Are You in Love?
04:29
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
First comes your fear
Your laughter and tears
Then you shout
When you need a name for your doubt
You know what’s happening
When you feel free
Something small
Brings you back to your knees
Reminds you of
Secrets you keep
Now that it’s happening
Could it be like your visions of destiny?
Golden sunset you saw
On a silver screen?
Was it all just a trick
Played by chemistry?
When there’s no other way out
One voice you hear in a crowd
Honey, now you
Now you’re in love
Who disappears
And who do you want to be found
You go where the music is loud
Do you want a theory or thief?
Do you dream on a night with no sleep?
Could somebody make you believe
That it was real?
Could it be like your visions of destiny?
Golden sunset you saw
On a silver screen?
Was it all just a trick
Played by chemistry?
When there’s no other way out
One voice you hear in a crowd
Honey, now you
Now you’re in love
Fight in electric confusion
Laugh away all of your rules
What would you do
If you were in love?
Are you in love?
Are you?
Oh what would you do
If you were in love?
First comes your fear
Your laughter and tears
Then you shout
The music goes
One, two, three
When it happens
Oh and somehow you knew
If you let go of your ruse
If you believe it
You go back to childhood mystery
Wearing it like your mother’s jewelry
Sweetness on earth
Did it still make a fool of me?
When there’s no other way out
One voice you hear in a crowd
Oh honey, now you
Now you’re in love
Laugh away all of your rules, babe
Dance all night long but
Why can’t you tell the truth
If you’re in love?
When the music’s gone soon
And there’s nothing you can do
Do you ever know the truth?
Are you in love when you’re in love?
Are you in love
When you’re in love?

Electric Roses
04:33
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
I’ve found so many ways to hide it from myself
Been practicing this magic since I was a girl
Violets in the snow
All become electric roses
I’ve seen it all, I hold no grudge, I hold no fault
Illusionist, contortionist, I’ve played them all
Violets in the snow
When they want electric roses
Now the nights go on and on
The lights stay on, stay on
Oh the nights go on and on
The lights stay on, stay on,
Stay on, stay on
Stay on
It feels so funny
I think I’ve been here before
The faces seem the same
Not quite forever young
Violets in the snow
They wanted electric roses
Practicing your pose
They wanted electric roses
Now the nights go on and on
The lights stay on, stay on
And the nights go on and on
The lights stay on, stay on
Oh, the nights go on and on
The lights stay on, stay on
Stay on, stay on
Ooh,
Do they stay young
For love?
Violets in the snow (When the nights go on and on)
Want to be electric roses (Stay on, stay on, stay on)
Violets in the snow (When the nights go on and on)
They wanted electric roses (Stay on, stay on, stay on)
Ooh

Your Girl
02:46

-- Lyrics --
Did you let down your girl
All ‘cause you couldn’t face your heart again?
Let your temperature rise and then
Let your anger strike your love away?
In a storm it follows her
All the words it shouldn’t hurt to say
Broken glass and broken hearts for days
Broke a promise you should not have made
When you let down your girl
Yeah, you let down your girl
Yeah, you let down your girl
Now she’s never coming back again
Every time I fall in love
Clouds are gone
But all the sky is grey
Now nobody knows what kind of rain
Haunts me now and haunted yesterday
Well it’s been a long time
Since you left behind a hurricane
Broken glass and broken hearts for days
Broke a promise you should not have made
When you let down your girl
Yeah, you let down your girl
Just say you let down your girl
And she’s never coming back again
Many years gone by
And the tears I cry over you
Fall again
Tell my fears that I
Could be living lies to forget
I won’t forget
No I won’t
I hear it on the wind
Clouds are rolling in
Now they’re over us again
How could you let down your girl?
Did you let down your girl?
Well now she’s never coming back (Let down your girl)
No you can’t bring her back again (Let down your girl)
No you can’t bring her back again (Let down your girl)
Oh no she’s never coming back (Let down your girl)
No you can’t bring her back again (Let down your girl)
Oh no she’s never coming back (Let down your girl)

Light Years
03:45
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
Do you remember your dancing days
Nights when you would stay out till dawn
Starstruck and young
When you thought that you could know
What’s here and what is already gone
When you’ve gone light years
Light years from your hometown
Light years from a road
Going anywhere you know
Someday when you’re light years
Light years from your love
Light years from someone
Anyone that you know
You will still belong
No matter how far you’ve gone
Moonlight calling
Stardust falling off of your clothes
Night’s getting colder
Moonlight feeling
Every night your dreams getting older
Then you go light years
Light years from your hometown
Light years from a road
Going anywhere you know
Suddenly you’re light years
How long were you falling?
Light years shine you on
You will still belong
No matter how far you’ve gone
No matter how far you’ve gone
No matter how far you’ve gone
No matter how far you’ve gone
Suddenly you’re light years
Light years from your hometown
Light years from a road
Going anywhere you know
Someday when you’re light years
How long were you falling?
Light years shine you on
And you will still belong
No matter how far you’ve gone
No matter how far you’ve gone
No matter how long you lost track of time
When you’re out of your mind
In the loneliest night you still belong
No matter how far you’ve gone

Homesick
02:42
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
Every time
Every time
Every time I hear it
I get homesick
The empty trees
Swinging in the breeze
Someone’s whistling like they’re free
Don’t I know that song?
Ah, I thought I knew that song
Take my heavy heart and drive me north
What I’m looking for
It has no name at all
Take my heavy heart and drive me north
We can talk about those days we spent abroad
Every time
Every time
Every time I’m near it
I get home sick from where I was
Dead printed leaves blowing down my street
Someone telling me I was lost
And now I’m found
Oh, I was not!
Oh take my heavy heart and drive me north
What I’m looking for
It has no end at all
Oh, take my heavy heart and drive me north
We can talk about those memories we lost
And if I cry
Oh, I won’t remember why
I get homesick
It happens every time
I get home sick
Can you remember why?

Hall of Mirrors
03:13
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
Last time that I saw you
You were lighting up a show
You got your own hall of mirrors, baby
On and on they go
Now it’s been so long since I have heard you
Singing your own song
You walk in a hall of mirrors laughing
On and on and on
You sing, "oh oh oh oh oh, baby”
Baby, baby, baby
Are you lost?
Staring at your hands
You wonder where your time has gone
Walk in a chain of admirers
Who don’t see you at all
Now it’s been so long since I have heard you
Singing your own song
You walk in a hall of mirrors laughing
And you don’t know who you are
You sing “oh oh oh oh oh, baby”
Baby, baby, baby
Are you lost, Baby?
Baby baby baby
Are you lost?
Who will you see if you look back?
Are you lost?
Who will you see if you turn back?
When you sing “oh oh oh oh oh , baby”
Baby, baby, baby
Are you lost, Baby?
Baby, baby, baby,
Are you lost?
Who will you see if you turn back?
Who will you see if you turn back?
Who will you see when you turn back?

I Believe it Now
00:46

-- Lyrics --
Breathe in, breathe out
The future is a game for us
Never plays out the way it was
I believe it now
I believe it now
I believe it now

No Control
03:58
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
Breathe in, breathe out
The future is a game for us
Never plays out the way it was
I believe it now
But when a tide turns on me
Turns against me and I fall
Fall into the unknown
Nowhere I have been before
All I want is to go on
I swear that I can make it gold
I keep trying to hold on
To my love with no control
When I keep on falling
You left me with no warning
Now I’m still waiting for it
Our love with no control
No control, no control, no control
And I don’t see why
The price we have to pay for love
Gets higher on the way back up
When we’re living now
But when a tide turns on me
Turns against me and I fall
Fall into the unknown
Nowhere I have been before
All I want is to hold on
I swear that I can make it gold
I keep trying to hold on
To my love with no control
And I keep on falling
You left me with no warning
And I’m still waiting for you
A love with no control
No control, no control, no control
Now I don’t belong to you
You left me with no warning
Forget me when I’m falling
Our love with no control,
No control, no control
No control, no control
There’s no future where I’m falling (No control, no control)
No control, no control
Now I don’t know how to love with (No control, no control)
No control, no control
There’s no future where I’m falling (No control, no control)
No control, no control, no control
I keep on falling
You left me with no warning
And I’m still waiting for you
A love with no control
No control, no control, no control
I don’t belong to you
You left me with no warning
Forget me when I’m falling
My love with no control
No control, no control, no control
No control, no control
No control, no control

Pale Blue
03:06
|

-- Lyrics --
The sound was wrong
I’d heard it all before
Everything he’s done
He said it was for love
Running from the rain
Begging him to stay
Running from the pale blue glow
Pale blue glow
Under the shade
You try to hide a bruise
In your eyes
I recognize the hue
Oh keep on running
I believe in you
Believe in you
I saw you in the rain
Irises in bloom
Saw you in the pale blue
Saw them in the night
Light is shining through
Stronger than the pale blue glow
Running from the rain
Indigo betrayed you
Into the pale blue
Saw them in the light
Irises in bloom
Stronger than the pale blue
Will you wear your crown
If the shade is true?
Walk into the pale blue
I believe in you
Irises in bloom
Walk into the pale blue glow
Ooh, pale blue glow
Ooh, pale blue glow
Ooh, pale blue glow
Ooh, ooh

Already Forgiven
03:19
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
They say in time it fades
Forget where you have been
Why can’t I look away from the face I’ve seen
I saw it on those days we spent in the park
Saw you chasing dreams down the boulevard
And I saw you’re already forgiven
It takes so long to say it
Already forgiven
How long I’d let you stay
I can’t escape my name
Now I won’t even try
When my body’s tired of drinking bitter wine
When the cup it breaks in my hand each time
When the cup it breaks in my hand each time
Telling me you’re already forgiven
Will take me years to say it
Already forgiven
How could I let you stay?
I want to leave my mind and let my old ways fall
They took shapes I could not have foreseen
And in my hands this time
I don’t know what I hold
But I know you’re already forgiven
Already forgiven
I took up the pieces of what you made
Tried to build a fire where there was no flame
What I tried to fight in my heart in vain
What I tried to fight in my heart in vain
Telling me you’re already forgiven
It took me years to say it
Already forgiven
How could I let it stay?
Already forgiven
It takes me years to say it
Already forgiven
Why can’t I let it fade?

The Last Time
02:56
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
Please don’t wait
I know you’ll be gone for a while
Plans you made
Now I’m in the way of the ride
Keep on singing softly to me
I won’t hold on tight
This might be the last time
Please don’t stay
We know that it wouldn’t be right
Old mistakes
We’re playing them night after night
Keep on singing softly to me
Don’t turn out the light
This might be the last time
This might be the last time
Oh I know that you don’t want it to be
The last time
And you said that you don’t want it to be
The last time
Oh I know that you don’t want it to be
When you swore it up and down on your knees
That all you really wanted was to be free
Well what else could I have done to believe you?
When my mistakes aren’t enough to keep me away
From what it is I think that I need
Now we’re exactly where we said we would be
The last time

Fables
03:07
|
|||
-- Lyrics --
All fables fail you when you’re older
And still the mirror on your wall
Keeps you from staring into the darkness
What vision’s keeping you awake?
In fairytales you try to stay
They echo back at you like a chorus
And you’re still too young to know
When you’re living for a ghost
Spinning fables when the brightest colour’s fading
Stories fail you when you’re grown
Can’t hide us from our fall
But my love for you is bold
Take it all
I found my old friends back at home
And for my father I had all the answers
Paid a price for pretending
Heroes and villains I had made
They’re all I have left of my day
In one more page of unwritten endings
Am I still too young too young to know
I’ve been living for a ghost
In my mind the brightest colours are unfaded
Stories fail you when you’re grown
Don’t believe them anymore
My love for you is bold but it can’t save you
My love for you is bold but it won’t change you
My love for you is bold
Take it all
How long can I be golden?
If stories I’ve told can’t save my love
Oh how do I be -
How do I be bold?
How do I be bold?
Stories all been told
Can’t save you from it all

-- Lyrics --
Don’t wait for a fortune
Don’t wait for the phone
I’ve been there before you
I know where you’ve gone
Where you keep on running
Where you fall apart
Diamonds in the dust here
Sing into the dark
I’m at the end of the world
Another end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
You fall apart when you fall into it
Love is at the end of the world
In every song that you sing back to it
Love is at the end of the world
I fall apart when you fall into me
Find me at the end of the world
Write it from your future
See it from the start
Casting this all for you
Glitter in the yard
You could keep on running
You could start a war
Diamonds in the dust still
Sing into the dark
Another end of the world
And at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
You fall apart when you fall into it
Love is at the end of the world
In every song that you sing back to me
Love is at the end of the world
I fall apart when you fall into me
Diamonds at the end of the world
Waiting there for you
Waiting there for you
Waiting there for you
Waiting there for you
I’m at the end of the world
And at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Diamonds at the end of the world
Find me at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
Love is at the end of the world
