Mark Knopfler - Matchstick Man Lyrics
So there he was then, Penzance to play
Christmas Eve in a nowhere band
Now early morning Christmas Day
He's hitching home to Geordieland
Last night the snow came, just my luck
And who the hell do you think you are
Climbi...
Mark Knopfler - Wherever I Go Lyrics
[Verse 1: Mark Knopfler]
Maybe I'm bound to wander
From one place to the next
Heaven knows why
But in the wild blue yonder
Your star is fixed in my sky
[Verse 2: Ruth Moody]
Just another bar at a crossroads
So far fr...

SeeYouSpaceCowboy - Pep Talk From A Nihilist Lyrics
Fight fair, high class subterfuge
Raw thought, rethink, pretend
Eye dance, coat your mouth and start again
Raw thought, rethink, just pretend
Contort, reshape
Matchstick mind at ease
Charcoal hands erode, slight spine

Mark Knopfler - Floating Away Lyrics
It's the weight I'm trying
To get inside the frame
I've been painting a fat man
He's big and fat and heavy
As a man can be
But he's been floating away, floating away
He's been floating away from me

Mark Knopfler - When You Leave Lyrics
When you leave
There's cordite in the air
A ringing in the stillness
Smoke drifting up the stair
When you leave
When you leave
My heart sounds in my ears
A beating in the darkness
A trace of you still here
When you...
Mark Knopfler - Mighty Man Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A room on the top floor
And the chest all but knackered
Two fingers not working
And the back's shot to hell
It's a lifetime of digging trenches
In the cold and wet weather
And for laying half the roadway

Mark Knopfler - Drovers' Road Lyrics
It's a drover's road
High up where ravens fly
And soon I'll lose my way
And I won't know
It's a drover's road
From days so long gone by
When we knew who we were
And where to go
It's a dr...
Mark Knopfler - Heavy Up Lyrics
Your slack-jawed dimness is our loss
Condemns us to your point of view
Who could give a flying toss
What you like to chill out to?
And why should I lighten up for you
If you can't heavy up for me?
Why should I? Why should I...
Lilly Wood & The Prick - No Mark Lyrics
Last October by the sea or the ocean, I don't really remember.
But anyway I met this guy, and we played cards.
I didn't really like him at first, I thought he was so pretentious.
But I was wrong and I realize that now.
You kn...
Mark Knopfler - Trapper Man Lyrics
The trapper man's in from the hinterlands
Filth and grease on his clothes and hands
From the outermost, the farthermost
Comes riding in to the trading post
Got a pack horse loaded up with hides
Steps in to see the man inside

Mark Knopfler - Are We In Trouble Now Lyrics
It wasn't just the music
It wasn't just the wine
Some other kind of magic
Was sending shivers up my spine
Then I was falling
And I fell for you, and how
Darling, are we in trouble now
They say we're grown up
But we've ...
Mark Knopfler - Broken Bones Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She likes a man with a broken nose
Lucky for me, I suppose
Shots coming in like the monthly bills
Soon they'll be saying I'm over the hill
Well the bell goes clang and you're on your own
You take your me...
Mark Knopfler - Just A Boy Away From Home Lyrics
When I was just a boy I'd be kicking a tin
Take the short cut home through the loony bin
I never gave much thought to the souls in there
I was just a boy, too young to care
Well the years go by and you get to see
A dream&#...

Sonny Shotz - The Mark Of The Beast Lyrics
They don't take much for a good market
They turn around and leave by
They don't take much for a bad market

Mark Knopfler - River Towns Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I came in three days early
To meet my boat
It ain't the life of Riley
But it's keeping me afloat
It's quiet over Christmas
If you got no place to go
I got my home from river rats
The only home I know...
Mark Knopfler - Silver Eagle Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was so late and she'd be sleeping
He came through her home town
With the moonlight on the crossroads
And the green light shining down
And the bell at the railroad crossing
And the horn from far away
And his S...
Mark Knopfler - Bluebird Lyrics
Got crows in my pasture
Rats in my barn
Crows in my pasture, babe
Rats in my barn
If I was you, little bluebird
I'd up and find another farm
I've got nightshade in my meadow
Ragweed in my corn
Nightshade in my meadow
And ragweed ...

Happy birthday, baby

For all these miles that I roam

Mark Knopfler - My Bacon Roll Lyrics
I never got the elbow
Just telling you
Before you go
Only telling you
Just so you know
I never got the elbow
I slung it in
Had it up to here
I just pulled the pin
Went and had a beer
I used to love a bit of folding...
Kygo - Remind Me To Forget (feat. Miguel) Lyrics

It never fades away, it's staying

I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain

Speedy Ortiz - MKVI Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drop donations in the box
Coats for curs and toys for tots
Give hearts for ex-hearts time forgot
Vaccinate the ones you love
Anesthesia so they can't feel you
When it's time to give 'em up

Something 'bout the way I had to pull it out
Never healed quite right and now I've got a scar

Mark Knopfler - Every Heart In The Room Lyrics
The barflies chatter
They don't know any better
It doesn't matter
You're hanging on to a dream
To your own dream
They're laughing and talking
One or two are clapping
But nobody's walking
And you'...
Mark Knopfler - Nobody's Child Lyrics

Never quarrels or complains
Grown as hard as the Sierras
And the Western Plains
Come a&#...

Issue No. 131 - The Courier Lyrics
Come the courier alone, the high road winds you loose,
Water smoothed the stones, but a weary figure stoops
Still in the night,
There's a curse he must find
Come the courier alone, and the flurry of suffering
Past the low sink...
Mark Knopfler - Skydiver Lyrics

I've been banned from every racecourse in the country
There's something about the unsure thing
Like scoring with a beauty of the county
It always makes the old bell ring
I like to go for broke and I'll be ...
I The Breather - Destroyer Lyrics
We've become ill from the power constricted in our minds
We are a mark of the beast our father claimed us not to be
Why must we take strength from a man so pure
And laugh at the words he claimed would set us assail?
A stranger,...
