Leaving Song
01:44
|

when you leave
take a part of me please
take the part of me
that thinks, feels and perceives
without you in the world, i don't want to sense
what has gone before, what is coming hence
the browning of the leaves, falling summer showers
the weightlessness of limbs
in freezing tidal powers
i just want to sense
the signals your eyes send
to drink with you alone
and feel our worries blend into each other's
i just want to spend the night with you again

all my secrets wrapped up inside yours
all my honesty pours out to your ears
i keep it hidden but you can see through it
you bring it out and i don't know how you do it
i don't know how you do it
since i met you, i've been feeling much worse
got confused and i felt better at first
i'm sticking in cos i don't want to avoid this
i'm sticking in but i don't know what the point is
i don't know what the point is
i feel like i'm waking from a strange sleep
i made the choice and made the change deep
comes home to rest when i invite it
an old fight but i don't know how to fight it
i don't know how to fight it
i don't know how you do it
i don't know what the point is
i don't know if i want to fight it
i don't know how you do it

The Frozen Lake
03:07
|
|||
the frozen lake that you took me to
is beautiful and ours alone to view
under the ice the world is waiting
though they're silent,
still i hear them call
can you make them stop, sweet love?
all my life i've wanted someone
who reminds me i am real
when i'm numb...
in the air tonight
white frost
never felt so safe to be lost

Good Enough
03:55
|
|||
speak to you and my spirit sparks
come and see you when the hours get dark
hold my breath cos i'm swathed in sin
let it out when you let me in
it's true: my love is not good enough
but i can't help it
must be getting punished for an ancient crime
from a previous life of mine
cos i've lived right but i've since then found
that to another, you are bound
it's true: my love is not good enough
but i can't help it
from my lonely, solemn days
i am left with a cold, grey glaze
you bring hopefulness into view
but i can't hold it, and it leaves with you.

is there something else behind your eyes
that i haven't seen yet?
i hurt you with cowardice and lies
but i didn't mean it...
it doesn't really matter.
i surrender to a deeper fate
catch on the wind and sail
know that i'm not one who will be great
but one who'll always fail
i can fill the longest silence
i'm good at using words
though you know my pain in rivers
it comes to me in floods
it doesn't really matter
