Cartwheel Queen

City lights

Darling you're talking

In a language I don't speak

Slowly we're walking

With the air under out feet

And I try to be

Someone that you can recognise

I try to be

The light that's shining in your eyes

Heading for nowhere

Just as far as I can see

We walk over bridges

Though the shadows of the street

And I try to be

Someone that you can follow home

I try to be

Someone that you can't leave alone

Take a walk with me out into the city night

Watch the light of the sun unfold

Wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right

Would you'll ever be mine to hold

I feel your eyes that read me like a satellite

Sending images to my soul and it's right

But I lose you to the city lights

Darling you're talking

In a language I don't speak

Slowly we're walking

With the air under our feet

And I try to be

Someone that you can follow home

I try to be

Someone that you can't leave alone

Take a walk with me out into the city night

Watch the light of the sun unfold

Wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right

Would you'll ever be mine to hold

I feel your eyes that read me like a satellite

Sending images to my soul and it's right

But I lose you to the city lights

I lose you to the city lights

I lose you to the city lights

I lose you to the city lights yeah

Take a walk with me out into the city night

Watch the light of the sun unfold

Wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right

Would you'll ever be mine to hold

I feel your eyes that read me like a satellite

Sending images to my soul and it's rightbut

I lose you to the city lights

Cartwheel queen

It takes one word to make it

And one word to break it

So bind it all together with love

And it takes one look in your eyes

And that kiss at midnight

With silver peppered skies up above

So I'm gonna take you out dancin'

Out in the road dear

We'll dance until we're stood here alone

And although you've got me thinkin'

Well, now's not the time dear

Let's sink another one for the road

Won't you forgive me if I'm talkin' out of line

But how can I forget

Eyes such as yours in front of mine?

I've been listening to you talkin' in your sleep

Hoping I might hear all of the secrets you keep

But your teeth they grind yeh

Gabrielle's my cartwheel queen

Cheap half price roe

Girl what do you say?

Let's spend another night by the sea

I tell a joke on the tramline

But ya run down the punchline

And that's the way it happens for me

Won't you forgive me if I'm walkin' out of line

But how can I forget

Eyes such as yours in front of mine?

I've been listening you talkin' in your sleep

Hoping I might hear all of the secrets you keep

But your teeth they grind yeah

Gabrielle's my cartwheel queen

Maybe I'll need you, maybe I'll leave you

But it doesn't matter

This was enough for me

So I'll let you know girl before you go

That it takes...

One word to make it

And one word to break it

So bind it all together with love

And it takes one look in yours eyes

And that kiss at midnight

With silver peppered skies up above

Well gabrielle's my cartwheel queen... Hey!

Two hearts

You'll remember me

Though the memories in your mind

And all your eyes will see

Is just what you left behind

Now I've been tossing and turning

And my heart's burning emotions in my bones

But I'm tryna make sense of the way that it ends

When you tell me you're not coming home

'Cause baby when two hearts beat

Followed by eyes that meet

And the souls in the hurry

That gets close to what they've found

And all of this loneliness

Causes my eyes to miss

What is there right in front of me

Now there's nothing left to find

But I know you'll find somewhere along the line

Love is easy; love is blind.

Now I turn my face away

'Cause there's nothing left to see

And I know that you've never cared anyway

For the love inside of me

But now the longer I take

Well the harder it makes it

For me stepping out on my own

And I'm tryna make sense of the way that it ends

When you tell me you're not coming home

Love is easy; love is blind

Love is easy; love is blind

Love is easy; love is blind

Love is easy; love is blind

Fireflies

You held my head and made it strong

Open my mind and turn it on

Out of the street that I belong

You keep it safe for me

Your broken words are never clear

You turn my loving into fear

And over the voices that I hear

You're calling out for me

Tears fall oh but your eyes don't cry for me

Words call out of the places I can't reach

So move on over the pieces left for me

'Cause these emotions that are drowning your eyes

These emotions that are drowning your eyes

I tried to look out for the sparks

Shootin' bullets in the dark

Before the love that's in my heart

Comes pouring out of me

Tears fall oh but your eyes don't cry for me

Words call out of the places I can't reach

So move on over the pieces left of me

'Cause these emotions that are drowning your eyes

These emotions that are drowning your eyes

Ay ay ay ah ah

Ay ay ay ah ah

Ay ay ay ah ah

Maybe all I've ever said

Are things that I'll always regret

So now my love it stands alone

You held my head and made it strong

Open my mind and turn it on

Tears fall oh but your eyes don't cry for me

Words call out of the places I can't reach

So move on over the pieces left of me

'Cause these emotions that are drowning your eyes

These emotions that are drowning your eyes

These emotions that are drowning your eyes

(Shooting around like fireflies)

These emotions that are drowning your eyes

(Shooting around like fireflies)

These emotions emotions emotions emotions yeah

(Shooting around like fireflies)...

Arwen

I'll always love you baby

Take a look in my eyes

And hopefully you'll realise

I still think about you

Almost every day

And I've just gotta say

That these days I'm up and I'm down

I need to keep my feet on the ground

'Cause I know that I'll be leaving this time

One day

And then I'll turn and say

I've got to go now, the world is waiting for me

I need to find out if there's someone I can be

Let's say for now girl, at least until we meet again

Arwen you'll be my best friend

Remember when I met you?

Out if your garden alone

Exploring things unknown

You took me to the seaside

In a fiesta you owned

You were mine, mine, mind

But now these days I'm up and I'm down

I need to keep my feet on the ground

'Cause I know that I'll be leaving this time

And then you'll fly away

And then I'll turn and say

I've got to go now, the world is waiting for me

I need to find out if there's someone I can be

Let's say for now girl, at least until we meet again

Arwen you'll be my best friend

For a while

'Till I return

And I see your sweet, sweet smile, yeah

I've got to go now, the world is waiting for me

I need to find out if there's someone I can be

Let's say for now girl, at least until we meet again

Arwen you'll be my best friend

Arwen you'll be my best friend

At least until we meet again

Arwen, you'll be my best friend

How it ends

Another stormy sunday

Raindrops on my heart

I don't need my eyes closed to be in the dark

I can feel you coming a little closer

Your footsteps on the ground

And I don't need to feel you to know where you are

'Cause I can feel you walkin' next to me

Hear your footsteps on the ground

And I know that's the way it's gonna be keep you around

Let's just be lovers

Let's not be friends

Keep it under the covers

And baby that's where it ends

And if my heart it breaks

Well that won't make no difference at all

Another crowded city

There's nowhere left to roam

And I can see your lights on I know that you're home

And I can feel you walkin' next to me

Through I know that you're not there

And I know that that's the way its gonna be to show me you care

Yeah

Let's just be lovers

Oh darlin' let's not be friends

Keep it under the covers covers covers

And know that that's how it ends

And if my heard should break

Well that won't make no difference at all...

(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)

All the while I keep waitin'

For you to take what you need

And I try to smile but it's too much

You got me down on my knees

You take so long to even notice

Just what is going on

Tried to be strong and come back home

Come back home yeah yeah yeah yeah!

My sweet darling, my sweet sweet sweet darling

My sweet darling, my sweet darling

That's what I say

Let's just be lovers

Oh darlin' let's not be friends

And if my heart it breaks

Won't make difference at all

Another stormy sunday

Raindrops on my hearts

Now I don't need my eyes closed to be in the dark
