Amen 02:12
Amen The world is like a film without the amen You got your James Bond madmen and your lucrative Admen Your lipstick ladies. Power suits Too much coffee and a lot of blurred roots Got fuzzy focus due to too much information Too much waiting at a travelling station Nothing is beautiful for too long Every thing’s disposable blink and it’s gone Oh right way, wrong way, easy to despise The more they’re sure they know they’re right. The less they compromise Men wax themselves then wax lyrical 200 hundred Cinderella’s turn up at every ball Fat lipped smiles with no expression Everybodies got designer depression Mother Nature got the sack, Father Time won’t play ball Half the worlds too short and the rest are too darn tall Stretched out faces under neon skies Half the world is starving, the rest ate all the pies My way. Your way. Us and them. We’re having so much fun tonight Lets do it all again

Simple 05:05
Simple Dreams I thought my head was strong enough To override my heart Especially when the end result Is me falling apart But it seems these simple dreams Are not to be ‘Cos I’ve fallen in a bad way Heaven help or praise this day For you. Whats my poor head going to do? You had to go and have it all I never stood a chance The reflection in your armour Showed my heart upon your lance And now it seems my simple dreams Are not to be ‘Cos I’ve fallen in a bad way Heaven help or praise this day It’s true Will you break my heart in two I’m all in favour of romance As long as it’s in books I never thought I’d get hung Up on someone’s pretty looks But it seems these simple dreams Are not to be ‘Cos I’ve fallen in a bad way Heaven help or praise this day for you What’s going to come to Your kisses are much sweeter Than I ever thought they’d be I guess this is the end of my days Spent young single and free ‘Cos it seems these simple dreams Are not to be ‘Cos I’ve fallen in a bad way Heaven help or praise this day If it all ends in sad way I’ll need some help to erase the day That I fell in a bad way For you Oh God, What am I going to do

Who Are You 04:00
Who are you Who are you Where you When you going to cross my path Will I know you when I see your face At some other time in some other place Will I know who you are I’ll know you When you’re here I’ll hold you and you’ll be dear To each and every part of me Until then will you wait for me Though I don’t know who you are chorus But when I find you and you find me We’ll be the lovers baby only we can be Won’t be on our own again I don’t mind waiting I’m just taking my time There’s no point rushing something So sublime Just gona trust that on some unknown day Fat will make you look my way And we will know who we are But when I find you and you find me We’ll be the lovers baby only we can be ‘Cos I will find you and you’ll find me We’ll be the lovers baby only we can be Won’t be on our own again Just gona trust that on some unknown day Fat will make you look my way And we will know who we are

Smile 02:52
Smile He had a winning smile, And I loved him for a while, But it was soon over An intoxicating laugh Unique as an autograph But too soon over Though his touch drove me crazy His style of love was lazy Made me loose my composure Whilst behind his dapper face He watched my fall from grace This heartbreak composer I acted like a fool Breaking every rule Now I can't forget The things that I regret Wish I'd had more sense Could have seen the consequence Of thinking this was love It didn't do what loving does Words can be so fluent When the meanings playing truant And its so soon, so soon over But how bittersweet the rush That comes with a fleeting crush That is so soon, so soon over

Easy 04:01
Easy Is it ok to notice? Is it ok to give a dam? Is it ok to feel this? Is it ok to understand? Is it ok to fight this? Is it ok to take it back? Is it ok to wonder if, It’s ok to fall off track? If everything is easy Nothing would feel good Are you giving up on all of your dreams Cos yesterday hurt you And throwing away the plans that you made Cos you feel they’re too good for you And shaking your head and ringing your hands At all life has dealt you You’ll find the strength to turn it around and be who you want to, be who you want to… Is it ok to wonder how? Is it ok to scream and shout? Is it ok make it yours Is it ok to let it out If everything is easy Nothing would feel good Chorus x2 It will be better when you take control All you need is within you to make yourself whole Your dreams are the answer so make them your goal The light in the tunnel is the light from your soul Chorus Life’s no rehearsal no, this is the show X2 Now, now, now, now etc……

Waiting 03:26
Waiting Do you think you can fool me baby Do I have blind trust And with your love subdue me baby Is this blind lust I can feel that my hearts breaking Full of an empty aching now I can see that she’s waiting baby Is it in vain When you look at her, it’s me your hating I know this game Can’t you see how much how hurting As I sit and watch you flirting So tired of always hurting now break (no vocal) I have to walk away baby Ignore that second thought I know I have to walk away baby This lesson has been taught I want my heart back baby Give me my heart back baby I’m taking my heart back baby now break (with vocal) No one but me can stop it No one but me can change it No one but me can walk away walk away

Ain't There 03:03
Ain’t There Ain’t got no time to worry Ain’t got no time to care Only got time for drinking Cos you ain’t there Ain’t doing no day dreaming Ain’t doing no night sleeping Ain’t doing no believing Cos you ain’t there When you left you took my heart In your pocket or your old suitcase When you left you wiped the smile Right off of my face, so I ain’t got no heart for loving Ain’t got no lips for kissing Ain’t got no dreams I’m dreaming Cos you ain’t there

Loose You 04:58
Loose you How did I loose you? Where did you go? How did I get here? I really must know I just turned and you were gone And now my heart must carry on How did I loose you? I just don’t know Where did the love go? I had it right here When did it go wrong? It just isn’t clear If I could’ve found a better way I would’ve begged you baby stay Where did the love go? When it was right here You didn’t tell me you were leaving Didn’t say you had to go Maybe if I’d had a reason Then I could have let you go Let you go Let you go I wana turn and see you here No more thinking, no more tears I can’t believe it’s come to this Oh baby I miss your kiss How did I loose you? What did I miss?

confusing 03:32
Confusing Everything seems so confusing, I think my perspective has changed Everything that’s in my life Now has to be kind of rearranged It’s like I’m looking through someone else’s window now Now I’m standing in another’s land There doesn’t seem to be a thing I know I want to go home soon And tell me now Cos I need to know Will I be safe here tonight Is it getting dark in here Or is this just loves fading light I’ve had all the feelings here Though no words have been said Your answers are screaming at me You seem emotionally dead Don’t give me a garbled message, no In this language of your own Just let me know am I safe here My heart just needs a home And tell me now Cos I need to know Will I be safe here tonight Is it getting dark in here Or is this just hopes fading light break/bridge Did you think it was ok now To treat me in this way Did you think that I’d just vanish Disappear right out of the way, I am a child of conflict Killed by a war of words Sticks and stones can break my bones And words can break my heart So when you’re looking through my window just Remember, I didn’t make this bed It was made by want and greed But it’s where I have to lay my head And tell me now Cos I need to know Will I be safe here tonight Is it getting dark in here Or is this just life’s fading light

You. Me. Sofa Let’s have a party at mine A bottle of wine Stereo, sofa, you and me There’s no one else about So baby put the lights out And let’s make some sweet memories But I need you know, That as lover’s go I’m as flaky as a girl can be So though it all seems so nice Just take my advice And baby don’t fall in love with me Cos love, ain’t like it is in the movies Champagne and jacuzzis More like dishmops and duties And hearts, they get broken so easy Ya go from loved up and cheesy To broken hearted and queasy Well the fires burnt low And ya ain’t got up to go So I take it your sticking around So baby come close I’ll be your temporary rose Cos you look good in my dressing gown Chorus In the early morning light When we’re being so polite Over toast, marmalade and coffee If you could just read my mind I think you’d probably find I’ll be feeling just a little melancholy
