES
TO SHAKE US FROM OUR PEACE, OUR LOVE WILL NEVER CEASE
I’M SO HAPPY BUT IT’S JUST ABOUT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU CRY
THE LONELY TIMES HAVE DRIFTED AWAY, NOW YOURE HANGING ON MY ARM
I’M STILL LOST TO YOUR CHARMS AFTER ALL THIS TIME
YOUR SMILE REMINDS ME OF HOW WE SAY THE HAPPY TIMES REMAIN
AT THE FOREFRONT OF OUR BRAIN, SADNESS GONE
HOW PRECIOUS THE DAYS ARE BETWEEN THE PAST AND FUTURE SO FAR
IT’S YOUR COMPANY I SOUGHT AND IT’S OUR LOVE THAT WE BOUGHT
IM SO HAPPY BUT IT’S JUST ABOUT ENOUGH IT’S JUST ABOUT ENOUGH
IT’S JUST ABOUT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU CRY

TIMELESS TIME P. PASCOE: words P. DREDGE : music
I WANT TO LEAVE THE RUSH
I WANT SOME HILLS OF HUSH
I WANT TO LEAVE THE CRUSH
I’M SO OVER FEELING SLACK AND LOST
THE RIVER RUNS FREE AND CLEAR
MILES AWAY FROM HERE
AND WHEN I’M THERE IT'S TIMELESS TIME
ENDLESS MELODY AND RHYME
TIMELESS TIME
RUNNING ON THE SPOT I’M GETTING NOWHERE
SLOWLY LOSING THE PLOT I GOTTA GO WHERE
THE MINUTES DON’T SEEM TO COUNT, IT’S A NIGHTMARE
TUMBLING INTO SECONDS, I KNOW IT’S NOT FAIR
TIMELESS TIME
MY NEVER SEEM TO MATTER
IN THE WIND, THEY ONLY SCATTER,
NO MORE THAN A SHADOW IN THE WIND
A FLEETING MEMORY FROM HERE
TIMELESS TIME

THIS DREAM WILL DO words & music by P.PASCOE
AND SO, MY FRIENDS IVE REACHED AN END
THIS PATH’S LOST TO THE SNOW
ALTHOUGH I’VE FOUND THIS RAINBOW’S END
THERE’S STILL SOME WAY TO GO
WON'T LET THIS HOLD ME BACK A MOMENT LONGER
LOOK OUT I’M COMING THROUGH
THE THINGS THAT DONT KILL US ONLY MAKE US STRONGER
I KNOW ITS TRUE - HOW BOUT YOU?
FROM WHAT I HEAR YOU'RE DOING WELL
YOU TELL ME THIS AND YET
BETWEEN YOUR WORDS , YOUR HEARTFELT SELL
I’M SENSING SOME REGRET
DON’T LET IT HOLD YOU BACK A MOMENT LONGER
LOOK OUT YOU'RE COMING THROUGH
THE THINGS THAT DONT KILL US ONLY MAKE US STRONGER
WE KNOW ITS TRUE THIS DREAM WILL DO
THIS DREAM WILL DO
COS I’VE GOT A FEELING I CAN’T IGNORE
WON'T GO AWAY DONT KNOW, CAN’T SAY WHAT’S IN STORE
BUT LOOKING AROUND. AMONGST MY PEERS
I’VE FOUND NO FRIENDS LIKE YOU
YET LOOKING BACK THROUGH COUNTLESS TEARS
WE FIND THIS DREAM WILL DO IT’LL HAVE TO
DON'T LET IT HOLD YOU BACK A MOMENT LONGER
LOOK OUT WERE COMING THROUGH
THE THINGS THAT DON'T KILL US ONLY MAKES US STRONGER
WE KNOW THAT'S TRUE, IT SHOWS US TO
A PLACE WHERE WE WAKE UP AND FIND
THIS DREAM WILL DO
WHERE WE FIND THAT WE’VE BEEN SO BLIND
NOT ONLY WILL THIS DREAM DO
WE’RE SO LUCKY TOO.

YOU GOTTA BE FREE P.PASCOE: words P. DREDGE: music
WHEN YOU FEEL IT’S ALL BEEN DONE
AND YOU FEEL YOUR RACE HAS RUN
WHEN ALL YOU SEE YOU’VE SEEN BEFORE
YOU’RE QUITE SURE THERE’S NOTHING MORE
THAT’S WHEN THERE MAY BE A TAP ON YOUR SHOULDER
COULD BE THE START OF SOMETHING NEW
YOU GOTTA BE FREE YOU GOTTA SEE
YOU GOTTA BE FREE YOU GOTTA SEE
PLANS, JOKES, HOLIDAYS AND GAMES
WORK WHEN SIMON SAYS
DO THIS DO THAT, WHY NOT TRY SOMETHING NEW
BY AND BY
THEN YOU’LL SEE IT’S NOT ALL DONE
THROUGH THE CLOUDS THERE IS A SUN
THEN BEFORE YOU KNOW YOU’LL SEE
THERE’S SO MUCH MORE FOR YOU TO BE
THAT’S WHEN THERE MAY BE A TAP ON YOUR SHOULDER
COULD BE THE START OF SOMETHING NEW
YOU GOTTA BE FREE YOU GOTTA SEE
YOU GOTTA BE FREE YOU GOTTA SEE
YOU GOTTA BE FREE

PICTURES FALLING words & music by P. PASCOE
IT’S A DARK AND LONELY NIGHT
THE STARS ARE GOLD AND BRIGHT
NOT A WHISPER NOT A PEEP
EVERYONE IS FAST ASLEEP
THERE'S A LANGUAGE WE ALL SHARE
WHEN WE REST WITHOUT A CARE
AND THE MOVIE STARTS AGAIN
WAY MORE THAN JUST PRETEND
ALL THE PICTURES FALLING
AND THE DISTANT VOICES CALLING
I’M NOT SURE IF WE’LL UNDERSTAND
DIFFERENT FIGURES PULL US THROUGH
KALEIDOSCOPES OF COLOURS
FROM THE PALETTE OF AN UNKNOWN HAND
AND IT’S LIKE WE'RE SOFTLY SHAKEN
THEN SLOWLY WE AWAKEN FROM OUR SLEEP
WE KNOW WE'LL BE ALRIGHT
WE’LL RETURN HOME FROM OUR FLIGHT
AS WE ARE LEAD ALONG THE WAY
AND THE STORY SEEMS TO SAY
THERE’S SOMETHING IT’LL GIVE US
AS WE ARE WALKING THROUGH THE RIVERS
IN OUR SLEEP TRYING TO UNDERSTAND
AS OUR HEAD RESTS ON OUR PILLOW
WELL THE BED FEELS SOMEHOW SHALLOW
THEN IT’S DEEP, SO HOLD MY HAND
AND IT’S LIKE WE'RE SOFTLY SHAKEN
THEN SLOWLY WE AWAKEN FROM OUR SLEEP
IN THE MORNING WHEN YOU'RE YAWNING
YOU WAKE BUT THERES NO END
RED DAY DAWNING, SHEPHERD’S WARNING
YOU SHAKE YOUR HEAD AND MAKE YOUR BED
THEN THE THOUGHTS COME IN THE DAY
AND WE JUST LET GO AND PRAY
