Violet Morning
The city is calling
I climb out to reach you
And slip through the grains of sand
A sense of direction
Is what I need right now
Cause I saw the warning signs
And I saw us breaking down
Well baby I want you
So come on and lay me down
Chorus
Lend me your heart
And I’ll listen in
Show me your soul
Cause I want it all
You led me to water
But you led me down the garden path
And I came to realise, honey
That some things are made to last
So climb down the mountainside
It’s a stunning day in paradise
And baby I want you
So come on and lay me down
Chorus
Light me up a match
And let’s start a fire
We’ll hit the ground running and burn it to the wire
Show me all your colours now
And where you wanna go
Cause I been out here
In the rain, hail, and snow
Let’s fly away x 4

When You Come Round
03:25
|
|||
|
When you come round
I’ll be here waiting up for you
Unlock the front door
And just walk right in
The things that come between us
Well, don’t let them in
Cause something is on your mind now
And I’m wondering
Well tell me a story
Something warm and true
Sing me a song love
Something that I’d listen to
And hold on to this
Like I wanted you to do
Well tell me your secrets
And I’ll tell you mine
Chorus
There’s a hole in the world
And we are just spinning through it
Hold it together, cause baby it’s just me and you
Well I got a picture
Of you in in my head
Your light it shines so brightly
You’re one of a kind
It’s all or nothing baby
Love is not blind
Lets paint in gold and silver
Let our love shine
Chorus

Run Away With Me
03:46
|
|||
|
Pack all your things
We’re moving away
And tell all your friends
That you’ll meet again
Cause I’m worn out here
And these all four walls have got nothing on me
Chorus
How many roads
Must we turn?
So come on my darling
And just run away, run away with me
come on my darling
And just run away, run away with me
Well, I saw you there
In the corner store
And I was so blinded
My heart could not stop
And the photos of you
Now that’s all I got
And I’m only one man
But I’m ready for your heart
Chorus
All the time it takes to learn
All the time it takes, it hurts
Chorus
Raise the white flag
And start again
In a bed of roses
Now I’m falling in
Time is going by like a hurricane
Soon we’ll be old
And wanna live again

Ghost Cars
03:38
|
|||
|
Ghost cars on the highway at dawn
Lookin’ like clowns on the boulevard
Women on the streets
And they’re looking for the potion
People come and people go
Live and let live that’s the way it’s told
But someone told me I should forget about ya
Chorus
Well I’ve been looking all around this town
Searching high, searching low underground
Something lost but something can be found
In the morning I will come back down
Wake up kid it’s another day
Someone else will come your way
Spread your wings and ride on the rollercoaster
Drive your car on the streets that kill
Monkey on my back trying to shake him off
Same day everyday but different meanings
Chorus x2

Find A Way
03:18
|
|||
|
I find my way
Through an open door
The look upon your face
Well that just said it all
Well I found you
Just standing there
In the pouring rain
And you were looking at my face
You said don’t you wanna find a way?
Well I know you like the back of my hand
And I could hear you call
Yeah you were knocking at my door
Well I’ve been trying just make this work
And we could have it all
Baby how much do you want?
Well don’t you wanna find a way?
And baby don’t you cry every single night
Cause I’ll be by your side
From here on in
Well here we go
Back into the unknown
And I can feel it in my bones
Yeah I’ve been feeling so alone
And you’ve been gone
For the longest time
Well darling don’t you know?
That I've been waiting for your call
Well don't you wanna find a way?

Avalanche
03:44
|
|||
|
Yeah we’ve been going through it
Night and day my love
You push me up against the wall
I’m thinking it’s an avalanche
Well here we go…
You let me up for air
And tell me it’s time
And you wanna let, let me go
Na na na na na
Yeah I’m worn out baby
Can you understand the way it goes?
You found my heart, take my love
And you wanna wear me down
Chorus
Well some people can work it out
And some people just stay in the mold
Another day has come and gone
I’m trying to find my way back home
Na na na na na
Well when you called I was lost
And I was on my way, way back down
Now you wanna talk, talk, talk it out
But I am better now
That’s the way it goes
Na na na na na

Words

Light my flame
And take me to water
Fly like a bird
And soar like an eagle
Flying over water
Moving through the darkness
Swinging on a pendulum
Oh you caught my spark
With your words now honey
Words now honey, words now honey yeah!
Yeah it’s been a long time
And we were so candid
Push through the mortar
And find all them words now honey
All them words now honey, words now honey yeah!
Light me up a candle and hold it bright
Would you let me hold you?
You invited me, I’m by myself, I’m trying
Would you let me drown?
With your words now honey
Words like lightning
Would you make me, make me cry?
Cause your words now honey
Words now honey
Words now honey
Are in my mind…

Caroline
04:09
|
|||
|
I was on the train and stuck at the station Caroline
You found me at the waters edge my dear didn’t you?
Slight of hand
Let’s face truth
We were coming down
And I was so brave when I met you, what a lie…
I close my eyes and think of you
In the summer time
Now and the we broke the rules
We were getting by
Chorus
Oh, you don’t know what it's like
To be free and lonely too
Oh you don’t know what it’s like
To be hand in hand with you
Driving down these worn out streets my dear
I can see you smile
And I would do anything for you... don’t you know?
And we would walk around with our worn out shoes
We’d be singing out
You saw me at my best and worst... Caroline
Chorus
(Oh you knew all the things I didn’t)

Don't Look Back
03:40
|
|||
|
The sun is shining in front of you
You keep me up all night that’s what you do
Don’t you ever look back
Well somebody dreams of having you
Well get it together and speak the truth
Girl don’t ever feel bad
Chorus
Cause it’s true, what ever you do, you don’t look back
Well I’ve been round here watching planes
I’ll buy my illusions chasing dreams
Don’t you ever back down
And I’ve seen people lose their things
And start all over and chase their dreams
Oh you wouldn’t read about it
And some are lost and some are found
I’ll tip my hat and I'll hit the ground
They become like satellites
Chorus x2
In the corners of my mind
Sometimes I feel paralyzed
A distant angel comes to sing….. yeah!
Chorus x 4

Put Your Red Shoes On
04:30
|

|
We’re gonna go out tonight
We’re gonna get wild
We’re gonna go out tonight
We’re gonna get wild, ah ha
Put your red shoes on
And your white dress
We’re gonna go out
I’m trying to do the best I can
Walk into this place
Walk into this place
Climb up on those stairs
Climb up on those stairs, baby
Now shake this persons hand
Shake that persons hand
I don’t want to stand in that line again
Anytime, anytime, anytime, you want
Anytime, anytime, anytime, you want, baby
Grab that whisky off the shelf
I don’t wanna complain tonight
Now you gotta get outta here
I don’t wanna see your face anymore
I don’t wanna go that route no more
Ok baby, come back now, I don’t wanna fight no more x2
You don’t wanna fight, that’s what you're telling me
I don’t think you’ll ever know
Ok babe, we’re going now, jump in the car again
Driving down that road
Okay, make a left turn
Okay, open up the door now
Take your white dress off
Put your red shoes on the ground
It’s over now
It’s over now
Go back to sleep my love
