Verse: I think it’s time, to say what need be said spill these three words from my head, and make you feel it when they’re said. I hear you breathing you’re, resting on my chest my hearts pressed to your head and I don’t want this to end. Chorus: I do it all, I do it all for you, So you know that this love is true. I do it all, I do it all for you, because you’re, you’re a dream come true. Verse 2: If I look into your eyes, will they love me the same, still shine bright as day and make my hollow go away. Let’s be forever and not spend time apart because without you in my arms I’ll be freezing. Chorus: I do it all, I do it all for you, So you know that this love is true. I do it all, I do it all for you, because you’re, you’re a dream come true. Bridge: So let’s hold on for the moment and lay quietly under stars, love like the beginning right back at the start. and I won’t ever let you slip out through my fingers and out of my grasp. Chorus: I do it all, I do it all for you, So you know that this love is true. I do it all, I do it all for you, because you’re, you’re a dream come true.

Sober 03:16
Verse 1: I got home and it's late at night, i'm really, really drunk and not feeling alright. I'm trying to remember all the hours before, all the things I did and what I saw. I can't remember if I met up with you, I'm realy confused and don't know what to do, should I give you a call to see if you're alright, if we hung out earlier on tonight or should I call you and tell you the truth, let my drunk self speak say I've fallen for you cause. Pre-Chorus: I feel it's the right thing thing to do, To tell you after all this time that i've fallen for you. Chorus: If only I could speak my mind, I wouldn't get drunk time after time. If only I could speak my mind, maybe I'd call you sober tonight. Verse 2: When I start drinking I'm not thinking about the things that I'll be doing later, I'm drinking to forget about the past, change this slow night, make it go by fast. But when the booze finally reaches my blood, you're all I talk about and the feelings just flood, straight back right into my head and as the night goes on I knew I shouldn't have said. Pre-Chorus: It felt like the right thing to do, To tell you after all this time, that i've fallen for you. Chorus: If only I could speak my mind, I wouldn't get drunk time after time. If only I could speak my mind, maybe I'd call you sober tonight. Verse 3: Alcohol has impeded my visions, made me do dumb things and make poor decisions. I probably shouldn't have had the triple shots cause i'm on the floor and I'm spewing my guts. The security guards are looking after me, i'm so blind drunk more than I've ever been. I'm an embarrassment for other to be around, so they walk away and they leave me on the ground. Pre-Chorus: This was a really stupid thing to do, But now I'm blind drunk, I think i'll call you. Chorus: If only I could speak my mind, I wouldn't get drunk time after time. If only I could speak my mind, maybe I'd call you sober tonight. Tonight, Tonight.

Sun to Snow 03:52
Verse: I’ll paint a picture of you and me, Under the shade of an old oak tree, Holding each other while watching the stars, And listening to planes in the sky go past. I wonder where I’d be if I wasn’t with you, Would I be at home thinking this love through? Trying to find things in the universe, That might try to come between us. Pre-Chorus: Cause I’d hold back a storm to keep us alive, I’ll rescue you baby I need you in my live, Just so I can hold you in my arms again. Chorus: We’ll flow like a river and crash like a wave, I’ll tell you I love you and hope you feel the same, I’ll whisper in your ear some things that I know, And hold you tight, from sun through to snow. Verse: When I am with you everything is great, I give you my heart and you do the same. We forget about our problems and lay for a while, I pull you in close and feel your hand on mine. You get close to me and curl up in a ball, And I say for you that I’d do it all. Chorus: We’ll flow like a river and crash like a wave, I’ll tell you I love you and hope you feel the same, I’ll whisper in your ear some things that I know, And hold you tight, from sun through to snow. Bridge: You make holes in my lungs and it’s hard to breathe, you make my stomach churn I don’t feel at ease. Can you loosen your grip and slip away quietly, because without your love I won’t keep fighting yeah. Chorus: We’ll flow like a river and crash like a wave, I’ll tell you I love you and hope you feel the same, I’ll whisper in your ear some things that I know, And hold you tight, from sun through to snow.

Aftermath 04:31
Verse: Baby, do you remember when I first met you, It was a sunny afternoon the air was hot the sky was blue and we both were so young. We’d take more than we’d get, we would act like idiots and not let anything come between us, and when we were apart I’d feel lonely without your arms wrapped around me. Pre-Chorus: So darling let’s hold on, And darling you’re the one. And darling, do you know that I, Chorus: I would fight for you; I would die for you, Climb so high for you and build my life around you. I would lie for you, I would try to show you, that your, you’re the aftermath. Verse 2: So tell me, Is there as reason why I feel like this, And tell me is there an answer to all this madness? Cause now I’m stuck here on my own I really should have known that some things just don’t last, and the things we set in stone they’re not concrete just a hope for the future. Pre-Chorus: So darling let’s hold on, And darling you’re the one. And darling, do you know that I, Chorus: I would fight for you; I would die for you, Climb so high for you and build my life around you. I would lie for you, I would try to show you, that your, you’re the aftermath. Bridge: And I, I don’t know if our paths will meet. But I hope that in time, that you, you will see. Chorus: I would fight for you; I would die for you, Climb so high for you and build my life around you. I would lie for you, I would try to show you, that your, you’re the aftermath. (x2)

Remedy 04:00
Verse: You make me feel so right like nothing is wrong, So i'll hold on tonight and right another song. It feels so good, knowing that you care, I can finally breathe and take in some air. Pre-Chorus: and oooh ooh oh, this is something real. Yeah you ooh oh, you change how I feel. Chorus: Something was wrong with me but when you came along you were my remedy. Woah ooh ooh I may have took my time, but you're the one in my head every night. Woah ah ah oh, ah ah oh. Verse 2: I know for once, just what I have to say, I'll look into your eyes they'll convince me to stay. I see clearly now and can finally love again, Knowing that now, you're finally mine darling. Pre-Chorus: and oooh ooh oh, this is something real. Yeah you ooh oh, you change how I feel. Chorus: Something was wrong with me but when you came along you were my remedy. Woah ooh ooh I may have took my time, but you're the one in my head every night. Woah ah ah oh, ah ah oh. (x3)
6.
Verse: It’s been a while since you left here I’m need a new change, something to satisfy me somewhere to bury all my shame. And I’m looking for a light to guide me, a footstep in the rain. I’m wondering where you’ve been hiding I’m losing all my faith. Pre-Chorus: Isn’t there anyone out there, who can relate to me? Release me from my chains and set me free. Chorus: My heart is bleeding, you left without saying goodbye, Give me a good reason to stay cause I’m losing my mind. One day you’ll realise, In a darkened light. Verse: Much has happened since we stopped talking I wanna share what I’ve done. I want to tell you all the stories so I hope you don’t run. I wanna feel your warmth on my face and catch a glint of the sun, because lately I’ve been dreaming that you are the one. Pre-Chorus: You’re that someone out there, who can relate to me, release me from my chains and set me free. Chorus: My heart is bleeding, you left without saying goodbye, Give me a good reason to stay cause I’m losing my mind. One day you’ll realise, In a darkened light. Bridge: (Instrumental) Chorus: My heart is bleeding, you left without saying goodbye, Give me a good reason to stay cause I’m losing my mind. (x2)

Two Years 03:45
Verse: I can't believe that two years have gone by, I remember all the things that we did at the time. We'd talk about the things that we found real cool and tell eachothers stories from the nights before. And when we were together I'd look you in the eyes and feel my body tingling from the inside. I'd avoid telling you the words stuck in my head and think of a way in which they could be said. Pre-Chorus: But I wish that I could tell in some form or way, Just all the things that I wanted to say. Chorus: I would be there for you baby, night and day. Are you the light in the dark that gets me saved. I'm telling you the truth baby, it's not a phase. My life has taken a turn and everything has changed. Verse 2: I remember when we used to think we ran this place, we got our minds mixed up and caught in a haze. We never thought anyone could prove us wrong, but we we're just ignorant as to what went on. And that never stopped me from loving you, and all the little things that you would do. You found a way to keep me coming back for more, and wish that the time we spent wasn't gone. Pre-Chorus: But I wish that I could tell in some form or way, Just all the things that I wanted to say. Chorus: I would be there for you baby, night and day. Are you the light in the dark that gets me saved. I'm telling you the truth baby, it's not a phase. My life has taken a turn and everything has changed yeah. Bridge: I could tell you wanted the truth, but I didn't know how to tell you. So i've watched two years go by and I miss you all the time. Chorus: I would be there for you baby, night and day. Are you the light in the dark that gets me saved. I'm telling you the truth baby, it's not a phase. My life has taken a turn and everything has changed yeah.

Cold 04:00
Verse: Lately I’ve been missing you from my life, Although I always try to let go and never let my emotions show, I’m hurting from the inside out. Is it crazy, if I can hold you one last time? Cause everyday you’re out of my sights I can’t sleep properly at night, because without you I’ll be cold again. Chorus: I loved it, when you held me closer. I love it, when you watched me sleep. I loved it, when you woke me up. Verse: Baby, you’re the one I always miss. Because when a thought of you enters my mind, I start to visualise all the things we could have been. If only I had seem the problems that needed fixing, I wouldn’t be in this position right now wondering how the hell we wound up like this. Chorus: I loved it, when you held me closer. I love it, when you watched me sleep. I loved it, when you woke me up. Bridge: I know now things I said and did were wrong, I’m sorry for hurting you more than once, But believe me when I say you’re the one yeah. Chorus: I loved it, when you held me closer. I love it, when you watched me sleep. I loved it, when you woke me up.

Glue 04:02
Verse: I'll attach myself to you like glue and I wont unstick until the night is over, I'll make up fake reasons to hold you my darling. You always told me if I give it a shot and wait and see, something better may came along, but i'm finding it hard to see even hard to believe just what you meant by that. Pre-Chorus: I know some things may never change, But as long as you're with my everything will be ok. So If I decided to wait and hold on for a while, Will you still be standing here, by my side. Chorus: And you're the reason that I wake up you keep me going whether or not, the sun is shining or rather dim. And you're the reason I feel so nice, you're the most beautiful thing in my life, and I just wanna hold you. Verse 2: I'm outside and i'm freezing cold, i'm standing by myself and I'm all alone, it'd be great if you'd stop by and say hello, but I know you're working babe and that's ok so I brought myself a jumper. Trains keep on passing me by, people come and go the catch the line, all the way into the city, but I don't care because they aren't you and when I get home i'll be stuck to you like glue. Pre-Chorus: I know some things may never change, But as long as you're with my everything will be ok. So If I decided to wait and hold on for a while, Will you still be laying here, by my side. Chorus: And you're the reason that I wake up you keep me going whether or not, the sun is shining or rather dim. And you're the reason I feel so nice, you're the most beautiful thing in my life, and I just wanna hold you. Bridge (Guitar Solo) Chorus: And you're the reason that I wake up you keep me going whether or not, the sun is shining or rather dim. And you're the reason I feel so nice, you're the most beautiful thing in my life, and I just wanna hold you.
10.
Verse: And If I stay now with you, will you lay down so I can hold you. And if you come around to me, will you say that you love me. Cause I feel you on my shoulders resting In peace, am I right for you baby? Your lips made me smoulder curl up in a ball, and I'm waiting by the phone, for you to call. Chorus: So i'll see it through, till the morning when I'm with you. And I'll see it through, to be closer to you. Verse 2: And you make me weak in my knees, I stay awake no sleep. And when you run aground your feet, will lead you back to me. Cause I feel you on my shoulders sleeping In peace, am I right for you baby? Your lips made me tremble curl up in a ball, and I'm waiting by the phone, for you to call. Chorus: So i'll see it through, till the morning when I'm with you. And I'll see it through, to be closer to you. Bridge: And I'm silenced when I see you, there's nothing I can do. And Sirens keep me awake, I remember that night you stayed. Verse 3: I felt you on my shoulders resting In peace, am I right for you baby? Your lips made me smoulder curl up in a ball, and I'm waiting by the phone, for you to call. Chorus: So i'll see it through, till the morning when I'm with you. And I'll see it through, to be closer to you.

Kiss You 03:22
Verse: I don't know how i'm meant to make, these feelings I have die away. Cause when I lay here in the dark you're all I see and you always find me in my dreams. Pre-Chorus: But I can not change my fate, Knowing that now it's to late to tell you. Chorus: I meant it when I said I miss you, And I'd hold on forever to kiss you. I meant it when I said I miss you, And I'd hold on forever to kiss you. Verse 2: How do I go on when I feel grey, when weeping leaves my shirt with stains. When things I know are in disarray, a lonely room of emptiness awaits. Pre-Chorus: But hopefully I will see you again, So I can tell you for now and then. Chorus: I meant it when I said I miss you, And I'd hold on forever to kiss you. I meant it when I said I miss you, And I'd hold on forever to kiss you. Bridge: Since you've been gone its been hard to sleep, You've been strumming on my heart strings. And as time has gone on they've slowly torn, And scars that healed have opened up, just like before. Chorus: I meant it when I said I miss you, And I'd hold on forever to kiss you. I meant it when I said I miss you, And I'd hold on forever to kiss you. (x2)
