Come In From The Cold

Hold me, tender, clasp me tight
Come In from the cold tonight

Baby let me warm you through
listen to me - I love you

I never meant to hurt you - let me kiss your tears
I never wanna be a reason for your fears
Why do we wound each other - needlessly
Why do we lose each other - hopelessly

Why waste another moment - together we belong
O to wipe away the past years
where we went so wrong
Include me please in your tomorrow,
there I really wanna be
I will love you. I will follow, endlessly

Hold me...

this is a new beginning - we can start again
let's give ourselves a season for the healing to begin
I love you without question
darling take me at my word
See the dawn on the horizon, baby have you heard

Include me please in your tomorrow
There I really wanna be
I will love you, I will follow, endlessly

Hold me...


Traveller in Time

I am a traveller in time
I need some help to find my way
My body's cold and I am thirsty - believe me
It's hard to face another day

The passing years have left me tired
The path I've trodden much alone
Sometimes I feel a little broken-hearted
Inside I long to turn back home

Where is the song I used to sing
Where is the joy inside mg soul
Where is the life I should he living
When will you come and make me whole

My conversations leave me weary
Seems I have little left to say
The expectations - well they scare me, truly
I want the child in me to stay

Where is the song I used to sing...

You always promised you'd be there
O how I'm longing to be free
I may not be worthy but I'm forgiven
Then will you come and cover me


This Close to You

Every tear has its ocean
every flower its sun
each heart has its journey
mine has only just begun

you fill me with wonder
that love can make it through
and I will move mountains
I know wat I want from you

I Know what I want
I know what your touch awakens in me
Know what I need feel it's coming true

I know what I want
Know what I need
Know what I love on you
Oh I know when I look
I know what I see in you
I know who I am
I know what I feel
When I'm this close to you
Oh I know what I want
I know I'm in love with you

There are skies to conquer
Rainbows to climb
I lived a part of everyones dream
Trying to make it mine

I was sure forever
Never would come true
That's when I heard you whisper -
I know what I want from you

I know what I want...

No more tears
Every flower to open
Every journey with you love

I know what I want...


Music and Madness

This is some story whispers my soul
I'm staring through midnight reaching for gold
All these wars on the street that I breathe every day
Without you to live for I'd simply waste away

Kissed by the moonlight lost in the sea
Of these fragile emotions you awaken in me

Weaving your magic - silent as stars
This music and madness say who we are

The rhythm of words - perfect conversation
The consequences of this - too serious to mention

O, what can I say
As softly as sunlight welcomes the day

As tender and warm as the sound of your name
Are the lips that will answer again and again

Kissed by your reflection in the turbulent sea
Of these naked emotions you awaken in me

Weaving your magic - silent as the stars
This music and madness say who we are

The rhythm of our words - the singing in our laughter
Breathless in your arms - lost in one another


Ghosts

Infants and Angels

I saw you today in black and white lines
one fragile heart beating in time

the rhythm of life caught in a frame
soon you will hearr me whisper your name

your life will shape me
I'll be your guide
Soon you will waken
With me at your side
There can be nothing
Could ever compare
With this love for stranger
Whose lifetime I'll share

Whoever you are - this promise I make
I will dream for each moment
Of the journey we take

As I laugh through the starlight - cry for the dawn
And ache for the moment I hold you

I watched you today - just one of the crowd
Prayed for protection - bewildered yet proud

breath of tomorrow - story untold
the path you will follow lime will unfold

your life will shape me...

A will defend you
wherever you go
for your armour is fragile
but one thing I know

whoever you are...


Fire and Ice

Kiss for the children - these were the days
old dreams and photographs see how they fade
the times and the seasons have hidden us well
am I dancing or running - It's so hard to tell

love is fire and ice - innocence page such a price
somewhere I'll find what was there at the start
who stole the smile on the face of the child
in my heart?

mother come close now - sing me to sleep
I'm sure there's a promise we all meant to keep
we're all meant to grow up looking good in the frame
I'm not waving but drowning all over again

love is fire and ice - innocence pays such a price
I'm looking for something - It was there at the start
who stole the smile from the face of the child
in my heart?

that's me in the corner with my head upon my hands
or maybe I'm the one who's trying to..
fire and ice

love is fire and ice - innocence such a price


Where Your River Flows

Look inside me search me through and know me,
feel your way back home

I can't tell you - for you wouldn't hear me
you are not alone

with these silent words
I have truly heard your heart

O don't exclude me - don't refuse me,
let me play my part

walking by you - standing proud beside you
man to man and child to child

these are moments - memories to savour
this place can seem to hard to find

and I love you so
I will always follow where you go

O how we stumble on this journey
where your river flows

and when this crazy world just leaves us spinning
hold me tight lest we should fall

sometimes I need your strength to keep me standing
need your laughter and your hope before me

the darkness sometimes scares me too
but I will always follow you

O how we stumble


Sure and Certain Love

You move me to tears of wonder
loving me by letting me go
how you knew I'd return
like a moth to a flame
I don't know

I must have thought leaving was easy
I never once looked behind
where on earth was I going
that the light in your heart
would not find

enfold me - sure and certain love
O enfold me - what was I thinking of
with every moment I know where I wanna be
enfold me in your sure and certain love

you bathed me In tears so tender
waiting for the deepest of sighs
all the rage and fight
it was caught in the light
of your ages

enfold me..

strange friends - silent passions
I've been through it all
where the road runs out - where the pieces fall -
all I've known is hunger for the healing to begin
for the sweet enfolding only you can bring

enfold me...


Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day:
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the fast wave by, crying how bright
their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight.
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and he gay.
Rage. rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, A pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage. rage against the dying of the light.


Intimate Strangers

Why don't I run to you, why don't I cry
long before I see you - the tears have already dried
so very very often - like a rusty machine
locked into patterns that so very long have been

written in stone - almost like rules
this sort of behaviour really belongs to fools
you know me so well - you hardly know me at all
I keep my distance - you hurt when I fall

How long - how long must we remain
Intimate strangers
See the places we can hide
Hear the questions from the heart of lov
Feel the longings of a bewildered child

lately I feel your tentative touch
this hesitation reveals how easily crushed
the fear behind that faltering smile
the longing for no more hidden denial

sometimes my heart is bursting with stories to tell
but how does she break free from this cold prison cell
confined to chosen solitary
refusing the lover waiting for me

how long, how long must we remain...

How long, how long must we return
Like intimate strangers
To the places where we hide
Hear the questions from this heart of love
Feel the longings of this bewildered child
