Verse 1:
The leaves are falling to the ground,
But I can’t hear them make a sound.
Bound into the earth’s deep crust,
Bound even deeper than our love.
When the rain begins to fall,
Know that we will have it all,
Never slipping,
Never fade,
Never losing our way.
Chorus:
It doesn’t matter what you think,
It doesn’t matter what you know,
Cause in the end your fate decides,
How it all will go.
Verse 2:
Lost inside a rainy day,
Thoughts are slipping their way,
Inside my head I’m filled with numb,
My thoughts of you are fully done.
No more hating,
No more tears,
No more fading,
No more fears,
No more love slipping away,
Now inside me it will stay.
Love is never what it seems,
It comes in forms of thoughts and dreams,
But even when you slip away,
I see tomorrow a bright day.
Chorus:
It doesn’t matter what you think,
It doesn’t matter what you know,
Cause in the end your fate decides,
How it all will go.

Verse 1:
I want to hold you in my arms,
Until the sun comes up again.
Sharing memories of our past,
While wishing this moment,
Would never end.
You're more special than you know,
And I won't let you slip away,
If your love would fade tomorrow,
I'd be catching it today.
Chorus:
Don't let go,
Of me,
And I'll make your dreams come true.
But if you let me go,
Then how will I know what it's like with you?
Can't you see,
My heart,
Is no longer with me.
It's on my sleeve,
And I am asking you,
To take it off for me.
Verse 2:
I seem to think of you a lot,
You're in all my memories.
How am I supposed to sleep,
When you're in every single dream?
Lost dreams are never hard to find,
If you dream inside a dream.
But if you're heart can't find it's way,
Then dream that simple dream of me.
Chorus:
Don't let go,
Of me,
And I'll make your dreams come true.
But if you let me go,
Then how will I know what it's like with you?
Can't you see,
My heart,
Is no longer with me.
It's on my sleeve,
And I am asking you,
To take it off for me.

She's Got Me Now
04:25
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Well she said we have all this time,
To be what we want.
As long as we have each other,
Nothing else needs to be thought.
I've got all this time for her,
And she's got time for me,
And we don't need to see anyone but each other,
In between.
When we are apart,
That's okay too,
Cause in my mind the only thing that's turning,
Are pictures of you.
Chorus:
She's got me now,
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
ohh oh.
She's got me now.
And she's never letting go.
Verse 2:
When I see her or make plans,
That's all I can think about.
And when I finally see her,
I'm so happy I just need to shout.
I can't see myself with anyone else,
No, she's the one for me.
And if anyone else thinks we're not,
They'll be wrong for eternity.
No one else can stop us,
No one needs to know,
Why would we need someone else,
To tell us how to love?
Chorus:
She's got me now,
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
ohh oh.
She's got me now.
And she's never letting go.
(Instrumental Break)
Chorus:
She's got me now,
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
ohh oh.
She's got me now.
And she's never letting go.
She's got me now,
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
Ohh oh.
She's got me now.
ohh oh.
She's got me now.
And she's never letting go.

Verse 1:
It's been too long,
Since you've been gone.
I need you here,
To take away the fear.
Please come back now,
I need you here tonight.
Please save me,
From myself.
Chorus:
When we are apart,
The sky cries.
When we are together,
The sun shines.
When we are apart,
The sky cries.
When we are together,
Love won't die.
Verse 2:
Where have you gone?
It's been too long.
Please don't leave me here,
I don't want to be alone.
I miss your face,
And it can't be replaced.
You know how I feel,
I need you here for real.
Chorus:
When we are apart,
The sky cries.
When we are together,
The sun shines.
When we are apart,
The sky cries.
When we are together,
Love won't die.
(Instrumental Break)
Chorus:
When we are apart,
The sky cries.
When we are together,
The sun shines.
When we are apart,
The sky cries.

Up In Heaven
03:49
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
You’re all the way up in heaven,
And no one can take you down,
The angels sing songs about you,
Cause you’re the most beautiful around.
Now I can’t believe that you left,
And didn’t say goodbye,
But all that I know,
Is that you’re happy,
With your new life.
Verse 2:
So how are you today?
What’s it like?
To be above it all,
Watching us in time.
I know we’re growing up,
And you’re staying the same.
I just want you to know,
That we all feel this way…
Bridge:
Why can’t you come down,
And say one more hello?
If I could see your face again,
Happiness would be all I know.
Verse 3:
I can’t believe that you would go…
But believing is all I know.
Baby, I know you didn’t want this.
But some things in life are hard to miss.
While you’re smiling up in heaven,
I want you to know,
Your memory will last,
Forever…

Verse 1:
Please forgive me for what I've done.
My emotions have been on the run.
My life is twisted, I have no plain view.
I've got no life, all my thoughts are askew.
So please forgive me, I've done wrong.
My heart is dead, and my soul is torn.
My thoughts are nothing but confusion.
My heart is but a worn contrusion.
Chorus:
I swear to god this is coming,
From the heart.
I don't want us anymore,
To be apart.
I can't handle not being close to you,
I'll do anything to make it up to you.
I swear to god this is coming,
From the heart.
I don't want us anymore,
To be apart.
I'll do anything to make it up to you,
Oh please forgive me.
Verse 2:
My lungs have no air,
And cannot retain.
No information,
Just numbness in my brain.
My heart feels no love,
And yet I feel no hate.
Feelings can't penetrate,
This empty slate.
I want to say,
I'm sorry...
Don't worry about me,
I'll be fine in the end.
Oh I promise I'll get through.
Once I fixed what I have,
Done to you.
Chorus:
I swear to god this is coming,
From the heart.
I don't want us anymore,
To be apart.
I can't handle not being close to you,
I'll do anything to make it up to you.
I swear to god this is coming,
From the heart.
I don't want us anymore,
To be apart.
I'll do anything to make it up to you,
Oh please forgive me.

Verse 1:
Ahhhh shades of amber.
Race through the night. (No hands can touch me here)
Here in the shadows,
I'll be alright.
Must I love you, still?
Verse 2:
Soft shades of morning,
Great empty day. (So hard to reach my dream.)
Dreams built on wishes.
Falling away.
(Instrumental Break)
Verse 3:
Cold shade of amber,
Love I had known.
Here in my shadow,
I am alone.

Verse 1:
When I look into your eyes,
There's so much I wanna say.
But I don't have the courage,
And I don't have the strength.
To say you leave me breathless,
Well that's not enough to say.
Cause every moment that I'm with you.
I just want to take your breath away.
And I know that's kind of corny.
But that's how I really feel.
And I'm gonna say the things I wanna say,
Right now to you.
Chorus:
Every moment that we talk,
And every moment that we share,
That's not enough for me,
I want you to always be here.
And every time you look at me,
And I see your gorgeous smile,
All I think about is,
How I want you to be mine.
Verse 2:
And I know this goes along,
With all of those cliches.
But every time I want you to tell you how I feel,
I just freeze and cannot speak.
And how am I supposed to hear you,
Over the sound of my heartbeat?
When I wake up in my bed,
You're the first thing on my mind.
I usually don't get the girl,
But I'd do anything to get you,
Just this one time.
You're so out of my league,
That I can't even comprehend.
Why do you even talk to me?
I can't believe I'm lucky enough,
Just to be your friend.
Chorus:
Every moment that we talk,
And every moment that we share,
That's not enough for me,
I want you to always be here.
And every time you look at me,
And I see your gorgeous smile,
All I think about is,
How I want you to be mine.
Outro:
I can't help but smile,
When I'm looking at your face,
Cause every single feature,
Is perfect in every way.
And I've tried to explain,
How I really feel,
But I don't have the words...

Verse 1:
I never wanted to watch you walk away,
But I don't really have the choice to stay.
And I wish that I could call out your name,
But my attempts to reach you have been in vain.
And I'm not sure what I have to do next,
When it came to you I always tried my best.
But now it feels as though a bullet's in my chest.
And now I'm all caught up in your wreck.
And I'm not sure how to deal with all this pain,
I swear to God, I hope you feel the same.
And I don't think either one of us is to blame.
I don't want things to fall apart again.
Chorus:
Why does this hurt so bad,
Emotions surging through my chest.
All I want is for an end.
I never asked for this.
Verse 2:
This pain is not exxageration.
To say I'm hurting is an understatement.
It's like my heart's in an iron maiden.
And there's no chance of escaping.
And now I feel like there's no air in my lungs,
I wish that this was my swan song.
Because I can't find a reason to go on.
You took the best part of me,
And tore it up.
Chorus:
Why does this hurt so bad,
Emotions surging through my chest.
All I want is for an end.
I never asked for this.

Verse 1:
Where do we go from here?
How do you feel,
By the end of the day?
Is this the way,
You wanted it to be?
Cause I'm holding on.
And I have...
Chorus:
Something to say,
Just let me go on,
Get it out of the way.
There's something to say,
Let me be true,
Cause I have to be,
Honest with you.
Verse 2:
Tell me what we're doing here.
I really need to know...
Have you gotten past your fears?
Can you finally fall in love?
I'm not saying I've been waiting.
But I've been filled with hope.
I know it's hard to see us together.
But I want you to know,
That I've got...
Chorus:
Something to say,
Just let me go on,
Get it out of the way.
There's something to say,
Let me be true,
Cause I have to be,
Honest with you.
Bridge:
Why did you have to go?
You left me feeling cold...
Chorus:
Something to say.
Just let me go on.
Get it out of the way.
Something to say.
Let me be true.
Cause I have to be,
Honest with you.
Something to say,
Just let me go on,
Get it out of the way,
Cause there's something to say.
There's something to say.
Outro:
Something to say...
Let me go on...
Let me go...

Verse 1:
First met you in the fall,
I didn't know you at all.
You caught my eye so fast,
I had to stop and take a breath.
I had to know your name,
Forgot about the other things.
I need to have your heart,
Not having it will only hurt.
Tell me what I can do,
To prove to you,
That I'm more than a man,
That you can call your friend.
Bridge:
I can't be just friends with you,
I need something more,
I want to tell you,
You're the one I adore.
Chorus:
You're the best friend I wish I never had,
I want to be with you.
But I guess that we're past that point,
Cause I can't get through.
Tell me what I have to do,
To prove that I love you.
Verse 2:
I wish that I was a different man.
So I could be the one,
To take your hand.
I felt this love for way too long.
And everyday I feel it,
Get so strong.
Bridge:
I just want to know,
What I have to do.
Cause everything I've wanted,
Has been inside of you.
Chorus:
You're the best friend I wish I never had,
I want to be with you.
But I guess that we're past that point,
Cause I can't get through.
Tell me what I have to do,
To prove that I love you.

Verse 1:
The leaves are falling to the ground,
But I can’t hear them make a sound.
Bound into the earth’s deep crust,
Bound even deeper than our love.
When the rain begins to fall,
Know that we will have it all,
Never slipping,
Never fade,
Never losing our way.
Chorus:
It doesn’t matter what you think,
It doesn’t matter what you know,
Cause in the end your fate decides,
How it all will go.
Verse 2:
Lost inside a rainy day,
Thoughts are slipping their way,
Inside my head I’m filled with numb,
My thoughts of you are fully done.
No more hating,
No more tears,
No more fading,
No more fears,
No more love slipping away,
Now inside me it will stay.
Love is never what it seems,
It comes in forms of thoughts and dreams,
But even when you slip away,
I see tomorrow a bright day.
Chorus:
It doesn’t matter what you think,
It doesn’t matter what you know,

Your memory will last,
