The Man Who Fell to Earth c.WildCat Records Sydney Australia 22-2-18
You sang to me in French and Italian
I held you to my chest and then I pinned you to the wall
You give to me your sweet science fiction
The needle drops again and you open up the door
Bridge: You broke me when you left me
Even though we never met
I hope the man among the stars is treating you well
CHORUS: You were the man who fell to earth
Saved me with a song
You were the man who fell to earth
Rock n roll with lipstick on
No one could wear glitter like you did
You lived on your emotions and you gave us so much more
You lit the world in serious moonlight
Dancing underground and howling through the attic door

Eye to Eye 12/2/18 c. WildCat Records Amanda Easton Sydney Australia
(8 Bars)
When night time closes in around us
And day ^is stripped ^a\way
You say my name like something precious
And take my breath away
BRIDGE: It’s not possession for us
It’s belonging to us
No such thing as close enough
So much passion for us …impenetrable
CHORUS: Truth will show
When you stand so close
We’re eye to eye
Toe to toe, so close ….Eye to eye
Our world is just this room right now
Just where we want to be
No one sees me quite as clearly
In these spaces in between
(CHORUS)
M8: Sometimes I hold onto the hurt
Like a medal at my heart
But we can’t take this for granted
CHORUS: Truth will show
When you stand so close
We’re eye to eye
Toe to toe, so close ….Eye to eye

I Saw the Message
I saw the message that you sent her
I think I know what it implies
But do I risk taking off this lid
When I’m not sure what is inside
And all that’s saving me, is possibility
That there’s another explanation for this
I’m holding on to just, a possibility
That this isn’t what I think it is
Let me hold on....hold on...let me hold on
CHORUS: I saw the message
About your love.....About your hearts.....About your lives ....Before Me
You’re considering a life that had a different ending
And you wonder if you should have gone
Now I’m holding this grenade but I don’t know if I should throw it
Cause the damage has already been done
CHORUS: I saw the message I saw your message
Bridge: I shatter glass to channel heartache
Can this really change us?
No matter what you say to her
She can't touch us
CHORUS: I saw the message
About your past.....About your hearts.....About your lives ....Before Me
I saw the message
I saw the message
I saw the message

Letter to a Small Boy c.25/2/18 WildCat Records Sydney Australia. Amanda Easton.
If I could teach you all the secrets that I’ve learnt
About the world, I would
And I would show you only goodness in the world,
If I could
But don’t be frightened of pain, we need it like the rain
It’s there to help us to the other side
It’s the times that are hardest at first
That can mean the most and make it all worthwhile
Pre Chorus: Take this song
To keep, till later on
My love is in this song
So you’re not alone
CHORUS: I write a letter to a small boy
You might not get it now
But maybe one day, when I can’t put my arms around you
These words will mean to you, so much more
You were born with such a handsome face
But that can’t replace compassion and kindness
Make sure you look for all the beauty in the world ….around you
And inside people too, they’ll give it back to you
And they’re really all that matters in the end
PRE + CHORUS x 2

Polaroids and Postcards Amanda Easton WildCat Records
Didn’t like the same bands Didn’t fight over the same man....
What a trip you and me
You know I didn’t ever mean To let you fall in my slipstream
DO you ever think of me
CHORUS: A dress I wore A song I used to adore
Pack away those polaroids and postcards
Now time’s persuading Those memories are fading
Are they bitter or sweet?
Souvenirs and mistakes Sticking back together heatbreaks
I really miss you and me
CHORUS: A dress I wore A song Ah used to adore
Pack away those polaroids and postcards
M8: I’m the same girl It’s the same world
Just can’t believe you’re at a loss for words
You’re the same girl with a new punchline
I’ll keep your secrets, you know all of mine
CHORUS: A dress I wore A song Ah used to adore
Pack away those polaroids and postcards

Rockabilly Blue c. Amanda Easton Sydney Australia 1-9-17
We can be like a Southerly Buster
Blowing up when we get together
But you’re a cool change
And I wouldn’t want it any other way
Y’ say my life is charmed, I hold it in my arms
All the years and places we have seen
Be fearless like a flame, now there’s a battle to win
And Time comes Time goes We’re still here
CHORUS 1: This. is .my an-them to you
My Rockabilly Blue-o-o (Rockabilly Blue)
I’m sending love to you
Don’t leave us so soon my Rockabilly Blue
I remember a room bathed in neon
You dedicated me a Bowie song
Presents in my glove box
And makeup on a boy
Cider in the sun, burgers on the run
Punk music in an old Italian car
We had all the attitude but we couldn’t go far
CHORUS 1: This. is .my an-them to you
My Rockabilly Blue (Rockabilly Blue)
I’m sending love to you
Don’t leave us so soon Rockabilly Blue
(8 bars)
M8: So much history, runs /betwee—e-n us,
A cord so strong and lasting
Mascara runs now, done my face
You’ll dust me off again
CHORUS 1 +
CHORUS 2: This is my anthem to you..
Don’t /leave us so soon, My Rockabilly Blue
