- Added lyrics for several of Hope's non-album songs. Please contact me for suggestions or corrections (especially "Wild Roses" and "Killing Smile"). Thanks!
"Wild Roses"
From the Air France compilation In The Air (2008)
... Amazon / iTunesWhen I speak about it now
I put things ... to you
Maybe I've been dismayed
Maybe that's the truthWe're like the roses
Stoned in the backyard
There is no misery
In the time we grew wildWhen I look out the door
I know what it's there for
To leave or to come back
Safe in the morningSafe me ...
Roaming too late
Suddenly I fall dear
In the time we grew wildWe're like the roses
Stoned in the backyard
There is no misery
In the time we grew wild
"Cherry Blossom Girl (Hope Sandoval version)"
From Air's Cherry Blossom Girl Single (2004)
... Amazon / iTunesI don't think to feel like being shy
Don't think i wanna stand it anymore
I just want to say "Hi"
To the one I love
Tell my cherry blossom girlThis is true
I never talk to you
People say I should
I just wanna go out ...
Just wanna be sure be by my side
Tell my cherry blossom girlYes it's true
Yes it's true
This is true
"Angel's Share"
From Vetiver's self-titled album Vetiver (2004)
... Amazon / iTunesMakeshift moon mends a broken sky
Fields of fallow still stands dry
Night not gentle, soon for the nightHer mistake was to trust in him
His bodily excuse again
Yeah, the voices hard like the windSaid, "I'm tired of you coming home late"
"I will do as I please, Kate
"There's no one gon' tell me how to be"
"Not for my sake, Tom, for the family"He read guilt when she pled love
Got anxious and began to shove
Clouds have been kept loomed aboveCurses raised the kids from bed
They fell down the stairs in time to see
The blood run warm down Kate's headWhile the wounds in silence came to scars
Tom kept hitting them jukejoint bars
All the love vanished in the air
Filled with paper vows and the angels' share
"All This Remains"
From Bert Jansch's album Edge of a Dream (2002)
... Amazon / iTunesI've been seeing you
In this house of mine
Got your arms away
From my strange disguise
All the things that you believe
Are still in me
As though you pleaseAnd they shimmer
On the ends of my memories
I could feel your ghost
In the breezeI'm telling you this
So you won't have anything
But this to know
Our colours fade
All this remainsAnd they shimmer
On the ends of my memories
I could feel your ghost
In the breezeIt's not so much
That you should say
You had a love
Turn out this way
It covers your ears
And stops your heart
And holds you nearThe shimmer
On the ends of my memories
I could feel your ghost
In the breeze
"Killing Smile" and "Help Yourself"
From Death In Vegas' album Scorpio Rising (2002)
... Amazon / iTunesKilling Smile
You can spin your world behind my falling star
The slab beneath you in your long killing smile
I've got the time to spare
But you don't need it
I've got my mind in anyway
You can always shine behind my hidden door
Just like a flame although with you I couldn't tell I'm not the one who ever walks away
Don't have a feeling that I wanna waste my time
But you know I ...And you know I want to...with you
All the time (repeat)I'm feeling like I want to hang around
Don't have a ... to lay it down
But you know I want to...with you
And you that I could...with you
All the the while I spend my time making schemes
Now I know when things are always what they seem
But you know they should
Yeah
And you know I want that...to change
And you know I want that...please
Help Yourself
You can't change without someone's shadow
'Cuz then it's gone
when you still shine
You can't change to solve somebody's name
Don't blink until you're madeWhen all destroyed, broke all in Hell,
and you don't need what you could steal;
I'm feeling like something I don't know that's wrong
And I know the sad in my heartHelp yourself with
Help yourself with what you need, yeah
Help yourself when
Help yourself when you don't need it
Help yourselfHelp yourself with
Help yourself with what you need, yeah
Help yourself when
Help yourself when you don't need it
"Asleep From Day"
From The Chemical Brothers album Surrender (1999)
... Amazon / iTunesI know just what your mama said
Always misunderstood
Gotta tell you something
I saw it in your eyesI think I left your back seat
And now it's always good
I fell asleep from day
And all the promisesThere's a lot of people
That let their will to say
I've got a lot of friends
And they've got beautiful eyes
That make my heart feel surprised
And you notice it
And thats the truth
Thats the truthHave me to you
I shine along underneath your view
I'll be the one
To let you know when you've come undoneI like the stars in the sky
And watch the moonlight go by
I've got a lot of friends
"Perfume"
From The Jesus & Mary Chain album Munki (1998)
... Amazon / iTunesMeeow (repeat)
Alive, alive, alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive alive alive aliveBaby I'm in heaven
But I don't believe a word
No I don't believe a word
Going downI'm on five
I'm on five
I'm on five
Alive alive aliveMaybe I got lucky
But I always stood the chance
Yeah I always stood the chance of the prize
"Sometimes Always"
Duet with Jim Reid from The Jesus & Mary Chain album Stoned & Dethroned (1994)
... Amazon / iTunesI gave you all I had
I gave you good and bad
I gave but you just threw it backI won't get on my knees
Don't make me do that please
I've been away but now I'm backDon't be too sure of that
What makes you sure of that
You went away you can't come backI walked away from you
I hurt you through and through
Aw honey give me one more chanceAw you're a lucky son
Lucky son of a gun
You went away, you went away
You went away but now youre backI got down on my knees
And then I begged you please
I always knew you'd take me back
