1.Hold On
Say you to me
You're a bird with an eye
for the enemy shining
Searching the land
for a hero of a man
You say I need
More than my fair share of attention
But I think you know
That just isn't so
Oh underneath
I felt the fire of a burning question
Tearing me apart,
Right from the very start.
And now I see,
That it dont take a trick
Of the light to excite me.
So Strong
So Long
You'll see
Hold on to what
you've been given lately.
Hold on to what
you know you've got.
Hold on to what you've
been given lately.
Hold on 'cause the world will
turn if you're ready or not.
Simplicity,
A heart of gold,
an old head and young shoulders
Quiet and lovely,
Becoming part of me.
And now I see
from a handful of names
and a thousand faces.
One light burning
Fiercely
I was tired of January
Tired of June
I felt a change coming
oh oh
I was tired of January
I was tired of June
I felt a change coming
oh oh
I felt a change coming,
sooon
Hold on to what you've
been given lately.
Hold on to what you
know you've got.
Hold on to what you've
been given lately.
Hold on 'cause the world will
turn if you're ready or not.
Hold on to what you've
been given lately.
Hold on to what you
know you've got.
Hold on to what you've
been given lately.
Hold on 'cause the world will turn
if you're ready or not.
Well the world will turn
if you're ready or not
Whoa-oh, Yes the world will turn
if you're ready or not.
2.Journey
Sometimes I just wanna keep walking
get me into the mountains.
I see everything's easy,
If I just keep walking.
And sometimes I don't wanna get,
sometimes I don't wanna get,
sometimes I don't wanna get old.
And sometimes the journey's the thing,
sometimes the journeys's the thing
And I don't wanna sing - I wanna walk.
And sometimes I lift my head to the sky,
so I can listen for signs.
And I've found it takes me out of this town.
And sometimes I don't wanna get,
Sometimes I don't wanna get,
Sometimes I don't wanna get old.
And sometimes the journey's the thing,
sometimes the journeys's the thing
3.Suddenly I See (Live)
Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her
is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her
feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm
Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me
I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like
she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer
when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you
hanging on a wire
And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking
from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel like
I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see
Suddenly I see
Suddenly I see
4.Hopeless (Live acoustic)
Songwriters:Tunstall, Katie
Hopeless
Everybody says its just another decay
of the soul
But I know I'm hopeless,
thought about anything to take me away
from this hole in the ground
I found it's hopeless
clinging to a feeling
Like a fish on a line,
so blinded by the lately
Hopeless, no more saying
that there's no more time.
I've was trying far too hard
To be what I thought I should be
I was playing wild cards and
Seeing things that weren't in front of me
Like a little tiger,
played fighting,
Until I was hurting myself,
again and again
Because I'm hopeless.
Everybody says its just another decay
of the soul
But I know I'm hopeless,
thought about anything to take me away
from this hole in the ground
I found it's hopeless
clinging to a feeling
Like a fish on a line,
so blinded by the lately
Hopeless, no more saying
that there's no more time.
That there's no more time.
Well I'm just discovering
I'm living in a different body
Caught a little insight
into everything
thats happening to me
Like a little spider,
I'm climbing the insurmountable
But I'll never hold myself accountable, no.
'Cause I'm hopeless.
Everybody says I'm hopeless
But I got a bit of hopelessness
Oh and you can never bring me down
Even though I've got some silent ground
Oh because I love it so
And I think you should know
Because I'm hopeless.
Everybody says its just another decay
of the soul
But I know I'm hopeless,
thought about anything to take me away
from this hole in the ground
I found it's hopeless
clinging to a feeling
Like a fish on a line,
so blinded by the lately
Hopeless, hopeless, hopeless
No more saying that there's no more time.
