Hoilday 01:27
drive me to the country let's take the back roads swim in the river and float downstream live our dream do, do, do... drive me past the ocean bet you twenty the tide is in turn up the radio and drift away on Holiday do, do, do...
2.
you are my rainy day friend on you I can depend to keep the stormy clouds away you are my Rainy Day Friend come and keep me company when the rain is pouring down and no shelter can be found you brighten up my day with all the funny things you say 'cause you are my rainy day friend come and keep me company when the wind begins to moan I pick up the phone you will always answer doesn't matter what time of day 'cause you are my rainy day friend come and keep me company Come and keep me company
3.
you make me weak in the knees so weak a soft breeze could blow me over the way you brush my hair with your palm I feel calm in those hands You Make Me Crazy (For More) my head keeps on hitting, hitting the floor, hitting the floor, hitting the floor you make me dig for the source Dig deep I am your own fresh spring the way you pull my body out of water get my feet back on the ground you make me smile on both sides smile cause the best rides go up and down the way you cover me in a blanket of snow show me how to touch so light
4.
When Love Is 02:09
you fell out of my hands out of reach and out of sight I can't hold on to something so perfect and so ripe I imagine catching you before the fall or going back to find you bruised and all When Love Is lost when love moves on don't look back you offered me everything I could want but can't refuse I thought that I could like your impression of a muse but I don't want you going out and finding me something that can be found so easily when love is nice when love digs in don't go to sleep
5.
Jump With Me 04:10
I hold you up you break my back this burden is a fatal attack I stand on you like you're the ground put the pressure on and you won't make a sound Jump With Me while the building burns we've got nothing to lose with all that we've learned jump with me while the big wheel turns we've got nothing to loose with all that we've learned be cruel to me I know your pain losing our minds in this loser's game I lie to you and to myself love the suspense but it's killing my health when you're down I pull you deep when I'm awake you put me to sleep there's nothing left for us to test hard to forgive for trying your best with that look in your eyes I could run to you I could fall into the dream again but no I only wish that I wanted to go
6.
my old love, my old drug do not distract me any longer spent too much time staring at the surface of the water letting the ripples blur the beaten look of our desperation to be loved by one another and by the book Learn From The Best of the worst memories and be saved by our mistakes things that appear brightest and true always someday leave you blue it's been hard and it's been tough letting go of the image I'm sold but I've refused the free advice I was having to hold pick any direction but the beaten past and even when I'm lost I won't turn around and no I won't look back
7.
the closer I get the further you seem the higher I fly the deeper I dream the more I try (yeah the more I try) the less I find and I wonder, yeah I wonder If I Really Knew You if I really knew you at all the longer I wait the shorter my life you're soft like rain and sharp like a knife and the more I know (yeah the more I know) the less I understand
8.
Let Me Down 03:21
I don't really want you to see my heart breaking my beat fading I don't really want you to see that I'm the one who's lying for you and no I won't remind you of every other girl who's cried to sky dreaming of rescue so Let Me Down easy lie to me tell it to me gently and save the honesty I don't really want you to know the truth I hide the secret I'm behind I don't really want you to know that I'm the one who's dying for you
9.
waiting for your love to return frozen over like ice but it still burns wonder where on earth that you are wishing I could leave and live on a star I loved you so I let you go only to find you were never mine In The Winter all the streets looks the same and all these salty tears have nothing but the wind to blame in the winter all the snow falls and stays and all these blanket dreams have nothing to do but wait for change losing you like my appetite too weak and starved to put up a fight you say goodbye like hello like it makes no difference if you stay or go my time is wasted on hope one step forward each thought I let go holding my own light in the dark there's nothing left can break my heart
10.
how long shall I wait, until the spring? for the first songbird to sing or for the last shower to sweeten the air? how long shall I wait, until the summer? for the first campfire to burn or for the last ember to go out in the morning? How Long Shall I Wait? shall I wait through the seasons? shall I wait forever and a day for you? how long shall I wait, until the fall? for the first green leaf to turn or for the last colour to blow away in the breeze? how long shall I wait, until the winter? for the first window to frost or for the last snowbank to melt away in the shade?
