When everything you have goes away
You realize that nothing means a thing
Everything you thought was a big deal
Now you see it all and what is real
When all you have just falls apart
And nothing seems to work out right
And you’re trying
You’re still alright
When everything starts to feel the same
And everyone around you seems to change
You went along with me when things weren’t right
And when the morning slowly fades to night
When all you have just falls apart
And nothing seems to work out right
And you’re trying
You’re still alright

Everything Has Changed
You turn me on
And you turn me down
You pick me up
When I’m on the ground
You tune me in
And you tune me out
What was then
Is not now
Lonely days and winter skies
Melts away into summertime
And it’s alright
Yeah it’s ok
When everyone and everything has changed
You give it up
You run around
When you try to stop
You just fall down
You put it in
And you pull it out
What you did last night
You lost somehow
You kill the lights
You see them run
They try to hide
And see no one
You got too close
You saw the lie
It could not wait
You had no where to go
And you turn me down
You pick me up
When I’m on the ground
You tune me in
And you tune me out
What was then
Is not now
Lonely days and winter skies
Melts away into summertime
And it’s alright
Yeah it’s ok
When everyone and everything has changed
You give it up
You run around
When you try to stop
You just fall down
You put it in
And you pull it out
What you did last night
You lost somehow
You kill the lights
You see them run
They try to hide
And see no one
You got too close
You saw the lie
It could not wait
You had no where to go
This Is How You Are
Soon he’s on his way
Soon he’s on his way
And the doctor told me I should know
There’s something that has caused this to happen
All the days and all our nights
Waiting for his eyes to open
Soon he’s on his way
Soon he’s on his way
And it cuts into you like a knife
It tears you up and leaves you on the table
And all this time we felt the life
You take it from us all the while
Here’s to you and to all who’s forgiven
You take another life
We’re too far and he will not listen
This is how you are
Soon we’ll run away
Soon we’ll run away
When you feel like this and no one knows
You try to walk but you just can’t go
I hear him cry, I can’t sleep at night
You help me but I can’t let go
God help me so
God help me so
Well I thought that I was good enough
I guess I wasn’t rightfully so
Soon he’s on his way
And the doctor told me I should know
There’s something that has caused this to happen
All the days and all our nights
Waiting for his eyes to open
Soon he’s on his way
Soon he’s on his way
And it cuts into you like a knife
It tears you up and leaves you on the table
And all this time we felt the life
You take it from us all the while
Here’s to you and to all who’s forgiven
You take another life
We’re too far and he will not listen
This is how you are
Soon we’ll run away
Soon we’ll run away
When you feel like this and no one knows
You try to walk but you just can’t go
I hear him cry, I can’t sleep at night
You help me but I can’t let go
God help me so
God help me so
Well I thought that I was good enough
I guess I wasn’t rightfully so
Summer's Almost Gone
Someone has taken a while
It’s just another day
Whenever we get to talking
You turn the other way
Why do I feel this way
Like it’s the end
I’m sick of wasting time
One day you’ll find out
Summer’s almost gone again
You wake up and turn around
You tear it up and put it down
You told me what they said
And I know what they see
It’s alright
It’s over
It’s getting old to me
Why do I feel this way
Like it’s the end
I’m sick of wasting time
One day you’ll find out
Summer’s almost gone again
You wake up and turn around
You tear it up and put it down
When something’s wrong you know who did it
You look inside to see
One day you’ll find out
Summer’s almost gone again
You wake up and turn around
You tear it up and put it down
It’s just another day
Whenever we get to talking
You turn the other way
Why do I feel this way
Like it’s the end
I’m sick of wasting time
One day you’ll find out
Summer’s almost gone again
You wake up and turn around
You tear it up and put it down
You told me what they said
And I know what they see
It’s alright
It’s over
It’s getting old to me
Why do I feel this way
Like it’s the end
I’m sick of wasting time
One day you’ll find out
Summer’s almost gone again
You wake up and turn around
You tear it up and put it down
When something’s wrong you know who did it
You look inside to see
One day you’ll find out
Summer’s almost gone again
You wake up and turn around
You tear it up and put it down
Falling
I pay no mind to what’s outside
I heard it raining on Sunday
There’s no harm in how I feel
You went away far too soon
I went to look what was on TV
I sat and stared in the corner
All this time that has passed us by
Never knew we were wasting time
I’m falling
I’ve fallen for you
I’m falling
Fallen for you
I took a walk and I sang a tune
I’m out of breath and I’m fading
I went to rest in the shady park
The colors changed in the afternoon
I’m falling
I’ve fallen for you
I’m falling
Fallen for you
The stars came out and the moon is high
I was thinking bout you all last night
And in the morning the sun will shine
And in the afternoon the clouds roll by
I’m falling
I’ve fallen for you
I’m falling
Fallen for you
I heard it raining on Sunday
There’s no harm in how I feel
You went away far too soon
I went to look what was on TV
I sat and stared in the corner
All this time that has passed us by
Never knew we were wasting time
I’m falling
I’ve fallen for you
I’m falling
Fallen for you
I took a walk and I sang a tune
I’m out of breath and I’m fading
I went to rest in the shady park
The colors changed in the afternoon
I’m falling
I’ve fallen for you
I’m falling
Fallen for you
The stars came out and the moon is high
I was thinking bout you all last night
And in the morning the sun will shine
And in the afternoon the clouds roll by
I’m falling
I’ve fallen for you
I’m falling
Fallen for you
Steal You Away
I saw you talking with him yesterday
Well he’s no Mr. Right I gotta say
It’s time to end it with him
Well I am here to change things
And take you away
I’ll steal you away from your love
You break it off with him
And then you’re back
You are like a junky smoking crack
When I catch you staring at me
And I saw your caller ID
The other day
I’ll steal you away from your love
You’re too weak
To make a move on me
Now it’s time for you to know
I’ll steal you away from your love
Well he’s no Mr. Right I gotta say
It’s time to end it with him
Well I am here to change things
And take you away
I’ll steal you away from your love
You break it off with him
And then you’re back
You are like a junky smoking crack
When I catch you staring at me
And I saw your caller ID
The other day
I’ll steal you away from your love
You’re too weak
To make a move on me
Now it’s time for you to know
I’ll steal you away from your love
Closer To You
Slow down
I hear you calling me
I saw you go down
It’s how this had to be
Come out
I need you here with me
I had to hold out
Just to watch you leave
Since you’ve been gone
My life has been
Lonely without you now
I’m running in circles
The lights go out
I’m starting to learn
The fire goes up
It’s starting to burn
But I don’t mind it
I’m closer to you
Somehow
We made it here this far
But now I’m all out
I wonder where you are
It’s cold out
I feel you next to me
You know I sold out
Just to hear you breathe
Every day I wake up
And it’s raining outside
I could see every drop
I could watch it fall all day long
I don’t want it to stop
I hear you calling me
I saw you go down
It’s how this had to be
Come out
I need you here with me
I had to hold out
Just to watch you leave
Since you’ve been gone
My life has been
Lonely without you now
I’m running in circles
The lights go out
I’m starting to learn
The fire goes up
It’s starting to burn
But I don’t mind it
I’m closer to you
Somehow
We made it here this far
But now I’m all out
I wonder where you are
It’s cold out
I feel you next to me
You know I sold out
Just to hear you breathe
Every day I wake up
And it’s raining outside
I could see every drop
I could watch it fall all day long
I don’t want it to stop
Please Come With Me
If only I can say it I would try
When all the stars light up in the dark sky
We can watch the waters rolling down
As it breaks so quietly
Please come with me
And you make things right when it’s all wrong
When I am all alone you sing a song
And we watch the sun as it goes down
As it shines on everything
Please come with me
When the day is almost over
And your work is done
I’ll be waiting right here for you
Telling everyone
Please come with me
When all the stars light up in the dark sky
We can watch the waters rolling down
As it breaks so quietly
Please come with me
And you make things right when it’s all wrong
When I am all alone you sing a song
And we watch the sun as it goes down
As it shines on everything
Please come with me
When the day is almost over
And your work is done
I’ll be waiting right here for you
Telling everyone
Please come with me
Our Love Is True
You came to me in the middle of the nighttime
I heard you knockin on my window
You smiled at me and asked me how have I been
I opened up the door and let you in
And I knew
This conversation was through
We held each other all through the night
And it’s true
Our love is true
Our love is true
Baby and I love you
We took a walk in the midday sunshine
We saw the snow on the mountaintop
We talked for hours until the sky turned black
We turned around and we headed on back
And I knew
That you were feeling it too
And you would stay here with me tonight
And it’s true
Our love is true
Our love is true
Baby and I love you
I don’t know how I lived before without you
I could not sleep at night till I saw you
And I knew
What you wanted to do
We laughed about it all through the night
I heard you knockin on my window
You smiled at me and asked me how have I been
I opened up the door and let you in
And I knew
This conversation was through
We held each other all through the night
And it’s true
Our love is true
Our love is true
Baby and I love you
We took a walk in the midday sunshine
We saw the snow on the mountaintop
We talked for hours until the sky turned black
We turned around and we headed on back
And I knew
That you were feeling it too
And you would stay here with me tonight
And it’s true
Our love is true
Our love is true
Baby and I love you
I don’t know how I lived before without you
I could not sleep at night till I saw you
And I knew
What you wanted to do
We laughed about it all through the night
Don't Cry
It’s two in the morning
You can’t fall asleep
You can’t stop your mind
And you’re feeling so weak
You toss and you turn
And you can’t get it out of your head
You put on your coat
And you’re standing outside
You hear the wind blowing
All through the night
You think that it’s all your fault
Trying to push it away
Don’t cry
Just close your eyes
Everything is gonna be alright
Don’t cry
I want you to know
Everything is gonna be alright
Sometimes you wonder
What’s holding you down
You get in your car
And you’re driving around
You’re caught in the middle
There’s no use in running away
Don’t cry
Just close your eyes
Everything is gonna be alright
Don’t cry
I want you to know
Everything is gonna be alright
You can’t fall asleep
You can’t stop your mind
And you’re feeling so weak
You toss and you turn
And you can’t get it out of your head
You put on your coat
And you’re standing outside
You hear the wind blowing
All through the night
You think that it’s all your fault
Trying to push it away
Don’t cry
Just close your eyes
Everything is gonna be alright
Don’t cry
I want you to know
Everything is gonna be alright
Sometimes you wonder
What’s holding you down
You get in your car
And you’re driving around
You’re caught in the middle
There’s no use in running away
Don’t cry
Just close your eyes
Everything is gonna be alright
Don’t cry
I want you to know
Everything is gonna be alright
Slips Into The Air
I get no sun in this grey garden
The colors seem to wash away
All of the days forgotten
Where has the comfort gone
Falling into nothing
You try to send me something
But it gets lost and floats somewhere
If only I could reach you
My mind can slowly read you
But it just slips into the air
We sit here waiting in this garden
The wind is cold the trees are bare
Got to hold on to something
Cause if he sees us here
Falling into nothing
You try to send me something
But it gets lost and floats somewhere
If only I could reach you
My mind can slowly read you
But it just slips into the air
The colors seem to wash away
All of the days forgotten
Where has the comfort gone
Falling into nothing
You try to send me something
But it gets lost and floats somewhere
If only I could reach you
My mind can slowly read you
But it just slips into the air
We sit here waiting in this garden
The wind is cold the trees are bare
Got to hold on to something
Cause if he sees us here
Falling into nothing
You try to send me something
But it gets lost and floats somewhere
If only I could reach you
My mind can slowly read you
But it just slips into the air
Start Over Again
They’re coming for me
They’ve opened my heart
Soon we’ll be gone
To cover this up
And I will run off
And start it again
Until we run out
Soon we’ll be out
We got to start over again
And time will not stop
I’m on it again
I need to lay down
They’re coming around
We got to start over again
We got to start over again
Open your eyes
And see what’s outside
You say we’re alright
It’s over for now
We got to start over again
We got to start over again
They’ve opened my heart
Soon we’ll be gone
To cover this up
And I will run off
And start it again
Until we run out
Soon we’ll be out
We got to start over again
And time will not stop
I’m on it again
I need to lay down
They’re coming around
We got to start over again
We got to start over again
Open your eyes
And see what’s outside
You say we’re alright
It’s over for now
We got to start over again
We got to start over again
Fallen For You
Do you remember back when we were standing still
And all we had were holes we couldn’t fill
All those days are over now
Hiding from the sun away from everyone
I’m telling the world I’ve fallen for you
I’ve made up my mind
I know it for sure
I’ve fallen for you
You called me when you were on my mind
I couldn’t speak and words were hard to find
All the things I couldn’t say in front of everyone
I’d turn my head and run
I’m telling the world I’ve fallen for you
I’ve made up my mind
I know it for sure
I’ve fallen for you
Every time you think it’s never ending
Close your eyes like you did before
After all we can’t go on pretending
That all this really matters anymore
I’m telling the world I’ve fallen for you
I’ve made up my mind
I know it for sure
I’ve fallen for you
And all we had were holes we couldn’t fill
All those days are over now
Hiding from the sun away from everyone
I’m telling the world I’ve fallen for you
I’ve made up my mind
I know it for sure
I’ve fallen for you
You called me when you were on my mind
I couldn’t speak and words were hard to find
All the things I couldn’t say in front of everyone
I’d turn my head and run
I’m telling the world I’ve fallen for you
I’ve made up my mind
I know it for sure
I’ve fallen for you
Every time you think it’s never ending
Close your eyes like you did before
After all we can’t go on pretending
That all this really matters anymore
I’m telling the world I’ve fallen for you
I’ve made up my mind
I know it for sure
I’ve fallen for you
Some Days
It was hard to say goodbye
Then you were calling me here
And I was certainly fooling myself
Some days you feel like
You’re coming down and there’s no escaping
Some days you feel like
You’re crashing down and your heart is breaking
You were moving slow
And I saw you smiling at me
And I was suddenly far from myself
Some days you feel like
You’re coming down and there’s no escaping
Some days you feel like
You’re crashing down and your heart is breaking
Time goes on
Some days you feel like
You’re coming down and there’s no escaping
Some days you feel like
You’re crashing down and your heart is breaking
Then you were calling me here
And I was certainly fooling myself
Some days you feel like
You’re coming down and there’s no escaping
Some days you feel like
You’re crashing down and your heart is breaking
You were moving slow
And I saw you smiling at me
And I was suddenly far from myself
Some days you feel like
You’re coming down and there’s no escaping
Some days you feel like
You’re crashing down and your heart is breaking
Time goes on
Some days you feel like
You’re coming down and there’s no escaping
Some days you feel like
You’re crashing down and your heart is breaking
I'll Be There
It’s too late for turning around now
We’re already miles away
You’re losing yourself
And you can’t find a reason to stay
You’re resting your head at the top of the stairs
Hoping that somebody sees
Come and take all of me
All for yourself
And when you’re down
I’ll be there
And when you’re far from me
See for yourself
Open your eyes
I’ll be there
There’s no place to go once you’re all out
You’re already so far away
You’re walking around for hours
Only to find no one there
You’re waiting around with your hands in your hair
Watching the lights in the street
And at the end of this story
When you’re left with nothing to say
And when you wake in the morning
If nothing is going your way
We’re already miles away
You’re losing yourself
And you can’t find a reason to stay
You’re resting your head at the top of the stairs
Hoping that somebody sees
Come and take all of me
All for yourself
And when you’re down
I’ll be there
And when you’re far from me
See for yourself
Open your eyes
I’ll be there
There’s no place to go once you’re all out
You’re already so far away
You’re walking around for hours
Only to find no one there
You’re waiting around with your hands in your hair
Watching the lights in the street
And at the end of this story
When you’re left with nothing to say
And when you wake in the morning
If nothing is going your way
