theres probarbly ten zillion typos but i mumble far too much to make out what im actually saying, so here goes.

If You Meant It
and i would stay here this time,
if i could make you cry,
if i had let you down once more.
and i could try,
to make it right,
find a place we both can hide.
and i would start right over, start right over again,
if you felt it and if you meant it.
and i would wipe the tears from those eyes,
wait until the feeling dies,
like it always does.
and i could lie,
keep it all inside,
find a place we both can hide.

and i would start right over, start right over again,
if you felt it and if you meant it.
start right over, start right over,
again.
just say, and i'll turn back around.
just say, and i'll turn back to you.
just say.
please.

Lions
no i've not got the you and i,
that i prayed for every night.
and i dont have the same reasons,
that you'd expect from anyone.
and i could wait on every day,
try to let it fade away,
and i should try to forget,
but i don't want to lose you yet.
and i don't know why.
no i'm not fine.
i've been trying,
to keep my lions in.
but i'm still dreaming,
of you softly breathing.
so close to me.
and you won't leave my dreams,
and this feeling never leaves,
i've got these words in my mouth,
but they're choking me up now.
and i'm still here, just for you,
if only you knew
that i can't breathe without you there
you're the sun to which i stare.
and i don't know why.
no i'm not fine.
i've been trying,
to keep my lions in.
but whilst i'm singing hallelujah,
i'm drowning.
so please, please, save me.
please, please don't leave me here.

Railways
tears will fall
like snow on railways lines
everything will stop
but i'll be back on track sometime
theres snow on the road
slow down please
there snow on the road
slow down for me
i could sing to you
if it would help things get better
i'm so scared this won't improve
but if youre happy, i can settle.
theres snow on the road
slow down please
there snow on the road
slow down for me
and ill dream of you
like i always do
but i know some dreams
just won't ring true
so i'll sing these words
always for you
and ill pray that they
bring me close to you.
so i'm still, still waiting
for any sign, that might say
whats so wrong? whats so wrong with me, for you.

Polaroids
i still can't tell you yet,
the words i want don't belong.
that face i cant forget,
as these cold months, they move on.
the maps that can,
show where this all comes from,
are kept behind these blue eyes,
thats where they always belong.
and there is nothing left in my thoughts,
that i could have wanted more,
and i'm sorry that i've closed the door,
but i can't go on like this any more.
it's just a clouded mind,
that takes its toll,
some days i, i try to find,
any way to stay in control.
so i start the car, nowhere to go,
i've come too far to let this go.
keep on the road and chase the storm,
stay just below to feel the warmth.
and there is nothing left in my thoughts,
that i could have wanted more,
and i'm sorry that i've closed the door,
but i can't go on like this any more.
so take your camera, take a picture,
take your life in that second.
take your camera take a picture remember me,
soon i'll be..
gone.
i'll be gone.
so i start the car, nowhere to go,
i've come too far to let this go.
keep on the road and chase the storm,
stay just below to feel the warmth.
and there is nothing left in my thoughts,
that i could have wanted more,
and i'm sorry that i've closed the door,
but i can't go on like this any more.

Sugar
days i've spent
wasting my time
each second
you're on my mind
times i've wished
you were mine
but i know that
these things take time.
don't lay so low, you're beautiful.
you make me smile
more than you know
i'd walk for miles
just to be alone
and i hope i get
the freedom i need
to let you step
down beside me
don't lay so low, you're beautiful.
days i've spent
wasting my time
each second
you're on my mind

Separate
they started so slowly,
those days i spent from you,
you've said you fell alone,
i was young, i could let go.
but i tried, i tried to forget you,
i still can't forgive myself.
and i tried to forget you,
but i still can't forgive.
that day i half sewed,
but it still seeps through now
all the times i felt from you,
tears fell when we sat down.
but i tried, i tried to forget you,
i still can't forgive myself.
and i tried to forget you,
but i still can't forgive.
we lay down in those fields,
gifts tight in our hands.
they would break like we had.
like tears fell when we sat down.
it's wrong but,
i know i, i know i never,
it's wrong but,
i know i, i know i never will.

Holding On
you said you missed me,
it didn't mean the same thing,
and i wish i could have told you
that you mean everything.
and you told me we would always be worth something,
i'm still holding on to what that is.
you told me i would always be someone, to you,
i'm still holding on for who that is.
i never lost the bruises,
and i wish i was on your mind,
i still have that dream,
because you've never left mine.
and you told me we would always be worth something,
i'm still holding on to what that is.
you told me i would always be someone, to you,
i'm still holding on for who that is.
who that is anymore, no i don't know who that is.
anymore.

Wait For Your Wings
wait, you never said any goodbyes.
wait, you promised me you would try.
and i still believed,
when i was down on my knees,
praying just come home, please.
wait, i never found my wings at all.
wait, you always fly i always fall.
and i still believed,
when i was down on my knees,
praying just come home, please.
so when are you coming home again?
because i miss you, i miss you, i really do.

I Want You (Elvis Costello cover)
I want you
Youve had your fun you dont get well no more
I want you
Your fingernails go dragging down the wall
Be careful darling you might fall
I want you
I woke up and one of us was crying
I want you
You said young man I do believe youre dying
I want you
If you need a second opinion as you seem to do these days
You can look in my eyes and you can count the ways
I want you
Did you mean to tell me but seem to forget
I want you
Since when were you so generous and inarticulate
I want you
Its the stupid details that my heart is breaking for
Its the way your shoulders shake and what theyre shaking for
Its knowing that he knows you now after only guessing
I want you
Its the thought of him undressing you or you undressing
I want you
He tossed some tatty compliment your way
I want you
And you were fool enough to love it when he said
I want you
I want you
The truth cant hurt you its just like the dark
It scares you witless
But in time you see things clear and stark
I want you
Go on and hurt me then well let it drop
I want you
Im afraid I wont know where to stop
I want you
Im not ashamed to say I cried for you
I want you
I want to know the things you did that we do too
I want you
I want to hear he pleases you more than I do
I want you
I might as well be useless for all it means to you
I want you
Did you call his name out as he held you down
I want you
Oh no my darling not with that clown
I want you
Youve had your fun you dont get well no more
I want you
No-one who wants you could want you more
I want you
Every night when I go off to bed and when I wake up
I want you
I want you
Im going to say it once again til I instill it
I know Im going to feel this way until you kill it
I want you
I want you
