Rescue (Live)

I need a rescue, someone to catch my tears
Falling aloud, breaking through the pavement
Slipping through the cracks and holes,
Leading to your soul
I'm the only one who knows
I swear I'll never let it show
I look for you tonight
Searching for your eyes between the lights
A sparkle of gold, a call for rescue
Are you finding your disguise?
Or have you had a change of mind
I need a rescue
I need a rescue, someone to save this town
The bridge has fallen down, the streets have come undone
There's nothing left besides
This trash can sun
Are you standing around it, keeping yourself warm?
Awaiting the dawn
I look for you tonight
Searching for your eyes between the lights
A sparkle of gold, a call for rescue
Are you finding your disguise?
Or have you had a change of mind
I need a rescue

Pray (Live)
04:01
|

|
I'm patiently waiting and then needlessly pacing
And looking to the skies
'Cause my life's been changing so quickly lately
I've lost faith in my mind
I'll own up and say it I haven't been praying
To the big guy in the sky
But when desperate times call
For desperate measures
I'll give it a try
I get right down on my hands and knees and I pray
I pray and hope, I hope for rain
A rain to wash my fears away
Away down stream, a stream that leads
Into the deep blue sea
I've been counting my days up and by my calculations
I think it's time to take a bow
But where will I go when this show is all over
And the curtain comes down?
I'll own up and say it I haven't been paying
For the sins in my life
So I beg my forgiveness and hope my confessions
Will buy me some time
And I get right down on my hands and knees and I pray
I pray and hope, I hope for rain
A rain to wash my fears away
Away down stream, a stream that leads
Into the deep blue sea
I pray and hope, I hope for rays
The rays of sunshine to light my way
My way up hill, a hill that leads
Into the fields of green

Chapters (Live)

You could spend your whole life
Looking for someone to love
Then two come along at once
You could sail the oceans
With your heart out on a hook
And end up without a bite
Love is like a deep sea
We're swimming in the darkness alone
But treasures can be found
If you dive a little deeper down
And if you rise to catch your breath
You'll see the wonders of the world
Before your eyes
And then you'll realise
That you know you'll be alright
You could spend your lifetime
Forgetting all that you have done
And not remember where you've come from
You could count your hours
And minutes underneath the sun
And wonder where the day has gone
Life not a mystery
We watch it as it all unfolds
The clues are all around
Like the pieces in a puzzle box
And when they fit in place
You see the bigger picture
And you'll know, that you knew it all along
That you're right where you belong
If you walk down the same street
You'll never know what's round the corner
If you stay on the same page
You'll never close the chapter
If you bury all your dreams
They may come back to haunt you
So make the most of life
And set your sights high

Theme For A Dream (Live)
04:25
|

|
Let the sunrise over your tired eyes
And the day will pass in time
I will hold you close
And I won't let go
Until the midnight strikes and chimes
I hope to God I wake up lying by your side
As our world comes falling back
I hope to God I wake up blinded by a light
As our world comes falling back to earth
We went walking through the coldest night
And you held my hand so tight
All the street lights flickered passing by
And the moon hung silent in the sky
I hope to God I wake up lying by your side
As our world comes falling back
I hope to God I wake up blinded by a light
As our world comes falling back to earth

|
I grew up in a northern town but over time I've headed south
And though I've changed along the way
My thoughts of home will never fade
Now I'm halfway down the road and it's too late to turn back now
So if you want to take my hand I will give you all I can
And if you want to stay tonight then lady lay down by my side
There are things you can't replace like memories of younger days
Throwing caution to the wind not afraid of anything
Now I'm halfway down the road but it's too late to turn back now
So if you want to take my hand I will give you all I can
But if you want to leave tonight you know I won't be far behind
I want to make a brand new start but leaving is the hardest part
So I'll sleep on it tonight but I'll be gone before the morning light
Because I'm halfway down the road and it's too late to turn back now
It's too late to turn back now

One For You (Live)

We could talk for hours, we could talk for days
But it's getting late and I really shouldn't stay
As we say our long goodbyes, I make my way into the night
And as I walk alone, I'll always think of you
What a night it's been
Oh what a day
It all came together in the end
There's one thing you can rely upon
That it's all relative
You can bet your life on it
You will always have a friend
I could listen to a thousand songs about love
But there's nothing like the real thing
So here's one for you, lets drink until we can't remember
What we were drinking, what were we thinking
We were drinking for
What a night it's been
Oh what a day
It all came together in the end
There's one thing you can rely upon
That it's all relative
You can bet your life on it
You will always have a friend
You will always have a friend
You will always have a friend

Tricks (Live)
05:06
|

|
I always keep a trick up my sleeve just in case I need it
I've been gambling my way through these bars with holes in my pockets
I gave it some time and when time came around
I found I still ended up where I'd started
And at the end of the night, as the whole town shuts down
I always walk away broken hearted
Love is a hard game to play
Sometimes you think you've sussed it out but then you give it all away
And those jokers will catch you out like an ace of spades
Love is a hard game to play
I'm laying my hands down, right where you can see them
I've got nothing to hide, and nothing to lose
I'm an honest guy, and that's my problem
I keep telling myself that I'm not the fool
But who am I kidding when I'm trying to play it cool
I'll give it all up someday I swear, but until then I'll keep learning that
Love is a hard game to play
Sometimes you think you've sussed it out but then you give it all away
And those jokers will catch you out like an ace of spades
Love is a hard game to play
Love is a hard game to play
Sometimes you think you've sussed it out but then you give it all away
And those jokers will catch you out like an ace of spades
Love is a hard
Love is hard
Love is a hard game to play

Broken (Live)
04:03
|

Your heart is a mystery that I can't solve I
Follow your eyes to see what truths they hold and
Looking back I face the fact
I tried my best to love you
I never thought I could do
But hearts they fall apart when they're
Broken
Your heart is a snow flake so delicate it
Lands and melts away in lovers hands as
Seasons change I feel the same
I never meant to hurt you
I never thought I could do
But hearts they fall apart when they're
Broken

Day One (Live)
05:56
|
|||
|
I am just human
Flesh, blood and bones
I am just a figure
A shadow on the wall
The small steps that I follow
From here to there and back
With everything that I've borrowed
And all I've ever had
With every stitch and every stone
I will stand tall
But what if I can't, what if I can't
Save the world tonight
What if I, what if I can't
Day one with no confessions
Blindfolded empty handed
Years on with folded arms and older vision
We hide behind our eyelids
With every stitch and every stone
I will stand tall
But what if I can't, what if I can't
Save the world tonight
What if I, what if I can't
Would you feel something
Would you feel something
Would you feel anything at all

Sometimes a heart will break, sometimes that's all it takes
To see the real truth, to find a better you
Sometimes when I'm wide awake, sometimes I fall asleep
I'm getting to old for this but I won't grow out of it
I'll sing a song for a sad soul
There's nothing wrong or so I've been told
I'll make it up as I go along
But I'm lost for words
And my direction home
Some people photograph, some people always last
In others hearts and minds and never fade with time
Some people never cry, some people ask them why
They keep it bottled up inside and carry the weight of life
Some people never change they only grow with age
I'm growing up again, undoing my mistakes
I'll sing a song for a sad soul
There's nothing wrong or so I've been told
I'll make it up as I go along
But I'm lost for words
And my direction home
