Starting today I'm not gonna waste another moment
Even if I had the chance before I would have blown it
But you took me by surprise
And you caught me just in time
Everyday you give me reason not to walk away
I stop believing that the world's gone crazy
And if it is you'll save me
Starting today I'm not gonna worry about tomorrow
I'll wash away all this fear that's left me feeling hollow
Cause you made me want to try
And you caught me just in time
Everyday you give me reason not to walk away
I'll stop believing I should burn like crazy
Cos if I did you chase me

Anyway, I should have told you
So many times
That I shyed away
Somehow you always seem to
Be there, making it easy
And you give me reason to stay

Everyday, Everyday, Everyday
Oh everyday I'll stop believing that I should burn like crazy
Cos if I did you chase me
Anyway you give me reason not to walk away
I stop believing that the world's gone crazy
And if it is you'll save me


. . .



I walk a mile with a smile
I don't know
I don't care where I am
But I know it's alright

Jump the tracks
Can't get back
I don't know anyone around here
But I'm safe this time

Cos when you
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Stupid things, like you do
Yes, I
Have to, have to, have to
Change the rules
I can't lose

CHORUS
Cause I shiver
I just break up
When I'm near you
It all gets out of hand
Yes I shiver
I get bent up
There's no way that
I know you'll understand

We talk and talk
'round it all
Who'd have thought
We'd end up here
But I'm feeling fine
In a rush
Never trust
You'll be there
If I'd only stop and take my time

Cos with you
I'm running, running, running
Somewhere I can't get to
Yes I have to have to have to
Change the rules
I'm with you

CHORUS

BRIDGE

What if you get off at the next stop
Would you just wave as I'm drifting off
And if I never saw you again
Could I keep all of this inside


. . .



This summer time I have no fury
No chance of sinking sailing ships
If time stood still I'd take aim and fire
For you

For every ocean there must be shore
On which I stand with restless toes
When everything I look for in myself is in you

I feel a little more than empty
But I wanna feel more than full
It's a pity all I have
Is just enough to keep you satisfied
This knot can come undone no matter how we try to keep it tied

Inside this bottle there's a message
You may be drinking way too much
If I had the strength to take the weight of you I would

I feel a little more than empty
But I wanna feel more than full
It's a pity all I have
Is just enough to keep you satisfied
This knot can come undone no matter how we try to keep it tied

Something high it keeps me here
Something that keeps us together
???
You keep me dry despite the weather
I don't need to feel this way
For you but I do end up feel satisfied

It's a pity all I have
Is just enough to keep you satisfied
This knot can come undone no matter how we try to keep it tied

It's a pity all I have
It just enough to keep you satisfied
This knot can come undone no matter how we try to keep it tide

It's a pity all I have
Is just enough to keep you satisfied

. . .



You were right
And I don't wanna be here
If your gonna be there
Was that supposed to happen

I'll hold tight
I'll remember to smile
Though it has been a while
And without you does it matter

There's no room
No place to start
When our souls are apart

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here
I'm counting down the days

How've you been
It's just the usual here
And days are feeling like years
And every day's without you

Now I cry
Just a little too much
When I think of your touch
And everything about you

I feel cold
I'm in the dark
When our souls are apart

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here
I'm counting down the days

I'm counting down the days
I'm counting down the days

I'm gonna be your surprise
I'm gonna hold you so tight

Yeah

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
I'd hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
I'd hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here

. . .



Fallen three times in a row
Waking up with vertigo
But you were there to break my fall
Before I had to face it all

Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Cause I wouldn't wanna move on
Without you

I won't be lost
Next time you see me
My pain will be gone
Baby believe me I been trying
But my heart keeps on breaking
I won't be lost

Smiling like a billionaire
Hoping you were unaware
The walls inside were caving in
My world had come apart again

Don't let me it show
Don't let them know
That I wouldn't be very strong
Without you

I won't be lost
Next time you see me
My pain will be gone
Baby believe me I been trying
But my heart keeps on breaking
I won't be lost

Don't you give up on me
Cause I wouldn't be very strong
And I wouldn't wanna move on
Without you

I won't be lost
Next time you see me
My pain will be gone

Baby believe me
I been trying but my heart keeps on breaking
I won't be lost


. . .



You got it the wrong way round completely
The fact that I love you so
Doesn't make me a fool
One day you just might grow tired of chasing
The end of a rainbow
Your already there you know

So slow down
Tell me why you're running
Turn round
Let it out and keep it coming
Nothing I can do if I can't get to you
Slow down

Remember the day you came to see me
Even that lonely long drive
Couldn't keep us apart
And you opened up to me completely
And you gave me peace of mind
The rest we can leave behind

So slow down
Tell me why you're running
Turn round let it out and keep it coming
Nothing I can do if I can't get to you
Slow down

You don't have to hurt yourself
And feel so small
It's so confusing
And you're already there

Slow down
Tell me why you're running
Turn round let it all out keep it coming
Nothing I can do if I can't get to you
Slow down

So slow down
Tell me why you're running
Turn round let it all out and keep it coming
Nothing I can do if I can't get to you
Slow down

. . .



Sit down, wait a minute
I thought we were special
This town, and everyone in it
Moves a little faster than the underground
No time, time is money,
Feeling like a piece of machinery
Let down, when I saw you tumble
Falling over pieces of me

I, I, I wanna be your sanctuary, set you free, set you free (X2)

Foot down, turn it around
Don't even know where I wanna go
No sound, and tunnel vision
All I need is you on my radio
No time, time is money
We've been through the traffic to cross the street
Blue skies, now you're talking
Gotta get the shoes off my feet

Chorus

(Bridge)
I wanna lead you and follow you
I wanna hold you and keep it true
So many things that I wanna do
With you

Last night under the light
I thought we were special
Your smile, dance for a while
I'm here to help you to keep it

To keep it, to keep it, to keep it

Chorus(X2)


. . .



When I say it doesn't matter
It matters most of all
You're not up for conversation
So I'm blinded by it all

The further away you push me
The closer I feel to you

Every fall every crash
Everything that was never meant to be
All the perfect little things I could release
All the nights every time we were just about to leave
Now it makes no sense to me
But it seems when we fall that's when we land perfectly

Can't see what's before me
Cannot feel the ground
This place that we exist in
Is the sweetest thing I found

The further away you push me
The closer I feel to you

Every fall every crash
Everything that was never meant to be
All the perfect little things I could release
All the nights every time we were just about to leave
Now it makes no sense to me
But it seems when we fall that's when we land perfectly

The further away you push me
The closer I feel to you

Every fall every crash
Everything that was never meant to be
All the perfect little things I could release
All the nights every time we were just about to leave
Now it makes no sense to me
But it seems when we fall that's when we land perfectly

Perfectly

. . .


I'm looking for a way to calm these voices in my head
With all this mad confusion
I don't wanna leave this bed

I'm on the run
I'm on the run again
And I don't know which way is left
And there's no point in not being right
So I'll hold my breath till the morning
Till I see the light

I'm on the run
I'm on the run again
From me

I'm drowning in these feelings
And it's scaring me to death
Staring at the ceiling
So many things I could have said

I'm on the run
I'm on the run again
And I don't know which way is left
And there's no point in not being right
So I'll hold my breath till the morning
Till I see the light

So, so many times
So many signs
You're out there waiting
I should have known
You're out there waiting, oh

And I don't know which way is left
And there's no point in not being right
So I'll hold my breath till the morning
Till I see the light

I'm on the run
I'm on the run again
From me

. . .



Beautiful day
Shined when I needed that most
Shined on the church yard
Tin cans full of gold
Come on home
It's not too late
We can fall apart together

Beautiful girls smiled
When I needed it the most
Smiled on my heavy eyelids again

Come on home
It's not too late
You can fall apart together
Come on home
It's not too late
We can fall apart together
Fall apart together

Fall apart together
Fall apart together

Home don't wait till

Come on home
It's not too late
We can fall apart together
Come on home
It's not too late
We can fall apart together

. . .



The sun came up
Desperate, desperate
The stars above
Held you back
Once again

Half way here
Half way here they whisper

You talk so much sense
When you're sleeping
When you're sleeping

And you share all the secrets
And the mystery
When you're sleeping

I saw your tears
Violet, violet
And it's been years
The sky's been crying for you
I found out
Beautiful things about you
You talked so much sense
When you're sleeping
When you're sleeping, yeah

And you share all your secrets
And the mystery
When you're sleeping

So you go and wonder
Where you wander
Lose yourself to take us higher
And I'll be waiting
For you when you're down

You talk so much sense
When you're sleeping
When you're sleeping, yeah

And you share all the secrets
And the mystery

. . .



Melting honeycomb
Tie my shoelace on my own
That boy laughing
Wearing my hands (?)
To pull me back in

Home, home, home
To your love
Home, home, home
To your love

Climb down the oak tree
Feeling the dry grass
Under my feet
I'm here without you
Holding on, holding on
Nothing to lose

And I don't mind
You protecting me
To the end us
And I don't mind
You protecting all the others

You, you carried me in
To bed from the car
I painted your face
But I had to ask
Permission to go
But don't go to far
And we like to watch
All the flickering stars

You don't like your face
But that's who you are
I got all those shells
And put them in a box

How far would you go
If I didn't want to stop
I looked in your eyes
And it was all gone

Home, home, home
To your love
Home (to your love)
Home (to your love)
Home (to your love)
