Beneath

Days are growing cold
But tonight, I'm feeling whole
Dimly glows an ember
Deep in my soul
Sheltered by a lung
And a heart beating in time
Burning with a memory
Deep in my mind
A memory so distant
That it fades when suddenly seen
It hides, forgotten, between the seams
But I still feel it
Keep the ember warm
Hold on to the memory
Keep the darkest feelings
Buried beneath
A flicker of comfort
Can ignite the memory
Before it vanishes finally
But I still feel it
The ember keeps me warm
In the darkness, protecting me
Glowing ever constant
Buried beneath

When You Are Here
05:37
|
|

Even though I hold you near
It's like we've never met at all dear
Can't you feel my longing for you
Don't you know that I adore you, love?
You're the one I've always wanted
Every dream you've always haunted
Don't you notice I am lonely
Can't you see that I want only you for me?
I look at you, you look away
I try to reach out to you every day
But then you only pull away
When I am near
And when you go out on your own
I can remember all the love we have known
But I always feel so much alone
When you are here
Try to find your love again
Think about when we were friends
A time when you were mine and I was yours
Oh, but now, I feel misunderstood
Breaking away from all the things that once were good
Losing hope that we will ever find
A kind of peace of mind
That it will all be fine
So I will go this on my own
Until you see that I just wanna be close
But now I feel alone the most
When you are here

It Isn't There
04:41
|
|

Opening my heart
Reaching out so far
And yet I don't know what it's for
Thought I heard a lark
Something in the dark
But it isn't there at all
I know I felt it yesterday
Or was it just the same
As any old exchange
No, it has to be for real
Or else I cannot feel
I cannot feel at all
Still it's out of reach
Will I find my peace
If it isn't there at all?
I know I felt it yesterday
Or was it just the same
As any old exchange
No, no, no
Still it's out of reach
Will I find my peace
If it isn't there at all?
What if it isn't there at all?

September Song
04:36
|
|
||
|
Oh, it's a long long while
From May to December
But the days grow short
When you reach September
When the autumn weather
Turns leaves to flame
One hasn't got time
For the waiting game
Oh, the days dwindle down
To a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days
I'll spend with you
These precious days
I'll spend with you

Tell Me What You Feel
06:34
|
|
||
|
Tell me what you feel
I want to know what it's like to be you
Say your thoughts out loud
Release your inner child
I want to pick your brain
I want to know what it's like to be you
Counting all the braincells
And the energy it takes
To open up your mind and look inside
At all your needs and fears so you can
Tell me what you feel
I want to know what it's like to be you

I Was You
03:37
|
|

Who is standing in the mirror?
Does she even know your name?
Do you see, do you remember?
Are you the same?
Once, I had the feeling
That I had control
Now it's only fleeting
I've lost my hold
Time will always rearrange you
Into something that is new
You will find that you're a stranger
To the only person that you thought you knew
I don't want to have these feelings
Thoughts that I cannot control
I just wanna stay the same
I don't want it to change
I want it as when I was you

Love Never Can Lose
03:58
|
|

Love is an old thing, love is a new thing
Love is a sure thing until it's failing
It has a talent to surprise you
Even when love isn't around
Somehow it always can find you
Whether or not you wanna be found
I had a new love not long ago now
I had a feeling that love would grow
I had decided that I liked you
Wanted to finally tell you so
But love had a plan to defeat me
And it never can lose
I thought love was for me
But then I lost you
I had a new love not long ago now
I had a feeling that love would grow
I had decided that I liked you
Wanted to finally tell you so
But love had a plan to defeat me
And it never can lose
I thought love was for me
But poor me, I always must lose

In the Moonlight
03:00
|
|

After midnight in the moonlight
I can see you in a new light
And your eyes are so much brighter
And your smile is so much lighter
Never saw you
Noticed your beauty
But now I see all of you completely
And I love you, if it's all right
Stay with me, dear, in the moonlight
Now I see you
See all your beauty
And now I love all of you completely
Love you always, if it's all right
Stay with me, dear, in the moonlight

Foolish Things
04:38

Darling dance with me
Dance and you will see
What the world can be when you're free
From all your fears and doubts
Your mind will clear
And not think of things that we both have done
Hold me to you
Hold me so we can dance away
Dance far away
And then you
Will just look at me like a dream
And we will be the two
We want to be
And not think of things that we both have done

You'll Know
03:22
|
|
||
|
Chasing that warm feeling
Love can be appealing
Yet you're still out here in the cold
Keep me at a distance
I'm afraid you'll miss this
How can love grow strong far apart?
You say you'll know
You'll feel as it nears
Will you smile when it appears
For real?
I cannot be certain
What's behind the curtain
I can only hope that you'll know

Love to Have You Near Me
04:19
|
|
||
|
Love to have you near me
I only hope you see all of me
When you put a smile on my face
Looking through a window
Peering through an open door
I see the one that I adore walk by
Do you understand me
When I say that you are my star
You must know that to me, you are
Don't walk away without a touch
A kiss would mean so much
I long to have you here with me

Once again my open eyes
See the glow of morning skies
And again I'm daunted by a new day
On my own each day is hard
I can only get so far
Do I have to live a life of feeling so uncertain what it's for?
Can I just let go?
Do I need to try each day to love the one I am?
Could it be that I'm alone?
Forced to wish away this lonely lifetime
But the sun comes every day
Whether or not you want to stay
And for now that has to be enough
