Paradise Again

I want to live the life I love
I want to love the life I live
I want to hold my baby close
and love the most the love she gives
so let's vacation to paradise again
I want to cry, with happines
when suddenly it's love again
I wish I we were younger and wasted our time
and we could feel this feeling then
but looking back, I think it's better this way
(chorus)
if it looks too good for you
maybe it's not even true
sometimes you feel the feeling's alive
sometimes it's just nostalgia's lie
memories longing to stay
you're becoming more born everyday
(verse)
I wish I could see, all I promise to see
and keep the feeling, close to me
I wish I could live with you, inside of this house
and watch the world become something else
and plan our trip to paradise again

Blue Sky Romance

we look so fine
you look better
when you be mine
then I forget her
a breeze rolls in from afar
some music plays from the car
something pulls me away
I'm bathing my soul in this beautiful day
I see you smile
take off your sweater
holds me close
I'm feeling better
the sunset dips for a while
the buildings are drenched in a style
of red and golden sunset shade
it sends its goodbyes then the light starts to fade
(chorus)
blue skies, and I'm lookin' at you
you whisper my name, and I whisper yours too
I'm thinkin' tonight, that the sunset might cast
a romantic light on the city at last
(verse)
and when it gets cold
we stay home
and waste some time
on our own
let's be together alone
let's go for a walk in the sun
and window shop because we're broke
it's not essential but money is fun
the schools are out
don't want to study
or think about
going to work
another weekend with you
escape life into your arms
for now it's just something we do
'cause I'm loving you and you're loving me too

Alive in the Sensation
04:12

last nigtht alight with headlights
advertisements neon signs in the city
the square is lit up like the sun
streetlights shining lighting everyone
and when I'm standing here,
lonliness isn't all that anyway,
alive in the sensation
and when I'm there with you,
home is just an idea that we have made
to break
the intersections empty
cross it through right in the center and look around
sleepy towns don't make a sound
footsteps echo in what ears they found
and when I'm standing here,
lonliness isn't all that anyway,
alive in the sensation
and when I'm there with you,
home is just an idea that we have made
to break

Wash Right Outta Me
03:44

april showers rain down again
each time this year
a ticking clock
time to go outside
my umbrella I take with me
to stop the way
the feelings I got
wash right outta me
springtime, I find
calms me down
it's raining it's pouring
you right outta me!
sometimes smells, will make you feel
like you were young
that's how you know
you're not young anymore
and the wheel, that drives your life
starts up again
and moves you on
to things you got to do
springtime, I find
calms me down
it's raining it's pouring
you right outta me!
and when it's warm
we'd be summer lovin' again
like a branded style that comes once a year
let's pack up and disapear
springtime, I find
calms me down
it's raining it's pouring
you right outta me!
springtime, I find
calms me down
it's raining it's pouring
you right outta me!

Lonely Nights
03:27

I can't can't stop thinking about your face
thinkin' about the taste
of your embrace
I can't stop going about my day
it's the only way
to get me through these
lonely nights...
and the weekend never ends
wonderin' why
you said those things again
lonely nights...
and the summer fades away
wonderin' who
fell in love with you today
I can't can't stop thinking about our love
always thinking of, of the end
I can't start messing around again
I want you back, my friend, and end these
lonely nights...
and the weekend never ends
wonderin' why
you said those things again
lonely nights...
and the summer fades away
wonderin' who
fell in love with you today

The Test
01:24
|
|||
|
(spoken)
Human beings are inherently real; our instinct demands adaptation which in turn causes us to become unatural. The confusion becomes routine and the child slowly becomes more and more born. In this way, even in our own pretenses, we are real. We live and breath under own own microscope, studying ourselves in our own pretri dish, growing as one and as one another. As we become ourselves more and more, we possess the people we were, and study who they are. Finally our past selves die, our futures become the past, and we become closer to both birth and death than we were before. Upon death we become fully born and reach a stopping point. But the test continues on because this is living in the new human experiment.

Thinking About Believing
04:18
|
|||
|
why did I love again?
didn't need you much before I need you now
where was I going to?
when we argue we get blinders, lose the way
and I'm thinking about believing for a while
that my faith in you was draining all away
and I'm thinking of you and feeling so alone
and I read the note you left, and learn to love again
we're both so stubberon
been alone so long I know we're both afraid
why can't we compromise?
I'm as much at fault as you are in the end
and I'm thinking about believing for a while
that my faith in me was draining all away
and I'm thinking of you and feeling so alone
and I read the note you left, and learn to love again

when I woke up that day, I wanted to cry
'cause the nights that I had were bleeding me dry
but then I saw you standing there inside your door
I just don't care about, these things anymore
please please please please please please please please please
never leave me
please please please please please please please please please
never leave me
when I'm sitting alone, I wish you were here
'cause my heart is a mess, and you make it feel clear
but you sit and tell that you love and you'll be the light above me
tell me so, so I know
when I'm sitting alone, I wish you were here
'cause my heart is a mess, and you make it feel clear
please please please please please please please please please
never leave me
please please please please please please please please please
never leave me
please please never leave me (repeart as the outro)

Saturday Night in July
04:02
|
|||
|
sitting alone in my favourite tune
hoping to see you again sometime soon
it's six forty five on a saturday evening, july
wondering what I'll be doing about
the heat of the night and the girl I'm without, and
luxorious sliences night after night in july
The tv I'm watching it drenches my room
in satalite glow from a children's cartoon
maybe instead I could go catch a movie with you
seems like a lifetime has gone since I sat
down at my table to write you a song
about feeling lonely so maybe you'll tell me I'm wrong
12 o'clock on a saturday night
12 o'clock on a saturday night
12 o'clock on a saturday night
12 o'clock on a saturday night
(ooooo shut up kiss me)
(ooooo I know you miss me)
if you were here with me then you too could be
a member of my quiet night's company
just me and the hum of a fan and the tick of a clock
the lady beside me is renting a space
she smokes like a chimney and stinks up my place
so I marinate here in my smokey apartment, july
the depth of the evening, the tick of my clock
get closer to midnight with each passing thought
of what I should do with this saturday evening, july
when thoughts of your body get too much to bear
I wish you were with me, my hands in your hair
and watch as the dawn brings tomorrow alight in july
12 o'clock on a saturday night
12 o'clock on a saturday night
12 o'clock on a saturday night
12 o'clock on a saturday night
(ooooo shut up kiss me)
(ooooo I know you miss me)

Summer/Springtime/Love
03:49

let's just pretend I'm alive again
working all night takes the days away
could you come with me to
get me back my brain?
morning comes and the coffee's on
the cigarette taste gets washed away
take my weekend off
and spend it all with you
it's summer
and it's fine
my problems are way down the line
I love the sun
and the sun loves me
it's rays become my family
when I look outside I feel the feeling grow
and the the feeling it sets my soul aglow
'cause for once in my life I think it's gonna be alright
breath in the air and smell the springtime blow
warm days melt all the snow away
take a walk in the park
and watch the tree leaves bloom
cafe smells feed a caffine buzz
people working there they look so good
everyone there
is much more cool than me
it's summer
and it's fine
my problems are way down the line
I love the sun
and the sun loves me
it's rays become my family
when I look outside I feel the feeling grow
and the the feeling it sets my soul aglow
'cause for once in my life I think it's gonna be alright

For a Day
05:28

Heaven is a place, that eggs me on ahead
on a lonely trail, you live or else you die.
Thinkin' of a dream, domestic as it seems,
a simple life, a loving wife and comfort
To be in love for a day
and go to work for a day
and feel just right for a day
and have no plans for a day
I wouldn't dream of a day
'cause it wont come anyway
I live my life for today
I do just fine anyway
Tide is coming in, it's washing me away
I can fight it but it takes me if it tries.
Sunny day today, jealous as I am
it shines on me and everyone anyway
To be in love for a day
and go to work for a day
and feel just right for a day
and have no plans for a day
I wouldn't dream of a day
'cause it wont come anyway
I live my life for today
I do just fine anyway
Curtains rustle gently on my bed
wake up just in time for a beautiful day
coffee tastes just right, the sun breaks through the night
a dream, a dream it fades away.

The New Human Experiment
07:56

somewhere beyond the curtains
we could wear the feelings down
and wear them proud
and see they're allowed
somewhere there's a child and they're dressed up as a ghost
sometime around the end
of the play you call a life
the end will come
but there's time and then some
sometimes there's a man
and sometimes it's just a ghost
come see, come see the water
as it drains away from here
reflections fade, mistakes get made
be pure, as you were
as you walk with your ghost
come feel a little better
about the new and the old
the ailment fades away
but the symptoms still stay
let go of the solution
come find a resolution
