1- Here With Me
(écrit par D. Armstrong, P. Statham & P. Gabriel)

I didn't here you leave

I wonder how am I still here

I don't want to move a thing

It might change my memory

Oh I am what I am

I'll do what I want

But I can't hide

I won't go

I won't sleep

I can't breathe

Until you're resting here with me

I won't leave

I can't hide

I cannot be

Until your resting here with me

I don't want to call my friends

They might wake me from this dream

And I can't leave this bed

Risk forgetting all that's been

Oh I am what I am

I'll do what I want

But I can't hide

I won't go

I won't sleep

I can't breathe

Until you're resting here with me

I won't leave

I can't hide

I cannot be

Until your resting here with me

2-Hunter

(écrit par D. Armstrong et R. Armstrong)

With one light on in one room

I know you're up when I get home

With one small step upon the stair

I know your look when I get there

If you were a king up there on your throne

Would you be wise enough to let me go

For this queen you think you own

Wants to be a hunter again

Wants to see the world alone again

To take a chance on life again

So let me go

The unread book and painful look

The Tv's on, the sound is down

One long pause, then you begin

Oh look what the cat's brought in

If you were a king up there on your throne

Would you be wise enough to let me go

For this queen you think you own

Wants to be a hunter again

Wants to see the world alone again

To take a chance on life again

So let me go, let me leave

For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now

And I don't know what to say to you but I'll smile anyhow

And all the time I'm thinking, thinking

I want to be a hunter again

Want to see the world alone again

To take a chance on life again

So let me go

3-Don't Think of Me
(écrit par D. Armstrong, R. Armstrong, P. Taylor & P. Herman)

So you're with her, and not with me

I hope she's sweet, and so pretty

I hear she cooks delightfully

A little angel beside you

So you're with her, and not with me

Oh how lucky one man can be

I hear your house is smart and clean

Oh how lovely with your Homecoming Queen

Oh how lovely it must be

When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me

When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me

So you're with her, and not with me

I know she spreads sweet honey

In fact your best friend, I heard he spent last night with her

Now how do you feel, how do you feel ?

When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me

When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me

And it's too late, and it's too bad, don't think of me

Oh it's too late, and it's too bad, don't think of me

Does it bother you now all the mess I made ?

Does it bother you now the cloths you told me not to wear ?

Does it bother you now all the angry games we played ?

Does it bother you now when I'm not there ?

When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me

When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me

And it's too late, and it's too bad, don't think of me

Oh it's too late, and it's too bad, don't think of me

4-My Lover's Gone
(écrit par D. Armstrong et J. Catto)

My lover's gone

His boots no longer by my door

He left at dawn

And as I slept I felt him go

Returns no more

I will not watch the ocean

My lover's gone

No earthly ships will ever bring him home again

Bring him home again

My lover's gone

I know that kiss will be my last

No more his song

The tune upon his lips has passed

I sing alone

While I watch the ocean

My lover's gone

No earthly ships will ever bring him home again

Bring him home again

My lover's gone

His boots no longer by my door

He left at dawn

And as I slept I felt him go

Returns no more

I will not watch the ocean

My lover's gone

No earthly ships will ever bring him home again

Bring him home again

5-All You Want
(écrit par D. Armstrong, P. Herman et R. Armstrong)

I'd like to watch you sleep at night

To hear you breathe by my side

And though sleep leaves me behind

There's nowhere I'd rather be

And now our bed is oh so cold

My hands feel empty

No one to hold

I can sleep what side I want

It's not the same with you gone

Oh if you'd come home

'll let you know that

All you want

Is right here in this room

All you need

Is sitting here with you

All you want

It's been three years

One night apart

But in that night you tore my heart

If only you had slept alone

If those seeds had not been sewn

Oh you could come home and you would know that

All you want

Is right here in this room

All you need

Is sitting here with you

All you want

I hear your key turning in the door

I won't be hearing that sound anymore

And you and your sin

Can leave the way you just came in

Send my regards to her

I hope you've found that

All you want

Is right there in that room

All you need

Is sitting there with you

All you want

I'd like to watch you sleep at night

To hear you breathe by my side

6-Thank you
(écrit par D. Armstrong et P.Herman)

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all

The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all

And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my wall

It reminds me that it's not so bad

It's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay

My head just feels in pain

I missed the bus and there'll be hell today

I'm late for work again

And even if I'm there, they'll all imply that I might not last the day

And then you call me and it's not so bad

It's not so bad and

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life

Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last and I'm soaking through and through

Then you handed me a towel and all I see is you

And even if my house falls down now, I wouldn't have a clue

Because you're near me and

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life

Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

And I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life

Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

7-Honestly Ok
(écrit par D. Armstrong, M. Benbrook et R. Armstrong)

I just want to feel safe in my own skin

I just want to be happy again

I just want to feel deep in my own world

But I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore

On a different day if I was safe in my own skin

Then I wouldn't feel so lost and so frightened

But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin

And I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore

I just want to feel safe in my own skin

I just want to be happy again

8-Slide
(écrit par D. armstrong et P. Herman)

Even on a day like this when you're crawling on the floor

Reaching for the phone to ring anyone who knows you anymore

It's all right to make mistakes

You're only human

Inside everybody's hiding something

Staring at the same four walls, have you tried to help yourself

The rings around your eyes they don't hide, that you need to get some rest

It's all right to make mistakes

You're only human

Inside everybody's hiding something

Take time to catch your breathe and choose your moment

Don't slide (3x)

Even at a time like this when the morning seems so far

Think that pain belongs to you but it's happened to us all

It's all right to make mistakes

You're only human

Inside everybody's hiding something

Take time to catch your breathe and choose your moment

Don't slide (3x)

You brought this on yourself

And it's high time you left it there

Lie here and rest your head

And dream of something else instead

Don't slide (3x)

9-Isobel
(écrit par D. Armstrong et R. Armstrong)

I thought it was funny when you missed the train

When I rang you at home they said you left yesterday

I thought it was strange when your car was found

By the tree in Ennis where we used to hang around

Dear Isobel

I hope you're well and what you've done is right

Oh it's been such hell

I wish you well and hope your safe tonight

It's been a long day coming and long will it last

When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass

By loving you more

And who he would become, all the things he'd have done

Would he have loved you, and not let you down

And would he be stronger than his father

Don't punish yourself, leave it well alone

Dear Isobel

I hope you're well and what you've done is right

Oh it's been such hell

I wish you well and hope your safe tonight

It's been a long day coming and long will it last

When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass

By loving you more

10-I'm No Angel
(écrit par D. Armstrong, P. Statham et P. Gabriel)

If you gave me just a coin for every time we say goodbye

Well I'd be rich beyond my dreams, I'm sorry for my weary life

I know I'm not perfect but I can smile

And I hope that you see this heart behind my tired eyes

If you tell me that I can't, I will, I will, I'll try all night

And if I say I'm coming home, I'll probably be out all night

I know I can be afraid but I'm alive

And I hope that you can trust this heart behing my tired eyes

I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try

I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life

I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry

I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly

I know I'm not around each night

and I know I always think I'm right

I can believe that you might look around

I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try

I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life

I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry

I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly

11-My Life
(écrit par D. Armstrong, R. Armstrong et M. Bates)

What I choose to do is of no concern to you and your friends

Where I lay my hat may not be my home, but I will last on my own

'Cause it's me, and my life

It's my life

Oh the world has sat in the palm of your hand not that you'd see

And I'm tired and bored of waiting for you and all those things

You never do

'Cause it's me, and my life

It's my life, it's my life

12-Take My Hand

Touch my skin,and tell me what you're thinking

Take my hand and show me where we're going

Lie down next to me, look into my eyes and tell me, oh tell me what you're seeing

So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling

What you feel now is what I feel for you

Take my hand and if I'm lying to you

I'll always be alone

If I'm lying to you

See my eyes, they carry your reflection

Watch my lips and hear the words I'm telling you

Give your trust to me and look into my heart and show me, show

Me what you're doing

So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling

What you feel now is what I feel for you

Take my hand and if I'm lying to you

I'll always be alone

If I'm lying to you

Take your time, if I'm lying to you

I know you'll find that you believe me

You believe me

Feel the sun on your face and tell me what you're thinking

Catch the snow on your tongue and show me how it tastes

Take my hand and if I'm lying to you

I'll always be alone / if I'm lying to you

Take your time, if I'm lying to you

I know you'll find that you believe me

You believe me
