Love's Executioner
04:22
|
|||
Ooh, here we go again / another love's end
and you break not to bend
I know you felt it wrong / but it can fool you
it's gone on too long
if you wanted / you could stop it
if you wanted / you could stop it
and you know that voice inside / it's love's executioner
tells you that you are wasting your time / it's love's executioner
don't deserve to be happy in life / it's love's executioner
and its words have invaded your mind
but love's executioner lies
if you could let love lead / dare courageously
who knows what could be
I know you're scared by this / I know you feel it
nothing comes without risk
if you wanted / you could stop it
if you wanted / you could stop it
and you know that voice inside / it's love's executioner
tells you that you are wasting your time / it's love's executioner
don't deserve to be happy in life / it's love's executioner
and its words have invade your mind
but love's executioner lies

Downhill
03:41
|

Do you remember the days, we'd go to Downhill Beach in May
we all said the wind would cut you in two, on the sunniest days
And we'd walk along, our feet in the tide
and stop to admire the temple above
and we'd run sometimes into the water
tears in our eyes from the sting and the cold
Is that the beach that I was standing on
when you told us that you couldn't carry on
wish the wind would blow me away
one too many lies and broken hearts behind
leaving us standing
feet in the water on Downhill Strand
Like the cliffside above us, like secrets buried in the sand
you can't see what's in front of your face
or the treasures you hold in your hand
And we'd walk along, our feet in the tide
and stop to admire the temple above
and we'd run sometimes into the water
tears in our eyes from the sting and the cold
Is that the beach that I was standing on
when you told us that you couldn't carry on
wish the wind would blow me away
one too many lies and broken hearts behind
leaving us standing
feet in the water on Downhill Strand
Downhill / Downhill / Downhill / Downhill
Downhill / Downhill / Downhill / Downhill
Is that the beach that I was standing on
when you told us that you couldn't carry on
wish the wind would blow me away
one too many lies and broken hearts behind
leaving us standing
feet in the water on Downhill
leaving us standing on Downhill
feet in the water on Downhill Strand

Oh Tonight
04:19
|
|||
When we landed that night we were miles from the sea
and Paris was burning extravegently
I couldn't just stand there patiently
everyone wondering when it could be
Oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight
The news these days comes thick and fast
and opens up wounds best left in the past
the cynical said it would never last
but she would've said you can't think like that
Oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight
And oh, while we were far away
a moment in time got stuck that way
as we were divided may we unite
to put out the darkness and bring the light
Oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight
You must know there's no excuse
no mealy-mouthed apologies you can use
when a life can be lost in the blink of an eye
when you put a gun in the hands of a child
Oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight
And oh, while we were far away
a moment in time got stuck that way
as we were divided may we unite
to put out the darkness and bring the light
Oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight
Oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight / oh tonight

Cross The Sea
04:48
|
|||
Cross the sea, cross the sea, our hearts draw us near
broken as they are, we still hold them dear
forgive us, forgive us, for we couldn't face
the thought of a goodbye, a final embrace
So we ate our meals backwards and we slept in the day
drawn closer together and further away
on the tip of our tongues, the words left to say
why can't you stay, why can't you stay
why can't you stay, why can't you stay
There's a picture of wildflowers hangs on the wall
and a rose that our mother she loved most of all
knowing the simplest moments make art
you captured the city you held in your heart
So we ate our meals backwards and we slept in the day
drawn closer together and further away
on the tip of our tongues, the words left to say
why can't you stay, why can't you stay
why can't you stay, why can't you stay
To see you, to see you, but you weren't there
and a sorrow to face that was something to bear
but that just began what we carry each day
the mark that you left when you went away
So we ate our meals backwards and we slept in the day
drawn closer together and further away
on the tip of our tongues, the words left to say
why can't you stay, why can't you stay
why can't you stay, why can't you stay

Beautiful End
03:20
|
|||
Write me a postcard or sing me a song
tell me you'll see me before it's too long
memories needn't be melancholy
with you on a mountain and me by the sea
I'll bring you rocks from the beaches I walk
and you'll bring me stones from the mountains you roam
and soon I'll be back in your sweet arms again
missing you has such a beautiful end
I stood on the rocks and looked out to the sea
the whole world before you impossibly big
not all those who wonder you once said to me
are lost you know some of them, they are just free
I'll bring you rocks from the beaches I walk
and you'll bring me stones from the mountains you roam
and soon I'll be back in your sweet arms again
missing you has such a beautiful end
I'll bring you rocks from the beaches I walk
and you'll bring me stones from the mountains you roam
and soon I'll be back in your sweet arms again
missing you has such a beautiful end

Solstice
03:55
|
|||
Shortest day, the longest night
another year of our lives
making hay and killing time
still the earth remembered me
held me so tenderly
kept me here where I can breathe
You can't keep an old dog down
and I'm tired from my roots to my crown
wearing out your welcome with that voice in my head
going over and over the things that said
time to let go now, out with the old now
best to be careful what you put to seed
you get what you ask for and not what you need
at the turning of the year, loss will remain
make a wish to leave it here
You can't keep an old dog down
and I'm tired from my roots to my crown
wearing out your welcome with that voice in my head
going over and over the things that said
time to let go now, out with the old now
best to be careful what you put to seed
you get what you ask for and not what you need
worn down but not out
this world's a flame now
putting out fires is wearing on me
burning so others have light left to see

Raise A Glass
03:41
|
|||
I bid farewell to my old friend
it is not fond I won't pretend
you made your bed
you wrote this end it's true
So raise a glass to the past, raise a glass to the old days
even though those days are gone the painful memories linger on it's true
raise a glass that's what you know how to do
raise a glass to that stranger the truth
I might've been the one to go but you're the fool who made it so it's true
My tears now dry no answer why with bridges burned we needn't try
so now an overdue goodbye to you
lord knows I tried to get it right but underneath it all was lies
and still you will not realise it's you
So raise a glass to the past, raise a glass to the old days
even though those days are gone the painful memories linger on it's true
raise a glass that's what you know how to do
raise a glass to that stranger the truth
I might've been the one to go but you're the fool who made it so it's true

Sound Goes
06:36
|
|||
Sound goes where the river flows
it will carry my voice to you
where the land meets the sea, there the sound will be
I will meet you in the echo
Secrets make their way across the lake
in sunset cools, my words will find you
Sound goes where the river flows
it will carry my voice to you
where the land meets the sea, there the sound will be
I will meet you in the echo
Sound goes where the river flows
I will wait for the waves to propagate
Doubtful Sound, where the the waves have run aground
Sound goes where the river flows
it will carry my voice to you
where the land meets the sea, there the sound will be
I will meet you in the echo
Sound goes where the river flows

Gather
02:24
|
|||
Darling child, I know you've been lonely
all this time apart has shown me
Together we are strong
never be alone
gather you up
and together we'll carry you home
Even when I'm lost
I know where home is
It's in the shelter of each other that we live
Meet us there, I'll be down by the sea
we'll linger on as the light fades slowly
Together we are strong
never be alone
gather you up
and together we'll carry you home
Even when I'm lost
I know where home is
It's in the shelter of each other that we live
It's in the shelter of each other that we live
