How come these precious things were made to seem remote
How come the words I weighed were forced back down my throat There was no room for honesty No quarter that was mine No noble cause I tried fake a life To fool those snapping jaws From here I dare to launch my flimsy paper boats I shove each gently from the shore but guard it where it floats They must not drift too far from me I still sense danger and They are too frail In time they'll catch the wind And fly with billowed sail |

Why did he have to make such darkness out of blue
Ok there's sadness in his life he didn't get to choose Why did he needed to feel a reassuring hand Before he seemed to understand You stumble free... or let it be Too late I saw my words were cutting him in two Saw him clutching at the straws he couldn't bear to lose He said that given time he knew it would come right And how he longed for warmth and light So he could see how things should be Then my feet left the ground And my words became a string of sounds He gave me that old sad look and fell in line And at this sign Everything I'd said just slipped from my mind 'cause my feet left the ground So glad once more it's me he'd found Got rid of the dark and clung to the blue What more could I do Everyone knew that I was dreaming He and I can stay in this tiny patch of blue They are so close together colours that we use I just needed to hear him say he understands Before I dare to show my hand And stumble free... or let it be When my feet left he ground All my words became a string sounds He gave me that old sad look and fell in line And at this sign Everything I'd said just slipped from my mind 'cause my feet left the ground So glad once more it's me he'd found Got rid of the dark and clung to the blue What more could I do Everyone knew that I was dreaming |

They won't ever find us here
Believe me... that's the truth now It's not that hard to disappear You've just got to know how His eyes meet hers and he sees how she's Busy fighting back the tears We'll be just fine... you wait and see He hopes his words will calm her From here on in it's you and me He'll let no-body harm her Her hands in his on the table-top Trying to make the shaking stop How I wonder whose they are Those lives we can only watch from afar How I wish that we could show That we can care and long to know How it goes... that we could see Beyond the way things seem to be The way they seem to be They pay and leave... the bus is due The night is growing colder He says this coat's just made for you And slips it 'round her shoulders They climb aboard and become to us Just to faces on a bus How I wonder whose they are Those lives we can only watch from afar How I wish that we could show That we can care and long to know How it goes... that we could see Beyond the way things seem to be The way they seem to be... |

Welcome to the wastelands
I guess you saw the sign Saying... plots of land to let Where all those broken hearts can pine A place where no-one says that you Must get back in the game But let you take your own sweet time And you just let them do the same All who walk the wastelands Feel they're branded someone's fool All who walk the wastelands are hurting bad but won't let sadness rule The landscape is forbidding The trees are hung with dew But no-one ever comes to visit here For the climate or to see the view The wastelands must stay barren So hearts can freely sow The seed that thrives on all their bitterness Well-knowing it won't ever grow All who walk the wastelands Feel they're branded someone's fool All who walk the wastelands Know that Love can be so cruel All who walk the wastelands Are still missing what they had All who walk the wastelands Are hurting bad but won't let sadness rule |

When Judy falls
The word goes out to One and all When Judy falls The whole world seems To heed her haunting call And when she falls It marks the start Of Spring The air is filled with bird-song And Nature sings along When Judy falls When Judy falls Her hopes are oh so high She's walking tall And when she falls She's hoping she's the apple of some eye But if she falls... in vain We'll surely hear... the sound Of hopes that start to crumble And silent birds that tumble To the ground Love is always new When Judy makes the rules and breaks them too Love is never old She doesn't wait around till hearts grow cold She believes in weaving dreams And nothings ever what it seems When Judy falls Oh when Judy falls But if she falls... in vain We'll surely hear... the sound Of hopes that start to crumble And silent birds that tumble To the ground |

Lead mte to the sand and sea
Sit a while beside me... and I won't mind Wait until the tide has turned To see what's left behind Then I'll search for things to save Wake me if I'm dreaming And if all I've planned starts streaming through my fingers Out of hand... grains of sand Let the woman I'll become Dare to walk the shoreline... and to ride the wave Let the ocean show its might But leave me feeling brave When all else is washed from sight Wake me if I'm dreaming And if all I've planned starts streaming through my fingers Out of hand... grains of sand Never let me hide away In caves and shun the light of day Let the waters gently steer Me to my moorings far from fear so I might come to comb this beach Seeing what my eye can reach And knowing that a heart can open here... open here Lead me to the sand and sea Sit a while beside me... and I won't mind Wait until the tide has turned To see what's left behind |

A door left ajar lets whispering from afar breath life into... a dream of me and you I will the spark to die But still it lights my eye Still makes me feel that this alone is real And though I know it I dare not show it or let this madness makes a kill By dwelling on what might have been Or giving sadness space to fill I'll balance on the edge a while but won't fall in I'll retrace every step I’ve ever run or crept Hoping I will see what is bleeding me And when I know it I won't show it... or let this madness make a kill By dwelling on what might have been Or giving sadness space to fill I'll balance on the edge a while but won't fall in (간주) And though I know it I dare not show it or let this madness makes a kill By dwelling on what might have been Or giving sadness space to fill I'll balance on the edge a while but won't fall in

Words yet unspoken
Some promise unbroken These are the tokens I cling to Kisses ungiven Dreams yet unlived in These are the gifts I can bring you Can bring to you ... so tell me Who goes there Step out of the night and just show me you care Take these gifts that I bear ... and I will know Love is here Who goes there Do you come as a friend or a foe ... and if so Should I stay ... should I go I need to know I need to know Tantos caminhos Sempre a seu lado Fomos deixando pra tras O amor sozinho Foi se perdendo Agora e tarde demais Demais Pra voltar Who goes there Step out of the night and just show me you care Take these gifts that I bear ... and I will know Love is here Who goes there Nao sei pra voce o que sou se acabou ... and if so Should I stay ... should I go Eu preciso saber I need to know (Credits: Music: Silje Nergaard | Lyrics: Mike McGurk | Portuguese lyrics: Marcio Faraco | Duet with Marcio Faraco | Acc.

If Love is strange... a lover's even stranger
He'll tell her she outshines his wildest dreams But given time he'll try to rearrange her To fit within the fabric of his schemes Oh... what became of "stay the way you are, love"? Why change the very things you loved me for? What became of "stay the way you are"? The way I was before you called me yours If Love is blind... a lover's even blinder Her charm he'll say has brought him to his knees From that day on he'll search but never find her The woman she's become will fail to please Uh... what became of "stay the way you are, love"? Why change the very things you loved me for? What became of "stay the way you are"? The way I was before you called me yours (Credits: Music: Silje Nergaard | Lyrics: Mike McGurk | Acc. Guitar: Bjørn Charles Dreyer & Hallgrim Bratberg | Dobro guitar: Finn Guttormsen | Backing vocal: Jan Ingvar Toft) |

The storm that is underway is gonna rock that house of yours
Leaving you no place to hide How are you gonna manage from then on The wind that is but a moan will soon be howling at your door You're tucked up safe inside But are you gonna stay in till it's gone You check locks and latches And batten down hatches But the gale will send flying all that it catches How are you gonna deal with it, baby? When everything you had got planned Seems to come crashing down... there... before your eyes How are you gonna deal with it, baby? When everything gets out of hand... and all that once mattered Is picked up and scattered You're out in the cold But you hold on and hope to survive When the dust has all settled you'll find a way to survive Still closed up or open wide How are you gonna play it from now on The storm has passed and you're relieved Love's still alive It could have curled up and died There is no way to play it when it's gone You check locks and latches And batten down hatches But the gale will send flying all that it catches How are you gonna deal with it, baby? When everything you had got planned Seems to come crashing down... there... before your eyes How are you gonna deal with it, baby? When everything gets out of hand... and all that once mattered Is picked up and scattered You're out in the cold But you hold on and hope to survive |

What is the use of words
If they don´t make her seen or heard? She watches dust to dust unstirred Though left behind She is too weak to grieve or blame us, We who leave. There is no hour of bliss When ignorance can lead to this. Don´t let the hand of time be kind And smooth her gently from my mind. Let me be troubled. Let me be troubled. Where on the road did I lose my way Not knowing where it will wind? How can I find that road? I need to explain where I went amiss And tell her I will save her from all of this... From all of this. These are the words of a fool And heads not hearts must rule I hear you say that minds can be so slow to see what hearts just know. Let me be troubled. Let me be troubled. Where on the road did I lose my way Not knowing where it will wind? How can I find that road? I need to explain where I went amiss And tell her I will save her from all of this... From all of this. Where on the road did I lose my way Not knowing where it will wind? How can I find that road? I need to explain where I went amiss And tell her I will save her from all of this... From all of this. |
