Nothing's all mine
I get my inspiration from you
My loneliness from her
My sickness from god knows who
Sometimes when I'm bored
I wish i lived my life everyday
Like a character in Garcia Marquez or Hemingway
Self control is not the answer (x2)
I just need you, I just need you

Nothing's all right
There's depression in my brain
Hunger in my soul
Unemployment in my heart
A little dark cloud filled with sorrow
Can be here today and bigger tomorrow
Peace of mind is not the answer
A good paying job is not the answer
I just need you I just need you

And if I was made in the shade
I'll be destroyed in the sunshine
Nothing's all mine
All my knowledge turns to doubting
All my doubting turns to guessing
All my hobbies turn to habits
All my habits turn to obsessions
All my secrets turn to confessions
And heaven is just farther and farther and farther away

Everything's gonna be fine is not the answer
All my friends and family are not the answer
I just need you, I just need you

And if I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth
I'll probably die with a silver knife in my spine
Nothing's all mine

I surrender, I give up
I can't quench your fire love
Go on without me, I'm not strong enough
I can't quench your fire love

I give you all I have
But that's still not much to you
On this island of this sinking sand
You're the only one with your feet on the ground

So go on without me
But free me from these handcuffs
'Cause I can't quench your fire love

I give you all I have
But that's still not much to you
On this island of this your sinking sand
You're the only one with your feet on the ground

So go on without me
But free me from these handcuffs
You know that I can't quench your fire love
Fire love (x2)

I look at the cloud, I see through the tree
I can barely see the moon from here or hear wind blow
But the pain
I don't wanna stay alive much longer than I have to
When you're not with me 
What's the sense in living?

The wind blows again
The cactus' in summertime bloom again
They breathe in deserts but I can't
They bloom in deserts but I can't
All I can do is hear wind blow

But the pain
Never lets me start over again
I don't wanna stay alive much longer than I have to
When you're not with me 
Tell me, what's the sense in living?
I can see the shadow of my cat
I see fences losing dead paint
I think of you and your soft arm

But the pain
Never lets me start over again
I don't wanna stay alive much longer than I have to
When you're not with me
What's the sense in living?
Wild leaves are being born
Sometimes I feel like I'm hanging on a thorn from your rose bush
The angle of your eyebrow is all I need to see
To notice if you're smiling or crying at the

At the pain
Never lets me start over again
All the, all the pain
I don't wanna stay alive much longer than I have to
When you're not with me
What's the sense in living? (x2)

Slow while I shed skin answer me this question
How much does your heart beat for me?
Push me then you pull me, tell me baby, truly
How much does your heart beat for me?

Carnival rides and the tunnel of love
Why don't let me hold you?
On the outside looking in on your love
You're mocking all I told you

You know I'm not too clever don't make me guess forever
How much does your heart beat for me?
I live in anguish I can't speak your language
How much does your heart beat for me?

Kiss me then you kill me, but you never feel guilty
How much does your heart beat for me?
Merry go rounds and the palm reader girls
Say my loveline meets my lifeline

On the inside looking out of your world
I'm waiting for the right time
But you know I'm not too clever don't make me guess forever
How much does your heart beat for me?

Everyday I love you more, slowly falling for you (x2)
Will you leave me when the circus leaves town, laughing on the outside
Soul of a queen with the face of a clown, crying on the inside

Must you be so cryptic can't you be more specific?
How much does your heart beat for me?
Will you give me real love or do I have to steal love?
How much does your heart beat for me?

Coming soon.....

Sometimes I wish I were invisible, I do
Stroke your soft hair, and you'd think it was the wind blowing by
Kiss your neck and you'd think it was the wing of a butterfly
I'd steal bluebonnets of the side of highway 35
But in reality, I'm as worthless as a dime in a jewelery store
For bits and pieces of you, I'm a scavenger
If your lips were money, you'd be Rockafeller
That's why when you're gone dear, I'm so poor
Baby, when you're gone dear, I am so poor

Coming soon.....

Canopies and circuses
Came to me in dreams of you
Came to me spinning through
Rejoicing at the thought of 
winning you and your love
Inspiration says to me 
kiss the way you kissed 
when you found her
Watch out for tears they 
might drown her
Then they'll sail quick 
without the weight of an anchor

But I'll fly myself when I visit Saint Joseph
On my pilgrimage to your heart, I will pray to Joan of Arc
I'm sure she can save me from loneliness

But I'll fly myself when I visit Saint Joseph
On my pilgrimage to your heart, I will pray to Joan of Arc
I'm sure she can save me from loneliness
Canopies and circuses

Ooooooooh, ooooooooh

Will you whisper to wait for you for nine months?
I will just for you
I've nothing to hold but icicles
I squeeze the cold just for you

I hope the peace don't turn to pain
I've lost my umbrella again

When I speak of you I stammer
I stumble for words just for you
Will you wish for beds of flowers?
I'll grow azaleas just for you

I hope the clouds don't turn to rain
'Cause I've lost my umbrella again

For you I'll be secure enough
I'll adjust for you just for you
If the skies apart I'll grow two wings
I'll climb the clouds just for you

I hope the clouds I climb won't rain
'Cause I've lost my umbrella again

Coming soon.....

She's never still
Where will I find strength to soothe her?
She's never still
I lost my will
Sold all I had for a dive into her deep dark abyss
All for a kiss
Never still, never still
She always moves away
Never still, never still
Just can't make her stay
She always goes away

Make mine the only skin you want to feel inside by side
Only mine
I hear your reverie, your voice is shifting me 
Sight to side all the time
We can walk fine lines, tremble and spin
And I'll be your only skin

We should run away, leave it all behind
We can't stay and pretend that it's all gonna be fine
Throw it all away, leave it all behind
Run away, run away

Make mine the only skin you want to feel inside by side
Only mine
All that I wanna do, is find us an avenue sight by side all the time
We can climb the trees that shake with the wind
And I'll be your only skin

We should run away, leave it all behind
We can't stay here and pretend that it's all gonna be fine
Throw it all away, leave it all behind
Run away, run away

'Cause nothing's here, nothing's here
So come with me, so come with me
With your trust and your fear
You'll always be in this world with me
Nothing's here, nothing's here
So come with me, so come with me
With your trust and your fear
You'll always be in this world with me

I lose track of your story 'cause you mumble
I fall short of your glory 'cause I stumble
After tonight, let's just leave town
We should run away

Coming soon.....

Coming soon.....

South of London, England
I hear spirits singing
They invite me every night to
Walk the miles to lie beside you
Mmmmmmmm

In my ancient memory
In the thirteenth century
There's a castle with gods and fences
I'm a poor boy, you're my princes, you're my princess
Mmmmmmmm

Over stones through thick vines
Up your castle now I climb
Through your window while you're sleeping
All the dark clouds try to hide you
But now I lie right beside you, right beside you
Mmmmmmmm

In the hours before dawn
I had nightmares that you were gone
So I wake up and I see you
And I wake you and you hold me
Lullaby me, calm inside me, calm inside me
Mmmmmmmm

South of London, England
I hear spirits singing
