Dreams

Lie awake with footprints in the stars
Dream a life
A wealth of things to come
I'll try hard to get there
I'll float, not hide
I'll be there
What is it that truly breaks your heart?
In this life there is no room for halves
I'll stand up and fight you for this
I'm here, alive
I'm in this
Float out among the stars
And journey to your heart
See your mind and hear your laughing thoughts
Break the walls that seem to cross the path
I'll beat a path to this door
Don't stop
There's always something more

Echo's Revenge

Hey there, angel by the water
I've finally found you
Been looking for a lifetime
Now you're mine
I see you staring at your reflection
That's not my face
You didn't love my face
So now I'll hold you in the water
For all time in the water
Til you're mine
I see you wasting away
But I can't help you
You lost that long ago
I do love you
I love you babe, I do
But you didn't love me too
So I'll hold you in the water
For ever and a day
Hold you in the water
Til you'll stay
And I echo to you all my lost hopes
And I echo you all my lost dreams
And I echo to you your broken heart
And I echo to you we're broken
I'll hold you in the water
For all time in the water
Now you're mine

Oh little one
You spark of life
Wishing you now safely to this world
And may you be so wild and free
Like the angel you were born to be
Be free
I'll try my best to give you all that you could want
And all you'll ever need
And know that I am here for you you
No matter what it is you choose to do
Just be you
Just be you
Whether you feel joy or pain
I will hold my hand out just the same
And when you feel so full of rage
That you can't see the love that's in my eyes
That's OK
I'll love you anyway
My little one
My little one
My little one
My little one

Won't come down
03:33

Sing me my favourite song
The one that I have loved since I was young
Sing to me in my favourite voice
Your voice
It reminds me of when I was young
Sing me a different life
A life where we're happy and dancing
And we're crying, we're crying with laughter
I don't want crying without laughter
So I won't come down again
No I won't come down again
No I won't come down again
No I won't come down
I will not come down
I'll hold my ground
I'll hold my plan
And I won't come down again
No I won't come down again

The Ocean
03:05
|

|
From the beach of this great shoreline
We set our boat adrift
The tide can take us anywhere
Set sail beating hearts
We will feed upon the ocean
We will navigate by stars
And our dreams will soar with the cloud forms
They lead us home
The waves make us dance
And we sink or we swim
We drown in the fight
Or we learn to give in to the sea
And its stirrings
We are here
We awaken one morning surrounded
All thoughts of the journey gone
We set up our home
And we await the day
That we'll set sail once more
We'll set sail once more
The waves make us dance
And we sink or we swim
We drown in the fight
Or we learn to give in to the sea
And its stirrings
We are here

Simple Love Song
04:02
|

|
When we met, how we laughed together
When we met, how we cried together
The world seemed so beautiful
Cos we were together
When we met
When we dance we dance together
And when we sing, oh how we'd sing for ever
The music will flow from our fingers
And from our hearts
Cos we are together
And this is the magic that we have found
This is the magic come to ground
This is the magic that we have found
When you walk I'll walk beside you
And when I hide, oh how you'll come to find me
In the dark
Cos it's so much more fun than being apart
Being together
And this is the magic that we have found
This is the magic come to ground
This is the magic that we have found
This is the magic that we have found

Burn bright my love
Light up our path
Let us take off
In the night
We are flying
On wings of fire
Hold fast your rein
Trust you know the way
Let us journey
To the stars
We are soaring
On wings of ours
Shine light my love

Lullaby
02:50
|
|||
|
Goodnight my love
Softly to sleep
A gentle farewell
A kiss on your cheek
Let the god of sleep
Cradle your soul
And he'll rest your weary bones
Goodnight my love
A prayer for the day
Safe in your dreams
While you're away
Peace be with you always
As the stars burn bright
Peace be with you this night

Warrior
03:55

I don't want to be a warrior
Don't want to be a warrior any more
I don't want to be a soldier
Fighting in an army of God knows what for
I, I want to be peaceful
I want to be peaceful to my core
I don't want to be a warrior
Don't want to be a warrior any more
Take me away from this battle
I'm not lost to this
I, I wish I was homeward
To the place where I can rest
I'm through with all this fighting
All the fear, and the noise, and the death
When I think of my loved ones
I get pains inside my chest
Oh how I wish I was homeward
To see those that I love again
Take me away from this battle
I'm not lost to this
I don't want to be a warrior
Don't want to be a warrior any more
I don't want to be a warrior
Don't want to be a warrior any more

Hello there my old favourite
With your smile slowly fading
Dear God, what can I do?
I'll sing you a song if you'd like that
It'll only be an old Ratpack number
Some old Frank Sinatra
I'd fly away with you if I could
And if the Devil comes calling
I'll kick in his head if he tries you
I'll always keep that smile
I'll always keep that smile
I have nothing for you
All I have is presence
An old silly joke and a spoonful of food
I'm nobody's daughter
With no-one to fight for
I'm lost in the sea with no anchor to hold me
Don't go
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am
