Trip Over the Water
Verse: D, F#m, Bm, G
Chorus: D, AaddD, Bm, G, D, AaddD, F#m, G
Bridge: Em, A7
Hop on a bus, talking ’bout us
Hoping for seats that are lucky
Sit in one place, a frown on your face
Doesn’t have to be that way
The trip over the water can be clear
It can put a smile on your face my dear
A trip over the water can be clear
it can be
We face the right way, as we start the day
Talking of worlds we could run to
Feeling like fools, we make up new rules
Of what we’re allowed to, do
The trip over the water can be clear
It can put a smile on your face my dear
A trip over the water can be clear
it can be
so when you say
there’s no luck today
the train blocked the view
well it's up to you
And there’s the surprise, of the sunrise
From the bridge where we jump out
And as you say, now you’re ready to play
When you see the water all about
The trip over the water can be clear
It can put a smile on your face my dear
A trip over the water can be clear
it can be
The trip over the water can be clear
It can put a smile on your face my dear
A trip over the water can be clear
it can be

In the Garden of the Duke
In the garden of the Duke-You can walk around
Take a look- see what can be found
Go on in and wander around
Look about you
Pick a daisy- make a chain
You can be lazy- it’s ok
Run free and crazy-In the garden
Of the Duke
In the garden of the Duke -There’s never a cloud
It is safe from outside- Don’t be proud
Come on in there’s a place for you now
In the shade there
Get away -from all the action
What the neighbours say- no satisfaction
What the office pays- it’s only a fraction
Of your time- This is your life
Hold it now- The garden is calling
Hear the sounds- this is your warning
I’ll be there too-I’d watch you till morning
I will love you- in the garden
Of the Duke
In the garden of the Duke
We could eat under a tree
Chat about nothing for as long as can be
Free to be you -alone and with me
I’ll just wait here
Drift off with a book –space to do your thing
I won’t even look- gotta a song to sing
I’ve got a guitar – We could kiss in the garden
Of the Duke.
In the garden of the Duke- you can walk around
Take a look- see what can be found
Go on in- I will be there too.
Talkin with you
Get away from the action
The Jargin and rules- no satisfaction
Officials and schools- it’s only a fraction
Of your time- this is your life
Hold it now- the garden is calling
Hear all the sounds- this is your warning
I’ll be there too – I’ll watch you till morning
I will love you- in the garden
Of the Duke
In the garden of the Duke
We could talk away
We could walk away
Would you walk this way?
Would you walk away?

In The Sunshine
Our life goes round in a circle
A spiral catching its own tail
I see you waving from the beach
You feel so close you’re out of reach
Time will stop if you watch it
The trick is catching it do it
You’ll see the pattern in the day
It’s when we come out to play
In the sunshine
In the daytime
night time time
I’ll be with you
I find myself in the hallway
Staring out at the front door
See your jacket there it hangs
There’s a T-Shirt in my hand
Cat stretching in the sunlight
Wander aimlessly on the rooftops
Birds calling from the trees
Leaves sparkle in the breeze
In the sunshine
In the daytime
It’s my time
To be with you
You’ll see the pattern in the day
It’s when we come out to play
In the sunshine
In the daytime
It’s my time
To be with you
In the sunshine
In the daytime
It’s my time
To be with you
sunshine
daytime
night time time
I’ll be with you
sunshine
daytime
night time time
I’ll be with you
Once again…

Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Funny how I’m usually the last one
I used to be the first one
Are you talking to me?
Funny how we continue to play out this charade
We kiss and we make up again
Are you listening to me?
You can go now if you want
At least you’ll know I’m still in love with you
Take anything you need
But I’ll still be your fool
I might be your friend
You can try to stick it back together again, but
It will all came out in the end
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Funny how it always soon turns out to be
The one you really need that comes to set you free (Hallelujah)
Funny how it always soon turns out to be
The one you really need that comes to set you free (Hallelujah)
Funny how if we look back at years gone by
It seems like yesterday
Have I gone too far?
Funny that we had our share of losing control
Of raising a child
Can I come back again?
I can’t go even if I want
Because I’m still in love with you
I’ve taken everything I need
And I feel like a fool
I don’t behave like a friend
I’d like to try and stick it back together again
I don’t think we’ve come to the end
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Funny how it always soon turns out to be
The one you really need that comes to set you free (Hallelujah)
Funny how it always soon turns out to be
The one you really need that comes to set you free (Hallelujah)
Funny how it always soon turns out to be
The one you really need that comes to set you free (Hallelujah)
Funny how it always soon turns out to be
The one you really need that comes to set you free (Hallelujah)

You Won

You won
As he walks along the street
And kicks the dust up at his feet
And as he takes the tram up to the station on the hill
He calls her number knowing she will not pick up
Not today
Or any day
She is halfway round the world
Acting like some other girl
She tells him that the surf’s up and that the sand is in her hair
The world is now in focus and the past is laid to rest
For a while
anyway
You won
You won
You won
You won it all
You wanted me
So she sits alone at home
And wonders if he’ll ever phone
Breaking waves down on the shore a red wine in her hand
Everything is in its place she sets a course for home
For today
Just for today
He rides the tram back down the hill
He tries to call again until
Time stops just for a moment and with clarity he sees
She doesn’t differentiate between what is fake and true
Not today
Or any day
You won
You won
You won
You won
You won
You won it all
You wanted me

Make’n’Break
She said its over
But he can’t think what to replace it with
Maybe strum his guitar a bit
Knock off a song
‘bout a love gone wrong
She said, its the right thing to do
and he knows it too
It’s all laid out for you
At least you’ve still got the song
When it’s all gone wrong (she said)
“If you can’t break it, You shouldn’t make it”
“If you can’t break it, You shouldn’t make it”
What did you think he was going to do?
Did you think he would wait for you?
Sit on a mountain top
It’s always been a one-way ticket
And it won’t stop
What did you think he was going to say?
Did you think he’d just walk away?
Or maybe that’s just the fate
For a boy and a girl
Who met too late
She said I can hold my breath
longer than you
Till my face turns blue
And then you’ll see
What this means to me
Eventually though you’ll have to
come up for air
Just to see if I’m still there
And then you’ll see
What this means to me
“If you can’t break it, You shouldn’t make it”
“If you can’t break it, You shouldn’t make it”
What did you think he was going to do?
Did you think he would wait for you?
Sit on a mountain top
It’s always been a one-way ticket
And it won’t stop
What did you think he was going to say?
Did you think he’d just walk away?
Or maybe that’s just the fate
For a boy and a girl
Who met too late
What did you think he was going to do?
Did you think he would wait for you?
Sit on a mountain top
It’s always been a one-way ticket
And it won’t stop
What did you think he was going to say?
Did you think he’d just walk away?
Or maybe that’s just the fate
For a boy and a girl
Who met too late

The Kings Of Tiny Things Vienna, Austria
These are the songs of a boy and a girl who met in a garden. She swung gently in a hammock and wrote in her notebook whilst
he played his guitar
They told each other stories.
Small moments.
Kate mostly enjoys watching thunderstorms and walking barefoot. Steve prefers dry weather and comfortable shoes.
