Song Lyrics
GERMAN WOOD There’s a picture of you that I don’t remember taking
It’s a simple way of saying that we were never faking
What a perfect moment we caught on film
And I can’t feel anything but guilt
There are some things I
Wish I could remember
Like the things you said in your letters
The ones I threw out and forgot to save
Like the way it felt inside the waves
I create the vision floating in my mind
And my dreams running on their own
I can’t remember what was said that night
And the words just won’t come back to me
There’s a heart you hold I don’t remember breaking
Missing pieces that I don’t remember taking
Pieces that you swore to keep so safe
I know you said you’re heart would never break
Now I know I should have paid much more attention
To all these things you said that I could never mention
Like the way you said you love me so
And I know that I’ll never find another love
BEAUTIFUL If I stay awake I’m lost inside your beautiful ways
If I fall asleep I’m lost inside this beautiful dream
You’re by my side gazing at this beautiful night
Under the stars that don’t look so bright next to your eyes
You’re so beautiful to me
Like the waterfalls over endless streams
You’re so beautiful to me
Like the river that feeds the crystal sea
Do you see me, lost inside your beautiful eyes
Where can I run trapped inside your beautiful smile
When its cold outside when the rain falls down
On the cloudy nights I see the sun shine down
GOODBYE TO BIRMINGHAM
How many days till
You’re in my arms again
How many nights will I wonder
Why’d it have to end?
How many tears will I cry?
Until you’re here with me
How many years will pass me?
By how long till I see
Why’d I have to leave you there?
Standing all alone
Why’d I have to leave you there?
For the long ride home
I said goodbye to you
Until we meet again
Goodbye to all that’s good
Goodbye my love my friend
Late at night when you lie down
When you sleep and dream
When next to me lay empty sheets
Tell me do you see me
Do you see me when you’re by yourself
Do you see me in pictures on the shelf
Do you see me when you’re with him
Do you miss me cuz I’m alone again
Why do I sit here every night
With my thoughts so prone to you
There’s no way to get you off my mind
Even when it’s all I want to do
IN HER EYES
I saw in her eyes
A lonely girl who cries out
I saw through her smile
the pain held all this time
and I heard in her voice
The pain from having no choice
when she sings
I hear the loneliness that sorrow brings
She cries at night
where do I go from here
she’s closed her mind
to one she held so dear
when she prays its like
no one even turns an ear
when she screams
she cries
no one dries her tears
but she still sings
I heard in her song
That her days are so long
The nights are so cold
All she does is wrong
She smiles through the tears
Fighting off the fears
And she stands…alone
Looking for a place to call her home
JUST WONDERING
I was just wondering if you really still care
I was just wondering if you’ll really be there
I was just wondering if you’ll pick me up
When I trip when I fall and got face into dust
I was only wondering if you’ve got anything left
I was only wondering if I’m wasting my breath
I was only wondering if I ever had a chance
Do you remember that I owe you a dance
So tell me just one more lie and I’ll believe you
Please explain to me why and I’ll leave you
No more lonely nights sitting beside you
I’ll get on with my life searching for ever
I was just wondering if you’ve got the time
I was just wondering if you still cry
That the thought of what we had has passed us by
Show me you care or hurt tell me it’ll be alright
I just need some sympathy I need you here with me
I just need you to care I need you to be right there
I just need a hug I just need someone to love
I just need to see oh my god all I need is just to breathe
LOVE LOSS AND RECOVERY
I miss the way you light up the room
I miss the smile I never knew
I miss the tears we used to cry
I miss the joy that lit up your face
I miss the way you used to say
Everything will be alright
And every time I dream of your face
Every time I hear your name
It makes me break down and I cry
I think of how you were taken away
But I still see you everyday
Every time I close my eyes
I never knew who you could be
Until you were taken away from me
Every night I wonder why
Even though I’m moving on
Will you stay here in this song
That will always play in my mind
OUTSIDE
Feel I’m falling as this world falls on me
There’s no one else around to help me to my feet
The taste of your lips the smell of your skin
Lifts me for a moment and lets me fall again
I want to know why do you hide
Here in the shadows behind your own eyes
If you could see to let me in
I’ll lift you up you wont fall down again
If you could live if you could love
If you could see outside your walls
Whats in a dream a mere heart and soul
Whats in a life that’s out of control
There must be a place where my dreams come true
I pray every night I can be there with you
The morning sun always comes with the news
My prayers unanswered and theres nothing new
SEIZE THE DAY
What a wasted day, what a waste of time
As the rain falls down, thoughts spill on my mind
What a waste of space, what a waste of life
As this day slips by, I’ve got to question whats right
And I know this can never be the same
This can never be again
The saddest words of tongue or pen
Is to ask what might have been
Any day now the sun will shine
On life that’s new or left behind
Any time now the rain will cease
The sun will smile down I’ll be free
I won’t waste my day, if the sun doesn’t shine
I’ll just walk out the door, put the car in drive
Don’t know where I’ll go, or just what I’ll do
But I know one thing, that this day’s brand new
And I know, that this day is still brand new
Don’t know what I’m going to do
But whether rain or snow comes through
I can’t just wait around for you
Any day now the sun will shine
Can’t sit around waiting wasting time
Any time now I’ll dare to dream
I’ll stand up tall and spread my wings
