Lost in Love 04:25
we've been so long lonely we've been so long scared sitting in a dark, cold room side by side in the light of the tv i can see you but can you see me we've been closing curtains we've been staying home remember when we talked all night? remember what you said? break the rules then ask forgiveness no expectation, no judge or witness lost in love nothing to figure, nothing to fix face to face in an unknown place breathe out, breathe in don't you wanna be lost in love? lost in love is not a point on the map we never really get there we never arrive love is on the way whenever we choose it but we've got to decide in my darkest moments in a reoccurring dream we're barefoot on a rocky road walking and wincing together but unconvincing lost in love nothing to figure, nothing to fix face to face in an unknown place breathe out, breathe in i wanna be lost in love lost in love is like the rose that we planted surrounded by concrete fragile and brave love is what we make of it every time we take our chances in the moments we stay stay
3.
so you've had a little trouble miles from the nearest road you've got a heavy load, a heavy heart don't fall apart stay right where you are i'll be there on the double before the sun can set if it hurts then let it don't disappear stay right where you are you don't have to make it ok you don't have to say it's fine take your time, the world will wait you're allowed stay right where you are you're breathing you are alive feel what you're feeling you'll survive, you'll survive stay right where you are so you've had a little trouble miles from the nearest road you've got a heavy load, a heavy heart
4.
Take Comfort 04:11
take comfort in my voice, in my smile take comfort for awhile i'd hold you if i could if it was good take comfort in my smile take comfort in my trust, in my faith take comfort that i'll stay ever stay where ever you may go i hope to you know to take comfort in my love whenever you speak i hear every murmur of your heart there's only one thing i'm afraid of if the day should come when you're not here when you're not near me i know very clearly i'd fall apart but i take heart, i take heart i take comfort in your faith, in your trust i take comfort in the two of us i promise to be yours whatever may be take comfort in me
5.
The Dream 04:31
memories in pieces stirring like smoke clues found in waking, fragmented hope i know that i was there i've got to find my way back in i know that you were there i face the clock away again traveling through time and the dark of my mind to the place where i'll find you waiting eyes wide open, right now hardly aware that we're floating, falling, so real but baby, we know we're asleep and when we wake up to the real world we'll forget the dream sunrise and coffee, same old routine none of the freedom found in the dream is this the world we make? all that we say we Can't Do? is this the world awake? the loneliness, the nothing new traveling through time and the dark of my mind to the place where i'll find you waiting eyes wide open, right now hardly aware that we're floating, falling, so real but baby, we know we're asleep and when we wake up in the real world face your tigers, face your fears reservations disappear face your tigers, face your fears reservations disappear eyes wide open, somehow hardly aware that we're floating, falling, so real are we awake or asleep? one life, one chance, right now knowing we're dreaming so deep if we wake up to the real world will we mis the dream? if we wake up

Happiest 03:52
i don't expect you'll say don't think you'll care to tell me i set it up this way just to see you when you look at me, say my name that's when i'm happy, that's when i'm happy when you ask me for anything that's when i'm happy, that's when i'm happy happiest i am the one who knows after all this is my painting and when the colors fade oh what, i would do just to see you when you look at me, say my name that's when i'm happy, that's when i'm happy when you ask me for anything that's when i'm happy, that's when i'm happy happiest where is your sorrow, where is your pain when you are lonely tell me the name you call tell me the name when you are spinning & out of control when life gets angry, where do you go tell me the name when you look at me, say my name that's when i'm happy, that's when i'm happy when you ask me for anything that's when i'm happy, that's when i'm happy happiest
8.
when i'm ready i'll take a look inside myself coz i've been sleeping, stalling, hiding out i've been wondering just like everybody else how to make a change when i don't know how in my dark empty room there's a door waiting to be kicked open on the other side of my loneliness and pride there's a light, burning bright & steady when i'm ready when we're ready, we'll be kinder, we'll be brave when everybody's pointing fingers, casting blame we'll stand together, not looking on or away can we build a bridge without taking aim? every dark empty room there's a door waiting to be kicked open on the other side of our loneliness and pride there's a light burning bright & steady when we're ready pay close attention now put the guns down, put them down all of this confusion and pain it won't let up until we find a way to understand each other to understand that every dark empty room has a door waiting to be kicked open and when we see the sun, side by side, everyone in that light burning bright and steady we'll know that every dark empty room had a door waiting to be kicked open on the other side of our loneliness and pride there's a light burning bright & steady when we're ready when i'm ready
9.
you make me so mad you make me crazy you make me wanna be bad you make me, you make me you make me shiver you make so aware you make me try so hard you make me you make me wonder make me wonder, make me stray make me sorry, make me beg make me fire the gun yeah, you're the only one you make me wonder you love me kind of you love me all the way you love more than enough depending on the day you make me wonder make me wonder, make me stray make me sorry, make me beg make me fire the gun yeah, you're the only one you make me wonder you make me so mad you make me crazy you make me wanna be bad you make me, you make me
10.
All of Me 04:02
set me up with one more drink makes it easy, kills the pain i don't know what to think i just know that i'm game for anything you were going to leave this place i watched you slip away now standing in my space i only want to stay forever all of me, will you be mine all of me, let me be yours hearts, hands, white sands here in paradise, you could take all of me hardly a soul out here only ocean, beach and stars we could disappear we could wander far, far away it's got to be tonight baby, please say yes no wrong or right and you won't have to guess my intentions all of me, will you be mine all of me, let me be yours hearts, hands, white sands here in paradise, you could take all of me i should not be drinking this i should not be thinking this i just want you, gotta have you for the rest of my life all of me, will you be mine all of me, let me be yours hearts, hands, white sands here in paradise, you could take all of me if you want to have your way baby, you should stay
11.
we could make a fuss we could pick a fight we could hold onto what we think is wrong or right we could break it down, burn it down, take it by force there's another way we could talk it out we could lose the pride we could make a point we could hear the other side we could shake it down, turn around, chart out a course but there's another way shake the world shake it up turn it on its head but give it love be the one who can see that you can shake the world gently you can a shine a light you can say hello learn to love someone that you don't even know you can take command, understand, no one is alone that could be the way to shake the world shake it up turn it on its head but give it love be the one who can see that you can shake the world gently we don't have to fight we don't have to struggle if we bring kindness it's a long, cold night but we have each other you and me, me and you, we could shake the world shake the world shake it up turn it on its head but give it love be the one who can see that you can shake the world gently

i greet the morning another early dawn by letting go, and giving in and moving on my heart is ready, i'm willing to receive faith, hope, joy & love i have everything i need i will rise up i will raise my voice i'll remember every day i have a choice i will rise up i will raise my voice and remember every day i make the choice and in the evening yes, when the day is done i'm letting go, and giving in, and moving on my heart i ready, i'm willing to receive faith, hope, joy & love i have everything i need i will rise up i will raise my voice i'll remember every day i have a choice i will rise up i will raise my voice and remember every day i make the choice i greet the morning another early dawn by letting go, and giving in and moving on my heart is ready, i'm willing to receive faith, hope, joy & love i have everything i need i will rise up i will raise my voice i'll remember every day i have a choice i will rise up i will raise my voice and remember every day i make the choice
