I Had a Dream

She would be kind.
She'd be sincere.
She would never not be near.
She'd understand in such a way
that the world would dissapear.
Just for now i'm all on my own, I close my eyes and no-ones home.
I had a dream of everyday life
but everyday life just wont do
I want something more asleep or awak
because night and day i feel so blue
I've been dreaming ever since I was a little boy
just playing with my toys
but everything I do
I never have a dream about you.
I would be smart
I would be strong
I'd hold her in my arms all night long
she'd be my spark
and light up my soul
I would never ever be alone.
Just for now it isn't fair, cuz I never dream about her care
I had a dream of everyday life
but everyday life just wont do
I want something more asleep or awak
because night and day i feel so blue
I've been dreaming ever since I was a little boy
just playing with my toys
but everything I do
I never have a dream about you.
some people have dreams about being a star
some people have dreams about travelling far
some people have dreams about falling in love
will I ever get that far?

Help Me

I had you're love but it faded out
now I can't get back.
a love once held; now an endless drought
passing in the distant thunder clouds
what does it mean to be alone?
am I the dry ground or the storm?
I said:
Help me this ain't easy,
I don't want to live in fear
or be a walking doubt machine.
It's you that made me love you
and now that it ain't real
have I felt everything left to feel
have I felt everything left to feel
have I felt everythign left to feel
I give and give but you push me down
I'm a yo-yo back inside your hand
I fly around like a satellite
I'm in orbit but I cannot land
what does it mean to be alone?
am I the black hole or the scope?
I said:
Help me this ain't easy,
I don't want to live in fear
or be a walking doubt machine.
It's you that made me love you
and now that it ain't real
have I felt everything left to feel
have I felt everything left to feel
have I felt everythign left to feel
what does it mean to be alone?
am I the dry ground or the storm?

Good night kisses and a teenage mystery
All the young lovers underneath all the changing leaves
deceitful history
Lie and try to hide it but they did it with love and style
only with love and style
and i'm still
waiting for our love to show us goodtimes
just a shade of inbetween the sunrise
do you remember being seventeen?
when I have a party you'll see just what i mean
good bye morning gives a reason to stay with me
all the young lovers rising up from the greenery
Could you be sweet with em
and i'm still
waiting for our love to show us goodtimes
just a shade of in-between the sunrise
do you remember being seventeen?
when I have a party you see just what I mean
should I run and hide?
are you a friend to me?
can you feel my heart when you get next to me?
If you feel the inside, give a reason to change your mind
let me feel alive.

Ol' Broken Heart
04:03
|

|
In the springtime when all the lovers feel brand new
and the rivers start to part from your overflowing heart
and the ice melts and the waters fine
and you're gonna meet me there and the suns gonna shine
where the river meets the sky
thats when my life starts to fall apart
and my new love song is my old broken heart
thats when the dust starts to sweep away
but my loneliness is here to stay
every time it starts I open my heart
yes it's summer far as I see and her love begins to haunt me
so much different than the spring air always blowing through her dark hair
she's the best lover that i've ever known
but there's to much lightning to get away from that storm
but her body keeps me warm
thats when my life starts to fall apart
and my new love song is my old broken heart
thats when the dust starts to sweep away
but my loneliness is here to stay
every time it starts I open my heart

Breaking Branches

I told that dove that it's safe to fly
to live and die alone
I teach that dove to dance to wake her up
is it still not enough, no it's never gonna be enough
to make her fly
Don't hang onto breaking branches
wait another day to go outside
fly in the light, but don't pass me by
Mama, keep on breaking branches till you die.
can't wait day and night for you to call
so I'll kill a night alone
while you kill two at once
taught myself to fly when you shut me down
it's not me you want honey
it's the chase and I won't run
Don't hang onto breaking branches
wait another day to go outside
fly in the light, but don't pass me by
Mama, keep on breaking branches till you die.
Break that branch of mine.
Break that branch of mine.
it's not safe to fly so don't go outside
i still don't have an answer.

So You Think It's Funny

so you think it’s funny
that you’ve been calling me all of the time.
I know who you are baby
I know where your from
you are a liar baby.
you are a liar
I don’t know why
you tell me dirty lies
you broke my heart once or twice
but to my surprise
damn these lonely nights
yea they’re gonna eat me alive
say you’re coming over tonight
say you’ll lay beside me tonight
but it’s not that way baby.
so you think i’m the fire
and you’re afraid
cuz you know you’re never gonna feel this way.
I don’t know who you are baby
I don’t know anything about you
we are both liars
we are both telling lies
I still don’t know why
you tell me dirty lies
you broke my heart once or twice
but to my surprise
damn these lonely nights
yea they’re gonna eat me alive
say you’re coming over tonight
say you’ll lay beside me tonight
it’s still not that way.
wash it away from my soul like the dust of every day life
everything starts from a spark, just let it die.

Quiet Is The Night
04:12

I never work up the nerve to talk to you
beauty and fear as choices in my hand
It’s not that I wouldn’t tell you something true,
but when it gets heavy you don’t understand
quiet is the night
after burning light
and in the middle of these two is me and you
a rainbow of heaven that i’ve promised you
is a sparkling tear now falling from your eyes
holding a heaviness in it’s water walls.
and leaving a trail to prove that it was there.
quiet is the night
after burning light
illuminated love at once but now in gloom
a love that began the way love often does
diminishes now as light reflects the dust
as night-time silence covers
we drift apart
a concert of two lovers
knifed in the dark
“to love you is my life” she says as she cries.
A voice that isn’t heard.
quiet is the night.

my soul in a river of people going nowhere slow
I feel so all alone
every windows open in my home.
my soul needs to go get up and break the flow
I don’t mind it but it’s too damn slow
a light inside my heart guides as I go
My soul is lighting up pockets of joy
the whole world on the telephone talking hearing my voice
my soul is a living breathing fire down below
a rain can’t cool my sound
i’m a runaway fire burning down the town
my soul is a media frenzy waiting to explode
before wifi had to call to let em know
or radio air-mail ancient morse code.
My soul is lighting up pockets of joy
the whole world on the telephone talking hearing my voice

I know love has caused you great pain
you were an ember and love was the rain
I know to love again would be hard to take
but my love won’t let you down, or let you break
if the world falls apart
and the sun were to fade
I’ll give you my heart
just to watch it break
if the moon were to fall
I wouldn’t care
because darling, theres no weight i wouldn’t bear.
I know there’s a fire still inside somewhere
burning so bright, let me be the air.
if our love would align, the world would be safe
because my heart falls every time i hear your name
if the world falls apart
and the sun were to fade
i’ll give you my heart
just to watch it break
if the moon were to fall
i wouldn’t care
cause darling theres no weight i wouldn’t beer
can you learn to love again
let me be the one
can you learn to love again
let me be the one
