In the middle of the night

I got me a little light

It burns on

I can feel it changing me

I can see what I believe

I get turned on

Open up and breath it in

It'll come around again

It burns on

And you're not that far behind me

And you're not that far behind me

The space that I'm under

Is making me wonder

What is out there

When gravity frees me

It will release me

Into the air

Suddenly I have new eyes

Got my baby by my side

It's so pure

I wanna watch my lover shine

Did you know that you are mine?

And I'm yours

And you're right there beside me

And you're right there beside me

The space that I'm under

Is making me wonder

What is out there

When gravity frees me

It will release me

into the air

I'm trippin' on starlight

Everything's all right

Everything's all right

And I feel...

And I feel love, love the world

And I feel love, love the world

around me

The space that I'm under (The space that I'm under)

Is making me wonder (Is making me wonder)

What is out there (What is out there)

When gravity frees me (When gravity frees me)

It will release me (It will release me)

Into the air (Into the air)

I'm trippin' on starlight (I'm trippin' on starlight)

Everything's all right (Everything's all right)

Everything's all right (Everything's all right)

Every night
I'll never put the lights out
Cause someone else
Will drive around
Cause I'm coming 'round
Boys, boys, everywhere
But not a drop to drink
I want to find a good one
Who still knows how to think

And it's everything and nothing
That I thought it would be
And it's nothing and everything
That I thought it would be

I need desire, to feel alive
I want a fire
To burn me up inside
So I'm calling angels
Help me to tonight
(help me tonight)
Tonight...

Every night
I'll never put the lights out
Everyone's talking
But no one's listening
Pretty faces, fancy places
Nothing keeps you high
Everyone's wasted
Won't look you in the eye

And it's everything and nothing
That I thought it would be
And it's nothing and everything
That I thought it would be

I need desire, to feel alive
I want a fire
To burn me up inside
So I'm calling angels
Help me to tonight
(help me tonight)
Tonight...

Every night
I'll never put the lights out
Do you go look for love
Or does love come look for you?
I take my head, I put on make-up
In case he comes around
In the morning, when I wake up
Will I turn it down.

I need desire, to feel alive
I want a fire
To burn me up inside
Rearrange the heavens
Is making me this right
So I'm calling angels
Help me to tonight
(help me tonight)
Tonight...

Every night
I'll never put the lights out

There's a lot you don't know.

There's a lot you don't know.
And there's a lot I can't tell.
Would you think I'm crazy
If you knew me that well?

Cause there's a lot you don't know
But you say you won't go and I'd like to believe you.

But I know there's no one left to save me.
(I am the only one.)
There's no one left to save me.
(I am the only one.)
There's no one left to save me.

Is it all in my head
Or somehow is it truth?
Is it something I said?
I can offer no proof.

Cause there's a lot you don't know
But you say you won't go and I'd like to believe you.

But I know there's no one left to save me.
(I am the only one.)
There's no one left to save me.
(I am the only one.)
There's no one left to save me.

Yeah there's a lot you don't know
But you say you won't go and I'd like to beleive you.
And I know but you say you won't go
And I'd like to believe you.

But I know there's no one left to save me.
(I am the only one.)
There's no one left to save me.
(I am the only one.)
There's no one left to save me.

Maybe you like the chains
Maybe you like the grace
To see this for what it really is
Baby I need some space
Cause love I can see your face
So close to mine
Close to mine

I need you to just be patient
I need you to just be patient
Love
Love
Love

Baby don't take my heart
Cause it's the only part
That is my own
Is my own
Baby you need my cry
Darlin' just know that I
Sometimes need to be alone

I need you to just be patient
I need you to just be patient
Love
Love
Love

I need you to just be patient
I need you to just be patient
Love
Love
Love

Slow… moving train
Slow… moving bus
Slow… moving plane
I've got to find a way to us
And now outside, the driving rain
It keeps me in, and I know I must
Find a way to get through the pain
I've got to find a way to us

Well I want you
But I want you to believe in my life
It's now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together

Your eyes they tell of the deepest places
And I need a man I can trust
So drink up now, for the celebration
Of finding a way to us

Well I want you
But I want you to believe in my life
It's now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together

It took so long for you to see
(It took so long for you to see)
What you wanted us to be
It took so long for you to see
(It took so long to see)

Well I want you
But I want you to believe in my life
It's now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together

Slow… Moving train
I've got to find a way to us.

I heard about it last week,
That you were thinking about leaving me.
Oh, you can be so sweet,
But you can be such a stubborn girl when you wanna be.

Louisa, won't you think it over,
Won't you think it down?
Louisa, if you won't think it over,
Will you look me up when you come around?

Don't you know you're my best friend?
And I've been having such a hard time making new ones.
I guess everything comes to an end.
I had you for a moment,
now you're gone.

Louisa, won't you think it over,
Won't you think it down?
Louisa, if you won't think it over,
Will you look me up when you come around?

You see I'm afraid that you'll go far away,
And raise a family that I'll never see.
Don't you know that I need to see your face,
To see your face, to see your face?

I heard about it last week,
That you were thinking about leaving me.
Oh, I want you to be happy,
But I can be such a stubborn girl when I wanna be.

. . .


You can't fight
To make it better
You can't cry..
And hope that this won't end
Some say love
It is forever
But all I know…
Is that we're just friends

[Chorus]
So,
I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back
To you…
I'll give it all back
I'll give it all back
To you….

Yeah…

Now you know me
Like no other
And you know when
I'm telling lies
So you believe
If you wanna
But you know I
I wanna say goodbye

[Chorus]

You can't fight
To make it better
You can't cry
And hope that this won't end
Some say love
It is forever
But all I know…
Is that we're just friends

[Chorus]

Yeah….

(so, I'll give it all back, I'll give it all back…)

I didn't know that I would love you like I do
I didn't think that I was ready to
But there's something about the way you take my hand,
it's like I never touched a man

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and
you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing
You make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you I unravel

I didn't know that love would fill me up so good
I tried before but then you know it never would
But there's something about the way you call my name,
now I'll never feel the same

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and
you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing
You make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you I unravel

And when you hold me I feel more and more a woman
I never knew that I could feel so free
(x2)

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and
you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing
You make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you

And it's a beautiful thing
You make me shy and
you make me proud
It's a beautiful thing
You make me laugh out loud
And when you pull me to you I unravel

I didn't know that I would love you like I do
I didn't think that I was ready to

. . .

You're Right

[No lyrics]

. . .


What will you do now
Everyone has gone home
Leaving in quiet
And leaving us to be alone
I waited too long to say
I tried to pretend…
I only want you to stay

If just for tonight
Don't let me go
I won't mind it
Maybe it's right
We will never know
I don't mind it….

The day is through now
Doesn't feel right..
I can't stand the quiet
So I lay awake
All through the night
We'll journey on
And just let it play
Don't ever let it end
I only want you to stay

If just for tonight
Don't let me go
I won't mind it
Maybe it's right
We will never know
I don't mind it….

Wait for a moment
But there's nothing that
I can say to you
So go if you wanna
There's nothing left
For me to do

If just for tonight
Don't let me go
I won't mind it
Maybe it's right
We will never know
I don't mind it….

If just for tonight
Don't let me go
I won't mind it
Maybe it's right
We will never know
I don't mind it….
I don't mind it…. (x3)

. . .


Maybe I should've known, my baby
To leave you alone, maybe

Maybe I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

Oh, but you couldn't stay, now could you?
Oh, you wouldn't say, now would you?

Oh, but I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

When the world is on your back
and life is anticipating
Well if you think it's love you lack,
mine's here waiting
(x2)

Oh' but I'll let you go
I should've known to let it go

And you didn't know, now did you?
That I'd fall in love with you
Oh, but now it's too late
It's useless to say

I should've known (x10)
