I Don't Know

I walk along a road
It's cold outside I'm on my own
Someone tells me go
Who is this stranger in the road?
I don't know
Is it an illusion?
Can I believe what I feel what I can’t see
Or is it self delusion
All any of us have is a tiny voice
Saying believe what you can’t see
I don’t know what keeps the stars up in the sky
And I don’t know what keeps me down here below
And I don’t know much about this life
But I know if I’m gonna be free
Gotta find all I can about me
Gotta close my eyes and believe
What I don’t know
I’m trying to let go
Surrendering to the mystery
And I’m trusting time will show
Cos I’m walking with my eyes half closed
I’m blind but I’m unafraid
Oh I don’t know if gods control my fate
Or if a hurricane is caused by a butterfly
No I don’t know much about this life
But I know if I’m gonna be free
Gotta find all I can about me
Gotta shut my mouth and believe
What I don’t know
Like a cloud in a clear blue sky
Like a tear in a lover’s eye
Life is telling me that I
I don’t know

Hello You

Hello you, hello love, where have you been hiding?
Come in, come home, pull up a chair
Breathe in, breathe out, no past, no future,
Oo the peace inside, where have you been all my life? Love
Right around the corner, love
Could be waiting for ya, love
Right around the corner, love
Love could be waiting for ya
Tearful, fearful, heavy and blessed
Time will show us where we can rest
Broken, open, hopeful and lost
Seems that love always knew where I was, love
Right around the corner, love
Could be waiting for ya, love
Right around the corner, love
Love could be waiting for ya

Oh My God
03:31

You came to my window, on a wild and stormy night
I was not looking for you, but there you were
Like a bird singing, oh the sweetest, sweetest song
Now my heart's spinning, no doubt in my mind where you belong
Now I'm asking Oh My God
Now I'm praying Oh My God
Now I'm crying Oh My God
Now I'm singing, Oh My God
It's a lot to handle
It's a rare and precious gift
You came out of nowhere and covered me with light
There's no explanation, cos you have silenced me with love
There's only exaltation and asking for some answers from above
Now I'm asking Oh My God
Now I'm praying Oh My God
Now I'm crying Oh My God
Now I'm singing, Oh My God
Oh my, oh my God
Like a bird singing, oh the sweetest, sweetest song
Now my heart's spinning, I know deep in my heart where you belong
Now I'm asking Oh My God
Now I'm praying Oh My God
Now I'm crying Oh My God
Now I'm singing, Oh My God

I Saw a Light
03:26
|

I saw a light, out in the night
Far on a distant shore
I saw a child, deep in your eye
And he threw open the door
And I saw miles and miles of honey skies bathed in a flame
And I heard skies and skies of butterflies, calling your name
And I felt arms and arms of 'stay a while'
Lay down beside me here
And let me soothe you dear
And in my darkest fear
I saw a light
I saw a light, deep in your eye
Fighting to burn for you
Fighting the fight, knowing it's right
Cold while the ice-wind blew
And it took hours and hours of alibis to play with your light
Lies and lies and lullabies, sung in the night
Until you stood before me crucified
This is my gift to you
This is my gift for me
When I looked carefully
I saw a light

Wrong But It's Right
03:15

|
Sometimes, I don't know what you look like
I can't remember your smile
And though I know, it isn't so
I start to doubt, you're really there at all
Sometimes, it's never never land before me
And any moment I'll wake
And not recall, and lose it all
You never were, really there at all
Laugh at me, point at me
Cos I know, I know I make you nervous
Scorn me but just don't pity me
Cos I know, I know it's wrong but it's right
Sometimes, I close my eyes to see right
And suddenly I'm in light
And now I know, it isn't so
You never were, really there at all
Laugh at me, point at me
Cos I know, I know I make you nervous
Scorn me but just don't pity me
Cos I know, I know it's wrong but it's right
Don't wake me, please don't wake me
Don't make me, please don't make me stop
Cos you know I've got my hands up
I know, I know it's wrong, but it's right
Laugh at me, point at me
Cos I know, I know I make you nervous
Scorn me but just don't pity me
Cos I know, I know it's wrong but it's right

The Guy I Love
03:08

Goodbye little cloud,
I'm blowing you away to outer space
You've been following my love around
And I wanna see the smile back on his face
Goodbye little tear
Thank you but we've really cried enough
Sorry you're not needed here
I've got everything I need to give my love
Gonna paint the perfect sky
And sprinkle it with all the stars above
And find out to fly
To heaven with the guy I love
Goodbye little fear
I'm wishing you far from this heart of mine
You can whisper in my ear
And I'd listen if I only had the time
Gotta paint the perfect sky
And sprinkle it with all the stars above
And find out to fly
To heaven with the guy I love
No I'm not hiding from a cloud
Or a tear or a fear
Cos you're not stop my trying to build
Heaven with the guy I love
Gonna paint the perfect sky
And sprinkle it with all the stars above
And find out to fly
To heaven with the guy I love

Truth Tree
03:36

It felt like coming home
Yes it felt like coming home
When I looked into your eyes for the first time
It feels like letting go
Yes it feels like letting go
When I look into your eyes
I lose my mind
Take me to a truth tree
And tell me anything, tell me anything
I will believe
Tell me anything at all
And when we sang our song
All the people sang a long
And they looked into our eyes
And they knew everything
Did we touch the Polizei
Yes I think I saw a tear
When I looked into her eyes
I know she felt it too
Take me to a truth tree
And tell me anything, tell me anything
I will believe
Tell me anything at all

Like Gold

Hello my bird of paradise
It's too late to apologise
I saw the bullet in your wing and took it out
Hello looks like I've made a new friend
From Rumplestiltskin's golden thread
We wove our tears and made them gold
I'll be your friend when you are old
And we hold
Our hearts
Like Gold
I know you're just a dream I had
And you made me in your science lab
One day I'd like to see if life can mimic art.
Hello is this the place that we pay
For dreams that just won't go away
And will we pay 'til we are old
Cos there are hearts that can't be sold
And we hold
Those hearts
Like Gold
We made gold so we can never be gold anymore
We made gold so we can never be gold anymore
But thank you, thank you for treating my heart
Like gold

Soul Cocaine
03:50

Baby if I touch you would I lose my senses again
Baby if I kiss your mouth, could it cause a lifetime of pain
But only if I could though, get a little soul cocaine
I know I've got to give you up
But I've got something to say
Baby can you cure me, with your beautiful love
Baby can you cure me, of your beautiful love
Tell me how to score it, oh your beautiful love
Cos I know I've got to get it again
Get a little soul cocaine
Take me out of this place, take me somewhere miles from here
Take me up to outer space, far away from all of this fear
Or let's go back to your place, anywhere as long as you're near
Somewhere I can breathe you in, Let me whisper this in your ear
Baby can you cure me, with your beautiful love
Baby can you cure me, of your beautiful love
Tell me how to score it, oh your beautiful love
Cos I know I've got to get it again
Get a little soul cocaine
Oh baby I know I've got to get it again
Get a little soul cocaine
I know I've got to give you up
Cos all my friends keep telling me
That I've got to break this drug
But I don't care what they say
If you say we'll be okay
Cure me
Cure me
Won't you tell me how I can score it, oh your beautiful love
Cos I know I've got to get it again
Get a little soul cocaine
Oh baby I know I've got to get it again
Get a little soul cocaine

For Letting Go
03:13
|

|
This isn't the time for my derision
And I don't need, your decision
You cut out my heart with great precision
Whenever you calmly state your position
But I know fear
Is the reason we are standing here
Believe me time will tell us when we should be ready
For letting go
Are you for real my sweet illusion?
I've always been very good at self delusion
You're painting with words but you can't prove them
You're kissing my tears away, you'll never soothe them
Cos I know fear
Is the reason we are standing here
Believe me time will tell us when we should be ready
For letting go
Close your eyes
For letting go

In a Moment
02:38

In a moment
Life has changed
Turned a corner, turned a page
All the heavens rearranged
I could the perfect sky
As I kiss my heart goodbye
In a moment
Shadows fade
And I'm blinded by your light
New perspective, ancient gaze
Someone's smiling from above
As we wonder at our love
In a moment
Of coldness
I could break a frightened heart
Judge and jury as I hurt him
Leave him trembling in the dark
In a moment
It could snow
Underneath the grass will grow

Wonder
06:02
|

|
You are a lesson to my heart
You make me walk the high wire with no safety
Defy, rebel, with you I'm tempting fate
Oo and now we're dancing
Is it hot in here?
You're spinning me around, daring me to trust you
Then you throw up the lights and you say
Open up your eyes
And live your life in wonder
It will not disappoint you
Surrender to the wonder
And heaven will anoint you
Just wait and see
You are the rhythm of my heart
You're beating in me
You're filling up the room with dust
Playing on that old settee, tell me can you see
Your mother's eyes, all the love in her eyes
She says it's okay my dear
You can open up your eyes
And live your life in wonder
It will not disappoint you
Surrender to the wonder
And heaven will anoint you
Just wait and see
Now it's six year old me and I'm sitting in the back seat
But we're not there yet
Are we nearly there yet?
Are we nearly there yet?
And when we get there what will I see?
Will I see god's beauty, blessing me?
Listen to your heart beat
Surrender and listen to your heart beat
Surrender, surrender
Surrender to the wonder
And heaven will anoint you
Just live your life in wonder
It will not disappoint you
Surrender to the wonder
And heaven will anoint you
Just wait and see
Wait and see
Listen to your heartbeat
