It's extra dark tonight
but this house stays light
cause you've gone and left me alone
thats when the thought occurs to me
To
Run Run Run...
I've got the strength to carry
the weight of my mistakes
they have kept me anchored here
but I'm ready to give it all it takes
Out this door
Down this street
it's all stained with memories of you
which only pushes me not to retreat
Cause Imma
Run Run Run...
Now I'm lost in this dark city
With no where to go
With the street lights illuminating my pack bags
All I feel
All I feel
Is free
All I feel is free
Cause Ive
Run Run Run... x2

I Can't Believe It
03:17
|

I wonder how you keep it alive?
White golden sparkling eyes.
Filter through venetian blinds,
I’m staring all the time.
But it’s when the sunshine hits your face,
I can’t believe it.
It’s silly how we fight and sometimes
your sense of humour is different to mine
Reflection from the window sill
Is blinding me until
But it’s when the sunshine hits your face,
brighter than a million stars in space,
I can’t believe it.
Soft hair that’s tied in a knot
Brightly dark and never been cut
You look up and smile as you see
I can’t believe it’s me.
But it’s when the sunshine hits your face,
brighter than a million stars in space,
safe within my arms; your smiling grace,
I can’t believe it.
But it’s when the sunshine hits your face,
brighter than a million stars in space,
safe within my arms; your smiling grace,
rolling in the softest clouds of lace,
I can’t believe it
I can’t believe it
I can’t believe it
I can’t believe it.

Need A Little Time Away
05:18
|

We got a long way to go
but if we keep going slow
we’ll arrive on time.
And if it’s not true I know
We need some time away
We need some time away from it all
Come on darling, we need a little time away
Forget the phone and unplug the internet
Come on gorgeous, who gives a shit what they say
It’ll all be there tomorrow and then the next day
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Angel won’t you come around
Pack a beach bag and towel
We’ll hit the wine
No one can follow us from now
I’ve covered our tracks just fine
We need some time away
We need some time away from it all
Come on darling, we need a little time away
Forget the phone and unplug the internet
Come on gorgeous, who gives a shit what they say
It’ll all be there tomorrow and then the next day

Red Red Rose

O my Luve is like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve is like the melody
That’s sweetly played in tune.
So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.
Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.
And fare thee weel, my only luve!
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my luve,
Though it were ten thousand mile.

Thoughts All Drown
03:13
|

It seems to me that boredom
Is on the rise again
Time seems so slow
The stillness makes me solemn
I’ll fall asleep again
There’s nowhere else to go
Turn the radio down
The traffic outside makes that din
And my thoughts all drown
Grab the keys we’ll take a spin
With the windows down
Take a left, take a right
No stops on this frenzied flight
Except to get som gas
So we can drive all night
If you want me to
But it won’t seem long
Just enjoy the sights
I’m here to comfort you
When it all goes wrong
I wind my window down
The water outside rushes in
And my thoughts all drown
Grab the keys we’ll take a spin
With the window down.
