"Close To Paradise"

We're walking close to Paradise
And more than other days
Yes, I'm walking closer and closer
But not close enough
Yes, I'm walking closer and closer
But not close enough

Waking morning sunshine burns
'Cause you fall from where your felt you are
And you're running faster and faster
Oh, but the days they ain't slowing down
And don't you, don't you wanna be there, there right now

Yes, I'm walking closer and closer
But not close enough
Yes, I'm walking closer and closer
To Paradise
We'll promise that
To Paradise
We'll promise that

Hey lovely people down there
Let's fill that hole up in the sky
Don't be afraid to care
I'm sure you'll find yourself there
Hey lovely people down there
Let's fill that hole up in the sky
Don't be afraid to care
I'm sure you'll find yourself there

I'm sure you'll find yourself there
When you're down, hold on
I'm sure you'll find yourself there
When you're down, hold on
I'm sure you'll find yourself there

Close, close to Paradise

Daydreamer
Come talk to me now
Daydreamer, daydreamer
Come with me now

Don't, no you're sitting down
From your eyes
Is he sleeping anyhow?

You're sitting down, sweet eyes
Still I'm sleeping anyhow

But daydreamer, oh daydreamer
Wake me now
From for the early sunlight
Pan my heart away
Day dreamer, oh day dreamer

My daydreamer


Won't you stay inside your house
'Cause I don't feel so lonely when you are around

(Previous lines played backwards)
When you are around


Lay my head
Tie me out of my shoes
An' walk another place away from blues
When my head is heavy on my shoulders
Daydreamer gonna make it over

My daydreamer
Won't you stay inside your house
(previous lines backwards)

slip into your skin and spend the night
and get out of mine
walking the streets in dark
where lamps are the sunshine for the trees
oh for the trees

cause everybody needs somebody
to hold them down
oh everybody needs somebody
to hold them down
when your feet are leaving the ground
leaving the ground
leaving the ground


leaving the ground

be the blanket for my bones
be a place that i call home
slipped into your skin and spent the night
cause i feel like a different man
i feel it when i'm with you
when i'm with you
when i'm with you
when i'm with you

is it just me or do you feel a little strange
is it just me or do you feel a change
now is it me
how about you?

isn't it strange at times a little fast
isn't it strange that nothing ever lasts
well now is it me
how about you?

well now is it me
how about you?

don't be a fool
well don't be afraid
nothing's really ever supposed to last

now don't be a fool
well don't be afraid
everybody needs to breathe the air

isn't it funny the very angel through


where talk is like walking on broken glass
no need to feather im in the same as you
one of these days im gonna meet my matchmaker too

well don't be a fool
well don't be afraid
nothing's really ever supposed to last

oh, don't be afraid
everybody needs to breathe the air

oh, i feel i feel so alive
at the edge of the world

well now is it me
how about you?

well now is it me
how about you.

I got my feet knocked off the ground
I got my head knocked off my feet
I tried to swallow all of the world
And now I'm diving in too deep
And now I'm falling towards the sky
I just don't know how am I
But I got the weight of all the world
I better not let go of the reins

Oh what am I s'pposed to do
Am I s'pposed to echo all of you?
Am I s'pposed to fall back to the sky?
Or keep on rising for a while?

I think I'm fallin' down
I'm back to very ground
I couldn't hold it anymore


I've had my hours asking for
I think these nice to hold
Or I don't see how could I change my way
I was carrying the weight of all the world
I'm gonna get what I deserve
I got my feet knocked off the ground
I got my head knocked off my feet
I tried to spin it all away
I think I got in too deep
I think you know I have to go
I think you know what I deserve
Here comes the weight of all the world
And it's coming straight for me.

found himself out into the road
the dust up to his nose
put that anchor down
to find a place where he could go
'cause he was looking for the shelter
from the storm

you were looking for a place that you could call your own... you...

kept on, now walking past the signs you used to see
kept on getting used to dropping-anchor
in the sea
'cause you´re looking for a shelter of the storm
looks like news that storm is coming closer every day now...

uuu...

drove himself into a town
the roads were paved with gold
(all the roads were paved with gold)
eyes wide open, shutters closed
(eyes wide open, shutters closed)
just waiting for my time to know
(quarter to twelve is time to go)

the sorrow's hiding underground
the rain is falling upside down
(and the clouds are turning red like flames)

oh 'cause I'm looking for a shelter from the storm... 'cause she's getting closer every daaaaaaayyyyyyeyeyeyehey!

the storm is getting closer every day
the storm is getting closer every day
the storm is getting closer every day

every day

Sweet oh luscious life
Celebrate your dreams when you are away
Doesn't it taste so sweet?
Like it's growing on oh growing on the trees
Growing on the trees

When you pick me up off the ground
I'll slowly turn you from a frown
Sweet oh luscious life

My sweet oh luscious life
You taste so sweet
When you are so free
My sweet oh luscious life you taste so sweet to me



Hold time no need for the moment of the day
I celebrate I need I need you today

Was wondering of the day
To celebrate
To let it be
To feel so free
When you and me
In a sweet luscious life
For a minute of day
You taste so sweet

We are drifting away
Follow everyday
Soon we'll have nothing to say
We'll be too far away
We'll be too far away
Too far away

From where we started begins
Where we started away
We'll be too far away
Cause we are drifting
Follow everyday

When I will remember
Even if I'm drifting far away


But I will remember
Even if I'm fading all away
Out of my head and till the sea
Oh I want the ocean over me
And I though all the time to swallow off the shore
I couldn't find you anymore

You look great drifters
But it's more look great drifters
But it's more look great drifters
We are drifters away
We are drifters away

I was hiding underneath the sea here
I was looking out for me
To be a better man, to be a better man

I was hiding underneath the sea
I was looking out for me
Just me, the fish and the sea
Just me, the fish and the sea
Oh 'cause the music was so much louder



Just me, the fish and the sea
Just me, the fish and the sea
Hide from all your apathy

'Cause I was born a noise machine
Wait I still, I was born again

The great escape

by Patrick watson



Bad day, looking for a way, home, looking for the great escape

Gets in his car and drives away, far from all the things that we are

Puts on a smile and breathes it in and breathes it out, he says

bye bye bye to all of the noise

Oh, he says bye bye bye to all of the noise

Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo noo noo

Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo noo noo

Hey child, things are looking down. That's OK, you don't need to win anyways.

Don't be afraid, just eat up all the gray and it will fade all away

Don't let yourself fall down

Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo noo noo

Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo Doo doo doo doo doo noo noo noo noo

Bad day, looking for the great escape.

He says bad day looking for the great escape

On a bad day, looking for the great escape, the great escape.

Oh those bright shinny lights
There shinning so bright
Casting a shadow
On all the simple things you used to own
Casting a shadow
On all the simple things you used to own

Oh those bright shinny lights
There shining so bright
Blinding the simple man
Oh what a sorrowful sight
Blinding the simple man
Oh what a sorrowful sight

Oh those bright shinny lights
There shinning so bright
There casting a shadow
Oh what a sorrowful sight
There casting a shadow
On all the simple things we used to own
There casting a shadow
Oh what a sorrowful sight
