In a Bar
04:21
|

just like on tv
I’m going out to meet
the girl of my dreams
I’ll have strangers at my feet
don't live in a bar
don’t live in a bar
you can be sure
they won’t show
the broken hearts
It doesn’t see the next day;
I’m puking, not getting laid
how did it end this way?
I’m going back to complain
don't live in a bar
don’t live in a bar
you can be sure
they won’t show
the broken hearts
you can be sure
they won’t show
the broken hearts
so protect yourself
they’ll only show
what they can sell

Do You Approve?
02:21
|
|||
I don’t know a thing about you
but I could spend the day around you
I’m feeling love
oh it won’t kill you
I could cut your hair or shout for you
I feel so love for you
do you approve?
this time I can spend
the hardest signs of feeling love
I’m such a silly person
I can mime and I can hurt them/then
and feel so oh the fool
do you approve?
do you approve?
do I make it up to you?
oh it’s never enough

All The Signs
02:30
|
|||
Why don't I love you
like I really should?
why don't I love you
I really should
all the time
such a lovely way to be
all the signs
tend to disagree
why don't I love you
look I really should!
why no love for you
to put me in a good mood
do I turn my back on you
or turn against myself
is it loving you
or is it something else?
some big waste of time
where everything gets worse;
oh the thought of you crying!
I never want you to feel hurt
why don't I love you
why no love for you?
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
why I do what I do

Here To Stay
02:38
|
|||
It’s too quiet
with you and me
if you’re worried
you give yourself away
I hold with all my weight
that hole
is here to stay
if you’re leaving
how can I stand by
‘cos all I wanted
you give yourself away
I hold with all my weight
that hole
is here to stay
its too quiet
my love still burns
its too quiet
(do we care who we hurt?)
with all my weight
that hole
is here to stay

Wheel Has Turned
03:51
|
|||
I'm done making mistakes
Mistakes, can fuck right off
I'm no worse today
Then when I started out
Oh the wheel has turned
And my luck might rise
I'm done with my mistakes
Its time to take the weight off
(no worse) then the day
I realised what had been missing all along
Oh the wheel has turned
And my luck maybe too
No longer stuck, ruined
No longer lost

||||
Is there someone
worth waiting for?
don't want to stay here
by myself
I've been living
but not so well
and avoiding
all of my friends
is there someone
worth waiting for?
some time alone
seemed good back then
though I met a girl
and she seems sweet
no its not clear
if shes keen on kissing again
oh change is allowed
oh change. allow
come on baby
it'll be ok
we can just
walk together again.
when I'm with you
I don't feel need
or want
anything else

Pull Me In (by Windings)
04:02
|
|||
whats happening now
is enough
to do me in
I replayed your voice
but it just didn’t sound the same
and I walked on and on
turned my back on everything
I walked on
on you I turned my back
Lyrics by S. Ryan

No-One Knows
04:11
|
|||
won't somebody help me?
I might, have done anything
but they don’t
suspect a thing
no-one knows
the trouble I’m in
(waiting)..just to see you
you can tell from the look in her eyes
she’s got all
she’s ever dreamed of
and you love her
but something ain’t right
and she don’t suspect a thing
no-one knows the trouble you’re in
you keep it inside
you keep it all inside
is it helping, who?
If it leaves you like this?
take her hand and go
take her hand and go
you know you love each other so
take her hand
you love each other so

there must be some way out of here
I just haven’t found it yet
we don’t need to break ourselves
knowing our regrets
another lie
we don’t have to fight
I don’t know but honesty
doesn't always seem to fit
if we’re only telling half the truth
are we killing the best bit?
another lie
we don’t have to fight
you’re that someone I
I haven’t failed with yet
oh do you know whats next?
will you choose the best?
we don’t have to fight
I just need this off my chest
we don’t have to lie

Just Hold On (new track)
02:25
|
|||
just hold on; things will improve
right infront of your eyes
love will appear to you
though it depends on where they look
leave your problems under your feet
don’t look down except when you need
I know you try hard more can be found
they want to breed and multiply
just hold on
the best you can do
the best of us
make mistakes too
let love appear
to ya
let love appear to ya
