Take Me Back

Take me back to the place
Where I once belonged
This could be anyplace a place
Where you and I could sing this song

Take me back where I hear waterfalls flowing

Let me dive into the lake
Where winter hides the snow
Then comes the summertime
Fields of scarlet poppies grow

Take me back where I see butterflies toing froing

And the river flows
I am never gonna take it back again
And the river flows
I am never gonna get it back again

We don't know anything
Trapped in a world full of strangers
Please don't tell me anything
I'd rather fall into you

Let me sleep a little while
Underneath the trees
And dream of dragonflies
Where the weary willow weeps for me

Take me back where I see dandelions blowing

And the river flows
I am never gonna take it back again
And the river flows
I am never gonna get it back again

We don't know anything
Trapped in a world full of strangers
Please don't tell me anything
I'd rather fall into you

 

 


I Love Saturday

If they'd ever have told me
That I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry till tomorrow
Would I keep the non-believers away

Remember that late night last September
When you held me in your arms so tight
I was feeling kind of low my heart was blue
I was empty till you came
But oh what a...

Saturday night
Things were going right
As right as they'd ever been
I know that you love me

If they'd ever have told me
That I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry till tomorrow
Would I keep the non-believers away

Was I shy
Was I good with this foolish heart
Did I try to deny we would fall apart

Like a knight in shining armour you came over
To save me what a bolt out of the blue
Just one look into those eyes
You had me fallen completely
Head over heels in love with you
But oh what a...

Saturday night
Things were going right
As right as they'd ever been
I know that you love me

If they'd ever have told me
That I'd find true love in every way
Would I cry till tomorrow
Would I keep the non-believers away

Was I shy
Was I good with this foolish heart
Did I try to deny we would fall
Did I try to deny we would fall a...
Did I try to deny we would fall apart

 

 

Man In The Moon

Stories from the deepest
Part of my heart
Delving under cause to wonder
Why am I falling apart

Scattered all around
This topsy turvy room
Will I find the one
Who takes me there too soon

When the night is cold
And you can't find anything
And your will to survive's
At an all time low

The spirit will fly and return
With a new found energy
So keep it within and delight
As your garden grows

Whispered in some lonesome voice
Too afraid to come out of the dark
Sinking down into the covers
Sleep to the beat of your heart

Spinning all around
This most peculiar room
Will I find the one
Who takes me there too soon

Do be kind
And civilised
And don't descend
Into the dark abyss

The spirit will fly and return
With a new found energy
So keep it within and delight
As your garden grows

And the man up in the moon is shining
Good fortune down on me
And the man up in the moon is shining
Sweet love
Sweet love

 

 

So The Story Goes

I close my eyes
To the sound of the sky and I see
Birds in the trees in pastures green

Nothing to do
With the time or the place I perceive
The rush of the sea beneath my feet

Such a lovely world
Oh so magical
Precious like a pearl
Wrapped up in a shell
Build your house of stone
On a bed of sand
Time and tide will rise
Washing through your hands

Hear your heart
See the love
Feel the soul lift up
Hear your heart
See the love
Feel the soul lift up

I lift my eyes
To the sound in the sky and I hear it
A voice on the breeze is so serene

Nothing to do
With the time or the place but I feel it
Like dust on the moon beneath my feet

Such a lovely world
Oh so magical
So the story goes
Sing the madrigal
What a lovely world
Waxing lyrical
See the lies unfold
Hear the miracle

So the story goes...
The lies and the miracle unfold

 

 


Run To The Sun

For the first time in my life
I'm up to run away
It's not a choice that I made easily

It's not that I'm ashamed
To face the light of day
It's really just a case of self delusion

And I know it ain't easy
I know it ain't easy
I know it ain't easy
To see the truth

So run to the sun
Here's one for the road
And may God's love go with you
My tears are starting to show
Woah...

Run to the sun
And may God's love go with you
I cry my tears
Who will be my hero

That I should fall from grace
Implies a twist of fate
But I'm open to the joys and woes of passion

And who shall take the wheel
When it's time for overkill
There's no release when destiny is calling

And I know it ain't easy
Somebody reach me
Willing to teach me

So run to the sun
Here's one for the road
Though I'll never be lonely
Are you so high above me?
Woah...

Run to the sun
See how my life is changing
The days go by
I wonder if I'll make it

 

Always

Open your eyes I see
Your eyes are open
Wear no disguise for me
Come into the open

When it's cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

Melting the ice for me
Jump into the ocean
Hold back the tide I see
Your love in motion

When it's cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame

Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love

 

 

All Through The Years

Longing to sail on
Through the night to the stars
On until sunrise
Where the moon hides her tears
All through the years

If I could see the world through someone else's eyes
If I could see through you would I cast you to one side
And if you gave it all would I throw it all away
Like the leaves in autumn winds

From the window in the kitchen
To the fireside by the chair
Sat in familiar surroundings warm night air
Under the bridges that were burning
Before we reached the other side
All the feelings I remember I cannot hide
Not for want of trying

And if you held me here would the moment fade away
Into obscurity like the night becomes the day
For all the broken promises tell me where do I begin
To throw my caution to the wind

Longing to sail on
Through the night to the stars
On until sunrise

Where the moon hides her tears
All through the years

All through the years, all through the years
All through the years, all through the years
All through the years, all through the years

 

 

Blues Away

Can you see this predilection
Rushing through my head
Was a morning full of circumstance
I was seeing red
Put my blues away

Navigation gone astray
Went any way I could
Haven't got the time of day
Cannot see why I should
Put my blues away

I can hope
I can pray
Until you
Find me
Someday

Always had my reservations
Who am I to blame
Walked into the ring of fire
Heart in a wall of flames
Put my blues away

My emotion running riot
Through the neighbourhood
Screaming in the dead of night
I wish to be understood
Put my blues away

Hey little darling
Tell me where you are 'cause
I ain't got 20/20 vision

And I know you're here somewhere
And it's nearly bedtime
And I'm getting lonely

 

 


Miracle

It won't be easy it won't be hard
To find the reason to find the rhyme
To get your feet back on the ground
To get your feet back on the ground

We'll be going home
Where the passion
Finds the perfect love
Finds the perfect love

We'll be going home
Where the passion
Covers me with love
Covers me with love

It won't be out there it can't be far
Falls like a teardrop to the star
A wall of silence all around
A wall of silence all around

The miracle of love
Blinds me with your charms
The miracle of love
Take me in your arms

We'll be going home
Where the passion
Covers me with love
Covers me with love 

 

 

Because You're So Sweet

Because you're so sweet
You lift up my heart
And I'll fall back again
But I don't know
Quite which way to turn

The light in your eyes
Touches the sky
And I'm your man again
And you hold me
As close as close can be

And many's the time
That you've enchanted me
Now I want you back
Here in my loving arms
For eternity

You look and you smile
Warm me inside
Cause you're so good to me
A beauty
Filled with the joys of spring

No love is too pure
To give to the world
In her naivety
Or too tender
To caress with a simple kiss

And many's the time
That you've enchanted me
I want you back
Back in my loving arms
For eternity
