Make Some Room

One day these hands will build a home
And I know just where I'll put it
It'll go
Somewhere the old fears can't go
A place to spend my old years alone
But I guess if you said
You'd like to come along too
I'd make some room
Someday the past will loosen it's grasp on me
But till that day I'll bury all of myself away
One day these eyes will know to trust what they see
To believe the best of days are ahead, ahead of me
Somewhere in a far off dream
The place where you first met me
But I guess if you said
You'd like to dream of me too
You'd like to see all of me through
You'd like to come along too
I'd make some room

Why Weren't You Happy
02:59
|

Countdown to another evening
In total despair not that you ever cared
The reasons you committed treason
Were buried from me and I'd never see
Why weren't you happy - Didn't we try
Why weren't you happy - I can see why
Why weren't you happy - Didn't we try
Why weren't you happy - I can see why
Voices, others made your choices
Old mistakes were thrown in our face
'Goodbyes' end all the lies
But the truth always eludes
Why weren't you happy - Didn't we try
Why weren't you happy - I can see why
Why weren't you happy - Didn't we try
Why weren't you happy - I can see why
We stepped inside the movie screen
I liked what I saw but you thought differently
I guess your film doesn't star me
Why weren't you happy - Didn't we try
Why weren't you happy - I can see why
Why weren't you happy - Didn't we try
Why weren't you happy - I can see why
Why

Help My Flowers To Grow

Monday morning
The sun's been gone for two weeks
The rain is falling
But I'm fast asleep
On the surface
My hands are bare
But underneath
I'm gasping for air
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Oh please
Like a cloudburst you brightened my life
Like a rainfall you fell from the sky
The dirt feels so dry
Please help my flowers to grow
Like a cloudburst you brightened my life
Like a rainfall you fell from the sky
The dirt feels so dry
Please help my flowers to grow
I recall Spring so fair
Summer sun kissed your hair
Autumn's gone I'm left
Weathered and scared
Lost in prayer
Like a cloudburst
Like a rainfall
The dirt feels so dry
Please help my flowers
Like a cloudburst you brightened my life
Like a rainfall you fell from the sky
The dirt feels so dry
Please help my flowers to grow
Like a cloudburst you brightened my life
Like a rainfall you fell from the sky
The dirt feels so dry
Please help my flowers to grow
Like a cloudburst, oh you brightened my life
Like a rainfall, yeah you fell from the sky
Oh the dirt feels so dry
Please help my flowers to grow
Oh like a cloudburst - you saved me, you saved me
Like a rainfall

Lost In My Mind
04:00
|

Saw a tree cry today
As his friends flew away
How he'll miss them sing
Smiling he knows they'll be back
In the spring
Me, I still try to clip the wings
Of things that were meant
To fly so high
Cause I'm afraid to join them
In the sky
I can't see the signs that sing to me daily
That life is divine a time for creating
One day I will find
I've been lost in my mind
I feel a heavy heart
Thirty years waiting for life to start
Afraid of what I'd be
If I chose so I let them choose for me
But I still dream of what I'd be
Had I listened to me
And my heart from the start
My life would be a perfect
Work of art
Cause I can't see the signs that sing to me daily
That life is divine a time for creating
One day I will find
I've been lost in my mind
Fearing to fail - I know it well, I know it well
It wounds me much more than failure itself
But I still dream of what I'd be
Had I listened to me
And my heart from the start
My life the work of art
Cause I can't see the signs that sing to me daily
That life is divine a time for creating
One day I will find - one day I will find
Yeah one day I will find - one day I will find
Yeah one day I will find
I've been lost in my mind

Just Like The Sunrise
05:49
|

Will we glow if we look to each other
Like the moon on a stream
Like the wings in a dream
I'll fly away to write our story again
Whisper to me how you want it to end
And I - and I will let you see
Reveal you my soul
A story never told
To steal away my nights
Just like the sunrise
Will we hurt if we dwell on our past
Reliving yesterdays' lives
How the memories twist the knife
Truth drifts away to a far off place
Now we're left to dream of the same mistakes
Whose dream is this - everyone's dreaming
Whose dream is this - everyone's sleeping
Whose dream is this - everyone's dreaming
Whose dream is this - what am I seeing
I must be dreaming
I must be dreaming
Yeah I must be dreaming
I'll fly away to write our story again
Whisper to me how you want it to end - to end - to end
Reveal you my soul
A story never told
To steal away my nights
Just like the sunrise
Whose dream is this - just like the sunrise
Whose dream is this - just like the sunrise
Whose dream is this - everyone's dreaming
Whose dream is this - what am I seeing
I must be dreaming
I must be dreaming - I must be dreaming
I must be dreaming - I must be dreaming (please don't wake me)
I must be dreaming - I must be dreaming (please don't wake me)

When I'm Done
03:40

How long have I been asleep
What is this light that awakens me
I rub my eyes - dismiss my old thoughts
I feel old feelings I thought I'd lost
Don't show me the end
Cause I'm not ready to leave the world
But promise me this - there'll be room in Heaven
When I'm done
I see the same bird in the same old tree
I hear the same words but they sound differently
Fear's not the truth but it's what I used to choose
And yet it comforts me cause I got something to lose
Don't spoil the end
Cause I'm not ready to leave the world
But promise me this - There'll be room in Heaven
When I'm done
When I am ready
We'll have a party
God be so heady
Yeah!
How could I hate where I've been
When I feel beauty where I am
Where have I been - where I am
Don't spoil the end cause I'm not ready to leave the world
But promise me this - there'll be room in Heaven
When I'm done
Don't spoil the end cause I'm not ready to leave the world
But promise me this - there'll be room in Heaven
When I'm done
When I'm done

With You Again
04:06
|

|
I've watched you stare into the night
I'd give anything to know your mind
Your prayers were answered
You found yourself some wings
To fly far, far away
From me
They tell me I'll be alright
It's all a matter of time
As long as I don't fall in love
With you again
I found myself tired and lost at sea
I judged everything about you
And hated me
They tell me I'll be alright
It's all a matter of time
As long as I don't fall in love
With you again
With you again, with you again
Love, fall in love
With you - fall with you again (anything at all)
Love, fall in love
With you - fall with you again (anything at all)
Love, fall in love
With you - fall with you again (anything at all)
Love, fall in love
With you - fall with you again (anything at all)
