I'm clearing a shelf A shelf containing books that I once read There's nothing I'd rather do more Like flicking a switch A switch that helps to disconnect my head There's nothing I'd rather do more I should have stayed home I shouldn't have gone out I should have done all the things we almost talk about Looking back it seems so clear Look at the state I'm in I'm dying standing here Looking back, looking back I woke up too soon I never seem to get much sleep these days It's strange cause I'm always so tired I made a mistake And now I'll have to face the questions in my head Oh and you know it's so true That's why I keep on telling you I should have stayed home I shouldn't have gone out I should have done all the things we almost talk about Looking back it seems so clear Look at the state I'm in I'm dying standing here Looking back, looking back I should have stayed home I shouldn't have gone out I should have done all the things we almost talk about Looking back it seems so clear Look at the state I'm in I'm dying standing here Looking back, looking back

Misunderstood (free) 03:47
One time two times it seemed so much more Love me to the end I'll see the best you can store It's all over we don't know why I don't see this any way to be in your eyes Lovers we're misunderstood cause I feel good Lovers so misunderstood cause I feel good Take your time make it all seem so good If I had my chance again I'm sure that I would Over and over it goes in my head I'm not gonna lose it over something she said Lovers we're misunderstood cause I feel good Lovers so misunderstood cause I feel good You're looking for the fight you never need It's as natural as air you breathe She'll forgive you when it's all calmed down It's the love that keeps your whole world turning round You never cry Lovers we're misunderstood cause I feel good Lovers so misunderstood cause I feel good Lovers we're misunderstood cause I feel good Lovers so misunderstood cause I feel good

Tilting the bottle you started last night Same pleasure make it alright Help you forget what you've not done all day Sweet liquor to take it away They'll watch you And call you Cause they need you Which makes it so hard to walk away Everyday is the same of the last Each evening escape from the past You could have gone out but you'd rather stay home No hoper, down on your own They'll watch you And call you Cause they need you It makes it so hard to turn away So bitter cynical and tired But needed more than you will ever know Old trooper you're gonna have to last They'll watch you and call you Cause they need you It makes it so hard to walk away

Catch me on time Fill me in news It's all about people and places that I'd never choose Free? Freedom's not all that you need All I see, I see more fear Feel like wasting away Nothing to say Who's that girl Slow down Please believe me This town it almost beat me Feels like each day's been dragging you down And you can't get your head out the ground But there's better days coming around Been too long losing How can I explain a thing to you You won't understand, I don't want you to Should you close the door and hide away Find that melody, feel that sunny day Oh Breathe, just breathe Breathe, open up and breathe Slow down Please believe me This town it almost beat me Feels like each day's been dragging you down And you can't get your head out the ground But there's better days coming around Been too long losing

You and I 03:50
Your smile is wide And your suit is Italian and perfectly made A silent sigh This is what you deserve, for the game that you played You, you don't mind And I, I'm pleased that life's treating you kind But we all, all get scared So please, wake up and see what is there Your tone has changed Since you met all the beautiful people out there But I'll refrain From a distance old friend, please be aware You, you don't mind And I, I see that life's treating you kind But we all, all get scared So please, stand in these shoes if you dare Heaven forbid you should need me When you're finally able to see I've been here all along You, you have changed too You do what you do and you say what you say Yet I can't help but feel like you'd rather I kept out of your way

Into orbit (free) 03:12
Liberated nine to fives Packed in bars like bees in hives Such a lot of rain must fall Such a lot to cleanse us all If only for a while Send me into orbit please By telling me you're gonna love me Cause I don't know where love has been I didn't know I had it in me My back's against the wall You and me we're just the same look for someone else to blame It's easier for a while Don't you know I need you all It's only cause I'm feeling small I really should have smiled Send me into orbit please By telling me you're gonna love me Cause I don't know where I have been I didn't know I had it in me Drop me down town by the bus stop please sir I wanna get outta my head Send me into orbit please Send me into orbit We'll meet you inside we'll be drinking there all night I've been there before it's alright Send me into orbit please Send me into orbit

Yes I'm finally coming round To the joy that I have found I used to think one day I'd fly Now ambition's passed me by Now I take my chance with the quiet life It's just the way things turned out There are those who strive to be On a stage for all to see But you see that's just not me It's not the way I know how to be I take my chance with the quiet life It's just the way things turned out You just keep on being the best And I'll do like all the rest Cause imitation's all you'll be Another imitator like me So let me be unseen unknown Till this crowd has all gone home Hapless words and melody I'll write for you to comfort me I take my chance with the quiet life It's just the way things turned out I take my chance with the quiet life It's just the way things turned out

Summer 03:12
Summer is here again It's all good Summer is here again It's all good Lingering days Stretching out in a haze Revealing us all A whispering breeze While you shade beneath trees Persuaded you must take it slow Summer is here again It's all good Summer is here again It's all good To feel such a thirst You must quench like your first How sweet it will be And when the day cools And we're laughing like fools Alone, my true love and me Summer is here again It's all good

Last waltz 02:57
First of all it started so well Just goes to show that you can't always tell Through it all, pretence, and bottled up dreams Destined to tear them apart at the seams As she takes each step away It's always to return But he knows This was the day This was the day that he knew With his love rejected and halved Alone is a man who just followed his heart Through it all, to then, so desperately plead Who is this other who is all that you need As she takes each step away It's always to return But he knows This was the day This was the day that he knew This was the day that he saw This was the day he found out As she takes each step away It's always to return But he knows This was the day This was the day that he knew This was the day that he saw This was the day he found out It's over

You danced with me You left with me Two souls from the start We got on so easily Dream those dreams of lovers dreams that we made You fix me up You help me out You're there by my side Cause you know what love's about Dream those dreams of lovers dreams that we made Everybody needs a little bit of something else I'm glad that I met you girl Everybody needs a little bit of something else I'm glad that I met you girl Who knows what will Or won't become For now I'm content As we lie here in the sun And dream those dreams of lovers dreams that we made Everybody needs a little bit of something else I'm glad that I met you girl Everybody needs a little bit of something else I'm glad that I met you girl Everybody needs a little bit of something else I'm glad that I met you girl
