Don’t Take Forever
Hey, you know that I’d do anything for you
I wanna be there now to do it right, it’s true
I want my heart to show you where I’m comin’ from
And then you’ll see what I’ve been feeling all along
Won’t you smile at me and give me just a taste?
Baby don’t you let what I’ve got go to waste
Just don’t take forever
‘cause I don’t want a future without you
Just don’t take forever
It’s your arms that I want to run into
Nothin’ makes much sense until you touch my hand
Then my world lights up and I can understand
Don’t you see you’ve got a power over me
And with a kind word I’m as helpless as can be
If it’s love hey, then it’s somethin’ I won’t fight
Just as long as you say everything’s alright
Just don’t take forever
‘cause I don’t want a future without you
Just don’t take forever
It’s your arms that I want to run into
Hey, you gave me wings and showed me how to fly
I just need your love to open up the sky
Just don’t take forever
‘cause I don’t want a future without you
Just don’t take forever
It’s your arms that I want to run into
Just don’t take forever
‘cause I don’t want a future without you
Just don’t take forever
It’s your arms that I want to run into

You've Got the Wheel
There's no way, no way 'round it
No escaping, no doubt about it
I can't stop this, I've lost control
Hold tight baby, don't let go
You've got the wheel
We're goin' over the edge
You've got the wheel
I think I'm losin' my head
Steer me straight, oh don't look back
I'm right here yeah, just stay on track
Move in closer, oh check your speed
Your direction is where I wanna be
You've got the wheel
We're goin' over the edge
You've got the wheel
I think I'm losin' my head
You've got the wheel
Don't let it fall apart
You've got the wheel
Just hang on to my heart
Tell me you know the way
Just show me where I am
I need to know we've got it right

Crazy Life
It’s comin’ any day now
I feel it gettin’ near
This life’s about to change now
Got to embrace the fear
You won’t see it in a headline
They don’t write it on the walls
Yeah, this life’s about to turn around
It happens to us all
Let this birthday pass on by
Somehow that makes it better
One less tear that I’ll have to cry
Got to get stronger as the days go by
Will I get older, wiser
Or shorter and wider?
Will I care if my hair gets thin?
I’ll be a happy chappie
Not terminally snappy
And someday when I’m older I’ll say
What a crazy life it’s been
I ran into an old friend
I hadn’t seen for years
He told the story of his crazy life
As he wiped away the tears
Thought I’d never see you again
But this world is such a small place
And it’s so good to see you here my friend
Did you get stronger, is it written on your face?
Did you get older, wiser
Not shorter and wider?
Did you care when your hair got thin?
Are you a happy chappie
Not terminally snappy
And these days now I’m older I say
What a crazy…….to Bridge
Life it’s been
All the people that you meet
And the places that you’ve seen
Those same old lines we spin
Like, “How you doin’ my old friend?
Do you remember when…?”
Did you get older, wiser
Or shorter and wider
Did you care when your hair got thin?
Are you a happy chappie
Not terminally snappy
These days when I’m older I say
Will I get older, wiser
Or shorter and wider?
Will I care if my hair gets thin?
I’ll be a happy chappie
Not terminally snappy
And someday when I’m older I’ll say
Someday when I’m older I’ll say
What a crazy life it’s been

Taxi
I just need to lay my troubles down
They follow me and chill me to the bone
Raindrops running slowly down my window
Slipping off to somewhere I can’t go
Taxi, just take me anywhere
You choose, hey, I don’t care, I’m done with here
Taxi stop and pick me up tonight
Take me somewhere safe and warm and quiet
The hourglass of my hope’s running out
My heart and soul abandoned me tonight
Taxi, just take me anywhere
You choose, hey, I don’t care, I’m done with here
Taxi, just take me outta here
Drive me through the night to anywhere
Seems like I could sit back here all night
Staring into shadows of nowhere
The Never Never’s callin’ me outside
‘cause nothin’ starts and nothin’ ends out there
Taxi, just take me anywhere
You choose, hey, I don’t care, I’m done with here
Taxi, just take me outta here
Drive me through the night to anywhere

Love Takes A Fall
Time has a way to get you believing
Day after day passes by
Next thing you know she's leaving
Up 'til right now there's been no good reason
To think things were wrong here
Says she don't belong here
Looks like she's seeing the end of the road
And a heart beats alone in your room now
Pretending you've got things to do
While you wait for her call
And one life seems to break into pieces
Fragments of hope hit the ground after love takes a fall
After love takes a fall
Nothing you say will change her mind now
You swear she's misunderstood you
Some way, somehow
Late in the night, as you wrestle with reason
The things that you didn't do, things that weren’t said
Whisper gently from her side of the bed
And a heart beats alone in your room now
Pretending you've got things to do
While you wait for her call
And one life seems to break into pieces
Fragments of hope hit the ground after love takes a fall
After love takes a fall
And that feeling that she's gone forever
Fills the night time now you're not together

Can You Hear It?

Can You Hear It?
Are you with him or on your own now?
Do you shiver at his touch?
Are your mornings soft and easy?
Do you cry out his name as much?
Guess I’m just the wreckage you need to forget
Now it seems I’m just one more regret
Can you hear it?
That’s the sound of how a heart breaks
Can you hear it?
That’s the sound that lovin’ you makes
Did I ever really matter?
Did I live inside your heart?
Were the things you said just chatter?
Just when did the lyin’ start?
And if I didn’t matter then why should I now?
But I’m just a fool ‘cause I still hope somehow
Can you hear it?
That’s the sound of how a heart breaks
Can you hear it?
That’s the sound that lovin’ you makes
All the times I was waiting
Alone in the dark
All that time
He was stealing your heart

Café of Tears
It always seems like there’s no sun
When someone breaks your heart
It’s like the daylight refuses to show
While your world falls apart
That’s how it seemed when we sat there that day
One resolute, one in fear
She drank her hot chocolate and love drained away
In the Café of Tears
I tried to reach her with the fun of the past
But there was really no use
The sandy beaches, the picture show nights
Were just re-runs of old news
I tried to kid myself, tried to be bold
Nothing’s going wrong here
But my coffee grew cold
As I watched the great fall of romance
In the Café of Tears
And as she smiled I just sat there
The day turned a storm cloud grey
I watched in slow motion the waiter appear
Did he know that I’d already paid?
There are still times when I go by there
The last not so long ago
And I saw a couple at the same table
And the afternoon sun sank so low
That’s how we must have looked
So tense and grim
Nothing seemed very clear
Now she’s put her cup down and all hope’s left him
In the Café of Tears

Gotta Be Love
When the night comes down
And there’s no one around
You know this world can be a lonely place
Just a picture on the wall
Of the one that I adore
Brings a smile to my face
I could be the one you love so much
Calling out my name
Swim the deepest ocean
Walk on fire
And I won’t feel no pain
I got you to blame
It’s gotta be love wo-oh
I feel it grow
When you love someone
It always feels that way
Never let go wo-oh
I need you so
When you love someone
You give your heart away
Wake up, middle of the night
These things ain’t goin’ right
Crazy things in my head
Can’t eat, can’t sleep
Got myself in way too deep
I can’t wait to see you again
This could be the start of something so strong
Coming down my way
Climb the highest mountain
Brave the storm
And I won’t feel no pain
‘cause I got you to blame
