Maybe its all down to the thought of her Maybe its all down to the loss we learned Knew for a long time, for all its worth I wanted to run to you What if Im caught up and its me youre calling? What if Im lost now cause of demons comin When she kissed me, I felt a new freedom or something Well, move on I found a moment to be brave, so I let her know And she said, How could I love you back? You who dropped your dreams in the gutter And in my winter, shell be burning slow Feels like December knows me well Cause I loved ya Does that mean nothing to you now? I loved ya Get me back on homely ground She said, Oh, I know that love is all about the wind How it can hold me up and kill me in the end Still I loved it Does that mean nothing to you now? Days when we all watched til we lost the birds Threw a rose in til it caught the turn Knew it felt right, we were bound to burn I wanted to run to you Maybe Ive lost count of the rooms youre tall in Maybe Ive lost count of the nighttime all-ins So the trees and her were first to know Itll all be good, just hold me well Cause I loved ya Does that mean nothing to you now? I loved ya Get me back on homely ground She said, Oh, I know that love is all about the wind How it can hold me up and kill me in the end Still I loved it Does that mean nothing to you now? Wasnt easy to go, I know You shouldnt have no seat in the front row I know, I know Wasnt easy to go, I know And the sun came out, day late though I know, I know Wasnt easy to go, I know He pulled up, flat tyres, ten spokes I know, I know Wasnt easy to go, I know He came all that way just to say, Hello I know, I know Cause I loved ya Does that mean nothing to you now? Cause I loved ya Get me back on homely ground She said, Oh, I know that love is all about the wind How it can hold me up and kill me in the end Still I loved it Does that mean nothing to you now?

When love was found I kept my hope just like Id hoped to Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue And coming down And weve had problems that weve grown through But I bet you dream of what you could do At seventeen, I was alright Was like nothing I could feel inside And wishing you were here tonight is like holding on But I still get to see your face, right? And thats like nothing they can take, right? So there wont be no feeling in the firelight Hoping thisll be right Time to show your worth, child I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit Thats no way to be living kid The angel of death is ruthless And Im always thinking summertime with the bikes out Pushing our luck, getting wiped out Days with nothing but laughing loud Underneath my coat, wont you tap my shoulder, hold my hand Nights with nothing but dark in there You could be my armor then Island smiles and cardigans The nights that weve been drinking in Were here to help you kill all of this hurt that youve been harboring Confessions should be better planned Alone, that night, Im surely damned Run away,. Ill understand Whats important is this evening I will not forget Purple, blue, orange, red These colors of feeling, give me love, Ill put my heart in it And I think about it all the time Lights went out, you were fine You kinda struggle not to shine I still love you, though I still love you, though I still love you always So hold me when Im home, keep the evenings long Crack and break and part ways I still love you, though I still love you, though I still love you always So hold me when Im home, keep the evenings long Lets not crack and break and part ways And I wonder if I could let her down Its for real, its for real Its for real, its for real
Keeping her bright eyes focused on the coastline, waiting for you Isnt she all of us pining for that last kiss A permanent truth, a means to get through Maybe well cry whilst hopeful when we think about the past being cruel Got a thought for those who start to think of love As the pursuit of a fool, its a palace from ruin Deep into the night, eyes closing Heart swollen with my loving for you A solid embrace, kind face And then the hurt starts leaving the room, followed by goons Sometimes its open wide and lights the road at night Youve got a heart like the moon Gather courage, if youre doing something, do it Cause she got to go soon If I could now, Id never tell you not to love her However, leaving her a long way from her home And that aint no promise, cracking over time A private corner of Roma Dont shadow the light, wait, good love grown If I could now, if I could now If I could now, if I could now If I had you now So keeping bright eyes focused on the coastline waiting for you Dont give me that bye-bye baby when the night moves into black from the blue The nights youve been through Just give me that wide smile made for putting songs into the hearts of the doomed And catch a cold heart staring at the water, babe, remember you flew If I could now, Id never tell you not to love her However, leaving her a long way from her home And that aint no promise, cracking over time A private corner of Roma Dont shadow the light, wait, good love grown If I could now, if I could now If I could now, if I could now If I could now, Id never tell you not to love her However, leaving her a long way from her home And that aint no promise, cracking over time A private corner of Roma Dont shadow the light, wait, good love grown So say what you want, dear But the courage was won With the way that you spoke here When the dreaming was done

Fight on, never let it out, never let it out If Im gone, if you ever leave I hope that you learn To fight on, to fight on Dont tell me this is all for nothin I can only tell you one thing On the nights you feel outnumbered Baby, Ill be out there somewhere I see everything you can be I see the beauty that you cant see On the nights you feel outnumbered Baby, Ill be out there somewhere Baby, Ill be out there somewhere, somewhere, somewhere Baby, Ill be out there somewhere, somewhere
A thief in the night came Took everything you gave for her This song isnt low, lady Its remembering love made in the summer But I think of the things that it taught me I learned that theres beauty I cant keep Learned that theres demons in stories Letting her down, no, I wont be Whenever shes calling, shell call me Angry and seething as the sea Songs in cathedrals in month three Promise youll smile off a memory And I, I, I I couldnt stop smiling like the whole way home Yeah, it should feel like something you were missing To all my friends, youll find your way Some summer night, I hope I see you again All my friends, Id love to stay Some summer night, I hope I see you again Looking up lately The moon doesnt chase me no more Before it was childlike Lost in the soft light, and so on And I, I, I I couldnt stop smiling like the whole way home And yeah, it should be when she read out all shed written To all my friends, youll find your way Some summer night, I hope I see you again All my friends, Id love to stay Some summer night, I hope I see you again The smell of rain and streetlight thrown A love, a lantern in the snow But when she feels it taking hold Finds it so hard letting go How can I tell her that well shine? She dreads the devils yet to show So damn reluctant to expose it to me, so So I think of the things that it taught me She starts to think evil has lost me I walked with the wolves and it haunts me She steps with intention to run free So stunner, dont ever move softly Youve been on a journey they cant see When dancing in ballrooms, you will lead Promise youll smile off a memory And I, I, I I couldnt stop smiling like the whole way home And yeah, it should feel like something you were missing To all my friends, youll find your way Some summer night, I hope I see you again All my friends, Id love to stay Some summer night, I hope I see you again The smell of rain and streetlight thrown A love, a lantern in the snow But when she feels it taking hold She finds it so hard letting go How can I tell her that well shine? She dreads the devils yet to show What I told you when That I told you when
When everything was broken The devil hit his second stride But you remember what I told you Someday, Ill need your spine to hide behind For fear of moments stolen I dont wanna say goodnight But Ill still see you in the morning Still know your heart and still know both your eyes I could have told you ‘bout the long nights How no one loves the birds that dont rise So you can tell the heroes go hide My sense of wonders just a little tired But if only you could see yourself in my eyes Youd see you shine, you shine I know youd never leave me behind But I am lost this time Are we destined to burn or will we last the night? I will hold you til I hold you right But if only you could see yourself in my eyes Youd see you shine, you shine So well run into the open Keep your hand inside of mine And then when everything is over I hope to think of this as better times The sky got red and swollen I guess I never see the signs There cant be songs for every soldier It cant be solace every time you cry I could have told you ‘bout the long nights How no one loves the birds that dont rise So you can tell the heroes go hide My sense of wonders just a little tired But if only you could see yourself in my eyes Youd see you shine, you shine I know youd never leave me behind But I am lost this time Are we destined to burn or will we last the night? I will hold you til I hold you right But if only you could see yourself in my eyes Youd see you shine, you shine I was lost til I found you Now these songs will hold and hide your name All it was was all about you Since that night, the moon has never seemed the same And if only you could see yourself in my eyes Youd see you shine, you shine I know youd never leave me behind But I am lost this time What if the love you deserve is love you never find? Ive learned in love and death, we dont decide And if only you could see yourself in my eyes Youd see you shine, you shine
You call arrows to fall short Because the snow is at our feet And when embraces subside, and the lilies have died It comes down to her tears on a sheet But its alright because You cause lanterns to light And force demons disperse And if Lucifer may fear the swift drying of tears Then, for evil, you could not be worse But I see you now, yeah, I see you And release me now, kinda like dreams do And I see you now, was hard to see you Just dont forget to sing Remember everything Youre the only little girl I know whod bring a kite in the snow Said, You just gonna hold it up? Said, Nah, Im gonna let it go And when your heart hurts, days like today are the antidote If you think just maybe its her Then promise me, young man, youre gonna let her know You wont go lonely, yeah You wont go lonely, yeah You wont go lonely, yeah You wont go lonely, yeah Itll all be better in the morning Cause while you sleep, Ill build a wall Pick a weapon up or something Were bout to have ourselves a brawl In dead of night, one window open He heard her singing down the hall Singing bout him, least he was hoping She left her listener enthralled Woohoo

Thats what she asked me What was promised, what we both agreed But truthfully, if you ever go Youll drop me straight to Hell, the 7th circle And I was talkin with you earlier We were open and vulnerable, it was wonderful I, I used to dream that you would talk to me I used to dream that you would talk to me And I couldnt tell you enough that Im sorry And no, you couldnt tell me enough that you love me But shes bringin the moon and stars to me Damn permanent reverie And even though this life, this love is brief Ive got some people who carry me You know that feelin when you think your heart is gonna come right out through your shirt? Get it a couple times a year But Ive been gettin it more often with her Now when Im face to face with Death, Ill grab his throat And ask him, How does it hurt? Up in those golden moments, growin old too quickly Was he thinkin of her? But shes bringin the moon and stars to me Damn permanent reverie And even though this life, this love is brief Ive got some people who carry me

An Evening I Will Not Forget : When love was found I kept my hope just like Id hoped to Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue And coming down Weve had problems that weve grown through But I bet you dream of what you could do At seventeen, I was alright Was like nothing I could feel inside And wishing you were here tonight Is like holding on But I still get to see your face, right? And thats like nothing they can take, right? So there wont be no feeling in the firelight Hoping this will be right Time to show your worth, child I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit Thats no way to be living kid The angel of death is ruthless And Im always thinking summertime with the bikes out Pushing our luck getting wiped out Days with nothing but laughing loud Underneath my coat wont you tap my shoulder, hold my hand Nights with nothing but dark in there You can be my armor then Island smiles and cardigans The nights that weve been drinking in Were here to help you kill all of this hurt that youve been harboring Confessions should be better planned Alone, that night, Im surely damned Run away.

For the wolves we fought when a child was brave Days on a Southern strand Where wed all pretend to be touring And Id wait all night for the smile youd saved Or how the wind would howl Better head back now, its a warning We were swimming out so far this time The sun and your eyes were the only fire Pretty intimate so far, so I lit a holy fire So we all gather our ghosts around the island flames Oh, and the song she throws is not one I know But it knew me For an age long lost in time, erased Days when they called our names Stories tucked away, you tell it to me We were swimming out so far this time The sun and your eyes were the only fire Pretty intimate so far, so I lit a holy fire Take me back to places I feel loved in Maybe failing that, take me to Boston Strange that Im not seeing you as often Wandering round in cities I feel lost in What if all the costs are even We were swimming out so far this time The sun and your eyes were the only fire Pretty intimate so far, so I Eyes of eye-eye, eyes of, a holy fire
See the killer was a coward Dark deeds in dark towers So he fled when they came Blowing brass, carrying chains They want to lock him in the dark They want to kill whats in his heart They left the town to hunt him down And they left one man to hold it down When they get back hes in the throne Looks like the killers fucking clone Says hes got ideas of his own But theres one thing hed kill to know See, theres a hero in the crowd And his heart starts beating loud Says the killer took his friend And decides that this is where it ends So that night the kings walking the tower His eyes lit up with all the power But the heros ghosting by the guards And his heart, its carrying a charge He stabs him in his cunning heart The scream tore sea and sky apart So you want fears? Weve still got several Least the killers dancing with the devil The hero did it for days When you dont know if the moon will even come And then it lays down And Im telling you, man, its sweet when it does And when I think of you I think of spirit defined I think of all the love that we shared in a very dark time So the hero did it for the summer For long days with that sun in your hair For fires and family For the phrase Dont ever leave me Sorrow wont be finding me no more Sorrow wont be finding me no more Sorrow wont be finding me no more When you coming home now? Sorrow wont be finding me no more Sorrow wont be finding me no more Sorrow wont be finding me no more When you coming home now?

Come home Come home I know youve roamed I know youve roamed Come home Come home I know youve roamed I know youve roamed You came flying out of the corner that you no longer in You felt hurt in your heart but you felt wind on your skin And I know you rose And I know you rose And you keep guarding that garden and it wont be let in And I heard Mr. Garvy said the night will always win And I fear hes right Well light a fire up in the light, theres magic in the night Up on rooftops and you know Stay there in the evening glow Fields of purple breeze that´s thrown But I wish right now that I could grow Be strong Be strong It wont be long It wont be long Be strong Be strong It wont be long It wont be long Now Im homeward-bound, its homely ground The nights rolling in Keep those thoughts in the frosts In the air is cold and thin but Im warm as hell Youve warmed me well Up on rooftops and you know Stay there in the evening glow Fields of purple breeze thats thrown But I wish right now that I could grow
The boats they control appear weightless And the way that you move defines grace, Miss I felt so compelled to create this, you just need to know Sitting out in warm winds, flecks of sun painted on sea You smiled and looked down when I told you it aint bad to be me Give me moonlight, and a smile from you that I can barely believe Baby still holds your hand but she dont feel the same When they ask her who shes living for, Im tellin you, she dont drop your name And I found a new courage that kills cowards before folding in And it took us back to times, when real men were real men Ooh, ooh, ooh You have my word Ill keep watch, Ill keep wishing now under moons for you You have my word Ill keep watch, Ill keep wishing now under moons for you You have my word Ill keep watch, Ill keep wishing now under moons for you So I hold onto your heart And I keep on coming round, coming round this part Ill only grow lonely, my darling, when the silence starts One by one we made it up over that hill And one by one they picked us off, laughing still Let me know, let me know when Ive got room to run Let me know, let me know when that fool is cleaning his gun and Ill run at him And Ill run at him Let me know, let me know, let me know
The monks kicking out at the birds in the square You pushed your boat down the hill Thats not fair Said you worked real hard on that You said I was just sailing for fun But I know his crest will have fallen when darkness has won Oh we were darkness You were hope You give me happiness ten fold And now whenever I roam Im not alone You give me strength and Ill hold on The king loaned his castle to someone he thought he knew But greed sat in the throne, now the raiders are strolling through He lay slumped in the valley Nothing more than a broken man, no Promising the wildlife that hell take it all All back if he can, oh no Oh we were darkness You were hope You give me happiness ten fold And now whenever I roam Im not alone You give me strength and Ill hold The trees dont walk they run wild Saddle up the night, still young as a child I would have seen you cast off into nothing You couldnt see me but our hearts were almost touching White horses running, thats all that what you wrote And that sunset was stunning me too Nothing proud down there Running down wont get one sorry prayer from me From me Cause Im not dragging you out, no No Im not dragging you out, no This isnt me calling you out Im not calling you out Just leave your shoes by the edge of the woods Youve never quite caught me but then, nobody could Well I was free Because Id broken free and I was running
Maybe its all down to the thought of her Maybe its all down to the loss we learned Knew for a long time, for all its worth I wanted to run to you What if Im caught up on its me youre calling What if Im lost now, plus if demons come in When she kissed me I felt a new freedom or something Move on I found a moment to be brave, so I let her know And she said, how could I love you back, you who dropped your dreams in the gutter, In my winter, shell be burning slow Feels like December knows me well Cause I loved ya Does that mean nothing to you now? I loved ya Get me back on homely ground She said, oh I know that love is all about the wind How it can hold me up and kill me in the end, Still, I loved it Does that mean nothing to you now? Days when we all watched till we lost the birds Threw a rose in, till it caught the turn Knew it felt right, we were bound to burn I wanted to run to you Maybe Ive lost count of the rooms youre tall in Maybe Ive lost count of the nighttime all ins So the trees and her were first to know Itll all be good, just hold me well Cause I loved ya Does that mean nothing to you now? I loved ya Get me back on homely ground She said, oh I know that love is all about the wind How it can hold me up and kill me in the end, Still, I loved it Does that mean nothing to you now?
