Songs by The Wedding Present and Cinerama that start with the letter P or Q

Pacific

And what she gets she doesn't want
And what she gets she doesn't want

We swam across the bay
A single plane flew across the sky
Then we lay on our backs and made pictures with the clouds
I tasted the ocean when i kissed her fingers

And what she gets she doesn't want
And what she gets she doesn't want

A warm breeze carried her scent to me
She said "I know i've hurt you"
She took my hand and sighed
"But in the middle of the night you will think of me"

Palisades

I knew something wasn’t quite right; you haven’t said a word all night
We didn’t even kiss
Now you’re suddenly telling me that you’re leaving me
Do I get a say in this?

I thought women were supposed to tell you how they’re feeling
But you’re really the most unrevealing

So have you felt like this for long and will you tell me what went wrong?
I don’t know where I’m at
Oh, you have got to give me more than just “Hey, sorry, there’s the door”
I think you owe me that

You might think you’re sparing me but, no, I really don’t care
I just need to know why

You don’t love me any more
You don’t love me any more

I trust you when you say there’s no one else but, in a way, that would at least make sense
It is impossible to try to talk about all this when I don’t know what I’m up against

You might think you’re sparing me but, no, I really don’t care
I just need to know why

You don’t love me any more
You don’t love me any more
You don’t love me any more
You don’t love me any more

Perfect Blue

And when I turn round to glance at you, you're staring
Your eyes are such a perfect blue that I can't look away
Did I get shy maybe I didn't make it clear?
Darling, I think I'll always want you near

'Cos when I'm away from you it's like something's missing
That sounds drippy but I swear it's true
It just appeared and no it wasn't rehearsed there really was no warning
You're the first thing in my head each morning

The more I have, the more I want you
The more you smile, the more I know that I'll
Never make you sad but I should warn you
That I just might never let you out of my sight

I'm not sure just what I did to deserve you
I'm not complaining, God forbid, I just don't understand
Tell me why haven't you had enough of me?
How have I managed to make you love me?

The more I have, the more I want you
The more you smile, the more I know that I'll
Never make you sad but I should warn you
That I just might never let you out of my sight

Project Cenzo

Oh well you know you got me in a whirl
Because I'm electric boy, you're electric girl
So don't you try to make off
Because we're about to take off

Your social man is here today
To show you round the Milky Way
So don't try to drift off
Because we're about to lift off
Into outer space

Well if you look right there you'll see a star
Now close your eyes that's where we are
So don't you try to make off
Because we're about to to take off
Into outer space

"In the vernacular of space
This is seen T-minus one hour
Sixty minutes before a human being
Named Major Robert Gains
Is lifted off from the Mother Earth
And rocketed into the sky
Farther and longer than any man ahead of him.
Call this one of the first faltering steps of man
To sever the umbilical cord of gravity
And stretch out a fingertip toward an unknown.
In a moment we’ll join this astronaut
Named Gaines and embark on an adventure
Because the environment overhead -
The stars, the sky, the infinite space
Are all part of a vast question mark
Known as the Twilight Zone."
Space

Queen Anne

When you push your hair away and stare at me with sleepy eyes
I get a feeling here, a feeling I don't recognise
I want to give you everything
I've been in love but this is worse
Just want to cling to you and save you from the universe

'Cos I have fallen in a way I've never done before
You're all I need today, I don't want anything more
As unlikely as it seems, it's as if you've just appeared
Out of one of my dreams - I don't care if that sounds weird

'Cos you're beautiful and yet completely unaware
Oh sure I miss my home but I'd live with you anywhere

'Cos I have fallen in a way I've never done before
You're all I need today I don't want anything more
As unlikely as it seems, it's as if you've just appeared
Out of one of my dreams - I don't care if that sounds weird

Quick, Before It Melts

And when you said: "I've got nothing on beneath this dress", that was such great flirting!
I usually find such candidness sort of disconcerting
But you said: "I don't wear underwear because it leaves a stripe
People sneer, but do you think I care? They're usually not my type!"

And soon we're reeling from the beer that we keep buying
You ask me what I'm doing here and I start lying
You're wondering what is on my mind is it a one night stand?
You laugh and say: "Baby I'm not blind!" and then you squeeze my hand

But please, let's be quick before it melts
Please, let's just be quick before it melts

The next thing I know we're in the street and we're being sleazy
You ask me if I want to eat, but I'm too uneasy
You put your hand onto the very place my girlfriend's hand should be
You haven't exactly got the kind of face that invites honesty

But please, let's be quick before it melts
Please, let's just be quick before it melts

You said: "If it feels right I just might let you sleep with me tonight
And then tomorrow, if you do go, you have my word, no-one will ever know"

But please, let's be quick before it melts
Please, let's just be quick before it melts

You said: "It feels right so I just might let you sleep with me tonight
And then tomorrow, if you do go, you have my word, no-one will ever know"
