would you like to dance?

hey man i just wanna get back home now... home
if i could just be so strong now... i could fly
i can’t breathe in here... and i can’t find you here
i can’t breathe in this place... i just wanna go back home now
if i was to leave tomorrow... would it still be the same
i’ll stay just one more day...

i just wanna dance
would you like to dance?
would you like to dance?
we’ll be all overjoyed

these old broken dreams... of mine
couldn’t ever be the same way now... in my heart
but all these dreams could loved... till they’re gone
if i was to leave tomorrow... would it still be the same
but let’s take on one more day now...

would you like to dance?
would you like to dance?
would you like to dance?
we’ll be all overjoyed

11th house north node

i’ll watch your eyes... i’ll watch your eyes
deep inside they smile
wouldn’t it be nice just to be loved
wouldn’t it be nice just to be loved
watch how they smile
see how they smile
see how they smile
they smile with and at you
wouldn’t it be nice just to be loved
wouldn’t it be nice just to be loved

i can’t believe that it’s happening again
again and again
i’m so in love i’m so in deep
and it’s its happening again again

see how they glow... see how you glow
deep inside you’re loved
don’t you know you can’t make me sad
don’t you know you can’t make me sad

i can’t believe that it’s happening again
again and again
i can’t believe that it’s happening again
again and again
i’m so in love i’m so in deep
and it’s its happening again again

what’s behind a smile

when we first met there seemed so much to share
we had a few drinks and a laugh
and we pretended to care
i recognize that you’re not my type
but still there’s things to say
why must we always get our own way
for a little while...
whats behind that smile
maybe a good time was all that was meant for now

there were so many drinks
and a good time was had by all
we had a few beers and a laugh
but then you never called
i recognize that you’re not my type
but still there’s things to say
why must we always get our own way
for a little while...
whats behind that smile
maybe a good time was all that was meant for now

bring you to your knees

i could be so near you sometimes
but still not hold you close
and i won’t let you touch my heart
and i just won’t let you know
and i just won’t let you know

some things were beautiful
perhaps wasn’t meant to be touched
maybe i’ll just scar you
or maybe i’ll just want too much
or maybe i’ll just want too much

what will take to bring you to your knees?
what will take to bring you to your knees?
what will take to bring you to your knees?
if i can’t then i’ll just leave

i can’t live without you
and i want you all for myself
and i’d rather just destroy
then see you with someone else

don’t look at me that way
like you always do
i’ll break your heart and throw it overboard
and i’ll do it smiling too
and i’ll do it smiling too

what will take to bring you to your knees?
what will take to bring you to your knees?
what will take to bring you to your knees?
if i can’t then i’ll just leave

wait for a lifetime

sometimes i just drown...
when there’s nobody left
when there’s nobody left around
can you hold me now?
even though... even though we’re not in love

hey... we can wait for a lifetime yeah
but who’s to know?
who’s to know when the timing’s right
i just wanna have some fun
and it’d be nice...
it’d be nice to hold someone

you can’t break my heart
there’s nothing left inside babe
you can’t break my heart
there’s nothing left inside babe

hey... if i have to leave today
who’s to know...
who’s to know when i’ll be back
you’re always on my mind
but i know...
i know love isn’t hard to find

hey... we can wait for a lifetime yeah
but who’s to know...
who’s to know when the timing’s right
i just wanna have some fun
and it’d be nice...
it’d be nice to hold someone

you can’t break my heart
there’s nothing left inside babe
you can’t break my heart
there’s nothing left inside babe

hey... we can wait for a lifetime yeah
but let’s take a chance...
let’s take a chance on love
i know i know you now
and we seem...
and we seem to get along

for today

she watches days go by
mostly when i’m not home
inside she’s breaking
she can’t be found

i’m bleeding through my skin
human once again
she’s falling far away
but it’s only for today
and so...
it’s only love
its fallen away

so slowly she fades and dies
send a shockwave through my life
touch me... do anything
show me your still alive

i’m bleeding through my skin
human once again
she’s falling far away
but it’s only for today
and so...
it’s only love
its fallen away

nadir point

some lonesome night
i’ll take my own life
i’ve been so away so long
i’ll be back home again in your arms

some nights get cold
‘till you hold someone warm
but then you realize
that you’d rather be at home in your bed

i’m back home again
i missed so much my dear
been away so long
i forgot where i came from (repeat)

scenelife

where do we go when the crowds go home
and the curtains and the lights go down
all the nights on the road
in the many different towns
all the lights start to fade into one

all the people that i meet
in this life, in this scene
sometimes i
i just wanna, i wanna go home
all the parties and the drinks
and the punks and the freaks
sometimes its just nice when the show’s done

end of a phase

i missed you for a long time
you’ve been gone for so long
maybe i left at the wrong time
but you should know my heart

hasn’t this been giving us so much weight
hasn’t this been giving us so much weight
hey hey hey dear
i think i’ve lost my way
hey hey hey love
i think i’ve lost my way

you say love lasts a lifetime
maybe the timing was wrong
there can never be next time
that we both know too well

hasn’t this been giving us so much weight
hasn’t this been giving us so much weight
hey hey hey dear
i think i’ve lost my way
hey hey hey love
i think i’ve lost my way

i thought that you were coming back home again
but then i realized it wasn’t that way
i thought that you were coming back home tonight
but then i realized it wasn’t that way

i missed you for a long time
you’ve been gone for so long
i didn’t go to your last rites
but you should know my heart
