Wake Up Call

Another morning,
Another brand new day
Still I'm stuck in this rut
Got me thinking
Maybe it’s time for a change
Time for me to get out
I think I'll just pack up
And get away
So far from all these
Mundane yesterdays
I’ll just lay back and watch the clouds
Swirl and twirl around and round
In the endless sky
Oh-oh-oh
Call me crazy
But I don’t wanna live
Without having
Lived at all
Just a spectator
But now I see
The time has come
This is my wakeup call
Like Houdini, I’ll just leave
There won’t be a trace left of me
Don’t wanna weigh my mind down
No, I’ll just go
Don’t try to stop me, my mind’s made up
You keep repeating the same old stuff
But I think I’ve had enough
And so...
I think I'll just pack up
And get away
So far from all these
Mundane yesterdays
I’ll just lay back and watch the clouds
Swirl and twirl around and round
In the endless sky
Oh-oh-oh

My Boy My All

Holding hands, not a chance
Forget him asking you to dance
But when his mood is right I know
That up’s the only way I’ll go
His flair for art, his loving heart,
The way he twists at tufts of hair,
And how he makes my stomach knot
Even though he’s nowhere near
Even though he’s nowhere near
Frustrating yet endearing
I know I cannot be without
My lover-boy, my puzzle,
My equal, my all
If you’d only stop fussing
Long enough to see what’s there
You’d know it’s all for nothing
You’d see how much I care
Though you think you’re not good enough
And though you drive me up the wall
I can’t be without you
My lover, my all
Like a wound that keeps on bleeding,
His defence is always up
Though I long for him to trust me
What I do is never enough
Though I try to convince you
What I say is the truth
You just keep second guessing
Nothing ever gets through
Frustrating yet endearing
I know I cannot be without
My lover-boy, my puzzle,
My equal, my all
If you’d only stop fussing
Long enough to see what’s there
You’d know it’s all for nothing
You’d see how much I care
Though you think you’re not good enough
And though you drive me up the wall
I can’t be without you
My lover, my all
We might not always agree
But in the end I know for sure
I can’t be without you
My lover boy, my all

For a Moment

For a moment
Just a moment
Let the world go by
Without you
Just take a step back
From the commotion
Take a moment
To drown out the noise
And if you try
You will find
The world still turns
Around the Sun so why
Are we so worried
Our lives too hurried
We sometimes go so fast
We miss the signs
So take a step back
Before you lose track
Of all the moments
That make life worthwhile
‘Cos if you try
You will find
The world still turns
Around the Sun so why
Are we so worried
Our lives too hurried
We sometimes go so fast
We miss the signs
So now you’ve got to try
To take a moment just to look around
Forget the past, today - it won’t last
And try not to think of what’s to come
Just hold on to the here and now
Before you find you are too far gone...
For a moment
Just a moment
Let the world go by
Without you

A feeling that words just can't describe
Time stands still for a while
Troubles become
A distant memory
I close my eyes but still I see
All that's happening around me
From my fears
I am breaking free
Everything comes to life
In its own time...
Maybe mine has arrived
I'm letting my worries subside
On this sun-soaked
Island in the sea
The Sun warms me to my bones
The cool breeze caresses my face
It's like I'm wrapped
In a heavenly embrace
It seems that all that’s surrounding me
Is in perfect harmony
I've finally found
Somewhere I can just be
Everything comes to life
In its own time...
Maybe mine has arrived
I'm letting my worries subside
On this sun-soaked
Island in the sea
I can't get enough of this (x3)
Of this blissful feeling
x4
On this sun-soaked island in the sea!
