1.Colourblind
Feelin' blue, while I'm trying to forget the feeling that I miss
you
Feelin' green, when the jealousy swells and it won't go away in
dreams
Feelin' yellow, I'm confused inside
A little hazy but mellow when I feel your eyes on me
Feelin' fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind
Oh oh
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
You make me colour blind
Feelin' red, when you spend all your time with your friends and
not me instead
Feelin' black, when I think about all the things that I feel I
lack
Feelin' jaded, when it's not gone right
All the colours have faded, then I feel your eyes on me
Feelin' fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind
Mm mm
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
You make me colour blind
Blinded by the light you shine, the colours fade completely
Blinded by you every time, I feel your smile defeat me
I'm colour blind
I just can't deny this feeling
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
You make me colour blind
I'm colour blind
2.Rushes
She's got a blind smile and a soft touch
A cute little dimple when she laughs too much
They say you fall hard when you meet her
Such is her allure
She's got a quick wit and a fast tongue
But she doesn't seem to know that she's the one
They say she cheats charm when she whispers
She's devilishly pure
You'd see if you knew her
She doesn't know
But its time I told her so
CHORUS
When I see your blushes
From a compliment of mine it touches
Something inside I'm getting rushes
The adrenaline rushes
And I'm fascinated
That you really don't know how to take it
When I look at you that way you feel naked
And I'm so into you
I'm getting rushes
She's about five nine
Got a sexy stride
With long tanned legs that she shouldn't hide
With a fine air of innocence
Nonchalance in every move
She's a sweet sensation tease temptation
She looks good enough to eat
She's a fallen angel with a devilish streak
And so they say
Like with like will finally meet
You'd see if you knew her
She doesn't know
But its time I told her so
CHORUS
And I like it and I want more
And I like it and I want more
And I like it and I want more
Never felt it like this before
It's more than adrenaline rushes
It's the touch and the smell of skin rushes
Some call it ”love at first sight”
I call it ”butterflies” (I call it butterflies, I call it
butterflies)
CHORUS
3.Incredible
You said its over
I said ”that's ok
I wasn1t in to you anyway”
I told you ”lately
you irritate me your laugh is too loud
you're the last girl I'd look at
if you were in a crowd”
Could you tell?
I was lying and hiding the truth away
and what I really wanted to say
CHORUS:
is you are incredible you are amazing
you blow my mind one of a kind
I'm having a meltdown
you are incredible you are amazing
but sometimes telling the truth
is easier said than done,
”don't leave baby” -
now that's what I meant to say
”My worlds not ending I'll be just fine”
That's what my mouth said
but not what I felt inside
I told you ”baby,
your not the answer to all of my prayers
cos I like my girlfriends in short skirts with longer hair”
could you tell?
I was lying and hiding the truth away
and what I really wanted to say
CHORUS
Well I said I didn't care about what you felt about me
couldn't care less about what I said or done
I didn't mean it - its not what I meant to say
you know the truth is that I care
about what you think about me
maybe too much, I've been puttin' on a front
I didn't mean it - and what I meant to say
is you are incredible you are amazing
you blow my mind one of a kind
I'm having a meltdown
you are incredible you are amazing
but sometimes telling the truth
is easier said than done, yeah yeah
telling the truth is easier said than done.
Can't you see
telling the truth is easier said than done.
”Don't leave baby” now that1s what I meant to say
4.Girl In The Moon
How can I sleep tonight?
Tell me how Mars survived
Fallen with stars -
She opened her arms...
Venus was in my sky.
How could it pass me by?
You silently served my time,
Even thru chains,
Rust and the rain -
You pulled away the tide.
chorus
Girl In The Moon,
I'm half-way there,
Girl In The Moon,
I see you everywhere...
Help me find a way of falling
Closer to you,
Girl In The Moon,
Girl In The Moon...
How could I weep tonight?
Touch and tears collide -
Gravity spins
Me into your wings,
And covers me in
your light...
Chorus
You're the silent silver
lining my cloud
You're the secret flame
That never burns out,
Pull away this veil
And rise into view
Girl in the moon...
Pull away this veil
And rise into view
Girl in the moon...
Chorus
5.I'm Not Buying
So many times we find ourselves here -
Looking just about anywhere
But in each others eyes,
I'm wondering why...
So many chances brushed then wasted,
So many matches almost won in injury time -Nobody cried...
We're kicking pieces out of each other,
Instead of kicking the pain in our hearts -
Where do we start?
Chorus
Well we can reach,
And we can climb,
And we can turn this ship around in time -
That's why I'm holding out for you
I'm not buying that it's over
You can tell me anything
But I'm not buying that it's broken.
So many fixes come too easy,
Leave us so unsatisfied -
Chasing the kite, addicted to high...
So many patches we have worn,
So many promises left still born We're so blind, we kill more
than time
Intoxicated, drowning each other -
Instead of drowning the pain in our hearts...
Where do we start?
Chorus
We'll walk with innocence
We'll leave the ignorance
We'll run together, let's break this silence...
Don't wanna fight no more,
Wanna feel the light some more,
Let's run together and break this silence...
I'm holding out for you,
Reaching out for you,
No way that this is through -
If we just If we just
We can reach, we can reach
We can reach,
And we can climb,
And we can hold on by our feelings to what is right.
I'm holding out for you,
I'm not buying that it's over,
I'm holding out for you, reaching out for you, no way that this
is through
You can tell me anything,
Sell me anything,
To hell with everything,
I'm not buying that it's over.
6.Dive In
So what's it all about?
I can't work you out...
There's a chemistry between us Getting hard to disguise -
Still you're holding back,
Some kind of panic attack -
Treading water when you
Really should be turning the tide...
Don't spend a lifetime waiting,
Don't tell me no -
Just let go...
If you want it, then you got it -
Don't let this moment pass you by,
Take a long shot,
Give it all you got -
You'll never know unless you try,
You can only sink or swim,
Baby, just dive in...
So what's the worse thing
That could be happening?
(You test the water and you
find that it's a little too hot)
But I'm imagining,
The taste of salt on your skin -
Make your move, you gotta choose - Are you ready or not?
Don't waste a lifetime waiting,
You know its now -
So turn around...
Chorus
Just dive in, just dive in...
Let's dive in -
Into the blue; Into the deep;
Into the mood tonight
Dive In...
Chorus
Come with me -
Let's dive in...
7.I Gotta Know Tonight
I feel vulnerable, I'm scared...
I hang on every word like
Like there's a hidden meaning.
It caught me unprepared...
Now I'm climbing up the wall
That stands between us.
I keep hoping it's my
imagination,
Playing tricks with my heart
On this occasion,
I've just got this sinking
feeling
So whose gonna drown
Now the dams about to break?
Tell me if it's me
I gotta know...
I'm strong enough to tell you
That it's more than I can take -
I'm just hanging by a thread,
Gotta feeling I'm in over my
head,
Can't wait until tomorrow...
Gotta know tonight.
I feel naked in your eyes
I'm so outta control feels like
I'm freewheeling
Are we running out of time?
I gotta find a way
To stop this feeling...
I keep hoping it's my
imagination,
Playing tricks with my heart
On this occasion,
I've just got this sinking
feeling
Chorus
Cos when you pull back the covers,
Its one way or the other,
Oh yeah,
It's getting closer to midnight -
I gotta go,
Can't wait until tomorrow...
I gotta know -
Chorus
8.Sliding Doors
Another Friday night,
And the week is over -
Got a bottle of wine
And a meal for one,
Never could have known
She was walkin with me in the rain.
Another back to back,
Down the escalator,
Beat the sliding doors
By a twist of fate,
Than a glance behind an
evening paper -
And there she was...
Lonely's gone -
Suddenly I got this feelin,
Lonely's gone -
I spin around,
Yeah Yeah
I've left the ground,
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Should I make a move?
Did she catch me falling?
What I got to lose?
Will she cut me dead?
Before I catch my breath,
Can't believe she's walking
Off my train...
Beat the sliding doors -
Is she gone? Don't lose her,
Gotta keep my head -
Someone taps my shoulder,
Then I spin around and
She's just smiling -
I guess she knows...
Chorus
Is this fate or happenstance?
Her design or my last chance?
I can't speak
Cos she takes my breath away...
So it's Friday night,
And the day is over,
Crack a bottle of wine,
Make a meal for two -
But there's no room on the
dining table...
Here we go, Here we go...
Chorus
9.Simple Like the Truth
I love you. You love me
But you never say that to me,
I want you. You want me
So how come I don't believe?
It's in the way you kiss my face,
And in your every move...
Won't you tell me something
Simple Like the truth -
Even if it isn't ”I love you”?
Won't you let me know your heart,
And lay me down...
Is it so hard to tell me?
”It's nothing,
Don't be stupid,”
How come you always
Say that to me?
”It's alright, take it easy,”
But easy is so hard to be...
It's in the way you
Brush me by,
The way that you make love...
Chorus
It's not that I'm weak
Baby I can't take it,
It's not that I'm blind -
I can see you fake it...
If you only knew what I'm going thru -
Then you'd find the words to whisper
Or you'd find the strength to leave...
Chorus
I watch you. You're reading
But baby you're so hard to read.
I love you. You love me
But you never say that to me...
10.Better Than That
I thought I knew you,
Better than I knew myself, girl,
I thought I found you,
Hiding in the strength that's in your eyes,
But now I see you,
Burning all the bridges in your world,
And now I feel you,
Sinking in the quicksand of your life
Can't you see that you're slipping away (Oh)
Can't you hear what I'm trying to say
(Better than that)
Chorus:
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
You're better than that
And you can turn back
(What's tried is torn)
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
I'm telling you its killing you
It's drowning you, it's spilling you over
(What's tried is torn)
I thought you knew how,
To chase away the demons of blind trust,
I thought you knew now,
It's all about temptation changed by choice,
You know you're crazy,
You're hanging on to reasons turned to rust,
Your eyes are hazy,
You've gone and lost the velvet in your voice
Can't you see that you're slipping away (Oh)
Can't you hear what I'm trying to say
(Better than that)
Chorus
I told you once, I told you twice,
I told you, baby,
Now there's nothing more to say.
I'm missing the girl I knew,
While I'm kissing the broken you,
And can't you see you'll be...
So don't back, face up to the facts
And you can turn back -
You're better than that.
Better than that, stronger than that,
Wiser than that, bigger than that
You're better than the devil in you
Tellin you how, pulling you down,
Spilling you out- but it's up to you
11.Mockingbird
He tells you when. He tells you why. He tells you wherefore.
What to do and how it's done, and how to be for him.
It's all about control. It's all about control.
You're his life. You're his strength. But he's you're weakness,
He knows you care, knows you give, but he couldn't care less.
He fits you to his mould, chipping at you soul...
Chorus
It tears me up to see the way that he treats you,
To see the way that he brings you down and down.
He's turning you inside out.
It breaks me up to see the way that you take it,
To see the way that he spins you round and round
Turning you upside down...
Mockingbird,
Mockingbird...
Afraid to leave. Afraid to lose. Afraid of living.
You turn to him. You turn to me. But it lies in you.
It's waiting to be found,
It's waiting to be found,
So feel your heart, Feel your pain, Feel your anger,
If you fight the fear, find the words, you'll find the answer.
Like a cat held upside down,
You'll land feet on the ground.
Chorus
You never know what life will bring.
Trust your spirit. Find your wings.
Find your voice and let it sing
Let it sing...
Chorus
12.Mercury Rising
Eleven days,
A dozen nights,
A thousand tears,
And you are my shoulder.
From summer's haze, on morning light,
The sun is rising...Just like I told you.
Chorus
If you fall, I'll never let your spirit break,
If you call, I'll always soothe the cries you make,
If it's all I can do, I'll slowly kiss your dreams awake
You're not alone for heaven's sake,
Mercury rising
From winter skies,
A cold embrace -
The shadows meet,
And they drag you under...
The moonlight's mine
And yours to chase -
Your star is rising,
Beyond your wonder...
Chorus
You're not alone for heaven sake
Your tears run so freely,
Your fears run so deeply down...
The pressure is breaking.
Quicksilver awaking now...
Can you feel it rise?
Can you see it rise?
Droplets of dreams
That you touched, disappear...
There's change in the weather,
And wind in your hair,
And Mercury's rising,
Mercury's rising
Rising...
Rising...
Rising...
Mercury's rising...
Eleven days,
A dozen nights,
A thousand tears...
And you are my shoulder.
From summer's haze, on morning light,
The sun is rising...
Just like I told you
