I'm never gonna be
the girl I was at 23
but I don't mind that at all
she drove me up the wall
Not chasing beauty youth or fame
things I'll never see again
but I have grown a thicker skin
I know how to dig my heels in
Oh Oh, Ooh
Oh Oh, Ooh
Don't need the world to know my name
I'm not playing any games
I'm not trying to win a prize
I'm just living my own life
Oh Oh, Ooh
Oh Oh, Oooh
I'm nobodies muse
noone to inspire but myself
I've nothing to lose
ain't gonna sit up on a shelf
Oh, Oh, ooh

All Fall Down
03:53
|
|||
|
It wasn't news to anybody else
it was only news to us
just another day
when all you had has slipped away
I get so high
That I don't know how
to let it all fall down
can you show me how
to let it all fall down
And people talk without a care
they all still walk
from here to there
the world still turns
while everything inside you burns
I get so high
That I don't know how
to let it all fall down
can you show me how
to let it all fall down

Lost My Head
03:28
|
|||
|
I lost my head
my heart my soul, my shirt, my shoes
with all that hurt
I wrote some blues
For all I've lost
I see what I had
it's too high a cost
But I'm glad
Love has pushed me down
love has carried me too
I learnt so much
I didn't wanna learn by losing you
You gave me love
you gave me so much
I miss your voice
I miss your touch
Your love was great
you put the earth under my feet
I miss your taste it was so sweet
Love has pushed me down
love has carried me too
I learnt so much
I didn't wanna learn by losing you

Out Of My Depth
03:42
|
|||
|
Thought I knew how to hold onto you
I've been doing it for so long
Thought I knew how to keep us afloat
don't tell me I've been doing it wrong
Why do I feel like something's
dragging us down
how could anything now make me feel
like we're gonna drown
Keep moving my arms and my legs gently
kicking them just enough
so far so good
but it goes to show that
suddeny things turn rough
What would it take to make you
cast your anchor away
would you rather drift untethered
or do what it takes to stay
I'm out of my depth
I'm out my depth
I'm all out of breath
I cannot steer a ship that's sinking
no matter how hard I try
don't know what I was
or was not thinking
fell bad about how much I've cried
What would it take to make you
cast your anchor away
would you rather drift untethered
or do what it takes to stay
I'm out of my depth
I'm out my depth
I'm all out of breath
There's nothing to say
there's nothing to say
there's no-one to save

I say goodbye to you
I dont know if you can hear me
but I think you do
I say it now
I say it loud
I don't want to feel lonely
when I'm in a crowd
Oh, Ooh
All this time
I let it grow
it was pulling me under
but I didn't know'
What's left of me'in this worn out shell
Might be a pearl
it's too early to tell
Oh, Ooh
Oh, Ooh
It's time
It's about time
There's time
There's still time
To change this state of mind
To mend this heart of mine
To change this state of mind
to mend this heart of mine
Oh, Ooh
Oh, Ooh
I say goodbye to you
I dont know if you can hear me
but I think you do

Heart Is In Your Hands
02:59
|
|||
|
I thought of you before we met
How beautiful life can get
Give all my to someone so small
and you take it
you take it all
My heart is in your hands
My heart is in your hands
You might never understand
but my heart is in your hands
I dreamt of you and chose your name
Life will never be the same
You're all I'll ever need
you've made my life complete
My heart is in your hands
My heart is in your hands
You might never understand
but my heart is in your hands

Loving You
03:00
|
|||
|
We wait for good news everyday
and even if we never used to, we pray
The love you share is all around
send it up in the air
it all comes down
Everybody here has got a story
we feel a connection to you
we all just wanna hear another story
no-one tells them like you do
The love you share is all around
send it up in the air
it all comes down
The love you share is all around
send it up in the air
it all comes down

You're right, we're all running around so much
we don't always see
the birds in the trees
You're right
I've been runninng around so much
I didn't hear
them singing to me
Your heart is on your sleeve
Even though you hate to say it
It's just a simple melody
You sway the room when you play it
And you play
as often as you can
we all should play
as often as we can
You say things that i've felt
the way that you play
I melt
I've been scared to begin
never wanted to play
never thought I'd win
My heart is on my sleeve
even though I hate to say it
Cuase it's not clever or oblique
it's just a melody I'm playing
And I play
as often as I can
we all should play
as often as we can
You're right, we're all running around so much
we don't always see
the birds in the trees
You're right
I've been runninng around so much
I didn't hear
them singing to me
Your heart is on your sleeve
Even though you hate to say it
It's just a simple melody
You sway the room when you play it
And you play
as often as you can
we all should play
as often as we can
Play, play

I'm feeling like I
should reach out
do you feel it too
let's both shout
loud, don't worry nobodies listening today
Just feeling you arms around me
I'm overwhelmed with this love
that surrounds me
Shout, I'm happy nobodies listening today
I was thinking it amazes me
I guess that's just the way it's meant to be
I know we're best friends
Don't you feel that way
it overwhelms me still to say
I'm feeling like I
should reach out
do you feel it too
let's both shout
loud, don't worry nobodies listening today
Dont worry
you won't scare me away
but there are some things
you really have to say
Shout it out
Shout it out
Shout it out
Shout it out
Are you feeling like you should reach out
