I can almost read your mind,
It's running fast, out of control
you're afraid of what you'll find
if you get too close
you imagine I don't care
you see walls that just aren't there
you think I'm too strong to let you in
well that's just not fair

Chorus:
I'm not so tough, I 'll call your bluff
and let you see a side of me
that wants you here and cries real tears
and needs someone to love
I'm not so tough

I know that you've been hurt before
well so have I what can you do
that doesn't mean you close the door
so stop blamin' me, I don't blame you
I'm not some ghost from your past
the one who tore your heart in half
I'm not her, it's not my fault you're holding on to that

Chorus

Day one God smiled,
Gave us all the wisdom of a newborn child
But by the time we take our first step
We've already begun to forget
What the heart knows the heart sees
We're just as much the forest, as we are the trees
Every little seed trying to find
Where the light comes from

Chorus:

And it's a world of hurt, nothing works
It's a lonely little planet made of dust and dirt
Who'd ever think that in the midst of all this
Something as beautiful as love exists
And when I hold you, and you hold me
Heaven doesn't seem like such a mystery
Darling in a world of hurt
You make me feel so good

Day one of our love,
Two heartbroken people scared to trust too much
Oh but here it comes that feelin' again
That every lover swears will never end
We thought we'd been there, done that,
But when we kissed
We knew we'd never been here..
We've never done this
All the walls come tumblin' down
When you love someone

Repeat chorus

If I were a ghost I'd haunt your house
Hang out in your rafters
You could be my mister Adams
I could be your Casper
I'd shake with you my afterlife of the unexplained
Walk through your walls let you rattle my chains
Yes I would

And if I were a snake I'd be a constrictor
Slicker than oil
I'd entice you with my slither wrap you in my coils
You could tie me in a thousand knots
And just watch me unfold
Hypnotize you with my stare swallow you whole
Think about it

Chorus:

Welcome to my world of make believe
Check your reality at the door
Within my wishes and my wildest dreams
If I could be anything
Well baby, I'd be yours

And if I were a bird I'd be an owl
Wise beyond my years
Watch over you each night, calm you of your fears
You could set my head to spinnin'
With those little things you do
Like sayin' it was me you loved
When I asked you "who"

Repeat chorus

The silence that's fallen between us,
is the lonelyest sound that i've heard,
how can we find forgiveness,
if we can't find the words.

(Chorus: )
When we don't talk,
when we don't speak,
when we don't share all the feelings,
that are buried so deep,
how can we know,
what's hidden behind these walls?
when the door's locked.

When we lose touch
when you and i lose sight of us
the honesty's lost
and the tears say it all
we don't talk

When so much goes unspoken
and sorry is left unsaid
the silence remains unbroken
and our hearts are breaking instead

(Chorus)

I'm making flowers out of paper
While darkness takes the afternoon
I know that they won't last forever
But real ones fade away to soon

Chorus:
I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you're allright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry

It's just that I recall september
It's just that I still hear your song
It's just I can't seem to remember
Forever more those days are gone

Chorus:
I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you're allright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry

I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you're allright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry

(Him) We couldn't decide on who was going to drive tonight,
(Him) So I guess he felt the tension from his side of this taxi-ride.
(Him) Asking us where we're headed for, and if we were both alright,
(Him) I said "just drive".

(chorus)
(Him) I... I still shine,
(Him) With every passing neon sign,
(Him) I took everything inside
(Him) I still shine

(Him) I take my coat and I go where I always go.
(Ilse) Guess that 'll pay for the ride
(Him) Right or wrong, it's the same old song cause you never try
(Ilse) Shut up, cause you never listen
(Ilse) You're selfish and conceited and man, you never compromise
(Him) Well I still shine

(Both) I... I still shine,
(Ilse) If you'd rather be alone, just take your torments and go on
(Both) I still shine

(Ilse) Shine all you want, but you don't taste like you used to.
(Him) You can cry all you want, but you don't bring me down like you used to
(Both)You never gave me credits for the things I did for you
(Ilse) I'm allright
(Him) Yeah I'm allright, yeah.

(Both) I... I still shine
(Both) With every passing neon sign,
(Both) I took everything inside
(Both) I still shine

(Him) Oh-oh-oh, I still shine
(Ilse) I still shine
(Him) I still shine
(Ilse) I still shine
(Him) I still shine

(Ilse) oh-oh-oh, I still shine
(Him) I still shine
(Ilse) I still shine
(Him) I still shine
(Ilse) I still shine

Now baby we should go back to where we started from
I know we feel the reasons, let's pick them up and run
Let's not let confusion cover up the shine
There's no use in denial, we can't reinvent this time
Look me in the eye and see my love
Take me by my hand, you'll know why
It's just me and you
There's no reason to
Be shy

We'll bring back all the colours and paint outside of your lines
Use the pieces of this picture like a poet uses rhyme
Recapture all the passion, play a lovers game
To not would be a crime, to wait would be a shame
Look me in the eye and see my love
Take me by my hand, you'll know why
It's just me and you
There's no reason to
Be shy

Let go
You will see
Follow your heart
Look me in the eye and see my love
Take me by my hand, you'll know why
It's just me and you
There's no reason to
Be shy

We know what to do
There's no reason to be shy
You don't have to be shy
No no
Shy oh

I stand still
I'm frozen
I feel no pain
My heart stops
I'm chosen and so I fade away
My arms weak with emptyness
My soul sleeps
I'm Heavenless
Heavenless

There's no sky above me
Still shadows I can see
The darkness took over and left me free
No left turn no tenderness
Hereafter Is heavenless
Heavenless

Alone I see
Is freezing me
The ice runs deep
Inside of me

The earth spins beneath me
As lifetime slips away
Each moment so quickly
Becoming yesterday
Afraid I'll die of lonelyness
I'm scared that I am Heavenless
Heavenless
Heavenless

hmmm

What if I,
could stop the wheels from turning
Stop the time,
and unwind the clock
read your mind
like a listen underneed
now wouldn't that be something
wouldn't that be something

what if I
paint the sky above
all in white
like an empty book
you and I
could be the words completly
Now wouldn't that be something
wouldn't that be something

Just for one day in my life
just for one day I would try
just for one day, if it makes a difference
Just for one hour of the day
just for minute if I may
just for one second, if it really makes a difference
Now wouldn't that be something
hmmm

What if I
could be temptation calling
hear my voice
reaching out to you
don't deny me
and just start falling
Now wouldn't that be something
wouldn't that be something

Just for one day in my life
just for one day I would try
just for one day if it makes a difference
Just for one hour of the day
just for minute if I may
just for one second if it really makes a difference

I can give you reasons why
this sounds so good
if you just try
just step into our world with me
then you will see

Just for one day in my life
just for one day if you try
you would see the difference
yeah

Just for one hour of the day
just for one minute if I may
just for one second if it really makes a difference

Just for one day in my life
just for one day I would try
would it really make a difference
Just for one hour of the day
just for one minute if I may
just for one second if it really makes a difference
Now wouldn't that be something

hmm
wouldn't that be something

Now wouldn't that be something...

When I call you in the morning
And tell you everything's allright
I can't see into the future
Don't see the danger in the night
When I hear the siren wailing
I see the flashing of the light
I know that there is trouble
And there are battles yet to fight
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

And there's an innerpeace I'm seeking
There's a lightness in my soul
And everytime I think I've found it
I wanna touch it, feel it, hold
And the day that I stop asking
Will be the day I say goodbye
The world may not be saver
But there's no truth without the lie
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way
No I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

I've asked the good lord Jesus
I'm asking Allah to
I tried the great god Buddah
And now I'm asking you
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

When you're deep in troubled waters
You've got to fight for every breath
And you feel you're getting weaker
You're facing life, you're facing death
And if you have a God to turn to
Oh don't turn the other way
Or a friend that you can count on
Just a prayer that you can say
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way
No I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way
No I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

Stay tonight,
Let me hold you like I never did before.
Take my arms,
And let me hold you like I never did before.
And I should have tried just to talk about this,
Waiting, ending.
I should have tried just to let you know that I'm, Still here,
So before you let me go...

Take my hands,
Let me touch you like I never did before.
Take my heart and let me love you,
Like I never did before,

And I should have tried just to talk about it,
Waiting, ending.
I should have tried just to let you know,
That I'm still here.

But we waste it every time,
Now my heart is on the line,
And we see ourselves no more.
When we're closing every door,
It's so much harder than before,
So before you let me go.

Before you let me go.....

Save the dance and let me spin you,
Till your world is turning round and round,
Round and round, round and round.
Save the chance and let me show you,
Just like you need a little more,
Just like you need a little more.

And I should have tried just to talk about it,
Waiting, ending.
I should have tried just to let you know,
That I'm still here.

But we waste it every time,
Now my heart is on the line,
Until we see oursleves no more.
When we're closing every door,
It's so much harder than before,
So much harder than before.
So before you let me go...

Before you let me go...

But we waste it every time,
Now my heart is on the line,
Until we see oursleves no more.
When we're closing every door,
It's so much harder than before,
So much harder than before.

But we waste it every time,
Now my heart is on the line,
And now we bruise with every step.
When we're closing every door.
Can we make it easier.
Some time?
Some time...

When I call you in the morning
And tell you everything's allright
I can't see into the future
Don't see the danger in the night
When I hear the siren wailing
I see the flashing of the light
I know that there is trouble
And there are battles yet to fight
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

And there's an innerpeace I'm seeking
There's a lightness in my soul
And everytime I think I've found it
I wanna touch it, feel it, hold
And the day that I stop asking
Will be the day I say goodbye
The world may not be saver
But there's no truth without the lie
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way
No I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

I've asked the good lord Jesus
I'm asking Allah to
I tried the great god Buddah
And now I'm asking you
'Cause I may not have all the answers, no
I wouldn't have it any other way

You've got to fight for every breath
And you feel you're getting weaker
