1.Deep Blue Sound
she tip-toes along the wall
like a butterfly down the hall she floats to the door
turns the handle to go and she panics
i wake from the dead
i'm feeling her side of the bed
i know she's not there
she's a ghost in the room
i'm falling hard again
crashing down, the bell has finally run aground
homeward bound, fading faster to the deep blue sound
you're made of steel
she's afraid of the other side
the place where you never hide
insecurity, pride, it's all part of what makes you real
time is not on our side
it's the ruin of all that i know
i'm taking you home
i don't care what they say
i know i'm good for you
crashing down, the bell has finally run aground
homeward bound, fading faster to the deep blue sound
you're made of steel
i want you to feel again, close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
and i'd risk it all again for you to be close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
i'm losing it all
crashing down, the bell has finally run aground
homeward bound, fading faster to the deep blue sound
you're made of steel
i want you to feel again close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
oh, i want you to feel again close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
and i'd risk it all again for you to be close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
and i'd risk it all again for you to be close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
and i'd risk it all again for you to be close to me
tell me where did this go wrong
tell me where did this go wrong
2.Into The Fire
i need to hear you say you'll hold the line
pulling me this way
and all the while, counting the moment
to see my name in lights
i want to see them, the city lights so bright
running away from love tonight
running away from love tonight
i've sailed for this life
i should have run to you tonight
lay on a ship that's set to sail away
i was born to move and stir inside of you
now there's just one, one way to go
and i've been back down that road
i've seen the limits
the city calls, i want to fell it
somehow, through the miles, i hope you feel it too
running away from love tonight
running away from love tonight
i've sailed for this life
i should have run to you tonight
oh and i always want you there
oh and i know, i know it's not fair
oh and can't take away your fear
but i'm yours dear
now there's just one, one way to go
and i've been back down that road
i've seen the limit
the city lights so bright
running away from love tonight
running away from love tonight
i've sailed for this life
i should have run to you tonight
i should have run to you
i should have run to you
3.Pride
lines, repeating patterns and signs
it's all a function of what i am
and my foolish pride
mistakes i've made
regrets you have drunkenly set
a crushing cause to surrender
the night is drenched in it
i feel the wind on my face and this stirring inside
love cannot hide, hide (bittersweet surrender)
behind foolish pride
cold, the car is so cold
the backseat makes me dizzy
it swallowed us whole
we've taken a turn for the worse
honey, we're cursed
it's no longer survival
it's unquenchable thirst
i feel the wind on my face and this stirring inside
love cannot hide, hide (bittersweet surrender)
my foolish pride
i feel the wind on my face and this stirring inside
i cannot hide, hide (bittersweet surrender)
behind foolish pride
we were so young to be so near
to the edge of the world
we were so young to be so near
to the edge of the world
i feel the wind on my face and this stirring inside
love cannot hide, hide (bittersweet surrender)
my foolish pride
i feel the wind on my face and this stirring inside
love cannot hide, hide (bittersweet surrender)
my foolish pride
love cannot hide, hide...
my foolish pride
4.St. Augustine
walking down a deserted street
hoping for a stranger passing by to meet
the sand swirls around the lamp light
cautiously moving through the night
so lonely in st. augustine
so empty, all i do is dream
like the like the lighthouse guides ships to the shore
the light guides me to the water
so lonely in st. augustine
so empty, all i do is dream
i wanna throw myself into the ocean
but i look back and i see you on the shore
5.Something To Hold On To
what a beautiful day
something to hold onto
wearing nothing but a string of pearls 'round your neck
shy, perfect, and so new
sparks fly in a hurricane beneath the eye
hold tight
when life is shaking you, don't, don't, don't
don't let go
i've found something to hold on to
to hold on to
you sound sad
clouds on a brilliant sky
and we're still alive
even if we're holding on for dear life
sparks fly in hurricane beneath the eye
hold tight
when life is shaking you, don't, don't, don't
don't let go
i've found something to hold on to
to hold on to
keeping one eye glued to the world
the storm breaks in a passionate swirl
i've found something to hold on to
i can hold on to you
i can hold on to...
oh the darkest day
when the ground starts to shake
i'll be here
on the darkest day
in the pouring rain
hold on tight
don't let this slip away
don't, don't, don't
don't let go
i've found something to hold on to
to hold on to
don't, don't, don't
don't let go
i've found something to hold on to
to hold on to
keeping one eye glued to the world
the storm breaks in a passionate swirl
i've found something to hold on to
i can hold on to you
i can hold on to...
6.Always With You
now i will be the one to unlock the mystery
and given time and faith
her steps i will retrace
a long a tortured year
i swear it will not rain
your rosebush on the hill
has bloomed and blown away
heaven, strike me down
strike me down
always with you
i will be always with you now
always with you
i will be always with you now
i built this house from the ground
laid stones with my own hands
a final resting place
side by side, rains soak the land
heaven, strike me down
strike me down
heaven, strike me down
strike me down
always with you
i will be always with you now
always with you
i will be always with you now
stars burn within you
i will be the first to follow
always with you
i will be always with you now
(always, always, always, always with you now...)
(heaven, strike me, strike me down...)
the light in your eyes keeps me awake
then it bears down, love, i can't escape
your gorgeous face above, looking down on me
in your arms again, i will always be
always with you
i will be always with you now
always with you
i will be always with you now
stars burn within you
i will be the first to follow
always with you
i will be always with you now
always, always, always, always with you now
always, always, i will be always with you now
