Tunde 1집 - Tunde (2004) by Tunde (보컬) on maniadb.com

Singer, sing a song
A little heart and soul
Singer, sing it soft and low
Such a lonely key
Feels like home to me
A familiar melody

Passing the hours when only music saves the night
I feel like an angel in a window
Forbidden to fly
Passing the hours how I just lose track of time
Passing the hours

Simple life of mine
Left it all behind
It's a charge I can't deny
Singer, sing the blues
Nothing left to lose
Watch the world go drifting by

Passing the hours when only music saves the night
I feel like an angel in a window
Forbidden to fly
Passing the hours how I just lose track of time
Passing the hours

I hate my dreams to die
It's wearing me out
And no wonder why
I'm just a face in a crowd
All serving time

Passing the hours when only music saves the night
I feel like an angel in a window
Forbidden to fly
Passing the hours how I just lose track of time
Passing the hours
Passing the hours when only music saves the night

Passing the hours
Passing the hours
Passing the hours

Hey, so you threw your heart right in
And it turned out less than perfect
A losing streak is starting in your mind
You let yourself believe the pain
Is never gonna be worth it

Don't beat yourself up
Know that you were never wrong for wishful thinking
So you done lost the battle
Should we just cross out your name and let you sink

You got me feeling like the last surviving
Great romantic
But stop dreaming and the world stops spinning around
You feel foolish cause love never turns out
Like you planned it
But stop believing and the world starts letting you down

So, you had to let it go
It clearly wasn't working
A new love leaves you trembling
You hide behind the door
So unsure of what you used to know

So now you think you're every move ten steps ahead
And you are frozen
Caught inside yourself
You're drowning as the anger overflows

You got me feeling like the last surviving
Great romantic
But stop dreaming and the world stops spinning around
You feel foolish cause love never turns out
Like you planned it
But stop believing and the world starts letting you down

You got me feeling like the last surviving
Great romantic
But stop dreaming and the world stops spinning around
You feel foolish cause love never turns out
Like you planned it
But stop believing and the world starts letting you down

So ...

Step from you car back into the real world
Can't hold your heat in the cold light of day
I won't find the heart to accept that we're over
As long as you're there I can beg you to stay

You say that you need to talk later
But I can't hold it together
So I call right away

Letting me down gently
Is breaking my heart slowly
And this can't be better
So just get it over
Cause holding on desperately
In fear that you might leave me

Is breaking my heart slowly
(letting me down gently)
Is breaking my heart slowly
(breaking my heart slowly)
Letting me down gently
(letting me down)
Is breaking my heart

Chasing around have you twisted and stumbled
Losing your way to end up by my side
Now you are ready to change your direction
Remember you came with your eyes open wide

You say that you need to talk later
But I can't hold it together
So I call right away

Letting me down gently
Is breaking my heart slowly
And this can't be better
So just get it over
Cause holding on desperately
In fear that you might leave me

Is breaking my heart slowly
(letting me down gently)
Is breaking my heart slowly
(is breaking my heart slowly)
Letting me down gently
(letting me down)
Is breaking my heart
Is breaking my heart

Letting me down gently
Is breaking my heart slowly
And this can't be better
So just get it over
Holding on desperately
In fear that you might leave me

Is breaking my heart slowly
(letting me down gently)
Is breaking my heart slowly
(is breaking my heart slowly)

Letting me down gently
(letting me down)
Is breaking my heart slowly
(breaking my heart slowly)

Oh, letting me down gently
(letting me down)
Is breaking my heart slowly
(is breaking my heart slowly)

Oh, letting me down gently
(letting me down)
Is breaking my heart
(is breaking my heart slowly)

Ooh, my heart
(breaking my heart)
Letting me down gently
(breaking my heart)

Ooh, letting me down gently
(letting me down)
Is breaking my heart
(breaking my heart slowly)

Letting me down gently
(letting me down gently)
Is breaking my heart
(breaking my heart slowly)

Letting me down gently
(letting me down)

Is breaking my heart

I've been in denial
I've been hiding like a kid
I try to list your imperfections
Shift the blame for what I did
I don't trust my excuses
They're just how I've learnt to live
Knowing I destroyed the shelter of our love

I can say I'm ready to learn
I've been chasing the answers
But I don't have enough to keep up with your pace

You're miles ahead of me
In knowledge and love
Miles ahead of me
In courage and faith
Miles ahead of me
In truth and intent
Miles ahead of me
In kindness and strength
You're miles ahead of me

It wasn't my intention
That I used your precious time
You opened up your life
But i was holding on to mine
Returned your honest certainty
With panic and retreat
The fear defeats me everytime we speak

But I'm ready to learn
I've been chasing the answers
Still I don't have enough to keep up with your pace

You're miles ahead of me
In knowledge and love
Miles ahead of me
In courage and faith
Miles ahead of me
In truth and intent
Miles ahead of me
In kindness and strength
You're miles ahead of me
In knowledge and love
Miles ahead of me
In courage and faith
Miles ahead of me
In truth and intent
Miles ahead of me
In kindness and strength

How could anyone be so obsessed with freedom
I somehow still expected you to stay

But I'm ready to learn
I've been chasing the answers
Still I don't have enough to keep up with your pace

You're miles ahead of me
You're miles ahead of me
You're miles ahead of me
You're miles ahead of me

(In knowledge and love)
Miles ahead of me
(In courage and faith)
Miles ahead of me
(In truth and intent)
Miles ahead of me
(In kindness and strength)

You're miles ahead of me
(In knowledge and love)
Miles ahead of me
(In courage and faith)
Miles ahead of me
(In truth and intent)
Miles ahead of me
(In kindness and strength)

Miles ahead of me
(In knowledge and love)
Miles ahead of me
(In courage and faith)
Miles ahead of me
(In truth and intent)
Miles ahead of me
(In kindness and strength)

You're miles ahead of me
(In knowledge and love)
Miles ahead of me
(In courage and faith)
Miles ahead of me
(In truth and intent)
Miles ahead of me
(In kindness and strength)

You're miles ahead of me

I was frightened
By your suffering
Fear is poison
Faith the remedy
But it didn't heal you
So how could it help me

I felt useless
You stared but couldn't see me
Growing distant
You were slowly burning out
But your cry for mercy
Was stuck inside me, oh

No enlightenment
No anaesthetic
No last remission
No miracle reprieve
I'm still a child beside you
How did we come to be
Inside this helpless moment
Oluwa shanu mi
Wa shanu mi

I bring my thoughts back to you
They are framed in broken light
Your hands full of compassion
The war that took your life
So hard to remove the pain from
The pure love you gave me

Can you tell me you're not hurting anymore
A waking dream, a sign to reassure
Cause your last words I heard clearly
You were crying for mercy

No enlightenment
No anaesthetic
No last remission
No miracle reprieve
I'm still a child beside you
How did we come to be
Inside this helpless moment
Oluwa shanu mi
Wa shanu mi

I have never, never walked alone
Though you're far ahead you have never left me behind
There are days I can't avoid the stones in the
Middle of the road
But I have never, never walked alone

I will never be afraid for any time
In so many ways you have anchored your arm to mine
There are days when I lean heavily upon you
To guide me home
But I have never, no never walked alone

In my search for human kindness
When it all gets out of pace
Your love's the one thing that gets me by
For I have never, no never walked alone

You have listened to a thousand calls in the dark
Before the dawn
I have never, never walked alone
We have worked it out together so I can say
Somehow I've known
That I have never, no never walked alone

For every time you cried
From all the frustration
You swallowed your pride
You wear the scars
Of the imprisoned arise ...
And you can testify

Blessed are we
We are free
Ominira, wa ominira
And all our hurt ... is now our history
All that hurt ... is now our history
All that hurt ... is now our history
Our history ... Ooooh!

Gather unto you
Your scattered resources
Have long been misused
Give again your heart
Don't let their corruption taint you
Your strength will multiply

Blessed are we
We are free
Ominira, wa ominira
And even our broken hearts
Will mend eventually
Ominira, wa
Blessed are we
Now we are free
Ominira, wa ominira
And all our hurt .. is now our history
All that hurt ... is now our history
All that hurt ... is now our history

... our history
... our history

Ooooh!

Cover me ...
Over with fallen leaves
I've gone to ground
I need you ...
Cause when I crack you cordon me ...
Off to the passers by so they can't steal ...
Their looks at the things I can't hide

Roll over I'm not done with you
You can stop me feeling blue

When holding my smile
Starts to wear me out child
Tell me I don't have to be so brave
When I let my shoulders fall
And sink softly in my seat
Shield me from my sadness and defeat
Ooh!

Cover me
My eyes are broken
They're just seeing grey
But you bring ...
The colours of the waking day
A lament begging you to save me
Cover me girl so they can't break me
Pick me up when it overtakes me

Roll over I'm not done with you
You can stop me feeling blue
Can you stop me feeling blue

When holding my smile
Starts to wear me out, child
Tell me I don't have to be so brave
When I let my shoulders fall
And sink softly in my seat
Shield me from my sadness and defeat
Yeah!

Cover me ...
Over with fallen leaves
A lament begging you to save me
Cover me girl so they can't break me
Pick me up when it overtakes me
