ALL THIS WAY

You've come all this way
Now don't back away
Listen they're calling your name
Forget your questions
Leave your objections
Just keep on making your way

To the boat in the harbour
Your feet will discover  
The road that you must stumble on
Don't worry baby
Know you can trust me
I will be leading you on

To the boat in the harbour
Your feet will discover  
The road that you must stumble on
Don't worry baby
Know you can trust me
I will be leading you on

Don't look into the deep
Look into the deep
Just keep your eyes on me
I will show you how to walk along the ridge
Don't look into the deep
Look into the deep
Just one more step
We'll jump at the count of three

One two
Don't back away
You've come all this way
One two three
 

AN AVERAGE WOMAN    

Some girls build towers, others dig deep
Some pray to angels, some wait and see
Some girls stay quiet, some scream in your face
Some kill their darlings, some hesitate

And I, I was an average woman
I tried to do good, I tried to be kind
Kept my head above water, 
most of the time, most of the time

Some girls eat fire, some stick to their guns
Some dance on the tables and have all your fun
Some girls have answers, some retaliate
Some take on oceans, some take on fate

And I, I was an average woman
I tried to do good, I tried to be kind
Kept my head above water, 
Most of the time, most of the time

I struggled and failed and I laughed at your jokes
I came to your aid when you needed me most
I screamed like a fury in the dead of the night
And curled up beside you to make right

ANNEKIN'S BAY

I'll carry you across 
Beyond the burning rocks 
It's written in the stars 
And the palm of your hand
As the merrymakers ride 
Their ferry through the night
You can leave your boots ashore 
You don't need them anymore.  

All you gotta do is hold on to my hand 
We can watch the moon ascend 
over Annekin's bay

The ocean's not that wide 
I can see the other side
Feel the current glide under our bow 
We'll lean into the wind 
And every crescent rim
Of every coming dawn will carry us on

All you gotta do is hold on to my hand 
We can watch the moon ascend 
Over Annekin's bay 

Time moves like a curve
Carving round the earth
Climb the wave and surf into a free fall 
As we dive into the dark 
Every atom sparks
and every second bends 
So we can begin again 

All you gotta do is hold on to my hand 
We can watch the moon ascend 
Over Annekin's bay
 

ANOTHER TO DO

A million broken promises strewn on the floor
Declarations of intent left out by the door
Sweet toothed wishing-wellers hastening out the window
Followed by the echoing calls of I told you so
I told you so, I told you so

But you don't listen
You don't wanna know
I can stamp my feet and scream out loud
But I don't get through

You say that you love me
But it don't ring true
Such an easy thing to say
Another to do 

So tell me just how am I supposed to move on 
Do I smile in public and cry on my own
Do I just pretend that there's nothing wrong
Do I swallow it up until it swallows me whole
I told you so, I told you so

But you don't listen
You don't wanna know
I can stamp my feet and scream out loud
But I don't get through

You say that you love me
But it don't ring true
Such an easy thing to say
Another to do

So help me understand cause I don't think I do
If it's true for me, how can it not be for you
Do you turn a blind eye to every blow
Well maybe that's working for you but it is crushing my soul
I told you so, I told you so

But you don't listen
You don't wanna know
I can stamp my feet and scream out loud
But I just don't get through

You say that you love me
But it don't ring true
Such an easy thing to say
an easy thing to say
an easy thing to say
Another to do

AS YOURS TURNS INTO MINE

I breathe in your skin from the hollow 
Where your neck begins 
I leave my lips to linger on 
Your collarbone 
Raise my hands above your spine 
Trace my fingers down 
Along the edge of where we start 
And weld us into one 

For I am made of flesh that folds 
Around your bones 
I am made of skin that glows 
and glistens as it listens 

To the flow of your blood 
Between the beats of your heart 
Chase their ways through all your limbs 
And lead them into mine 
Along the bends, the twists the curves 
As yours turns into mine 

For I am made of flesh that folds 
Around your bones 
I am made of skin that glows 
And glistens as it listens
 

Ballad of the Quiet Citizen

I did not blow up any buildings 
I did not wage no phoney wars 
I did not ask for admiration 
Or drew attention to my words 
I was humble, I was easy 
I was quiet, I was kind 
I looked out for my neighbours 
In the deadest of the night 
And you think you can ignore me 
Or freeze me up in fear 
But I stand with the many 
And our whispers will begin 
To fill up your voids 
And to rise over your walls 

One by one we will join 
Our hands across your borders 
Two by two we'll undo 
The lies that you have made up 
To divide us 
Your hate it shouts 
But love speaks louder still 

I turned the other cheek 
I payed my income tax 
I took care of those in need 
And tried to give them hope again 
I built your cars, laid down your streets 
I cooked your meals and cleaned 
Your restaurants, your trains and planes 
And I taught your kids to read 
And you think you can deride me 
And take away my pride 
But I stand with the many 
And our whispers will collide 
To fill up your voids 
And to rise over your walls 

One by one we will join 
Our hands across your borders 
Two by two we'll undo 
The lies that you have made up 
To divide us 
Your hate it shouts 
But love speaks louder still
 

BE IT TO THE END

He wakes me in the morning 
With a gun in his hand
Tells me he has to go
And must make his way fast
He lifts me from the bed
And kisses my hair
As I lock my arms around him
I whisper in his ear

Be it to the end my darling I will go
Be it to the end my darling I will follow

He slowly shakes his head
Puts his hand across my mouth
We listen to the wind
Stirring in the south
And as he kisses my neck
He tells me he knows best
Where he goes no one follows
But I’m not so sure of that

Be it to the end my darling I will go
Be it to the end my darling I will follow

BREAKFAST ROOM REVELATION 

I find you in the breakfast room
You’re sipping orange juice
There’s a cigarette behind your ear
As the waiters make their haste
Stacking plates high upon plates
I feel the earth shake
Are those your shoulders is it true
Your hands, your scars, yours fingers too
How I know it

And it’s so good to look at you
If I’m dreaming won’t nobody wake me
Cause it’s so good to be with you
If I’m in some kind of spell don’t break it
Just make it last for a while
Last for a while, last for a while.

You look at me and smile
And say hi baby
Sorry that it took me a while
You got caught up you say 
It was all some big mistake
Then you stand and make your way
Towards the self-service buffet
And ask me if I want some bread or fruit 
You say they got good coffee too
If I’d want it

And it’s so good to look at you
If I’m dreaming won’t nobody wake me
Cause it’s so good to be with you
If I’m in some kind of spell don’t break it
Just make it last for a while
Last for a while, last for a while

Your off-white linen shirt and your off-white linen pants
Hang from your perfect frame just like you’re floating on air
It’s nobody’s fault you say, no, no one is to blame 
You’re just glad to be back again and this time 
You are gonna stay
 

BEER FIZZ

It’s almost six o’clock and you are coming home from work
Your feet hurt, your eyes burn
You open up a can of beer and listen to the fizz die out
Time heels every wound they say
But how long do you have to wait

A thousand nights 
A thousand days
A thousand whys to consider
A thousand hows to revisit
When is it done
When will it end
Oh come on now time please
Reach out a hand

It’s almost two o’clock and you are in your bed
Your head spins, your heart pounds
You close your eyes again and try to take a quiet breath
Count to ten and hope it will quiet down
You're gonna get through this somehow

A thousand nights 
A thousand days
A thousand whys to consider
A thousand hows to revisit
When is it done
When will it end
Oh come on now time please
Reach out a hand
 

BRING IT ON RIGHT

The morning comes in jubilee
it rushes down the street
I’m just gonna follow it
leave it to my feet
Oh I’m gonna run
I’ll run fast, I’ll run wide
I’ll run wherever I want
Who’ s gonna stop me now

So bring it on, bring it on right
Give me my freedom, I’ll carry her high
I will be strong, I’ll be so strong this time
So bring it on, I’m more than ready now

The morning comes in colours bright
they shine for me and you
Pick them up and treat them right
That’s all you have to do
And you gotta run,
run fast and run wide
run wherever you want
who’s gonna try to stop you now

Just bring it on, bring it on right
Give me my freedom, I’ll carry her high
I will be strong, I’ll be so strong this time
So bring it on, I’m more than ready now

And I still don’t know where I’m headed
I still don’t know how to not look back
I still keep waiting for a miracle
Something gonna keep me on the right path

BURNING OF DAWN

Are you lonesome my friend
Have you lost your bearings
Should I welcome you in
Or keep my door shut

Is it pleasure you seek
Or a new beginning
A redemption of sins
Or understanding

You can find me at the burning of dawn
I'll whisper on the wind so you can follow along
Beware the warden's fast asleep
He wont be coming to your rescue
But do you want to be rescued?      

I can open the door 
Let you walk through my halls 
All the ceilings and vaults 
Are never-ending 

There's a fire I keep 
In the balls of my feet
You can have a quick peak
When I climb those stairs

Join me at the burning of dawn
I'll whisper on the wind so you can follow along
Beware the warden's fast asleep
He wont be coming to your rescue
But do you want to be rescued?

BY THE OAK TREE

If you want me, if you need me
You can find me where you left me last time
By the oak tree in the meadow wide
I’ll be singing a lullaby

When you’re weary, and you’re out of hope
You can find me where you left me last time
By the oak tree in the meadow wide
I’ll be singing a lullaby

Hush now child, don’t you cry
the road is long, the mountain high
just keep walking, keep walking
and you will find me, where you left me last time 
By the oak tree, in the meadow wide
I’ll be singing a lullaby

Wherever you are, what ever you do, I’ll be with you
Tracing the steps that you take in the heavens above
And when you get lost, my hands will guide you
So keep on my love, keep on my love

If you want me, If you need me
You can find me, where you left me last time
By the oak tree, in the meadow wide
I’ll be singing a lullaby

CAROLINA’S ANATOMY 

Carolina dances on the roof beneath the starlight 
as she sways to the beat of the drum machine
Holds her hands out to the sky and lets all worry pass her by
she sways to the beat of the drum machine
Have you ever been this close to feeling no remorse
And being where you want to be

Carolina smiles and opens her eyes 
as she sways to the beat of the drum machine
turns her shoulders bare and tosses her hair
and it sways to the beat of the drum machine
Have you ever been this close to feeling no remorse
And being where you want to be

Carolina’s hips they do a certain little twist 
Where you can almost get your head around
Let’s her twirling legs move along the edge 
To where the music is not that loud
Have you ever been this close to feeling no remorse 
And being where you want to be

Carolina’s feet then move to your seat
Where she sits down next to you
Takes your hand, lifts it to her lips 
And with the softest kiss she gets you there

CARRY ME

Who's gonna carry
Carry me home
Who’s gonna bury
Bury my bones
The road is dark
I think I lost my way

Who's gonna whisper
Whisper my name
Who's gonna tell me
Tell me it's okay
The road is dark
I think I lost my way

Who’s gonna redeem me
Who’s gonna know
How to piece together
The fragments of my shattered soul

Who's gonna make me
Make me believe
Who's gonna show me
Show me I'm free
The road is dark
I think I lost my way

Who's gonna reach out
Reach out a hand
Who's gonna sooth my
Burning skin
The road is dark
I think I lost my way

Who’s gonna redeem me
Who’s gonna know
How to piece together
The fragments of my shattered soul

Does freedom lie
Within my reach
Beyond the edge
Of what I see

Beyond the grip of meaning
Beyond the edge of reason
Behind the shoreless seas
I'm wading through the deep

Who's gonna carry
Carry me home
Who’s gonna bury
Bury my bones
 

CICELINE

I tell the truth but I speak in riddles
I bend the hands of time
I wake your past and shape your future
I sneak up from behind
You search me in the darkness
But I hide in the light
And catch you when you least expect it
Off hand, off guard

They call me Ciceline
I come in different shapes and sizes
What would you have me be
Blue, red, blood orange or
Dishwashing water green 

So open up your hand babe
And let me read between the lines
Let me nestle in your creases
and unfold all your lies
Cause what we tell ourselves
Ain't what we need to hear
I'll give it to you slant dear
and dazzle gradually

They call me Ciceline
I come in different shapes and sizes
What would you have me be
Blue, red, blood orange or
Dishwashing water green       

ONE SHOT
Is all you got
Better keep your feet steady

ONE SHOT
And then you're done
Now tell me baby are you ready?

DESERT BRIDE

I crossed the desert with a virgin bride
In cut off jeans and a smile so wide
It lightened up the sky above
As she leaped from the jeep into his arms

She don't say no he's got a factory
Dealing in tokens and memories
Souvenirs to hold dear
Dangling from his key ring chain

We climbed into the eye of the sleeping beast
Laid out in stone for all eternity
Do you believe she asked of me
I can believe if you do

We danced on a ridge 
Like a knife so sharp
Kicking up the soft sand 
With our stubborn hearts
Are we free at last 
Or are we on the run
Will we raise the winds 
Or drift away 
Like dust in the desert sun
Like dust in the desert sun

He set up a tent and he lit a fire
She wanted to stay out and watch the stars
On the ridge she took my hand
Tracing the lines in my palm

You will travel over many lands
I will stay here and raise his sons
But tonight we are alike
Bathing in the same moonlight

We danced on a ridge 
Like a knife so sharp
Kicking up the soft sand 
With our stubborn hearts
Are we free at last 
Or are we on the run
Will we raise the winds 
Or drift away 
Like dust in the desert sun
Like dust in the desert sun
 

DON'T TALK TO THE CAPTAIN

Don’t talk to the captain, he wears his heart upon his sleeve
And once he starts talking, we will never leave
We’ ve been stuck here on these cold rocks for way too long
Waiting for the old man to steer us home

Don’t talk to the captain, he’s got an troubled mind
He’ll tell you of his great love, how she set his soul on fire
How he met her in the harbour in the early morning hours
How she curled up the ladder, made him forget that he ever 
had to get us out

Sure we like being on board but we all just want to get home soon
Oh we like being on board but we all just wanna get home

Don’t talk to the captain, I wish you well
And up here on these cold rocks, nothing good ever fell 
So join us in the lobby and have a drink or two
But don’t invite the captain, it’d be a foolish thing to do

Sure we like being on board but we all just want to get home soon
Oh we like being on board but we all just wanna get home

DUST CHASER

I rode out many a morning 
Beneath a blackened sky
I heard many a warning 
But I let them pass me by

They say this game ain't for quitters
They say that nothing is true
But I know better baby 
And when I have you in my arms you know it too

We'll chase the dust 
Through the cracks in the everyday
We'll push through rocks 
With the breath of a featherweight 
And when the raging river calls 
We'll follow through
And let it carry us to where it wants to

I rode out many an evening 
On the devil's tail
Sure I got lost for meaning 
But I kept my eyes on the trail

Baby when you feel it
Then never say no
You can try to conceal it 
But it's seeping from the crevices of your porous soul

We chase the dust 
Through the cracks in the everyday
We'll push through rocks 
With the breath of a featherweight 
And when the raging river calls 
We'll follow through
And let it carry us to where it wants to

We'll let it carry us
Let it carry us
Let it carry us 
To where it wants to

EUROPA ESCAPES

Europa escapes, gathers her lakes
her mountains and hills and sets off for the gates
Done with your maudlin, your all night marauding 
your self serving ardour and rage

She gonna find her somewhere new
where the women are brave and men true
where they treat her body good
love her and feed her and shield her
caress her and thank her and please her
hold her and hug her and heal her
like you have forgotten to 

Europa escapes, closes the gates 
shut with a bang just as loud as she can 
gathers your outlaws, your exiles your havenots 
gives them the keys to your courts

She tells them to burn it down
To tear all your towers to the ground
And she’ll find her someone new
To love her and feed her and shield her
caress her and thank her and please her
hold her and hug her and heal her
like you have forgotten to

What’s stolen will one day steal back
what’s waged at the dagger will fall into it
what’s lied to will break from the truth
What’s taken by force will never be yours

Liberty, liberty, liberty, save yourself for me

FLOWERS IN THE FIELDS

There are flowers in the fields 
Honey on the breeze
Fire at my heels and I am gathering speed

There's hissing in the docks
Wailing at the rocks
Aiming for my heart and I am gonna give in

All you little part-time sinners
Make room for something true
All you little peacetime quitters
Are you finally gonna get what you're due

Flowers in the fields
Flowers in the fields
Flowers in the fields 
I am gathering speed

There's nothing in the sky
Nothing on my mind
The tingle in my spine is all I need to steer by
All corners of the wind
Are tearing at my skin
Raking up my sins and I am gonna jump in

All you little part-time sinners
Make room for something true
All you little peacetime quitters
Are you finally gonna get what you're due

Flowers in the fields
Flowers in the fields
Flowers in the fields 
I am gathering speed

God is in the Detour 

I met God at the corner shop, she was looking kinda lonely so I gave her a nod. She smiled back and we started to talk. She said, 'Ain't it strange that there are so many different kinds of tea and could you reach the blue one on the highest shelf for me?' 
Sure God, whatever you want. 

And then she asked me if I had some time for a coffee. And I said, 'I've been dreaming all of my life to have a coffee with you.' She said, 'How lovely, nowadays most people are in a hurry. They have lists and plans and stuff they need to do and don't get me wrong, there's a lot to be said for having a plan, there's a lot to be gained from acting fast, there's a whole lot of sense in being direct. But then again, the good stuff seems to happen when you're on a detour. Come find me on a detour,'

She paid for her tea and then we went outside, the sun shone bright and the cars sped by. She said, 'I've been meaning to look into that, but I guess I got a little sidetracked, cause sometimes I lose track of time and sometimes I don't mind and let it all just drift away and then I find myself again on a detour, on a detour, you'll find me on a detour.'

'There's a lot to be said for having a plan, there's a lot to be gained from acting fast, there's a whole lot of sense in being direct, but then again, the good stuff seems to happen when you're on a detour, on a detour, on a detour, come join me on a detour'
 

HIGH SCHOOL GYM WALL

They painted your picture
On the high school gym wall
Your eyes as big as baskets
Your smile the size of a goal
If I could I would
Stay there all night
Watch the shades turn to ghosts 
That dance in a waning moonlight 
I’d rub my feet
Along the concrete
Spread out my hands on the floor
We will be one, once more 

They made your eyes sparkle
With a nine-pointed star
In blue and silver paints
That glow up in the dark
If I could I would
Dive right into
And drift away upon your seas
To never ever return
I’d rub my feet
Along the concrete
Spread out my hands on the floor
We will be one, once more 

The ceiling breaks open
The night sky calls
The darkness is endless
The stars shine cold 
The dance floor is empty
So come on my love
I’ll breathe live back into you heart 

They painted your picture
On the high school gym wall
Your hair forever flowing in the wind
Your smile to die for
 

I WAS INNOCENT

Every story carved into these crumbling walls starts with I was innocent 
Blame my mother, blame my father, blame my coldhearted lover 
But know that I was innocent 

Didn't want to steal
Didn't mean to run
Didn't pull the trigger
Didn't hide the gun

Every cry aimed at that tiny square of sky rings with you are guilty too
You have lied and you have lusted, you've misused and mistrusted
Oh yeh you are guilty too

Didn't want to steal
Didn't mean to run
Didn't pull the trigger
Didn't hide the gun

Every whisper mumbled in these bad dream slumbers stops with please leave me be
Please don't haunt me, don't confront me, please don't push the truth upon me
Oh no please leave me be

Didn't want to steal
Didn't mean to run
Didn't pull the trigger
Didn't hide the gun

All I ever wanted was to save her
But I guess I lost myself
In the prison of our good intentions
The wicked warden laughs behind your back 

I Wish You Well

It sure sounds funny
When you say it out loud
How you really don't want me
To stay around
You've made your choices
You're gonna see them through
So there's nothing left for me to do
But to wish you well
I wish you, I wish you well
I wish you, I wish you well

A thousand nights we
Crossed a thousand seas
I held you through the hurt
And you held on to me
But you don't wanna remember
You say it just ain't true
So there's nothing left for me to do
But to wish you well
I wish you, I wish you well
I wish you, I wish you well

And one last thing babe
Before I go
If you ever change your mind 
I just want you to know
That I will be waiting
I'll always keep the light on
So you can find your way back home
And I wish you would
I wish you, I wish you would
I wish you, I wish you would
 

JUMP IN

Did you think evil would come knocking
On your shiny brass bell
Instead of sneaking through the crevices 
That you hide well

Did you think it would be easy 
If you played by heart
That you could always keep your hands clean
And your mind soft

If money be the measure then greed be king
If you have nothing to offer you can sell your skin
They say the rates are good this time of year so jump in
Jump in, jump in, let me see you swim

Did you think virtue was a statue carved in stone
Instead of something that can slip through your fingers
And make a dirty mess all over your floor

Did you think it would be breezyvlike a summer dress
That you could wiggle your way out of 
When it suited you less

If money be the measure then greed be king
If you have nothing to offer you can sell your skin
They say the rates are good this time of year so jump in
Jump in, jump in, let me see you swim

Swim little girl oh the pond is deep
Or do you want to slip under water 

Did you think you were safe
That you had nothing to lose
All you ever held dear
Your versions of the truth
All of your certainties
Your little dreams 
Your own sense of morality
Your sanity 
Is like an aching tooth I can pull it out for you

If money be the measure then greed be king
If you have nothing to offer you can sell your skin
They say the rates are good this time of year so jump in
Jump in, jump in, jump in 
Let me see you swim

Swim little girl 
The pond is deep

 

LISTEN TO YOU BREATHE

You’re a wandering man, I’m a wayward girl 
The gun in your hands don’t scare me off
I like the heat from the flames that you throw
Brushing my skin, willing me on

One day you’ll be mine to keep
I’ll rest my head on your chest 
and listen to you breathe

So I pack up my bags and I move down the stairs
Cross the hall, through the door, cross the garden 
I climb the fence into the forest 
Its dark but I know where to go, I’ll feel my way through it
My feet are strong, they’ll carry on, my hands able 
I’ll reach them out and watch them catch them falling stars

Then you will be mine to keep
I’ll rest my head on your chest 
and listen to you breathe

MY SWEETHEART

My sweetheart lives in the forest,
where trees are tall and nights black,
where ravens crow in the morning,
at the end of the wayfarer’s path. 

And when I go there a’ walking,
through the meadows and fields,
I hear my mother calling,
Girl you’d better watch your feet.

My sweetheart he makes me coffee,
strong bitter and black.
He lifts me up from the kitchen
and carries me into this bed.

And there he whispers into my ear
some of he sweetest words I have heard
lifting me high from this treacherous earth
feeding my soul, quenching my thirst
feeding my soul, quenching my thirst.

My sweetheart he never asks me
when I’ll be back
He knows I will come running 
down the wayfarer’s path

And there he whispers into my ear
some of he sweetest words I have heard
lifting me high from this treacherous earth
feeding my soul, quenching my thirst
feeding my soul, quenching my thirst.

RED RIVER GIRL

The sun rises over the isle of men
after the hurricane the river rushes down
I guess I have been luckier then most
I got on to the riverbank

The sun rises over the isle of men
and red is the river after the hurricane
in this kingdom built on bone and marrow
of these children raised on guilt and sorrow

The sun rises over the isle of men
and the preacher said he’ s done all he can
and to have faith in the powers that be 
but my heart is empty and my hope is skin deep

This freedom I bought with obedience
this beauty I paid for in kind
and when this day passes 
what will it leave behind
just another red river girl, 
a red river girl, a red river girl

SULTAN'S SQUARE

We used to dance on Sultan’s Square
After we brushed each other’s hair
We used to drink from the fountain’s head
In the emperor’s garden or have you forgotten

Your hair in the wind
Your eyes on the clouds
your hands like a garland
weaving me onward

Fare thee well sacred city
your dust and dreams are all I can carry with me
fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well

We used to dive in the dead of the night
from the top of the bridge into the abyss 
The water so cold
But you were so strong
How could we have worried
How could we’ve been wrong 

Fare thee well sacred city
your dust and dreams are all I can carry with me
fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well

TO FEEL FREE

Caught you dancing with your coat on 
in the hallway of your mom’s home
saw you singing with your eyes closed 
when the rain came down
Sometimes its easy to feel free
Sometimes it hurts 
But darling you can lean on me and I’ll be

Your soldier, your armour, your haven, your homeland
your truth seeker, your truce keeper, your all is quiet now

If you want to I’ll come over 
and I’ll hold you tight
Rest your head upon my shoulder 
You can close your eyes
Sometimes its easy to feel free
Sometimes it hurts 
But darling you can lean on me and I’ll be

Your soldier, your armour, your haven, your homeland
your truth seeker, your truce keeper, your all is quiet now

So you can let go, let go, let go, let go, let go

WHOLE AGAIN

I still see you walking that grey dirty street
A knife in your pocket, no shoes on your feet
The night was your ally, the stars were your tools
You said they’d look out for you
But that’s something they failed to do

And I’m here, still waiting for a sign
For you to make things right        
To come back and pick up the pieces of our fractured hearts 
And make them whole again, whole again, whole again
Make them whole again

I still hear you laughing that big carefree laugh
No chip on your shoulder, no weight on your back
And how I believed you, how I thought it was true
You were invincible, and I was invincible too

But I’m here, still waiting for a sign
For you to make things right        
To come back and pick up the pieces of our fractured hearts 
And make them whole again, whole again, whole again
Make them whole again
