THROUGH MY VEINS

THROUGH MY VEINS


I saw you in the window
Of a caf? I passed by
And though clearly my reflection
It was your face I recognized
And after all these years
I?m still right here
Where you left me
And I?ve been calling out
Believing you would answer
But I?ll try to let go now
Cause it?s you running through my veins
You?d come by when I was dreaming
But lately you?ve been gone
Maybe I?ve been trying too hard
Maybe you have just moved on
I guess there?s not a lot
That you forgot
To tell me
But I?ve missed you hangin? round
And the way we were together
But I can let go now
Cause it?s you running through my veins


Oh, oh
Yeah, it?s you running through my veins 3x

TO MY SENSES

TO MY SENSES


Well, its cold here in the quiet
Drowning in the silence
Of everythign I wish we used to be
So many chances wasted
And kisses left untasted
So much that still burns inside of me

I kept reaching out, only to be shut down
But now the truth is giving me away

I've been running, yeah, Ive been running
But now im coming to my senses

I am humble by your splendor
Awash in sweet surrender
A thousand miles beyond the road to gone
Well, im tired of being lonely
And you're longing to show me
All that I've been missing much too long

And like a warm and tender wind,
Im spellbound as I breathe you in
And I know that you can see

Chorus

You and I could spend forever
Making up for time together

Pull me in and dont you fight it
You and I, yeah , we're both inside it

Make my broken heart reborn
Take me over like a raging storm

Say goodbye, time to surrender
Follow me to the edge of forever

TO WHERE YOU ARE

TO WHERE YOU ARE


Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen
As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are mine
Forever love
Watching me from up above
And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave
Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
I know you're there
A breath away's not far

TOO EARLY TO BE OVER

TOO EARLY TO BE OVER


With another day, another life slips away
And floats above the crowd
You can only stay ahead of time
When time co-operates instead of heading south.

Cards are dealt, you play what you hold
You can't tell me the story's been told

It's too early to be over
And it's way past when
It could be starting again
It's too early to be over
Good hearted Joe is the last one to know

Run down, run around biting my tongue
Hardly my sad tale
But the rolling in and steppin' out
Nothing but fun, I finally had to bail

Nothing worse than trying too hard
This ain't this fool's first walk in the park

It's too early to be over
I don't feel a thing from the bone to the skin
It's too early to be over
Good hearted Joe is the last one to know

Somewhere out there it all evens out
So they would have you believe
But that don't get me
That won't set me free

It's too early to be over
And it's way past when it could be starting over
It's too early to be over
Always the fave but I already gave

It's too early to be over
Don't feel a thing from the bone to the skin
It's too early to be over

TOO LATE TO SAY GOODBYE

TOO LATE TO SAY GOODBYE


What I had to flaunt
has come back to haunt
like a restless wind
And the best of times
that were left behind
they come blowing in

No one's pushing me
through that door
But it might as well be
a forty-four in the night

It's too late to say goodbye
I'm all out of lies
It's too late to say goodbye

How can I resist
one more stranger's kiss?
Should the thrill be gone?
And if I must refrain
will I wind up the same
as the jealous dogs?

From this day forward
could be too long
But crossing the border
would be so wrong
and you're right

It's too late to say goodbye
I've run out of lies
And it's too late to say goodbye

I know that you're right
It's too late to say goodbye
I'm all out of lies
It's too late to say goodbye
This feeling won't die
It's too late to say goodbye
I can't watch you cry
It's too late to say goodbye

TOUCH OF HEAVEN

TOUCH OF HEAVEN


Just a touch of heaven

Your eyes burn through me
Oh, like a raging fire
I fall blissfully everytime you say
Just one little word
You know it makes me crazy

You ask way too much, oh, when you say
That I can look but do not touch
I have never wanted any other girl
The way I want you, baby

I surrender to what I can't control
Drunk with desire, I've opened up my soul

You know I would go around the world
I'd take you anywhere
Oh, baby, anywhere
For a touch of heaven

Tell me what you want
I'll give you anything
Oh, baby, everything
For a touch of heaven

I have dreamed of this
Your body next to mine
Drowning in every kiss
How I've longed to find my one and only girl
And I found her in you, baby

All I ever wanted is everything that you are
Don't leave me longing, be tender with my heart

You know I would go around the world
I'd take you anywhere
Oh, baby, anywhere
For a touch of heaven

Tell me what you want
I'll give you anything
Oh, baby, everything
For a touch of heaven

Everyone says you've been leading me on
Too late for warnings, I'm already gone

I surrender to what I can't control
Drunk with desire, I'm giving you my soul

You know I would go around the world
I'd take you anywhere
Oh, baby, anywhere
For a touch of heaven

Tell me what you want
I'll give you anything
Oh, baby, everything
For a touch of heaven

I would go around the world
I'd take you anywhere
Oh, baby, anywhere
For a touch of heaven

Tell me what you want
I'll give you anything
Oh, baby, everything
For a touch of heaven

See, yeah, yeah, yeah
See, yeah, yeah, yeah
Just a touch
Just a touch of heaven

TURN OFF THE NIGHT

TURN OFF THE NIGHT


I think about you every time
I take a breath and then I let it go
I remember when you were mine
But you are just a dream I use to hold
Now there's no sleep cuz every start is lading upon of these memories
Knowing how much I still want it
I let me, I pray in dark
Cuz if goes mean somehow I'll be alright
If could just turn off the night

UNTIL I FIND YOU AGAIN

UNTIL I FIND YOU AGAIN


"Lately I've been trying,
To fill up my days since you're gone
The speed of love is blinding
And I didn't know how to hold on
My mind won't clear

I'm out of tears
My heart's got no room left inside
How many dreams will end
How long can I pretend
How many times will love pass me by
Until I find you again
Well the arms of hope surround me
Will time be a fair weather friend
Should I call out to angels
Or just drink myself sober again
Can't hide is true
I still burn for you
Your memory just won't let me go

How many dreams will end
How long can I pretend
How many times will love pass me by
Until I find you again

I'd hold you tighter
Closer than ever before
Yeah...
No flame would burn brighter

If I could touch you once more
Hold you once more

How many dreams will end
How long can I pretend
How many times will love pass me by
Until I find you again
Until I find you
Again "

WAIT FOR THE SUNRISE

WAIT FOR THE SUNRISE


I was born an only son
Didn't take to the rules, like a normal child
Prisoner of the things I've done
It's the price you pay livin' fast and wild

I've spent too many nights lookin' over my shoulder
And the ways of the world make a heart grow colder
Got nowhere left to hide
The fight in me has died
So I must wait for the sunrise

Friend to fear and loaded gun
Live life like the owner of a heart of stone
No one touches, touch no one
But the road gets weary when you're all alone

I've spent too many nights lookin' over my shoulder
And the ways of the world make a heart grow colder
Got nowhere left to hide
The fight in me has died
So I must wait for the sunrise

Too much done to undo
No one I can run to
I need one more chance to live my life again
Live my life again
Again

I've spent too many nights lookin' over my shoulder
And the ways of the world make a heart grow colder
Got nowhere left to hide
The fight in me has died
So I must wait for the sunrise

I've spent too many nights lookin' over my shoulder
And the ways of the world make a heart grow colder
Got nowhere left to hide
The fight in me has died
So I must wait for the sunrise

WAITING ON YOUR LOVE

WAITING ON YOUR LOVE


How long is it s'posed to take
Which song got the answer straight
I thought, I sang 'em all

What face am I gonna make
Which leg to, I have to break
To know, I took the fall

It's like I'm standing on the edge of madness
Save me from crossing that line
Sure that I'll never come back

With the dawn, life goes on
How long can I keep waiting on your love
Hold my breath, give me strength
How long can I keep holding on?
How long can I keep waiting on your love?

True love is a funny thing
Too much for a diamond ring
To guarantee applause

Too late when you have to guess
Which joke's taken as tenderness
Penny for your thoughts

Just like I'm hanging off the edge of madness
Stop me from falling so far
How can you let me let go

With the dawn, life goes on
How long can I keep waiting on your love
Hold my breath, give me strength
How long can I keep holding on?
How long can I keep waiting on your love?

I keep every moment frozen in time
And if they're all I get
I'll be cold the rest of my life

With the dawn, life goes on
How long can I keep waiting on your love
Hold my breath, give me strength
How long can I keep holding on?
