1.These days
Some days I couldn't get up
I couldn't get down
Bored of everything
Somehow a little black cloud
Rained over me
Someone was making me mad
Good turned bad and I lose everything
Just to get you back
But
These days the world's alright
The sun shines bright
I'm kicking off the bad dreams
These days I don't think twice
I walk on light
I'm positively somewhere
(chorus)
These days go on long after you've gone
These days go on long after you've gone
These days go on and on and on and on and on
Out of the fire into the swimming pool
Sometimes I drown my tears
Same old fears come back
Someone was making me ill
I bet you're still
A two, three, four letter word
Guess you heard
Pretty little birds fly home
But
These days the sun kicks in
The good guys win
I'm legal in the back seat
These days I'm safe and sound
Not dragged down
You want to know the reason
These days go on long after you've gone
These days go on long after you've gone
These days go on and on and on and on and on
Thank you for not being here
I feel better when you're not sleeping in my head
Tossing and turning an' messing up the sheets
The love we made was incomplete
Like the shoes on your feet
The same stuff I've heard it before
That philosophy starting to bore me
Now you won't have to smile and ignore me
These days the karma's right
The sun shines bright
I'm kicking out the bad dreams
These days I don't think twice
I walk on light
I'm positively somewhere
2.Here with me
In my head
I have dreams
I have visions of many things
Questions longings in my mind
Pictures fill my head
I feel so trapped instead
But trapped doesn't seem so bad
Cause you are here
It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And I can try to justify
But I still need you here with me
In my heart I had hope
Built on dreams I'll never know
Answers to love left behind
Visions filled my head
I felt so trapped instead
But trapped didn't seem so bad
Cause you were near
It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And I can try to justify
But I still need you here with me
I can't do anything without you
You give me strength to do anything
And I can't be everything I try to
You saved me from the everything I couldn't be
It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And I can try to justify
But I still need you here with me
Need you here with me
I need you here with me
3.Stranded
You know it only breaks my heart
To see you standing in the dark
Alone waiting there for me to come back
I'm too afraid to show
If it's coming over you
Like it's coming over me
I'm crashing like a tidal wave
That drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you
If you wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave
I don't want to be
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
I can only take so much
These tears are turning me to rust
I know you're waiting there for me to come back
I'm too afraid to show
If it's coming over you
Like it's coming over me
I'm crashing like a tidal wave
That drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you
If you wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave
I don't wanna be
(Stranded)It's coming over you
(Stranded)It's coming over me
(Stranded)It's coming over you
(Stranded)Yeah yeah yeah
I miss you
I need you
Without you
I'm stranded
I love you
So come back
I'm not afraid to show
Crashing like a tidal wave
Drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you
You wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave
I don't wanna
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
(Stranded)Coming over you
(Stranded)Coming over you
(Stranded)Coming over me
(StrandedComing over you
(Stranded Stranded)So baby come back to me
(Stranded Stranded)So baby come back to me
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
Stranded
4.Make me
You look so confident
The way you work the room
Like you're heaven sent
Everybody checking you
Something about it baby
Keepin' me amused
Hate to admit it but I
Kind of like your attitude
Things that you do and the things that you say
Gotta be for real if you want me to stay
Think that I'll jump if you want me to play
Well, you gotta do better than that
Make me
Give you everything I've got
A reason to let you in my private thoughts
Take me
To a higher place where I've never been
The way that no one else can
Make me
I see the wheels are turning
You've always been the best
You think you're the first
You better second guess
Before we get to that
You gotta go like this
Show me I'm on top of
Your most wanted list
Things that you do and the things that you say
Gotta be for real if you want me to stay
Think that I'll jump if you want me to play
Well, you gotta do better than that
Make me
Give you everything I've got
A reason to let you in my private thoughts
Take me
To a higher place where I've never been
The way that no one else can
Make me
No easy come
No easy go
The way to my heart is through my soul
I'm giving you
The simple fact
Think that I'll jump if you want me to play
Well, you gotta do better than that
Make me
Give you everything I've got
A reason to let you in my private thoughts
Take me
To a higher place where I've never been
The way that no one else can
Make me
5.Way of the world
Who he is
Who I am how we move
I just sit and watch the frenzy
I can't catch my breath to stop and see
Is this what you meant
Is this happy
What's going on all around me
I just can't work it out exactly
It all comes down so abstractly
It's the way of the world of you and me
It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might
It's the way of the world of you and me
Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight
It's the way of the world
It's the way of the world
What does it mean
All the flowers I've received
It must be raining botany
Spinning and flashing and dashing
And narrowly escaping
In an accent that I'm sure he's faking
But then we just burst out laughing
What zone is this we're passing
It's the way of the world of you and me
It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might
It's the way of the world of you and me
Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight
It's the way of the world
It's the way of the world
I'm thinking to myself
Baby with all you all I know is I go somewhere else
Lost in the mystery
In some other world
There's nowhere else I'd rather be
It's the way of the world of you and me
It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might
It's the way of the world of you and me
Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight
The way of the world of you and me
Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight
It's the way of the world of you and me
It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might
It's the way of the world of you and me
Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight
It's the way of the world of you and me
6.Not this time
Started seeing trouble in your eyes
Followed you around just a little while
Didn't want to believe you could do me wrong
Did her lips taste as sweet as mine
Did she fall for all your fancy lines
You run around me with another
Think that you can do better
You said I was everything
But you'd tell me anything
Did you think I would take you back
Never take you back
Not this time
Now you say you're sorry for what you've done
That I will always be the only one
Well, you can take your sorry's to someone else
You ran around on me with another
Thought that you could do better
You said I was everything
But you'd tell me anything
Did you think I would take you back
Never take you back
Not this time
I covered you in roses
And I fell for your disguise
But it doesn't seem so pretty now
You said I was everything
But you'd tell me anything
Did you think I would take you back
Never take you back
Not this time
Did you think I would take you back
7.You get through
Thought my pain could not be penetrated
My defenses activated
Like a heart that was laminated
And completely sealed
But you're just like a beam of freedom
Pure whit light in faded jeans
I love the way you see me baby
The way you make me feel
You, you get through
Even with my walls in place
Even with my poker face
And all those little girl games I play
You, you get through
And you never let me down
Never disappointed
With the love you've found
You get through
Not in my wildest imagination
Did I have this expectation
Now I'm having the revelation
I am not immune
Cause when you hold me I surrender
I am yours
Yours forever
I love the way you love me baby
The things you do, you do
You, you get through
Even with my walls in place
Even with my poker face
And all those little girl games I play
You, you get through
And you never let me down
Never disappointed
With the love you've found
You get through
From the bottom of the heart of me
I feel this love
Every single little part of me
Is opening up
You, you get through
Even with my walls in place
Even with my poker face
And all those little girl games I play
You, you get through
And you never let me down
Never disappointed
With the love you've found
You get through
8.Feel so far
What have we become
It seems our hearts have come undone
And even when I hold you in my arms
you're out of reach
I would walk a thousand miles to get to you
Ten thousand more to get you back into me
But the more I reach the more you run
The more I reach the more you run
I feel so far
I feel so far away
From where you are
I feel so far away
Silently pretending
We're not alone and nothing's ending
Lost in the familiar
We've forgotten how to dream
I remember a time when you and I
believed in forever
I want that again
But the more I reach the more you run
The more I reach the more you run
I feel so far
I feel so far away
From where you are
I feel so far away
Standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
Reaching out but I can't get to you
Get to you
Standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
Do everything I do to get to you
Get to you
I'm standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
I'm reaching out but I can't get to you
Get to you
I feel so far
I feel so far away
From where you are
I feel so far away
I feel so far
I feel so far away
From where you are
I feel so far away
I'm standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
I'm reaching out but I can't get to you
Get to you
9.The edge
A crowded room in the dead of night
Bodies crash in the sound and sight
I see your face break through in a flash of a light
With eyes that seem to read my mind
I feel we've touched in another time
And suddenly my heart is coming alive
And I feel you calling me
All night
Pulling me closer
Wanna give you all of me
Oh I
I think I'm going over
Over the edge
The night unfolds like a lover's arms
But we can't talk
Don't know where to start
We breathe as one but we're two worlds apart
So let's not question right or wrong
Wanna move with you 'til the night is gone
And suddenly this is where we belong
And I feel you calling me
All night
Pulling me closer
Wanna give you all of me
Oh I
I think I'm going over
Over the edge
If I'm going over baby come with me
All the way over, baby
And I feel you calling me
All night
Pulling me closer
Wanna give you all of me
Oh I
I think I'm going over
Over the edge
10.Tell me when
I talk to you out loud
Driving south on Kings road
I've got you in my coat here
Written down
I find new ways to want you
But I can't reach you
So I head downtown
It's forever later
You're so far away
As night becomes day
I remember the way you held me
Baby won't you
Tell me when so I keep believing
Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time
Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling
Tell me again when you'll be mine
When you'll be mine
Tell me when
Flying standby
On the redeye when you saw me
You left and I heard voices in my head
A happy accident that had to happen
A car crash in my bed
It's forever later
You're so far away
As night becomes day
I remember the way you held me
Baby won't you
Tell me when so I keep believing
Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time
Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling
Tell me again when you'll be mine
When you'll be mine
Tell me when
It's forever later
You're so far away
I remember the way you held me, baby
Tell me when so I keep believing
Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time
Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling
Tell me again when you'll be mine
When you'll be mine
Tell me when
11.Stay the night
Don't know what you intended
Am I just part of your game
Boy, you started a fire
I can't identify it
You're only fanning the flame
It's the rule of desire
Don't keep me waiting here for your love
Come and show me what you're made of
Stay the night
And I'll decide
If it's right
Cause I won't wait forever baby
Stay the night
Come inside
Show me why
I Should let you
Stay the night
Use your imagination
Don't treat me like the rest
Show me you'll do it better
This kind of situation
Requires only the best
Boy, it's now or never
I'm just waiting here for your love
Come and show me what you're made of
Stay the night
And I'll decide
If it's right
Cause I won't wait forever baby
Stay the night
Come inside
Show me why
I Should let you
Stay the night
This could go either way
So don't just stand there at my door
Cause I can't
No, I can't fight this feeling anymore
No more
Stay the night
And I'll decide
If it's right
Cause I won't wait forever baby
Stay the night
Come inside
Show me why
I Should let you
Stay the night
12.Vapor
I can take you down to everywhere I go
Never want to take you down that low
Been starin' out my window
Into negative space
On the pavement from the elevator
Down the cornershop to buy the paper
Had a premonition you would be there too
No way not today
It's just more bad news
I want to be vapor
Want to rise above the year
I want to be steamy
And dry up all my tears
Cause with my head in the clouds
I'd be light upon my heels
I want to be vapor
I want to be vapor
And disappear sometimes
My heart is heavy
I feel I'm sinking in
My sister tells me that I spread myself too thin
Feel like standing in a plaster mold of me
What I have is not contagious
I see a smile on a passing stranger
Think to follow them to see where they go all day
Wanna know how it is they get that way
I want to be vapor
Want to rise above the year
I want to be steamy
And dry up all my tears
Cause with my head in the clouds
I'd be light upon my heels
I want to be vapor
I want to be vapor
And disappear sometimes
I could take you down to everywhere I go
But I never want to take you down that low
Oh no Oh no
I want to be vapor
Want to rise above the year
I want to be steamy
And dry up all my tears
Cause with my head in the clouds
I'd be light upon my heels
I want to be vapor
I want to be vapor
And disappear sometimes
