Bring Me Home
05:31
|

|
I don't wanna hear another word
There's nothing left to say
I don't wanna travel down this road
Losing my way
I don't wanna spend another night
Standing here alone
Waiting for my truth
To carry me home
I don't wanna play the games you play
There's nothing left to lose
I don't want you standing in my way
There's nothing left to prove
I don't wanna spend another night
Standing here alone
Waiting for my truth
To carry me home
Bring me home
Bring me home
For too long I've been wandering this road
Let me step out of the cold
I'm strong enough to walk alone
My truth I know
You will find me
Bring me home
I don't wanna walk across old ground
There's nothing left to find
I don't wanna lose the path I've found
I've made up my mind
I don't wanna spend another night
Standing here alone
Waiting for my truth
To carry me home
Bring me home
Bring me home
For too long I've been wandering this road
Let me step out of the cold
I'm strong enough to walk alone
My truth I know
You will find me
Bring me home
I won't let the shadows hold me back
And I won't let tomorrow
Be a prisoner of my past
I won't let my questions
Remain unasked
And the answers won't
Stand in my way
Bring me home
Bring me home
For too long I've been wandering this road
Let me step out of the cold
I'm strong enough to walk alone
My truth I know
You will find me
Bring me home
Bring me home
Bring me home
For too long I've been wandering this road
Let me step out of the cold
I'm strong enough to walk alone
My truth I know
You will find me
Bring me home
Let me step out of the cold
I'm strong enough to walk alone
My truth I know
You will find me
Bring me home

Pretty Flower
03:59

You, are are my near and far,
You, no matter where you are,
You, can build your steel bars around my heart...
Like the pretty flower,
Tender when she's picked,
And just as beuatiful,
Standing right where she is...
You can hold the pretty flower,
For her everlasting hour,
Tender in your heart,
For always.
You, are my every breath,
You, are my loneliness,
You, can hold the whole world to ransom, for my innocence...
Like the pretty flower,
Tender when she's picked,
And just as beuatiful,
Standing right where she is...
You can hold the pretty flower,
For her everlasting hour,
Tender in your heart,
For always.

Just a Young Girl
04:21
|

|
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
In a world full of darkness,
where grownups play,
Where the shadows cast around her
Are her only friendly face,
She holds them dear
And she keeps them close,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
In a world full of strangers,
Where noone knows her name,
Where nothing ever changes,
But nothing stays the same,
She shows no fear,
she knows him well,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.
Close the door,
Prepare your guise,
Sheild her face,
From her reflection in your eyes,
Let your strong hands,
Loosen from her waist,
She is just a young girl, finding her way.
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
She is just a young girl,
Finding her way,
In a world full of darkness,
Where grownups play,
Where the shadows cast around her
Are her only friendly face,
She holds them dear
And she keeps them close,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.
She holds them dear and she keeps them close,
In the arms of her keeper lies her ghost.

Sorry
04:15
|

|
Well, I was seventeen
I was fresh out of love school
I didn't understand the meaning
And I didn't know the rules
You took my heart
And you pulled it closer to you
And you let it go
And I didn't know
What was I supposed to do
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
You say sorry
like that's all you need to do
I was blinded by the darkness
Like the lonely dead of night
I was drowning in the tears
That came flooding through my light
Stumbling through the debris
I was trying to find my way
I was lost and lonely
A wandering soul
With nothing left to say
But Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
We say sorry
like that's all we need to do
Sometimes we hurt far too much
And sometimes it seems
It's never quite enough
Sometimes we take what we need
But we never get to keep
We're never close enough
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
We say sorry
Like that's all we need to do
Well, I was seventeen
I was fresh out of love school
I didn't understand the meaning
And I didn't know the rules
You took my heart
And you pulled it closer to you
And you let it go
And I didn't know
What was I supposed to do

if...
03:45
|

|
When I was just a child
My imagination would run wild
I was dreaming of a world of all things new
But isn't that quite ordinary
Like Father Christmas and tooth fairy
I don't think I'm different to you
But if I had a father
And if I had a mother
Would I see a world beneath these scars
Would the lay down beside me
Underneath the sky
Would they wrap me in a blanket made of stars
As the years they passed me by
You faded like the lullaby
You sang to me before I feel asleep
The one day I remember
When you held me so tender
And gave to me your love for me to keep
If I had a father and if I had a mother
Would I see a world beneath these scars
Would they lay down beside me
Underneath the sky
Would they wrap me in a blanket made of stars
As I look back upon my years
With far more laughter than my tears
I think I might not miss you quite so much
If I could turn back time for you
I know exactly what I'd do
I'd hold you in my arms
To feel your touch
If I had a father
If I had a mother
Would I see a world beneath these scars
Would they lay down beside
Me underneath the sky
Would they wrap me in a blanket made of stars
If I had a father
If I had a mother
If I had a sister
And if I had a brother
If I had a best friend
And if I had a lover
Would they wrap me in a blanket made of stars

Into Crazy

I'm on the edge of crazy
I've been here before
I hear your voice
I hear your call
Into crazy
Into crazy
I'm on the edge of crazy
With my back against the wall
Watch me climb
Watch me fall
Into crazy
Into crazy
I can see you coming in the distance
And I'm running for my life
Following the path of least resistance
I've got nowhere left to hide
I hear you voice, I know your call
I've seen your face, you've been here before
You wait for me, you build your wall
You watch me climb and then you watch me fall
Into crazy
Into crazy
I'm on the edge of crazy
And I'm standing at your door
I followed you
I answered your call
Into crazy
Into crazy
I can see you coming in the distance
And I'm running for my life
Following the path of least resistance
I've got nowhere left to hide
I hear you voice, I know your call
I've seen your face, you've been here before
You wait for me, you build your wall
You watch me climb and then you watch me fall
Into crazy
Into crazy
Now, I'm on the edge of crazy
Banging on your door
Do I keep knocking until you decide I'm what you're looking for
Am I what you're looking for
Am i crazy
Am i crazy
I can see you coming in the distance
And I'm running for my life
Following the path of least resistance
I've got nowhere left to hide
I hear you voice, I know your call
I've seen your face, you've been here before
You wait for me, you build your wall
You watch me climb and then you watch me fall
Into crazy
Into crazy
I can see you coming in the distance
And I'm running for my life
Following the path of least resistance
I've got nowhere left to hide
I hear you voice, I know your call
I've seen your face, you've been here before
You wait for me, you build your wall
You watch me climb and then you watch me fall
Into crazy
Into crazy
Into crazy

Purple Love
05:20

You ask me if I knew tonight
If all the things you said were right
I told you I dont talk to fear
But if we have a chance for life
Then what the hell and who is right
Open up a can of beer
For what you see
comes staring back at me
I know the signs
Let's not pretend
To do this as a friend
You must be mine
You don't see me as I do
I want to be with you
But your history's stained
The palette of your broken heart
You just see the colour blue
But my colour changes hue
But you never stay
To see the colour purple love
And now the time has come to talk
About the things we've said and done
Kisses that were soft and sweet
Of lovers past and lovers true
Of how the world could not love you
Let them love the world
You love me
For what you see
comes staring back at me
I know the signs
Let's not pretend
To do this as a friend
You must be mine
You don't see me as I do
I want to be with you
But your history's stained
The palette of your broken heart
You just see the colour blue
But my colour changes hue
But you never stay
To see the colour purple love
For what you see
comes staring back at me
I know the signs
Let's not pretend
To do this as a friend
You must be mine
You don't see me as I do
I want to be with you
But your history's stained
The palette of your broken heart
You just see the colour blue
But my colour changes hue
But you never stay
To see the colour purple love

Castles In The Sand
02:26
|
|||
|
We build our love
On the sandy shore
Where the moon pulls the tide
And the boats come to moor
In the shallow waters
We build our love
And we build our home
Where the sun will rise
To warm through the stones
Of these cold walls
Grain by grain
And with our own two hands
We build our castles in the sand
We build our love
As strong as we can
Before it crumbles in our fingers
And slips straight through our hands
Castles in the sand
were never meant to last
Or stand the test of time
And as the waves crash down
We can't hold back the tide
And we can't turn back time
And everything we ever find
Is surely only left behind
In the shallow waters
We build our hopes
And we build our dreams
We watch them flow
Through rivers and streams
To the shallow waters
Castles in the sand
were never meant to last
Or stand the test of time
And as the waves crash down
We can't hold back the tide
And we can't turn back time
And everything we ever find
Is surely only left behind
In the shallow waters
We build our way
And we walk our path
Guided by the certainty of past
To these familiar shores
And as we tread the cusp
Of sand and sea
The tide steals to dust
Our faded memories
To the shallow waters

Broken
04:08
|

|
She doesn't know what she's lost
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
If she could turn back time
If she could mend a broken heart
If there was a place where she could find
To step out of the dark
If she had a hand to hold
When she closed her eyes
A broken promise would never be told
A chance to make it right
She doesn't know what she's lost
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
They told her she would be just fine
But they didn't understand
Cos she knows something's cannot heal with time
And her heart will never mend
The comfort that they offered
Proved helpless over time
Now they visit often with a tear in their eye
To lay flowers by her side
She doesn't know what she's lost
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
She doesn't know what she's lost
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken
It's too late for her
Her heart is broken

Leave A Light On

Leave a light on when you go
Show me the things I used to know
Fill your colour through my darkest day
Leave a light on when you go
Leave a light on when you go
Feel the warmth of you afterglow
Grant me a wish that you'll forever stay
Leave a light on when you go
Leave a light on when you go
Show me the things I used to know
Fill your colour through my darkest day
Leave a light on when you go

This House
04:59

This house of mine
Holds a century of secrets
One hundred years of history
Laid testament to bear
Within these walls
And underneath my feet
One hundreds years here standing
One hundred more to meet
This house of mine
Is the place where I grew
My playground and my fortress
Where I first met you
Nestled in the green
In the shadows of the leaves
Halfway along the avenue
Between the old oak trees
This house of mine
Was standing here before me
One hundred years of mystery
And memories to share
The trinkets shining
With sentimental meaning
Hidden in a box
Underneath the stair
This house of mine
Is the place where I grew
A sanctuary for generations
Home to old and new
Nestled in the green
In the shadows of the leaves
Halfway along the avenue
Between the old oak trees
Lead
This house of mine
Is standing cold and empty now
One hundred years of history
Awaits one hundred new
Faded paint and weathered brick
As seasons come and go
One hundred years here standing
A lifetime passing through
This house of mine
Is the place where I grew
I see it from my window now
Standing just in view
Nestled in the green
In the shadows of the leaves
Halfway along the avenue
Between the old oak trees
This house of mine
Is the place where I grew
My playground and my fortress
Where I first met you
Nestled in the green
In the shadows of the leaves
Halfway along the avenue
Between the old oak trees
