Trick of the Night
02:58
|
|||
All the uncertainty, ice melting can’t you see
We’re losing track of what’s right
Filled with bureaucracy, stubborn hypocrisy
We have a night left to fight for what’s right
But they keep on telling us lies
We dare them, come here and defy
An age old trick of the night
We say do it in the daylight
Battles are raging while they’re contemplating
The state of the oil prices in our backyards
How can we think that their actions acceptable
Surely we’ll rise up and fight for what’s ours
But they keep on telling us lies
We dare them, come here and defy
An age old trick of the night
We say do it in the daylight
Can we go back to the peace that we found
Try to hold on as we turn it around
Can we go back to the peace that we found
Try to hold on as we turn it around
But they keep on telling us lies
We dare them, come here and defy
An age old trick of the night
We say do it in the daylight
Can we go back to the peace that we found
Try to hold on as we turn it around
Can we go back to the peace that we found
Try to hold on as we turn it around

We are the Lucky Ones
04:02
|
|||
There’s a certain conversation and it happens even more
We get angry at the friendships, then watch them go out the door
Out the door
Well there’s something deep inside you, it’s the voice that’s in your head
If you’d only stop to listen, you wont end up sick to death
Sick to death
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones today
You see faceless people walking, and spot people in a trance
Well now what’s the use of trying to make friends without a mask
Without a mask
You are haunted by the footsteps of the people from your past
Always just one step behind you, but you never get a glance
Get a glance
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones today
How long will this be
When, when, when will everyone else see
That united we will stand
Every boy, girl , woman and man
Well it's hate that drives the fear
Or it's fear that drives the hate
But instead of getting angry
Can we love for goodness sake
Goodness Sake
If we stand firm with our love
And our tolerance increased
Maybe we could stop the violence
And our world would live in peace
Live in peace
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones
Some Days we are the lonely ones
The lonely ones
But today we are the lucky ones
The lucky ones

Shadow
03:14
|

An old wind blows down the hallway
The doors left open again
A cold wind blows down the walkway
All my efforts are in vain
Can we take the pathway to heaven
Are you an angel I don’t know
Can you hear they are saying
I will be the one to fall
Something stopped me from saying
Cut my actions in two
If I’d done what I’d wanted
Would I still be with you
Can we take the pathway to heaven
Are you an angel I don’t know
Can you hear they are saying
I will be the one to fall
When you walk you’re a shadow
Full of bitterness and rage
When you talk, you sound so low
Only I am afraid
Heard they blew out the candle
Burnt a long time ago
You have haunted me in my dreams
How will you ever know
Can we take the pathway to heaven
Are you an angel I don’t know
Can you hear they are saying
I will be the one to fall
Ooo
Ooo
I will fall

She went to fly through a land of old souls
Ringing the bell to wake them as it tolled
She asked them politely for wine or good cheer
But they looked at her blankly just drinking their beer
Well the daughter of one who was sucking her thumb
Greeted her kindly, if somewhat blindly
Then the father he noticed his daughter and said
Don’t turn around dear, go back to bed
And the lights will guide her home
For she’s out here all alone
She flew through the village and then through the towns
Never laughing or joking, but just looking down
Then she spotted a river and she just had to look
And she saw an old man who was reading a book
He said Girl you must leave here, it’s not your time
One day you’ll see it, and you will be fine
So she took to the sky and went high as she dared
And the people all drinking were specks in the air
And the lights will guide her home
For she’s out there all alone
She will join them when she must
But the old souls are all dust
In years to come she will find it again
Full of the tales of the women and men
Who have showed her the way
Try as they might
Then on her last day
She will take flight
And the lights will guide her home
She's not out there all alone
She has joined them when she must
All the souls of stars and dust
And the lights will guide her home.

Little Fears
02:34
|
|||
When I woke up this morning
The sun was shining bright
Your arms were wrapped around me
Like they had been through the night
Let’s stay like this forever
For days and weeks and years
Cos when you’re here you take away
All my little fears
I can sleep, I can dream
A thousand things with you
Never lost, always happy
With the things that you do
If you knew what I feel
I think you’d be happy too
Hold you tight
Through the night
For the rest of our lives
When I stepped off the plane that day
And I saw you standing there
Your smile was so infectious
And I never had a care
Just staying like this forever
For all the time we have
And looking in your eyes it makes my
Heart and soul so glad
I can sleep, I can dream
A thousand things with you
Never lost, always happy
With the things that you do
If you knew how I feel
I think you’d be happy too
Hold you tight
Through the night
For the rest of our lives
Ooo
Ooo
I can sleep, I can dream
A thousand things with you
Never lost, always happy
With the things that you do
If you knew what I feel
I think you’d be happy too
Hold you tight
Through the night
For the rest of our lives

Time Will Never Stop
02:18
|
|||
One day, you’ll walk down that road and you’ll follow your own shadow.
Come what may, you’ll of seen it all before, every ceiling, every floor and every latch on every door.
And time can go so quickly, no time will never stop. And if you’re lucky you will use up all the time you’ve got.
Take it from me, I’ve sat around too long, writing words to many songs that go nowhere. Don’t get stuck, inside your little rut, get out and see the world before it shuts down.
And time can go so quickly, no time will never stop. And if you’re lucky you will use up all the time you’ve got.
Take pride in your family, take solace in your friends. And don’t you stop until your journey comes to an end.
And time is the only one. It’s the only one you can’t run from.
No time is the only one. It’s the only one you can’t run from.
And time can go so quickly, no time will never stop. And if you’re lucky you will use up all the time you’ve got.
Take pride in your family, take solace in your friends. And don’t you stop until your journey comes to an end.

Last Goodbye
03:26
|
|||
The times that we laughed out loud
The times that we cried
The times that you looked at me with those eyes
I knew that you hooked me then
I finally saw
Your heart and your hurt so I walked out that door
Every time I kiss you, you will see me cry
Cos every time I’m with you, it’s like the last goodbye
There’s a place in my mind
I’m there all the time
I wonder if you go? Would you see it too
Inside you’re hurting, I know you too well
Don’t try to hide it from me cos I can tell
Every time I kiss you, you might see me cry
Cos every time I’m with you, it's like the last goodbye
Maybe tomorrow.
Could be today
I’ll tell you a story where we don’t end up this way
Take time don’t worry, I’ll be here for you
Come back to my life, I miss you
Cos every time I kiss you, you won't see me cry.
Cos every time I’m with you, it’s not the last goodbye.
Every time I kiss you, you won't see me cry.
Cos every time I’m with you, it’s not the last goodbye.
Every time I kiss you, you won't see me cry.
Cos every time I’m with you, it’s not the last goodbye.

Jupiter
03:42
|

And we’ll find it. We will find it
We will find that shooting star
You’re the one who shows me, who I am and what I can be
When this day is done I’ll take you by the hand
And we’ll go far from here.
We’ll run into the sun
And we’ll find it. We will find it
We will find that shooting star
And we’ll ride it, past the planets
See Jupiter and Mars
See Jupiter from the stars
Our lives are so much clearer
The walls have been knocked down
And if your waking moments scare you half to death
Take my hand
I wont let you drown
And we’ll find it. We will find it
We will find that shooting star
And we’ll ride it, past the planets
See Jupiter and Mars
See Jupiter from the stars
Every day you will astound me
Every time I’ll be amazed
And if I ever let you down my love
I promise we wont end that way
And we’ll find it. We will find it
We will find that shooting star
And we’ll ride it, past the planets
See Jupiter and Mars
See Jupiter from the stars
Oh
Oh
Oh
Just you and me
