Even though I'll never need her
Even though she's only giving me pain I'll be on my knees to feed her Spend a day to make her smile again Even though I'll never need her Even though she's only giving me pain As the world is soft around her Leaving me with nothing to disdain Even though I'm not her minder Even though she doesn't want me around I am on my feet to find her To make sure that she is safe and sound Even though I'm not her minder Even though she doesn't want me around I am on my feet to find her To make sure that she is safe from harm The sun sets on the war The day breaks and everything is new The sun sets on the war The day breaks and everything is new Everything is new Everything is new Everything is new The sun sets on the war The day breaks and everything is new |

In the sky the birds are pulling rain
In your life the curse has got a name Makes you lie awake all through the night That's why. She's intoxicated by herself Everyday she's seen with someone else And every night she kisses someone new Never you. You're waiting in the shadows for a chance 'Cause you believe at heart that if you can Show to her what love is all about She'll change. She'll talk to you with no one else around But only if you're able to entertain her The moment conversation stops she's gone Again. she's gone You believe at heart that if you can She'll change At heart that if you can But~ The moment conversation stops she's gone Again. |

Things seem so much better when
They're not part of your close surroundings Like words in a letter sent Amplified by the distance Possibilities and sweeter dreams Sights and sounds calling form far away Calling from far away I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you singing softly to me I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I didn't see the brave girl so near me I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you sing softly to me I wanted a mystery that couldn't be solved I wanted a puzzle with pieces missing I wanted a story that couldn't be told Only the fishing part of fishing I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you singing softly to me I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I didn't see the brave girl so near me I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you sing softly to me And now I find It was you all the time. I'm in love again- It's too late now... |

You called me after midnight,
must have been three years since we last spoke. I slowly tried to bring back, the image of your face from the memories so old. I tried so hard to follow, but didn't catch the half of what had gone wrong, said I don't know what I can save you from. I asked you to come over, and within half an hour, you were at my door. I had never really known you, but I realized that the one you were before, had changed into somebody for whom I wouldn't mind to put the kettle on. Still I don't know what I can save you from. |

Using the Guardian as a shield
To cover my thighs against the rain I do not mind about my hair Your jacket may be waterproof But I know the moment you get home You're gonna get your trousers changed Failure is always the best way to learn Retracing your steps until you know Have no fear your wounds will heal I wish I could travel overground To where all you hear is water sounds Lush as the wind upon a tree I wish I could travel overground To where all you hear is water sounds To capture and keep inside of me Failure is always the best way to learn Retracing your steps until you know Have no fear your wounds will heal Failure is always the best way to learn Retracing your steps until you know Have no fear your wounds will heal |

Your eyes are cold
I know you'll tell me all Not to fall I lean against the wall I'm on the floor Not listening anymore I should have known The things to which you're prone (You cross your arms And tell no lies A thousand thoughts run Through my mind A thousand words that I don't need I never thought you could do this) I should have known The things to which you're prone (You cross your arms And tell no lies A thousand thoughts run Through my mind A thousand words that I don't need I never thought you could do this) Your eyes are cold I know you'll tell me all Not to fall I lean against the wall |

Little kids playing in the park downtown
Someone's dad is watching From the side of the ground I'm following my shadow so I cross the street Car passing stereo I like the beat Open up the door Turning on the fan Dropping down the keys that I held in my hand And then start waiting for her steps To be heard in the staircase Enter the room and let down her bag Asking me all kinds of trivial questions Pretending an everyday life we don't have Pretending an everyday life we don't have Pretending an everyday life we don't have Little kids playing in the park downtown Soon they'll be all gone as the sun goes down Little kids playing in the park downtown Soon they'll be all gone as the sun goes down And rises over, Brooklyn Bridge tomorrow Hours later I will follow Wake up to a life that's hollow without love Without love... Without love... |

From my seat I see the fields move by
Coulours strong - it's been a long, long time It's the first time I see summer on the Westhill I lean back and let my eyes just go Floating now where they want to float They seem to take to the horizon Now I know there is a world beyond The small place I was coming from I feel at home here in the middle of nowhere I will never know the names Of these places that I travel through to reach the coastline I've been told I will be there in time Please oceancloud Let there be no storm on the crossing below Please oceancloud Let there be no storm on the crossing below Please oceancloud Let there be no storm on the crossing below Please oceancloud Let there be no storm on the crossing below |

I didn't know you were there
until you said "hello." You had been watching me for I don't know how long. I hit my head against the lamp, as by surprise I stood up. "Don't be afraid," you said, "it's only me- The door wasn't locked." The voice I'd heard in the hall was hard to recognise. But now we know he's onboard, wearing our disguise. If only you and I could trust each other through this, then together we could work out who the enemy is. |
