Diamonds for your Tea
04:13
|
|||
Tall trees going down the street of the place we now call home
Forgive me but lately I've been thinking I could grow
A little older on your shoulder, if you tilt it right
A little longer we could get stronger, if we build it right
I've changed, I'm not the same since you came along
Everyday you call my name and you never give up
A little insane, a lot of war paint, drying on these walls
Now this is always, it's not just some days, till we learn to talk
Ooooooooooo
Wait for love in the morning
It could end without warning
Diamonds for your tea
You'll still be hungry
Diamonds for your tea
You won't get them from me
You won't get them from me
Gold for your bed
It won't rest your head
Gold for your bed
Well it won't be worth it
Well it won't be worth it
It's all for you
Everything we do
It’s all for you
Everything we do
Why don't you say you like it
It's all or not
Give it all you've got
It's all or not
Give it all you've got
Why don't you say you like it
Wait for love in the morning
It could end without warning
Wait for love in the morning
It could end without warning
It's all or not
Give it all you've got
It's all or not
Give it all you've got
Why don't you say you like it
(Wait for love in the morning, it could end without warning)
Why don't you say you like it
(Wait for love in the morning, it could end without warning)
Why don't you say you like it

I Hold My Breath
03:52
|
|||
It's never easy, leaving alone
Sitting up at the table making numbers turn odd
I try to pretend, it doesn't hurt me at all
I act so self assured, I act as though I'm adored
And I hold my breath as they tell me again
It won't be long, it won't be long
Go and explore, the world while you can
Cause you're just too young, to settle for less
And one day you'll find, you haven't got time
And there'll be no room, for a bitter decline
And I hold my breath as they tell me again
It won't be long, it won't be long
And I hold my breath as they tell me again
It won't be long, it won't be long
And all the girls are living with the boys
And their bank accounts are becoming joint
And everything's moving as it should
Well I would if I could, I would if I understood
And I hold my breath as they tell me again
It won't be long, it won't be long
And I hold my breath as I think back to when
It won't be long, it won't be long

Easily Swayed
02:55
|
|||
I'm sad to leave this city, this home away from home
I've been free and completely happy, since I stepped onto this soil
And it took no time to get here, just twenty-four hours short
And I fell into place, I fell into line more easily than I thought
Until I got here I didn't know a thing, I was easily swayed, I would do anything
I was told to do, I would play by the rules,
I was the sweetest girl until I met you
Let's walk the streets of this village, and fight off the heat of this town
‘Cause it follows us around like it's never going to quit, like the snow might not ever fall down
You kiss me on the steps of this entrance, you follow me through the front door
We'll cook up a feast in this kitchen, something we've never tasted before
Until I got here I didn't know a thing, I was easily swayed, I would do anything
I was told to do, I would play by the rules
I was the sweetest girl until I met you
And you wrap me up in layers, but too many that could be explored
You force my strength to crumble and fall right at your front door
And I'm locked in the walls of this feeling, I'm aware of the creeks in the floor
Sneaking around ain't easy in here, it's more obvious than I thought
Until I got here I didn't know a thing, I was easily swayed, I would do anything
I was told to do, I would play by the rules
I was the sweetest girl until we met
All you had to do was follow through, and deliver the thrill that would make me want you
Hold me up, and never stop
I was the sweetest girl until I met you

Thunder
03:38
|
|||
Come here closer darling, I wanna feel you on my skin
Yes you're invited to stay here until you do decide
Rumblings through the house
I can tell that, you're about to shout
I can feel your thunder
Moving through and under
Like a rush of wonder
I can feel it everywhere
We could use some time love, sometimes we don't even need to speak
Just sit here in silence so all I can hear is you breathe
All the noise you're throwing, it's really taking its toll on me
I can't hear clearly what you scream and what you need
Rumblings through the floor
I can tell that, you're about to roar
I can feel your thunder
Moving through and under
Like a rush of wonder
I can feel it everywhere
It's the calm before the
Stormy weather
Like running water
There's no stopping you
When it's finally over I know I'll probably miss the sound
That you've been making, all these years from now
Rumblings through the floor
I can tell that, you're about to roar
I can feel your thunder
Moving through and under
Like a rush of wonder
I can feel it everywhere
It's the calm before the
Stormy weather
Like running water
There's no stopping you

Wish To The Water
03:15
|
|||
Wish to the water, send me on down
Wish it was colder, leaving this town
As the wind blows, off do we go again
Where will it stop, where will it end
Where does this road lead again?
Look to the ocean, hearing it growl
Something you've stolen, just put it back down
What do we know, does time mend a friend?
How can it stop? How can it end?
I think I know where this leads again
Falling with our eyes closed, grabbing for your arms open
Hoping it all falls past us, needing to hear it spoken
Go on say it, won't you speak those words out loud
Go on say it, there's no getting off this now
Look to our children, don't make them cry
Look to the future, where do you lie?
How should I know? Does time mend a thing?
How can it stop? How can it end?
Think I know where this leads again
Falling with our eyes closed, grabbing for your arms open
Hoping it all falls past us, needing to hear it spoken

Shattered Dreams
03:38
|
|||
When I heard they were coming, I took my bike and hid it well, safe from burning
I went back to get my things, under the bed is where they'd been, but fire doesn't spare a thing
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be the little girl with shattered dreams
Connecting calls for pocket money, and he walked in from out of town, and he's what my soul found
But it wasn't long before the wind changed, and it took my parents as it blew, and my husband too
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be, all alone and incomplete
So it was time to face the city, three small children at my feet, alone in the front seat
Ran a shop to earn a living, I met a man who liked to drink, and his punch made me shrink
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be, falling down around his feet
Found the bottle, found the bible
Found a friend who poured the wine
But God took his sweet time
I looked after other people, for most of my life
But in the end it was all right, in the end it was all right

Canadia (Take Me)
03:45
|
|||
Take me to where I was, where the days are long under that northern sun
And somehow I felt like I belong, where I did no wrong
I know I can't turn back time, but given one more chance wouldn't think twice to dance
I'd double step in perfect time, to your song
I never thought I would say, that my hearts not here to stay
In my dreams I'm behind the wheel and I'm driving your highway
Take me to where I was, I'll fly into the night past that bright moonlight
And I'll turn up yesterday, but that's not all I'll gain
Some say plans were meant to break, just ride on the wind and let go of the things
That are stuck and you can't shake, I'm finally awake
I never thought I would say, that my hearts not here to stay
In my dreams I'm behind the wheel and I'm driving to your place
To your place, to your place, to your place place place place
So I'm not coming down, back to the bottom of the ladder with no push left to gather
And nobody knows my name, I can't do it all again
I never thought I would say, that my hearts not here to stay
In my dreams I'm behind the wheel and I'm driving to your place
To your place, to your place, to your place place place place

Heavy Words
03:24
|
|||
Forgive me but I have to be so rude,
I've been stamping down the fire holding back what I think of you
I was confused, with what I was seeing you do
I wonder what you do for a good time,
You sit around in circles telling tales of what you think it's like
You couldn't be, oh further from reality
What's it to you now
What we do and how
You've had all these years to throw around
These heavy words that bring me back down
Allow me to express myself for real
I've been holding onto feelings I can no longer conceal
Well I was polite, but now I don't know why in hindsight
I wonder why you went out of your way
To make your life a misery and watch it wilt away
When all I could have used was your confidence and truth
What's it to you now
What we do and how
You've had all these years to throw around
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down
Listen you are older, you should know better
Could have used your shoulder and your better sense
What's it to you now
What we do and how
You've had all these years to throw around
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down

Amigo
03:45
|
|||
My amigo, I'm where he goes
My amigo, I'm where he goes
I close my eyes, and I saw love, then I saw love
I think of you, and how you lie, inside my mind
You take me on and despite my mood you're always in tune
You don't speak back, and I'm lucky for that but it won't last for long
Don't stop me now, don't hold me down
Cause with you by my side I can take on this life, I won't be confused, impossible to lose
My amigo, I'm where he goes
My amigo, I'm where he goes
I feel you move, over my skin, and from within
I watch you grow, all by yourself and you don't need no help
You take my breath, up and away and that's all that is left
But I don't mind, I've fallen for you, you're my parasite
Don't stop me now, don't hold me down
Don't sound the gun, cause I've already won
And with you by my side I can take on this life, I won't be confused, impossible to lose
My amigo, I'm where he goes
My amigo, I'm where he goes
Don't stop me now, don't hold me down
Don't sound the gun, cause I've already won
Cause with you by my side I can take on this life, I won't be confused, impossible to lose
My amigo, I'm where he goes
My amigo, I'm where he goes

Loving Man
02:48
|
|||
Something bout the way you took my hand
Reminded me of a forgotten plan
I saw forward to a time when I felt alive
Cause finally I loved a good man
Please don't tell me how you feel about me
I cannot survive it one more time
I hurt you the most of all the hurt you ever felt
Cause I told a loving man I didn't love him back
Round and round and round we go and up and down and fast and slow
Shuffle to the left just out of sight
On and on and on we spin so fast now we're gathering speed to shuffle back into the light
Oh and if I had to say I'd say you're right
I can hear them talking just outside
Their judgement will slowly bring me down
They just need a story to fill in some time
And something bout that man will do just fine
You could write so many songs on why
But it would leave you empty I guarantee
No one in the world could ever guess how it came to be
Except that loving man who once loved me
Round and round and round we go and up and down and fast and slow
Shuffle to the left just out of sight
On and on and on we spin so fast now we're gathering speed to shuffle back into the light
Oh and if I had to say I'd say you're right
Round and round and round we go and up and down and fast and slow
Shuffle to the left just out of sight
On and on and on we spin so fast now we're gathering speed to shuffle back into the light
And if I had to say I'd say you're right
And if I had to go I'd say good-bye

Oh Honey
03:43
|
|||
Oh darling take me home, take me away lets go
Cause I've been waiting, I've been saving
For sometime, for sometime
Oh honey take my hand, oh honey be a man
Cause I have been used, waiting for you
All my life, all my life
All my life, all my life
Oh darling hold me near, and whisper in my ear
How you love me, and how you're sorry
Prove me wrong, prove me wrong
Prove me wrong, prove me wrong
All this time to you I have been true, I've been up and down and round with you
Then you went and lost all self control, yet my heart is yours it can't be sold
Don't let me down, don’t let me down X 9

Boy, You're a Nuisance
03:21
|
|||
Boy you know that you're a hero, you didn't have to do a thing
You have a way with perfect timing, cause you know timing's everything
Show them how you can be quiet, show us all how you can sing
Two weeks down and we're still counting, cause you know timing's everything
Boy you're a nuisance, making us useless in love
And you can trust for me to tell you, all that you ever want to hear
How you came from such a smart man, and her who means the world to me
I wonder what you think about us, like if you even had a choice
You knew us all before you got here, you were loved so long before
Boy you're a nuisance, making us useless in love
Boy you're a nuisance, making us useless in love
Slow down, no rush to find your feet
Travel on each of our heartbeats
Now I know what love is really, it's nothing like I ever thought
I could love my own at some point, if I learn to love at all
Boy you're a nuisance, making us useless in love
Boy you're a nuisance, making us useless in love
