Lene Marlin Album

You kiss my lips then say goodnight
You take my hand, turn off the light
I hear you breathe
I love that sound
I feel so safe with you around

And I never thought I'd feel it
Never thought I'd see it
Want to be much better than before
I was thinking I deserve less
Always I deserve less
Well I just don't do that anymore

I watch you sleep
I sometimes do
I close my eyes and think of you
I'll fall asleep you're still with me
I feel as great as I can be

And I never thought I'd feel it
Never thought I'd see it
Want to be much better than before
I was thinking I deserve less
Always I deserve less
Well I just don't do that anymore

I never thought I'd feel it
Never thought I'd see it
Want to be much better than before
I was thinking I deserve less
Always I deserve less
Well I just don't do that anymore

And I never thought I'd feel it
Never thought I'd see it
Want to be much better than before
I was thinking I deserve less
Always I deserve less
Well I just don't do that anymore

I just want to lock the door
Leave it all outside
Turn off all the lights
I just want to hide

Don't bother look for me
Not even sure that you would
So I don't have to tell
I'm not feeling well these days

Just give me directions
I'll go anywhere
I need to find something
I cannot find here
Just give me a chance
And I'll prove that you're wrong
I'll manage so fine
I can be strong

Then maybe I wanna come home

I just want to stay in bed
Stay right here for now
Left here with my thoughts
I don't know how

How to face another day
I'm not ready for it yet
So I don't have to show
That I'm not okay this way

Just give me directions
I'll go anywhere
I need to find something
I cannot find here
Just give me a chance
And I'll prove that you're wrong
I'll manage so fine
I can be strong

And maybe I wanna come home
Then maybe I wanna come home

Keeping my distance
I look but I don’t really see
It’s like things lose their colour
And people are walking right through me
To not pay attention
Not easy to see what’s passing you by
I gave it a try
Did not see you coming my way

Now you wanna hold my hand
You chose to take it
The truth is that I never really thought we’d make it
Here we are
No chance I’m leaving
Ideas of love and life for sure can be deceiving
Here we are now

How come it just happened?
By that moment I should’ve known
A purpose of meeting
Like then I did not believe you so
Somehow you got to me
Never again will I put up a fight
When everything’s right
Finally everything’s right

Now you wanna hold my hand
You chose to take it
The truth is that I never really thought we’d make it
Here we are
No chance I’m leaving
Ideas of love and life for sure can be deceiving
Here we are now

Now you wanna hold my hand
You chose to take it
The truth is that I never really thought we’d make it
Here we are
No chance I’m leaving
Ideas of love and life for sure can be deceiving
Hold my hand
You chose to take it
The truth is that I never really thought we’d make it
Here we are
No chance I’m leaving
Ideas of love and life for sure can be deceiving
Here we are now
Here we are now

I wonder who she comes home to if anyone
I wonder if sheЃfs in love, if there is someone
By the look on her face I canЃft figure it out
If there's people at all she can't live without

I wonder whatЃfs in their future if they met just now
The way they look at each other like they donЃft know how
They could be this lucky as never before
They doubted theyЃfd find love well not anymore

How weЃfd wish to know sometimes
If what weЃfre thinking happens to be true
How weЃfd wish to know sometimes
The story of a life I wish I knew
The story of a life I wish I knew

The little boy wish just socks on too small to walk
I wonder what heЃfd say to me if he could talk
Would be ask me to be kind, to take him away
'Cause his parents are yelling and fighting all day

How weЃfd wish to know sometimes
If what weЃfre thinking happens to be true
How weЃfd wish to know sometimes
The story of a life I wish I knew
The story of a life I wish I knew
The story of a life I wish I knew

What if she twisted
The truth to fit in
Hide all her scars
Where to begin, there are so many

The tales of her life
Some are too deep, cut with a knife
Some of them will never,never disappear
Just like the screams and the crying sheЃfll hear

You could come to get her, you could have
You could come to protect her, you should have
Somehow she managed, sheЃfs still around

Every night she closes her eyes
Talks to the angels then cries
But no one came to take her away
Just the way it isЃC
Nothing will change always like this
Then she just gave up gave up tryingЃC
A part of her still, she was hoping

You could come to get her, you could have
You could come to protect her, you should have
Somehow she managed, sheЃfs still around

You could come to guard her, you could have
You could come to save her, you should have
Somehow she managed, sheЃfs still around

LetЃfs make it easy
LetЃfs twist the truth
Sometimes it hurts too bad
For you to know

You could come to get her, you could have
You could come to protect her, you should have
Somehow she managed, sheЃfs still around

You could come to guard her, you could have
You could come to save her, you should have
Somehow she managed, sheЃfs still around

As time goes by its usual way
And reality's unfolding around me
I suddenly realize
I see it so clear just where I should be

That place is not here I'm sorry to say
I'm sure that you've felt it too
That feeling of sadness when happiness fled
Deep down you know what to do

I never knew 'bout tomorrow
I've deared see
I'll follow
Wherever it takes me
I know I'll follow my heart
Now I know

You may think I'm scared but I'm not
I'm ready to do what's right for me
I knew it all along
Just took some time but now I finally see

You can ignore what's right there in front of you
But at some point you open your eyes
It sure can be scary
There's no turning back
Only the truth
No more lies

I never knew 'bout tomorrow
I've deared see
I'll follow
Wherever it takes me
I know I'll follow my heart
Now I know

I never knew 'bout tomorrow
I've deared see
I'll follow
Wherever it takes me
I know I'll follow my heart
Now I know

If you were gone tomorrow
What would I do then
If this is it and I who thought that when
I saw you next I should say I need you
Simply 'cos I do
And you should know

If you were gone tomorrow
What would I do then
If this is it and I who thought that when
I saw you next I should say I love you
Simply 'cos I love you
And you should know

I would have been a fool if I, fool if I
Lost you either way
I would have been lost if I, lost if I left you
I'll stay
Now I know
I've learned from mistakes

If you were gone tomorrow
What would I do then
We think there's lots of time
We have enough of time

I would have been a fool if I, fool if I
Lost you either way
I would have been lost if I, lost if I left you
I'll stay
Now I know
I've learned from mistakes

Sometimes I can't take my eyes off you
Afraid that if I look away you're gone
Don't know what I would do then
Don't want to let you go
It took some time but now I know

Have I ever told you that you saved me
Thanked for all the good things that you gave me
Now it's time I understand
Go ahead, please take my hand

It never felt as right as this
I'm ready to move on

You see right through me every time
That's why I've just given up the act
I cannot tell how good it feels
It's all because of you
Did not see it then
But now I do

Have I ever told you that you saved me
Thanked for all the good things that you gave me
Now it's time I understand
Go ahead, please take my hand

It never felt as right as this
I'm ready to move on

Do you remember those days
When the sound of the rain made your day
You'd put on your raincoat, play in the mud
Nothing can take all that joy away

One cup of cocoa, then off to bed
Mud, still in your hair
You didn't care, fall asleep with a smile on your face
Nothing as safe as that place

Do you remember those nights
When the sound of the screams made you scared
You'd bring teddy bears, hide under the bed
You know you will sleep there instead

Prayers to God, then closing your eyes
Forgot your favourite bear
You didn't care, fall asleep with tears on your face
Nothing as safe as that place

I don't know what memories you keep
Maybe one, both, maybe none, but you know someone
You know someone

Do you remember those days
They allowed you to play in the sea
You'd put on your swimsuit, bring all your toys
Feeling as happy as you could be

Wrapped in a towel, then off to bed
Salt, still in your hair
You didn't care, fall asleep with a smile on your face
Nothing as safe as that place

I don't know what memories you keep
Maybe one, all, maybe none, but you know someone
You know someone

I don't know what memories you keep
Maybe one, all, maybe none, but you know someone
You know someone

Life sure has its ways
To steal its perfect days
And leave you there with tears
With anger and the fears

Yet your fight has ended now
And you will cry no more.

If we could change the past
We'd make some moments last
Those moments that were good
We'd change it if we could

To see your face again
Your smiles yes let's pretend

Yet your fight has ended now
And you will cry no more
