1 Anna Brown (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

Sally got married, now she lives down on the coast
Married to Andy, she thinks that he's the most

What ever happened to sweet Anna Brown?
Did she spend her days thinking she's the only one?

You know it's been five years, but some things never change
Harry's Mr Big Shot, got a house on Abbey Grange

What ever happened to sweet Anna Brown?
Did she spend her days thinking she's the only one?

Mary got cited, in Lisa Jones' divorce
Got her picture in the paper, denied it all of course

What ever happened to sweet Anna Brown?
Did she spend her days thinking she's the only one?

3 Precious Skin (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

Take my hand, and lead me from this place
I've seen things that I don't want to face

Turn me round and point me to the door
I've seen things that I don't want to know

Walk away and save your precious skin
Don't look back and I will do the same

Turn me round and point me to the door
I feel things I've never felt before

Pass me by and you will never see
All the things that brought me to my knees

Don't ask me why just where do I begin
You told me lies just to save your precious skin

Take my hand, and lead me from this place
I've seen things that I don't want to face

Turn me round and point me to the door
I feel things I've never felt before

Don't ask me why just where do I begin
You told me lies just to save your precious skin

4 The Way He Makes You Feel (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

When you wake up on the wrong side of the bed
I'll turn your day around, I'll turn your day around
When you can't get over something that he's said
I'll turn your day around, I'll turn your day around

I hope that I've misunderstood
The way he makes you feel, the way he makes you feel
I think it's much to your surprise
That I'm still waiting here, I'm still waiting here

I think the taxi driver knew
You didn't say a word, you didn't say a word
I heard you walked around for hours, with nothing in your head
I wish you'd phoned instead

I hope that I've misunderstood
The way he makes you feel, the way he makes you feel
I think it's much to your surprise
That I'm still waiting here, I'm still waiting here

I hope that I've misunderstood
The way he makes you feel, the way he makes you feel
I think it's much to your surprise
That I'm still waiting here, I'm still waiting here

When you wake up on the wrong side of the bed
I'll turn your day around, I'll turn your day around

6 Summer Sun (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

In this old town, they'll talk to anyone
Lead you by the hand, steal away your fun

So where do I go from here now, tell me
It's not clear to me
Oh, tell me

The north wind blows and it chills me to my soul
Better times will come, and lead me to my home

So where do I go from here now, tell me
It's not clear to me
Oh, tell me

Now winter's here and it chills me to my soul
Better times will come, and rescue me I'm told

So where do I go from here now, tell me
It's not clear to me

What happened to the summer sun?

7 Beautiful City (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

Feel the beat of the city tonight
In the streets of Newcastle tonight
Feel the heat in the city tonight
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There'll be tears in the city tonight
See the boys on the make and the girls dressed to kill
Chasing dreams in the city tonight
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

It's a beautiful city I know
Down the steps to the Quayside and I can still see
Seven bridges to carry me home
To the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

Feel the beat of the city tonight
See them all dressed in black down in Old Eldon Square
All my pictures will be black and white
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

8 Misunderstood (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

Just don't ask me why
I would only lie to you
And tell you things you want to hear

I'm your Prince of Fools
And I've broken all the rules
And I'll break your heart if you let me near

Life looks good from here
Sunny days and ice cold beer
So good from here

Re-invent my past
A hero to the last
Misunderstood, misunderstood

I'm your Prince of Fools
And I've broken all the rules
Broken every rule

Re-invent my past
A hero to the last
Misunderstood, misunderstood

Just don't ask me why

9 The Greater Scheme Of Things (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

Ah hey, what did you say? Did you tell him lies? Was it no surprise?
Has your Monday come too soon? Has it left you feeling blue?

She's dreaming again tonight, as if you never were
But in the greater scheme of things, you meant too much to her

Every day, it's just the same, fills her coffee cup never looking you
Doesn't see them passing by though she'd like to catch his eye

She's dreaming again tonight, as if you never were
But in the greater scheme of things, you meant too much to her

I've heard them say, it's all a game, but she knows in fact, it means more than that
In the office where she cried, no one ever asked her why

She's dreaming again tonight, as if you never were
But in the greater scheme of things, you meant too much to her

10 Everybody Knows (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

A girl was walking down my street, she reminded me of you
From her head down to her feet, she reminded me of you

Every body knows, and everybody wants to be a bit like you and me
I must have let it show

The film on my TV, it's reminding me of you
And everywhere I see things the way they used to be

Look through any window
You'll see the things we used to see when we were seventeen
Open any door

When I walked into a room, a girl reminded me of you
I knew that very son, she would say it just like you

Walk down any street, you'll hear the things we used to hear
When we were seventeen, yesterday was ours

A girl was walking down my street
She reminded me of you

11 Lose You Again (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

I'm the one who told you
I'm the one who said
I'm the one who's sure to
Lose you again

Tell me did you listen
To a word I said
You know I never want to
Lose you again

How many times did you tell me
I'm the only one?
How hard did you try?
How many times did you run?

How many times did you tell me
I'm the only one?
How hard did you try?
How many times did you run?

Your brother said you're happy
Your sister said you're sad
Your daddy said you're leaving

12 Away From You (Fish, Leslie)

Recorded and mixed by

Produced by

I just don't know where the days have gone
Without a word, tomorrow came along
And yesterday, it sailed into the blue
I've been spending too much time away from you

The telephone can't thrill me with your touch
And the words you write, don't hold me close enough
And photographs don't say it like you do
I've been spending too much time away from you

I wanna take you to the beach tonight
Keep you within my reach all night

And yesterday, it sailed into the blue
I've been spending too much time away from you

The telephone can't thrill me with your touch
And the words you write, don't hold me close enough
And photographs don't say it like you do
I've been spending too much time away from you

I've been spending too much time away from you
