1. THE CONVERSATION

Any time we have a conversation
It's never what you wanna hear
It's funny how much words can hurt you
Even after all these years
I wanna make an observation
'Bout how you tear your world apart
And every time I try to tell you
You blame it on your fickle heart

How they're hurting you
When they're not deserving you
Are so, are so afraid of you
It's time to have a conversation

Give it up,
I'm never gonna hold you up
You've always been afraid of love
It's time to have a conversation

Waking up is never easy
So why don't you come over here
Tell me 'bout the dreams that haunt you
Tell me 'bout your secret fears
I wanna change your obsession
If only I could make you see
How it's all your own creation
That's bringing you this misery
How they're hurting you
When they're not deserving you
Are so, are so afraid of you
It's time to have a conversation

Give it up,
I'm never gonna hold you up
You've always been afraid of love
It's time to have a conversation

The words you hear in your head
Were never said, were never said
The heart you break, you mistake
For me instead, for me instead

How they're hurting you
When they're not deserving you
Are so, are so afraid of you
It's time to have a conversation

Give it up,
I'm never gonna hold you up
You've always been afraid of love
It's time to have a conversation

Hurting you
When they're not deserving you
Are so, are so afraid of you
It's time to have a conversation

Give it up,
I'm never gonna hold you up
You've always been afraid of love
It's time to have a conversation

2. DRY YOUR EYES

It's been so long
It's been a year since you've been here
You're looking good
Let's snatch a tune and have a beer

We'll have a heart to heart
There's talking to be done
No teardrops from the start
We've only just begun

Oh darling, please
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes

You want the one
But you can never let him know
That it's been hard
In time you'll learn to let it go

You can't keep hanging on
You're feeling like you can't go home
I know your mind's made up
Though it feels as if it's come undone

Oh darling, please
Dry your eyes
Oh darling, please
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes

It's just emotions that are
Running down inside your head
Yeah, we could talk on by
What's to left to say we haven't said

Oh darling, please
Dry your eyes
Oh darling, please
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes

3. IF THIS ISN'T REAL

Chorus
If this isn't real
I don't know what is
Still got my lipstick
On your skin

If this isn't love
Then I'm not strong enough
If this isn't real
I don't know what is

Don't cry
Why are you so afraid?
Know I'm not trying to fake
What you mean to me
Know this
There's nothing in this world
Could take you away
Away from me

Chorus
If this isn't real
Then tell me what is
Am I a misfit
In your mind?

If this isn't love
I guess it's time to quit
If this isn't real
I don't know what is

Don't cry
Why are you so afraid?
Know I'm not trying to fake
What you mean to me
Know this
There's nothing in this world
Could take you away
Away from me
[x2]

4. I WILL ALWAYS

Always my love
It has never been this way before
And all of the words that I hold
Let him come knock on my door

You don't know
Who to turn to
That I know
But you're always
You're always
You're always
Forever, my love

Try to be better than this
For never let the music
For so many lies and a kiss
So please don't let the music

You don't know
Who to turn to
Yes, I know
But you're always
You're always
You're always
Forever, my heart

Yes, you're always
You're always
You're always
Forever
You will always
Always
You'll always
Forever be in my heart

5. TALK ABOUT LOVE

Open yourself up and listen to what you're saying
It's no surprise to watch the game you're playing

Yea yea, watch yourself, you're slipping
Yea yea, you give it out, you're giving

It's hard to see what you have never known how
You're at the bottom so get back up and turn it out

Yea yea, I can see you falling
Yea yea, I know I hear you calling

Love
All that you talk about is love
L-O-V-E, love
That's all you talk about

Why can't you let go, voice what you are feeling?
Why such an ogle, what's the big deal, hey

Yea yea, I can feel it coming
Yea yea, I know that it's coming

So you don't speak but you know that I can hear you
You're not unique, there's a million others like you

Yea yea, I can feel you breathing
Yea yea, it's time for you to reel it in

Love
All that you talk about is love
L-O-V-E, love
That's all you talk about
[x2]

Yea, love
L-O-V-E, love
That's all you talk about, love
That's all you talk about

Yea, love
All you talk about is love
All that you talk about's love
L-O-V-E, love

Yea, love
That's all you talk about, it's love
That's all you talk about, it's love
L-O-V-E, love

Love
All you talk about is love
All that you talk about is love
L-O-V-E, love

Love
All you talk about is love
L-O-V-E, love
That's all you talk about

6. HID FROM the Light

Can you see her in me
Lost of all emotions
Watch me dance in your face
Feels the longest sentence

Falling around her long black hair
The beggars and the thieves and all who dare
You know all that love her will despair
'Cause what they'll find there
Is hid from the light

Can you see her in me
Lost of all emotions
Watch me dance in your face
Feels the longest sentence

Falling around her long black hair
The beggars and the thieves and all who dare
You know all that love her will despair
'Cause what they'll find there
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the…

Falling around her long black hair
All the beggars and the thieves, let all who dare
You know all that love her will despair
'Cause what they'll find there
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the light
Is hid from the light
Fall into the night
Fall into the night
Fall into the night
Fall into the night

Falling, falling…

7. BE TRUE

What do you want from me?
Each time I turn the corner
I feel a little bit older

When, when you say to me
Maybe you can make it easy
Taking all your time to tease me

You lead me to the doorway
You're looking like you mean it
You're leaning to me sideways
But I can't take you serious
For that you want me to choose
Say I'll always love you forever, be true

I don't care what you say
I'm gonna love you my way
Don't wanna play these tired games

So if I'm gonna stay
What will you do to have me?
Let's lay it down, some guarantee

You lead me to the doorway
You're looking like you mean it
You're leaning to me sideways
But I can't take you serious
For that you want me to choose
Say I'll always love you forever, be true
[x2]

For that you want me to choose
Say I'll always love you forever, be true

8. MAYBE I

I couldn't be
Always what you need
Maybe I didn't care
Which was hard and unfair
Maybe I didn't need to
Breathe in and reach you

Always, forever
Forever, together
All the time
Lately, all the time

Maybe I didn't help
Handed you everything to yourself
I could not leave you
For the hell you gave to me
I could not leave you
Nor could you have left me

Always forever
We'll take it together
You're half on your knees
And I'm on the floor

It's always forever
You've kept us together
And each time you leave
I need you here with me

Maybe I didn't mind
Maybe I didn't cry
I needed everything to die

9. HEARTS ARE MADE TO STRAY

Stop…
These hearts are made to stray
I've seen it all before
And I'm worried 'bout you, I'm worried 'bout you

Why are you so afraid?
The wolves are at your door
Well I'm coming for you, I'm coming for you

I'll tell you something
Don't you worry about them
You don't ever have to fall
You don't ever have to fall in love

Don't tell me it's too late
I'm fighting for you babe
I know you want to fight for me to stay
Than cry your life away
When you can see it through
I'm coming for you, I'm coming for you

I'll tell you something
Don't you worry about them
You don't ever have to fall
You don't ever have to fall…

Stop…
These hearts are made to stray
I'm running for you babe
I'm coming for you, I'm coming for you

I'll tell you something
Don't you worry about them
You don't ever have to fall
You don't ever have to fall…
[x2]

10. BIG WORLD

Met you on a Monday, never knew how far we'd go
Took your time to tell me someone else was long ago
The world keeps on turning, trying to find my feet
Searching for the rainbows, I'm just tryna make ends meet

Never tried to tell you how to make your life go smooth
Never tried a point of view, were only me and you
The world keeps on turning, trying to find my feet
Searching for the rainbows or I'm heading for the street

Times are changing every day
Times are changing
I find it hard with every breath I take
I wonder why we make mistakes
But I can't wait
But I can't wait
But I can't wait another day

Maybe it's the time for you to pack it up and go
Sick of hearing the same old song, you locked it in too low
The world keeps on turning, trying to find my feet
Searching for the rainbows, I'm just tryna make ends meet

Times are changing every day
Times are changing
I find it hard with every breath I take
I wonder why we make mistakes
There's just some things
That you can't change
And I can't wait another day

The world keeps on turning, trying to find my feet
Searching for the rainbows, I'm just tryna make ends meet

Keeps on turning
The world keeps on turning
Keeps on turning
It keeps on turning
It keeps on turning
Keep on turning
It keeps on turning
The world keeps on turning
It keeps on turning
It keeps on turning
It keeps on turning
It keeps on turning

11. I NEED TIME

Time
Is all I need
To find somebody
Someone just for me
[x2]

In comes a darkness then falls the night
Send a heavenly creature to turn on my light

Time
Is on my side
When there's nobody
To play in my mind

Taking my time now to let myself go
You got myself steady and ready, I know

I find it so funny after so long
The way you look at me
Just don't understand
It still feels oh so wrong

Cause time
Is all I need
To find somebody
Someone just for me
[x2]

In comes a darkness then falls the night
Send a heavenly creature to turn on my light

Not sentimental, don't wanna be friends
You know that was killing me, ran in deep end
Advance straight through your hands

Time,
I got time
Time,
Oh it's my time
Time
Is all I need
To find somebody
Someone just for me
[x2]

In comes a darkness then falls the night
Send a heavenly creature to turn on my light

Time
Is on my side
When there's nobody
To play in my mind

Taking my time now to let myself go
You got myself steady and ready, I know

I find it so funny after so long
The way you look at me
Just don't understand
It still feels oh so wrong

Cause time
Is all I need
To find somebody
Someone just for me
[x2]

In comes a darkness then falls the night
Send a heavenly creature to turn on my light

Not sentimental, don't wanna be friends
You know that was killing me, ran in deep end
Advance straight through your hands

Time,
I got time
Time,
Oh it's my time

1. I DON'T WANT A LOVER

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I don't want a lover
I just need a friend

You can't just leave me
To face life on my own
I know you don't love me no more
I knew this day it would come
Even when it cuts so deep
It's true I still want you
But the harder I try
The more I seem to lose

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I've had time to recover
Now that I know it wasn't love

It's always a different story
When it's me who's in the wrong
But you can't have it all
Cause I'm the one who's strong
I've already been burnt before
Once but never again
I know the time will come
That's when you need me then

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I've had time to recover
Now that I know it wasn't love

I don't want a lover
I just need a prayer
I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasn't love

You don't even care
About what I'm saying
You don't even think
What you're doing
All you see is what you want it to be
But in there there's just no room for me

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I've had time to recover
Now that I know it wasn't love

You don't even care
About what I'm saying
You don't even think
What you're doing
All you see is what you want it to be
But in there there's just no room for me

I don't want a lover
I just need a prayer
I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasn't love

I don't want a lover
I just need a prayer

I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasn't love

2. SUMMER SON

I'm tired of telling the story
Tired of telling it your way
Yeh I know what I saw
I know that I found the floor

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

I thought I had a dream to hold
Maybe that has gone
Your hands reach out and touch me still
But this feels so wrong

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

I'm over you

3. HALO

Bright light city
You're her religion
Superstars in their own private movie
Play just like children

Lies that take her
Places she's never seen
The kiss and tell of it all
To her it seems so obscene

She's so pretty
Her hair is a mess
We all love her
To that we confess

She has a halo
We really do adore her
For she has a halo
Can we touch her

For their blindness
She sees much further
Like on a wide-screen viewing
Going down on her

She's so pretty
Her hair is a mess
We all love her
To that we confess

She has a halo
We really do adore her
For she has a halo
Can we touch her

She believes in everything
She believes in nothing, in everything

Halo, halo, halo, halo
Halo, halo, halo, halo

She has a halo
We really do adore her
For she has a halo
Can we touch her

She has a halo
We really do adore her
For she has a halo
Can we touch her

She believes in everything
She believes in nothing, in everything
She believes in everything
She believes in nothing, in everything

For she has a halo
She has a halo


4. IN DEMAND

When we were together I was blown away
Just like paper from a fan
But you would act like I was just a kid
Like we were never gonna last
But now I've got someone who cares for me, (yeah)
Wrote my name in silver sands
I think you know you've lost the love of your life
You said I was the best you've ever had
Because I'm in demand,


You're thinking of the way you should've of held my hand
And all the times you'd say you didn't understand
You never had our love written in your plans
But now I'm In Demand

I never think you saw the best of me
There's a side you'll never know
'Cos love and loving are two different things
Set your sights far too low
But now I've got someone who cares for me,
He wrote my name in silver sands
I think you know you've lost the love of your life
You said I was the best you've ever had
Because I'm in demand,

Chorus x2

It's only when I fall asleep
I see that winning smile
When my dreams just move along
You've lost the race by miles

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah x2
Stay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Because I'm in demand

Refrain

You know I'm in demand
Say you're in demand
You know I'm in demand,
Always in demand,
Never had our love written in your plans
You know I'm in demand.

Hurting you
When they're not deserving you
Are so, are so afraid of you
It's time to have a conversation

Give it up,
I'm never gonna hold you up
You've always been afraid of love
It's time to have a conversation

6. WHEN WE ARE TOGETHER

Oh, I remember you said can I fight and breathe
So now I always, always hold my breath you see
You're my heaven, you're my spaceman in your shiny shiny suit
I'll send up all my prayers and hope they're understood

Love started making sense
I always make mistakes at my expense
Love has placed a seed
And you're the sun that shines down upon me

Yeh when we are together
And when we are apart
There is no space in our hearts
I've got these feelings

It's been too long since I've tried to take the time
So now I'm fallin', fallin' into the sublime
When you brush against a stranger
And you both apologise
And when you see there's something you recognise

Love started making sense
I always make mistakes at my expense
Love has placed a seed
And you're the sun that shines down upon me

Yeh when we are together
And when we are apart
There is no space in our hearts
I've got these feelings

Yeh when we are together
And when we are apart
There is no space in our hearts
I've got these feelings
Yeh when we are together
And when we are apart
There is no space in our hearts
I've got these feelings

Yeh when we are together
And when we are apart
There is no space in our hearts
I've got these feelings

Yeh when we are together
And when we are apart
There is no space in our hearts
I've got these feelings

7. ONCE IN A LIFETIME

There are things
I can't tell you
I love you too much to say
I stand undressed
But I'm not naked
You look at me and who I am

Understand that it is hard to tell you
That I've given all I have to give
And I can understand your feelings
But then everybody has a life to live

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Now reach out
You can touch me
I'll let you have my life to share
Years, the days
And the minutes
Yeh time has such a puzzling grace

Understand that it is hard to tell you
That I've given all I have to give
And I can understand your feelings
But then everybody has a life to live

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

I just need to have your love
I just can't say no
It's a gift from way above
I just can't say no
It's the one big difference
If there's one thing I can have
I just can't say no
I just can't say no
Yeh yeh yeh

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime

Say What You Want

Twenty seconds on the back time
I feel you're on the run
Never lived too long to make right
I see you're doing fine

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

What I am is what you want of me
Yeh, now that I'm not there
I took the tables away from you
It's turned that I don't care

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

Well, you can say what you want
But that won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But that won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

I've said goodnight
Try to sleep tight
Ah just dream of me
Go close your eyes
Cause I've closed mine
The sun will shine from time to time
Oh, when you dream of me, yeh

Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

9. BLACK EYED BOY

No I don't lack ambition
Can't you see what I hate
That it's you who is sicking
Locked behind iron gates

You should know
You're falling into fiction
I can tell
You're on some foolish mission

You're black eyed soul
You should know
That there's nowhere else to go
My black eyed boy
You will find
Your own space and time

You call me superstitious
Tie me up with your deceit
I could never be malicious
Though I seem so bittersweet

You should know
You're falling into fiction
I can tell
You're on some foolish mission

You're black eyed soul
You should know
That there's nowhere else to go
My black eyed boy
You will find
Your own space and time

Black eyed soul
You should know
That there's nowhere else to go
My black eyed boy
You will find
Your own space and
Time

Yeh, you should know
You're falling into fiction
I can tell
You're on some foolish mission

You're black eyed soul
You should know
That there's nowhere else to go
My black eyed boy
You will find
Your own space and time

Black eyed soul
You should know
That there's nowhere else to go
My black eyed boy
You will find
Your own space and time

Black eyed soul
You should know
That there's nowhere else to go
My black eyed boy
You will find
Your own space and time
