Feelin' blue, while I'm trying to forget the feeling that I miss you
Feelin' green, when the jealousy swells and it won't go away in dreams

Feelin' yellow, I'm confused inside
A little hazy but mellow when I feel your eyes on me

Feelin' fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind

Oh oh

Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind

You make me colour blind

Feelin' red, when you spend all your time with your friends and not me instead
Feelin' black, when I think about all the things that I feel I lack

Feelin' jaded, when it's not gone right
All the colours have faded, then I feel your eyes on me

Feelin' fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind

Mm mm

Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind

You make me colour blind

Blinded by the light you shine, the colours fade completely
Blinded by you every time, I feel your smile defeat me

I'm colour blind
I just can't deny this feeling

Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind

Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind

You make me colour blind

I'm colour blind

(Danesh/Glenister/Lew)

She's got a blind smile and a soft touch
A cute little dimple when she laughs too much
They say you fall hard when you meet her
Such is her allure

She's got a quick wit and a fast tongue
But she doesn't seem to know that she's the one
They say she cheats charm when she whispers
She's devilishly pure

You'd see if you knew her
She doesn't know
But its time I told her so

CHORUS

When I see your blushes
From a compliment of mine it touches
Something inside I'm getting rushes
The adrenaline rushes
And I'm fascinated
That you really don't know how to take it
When I look at you that way you feel naked
And I'm so into you
I'm getting rushes

She's about five nine
Got a sexy stride
With long tanned legs that she shouldn't hide
With a fine air of innocence
Nonchalance in every move
She's a sweet sensation tease temptation

She looks good enough to eat
She's a fallen angel with a devilish streak
And so they say
Like with like will finally meet

You'd see if you knew her
She doesn't know
But its time I told her so

CHORUS

And I like it and I want more
And I like it and I want more
And I like it and I want more
Never felt it like this before

It's more than adrenaline rushes
It's the touch and the smell of skin rushes
Some call it "love at first sight"

I call it "butterflies" (I call it butterflies, I call it butterflies)

CHORUS

(Danesh/Christy/Spock/Edwards)

You said its over 
I said "that's ok 
I wasn1t in to you anyway" 
I told you "lately 
you irritate me your laugh is too loud 
you're the last girl I'd look at 
if you were in a crowd" 

Could you tell? 
I was lying and hiding the truth away 
and what I really wanted to say 

CHORUS: 
is you are incredible you are amazing 
you blow my mind one of a kind 
I'm having a meltdown 
you are incredible you are amazing 
but sometimes telling the truth 
is easier said than done, 
"don't leave baby" - 
now that's what I meant to say

"My worlds not ending I'll be just fine" 
That's what my mouth said 
but not what I felt inside 
I told you "baby, 
your not the answer to all of my prayers 
cos I like my girlfriends in short skirts with longer hair" 

could you tell? 
I was lying and hiding the truth away 
and what I really wanted to say

CHORUS 

Well I said I didn't care about what you felt about me 
couldn't care less about what I said or done 
I didn't mean it - its not what I meant to say 
you know the truth is that I care 
about what you think about me 
maybe too much, I've been puttin' on a front 
I didn't mean it - and what I meant to say 

is you are incredible you are amazing 
you blow my mind one of a kind 
I'm having a meltdown 
you are incredible you are amazing 
but sometimes telling the truth 
is easier said than done, yeah yeah 
telling the truth is easier said than done. 
Can't you see 
telling the truth is easier said than done. 

How can I sleep tonight?
Tell me how Mars survived
Fallen with stars -
She opened her arms...
Venus was in my sky.
How could it pass me by?
You silently served my time,
Even thru chains,
Rust and the rain -
You pulled away the tide.
chorus
Girl In The Moon,
I'm half-way there,
Girl In The Moon,
I see you everywhere...
Help me find a way of falling
Closer to you,
Girl In The Moon,
Girl In The Moon...

How could I weep tonight?
Touch and tears collide -
Gravity spins
Me into your wings,
And covers me in 
your light...

Chorus

You're the silent silver 
lining my cloud
You're the secret flame 
That never burns out,
Pull away this veil
And rise into view
Girl in the moon...
Pull away this veil
And rise into view
Girl in the moon...

So many times we find ourselves here -
Looking just about anywhere
But in each others eyes, 
I'm wondering why...
So many chances brushed then wasted,
So many matches almost won in injury time -Nobody cried...
We're kicking pieces out of each other,
Instead of kicking the pain in our hearts -
Where do we start?
Chorus
Well we can reach,
And we can climb,
And we can turn this ship around in time -
That's why I'm holding out for you
I'm not buying that it's over
You can tell me anything
But I'm not buying that it's broken.

So many fixes come too easy,
Leave us so unsatisfied -
Chasing the kite, addicted to high...
So many patches we have worn,
So many promises left still born We're so blind, we kill more than time
Intoxicated, drowning each other -
Instead of drowning the pain in our hearts...
Where do we start?

Chorus

We'll walk with innocence
We'll leave the ignorance
We'll run together, let's break this silence...
Don't wanna fight no more,
Wanna feel the light some more,
Let's run together and break this silence...
I'm holding out for you,
Reaching out for you,
No way that this is through -

If we just If we just
We can reach, we can reach 
We can reach, 
And we can climb, 
And we can hold on by our feelings to what is right. 
I'm holding out for you, 
I'm not buying that it's over, 
I'm holding out for you, reaching out for you, no way that this is through 
You can tell me anything, 
Sell me anything, 
To hell with everything, 

So what's it all about? 
I can't work you out...
There's a chemistry between us Getting hard to disguise -
Still you're holding back, 
Some kind of panic attack -
Treading water when you 
Really should be turning the tide...
Don't spend a lifetime waiting,
Don't tell me no -
Just let go...
If you want it, then you got it -
Don't let this moment pass you by,
Take a long shot, 
Give it all you got -
You'll never know unless you try,
You can only sink or swim,
Baby, just dive in...
So what's the worse thing 
That could be happening?
(You test the water and you 
find that it's a little too hot)
But I'm imagining, 
The taste of salt on your skin -
Make your move, you gotta choose - Are you ready or not?
Don't waste a lifetime waiting,
You know its now -
So turn around...
Chorus
Just dive in, just dive in...
Let's dive in -
Into the blue; Into the deep; 
Into the mood tonight
Dive In...
Chorus

Come with me -

I feel vulnerable, I'm scared...
I hang on every word like 
Like there's a hidden meaning.
It caught me unprepared...
Now I'm climbing up the wall 
That stands between us.

I keep hoping it's my 
imagination,
Playing tricks with my heart 
On this occasion,
I've just got this sinking
feeling

So whose gonna drown 
Now the dams about to break?
Tell me if it's me 
I gotta know...
I'm strong enough to tell you 
That it's more than I can take -
I'm just hanging by a thread, 
Gotta feeling I'm in over my 
head,
Can't wait until tomorrow... 
Gotta know tonight.

I feel naked in your eyes
I'm so outta control feels like 
I'm freewheeling
Are we running out of time?
I gotta find a way 
To stop this feeling...

I keep hoping it's my 
imagination,
Playing tricks with my heart 
On this occasion,
I've just got this sinking
feeling

Chorus

Cos when you pull back the covers,
Its one way or the other,
Oh yeah,
It's getting closer to midnight -
I gotta go,
Can't wait until tomorrow...
I gotta know -

Another Friday night,
And the week is over -
Got a bottle of wine
And a meal for one,
Never could have known
She was walkin with me in the rain.
Another back to back,
Down the escalator,
Beat the sliding doors
By a twist of fate,
Than a glance behind an 
evening paper -
And there she was...
Lonely's gone -
Suddenly I got this feelin,
Lonely's gone -
I spin around,
Yeah Yeah
I've left the ground,
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Should I make a move?
Did she catch me falling?
What I got to lose?
Will she cut me dead?
Before I catch my breath,
Can't believe she's walking 
Off my train...
Beat the sliding doors -
Is she gone? Don't lose her,
Gotta keep my head -
Someone taps my shoulder,
Then I spin around and 
She's just smiling -
I guess she knows...
Chorus
Is this fate or happenstance?
Her design or my last chance?
I can't speak 
Cos she takes my breath away...
So it's Friday night,
And the day is over,
Crack a bottle of wine,
Make a meal for two -
But there's no room on the 
dining table...
Here we go, Here we go...

I love you. You love me
But you never say that to me,
I want you. You want me
So how come I don't believe?
It's in the way you kiss my face,
And in your every move...
Won't you tell me something
Simple Like the truth -
Even if it isn't "I love you"?
Won't you let me know your heart,
And lay me down...
Is it so hard to tell me?

"It's nothing,
Don't be stupid,"
How come you always 
Say that to me?
"It's alright, take it easy,"
But easy is so hard to be...
It's in the way you
Brush me by,
The way that you make love...

Chorus

It's not that I'm weak 
Baby I can't take it,
It's not that I'm blind -
I can see you fake it...
If you only knew what I'm going thru -
Then you'd find the words to whisper
Or you'd find the strength to leave...

Chorus

I watch you. You're reading
But baby you're so hard to read.
I love you. You love me

I thought I knew you, 
Better than I knew myself, girl, 
I thought I found you, 
Hiding in the strength that's in your eyes, 
But now I see you, 
Burning all the bridges in your world, 
And now I feel you, 
Sinking in the quicksand of your life 

Can't you see that you're slipping away (Oh) 
Can't you hear what I'm trying to say 
(Better than that) 

Chorus: 

Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
You're better than that
And you can turn back
(What's tried is torn)
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
I'm telling you its killing you 
It's drowning you, it's spilling you over
(What's tried is torn)

I thought you knew how, 
To chase away the demons of blind trust, 
I thought you knew now, 
It's all about temptation changed by choice, 
You know you're crazy, 
You're hanging on to reasons turned to rust, 
Your eyes are hazy, 
You've gone and lost the velvet in your voice 

Can't you see that you're slipping away (Oh) 
Can't you hear what I'm trying to say 
(Better than that) 

Chorus 

I told you once, I told you twice, 
I told you, baby, 
Now there's nothing more to say. 
I'm missing the girl I knew, 
While I'm kissing the broken you, 
And can't you see you'll be... 

So don't back, face up to the facts
And you can turn back -
You're better than that.

Better than that, stronger than that, 
Wiser than that, bigger than that
You're better than the devil in you
Tellin you how, pulling you down,

He tells you when. He tells you why. He tells you wherefore.
What to do and how it's done, and how to be for him.
It's all about control. It's all about control.
You're his life. You're his strength. But he's you're weakness,
He knows you care, knows you give, but he couldn't care less.
He fits you to his mould, chipping at you soul...

Chorus

It tears me up to see the way that he treats you,
To see the way that he brings you down and down.
He's turning you inside out.
It breaks me up to see the way that you take it,
To see the way that he spins you round and round
Turning you upside down...
Mockingbird,
Mockingbird...

Afraid to leave. Afraid to lose. Afraid of living.
You turn to him. You turn to me. But it lies in you.
It's waiting to be found,
It's waiting to be found,
So feel your heart, Feel your pain, Feel your anger,
If you fight the fear, find the words, you'll find the answer.
Like a cat held upside down,
You'll land feet on the ground.

Chorus

You never know what life will bring.
Trust your spirit. Find your wings.
Find your voice and let it sing
Let it sing...

Eleven days,
A dozen nights, 
A thousand tears,
And you are my shoulder.
From summer's haze, on morning light,
The sun is rising...Just like I told you.

Chorus
If you fall, I'll never let your spirit break,
If you call, I'll always soothe the cries you make,
If it's all I can do, I'll slowly kiss your dreams awake
You're not alone for heaven's sake,
Mercury rising

From winter skies,
A cold embrace -
The shadows meet,
And they drag you under...
The moonlight's mine
And yours to chase -
Your star is rising,
Beyond your wonder...

Chorus

You're not alone for heaven sake
Your tears run so freely,
Your fears run so deeply down...
The pressure is breaking.
Quicksilver awaking now...
Can you feel it rise?
Can you see it rise?
Droplets of dreams 
That you touched, disappear...
There's change in the weather, 
And wind in your hair,
And Mercury's rising,
Mercury's rising
Rising...
Rising...
Rising...
Mercury's rising...

Eleven days,
A dozen nights, 
A thousand tears... 
And you are my shoulder.
From summer's haze, on morning light,
The sun is rising...

I feel vulnerable, I'm scared

Now I'm climbing up the wall that stands between us

I keep hoping it's my imagination
Playing tricks with my heart on this occasion

So who's gonna drown now the dam's about to break
Tell me if it's me
I gotta know
I'm strong enough to tell you that it's more than I can take
I'm just hanging by a thread, gotta feeling I'm in over my head
Can't wait until tomorrow
Gotta know tonight

I feel naked, in your eyes
I'm so out of control it feels like I'm free-wheeling
Are we running out of time
I gotta find a way to stop this feeling

I keep hoping it's my imagination
Playing tricks with my heart on this occasion
But I've just got this sinking feeling

So who's gonna drown now the dam's about to break
Tell me if it's me
