Follow your heart
03:04
|

|
Don't look at me with your beautiful eyes,
don't you know can be a lie.
And don't you know that you're really not the same,
different, from the shadows of blame.
Don't look at me and please - don't say goodbye.
Don't you know our love ain't mean't to die.
Follow all the way along the path to find your love,
turn right, take a left, go up and around until the meanings clear, my love.
Follow your head when you’re feeling blue,
but follow your heart if your aim is true.
So follow your heart until you find love,
follow your head to see the way above,
follow your heart until the time is right,
follow your head until you see the light.
You can do whatever you wanna’ do,
You can be whoever you wanna’ to be.
Follow all the way along the path to find your love,
turn right, take a left, go up and around until the meanings clear, my love.
Follow your head when you’re feeling blue,
but follow your heart if your aim is true.
Don't look at me with your beautiful eyes,
don't you know they can be a lie.
And don't you know that you're really not the same.
You're different, from the shadows in vain.
Don't look at me and please - don't say goodbye.
Don't you know our love ain't mean't to die.

Welcome to nowhere
03:12

Hello and welcome to nowhere,
shadow of the night.
Do you think you're going somewhere?
Are you sure it'll all turn out right?
Have you thought of where, everywhere?
Do you know what you really want, and is it right?
Keep up with the future,
keep up with your friends.
Share your life together,
but that don't mean you've got to fight,
that ain't right.
Good day to you my everyone,
shadow of the night.
Want you to get there.
Really want the world to right.
I want you to be happy,
but you make me feel like dark in the light,
and is that right?
Keep up with the future,
keep up with your friends.
Share your life together,
but that don't mean you've got to fight,
that ain't right.
Evening, this is the future,
shadow of the night.
Daylight that's been covered.
Black, whilst half the world is white.
It'll keep on going for ever, but remember;
we're only, shades of the light,
maybe that's right.
Keep up with the future,
keep up with your friends.
Share your life together,
but that don't mean you've got to fight,
that ain't right.

Faith
03:42

Faith, I need someone,
I need someone to talk to.
Faith, I need you,
I need you to talk to.
Faith I need you more, more every day.
Need you more every day, more every day.
It used to be the lazy days and hot nights were short,
but now that you're gone, the time drags on,
a week since this morning.
I shorten the days, but can't sleep, nightmare in my way;
there's a nightmare in my way,
nightmare in my way.
Faith, faith - I need you more every day.
Faith, faith - I need you more every day.
Faith, you've got me
shot on the rocks looking for you.
I spend my time wandering,
should I cut short the day, when I'll night on forever.
But heaven or hell, that ain't the way.
That ain't the way, that ain't the way.
Faith, faith, I need you more every day.
Faith, faith, I need you more every day.
Faith, your face is blurred now but I still need you.
I'm sorry you fell, my words fail me,
like I failed you.
Your soul is heavy but I'll carry it anyway,
I'll carry it anyway.
Faith, faith, I need you more every day.
Faith, faith, I need you more every day.
Faith, faith, and I'll see you again some day.

You're the kind of love, who makes me want to sing.
To sing I'm so glad you've here,
no longer far away, oh maybe…
You're the love of my dreams
please tear don’t my mind apart.
You know the worst thing that I can say about you is, that you are my best friend.
So don't you try to tell me that you're leaving home, and, don't try to tell me that you're heart is,
made of stone, 'cos love,
you're so for real, make me feel,
so I really wanna’ care for you.
You're so sincere that I care, I care,
I really wanna’ care for you.
You love me so bad that I care.
You're the lover who inspired my soul,
to love to the very end,
you know I feel that maybe this is heaven,
so please, don’t pretend,
Oh maybe, you’re the feeling in the morning that tells me I really wanna’ love some more.
You know the worst thing that I can say about you is that you are my best friend
So don't you try to tell me that you're leaving home, and, don't try to tell me that you're heart is,
made of stone, 'cos love,
you're so for real, make me feel,
so I really wanna’ care for you.
You're so sincere that I care, I care,
I really wanna’ care for you.
You love me so bad that I care.

Feline friend
04:00
|
|||
|
Standing in the corner, alone at the party,
nobody saw me leave -
No-one to feel my pity misery.
Walking alone downtown ain't fun when no one's around.
Nobody to be with, no soul to talk to.
Starry night, blinking lights surround me as I wander,
but they can't reflect, my quiet liberty.
When everything's caving in,
when everything's dark as the blue.
When nobody wants to know,
tell them I'm shooting down sparrows,
oh for a feline friend, I used to know.
Today I took a walk down to the river and the park,
saw an old man walking down there.
He was alone, but no sadness showed,
think it must be self-induced.
And now I see that my misery was blind,
they said I was a fool and now I believe them.
Now my life ain't caving in,
now my life ain't dark no more, now I've found living once more.
••••••but remember
When everything's caving in,
when everything's dark as the blue.
When nobody wants to know,
tell them I'm shooting down sparrows,
oh for a feline friend, I used to know.

Feeling world
03:48
|
|||
|
You walk to the door - leaving,
how do I find the words to say, I love you.
You don't see me,
he's only my dark shadow.
He walks in front 'cos the light,
is shining so bright behind.
Why can't you see, that the shadow isn't me.
Why can't you see that it's only,
darkness running away,
anger running away,
my fear running away.
Oh,feeling world,I want you.
How do I tell you that I love you.
How do I tell you that the real me wants the real you,
my world, I love you.
You look at me wide eyes,
can you see me burning.
Your shy reflection mirrors,
more than your marred perfection. It hides a feeling that I wanna ‘hold oh so tight.
So look at me and tell me that the shadow isn't real.
Tell me that you want me to say that -
I love you,
my world, I love you.
Oh, feeling world I want you.
How do I tell you that I love you.
How do I tell you that the real me wants the real you.
My world, I love you.

Love again
02:01
|
|||
|
And you told me you were in love again,
you told me it was ok.
You told me you were in love again,
the heartache’s gone away.
We grew up living on loving,
we carried on for today,
‘cos you told me we were in love again,
the heartache’s gone away.
And we’ll live our lives on love today,
we’ll live the night and the day,
we’ll live forever with nothing,
our hearts are growing today.
We grow up living on loving,
we carry on, for today,
‘cos you told me we were in love again,
the heartache’s gone away.
And we’ll live forever on loving,
we’ll be together to stay,
we’ll know that we’re in love again,
The heartache’s gone away.
We’ll grow up living on loving,
we’ll carry on for today,
‘cos you told me you were in love again,
the heartache’s gone away,
yes, the heartache’s gone away.

The company of us
03:06
|

|
They're gonna' buy two diamond rings,
lots of pretty things.
They're gonna' earn more because they strive,
to be a richer pair,
with fancy clothes and flair.
People running to catch the end.
You won't be there, so forget about yourself.
Won't exist so think of someone else.
You're only one; so please, join the company of us.
Can you feel the lovers smiling?
Can you hear the sunset fading?
Can you find anything that you want?
Can you see your diamonds flashing;
the colours clashing?
can you believe anything that you see,
in these stranger than fiction times?
They’re gonna get more tax free pay,
gonna’ have a holiday.
Fly to countries you’ve never seen,
gonna' buy a bigger house,
drive a faster car,
can't you see that you won't go far for them.
You won't be there, so forget about yourself.
Won't exist so think of someone else.
You're only one, so please join the company of us.
Can you feel the lovers smiling?
Can you hear the sunset fading?
Can you find anything that you want ?
Can you see your diamonds flashing;
the colours clashing?
Can you believe anything that you see,
in these stranger than fiction times?

You’re inside my heart
04:10
|
|||
|
One step away from my hand,
two steps away from my head,
three steps away from my life,
but you’re inside my heart.
Oh, d’you wanna’ know,
when the feeling starts to grow,
like, I wanna’ know,
if I’m inside your heart,
like you’re inside my heart?
And, when I’m looking for you,
I’m sometimes not aware,
that I’m only half there,
singing, sad songs to understand,
singing, sad songs to understand……
There’s a dream we have of united man,
peace of mind and reason.
There’s a hope we have of love and calm,
life without oppression.
But it seems so far away, from today.
It seems so far away,
so let us pray,
together, we can find a way.
Repeat…
……d’you wanna’ know,
when the feeling starts to grow,
like, I wanna’ know,
if I’m inside your heart,
like you’re inside my heart?
And, when I’m looking for you,
I’m sometimes not aware,
that I’m only half there,
singing, sad songs to understand,
singing, sad songs to understand.

Love, you’re such a friend to me,
heart and mind they see,
you shine, and you can,
light my darkest hour.
Seems to me, that you could be,
the brightest diamond star.
Look at you, my heart renews,
maybe, I can fly to you.
Love, you can light my darkest hour.
When I sleep I dream of you,
one of the brave and the few,
you showed life and hope to me.
Love when you shine I know, you'll always be there.
Love, you’re such a friend to me,
heart and mind they see,
you shine, and you can,
light my darkest hour.
Seems to me that you could be,
the brightest diamond star.
Look at you, my heart renews,
maybe, I can fly to you.
Love, you can light my darkest hour.
