City lights
Darling you're talking
In a language I don't speak
Slowly we're walking
With the air under out feet
And I try to be
Someone that you can recognise
I try to be
The light that's shining in your eyes
Heading for nowhere
Just as far as I can see
We walk over bridges
Though the shadows of the street
And I try to be
Someone that you can follow home
I try to be
Someone that you can't leave alone
Take a walk with me out into the city night
Watch the light of the sun unfold
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right
Would you'll ever be mine to hold
I feel your eyes that read me like a satellite
Sending images to my soul and it's right
But I lose you to the city lights
Darling you're talking
In a language I don't speak
Slowly we're walking
With the air under our feet
And I try to be
Someone that you can follow home
I try to be
Someone that you can't leave alone
Take a walk with me out into the city night
Watch the light of the sun unfold
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right
Would you'll ever be mine to hold
I feel your eyes that read me like a satellite
Sending images to my soul and it's right
But I lose you to the city lights
I lose you to the city lights
I lose you to the city lights
I lose you to the city lights yeah
Take a walk with me out into the city night
Watch the light of the sun unfold
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right
Would you'll ever be mine to hold
I feel your eyes that read me like a satellite
Sending images to my soul and it's rightbut
I lose you to the city lights
Cartwheel queen
It takes one word to make it
And one word to break it
So bind it all together with love
And it takes one look in your eyes
And that kiss at midnight
With silver peppered skies up above
So I'm gonna take you out dancin'
Out in the road dear
We'll dance until we're stood here alone
And although you've got me thinkin'
Well, now's not the time dear
Let's sink another one for the road
Won't you forgive me if I'm talkin' out of line
But how can I forget
Eyes such as yours in front of mine?
I've been listening to you talkin' in your sleep
Hoping I might hear all of the secrets you keep
But your teeth they grind yeh
Gabrielle's my cartwheel queen
Cheap half price roe
Girl what do you say?
Let's spend another night by the sea
I tell a joke on the tramline
But ya run down the punchline
And that's the way it happens for me
Won't you forgive me if I'm walkin' out of line
But how can I forget
Eyes such as yours in front of mine?
I've been listening you talkin' in your sleep
Hoping I might hear all of the secrets you keep
But your teeth they grind yeah
Gabrielle's my cartwheel queen
Maybe I'll need you, maybe I'll leave you
But it doesn't matter
This was enough for me
So I'll let you know girl before you go
That it takes
One word to make it
And one word to break it
So bind it all together with love
And it takes one look in yours eyes
And that kiss at midnight
With silver peppered skies up above
Well gabrielle's my cartwheel queen... Hey!
Two hearts
You'll remember me
Though the memories in your mind
And all your eyes will see
Is just what you left behind
Now I've been tossing and turning
And my heart's burning emotions in my bones
But I'm tryna make sense of the way that it ends
When you tell me you're not coming home
'Cause baby when two hearts beat
Followed by eyes that meet
And the souls in the hurry
That gets close to what they've found
And all of this loneliness
Causes my eyes to miss
What is there right in front of me
Now there's nothing left to find
But I know you'll find somewhere along the line
Love is easy; love is blind
Now I turn my face away
'Cause there's nothing left to see
And I know that you've never cared anyway
For the love inside of me
But now the longer I take
Well the harder it makes it
For me stepping out on my own
And I'm tryna make sense of the way that it ends
When you tell me you're not coming home
Love is easy; love is blind
Love is easy; love is blind
Love is easy; love is blind
Love is easy; love is blind
Fireflies
You held my head and made it strong
Open my mind and turn it on
Out of the street that I belong
You keep it safe for me
Your broken words are never clear
You turn my loving into fear
And over the voices that I hear
You're calling out for me
Tears fall oh but your eyes don't cry for me
Words call out of the places I can't reach
So move on over the pieces left for me
'Cause these emotions that are drowning your eyes
These emotions that are drowning your eyes
I tried to look out for the sparks
Shootin' bullets in the dark
Before the love that's in my heart
Comes pouring out of me
Tears fall oh but your eyes don't cry for me
Words call out of the places I can't reach
So move on over the pieces left of me
'Cause these emotions that are drowning your eyes
These emotions that are drowning your eyes
Ay ay ay ah ah
Ay ay ay ah ah
Ay ay ay ah ah
Maybe all I've ever said
Are things that I'll always regret
So now my love it stands alone
You held my head and made it strong
Open my mind and turn it on
Tears fall oh but your eyes don't cry for me
Words call out of the places I can't reach
So move on over the pieces left of me
'Cause these emotions that are drowning your eyes
These emotions that are drowning your eyes
These emotions that are drowning your eyes
(Shooting around like fireflies)
These emotions that are drowning your eyes
(Shooting around like fireflies)
These emotions emotions emotions emotions yeah
(Shooting around like fireflies)
Arwen
I'll always love you baby
Take a look in my eyes
And hopefully you'll realise
I still think about you
Almost every day
And I've just gotta say
That these days I'm up and I'm down
I need to keep my feet on the ground
'Cause I know that I'll be leaving this time
One day
And then I'll turn and say
I've got to go now, the world is waiting for me
I need to find out if there's someone I can be
Let's say for now girl, at least until we meet again
Arwen you'll be my best friend
Remember when I met you?
Out if your garden alone
Exploring things unknown
You took me to the seaside
In a fiesta you owned
You were mine, mine, mind
But now these days I'm up and I'm down
I need to keep my feet on the ground
'Cause I know that I'll be leaving this time
And then you'll fly away
And then I'll turn and say
I've got to go now, the world is waiting for me
I need to find out if there's someone I can be
Let's say for now girl, at least until we meet again
Arwen you'll be my best friend
For a while
'Till I return
And I see your sweet, sweet smile, yeah
I've got to go now, the world is waiting for me
I need to find out if there's someone I can be
Let's say for now girl, at least until we meet again
Arwen you'll be my best friend
Arwen you'll be my best friend
At least until we meet again
Arwen, you'll be my best friend
How it ends
Another stormy sunday
Raindrops on my heart
I don't need my eyes closed to be in the dark
I can feel you coming a little closer
Your footsteps on the ground
And I don't need to feel you to know where you are
'Cause I can feel you walkin' next to me
Hear your footsteps on the ground
And I know that's the way it's gonna be keep you around
Let's just be lovers
Let's not be friends
Keep it under the covers
And baby that's where it ends
And if my heart it breaks
Well that won't make no difference at all
Another crowded city
There's nowhere left to roam
And I can see your lights on I know that you're home
And I can feel you walkin' next to me
Through I know that you're not there
And I know that that's the way its gonna be to show me you care
Yeah
Let's just be lovers
Oh darlin' let's not be friends
Keep it under the covers covers covers
And know that that's how it ends
And if my heard should break
Well that won't make no difference at all
(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)
All the while I keep waitin'
For you to take what you need
And I try to smile but it's too much
You got me down on my knees
You take so long to even notice
Just what is going on
Tried to be strong and come back home
Come back home yeah yeah yeah yeah!
My sweet darling, my sweet sweet sweet darling
My sweet darling, my sweet darling
That's what I say
Let's just be lovers
Oh darlin' let's not be friends

Another stormy sunday
Raindrops on my hearts
Now I don't need my eyes closed to be in the dark
