BLUE
Some days are blue
Hard to see right
Just know that daylight comes
It always follows night
So keep faith and search the heavens for a sign
It’ll be alright, it’ll be alright – every time
Waiting for the halo in the sky
I know it’s everything sometimes
And it ain’t easy to define
I know when the sun don’t shine
It’s so far away
I know tears fall – all over your heart
I know that everything will be alright
Waiting for the halo in the sky
Some days are blue, some days are light
Open your heart, search the sky for a sign
Hold on to hope in the glitter of stars
The warmth of the sun is never too far
Waiting for the halo in the sky
AMERICA
Come with me to America
I’m going to find my dreams
Every night she calls to me
With her torch of liberty – America
You can have it all – in America
Hold your heart, walk tall – for America
The land so brave and free – America
It must be good for me – America
I’m packed and ready, set to go
Where the city never sleeps
That’s OK, I won’t need rest
When I’m living out my dreams in America
Fly with me to America
I’m going to find my heart
It drifted there so long ago
I cannot stay apart from America
You can have it all – in America
Hold your heart, walk tall – for America
The land so brave and free – America
It must be good for me – America
You can have it all – America
I’M NOT SORRY
I am not sorry, but finally wise
And I know that look in eyes
Could never tell a single truth
Before you have enough to lose
I am not sorry, you may have guessed
That this cool is not in jest
Don’t count your blessings before they’re freed
They may not stay within your reach
Shallow – your words to me
[Your] Calling song
And now when you go
You take as you leave
The fallen stars and their own
Shallow – your words to me
[Your] Calling song
And now when you go
You take as you leave
The fallen stars
And broken hearts
The cheating parts of the game
I am not sorry, but I am fine
With the way things have aligned
Your every word, your very name
Are to my heart as Novocaine
I am not sorry, I don’t confess
It’s not my style, this ain’t my mess
Don’t count your blessings before they’re freed
They may not care for what you need
What you need

L’EDGE
the fall into loveless eyes
and sweetness of pretty lies
walking the borderline
between desire and a fading passion – mine
there’s no emotion
I could feel to replace the love I’m leaving
there is no reason why
the wall I face should ever weaken
I know I’ve fallen under
way over my head into another
one breath away from no return
I’m waiting
I’ve walked a million miles
in search of comfort and belonging
I’ve faked a million smiles
and kept the boxes that they come in
I know what I want and I don’t regret it
I know how I feel and I can’t forget it
I’ll take what I can don’t ask me to leave you
alone
I know I’ve fallen under
way over my head into another
one breath away from no return
I’m waiting
I know I’m going deeper
if this is the end it is no clearer
one breath away from no return
I’m waiting
Smother me with a million kisses
Killing me with a million misses
alone
WELCOME TO MY CHRISTMAS
Where is she now
Your little song about Christmas
worth infinitely more than
‘if you blinked you would have missed us’
well, it’s the closest I’ll get
to a term of endearment from you
my sweet lover of emotionless secrets
Are you holding her close?
your little song about Christmas
more special than most
but you’re open to experience
well, you don’t do it often
is that line a standard
before servicing those that beauty abandoned
that beauty abandoned
Where do you go when I’m not there
I don’t know and I don’t care
‘Tis the season you know
to be gay and be jolly
I am Queen of an ocean of
cheap plastic holly
your little song about Christmas
well, she’s safe at home
wet with the scent of your fresh mistletoe
wet with the scent of your fresh mistletoe
wet with the scent of your fresh mistletoe
SWIM
“don’t turn your back on love”
(they said)
“it just takes a little faith”
well it took my perseverance
and carved in it a name
I’m going to need a reason
find me a river and I’ll swim
a man must have his love
and a man must have his maid
the foul and the fragrant
– is it my imagination ? –
lie one under the other
I need a better reason
find me a river and I’ll swim
oh I know way down
for the light that shines brightly
I’d go right now
“don’t turn your back on love
don’t turn your love away”
(they said)
“hold it in the heart of your embrace
in the risk you’ll have to pay”
if You would be a river
if You would be a reason
would I take to water?
