Here with Me
I didn't hear you leave, I wonder how am I still here/I don't
want to move a think, it might change my memory/ oh I am what
I am, I'll do what I want, but I can't hide/ I won't go, I won't
sleep, I can't breath, until you're resting here with me/ I
don't want to call my friends, they might wake me from this
dream/ and I can't leave this bed, risk forgetting all that's
been/ oh I am what I am, i'll do what I want, but I can't hide/
I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe, until you're resting
here with me/ I won't leave, I can't hide, I cannot be, until
you're resting here with me.
Hunter
With one light on in one room, I know you're up when I get home/
with one small step upon the stair, I know your look when I
get there/ if you were a kind up there on your throne, would
you be wise enough to let me go/ for this queen you think you
own/ wants to be a hunter again, wants to see the world alone
again/ to take a chance on life again, so let me go/ the unread
book and painful look, the tv's on, the sound is down/ one long
pause, then you begin, oh look what the cat's brought in/ if
you were a kind up there on your throne, would you be wise enough
to let me go/ for this queen you think you own/ wants to be
a hunter again, wants to see the world alone again/ to take
a chance on life again, so let me go, let me leave/ for the
crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now/ and I
don't know what to say to you but i'll smile anyhow/ and all
the time I'm thinking, thinking/ I want to be a hunter again,
want to see the world alone again/ to take a chance on life
again, so let me go
Don't
Think of Me
So you're with her, and not with me, I hope she's sweet and
so pretty/ I hear cooks delightfully, a little angel beside
you/ so you're with her, and not with me, oh how lucky one man
can be/ I hear your house is smart and clean, oh how lovely
with your homecoming queen/ oh how lovely it must be/ when you
see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me/ when she lays in
your warm arms, don't think of me/ so you're with her, and not
with me, I know she spreads sweet honey/ in fact your best friend,
I heard he spent last night with her/ Now how do you feel/ when
you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me/ when she lays
in your warm arms, don't think of me/ and it's too late and
it's too bad, don't think of me/ oh it's too late and it's too
bad, don't think of me/ does it bother you now all the mess
I made/ does it bother you now the clothes you told me not to
wear/ does it bother you now all the angry games we played/
does it bother you now when I'm not there/ when you see her
sweet smile baby, don't think of me/ when she lays in your warm
arms, don't think of me/ and it's too late and it's too bad,
don't think of me/ oh it's too late, oh it's too bad, don't
think of me
My
Lover's Gone
My lover's gone, his boots no longer by my door, he left at
dawn, and as I slept I felt him go returns not more, I will
not watch the ocean, my lover's gone, no earthly ships will
ever bring him home again, bring him home again/ my lover's
gone, I know that kiss will be my last, not more his song, the
tune upon his lips has passed I sing alone, while I watch the
ocean my lover's gone, no earthly ships will ever bring him
home again, bring him home again
All
You Want
I'd like to watch you sleep at night, to hear you breathe by
my side/ and although sleep leaves me behind, there's nowhere
i'd rather be/ and now our bed is oh so cold, my hands feel
empty, no one to hold/ I can sleep what side I want, it's not
the same with you gone/ oh if you'd come home, I'll let you
know that/ all you want, is right here in this room, all you
want/ and all you need, is sitting here with you, all you want/
it's been three years, one night apart, but in that night you
tore my heart/ if only you had slept alone, if those seeds had
not been sown/ oh you could come home and you would know that/
all you want, is right here in this room, al you want/ all you
need is sitting here with you, al you want/ I hear your key
turning in the door, I won't be hearing that sound anymore/
and you and your sin can leave the way you just came in, send
my regards to her/ I hope you've found that/ all you want, is
right there in that room, all you want/ all you need is sitting
there with you, all you want/ I'd like to watch you sleep at
night, to hear you breathe by my side
Thank
You
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all/
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all/
and even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my
wall/ it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad/ I
drank too much last night, got bills to pay, my head just feels
in pain/ I missed the bus and there'll be hell today, I'm late
for work again/ and even if i;m there, they'll all imply that
I might not last the day/ and then you call me and it's not
so bad, it's not so bad and/ I want to thank you for giving
me the best day of my life/ oh just to be with you is having
the best day of my life/ push the door, I'm home at last and
I'm soaking through and through/ then you handed me a towel
and all I see is you/ and even if my house falls down now, I
wouldn't have a clue/ because you're near me/ I want to thank
you for giving me the best day of my life/ oh just to be with
you is having the best day of my life
Honestly
OK
I just want to feel safe in my own skin, I just to be happy
again/ I just want to feel deep in my own world/ but I'm so
lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore/ on a different
day, if I was safe in my own skin, then I wouldn't feel lost
and so frightened/ but this is today and I'm lost in my own
skin/ and I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with my myself
anymore/ I just want to feel safe in my own skin, I just want
to be happy again
Slide
Even on a day like this when you're crawling on the floor/ reaching
for the phone to ring anyone who knows you anymore/ it's all
right to make mistakes, you're only human/ inside everybody's
hiding something/ staring at the same four walls, have you tried
to help yourself/ the rings around your eyes they don't hide,
that you need to get some rest/ it's all right to make mistakes
you're only human/ inside everybody's hiding something/ take
time to catch your breath and choose your moment Don't Slide
Even at a time like this when the morning seems so far/ Think
that pain belongs to you but it's happened to us all/ it's all
right to make mistakes you're only human/ inside everybody's
hiding something/ take time to catch your breath and choose
your moment/ don't slide/ You brought this on yourself/ And
it's high time you left it there/ lie here and rest your head
and dream of something else instead/ Don't slide
Isobel
I thought it was funny when you missed the train/ when I rang
you at home they said you'd left yesterday/ I thought it was
strange when you car was found/ by the tree in ennis where we
used to hang around/ Dear Isobel, I hope you're well and what
you've done is right/ oh it's been such hell, I wish you well,
I hope you're safe tonight/ it's been a long day coming and
long will it last/ when it's last day leaving, and I'm helping
it pass/ by loving you more/ and who he would become, all the
things he'd have done/ would he have loved you and not let you
down/ and would he be stronger than his father/ don't punish
yourself, leave it well alone/ dear isobel, I hope you're well
and what you've done is right/ oh it's been such hell, I wish
you well, I hope you're safe tonight/ it's been a long day coming
and long will it last/ when it's last day leaving, and I'm helping
it pass/ by loving you more
No
Angel
If you gave me just a coin for every time we say goodbye Well
I'll be rich beyond my dreams, i'm sorry for my weary life I
know I'm not perfect but I can smile And I hope you can see
this heart behind these tired eyes If you tell me that I can't,
I will, I will, I'll try all night And if I say I'm coming home,
I'll probably be out all night I know I can be afraid but I'm
alive And I hope that you trust this heart behind my tired eyes
I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try and try
I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life I'm
no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry I'm no angel,
but does that mean that I won't fly I know I'm not around each
night And I know I always think I'm right I can believe that
you might look around I'm no angel, but please don't think that
I won't try and try I'm no angel, but does that mean that I
can't live my life I'm no angel, but please don't think that
I can't cry I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly
My
life
What I choose to do is of no concern to you and your friends/
where I lay my hat may not be my home, but I will last on my
own/ 'cause it's me, and my life, it's my lie, it's my life/
oh the world has sat in the palm of my hand not that you'd see/
and I'm tired and bored of waiting for you and all those things
you never do/ 'cause it's me, and my life, it's my life, it's
my life
Take
My Hand - (Bonus Track)
Touch my skin and tell me what you're thinking, take my hand
and show me where we're going/ lie down next to me, look into
my eyes and tell me, oh tell me what you're seeing/ so sit on
top of the world and tell me how you're feeling, what you feel
now is what I feel for you/ take my hand and if I'm lying to
you, I'll
always be alone, if I'm lying to you/ see my eyes, they carry
your reflection, watch
my lips and hear the words, I'm
telling you/ give your trust to me and look into my heart and
show, show me what you're doing/ so sit on top of the world
and tell me how you're feeling, what you feel is what I feel
for you/ take my hand and if i'm lying to you, I'll
always be alone, If
I'm lying to you/ take your time, it I'm lying to you, I
know you'll find that you believe me, you believe me/ feel the
sun on your face and tell me what you're thinking/ catch the
snow on your tongue and show me how it tastes/ take my hand
and if I'm lying to you, I'll
always be alone,
If
I'm lying to you/ take your time and if I'm lying to you, I
know you'll find that you believe me, you believe me
