Turn To You:
(Hill)

You ask me what I want but I don't know,
I want to scream and shout to stop the show

But hey look at you
When I look you in the eye,
You never say die
And it makes me want to cry
But when I turn to you

I cling to foreign sheets to save the day,
It makes me incomplete I've got to say.
But when I turn to you...

Tears are on your face
My head hung in disgrace
I'm the reason why you fall down every time
But I remember when
I see you now and then
And you fall down

When I turn to you.......

2's Company:
(Hill/ap Gwynedd)

Aching to siphon your senses,
I’m on the outside and peeking in.
Listen to the gut feeling,
It leaves me reeling and reels me in.

Set me free.
There’s a world out there waiting for us all,
I believe,
And my mind wonders to destiny,
Its rivers long and mountains tall
And meant to be.

I’m turning me in,
You turn me out,
My original sin I can’t do without.
In honesty, 2’s company.
Its plain to see, 2’s company.

Hard to believe it, I heard it was coming
But I won’t be running I’ll stay this time.
Got a new focus, its called understanding,
I’m hearing the music here in my mind

And my mind wonders to jealousy
Where rivers stop and mountains fall into the sea.

I’m turning me in,
You turn me out,
My original sin I can’t do without.
In honesty, 2’s company.
Its plain to see, 2’s company.

In honesty.

Don't Sail:
(Hill/ap Gwynedd)

Ok, so far, I've been waiting on an island lonely
Que sera, I got your hope its my one and only
Await reply, sent a message in a broken bottle
Your ship I spy, fires burning, its my beacon candle

Don't sail around me (don't sail around me)
Cause I won't be found here (not for someday)
Come run aground dear (we could be happy)
Don't sail around me, around me

You row ashore, kiss me in greeting
I discover heaven, its you I adore
But I'm dreaming, I'll have to wait forever

Winds change but I'm in sight
The currents strong but I'm gonna fight
Till your mine all mine, all mine, all mine.

Top

Slip past the water line plunge in to the world I know,
Hear silence all around me here I go with the flow.

Don't hold me under I'm coming up for air,
Like distant thunder soon I will be there.

I'm in too deep, don't let me drown,
I'm in too deep, rescue me now,
So hard to keep from fading out of sight,
I'm in too deep, come save my life.

I start to mouth the words but find I cannot speak
In my private universe but my arms are getting weak

This floating feeling please make it never end,
The ocean ceiling so far I can't pretend.

Don't hold me under I'm coming up for air,
Like distant thunder soon I will be there.

I'm in too deep.....

Crash Landed:
(Hill)

Lost in the void,
Its fresh and you know I want it.
Hope rises up,
I'm telling you its breaking hard.

She watched it crack
But you're here now, you're here now

Crash landed, crash landed
But you're here now, you're here now
Crash landed, crash landed

Saw shadows fall
But I find my own face in the crowd.
Come lead the way,
We're gonna run to the top and jump.

The call chime sounds
But you're here now, you're here now...

Now you've taken me so far away,
Give me relief from this wait this time,
So far away

Raincloud:
(Hill/ap Gwynedd)

Excursions to the heart don't come free
But in her face I saw pure honesty.
A faded vision frozen in my mind
Of melting memories and tears in her eyes.

But she's a raincloud and she's washing over me
Makes it hard to see the light.
She's a raincloud, it can't be good for me,
So why does she make me come alive?

I hear her whisper in every single breeze
'Please be with me for a thousand dreams'.
A ray of hope that guides me through the storm
So I'll be here until the break of dawn.

When she's moving on and its become another shade of gray
What's left behind I'll never find I'm ever gonna feel the same

If I could capture time in my hands,
If I could halt the hourglass sands,
I would put an end to all but laughter
A smile on your face forever after.

If I could catch the feather blown by the breeze,
If I could heal the wound that starts to bleed,
I'd give a hand to the man under newspaper,
Do all I can have a word to my maker.

But first I'd freeze frame this moment with you
And make it last
You know I'd freeze frame this moment with you
So please slow down, down go so fast.

If I could stop the water from the sky
If I could hold back the morning tide
I'd shout out to the world on a loud speaker
The message of love is what I would teach you

Sounds coming from the underground
Hearts leaving town I'd show
That I'd come running for you

If I could capture time in my hands
If I could halt the hourglass sands
I'd put an end to all but laughter
A smile on your face is all I'm after

If I could you know I would.

Come into the water where everything's fine,
Where we can turn blood to wine.
To come, that's what I taught her
Now she is mine, accomplice to my crime,

Shedding light to this black hole heart.

Faithfully crawling across that broken glass,
She's touching me tenderly
Helping to heal these faded scars.

Run into the fire, drawing me in,
I won't let it burn your skin.
Accuse me of being a liar,
Afraid of the truth,
Where can we hide the proof?

And we're circling like a satellite
Come into the water, into the fire,
Where everything's fine......

Sound of Goodbye:
(Hill/Gardiner/Woelfl)

I never thought the sun would shine again
And lonely clouds would settle in
But all the fools have gone
For they were wrong about
What the summer shower brings.

Glassy eyes and flowers on the floor,
A waiting cab and memories
To give a little more.
Our words are unresolved,
They're trapped in the folds
Of a book about the art of closing doors.

And I know that you might find me a little bit peculiar
But I'm the one who's supposed to be bringing back the cure.

So won't you just

Open your eyes and see
I'm falling around you
Just when I seemed to be floating in velvet skies
I'm hearing the sound of goodbye

My diary pages look so white and bare,
A passing glance could make you think
That I don't even care.
You couldn't be more wrong,
I've searched for so long
For you and me and what we had before.

And there's times late at night
When the ghost of you comes calling
And though I try to hold you tight
You always slip through by the morning.

Who's to say you won't be back again,
Until that day I'll keep falling....

Top

Well I was under your influence when I hit the wall,
Like a messed up junkie I came back for more
Remove the blindfold so I can see the way we came
From here it all looks the same the same the same.

I'll never say I ain't been hurt falling
The price you pay will never be worth more than the ride

But when I jumped I flew and it was then I knew
You were always gonna be the last thing on my mind
And as you fade away, I see the light of day
And you were always gonna be the last thing on my mind

So if you're not looking for trouble don't wear that dress
Now your little toes pink and your hairs a mess
Lets make a move c'mon show me a sign
Scream it out loud you're mine, you're mine, you're mine.

Lost my way on my hands and knees crawling
And I pray that you hear me calling out

You were always gonna be the last thing on my mind......
