Bleeding Hearts
Don’t know what I thought I’d find
Out here on my own
Freedom or just peace of mind
A way to get back home
I gave up on the life I knew
And tore our love apart
You wiped away the traces
But you kept the Bleeding Hearts
Bleeding Hearts! How many broken hearts
I can see them now swaying in the dark
You moved on when I tore our lives apart
And now all that's left are Bleeding Hearts.
On the corner, all alone
I pass them everyday
A tribute to a love that’s gone
A life I threw away
I gave up all the things I knew
and tore our love apart
All the plans we made but all
that’s left are Bleeding Hearts
Bleeding Hearts! And crying broken hearts
They are in my mind swaying in the dark
You broke free when I tore our love apart
And now all that's left are Bleeding Hearts.
I wonder if you told her
I planted them with you
It feels like so long ago
Was any of that true?
I gave up on the life I knew
And tore our love apart
My mistake cuts like a knife
Into my bleeding heart.
Bleeding Hearts! How many broken hearts
I can see them now swaying in the dark
You found someone new when I tore our lives apart
And now all that's left are Bleeding Hearts.
Flowers fade and fall away
Seasons turn and torment me
I went off to live my dreams
But nothing ever comes for free
Bleeding Hearts! And crying broken hearts
They are in my mind swaying in the dark
You broke free when I tore our love apart
And now all that's left are Bleeding Hearts.

Get Moving
太阳下山
华灯初绽
不要错过这夜未央
不要告诉我在哪儿
不要告诉我去哪儿
只想跟上夜的节拍
One last kiss. Don't wake up.
You make it all seem so unclear.
There is nothing here for me…
I'll find my own way out of here.
I can't stay, not this time.
I'm leaving you, without a sound
I've been down this road before.
And this time I won't turn around.
太阳下山
华灯初绽
不要错过这夜未央
不要告诉我在哪儿
不要告诉我去哪儿
只想跟上夜的节拍
I'm not breathing
Heart is fading
Senses failing day by day
Need some loving
Gotta get moving
Got a feeling its OK
Time to move… time to fly
I really hope you understand
Yes I've been down this road before.
And this time I won't turn around.
Turn it up. Drown it out.
My memories they're all so loud.
Time will pass, and soon you’ll be
Another face within the crowd.

I'm Coming Home
From a bus on the old highway
The river still looks the same
I found and lost my dreams
There's no one else to blame
And the birds they fly south for the winter
But they come back every spring,
And so I had to go but tonight
I'm coming home, Im coming home, Im coming home
My heart hasn't changed its mind
If you still feel the same
I wanted to stay right here
No one but me to blame
And i had to try to fly
To see what i could be
I know what I took from you
But I needed to be free
Wherever you are in life
I hope you still feel the same
And now you've moved on from here
I have to take the blame
And the birds they fly south for the winter
But they come back every spring,
I have no right but I hope you're here for me
When I come home…. I'm coming home.

The Morning Sun
Red leaves blowing from the west reveal the time
It's all moving way too fast within my mind
I can't stop the world spinning round the sun
Please hold on tonight. We knew the time would come
I don't know what tomorrow brings, how can we
Deceive our yesterdays? And hold each other near.
The morning sun will come again the light now
Will guide us on our way. Tonight I know you're here
My breath on your neck, hold it in your soul
Take it out when you’re alone let it make you whole.
We can stop the world spinning round and round.
Please hold on to tonight
What’s lost can still be found.
I don't know what tomorrow brings, how can we
Deceive our yesterdays? And hold each other near
The morning sun will find us lying here.
Red leaves are falling in clear jade moonlight
Hold me till morning all through the night
The world stops its turning, the heavens are one
Wait for the new day, the new Morning Sun.

Falling Down
Don't try to tell me that I'm just afraid of falling
And don't try to say that I'm scared of letting go
And don't try to tell me I'm frightened and I'm stalling
'Cos I already know
It's been dark so long that I thought the light had faded
Your smile filled the room just like it was the sun
I'm so good at the easy answers, I'm so jaded
You laugh and I'm undone
And I'm so afraid of the things that I am feeling
And all I can see are the things that I could lose
I've worked very hard to be empty and now I'm reeling
And so how can I choose?
You can see right through into my soul
You make me long for something I've not known before
Everything I am has been laid bare
It feels like I could be someone who doesn't care
But you look at me
And it sets me free
Like tumbling down into a different world
Shiny new and I'm a different girl
Don't try to tell me that I'm just afraid of falling
And don't try to say that I'm scared of letting go
And don't try to tell me I'm frightened and I'm stalling
'Cos I already know
And I'm so afraid of the things that I am feeling
And all I can see are the things that I could lose
I've worked very hard to be empty and now I'm reeling
And so how can I choose?
So don't try to tell me that I'm just afraid of falling
And don't try to say that I'm scared of letting go
And don't try to tell me I'm frightened and I'm stalling
'Cos I already know
'Cos I already know
'Cos I already know
'Cos I already know

Dream All Your Dreams (Over Me)
Cry for me once turn around and begin
Love with your heart and be free
Take all you can take the world in your hands
Dream all your dreams over me
I saw you in the square
I could see your thoughts so clearly
Waves of secrets hidden there
I let one of them come near me
Face the fear
Chase the new
These are things that I must say to you
Cry for me once turn around and begin
Love with your heart and be free
Luck will arrive you will dance you will shine
Dream all your dreams over me
I watched him yesterday
I still can feel him clearly
Something dark inside a smile
A thousand feelings flowing through me
Catch your eye
Light your soul
Ease your mind
Cry for me once turn around and begin
Love with your heart and be free
Luck will arrive you will dance you will shine
Dream all your dreams over me
I miss you every day
You find a pathway to my heart
You're the one who knows the way
To stop me living in the darkness
Through the crowd
Lights will shine
Life is fantasies caught up in time
One day one day life will trip life will fall
One day the moment hits you
Take all you can take the world in your hands
Give all the love that you can
Cry for me once turn around and begin
Love with your heart and be free
Luck will arrive you will dance you will shine
Dream all your dreams over me
Dance through the sky, go to sleep, don't you cry
Love with your heart and be free
Take all you can take the world in your hands
Dream all your dreams over me

You're My Man (Till Death Do Us Part)
You're my man
A light in my hand
You make it easy
You understand
You're the one
Who hears every call
Helps me to fly
And catches my fall
And you found me here
Afraid of the dark
You lit the stars
And healed my heart...
You're my man
A light in my hand
Till the night comes
Till we understand
Why we're here
And how to give
Hold nothing back
For that is to live
You found me here
Afraid of the dark
You lit the stars
And healed my heart...
Be my man
A light in my hand
You make it easy
You understand
And that is to love
And that is to light
A path in the darkness
A star in the night
A star in the night.

High Flying Machine
High flying machine
smooth precision, pristine
Burnt straight out of a dream
Step In, and fly it with me
Leave your worries behind
Relax, the higher we climb
Illusions they always change with time
Now you can be free
Ride, step inside, inside your mind, mind your soul,
feel it growing now….
just let go, let go of the world, the world is yours,
so let's get going.
The isolation you feel
In your heart, you know it's not real
Watching the world from up here
The walls are no longer clear
A billion souls in the night
Waiting to see the light
Stay with me on this magic flight
Be free, be who you can be
Know, who you are, you are the child, child of stars,
ever burning bright
Since time began, timeless light, lights the dark,
so keep on learning.
Ride, step inside, inside your mind, find the urge,
feel it growing now
You can let go, let go of the world, the world is yours,
so let's get going now…..

Nothing Here To See
From the clear blue sky
You come to visit me
You come to find me in the waters
Of your empathy
I await my fate
You watch me on TV
My one remaining thought is how it feels to not be me
How it feels when you can close your eyes and dream
Turn away and close your eyes
Don't let the sadness stop you breathing
Turn away there's nothing here to see
Look towards your heart and
Shield your eyes from all the suffering
It's all a game there's nothing here to see
Carry on your games
You leaders of the free
While you debate and sleep in satin
Dust is all I breath
We salute your words
We love sincerity
Enjoy the moment
Make the most of your diplomacy
As you wait to take your place in history
Turn away and close your eyes
Don't let the sadness stop you breathing
Flip the channel nothing here to see
Look towards your heart and
Shield your eyes from all the suffering
It's all a game there's nothing here to see
Dig me from the sand, let me see blue sky
Dig me from the sand, let me learn to cry
Take me in your arms and sing to me
And please take me home
Turn away and close your eyes don't let the sadness stop you breathing
Turn away and close your eyes don't let the sadness stop you breathing
Turn away and close your eyes
Don't let the madness stop you breathing
Turn away there's nothing here to see
One more child awakes and then
Another cries in suffering it's
All a game there's nothing here to see

Everything Is Easy
Is this the right way?
I need an answer right now
I need to understand
And get the picture somehow
How can I find myself
When you're around me
Explaining who I should be
There's no place left here for me
Two souls together
Two souls forgot how to touch
Soul-mates to strangers
But still you own my heart so much
So much of who I am is wrapped up inside you
And here in the girl that you see
Who's so messed up in you
She's losing sight of me
Everything is easy when the sun goes down
Everything is easy when you smile
When you're here for me to put my arms around
When we can kiss our way into denial
Everything is easy when it's make-believe
Pretend that we're not fraying at the seams
Pretend that this is not some tangled web we weave
Made up of love and history and dreams.
Is this the right way?
To let it all slip away?
Or is it not the end
And we can both pretend and say?
Say all the things we would say if we were in love
And hope our words make it real
So close your eyes and just feel.
Everything is easy when the sun goes down
Everything is easy when you smile
When you're here for me to put my arms around
When we can kiss our way into denial
Everything is easy when it's make-believe
Pretend that we're not fraying at the seams
Pretend that this is not some tangled web we weave
Made up of love and history and dreams.

See Me Like That
I saw you there, with her again, I know what it means
You looked at me, staring at you. You smiled, easily.
A sheet of glass, a simple mask that hides, this blade in my heart.
‘Cause you’ll never see me like that.
You held her hands, so tenderly, I know what she means
She has your heart, she’s won the game. She knows how to play.
I shut you out, I was afraid and now you’ve moved on
Now you’ll never see me like that.
Style runs deep… I know how to bleed
who are you …. this man who's in need
of so much love he runs away too soon…..
and when he looks back he knows….
his moment has gone, and boy how it shows
I saw you there, with her again, I know what it means
You looked at me, staring at you. You smiled, easily.
A sheet of glass, a simple mask that hides, this blade in my heart.
‘Cause you’ll never see me like that.
No you’ll never see me like that.

Dancing On My Own
I thought you were my everything
I flew too high and broke the string
I thought that all I had was gone
I tried my wings and they were strong
You broke me down I lost control
And that is when I found my soul
Now there is nothing you can do
I’m me and not a part of you
You want to break me just you try
And I will take my wings and fly
I have found, my truth, my light, my soul
That's the only path that I can know
That single note you tried to hide
Behind your smile, your laugh, your pride
When you told me I might be alone
I learned to dance… all on my own
There's nothing now to stop my dreams,
There’s no more need to hide my screams
No other place to be right now,
I wouldn’t be there anyhow
There’s more to me than I once knew
I’m not that girl who needed you
If this is who I have to be
For once the world makes sense to me.
Just try to break me just you try
Just watch me take my wings and fly
I have found, my truth, my light, my soul
That's the only path that I can know
That scheming mind you tried to hide
Behind your smile, your laugh, your pride
When you told me I might be alone
I learned to dance… all on my own

Eight Miles To The Border
8 miles to the border and we're getting there fast
8 miles to a life without you
8 miles to freedom so just turn on the gas
we've come too far not to make it through
We've come so far, not far enough yet
Just keep on driving we can get out of this
Silence and smoke are both getting so thick
I think of what they've done and it makes me sick
But there's no turning back the clock on it now
No turning back so keep on driving
Cos we need to focus on surviving
All the things I wish I'd done I never said goodbye
And now all the doors are closing fast behind.
It seemed so easy in the sun it felt like we could fly
And I have no future and my past is hard…. to find
Goodbye to all I was, I'm a shadow now as empty as the sky.
So wash away the world that's gone, destroy what's in my mind
I can force the fires of destiny to die
I can't regret the things i've done, I have to clear my mind,
you can't start a fire unless you have a spark.
Just one more crossing and you'll fade in the dark
Just one more bridge left to burn
Just one more bloody heart you've carved out your mark
Ran out of places I had to turn to
Ran out of space and time to save us
I know you want to keep on moving alone
The only path that you know how to take
And loving someone well it slows you right down
Makes all the choices so hard to make
We built our life on revolution
Believe me this is the best solution…
All the things I wish I'd done I never said goodbye
And now all the doors are closing fast behind.
It seemed so easy in the sun it felt like we could fly
And I have no future and my past is hard…. to find
Goodbye to all I was, I'm a shadow now as empty as the dark.
I can't regret the things I've done I have to clear my mind,
you can't start a fire unless you have a spark.

Before I Ever Knew Your Name
The winds are changing, blowing cold tonight.
I see your eyes reflect the winter's light
The icy storms embrace
It makes you feel afraid
I see it all within your face
How quick your smile can fade
(Girl of the frozen northlands, silent like the sea
How I wish you could know the soul of my country)
The home I knew is far away tonight.
Gardens in the morning mist, the golden light
The day I found you here
Beyond the broken road
I heard a voice that rang so clear
It sang and filled my soul
And it sang how I had always missed you
How I had longed to kiss you for so long
And it sang how I had once been blind to
Resist this urge to find you and hold on
And I never dreamed that I would be here
And now i see the reason why I came
And I needed you to make me whole again,
I feel it in my soul I think I knew it long before
I ever knew your name.
(Girl of the frozen northlands, silent like the ice)
So dry your tears and ease your weary mind
I' m not going anywhere tonight.
The day I found you here
Beyond the broken road
I heard a voice that rang so clear
It sang and filled my soul
And it sang how I had missed you
How I'd longed to kiss you for so long
And it sang how I'd once been blind to
Resist this urge to find you and hold on
And I never dreamed that I would be here
And now I see the reason why I came
And I needed you to make me whole again
I feel it in my soul I think I knew it long before
I ever knew your name.
