Wake up, everybody's leaving.
Daylight has a way of creeping up, when you're in love, when you're in love. Sickness, everybody has it, mine just happens to be hidden. And you, what about you? What about you? Chorus: I won't even begin, telling you how sorry I am. Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so alone. Real life, we were never in it, Seemed like trouble to begin with. But I, never refused, I never refused. So don't stop, better keep it moving, Although, memories are soothing, I, can never go back, never go back. I won't even begin, telling you how sorry I am. Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so alone. I'm feeling like a child Like someone might find out I shouldn't be here at all But these things do come around And it may as well be my turn to take it all I won't even begin telling you how sorry I am Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so alone I won't even begin telling you how sorry I am Those days, moving so slow, I kept it alive not to be so alone |

She's a feeler and I love her for that
No matter how long I will always come back There's a bond that we share, it will always be there She may be holding but I love her for that There are reasons that I'm out here so far Blows are weaker from an ocean apart And I guess I could run from my place in the sun She wouldn't let me, and I love her for that And oh you steal her You love her and deceive her She did nothing so wrong, so wrong Voice of angels, ended quick by his knife Bonds are broken between a man and his wife And the songs that are left to remind of the theft She'll let you sing them, and I love her for that |

CAPO 2
These are letters I don't write Every evening I give up the fight And I see beauty in every day But the beauty of words won't come my way And I don't care what you think about love I've heard stories, honest and true Flowing rivers that lead into you And things get easy when you let them out But you pack in your pain 'til you're ready to shout And I don't care what you think I'll just sit here, here on the brink of love And it's a long way down You should have held my hand I liked you better when you lied You were more to the point And you looked me in the eye with love These are letters I don't write Every evening I give up the fight And I see beauty in every day But the beauty of words won't come my way And I don't care what you think I'll just sit here, here on the brink of love I don't care what you think I'll just sit here, here on the brink of love |

There you sit with the TV on
It could be work but it looks like fun You must be happy that I came home now Now you've been practicing your furrowed brow Everybody gets along with everyone It's so easy Everybody gets along with everyone The debonair in the way you dress Is taken absolutely from the best Brando and Monty had some kind of style And you've been working on your west coast smile Everybody gets along with everyone It's so easy Everybody gets along with everyone Now you're out there in the big spotlight But was there something you forgot to hide? Stranded naked in the cruelest wind Armed with nothing but your boyish grin Everybody gets along with everyone It's so easy Everybody gets along with everyone It's so easy |

I miss you tonight in the company of new friends
I can't seem to speak my mind The city is so real, the people look through me And everyone knows my sign All that I see All that I see here is you I'm wreckless out here where time has no meaning The nights seem to last for days But the time that I spend and the ones who are with me They don't pretend to stay All that I see All that I see here is you And it's too late, it's too late to try Separation is so hard to find All that I see here is you So listen up now For the sake of my own life This one is for you |

CAPO 3
It was getting late Am But she said let's stay And you can help me smile But the lights went up And the music stopped And all her mystery died She was looking for someone to carry her through She was looking for a way to keep it all new So she took my hand And we tipped the band And went along the way But the night was young And she needed fun Or so she liked to say She was looking for someone to carry her through She was looking for a way to keep it all new So lay your head on mine And stay with me tonight So we spent the night And the morning light Crept across the bed And we said goodbye Without meeting eyes And that was all we said She was looking for someone to carry her through She was looking for a way to keep it all new |

It's not so much that you left
It's that you didn't come back It's not the pain that you felt But the obvious lack I was always a step behind I was always a step behind It wasn't watching you go But the way that you went With a kiss on the cheek And a cheque for the rent I was always a step behind I was always a step behind It wasn't really your fault Because you made it mine too While you were looking around I was looking at you I was always a step behind I was always a step behind And I hope you remember when it comes around The gentle release of letting me down And the way that it felt To be high on yourself Blindly running into the new I haven't re-learned to walk It's hard to learn that And it wasn't the fall It was the push in the back I was always a step behind I was always a step behind I didn't see it coming up from behind I was always a step behind |

Wake up and check the mail
Hoping to find a letter from you But all I find are missing children Turn on the morning news Hoping to see a resemblance of you But all I see are missing children Tell me - do you miss me like a missing child Trying to start my day Pouring the coffee, reach for the milk And the carton says...have you seen these children So I go to church and pray Down on my knees when the plate comes with "Please give what you can for the missing children" Tell me - do you miss me like a missing child And I do feel bad for faces in my face all day But the circumstance means I can't think of anything but you No I can't care for anyone but you So I try to get away Whole different place but the signs are the same There's always more, more missing children And when I close my eyes I used to dream sweet dreams of you Now all my dreams are missing children And I miss you - I miss you like a missing child Yeah I miss you - I miss you like a missing child |

CAPO 5
I bet you think it's over The misery is gone Turn your back and promise Days in the park The hours that we wasted Reading our lines Ribbons that I gave you Fall like pine needles to the ground Your heart is safe, it can't be found And the postcards that you send Excuses for the letters you can't write And don't you think I care When you don't come home at night It's always something special That brings you home You're better on occasions To let me know The pleasures of your new life Lead you away The path of least resistance There's always a safe way to let me see The things you try your best to feel And the postcards that you send Excuses for the letters that you can't write And don't you think I care When you don't come home at night I wonder if you see it As something you've done Turn your back and promise Days in the park |
