I dream about stars here
I dream about bringing you a parade We read foreign papers Pretend we're hiding from an air raid But I can't know Why I always stutter And she doesn't care Breathe the same air I don't have a hope in hell Doesn't see We could agree This could be so blissful And I will do magic Houdini's rabbit lives here under my sleeve I'd saw myself in half There'd be two of us always ready to please But I can't know Why I always stutter And she doesn't care Breathe the same air I don't have a hope in hell Doesn't see We could agree This could be so blissful This could be so blissful This could be so blissful This could be so blissful This could be so blissful This could be so blissful now And she Doesn't care, Breathe the same air I don't have a hope in hell Doesn't see We could agree This could be so, be so, be so, be so She doesn't care Breathe the same air I don't have a hope in hell Doesn't see We could agree This could be so good |

She is dreaming at work today
That she's from Paris Walks with a bright bouquet And her fake accent co-workers laugh She forgives her customers All on their behalf They don't know What she could see The kids don't go To aisle three She sees Saints who say she is the only one She can dream anything under the sun And no one ever could take away This All Saints' Day She learns French from Cassettes at night Landlady saves her Labels from her French whites Small Eiffel Tower Glued to her cash She won't take lunch breaks She's gone within a flash They don't know What she could see The kids don't go To aisle three She sees Saints who say she is the only one She can dream anything under the sun And no one ever could take away This All Saints' Day No one knows What she could see The kids don't go To aisle three She sees Saints who say she is the only one She can dream anything under the sun And no one ever could take away And no one ever could take away This All Saints' Day She is dreaming in French today |

If I were him,
I'd know your birthday. Just what to get, The colors you wear. We'd buy old bikes, We'd ride on Sundays. You'd review the books I sent. And I know, It takes 22 steps, From the walk to your door, It takes 22 steps, Because I've tried it before. And one day I'll knock, But just not yet. If I were him, I'd buy the raincoat, The orange one, That he forbade. We'd wait for rain, We'd walk by his house. In the front, Not by the lane. And I know, It takes 22 steps, From the walk to your door, It takes 22 steps, Because I've tried it before, And one day I'll knock, But just not yet. And I'm not so sure, That you would not say, Get out, don't step in, I'll never try again.{x2} It takes 22 steps, From the walk to your door, It takes 22 steps, Because I've tried it before, And one day I'll knock. But just not yet. If I were him, I'd know your birthday wish. |

You sang to me tonight
My lovers voice turned rivers wide. Flow me to her heart I want to listen from where it starts If i dive to deep, I pray to god my soul to keep. She can sing a symphony, like a three note melody. So hush, be still, crowd. And watch me fall to heaven And she will sing so loud And take us all to heaven. If you say you heard it all I would burn the music halls I can say I'll wait for years to hear her son with defeaning ears. She can sing a symphony, like a three note melody. So hush, be still, crowd. And watch me fall to heaven And she will sing so loud And take us all to heaven. Hush. Be still. Crowd And watch me fall to heaven And she will sing so loud And take us all to heaven. |

One day the world stood still
And we all sang one song Words came without any thought And we all sang so strongly And the angels came to hear this roar In a language never sung before It shook them right down to the core We all sang one song One song Call everyone step forward There can be no shyness here You've been called Step forward On this day of no fear At all Old friends and enemies too All came and knew what to do And they were all held up By the news We all sang one song One song Call everyone step forward There can be no shyness here You've been called Step forward On this day of no fear La la la la la la la la And we always sing La la la la la la la la And we always sing Call everyone step forward There can be no shyness here You've been called Step forward On this day of no fear |

Dark-eyed girl
This is your world What have you done my darling? Inherit all their problems I won't try and wake you Sleep 'til we land This is our secret This is your escape Sometimes, the world's upside down You feel like you're drowning You feel like you've gone too far Fallen star Your radar's alive Judges in your head You want to sleep so badly With the sugar of lead Apologies unread They'll sleep within your walls You're not invisible Sometimes, the world's upside down You feel like you're drowning You feel like you've gone too far Fallen star And you watch yourself And you know what's worse What do you trust Just to get by Can't sleep all night Can't sleep all day It's all too much It's all too much now It's all too much now Sometimes, the world's upside down You feel like you're drowning You feel like you've gone too far Fallen Dark-eyed girl This is your world |

When I meet God
I'll ask him nicely Bring my T.V. back for one day They took my wedding dress Just how can you repossess The day my father walked me home? And if I had a word with him I'll ask if he can help you too God save me God take me Don't give up Please don't fake me And please remind them Please remind them I was queen of my high school And when I meet God I'll ask him nicely Could he give the world amnesia And forget it's Christmas day And take my debts away And make me feel like the others do And if I have a word with him I'll ask if he can help you too God save me God take me Don't give up Please don't fake me And please remind them Please remind them I was queen of my high school And if I could have One word to ask of him I would not ask for much One word to One word to ask of him I would not ask for much God save me God take me Don't give up Please don't fake me now |

I'm, I'm losing air Don't know which way is up I'm losing air Please tell me which way is up This I'll admit, you are a wonder Blind to my kind, won't know my name And I would give up my world to see you Just can't come up, don't know the way I'm, I'm losing air Don't know which way is up I'm losing air Please tell me which way's up I'm losing air Don't know which way is up I'm losing air Please tell me which way's up Which way is up Which way is up Which way is up Which way is up Which way is up I'll show them I will climb Everest I'll show them I will climb Everest I'll show them I will climb Everest now |

Fly down, magpie, to my arms.
And sing your songs about the stars. And when you're done, just be a bird. There's nothing else, just be a bird. And rest your song against the night. And close your eyes. Put out the light. Your stars blew out without a word. Leave all alone to be a bird. Fall with your God. Let this hymn come help your fall. And let all those who judge you, let all who condemn, be still. Brush your dust off from your heart. And never let it fall apart. I read the past across your wing. Tatooed names of nameless kings. Fall with your God. Let this hymn come help your fall. And let all those who judge you, let all who condemn, be still. Is the last waiting room. And this is the last waiting room. This is the last waiting room. This is the last waiting room. And this is the last waiting room. And this is the last waiting room for us. So, fall with your God. Let this hymn come help your fall. And let all those judge you, let all who condemn, be still. |
