Looking for Atlantis (04:03)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
If you're looking for Atlantis

You should cast your eye on me

Put your two and two together

Don't you know who built Atlantis

Then returned to the sea

Don't you know who owns the weather ?

Rain or shine

Sure is good to seek a challenge

Sure is fine to set your sights

Sure is foolish to be blinded

There are legions out there churching

Searching for the holy grail

Isn't one of them can find it

All this time

You should be loving someone

And you know who it must be

Cause you'll never find Atlantis

Til you make that someone me

You should be loving someone

And you know who it must be

Cause you'll never find Atlantis

Til you make that someone me

Say you do find your volcano and the darn thing is still hot

Lesson one : Child don't waste it

Lesson two : The world's your cherry

But tomorrow ? Maybe not

Lesson three : Come on and taste it

All this time

You should be loving someone

And you know who it must be

Cause you'll never find Atlantis

Til you make that someone me

You should be loving someone

And you know who it must be

Cause you'll never find Atlantis

Til you make that someone me

Wild Horses (03:44)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
Through the rails I spied

Your ponytail. I tried

With sugar cubes - And they're O.K.

But I don't think

I'll catch you that way

I hate myself 'cause you're so cool

With your mocking eyes

"Won't you look at the old fool"

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to

Look at you - Unflawed.

Now look at me - Plain overawed

Grace and looks take no credit for

Girl you're young

And they're part of the score

Like the chemicals at war in me

'Til I'm a wolf with an eye for the ponies

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to

I want extra time to play,

Afternoons in the hay

It's a sorry way for a man to feel

But sentimental is part of the deal

I hate myself because it shows how

I'm a fool for your rodeo

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have you

We Let the Stars Go (03:39)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
There was that girl I used to know

She'd tease me about my name

Fan the embers long enough

I sometimes catch her flame

The soothing voice of distance tells me

"That was just a fling"

Other music fills my ears

But I still hear her sing :

She sings :

Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe

Don't you remember me ?

How long ago one gorgeous night

We let the stars go

Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe

Don't you remember me ?

How long ago one gorgeous night

We let the stars go free

There was a boy I used to be

I guess that he was cold

If she came to buy him now

How cheaply he'd be sold

But the light is gone and it is dark

What used to be the sky

Is suddenly embarrassing

To the naked eye


You see :

Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe

Can't face this memory

How long ago one gorgeous night

We let the stars go

Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe

Can't face this memory

How long ago one gorgeous night

We let the stars go

Long ago one gorgeous night

We let the stars go

Long ago one stupid night

We let the stars go free

We let the stars go free

We let the stars go free

We let the stars go free

We let the stars go free

Carnival 2000 (03:23)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
Tonight let's raise a glass my friend

To those who couldn't make it

A century has shut its eyes

And who are we to wake it ?

Cool music we play, dance and say

Carnival 2000 :

Lives come and go but life no denial

Is always in style. Welcome to :

Carnival 2000 :

Loves come and go but love above all

Is belle of the ball

We ask for any wrong we've done

The years ahead forgive us

We ask for any good we've done

That all of it outlive us

Cool music we play, dance and say

Carnival 2000 :

Lives come and go but life no denial

Is always in style. Welcome to :

Carnival 2000 :

Loves come and go but love above all

Is belle of the ball

Welcome to :

Carnival 2000 :

Lives come and go but life no denial

Jordan: The Comeback (04:13)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
They say the spirit moves in mysterious ways

Sometimes the way it moves looks plain berserk

But two things you should be slow to criticize

A mans choice of woman and his choice of work

Some work'll earn you top dollar

In this here tinsel town

That's where I started thinkin' of something else

Cos they couldn't film the spirit

From the waist on down

Sometimes I don't sleep too well,

But one day I know :

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

And all those books about me

Well there wasn't much love in 'em boys

I'm tellin' you if I'd taken all that medication

Man, I'da rattled like... one o' my lil girls toys

Now they call me a recluse

Been in the desert so long

Layin' on my back bidin' my time

I'm just waitin' for the right song

Then I'm comin' back

Sometimes I don't sleep too well,

But one day I know :

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

Jordan sweet Jordan

Hand me any cup you find that's lyin' spare

Lord I've long time been a thirstin' for a share

Jordan waiting for me there

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

Jordan sweet Jordan

Hand me any cup you find that's lyin' spare

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

Jordan sweet Jordan

Hand me any cup you find that's lyin' spare

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

End of the road I'm travelling,

I will see Jordan beckoning

Jordan sweet Jordan

Hand me any cup you find that's lyin' spare

Paris Smith (02:55)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
Little Paris Smith

Lovely name for a girl is Paris Smith

Baby Paris Smith

Don't repeat my mistakes Paris Smith

Paris : Any music worth its salt is good for dancing

Paris : But I tried to be the Fred Astaire of words

Paris you heard

Little Paris Smith one day you'll have a job

Yes Paris Smith

Baby Paris Smith don't you grow up a snob

No Paris Smith

Paris : There are benefits to syncopated motion

Paris : Which no high falutin' double talk can show - Paris

Paris : Any music worth its salt is good for dancing

Paris : But I tried to be the Fred Astaire of words

Paris you heard

Michael (03:02)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
All the jobs I've ever held, positions I have known

The one I was a fool to leave was

Right hand to the throne

Ambition took me speed of light

To God's exclusion zone

Michael if you're listening,

Michael who stayed true

One of us got out of line when Paradise was new

One of us was exiled and the one who wasn't's you

Michael - help me write a letter to you know who

I will sign it "Lucifer regrets..."

Can't forget his final words were

"Ain't no comeback gonna come your way"

What if I pray ?

Michael the archangel listen.

Michael don't you see ?

We've come to stand for principles that

Prove free will is free

If you are on the side of good

Now where does that leave me ?

Michael - help me write a letter to you know who

I will sign it "Lucifer regrets..."

Can't forget his final words were

"Ain't no comeback gonna come your way"

He never could resist a sinner

Or ignore a distress call - but such a fall

Doo Wop in Harlem (03:43)
Prefab Sprout • Jordan: The Comeback
There is a door we all walk through

And on the other side I'll meet you

Reunion in the air - A cappella meets pure prayer

Somewhere : I can't wait to meet you there

Somewhere : I can't wait to meet you there

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight

They never sang doo-wop in Harlem

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight

They never sang doo-wop in Harlem

There is a door it may seem locked

But in a little while - Don't be shocked

Above the noise, behind the glare

I know you're listening out there - Somewhere

Somewhere : I can't wait to meet you there

Somewhere : I can't wait to meet you there

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight

They never sang doo-wop in Harlem

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight

They never sang doo-wop in Harlem

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight

They never sang doo-wop in Harlem

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight

They never sang doo-wop in Harlem
