B i o g r a p h y Sarah
Blasko first began singing in the pews of a church, flanked on one side by her
tone-deaf mother, and on the other by an eighty-year-old soprano unafraid to
flaunt her vocal chops. Perhaps it was amongst these congregations that the
influence of music seeped into her subconscious. For Sarah Blasko was conceived
the youngest missionary in the French-speaking paradise of Reunion Island,
before her parents returned home to Sydney. Blasko developed a musical interest
without really thinking about it too much. Like many children growing up in the
1980's, she would spend hours in front of the television watching the music
videos of artists like Prince, David Bowie & Eurythmics. Her mum's Olivia
Newtown-John cassette was also a prized a possession, a taste reflected now only
in her choice of karaoke numbers. In contrast, her father - an English/History
Master - introduced her to the likes of Rachmaninov, Schubert, Bach and some of
the less acclaimed works of Paul McCartney. In her High School years, Blasko hid
a love for music as one who leads a double life, carrying with her the
impression that to make music one had to know a set of rules no more alluring
than those that govern geometry. Later in her teens, she started a band with her
sister, and, as other girls were sneaking out at night to indulge in the sins of
drinking and the company of boys, they began sneaking out to revel in the
devilish sounds of live jazz and blues. One sacrilegious intervention, perhaps,
in the eyes of her former fellow parishioners, and Sarah's songbook no longer
bore just hymns. In the years that followed, Sarah and her young band found
their musical feet by writing, recording and playing live. When the members went
their separate ways, Blasko decided to continue as a solo artist and,
eventually, set to work on her first EP, "Prelusive" - a six-track treasure of
beats, guitars and vocals all homespun on a yarn that overlooked a suburban
primary school. It was enough to get her signed to fresh-faced record label Dew
Process, who envisaged big things for Sarah, the first step of which would be
her debut album. But Sarah was miles ahead. She'd already left behind the quaint
charm of the bedside sampler and was busy working on a whole new sound. Her next
set of home recordings would form the basis of her debut album, "The Overture &
the Underscore", but she would venture far from home to fully realise them. |
The overture
and the underscore
All coming
back
Hopeful tonight you've found a disguise
You and I never lasted a goodbye
Light seems to fade, clings to mistakes
We remark on the way that things have changed
It's all coming back to me
All clothed in black
Images of you and me
Light up the skies, argue the night
To reveal one thing I did was right
Patterns are laid, fortunes are made
We remark on the way that things remain
It's all coming back to me
All clothed in black
Images of you and me
You're loosing sleep tonight
How could you want this so badly
What once was clothed in white
Bears the bruise of a burden
Beautiful
secrets
Beautiful secrets you guard them in your secret garden
You water and nurture them until they're bigger than life itself
But you can't always know what they will uncover on the news
And you can't be too sure that your secret life won’t show through
Beautiful speeches the lines that are preached here are only half-truth
Delicious like murder, one step and you're further than you could admit
But you can't always know what they will uncover on the news
And you can't be too sure that your secret life won’t show through
Always
worth it
Half forgotten things
In the depths of time they lie
With significance
Waiting for the simplest sign of life
See the evidence
That expense is part of life in time
Always worth it if only to realise
Not always perfect but somehow deserving of time
Disconnected things
You exist within a kind of truth
And the consequence
Is a consummated trial of fire
Always worth it if only to realise
Not always perfect but somehow deserving of time
You've no way out
No path in
Set on paper
Half in stone
You're on your own
Always worth it if only to realise
Not always perfect but somehow deserving of time
At your
best
It's you against the world, I don't think so
They wouldn't stand a chance now girl
And even when your back's on the ropes
I can tell, you'll get them by the final bell
If only you were at your best
Instead of fighting yourself as well
If only you were at your best
Instead of fighting yourself
You're high above the world, I don't think so
If you're hanging around me girl
And even when you try to call
I know you stall; you climb another storey tall
If only you were at your best
Instead of fighting yourself as well
If only you were at your best
Instead of fighting yourself
Don't let your mind change you this time
Don't let the tide turn you tonight
If only you were at your best
Instead of fighting yourself as well
If only you were at your best
Instead of fighting yourself
Don't u
eva
You've got a way with words
You've got a way that makes me feel so complicated
Your message meets the floor
The horizon meets your horse and you're deliberating
I'm only clearing my throat
Don't you ever wish for
Just one thing that you might never see
Don't you ever wish for
Just one thing that you might never know
You might never know
You've got a way with words
You've got a way that makes me feel so complicated
A wall keeps you from me
You'd raze the doors down
Just so you could find the key
The wolves are waiting
Don't you ever wish for
Just one thing that you might never see
Don't you ever wish for
Just one thing that you might never know
You might never know
I'm underground as the world's just spinning around
And you hunt them down try to pin them to the ground
There'll be no sound as the words just tumble out
And you won't be found by the time you've hit the ground
You've got a way with words
You've got a way with words
You've got a way with words...
Don't you ever wish for
Just one thing that you might never see
Don't you ever wish for
Just one thing that you might never know
You might never know...
Counting
sheep
If it's all the same to you, I’ve decided that I’m lacking proof
A basic thread of unbelief could unravel your attempt at truth
You could blame it on her, you could pin it on him - that'd be a lie
'Cause there's no subtle dispute or selfless pursuit
Those thing are marked by what they hide
No surprise that you've found yourself in too deep
Blame your chequered past for your lack of sleep
But make sure you count your blessings while
You're counting, while you're counting sheep.
If nothing more remains for you, it's decided that you leave confused
A simple case of hit or miss, you're offered something more than you can give
Oh you could blame it on her, you could pin it on him - but you don't want a
fight
'Cause there's no subtle dispute or selfless pursuit
Those things are marked by what they hide
No surprise that you've found yourself in too deep
Blame your chequered past for your lack of sleep
But make sure you count your blessings while
You're counting, while you're counting sheep.
Asleep in your uncertain future no one else
Can tell you what you came here for or read your thoughts
If confidence is open-ended there's no guarantee you'll be protected now; when
There's no safety house you can't just stay and rest here in my regard for you
It's no surprise that you've found yourself in too deep
Blame your chequered past for your lack of sleep
But make sure you count your blessings while
You're counting, while you're counting sheep.
Perfect
now
Everything is perfect now
I don't want to make a movement
I'm too scared to breathe
I might do something wrong
As you're sleeping silently
Perfect beauty laid before me
I feel every second is a lifetime long
It's a place I’ve been before
A place some say I should go more
But every journey just leads me too far away
When I just wanted to stay
I just wanted to stay
So that's why I won't wake you where you lie
If I could now I’d freeze time
I can't find forever in your eyes
I should leave you while they're dry
Living underneath this guilt
I can't leave a house that I’ve built
Though I feel it sinking further every time
And the weight of my mistakes
Means that everything I touch breaks
I don't want to see you as the next in line
So that's why I won't wake you where you lie
If I could now I’d freeze time
I can't find forever in your eyes
I should leave you while they're dry
Sweet
november
I thought about it tonight, I’m lucky to be alive
I never thought these city lights would ever shine so bright
Floating on the surface, threatened to be dragged down
I thought I was lost forever, it turns out I'm alright
Sweetest november, winter wasn't here forever
Time to rest your weary head in the sun
The sweetest november, the world's renewed its colour
Only just in time to welcome the summer
I thought about you tonight, I’m glad that you're alive
And even in these uncertain times, you'll make it through the night
You were floating on the surface, threatened to be dragged down
I thought you were gone forever, it turns out you've been found
Sweetest november, winter wasn't here forever
Time to rest your weary head in the sun
The sweetest november, the world's renewed its colour
Only just in time to welcome the summer
Captured in this light beauty will survive
And purified by fire you've made it to the sea
Sweetest november, winter wasn't here forever
Time to rest your weary head in the sun
The sweetest november, the world's renewed its splendour
Only just in time to welcome the summer
Sweetest november, sweetest november
Cinders
Slow falling whispers on pricked up ears
Slow burning cinders, three long years between
When we lit them in so much haste
High hazard seasons, houses laid to waste
Did you forget it all
Do you listen when I call
These fire trails lead north
And slowly back in time
Slowly back in time
Slowly back in time
Time has it's reasons for letting go
Comes as it pleases. This new growth beneath
Where the branches are cracked and bowed
Cover the feelings these old scars still show
Did you forget it all
Do you listen when I call
These fire trails lead north
And slowly back in time
Slowly back in time
If only I could have escaped
Without turning back to take
Things that I could have replaced
You just can't return to these days
Did you forget it all
Do you listen when I call
These fire trails lead north
And slowly back in time
Slowly back in time
Slowly back in time
True
intentions
Between love we make
Divide, navigate
Confusion translates
What you can't explain
Though lines are not the face
Are your eyes not ashamed
Of past now to drink
If tired and wandering
In circles that spin
Down spiralled towards sin
It's all very clear
This time I will travel all alone
Don't let me in I’ll shut you out
Take control of the wheel and now
It'll lead me on to a sense of my true intentions
My true intentions
No time to forsake
To turn and run away
‘Cause these answers you bring
Are symptoms of things
You try to forget
But your mind is betrayed
Don't let me in I’ll shut you out
Take control of the wheel and now
It'll lead me on to a sense of my true intentions
My true intentions
Have a listen
Do you hear them
Have a listen, have a listen, to my, oh to my
True intentions, oh to my true intentions
Remorse
There is a wailing girl at your feet
Tears overflowing burnt like the rest
Don't waste your time, she's a weapon tonight
With no direction, bound to start a fight
Her love is only wasted on remorse
True or two-timing faker
Her only choice
There's a relation, but they are not the same
She is fire, him embers, one cannot put the other out
New worn or discarded, are we all not the same
Funny how it happened, now there’s no where to put the blame
Their love is only wasted on remorse
True or two-timing fakers
Their only choice
Their love is only wasted on remorse
True for two diamond fakers
There's only choice
Speeches to learn
Secrets to burn
Fate is a debt
Silence is overspent
Their love is only wasted on remorse
True for two diamond fakers
There's only choice
Their love is only wasted on remorse
True for two diamond fakers
There's only choice
Long time
You like an army
Occupy my mind
The quietness of time
And I wish I could ignore you
And the impression that you made in my life
‘Cause it's been a long time
A long time coming around
And whether its the right time
Or the wrong time, the time is now
But you say it's important
Oh to focus on yourself
And no one else
But if this makes me happy
Oh I ask you then do I have a choice
‘Cause it's been a long time
A long time coming around
And whether it’s the right time
Or the wrong time, the time is now
And you say who's gonna bring me water now, you say who
And you say who's gonna bring me water now
Oh you will work it out, somehow
‘Cause it's been a long time
A long time coming around
And whether its the right time
Or the wrong time, the time is now
‘Cause maybe the right time
Has just come around

What the sea wants, the sea will have
For you
I’ve learnt a lot about you
In turn much about me too
I travelled across the sea
I wept for you
Emotions run deep
Between us friend
The time will come
For us again
We’re tired, we’re tired now
This ship almost ran a ground
We’ll lie and rest now
I’ll dream of you
Emotions run deep
Between good friends
But I do believe
In us again
I’ve heard, I’ve heard it said
That love, real love has no end
A cup overflowing now
I will believe, I must believe
The
garden's end
Oh I can hear you breathing
You’re picking up my scent
You’re trying to hunt me down
In the hope that I’ll give in
But I know these tracks
Better than I know you ever could
You’re breathing down my neck
But it will only make me win
Nobody wanted this
Not after all these years
Still the darkness draws us deeper
In just like a trap
But now I’ve got you here
I’ll never lead you back
For the garden’s end
Is where wilderness begins
You dug a hole for me
That I’ll bury you in
And if you raise the dead now
I might lead you back
And if you cut your hair
I might leave a map
Nobody wanted this
Not after all these years
Nobody noticed you
But now they’re on to you
You say you’ll have the last laugh
But the winters coming
And the snow will cover tracks
And I’ll be watching
Because I’m hunting you
And nobody’s buying it
Not after all these years
But somebody’s noticed you
And now I’m on to you
[explain]
Oh. There’s a funny light, in the stars tonight
You and I were right
All the factories, all the memories have changed
Will you work it out
Will you see that I’m going no where else
I don’t know where you think you’ll start again
But I, I know in all we’ve said, I finally
Know how it began
It’s nothing I can even explain
Do we begin tonight
Is it a righteous fight
The sentiments not right
Will you work it out
Will you sell it all
To find me
All the weapons are finally coming out
Now you see that I only wanted to have it out with you
Remember our love
Warm in the coldest light you see
You see what you want
And you break it off
Find it somewhere else
You say that our love
Can’t be a pattern in your palm
You say that our love
You say that our love
Is only mapped
Oh look above you now
There’s a heavy cloud, hanging over us
All the factories, all infirmaries, are closed
Do you wake at night
Wishing you’d relied on someone else
I don’t know what you think you’ll find again
Well i, I know in all we’ve said
I’ve finally found where I’ll begin
It’s something I can’t even explain
The
albatross
Fear lies beside me
A vessel, an army
That threatens the night
The wind is whispering
Howling and hissing
“be unafraid”
Tragic this moment of kindness
Touches my eyes in their blindness
Come lie beside me
Say I won’t be lonely
As we kiss goodnight
For two ships are sailing
The wind is wailing
“An ocean awaits”
Captured this moment inspires us
To unlock the latches that bind us
And we will leave behind these fallen tears
For two will sail tonight
And here in this humble ship
I will make my home
Planet new
year
Do you want another try
Rewrite some lines
Do you want to spend some time
If your hands are open like mine
Underneath a setting sun
Your hands are open like a child’s like mine
Feeling like the first to have wasted all gods time
Waking with the birds, they’re falling from the sky
Do you think that I’d forget about you and I
Well I know that I was shy
But the time has hardly been unkind
Underneath this gentle light
And by the time that midnight strikes this time
Feeling like the first to have wasted all gods time
Waking with the birds, they’re falling from the sky
So under-rehearsed, we never even tried
It’s a delightful curse to have wasted so much time
Amazing
things
Fallen like a soldier, tragically you are at war
You think you’re not caught within a fragment of yourself
Do you think you’re something you are not
You look like a lover
You feel like a nervous wreck
It cuts in the night
It hurts like an oversight
You long to feel the most amazing things
But you’ve come undone ‘cause you have held it in
Your eyes have seen the most amazing things
Falling like a rock into an ocean
There is something you forgot
Only you decided that you had to go and fight until you lost
You look like a fighter
You couldn’t recognise yourself
Now you’re cursing the night
You’re watching the seconds die
You long to feel the most amazing things
But you’ve come undone ‘cause you have held it in
And your eyes have seen the most amazing things
And this love you fear is such a precious thing
Always on
this line
As the day turns to night
Under these suburban skies
Think of all willing lies, of cutting ties
The emptiness
At first light, first sight
The world seems like a miracle
But try to hold it in your hands
And watch it get away
Oh the ugliness of fate
When you're always on this line
When you're always on this line
You could've crossed a million times
But you're always on this line
Oh, put your hands up
Claim your crime
'Cause you never had the time
You still get to work just fine
When you're always on this line
But it's alright, it's okay
When there's excuses in your way
You can try, just make it up
Settle down but don't look up
At first bite, first lie
The world seems like it serves you well
But try to catch it in your hands
Treating it like a slave of the emptiness you crave
When you're always on this line
When you're always on this line
You could've crossed a million times
But you're always on this line
Oh, put your hands up
Claim your crime
'Cause you never had the time
You still get to work just fine
When you're always on this line
Oh, it might be unkind of me to make you feel bad
It might be a shame of me to treat you like that
When there's everything you've worked for in your life
On this line
When you're always on this line
When you're always on this line
You could've crossed a million times
But you're always on this line
Oh, put your hands up
Claim your crime
'Cause you never had the time
You still get to work just fine
When you're always on this line
The woman
by the well
Lately I find that you know me
Better than I know myself
Like a woman who's lost herself
By the water's edge
Her reflection was taken by the tide
I just want you around
I want you around
Seconds and hours pass slowly
I move them all by myself
I can feel that I’m aging
My hair is turning black
There's a rhythm behind it
That you can't know
Still, I want you around
'Cause I’m more lost than found
Shine a light on my misery
Wake the child from her sleep
Wipe the eyes of the dewy morning
The waters so deep
Hammer
There's a hole in the roof
And the dust that's pouring through
Means you want to build the world again from scratch
'Cause nothing moved means nothing found
But there's a sadness in the sound
As the walls crack and the scenes change so fast
If you had a hammer you would knock the whole thing down
But tell me how you'll build again
With what is left of all you've spent
Beware the time in your life
When you feel you have to be right
And you know your words no longer mean enough
There's not a whisper to be found
As you're marching to sound
Of the wheels turn, and the walls tumble down
If you had a hammer you would knock the whole thing down
But tell me, will you build again
When all is lost, and all is spent
Knock things down to start again
So you tear it up to find escape
You'd do anything just to bring this down
Call it a sinking ship
You set the sun
You want a way out
You're begging for it
There's no chance of your escape
You'd buy your way out
Sell everything
But there's nothing left of all we've built
If you had a hammer you would knock the whole thing down,
But tell me, how you'll build when all is lost and all is spent
Oh, if you had a dollar you would hide yourself away
But in your silence find some sense that there is no one else to blame
I found you out
You set the sun
Fall in fire
I found you out
You set the sun
There's no way out
I found you out
And inside the sun
I found you out
Queen of
apology
Truth, truth everywhere
But not a drop to drink
You can think what you like
But it's not like what you think
Talk, talk everywhere
Banished you can tell
A thousand ears to turn away
Not one mouth to stay closed
Bride for the king of blame
I'm queen of apology
You see we take all care
But no responsibility
Return this where you found it
Eyes, eyes everywhere
And two more that now hold
The pallor of your face
When all your palest lies are told
Hands, hands tethered fast
To bonds you'd wish they'd hold
To forgive completely only serves to let them go
Bride for the king of blame
I'm queen of apology
You see we take all care
But no responsibility
Return this where you found it
A bed we built
Milk crates and guilt
Well I will lay you down
On sheets of blame
I'll lay you down with me again
Truth, truth
Hand it down
And we'll swallow it whole
To avoid the taste
But what's inside
We'll never know
Bride for the king of blame
I'm queen of apology
You see we take all care
But no responsibility
Return me where you found me.
Showstopper
Find me, oh find me
When this birthright was blackened
When lightning struck
And the storm clouds came over
The cracks were appearing
Before things turned
In a moment, I’d forgotten
I feel the trial, it's mine
I burn in this ire
All this pride, bid goodbye
Only matchwood
Still so unsure why this path was chosen
It's harder and further
Than first calculations
When you know it's not over yet
I feel the trial, it's mine
I burn in this ire
All this pride, bid goodbye
Only matchwood
Oh, it's a trial and a fight
Hear me cry: "it's yours and it's mine!"
"oh this fight!"
"it's yours,"
"it's mine"
"yours and mine, yours and mine!"
Find me
Oh find this birthright
It's cursed
Oh the lightning struck
And the storm hit its target
I could
never belong to you
Love is something of an art
When we are led by such divided hearts
Painted black, their centre red
Beating now
They're loaded with regret
Full of memories that you can't neglect
Of all the things that you've yet to prove
Oh the times I’ve thought this whole thing through
Lived whole lifetimes in disguise from you
How can I hold to a pale idea
When you've given everything you can
And by everything you feel, you stand
But I could never belong to you
For all the troubles of an onward path
The confusion lacks a tragic punch
When we take the desired turns
All we have is all we can find
No-one else can make this mine
I could never belong to you
Pictures in the family ark
Faces faded, stories gone
One sure light from eras dark
Two by two they all marched on
But I could never belong to you

Down on love
Lately you've been down on luck
Crying out for the man above
I believe in miracles
But a miracle you can't control
You've got to find the strength inside
To lead you out of here
One step guides another
'Till the way becomes clear
Lately you've been down on love
You believe that it's a poison cup
Lover takes a leap of faith
And faith will guide you all your days
And all your life you've waited
For someone to understand
To wake you up and speak your name
And take you by the hand
How'd you lose your faith in love
What brought you to your knees tonight
I believe in answered prayers
But the answers are found everywhere
So open up your windows
And unlock the doors
You hear them whispered in the night
Down cold and lonely halls
All I want
I don't want another lover
So don't keep holding out your hands
There's no room beside me
I'm not looking for romance
Say I’ll be here, I’ll be here
But there's no way you'd understand
All I want
All I want
All I want
When I don't even know myself
I don't want another partner
So don't try and break the spell
I can't even understand me
So don't think that you can help
When I say things and see things
That's no way on earth to tell
What I want
What I want
What I want
'Cause I don't even know myself
No one wants to be lonely
But what am I to do
I'm just trying to be honest
I don't want to hurt you too
When I’ll be there, I’ll be there
I know I sound confused
But all I want
All I want
All I want
All I want
All I want
See all I want
All I want
Is to one day come to know myself
*** Thanx a lot to Naylor
for this one ***
Bird on a
wire
Hurt like a bird on a wire
You got cursed
You got burned something that
No one deserves
It's broken your wings
You forgot how to sing
All the trouble it bring
Trouble that it brings
For the first time in your life you're coming home
You can feel the strength returning to you're bones
Caught in a trap of desire
You got lost
You got shot with a bow and arrow
To the heart
You're flashing you life
Like a battered wife
Got some wood and a knife
Wood and a knife
For the first time in your life you made a home
You work your fingers right down to the bone
Hold on my
heart
All of these nights are long
Hand on my heart you're strong
Got a feeling that you'll survive
These lost and these lonesome times
You can't please somebody
Can't please somebody else
Until you learn to look after yourself
You can't be somebody
Can't be somebody else
You've learned your lesson, put in on the shelf
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Find your stronger parts
Hold on my heart
Thinking of him each day
When he is miles away
You know it wont serve you well
It's better for time to tell
You can't please somebody
Can't please somebody else
Until you learn to look after yourself
You can't be somebody
Can't be somebody else
You've learned your lesson, put in on the shelf
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Find your stronger parts
Hold on my heart
Though your growing up was hard
Now you're not so easily crushed
Still innocent and strange
All your strength still remains
You can't please somebody
Can't please somebody else
Until you learn to look after yourself
You can't be somebody
Can't be somebody else
You've learned your lesson, put in on the shelf
And hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Find your stronger parts
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Be the light in the dark
Set yourself apart
And hold on my...
Hold on my heart
We won't
run
Pages turning
Lights are burning
See what you could not see
It's plain as the day
The night makes you pay
For what was hidden underneath
Longing to leave
But begging to feel that
Something will make you stay
Gotta believe that this all leads
Somewhere we've never been
We won't run
We can fight
All that keeps us up at night
There is far to go now
Let's not waste a minute more
In denies
I always thought you knew yourself
Better than anyone
The season was lost
And you started listening
To everyone else
But cast in as devil
I've got the metal
The means to make things right
Tired of the guilt
Tired of being sorry
Well haven't we suffered enough
We won't run
We can fight
All that keeps us up at night
There is far to go now
Let's not waste a minute more
We won't run
We can fight
All that keeps us up at night
There is far to go now
Let's not waste a minute more
But oh that our eyes will be open
Oh that our eyes will be open
Oh that our eyes will be open
Oh that our eyes will be open
We won't run
We can fight
All that keeps us up at night
There is far to go now
Let's not waste a minute more
We won't fear
We can fight
All that we can bring to light
There is far to go now
Let's not waste a minute more
'Cause we won't run
We can fight
All that keeps us up at night
There is far to go now
Let's not waste a minute more
Of our lives
Our lives
Our lives
Of our lives
Our lives
Our lives
Is my baby
yours
Search through the days
And live through the nights
I wonder what I’ve done wrong
To end up this way
I've tried so hard
It's never enough
You cant make somebody love you
While they're still missing someone
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
It's there as a ghost
He keeps in his heart
A face that you can't forget
It haunts him in the dark
How cruel, how unkind
This unwakened love
When her is a love that I had
Thought to call my own
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Is my baby yours
Baby yours
But I shoulda known I shoulda known better
Fall in love you still loved another
Shoulda known I shoulda known better
Fall in love you still loved another
Shoulda known I shoulda known better
Fall in love you still loved another
Shoulda known I shoulda known better
Fall in love you still loved another
Another
Another
Sleeper
awake
Some of us
Don't know why
We were born
Into this world
Sometimes
Can't sleep at night
Worrying about the world
Fearing it as it turns
Use your hands
You know that
They
Are worthy
Use your hands
You know you love
To get
Them dirty
You've been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Nearly dead
Secrets are lies
Lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake
Some of us
Don't know that
We were born
And sold a lie
Sometimes
Can't speak we try
But our voice
Cannot be heard
Use your hands
Don't be afraid of
Standing up
For something
Use your hands
I know you love
To get
Them dirty
You've been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Nearly dead
Secrets are lies
You're lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake
You've been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Living dead
Secrets are lies
You're lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake
You've been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Living dead
Secrets are lies
You're lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake
No turning
back
I was involved
Willing or not
Born in the spark of an eye
A city on fire
Is out of control
I put it down to the match
In my hand
Or my heart
Struck out once again
Against my will
My own right mind
Knocked down in the sand
But there's no turning back
There's no turning back
Stop those tears in their tracks
'Cause there's no turning back
So come and you will
To sit on your hands
Did you only want me to laugh
To sit for a while
A talk and a drink
I followed much to well
I carried on
I broke the ice
It melted once or twice
I put my heart
Right on the line
Now it's time, my love, it's time
For there's no turning back
There's no turning back
So stop those tears in their tracks
'Cause there's no turning back
And then I’m in your arms I’ll try to relax
Don't want to lie awake all night wondering where we're at
Oh this tossing and turning won't clear these blues away
When I am longing just to hear you say
There's no turning back
There's no turning back
So stop those tears in their tracks
'Cause there's no turning back
There's no turning back
There's no turning back
So put your heart in my hands
'Cause there's no turning back
Oh there's no turning back
Oh there's no turning back
I said there's no turning back
Lost and
defeated
I'm finally mad
Like a rush of blood to
My weary head
No longer sad
The emotional tide has turned
And I see red
Heard you clap your hands
Cause i'm joyfully and most bitter mad
I hope your heart is glad
Oh sweet relief that you've
Always longed
To have
Cause that's what you wanted
That's what you wanted
All along
That's what you wanted
That's what you wanted
All along
And though you wish I had
Not fallen in love with you so fast
But don't make it bad
Don't turn it into something
That I regret
Cause that's what you wanted
That's what you wanted
All along
It's just what you wanted
It's just what you wanted
All along
All along
All along
All along
All…
It's just what you needed
It's just what you needed
All along
To feel lost and defeated
Lost and defeated
It's just what you needed
It's just what you needed
To feel lost and defeated
Lost and defeated
Until you finally say goodbye
Over and
over
Keeping in time
Don't matter as much
As the feeling
So break the rules
It'll all make sense
If you mean it
Shout it out loud
Travel north
And south
Just to prove it
Speak it with your voice
You don't really
Have a choice
But to use it
Say it over and over
And over again
Say it over and over
So not to forget
'Til you understand
Words they don't
Mean much without
Some action
And they just don't
Hold up
Without compassion
Shout it out loud
Travel north
And south
Just to claim it
Say it with your voice
You don't really
Have a choice
But to use it
Say it over and over
And over again
Say it over and over
So not to forget
'Til you understand
Say it over and over
(oh keep telling me)
And over again
(tell me honestly)
Say it over and over
(oh keep telling me)
So not to forget
(tell me honestly)
Say it over and over
(oh keep telling me)
And over again
(tell me honestly)
Say it over and over
(oh keep telling me)
So not to forget
(tell me honestly) understand
It's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's alright
Baby it's alright
They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you
And it's alright
Baby it's alright
I never
knew
It's not enough
It's not enough for both of us
This love I feel
Won't reach into your heart
Though it hurts inside
To find my pride so altered
I let you go to find your way alone
I never knew it would hurt like this
To let someone go against my wishes
All I can do is hope and pray
That you'll find your way
It's not enough
Its not enough for now
When I open up
It leaves me in the cold
Though it hurts inside
I'll summon all my pride
To let you go
Let you be alone
I never knew it would hurt like this
To let someone go against my wishes
All I can do is hope and pray
That you'll find your way
I never knew it would hurt like this
To let someone go against my wishes
All I can do is hope and pray
That you'll find your way
I never knew it would hurt like this
To let someone go against my wishes
All I can do is hope and pray
That you'll find your way
Night and day
Words in to space
Into unfair terrain
They are gone now exited my mouth
Words find you cold
Actions are too bold
How can we bridge this divide
We're like night and day
Like night and day
A bitter night and a broken day
You'll never change
Always the same
While I move quicker than the tides
But yours is a face
My mind won't erase
And I know I can't say goodbye
We're like night and day
Like night and day
I love the nights you seek the day
They're just nights and days
That we while away
They're just nights and days
Just nights and day
Oh how can we grow old together
Oh how can we grow old together
We're like night and day
Like night and day
We're like night and day
We we're born this way
We're like night and day
Like night and day
Such a lovely night and a beautiful day

Bring Me Back
Sarah Blasko :
Bring me back to where I've been
If you sing that song, it'll take me there
Right back where it all began
But please do hold my trembling hands
Mother I do miss her so
Oh I wish I was a little girl
Still a spark in my father's eyes
But I feel a loss without her smile
Send me out into the world
I am going there to break a spell
Mother I do have her hands
I will use them well, I promise that
Knowing well what I do now
I will overcome what holds me down
Light All
My Lights
Sarah Blasko :
I long for a spark, for a light
A dawn for my long, sleepless nights
And you keep them high on me tonight
And we'll be a light all of our lives
Oh, won't you come
Won't you light all my lights
Oh, won't you come
Won't you fight all my fights
Fight all my fights
So long
And we'll all be so strong
We'll all be so strong
Oh, in the dark we could hide
But we're human
We're human, so we fight
And we can be higher than our hearts
And I'll be a fighter by your side
Oh, won't you come
Won't you light all my lights
Oh, won't you come
Won't you fight all my fights
Fight all my fights
So long
And we'll all be so strong
We'll all be so strong
Oh, won't you come
Won't you light all my lights
Oh, won't you come
Won't you fight all my fights
Fight all my fights
Fight all my fights
Fight all my fights
So long
And we'll all be so strong
We'll all be so strong
We'll all be so strong
We'll all be so strong
Even
Though I'm A Woman
Holly Throsby :
Oh oh I
I've got a secret
I think I'm in love with missing you
More than I'm in love with you
That's why I go away all the time
That's why I travel the world and roam free
This time you're leaving me
Oh this is how I feel
I feel like a travelling salesman
Even though I am a woman
Picking up my bags from the station
Standing there face to face
I'd be lying if I did not say
I love you more when I'm missing you
It's why I am always away
Believe me it's true
Oh oh I
I've got a secret
I think I was born to be in a state of longing
Born to be wanting, wanting
I put it in a letter for you
I love the danger in distance
This time I'm leaving you
Oh this is how I feel
I feel like a travelling salesman
Even though I am a woman
Picking up my bags from the station
Standing there face to face
I'd be lying if I did not say
I love you more when I'm missing you
It's why I am always away
Believe me it's true
Believe me it's true
Believe me it's true
I love the danger in distance
I'd rather be missing you
I love the danger in distance
I'd rather be missing you
I feel like a travelling salesman
Even though I am a woman
Picking up my bags from the station
Standing there face to face
I'd be lying if I did not say
I love you more when I'm missing you
It's why I am always away
Believe me it's true
Believe me it's true
Believe me it's true
Believe me it's true
Believe me it's true
Bridges
Burned
Sarah Blasko :
I'm waiting for something
I don't know what it is
I'm putting my boots on
I'm getting ready
The style and the substance
Is in a photograph
I pin it to my heart as a reminder
I've done my time
Paid for my crimes
Some bridges just burn
The world still turns for us
I'm waiting for something
I don't know where it lies
The shadow behind me
Won't hold me back this time
I take a step forward
For every word was said
And hope that it leads me
To better circumstance
I've done my time
Paid for my crimes
Some bridges just burn
The world still turns
'Cause I went the long way but now
I'm coming home
I went the wrong way
But I'm coming back stronger than before
Some bridges just burn
The world still turns
On My Own
Sally Seltmann :
I should be lost without you now
But it's easy on my own
So don't be waiting at your door
For me to come around
I've seen the sights, I've heard the sounds
I knew them as a child
I'm trusting what I knew then now
I'm looking for something
That's been buried underground
For years
And it's so old
That even I don't know if I will recognise it
Anymore, on my own
I should be calling out your name
But I've been that ball and chain
I've set my sights on something new
I can see it closer now
I'm breaking up, I'm wandering far
Take me away from you
There's so much that I've got to do
I'm looking for something
That's been buried underground
For years
And it's so old
That even I don't know if I will recognise it
Anymore, on my own
On my own
I'm looking for something
That's been buried underground
For years
And it's so old
That even I don't know if I will recognise it
Anymore
I'm searching, I'm waiting, I need time to find out
On my own, on my own, on my own
Rely On Me
Sarah Blasko :
And you know
You always can rely on, 'ly on
What you know of me
You can rely on, 'ly on
When you're gone
I always leave a light on, light on
When you're gone from me
Light on, light on
You know you can rely on
You know you can rely on, 'ly
You know you can rely on me
You can rely on, 'ly, 'y
And you know
You always have been right on, right on
All you long to be is right on, right on
When you're gone
I always leave a light on, light on
When you're gone from me
Light on, light on
You know you can rely on
You know you can rely on, 'ly
You know you can rely on me
You can rely on, 'ly, 'y
To know you
You know I only want to
To know you
You know I only want to...
You know you can rely on
You know you can rely on, 'ly
You know you can rely on me
You know you can rely on
You know you can rely on, 'ly
You know you can rely on me
You can rely on, 'ly...
Theme I
Here we go
One, Two, One, Two, Three
Sarah Blasko :
We exit this world alone
As fragile as we're born
A life just like a moment in time
Too vulnerable you chose to hide
It broke your heart to lose someone
As desperate as a loaded gun
You thought that you would learn to survive
To make your way alone in this life
I just want you to know
Wherever you go
It follows like a ghost
The burden's not just your own
If you're a seeker lover keeper
I've waited for this moment to arrive
When you let go to survive
Give it up and take it on
To open up and love someone
Scratch it off reveal new skin
Casting off what you held in
Life is just a moment in time
Too short to run and hide
I just want you to know
Wherever you go
It follows like a ghost
The burden's not just your own
If you're a seeker lover keeper
Seeker lover keeper
Seeker lover keeper
Seeker lover keeper
'Cause I just want you to know
Wherever you go
It follows like a ghost
The burden's not just your own
I just want you to know
How near or far you go
You'll never be alone
Your heart it has a home
If you're a seeker, a lover and a keeper
Every Time
Sally Seltmann :
You used to live so close to me
I could die
Call me up and bring me back to life
Friends far but never gone
I forgot to say that it's been too long, oh
Late nights and too much time
On my hands I lied
Awake with your song in my head
Give up but never lose out
'Cause I've got you by my side
This is how it should be
This is how it should be
This is how it should
Be, this is how
Every time, every time
I feel you're gone
I get your song in my head
It's my favourite one
Yeah every time, every time
I feel you're gone
I get your song in my head
It's my favourite one
Eyes shut I lay down still next to the speaker
I think about the times we've been together
Friend far but never gone
I forgot to say that it's been too long
This is how it should be
This is how it should be
This is how it should
Be, this is how
Every time, every time
I feel you're gone
I get your song in my head
It's my favourite one
Yeah every time, every time
I feel you're gone
I get your song in my head
It's my favourite one
The one you wrote
When you were away
My favourite song
Reminds me of
You, oh oh oh
This is how it should be
This is how it should be
This is how it should
Be, this is how
Every time, every time
I feel you're gone
I get your song in my head
It's my favourite one
Yeah every time, every time
I feel you're gone
I get your song in my head
It's my favourite one
The one you wrote
My favourite song
Reminds me of you
We Will
Know What It Is
Holly Throsby :
Two round little stones on the roof with us
We throw 'em off, perfectly in love
To the old ground below
And I say it's so, 'cause I say it's so
And oh, then we loosen up
We all loosen up with the setting sun
Aglow in our heart of hearts
Which shall beat for us, the club and club
You know what I'm thinking of
And I thought a lot, about the thoughts I've got
As the old wind blows
And we will know what it is
And we will know what it is
I no longer look in the branches of
A dozen fallen logs
For an answer, love
To my old aching heart
And my aching thoughts of a lover gone
And oh, then we loosen up and start saying stuff
We are saying stuff
Alone, in our common lots
Of "I want, I want, but I don't know what"
And won't till my soul dissolves
When my soul dissolves, like a setting sun
Or a falling stone
And we will know what it is
And we will know what it is
I want, I want, but I don't know what
And won't
I want, I want, but I don't know what
And won't
And we will know what it is
And we will know what it is...
If The
Night Is Dark
Sally Seltmann :
Cannot stick to one theme
Cannot stick to one plan
Cannot stick to one man
Always changing my mind
Always searching to find
Something I'll understand
Yeah, I'll travel the seas
I'll get down on my knees
I'll live passionately
I have the world in my hands
Will I break, will I stand strong
Am I gonna see what's out there for me
I might be right
I might be wrong
But I have no regrets
To lean upon
If the night is dark
Then this is my sun
This is my home
This is where I belong
This is where I belong
Well I'm trying to decide
Should I run, should I hide
Show them tricks and be tamed
Yeah, it's true that I've changed
But I'm also the same
I'm just playing the game
If you lay down beside me
You'll feel that I'm cold
And I'm empty, it's true
See the more I reveal
The more lonely I feel
What was one is now broken
Broken in two
I might be right
I might be wrong
But I have no regrets
To lean upon
If the night is dark
Then this is my sun
This is my home
This is where I belong
This is where I belong
This is where I belong
Going To
Sleep
Holly Throsby :
I do believe
That I am going
To sleep
So don't make a din
'Cause I'll be dreaming
That a wind welled up and took my eye out
And the storm took the roof with it
I do believe
That I want you
Around
We make our sounds
We make them out loud
But from a window sill I could be lost to you
From a branch you could be lost to me
Staring at the ceiling
And how
Trying to keep my feet on the ground
I do believe
That I'm dreaming aloud
When you're around
When we're about town
But from a window sill I could be lost to you
From a branch you could be lost to me
Rest Your
Head On My Shoulder
Sarah Blasko :
Rest your head on my shoulder
And I'll take care of your worries
It was you who promised this to me
It was you who offered me courage
In my darkest hour you can hear me
Softly question my travels
When doubt becomes me I'm troubled
And all my fears unravel
So simple when I was younger
But now I question my worth
Though my heart beats strong
There is doubt in my blood, in my bones
Like a song never sung
Like a night without morning
A promise undone
Rest your head on my shoulder
And I'll take care of your worries
It was you who promised this to me
It was you who offered me courage
In my darkest hour you can hear me
Softly question my travels
When doubt becomes me I'm troubled
And all my fears unravel
Do I seek to find disappointment
Do I write with a sense of shame
Like a bird on the ground
Who has injured its wing
I can no longer sing
I'm just waiting for
Someone to tell me
Again and again and again
Rest your head on my shoulder
And I'll take care of your worries
It was you who promised this to me
It was you who offered me courage
In my darkest hour you can hear me
Softly question my travels
When doubt becomes me I'm troubled
And all my fears unravel

( Prelusive EP )
Darling, cover me with your palms
Feel the warmth feel the way to my heart
I have no secrets, nothing I’ll deny, tonight
Say you’ve had enough of strength
And I just want to lead a good life
I’m scarred, don’t leave me to the lions, tonight
So darling don’t sail away
Your love is all I have
And don’t believe what they say
Just be tonight
This life is ours tonight
Darling, capture me with your charms
Leave the wealth of wait in my arms
I have no comfort without you
This world is not my home
Say you’ve had enough of strength
And I just want to lead a good life
I’m scarred, don’t leave me to the lions, tonight
So darling don’t sail away
Your love is all I have
And don’t believe what they say
Just be tonight
This life is ours tonight
So darling don’t sail away
Your love is all I have
And don’t believe what they say
Just be tonight
This life is ours tonight
Just be tonight

Just be tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight
(
She will have her way : songs of Neil & Tim
Finn )
There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're travelling with me
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I’m towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page
Now I’m walking again to the beat of a drum
And I’m counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
Don't ever let them win
( Don't u eva EP )
Long are the days
And the nights of dismay
They’re back again
Just like they never ended
I wonder around in the days
Circle around your grave
Just like you never left it
I watch it all fall down
It all falls down
I fall down from helpless feet
And blistered knees
That are cut, and bleed
To find some release
Blood makes your sound
A drop of life
When it can’t be found
You can’t be found
The sound denial
I watch it all fall down
It all falls down
Is there something else
One thing I barely recognise
The closer to being revealed
The harder I fall to my knees
Oh I fall, we fall, one by one
But we only make a sound
Flame trees
(
Little fish soundtrack - Cold Chisel )
Kids out driving Saturday afternoon pass me by
I'm just savouring familiar sights
We share some history, this town and I
And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her
Try to book a room to stay tonight
Number one is to find some friends to say "you're doing well
After all this time you boys look just the same"
Number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels
Settle in to play "do you remember so and so"
Number three is never say her name
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
But ah! Who needs that sentimental bullshit, anyway
Takes more than just a memory to make me cry
I'm happy just to sit here round a table with old friends
And see which one of us can tell the biggest lies
There's a girl falling in love near where the Pianola stands
With her young local factory out-of-worker, holding hands
And I’m wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay
Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field in our day
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she
Won't be around, won't be around
( Prelusive EP )
Never wanted it to be that way
I always wanted you to see the sun
Never wanted it to be that way
I always wanted you to see the sun
But she was on the outside fading away from you
And seems that somehow she had finally found the truth
Felt life forever haunted eyes face the floor
Feeling somehow life had been here before
I somehow misunderstood what I should be
And wanted it the way that you’d rescue me
She is on the outside looking on me
She’s like the sun I follow, oh
Waiting for the rain again
Watching as the storm begins
Feeling like I’ve done in times before
This time a thousand lost regrets washed up on this shore
I somehow misunderstood what I should be
And wanted it the way that you’d rescue me
She is on the outside looking on me
She’s like the sun I follow, oh
Never wanted it to be that way
I always wanted you to see the sun
Never wanted it to be that way
I always wanted you to see the sun
Never wanted it to be that way
I always wanted you to see the sun
Never wanted it to be that way
I always wanted you to see the sun
So you don’t want egressions anymore
I know a way of letting go
‘Cause I can’t rely on what I’ve learnt
Yeah, yeah, yeah oh
I somehow misunderstood what I should be
And wanted it the way that you’d rescue me
She is on the outside looking on me
She’s like the sun I follow, ooh
She is on the outside looking on me
(never wanted it to be that way, always
Wanted you to see the sun)
She’s like the sun I follow, oh
(never wanted it to be that way, always
Wanted you to see the sun)
She is on the outside looking on me
(never wanted it to be that way, always
Wanted you to see the sun)
She’s like the sun I follow, ooh
(never wanted it to be that way, always
Wanted you to see the sun)
Never wanted it to be that way
( Like a version vol.2 - Elton John )
When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
You know you can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open
This boy's too young to be singing the blues
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I’ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
What do you think you'll do then
I bet that'll shoot down your plane
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground
Into the great wide open
( Don't u eva EP - Tom Petty )
Eddie waited till he finished high school
He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo
He met a girl out there with a tattoo too
The future was wide open
They moved into a place they both could afford
He found a nightclub, he could work at the door
She had a guitar and she taught him some chords
The sky was the limit
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A rebel without a clue
The papers said it always played from the heart
He got an agent and a roadie named Bart
They made a record and it went in the charts
The sky was the limit
His leather jacket had chains that would jingle
They both met movie stars, partied and mingled
Their A&R man said “I don’t hear a single”
The future was wide open
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A rebel without a clue
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A rebel without a clue
Maybe this
Time
( Cinema Blasko EP / Cabaret Ost )
Maybe this time, i'll be lucky
Maybe this time, you'll stay
Maybe this time
For the first time
Love won't hurry away
He will hold me fast
I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Like the last time
And the time before
Everybody loves a winner
So nobody loves me
'Lady Peaceful', 'Lady Happy'
That's what I long to be
All the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's got to happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time i'll win
'Cause everybody loves a winner
So nobody loved me
'Lady Peaceful', 'Lady Happy'
That's what I long to be
Now all the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's got to happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time
Maybe this time i'll win
( Prelusive EP )
In my new religion
I escape the tension
In my true confessions
You’re worth a mention
In my new religion
I’ll forgive no transgressions
In my confrontations
In my legislations
But you don’t know me
That well
But you follow me
I can tell
Take one step forward into the light and say
In my new religion
Forgive my obsessions
Go back before it all began
Go back before it all began
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But you don’t know me
That well
But you follow me
I can tell
Take one step forward into the light and say
But you don’t know me
That well
But you follow me
I can tell
Take one step forward into the light and say
Out Here On
My Own
( Cinema Blasko EP / Irene Cara Cover / Fame Ost )
Sometimes I wonder
Where i've been
Who I am
Do I fit in
Make believin' is hard alone
Out here on my own
We're always provin' who we are
Always reachin'
For that risin' star
To guide me far
And shine me home
Out here on my own
When I'm down and feelin' blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby be strong for me
Baby belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
Until the morning sun appears
Making light
Of all my fears
I dry the tears
I've never shown
Out here on my own
When I'm down and feelin' blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
Sometimes I wonder
Where i've been
Who I am
Do I fit in
I may not win
But I can't be thrown
Out here on my own
Out here on my own
Seems like old
times
( Cinema Blasko EP / Carmen Lombardo cover )
Seems like old times, having you to walk with
Seems like old times, having you to talk with
And it's still a thrill just to have my arms around you
Still the thrill that it was the day I found you
Seems like old times, dinner dates and flowers
Just like old times, staying up for hours
Making dreams come true, doing things we used to do
Seems like old times being here with you
Something
Good
( Cinema Blasko EP / The Sound Of Music )
Perhaps I had a wicked childhood
Perhaps I had a miserable youth
But somewhere in my wicked, miserable past
There must have been a moment of truth
For here you are, standing there, loving me
Whether or not you should
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good
For here you are, standing there, loving me
Whether or not you should
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth
Or childhood
I must have done something
Something good
Sweet surrender
( Prelusive EP )
There’s only one way that I’m walking
Only one thing that I’m talking about
And it’s all surrounding you
I feel so light me head is dreaming
So light my eyes are beaming
And I light the way for you
Sweet surrender, soul inviting
I could fall straight into your arms
Sweet surrender, has its price
I would risk it all for you
Sweet surrender, soul inviting
I could fall straight into your arms
Sweet surrender, has its price
I would risk it all for your love
Stating that, and to leave me to its morning
Only part when day is dawning
And the sky awakens you
Come lies beneath your skin, a storm
‘Cause within your eyes are mountains
As the ground disappears
Sweet surrender, soul inviting
I could fall straight into your arms
Sweet surrender, has its price
I would risk it all for you
Sweet surrender, soul inviting
(sweet surrender, soul inviting)
I could fall straight into your arms
Sweet surrender, has its price
(sweet surrender)
I would risk it all for your love
For your love
Say you’d risk it all for your love
I would risk it all for your love
Sweetness comes from heaven above
My love, oh my, oh my
Sweet surrender, soul inviting
(sweet surrender, soul inviting)
I could fall straight into your arms
Sweet surrender, has its price
(sweet surrender)
I would risk it all for you
Sweet surrender, soul inviting
(sweet surrender, soul inviting)
I could fall straight into your arms
(i’d fall in)
Sweet surrender, has its price
(sweet surrender)
I would risk it all for your love
( Prelusive EP )
The time has come to turn and run
When there seems there’s no room to fall
And what’s the point of kneeling down, just
To hit the ground and crawl
Too many tears to try and swim when alone
Against the floor
Too many thoughts to think too hard when
There’s no absolutes anymore
‘Cause you fly us in the deepest paths
And faith deserves an open heart
Will you ever know
You ever know
You ever know
What this world could be
Is not just illusive fantasy
Will you ever know
You ever know
You ever know
What this world would mean
If you knew your place in history
The time has come to make the change: either
Seek the truth or run
Ooh the truth is this ignorance is bliss when
Your inanity is like a gun
‘Cause you fly us in the deepest paths
Not nestled in your cheap remarks
‘Cause you fly us in the deepest paths
Will you ever know
You ever know
You ever know
Why this world would be
Is not just illusive fantasy
Will you ever know
You ever know
You ever know
(you ever know, you ever know, you ever, you ever know)
What this world would mean
(you ever know, you ever know, you ever )
If you knew your place in history
(you ever know, you ever know, you ever )
Will you ever know
You ever know
You ever know
(you ever know, you ever know, you ever)
What this world would mean
(you ever know, you ever know, you ever)
If you knew your place in history
(you ever know, you ever know, you ever)
Xanadu
( Cinema Blasko EP / Olivia Newton-John cover / Xanadu Ost )
A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu
And now
Open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
They call it Xanadu
A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting love
And you're here with me
Eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu
Now we are here in Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu
Now we are here in Xanadu
Xanadu, your neon lights will shine
For you, Xanadu
The love
The echoes of long ago
You needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu
The dream
That came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu
A million lights are dancing
And there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting love
And you're here with me
Eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu
Now we are here in Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu
Now we are here in Xanadu
Now that I'm here
Now that you're near in Xanadu
Now that I'm here
Now that you're near in Xanadu
Xanadu...
( Prelusive EP )
You’ve got a way that makes the darkness
Light the earth seem holy
Spark in your eye ignites the fire in my hart
My fever is high, my throat is dry whenever
You’re around me
It’s in your way, my love, that always inbounds
It’s in the way move me darling (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way you come and go (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way the colours are drifting
Slowly (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way, it’s in the way (it’s in the way)
Right when I thought my life was mine
My heart was working for me
I realised this blood was flowing for you
‘Cause your ways have made the seasons fade
Into an endless summer
The coldness of winter, only felt when you’re gone
It’s in the way move me darling (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way you come and go (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way the colours are drifting
Slowly (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way, it’s in the way (it’s in the way)
‘Cause hours seem to disappear when we are together
‘Cause when you’re are near, words seem clear,
And I am brought to life, life, life
It’s in the way move me darling (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way you come and go (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way the colours are drifting
Slowly (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way, it’s in the way (it’s in the way)
It’s in the way move me darling (it’s in the way)
(it’s in the way move me darling)
It’s in the way you come and go (it’s in the way)
(it’s in the way you come and go)
It’s in the way the colours are drifting
Slowly (it’s in the way)
(it’s in the way the colours are drifting slowly)
It’s in the way, it’s in the way (it’s in the way)
(it’s in the way, it’s in the way)
(it’s in the way move me darling)
