The Three Of Me I'm Talkin' To You Oh Life (There Must Be More)
[Pack/Powell]
There's a voice on the phone
Who just called in to say "Mr. Jones isn't home He'll be gone for the day"
So he pulls down the blind To adjust his disguise
But it's all in his mind Which he proudly denies
I turn the boat back from the weir Where to go from here
I can't hide from each face I see Looking out from behind them is me
I'm attempting to guess What they meant when they said
"Mr. Jones and his guest Won't be using the bed"
So if I take the rap While they stay out of sight
I can spring from the trap When the timing is right
One minute I think I know what I mean
The next I hear voices inside disagree Why are they laughing at me?
So I pick up the phone Someone's asking of me
Is the real Mister Jones Mister One, Two or Three?
So I say that they're not But it's not as I say
'Cos they're all that I've got And I can't get away
As Alice waves us through the glass Are we home at last
For tomorrow they'll be here you see
Locked away safe inside there with me
'Cos tomorrow they'll be here you'll see
Locked away safe inside they're with me
One minute I think I know what I mean The next I hear voices inside disagree

Somehow you fell out of time Boy you lost your place in line
But don't even try To drag me down too
I'm talkin' to you, I'm talkin' to you
One star rises, one falls from the sky
You're still hiding the way you feel inside
One word closer to things we need to say
One cut deeper to tear the past away
You think I don't know your mind But I know fools don't change with time
Until the warning signs Come out of the blue
I'm talkin' to you, I'm talkin' to you
One light's burning - another fades away
Don't stand watching your dream go down in flames
One step closer, the door is open wide
Come tomorrow we'll see the other side
On and on until we change Everything remains the same
On and on until we learn On and on the wheels will turn...
Wounded words and eyes that lie
You won't let your demons die
Take a look inside Or you're gonna lose
I'm talkin' to you, I'm talkin' to you I'm talkin' to you
Whatever you do, the last laugh's on you
On and on until we change Everything remains the same
On and on until we learn On and on the wheels will turn...
Somehow you fell out of time
Boy you lost your place in line...
One star rises one star falls Do you even care at all?
... this time I'm talkin' to you I'm talkin' to you

Waves roll out Out to sea Tasting the saltwater Tears upon her cheek
Morning breaks She's not there Who could ever find her? Who would even care?
No one heard No one came No angel of mercy Appears to know her name
Where is hope When words fail All the colours running Inside when life turns pale
In the dock the boats are harboured Where the water's cold and still
Oh life, she cries, I've lost the will
From the bridge she sees a lifetime Being washed upon the shore
Oh life, she cries There must be more...
Tides roll in Waters rise Any chance of reason Only clouds her eyes
Arms of grace She won't feel All the wounds inside her That time can never heal
The city lights shine seaward Swirling in a trance
Her eyes upon the water Alone in her last dance
From the docks the boats are leaving As she cries into the dawn
"Oh life, I'm barely holding on"
And she sees her future falling Til it finds the ocean floor
Oh life, she cries There must be more There must be more
And with the early light She'll sail into the clear
The winds are all behind her The hour's almost here
From the bridge she hears the voices Turn into a roar
Oh life she cries There must be more
On the dock her soul is sinking But her spirit longs to soar
Oh life, she cries There must be more
There must be more There must be more Oh life I'm barely holding on
There must be more There must be more Oh life there must be something more
