You
03:08
|

|
In the quiet I can hear you breathing
I lean into you to hear your heart beating
And I'm lost in your embrace
Mirroring the smile upon your face
And if I could stop time forever
This would be what I remember
Chorus:
You holding me
And you loving me
And you never letting go
You never let me go
Sometimes love must rely on silence
It's so hard to fight the hearts inside us
And when you know you've found the right one
How can you stop what love's begun
But I cannot stop time forever
This is what I'll remember
Chorus
On that summer day
I was so amazed that
You held me
And you loved me
And you never let me go
You still hold me
And you still love me
And you never let me go

Here with Me
04:19
|
|||
|
It's been awhile since somebody could make me smile
Somehow you do it easily
I used to hide everything I felt inside
But you're the one who set me free
Chorus:
And when you're near all my worries disappear
'Cause I can feel you
You're here with me
And when you say it's all gonna be okay
I know it's the truth
You're here with me
I tried to run from a story that had barely begun
You stood your ground and held on tight
I didn't believe that love could come and never leave
I'm not afraid to lay it on the line
Chorus
You understand the way I am
You love me like no one else ever can

Still the Same
03:50
|
|||
|
Rumor had it you were back in town
Thought you'd like it if I came around
Just a visit for old times' sake
Even though it's been quite a while
I'm still dazzled by your gentle smile
Some feelings you never shake
Chorus:
It's still the same way I remember - the same
You're still the man I once knew
I still feel the same way after all these years
'Cause I'm still in love with you
I must say time's been good to you
Tell me now what you've been up to
I knew that you would do well
She makes you happy and you're doing fine
No thought about me or what you left behind
But I know why I fell
Chorus
Seeing you here takes me back to a time I thought I'd left for good
Being with you here makes me wish that it could
Be the same

Run to You
04:35
|
|||
|
Waking up in strange places
Surrounded by strange faces
I'm so very far from home
Wandering 'round knowing no one
All I want now is someone
To tell me I'll be fine on my own
And when loneliness comes knocking on my door
And I know that I can't take it anymore
Only one thing I can do
Chorus:
I run to you with my tears
I run to you with my fears
I run to you and you are here to see me through
I run to you
On the outside looking in
Don't know where I should begin
I just need a helping hand
Feel I'm swimming against the tide
What a crazy impossible ride
But I know that you understand
'Cause when loneliness comes knocking on my door
And I know that I can't take it anymore
Only one thing I can do
Chorus
And though I'm all alone and on my own
I know you've been here too
And every day you light my way
So I can run to you
And I will run

Unspoken
04:11
|
|||
|
Sitting under the starry night
In the silence I wonder why
Things play out the way they do
Were you wondering if I could be there
Were you wondering if I'd ever care
Did you know I was thinkin' 'bout you
Worlds apart but closer than you know
Hard to say if you should stay or go
For what you need and what you believe
Chorus:
If I speak now something might be broken
Do you understand the life I've chosen
Tell me would it be better for you and me if it stayed unspoken
Now you're talking, I close my eyes
And I'm praying that I'll realize
Why this choice is so hard to make
If by chance I turn you away
Would it all turn out okay
That's a chance I'll have to take
We are worlds apart but closer than you know
Hard to say if you should stay or go
For what you need and what you believe
Chorus
It's so hard to see what you want and have to turn it away
Maybe when you understand we'll talk again someday

When You Look at Me
03:44
|
|||
|
Baby when you look at me
Tell me what it is you see
Do you see everything about me
Baby when you're standing near
Tell me isn't it unreal
How you know everything that I feel
Chorus:
Trusting you makes me so scared
I stand before you with my soul bared
In spite of everything you see
Will you, could you, I know you will still love me
Baby when the words won't come
Tell me why I find
You know everything on my mind

From Here
03:30
|
|||
|
They give you your walking papers
On graduation day
And after all this time you still don't know your way
They tell you you'll change the world
And you'll be just fine
But now that you're on your own you're slowly losing your mind
Chorus:
And you say
Where do I go from here
Where do I go
Where do I go from here
You're feeling the pressure on you
To be someone great
They told you life was beginning
But you think that you're too late
Chorus
And now you wish someone would help
But no one can help you be yourself

Across the Miles
03:46
|
|||
|
Every day I wait for you to come safely home
I can't wait until the day I can hold you once more
I can still feel you holding me
A soft kiss I can taste
I can see the tears you hold back
A brave smile on your face
Chorus:
Across the miles I'll send my love
Across the miles I'll send my heart
I'll be counting every minute we're apart
Have you seen me in your dreams
Am I just a memory
Do I ever cross your mind
Are you still waiting for me

Beneath My Skin
03:15
|
|||
|
So you really think I'm helpless
And that's just how I am
You say you understand my ways
But I don't think you can
You refuse to see reality and step outside your world
Drop your pride to see my side
And take a walk with me
I know soon you'll see
Chorus:
There's so much more beneath my skin
Than what you see with your eyes
There's so much more that you can't take in
'Til you learn to see inside
So you really can't imagine that I'm more than you see
Open up your jaded mind and really look at me
You refuse to see reality and step outside your world
Drop your pride to see my side
And take a walk with me
I know soon you'll see

Ordinary Girl
03:49
|
|||
|
If you ask me if I love you
I would tell you that I do
But I turn you down so much
Will you pick me up again
I'm so perfect at living my life wrong
I keep letting go but you keep holding on
Chorus:
Why do you wanna give me extraordinary grace
I'm just an ordinary girl
I hold out for something small
And pretend it was your miracle
My fear became my crutch
But you're much bigger than I am
I'm so perfect at living my life wrong
I keep letting go but you keep holding on
Chorus
Why do you wanna love me in extraordinary ways
I'm just an ordinary girl

Faithless
That should have been my name
'Cause I always do the same thing every day to push you away
Broken
That's how I always feel
When your presence becomes real to me
And then you heal me
Chorus:
And I can't go
'Cause I know
I'll never find a love like yours
Anywhere but where you are
Empty
Without you in my life
I need you by my side to guide me
Chorus
Stay by me when you try me and I fail
I know you'll always be there
