She flutters up towards the stars in a hopeless dance
Oh the moonlight, how it beckons her on
Oh but the light at the end of your cigarette
Sends me shivers that I know I'll regret.
All of these lights above my head
I feel them tearing me apart
I chose a road that wasn't mine
I left the truth of it behind
Bones all a glow in the dark as you strip me bear
I am beyond all hope of repair
The chase has become nothing more than a reckless game
setting my life and my body aflame
All of these lights about my head
I feel them tearing me apart
I chose a road that wasn't mine
I left the truth of it behind
And like a moth to the flame
I would never come this way again
I have forsaken my night
For a cold florescent light

Solitude

The wind he hums his night time tune
A song of solitude he sings to her
Her eyes are wide yet she barely see's
Through her loneliness he cradles her
Nobody can see in she can't reach out
And still he's holding her, he's holding out
Nobody can see in she can't reach out
And still he's holding her, he's holding out
(Repeat)
Dear Love, you've gone away again
Oh what else can I do, I'm only here for you
Dear Love, if I could just reach out
I'd hold you in my heart
I'd never let you out

Lazy Heart

If I were brave enough
If I were strong enough
If I were wise enough
I might find away
If I were game enough
If I were curious
If I were sure enough
I might break away
But this lazy heart of mine
Has made it's bed
And weary heart of mine
Repeat
I don't know what I'd do
I'm not as brave as you
But I'm a reckless fool
At least I am for you
I don't know what to say
I've always been this way
And its too late to change
Say I should act my age
I don't know what to do
This house is full of you
and yet I'm terrified o
of all thats left behind
If you say jump I fall
I'm at your beckon call
If I were brave enough
If I were brave enough

Night Air

I heard the river running high the other night
It hasn't run like that in years
I heard a rumour that you were headed home
I nearly broke down in tear
Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo
Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo
I heard the wind singing song the other night
It hadn't sung like that in years
A burd was dancing as it echoes down stream
and in return the wind cheers
Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo
Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo
I heard the river running high the other night
It hasn't run like that in years
I heard a rumour that you were headed home
I nearly broke down in tear
Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo
Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo Oo-ooo
