FADING LIKE A FLOWER (EVERY TIME YOU LEAVE)

In a time
Where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart
That's made of stone

I will try
I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind
To see the world
Through different eyes

Every time i see you
Oh i try to hide away
But when we meet it
Seems i can't let go
Every time you leave the room
I feel i'm fading like a flower

Tell me why
When i scream there's no reply
When i reach out
There's nothing to find
When i sleep
I break down and cry

Every time i see you
Oh i try to hide away
But when we meet it
Seems i can't let go
Every time you leave the room
I feel i'm fading like a flower

Fading like a rose
Beaten by the storm
Talking to myself
Getting washed by the rain
It's such a cold cold town

IT MUST HAVE BEEN LOVE

Lay a whisper
On my pillow
Leave the winter
On the ground
I wake up lonely
There's air of silence
In the bedroon
And all around
Touch me now
I close my eyes
And dream away

It must have been love
But it's over now
It must have been good
But i lost it somehow
It must have been love
But it's over now
From the moment we touched
'Til the time had run out

Make-believing
We're together
That i'm sheltered
By your heart
But in and outside
I've turned to water
Like a teardrop
In your palm
And it's a hard
Winter's day
I dream away

It must have been love
But it's over now
It was all that i wanted
Now i'm living without
It must have been love
But it's over now
It's where the water flows
It's where the wind blows

LISTEN TO YOUR HEART

I know there's something
In the wake of your smile
I get a notion
From the look in your eyes, yea
You've built a love
But that love falls apart
Your little piece of heaven
turns too dark

Listen to your heart
When he's calling for you
Listen to your heart
There's nothing else you can do

I don't know where you're going
And i don't know why
But listen to your heart
Before you tell him goodbye

Sometimes you wonder
If this fight is worthwhile
The precious moments are all
Lost in the tide, yea
They're swept away
And nothing is what it seems
The feeling of belonging to your dreams

Listen to your heart
When he's calling for you
Listen to your heart
There's nothing else you can do

And there are voices
That want to be heard
So much to mention but
You can't find the words
The scent of magic
The beauty that's been
When love was wilder than the wind

Spending My Time

What's the time?

Seems it's already morning.

I see the sky

It's so beautiful and blue

The TV's on

But the only thing showing

Is a picture of you

Oh I get up

And make myself some coffe

I try to read a bit

But the story's too thin

I thank the Lord above

That you're not here to see me

In this shape I'm in

Spending my time

Watching the days go by

Feeling so small

I stare at the wall

Hoping that you

Think of me too

I'm spending my time

I try to call

But I don't know

What to tell you

I leave a kiss

On your answering machine

Oh help me please

Is there someone who can make me

Wake up from this dream?

Spending my time

Watching the sun go down

I fall asleep to the sound

Of "Tears of a Clown"

A prayer gone blind

I'm spending my time

My friends keep telling me

Hey, live will go on

Time will make sure

I'll get over you

This silly game of love

You play, you win

Only to lose
