1st Song - Blue moon

you saw me standing alone

Without a dream in my heart

without a live of my own

Blue moon

you knew just what I was there for 

You heard me

saying a prayer for

someone I really could care for

And then you suddenly

appeared before me

the only one my arms could ever hold

I heard somebody whisper

'please adore me'

But when I looked that

moon had turned to gold

Blue moon

now I'm no longer alone

Without a dream in my heart

without a love of my own

2nd Song - Little Bird

Your heart sings like a kettle

And your words, they boil away like steam.

And a lie burns long while the truth bites quick,

A heart is built for both it seems.

You are lonely as a church,

Despite the queuing out your door.

I am empty as a promise, no more.

When the time comes,

And rights have been read,

I think of you often

But for once I meant what I said.

I was salted by your hunger,

Now you've gone and lost your appetite

And a little bird is every bit as handy in a fight.

I am lonely as a memory

Despite the gathering round the fire.

Aren't you every bird on every wire?

When the time comes,

And rights have been read,

I think of you often

But for once I meant what I said.

Here I stay, I lay me down,

I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.

Here I stay, I lay me down,

In a house by the Hill.

I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.

I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.

I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.
