Could It Be Love?

Take me out dancing,
Let’s start good old fashioned romancing.
We’ll walk down by the river at a half past 10
So I’m tucked up in bed by 11 again and I’ll
Dream about my dream boy.
‘Cause there’s a tingle in my toes,
And I’m giddy I suppose,
And I feel real high,
There’s something in my eye,
Could it be love?
Could it be love?
Mama told me you’re a catch,
And even daddy says we’re a perfect match.
Sing me all the songs I like
So I know I’m gonna be alright and I’ll
Dream about my dream boy
‘Cause there’s a tingle in my toes,
And I’m giddy I suppose,
And I feel real high,
There’s something in my eye,
Could it be love?
Could it be love?
You’re the only one I wanna see.
Let’s make a promise to believe.
Believe in life and laughter and love and tears,
And that’s how we’re gonna make it through the years and we’ll
Dream about our dreams, boy
‘Cause there’s a tingle in my toes,
And I’m giddy I suppose,
And I feel real high,
There’s something in my eye,
Could it be love?
Could it be love?
It could be love, love, love,
I hope that it’s love.
It could be love

Pretending

Cherry red lips,
Gold paint on my finger tips.
Tell me it’s worth it these
Precious tears.
Sunday morning,
Wrapped up warm and the day is dawning
But can we make it ‘till
The sun goes down?
And as the nights get colder,
My eyes get older,
And these twisted words
Start to make more sense.
It’s like a rainbows ending,
And we are still pretending
That there’s gold at the end of the line.
So open up your fairy stories
And let the words fall out.
Familiar faces and far off places,
Too real for you to doubt.
But in the end we’re only pretending
That life is never ending,
And we’re perfectly fine.
And if I shout loud enough from the rooftops,
Then you can come and join us
In our perfect life.
Pretty photographs,
Chopped and changed so they're not the same.
Tell me it’s worth it
This hollow pain.
Monday morning,
Ready for work and the day is dawning.
But can I make it
Back home again?
And if I’m not myself today,
Just ignore me,
I’ll be okay.
It’s like a rainstorms ending -
Flowers will grow from my pretending.
So open up your fairy stories
And let the words fall out.
Familiar faces and far off places,
Too real for you to doubt.
But in the end we’re only pretending
That life is never ending,
And we’re perfectly fine.
And if I shout loud enough from the rooftops,
Then you can come and join us
In our perfect life.
Oh, we’re only pretending, hey, yeah,yeah.
So I’m gonna hold my breath,
‘Till the music ends.
But it’s all pretend.
But in the end we’re only pretending
That life is never ending,
And we’re perfectly fine.
And if I shout loud enough from the rooftops,
Then you can come and join us
In our perfect life.
And in the end we’re only pretending
That life is never ending,
And we’re perfectly fine.
And if I shout loud enough from the rooftops,
Then you can come and join us
In our perfect life.
And if my heart keeps insisting on beating,
Then I will be believing in another time.
And if the world keeps insisting on turning,
Then I will keep on yearning for another life.

Free Fall
03:25

Every time I’ve fallen in love,
It’s been a big mistake.
Misunderstanding on my part,
Or just misleading on his.
Too many tears have rolled down my cheeks,
Too many angry words been said.
The time has come for me to pack it all in,
Let’s bring this game to an end.
So I told myself, “Girl, get a grip,
There’s nothing those guys wouldn’t do for it.
Your heart’s been broken
One too many times.”
But it’s in my hands, yeah, things can change.
Just like the clouds I can rearrange the shade
That’s been blocking out the light.
But with you, I wanna free fall in,
Yeah, free fall in.
With you, woah, I wanna free fall in,
Yeah, free fall in.
I got stuck at the vertical drop,
But I made it through.
Perseverance is easy once you know
That the climb is worth it for the view.
But now they’re all fine and I am not,
My life’s become tied up in a knot,
So I’m taking steps
To try and make it right.
So I’ll start with a song to make me smile,
Cause I haven’t felt this way in a while.
And believe me,
My guard was up.
But with you, I wanna free fall in,
Yeah, free fall in.
With you, woah, I wanna free fall in,
Yeah, free fall in.
With you, I wanna free fall in,
Yeah, free fall in.
With you, woah, I wanna free fall in,
Yeah, free fall in.
With you, woah.
With you, woah.
With you.

Our Last Dance
03:50
|
|||
|
You tell me one thing,
But your lips tell me another.
But I’m not listening,
I’m hiding under cover.
As the bullets of reality
Start raining down on you and me,
Baby, it hurts.
We’ve been hit once before
We thought we’d healed
But, the wounds are still raw.
And I’ve got a thousand reasons
To ask you to stay.
But a thousand more reasons
To turn you away.
So I’ll throw away the keys
Once I’ve locked you inside,
‘Cause now I’ve decided to do what’s right.
I played the fool
In the game that you made.
Backing and forthing
It drives me insane.
So I’m telling you now
If you want another chance,
There’s no point even trying,
‘Cause baby, we’ve danced our last dance.
Your friends are surprised
That you’re running for the exit.
But I knew from the start
That we could never make it.
I was never what you wanted
But I stupidly drank the poison.
Now I’m being haunted
by the demons I ignored the first time.
And I’ve got a thousand reasons
to ask you to stay.
But a thousand more reasons
To turn you away.
So I’ll throw away the keys
Once I’ve locked you inside,
‘Cause now I’ve decided to do what’s right
I played the fool
in the game that you made.
Backing and forthing
It drives me insane.
So I’m telling you now
If you want another chance,
There’s no point even trying,
Baby, we’ve danced our last
Now when we’re talking
I’m treading on ice,
To make sure I don’t go down
The road I’ve been twice
Before, but with you
There's always a danger.
I never expected that we’d become strangers.
But I’m moving on now,
It’s time for goodbye.
Maybe I’ll see you around sometime.
I didn’t see it before,
I was stuck in a trance.
But there’s no point even trying,
Baby, we’ve danced our last dance.
One last kiss.
I can’t take any more of this.

Something Wonderful
03:35

Every morning I look out my window,
See the sunrise over the boring rooftops.
Well I guess that’s only when it’s sunny,
And here the rain pours like money.
Isn’t it funny?
I need a little time.
I’ll pour myself a little glass of wine,
And breathe.
‘Cause darling my eyes can see
What’s right there in front of me.
It’s something wonderful,
And I know
I just have to realise,
I don’t have to close my eyes,
For me to see,
There’s something wonderful
In me.
I’ll munch on my breakfast at half past 12,
I am not trying to prove myself,
I am just living.
Living while fading.
Go tell your sister, your brother,
Your father, your mother
That high expectations are not worth the bother.
We’re just living.
Living while fading.
I need a little more time,
I’ll pour myself a bigger glass of wine,
And breathe.
‘Cause darling my eyes can see
What’s right there in front of me.
It’s something wonderful,
And I know
I just have to realise,
I don’t have to close my eyes,
For me to see,
There’s something wonderful
In me.
There’s something wonderful
In me.
