Staring down these days ahead
And the days gone by All these regrets Best make room for love Seems we're always racing With trouble too close behind We may never win But where there's still hope There's still time Why blame ourselves at all For promises we never made Though I'd blame myself If I should lose your love Always some bridge to cross Or some mountain to climb But all is not lost Sure as the stars above There's still time Still time to find what We've been looking for Still time to find out There's no need to search anymore For love Staring down these days ahead And the days gone by All these regrets Best make room for love There's still time |

When the world is wearing me down
And the wind is throwing its weight around So cold, it blows right through me I need your love I sure could use your love Right about now They say every soul needs searching But I just don't know where to begin Give me something to go on I need your love I sure could use your love Right about now Now that it's late and I see things so clearly Must be something I can do I feel like calling but it's much too early for you So I'm up here writing this song But tonight the words have come out wrong Think I'll just let my heart speak I sure could use your love Right about now I need your love Wish I could feel your love |

High above it all
These words have lingered on "I won't let you fall" Though I must have heard it wrong Cos I've been lying here Seems all these broken songs Have fallen on deaf ears Oh, I must have heard it wrong It's time I got used to it We've all been left behind But I can't make the pieces fit Hard as I try Oh, when will I learn Believing for so long As if I had faith to burn Though I must have heard you wrong I can't make the pieces fir Hard as I try Behind this starry wall I turned and then walked on Thought I heard a star fall Though I must have heard it wrong Thought I heard a star fall Though I must have heard it wrong |

Riverbed, I'll lay my head upon your pillow
And watch the waves go flowing by Riverbed, underneath the weeping willow I'll sleep until the sunlight fills the sky Never said, "I would be your super hero" I never said, "That I was strong" Riverbed, I'll lay my head upon your pillow If you'd just let this night go on and on 'Cos everything I felt before Don't make much sense to me anymore And everything I'm feeling now I can only dream about Riverbed, I'll lay my head upon your pillow And watch the waves go flowing by Riverbed, underneath the weeping willow I'll sleep until the sunlight fills the sky River runs so cold and clear You'd think it must be heaven's mirror And like the leaves I'm on the ground Old Jack is back in town Riverbed, I'll lay my head upon your pillow And watch the waves go flowing by Riverbed, underneath the weeping willow I'll sleep until the sunlight fills the sky I'll sleep until the sunlight fills the sky |

How I hate to see you this way I feel for you, Love
Is there nothing, I can say to cheer you up? For I see your face is filled with so much sorrow Wish I could make it disappear Before this night is through with us I feel for you, Love I feel for you, Love How I've tried to see the good side I feel for you, Love You see all the years going by and you can't get off But it's not that way, time is all we're taking For our own sake just let it go Before it makes a fool of us Before its too late in the game to change anything Is it too late in the game to change anything? How I hate to see you this way I feel for you, Love Is there nothing, I can say to cheer you up? For I see your face is filled with so much sorrow Wish I could make it disappear Before this night is through with us I feel for you, Love Is it too late in the game to change anything? Is it too late in the game to change anything? Is it too late in the game to change anything? Is it too late in the game to change anything? |

The end must come for some good reason
I've heard it said before To everything a time and season What was this season for? In a flash, in a flash There one moment and gone in a flash Think of all the strangers you've encountered In cafes or subway trains Or lined up at this water fountain One drink and on your way In a flash, in a flash There one moment and gone in a flash When hopes are rising like a rocket When cups are overflowing When hearts were filled like children's pockets It's then I'll hear your song In a flash, in a flash There one moment and gone in a flash Our eyes can't help but disbelieve this Bad news and even though The end must come for some good reason Right now I just don't know In a flash, in a flash There one moment and gone in a flash There one moment Gone in a flash |

God so loved the idiot boy
He gave him a pair of eyes to explore Gave him a pair of hands to destroy Any good thing that he found Put this kid in a candy store Let him run around until he drops Then just like a bull in a China shop Everything came crashing down God so loved the idiot boy That he filled the nights with dreams Till dusty sunlight beams Danced upon the floor Gave him a solo in the choir Where songs of wild desire Were all his voice was for Lo lo lo lo lo lo God so loved the idiot world He gave it his only son to kick around That was long ago in another town It could use a good laugh now God so loved the idiot world Gave him a solo in the choir Where songs of wild desire Were all his voice was for Lo lo lo lo lo God so loved the idiot boy He gave him coffee grounds in a paper cup And a reason everyday to keep getting up In a world that drags you down God so loved the idiot boy God so loved the idiot boy God so loved the idiot boy |

If I had all this time on my hands
Well I would love to share it with you And though our days have made other plans But there is nothing I'd rather do Than sit and talk with you My beautiful view The squinting of her eyes when she smiles The glinting of sun in her hair She wets her lips and takes a sip of Her tea as I try not to stare And though I try not to It's such beautiful view Oh my heart What's all the commotion about? For so long I guess you've been going without With all these numbers staring me down And all this stormy weather so gray So many grim reminders Of how much I have lost along the way But you remind me, it's true Of a beautiful view Well there is nothing I'd rather do Than sit and talk with you My beautiful view All I wanna do Is take a walk, girl, with you My beautiful view |

You can count on many things to let you down
You can take you plans And stick 'em six feet underground Wouldn't your time be better spent on days to come? Not the ones that went And left you on a doorstep one grey morning But there's a rumour and everybody's so convinced But you don't believe Your eyes have seen no evidence Of any good left in this town Of any need to be hanging around But you'll leave the sun behind you one grey morning One grey morning One of many grey mornings Always turning up without warning One grey morning One of many dream orphans Always turning up on your doorstep You follow up on all the leads that lead nowhere Trying to recognize The need inside that led you there You'll either listen to your heart Or go drown it out in a noisy bar 'Til you're overcome by the silence one grey morning One grey morning One of many grey mornings Always turning up without warning One grey morning One of many dream orphans Always turning up on your doorstep One grey morning Like today Wouldn't your time be better spent on days to come? Not the ones that went And left you on a doorstep one grey morning One grey morning One of many dream orphans Always turning up on your doorstep One grey morning Like today |

Can't believe our luck sometimes
Anyway things will fall apart And somedays it seems as though We were doomed from the start But I can't believe that fate Would have such a cruel heart Though somedays it seems I know We were doomed from the start When all the world's asleep And the night is quiet and still Your love returns to me As if sent from above to my window sill So, we'll take the good times then We'll take on its counterpart If this love was meant to be Not doomed from the start Your love returns to me As if sent from above to my window sill So, we'll take the good times then We'll take on its counterpart If this love was meant to be Not doomed from the start If this love was meant to be Not doomed from the start |

And up above me its the same old sky
Be it blue or be it grey And more do I wonder What goes on behind Every passing day The voice of reason is seldom heard But fear and ignorance have their say I need more than ever To hear a kind word With every passing day Every passing day But the more I see The more I feel The more I need To know for sure what is real Every passing day And the more I see The more I feel The more I need To know for sure what is real What is real? And from the pavement flowers grow From the shadows children play I'm feeling stronger In my heart I know With every passing day, Every passing day ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By SEXSMITH <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |
