Outa My Head You mean nothing to me A distant memory A faded dream And I don’t care If you’re out there It seems a lifetime since you went I guess it was something you said You came in my world like a prayer Since you no one compares Now I can’t get you outa my head You see, you see what I see You little mystery Liar and cheat Cos my world Was just a quiet world Until I found out where you’d been You see you’re nothing to me Now your life is in your hands |
Under the Sun When I reach out for you my love Always wondering just what you’re thinking of As the silence comes between us all in black I realise you’re not coming back It’s okay, it doesn’t matter anyway When we see what we have become It’s alright, we’ll make it through the night Cos there is nothing new under the sun One fleeting moment so hard to hold I had the chance to lay you down all in gold From your mouth come words I can’t understand And I realise you’re not coming back |
We Can Make This Day Don’t walk away from the life we made Don’t get hung up on a plan Take shelter from the coming storm And babe I’ll get back when I can When I’m not with you And I can’t see you Please just hold on We will make a change Throw it all away We will start again anew We can make this day Better than yesterday We can make a change it’s true When I’m far away Keep your fear at bay Live each moment like your last Put your mind ease Is this where you want to be? And babe I’ll get back when I can Through hours of darkness Over miles of ocean I will come home |
Grace Life, real life What’s it all about I thought I told you things weren’t great I’d thought of everything And now you’ve gone so far away I can’t even tell If you were ever really here at all When I look into your eyes It comes as no surprise When we feel this state of grace You’re still here There’s a hundred million stars Shining bright in outer space There’s no other place like ours A slowly dying sun Reflecting everyone’s fate |
Perfect Circle Feel a weight across your shoulder Feel a load upon your back Each day a little colder Each year a little more off track As the darkness surrounds you And brings you to your knees There’s a place you will remember Some kinda hope, some little peace Stop waiting for the tide to turn Don’t blame it on unlucky stars No matter where you are No matter where you’ve been Start living through this life In a place outside of nowhere Take a walk across the sand Try to draw a perfect circle Just to see if you can There can be a time to believe in And hear the truth once again To feel the warmth of another And rise above the pain Stop waiting for the tide to turn Don’t blame it on unlucky stars There’s a better way to change your track What brings you down, what holds you back It‘s all up to you to see it through In good or bad or mad or sad There’s a better way to cut right through So take a chance and let it loose Stop waiting for the tide to turn Don’t burn, don’t burn, don’t burn |
The Believer Free me from the bonds you hold me to Believe me I pose no danger to you girl And my lover I will be there waiting for you Like no other there’ll be no hesitating for you girl Take it up high Take it down low Take it on easy You know it ain’t easy to be the believer My world is a strange and quiet world And my life has been filled with precious jewels There’ll be no changing won’t follow the latest thing Cos your freedom is always waiting round the bend |
Ballad of Jeanie Rose Jeanie was a good girl she was seventeen Looking for adventure but she’d never been Just one lover and that was enough She took a little test but she was out of luck Johnny was bored he was out all night But somehow good times always turned to a fight In the morning couldn’t raise his head And then he’d go out and do it all again She says life goes on Treat me bad and baby I’ll be gone Jeanie had the baby made a promise that day Her child would never want in any way Johnny was crazy her father was right It never would be easy having him in her life Now she’s older living on her own Seems like good times are so far gone Dreaming of life she’s only seen On the pages of a magazine |
My Loneliness I’m stuck on your face Can’t remember your name Going around in circles I’m back at the start Wipe the slate clean Trying to change the future Wherever you are Whatever you do I can only hope you’re happy now My loneliness cuts me to shreds I disappear without a trace And I can’t believe I let you slip away And now I’m never gonna see your face I look for a sign Searching the stars Trying to get my bearing Guiding me on Leading me home But they don’t shine so brightly now |
Never Be Able Now and then I’m down at the edges I keep it all to myself I hideaway keeping my distance Want you and no one else I’ll never be able to keep waiting on my own I’ll never be able to keep waiting all night long Now that we’re older we can make it on our own I’ll never be able So here we are both of us lonely And searching for something else No matter how hard I keep trying I want you all to myself Now I’m watching as she walks away Now she’s fading away And I don’t know why She could live again She could breathe again In my mind |
Hollywood Whisper Did he tell that he needs her That he just can’t live without her It was a night to remember It was never meant to end this way Put it on a big screen Tearing at their heartstrings You couldn’t drag me away Drowning in emotion leading to redemption The hero lives to fight another day Did he say it in a whisper That he could’ve been a contender Say that he’s never going to leave her Than walk away right out of frame I love your way And I love the way you say it Any old cliché sounds new |
Strong Everything is wonderful When you’re riding high Everything is possible When you feel inspired But the valley below Can lead me to fall When the road ahead is long Testing my faith Cos I’m not that strong There’s a stranger in my head Watching from inside Can’t believe that you can’t see it Just look into my eyes The night is my friend Can’t get out of bed Was a light in my head But now it’s gone Now that you know That I’m not that strong Don’t you know that anyone could see That there’s really nothing wrong with me I have everything I’d hoped A kids, wife and home And that makes me strong |
