like a star
just like a star across my sky, just like an angel off the page. you have appeared into my life, feel like i'll never be the same. just like a song in my heart, just like oil on my hands.. honour to love you. still i wonder why it is, i don't argue like this with anyone but you. we do it all the time, blowing out my mind. you've got this look you cant describe, you make me feel like i'm alive.
too lost in you
you look into my eyes, i go out of my mind, i can't see anything cause this love's got me blind. i can't help myself, i can't break this spell, i can't even try. i'm in over my head, you got under my skin, i got no sense at all in the state that i'm in. and my knees are weak, and my mouth can't speak, fell too far this time. baby i'm too lost in you, caught in you, lost in everything about you. so deep, i can't sleep, i can't think, i just think about the things that you do, i'm too lost in you. well you whisper to me, and i shiver inside, you undo me and move me in ways undefined. and you're all i see, and you're all i need. i'm going crazy in love for you baby, i'm going down like a stone in the sea. no-one can rescue me.
you sent me flying
you sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb.
sway
don't stray, don't ever go away. i should be much too smart for this - you know it gets the better of me. sometimes, when you and i collide, i fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time don't let me drown, let me down, i say it's all because of you. and here i go, losing my control. i'm practicing your name so i can say it to your face. it doesn't seem right to look you in the eye - let all the things you mean to me come tumbling out my mouth. indeed it's time, tell you why, i say it's infinitely true. say you'll stay, don't come and go like you do. sway my way, i need to know all about you. and there's no cure, and no way to be sure, why everything's turned inside out, instilling so much doubt. it makes me so tired, i feel so uninspired. my head is battling with my heart - all logic has been torn apart. and now, it all turns sour.. come sweeten my every afternoon. it's all because of you. it's all because of you.
creep
when you were here before, i couldn't look you in the eye. your just like an angel, your skin makes me cry. i wish i was special- you're so fucking special. i want you to notice when i'm not around. you're so fucking special, i wish i was special. whatever you want, whatever makes you happy. you're so fucking special. i wish i was special.
thinking about you
you're my star, what do you care?
just don't think..
if i lived until i was 102, i just don't think i'll ever get over you.
secretly
because this one time, back in the day, we were lying on my bed, him kind of half on top of me with his arm across my chest, and his head in the crook of my neck. facing down i mean, lying on his front. i was stroking the hair on the back of his neck and he fell asleep. like that, kind of hugging me. it could almost constitute as snuggling. and this song was playing and it made me cry, silently, because i knew it was a mistake and he hadn't meant to fall asleep and that i had maybe about five minutes, tops, before he woke up, realised his mistake, and left. he did just that. but when he sat up i guess he saw the wetness around my eyes and he just kind of looked at me for a minute. i said, ...what? and he said, nothing. and he left. but i could see in his eyes, he knew exactly how i felt right then. that's why he didn't say anything. you don't shit on your own doorstep, i guess.
the scientist
you don't know how lovely you are. i had to find you, tell you i need you, tell you i set you apart. tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions, oh let's go back to the start. nobody said it was easy, no-one ever said it would be so hard. tell me you love me, come back and haunt me, oh let's rush back to the start. nobody said it was easy, no-one ever said it would this hard.
please forgive me
feels like lightning running through my veins, everytime i look at you. every time i look at you. help me out here, all my words are falling short. and there's so much i want to say. want to tell you just how good it feels, when you look at me that way. when you look at me that way. like a stone i fall into your eyes. deep into some mystery. i got half a mind to scream out loud, i got half a mind to die. so i won't ever have to lose you. won't ever have to say goodbye. won't ever have to lie. it's like my head is filled with lightning, every time i look at you. every time i look at you. every time i look at you..
cold water
just because, really.
peach, plum, pear
i'm a sensitive bore, and you're markedly more. but it's late in the day, and you're well on your way. what was golden went grey, and i'm suddenly shy. i have read the right books to interpret your looks - you were knocking me down with the palk of your eye. this was unlike the story it was written to be, i was riding its back when it used to ride me. and i was blue. i am blue, and unwell. made me bolt like a horse. made me bolt like a whore. now it's done.. watch it go. and you've changed so.
samson
you are my sweetest downfall, i loved you first.
nothing came out
just because i dont say anything, doesn't mean i don't like you. i opened my mouth and i tried and i tried. but no words came out.
lovestain
you left a lovestain on my heart, and a bloodstain on the ground. but blood comes off easily. blood comes off easily...
turn me on
like a flower waiting to bloom. like a lightbulb in a darkened room. i'm just sitting here waiting for you to turn me on. like the desert waiting for the rain. like a schoolkid waiting for the spring. i'm just sitting here waiting for you to turn me on. my poor heart, it's been so dark since you've been gone. after all, you're the one who turns me off.. you're the only one who can turn me back on.
to be alone with you
i'd swim across lake michigan. i'd sell my shoes. i'd give my body to be back again. to be alone with you. to be alone with you.
left and leaving
the sidewalks are watching me think about you.
this love
just because, again, really.
droplets
i'm walking down this road alone and it figures, all i'm thinking about is you. is you, my love. my head is in a cloud of rain and the world, it seems so far away and i'm just waiting to fall into your skin. you left a mark - i wear it proudly on my chest above my heart. to remind me that i feel the best, when i'm with you. i'm just waiting to fall deep into your skin. you are like the raindrops, the raindrops, falling down on me.
goodbye my lover
did i disappoint you? or let you down? should i be feeling guilty? let the judges frown? i saw the end before it begun.. it may be over but it won't stop there. i am here for you, if you'd only care. you touched my heart, touched my soul. changed my life and all my goals. and love is blind, that i knew when my heart was blinded by you. i've kissed your lips and held your hand. shared your bed. i know you well, i know your smell. i've been addicted to you. goodbye my lover. you have been the one, been the one for me. as you move on, remember me. remember us and all we used to be. i've seen you cry i've seen you smile. i've watched you sleeping for a while. i'd be the mother of your child. i'd spend a lifetime with you. i know your fears and you know mine. and i love you, i swear that's true. i cannot live, without you. you have been the one for me. and i still hold your hand in mine, in mine when i'm asleep. i'm so hollow baby. i'm so hollow.
lovefool
dear, i fear we're facing a problem- you love me no longer, i know. and maybe there's nothing i can do, to make you do. mama tells me i shouldn't bother, that i ought to stick to another man, one that deserves me. but i think you do.. so i cry, i pray, and i beg: love me, love me, say that you love me. fool me, fool me, go on and fool me. love me, love me, pretend that you love me. leave me, leave me, just say that you need me. i can't care about anything but you.. lately i have desperately pondered, spend my nights awake and i wonder- what i could have done in another way to make you stay.i don't care if you really care, as long as you don't go..
i try
i believe that fate has brought us here, we should be together - but we're not. i play it off but i'm dreaming of you. i keep my cool but i'm fiendin.. i try to say goodbye and i choke. try to walk away and i stumble, though i try to hide it, it's clear- my world crumbles when you are not here. i may appear to be free, but i'm just a prisoner of your love. i may seem alright, and smile when you leave.. but my smiles are just a front. though i try to hide it, it's clear- my world crumbles when you are not here.
still
i still light up like a candle burning when he calls me up. i still melt down like a candle burning every time we touch.
i don't know about the bublé song. i love it so, and its lyrics speak. but it's rather inappropriate.. happy. joyful. an anthem for lovers, of the loving kind rather than the fucking kind. i don't know.
everything
you're a falling star. you're the get away car. you're a line in the sand when i go too far. you're the swimming pool on an august day. and you're the perfect thing to say. you play it coy, but it's kinda cute. when you smile at me you know exactly what you do. baby don't pretend you don't know it's true. cause you can see it when i look at you. and in this crazy life, through these crazy times, it's you, it's you, you make me sing, you're every line, every word, you're everything. you're a carousel, you're a wishing well, and you light me up when you ring my bell. you're a mystery, you're from outer space, you're every minute, you're my everyday. it's you, it's you, you make me sing. you're every line, every word you're everything. you're every song, and i sing along, cause you're my everything.
