A Moment Like This (UK bonus track)
. . .


Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da (x2)

People say love
Comes and goes, but
They don't understand
What they don't know
Cause, what I feel starts
Deep inside
It's kinda like a sea
That springs into life

They say it's not right
And we move too fast
But they don't know the meaning
Of what we have

Wherever it is, I'll fly
Whatever it takes, I'll try
So don't pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
'Cause you know why
There's no standing in our way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da (x2)

When you're far and
We're apart
I'm really missing you
I wanna be where you are

They say it's not right (it's not right)
And it won't last (it won't last)
No point believing
What we have

Wherever it is, I'll fly
Whatever it takes, I'll try
So don't pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
I'll be on time
'Cause you know why
There's no standing in my way

And if you're lost
I'm gonna find you
'Cause without you
I'll break down and cry
And you know why
I wanna surround you
With all my love

(Choir joins, ad libs from Leona)

Wherever it is, I'll fly
Whatever it takes, I'll try
So don't pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
'Cause you know why
There's no standing in my way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da (x2)

Waiting here
For you to call me
For you to tell me
That everything’s a big mistake

Waiting here
In this rainfall
Feeling so small
This dream was not suppose to break

I’m so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Wont you please forgive
Please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

In this cold
I’m walking aimless
Feeling helpless
Without a shelter from the storm

In my heart
I miss you so much
Missing your touch
And the bed that used to be so warm

I’m so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Wont you please forgive
Please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

My, My baby
I’m sorry
Oooh

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

. . .


Oooh oooh

Hmmmmh

(Verse)

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow i can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going
Coming
Thought i heard a knock(Whose there, Noone?)
Thinking that (I deserve it)
Now i have realised
that i really didn't knooOooOw

If you didn't notice
You mean everything (quickly I'm learning)
To love again (all i know is)
I'm be oooOook

(Chorus)

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's going to hurt when it heals too
Oh yeaah (It'll All get better in time)
Even though i really love you
I'm gonna smile because i deserve too
Oooh(It'll all get better in time)

(Verse)

I could of turned on the TV
Without something that would remind me
Was it all that easy?
To just put us out your feeling


If i'm dreamin
Don't want to let it (hurt my feelings)
But that's the past (i believe it)
And i know that, time will heal it

If you didn't notice
Well you mean everything (quickly i'm learning)
Oooh turn up again (All i know is)
I'm be ok

(Chorus)

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
Oooh yeah(It'll all get better in time)
Even though i really love you
I'm gonna smile because i deserve too oooooh(It'll all get better in time)

(Bridge)

Since there's no more you and me (No more you and me)
This time i let you go so i can be free
And Live my life how it should be(No No No No No No)
No matter how hard it is
I will be fine without you
Yes i Will

(Chorus)

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
Oooh(It'll all get better in time)
Even though i really loved you
I'm gonna smile cos i deserve too yes i do(It'll all get better in time)

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too yeaaaah Ooooh oooooh (It'll all get better in time)
Even though i really loved you
Going to smile cos i deserve too Ooooooh (It'll all get better....)

I just cant believe your gone, still waitin for mornin to come, when i see if the sun will rise,in the way that your by my side, oooo where we had so much in store, tell me what is it all reaching for, when were through building memories il hold yesterday in my heart, in my heart

chorus
they can take tomorrow and the plans we made, they can take the music that wel never play, all the broken dreams, take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday, they can take the future that wel never know they can take the places that we said we will go, all the broken dreams take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday

you always choose to stay, i should be thankful for everyday, heaven knows what the future holds, or least where the story goes, i never believed untill now, i know il see you again im sure, no its not selfish to ask for more, one more night one more day one more smile on your face but they cant take yesterday,

chorus
they can take tomorrow and the plans we made, they take the music that wel never play, all the broken dreams take everythin, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday, they can take the future that wel never know, they can take the places that we said we will go, all the broken dreams, take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday.

i thought our days would last forever, but it wasnt our destiny, coz in my mind we had so much time, but i was so wrong, no i can believe me i can still find the strengh in the moments we made im lookin back on yesterday

repeat chorus




. . .


Verse one :
The flowers are faded now,
Along with your letters
They will never see the light of day
Cause i'll never take them out
And there's no turning back
It's for the better
Baby I disserved more than empty words
And promises
I believed everything you said
And I gave you the best I hade
Oh.

Chorus :
So take a bow,
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part, and like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
Cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you gave me was pretend
So now... Take a bow

Verse two :
The future's about to change,
Before you know it, the curtain closes,
Take a look around,
There's no one in the crowd,
I'm throwing away the pain,
And you should know that your preformance it
Made me stronger now

Chorus :
So take a bow,
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part, and like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
Cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you gave me was pretend
So now.. Take a bow

Hook :
Well it must have been slight of hand
Cause I still can't understand
How I could never see,
Just what a fool believes
Um

But the lies they start to show,
Tell me how does it feels to know
Right now that I wont be around
So baby before I put you out

Chorus : x2
So take a bow,
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part, and like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
Cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you gave me was pretend
So now.. Take a bow

. . .



There's nothing I could say to you
Nothing I could ever do to make you see
What you mean to me

All the pain, the tears I cried
Still you never said goodbye and now I know
How far you'd go

Bridge:
I know I let you down
But it's not like that now
This time I'll never let you go

Chorus:
I will be, all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart

All my life, I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day
And make everything okay

Verse 2:
I thought that I had everything
I didn't know what life could bring
But now I see, honestly

You're the one thing I got right
The only one I let inside
Now I can breathe, cause you're here with me

Bridge:
And if I let you down
I'll turn it all around
Cause I would never let you go

Chorus:
I will be, all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart

All my life, I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day
And make everything okay

Ending bridge:
Cause without you I cant sleep
I'm not gonna ever, ever let you leave
You're all I've got, you're all I want
Yeah

And without you I don't know what I'd do
I can never, ever live a day without you
Here with me, do you see,
You're all I need

Chorus:
And I will be, all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart

All my life (my life), I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day
And make everything okay

Chorus:
I will be (I'll be), all that you want
And get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart

And all my life, you know I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day
And make everything okay

I feel it, you feel it
That this was meant to be.
I know it, you know it
That you were made for me.
We came tonight, not any longer
Day by day we're getting stronger.
I want it, you want it
It's what the people want to see.

We're like Romeo and Juliet
Fact leaves fate to find us.
Like the tallest mountain on the widest sea
Nothing's big enough to hide us.
When we make love its overwhelming
I just touch the heavens
You're an angel, you're an angel

I said this world, this world.
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don't wanna go to sleep
Cuz' you are like a dream
For every night I see you there,
And I swear you are the answer
You're an angel, you're an angel, you're an angel.

So we take it and each moment that I pause
I see it, you see it,
What we have is made of gold
We're so filled with meaning,
Nothing can make us shallow.
So I hold it, and you hold it
The promise of tomorrow.
When we make love its overwhelming
I just touch the heavens.
You're an angel, you're an angel

And I said this world, this world
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don't wanna go to sleep
Cuz' you are like a dream
For every night I see you there,
And I swear you are the answer
You're an angel, you're an angel, you're an angel.

I don't need three wishes
Oh I just need one
For us to never be finished
For us to never be numb
When they say it's over
We'll just say I love you
And when they say it's finished
We'll just keep on building.

And I said this world, this world
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don't wanna go to sleep
Cuz' you are like a dream
For every night I see you there,
And I swear you are the answer (x2)

You're an angel, you're an angel, you're an angel.

Yes you are. You're an angel

This is a crazy world
These can be lonely times
It's hard to know who's on your side
Most of the time

Who can you really trust
Who do you really know
Is there anybody out there
Who can make you feel less alone
Some times you just can't make it on your own

If you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I'll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, hmmm

If you have broken dreams
Just lay them all on me
I'll be the one who understands
So take my hand

If you reach emptyness
You know I'll do my best
To fill you up with all the love
That I can show someone
I promise you you'll never walk alone

Well if you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I'll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, oooo

Everybody needs somebody who
keep a heart and soul in two

Well if you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I'll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, Here I am

. . .


How many times
Are you gonna take it
Look in my eyes
Help me make this make sense

Night after night
You sat up and cried
Wondering when you're gonna see things clearer
You don't even realise
That at this very moment
You're talking to yourself in the mirror

It's true
So you think I'm strong but you're feelin that you're weak
Baby I'm you
But we're one in the same so you're just as strong as me
Baby I'm you
And we deserve better it's time for us to leave
You know what to do
Cause I'm not a fool
So neither are you
Baby I'm you

Oh you're not crazy
If only you'd realise
That you and I
Have all the help we need

So why are we sitting here on the floor
(listen to me)
We ain't cryin no more
I am your soul
I am your heart
My strength is yours (Oh my strength is yours)

Baby it's true
So you think I'm strong but you're feelin that you're weak
Baby I'm you
But we're one in the same so you're just as strong as me
Baby I'm you
And we deserve better it's time for us to leave
You know what to do
Cause I'm not a fool
So neither are you
Baby I'm you

So pick yourself up right now
We've been here too long
We've overstayed it enough
That might have been
It's been a long time gone

So wipe away the tears
Ain't nothing for us here
The time has come to move on

Oooohhhhhwwww

Baby we deserve better
And we're far too strong
To let this go on
Baby I'm you

So you think I'm strong but you're feelin that you're weak
Baby I'm you
But we're one in the same so you're just as strong as me
Baby I'm you
And we deserve better it's time for us to leave
You know what to do
Cause I'm not a fool
So neither are you

Baby I'm you [x3]

. . .


I was so in love with you
There was nothing i could do
Wouldnt give me the time of day
Now you wanna be with me
You say you wanna be with me

You said i was the best
Gave your love out the rest
There was nothing i could say
Its going good for me
You say you wanna be with me .. Now

Yeh your telling me that

But i aint havin none of that....

Because i told you , you would look to regret it ,
Now i thought it would make it you feel bad,
But when it comes to me just forget it,
Ill be the best you never had,
You put me through so many emotions,
Now baby its besides the fact,
Cos in your empty heart i left a mark,
The best you never had.

No, No, No

Its only as a friend,
Baby i dont want revenge,
But if you must know the truth,
What you didnt see in me
Thats what u'll never be nooo,
When your telling me i was always the one,
I feel disareason.

Becuase i told you , you would look to regret it ,
Now i thought it would make it you feel bad,

But when it comes to me just forget it,
Ill be the best you never had,
You put me through so many emotions,
Now baby its besides the fact,
Cos in your empty heart i left a mark,
The best you never had.

That was... Good love....My stuff
Thats what you missed out on
My touch... show much we could have
You miss,
My kiss,
My lips,
The love i had for you
Also so long, baby dont it make you sad...

Because i told you , you would look to regret it ,
Now i thought it would make it you feel bad,
But when it comes to me just forget it,
Ill be the best you never had,
You put me through so many emotions,
Now baby its besides the fact,
Cos in your empty heart i left a mark,
The best you never had.

Because i told you , you would look to regret it ,
Now i thought it would make it you feel bad,

You put me through so many emotions,
Now baby its besides the fact,
Cos in your empty heart i left a mark,
The best you never had.

Well i will always be the best you never had

The best you never had

. . .



The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies my love

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move through my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love

The first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face




. . .


You walked with me
Footprints in the sand
And helped me understand
Where I'm going

You walked with me
When I was all alone
With so much unknown
Along the way

And just when I
I thought I'd lost my way
You gave me strength to carry on
That's when I heard you say

I promise you
I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow
And despair

And I'll carry you
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
When I'm weary
Well I know you'll be there
Cause I can feel you
When you say

I promise you
I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sadness and despair
Oh, I'll carry you
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand

(choir)

When your heart is full of sadness and despair
I'll carry you
When you need a friend

I promise you
I'm always there
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints
In the sand

. . .


What if I told you
It was all meant to be?
Would you believe me
Would you agree?
It's almost that feeling
That we've met before

So tell me that you don't think I'm crazy
When I tell you love has come here and now

A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Everything changes
But beauty remains
Something so tender
I can't explain
Well, I may be dreaming
But till I awake

Can't we make this dream last forever?
And I'll cherish all the love that we share

A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh, I can't believe its happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Could this be the greatest love of all?
I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall
So let me tell you this...

Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
(Some people wait a lifetime)
A moment like this
(Some people search forever)
Ohhh...
That one special kiss
I can't belive it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

A moment like this
