| Let's Not Talk About Love | |
|
I don't know if I love you
Or if it's all in my head
I don't know if I love you
Though I know it's what I said
Cuz love is something I don't understand
Can't explain, I can't hold in my hand
But I'll stay here tonight
And I'll keep the flame alight
But let's not talk about love
I don't know if I love you
Though I feel some pain
I don't know if I love you
Or if I'm playing the game
Cuz love is something I don't understand
Can't explain, I can't hold in my hand
But I'll stay here tonight
And I'll make you feel alright
But let's not talk about love

| You Left Me a Song | |
|
Out of the glitter and the shine,
Out of the corner of my eye,
Saw you walk in, I freezed the frame,
My luck again.
We could have been strangers if we tried
Moved to the rhythm side by side,
Maybe a glance across the room,
Blue moon
Why do the hours burn so long?
Sunset and shadows call,
I hear the music playing on
I know you're gone but you
You left me a song
Under the skylight after dark,
Crept in to find you, what a lark
We were like children stripping down,
The joy we found.
But even the lights that turn me on
Make it so hard to see beyond;
Make it a rainbow in my mind
- This borrowed time
Why do the hours burn so long?
Sunset and shadows call
I hear the music playing on
I know you're gone, but you
You left me a song
You left me a song
You left me a song
|
| Drink It In | |
|
How many days are left
And what to spend them on?
Should I keep working
Or sit and marvel at the sky?
I think about your skin, your fragile skin
The heaven of life we're living in
Drink it in, drink it deep
I pray to life your soul to keep
Drink it in, drink it in
Pink clouds scatter
My heart beats clear
For all the hearts that I hold dear
Drink it in, drink it deep
I pray to life, your soul to keep
Drink it in, drink it in
Drink it in, drink it in

| River of Life | |
|
I wanted to feel like a bird on the wings of time
But it was not our time
I wanted to lie for a while in the fields and dream
But it was not to be
Cuz sometimes you've gotta let love go
Even though it's hurting, even though
And sometimes you've got to let love slide
Out with the river, the river of life
I wanted to hold you so long in the dark till dawn
But I could feel you go
I wanted to sing; in my head I could hear a song
But it was not our song
Cuz sometimes you've gotta let love go
Even though it's hurting, even though
Sometimes you've gotta let love slide
Out with the river, the river of life

| One Day in June | |
|
One day in june, I slipped away
Called by desire, drawn to the flame
My virtues disappeared
Light on my feet
Whispers as sweet as honey calling to me
One day in june
One day in june
I felt the hunger, I ate the fruit
One day in june
So don't cry for me
I had my chance;
I took a risk - I asked the wind to dance
Don't try to save me; I'm already gone
Everything's over
But I'm burning on
One day in june
One day in june
I felt the hunger, I ate the fruit
One day in june
Oh and I don't like how it feels to tell all these little lies
Try to be the one you can count on, but it's a thin disguise
I kissed it all goodbye
One day in june

| Storm | |
|
Storm's out on the water,
I watch it getting closer,
Are you coming home?
All these years we've wandered
Trying to break the cycle
All these years of hope
And my heart feels the strain,
But it makes me feel like I'm alive again
Well sometimes in our lives
We need the pain
So I find some candles,
Put out all the anchors
Pull the shutters down
It makes me think about us
All those things that got lost
Still we're holding on
And the storm rushes in
But it makes me feel like I'm alive again
Well sometimes, in our lives we need the pain
The wind, the rain, the storm will wash us clean again
The wind, the rain, the storm will make us think again
The wind, the rain, the storm will shake us up again
The wind
And maybe we can start again
Storm's out on the water,
Sea and sky become one
Are you coming home?

| I Wanna Be Your Light | |
|
Nothing's promised in this life
So I am thankful that we're here tonight
Take my hand and let's look up
At the stars - we can make them ours
I wanna be your light
Let me be your light, I'll light your way
Across the milky way
I wanna be your star
Let me be your star, I'll light your way
Across the milky way
I don't want to see you cry
All that pain you hold inside
Life is waiting don't forget
You are free - I'll help you see
I wanna be your light
Let me be your light, I'll light your way
Across the milky way
I wanna be your star,
Let me be your star, I'll light your way
Across the milky way
There's no time in life to judge
Only time enough for love
So as another night slips by
Let us dance beneath the sky
|
| Aquamarine | |
|
Aquamarine
All that glitters lies beneath
Deep blue, shallow green
I won't let it go
Aquamarine
You're my sexy little daydream
Deep blue, shallow green
Gotta make it so
Aquamarine
Send it up into the gulf stream
Deep blue, shallow green
I won't let it go
Now is the dream
Now is the dream
Aquamarine

| All I Need | |
|
Can we love each other?
And respect each other?
Find some joy together?
That's all I need
All I need
That's all I need
I don't want your money
Or all your time
Just a heart that's beating
With mine
That's all I need
All I need
That's all I need
And when you've got the world on your shoulders, you'll see
I'll be there for you like you'll be there for me
Cuz that's all I need...
|
| Everytime | |
|
See the lights go by
Streaks against the sky
You've been by my side
You've been on this ride
All the times I've cried
All the nights beside
You have brought me round
Yours the thorny crown
Where the sea grass grows
Dark among the stones
You have thrown the line
Saved me every time
|
| Fool for You | |
|
You came into my life, I don't think that you meant to
You were standing in a doorway I was trying to walk through
Like an angel or the devil, I could never quite say
It doesn't matter anyway
Cuz I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
Open my heart and let the wind blow through
I'm a fool for you
Well you can tell me anything and I'll believe
Cuz when you keep me hanging it only feeds the dream
I'm never going to reach you - you're a distant shore
But you've still got me coming back for more
Cuz I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
Open my heart and let the wind blow through
I'm a fool for you
Let the wind blow through
Now the snow is falling; all the roads are gone
The earth keeps moving but I am moving on
I had so much to tell you, but no words to say
It doesn't matter anyway
