1. Without love
Think of me like I think about you
Give me a sign show me you care
Am I so far away in your thoughts not there forget what
You told me it's what didn't get said it's not much
To ask come down off your cloud and with your
Feet on the ground say something out loud
Without love I mean nothing to you
Without love broken in two
Without love give me some value some worth
Wwithout love no life left on earth
Blame it on work buy me some flowers
Empty gestures wile away the hours
Promises promises sealed with a kiss
Please acknowledge it's me that you miss
No message received excuses believed
You hurt me so much I'll never recover
Takes time to discover a love like no other
Without love I mean nothing to you
Without love broken in two
Without love give me some value some worth
Without love no life left on earth
Without love I mean nothing to you
Without love without love I mean nothing to you
Without love
I mean nothing.I mean nothing I mean nothing nothing to you
And I'm broken I'm broken broken in two .
I mean nothing...
Give me a sign show me you care
Am I so far away in your thoughts not there forget what
You told me it's what didn't get said it's not much
To ask come down off your cloud and with your
Feet on the ground say something out loud
Without love I mean nothing to you
Without love broken in two
Without love give me some value some worth
Wwithout love no life left on earth
Blame it on work buy me some flowers
Empty gestures wile away the hours
Promises promises sealed with a kiss
Please acknowledge it's me that you miss
No message received excuses believed
You hurt me so much I'll never recover
Takes time to discover a love like no other
Without love I mean nothing to you
Without love broken in two
Without love give me some value some worth
Without love no life left on earth
Without love I mean nothing to you
Without love without love I mean nothing to you
Without love
I mean nothing.I mean nothing I mean nothing nothing to you
And I'm broken I'm broken broken in two .
I mean nothing...

3. I love you always forever
Feels like I'm standing in a timeless dream of light mists of pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Touching discovering you.
Those days of warm rains come rushing back to me
Miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared in the heat of the afternoon
Out of the stillness soft spoken words.
Say say it again
chorus : (x 2)
I love you always forever near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you everything I will do for you
You've got the most unbelievable blue eyes I've ever seen
You've got me almost melting away as we lay there under blue sky
With pure white stars exotic sweetness a magical time
Say say it again
chorus (x 2)
Say you'll love love me forever never stop never
Whatever near and far and always
And everywhere and everything
Say you'll love love me forever never stop never
Whatever near and far and always
And everywhere and everything
Say you'll love love me forever never stop never
Whatever near and far and always
And everywhere and everything
Say you'll love love me forever never stop never
Whatever near and far and always
And everywhere and everything
I love you always forever near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you everything I will do for you
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Touching discovering you.
Those days of warm rains come rushing back to me
Miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared in the heat of the afternoon
Out of the stillness soft spoken words.

Everywhere I will be with you everything I will do for you

Say you'll love love me forever never stop never
Whatever near and far and always
And everywhere and everything
I love you always forever near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you everything I will do for you
4. Nothing ever changes
Standing in isolation
Roadless wilderness faded and
Discarded the last leaves gone.
Gone and let me tell you
Nothing ever changes nothing ever changes
Farewell to my first love
Farewell for all time pleasure for the loving
There they lie eye to eye
Nothing ever changes nothing ever changes
Lay down let it break down the hidden tortures to an end...
Nothing ever changes (x 3)
Roadless wilderness faded and
Discarded the last leaves gone.
Gone and let me tell you
Nothing ever changes nothing ever changes
Farewell to my first love
Farewell for all time pleasure for the loving
There they lie eye to eye
Nothing ever changes nothing ever changes
Lay down let it break down the hidden tortures to an end...
Nothing ever changes (x 3)
5. Simone
Don't look back now don't look back over
Years gone by they're gone and now it's time to live
Don't look back now you have to let your childhood go and then you'll find a peace within
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
Don't be afraid you have so many choices hold your head up high and say goodbye
No second thoughts you have a future waiting take my hand and I will show the way
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
Years gone by they're gone and now it's time to live
Don't look back now you have to let your childhood go and then you'll find a peace within
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
Don't be afraid you have so many choices hold your head up high and say goodbye
No second thoughts you have a future waiting take my hand and I will show the way
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep
And you will free your mind to sleep
And you will free yourself to weep

7. Agenais
As I sit with the sun falling over
The hayfields by the river a little hand reached out
And touched me and stole my heart away
And I followed into a labyrinth of gold and rose red colour
And then I heard such beautiful voices calling out to me to go
Floating down floating down, floating down to Agenais
And we'll go floating down floating down
Floating down to Agenais
And there it was lit by a blue flame a gold and crystal palace
And they were dancing in long silver veils and white lilies in their hair and then we Rose above in the moonlight to watch the city sleeping and this beautiful magical Place I know longer want to leave.
We'll go floating down floating down, floating down to Agenais
And we'll go floating down floating
Down floating down to Agenais
Leaving it all to behind promises of the wild
They say come little sister come with us and let's fly
We'll go floating down floating down, floating down to Agenais
And we'll go floating down floating down
Floating floating away
And I'm floating floating floating
Floating away... and I'm floating down...
The hayfields by the river a little hand reached out
And touched me and stole my heart away
And I followed into a labyrinth of gold and rose red colour
And then I heard such beautiful voices calling out to me to go
Floating down floating down, floating down to Agenais
And we'll go floating down floating down
Floating down to Agenais
And there it was lit by a blue flame a gold and crystal palace
And they were dancing in long silver veils and white lilies in their hair and then we Rose above in the moonlight to watch the city sleeping and this beautiful magical Place I know longer want to leave.
We'll go floating down floating down, floating down to Agenais
And we'll go floating down floating
Down floating down to Agenais
Leaving it all to behind promises of the wild
They say come little sister come with us and let's fly
We'll go floating down floating down, floating down to Agenais
And we'll go floating down floating down
Floating floating away
And I'm floating floating floating
Floating away... and I'm floating down...
8. Fools paradise
Manipulated romance pretty speeches in the dark
Banging on your big drum
You captivate their hearts
But underneath the mask is a man of straw
A master of excuses closing every door
I don't wanna hear your name
I don't wanna feel your pain
I don't have to play your game
I'm stronger things have changed
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise
Fools paradise
Your poetic inspiration is a work of art
But your obsession with the glory rules a self-centred heart accumulative hatred Living in fear
And when the bitterness is over another victim reappears.
So I don't wanna hear your name I don't wanna feel your pain
I don't have to play your game
I'm stronger things have changed
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise
Fools paradise
I don't wanna hear your name I don't wanna feel your pain
(I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise)
I don't wanna hear your name I don't wanna feel your pain
(I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise)
Banging on your big drum
You captivate their hearts
But underneath the mask is a man of straw
A master of excuses closing every door
I don't wanna hear your name
I don't wanna feel your pain
I don't have to play your game
I'm stronger things have changed
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise
Fools paradise
Your poetic inspiration is a work of art
But your obsession with the glory rules a self-centred heart accumulative hatred Living in fear
And when the bitterness is over another victim reappears.
So I don't wanna hear your name I don't wanna feel your pain
I don't have to play your game
I'm stronger things have changed
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise
Fools paradise
I don't wanna hear your name I don't wanna feel your pain
(I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise)
I don't wanna hear your name I don't wanna feel your pain
(I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise)
9. Lights of life
Remains lay smoking crawling little by little
I can hardly breathe unprotected
Exposed to the numbing conditions
I feel no pain
Falling in the snow dazed and confused
Paralysed with fear
Huddled together for warmth in the trees
Where are the lights
Where is help
Only the silence
Oh oh help me
Still the sky was empty
Freezing fog descended and the snow begins to fall
Silence was an enemy more hated than the cold
So we whispered stories to help us forget .
Then out of the sky came the lights
Two tiny lights I wanted to kiss the earth and the stars
No cruel mirage a distant visage the silence had broken
Out of the sky came the lights out of the night
Out of the fear came the strength strength to live out of the sky
Came the tights lights of life
Out of the fear came the strength strength to live
Out of the sky came the lights lights of life .
'It was my birthday the day they found
Me now I am one week old my
Life from this moment begins again' .
Out of the sky came the lights
Out of the night out of the fear came
The strength strength to live, live to love
Out of the sky came the lights lights of life
Out of the fear came the strength
Strength to live, live to love strength to
Live, live to love out of the sky came the
Lights lights of life out of the fear came
The strength strength to live out of the
Sky came the lights lights of life out of
The fear came the strength strength to live
Out of the sky came the lights
I can hardly breathe unprotected
Exposed to the numbing conditions
I feel no pain
Falling in the snow dazed and confused
Paralysed with fear
Huddled together for warmth in the trees
Where are the lights
Where is help
Only the silence
Oh oh help me
Still the sky was empty
Freezing fog descended and the snow begins to fall
Silence was an enemy more hated than the cold
So we whispered stories to help us forget .
Then out of the sky came the lights
Two tiny lights I wanted to kiss the earth and the stars
No cruel mirage a distant visage the silence had broken
Out of the sky came the lights out of the night
Out of the fear came the strength strength to live out of the sky
Came the tights lights of life
Out of the fear came the strength strength to live
Out of the sky came the lights lights of life .
'It was my birthday the day they found
Me now I am one week old my
Life from this moment begins again' .
Out of the sky came the lights
Out of the night out of the fear came
The strength strength to live, live to love
Out of the sky came the lights lights of life
Out of the fear came the strength
Strength to live, live to love strength to
Live, live to love out of the sky came the
Lights lights of life out of the fear came
The strength strength to live out of the
Sky came the lights lights of life out of
The fear came the strength strength to live
Out of the sky came the lights
10. Silent world
If I could put you on top of a cake
I would ice you and keep you wrapped up in a box to be near you
If I could I would .
If I could touch you again with my fingers so gently
If I could feel you breathing in time next to me
But the silence surrounds me
Flashing memories of you riding with the moon that night
I never had the chance to say goodbye goodbye.
Lost forever lost to another world gone forever but remembered in our thoughts you are
If I could open the heavens above I'd be with you
If I could hold you again in my arms I would tell you that I love you
I would ice you and keep you wrapped up in a box to be near you
If I could I would .
If I could touch you again with my fingers so gently
If I could feel you breathing in time next to me
But the silence surrounds me
Flashing memories of you riding with the moon that night
I never had the chance to say goodbye goodbye.
Lost forever lost to another world gone forever but remembered in our thoughts you are
If I could open the heavens above I'd be with you
If I could hold you again in my arms I would tell you that I love you
