SPACE TO FEEL LYRICS
SHIPS IN THE NIGHT
I lost you the moment we met
Maybe you felt the same
Paralysed while the feelings running wild inside
why did you come by just to say
That it’s too late or too soon
But your heart is still so curious of mine
Even if it's not sane or if we both lose
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
I was raised by the woods and you say
you grew up near the sea
By the shoreline and the open fields of green
We’re like ships in the night, it seems
That it’s too late or too soon
But your heart is still so curious of mine
Even if it's not sane or if we both lose
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
Finding you feels like finding me
Losing you before I knew
Is it too late or too soon?
your heart is still so curious of mine
Even if it's not sane or if we both lose
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
I’ve been wondering where you were all this time
I lost you the moment we met
Maybe you felt the same
AVALON
Once forgotten, never was
though today I remembered us
Down by the valley Avalon
a soft breeze, the spring had just begun
How we felt this world at ease
for once our skies were clear, bright at peace
Come take us with you
to where your mind goes
I’ll be with you all the way
up the Thor you would spell out
why life’s such a chore
oh how I came to believe you
more and more
A stranger to myself I seem
when remembering who I used to be back then
you in your hat, me wearing grey
I lost my colours, more day by day
The wonders of a time now long ago
comes back in a new light as we’ve grown
Come take us with you
to where your mind goes
I’ll be with you all the way
up the Thor you would spell out
why life’s such a chore
oh how I came to believe you
more and more
Come take me with you
I want to know where you go
I’ll be with you all the way
Up the Thor I would debate
what’s worth staying for
oh how I couldn’t convince myself anymore
EARTH
All is clear, say it could be worse
but no one tells us what to do
would you put this first
would life let you?
How to save air and earth
go write the rules to obey
we make it up, we think we know
how to live and make our way
Due to be, life as great
and short as it seem to be
you and me, we're as great
but small and dim to see
Spend this time for what it is
with what we have and what you miss
we won't know when it goes
write it fast and read it slow
Due to be, life as great
and short as it seem to be, to be
you and me, we're as great
though still small and dim to see
When the sun won't break the cloud covered sky
it would all be clear for me, for you, there is no time
Due to be, life continues and grows as it is to be, to be
you and me, we'll continue and grow to learn to see, to see
Due to be, life continues and grows as it is to be, to be
you and me, we'll continue and grow to learn to see, to see
REEF
Adrift below, I rock against the reef
I’ve lost myself to the currents underneath
A sea of soil, from where I arose
I can not control
I’m not the one you chose
How can I remain - nothing’s the same out here
How can we unfold - to be something worthier
Caught on a reef
Caught by the reef
Been overboard to fight against the waves
Left unmoored and free to misbehave
My heart’s a wreck, a blight too many souls
Now tied to the deck - I’m what I can’t control
How can I remain - nothing’s the same out here
How can we unfold - to be something worthier
How could I explain - nothing’s the same to me you see
how can this unfold - it’s not what it ought to be
not what it ought to be
Caught on a reef
Caught by the reef
How can I remain - nothing’s the same out here
How can we unfold - to be something worthier
How could I explain - nothing’s the same to me you see
how can this unfold - it’s not what it ought to be
not what it ought to be
Caught on a reef
Caught by the reef
SIGNS
They say I've changed
I’d say things change
it's not on us to choose
sometimes I wish to stay the same
feel at home – be safe
though life never wants us to
New signs will show how to find it
somehow these days seems behind me
Wait for it, hold it
my mind dwells empty still open
For a short spell
The uncertain holds us
Will we be the same
when this all change
A new set of thoughts
seasons come and gone
it's not on us to choose
I knew there would be a turning corner
now I feel I'm becoming younger growing older
Wait for it, hold it
my mind dwells empty still open
For a short spell
The uncertain holds us
Will we be the same
when this all change
Wait for it, hold it my time dwells
empty I’m open for a short spell
uncertainty takes all of me
I know nothing of what I will be
They say we changed
I’d say things change
it's not on us to choose
ISLAND
I’ve been standing too far out
Kept my eyes on the horizon
Out of place wherever I go
Apart from here - alone on this island
But then comes the spring tide, I miss the cue each time
Would you pull me in
when the world draws closer
where we all begin
Stay, let it wash over
over and over
At night these dreams come to me
Telling I have all the rights to be
overwhelmed with a wandering mind
working hard to focus on the now
Would you pull me in
when the world draws closer
where we all begin
Stay, let it wash over
over and over
I’ve been standing too far out, in the water
Kept my eyes on the horizon
alone on this island
HOW IT’S SUPPOSED TO FEEL
You give me nothing
no nothing but facts
You've tried to text me
about how you've looked back
but no excuse, none of your blues I've seen
How come you let things fall apart
each time someone tries to open up your heart
you say it's just you, it's London
is it not?
Our last night by your house in the rain
yes just like in a movie you said
you would always feel this way
forgetting though it's London
nothing stays the same
I saw you leaving
holding your head so high
you had deleted my number
before we’d even said good bye
you say it's not you, it's London
then what am I?
Still you give me nothing
no nothing but facts
how it's supposed to feel, I won't buy in to that
it's just you, it's London
is it not?
it's not me, it's London
is it not?
GOODLUCK
These bleak walls, the mundane
there’s this glow outside on the window pane
the sky paints new clouds for us
I’ve been waiting by the window long enough
Have we brought this upon ourselves?
have we not listened?
Do you believe in good luck?
There’s a hundred ladybirds in our backyard
I should believe in good luck
Then maybe our time will come
Our time will come
The leaves, the trees all show one thing
You have to sway along with the wind
A seasonal dance it seems
I want to learn those steps to be released
Do you believe in good luck?
There’s a hundred ladybirds in our backyard
I should believe in good luck
Then maybe our time will come
Our time will come
These bleak walls are not the same
The glow outside has come to stay
So I wont believe a word they say
The doctors report, the x-rays
Now I will believe in good luck
there’s a hundred ladybirds in our backyard
Now when we believe in good luck
Then our time will come
I believe our time will come
ENOUGH
Not good enough for you
Am I enough for me now?
At least I’m well and I’m pleased now
With the way it is
I do my best for you
I’ll keep my mind still
I’ll be kind and cool and try, try
Hope to let you in
Hope to let it in
Unaware of what to find
You take my mind off my mind
That’s all I have - that’s all you get
Spent all my time worrying
Cause who would want me now
Am I worst at the finish line?
Where it all begun
Where we begun
Unaware of what to find
You take my mind off my mind
That’s all I have - that’s all you get
When all I have is all you get
Is that enough for you? For you
Is that enough for you?
I’m good enough for you
Is that enough for me too?
EVERY DAY HOLDS A PROMISE
Our shadows grew tall
and blue bound behind our backs
Just a flare of a heartbeat
a written note is all I have left
Though every line holds a promise, a sigh
with every line it comes back
it comes back
First day of spring
the absence of our return
now I never wait for anything
with nature I bloom, I will learn
That every day holds a promise, a sigh
with every day it comes back
it comes back
Our shadow’s grown old
Still I recall us in every line
words faded from a note
what was said - once written - never mine
Though every day holds a promise, a sigh
with every day it comes back
it comes back
it comes back
I’ll come back
