Heather Nova South Lyrics
1.If I Saw You In A Movie

Sweet, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go
I got an e-mail from you today
With a poem that you wrote
I was touched because you felt it
And 'cause I nearly let you go

Sweet, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go

This long distance has me outta my mind
But it gives me time to think
And it gives me room to see you
In another live

Sweet, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go

And I know if I saw you in a movie
And I know, doing all the things you do, for me
And I know if I saw you in a movie
Doing all the things you do
I would fall in love with you

Sweet, won't let you go, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go

And I know if I saw you in a movie
And I know, doing all the things you do, for me
And I know if I saw you in a movie
Doing all the things you do
I would fall in love with you

Sweet, won't let you go, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go
Sweet, won't let you go, won't let you go

Sweet, won't let you go, won't let you go


2.Talk To Me

Talk to, talk to me
Like you used to darling
I know it's cold, I know it's late
But let's go out walking
Cause we haven't heard each other in a long time
And we have been treading water living side by side

You take my breath away
Yeah you still do even though we've been down
So come on talk to me
Yeah come on, even though we've been down
So long, so long, long long long long

Come to me, come to me
Like you used to darling
Every day, every way, we've been losing something
Cause we haven't held each other in a long time
And I need to feel you body close to mine

You take my breath away
Yeah you still do even though we've been down
So come on, talk to me
Yeah yeah, even though we've been down
So long, long, long long long long

Cause it's still inside you and it's still inside me
Still in our blood, in our memory
I'm still longing for you, are you longing for me
A long, long long long long

You take my breath away
Yeah you still do even though we've been down
You take my breath away
Yeah you still do even though we've been so down
You give me the feeling and I love to feel
A long, long long long
You give me it all, before we'll ever take around
A long, long long long
It's a long long
Talk to me, talk to me, yeah
It's a long long
Talk to me, talk to me
It's a long, long long long long long long long long


3.Virus Of The Mind

While I was watching this talk show the other day
And on it there was this guy
And he was saying 'When you let other people tell you what's
right
when you leave your instinct and your own truth behind he said
that's a virus of the mind,
that's a virus of the mind'
Well I guess it's kinda like loosing your sight
For a second you think that they might be right
And it feeds the doubts that you have inside
It almost starts to feels like a crime
To follow your own rhythm and rhyme

I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind
Your virus of the mind

Well I went to this party thing last night
A lot of people I hadn't seen in a long long time
And they wanted to know about my life
But making me feel like it wasn't quite right
Like 'Where's is your kids?' and 'Where is you car?'
I said 'I don't have either but I have a guitar'
And I ended up feeling like I was a freak
So I found some wine and something to eat
I talked to the dog to pass the time
I told myself 'I'm doing just fine'
It's just a virus of the mind

It's just a virus of the mind
I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
Yeah I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind
Your virus of the mind

It's in the deep of your soul, it's on the tip of your tongue
It's the feeling you get, when you feel young
It's in the sound of a beat, it's in the base of your spine
It's in your gut reaction, yeah every time
But they tell you what you should have, they tell you who you
should be
It's in the pictures and ads and in the magazines
I'm kicking it off like a bug in the breeze
Cause is anyone out there inside me
I say 'Is anyone out there inside me?'
I say 'Is anyone?'

I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
Yeah I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind

I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
Yeah I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind
Your virus of the mind


4.Like Lovers Do

There is a paradise that can be found
A better life to bring us round
And all we really need to do
Is see the world like lovers do

I want to take it easy, take it slow
To catch a fire and let it go
I wanna give myself to you
So we can live like lovers do

Like lovers do
I wanna feel that way
Yeah like lovers do
They loose themselves for days
And I need to feel, I need to feel that way

I can hear you thinking what I feel
I know that what we've got is real
And all we need to get us through
Is just to live like lovers do

Just like lovers do
I wanna feel that way
Yeah like lovers do
They loose themselves for days
Yeah I need to feel, I need to feel that way
Like lovers do
Give me the strength
To give myself to you

Yeah like lovers do
They loose themselves for days
Lovers do

Yeah I need to feel, I need to feel that way

Like lovers do


5.Waste The Day

The streets are all busy
And we're still in bed
We should be up working
But we're lying here instead
I look outside, the weather's fine
For playing music, and drinking wine

I could waste the day with you
I could slip away
Into another dimension
What a perfect way, to spend the day, with you

Let's walk to the cafe
And sit in the sun
And read all the papers
And watch everyone
Cause life is short, and life is sweet
And sometimes you've just got to set yourself free

I could waste the day with you
I could slip away
Into another dimension
What a perfect way, to spend the day, with you

I could waste the day with you
I could slip away
Into another dimension
What a perfect way, to spend the day
Yeah what a perfect way, to spend the day, with you


6.Heaven Sent

Got the lights down low, the street below
The world inside is spinning
All my memories, my doubts about the ways that I've been living
You come on like the sun
And blow it all away

And I guess, heaven sent you, cause I'm heaven high
And I'm heading into what I can't describe
It's all I ever wanted, but I'm terrified
You're in my head, in my veins, in my world
And you're here to stay

Every day I wake, I hesitate
I feel you're in my sky
All my melodies, my dreams it seems
You're always on my mind
If you come on like a tide you turn me
And I can't turn away

I guess, heaven sent you, cause I'm heaven high
And I'm heading into what I can't describe
You're all I ever wanted, but I'm terrified
In my head, in my veins, in my world
And you're here to stay

I guess, heaven sent you, cause I'm heaven high
And I'm heading into, what I can't describe
You're all I ever wanted, but I'm terrified
In my head
Heaven sent you, cause I'm heaven high
Heading into, what I can't describe
You're all I ever wanted, but I'm terrified
In my head, in my veins, in my world, yeah
In my head, in my veins, in my world, yeah
In my head, in my veins, in my world
And you're here to stay


7.Only Love

Love

I used to think that I knew what we needed
I just assumed we would always be fine
Now I don't think that we lost the feeling
But we, let everything build up inside

It's only love
But love, should make us strong
It's only love
But love, has been hurting so long

What a challenge, honesty
What a struggle to learn to speak
Who would've thought that pretending was easier

It's only love
But love, should make us strong
It's only love
But love, has been hurting so long

And it's all, a part of me
It tears at my heart
Only love
And it's all an eternity
Hoping to learn
Only love

Love

There's a part of you I'm trying to reach
Still a part I don't know
Tell me, is devotion a gift or a thief
Do you wish I'd let go

It's only love
But love, should make us strong
It's only love
But love, has been hurting so long

And it's all, a part of me
It tears at my heart
Only love
And it's all, eternity
Hoping to learn
Only love

Only love, only love
Only love, only love, only love, only
Only love, only love, only love, only love
Love, only love


8.I'm No Angel

Are you ready
For me to be stronger
I'm keeping my distance
My voice to a whisper
Are you ready
For me to surrender
Cause I find in my return
There's no need to hide these words

Cause maybe, maybe, I'm no angel, I'm no angel
But I feel, like I could fly
And maybe, maybe, there's no rainbow, there's no rainbow
But my love for you still shines

And I want to, I wanna be endless
I wanna be helpless
I want to be true
Like a sunbeam, like a sunbeam
The shadow's behind me, the shadow's behind me
Sliding out of view
Let me bring it home to you

Cause maybe, maybe, I'm no angel, I'm no angel
But I feel, like I could fly
Maybe, maybe, there's no rainbow, there's no rainbow
But my love for you still shines

Cause here I am, here I am
I've been running, long enough to know
Here I am, here I stand
All this rung's got me longing in my soul
Longing in my soul

Cause maybe, maybe, I'm no angel, I'm no angel
But I feel, like I could fly
Maybe, maybe, there's no rainbow, there's no rainbow
But my love for you still shines

Yeah maybe, maybe, I'm no angel, I'm no angel
Angel feel, feel like I could fly
Yeah, maybe, maybe, there's no rainbow, there's no rainbow
But my love, love for you still shines
My love still shines


9.Help Me Be Good To You

Here in the light of late afternoon
Sun on the water, I'm thinking of you
How we've come too far
To be drifting apart
All this distance we're losing
I know it's my fault

But I think that I love you
I know that I do
I just need you
To help me, help me be good to you
Help me, help me be good to you
Help me, help me be good to you

I don't know why
I can't settle down
Something from my childhood
I still haven't found
And I don't wanna hurt you
With all my longings and my doubts
Just the way I need to feel free
I can see how it brings you down

Well I think that I love you
I know that I do
I just need you
To help me, help me be good to you
Help me, help me be good to you
Help me, please help me dad
Help me be good to you

Help me be good to you
Help me, help me be good to you
Help me, help me, help me, help me
Help me be good to you
Help me be good to you
Help me, help me be good to you
Help me, help me be good to you


10.When Somebody Turns You On

Can you hear me
Am I loud enough
Could you see it coming
Like an avalanche
I only felt the need

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you're waited
So long
When somebody turns you on

Were you waiting, were you waiting
When you took my hand
Were you aching with me
Did you understand
I only felt the heat

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you're waited
So long
When somebody turns you on

When I know this is real
I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I feel
You eyes go straight to my soul
And I know this is good
It goes deep like I know it should yeah
We've just got to let love grow

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you're waited
So long
When somebody turns you on

When somebody turns you on
It's like a light in the dark goes on
It's like you've waited for rain, you're waited
So long
When somebody turns you on

When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on
When somebody turns you on, when somebody turns you on


11.Gloomy Sunday

Lyrics:Javor/Lewis
Music:Seress

Sunday is gloomy
My hours are slumberless
Dearest the shadows
I live with are numberless
Little white flowers
Will never awaken you
Not where the black coach
Of sorrow has taken you
Angels have no thought
Of ever returning you
Would they be angry
If I thought of joining you
Gloomy Sunday

Sunday is gloomy
With shadows I spend it all
My heart and I have decided
To end it all
Soon there'll be flowers and prayers
That are said I know
But let them not weep
Let them know
That I'm glad to go
Death is no dream
For in death I'm caressing you
With the last breath of my soul
I'll be blessing you
Gloomy Sunday

Dreaming
I was only dreaming
I wake and I find you asleep
In the deep of my heart dear
Darling I hope
That my dream never haunted you
My heart is telling you
How much I wanted you
Gloomy Sunday
Gloomy Sunday


12.Tested

Simplicity, is what we need
And I know it in my heart
So many choices make us think we need
What we haven't got

I've been blessed, by you
I've been tested, by an angel
I've been blessed, by you
And I know and I believe
There's a way out to the sea of happiness

And if I knew what Buddha taught
And would my wings unfold
And if I had all that I want
Could I let it go

I've been blessed, by you
I've been tested, by an angel
I've been blessed, by you
And I know and I believe
There's a way out to the sea of happiness

And sometimes I feel I'm learning to crawl
Like I'm still learning how to love
And sometimes I feel like I'm losing it all
But I know there must be some way we can rise above

I've been blessed, by you
I've been tested, by an angel
I've been blessed, by you
And I know and I believe
There's a way out to the sea of happiness
And I know and I believe
And I know and I believe
And I know and I believe


13.Just Been Born

My heart opened, like an oyster shell
I drank salt water, from your lips
And just below the equator
I swallowed the pearl

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel like I've just been born

And the sea rolled in
And rose around us
Your face above me
Darkening the stars
And as the waves are breaking out along the reef
I dived for your heart

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel like I've just been born

Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
Want you yeah

Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
Want you

My heart opened, like an oyster shell
I drink salt water, from your lips
And just below the equator
I swallowed the pearl

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel like I've just been born

Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
want you yeah

Honey honey, yeah I want you
Honey honey, yeah I want you
