In Your Hands lyrics - Charlie Winston

Mother,

I've gotta get out of here

So I can save our family

From this poverty

And when I make my money

I'll send it back to you

Father,

Give me strength, I pray

I have to end this misery

It's causing too much pain

I'm gonna look for richer lands

Where the money's made

I'm gonna put my whole World

In your hands

I have to put my whole World

In your hands

In your hands

Mister,

Please let me work somehow

You've kept me waiting 18 months

And still I'm not allowed

And every time you promise me:

"Not much longer now"

I've had to put my whole world 

In your hands

I'm gonna put my whole world

In your hands

In your hands

Hey, hey, oho

Listen, listen to me

Mister! Mister! You say you're trying

But don't you know my brother's dying

You say "it won't be long"

But why am I so cursed

For where I am born?

I know

You've got my whole world

In your hands

I've had to put my whole world

In your hands

I'm gonna put my whole world

In your hands

I've had to put my whole world

In your hands

In your hands

Like A Hobo lyrics - Charlie Winston

I've always known

Since I was a young boy

In this world, everything's as good as bad

Now my father told me always speak a true word

And I have to say that is the best advice I've had

Because something burns inside of me

It's everything I long to be

And lies they only stop me from feeling free 

Like a hobo from a broken home

Nothing's gonna stop me

Like a hobo from a broken home

Nothing's gonna stop me 

I've never yearned for anybody's fortune

The less I have the more I am a happy man

Now my mother told me always keep your head on

Because some may praise you just to get what they want

And I said mama I am not afraid

They will take what they will take

And what would life be like without a few mistakes 

Like a hobo from a broken home

Nothing's gonna stop me

Like a hobo from a broken home

Nothing's gonna stop me

Kick The Bucket lyrics - Charlie Winston

If you say this is pop, to be singing to a tune with a rhythm like this,

would it be so unpopular for a singer like me to be bringing up the fact that we're all gonna go?

Some people swear, they say they know where.

For me it's a mystery. But which ever way you see it

You have to admit it and live it and live it!

We all kick the bucket in the end! The end!

All the girls kick the bucket in the end! The end!

And the boys kick the bucket in the end! The end!

Yep! We all kick the bucket in the end! The end! The end! The end! The end!

Blew up my TV. It' was numbing my brain to be thinking the same as million other people all feeling afraid of the same thing.

But there's nothing to lose, 'cause we're all on a bike and we're cycling through,

getting off on our injuries - but you gotta get back on it and live it and live it to love it and live and love life.

Cause we all kick the bucket in the end! The end!

All the girls kick the bucket in the end! The end!

And the boys kick the bucket in the end! My friend!

Yep! We all kick the bucket in the end! The end! The end! The end! The end!

This is not a sad song!

I don't bring it up to get you down,

It's a celebration for all the red cells

Going round and round in your body!

I don't mean to preach or to sound like a teacher.

No! I only wanna cut the crap and looking back, everybody's had to face the facts.

That we all kick the bucket in the end! The end!

All the girls kick the bucket in the end! The end!

And the boys kick the bucket in the end! My friend!

Yep! We all kick the bucket in the end! The end! The end! The end! The end!

I Love Your Smile lyrics - Charlie Winston

Darling, I hate to see you So angry with the world

If people want a piece of you

Then they're missing something for themselves.

Maybe it's selfish of me to look at you and say

"Come back to me girl I loveand I'll stay.

Coz I love your smile

Yes, I love your smile

How I love your smile

More than you know

Sometimes I might seem cold holding back my sympathies

For people stories and people tell

Can so easily be believed.

The truth gets so distorted when everyone knows best

And sadness tends to find his friends

On the road to righteousness -

Darling, let's never be a part of that

Coz I love your smile

I love your smile

Girl,I love your smile

More than you know

I don't know why

a laugh is hard to find

could it be all of our fears

that we hide behind?

Like bricks in the wall

I wanna see them

fall down!

Coz I love your smile

Yes, I love your smile

Girl, I love your smile

More than you know

Hey hey hey

I love your smile

Girl,I love your smile

When I love your smile

More than you know

Well, I love your smile

Cause I love smile, baby

You know what I mean

My Life As A Duck lyrics - Charlie Winston

They laugh at me at my life.

My life as a duck;

But I don't get worked up.

It's my life as a duck.

You may think this is funny;

You may think I had bad luck;

Or did you think that I was stuck,

In my life as a duck?

For all my life I've tried to hide

the animal in me

Now it's time to open up and

breathe

And breathe

I don't know where I'm going

Or from which place I have come.

But as long as I'm floating

The don't can be undone

You must be thinking 'what is he on?'

But things are looking up

I've started to believe in living

My life as a duck

For all my life I've tried to hide

the animal in me

Now it's time to open up and breathe

And breathe

So listen!

I know everything about you

Your father was a duck

[x4]

For all my life...

Boxes lyrics - Charlie Winston

As a child with ocean eyes I smiled 

At a world existing just for me;

Without boxes, borders or boundaries

I built dreams;

But like plastic building blocks

They were knocked down to the ground

I grew up

To a world of compromise

Analysing what it means to dream

I don't really want to understand

Everything in my world

It spoils the fun for me

Come on darling, you can take my hand

Blowing kisses in the wind

we'll fly away in our dreams

From the boxes they'll put us in

Who shall we propose to be?

Who am I supposed to be?

With these empty building blocks

I could make a thousand me's

I don't really wanna understand everything in my world

It spoils to find out

Come on darling, you can take my hand

Blowing kisses in the wind

We'll fly away in our dreams

From the boxes They'll put us in

And I'm told we all fix in -

But why should I belong to one thing?

Who shall we propose to be

Who am I supposed to be

With these plastic building blocks

I could make a thousand me's

I don't really...

... the boxes they'll put us in

Calling Me lyrics - Charlie Winston

I heard you calling me

As I was swept away deeper into the sea

In love, I missed it's treachery; swimming free

And in one breath a twist of fate made history

Mother Nature took me in

She swept me under then I knew it was my end

My whole life flashed in front of me, so suddenly

And sinking down I knew I could still hear your

scream!

I hear you calling me

There's nothing I can do

I hear you calling me

To answer back to you

Ooh

And now you're losing sleep

With memories, you spend all night playing hide and seek

Replaying how it should've been and could've been

If only there were omens that you could've seen

Back in that room again

You hope to reach me through a medium

But there's no use; I can't reply to this lover's cry

Oh! How I wish I could see you

one more time

To say goodbye!

I hear you calling me

There's nothing I can do

I hear you calling me

To answer back to you

mmh

I hear you calling me

There's nothing I can do

I hear you calling me

To answer back to you

[2x]

Tongue Tied lyrics - Charlie Winston

Now's a chance, here in France, I've got to give it a go

How d'you say I'm happy? Estoy feliz contigo? No! No!

Désolé, mon français est un petit peu confus

Parce que tout le temps si j'essaie

Hablo poco spanish - another stupid English boy!

Anyway, if I say 'si j'essaie' donc I do.

Je voudrais que tu saches en français:

Tu mi gusto mucho Piense que te amo

I gotta whole lotta love on the tip of my tongue

But the words won't come like I want them to come

I'm like Old Mother Hubbord getting lost in her cupboard

And I think I'm loosing you

mmmh

Second go, take it slow, it's not the end of the world

Enfin bon, ça c'est bon, ce n'est pas la fin du monde.

Mais il y a quelque chose que je voudrais te dire -

Listen up! écoute! Important!

Te quiero mucho. La chica mas linda

Oh no! That's español!

I gotta whole lotta love on the tip of my tongue

But the words won't come like I want them to come

I'm like Old Mother Hubbord getting lost in her cupboard

And I think I'm loosing you

So give me one more chance let me try to explain

I've got the words in my heart

But not in my brain

And now I'm all tongue tied

But at least I tried

To build a little bridge to you

In a moment of weakness I give up on the romance

And I fall for a cliché but without thinking I say

"Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?"

But you turn your back

And back with a slap!

I gotta whole lotta love on the tip of my tongue

But the words won't come like I want them to come

I'm like Old Mother Hubbord getting lost in her cupboard

And I think I'm loosing you

So give me one more chance let me try to explain

So give me one more chance let me try to explain

And I have my whole tongue tied

But at least I tried

To build a little bridge to you

I'm gonna be a little breach to you

I'll be a little breach to you

Soundtrack To Falling In Love lyrics - Charlie Winston

All of me
You found a way to all of me
mmh
And helplessly, I've fallen like a child
Hopelessly, I'm hoping you're the one for me
mmh
You comfort me
With every certain smile

But we have only just begun
Still so much for us to learn
Give and take; let's take our time
Taking turns in touching
Nowhere that I'd rather be
Than with you making history
Close your eyes; I'll close mine
And learn to love you
Tu tu tututu...

All of me
You found your way to all of me
And helplessly
I'm faling like a child
Hopelessly
I'm hoping your the one for me
You comfort me
With every certain smile

But we have only just begun
Still so much for us to learn
Give and take, let's take our time
Taking times and touching
No way that I grab the bees?
And with you making history
Close your eyes, I'll close mine
And learn to love you

No one needs to know
If we choose to run away far from here
tutu tututu ...

No one cares for each other here
And no one shares words we need to hear
We take what we want
And turn our backs on it all
Life is sweet coz we've got it all
But who knows love as necessity?
And who knows fear as reality

It's all mixed up in the highstreet shops
Where you think you're smart coz the price is cut
But two for one never means too much
Coz it's all on top and you're in the clutch
Of society boasting "beautiful"
With the garantee it's ephemeral
You can see right through
It's not made to last
It's a precious lie
with a heart of glass

Oh ohohoho

Generation Spent lyrics - Charlie Winston

Looking out at the emptiness of faces

Makes me wonder what a wonder world this is

Is this another generation lost in the darkness

Everybody is someone else's opinion

I don't wanna be a victim of this culture

More prey for a people to dispose of

Anytime I try and come to some conclusion

I'm only faced to with confusion. Confusion

Welcome to a generation spent

Tutu tutututu

We're all dead and spent

Welcome to a generation spent

Tutu tutututu

We're all dead and spent

Devil spent

Everybody's desillusioned with religion

No one really wants to talk about or question god

You're only someone if you're seen on television

I would love to sit back and turn the whole world off

Coz I don't wanna to be a victim of ya culture

Giving money to a people I'm ashamed of

I'm happiest when reality is dreamed up

To socialise is to compromise myself

Welcome to a generation spent

Tutu tutututu

We're all dead and spent

Welcome to a generation spent

Tutu tutututu

We're all dead and spent

Dead and spent

Every Step lyrics - Charlie Winston

I'm a fool to be kind to you:

It's not what the men in your life tend to do

Must be so strange; finding someone

who only accepts you

Rejection's a lesson you've had

You're lost in the anger you feel for your dad

But, oh, how he loves you,

There's no doubt

With all his high hopes for you

I could push you away

I could say I don't want you no more

I could drive you right into the floor

And tell you you're useless;

Get used to it lady

But I'm big in believing that, baby, you're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success; it's a mood that you choose

With every step

I want to grow old with you

To hold your old hand and look back on our youth

I will be strong. Times I might not

I'm only human

I could push you away

...

With every step

So, be free like a bumble bee

Spread wings like a bird

Squawk like a peacock and

Let your voice be heard, it's OK

I have no lock, key or a cage

You've got to want to stay

I won't push you away

I won't say I don't want you no more

I won't drive you right into the floor

But I'll tell you you're beautiful;

Get on with it lady

Coz I'm big in believing that, baby,

you're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success; it's a mood that you choose

With every step

So take a step

It's just step by step

My Name lyrics - Charlie Winston

I won't apologise for the mess that you're in

I'm gonna hide my eyes from your crimson sin

No sacrife can make atonement again

The blood is on your hands: You should be ashamed

You won't forget my name!

You won't forget my name!

So now I say goodbye and this to you, I pledge:

Take your final step and plummet over the edge

You listened to the snake! I won't take any blame

Now here's my breath in your face,

I leave you up in flames.

You won't forget my name!

You won't forget my name!

Behold! The angel's singing sweet

For righteousness; a cry!

He sings for you so tenderly:

"Apple of my eye!"

Stay right where you are;

Don't be foolish to try any courageous moves

You won't be saving lives

I didn't do all I've done for you to put me to shame

Now in your final hour my legacy remains

You won't forget my name!

You won't forget my name!

Behold! The angel's singing sweet

For righteousness; a cry!

He sings for you so tenderly:

"Apple of my eye!"
