i need a séance, some kind of nuance to get in touch with you, to just get threw
i'm becoming a conjurer, some kind of astronomer evocating you, i believe its true
is there some kind of medium, an equilibrium to cary me on threw, take me to you
strange dreams come to life
i hear your voce in the night
i feel your presence surrounding me
as if there's life after life
so tell me you love me
so tell me you love me
so tell me you love me now
love was a burden, you were quick to unload and never hold again
stars light up the sky, in the corner of my eye i see you again
is there some kind of medium, an equilibrium to cary me on threw, take me to you

I may not be the wight man for you but I can be Mr. Right right now.
so why be noble when mr rights not even around
why be so virtuous as if you've been betrothed
don't you wonder where he goes when he goes
open the door i'm not gona cause you any pain
i just want to practice with you for your wedding day
why contemplate tomorrow it works out some how
lets just think about right now
on and on you wait for him to call
on your own how long can you go on
where is your man
where is your man
if his so right for you i don't under stand
tell me honey where's your man
I may not be the wight man for you but I can be Mr. Right right now.
so why be noble when mr rights not even around
why be so virtuous as if you've been betrothed
don't you wonder where he goes when he goes
on and on you wait for him to call
on your own how long can you go on
where is your man
where is your man
where is your man
off to claim another hand

she enters the scene
more lovely each time
and you just want to keep her safe from this crime
but she takes it in stride
so graceful and kind
and its hard to believe she's just reading her lines.
but what really lies
behind those sweet eyes
when she can't go on
and she cry cry cry's
don't you re-a-lize
she an actress
and when staying with me
became not quite so that easy
she suffered in silence never out loud
but she takes it in stride
so graceful and kind
i truly in aware she's one of a kind
but what really hides
behind all the lies

Here with you
05:21

in a dingy room, on a freezing night, with a lamp that needs a shade
in a strange city, thats all new to me, and a lack of conviction for the plans we made
going over my options tonight, can i leave with out starting a fight, or maybe i'll just slip away
and don't i miss home
you know i should have never started to rome
if i could leave tonight
i know that everything would be all rite
and i hope i never see this place again
still i want to be here
still i want to be here
still i want to be here with you
but lets face it i can't live like this
and i probably wont be that missed
you'll find some one els to keep you amused
after everything that we've been threw
after everything it comes down to
i'm the one thats really been abused
and no its not nice but guess what
i know you don't what me to but
no ones gana tell me what to do
but it all ends today
i never should have let you drag me away
and if i leave tonight
i could be back home by morning light

Hanging round with you, is teaching me a thing or two and i don't want to go around with you
hanging round like this, hoping just to get a kiss and thinking that i don't need all of this
olivia- why you wana do me like you do?
olivia- why do you make me rase my voce, get up and shout at you?
have you no mercy
have you no mercy
have you no mercy on me
have you no mercy on me
i can't brake away, something brings me back each day and i can't ever brake away from you
something in that smile, something in that face and eyes , something thats a woman and a child
olivia- no about of patience is enough
olivia- what ever happened to you in the past that makes you act so tough?
have you no mercy
have you no mercy
have you no mercy on me
have you no mercy on me
i want to tell ya that i love ya and i miss ya alot
but every time i try to tell ya i get you don't give what you got
i want to hold you in my arms and make you change your ways tonight
but you don't listen and it makes me feel i'm losing my mind
i have to sneak up from behind you just to say good night
now tell me how's that rite now tell hows that rite?

Another failed attempt

riding the wave of happiness
feeling the rush of your successes
in just a few hours
and you had achieved super powers
now its gone and only a person remains
a few days together far away from home
looking thew windows at things you can't own
but now all the nights are getting so long
racking your brain for what you did wrong
rethinking each word, replaying that song
clearly you blow it
and thats all there seems to be to it
how could you have gotten is all so wrong ?
I know you feel like you been had
I know you feel like you bin had
another failed attempt at happiness
another failed attempt at happiness

Fall from grace
04:05

Looking back I want to try again
One more time I need to try again?
Roll the tape back I know what, i need to do.
You and me why don't we try again?
Every time I see your face
Makes me want to fall from grace.
But there's no turning back now
And now is no time to cry
But now I know exactly what I - should say to you
And all I needs a little time
Remember when you used to try and hold me
and all the times used to have to scold me
i want to see you looking , like I remember you
like I remember the things you told me
Come on now I want to see you shine
I want to see you looking like you used to
One more time I want to see you shine
Every time I see your face
Makes me want to fall from grace.
But there's no turning back now
And now is no time to cry
And there's no way to tell you what I need to
But if I could you know I'd try
Every time I see your face
Makes me want to fall from grace.

Nocturnal promises
07:34
|
|||
|
spiraling down with the new morning light on the wall
chasing the shadows that used to be friends you could call
walking on the black carpet again
turning into that person again
trying to get something out of this night
a euphoric recall of delight
nocturnal promises can't hold you thew the night
and that fixation only fads in morning light
another victim and you try to carry on
nocturnal promises don't last for very long
Laying a foundation down with just a touch of silicone.
Caressing upper eyelids with a penetrating cleansing foam.
Hydrating every inch of flesh with an expensive try-sodium.
Inspecting her complexion now in different lights and different tones.
She looks into the mirror searching for a glimpse of something real.
She looks into the mirror longing for something she can feel.
every thing is closing up so fast
no ones got the cash
good times coming back
there's hardly anybody on the street
lots of people losing sleep
but good times coming back
its not gonna be to long from now
salivations on the prowl
good times coming back
no more going on about the past
how things don't never last
good times coming back
