Welcome love, I have made a place for you here
And I know every word they say
I don't want it want to make you change
Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
I can love you as you are
I didn't mean to make you want to leave
In the fight between my heart and mind
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
If you don't find a love you want
If I have acted ungracefully
I don't want to see you go
I never meant to make you want to leave
Go if you want
Make your way straight to the door
I hope that you will pack before you go
Cause grace always packs before it starts to leave
In the fight between my heart and mind
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time
Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
I will love you as you are
I didn't mean to make you want to leave
It's a fight between my heart and mind
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time

rain rain rain on my mind
I've got a secret life
wipe wipe wipe it away
nothing can make me dry
fight all the while
fight till I think I'm free
feel rains we'll never see
beautiful secret lives
it can make you,
face all your fears
oh smile smile in the day
fear takes its place at night
oh oh be in the rain
i love your secret life
it can make you,
face all your fears
i could leave you well enough
alone believe and you'll be overcome
and gone by grace away
better off than if I stay
i could leave you walk away
we'll save it for another day
through all the wars have come to know
it's best to know that time was grown in
i think I'm knocking on your hearts door
choose the one who loves you more, oh
and when you find something to die for
(it can make you face all your fears)

Hey Amanda
Where'd you find these crazy boys this time?
They say you're pretty but you don't think they're right.
Hey Amanda
While you're staring at your telephone tonight
do you feel like turning it off, turning off all of the lights?
Pin your wings down
if it's over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow
Hey Amanda
who just threw your heart away this time?
And when you're crying on your bed does he help keep you alive?
Pin your wings down
if it's all over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow
I'll take the blame if you take me home now
Cuz there's no place left for trust in all this pain
And you know when it rains in this town I get washed away
Without a sound
So pin my wings down
If it's over
If it's over now
Pin your wings down
if it's over now
Pin your wings down
. . .

Am I sleeping with my eyes wide?
Am I alone?
Am I staring into bright lights?
Have I gone home?
I must be dremaing when I'm sitting here in someone elses throne.
Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Won't you let me know?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Am I sleeping with my eyes wide?
Am I alone?
Am I staring into bright lights?
Have I gone home?
I want to see your hairline
And cheek bones
And red lips
And cell phone
Won't you let me know?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?

I hid myself from failure and fear
O my dear you're a threat to the bad in us all
They tell themselves that each word from your lips
Or the grace in your eyes overcomes any fall
Over the twilight you're listening for me
Darling, go to sleep
Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be
Loved so deep
Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite
You'll tell them you're proud of my loveless flight
Don't hide yourself inside till I'm old
O my dear you're a threat to the bad we all see
I'm beside myself for the touch of your lips
Or the grace of your eyes that can see good in me
Over the twilight you're listening for me
Darling, go to sleep
Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be
Loved so deep
Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite

You don't have to be ashamed
'Cause you're a miracle through and through
Oh, and you don't have to be ashamed
Of the miracle inside of you
What has love become?
(What has love become?)
It's not like we're used to hearing those old songs
And it's not like yours
(And it's not like yours)
What has love become?
Whoa...your love is in motion
And it's spinning me around, yeah
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the movement that's in you
You should not be angry
If all she wants is your money
Oh, you should not be angry
'Cause all you want is her body
What has love become?
(What has love become?)
It's not like we're used to hearing those old songs
And it's not like yours
(And it's not like yours)
What has love become?
Whoa...your love is a fast song
And I'm dancing 'cause I'm in love with you
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the rhythm inside you
Whoa...your love is a slow song
It's resounding through my world again
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the song inside of you
Whoa...your love is in motion
And it's spinning me around, yeah
Whoa...your love is a fast song
And I'm dancing 'cause I'm in love with you
Whoa...your love is a slow song
It's resounding through my world again
Whoa...my heart is in motion

Quiet now, your voice seems miles away
It's somehow I here your song resound
A little bit softer each day
And from my tired heart, a little bit farther away
I'll sing along
The whole day through
Just do your best to hear me
It's all you can do
You have my attention
Like you've had all the while
Since that first day when you made my heart smile
With loving eyes and tired sighs that flow
You have my attention
Like you shout through an empty sanctuary
Speak but a whisper
I'll hear a summer
I'll sing along, the whole day through
Just do your best to hear me
It's all you can do
I'll sing along, the whole night through
While you sleep safely
I'll be thinking about you
. . .

I've never any time to play
I always seems to slip away
but it never really goes by
while I wait here with my lullaby
for our only try
sing with your head up
with your eyes closed
not because you love the song
because you love to sing
because you love to sing, oh
you saw this frustration on my brow
you noticed I'm distracted now
I'm thinking only of my bill fold
and how I want to face you with
diamonds and gold in my head, in my head
sing with your head up
with your eyes closed
not because you love the song
because you love to sing
. . .

Do what you want but I know who you are
Say what you want but I know what you're thinking
Go where you want but I won't be too far
Go where want and I know where you'll end up
If you fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back
I'll fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back from you, oh
You oh
You oh
You
Do what you want but I know who you are
Say what you want but I know what you're thinking
If you fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back
I'll fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back from you, oh
You oh
You oh
. . .

With a heart so pure
You could fall so quickly
But don't you dare slow down for me
Were it not for hearts like mine
Calloused thickly
You could fall so easily
(Don't you dare slow down for me)
You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side
You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side
Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
This moment could be our last
You fall in love and I'm running after
You move way too fast
But don't slow down
And don't let go
Hold me close now, lest I fall
They say I don't know how to love the right way
But you make me feel, you make me feel like I do
You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side
You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side
Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
This moment could be our last
You fall in love and I'm running after
You move way too fast
Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
(Don't slow down)
This moment could be our last
(Don't slow down)
You fall in love and I'm running after
(Don't slow down)
You move way too fast
Don't slow down
Don't slow down
Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
This moment could be our last
You fall in love and I'm running after
You move way too fast
Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
(Don't slow down)
This moment could be our last
(Don't slow down)
You fall in love and I'm running after
(Don't slow down)
You move way too fast
Don't slow down
