Tanita Tikaram Album

Maybe I'm wrong
To want so much
I feel those kisses falling
Oh, it's never enough
Maybe it's a fool
Who turns to dust
Never knowing how to hold onto
Fearing who they love
Fearing how they love

Just tell me that it's something new
A place to lose myself and not feel used
That's just the old sound
That's just the sound of the rain
But it's not coming down again

Now you've been down
And hurt inside
To feel that no-one's waiting
And your heart's open wide
But the day isn't long
And there's so much to live
Don't tell me how your faith is near to broken
So much to give
So much to live

Just tell me that it's something true
A place to lose my head and not feel used
That's just the old sound
That's just the sound of the rain
But it's not coming down again
I feel my body moving,
I feel the sun on my face I do
I feel my world is changing,
I feel the sun on my face I do
'Cause baby I'm no-one's fool,
Baby I'm no-one's fool

Chorus & outro

You've got me going, for all your lies
You've got me going, the hoop is wide
I keep believing, and what have I gained?
So play me again

You've got me running, all over town
You've got me running, so deep am I bound
To talk of love is only to flatter
Play me again
Please play me again
In the night time's wandering, that's where I hide
For in its blush I am alive
Searching for your light
Searching for you light

In the beginning, the word is hot
Now I see the ruin, but I can't stop
For I'm so sentimental
Play me again
Play me again
Play me again

Play me again, let me fall through your hands

My love it's just not the same
no more the game before was real to me

My love you talk of so many things
I'll never seen I guess I've seen it all

Who knows how I could fall so far
all I know is your love is tearing in my heart

My love always not the same
no more I felt before you were real to me

My love I lived in so many dreams
though never seen I guess you seen it all

Who knows how you could stray so far
all I know is your love is tearing in my heart

Who knows how I could so far
all I know is your love is tearing in my heart

This is something to thank your fortune for
Although I got nothing & you got something
See I'm not fit to be an open door
Or the mat you wipe your feet upon
Please someone

Don't shake me up
Many's the time I've thought of you
Lying in my bed in the afternoon
No-one for company

This is the month that puts tomorrow back
Only you got something, I got sidetracked
Just for once I'd like my lover mapped
For me to write my name upon
Please someone

Don't shake me up
Many's the time I've thought of you
Lying in your bed with the ocean view
Not me for company

Don't shake me up
There'll be a time when I'm far from you
When I will see the trick of you
And the trick of you and me

Then the burden of my heart (say something)
Will not sing a sorry song
Yea, the burden of my heart
Will not be the sorry, be the sorry one

No, don't shake me up
Many's the time I've thought of you
Lying in your bed in the afternoon...

So far from home, is how life has been
I let the blues creep inside me
Oh, how they would hide me

But sadness and loss I hope they can see
Now that my heart's singing to you
Where you are
Everyday is new, everyday is you

I hear your heart singing to me
'Cause where you are
Everyday is new, everyday is...

I can't spend all my time
Just feeling let down
I can't spend no more time
Just hanging my head down

When it's so much better
To feel your love
So much better

So many years, I let pass by
Watching the sun in the morning
Without feeling the warmth on me

Now that I need, is all that I trust
I hear your voice singing to me
Where you are
Everyday is new, everyday is...

I can't spend no more time
Feeling left out
I can't spend no more time
Just, never working it out

When it's so much better
To let your love in
So much better

Yeah, yeah
I hear your voice singing to me
'Cause there you are, there you are
I hear your voice singing to me
'Cause where you are
Everyday is new, everyday is you
You
Everyday is you

Do you feel love is just a word to say sometimes?
...Love is just a word to say
We are so far from knowing
I feel so far

All my life I'll be running
From the things that I never done
All my life I'll be running
From the things that I never done
Still a fighter keeps the dream alive
If I wasn't this close to heaven
I'd be letting down the side

Lord knows I'll find a way
Through the sleepless city, its weary face
Holding you

Do you feel love is just a word I say sometimes
Do you feel love is just a word I say
For I feel so far from knowing
I feel so far from knowing
I feel so far from knowing
I feel so far

All my life I'll be running
From the things that I never done
All my life I'll be running
Keep me from harm

Some people say it's not the best
When it's the best that you can do
Some people say it's not a test
So what you trying to put me through

Don't let the cold come through my window
And steal this heart of mine
Don't let it all come down together
Not like the last time

(Don't let the cold come through my window
And steal this heart)

Some people say it's just the show
That's gone and made a star of you
Not the light and love you hold
That's another thing to be seen through

Don't let the night fall all around me
Not now I've walked so far
Don't let it all come down together
And lose a good heart
And lose a good heart

Where do you go
When it all goes wrong
You feel so know but you know no-one
You listen to a voice
That's so unsung

(Don't let the cold come through my window
And steal this heart
Don't let the night fall all around me
Now I've walked so far)

Don't let the cold come through my window
And steal this heart of mine
Don't let it all come down together
Not like the last time

Yeah yeah
Make that the last time
Let it go, let it go

Thought I'd call you up
To make you see what's true
But nothing seems quite right
It's like I'm lying back at you

If that's the way it goes
To cut you like it does
For nothing tastes more bitter
Than the fever that you lost

Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever

It's not like people leave
They're really leaving you
It's just a different world
Just a different thing to do

Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever

The more that you see her
The more you fall apart

You thought you were of stronger stuff my friend
A stronger heart my friend
You'd see it to the end
You're still searching in the dark

Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever
Forever for you...

I've got to give you up, oh
I've got to swear you off
I'm missing my people
I'm hanging the sign
With too much forgiveness, baby
But I hear your voice
And it sweetens mine

I've got to cool my head
You should have heard the sound
There so many rumours
They're chasing my tail
I'm almost forgotten myself
But I walked till noon
Just to find your trail

Time on my own
Believe I, believe I, I could use you
Time on my own
Believe I'd love the company
Time on my own
Believe I, believe I, I could use you
Time on my own
Believe I'd learn to love you

I've got to give you up, oh
You watch me walking off
Just like the film noir movies
I'm the girl that sinned
My hide is up for the sky
I just wait till dawn till the storm bell rings
Ring, ring, ring

Oh, Lord
She laid me low

When the heart has been in winter
And the soul is under lock and key
The chemistry of all emotion
Oh, Lord it's the chemistry

Takes a little while but I'll know when I'm feeling it
Takes a little while but I'll know when I'm feeling it

When the sky has found you silent
Where the colour spreads into mist
Where you hide in all your silence
The very centre of all our grief

Takes a little while but I'll know when I'm feeling it
Takes a little while but I'll know when I'm feeling it
Takes a little while but I know what I feel

When you call me
I'll be hanging on every word
You call me, yeah
You call my name

When the heart has been in winter
And the magic is lost on you
The memory of all emotion
Oh, Lord how it burns in you
