Because of You

How you feeling?
You feeling fine?
As I can feel it
All the time
When I saw you in the sunlight
The sky it felt so high
This feeling feels so right and it’s all
Because of you
You’re the reason
To be right
The right decision
Every time
When I saw you in the moonlight
The stars shone even more bright
This feeling feels so right and it’s all
Because of you
It’s all because of you
It’s all because of you
It’s all because of you
It’s all because of you
When I saw you in the moonlight
The stars shone even more bright
This feeling feels so right and it’s all
Because of you
It’s all because of you
It’s all because of you
All because of you

Awake
03:38
|
|||
These days have never felt so easy Now I’m next to you
And these hands have never felt such safety As when they’re holding you.
Oh holding you
Oh It’s been a long time Sleeping through the dark But now, I’m awake
I’m awake
These lungs have never breathed so deeply Lying here with you
Oh here with you
And nobody has ever found such feelings As the ones I found for you
There all for you
Oh It’s been a long time Sleeping through the dark But now, I’m awake
I’m awake
So many times
I have lost my way
All my life
Shrouded in my mistakes
But I won’t cry, no
Honey I won’t be afraid, no
Because now I’m awake Oh I’m awake
Oh I’m awake Oh I’m awake Oh I’m awake I’m awake.

Fault Line
03:43
|
|||
I can see you
But I can’t breath you in
No one loves you
Quite like I do
Behind your eyes I see the light
I’ll be your fault line, fault line
I’ll be your fault line, fault line
Just give me some of your time, your time
And I’ll be your fault line.
How can we go
On with the show
You’re too much to lose
Hearts split in two
Behind your eyes I see the light
I’ll be your fault line, fault line
I’ll be your fault line, fault line
Just give me some of your time, your time
And I’ll be your fault line.
Fault line
Fault line
Just give me some of your time, your time
And I’ll be your fault line.
Fault line
Fault line
Fault line
Fault line

Seduced
03:11
|
|||
So cold
My body’s on fire
You’re the cure
My only desire
Emotional for you
Oh I’ll wait in your shelter to be seduced
Hold on
Take me with you
To belong
I need you like water
Emotional for you
Oh I’ll wait in your shelter to be seduced
Emotional
Emotional for you
Oh I’ll wait in your shelter to be seduced
Oh I’ll wait in your shelter to be seduced

Hold Tight
04:29
|
|||
Call me when the light
Has past it’s final form
As when all is said and done
We’ll howl up to the moon
Pick me up and take me
Back towards you
We will cry alone
When this time is through
Oh but for now
I’ll hold my head up high
As the sun it sets the sky alight
I’ll hold my women tight
For I am home
With her only on my mind
I’d break my strength in two
To give the rest to you
If only I could choose
I’d take the bait for you
Building back those pieces
That broke along the way
Soon enough we’ll find
Our place amongst the pain
Oh but for now
I’ll hold my head up high
As the sun it sets the sky alight
I’ll hold my women tight
For I am home
With her only on my mind
Oh for now
I’ll hold my head up high
As the sun it sets the sky alight
I’ll hold my women tight
For I am home
With her only on my mind
I am home
With her only on my mind
I am home
With her only on my mind

Tape
03:44
|
|||
Fade me out from the crowd
I wanna be left alone for a while
As I can’t stand
Thinking about
About you
Take this broken heart
And wrap it in tape to hide its scars
Oh I can’t stand
Worrying about
About you
And I wanna feel like
Somebody strong
When time finds me
As I come back home
And I don’t realise Y
ou are gone
Wait, where have you gone
Oh I can’t take all this no more
Just to give the rest to you
Oh baby I can’t stand
Being away from
Oh from you
Being away from
Oh from you
Being away from

Summer Sun
03:21
|
|||
To every women’s work
There’s a man undone
With a dying thirst
And a heart in love
Oh baby
I’ll go wherever you go
You’re the reason for breathing
The calm in the storm
The change in the seasons
Your my summer sun
Yeah you know
Wherever you go I’ll go
So come baby come
Because I’m telling you
You’re my summer sun
Come on baby come back to me
As the light is fading
My skin turns cold
I need you to save me
I need you to know
That I’ll go
Wherever you go I'll go
So don’t tell me
That you love another one
Because I’m telling you
You’re my summer sun
Oh baby
Wherever you go I’ll go
So come baby come
Because I’m telling you
You’re my summer sun
Come on baby come back to me
So come baby come
Because I’m telling you
You’re my summer sun
Come on baby come back to me
Come on baby come back to me
Come on baby come back to me

Rigmarole
03:29
|
|||
What a life
I can breathe
I can see
And my teeth are clean
But I’m on my knees
Saying please honey
Show me life
I ain’t ever seen
Because I’ve still got
The same old distractions
Weighing me down
Hoping that I stick around, But I am
On my way
No more
As I’m sick to death
Of the Rigmarole
I love my Mum
I love my brothers
I lost my Dad
And a few others
And when I see
What’s around me
Well I can’t tell
If I’m drowning
So come,
and show me true colour
AsI ’m in a rut
and I really want to get out from it, So I’m
On my way
No more
As I’m sick to death
Of the Rigmarole
Well I’m on my way
No more
As I’m sick to death
Of the Rigmarole
I’m on my way
But no more
As I’m sick to death
Of the Rigmarole
Of the Rigmarole
Of the Rigmarole
Of the Rigmarole
