Let Go

​In the dark
Lights are low
Saturday night
You talk
You smile again

Well I suppose 
That it's a natural thing
Natural thing

Let go
Let go

Its real - It's real

Satellites on
In airwaves
Transformation too
I know I know I see
I look I look at how 
You talk
You say words again
And I see stars sparkle when I look at you
Well to have and to hold
It's a natural thing
Natural thing

Step in 
Set yourself up
Relax
Reload
Let yourself go 

Step in 
Set yourself up
Relax
Reload
Let yourself go 

Let go
Let go
Pack On Your Back

You've got a pack on your back
Got a big road ahead
You've got the way that you look 
You got a

Well you scream out aloud 
Like a fish on a line
And maybe it's true well

When you go away
I'll read the book you gave me
Then I will know
About your town - About your world
About the way you were when
When you were mine 
When we were together and everything was

We do our best to keep you satisfied
Walk right round everyday
I know I know I know 
I look I look I look
In your direction
Emotion
Commotion
Your promotion

I suppose it's a very strange town
Have a laugh will you have a laugh
Have a laugh will you have a laugh
Have a laugh will you
Ever laugh 
Oh - have a laugh

Pack on your back
Big road ahead 
Way that you look
Street stars ahead

When you go away
I'll read the book you gave me
Then I will know
About your town - About your world
About the way you were when
When you were mine 
When we were together and everything was
You know we were doing it
We were doing it right

Well you walk like a ghost
And your hands do the talking
Because we were doing it
We were doing it right
Sad And Blue

Well I can tell
By the way
You surprise me
With your dreams and your believing
Well I can tell
By the tone
Of your voice that you're alone
With the stars
On a Saturday night

I see you more now
I see you more now

Well I can tell
By the way
You derive so much
Anxiety from a questioner
Well I can tell
By the tone of your voice that you're alone
With the stars 
On a Saturday night

Because you walk on
Talking down - Talking down
That broken way
With your heart so dangerously open
Sad and blue

Sad and blue
Sad and blue
Sad
And blue
Never Say Die

You make me want to cry
All of the time
All the time

The hole in my shoe
Is letting me down
The girl that I knew 
Is leaving town

I hope that you
You get my message
I lost you a fool I was
I know 

You make me want to cry
But never say die
Never say die 
Never say die
Never day die

Lost in your delicate ways
I never thought that I would feel this way
The past lives on and on too real
All of the time - standing still
Waiting for a sign
You know what I mean

You make me want to cry
But never say die
Never say die
Never say die
Never say die
Winter Sun

Looking for a golden key
Looking for a chance to see
Searching for the Winter sun
Looking for the Winter sun

When at last the work is done
And the truth is in disguise
Searching for the one you love
Look into the mystery

When you come home to the fire
You can see the lies they've done
Working for the factory
See what they took away from me

Love Like This

I don't know how you got my love
I don't know when I'm going to learn
A love like this can never die
A love like this can never die

There must be something I can do
There must be something I can say
There must be somewhere I can go
There must be something down this road

I built my house out of the rain out in the sun
I told my friends that I had never heard of pain
A love like this can never 
A love like this can never die

I don't know how you got my love
It was not written in the stars
I was not ready for the test
I don't know when I'm going to learn

A love like mine can never die
A love like this can never die

There must be something I can do
There must be somewhere I can go
There must be something I can say
To turn this sand into land

Glad It's Over  (Included as a bonus track on the later re-release in CD format and digital format in 2011)

I'm Glad its over
Now the pain can fade
So glad it's over
Now the feelings fade

I've never been in love but I thought I had
Maybe it will happen
Maybe it won't
So glad it's over
Now the pain can fade
I'm so sorry - for the mess I've made

I believe in good - I know I should
I'm waiting for justice - I feel misunderstood
Somebody loved me - But I didn't know
Somebody taught me - But I didn't grow
So glad its over - Now the pain can fade
You have shown me - A way from the grave

If you loved me - You didn't let it show
You put it in a message - I could not decode
Yes I've been in love - But I didn't know
It's pulling my heartstrings - but it doesn't show

No it's never over
The pain is here 
It's not over - although the feelings fade
