Here I Am

Open up your eyes
I’m standing right beside you
Don’t you realise that I’m there?
This room was built for two
I’m painting you a picture
That we could have been anywhere
I’m letting you know that I care
I’m not gonna let you forget me
I don’t wanna leave this to chance
And regret
I haven’t lost my mind
I’m looking to the future
We could have got there sooner
If we tried
We didn’t miss a beat
I tried my best to reach you
But then you drifted on, unaware
I’m letting you know that I care
I’m not gonna let you forget me
I don’t wanna leave this to chance
And regret
It’s time to take control
I’m dancing in the fire
I’ve heard you like a trier
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am

Feels like I’m dreaming
And I can’t wake
Feels like we’re living
In a world that’s full of hate
We may be hurting
But things can change
They’ve got the numbers
That we need to rearrange...
…In a logical order
The pattern’s on the wall
I thought I heard you
Calling me...
Maybe I’m hearing things
But you can hear them too
Maybe I’m hearing things
But you can hear them too
Feels like I’m sinking
Under a wave
I don’t like fighting
But it’s better to be brave…
…Through all of this disorder
The sky above will fall
I thought I heard you
Calling me...
Maybe I’m hearing things
But you can hear them too
Maybe I’m hearing things
But you can hear them too
We’re flying underwater
Connecting space and time
I thought I saw you
Shining through...
Maybe I’m seeing things
And you can see them too
Maybe I’m hearing things
But you can hear them too
Feels like we’ve both been-
Stood here before
Feels like I’m hearing things
Of that, I can be sure

It’s no use wishing on a rain cloud
You should be looking to a star
When it comes to it
You’ve got to follow my advice
When it comes to it
You don’t think twice
And when you’re waiting for tomorrow
You could be living for today
When it comes to it
You’ve got to open up your mind
If you look for it
Then you will find
When I tried telling you that all the signs were there
You didn’t listen, but you lived your life with care
If you had a choice
Would you believe me when I say-
“Every mountain points a different way”?
These are the lessons you’ve been learning
So don’t repeat the same mistakes
And though you recognise their faces
You don’t expect a warm embrace
When I tried telling you that all the signs were there
You didn’t listen, but you lived your life with care
And you may never be the one I thought you were
But something’s telling me you get what you deserve
If you had a choice
Would you believe me when I say-
“Every mountain points a different way”?
When it comes to it
You’ve got to follow my advice
When it comes to it
You don’t think twice
When it comes to it
You’ve got to open up your mind
If you look for it
Then you will find
When you feel alone, why don’t you say-
“There’s a feeling that I can’t explain
And it aches me to my bones
Then it breaks my heart in two”?
When you’re feeling like you can’t go on
Won’t you tell me that you need someone-
Who can take you by the hand-
If the black dog barks again?
This is a story of forgotten friends
If you’re thinking that it don’t make sense

The Good Times
04:02

When it feels like things are slipping away
Remember
The good times are here to stay
I hope it isn’t too late, to reach you now
The lights are fading out
It’s a fine line that you’ve been walking along
Just trying to find out where you belong
When you were coming on strong
I told you that
I’m never going…
…Back to the water’s edge
Chasing better days
When all I needed was a friendly face
Thoughts are running through my head
Since you flew away
To a place where you belong
There’s a bright light that I’ve been following round
If ever you need me
I’m on your tail
You’ve had your head in a cloud, for far too long
Tomorrow you’ll be…
…Gone with the summer breeze
Flowing through your hair
Thank you for showing me you care
You’re falling like the autumn leaves
Scattered everywhere
Till the feeling moves you on
When it feels like things are slipping away
Remember
The good times are here to stay
I hope it isn’t too late, to reach you now
The lights are fading out

Where Darkness Hides
03:32

It’s the feelings that I’m showing
It’s the knowing that you care
See the rain against my window
Then you’ll understand my pain
We both know it’s true
You’re taking sides
But I’m asking you to wait
When the darkness hides
Where darkness hides
When your atoms are colliding
Mine align into a row
There’s a reason why we landed
And we’re stranded in this time
We both know it’s true
You’re taking sides
But I’m asking you to wait
When the darkness hides
Where darkness hides
Now we’re running round in circles
Jumping hurdles in my mind
But we can’t escape the shadows of love
We both know it’s true
You’re taking sides
But I’m asking you to wait
When the darkness hides
Where darkness hides

A Fond Farewell
04:06

A morning comes
Shining through your window
The sound of drums
Knocking at your door
Every day
We’ve got to chase the demons all away
I heard a voice
Coming out of nowhere
I made my choice
To give me peace of mind
Every day
We’ve got to chase the demons all away
Day by day
We’re dreaming of the one that got away
Day by day
We’re dreaming of the one that got away
Every day
We’ve got to chase the demons all away
Day by day
We’re dreaming of the one that got away
Time will tell
If we’re gonna make it
A fond farewell
Doesn’t mean goodbye
Every day
We’ve got to chase the demons all away
Day by day
We’re dreaming of the one that got away
Day by day
We’re dreaming of the one that got away
Time will tell
A fond farewell
Time will tell
A fond farewell
Give me something to say
Give me something to think about again
Give me something to dream about
Time will tell
Give me something to say
Give me something to talk about again
Give me something to dream about
Time will tell
A fond farewell
