You know how it feels
to roll away like a stone
And sing like a dove
thats found its way home

The filth on the ground
or washed up on the shore
We try where theyve failed
but they'll reap what they sow

And its the passion we feel
as we run through life
I hope a time will come
when they realise what theyve done

The lone CEO, chosen for his worth
To build cash-tiled walls
above the smoke-stacked sky


But what if you never drew your breath
on a warm sun-filled day
or caught all your dreams, in a season of
tranquillity, tranquillity, tranquillity...

Theyre slowly destroying what we love
shakin it, breakin it slowly

Save me from the judgement of a fool, save me from dressing down the rich man
Save me from the judge's writing tool, releasing now

An aptitude for anything at all, no need for time to ponder on the maybes
Now happiness will one day really fall, on you like rays of gold

Won't you rain on me now
Won't you rain on me now

Do your shoes fit you as they did before,
are you walking steady since you took the fall
I know it must be hard to be strong,


and still move on

I look inside your child-like eyes,
believing thoughts that tear you up inside
I know you're out there trying not to hide
so let it go, & flow down

Won't you rain on me, won't you pray with me
Won't you cradle me, would you label me
won't you rain...

she always said it was difficult to be jealous
of something that wasn't really there, I thought I knew love
but I was simply trying to convince myself of it
trying to justify and prove myself

finding your own love of yourself
and sharing it with another love, your truth sears through me like a giddy rush
but like a too sharp knife as well It's hurting me
It's not so scary, it is liberating, it is truth

PRE-CHORUS
I see your truth and you see mine, we shock ourselves with the imagery
only cause I hold up the mirror and I show you me and you show me yourself

CHORUS
I think It's called truth, I know that It's right
in all It's splendid beauty and vivid gain
I think It's called truth, I think it deserves
to bring beautiful glory with necessary pain

you do not make me feel complete
just part of another whole that halved is another wonderful self
joined in a beautiful mystery journey
a snake finding legs and a horse learning to sit a while

making mistakes along the way and hurting another
is par for the course,
if you are following your own, which ofcourse you need to do
as broken wings are mended and we watch us fly

PRE-CHORUS
I see your truth and you see mine, we shock ourselves with the imagery
only cause I hold up the mirror and you show me he and I show you myself

CHORUS X 2

Urban enzyme digest slowly
eating crust and crouton wholly
Cut up news with froth and frolic
hero doomed and alcoholic
not a picture prized or pretty
burning engines in the city
not a word now could be tainted
when ivory teeth come golden plated

running frowning waving madly
came from nothing returning gladly
he said strip, strip, shout it out
you've done me over, now let me out
the bastard son of.... the bastard son of you know who.

flashes lighten grime and gravy
instant when it's bright and maybe
happiness will someday bite
from eating starbeams in the night
crunch it chew it spit it out
strip the flesh and suck it out
between the teeth of envy plain
come bits of cosmos fire and rain

Will you ever know how it feels
no mother or father to depend upon
will you ever know how it feels
to be alone in this world - all alone

an old lady helps me as I'm crossing the road
she sees the direction and the weight of my load
she points to a man taking peace to the poor
and a record is broken by the arm of the law

and you and I as we skate, pitch or ride
we seek our adventures in the places we hide
the pendulum dances, opinion poles swing
not to mention the meaning of contemporary things

PRE-CHORUS
we're chasing the feeling that our money can't buy
our pocket books empty but we're ready to try

CHORUS
on strange days everything is stranger
and don't I know nothing comes without danger
on strange days everything is stranger
don't I know nothing comes without danger

drowning not waving in a film title end
our mothers and fathers have postcards to send
we calculate the loss and unfortunate things
and the healthy economy that good warfare brings

PRE-CHORUS
we're chasing the feeling that our money can't buy
our pocket books empty but we're ready to try

CHORUS
on strange days everything is stranger
and don't I know nothing comes without danger
on strange days everything is stranger
don't I know nothing comes without danger

Floating in calm waves silence and no shame
Send me to the ether world
Wash it down with salt

Time-honoured deals and virtues unspoken
The nat-ure of the beast
You take whats yours and dont ask why
Rise above the curfew, even if it hurts you

Better softly keep the focus true the dream is on
The smiling tides of chemical dreams
wont get you where you want to be
wont get you where you want to be

Salient pearls of wisdom if taken right
Married with good intention, you'll learn to fly

Better softly keep the focus true the dream is on
The smiling tides of chemical dreams
wont get you where you want to be
wont get you where you want to be

A weapon of fire, emotions mistrust
And they're still lying, they won't be to pushed
Call me to freedom, too much to bear
Take me to reason, and I'll fly from there

But if you run, and hide, you'll lose my soul
When it's time to cross the tide,
I'll be lost in the flow
when the truth won't happen
please don't try to run

If life was a season, the leaves turned to grey
Call in a freebird, who may light the way
These words were spoken, to tempt you from fire
A hope for emotion, which came to desire


But if you run, and hide, you'll lose my soul
When it's time to cross the tide,
I'll be lost in the flow
when the truth won't happen
Please don't try to run

Or the world we're shaping
Will fall from the sky
I'll take your happy fall
And linger as time goes on

Solitary motion, will lead to despair
Fortunes in bleeding, will bring souls to bear
But if it's hoping, I'm hoping too much
It's not the solution, to live on mistrust

But if you run, and hide, you'll lose my soul
When it's time to cross the tide,
I'll be lost in the flow
When the truth won't happen
Please don't try to run
....When you're lost please don't try to run
Please don't try to run....

I see love and beauty all around,
I also see the sadness that's embedded in your frown,
I wonder why you choose not to talk to those around,
I sense a fear of lifting heavy feet,
higher than you want to,
I just want to believe your truth.

You stand there but you do not cast a shadow,
you walk away with every word you choose not to say.
I suppose that moving on paints a new colour for each day,
I don't like to see dreams put on the shelf,
to deal with on that one day,
I just want to be happy for you.

'Coz I only have one second, this minute today.
I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now,
and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud
and say I love I like and breathe in now.
and say I love I live and breathe in now.

I move on holding on to what I learn,
it's time to move on from the notion
that the whole world's against me
break free of shackles that formed young,
time free in now,
and now I know it's not all up to me,
I can count on another
so move on lighter and be free.

'Coz I only have one second, this minute today.
I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now,
and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud,
and say I love I like and breathe in now.
and say I love I live and breathe in now.

I believe in for today I just want to know that you're okay
cause I believe in breathing just for today
I just want to know that you're okay

'Coz I only have one second, this minute today
I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now
and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud
and say I love I like and breathe in now
and say I love I live and breathe in now
and say I love I live and breathe in now

It's four past the shaking hands
and the house is shouting
and the wide ocean's smile
is two mountains away

If the burning laughter refracts out the window
and too many threads are pulled
and leaves a mark on your night-face
as red as Shanghai in Autumn Moon

If the frozen-flat birds can thaw
to soar north against the wind
and stare across this great wide
land with faith and feather
You'll know I'll be there - my love

If I'm drowning serenely
and the browning and the torn
picture of your unshakeable smile
breathes life into my eyes
I'll always be seeing you - my love

When the brush is out of paint
and we stroke the gaps full
of silence and restraint
and the canvas starts to peel
that's when, thats when, I'll take your hand

I can't help waiting deliberating,
depths of age pale away
and I am trying to rediscover
the wide-eyed beauty of the first glance

and you can take what's mine,
add to the weight of time
with cold eyes and a furrowed brow
and you can take what's mine,
turn back the hands of time
but for young, time is the sun

from where does fear spawn,
from the older ingrained scorn
does it mean that my mind won't cry
and I can't believe that you're happy to bleed
from your cold eyes

each year I peel back my skin
and fleshy pink appears
yet a harder layer grows,
protect uncertainty
young grow fear to love,
resist my resistance
reluctance to return a smile

from where does fear spawn
from the older ingrained scorn
does it mean that my mind won't cry
and I can't believe that you're happy
to bleed from your cold eyes

> So, here I go again, I want to say no for the upteenth time
the reins, they're slipping out of my reach
I'm trying to enjoy this ride, if just a little while
I know I'm such a lucky girl, but too much I try
I want to stop a while, step out of the frame
And see with a different lens what I can't clearly see
CHORUS: And I'm falling inside, I'm wanting to escape from this mess I'm in
I'm wanting to, I'm falling inside, falling inside
What we never thought has come
The others seem to play too big a part
The sweeteners soon sour and I crave to taste
The fresh new air and breathe again, alone again
CHORUS: And I'm falling inside, I'm wanting to escape this mess I'm in
I'm wanting to, I'm falling inside, falling inside
BRIDGE: So here I go, I try to explain
Just find myself in circles again
So here we go, we try to explain
Just find ourselves in circles again
So, here I go again, even lucky girl get the blues
But I'm loving this ride when I see full view
And we're all here again, alone again
CHORUS: And I'm falling inside, I'm wanting to escape this mess I'm in
I'm wanting to, I'm falling inside, falling inside

> I wonder how long I can sustain this mystery
I wonder how we thought we'd get here without strife
I try to recall the beauty that brought us here
And I cling to that, I cling to that, I cling to that for my life
They say they understand the turmoil that unsettles you
And I say you just fulfill your end of the deal and I'll fulfill mine
Once we reveal ourselves we're so quick, so quick to analyse
I just want you to be free and enjoy this ride
So go on I'll tell you it's alright
Go on, please tell me you're fine
Don't ever let them get you down
'cause everything that really, really matters
is still real
I'd love to see you shine with every possible radiance
And ignore any thoughts that weren't planted by good
And let intention motivate and stimulate, that is all
And let the cloud that hangs above drift off into the sunset night
So go on I'll tell you it's alright
Go on, please tell me you're fine
Don't ever let them get you down
'cause everything that really, really matters
is still real

And so you say just the words,
that you wanted us to hear
Doctored prose for the world,
while you help us breed our fears
But you're not winning, some are grinning,
realising that it's just a lesson,
Every empire had had its day,
and in the end someone has always paid

We are all one,
despite governments
And we are strong,
our time is gonna come

How can you even dare
to look your brother in the eye?
You're part of it all,
that we choose not to let into our hearts
Old man evil, down comes your steeple
and your friends are nowhere to be found
Who will help you,
when you falter and the truth comes crashing all around you?

We are all one,
despite governments
And we are strong,
our time is gonna come

Until a child
can grow up without mines or bombs
Until the smallest standard
is set for all of us
Until the fear patrol
has lost all that it owns
Until the corporate sons
see that it's time to overturn

We are all One,
despite governments
And we are strong,
our time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come..

> I want to scream sometimes, louder than passing traffic
Yet only I can hear, my silent noise
Everyday consumes me, each step I'm falling in
Imprisoned in my own choice
The phone's ringing every minute
PRE-CHORUS: So I try to take time, just to breathe for a minute
To find a silent breath I can call my own
So I try to give time one more quiet second
To find a silent breath I can call my own
CHORUS: And I know I choose to be, yet I feel I'm a captive of it
I make love to it, but I hate it
And I want to, but I'm scared of running away
To make love or to hate is all in my own hands
I suppose you always feel safe when you feel control
Yet under all I know, I'm never really in control
Time's my most intimate love, peace is the sister I dont have
Silent is pure sanctity, how I crave for you
PRE-CHORUS: So I try to take time, just to breathe for a minute
To find a silent breath I can call my own
So I try to give time one more quiet second
To find a silent breath I can call my own
CHORUS: And I know I choose to be, yet I feel I'm a captive of it
I make love to it, but I hate it
And I know I choose to be, yet I feel I'm a captive of you
And I make love to you, but I hate you
And I want to, but I'm scared of running away
To make love or to hate is all in my own hands
OUTRO: Yet the unknown breeds fear, my mother's breast seems miles away
You can be happy, you can be happy
You can be happy to play the game until your deck runs out

I ride the time, it unfolds a new day,
another time, this world would fade away
To find true love, is like no other joy,
our choice is here

Be happy for today, be happy for today

The passage won, could maim a loser's fate,
the bombs will run, I wish love could have its day
A heart that soars, above the worldly haze,
has found the cure

Be happy for today, be happy for today
Be happy for today, be happy for today

Soldier of fortune, runs away,
to take up arms against his brother
When does this ever stop?
We're still in the playground
except the toys are hurting us

You're waiting for it now
You're waiting for it now
Here it comes

So far to go, but we keep pushing on
So far to go, but we keep moving on
So far, keep moving on...

So can I tell you a little bit about myself
My armour's worn too thin
Don't want to think
I gotta stop for a while

So can she tell him a little bit about herself
Her patience's wearing out but she want him to realise

CHORUS: But I fall so hard it makes me cry out..

So, can he tell her a little bit about himself
He doesn't want to hurt, he wants to start again and be ok

So they tell me a little about themselves
A love that lasts a life, the joy she brings him at the end of the day

CHORUS: But I fall so hard it makes me cry out

> ©2003 T.Noonan
On silent summer evenings,
a certain sunlight in her eyes
I walk through the pavement of life again
I've got a warm feeling
I can't escape
It could last forever
into our own world
where everyone sleeps
and silence is deeper than water
I love her like no other
Oh I, I never can tell
just how much I need to recite
I never can tell, just how hard it is to write down
But I'll pray every day for a glimpse of your fortunate smile
And I'll pray every day for a glimpse of your fortunate smile
A timeless place, I hope to reside
A beautiful life, is here for a time
I never felt like this
I would call upon the heavens
for your innocent words
your beautiful ways, your heavenly presence
Oh I, I never can tell
just how much I need to recite
I never can tell, just how hard it is to write down
But I'll pray every day for a glimpse of your fortunate smile
And I'll pray every day for a glimpse of your fortunate smile
And now and then, we'll go down to the park
You never know what you might find there after dark
'Cause heaven, is right there in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
But I'll pray every day for a glimpse of your fortunate smile
And I'll pray every day for a glimpse of your fortunate smile
Heaven is right there in your eyes (repeat to end)

Freedom flight fancy,
Fresh home, love feeling
escape, truth, happiness
dreaming and knowing

I've got to keep the flow
I'm ready to know, about magnolia
Focus on the garbage art
News of a shock tremor
long may be due

Don't let them try and change you
'Cause they only want to own you
Don't let them try and change you
For you are beautiful

Ageless beauty
I know your feeling
Love is, this is our time
To break through, this madness

Absolutely blown away
What do we have to say?
What are we looking for?
How do we escape the
indescribable truth that is so real?
Stranger than fiction

Don't let them try and change you
'Cause they'll only want to own you
Don't let them try and change you
For you are beautiful

I hope you find, everything you're looking for
I hope you find, happiness outside your door
And everytime, that you fall down on your knees
Is just a part of everything you need to see

Don't let them try and change you
'Cause they only want to own you
Don't let them try and change you
For you are beautiful

Scrounging through the shit to find a place to call home
To settle in, set up shop, pull out your wares and play
To sing a song to you, for you and for me
I need to remember what I gain and why I'm here
The sign says gents but I don't see none here
The sign says ladies but I'm a lady feeling alone
Everything I need to survive is feeling threatened

I don't want you to make me jaded
I don't want to give you the power to make me hot and cold

I do it because I want to have my say, give it up for you
But you chose to throw it back at my face with your distortions
I feel sorry for you, but you feel sorry for me
Seeing that power sometimes lies in the hands of the weakest, the lowest kind
The power to make me scream when I only want to whisper
The power to make me punch when I only want to caress you

[Chorus]
I don't want you to make me jaded
I don't want to give you the power to make me raise my voice
I don't want you to make me jaded
I don't want to give you the pleasure of seeing me cry
I just want to find a beautiful face
And remember why I am standing here
I just want to be at that beautiful place
And remember why we're standing here

I speak what I feel and then it's judged by you
But when I judge you, you get pissed off
I'm no different to you
I do have the time to listen, I have the time to care
When I've had my say I'm happy to listen to yours
Just grant me the time to let you have your monies worth
I'm so jumpy, I'm on edge, I'm ready to bite at your chance

[Chorus]

And remember why we're standing here

Waking to the silence of this quality
The one the angels decided to hand down
For the beauty of the deeds that are forgiven
I surrender and I lay me down

For Michael and Gabriel who hold me
And the wings that make the silence of that sound

[PRE-CHORUS:] And for the tender touch that comes when I stop to listen

[CHORUS:]
I surrender, I lay me down
For the letting go of all I hold so tightly
Releasing clouds and silver linings of my mind
Finding ways to see all of my horizons

For mothers and fathers who may guide
For the courage to breathe the words of fire and love
And looking out with freedom to abandon

[PRE-CHORUS:] And for the tender touch that comes when I stop to listen
[CHORUS:]
I surrender, I lay me down
Breathing with the silence of this quality
The grace the angels decided to hand down
For the beauty of the deeds that are forgiven
I surrender and I lay me down

[CHORUS:]
I surrender, I lay me down
I surrender, I lay me down

>
When I think back to all the times
that we've been through up to now
There are so many things
I wish that I could change
Guilt and fear and anger
all tied up in stupid chains
I want to crush up all that hurt
and see you smile again
Growing with love,
finding the right way to feel
Can you forgive
the foolish ways I've been?
I want to learn from the past
but I need to move on
and recapture the beauty
that brought us here
When we started on this road,
we never thought of what might be
How the love we shared so free
was brought into question
I'm sorry for the times
I hurt you and made you cry
but here we are, still standing here
getting stronger yet this time
Growing with love,
finding the right way to feel
Can you forgive
the foolish ways I've been?
I want to learn from the past
but I need to move on
and recapture the beauty
that brought us here
Say it out loud,
we're breaking down the walls of our fears
And after all is said and done
We have shared more than most
ever get the time,
time to spend with their loved ones
We have grown much wiser,
now the storm is over.
I never thought it would happen
I never thought this could happen
I never thought...
Growing with love,
finding the right way to feel
Can you forgive
the foolish ways I've been?
I want to learn from the past
but I need to move on
and recapture the beauty
that brought us here

Isn't it funny how you never really screamed at my face,
but your anger so unspoken and unchannelled
permeates my essence to the point where I,
Don't want to see you hear you, be anywhere near you,
you probably think I'm threatened by you
but your illusionary power doesn't threaten me,
Actually I think it's kind of funny that you create an illusion that is a mirror,
I don't appreciate you and I know that that surprises you
I suppose you see that those who follow their heart always win,
those with integrity have won the match before it's begun

So rather than being kicked around, I'm going to kick you to the curb
So rather than being pushed around, I'm going to push you away first
So rather than trying to protect you, I'm going to cover my bases first
So rather than trying to open my heart, I'm going to lock it with a key
So that only the special ones, so that only the special ones, can ever get through to me

Some can see beyond the barrier of threshold whereas others can't see beyond their sculptured mould,
you could offer me nothing, you could offer me nothing that I need
Do you think I'm asking too much?
A kind of respect and trust that shouldn't even be questioned,
how can I open my heart with dishonesty sitting next to me?
I've honoured your honour to the point of embarrassment,
but innocence in the hands of the guilt-free is kicked to, is kicked to the curb
I was ashamed of my innocence,
I was ashamed of my innocence but now with clarity I see that your bullshit is just not worthy of me

So rather than being kicked around, I'm going to kick you to the curb
So rather than being pushed around, I'm going to push you away first
So rather than trying to protect you, I'm going to cover my bases first
So rather than trying to open my heart, I'm going to lock it with a key
So that only the special ones, so that only the special ones, can ever get through to me

I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.

This is not worthy of me
and now with clarity I see
that I can walk away,
I can walk away

I can't help waiting deliberating,
depths of age pale away
and I am trying to rediscover
the wide-eyed beauty of the first glance

and you can take what's mine,
add to the weight of time
with cold eyes and a furrowed brow
and you can take what's mine,
turn back the hands of time
but for young, time is the sun

from where does fear spawn,
from the older ingrained scorn
does it mean that my mind won't cry
and I can't believe that you're happy to bleed
from your cold eyes

each year I peel back my skin
and fleshy pink appears
yet a harder layer grows,
protect uncertainty
young grow fear to love,
resist my resistance
reluctance to return a smile

from where does fear spawn
from the older ingrained scorn
does it mean that my mind won't cry
and I can't believe that you're happy
to bleed from your cold eyes

You know how it feels
to roll away like a stone
And sing like a dove
thats found its way home

The filth on the ground
or washed up on the shore
We try where theyve failed
but they'll reap what they sow

And its the passion we feel
as we run through life
I hope a time will come
when they realise what theyve done

The lone CEO, chosen for his worth
To build cash-tiled walls
above the smoke-stacked sky


But what if you never drew your breath
on a warm sun-filled day
or caught all your dreams, in a season of
tranquillity, tranquillity, tranquillity...

Theyre slowly destroying what we love
shakin it, breakin it slowly

I see love and beauty all around,
I also see the sadness that's embedded in your frown,
I wonder why you choose not to talk to those around,
I sense a fear of lifting heavy feet,
higher than you want to,
I just want to believe your truth.

You stand there but you do not cast a shadow,
you walk away with every word you choose not to say.
I suppose that moving on paints a new colour for each day,
I don't like to see dreams put on the shelf,
to deal with on that one day,
I just want to be happy for you.

'Coz I only have one second, this minute today.

I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now
and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud
and say I love I like and breathe in now
and say I love I live and breathe in now
and say I love I live and breathe in now

Polyserena, I'm starving to feed you,
I'll be back from what I've been to
Not sad, not crying,
In the moments of your hiding,
you'd swear that I was screaming

Polyserena, since your leaving,
lit rooms are darkly silent
Right now I am standing right here
between whispers of your violence
You'd swear that I'm believing

Chorus
Poly, you decadent deceiver,
In the mirror you don't reflect
but I feel your hot breath
In the coals of the fires of all that's left


Polyserena, it's never over
it's glimmering in the windows,
of the corridors of gold
Not walking backwards anymore
For Serena you know all

Chorus
Colours flood into patterns
Churn and twist around, what matters.
Where's a love to believe, to bleed, to drink to?
Through your brindled smile,
Poly, I still trust you.

Polyserena, I'm starving to feed you....

Release - George

work through, joy through, work the goddess,
of religion, dogma and guilt.
poor me start, joyful destiny, respite, guilt free passion,
grant fear of freedom, sympathy,
god and myself, god and myself,
to another place from respect, joyful girl, thankyou

and I'm ready to release on another day,
I'm ready to respect the day today
I'm ready to respect myself today,
I'm ready to release

self-image, confidence, troubled,
comfortable, blame, touching, partake
with grace, jealousy, wisdom,
unabashed joy and me you yum
power, transference to equality, letting go, joy again,
loving do unto others as to yourself, thank you.

and I'm ready to release on another day,
I'm ready to respect the day today
I'm ready to respect myself today,
I'm ready to release on another day
I'm ready to release myself today,
I'm ready to release

male female innocent carefree,
fate honour and wrong
success caressing a self love,
do to yourself as to others
comfortable held release,
comfortable held release,
comfortable held release,
comfortable held release.

and I'm ready to release on another day,
I'm ready to respect the day today
I'm ready to respect myself today,
I'm ready to release on another day.
and I'm ready to release on another day,
I'm ready to respect the day today
I'm ready to respect myself today,
I'm ready to release

grant fear of freedom, sympathy,
god and myself, god and myself,
to another place from respect, joyful girl, thankyou

Isn't it funny how you never really screamed at my face,
but your anger so unspoken and unchannelled
permeates my essence to the point where I,
Don't want to see you hear you, be anywhere near you,
you probably think I'm threatened by you
but your illusionary power doesn't threaten me,
Actually I think it's kind of funny that you create an illusion that is a mirror,
I don't appreciate you and I know that that surprises you
I suppose you see that those who follow their heart always win,
those with integrity have won the match before it's begun

So rather than being kicked around, I'm going to kick you to the curb
So rather than being pushed around, I'm going to push you away first
So rather than trying to protect you, I'm going to cover my bases first
So rather than trying to open my heart, I'm going to lock it with a key
So that only the special ones, so that only the special ones, can ever get through to me

Some can see beyond the barrier of threshold whereas others can't see beyond their sculptured mould,
you could offer me nothing, you could offer me nothing that I need
Do you think I'm asking too much?
A kind of respect and trust that shouldn't even be questioned,
how can I open my heart with dishonesty sitting next to me?
I've honoured your honour to the point of embarrassment,
but innocence in the hands of the guilt-free is kicked to, is kicked to the curb
I was ashamed of my innocence,
I was ashamed of my innocence but now with clarity I see that your bullshit is just not worthy of me

So rather than being kicked around, I'm going to kick you to the curb
So rather than being pushed around, I'm going to push you away first
So rather than trying to protect you, I'm going to cover my bases first
So rather than trying to open my heart, I'm going to lock it with a key
So that only the special ones, so that only the special ones, can ever get through to me

I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.

This is not worthy of me
and now with clarity I see
that I can walk away,
I can walk away

It's four past the shaking hands
and the house is shouting
and the wide ocean's smile
is two mountains away

If the burning laughter refracts out the window
and too many threads are pulled
and leaves a mark on your night-face
as red as Shanghai in Autumn Moon

If the frozen-flat birds can thaw
to soar north against the wind
and stare across this great wide
land with faith and feather
You'll know I'll be there - my love

If I'm drowning serenely
and the browning and the torn
picture of your unshakeable smile
breathes life into my eyes
I'll always be seeing you - my love

When the brush is out of paint
and we stroke the gaps full
of silence and restraint
and the canvas starts to peel
that's when, thats when, I'll take your hand

(Verse 1:)

I wanna take you home
To my place
Share my dreams and my fantasies
I can't wait
I wanna show you things
That you have never seen before
Girl I hear you crying
Crying out for more

(Chorus:)
Talk to me, talk to me
Am I doing this right?
Talk to me, talk to me
Are you feelin alright?
I've been waiting for this my whole life
And here you are tonight
I've been waiting for this my whole life
And I can see it in your eyes
Are you ready to stay up all night?
To see the morning light?
I've been waiting
And waiting
And waiting
My whole life...

(Verse 2:)

So now here we are
Dim the lights down low
Oh we can go fast
Or should I go slow?
I wanna kiss your lips
Is that okay?
I'm that guy, I'm that guy baby
You'll be callin' out my name
Sing it to me now



(Chorus:)

Talk to me, talk to me
Am I doing this right?
Talk to me, talk to me
Are u feelin alright? (Sing It)
I've been waiting for this my whole life
And here you are tonight (Here You Are Tonight)
I've been waiting for this my whole life
And I can see it in your eyes
Are you ready to stay up all night?
To see the morning light?
I've been waiting

And waiting
And waiting
My whole life...

(Bridge:)
I ..wanna cater to you
No... Nothin I wouldn't do
I tried to find words to say
I've never felt love in this way...
This way
I've been ready for this my whole life
Here you are tonight
(Here You Are Tonight)

I've been ready for this my whole life
And I can see it in your eyes (Girl Im Wait...Girl Im Wait...Girl Im Waiting...)
Girl are you ready to stay up all night
To see the morning light

I've been waiting
And waiting...
And waiting

My whole life...
Will you be waiting...
my whole life...
