Coming home to your shelter
Coming home where I stay

I go down in your water and I won't turn away

Coming back to your calling
I can hear your voice say

Coming home for tomorrow from my dreams of yesterday

You may not understand me but I hear you so well

Your voice comes in the cold wind , a tune I know so well

I can see you through any darkness
Your light it leads me on

I'm coming back to your orchard
Coming back to my home

People ask me where are you going, and I know I know what they think
I get tired , tired of their questions so I must find a way

To meet you down at the old grounds ,where we used to pray

I'm coming home for tomorrow from my dreams of yesterday

My heart my head my mind my soul
My feelings over you

My tears my touch remember all that I am to you

My heart my mind my soul
My feelings over you

My tears my touch remember all that I am

When you're gonna pick up the phone and call me
Tell me I can come over

I got my ticket and my bags are packed
My coat is hangin' over my shoulder

Time is passing and it's getting late
This heart of mine just can't wait

And after all that we've been through
I maybe get there and I'll give it to you baby

My heart my head my mind my soul
My feelings over you

My tears my touch remember all that I am to you

My heart my mind my soul
My feelings over you

My tears my touch remember all that I am

Standing by the window and lookin' out
My heart is turning I want to shout

You're complicated I don't want to complain
The way you're acting can you explain

Why all this love is wasted on you
Can I live with all that is you

You say you love me silence I can't hear
All I want is to be near you baby

My heart my head my mind my soul
My feelings over you

My tears my touch remember all that I am to you

My heart my mind my soul
My feelings over you

My tears my touch remember all that I am

I'm looking for a reason to stay true

Looking for our love
Looking at me and looking at you

And even if I could turn away and then
I see that I'm falling in love again

Some times I wanna give you up
Some times I want to leave you alone
Some times I want to run away
And some times I want you to come back home
Come home to me yeah yeah baby
I know I know you'll be good for me
Come home come home
Yeah baby
I'm right here baby
Come home to me
Yes I'm right here baby

Yeah all I am to you

Hey mann what you doing here
I don't remember letting you in

Hey mann how d'you get in here
You're in my heart without consent

I always took pride in my selfcontrol
To my heart only I had the key

But something's gone wrong with my radar screen
You slipped by and you captured me

Hey mann what you doing here
I don't remember letting you in

Hey mann how d'you get in here
You're in my heart without consent

I've done all I could to keep my head clear
Logic tells me that this should never be

But there's no mistaking the shape I'm in
Love has filled my every waking day

Hey mann what you doing here
I don't remember letting you in

Hey mann how d'you get in here
You're in my heart without consent

Now hear, here's the strangest thing
The day has come I thought I'd never see

I walk smiling in a lightglow and I'm calling out your name
I've lost the battle and I'm quiet well pleased

Hey mann what you doing here
I don't remember letting you in

Hey mann how d'you get in here
You're in my heart

Hey mann what you doing here
I don't remember letting you in

Hey mann how d'you get in here
You're in my heart

Your love is eternal , I never should have touched you
Broken words fill my mouth 'cause I never said goodbye

But what does it matter , who really cares
In this river of faces , in this new windy place
I will lose all your traces , I'll go and find another angel

One more word and I would have followed you
From behind my silent door I've been waiting , ready to go

But what does it matter , who really cares
In this river of faces , in this new windy place
I will lose all your traces , I'll go and find another

No one can stop me , I'm gonna run till I get free
'Cause I can wait until you're gone from me , hmm

So what does it matter , who really cares
In this river of faces , in this new windy place
I will lose all your traces , I'll go and find another angel

Hmmm , another angel

I want to be wild and bold enough to run with you , my baby
I want to skip time lay the hours aside and stay with you , my baby

But oh if I look down now , will I fall
And what if the water's cold , when I fall

I want to be still and quietly say , I'll lay with you my baby
I wish I were brave and sure today to pray that it's you my baby

But oh if I look down now , tell me will I fall
And what if the water's cold , when I fall

Oh oh if I look down now , tell me will I fall
And what if the water's cold , when I fall

Oh oh if I look down now , tell me will I fall
And what if the water's cold , cold when I fall

When I fall , when I fall

You wanna go back , well I'd rather not
Gave you all I had , gave you all I got to give

You had my time , trusted my soul
But it'll be the same play , till I grow old

I want to get higher but you made me low
You made me wonder wich way to go
It could have been good , instead it was wrong
All I want from you , is leave me standing alone

I had to run away , I had to get free
Find my own life , for me to be me

So if you're feeling wry , if you're feeling lost
Don't look to me to help you pay the cost

'Cause I want to get higher but you made me low
You made me wonder wich way to go
It could have been good , instead it was wrong
All I want from you , is leave me standing alone

Just leave me , leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh
Go on leave me , leave me , just leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh

Go take your road , the one you know
And don't worry 'bout me ,or the way I go

When you get home , and you walk free
Just look up , you'll gonna find me

'Cause I want to get higher but you made me low
You made me wonder wich way to go
It could have been good , instead it was wrong
All I want from you , is leave me standing alone

Yeah just leave me , leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh
Go on leave me , leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh
Go on leave me , leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh
Go on leave me ,just leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh
Just leave me , leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh
Go on and leave me , leave me , leave me standing alone
Yeahyeh

I know what you wanna say , I see the words behind your eyes
By the time you show me what you're hiding it won't be no surprise

Why do you keep on whispering
Talking with your face turned away

You say that love don't come easy for you
What makes you think I ain't afraid

Let me in , or let me go
It's time you tell me where you're standing baby

I won't go down if you say no
Just open up your mouth and say it baby

Speak your heart
Speak your heart

You used to say , the world goes away when you're with me
I don't want to be your reacuring dream

Let me out , let me stay after the sun rises
I want to be real to you , no more disguises

Let me in , or let me go
It's time you tell me where you're standing baby

I won't go down if you say no
Just open up your mouth and say it baby

Speak your heart
Speak your heart
Speak your heart
Speak your heart

This is magic , this is new beginnings
This is come into my life , come into my life

This is sunshine , this is how we're livin'
This is come into my life , come into me

This is almost , this is all I wanted
This is come into my life , come into me
Oh oh oh , take me home

When I first met you I almost wanted to run away
What is this , my heart

Now I'm standing and I'm so sure you're the one for me
Oh oh oh , take me home

This is magic , this is new beginnings
Come into my life , come into my life

It's sunshine , this is how we're livin'
Come into my life , come into me

And I will love you , I will love you
Always , I'll never stop

I'm gonna love you , yeah baby always

I will never stop
I'll never stop

Oh oh oh don't you want to take me home

This is magic , this is new beginnings
Come into my life , come into my life

This is sunshine , this is how we're livin'
Come into my life , come into me

This is almost it's everything I wanted
Come into my life , come into me

Oh oh oh don't you want to take me home
'Cause I'm going to love you
I know I'm gonna love you
Yeah yeah , I say always , I'll never stop
Where ever you are , always
I'm gonna be right there
Yeah , I say always baby
You can call on me yeah yeah
Oh always I will be there and I'll never stop
Always I will be there and I'll never stop

I went down to the water , all night long
I'm putting my feet in ,all night long

And I went down to the water , all night long
And I'm putting my dreams in , all night long

And what you think of me ,I can't say
I'll take these bad dreams and I'll drove along the way

I'm at the shore now , the shadows at my back
I can feel the waves coming there , heavy and black

But I can't turn away now 'cause I
They're singin' a song

And I , I'm in harmony
I'm singing along

And what you did to me I , I can't take no more
I'll take these bad dreams and I'll lay them at the shore

The end of the ocean I'll never see
I stare out in the distance and it's looking back at me

And I'll look down to the water all night long
And I'll put my feet in , all night long

And I'll put my dreams in , all night long
And I'll put my tears in , all night long
I went down to the water

If the sun refused to shine , I will still be loving you
If the mountains crumbled to the sea , there would still be you and me

Kind man , I give you my all
Kind man , nothing more

Little drops of rain , whispers of the pain
Tears of love lost in days gone by

My love is strong , with you there is no wrong
Together we will go until we die

But my inspiration that's what you are to me
Inspiration , look and see

And now my world it smiles
Your hand in mine , we will walk for miles

Thanks to you it will be done
You are for me the only one

Happiness , no more be sad
Happiness , I am glad

Little drops of rain , whispers of the pain
Tears of love lost in days gone by

My love is strong , with you there is no wrong
Together we will go until we die

Little drops of rain , whispers of the pain
Tears of love lost in days gone by

Yeah my love is strong , with you there is no wrong
Together we will go until we die

Yeah yeah I just want to thank you yeah
Oh oh oh I just want to thank you
Thank you yeah
Yeah yeah

Strange , how you stopped loving me
How you stopped needing me
When she came along

Oh how strange

Strange , you changed like night and day
Just up and walked away
When she came along

Oh how strange

Well I guess I was just your puppet you held on a string
To think I thought you really loved me , but look what thoughts can bring

Strange , you're still in all my dreams
Oh what a funny thing
I still care for you

Oh how strange

Well I guess I was just your puppet you held on a string
To think I thought you really loved me , but look what thoughts can bring

Strange , you're still in all my dreams
Oh what a funny thing
I still care for you

Oh how strange

So strange

How strange

So strange
