1. Awakenings4:08

   Letra

   When we first met the well was dry A long dark winter passed us by With shooting stars and hopeful hearts our worlds collide And so we rushed to fill each other in Quick to feed our hungry hopes A feast of our affections we were born anew With open eyes we tried to make it work And for a while the magic took But cracks began to show as soon as things got hard Like paper walls our feelings tore We threw our backs against the door Unwilling to bear witness to the other side Oh, the games we play to hide the tangled dread inside The fear that we are going nowhere fast So we point the finger out, the anger gets so loud It drowns out all the sorrow, at least until tomorrow...what then? I took a good hard look at how I loved Years I squandered falling fast For any boy who'd have me was so insecure I'd lie awake alone at night Full of loathing, compromised And wondering how the hell did I end up like this Oh, the tears of rage I cried, when nowhere could I find An answer that made any kind of sense to me I point the finger out, the anger gets so loud It drowns out all the sorrow, at least until tomorrow...what then? Oh I wanna learn, I wanna know Will our history crush us or can we let it go? I'm not the girl I was but what have I become? I'm not so willing anymore to bend Still pleasing and conceding But I'm not gonna lose myself again
2. Illusions of Bliss3:53

   Letra

   Here I go again...back into your arms What ever happened to resolve? For though I thought that I was strong, that I could carry on Awash in the illusion of this bliss Here I go again...back into the flame Like a moth so willing to be burned A little touch a little taste the pheromones embrace And I get weak with every breathe I take 'Cause it's you who released me It's you who gave me fire Oh and now it's impossible to grow Without breaking stride...I get so high Take me out beyond the incline Make it past the former fault line For today I let the moment win Here I go again...saying things I shouldn't say Just so I can hear them back from you Oh I know I shouldn't stay I should be on my way Back to a place I know is real But the lines are getting blurred My conscience won't be heard Awash in the illusion of this bliss And it's you who released me It's you who gave me fire Oh and now it's impossible to grow Without breaking stride...I get so high Take me out beyond the incline Make it past the former fault line For today I let the moment win
3. Loving You Is Easy3:03

   Letra

   Loving you is easy Loving you is wondrous and pure I shout it from the rooftops How long must I wait 'til I see your smile? Might've been the moonlight Caught up in the sparkle in your eyes So wicked and I know I should go slow, but it's not in me to wait 'Cause I'm alive and I'm on fire Shot like a starburst into the sky All the fury of desire It burns so bright, electrifies You light me up you take me higher I've been down a long road I've become a stranger to myself Digging in my heels And hoping time might be kinder if I wait it out But nothing came from wanting And I became so small and insecure Didn't know the cost of all I'd lost 'til I found it fresh and new Again, with you 'Cause I'm on fire Shot like a starburst into the sky All the fury of desire It burns so bright, electrifies You light me up you take me higher Loving you is easy Loving you is wondrous and pure I shout it from the rooftops How long must I wait 'Til I see your smile?
4. Changes3:44

   Letra

   I can't believe that you're walking away from us Could not conceive we'd ever be done But I feel you drifting you don't have to hide from me I just keep hoping you let me in Maybe I can't help but talking may, I am here for you Time passes us by and the way we love changes And we're learning to waltz through the waves like everyone Let it keep us from falling Would you dance with me now? The candle burned out and we stumbled around in the dark And I can feel you slipping away The band keeps on playing the world keeps revolving Around all the static, the noise in between And we need to hear that song again, let the love shine through Time passes us by and the way we love changes And we're learning to waltz through the waves like everyone Let it keep us from falling Would you dance with me, dance with me now? New walls new ladders, none of this matters We can't walk on water, we can only do better If it's not forever, if it's time to go I will always remember I want you to know When you held me in your arms and said, Let the love shine through Time passes us by and the way we love changes And we're learning to waltz through the waves like every one Let it keep us from falling Would you dance with me, dance with me now? Would you dance with me, dance with me now?
5. Forgiveness3:49

   Letra

   Loving, lying enemy, I have seen your face before Never thought again I'd see, didn't want to any more I remember your loving eyes and the moonlit kiss The evening lullabies I would truly miss Through the years we'd had it all The midnight whispers, the midday calls This house of cards it had to fall And you ask for forgiveness, you're asking too much I have sheltered my heart in a place you can't touch I don't believe when you tell me your love is real 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy, if you have to hurt to feel Every time I see you I can't help but look away All along I had believed everything you'd say When I look now I know I've seen your face before I don't want your deceiving smile standing at my door And I don't care what people say I'm ready now to face this day 'Cause I have lost you along the way And you ask for forgiveness, you're asking too much I have sheltered my heart in a place you can't touch I don't believe when you tell me your love is real 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy, if you have to hurt to feel 'Cause you don't know much about Heaven, boy If you have to hurt And you ask for forgiveness, you're asking too much I have sheltered my heart in a place you can't touch I don't believe when you tell me your love is real 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy If you have to hurt to feel
6. Rivers of Love3:54

   Letra

   There's a tunnel that leads to the rivers of love The sides make you bleed 'til you're white as a dove Don't bother to bring all the baggage you cling to The porter will free you before you come through The doorway that cleanses the darkness that mends It's easy to smile in the end… And all comes down to leaving it all behind and moving on To the rivers of love And never be lonely again How long have you waited? How long 'til you drown? The rules and direction the twists and corrections Take tolls on the highs we still strive 'til we die To seek out the one love - the one that we dream of The one may be there with you everyday Alone and untethered and free of all ties Free since the day you first cried And it all comes down to leaving it all behind and moving on To the rivers of love And never be lonely again How long have you waited? How long 'til you drown? How long have you waited? How long 'til you drown?
7. Love Come3:33

   Letra

   Love come light up the shadows Let the beauty of you enter in For I have hungered for a tender touch A long and lonely time I've seen much more than I want to So much anger so much pain A line is drawn and lives are torn apart The wound's too hard to heal Love has taken me in, lifted my load And in this empty place a wonder grows A dream of some kind of peace, I could hold up as true I never knew anything about love before you You call and I come running I can sense the flood before it breaks And I'd do anything to dry your tears To let you know you're safe Love has taken me in, lifted my load And in this empty place a wonder grows A dream of some kind of peace, I can hold up as true I never knew anything about love before you Love come light up the shadows Let me drink the beauty of you in For I have hungered for a tender touch A long and lonely time
8. Out of Tune3:51

   Letra

   Behind our door, there's no war No burning towers, just hours of peace Between us at least No pretense no violence makes no sense It isn't my heart that's grown cold The same mistakes are getting old I'm lost for words I don't know what to do But when I'm lying here with you And the whole world's out of tune You're the one and only voice that makes things right So stay with me tonight Behind our door there's no hunger No one trying to sell me heaven Just loving arms it's just tonight I don't wanna hear 'bout our trying times Don't wanna know about lost children About someone held for ransom It isn't my heart that's grown cold The same mistakes are getting old I'm lost for words I don't know what to do When I'm lying here with you And the whole world's out of tune You're the one and only voice that makes things right So stay with me tonight I hope we can rise above And despair will end And love and time will mend the wounds… When I'm lying here with you And the whole world's out of tune You're the one and only voice that makes things right So stay with me tonight
9. Heartbreak4:07

   Letra

   Before the night comes, before the city sleeps I walk a lonely mile I know you're out there, I know you're waiting For me to make a sign I know you'd like me to go and crumble Reveal myself to you I lost a wing and grew a shell on the wound Oh so soon And heartbreak, no, you can't catch me Hot on my heals but I move too fast I know you think that I would make good company...at last You always come 'round after your good friend love Has gone and run aground My heart in shambles oh well it's just what you need Your purpose found You turn the lights down and draw the curtains You put the kettle on Come over here, sit down tell me your troubles You sing the saddest song And heartbreak, no, you can't catch me Hot on my heals but I move too fast I know you think that I would make good company At last I'm free to wander so get up off of your knees And find some other fool Someone to hold me when you've got no one to tease It won't be me And heartbreak no you can't catch me Hot on my heals but I move too fast I know you think that I would make good company At last
10. Don't Give Up on Us3:38
11. U Want Me 24:07

    Letra

    You walk on by Clueless and so high Following your aimless path away from us You're so far away And what can I say 'Cause I can't be the one you wanted me to be So tell me, how do you feel It's so confusing If you let it all go, it'll fall apart Do you want me to stay and say I still want you? You want me too, don't you? So what are we saying? Our Eden's a failure A made-up story to fit the picture-perfect world The one with "I do" And "I love you" And we are made for each other Is forever over now? And tell me how do you feel It's so confusing If you let it all go, it'll fall apart Do you want me to stay and say I still want you? You want me too, don't you? I hope there's forgiveness In the distance between us Can we make what lies ahead of us a better place to be? So tell me, how do you feel It's so confusing If you let it all go, it'll fall apart Do you want me to stay and say I still want you? You want me too, don't you?
12. Bring on the Wonder3:24

    Letra

    I can't see the stars anymore living here Let's go to the hills where the outlines are clear Bring on the wonder Bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long I fell through the cracks at the end of our street Let's go to the beach, Get the sand through our feet Bring on the wonder Bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long Bring on the wonder We got it all wrong We pushed you down deep in our souls for too long I don't have the time for a drink from the cup Let's rest for a while 'til our souls catch us up Bring on the wonder Bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long Bring on the wonder We got it all wrong We pushed you down deep in our souls, so hang on Bring on the wonder Bring on the song I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long.
