Bliss 02:54
Bliss! The wonder and the joy of your love, that I miss The feeling so sublime every time we kiss To slide into your arms is a craving I’ll never dismiss The mem’ry of your touch is all I think of when I reminisce And even when I’m sleeping I will never want for any more than this Bliss! And suddenly you’re back in the room with me My life is now a glorious melody And all at once my heart is growing faster than the national debt I feel like I’ve been draggin on a marujana cigarette And such intoxication, a sensation I will never forget

On Holiday, in the south of France Came a voice that said Would you care to dance And yesterday, in the shopping aisle Came a voice that said Tarry for a while But neither one, got it right for me Didn’t light my fire Wasn’t meant to be So listen up, I’m about to share What you need to know How to get me there Talk about the weather Talk about whatever No need to be clever With your repartee No amount of punning Gets my motor running All your native cunning Won’t lead me astray But take a bold endeavour make a delicate pout Make your voice all soft and tender make it never a shout Put your thoughts into a whisper let me be in no doubt Put your lips where I can hear them that’s what I’m all about Whisper it to me Baby Whisper it to me Baby Whisper it to me Baby

Catapult! 03:32
Catapult, Catapult, Catapult into my heart Catapult, Catapult, Catapult into my heart Catapult, Catapult, Catapult into my heart Catapult, Catapult, Catapult into my heart Catapult, Catapult! You fired the gun I came undone I tried to run Into the sun Catapult, Catapult, into my heart

I lost my mind in a sleazy bar in Paris I lost my soul in a Spanish gambling den I lost my heart at the beach down in Beaumaris Though it turned out – he was a bit of a stegasaurus I lost my glasses, on the way to Sassafrassas I lost my licence - it was in my going-out bag I lost my wallet, to a nasty ol’ pick pocket     And I lost my jeans down in old New Orleans I’m not gonna go into the detail about that situation For that you will have to rely on your imagination I lost my money, in a game of Gin Rummy I lost my phone, some lovely lady took it home, it wasn’t funny I lost my dreams, by mixing vinegar and honey And I lost my jeans, down in old New Orleans I’m not gonna go into the detail about that situation For that would be a tarnishing remark against my sparkling reputation That’s more of a back room conversation I lost my way, looking for a dirty secret I lost my pay, when I found I couldn’t keep it I lost my job when I wrote that message and forgot to delete it And I lost my jeans, down in old New Orleans And I lost my jeans, on a ceiling fan, in old New Orleans And I lost my jeans, down in old New Orleans

Verse (not recorded) Whether winter, spring or fall and in summer, most of all When the solace of confiding all the secrets you've been hiding is a siren’s call you simply can’t resist There is someone you should meet Who is ever so discreet They are never judge presiding There’s no mocking, no deriding Rest your weary heart ‘cos they really can assist Chorus 1 Margaret River Moon, Margaret River Moon Your twilight colour so gentle Margaret River Moon, Margaret River Moon my thoughts so inconsequential 
 Refrain 1 I need your counsel tonight won't you hear me out once more? And your deepest insight though you've heard it all before Here beside the sycamore  
 Chorus 2 Margaret River Moon, Margaret River Moon I hope it's no imposition Margaret River Moon, Margaret River Moon I just need someone to listen 
 Refrain 2 It's strange that you have become The one on whom I must rely And yet according to some There’s no way to justify Waiting here for your reply 
 Chorus 3 Margaret River Moon, Margaret River Moon It's been a long expedition Margaret River Moon, Margaret River Moon And now you’ve heard my petition 
 Refrain 3 (with tag) your wisdom, beauty and grace rising up into the sky Just like a lover’s embrace Gives me solace by and by Even as I say goodbye To my fears and my sorrow And the Margaret River Moon

Youthful looks have faded And we're just a little jaded Write a song for me In a minute I'll be ninety And the colt from old regret will get away Still there's time for romance Though we may run out of finance That's a risk we'll have to take And there's no-one that I'd rather Take a risk on than the beauty that is you Do you remember, long ago now There was a time we thought we’d never be apart? I was the gambler, you the shepherd And when the time was right you came and won my heart Then came the sorrow, and the sadness Then came the words that both of us would best forget All of our troubles, cast a shadow It’s little wonder we were tempted by regret Now you’re away I wish that you were still around When I’m alone I feel a sadness so profound Can you imagine, can you even realise? When all is said and done I’m still in love with you Now that I’m older, none the wiser Now that you know my fears and dreams for what they are Now that we’re really, too familiar Now that you’ve seen and heard my total repertoire Can you accept me, and trade what might have been? Can you forgive me, and start with me again? Can you imagine, can you even realise? When all is said and done I’m still in love with you Can you imagine dear? - I’m still in love with you

Verse 1 I know exactly what is on your mind dear I didn’t need to be an Einstein dear it’s written right across your face don’t try to say its not the case You’re wondering if I’m the one for you dear   Verse 2 It’s true the game of love is hard to play dear but playing hard to get, is so cliché dear you’re thinking you should hesitate I say it’s time to consummate Let’s see if I can help, give you a sign dear   Bridge come and spread some butter on my toast add some salt and pepper to my roast pour me something harder from your private larder I’m no blushing violet when it comes to love   so squeeze some lime and bitters in my gin pluck my banjo, tune my violin be my new mechanic scuttle my titanic give me masterclasses in the birds and bees cos     Chorus I already know you’re the one for me there’s no need to wait for the ecstasy so give me some molasses come and make some passes don’t you think it’s time that you were foggin’ up my glasses I already know you’re the one for me   Verse 4 It’s never any fun, to run away dear I’ll be your number one, so come and play dear you think that you’re rejectable I’m sayin’ you’re delectable lets see if I can help, give you a sign dear   Bridge light a match and break me out of jail send me flying off the Richter scale come untie my locket bring your wrench and socket I’m no blushing violet when it comes to love   So come and sew a button on my coat cross the bridge and jump into my moat dress me in balsamic make my mother panic give me masterclasses in the birds and bees cos   Chorus I already know you’re the one for me there’s no need to wait for the ecstasy give me some molasses come and make some passes don’t you think its time that you were foggin’ up my glasses I already know you’re the one for me

There’s a secret the universe is keeping from me Its a puzzle, a riddle, its a mystery Whats the road I need to travel That will lead me straight to you Should I ask a fortune teller or consult a map Should I dress for lunch or dinner Maybe wear a special hat? Did you walk past me just now Got to find you I don’t know how I know my lover’s somewhere out there waiting So kind, so gentle and so captivating Send me your latitude and reach A mountain or a beach Just tell me where to find you And when we meet there’ll be no hesitating When its right baby its right Come and be with me tonight The magical moment is almost here The mystics are casting their spells I can see all our friends Wishing us well while we vow Somewhere somehow Come lead me down the road to you Cupid its time for you to start providing Stand tall, take aim and send your arrow flying Or am I bound to be alone The love I’ve never known To fade into the starlight Maybe but I will spend forever trying Searching, walking, the road to you

I met you down the bayou And babe I really like you I like it when you kiss me Especially when you kiss me We went beyond third base After our first embrace But we can't continue Because we have an issue It's all about the music And I'm about to lose it Looks like we're out of luck We're gonna come unstuck You like funk I know that you like it when they Play that funk You like funk It gets you excited when they Play that funk You like funk Your heart gets ignited when they Play that funk You like funk But we've got a problem that will fuck us up 'Cos I prefer to swing Babe I like to swing Yeah I gotta swing I prefer to swing!

I remember how it used to be Just before you were introduced to me Colours were all black and white to me Taste smell and touch - didn’t seem to mean much to me Then the strangest serendipity All of a sudden you were next to me Birdsong transformed into rhapsody I felt the sun, shining down on me I’m still basking in the afterglow Why you love me, I will never know but it seems like destiny and I think it’s plain to see All the happiness you bring And the way you light up everything is the universe deciding We were meant to be
