I see the way you look at me, I see it in your eyes,
I hear it in the way you speak, its written in your smile
Oh please don’t go falling, please, Please don’t go falling for me
Just because I’m single, just because I’m free,
Doesn’t mean I’m any man’s or that I wanna be
I could take you home tonight and we could fool around
But frankly I would rather wait for something more profound
Oh please don’t go falling, please, Please don’t go falling for me
Oh please don’t go falling, please Please don’t go falling for me
I’m happy in my own space, don’t put me in a mold,
Don’t need you to complete me, cos I’m already whole
Nevertheless I’m open, I’ll take it in my stride
But if we meet it’s a two way street, We’re travelling side by side
Oh please don’t go falling, please, Please don’t go falling for me
I’m a happy soul, I’m just a walkin this road, I’m a happy soul, I’m just a walkin this road
I’m a happy soul, I’m just a walkin this road, I’m a happy soul, I’m just a walkin this road

Who Knows?

Blues eyes and boots on my lounge room floor,You surprised me like no one I’d known before
We laughed we loved and we wanted more, Now we’re staring out the back door
Who knows if you’re my tomorrow and Who knows where this will all lead
Who knows if we’ll be here at dawn, Who knows? Who knows?
God knows just how much I love you and I know that you love me too
To know just how to turn the tide, Now we’re shaking on the inside
Cos there’s talk of a landslide
God knows that I’ve got my issues and, You know that you’ve got your own
Do you s’pose we could meet in the middle, You know it wasn’t always this way
And ‘round the corner could be better days
We know this wasn’t how we were, Do we know just what this love is worth?
We know this wasn’t how we were, Do we know just what this love is worth?
Who knows? Who knows?
Who knows if you’re my tomorrow and Who knows where this will all lead
Who knows if we’ll be here at dawn, Who knows? Who knows?

Sweet Joy And Pain

Watch the movie scripts unfold, Flowers blooming, stories told
Secret garden paths of gold, Now, is all we need to hold
Sweet Joy and Pain, Place you come from’s the same
Like the sun and the rain, As we cry, so we’ll smile again
Evening ends, the sun comes up. We live our lives. Our well’s are dug
We dig them deep. And fill them up, With joy and peace, And hope and love
Sweet Joy and Pain, Place you come from’s the same
Like the sun and the rain, As we cry, so we’ll smile again
Sweet Joy and Pain, Place you come from’s the same
Like the sun and the rain, As we cry, so we’ll smile again
Sweet Joy, Sweet Pain

I’m back here again, learning these lessons, Been living and learning cos I didn’t listen
I’ve taken for granted, lived the illusion, The light falls away and I’m back in the womb
Singing Oh oh, Ooh Eee ah Oh - Oh oh ah Ha-hallelujah
Oh oh, Ooh Eee ah Oh - Singing Oh Oh Oh oh
She’s a beautiful wide eyed hot headed tongue tied
Contradictory, Mstery Mstery (mstery), Mstery (mstery)
Mstery (mstery), Mstery (mstery), Mstery (mstery)
I’m everything I say I’m not, Cos what you see is what you’ve got
When you see it then you’ve got a lot, So, be the watcher, not the watched

It was early one evening, the phone rang twice, He said “I Love You, Darling. You’re my wife”
A few months running, now she agreed, To a hotel room down by the sea
He brought no romance, no flowers, no tenderness, no sorry, just a story ‘bout a new mistress
As he rolled her over on that hotel bed, he said “A man has needs, and he needs them met”
I want my wife back, and my family, You get back right now, or I’ll marry Plan B
Plan B, Plan B, Plan B, Plan B
She was afraid of his needs, she was torn about the kids
She begged him “Darlin’ please gimme little time, and some tenderness, and baby we’ll be fine”
But he rolled her over on that hotel bed, saying “A man has needs, and he needs them met”
I want my wife back, and my family
You get back right now, or I’ll marry Plan B
Plan B, Plan B, Plan B, Plan B
Plan B, Plan B, Plan B, Plan B,
Plan B, Plan B, Plan B, Plan B,
Perseverance, excellence, integrity, some say pillar of community
Lied to the lawyers, and welfare too, his kids were walking ‘round with holes in their shoes
Left them all with nothing, and while his sons hit the skids,
He played Super Dad to some other guys kids
Plan B, Plan B, Plan B, Plan B,
Plan B, Plan B, Plan B, Plan B,

I can’t believe, I don’t want to see
It’s so unreal, this happening to me
I thought I was cool, nobody’s fool
‘Til you walked in the door
Cool to fool that’s for sure
Why is love so sly, how can I be so high
When it doesn’t matter at all, but when I’m with you I fall
I want you to see the very best of me
Deep inside is a jewel
But all you see is the fool
You make me freeze, I’m down here on my knees
You’ve got my heart, I’m down here torn apart
I have lost the art of seduction
I’ve become the queen
Of self destruc.... ti ......... On
I want you to see the other side of me
There’s more to me I swear than meets your eye
How can I begin to show you the way in
When there’s no hello I’m all goodbye
You make me freeze
I’m down here on my knees
You’ve got my heart
I’m down here torn apart
I have lost the art of seduction
I’ve become the queen of self destruction
This must be a love sent from stars above
I just want to show
How I love you so

Innocent
03:19
|

If I could have one wish come true, I’d wish everything would be brand new
Like dew, on a cherry tree, Like you, and your love for me
And we would be innocent
If that wish came a little late, I’d take my time and appreciate
Like a butterfly, in its cocoon, Like you and I, not too soon
We would be brilliant
Now, if that wish were true indeed, I’d take my time, slow down, and breathe
Like snow, falling from the sky, I’d know, you and I
We’d be magnificent
If I could have one wish come true, I’d be forgiven, and so would you
And love, would visit us again. Like the good days, way back when
We were innocent, we were innocent, we were innocent

I am an alien, this is my home
You are indigenous, but you’re alone
What do I say? Tell me, what do I do?
What can I say?
You know, I’m so so sorry
Oh, I’m So So Sorry
So So Sorry
It was a travesty, your painful past
Your history, should not be masked
What can I say? Tell me, where do I start?
I want to see through your eyes, I want feel with your heart
Reconciliation, Reconciliation
Reconciliation, hey hey, hey hey

Hear Me Out
03:56
|

|
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a dreamer, Hear me out before you see me out the door
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a loser, You’re the loser, cos you’re a dreamer
Too afraid to dream anymore.
You think I’m wasting time, entertaining fantasy, and what I want from life is to escape reality
Before you read my future, before you close that book,
Try to understand, just take a closer look, and
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a dreamer, Hear me out before you see me out the door
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a loser, You’re the loser, cos you’re a dreamer
We started out the same in the sunshine gazing up at the sky,
But then they taught us to walk, cos “we were never meant to fly”
They tried to teach us to create, but an original was “second rate”
You waste your life building what’s been built, So you can hide yourself away, but
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a dreamer, Hear me out before you see me out the door
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a loser, You’re the loser, cos you’re a dreamer
My eyes are fixed, I won’t sway this time
I wonder what I’m gonna find?
My dream no less, my dream, no more escaping reality
The two will soon collide…. That’s all I see, so
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a dreamer, Hear me out before you see me out the door
Hear me out before you tell me I’m a loser, You’re the loser, cos you’re a dreamer

Leaving My Love
03:37
|
|||
|
We met at St Andrews in the month of May,
Up at the chai tent you were lookin’ my way
Your eyes they were laughing and your soul was ablaze
You picked me up and carried me away
Oh I breeze down breeze down breeze down, Breathe in, breathe out
Oh I live now, live now, live now, I live with my love
Remember living on the mountain, our rustic tea tree fence
The drought, the moon, the bushfires, dancing naked in the rain
Making love in the orchard, our branch down by the creek
Or out on the verandah sipping tea
You were my mirror and I grappled with myself, We pulled the triggers to heaven and to hell
We laughed and we cried, battled and we healed, and its hard not to hold on to love
But the more that you love me the less you’ll demand,
And the less you expect of me the more love you’ll have
And the more that I love you the less I’ll demand
And the less I expect of you the more love I’ll have
Yeah I breeze down breeze down breeze down, Breathe in, breathe out
Oh I leave now, leave now, leave now, I’m leaving my love, yeah I’m leaving my love
Oh I’m leaving my love.

I'll Be There

When you rest your head tonight
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
To kiss you gently, hold you tight
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Leave the darkness far behind,
Farewell to the night mmmm
In the still of morning find,
A new day dawning bright, dawning bright
Spirit rise to sweet release,
Fill your heart with Joy and Peace
Turn sleepy eyes toward the light
And I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Through the day and into night
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Leave the darkness far behind,
Farewell to the night mmmm
In the still of morning find,
A new day dawning bright, dawning bright
When you rest your head tonight
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Through the day and into night
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Ooh, oooh
Ooh
