@ALBUM: DAVID GILMOUR Please find below a fairly good transcription of the lyrics to _David Gilmour_ by (you'll never guess) David Gilmour. Michael. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ DAVID GILMOUR - DAVID GILMOUR ----------------------------- @SONG: MIHALIS (Instrumental) @SONG: THERE'S NO WAY OUT OF HERE There's no way out of here, when you come in you're in for good There was no promise made, the part you've played, the chance you took There are no boundaries set, the time and yet you waste it still So it slips through your hands like grains of sand, you watch it go There's no time to be lost, you'll pay the cost so get it right There's no way out of here, when you come in you're in for good And never was there an answer, there an answer Not without listening, without seeing There are no answers here, when you look out you don't see in There was no promise made, the part you've played, the chance you took There's no way out of here, when you come in you're in for good @SONG: CRY FROM THE STREET Black shadows dance beyond the neon glow There's rumours in your head that just won't let go They hold on so tight, it makes your blood run cold ?Nailed as the night? trying to save your soul Don't ?...? pray, it's just a cry from the street It's ?...? believe that what they keep they own So you've lost someone that you thought you owned You know it's a crime but what can you do? That's the price you pay with each turn of the screw But don't pay no mind, it's just a cry from the street You really love the night, living on your love It's such a crying shame that things are so rough It's the sight of them screaming ?...? blinds you ?...? I guess the chances are you wish you'd stayed asleep But don't ?...? pray, it's just a cry from the street @SONG: SO FAR AWAY What am I suspended here? Should I kid myself that I have no fear? I get no choice, I just have to wait It may already be too late I don't know what's going on She is here, but I am gone, I am gone My love is lying here She's far away though she looks so near ``Time will tell,'' she says to me When a warm ?...? is all I need Her peace of mind, her strength of will It will come, she's sure it will But how can I put my mind at rest? I feel I'm coming off second best And I'm cut with my own life Is this a dream or is it real life? Oh, sleep, come on me soon I can't bear this lonely room Look at that hair lying there The room is dark, she shows no fear I'm lying still, my eyes are wide My heart is pumping, I'm still alive I'm still awake against my will What will it ever take to still this burning in me? @SONG: SHORT AND SWEET You ask what is the quality of life? Seeking to justify the part you play And hide, fearing it incomplete, to try To make it any more or less than short and sweet But short, short is from you to me, as close As we are wont to try to make it be We're caught watching the dark in the sky, who knows? Helpless as time itself to hold the time of day And you, you are a fantasy, a view >From where you'd like to think the world should see Be true and you will likely find a few Building a vision new and justice to our time And we, we, the immoral men, we dare Naked and fearless in the elements And free, carefree of tempting fate, aware And holding off the moral nightmare at the gates And sweet, sweet as a mountain stream, we'll look Toward a new day breaking in the east We'll meet as every future dream unfolds And surely quality that is the very least @SONG: RAISE MY RENT (Instrumental) @SONG: NO WAY There's no way I'm going to let go There's no way, because it's my show I'm hanging on for a little while I won't go down easy, that's not my style I'm all tied up, tied up in a knot And I can't decide just what it is I've got Did I get out of touch? Did I lose my way? I've not forgot, no, not a single day Now you might believe I'm not a happy man Putting myself apart from the common clan Well, the boat we're sailing, we have a leak or two But I know it's sound, like me and you @SONG: DEAFINITELY (Instrumental) @SONG: I CAN'T BREATHE ANY MORE I can't breathe anymore Why that is I'm not sure I've got my feet on the ground In fact I'm flat on the floor My direction is lost I should pause to take stock It's a new one on me To even dream that you're free It's a tale without an end But the end is there for all to see And if the end weren't so real Coming 'round and 'round again on me I guess it's all about my pride I want to be there at the kill But with or without God on my side I know that I really will
