HE TAKES YOUR BREATH AWAY
He takes your breath away
He knows just how to play you
He's not afraid to say
That he wants you and always will, come to your side.
Why would you turn away, this just won't come to you every day
He's the one that loves you
He takes your breath away
He knows just how to play you
Are you afraid to say
That you want him and always will, there's just no way out
How can you turn away, how can you have any doubt
He's the one that loves you
How can you have any doubt
He's the one that loves you

YOU DRIVE ME TO DRINK
And you drive me to drink
Until I just can't think
And the games you play tear me apart
Been searching, can't find what's left of my heart
Yeah you drive me to drink
Until, until feels like I'm gonna sink
And the games, you love to play, tear me apart
Been searching, looking everywhere
But I can't find what's left of my heart.
And you don't understand
You treat him this way
You're gonna lose your man
You've said goodbye so many times, I'm turned inside out
Gotta go, can't leave I'm turned inside out
Gotta go, can't leave, I'm turned inside out
And you, drive me to drink

STRANDED
You left me stranded
And broken-hearted
And I can't be mended
Again
And I feel so empty
Think of you constantly
And I would touch your face
Again
And you walk through my dreams
Places where we have been
But then my door to you
Closes again
And I'm just helpless
My heart is defenceless
And I know that I won't see your smile again
Yeah I know that I won't see your smile again
You left me stranded
And broken-hearted
And I can't be mended

LOVE GETS YOU TWISTED
Love gets you twisted, love gets you twisted all the way
The hearts are enlisted, the hearts are enlisted to break each day
I try to straighten but I'm too wrapped up to see
I don't know how it's supposed to be
And love gets you twisted, love gets you twisted inside out
I knew that it existed, I knew it existed, I had no doubt
When I'm in her arms I get tangled up it's true
I can't see the other point of view
And love gets you twisted, love gets you twisted
Screw yourself up, screw yourself up, screw yourself, screw yourself up
When I'm in her arms I get tangled up it's true
I can't see the other point of view
I try to straighten out but I'm too wrapped up to see
I don't know how it's supposed to be
And love gets you twisted, love gets you twisted
And love gets you twisted, yeah love gets you twisted, twisted
And love gets you twisted

STORM IN THE HILLS
I've been living up here in the back of beyond
It's been twenty long years since I seen anyone
It didn't snow last Winter, didn't rain at all last fall
So I come back down to see what in the hell's been going on
As I came into town could not believe my eyes
they got a whole new meaning for the word highrise
Redwoods are tall but these buildings are so damn high
What's gone wrong with the ground make everyone wanna touch the sky
Seen a fancy little gadget called a mobile phone
It doesn't ring when you're called it plays a hit tune
People use them when they're out and when they're in at home
Got me to wondering why everyone's so scared of being alone
Thunder on the mountain
Storm in the hills
Fighting in the valley, there's a killing in the alley
And if you stop to take a breath
You might catch a glimpse of what you're running from
Picked up a newspaper, read the headlines
The world's hotting up, give us a bad old time
I could scarcely believe it but everybody tells me it's true
Well I never did, but now I gotta worry what the Chines do
I read about lies and sleaze and something called spin
A way of explaining the mess that it's in
A brand new word invented by a politician
If you don't mean what you say how can you say what you mean
Thunder on the mountain
Storm in the hills
Fighting in the valley, goddamn killing in the alley
And if you stop to take a breath
You might catch a glimpse of what you're running from
Well it's gotta be me, or you, hell yes every one
Someone's got to do it 'cos it's got to be done
The way that we're living is killing and the dying's just begun
And if you stop to take a breath you might catch a glimpse of what you're running from

CRAZY WORLD
I picked up my pen, to write a letter to a friend of mine
Things are hard for all of us, but I heard she's having such a bad time
I thought maybe I could ease the pain, make it better in some small way
Before I could write a single word
I broke down inside and all I could say, was
Hey, how are you, I hope you're doing okay
And isn't this a crazy world we're living in
Isn't this a crazy world we're living in
When this is all done, and we can walk together again
Do you think we'll remember how we treated everyone as a friend
When an act of kindness could bring a tear
An act of bravery we could all cheer
When we were too tired to go another day
And it meant something when someone would say
Hey, how are you, I hope you're doing okay
Isn't this a crazy world we're living in
Hey how are you, I hope you're doing okay
Isn't this a crazy world we're living in
Yeah isn't this a crazy world we're living in
Yeah isn't this a crazy world we're living in

GAME ON (song for Sam)
It never did go quite right, for you
There'd always be another night, for you
And when the daylight came
You're on your own, just the same
You put on your short black dress
Tie your hair up and all the rest
Put on your short black dress
Because it's game, game on
You know it's game, game on
It never did go to plan, for you
Whenever did you see a man who looked like being right for you
And when the daylight come
It's always you on your own
Put on your short black dress
Tie your hair up and all the rest
Put on your short black dress
Because it's game, game on
You know it's game, game on
You know it's game, you know it's game, yeah you know it's game, game on.

UNEXPECTED
Well I know that you've been feeling it
My unexpected touch has touched you a bit
You said it's not like you to be like this
But I want you to know how real it is
How real it is, not like a game
And it comes out of the blue
Straight for the heart, straight for the heart
And I know that you've been feeling it
This sudden emotion has us in its grip
The tenderness in your voice just holds me still
Can't move, can't think, can't speak, I'm lost in the thrill
Lost in the thrill, under your spell
It comes out of the blue straight for the heart
Yeah I'm lost in the thrill, under your spell
And it comes out of the blue, straight for the heart
Straight for the heart

You Can't Take It Back

YOU CAN'T TAKE IT BACK
There's something new coming to town
They say it's a good thing, wanna spread it around
But they're not really sure and it can't be like it was before
Once it's out, you can't take it back
Better take care, watch what you do
Things have a way of turning nasty on you
And like the hurt that you say and the bullet that's on its way
Once it's out, you can't take it back
Where we are now is down to the past
Can we learn from mistakes and do right at last
And like the hurt that you've done and the missile that's flying home
Once it's out, you can't take it back
There's something new coming to town
They say it's a good thing, wanna spread it around
But like the hurt that you say, and the bullet that's on its way
Once it's out, you can't take it back
Just like the bullet that's on its way, once it's out, you can't take it back
Just like the bullet that's on its way, once it's out, you can't take it back

ALL DAY
When you open your eyes in the morning
And you smile your smile at me
I just wish that the morning
Could last all day and then I'd see
All day you smiling at me
Yeah then I'd see
All day you smiling at me
Love you smiling at me

Brinsley Schwarz London, UK
It’s not everyday a band takes on the eponym of their lead guitarist. A London-based pop outfit evolved into what would
become pub-rock legends Brinsley Schwarz.
Remembered for their iconic performances and forging the foundations of London’s pub-rock scene, the Brinsleys brewed up a storm throughout the early 70s, with opening slots for the likes of Paul McCartney
