When the Morning Comes
05:40

It takes time to ease the pain
In spite of what some might claim
'Cause from what I've seen
In my bespoke dreams
And from what's been said
In the books I've read
There awaits a prize for you to claim
When the morning comes
You're in sorrow
Midnight on the bay
Meet up in the cemetery
Moonlight on your eyes
The sun shines in for a nice surprise
Don’t waste time on what caused the pain
Get on your feet again
It will hold you down and will push you around
Just set it free, it’s what’s meant to be
There is a stake for you to claim
When the morning comes
You’re in sorrow
Moonlight on the bay
Moving with the symmetry
Midnight on your eyes
Staying in for a nice surprise
It takes time to ease the pain
In spite of what some might claim
You will settle down again
There is a lion that you will tame
When the morning comes

Little Known

Little Known
Unforgotten
Going rotten
Long strayed from the path
For I don't know
And I can't see
Left from my mind
And wandering free
Little Known
Undetected
Unelected
Left wondering what’s gone wrong
For I don't know
And I can't see
Left from my mind
And wandering free
On the far side of the hillside
Is a path that we’d climb
On the way down we then fell down
But what’s lost we will find
Little Known
Uninvited
Unrequited
Locked out from the warmth
For I don't know
And I can't see
Left from my mind
And wandering free
Little Known
Keeps you waiting
Undulating
Left wondering who you are
For I don't know
And I can't see
Left from my mind
And wandering free
On the far side of the hillside
Is a path that we’d climb
On the way down we then fell down
But what’s lost we will find

Impossible to Tell
03:17
|
|||
|
Who am I to say
That all the dreams we had
Are now something of an afterthought
And who are you to say
That the blame should be solely placed on me
I don’t know, it’s impossible to tell
Who am I to say
That all the things we did
Now just amount to nothing
And who are you to say
That the onus now solely falls on me
I don’t know, it’s impossible to tell
You might not feel an awful lot
Or think you’ve seen me there
You may hope there’s a reason for the change
But I know that you don’t really care
I don’t know, it’s impossible to tell
Who am I to say
That’s it’s a weight off my shoulders
Now it’s finished
And who are you to say
That there’s still problems left unresolved
I don’t know, it’s impossible to tell

Way to Go

Way to go
I’ll be coming back
As long as you say that you will not stall
As long as you say that you will not fall
As long as you say that you will not go
As long as you say that you’ll always show
Way to go
I’ll be coming back
As long as you say that you will not fall
As long as you say that you will not stall
As long as you say that you’ll always show
As long as you say that you will not go

Fingers Crossed
02:13
|
|||
|
From what we blindly fought for so long
We stumbled and bumbled our way on
Now I believe
That we’ll finally get what we want
Learnt from things we got wrong
Went from yearning to turning the tide around
Now I can see
That we’ll finally get what we want
I couldn’t persuade you, but I’ve tried
I couldn’t relate but now I might
I couldn’t arouse you, though I know
That we’ve finally climbed on the top
We waited and knew what we could do
Now I agree
That we’ll never go on without you

I've Talked Too Much
00:37
|
|||
|
When I say I feel no pain
I’ve talked too much
I’m talking out of time
Like the wave of goodbye
When you say you’ve been ashamed
I thought as much
I’m walking in a line
Just to save me from time

You said you don’t know which way to turn
You said you don’t know which way to learn
You said our life was a fantasy
Honed
You said you wanted to spend some time
Said you’d be back after a little while
You want to do things that make you feel
Whole
You will form
You’re at fault
You will form
You’re at fault
You will form
Whole

Downpour
02:50
|
|||
|
Stand on guard when I stand near you
Vivid pages with the writing on the wall
Written deep and angry
Watch them fly and make me green with envy
It’s so hard when I stand near you
Vivid signals leave no guessing to be done
And I can’t run for cover
Stuck inside, left me with No Other
Stand on guard when I stand near you
Stand your ground so I’ll stand in the downpour

Secret's Safe Inside
03:56

Across the street
Into the sea below
Is where we’ll meet
In case you don’t know
I’d never know by your eyes
But I know you’ll surprise me still
I’ll never see in your mind
But I know that you’ll find your way home
And where you’re going
Across the street
Is where I want to be
Surrounded by
The deep salt sea
I always knew from the start
That your warm heart won’t grow cold
I can’t envisage the end
Or it beginning to descend
And you know that
You don’t have to worry now
‘Cause you’re secrets safe inside
You don’t have to worry now
Over and over
From small town dreams
That should remain untold
Grow vivid dreams
With pictures bright and bold
And if I felt at the time
I’d put the climb on hold
We would learn from the past
And develop a faster way forward
You know that
You don’t have to worry now
‘Cause you’re secrets safe inside
You don’t have to worry now
Over and over

I just want to sing for you
I just want to know what's true
Now and then
I just want to sing you songs
I just want to right the wrongs
Now and then
Things will change
They can never be the same
You didn't stop to say what you know
Wait
I couldn't hesitate
To stop and fill your plate
Full of hope
I just want to hold you close
I just want to bring you toast
Now and then
I just want to work it out
I just want to end the doubt
Now and then
Things will change
They can never be the same
You didn't stop to say what you know
Wait
I couldn't hesitate
To stop and fill your plate
Full of hope
Write between the lines
Well I can't speak
I can't see without you
So, you've changed your mind
Just so you know
I don't know what you're thinking
To dance the blues away
Is easier done than said
Write between the lines
Well I can't see
I can't speak without you
So, you've changed your mind
Just so you know
I don't know what you've learnt
To dance the blues away
Is easier done than said
