But I do know how you feel
You like to make me believe that you're fooling me
And don't give a damn about this now
But I hope no matter what you do
No matter what you choose
That you don't lose
That hunger in your life
Oh passionate you
Oh passionate you
I can see it now
I saw the briefest slip
A flash of anger with a single teardrop to explain
How your pain don't hide so easily
Hide anything from me
Now I can see that hunger in your life
Oh passionate you
Oh passionate you
I can see it now
And every time I look at you I see myself
And it tells me I don't ever want nobody else
You don't have to wear it on the outside every time
But I see every joy and every pain in your life
Oh passionate you
Oh passionate you
I can see it now
If I just can't see it now
My love will show you how you're so
So passionately you
If I'm hiding or I'm holding something back
I have nothing that isn't yours
But there's a place I need to go behind closed doors
I don't be afraid
I don't be ashamed
If you let me go you know I will be back again
And I know from the outside looking in
You can't find me here
You don't know where to begin
I can't say anything you need to know
You're the ocean, I'm an island
We're together but I'm still alone
Keep on sailing for the shore
When you get here you won't find what you were looking for
You're still reaching so I've been gone
So distant that I can't be touched by anyone
Just give me space
Some time away
It's a place only for me but I'll be back again
I don't need you to save me
I know from the outside looking in
You can't find me here
You don't know where to begin
If I can't say anything you need to know
You're the ocean, I'm an island
We're together but I'm still alone
I can't stop the moon from rising
And the sun will set exactly where it should
I can't stop the rivers from running
God only knows I'd stop you if I could
From not seeing me how you used to
From walking out the door
I can't stop you from not loving me anymore
I can do nothing if your mind's made up
No matter how I feel it's not enough for the both of us
So don't lie to me cause there's no need
I have fooled myself for too long
Cause you're still here but you're already gone
Spring time will come after winter
But the winter seems to last the whole year long
And I know, I know you're just trying to make it easier
While I'm sitting here trying to be strong
You can say you love me
It won't sound right anymore
Cause it's written on your face
So what are you waiting for?
I can do nothing if your mind's made up
No matter how I feel it's not enough for the both of us
So don't lie to me cause there's no need
I have fooled myself for too long
Cause you're still here but you're already gone
Your coat's still in the hallway
My heart's still in your hands
I don't want to face the truth right now
But that's not who I am
No that's not who I am
I can do nothing if your mind's made up
No matter how I feel it's not enough for the both of us
So don't lie to me cause there's no need
I have fooled myself for too long
Cause you're still here but you're already gone
I've had a plan, i'm starting today
I won't let these obstacles get in my way
When I am down and I'm feeling alone
I know what I've got to do
When I see blocks in the road up ahead
I won't get frustrated or turn back instead
I'll wait just a moment and take a deep breath
There's an easy thing to do
Counting 1,2,3 and 4
I won't let all these silly things bug me no more
Counting 5,6,7,8,9 and 10
I will calm myself down and be happy again
I don't want to see pain or darnkess no more
If I had the power I'd make it the law
To bottle the raindrops and banish the clouds
Let the sun shine through, that is what I got to go
Counting 1,2,3 and 4
I won't let all these silly things bug me no more
Counting 5,6,7,8,9 and 10
I will count myself lucky and be happy again
Counting 1,2,3 and 4
I won't let all these silly things bug me no more
Counting 5,6,7,8,9 and 10
If I'm not feeling right I'll start over again
Counting 1,2,3,4 and 5
I've got everything here that I need to survive
Counting 6,7, right up to 10
I'll add up all the good, leave no room for the bad to get in
I've been many places
But nothing felt like it was home to me
Making sense of all this was never gonna be easy
And I have had a million chances to let you go
And it doesn't matter what we do
Cause some things are out of our control
You can call it luck
Call it anything you want
But we were meant to be right here
You're part of my life
And that's all the faith I need
Cause we were meant to be right here
Right here
Life gets complicated so we try to go our seperate ways
We end up back together as if we had a choice either way
And I have always been so thankful to have a love like this
And I don't know how I came to love someone like you
But that's the way it is
You can call it luck
Call it anything you want
But we were meant to be right here
You're part of my life
And that's all the faith I need
Cause we were meant to be right here
Right here
One by one, years will fall but I will be right here
And life can't change us at all
It's always been so clear to me now
I have got a million chances but I'm not letting go
I'm not letting go
You can call it luck
Call it anything you want
But we were meant to be right here
You're part of my life
And that's all the faith I need
Cause we were meant to be right here
Right here
Cause if we don't we're left with nothing and that's what hurts
We're so close to giving up but something keeps us here
I can't see what's yet to come
But I have imagined life without you and it feels wrong
I want to know where love begins, not where it ends
Cause we don't know what we're doing
We're just built this way
We're careless but we're trying
Cause we both make mistakes
And I don't want to keep on running
If we're only gonna fall behind
We've almost got it right
But almost wasn't what I had in mind
We want it all and deserve no less
But all we seem to give each other is second best
We're still reaching out for something that we can't touch
Cause we don't know what we're doing
We're just built this way
We're careless but we're trying
Cause we both make mistakes
And I don't want to keep on running
If we're only gonna fall behind
We've almost got it right
But almost wasn't what I had in mind
You know there's nothing like this love
So we don't want to let it go
Cause we don't know what we're doing
We're just built this way
We're careless but we're trying
Cause we both make mistakes
And I don't want to keep on running
If we're only gonna fall behind
We've almost it got right
But almost wasn't what I had in mind
If you're lonely anytime
You can talk to me
When you have trouble on your mind
I will always be
Here to shield you from it all
The best way that I can
Anything you want from me
Call me day
Call me night
Call me anytime you need someone to hold you
The tears in your eyes
Will be gone, they will dry
And if you still find that you can't face the world outside
Let me be your place to hide
I could always lie to you
If that's what you need
Tell you life is never cruel
And people never leave
But love is not always kind
And hearts break all the time
And even if I'm far from you
Call me day
Call me night
Call me anytime you need someone to hold you
The tears in your eyes
Will be gone, they will dry
And if you still find that you can't face the world outside
Let me be your place to hide
Little corner of the world is what I give to you
Somewhere you can find some peace and understanding
Life can be so sweet
Call me day
Call me night
Call me anytime you need someone to hold you
The tears in your eyes
Will be gone, they will dry
And if you still find that you can't face the world outside
Let me be your place to hide
You'd think by now that I would have figured out
How to follow my heart
I thought I knew love like the back of my hand
But now it seems that all of my best laid plans
Are falling apart and this magnetic field is pulling me back in
I've been watching from a distance
Trying to hold back what I'm feeling
It doesn't matter that I've got so much to lose
There's something about you
Like I'm on stage with the light in my eyes
I'm losing my place and messing up all my lines
You know there's nowhere to hide now
It won't be long before
I'm waiting at your door
I've been watching from a distance
Trying to hold back what I'm feeling
It doesn't matter that I've got so much to lose
There's something about you
This is the right place at the wrong time for loving you
I wish I could tell you the way I feel
I've been watching from a distance
Trying to hold back what I'm feeling
It doesn't matter that I've got so much to lose
There's something about you
One day I'll catch this big wave
And take it on, not be swept away
Sometimes my arms get so tired
That when my turn comes it's gone again
If I could only wake up not feeling so confused
About what I got and what I'm trying not to lose
This love is like a changing wind
That passes by me, blows me away
And the only thing that's certain is I'm here today
And I don't think I could handle any other way
If I get dragged down I'll come up again
If I could only wake up not feeling so confused
About what I want and what I'm trying not to lose
I don't mind watching you if you're happy where you are
I've got a feeling something's on the horizon
But I just can't see that far
If I could only wake up not feeling so confused
About what I want and what I'm trying not to lose
One day I'm gonna wake up not feeling so confused
About what I got and what I'm trying not to lose
Don't you think about anything that might make you miss
That ray of light, something that might drag you down
If I could give you just a blue sky, get you out of the dark
Cause you've been going round in circles and you never stop
To look around
You're losing out on the best part
I find myself turning the other way when I don't understand
I can't help feeling I'm the one to blame for all your pain
This is our time to fly
And I don't want to leave you behind
It should be you and I on the same side
You don't know what you have til the moment has gone
Catch it while you can cause this ride won't last very long
You look so bright
You look so bright through my eyes
I want you to know your place is here with me
If that's what you want
This is our time to fly
And I don't want to leave you behind
It should be you and I on the same side
Have I got you too close?
Do you really want to let go?
Cause I love you more than you'll ever know
But if it's hurting you, what can I do?
From now on this is our time to fly
And I don't want to leave you behind
It should be you and I on the same side
This is our chance to try
Both of us under one sky
It should be you and I on the same side
It's like a playground
Sinking in, we're a couple of kids
Exchanging grins, your attention seems to be on me
Or at least that's what I'm imagining
You got me chasing a tail, got me singing your tune
And I'm over the moon, I'm smiling on the inside
Acting like a fool
I'm starting to wise up
I can't pretend that what you're giving me, giving me is enough
I have been waiting, been waiting
Cause you know how I feel about you
This is a game that you're playing and I'm not going to lose
I have been trying, been trying
For more than a one way thing
But after all this time you're still not mine and it's finally sinking in
Sinking in
I gave it my best shot, for the right man
I got the wrong idea cause I'm not really part of your plan
So what am I still doing here?
It's not like a playground, we're not a couple of kids
All of this is supposed to bring me happiness
Well that's not what this is
I'm starting to wake up
I can't pretend that what you're giving me, giving me is enough
I have been waiting, been waiting
Cause you know how I feel about you
This is a game that you're playing and I'm not going to lose
I have been trying, been trying
For more than a one way thing
But after all this time you're still not mine and it's finally sinking in
Sinking in
The only way to win, is not to play
So I'll just slip away
I bet you don't even notice anyway
I have been waiting, been waiting
Cause you know how I feel about you
This is a game that you're playing and I'm not going to lose
I have been trying, been trying
For more than a one way thing
But after all this time you're still not mine and it's finally sinking in
Sinking in
Seasons change and there they go
It's not over, give me hope
It don't seem like it was before
It's time I told you that I need more
Today the wine is not sweet enough
And there's no flavor to your vintage love
You don't give me the words I want to hear
If you want me to stay baby make it clear
You're not showing me love like you did last year
Like you did last year
Chase the moon across my sky
Save the picture of you and I
Lovers race, was won too soon
Looks like you've given up and running out
And I won't wait for you
The stars ain't shining bright enough
And venus doesn't seem to favor us
You don't give me the words I want to hear
If you want me to stay baby make it clear
You're not showing me love like you did last year
Like you did last year
Just come here and we'll talk all about it
Well it's much too precious to lose so easily
Just go back to where we used to be
Give me the words I want to hear
If you want me to stay baby make it clear
You're not showing me love like you did last year
Like you did last year
Woah... mm mmm
Its not every day you wake up
And admit who you really are
Most days its easier to shut yourself up
And never look that far
This is me, I'm covered
What I hid behind the door
And everything she says angers
I'm apologizing for
[Chorus:]
Do you see her when you see me?
Understand her insecurities?
And accept the part she plays in me?
Could you love her....like you love me?
Like you love me
Ohh, like you love me
Woahhh....
Id rather be who you think I am
See myself through your eyes
Cos the mirror you use cant be too harsh
And I want it to tell me lies
So today I'll be brave and I'll face myself
Show you who I really am
Cos wherever I go she follows me
can you reach out for her hand?
[Chorus:]
Do you see her when you see me?
Understand her insecurities?
Ohh, And accept the part she plays in me?
Could you love her....like you love me?
I'm not perfect but I try to be
Oh, could you really have the hold in me
Sometimes what you get isn't what you see
Could you believe in her, like you believe in me?
Ohhh.....hey hey, yeh yeh...ohh woah..
Mmm...do you love her, woah...
Do you see her when you see me?
Understand her insecurities
Ohh, And accept the part she plays in me?
Could you love her...woah
Do you see her when you see me
Understand her insecurities
Ohh, and accept the part she plays in me
Could you love her.........like you love me?
Like you love me
Ohh...like you love me
Woah, like you....love me....
And each time I run when I should walk
Diving too deep when I can't swim
Always asking what could have been
I held my heart out in my hands
And you pull me down each time I stand
And I've tried to fly away from you
I'd rather be alone than love you like I do
And so they say that time's a healer
Maybe it's about time that I start
But I've found time don't make it any easier
The longer we're apart
Why is every body always more afraid to live than die
They seem to have the strength to fail but not the will to try
I've never been like this and I'm not about to start
The part of me I miss I'll find now that we're apart
I'm going down this road once more
And each time I run when I should walk
When you reach the end just start again
Never look back at what could have been
And now I know that time's a healer
Maybe it's about time that I start
But I've found time it don't make it any easier
The longer the longer we're apart
Oh baby wont you sing it to me
Oh the longer baby
Oh oh yeah
Armed with an arrow you're pointing it straight at my heart,
Watching me break as I try to find my way out of the dark,
They say each moment comes to an end
So my pain is its consequence,
It's a battle and I have no defence.
Sure as you said that you loved me you turned me away,
Suddenly everything changed right in front of my face,
They say sometimes loves just unfair
But why's it always at my expense?
I've no answers and I have no defence.
I guess I'll never understand
How love can come and go,
Looking through the broken glass now I know,
But even though my bitter doubt lets my lonliness show,
I'll get over you, over you in the end.
I wish that I had the courage to leave you behind,
Cause you are the one that I'll love for the rest of my life,
They say someday I'll trust again
But it makes no difference,
Cause it's a battle and I have no defence.
No, no, no
It's a battle and I have no
No defence
You wear it like a coat of amour,
You closed your eyes and chose your battleground,
And there's no way through you
Cause I'm still over here and you're still over there.
You're pulling me to you, where you wanna be...
[Chorus:]
You're twisting the chain
And I'm right there with you, I can match your pain,
You're twisting the chain
Do I run back to you or run away again?
You think it doesn't matter,
You're gonna hurt yourself before I do,
You're aiming at me, I'll throw it back to you
And I feel I'm losing
Cause I'm still over here and you're still over there.
[Repeat Bridge and Chorus]
What ever you think, what ever you say...
Nothing you do could ever push me away [x2]
I'm trying hard to break down the walls
You never let me get to the core
You know I'm not the enemy
So take these chains away from me...
[Chorus]
We can go backwards, and no corners have been turned
I can't control it, if I sink or if I swim
'Cause I chose the waters that I'm in
And it makes no difference who is right or wrong
I deserve much more than this
'Cause there's only one thing I want
[Chorus]
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You were willing but unable to give me anymore
There's no way,
You're changing,
Cause some things will just never be mine,
You're not in love this time...but it's alright.
I hear you talking, but your words don't mean a thing
I doubt you ever put your heart into anything
It's not much to ask for, to get back what I put in
But I chose the waters that I'm in
And it makes no difference who is right or wrong
I deserve much more than this
'Cause there's only one thing I want
[Chorus]
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You were willing but unable to give me anymore
There's no way,
You're changing,
Cause some things will just never be mine
You're not in love this time...but it's alright.
What's your definition of the one?
What do you really want him to become?
No matter what I sacrifice it's still never enough.
Just like I predicted
I will sink before I swim
'Cause these are the waters that I'm in
[Chorus]
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You were willing, but unable to give me anymore
There's no way,
You're changing,
'Cause some things will just never be mine
You're not in love this time.
Oh, if it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You were willing, but unable to give me anymore
There's no way,
You're changing,
'Cause some things will just never be mine
You're not in love this time
You're not in love this time
You're not in love this time...
Without you, I have room to breathe
And if I'm weak then you can't see my insecurities
Without you, I can do what I choose
Cause when you got no one to love you got nothing to lose
Will there come a time when my head finds it easier to not think about this
And I would do any thing to stop the weight of my heart getting heavier
My only conclusion is
That nothing compares to you
No matter where I look
No matter what I do
Cause that garden of Eden you took me to
Is now over grown
And the love I've known is gone without you
Is gone without you
Without you, I can kid myself
That my idea of perfect love is not a fairytale
Without you, I don't need to explain
There's no one to answer to and I got no one to blame
I can do my thing, cause who cares what tomorrow brings
When you got nothing to miss
And every time I hide in the arms of another I realise
It still comes to this
That nothing compares to you
No matter where I look
No matter what I do
Cause that garden of Eden you took me to
Is now over grown
And the love iv known
Is gone without you
What is the flower that never blooms
What's the night sky without its moon
If I'm the music you're the tune
Don't hear a sound here without you
Cause nothing compares to you
No matter where I look
No matter what I do
Cause that garden of Eden you took me to
Is now over grown
Cause nothing compares to you
No matter where I look
No matter what I do
Cause that garden of Eden you took me to
Is now over grown
And the love I've known
Is gone without you
Is gone without you
Is gone without you
The love I've known is gone without you
I don't know which ways up
All I ask of you is to stay on your feet
That should be enough
If we stand around it could pass us by
We could give up now, and never even try
[Chorus]
To breathe in life and breathe out
Like tomorrow is today
Breathe in life and breathe out
It's not so long to wait
Breathe in life and breathe out
Wipe the dust from your sweet smile
An breathe in life
I just want something real I can hold onto
I believe its near
Life's too short to never know the truth
Maybe it's already hear
We could throw ourselves into the fire
We could give up now and never even try
[Chorus]
To breathe in life and breathe out
Like tomorrow is today
Breathe in life and breathe out
It's not so long to wait
Breathe in life and breathe out
Wipe the dust from your sweet smile
And breathe in life.
[Bridge]
We're chasing something we've dreamed of
(is not always out of reach)
It's never far away from us
('cause I believe that)
[Chorus]
To breathe in life and breathe out
Like tomorrow is today
Breathe in life and breathe out
It's not so long to wait
Breathe in life and breathe out
Wipe the dust from your sweet smile
An breathe in life
Breathe in life and breathe out
Ooh, ooh, no, yeah, yeah yeah
Breathe in life and breathe out
And it's not so long to wait
Breathe in life and breathe out
Wipe the dust from your sweet smile
An breathe in life
Ooh, ohh, no, oh, ooh ohh
And breathe in life
Ooh, oh
And breathe in life.
