I steal a glance at you, and save it up for later
You see what I've come to? I really should know better But I can't help myself, help myself (can't help it) I'm lost in you I can't help myself, help myself (can't help it) I'm lost in you I lie awake at night to savour what it is I've stolen I'm hoping that you might know where this is going But I can't help myself, help myself (can't help it) I'm lost in you I can't help myself, help myself (can't help it) I'm lost in you And the funny part is I feel no guilt and no shame I guess where there's no action there's no blame And if I had an ounce of sense left I'd keep it that way too And I think of you, I think of me And remember what will be will be And I'm looking forward to the day Where I don't have to feel this way I can't help myself, help myself (can't help it) I'm lost in you I can't help myself, help myself (can't help it) I'm lost in you I can't help myself, I'm lost in you darling, I am lost I'm so lost, I can't help myself I can't help it I can't help it I can't help it I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't... |

Silly I know, I thought my undying belief
Could hold you up where you belong Among the coveted and the favoured And the shining strong Maybe these arms, although loyal through and through Faltered for a single moment Beneath the heavy burden of proof And the look at me, look at me But no-one was looking were they? I know why the caged bird sings (And it's not why you're thinking) I know why the caged bird sings Sing, sing, sing, sings I think we can be forgiven for knowing With every golden gift that's given Come the trials and tribulations For the learning I know why the caged bird sings (And it's not why you're thinking) I know why the caged bird sings Sing, sing, sing, sings Sings like an angel Sings for a life (but the living isn't easy) Sings for the freedom Sings I know why the caged bird sings (And it's not why you're thinking) I know why the caged bird sings Sing, sing, sing, sings I know why the caged bird sings (And it's not why you're thinking) I know why the caged bird sings Sing, sing, sing, sings |

I've been living on wishes, living on wishes all my life
And I wish I could make one To make everything in your world right I'm falling forward while you wait behind Lost for your reasons and missing your time And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you And I'm only an hour, not even an hour away But you're keeping your distance We're more than a million miles apart these days I'm falling forward while you wait behind Lost for your reasons and missing your time And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And suddenly I'm the villain of the piece You're lying awake, wondering how I sleep I'm falling forward while you wait behind Lost for your reasons and missing your time And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm Wishing for you (falling forward) And I, I, I'm, I, I, I'm |

Hey you, pushing the river
With the world there on your shoulders Don't you remember a single thing The good book told you? Hey you, treading the water With your head dipping out of the clouds Sinking down, down, down, down Waving to the old crowd And they send these things to try us And try us they do (oh oh) Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you I know that I'm a fine one To be talking this way I've been dragging the whole darn world Behind me all day No-one said it would be easy And they never warned how hard And I've been licking brand new wounds And tending old scars And they send these things to try us And try us they do (oh oh) Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you Over the endless troubles, over the trying times These are the words of wisdom from a restless mind Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you Don't push the river, don't push the river Don't push the river, let it carry you |

I had my hopes up high, higher than high
No matter how I try, sometimes they're falling And it's a slow decline for this hope of mine A little piece at a time, somehow it's falling And I look, and I wonder why (why) Disappointment written on a blue sky Thought I was home and dry, drier than dry No more tears to cry, somehow they're falling And I look, and I wonder why (why) Disappointment written on a blue sky How could this happen? How could you let this happen? You were disappointment on my blue sky I had my hopes up high, for you and I No matter how I try, somehow they're falling And it's a lonely time for me, this hope of mine A change of heart and mind, catch me I'm falling And I look, and I wonder why (why) Disappointment written on a blue sky And I look, and I wonder why (why) Disappointment written on a blue sky How could this happen? How could this happen? How could this happen? You took my blue sky and you wrote on it, disappointment |

We're all walking a fine line and I'm
Walking towards you, and I Hope that I'm right in thinking, I'll never walk alone I'm always running from something Now I'm running towards you It may not be the right thing, but it's what I want to do And in a different time, in a different place I could see myself with you And in a different time and a different place I believe you could see yourself too I'll be biding my time, and I'll be Watching my step, 'cos I don't want to Be starting something here that I might live to regret 'Cos I have learnt my lesson And I have learnt it well There are some things in this life best left for time to tell In a different time, in a different place I could see myself with you And in a different time and a different place I believe you could see yourself too In a different time, in a different place I believe I could safely lay my life down in your hands I believe that's what I'd do if you gave me half the chance Oh I believe, oh I believe, oh I believe In a different time, in a different place I could see myself with you And in a different time and a different place I believe you could see yourself there too In a different time, in a different place I could see myself with you And in a different time and a different place Oh I believe you could see yourself there too Different time, different place |

Threadbare, frayed around the edges
Down where all I'm getting is you don't care And hoping that I'm wrong I am crushed by your indifference, know I must try To stop wishing if only I Could undo what I've done If I knew then what I know now I would have saved my words somehow Headed underground, crushed without a sound Threadbare Tired from the inside out I'm kind of worn down by the doubt And time will tell how it should be If I knew then what I know now I would have saved my words somehow Headed underground, crushed without a sound Threadbare There's something I'm missing You're not giving me I talk and you listen But will you ever see? If I knew then what I know now I would have saved my words somehow Headed underground, crushed without a sound Threadbare Headed underground, crushed without a sound Threadbare I am tired Something missing you're not giving me Something missing you're not giving me Something missing you're not giving me Something missing you're not giving me Love's a funny thing Love's a funny thing Love's a funny thing Love's a funny thing |

I watch the days and weeks and years roll by
I long since gave up trying to count them on my side Along with all that I hereby confess I'm learning how to live on love and forgiveness Forgive me if I stop and rest awhile I've walked a long and testing mighty million miles Here in this little church within a church I'm learning how to live on love and forgiveness Love, carry me love, carry me love, carry me love Carry me love and forgiveness I'm living on love and forgiveness I've kissed goodbye to all those little hurts I sent them up in one big fire I made of words And in my dealings and in my defence I'm learning how to live on love and forgiveness Love, carry me love, carry me love, carry me love Carry me love and forgiveness I'm living on love and forgiveness It could be said I was choking on my daily bread I was caught up in a time that seemed endless Oh carry me love and forgiveness I'm living on love and forgiveness I'm living on love and forgiveness I'm living on love and forgiveness I'm Living on love and forgiveness |

The honeymoon is over
I look to see what's left A pocketful of good reasons A shot at happiness That old devil is calling Alarm bell light is on Standby in my busy head In case I might be wrong And I'm here, I'm here, I'm here aren't I? I'm here, I'm here, I'm here aren't I? I pinch myself I'm dreaming Too good to be true That I'm the girl with everything And everything to lose And I'm here, I'm here, I'm here aren't I? I'm here, I'm here, I'm here aren't I? I'm looking out for something I might have missed Who knows what it is? The honeymoon, the honeymoon The honeymoon is over I heed the voice of reason Like you're supposed to do And looking down on everything I still came back to you And I'm here, I'm here, I'm here aren't I? I'm here, I'm here, I'm here aren't I? |

As long as we have hope, prayer, and a little bit of time to
Get us there, hope, prayer and time We are ordinary people in extraordinary times And we sometimes burn our bridges And we sometimes cut our lines And the lonely river keeps rolling on As long as we have hope, prayer, and a little bit of time to Get us there, hope, prayer and time In the darkness of our ages, till the better days return There are those who write the pages There are those who let them burn And the lonely river keeps rolling on Just as long as we have hope, prayer, and a little bit of time to Get us there, hope, prayer and time By the lonely river where the bridges burn We shall return As long as we have hope, prayer, and a little bit of time to Get us there, hope, prayer and time Hope, prayer, and a little bit of time to get us there, Hope, prayer and time |

These tired lips are sealed
Although this angry mouth is filled With words to fracture an unknowing heart Enough to tear your very world apart Turning my knowing look away Fumbling for something to say God only knows I've done things I regret So many I'm trying hard to forget So if you're wondering You can be Safe in the knowledge That your secret's safe with me Can't help wondering What you'd do If you found out she'd done the same to you There's no logic, there's no gain There's no way you can explain Not that I want or expect you to We're all the prisoners of the things we do So if you're wondering You can be Safe in the knowledge That your secret's safe with me Can't help wondering What you'd do If you found out she'd done the same to you Safe in the knowledge, safe Safe in the knowledge, safe So if you're wondering You can be Safe in the knowledge That your secret's safe with me Can't help wondering What you'd do If you found out she'd done the same to you |
