No AngelHere With MeI didn't hear you leaveI wonder how am I still here I don't want to move a thing It might change my memory Oh I am what I am I'll do what I want But I can't hide I won't go I won't sleep I can't breathe Until you're resting here with me I won't leave I can't hide I cannot be Until your resting here with me I don't want to call my friends They might wake me from this dream and I can't leave this bed Risk forgetting all that's been Oh I am what I am I'll do what I want But I can't hide I won't go I won't sleep I can't breathe Until you're resting here with me I won't leave I can't hide I cannot be Until you're resting here with me HunterWith one light on in one room,I know you're up when I get home With one small step upon the stair, I know your look when I get there If you were a king up there on your throne, Would you be wise enough to let me go For this queen you think you own Wants to be a Hunter again, Wants to see the world alone again To take a chance on life again, so let me go. The unread book and painful look, The TV's on, the sound is down One long pause, then you begin, Oh look what the cat's bought in If you were a king up there on your throne, Would you be wise enough to let me go For this queen you think you own Wants to be a hunter again, Wants to see the world alone again To take a chance on life again, so let me go, let me leave For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now And I don't know what to say to you but I'll smile anyhow And all the time I'm thinking, thinking I want to be a hunter again, Want to see the world alone again To take a chance on life again, so let me go. Don't Think Of MeSo you're with her, and not with me,I hope she's sweet, and so pretty I hear she cooks delightfully, A little angel beside you So you're with her, and not with me, Oh how lucky one man can be I hear your house is smart and clean, Oh how lovely with your homecoming queen Oh how lovely it must be When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me So you're with her, and not with me, I know she spreads sweet honey In fact your best friend, I heard he spent last night with her Now how do you feel When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me And it's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me Oh it's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me Does it bother you now all the mess I made Does it bother you now the clothes you told me not to wear Does it bother you now all the angry games we played Does it bother you now when I'm not there When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me And It's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me Oh it's too late, oh it's too bad, don't think of me. My Lover's GoneMy lover's gone,His boots no longer by my door, He left at dawn, And as I slept I felt him go Returns no more, I will not watch the ocean, My lover's gone, No earthly ships will ever Bring him home again, Bring him home again My lover's gone, I know that kiss will be my last, No more his song, The tune upon his lips has passed I sing alone, While I watch the ocean, My lover's gone, No earthly ships will ever Bring him home again, Bring him home again All You WantI'd like to watch you sleep at night,To hear you breathe by my side And although sleep leaves me behind, There's nowhere I'd rather be And now our bed is oh so cold, My hands feel empty, no-one to hold I can sleep what side I want, It's not the same with you gone Oh if you'd come home, I'll let you know that All you want, is right here in this room, all you want And all you need, is sitting here with you, all you want It's been three years, one night apart, But in that night you tore my heart If only you had slept alone, If those seeds had not been sown Oh you could come home and you would know that All you want, is right here in this room, all you want All you need is sitting here with you, all you want I hear your key turning in the door, I won't be hearing that sound anymore And you and your sin can leave the way you just came in, Send my regards to her I hope you've found that All you want, is right there in that room, all you want All you need is sitting there with you, all you want I'd like to watch you sleep at night, To hear you breathe by my side. Thank YouMy tea's gone cold, I wondering why I got out of bed at allThe morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my wall It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad I drank too much last night, got bills to pay, my head just feels in pain I missed the bus and there'll be hell today, I'm late for work again And even if I'm there, they'll all imply that I might not last the day And then you call me and it's not so bad, it's not so bad and I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life Push the door, I'm home at last and I'm soaking through and through Then you handed me a towel and all I see is you And even if my house falls down now, I wouldn't have a clue Because you're near me and I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life. HONESTLY OKI just want to feel safe in my own skin,I just want to be happy again I just want to feel deep in my own world But I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore On a different day, If I was safe in my own skin, Then I wouldn't feel lost and So frightened But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin And I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore I just want to feel safe in my own skin, I just want to be happy again. SlideEven on a day like thiswhen you're crawling on the floor Reaching for the 'phone to ring anyone who knows you anymore It's all right to make mistakes, you're only human Inside everybody's hiding something Staring at the same four walls, have you tried to help yourself The rings around your eyes they don't hide, that you need to get some rest It's all right to make mistakes you're only human Inside everybody's hiding something Take time to catch your breath and choose your moment Don't slide Even at a time like this when the morning seems so far Think that pain belongs to you but it's happened to us all It's all right to make mistakes you're only human Inside everybody's hiding something Take time to catch your breath and choose your moment Don't slide You bought this on yourself and it's high time you left it there Lie here and rest your head and dream of something else instead Don't slide. IsobelI thought it was funny when you missed the trainWhen I rang you at home they said you'd left yesterday I thought it was strange when your car was found By the tree in Ennis where we used to hang around Dear Isobel, I hope you're well and what you've done is right Oh it's been such hell, I wish you well, I hope you're safe tonight It's been a long day coming and long will it last When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass By loving you more. And who he would become, all the things he'd have done Would he have loved you and not let you down And would he be stronger than his father Don't punish yourself, leave it well alone Dear Isobel, I hope you're well and what you've done is right Oh it's been such hell, I wish you well, I hope you're safe tonight It's been a long day coming and long will it last When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass By loving you more. I'm No AngelIf you gave me just a coin for every time we say goodbyeWell I'd be rich beyond my dreams, I'm sorry for my weary life I know I'm not perfect but I can smile And I hope that you see this heart behind my tired eyes If you tell me that I can't, I will, I will, I'll try all night And If I say I'm coming home, I'll probably be out all night I know I can be afraid but I'm alive And I hope that you trust this heart behind my tired eyes I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try and try I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly I know I'm not around each night And I know I always think I'm right I can believe that you might look around I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try and try I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly. My LifeWhat I choose to do is ofno concern to you and your friends Where I lay my hat may not be my home, but I will last on my own Cos it's me, and my life, it's my life, it's my life Oh the world has sat in the palm of my hand not that you'd see And I'm tired and bored of waiting for you and all those things you never do Cos it's me, and my life, it's my life, it's my life. Take My HandTouch my skin and tell me what your thinking,Take my hand and show me where we're going Lie down next to me, Look into my eyes and tell me, Oh tell me what you're seeing So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling, What you feel now is what I feel for you Take my hand and if I'm lying to you, I'll always be alone, if I'm lying to you See my eyes, they carry your reflection, Watch my lips and hear the words I'm telling you Give your trust to me and look into my heart and show me, Show me what you're doing So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling, What you feel is what I feel for you Take my hand and if I'm lying to you, I'll always be alone, if I'm lying to you Take your time, if I'm lying to you, I know you'll find that you believe me, you believe me Feel the sun on your face and tell me what you're thinking Catch the snow on your tongue and show me how it tastes Take my hand and if I'm lying to you, I'll always be alone, If I'm lying to you Take your time and if I'm lying to you, I know you'll find that you believe me, you believe me |

of you And I'm afraid to sleep 'cos if I do I'll dream
of you
Lyin' alone in the darkness with a memory in my
head, And I'm afraid to sleep 'cos if I do I'll dream
of you I'm afraid to sleep.
Don't Leave HomeLike a ghost I'll need a key, I've come to theeAnd please don't think of getting up for me You don't even need to speak When I've been here for just one day You'll already miss me if I go away So close the blinds and shut the door You won't need other friends anymore Oh, don't leave home Oh, don't leave home
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
And I arrived when you were weak
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
Oh how quiet, quiet the world can be
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
Because I will be your safety Coming HomeHe feels her smile when he's afraid,it reminds him of his life before she went away He might crumble, but he'll not fall, if the memory of his only love can stay that way Still has his dreams, they will get him through, till his life means something more than to lose
Cos he's still wondering when she's coming home
He sees his friends, turns on that charm,
He's missing out on life,
And he's still wondering when she's coming home
