A Wedding Dance
05:48
|
|||
This is a wedding dance,
This is romance,
This is our song.
This is the sound of children's cries,
And bonfire nights,
Of birthdays and love.
This is what traps a man,
This is what makes a man,
It's why I'm alive,
It's that one cold moonlit night
I stepped inside the embers of your heart and soul,
Standing on some gravesite, I took your lily-white hand in mine,
And called you my betrothed
We've been through everything,
Each little painful sin,
And still we belong.
Living in little flats,
Wearing those little hats,
We were hand in hand alone.
Fighting the biggest crowd,
Having to do without,
I'd do it all again.
For that one cold moonlit night
I stepped inside the embers of your heart and soul,
Standing on some gravesite, I took your lily-white hand in mine,
And called you my betrothed
So may I have this dance,
Give me another chance,
A moment here with you.
We'll kiss like it's Valentine,
Like it's just been made a crime,
Like we're drunk on the dance floor.
This is a fallen star,
This is our Noah's Ark,
This is our song.
It's that one cold moonlit night
I stepped inside the embers of your heart and soul,
Standing on some gravesite, I took your lily-white hand in mine,
And called you my betrothed
This is a wedding dance,
This is romance,
This is our song.

Friend in the Mirror
04:40
|
|||
Say you're hopeless
I will hold you up for one night
Hold my hand in solitude
Be my highest light
They say you're coming out again
They say you're coming out again
I don't know what that means
But I can't make it better
My friend in the mirror
Hoh hoh hoh, who?
Hoh hoh hoh, oh...
Hopeless is the heart
That makes up all these tales just to get on by
I believe in the joys of love
If you walk a mountain to get on high
Say we can be everloved
Show me there's a better song
Somewhere round the corner
Now I can't make it better
My friend in the mirror
Oh, oh, oh, who?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I can't make you better
My friend in the mirror
Oh, oh, oh, who?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I feel the everglades
I hear the water run down
I hold the hand of light
It's the only hopeless night
I hope to never know
All the pain that you can show me
As you stare into my
Stare into my eyes
Hell now
I can't make it better
My friend in the mirror
Oh, oh, oh, who?
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Autumn of Our Love
03:31
|
|||
The autumn leaves they blow in the wind
The colded rain it falls like the snow
And the empty sun no longer gives heat
Under the autumn moon, our flower cannot grow
Tell me my friend, what can we do
When winter's in the autumn of our love
Tell me my friend, where can we go
To get summer back in the autumn of our love
And I love only you
Yes I love only you
The seasons leave their fruit on our memories
Our seed it grows in the womb of mother earth
But why should our seasons fade and die
Just so our flower's seed can be renewed
Tell me my friend, what can we do
When winter's in the autumn of our love
Tell me my friend, where can we go
To get summer back in the autumn of our love
Tell me my friend, what can we do
When winter's in the autumn of our love
Tell me my friend, where can we go
To get summer back in the autumn of our love
And I love only you
Yes I love only you

Flower and the Rain
04:52
|
|||
The sun shines not as warm, now you've gone away
And the breeze no longer gentle, because you would not stay
In the lonely empty nights, bring memory, tears and pain
But I wait here for you my love, like a flower waits for the rain
Yes I wait here for you my love
Like a flower waits for the rain
Like a flower waits for the rain
My dreams and thoughts drift back, to the days we had together
And sometimes my heart decries, and I wish time had stopped forever
In the lonely empty nights, bring memory, tears and pain
But I wait here for you my love, like a flower waits for the rain
Yes I wait here for you my love
Like a flower waits for the rain
Like a flower waits for the rain
Oh rain, rain, rain
Sweet pain, pain, pain
Like a flower waits for the rain
Said I wait here for you my love, like a flower waits for the rain
Said I wait here for you my love
Like a flower waits for the rain
Like a flower waits for the rain
Oh rain, rain, rain
Sweet pain, pain, pain
Like a flower waits for the rain

What It's All About
04:41
|
|||
Like a city all a'glow, how it feels to humbly know
The lover of your soul
Some you gain and some you lose, a million trinkets, more for fools
Time will tell, and break the spell
'Cause when the lights go down
And you see your golden crown is in tatters
When there's fire on the breeze
And the kingdom of your dreams has been shattered
It doesn't matter
If you love her
It doesn't matter
If you love her
People turn away from you, yellow-bellied, hands of blue
Loneliness might serve you best
Swim the ocean of the sky, growing aching wings to fly
Along the ground, where love is found
'Cause when the lights go down
And you see your golden crown is in tatters
When there's fire in the trees
And the kingdom of your dreams has been shattered
It doesn't matter
If you love her
It doesn't matter
If you love her
One day when we're all done
Got to ask yourself the question
What did I truly desire
Higher
'Cause when the lights go down
And you see your golden crown is in tatters
When there's fire in the trees
And the kingdom of your dreams has been shattered
It doesn't matter
If you love her
It doesn't matter
If you love her
'Cause when the lights go down
And you see your golden crown is in tatters
When there's fire on the breeze
And the kingdom of your dreams has been shattered
It doesn't matter
If you love her
It doesn't matter
If you love her

Rest of Our Lives
03:34
|
|||
If you want to start your running
You'd better get fit
An escape from our love
I will offer it
If you need to hide away
We can learn to lay stone
A neat little fortress
Call it a home
There's a light in the dark
It had better be you
There's a dawn outside
If you're ready
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
I don't want to waste a minute
Can you feel the light of always
Tugging at your coat
Everybody got the bug
They all want to be afloat
If you need to burn your bridges
We got fire and smoke
But time isn't waiting
Forever in hope
There's a kiss on the lips
And a table for two
There's a door outside
If you're ready
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
I don't want to waste a minute
You only get one light
Even if you don't
You only get one try
Even if you don't
You only live one time
Even if you don't
You only get one glide
Even if you don't
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
I don't want to waste a minute
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
These are the years of the rest of our lives
I don't want to waste a minute
I don't want to waste a minute
I don't want to waste a minute
I don't want to waste a minute
I don't want to waste a minute
I don't want to waste a minute
