All You Want
I'd like to watch you sleep at night to hear you breathe by my side And though sleep leaves me behind there's nowhere I'd rather be And now our bed is oh so cold my hands feel empty no one to hold I can sleep what side I want It's not the same with you gone Oh if you'd come home I'll let you know that All you want Is right here in this room All you need Is sitting here with you All you want
It's been three years One night apart but in that night you tore my heart If only you had slept alone If those seeds had not been sown
Oh you could come home and you would know that All you want Is right here in this room All you need Is sitting here with you All you want
I hear your key turning in the door I won't be hearing that sound anymore And you and your sin can leave the way you just came in send my regards to her
I hope you've found that All you want Is right there in that room All you need Is sitting there with you All you want
I'd like to watch you sleep at night to hear you breathe by my side
Don't Think Of Me
So you're with her and not with me I hope she's sweet and so pretty I hear she cooks delightfully a little angel beside you So you're with her and not with me Oh how lucky one man can be I hear your house is small and clean Oh how lovely with your homecoming queen Oh how lovely it must be
When you see her sweet smile baby Don't think of me When she lays in your warm arms Don't think of me
So you're with her and not with me I know she spreads sweet honey In fact your best friend I heard he spent last night with her Now how do you feel
When you see her sweet smile baby Don't think of me When she lays in your warm arms Don't think of me
And it's too late and it's too bad Don't think of me Oh it's too late and it's too bad Don't think of me
Does it bother you now all the mess I made Does it bother you now the clothes you told me not to wear Does it bother you now all the angry games we played Does it bother you now when I'm not there
When you see her sweet smile baby Don't think of me When she lays in your warm arms Don't think of me
And it's too late and it's too bad Don't think of me Oh it's too late and it's too bad Don't think of me
Here With Me
I didn't hear you leave I wonder how am I still here And I don't want to move a thing It might change my memory
[Chorus:] Oh I am what I am I'll do what I want But I can't hide I won't go I won't sleep I can't breathe Until you're resting here with me I won't leave I can't hide I cannot be Until you're resting here with me
I don't want to call my friends They might wake me from this dream And I can't leave this bed Risk forgetting all that's been
[Chorus]
Honestly OK
I just want to feel safe in my own skin I just want to be happy again I just want to feel deep in my own world but I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore On a different day if I was safe in my own skin then I wouldn't feel so lost and so frightened But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin
And I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore
I just want to feel safe in my own skin I just want to be happy again
Hunter
With one light on in one room I know you're up when I get home With one small step upon the stair I know your look when I get there If you were a king up there on your throne would you be wise enough to let me go for this queen you think you own Wants to be a hunter again wants to see the world alone again to take a chance on life again so let me go
The unread book and painful look the tv's on, the sound is down One long pause then you begin oh look what the cat's brought in If you were a king up there on your throne would you be wise enough to let me go for this queen you think you own Wants to be a hunter again wants to see the world alone again to take a chance on life again so let me go let me leave
For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now and I don't know what to say to you but I'll smile anyhow and all the time I'm thinking, thinking
I want to be a hunter again want to see the world alone again to take a chance on life again so let me go.
I'm No Angel
If you gave me just a coin for every time we say goodbye Well I'd be rich beyond my dreams, I'm sorry for my weary life I know I'm not perfect but I can smile and I hope that you see this heart behind my tired eyes If you tell me that I can't, I will, I will, I'll try all night and if I say I'm coming home, I'll probably be out all night I know I can be afraid but I'm alive and I hope that you can trust this heart behing my tired eyes
I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly
I know I'm not around each night and I know I always think I'm right I can believe that you might look around
I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly
Isobel
I thought it was funny when you missed the train When I rang you at home they said you left yesterday I thought it was strange when your car was found by the tree in Ennis where we used to hang around Dear Isobel I hope you're well and what you've done is right Oh it's been such hell I wish you well and hope you're safe tonight
It's been a long day coming and long will it last when it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass by loving you more
And who he would become, all the things he'd have done would he have loved you, and not let you down and would he be stronger than his father don't punish yourself, leave it well alone
Dear Isobel I hope you're well and what you've done is right Oh it's been such hell I wish you well and hope you're safe tonight
It's been a long day coming and long will it last when it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass by loving you more
My Life
What I choose to do is of no concern to you and your friends Where I lay my hat may not be my home, but I will last on my own 'Cause it's me, and my life it's my life
Oh the world has sat in the palm of your hand not that you'd see and I'm tired and bored of waiting for you and all those things you never do
'Cause it's me, and my life it's my life
My Lover's Gone
My lover's gone his boots no longer by my door he left at dawn and as I slept I felt him go Returns no more I will not watch the ocean My lover's gone no earthly ships will ever bring him home again bring him home again
My lover's gone I know that kiss will be my last no more his song the tune upon his lips has passed
I sing alone while I watch the ocean My lover's gone no earthly ships will ever bring him home again bring him home again
Slide
Even on a day like this when you're crawling on the floor Reaching for the phone to ring anyone who knows you anymore It's all right to make mistakes you're only human Inside everybody's hiding something
Staring at the same four walls, have you tried to help yourself The rings around your eyes they don't hide, that you need to get some rest
It's all right to make mistakes you're only human Inside everybody's hiding something Take time to catch your breathe and choose your moment
Don't slide
Even at a time like this when the morning seems so far Think that pain belongs to you but it's happened to us all
It's all right to make mistakes you're only human Inside everybody's hiding something Take time to catch your breathe and choose your moment
Don't slide
You brought this on yourself and it's high time you left it there Lie here and rest your head and dream of something else instead
Don't slide
Take My Hand
Touch my skin,and tell me what you're thinking Take my hand and show me where we're going Lie down next to me, look into my eyes and tell me, oh tell me what you're seeing So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling what you feel now is what I feel for you Take my hand and if I'm lying to you I'll always be alone if I'm lying to you See my eyes, they carry your reflection Watch my lips and hear the words I'm telling you Give your trust to me and look into my heart and show me, show me what you're doing So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling what you feel now is what I feel for you
Take my hand and if I'm lying to you I'll always be alone if I'm lying to you Take your time, if I'm lying to you I know you'll find that you believe me you believe me
Feel the sun on your face and tell me what you're thinking Catch the snow on your tongue and show me how it tastes Take my hand and if I'm lying to you I'll always be alone if I'm lying to you Take your time, if I'm lying to you I know you'll find that you believe me you believe me
White Flag
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you, Or tell you that. But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder Or return to where we were
I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be
I know I left too much mess and destruction to come back again And I caused nothing but trouble I understand if you can't talk to me again And if you live by the rules of "it's over" then I'm sure that that makes sense
I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be
And when we meet Which I'm sure we will All that was there Will be there still I'll let it pass And hold my tongue And you will think That I've moved on....
I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship And I won't put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I'm in love and always will be
Thank You
My teas gone cold,Im wondering why I got out of bed at all The morning rain clouds up my window and I cant see at all And even if I could itd all be grey, but your picture on my wall It reminds me that its not so bad Its not so bad I drank too much last night, got bills to pay My head just feels in pain I missed the bus and therell be hell today Im late for work again And even if Im there, theyll all imply that I might not last the day And then you call me and its not so bad Its not so bad and
I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life
Push the door,Im home at last and Im soaking through and through Then you handed me a towel and all I see is you And even if my house falls down now, I wouldnt have a clue Because youre near me and
I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life
Stoned
When you're stoned, baby, I am drunk And we make love, it seems a little desolate It's hard sometimes not to look away And think what's the point when I'm having to hold this fire down I think I'll explode if I can't feel this freely now
[Chorus:] If you won't let me fall for you Then you won't see the best that I would love to do for you Instead you will be missing me when I go Cos' I'm bored of hangin out in your cold
When I feel loved baby, I join the road And the world moves with me When I feel lost I just slip away Silently, quietly take my things and go And think what's the point, think where's the hope we're coming home
[Chorus]
And if you find one day, find some freedom and relief With this freedom maybe, maybe you will find some peace With this peace baby, I hope it brings you back to me Bring you home, take me home
[Chorus]
Oh, take me home Oh, take me home When you're stoned, baby, take me home Oh...
Life For Rent
I haven't ever really found a place that I call home I never stick around quite long enough to make it I apologize that once again I'm not in love But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking
It's just a thought, only a thought
But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine
I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea To travel the world alone and live more simply I have no idea what's happened to that dream Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me
It's just a thought, only a thought
But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine
If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine
While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try Well how can I say I'm alive
If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine
If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine Cos nothing I have is truly mine Cos nothing I have is truly mine Cos nothing I have is truly mine
Mary's In India
Danny is lonely Mary's in India now She said she'd call but that was three weeks ago She left all her things well, her books and her letters from him But as the sun rises on Mary sets on him And just dance, and just drink And just see the things I probably never get the chance to see Danny's not eating, he's drinking and sleeping I saw him last night at party, he's definitely thin He says he's happy, look pretty good But I think That as the sun rises on Mary sets on him And just dance, and just drink And just see the things I probably never get the chance to say Danny came over last night and I cooked for him He talked about you Mary and how much we loved you still He told me he's packed up your books and your letters and things But as the sun sets on Mary, it's rising on him And we danced, and we drank And I've seen something you probably never got the chance to see Don't worry, Mary Cause I'm taking care of Danny And he's taking care of me
See You When You're 40
I've driven round in circles for three hours It was bound to happen that I'd end up at your I temporarily forgot there's better days to come I thought that I would give it just one more chance
Cos' I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
You think that you are complicated, deep mystery to all Well it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special All energy no meaning, with a lot of words So paper thin that one real feeling, could knock you down
And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
So see you when your 40, lost and all alone being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know not sad because you lost me but sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd well if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out I wouldn't have picked you out
Now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my time? and I'll be on my way, and I won't be back cos I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about your just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
Don't Leave Home
Like a ghost don't need a key Your best friend I've come to be Please don't think of getting up for me You don't even need to speak When I've been here for just one day You'll already miss me if I go away So close the blinds and shut the door You won't need other friends anymore
Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home
If you're cold I'll keep you warm If you're low just hold on Cause I will be your safety Oh don't leave home
I arrived when you were weak I'll make you weaker, like a child Now all your love you give to me
When your heart is all I need
Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home
If you're cold I'll keep you warm If you're low just hold on Cause I will be your safety Oh don't leave home
Oh how quiet, quiet the world can be When it's just you and little me Everything is clear and everything is new So you won't be leaving will you
Oh don't leave home, oh don't leave home
If you're cold I'll keep you warm If you're low just hold on Cause I will be your safety Oh don't leave home
Who Makes You Feel
I don't touch you the way I used to I don't call and write when im away We don't make love as often as we did do what couldn't wait now waits and usually goes away
But listen and think when I say it Oh but listen and think when I say it Who makes you feel the way that I make you feel Who loves you and knows you the way I do Who touches you and holds you quite like I do Who makes you feel like I make you feel
I don't mind if you come home late I don't ever ask you where you've been I just assume there's a problem will you tell me
But listen and think when I say it Oh but listen and think when I say it Who makes you feel the way that I make you feel Who loves you and knows you the way I do Who touches you and holds you quite like I do Who makes you feel like I make you feel Who makes you feel like I make you feel Who makes you feel like I make you feel
Being weak when I am strong Being seen, who you are Being sad and love's not alone
But listen and think when I say it Oh but listen and think when I say it Who makes you feel the way that I make you feel Who loves you and knows you the way I do Who touches you and holds you quite like I do Who makes you feel like I make you feel
Sand In My Shoes
Two weeks away it feels like the whole world should've changed But I'm home now And things still look the same I think I'll leave it till tomorrow to unpack Try to forget for one more night That I'm back in my flat on the road Where the cars never stop going through the night To a life where I can't watch sunset I don't have time I don't have time
[Chorus:] I've still got sand in my shoes And I can't shake the thought of you I should get on, forget you But why would I want to I know we said goodbye Anything else would've been confused but I wanna see you again
Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanity should run a bath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here Try to remind myself that I was happy here Before I knew that I could get on the plane and fly away From the road where the cars never stop going through the night To a life where I can't watch sunset And take my time Take up our time
[Chorus]
I wanna see you again Two weeks away, all it takes to change and turn me around, I've fallen I walked away and never said that I wanted to see again
[Chorus x2]
I wanna see you again I wanna see you again
Do You Have A Little Time
If you're feeling low and lost today You're probably doing too much again You spend all your hours just rushing around Do you have a little time Do you have a little time for me? Slow down my love you're confusing me If you're feeling stressed just try calling You spend your time waiting for anyone to see Do you have a little time Do you have a little time for me? If you should stop for a while You will find me standing by Over here at the side of your life I'd like to hold you still, remind you of all you've missed If you have a little time If you have a little time that is
Why do you still run when you could walk with me Life will pass you by when you move as quickly What can you see when you're spinning around Do you have a little time Do you have a little time for me If you should stop for a while You will find me standing by Over here at the side of your life I like to hold you still, remind you of all you've missed If you have a little time If you have a little time that is
If you let me listen I'll make you feel clear You spend your time waiting for anyone to see If you should stop for a while You will find me standing by Over here at the side of your life I'd like to hold you still, remind you of all you've missed If you have a little time If you have a little time that is If you should stop for a while You will find me standing by Over here at the side of your life I'd like to hold you still, remind you of all you've missed If you have a little time If you have a little time that is
This Land Is Mine
From behind these walls I hear your song Oh, sweet words The music that you play lights up my world The sweetest that I’ve heard Could it be that I’ve been touched and turned Oh Lord, please finally…finally things are changing
[Chorus:] This land is mine but I’ll let you rule I let you navigate and demand Just as long as you know…this land is mine So find your home and settle in Ohhh, I’m ready to let you in Just as long as we know…this land is mine
After all the battles and the wars The scars and loss I’m still the queen of my domain and feeling stronger now The walls are down a little more each day Since you came, finally…finally things are changing
[Chorus]
Follow the days I’ve travelled alone In this cold and colorless place till now It’s what I had to pay
[Chorus]
This land is mine and I let you rule I let you navigate on demand Just as long as you know…this land is mine
See The Sun
I'm comin' 'round to open the blinds You can't hide here any longer My God you need to rinse those puffy eyes You can't last here any longer
And yes they'll ask you where you've been And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day Well I promise you you'll see the sun again And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Come on take my hand We're going for a walk, I know you can You can wear anything as long as it's not black Please don't mourn forever She's not coming back
And yes they'll ask you where you've been And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day Well I promise you you'll see the sun again And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness And I promise you you'll see the sun again And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Do you remember telling me you found the sweetest thing of all You said one day this was worth dying for So be thankful you knew her at all But it's no more
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day Well I promise you you'll see the sun again And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness And I promise you you'll see the sun again And I promise you you'll see the sun again And I promise you you'll see the sun again And I promise you you'll see the sun again I promise you you'll see the sun again
See the sun again See the sun again See the sun again See the sun again
See the sun again See the sun again See the sun again See the sun again
