Bryan Ferry - Another Time, Another Place - lyrics

(ferry)
I knew there´d be times like this
When i´d sit at home and reminisce
Oh how one´s memory slips...
So I close my book
And sighing, take a second look
Sure enough - i´m quite alone
Still, there no sound
So I spin-a-disc around and around
And slide the needle in the groove...
Drive down any highway baby
But don´t bid me adieu
Through a sea of twisting byways
I´ll be trailing you
Eternity´ll solve our problem
Take it as you may
And destiny will stand corrected
Should we connect some day
Another time - to spend
Another place - to go
Another love to share with you
Deep emotion springs from this life
Wells up inside
Quick, pick me up and pour me over
The clouds crying by
Another time - to spend
Another place - to go
Another love this time it´s true
Anyway you want me lover
Used to be your tune
I looked you up - you looked me over
My lucky strike won through
I was cut, dried and discarded
Just a rusty blade
But since I found my four leaf clover
I´ve seen the light again
All the tears
In the world
Seem to fall from you
At their
Rainbow´s end
A halcyon day
Or two
How soon
We fool ourselves
How slow
We tread
Astral planes
Collide head on
And on and on we glide
As if forever

Bryan Ferry - (What A) Wonderful World - lyrics

(albert, adler, cooke)
Don´t know much about history
Don´t know much biology
Don´t know much about a science book
Don´t know much about the french i took
But i do know that i love you
And i know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
Don´t know much about geography
Don´t know much trigonometry
Don´t know much about algebra
Don´t know what a slide rule for
But i know that one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be
I don´t claim to be an "a"-student
But i'm tryin´ to be
Maybe by being an "a"-student, baby
I can win your love for me
Don´t know much about history
Don´t know much biology
Don´t know much about science books
Don´t know much about the french i took
But do know that i love you
And i know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

Bryan Ferry - Amazing Grace - lyrics

(newton)
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now i´m found
Was blind but now I see
twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fear relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Were been there ten thousand years
Bright, shiny as the sun
We´re no less days to sing god´s praise
Then when we first begun

Bryan Ferry - Are You Lonesome Tonight? - lyrics

(turk / handman)
Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apart
Does your memory stray
To a brighter summer day
When I kissed you and called sweetheart
Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight
Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight

Bryan Ferry - A Wasted Land - lyrics

(ferry)
When love´s gone
There´s no one
A waste land
A ghetto
When love´s gone
A tear on
A waste land
Your pillow

Bryan Ferry - All Tomorrow's Parties - lyrics

(reed)
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow´s parties
A hand-me-down dress from who knows where
To all tomorrow´s parties
And where will she go and what she gonna do
When midnight comes around
She turn once more to sunday´s clown
And cry behind the door
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow´s parties
Linens and silks of last nights gowns
To all tomorrow´s parties
And what will she do with thursdays rags
When monday comes around?
Shell turn once more to sunday´s clown
And cry behind the door
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
To all tomorrow´s parties
For thursdays child is sunday´s clown
For whom none will go mourning
A blackened shroud a hand-me-down gown
Of rags and silks; a costume
Fit for one who sits and cries
For all tomorrow´s parties

Bryan Ferry - All Night Operator - lyrics

(ferry)
Can´t you hear me talkin´ to you
I´m callin´ you one more time
All night operator
Dial me a better line
Can´t you hear me talkin´ to you
Do telephones make you cry?
I try to write letters
Only my pen runs dry
Though my words sound so confused
The feeling is running strong
Stick tight operator
Help me to pass it on
Final connection
A bridge before the fall
Receiver unrestin´
I count on your call
Am I just a number to you
A handful of empty sighs
All night operator
Reader between the lies
With half the world dreamin´
I see through your eyes
A switchboard breathin´
A diary of crossed lines
Can´t you hear me talkin´ to you
I´m callin´ you one more time
All night operator
Dial me better line
If you feel me driftin´ away
Slippin´ into my song
All night operator
All of a sudden - gone

Bryan Ferry - Answer Me - lyrics

(winkler, rauch, sigman)
Answer me, my love
Just what sin I been guilty of?
Tell me how I came lose your love
Answer me, my love
You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won´t you tell me where i´ve gone astray?
Answer me, my love
If you´re happier without me
I´ll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Listen my prayer
You must know i´ve been true
Won´t you say that we can start anew?
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Answer me, my love

Bryan Ferry - As The World Turns - lyrics

(ferry)
There´s a place in my heart
All broken and still
Where I may wander alone.
At the end of the day
As the world turns
I turn to thoughts of home
Though you´re far away I imagine
How you would smile at this romance
And sure enough
As the world turns
And so to games of chance.
Take my part in this play
You´re dealing me words I never could use
That strange beginning has no ending
When curtain falls we both lose
Though we´re far apart on this old carousel
The ups and downs we share
Just remember surely as the world turns
In dreams I will be there by your side.

Bryan Ferry - A Fool For Love - lyrics

In days gone by
There was a king
A fool for love
And all it brings
So high and wise
Could read your mind
A fool for love
And love is blind
A crowded street
An empty train
A fool for love
You cry in vain
In days gone by
There was a queen
A fool for love
And all it means
Red ruby lips
Don't touch my eyes
A fool for love
And love is blind
Like flowers in the rain
I'm twisted up inside
I'll never be the same
I hear the same old lines
You played me for a fool
You really hurt my pride.
