No Concern Of Mine 03:40
lyrics
buy track
i see people strive to be seen more than the sun i see ambition killing love i see a world where a hand won't rest unless you’re the best i see poetry lay in the simplest of phrases i see anthologies cut to a few pages i see what i write go largely unsaid the truth won't raise it's head and whatever you may think of me is no concern of mine i see people reduced to how they appear i see them dance till their souls disappear i see them start fights they don't hope to win the revolution never begins i see rain become a metaphor for tears i see every day trapped within it's year i see a world where no one wants to be so i'll let myself be me and whatever you may think of me is no concern of mine when the world falls down and nobody else is around will you be able to find yourself i see waves rise higher than the land i see millions dying, no one gives a damn i see the need to buy more than is sold so i'll take my soul off the shelf i see the leafs fall down and grow again i see the day go by in a spin i see fire burning all around but my worries they can't be found and whatever you may think of me is no concern of mine i don't need to know what you think you see because she loves me

I Want... 04:13
lyrics
buy track
i want a freedom that doesn't exist i want to sail in my pirate ship i want a treasure that can't be found i want an hour glass to flow up not down i want a love that can't be denied i want a dream that never dies i want a tomorrow that keeps today at bay i want a word no one else can say no one can take who i am from me no one can define what love is meant to be is it me and you, or is it you and me are we together, or as one i want a sunrise that breaks the sky i want an answer that removes the why i want one thing, not just some thing i want a phone nobody can ring i want a road that can't be mapped i want a hand to hold mine back i want the journey not the map i want to go forward, not go back no one can take who i am from me no one can define what love is meant to be is it me and you, or is it you and me are we together, or as one i want you, i don't want me i want a lock, i don't want the key i want to wait but only until now i want to be found, i don't care how i want you because you're not mine i want a minute without time i want to forget all i don't know i want to be here, not there no one can take who i am from me no one can define what love is meant to be is it me and you, or is it you and me are we together, or as one i want a place that can't seen i want to be stuck inside your dreams i want the one, not the third i want to life to be even more absurd

you don't like it now do you thought you'd found a place to hide thought you'd keep your eyes to the floor ignore all the questions behind the door you don't like it anymore you don't like it now do you when you're made to question who you are you have everything written down but in all those words your soul will drown you don't like it anymore you can't tell me how to live when you're doing the opposite you don't like it now do you your badge says it all but nothing too you're not sure if you're even real because you say things to appeal you don't like it anymore you don't like it now do you you want to belong but there's a price make sure you say all the right things be sure to bow to your chosen king you don't like it anymore you can't tell me how to live when you're doing the opposite you don't like me now do you because i walked out the stage door i threw away the script while you were learning lines for applause well i don't like you anymore

Little Time Left 02:50
lyrics
buy track
there's little time left, just so you know a little time left, which way will you go don't take it to heart and don't throw it all away the sun will set on us all one day if you're coming with me, it's just over the hill if you're coming with me, every thing we will be real is too much to give you all of my love? we're all playing the game, just some are out of luck there's only tomorrow ahead of today there's only tomorrow directly in your way whats your excuse and what story will you tell is it down to god or the devil that you failed? come with me it will be alright i will hold you tight throughout the stormy night the future looked good when it was so far away the future looked good but you're distracted by today what we want is still within our reach we're just learning the hard way what life has to teach stop looking back there's only a short way to go stop looking back you're just adding to sorrow all that you did you don't have to throw away but regretting what you said could be the only card to play just keep on walking, there isn't far to go just keep on walking, we'll be there before you know over the horizon just one more time i've got your love and baby you got mine

however long it takes, i will wait time keeps going on, i know where i belong however many days pass. i will wait all that comes will go but not me, i will stay however many raindrops fall i'll shelter you from them all i promise, i promise however many things change, i will wait patience is the key for all to come naturally however many raindrops fall i'll shelter you from them all i promise, i promise the days can be so lonely when i'm without you i don't ever want to ever lose you i don't want to let you go because i need you, i need you however long it takes, i will wait time keeps going on, i know where i belong

when did you decide that you would be mine when did it feel so right to share your heart with mine when did you feel that what we had was real when did you lay down your heart and trust me not to depart you came out of the blue and i fell in love with you when did you decide now was the time when did it feel so right to let your lips meet mine when did you feel that love should be revealed when did you lay down your heart and our love could start you came out of the blue and i fell in love with you

lyrics

tomorrow will come in it's own time but fate has decided you'll be mine we've known each other for many years and todays the day i say "i love you" dear i'd been searching all over the place for something starring me in the face our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today laying with you makes the world stop still i can't help how you make me feel the way you laugh, the way you move the look in your eyes and the things you do the feel of your lips on mine you are the best thing alive our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today love can rise, love can fall but the sun won't set if we outrun them all we could find a freedom from everyone except for the important little ones i can't promise you silver or gold but i'll be there when i'm grey and old our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today people will judge, people will hate i'll put them all in their rightful place words are words and words alone let's trust the feelings in our bones i feel like i am on top of the world and it's all because you're my girl our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today we've been starved of each others arms so lets not waste time that is ours every moment, every kiss takes me away to a timeless bliss let me play you our song here, there and everywhere our love belongs our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today i loved you before i knew i did i loved you before fate stepped in come on baby ride me high let me wipe those tears dry me and you are going all the way all the way to a brighter day our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today it's like a puzzle that seemed so hard but the pieces fit easier than we thought how much of life is lost in waiting let's go forward without hesitation no map would have shown us the way but we were bound to get here someday our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today nothing is easy if there's doubt you removed all that by being about the seed was sown before we knew that love would grow between us two not everyone will understand but girl i won't let go of your hand our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today having you near kills my fears i will love you for a million years to hold you close, to call you mine is worth more than any diamond mine you get me dizzy, i feel so alive you're on my mind all of the time our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today our love set our minds on fire you are the one i truly desire we have so many memories already we'll make more when we're good and steady it was the simplest of times that i hold deepest in my heart our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today i didn't think i was made for this world but i've found the person i was made for the past has all been and gone tomorrow can be guessed by anyone if in this moment all i have is you then it's all i need to see me through our love is always there we just can't put it together tomorrow or today

i was stuck in a rut, you helped pick me up you held out your hand, girl please understand with every little touch, i fall further in love i'll go that extra mile, just to make you smile when i was down, you helped turn me around there's beauty in you, it's my favourite view with every little touch, i fall further in love i'll go that extra mile, just to make you smile when i'm with you the world is still and everything, everything feels right with every word we share, my broken heart repairs day by day, you make it all okay with every little touch, i fall further in love i'll go that extra mile, just to make you smile i'll go that extra mile, just to make you smile
