Wake me up to the sound of my feet upon the ground
Get me up, get me through, get myself I'm talking to
I'm awake, and although, and it's not my place to say
Brush the hair from my ears and slowly walk away
'cause this is the day
This is the day
This is the day

Early to bed, early to rise
Seemingly sleepy, with open eyes
Early to bed, early to rise
Sleeping still on the bright side

Waking up to the sound of my feet above the ground
Gets me up, follows through with my fortunes to the noon
I'm awake and I know that it's no one's place to say
Dust the hair from my ears and slowly walk away
'cause this is the day
This is the day
This is the day

Early to bed, early to rise
Seemingly sleepy, with open eyes
Early to bed, early to rise
Sleeping still on the bright side

Early to bed, early to rise
Seemingly sleepy, with open eyes
Early to bed, early to rise
Sleeping still on the bright side

. . .


The day is cold.
The day is cold and dark and dreary.

And it rains.
And the wind is never weary.

Ivy still clings to the wall.
At every gust the dead leaves fall.

And the day is dark.
And the day is dark and dreary.

Be still sad heart.
Oh be still and cease repining.

Behind the clouds
Is the sun still shining.

Thy fate is the fate of all.
Into life some rain must fall.

Some days must be dark
Some days must be dark and dreary.

. . .


The city feels clean this time of night
Just empty streets and me walking home
To clear my head
I know it came as no surprise
I'm affected more than I had guessed
By what was said

If this loves not meant to be
If a hearts not ready to open
If the naked eye won't see
It's broken.

It's a quiet time before the dawn
And I'm half past making sense of it
Was I wrong?
Should I think to give it all?
In a world where not much ever seems
To last long.

If this loves not meant to be
If a hearts not ready to open
If the naked eye won't see
It's broken.

. . .


You say love has given up
Yet here's my heart, still filling up
Hoping that you will follow
Poetry inside my head
Thoughts sublime that must be said
Here am I, explaining why I care.

Still feel the warmth of you
Can't get enough of you
Still think the world of you
Still want the rest of you
Still feel the best if yet to come

In the heart where love can grow
Takes to time for it to show
But sometimes we just don't realize
Look into my eyes and see
A simple truth you..ll find in me
Here am I, explaining why..

Still feel the warmth of you
Can't get enough of you
Still think the world of you
Still want the rest of you
Still feel the best if yet to come

Sunrise following our goodbyes
Following the night like you
Disappeared too soon
But it stays
Hear it in the morning waves
Spinning from the night with you
Underneath the half moon

Close my eyes
And you'll still be here with me
Close my eyes
The sunrise comes too soon

So I lay
Lounging though and endless day
Dreaming of tonight with you
And everything we'll do.
Its just time
From mundane to the sublime
From waiting for tonight with you
Underneath the half moon

Close my eyes
And you'll still be here with me
Close my eyes

Well I might come over
Just to tide me over
Cause the waiting might kill me
If I don't come over
Why does time move slowly
When I'm not with you
And the sunrise comes too soon

Eros prays we build our house upon him.
Sees how well it stands, how long we last
Built upon the sand, on the idol Eros.

So when he's gone can I do what Eros does?
What he does for us, he does for us.
And when he's gone can it be the way it was?
Bring him back to us. Is he all we've got
Our house built upon? On the idol Eros?

When our haven wavers in the wind
And walls all beg to be abandoned,
Blame the idol Eros.
When the raven calls and all his melodies
All long to be forgotten,
Blame the idol Eros.

What's left to say but I loved the way it was?
..Cause I said I would, I've done all I could.
See what he's done to us?
Oh the idol Eros.

When our haven wavers in the wind
And walls all beg to be abandoned,
When the raven calls and all his melodies
All long to be forgotten,

Blame the idol Eros.

. . .


There is a kind of mood today
Where everything is going my way
Come on don..t fight it
You like it
You try it
Come here baby and dance with me
You see if you let go
Feeling the flow
Come here baby take a chance with me

Keep up with me
If you..re wanting something more
Keep on moving
To the rhythm on the floor

. . .


I searched for hours and hours
But only found more shoes
More points of view
As if I knew

. . .


Here we are
Family together
Holding close
Never release this feeling
This moment
My dream is now
That I'm with you

'Cause your beautiful
Something in your eyes
Tells me I have found
Love that never dies
I don't have to dream
Reality is beautiful in you...

I've never felt more true
There you are
Finally the answer
Take my hand
Never release
The sweetness
The magic
The happiness
I found in you

Cause you're beautiful
Something in your eyes
Tells me I have found
Love that never dies
I don't have to dream
Reality is beautiful in you...

I've never felt more true

Cause you're beautiful
Something in your eyes
Tells me I have found
Love that never dies
I don't have to dream
Reality is beautiful in you...

I've never felt more true (x3)

Cause you're beautiful

I've never felt more true...

Beautiful

You tell me love is standing next to you
There's not much about love that I understand
And here you are again despite
The imposable.. improbable

That's how I know this love is more than usual
This is just what I need
And here you are again to take my hand
You stay with me
And take another chance

This is what was meant to be
Took so long for you and me
I figured out the way to go
Yes I know you told me so
Now I have the eyes to see

Some things make sense more than others
Things of the heart seldom do
But here you are again
And now I understand
I'll take this gift you've given me

This is what was meant to be
Took so long for you and me
I figured out the way to go
Yes I know you told me so
Now I have the eyes to see

. . .


It's all for nothing
The love we see
A broken offering
A sad old dream
So what it used to be
Is not enough
It's all for nothing
If we give up.

When I think of all the dreams we used to share
All the days, all the night when you where there
All my words upon the lines you used to keep
When I think of all the promises, it cuts so deep

It's all for nothing
The love we see
A broken offering
A sad old dream
So what it used to be
Is not enough
It's all for nothing
If we give up.

It's so crazy that we ran away from here
Tell me what good can I take from all my tears
Tell me baby cause I know you feel the same
It's crazy that we came this far and now we can't stay

It's all for nothing
The love we see
A broken offering
A sad old dream
So what it used to be
Is not enough
It's all for nothing
If we give up.

. . .


Another day has come and gone
And I've been holding in..
Not holding on

Feeling out of place, I
I'm wanting to escape, I
I pack my bags with nothing left to say

It's when I think I've figured out
The figures simply turning
Inside out

Burn before it catches, I
I rummage through the ashes, I
I turn the page with nothing left to say
