Friday night and all is quiet I look around but there’s nothing to see I find myself in the middle of this city My mind is restless but at least I know that I’m free I walk the streets and my mind is racing As misty rain falls upon my face Thinking of a love I used to have often But at the moment there’s no love in this place No love in this place I have noticed that I've found myself, deep inside myself And I don’t know which way is out This room is getting dark and cold All the people that have come and gone, have been noted down But in the end I’m all alone Is it such a waste of time? Deep in the back of my mind I’ll take the path that leads to higher cover From this flood of madness across this land I want to find some peace and tranquility With the sun in my eyes and my hopes cupped in both of my hand Hopes cupped in both of my hands I have noticed that I've found myself, deep inside myself And I don’t know which way is out This room is getting dark and cold All the people that have come and gone, have been noted down But in the end I’m all alone Is it such a waste of time? Deep in the back of my... Deep in the back of my... Deep in the back of my... Deep in the back of my mind Deep in the back of my... Deep in the back of my... Deep in the back of my... Deep in the back of my mind

Jigsaw 03:44
Pieces of a puzzle Like a memory, here then gone I felt like a jigsaw Just thrown together, I don’t feel whole Just thrown together, I don’t feel whole I felt, on the double I was in trouble, I was a clown You saw me at my best babe And at my worse babe, you found me out Oh and at my worse babe, you found me out I fall down, you pick me up I stumble when I fall But I know that I can’t lie alone Pieces of a puzzle Like a memory, here and gone I thought I was a teacher But I’m now a student of what I’ve become I’m now a student of what I’ve become I’m now a student of what I’ve become I fall down, you pick me up I stumble when I fall But I know that I can’t lie alone I fall down, you pick me up I stumble when I fall But I know that I can’t lie alone

Shadows 05:19
Its only one word That’s all that I ask of you I don’t ask for much But it seems that I have asked for the world You say that it’s okay And everything’s forgiven now But no matter what you say It never fits with what’s in my mind I’m walking away, walking in circles Looking through windows, oh A prisoner of my own mind I’m trapped in this lifetime, it’s never-ending Due to my sorrow, oh Shadows and lifetimes Can’t you see the tears in my eyes? My smile has disappeared It’s been replaced by all my fears Fears I’d thought were gone But now have come to haunt me again I dare to say a word Just incase you hear me wrong Its still the common thing Even though we are apart I’m walking away, walking in circles Looking through windows, oh A prisoner of my own mind Can’t you see the tears in my eyes? I’m trapped in this lifetime, it’s never-ending Due to my sorrow, oh Shadows and lifetimes Can’t you see the tears in my eyes?

I've packed my bags it's time to go The room is empty there's nothing to show My mind said no but my heart said yes I'm happy that I listened to my heart I guess But I know, I'm gonna leave it all behind As I say it in my prayers every night I'm gonna leave it all behind I turn off the lights as I look outside And I smile to myself with a senesce of pride I'm starting fresh from this day on I wont know who I am before too long But I know, I'm gonna leave it all behind As I say it in my prayers every night I'm gonna leave it all behind But I know, I'm gonna leave it all behind Coz it'll haunt me for the rest of my life I'm gonna leave it all behind I have told myself that times will change And I've been living out a lie I'm gonna look at this world in a different way So I can finally spread my wings and fly I've now turned a page in this book of life What's coming to me now is what I know is right The wheels of fate haven't stopped just yet But where it all stops you know it all depends But I know, I'm gonna leave it all behind As I say it in my prayers every night I'm gonna leave it all behind But I know, I'm gonna leave it all behind Coz it'll haunt me for the rest of my life I'm gonna leave it all behind

It only took one kiss from you to make my life complete Before you I was missing in my life Let me count the ways that you inspire me every day Just by being who you are all the time You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all It only took one kiss from you to live my life again I now feel warm where once I felt so cold Ever since I met you I am learning how to feel No longer am I barren in my soul You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all It only took one kiss from you for me to realise That you’re the only one who rocks my world I can’t imagine live without you each and every day I want to feel this way for now and evermore You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all You’re all I ever wanted It only took one kiss and that was all And that was all

Seeing Stars 03:49
Hold the phones and stop the press This will be better than the rest Coz my head is spinning And I am seeing stars You gave me life from a single breath No truer words have now been said Coz my head is spinning And I am seeing stars I feel so dizzy, I need to rest With this feeling I got in my chest Oh, I see the world now Through the eyes of love My head is spinning And I am seeing stars I’ll build a world in which you can live And give you all the space to move within But I'm hardly breathing As my eyes well up with tears I want to hold you in my arms And drown in your presence, your light and your love Coz my head is spinning And I am seeing stars I feel so dizzy, I need to rest With this feeling I got in my chest Oh, I see the world now Through the eyes of love My head is spinning And I am seeing stars My head is spinning And I am seeing stars My head is spinning And I am seeing stars

Looking at yourself in the mirror Is what you see lies? Thinking ‘bout yourself even clearer Is something you despise? Don’t turn to me now Coz the times too late to change your mind Don’t turn to me now Coz that’s what you get when you don’t ask Anybodies help along the way Why’s there so much loneliness When there’s so many people there? Are we all afraid of each other? Coz there’s no reason to be scared Don’t turn to me now Coz the times too late to change your mind Don’t turn to me now Coz that’s what you get when you don’t ask Anybodies help along the way Don’t you think it could’ve been better? With the choices that you made Coz all your life you were searching for pleasure But all you got was pain Don’t turn to me now Coz the times too late to change your mind Don’t turn to me now Coz that’s what you get when you don’t ask Anybodies help along the way Help along the way Help along the way

I love you babe oh can't you see The way you're walking down the street Will bring a dead man to his feet Oh, I'm in ecstasy Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you I love you babe oh don't you know You're the one who steals the show I got you now wont let you go Oh, I'm in ecstasy Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you You're the one Ive been looking for With every day I love you more My life began when you walked through my door Oh, I'm in ecstasy Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you Oh, I've never met a girl like you
9.
It’s 9am you wave goodbye And then I see you drive away One last kiss a warm embrace Means more than all the words we say I’m missing you already I don’t believe I said goodbye Missing you already There’s no need for asking why A window seat I try to push Away my feelings as I look outside Why I’m here is a consequence The movie plays on in my mind I’m missing you already I don’t believe I said goodbye Missing you already There’s no need for asking why I wish I could sleep but all I do Is listen to the sad songs on the radio Wish I could dream of the way things used to be But now I’ll never know If I travelled far away Everything would work out fine But all I’ve done is separated A part of me that’s needed to survive I’m missing you already I don’t believe I said goodbye Missing you already There’s no need for asking why I’m missing you already Cheap regrets is all I'll find I’m missing you already Tonight

Why are you so angry? And full of rage inside In a world of confusion You’re struggling with something in your mind Why are you hiding? Behind a mask of lies You can move any mountain But honestly you’ve got to want to try You want to see it, to feel it You want to be near it But nothing stands in your way You want to see it, to feel it You want to be near it But nothing stands in your way Nothing stands in your way Why are you frightened? There is no us and them As long as you fear Your situation still remains the same You say you are lonely And you can’t break out of your shell In your push to be heard You’re abandoning the ones who know you well You want to see it, to feel it You want to be near it But nothing stands in your way You want to see it, to feel it You want to be near it But nothing stands in your way You want to see it, to feel it You want to be near it But nothing stands in your way You want to see it, to feel it You want to be near it But nothing stands in your way Nothing stands in your way Nothing stands in your way Nothing stands in your way

I thought there was a time that we would last forever But I, got into the way No matter what you say I would take it all for granted Coz I, thought you’d always be there Coz I’m a half hearted man Half hearted man Half hearted man Ooh… You forgave me more than once or twice too often But I, couldn’t understand your pain And all the things I said and done that really hurt you If I could turn back time, I’d be changing my ways Coz I’m a half hearted man Half hearted man Half hearted man Ooh… You forgave me more than once or twice too often But I, couldn’t understand your pain And all the things I said and done that really hurt you If I could turn back time, I’d be changing my ways Coz I’m a half hearted man Half hearted man Half hearted man Ooh… Ooh…
12.
You wanna bed to rest your weary head We both endured another battle I cannot wait until this break of day To resolve this painful matter It’s hard to be or not to be afraid For all the reasons that you’ve given But all these lies are coming back again Even though we live in heaven It’s really obvious what happened today So let’s cut our losses and go our separate ways I said no way We can’t be together anymore I said no way We can’t be together anymore Stop telling me everything’s okay I know damn well that you are lying Oh come on babe do you take for a fool Well at least you keep on trying It’s really obvious what happened today So let’s cut our losses and go our separate ways If we can still be friends well that’s alright by me You know it’s for the best, baby cant you see I said no way We can’t be together anymore I said no way We can’t be together anymore I said no way We can’t be together anymore I said no way We can’t be together anymore
