Heart So Cold

Hum me his laugh and his kind embrace
Hum me the care written on his face
Hum me away from his final days
Oh, he lives on
Oh, he lives on
And the story never ends
And the story never ends
Hum me a sorrow of new and old
Hum me a need and a wish untold
Hum me away from my heart so cold
Oh, he lives on
Oh, he lives on
And the story never ends
And the story never ends

Silences

Hear me
Your attention flies so easily
Every new and shiny thing will catch you
A pause will cause your mind to drift
Time must be filled
Everything's fine on the surface
Listen in the silences
Will you stay?
In the awkwardness
of what I didn't say
Listen in the silences
Sorry
I don't mean to push your love away
Maybe I've been hoping for a hero
I know I ask too much of you
You need me too
Everything's fine on the surface
Listen in the silences
Will you stay?
In the awkwardness
Of what I didn't say
Listen in the silences
When my laugh sounds a little wrong
When the moment lasts a little too long
Listen in the silences
Will you stay?
In the awkwardness
Of what I didn't say
Listen in the silences
Hear me
In the silence I will be

Useless Ending

Just a useless ending
To a useless day
Another night pretending
Another useless stay
I took a chance and paid the price
It was a fateful roll of dice
I keep the sunlight waiting
To shield me from your eyes
Just a useless ending
To a useless day
Another light is fading
With fairies on their way
While magic dusk is in the air
I never venture very near
The source of my complaining
A love who couldn't care
I'm a useless ending
Never was begun
I stayed beyond the shadows
While hiding in the sun
And never had the nerve to say
I didn't need you anyway
I hang on to the stillness
While night is on delay

Dry in the Sun

Mama went and got a dog
His name is Teddy Bichon
Just a white and fuzzy face
That doggy loves everyone
He's a gentlemanly dog
Except to kitty next door
He can dance and he can sit
And he can roll on the floor
And I cannot help admiring
How he gets on in life
If he falls into the water
He just pulls himself out
And like the dog is happy
With his food and his fun
I'm gonna shake off this water
And dry in the sun
I'm gonna shake off this water
And dry in the sun
Teddy went and got a friend
His name is Oscar The Great
Loves to bark at passers-by
Sometimes before the day breaks
They live happily apart
But seem at ease when they meet
How I wish that could be us
I wouldn't miss you like this
When you left me I was drowning
In self-pity and fear
Didn't want to carry on
My only friend didn't care
But like the dog is happy
With his food and his fun
I'm gonna shake off this water
And dry in the sun
I'm gonna shake off this water
And dry in the sun
Now I know that every dog will have its day
Now I know about the silly games we play
I could change my point of view or try to hide
I could close my heart or keep it open wide
Mama went and got a dog
His name is Teddy Bichon
Just a white and fuzzy face
But he's the wisest I've known
And like the dog is happy
With his food and his fun
I'm gonna shake off this water
And dry in the sun
I'm gonna shake off this water

Again
03:23
|

|
Because of hope I am again
So breathless pondering the same
Ideas you had but never shared
That simmered far below instead
Without the knowledge from your lips
I hastily imagine this
Your secret love for me is true
Or feelings have abandoned you
They're hot and cold or black and white
My daydreams lack a compromise
And signs are easily misread
Especially when hope is dead
A prison break of birds in flight
Despite the coldness of the night
My frozen heart remembers you
And spring returns and all is new
