Colours Of Joy

1.
There's something on the horizon That we can't see There's one thing on our mind We can't forget We once shared All those dreams we had together We once cared For all the things that we do to each other All the places we went together All the things that you did That made you shine I'll break your fall Lay down on your floor If you don't mind Try to understand I only want it like before If you don't mind They say there's a cure For this sadness The feelings that we felt Once before Regardless Of what you made me think about you It's been too long I've spent so many nights without you Wondering if it was all true All the things that you did That made you shine I'll break your fall Lay down on your floor If you don't mind Try to understand I only want it like before If you don't mind If you don't mind If you don't mind

Greater forces have had no luck In turning my world inside out Some sympathy would leave me cold In these dark times, you will be the loudest of noises Let those lights illuminate your weakened tired heart Take these hands and it will all make sense For you're my amazing grace You're my amazing grace Carve our names on trees and walls We’ll leave our memories at the door Another story, a different ending We will explode in colours of joy This flicker of fire is more than enough to get me through the day Now take my hands and it will all make sense For you're my amazing grace You're my amazing grace You’re my amazing grace You're my amazing grace You're my amazing grace

And so the day will come When you will say hello As you turn your back to the water We will finally run together It wasn't long ago I can still hear your words You left me out to dry For we weren't meant to be Meant to be Together Together Now stay with me And I will say no more Now stay with me And we’ll wake up In the morning To watch the sun Rise together Now run with me And I will say no more Then you will see There is a faint light of hope Now will you stay with me? Then this will be the end Of us

This is all I can take No more murders No more pain No more lies Oh is this the end Of all that you've done Can I open my eyes To the world? The lights are upon us It's time to close the door I can't go much further This place doesn't feel like home Feel like home So slip away Out into the wild Forget the pain This has gone too far Too far My words are growing thin Another season Passes by Without the rain This feeling of discontent Numbs my fingers I can't feel Your warmth The lights are upon us It's time to close the door I can't go much further This place doesn't feel like home So slip away Out into the wild Forget the pain This has gone too far Too far Get on your own way Get on your own way Get on your own way Get on your own way Get on your own way And let me down Get on your own way And I'll sing for you Get on your own way And let me down Get on your own way And I'll sing for you

Bonfire 05:02
Made my way back home I don't see many changes Feel the winter cold I feel I've been away Away for ages Bonfires burning Bright as red Bright as your face lit aglow I feel I want to stay And I feel I don't want to go To go away Truth to be told I don't have much time Anymore We're all getting old But I feel you haven't aged Even a single day A single day
6.
It's a different kind of sadness Different kind of loneliness Where nothing's set in stone And nothing's overblown Well so much for the promises So much for the aftermath Of what could have been Of what should have been It's in those dreams Where we spent days in the sun Where you saw me fade to black As the colours brightened your world We'll never see the skies again Now I’m stuck here on this side of the glass You seem to turn away From my every stare From my every word And this is how the story ends And this is how you treat me like a tired dog On a leash It's in those dreams Where we spent days in the sun Where you saw me fade to black As the colours brightened your world We'll never see the skies again
7.
This is not the time To start all over again Hints of winter breaks through It's that time again I will fight fire with fire If you ever let me There'll be no reason to cry For here you'll never be Where's your kiss goodbye? Before you run off to him This door will be slammed shut And I'll be waiting again I will fight fire with fire If you ever let me There'll be no reason to cry For here you'll never be History Will never repeat itself The scars that it has left Will heal in time History Will never repeat itself The scars that it has left Will heal in time, in time, in time I will fight fire with fire If you ever let me There'll be no reason to cry For here you'll never be You'll never be forgotten The films and the music you loved They will destroy my heart And life will force me to live And to learn To live And to learn

Starlit Eyes 04:15
Oh listen to the sound Of my beating heart As you speak This sweetness in my mouth Burning Left by you And now love has taken me over Yet love will never be for us Let the light wrap you with its arms When the afternoon comes Leave me naked when you turn around And I will settle for a smile Your words float in the air Now enchant me with your starlit eyes And now love has taken me over Yet love will never be for us Let the light wrap you with its arms And you can feel it in your bones Leave our memories that never were And this shall be my paradise
9.
I'm holding tightly The pillows that you gave I hope that suddenly Tomorrow comes today Don't look in the past You'll never get what you came for Never look in the past This moment's all that we have now All that we have now Love songs and lullabies Never heard before I can't help wondering Why can't I love you more? Don't look in the past You'll never get what you came for Never look in the past This moment's all that we have now All that we have now
10.
Another rush of blood And I'm lost again The mind wanders into darkness And I've lost control again Living in words and letters I've forgotten what love is Under pressure to provide I have lost control again This is more than us This is more than love This is all I want Now let me hear you say those words again Bending over backwards In an effort To survive No matter how bittersweet this will be I will lose control again This is more than us This is more than love This is all I want Now let me hear you say those words again Overpowered by my emotions I have lost control again Let your light shine over me And I shall be yours again This is more than us This is more than love This is all I want Now let me hear you say those words again This is more than us This is more than love This is all I want Now let me hear you say those words again
11.
Passing by the same old houses Driving down the same old road Saying hello goodbye To the same old people Tell me why Did I see the signs? Tell me what Did I do this time? So why'd you go And leave it all behind And now your words have grown much shorter The lies, those despicable lies Tell me a different story About the castles in the sky Tell me why Did I see the signs? Tell me what Did I do this time? So why'd you go And leave it all behind There is no place for fear In a heart so alone There is no place for fear In a heart so alone There is no place for fear In a heart so alone There is no place for fear
