Much change too soon
Even the dawn chorus changed her tune
Indulge me, will you protect me
From the passing of time
Let all our years pour like wine
Will I be beautiful to you
So then when we stand together,
Three decades on
Will you breathe your life into me
Under the eyes of heaven, can we
Make time stand still
The evergreen’s fading, as time turns her pages
Everything’s changing but me, me

It is always the same
There’s nothing left but remains
Still, will I be beautiful to you
Indulge me, oh protect me
I know there’s always a risk
Time has a deadly French kiss
So come to the waters edge
Where you can draw your circles
Around me, around me

Much change too soon
I often wonder why its so
Watch over me
Stay, the years with me…
Oh come to my water’s edge
Will you come to my water’s edge

No you don’t blame me for all that I’m not
For all that I am you say is so much more than good enough

Who said that opposites don’t attract
If you say this then I’ll always say that
Who said that opposites don’t attract
If black is white, and white is black
Then it’s the fact we’re both different
That makes us the same
That makes us the same

Friends say that we’ve got nothing in common
In different shoes but it’s the same ground we’re walking on
Everything that is different is still,
Still pull at the seams, but that won’t pull us apart

You say you love me for all that I’m not
And I still love you for all that you are

Who says that opposites don’t attract
If you say this then I’ll always say that
Who says that opposites don’t attract
If black is white, and white is black
Then it’s the fact we’re both different
That makes us the same

But we always
Find ourselves
In the middle
Oh I don’t blame you for all that you’re not
For all that you are is so much more than good enough

Who said that opposites don’t attract
If you say this then I’ll always say that
Who said that opposites don’t attract
You and me, me and you
Yeah, it’s the fact that we’re different
Yeah, it’s the fact that we’re different
That makes us the same

Oh, look at me happily
In this third party situation
A married man with a see through smile
Who’s not quite what he seems

Oh, I’m having trouble with the language
Having trouble getting through
Haven’t learned my lessons well
So I don’t know what to do

Having trouble with the language
Do you voulez-vous?
Never catch a falling knife
Oh, that’s just my point of view

Andre’s such a sycophant
Who always leaves the truth behind
Always stands on the outside
No matter how hard she tries
It’s been a while, the ready smile
I’ve got to go, Oh look at the time
If only she knew, what the restless do
She would surely break down and cry

Oh, I’m having trouble with the language
Yeah, Having trouble getting through
Haven’t learned my lessons well
So I don’t know what to do

Having trouble with the language
Do voulez-vous?
Never catch a falling knife
Oh, that’s just my point of view
That’s just my view

In a storm electric,
The lightning struck his head, twice
Now I’m a vegetarian
Because the piggy in the middle is dead

Oh yeah. Oh no

Downtown at the funeral home
There’s a dark cloud over our heads
She looked better in a black suit
But he looked better… dead

Oh, having trouble with the language
Having trouble breaking through
knock, knock, knock
Yeah, no you don’t know what to do

He said, if it’s mine it will be, always yours.
Cast away any doubt and open up those doors…
It was the

Shark and the Mermaid
Falling in love again
It was the shark and the mermaid
Marking love again
It was the shark and the mermaid
Falling in love again

As they grow in mind and body,
And the days turned into years.
He thought one day she might go away,
But her love overshadowed his fears.
Under the liquid sky,
Where they lived they were legends to behold.
Fate distracted by their simple charms,
Left them there to love alone.

Now the angels wait patiently,
in the shadows down below,
They stop and smile because…

It’s the Shark and the Mermaid
Falling in love again
It was the shark and the mermaid
Marking love again
It was the shark and the mermaid
Falling in love again

Nobody thought that the love would last
Everybody looked and everybody laughed
but the Mermaid and the Shark they just slipped away
Nothing stopped them no one got in their way
Standing together as lovers and friends.
They stayed together their love knew no end,
Proving everyone wrong, they grew together
They were strong.
Everybody was wrong.
About the… Shark and the Mermaid

Mother, Daughter, Sister, Lover,
There’s no perfect choice, as you walk in your future
Be still a child on your bed of eggshell,
Behind your first steps, it’s her shadows that cushion your fall

All questions will simply beg,
The most innocent replies.
She’ll make you a daisy chain
And cry as you walk away.

Mother, Daughter, Sister, Lover,
Her needles and pins hold the pieces together,
She’ll thread your pearls with her words of wisdom,
A shoulder to cry on,
She’ll leave all the lights on for you
Yeah she will leave them on for you

All questions will simply beg,
The most innocent replies.
She’ll make you a daisy chain
And cry as you break away.

Mother, Daughter, Sister, Lover,
One day soon you’ll be one or the other,
You’ll offer forgiveness, my savior, my sinner,
And then you will see that the circle begins here with…

Mother, Daughter, Sister, Lover,
Father, and Son, Brother, Lover
One day soon you’ll be one or the other.
And you’ll see that the circle begins here with…me

I want to cry in silence
You want to talk some sense
I’ve just stopped trying
It feels like I’m dying

Please don’t shout
It’s only anger that you’re waking
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening

Today I cry for my sins
Tomorrow call me a fool
Depression drags me deeper
It’s like there’s nothing left to lose

Oh, anger my best friend
Why don’t you pull up an easy chair
You can’t save anyone else
You can’t save me from myself

Please don’t shout
It’s only anger that you’re waking
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening, no

Please don’t shout
It’s my patience that you’re wasting
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening

I’m not listening
I’m not listening
Stop your shouting
I’m not listening

If only I could release
Instead of talking to myself
Every feeling that I have
Would you bury all my doubts

But you can’t walk in my shoes
Every mile just feels like two
I won’t keep explaining
I won’t keep on trying
So what if I’m hiding
You’re giving me a headache…

Please don’t shout
It’s only anger that you’re waking
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening, no

Please don’t shout
It’s my patience that you’re wasting
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening

Please don’t shout

Oh no

Behind every closed door lies another room
Waiting there for you
Should I open up Pandora’s other box
Like she wanted me to
Outside the time and space we share
E always equals MC squared

Don’t you know

Nothing ever tastes quite as good
Quite as sweet
As it does the first time
Yeah, the first time
Nothing ever felt quite as bad
Quite as sad
As it did the last time

Building castles on quicksand
Wearing out all the emperor’s new clothes
Reaching down through the looking glass
Where am I on the yellow brick road
Always ending where I began
Adam loved Eve, the original sin

Don’t you know

Nothing ever tastes quite as good
Quite as sweet
As it does the first time
Yeah, the first time
Nothing ever felt quite as bad
Quite as sad
As it did the last time
In the Law of diminishing returns
But will I live long enough to learn?

Don’t you know?

I don’t think you know
I don’t think you know

I know I know what I said
I know I know what I said the first time
Yes the first time

I hope that this won’t be
I hope that this ain’t the last time
It feels like the first

Nothing ever tastes quite as good
Quite as sweet
As it does the first time
Yeah, the first time
Nothing ever feels quite as bad
Quite as sad
As it did the last time

Nothing tastes that good
Nothing ever tastes that good
Nothing ever tastes that good
Nothing tastes like it should

Don’t you know

It’s only 13 hours till I leave the ground
And I may never come down again
So will you meet me there on a ride somewhere
Just turn left at the sun, before it sets
Let’s go naked, would you dare?

You, you, send me flying, you send me flying
You send me flying, knocking me over,
You, you send me flying, you send me flying,
You send me flying, flying
Over the moon for joy.

I don’t want to make a fool of myself,
Especially since you’re with someone else,
Outwardly demure I would die for you,
Will you forgive my inclination to tell,
I throw my wishes down your wishing well,
I want you now, in a non too subtle way,
Do you want me too?
So will you meet me there, on a ride some-where,
Just go right at the moon, before it moves
Lets go naked, would you dare?

You, you, send me flying, you send me flying
You send me flying, knocking me over,
You, you send me flying, you send me flying,
You send me flying, flying
Over the moon for joy.

You send me flying,
You send me flying,
You send me flying

You, you, send me flying, you send me flying
You send me flying, knocking me over,
You, you send me flying, you send me flying,
You send me flying, flying over the moon
for joy.

Oh, how does it feel
Making love to me like you do

Tell me
Who would you be, would you be me
The woman in me, would you like to be
Under my skin
I’ll let you in
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I want,
I wanna know what you’re feeling
I wanna crawl under your skin
I wanna know how you feel in me
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Naked, oh I like you naked
And when I fake it, you like me more
Exploring, the taste I’m touching
I know you’re watching, I’m watching too, Yeah

I wanna know how you feel in me
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Tell me

Tell me
Would you like to be me
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Just a few words too many
In my head
A few words too many
In this bed
A few words too many
Left unsaid
Oh I wish that we were strangers
We could start again
All over again

A broken shadow falls across your face
As you hesitate
Trying to think of all the things you need to say
Bare face the truth lies at my feet
As you turn away
Sometimes silence has a way of making peace
I’d been hoping for a happy ending
Now I knew that there won’t be any…

Just a few words too many
In my head
A few words too many
In this bed
A few words too many
Left unsaid
Oh I wish that we were strangers
We could start again
All over again

Staring at the ceiling
Wondering just what you’re feeling
was it me
or was it you
what’s the difference
If I knew
Maybe I wouldn’t feel so empty

If I had heard a few words too many
In my head
A few words too many
In this bed
A few words too many
Left unsaid

Oh I wish that we were strangers
We could start again
Start again
Start all over again

We could start again
We could start again

Round and round and round and round
In my head, yeah…
