Could Have Been
03:36
|
|||
|
I wanted to say 'I miss you now, how good we were for each other'.
I wanted to say 'I'm lonely now and wish we'd stayed together'.
But looking back. What a waste of time.
Looking back. What a waste of time.
The moment has passed and all that is left are ashes of regret.
If only I'd told you, if only I'd said I loved you with all of my heart
Could have been, could have been, could have been so good
Could have been, could have been, could have been so good
etc

Oops a Daisy
03:08
|

|
have you ever, did you never kiss a frog?
well I did, it wasn't worth it and it did not make him a prince.
have you ever, did you never live on the hamster wheel
with no way, no way to get off? no way to get off!
hop la, c'est bizarre
la vie quotidienne est folle, c'est drole, imprevisible
so very unpredictable.
have you ever, did you never push that boulder to the top of the hill
and it just rolled right back down again?
oh it just rolled right back down again.
oops a daisy, life is crazy. life is mad
oops a daisy, life is crazy. life is mad. it's so mad.

Small Child
04:56
|
|||
|
deep within ourselves lies the real me
but we hide it like the oyster's grain of sand
our vulnerability, that no-one else can see
no-one else can see, no-one else can
see me, see me, hear me
see me, see me, hear me
inside every one of us is a small child
inside every one of us is a small child
a small child who seeks love
a small child who needs love
seeks love, wants love, needs love
seeks love, wants love, needs la la la la love
la la la la love
sorry that I hurt you - couldn't tell you any other way
I'm sorry.
so sorry that I hurt you but I couldn't tell you any other way
I'm sorry - hurt your small child
whisper, whisper, whisper, whisper
hide in the corner, you're a small child
you got no voice - you small child
got no voice - such a small child
see me, see me, hear me
see me, see me, hear me
see me, see me, hear me
see me, see me, hear me
oh, see me, see me, hear me
why don't you hear me?

Heaven
03:16
|
|||
|
Sid was such a special boy, made me laugh out loud
filled my heart with joy
but it's not easy to explain, not easy to explain
he was the youngest in a long list
I loved him so
my special boy
that's not easy to explain, not easy to explain
if you've never had a four legged friend
it might be hard for you to comprehend
that I don't want to go to heaven if they don't let cats and dogs in
say no to birds and dolphins
I don't want to go, don't want to go to heaven.
I don't want to go to heaven if they don't let cats and dogs in
say no to birds and dolphins
would you want to go? I don't want to go to heaven.
I don't want to go, I don't want to go
no I don't want to go to heaven.

Music is Sunshine

music is sunshine, music is sunshine, sunshine
coming to you, moving through you
makes you who you need to be
conversations, observations
moves you to that higher plane
takes you to that place, your special space
where time suspends

Laugh
03:06

dog made me laugh, I shared that with others
only you, only you can make me cry
dog made me laugh, I shared that with hundreds of facebook friends
only you, only you can make me cry
laugh and the world laughs with you
cry and you'll cry alone
laugh and the world laughs with you
doo doo doo doo doo doo
laugh and the world laughs with you
don't want to cry alone
laugh and the world laughs with you
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
everybody loves to laugh, it's our spoonful of sugar
but there are times when the tears have to fall
oh everybody loves to laugh so spread a little sunshine, share that joy
and when it happens, let those tears roll down
laugh and the world laughs with you
cry and you'll cry alone
laugh and the world laughs with you
doo doo doo doo doo doo
laugh and the world laughs with you
don't want to cry alone
laugh and the world laughs with you
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Lonely People
03:20
|
|||
|
I was reading a book the other day
about everyday people and the roles they all play
well that's when it hit me, kind of blew me away
there's an epidemic in the world today
there are so many lonely people
so many people with so much to give
you're bound to know some of these people
just like me and you they all have lives to live
maybe it's your sister, maybe it's your brother
these are our daughters and our sons
let's talk about forgiveness
love and understanding
things that really matter to everyone
try to be present
to be there when they need you
learn to really listen to their unspoken words because
there are too many lonely people
so many people with so much to give
you're bound to know some of these people
just like me and you they all have lives to live

Choices
03:42
|
|||
|
should have told you what was in my heart
instead of what was on my tongue
should have said it from the very start
now it's a song, unsung
it's really strange how we only make changes when we understand what's gone before
but in the moment, that fleeting moment
we usually do what we've been programmed for
choices that we make, turnings that we take
choices, choices
if you make a mistake it might not be too late to choose a different path
oh, I've got this feeling, need to believe it doesn't have to be this way
it's oh so strange how we only change when we understand what's gone before
but in that fleeting moment we usually do what we've been programmed for
choices that we make, turnings that we take
choices, choices
it can be so hard, it can be so hard to choose, it can be hard to choose
do you believe it? do you believe it?
so hard to choose.

Keyboard Warriors
03:21
|
|||
|
most of us contribute to environmental crime
we'd love to help, we really would but we haven't got the time
haven't got the time to spare but consciences are salved
by being keyboard warriors, being keyboard warriors, by being keyboard warriors
where we going wrong? where we going wrong?
got to offer some assistance for the sake of the world
to open our eyes and realise that it's all going horribly wrong
going horribly wrong
would have called the doctor if all I needed was some pills
would have called an ambulance to try to fix my ills
all the rescue services were waiting for my call
but when I got through to the government they just didn't care at all
where we going wrong? where we going wrong?
there's still time to save this fabulous world we're living in
beg the younger generation 'please forgive our sins'
we've got to work together, something must be done
so come on you keyboard warriors,
come on you keyboard warriors
let's all be keyboard warriors and turn this all around
and stop what's going wrong
stop what's going wrong
for the sake of the world.....
got to stop it right now!

Deep Peace
04:09
|
|||
|
I know somewhere out there you're not alone
I know somewhere out there you're not alone
deep peace of the running wave to you
deep peace of the quiet beach to you
deep peace of the flowing air to you
deep peace of the shining stars to you
hoping, wishing, praying you've found your peace
hoping, wishing, praying you've found your peace
longing for you to find
deep peace of the running wave, the quiet beach,
the flowing air, the shining stars,
the sleeping stones, the wandering wind
the gentle night
I know you're not alone, I know you're not alone..........
