Ghost Town
03:25

Caroline comes and she tells me that soon you will be here but I haven't seen you around
Well that's what I've found and I think your head is in the clouds
Last time I'm waiting here, just holdin' on again
Which way will it end
Which way will it end
Did you forget yourself and play the fool again
I am right here, I am right here, I am right here
Did you forget me here, did you forget me here again
Would you remember if I said this is the end
My heart's a ghost town that's being torn down
These walls are coming down

Sunrise - Sunset

Sunrise - sunset
Every day always starts the same
and every day always ends the same too
I don't know where you're sleeping these days
and it's driving me crazy 'cause I miss you
Sunrise - sunset
It's been six weeks since I've seen your face
I've looked all over town I ain't seen a trace
You wouldn't say why you were going away
But I can't forget that last day
You looked into my soul and you saw something missing
and I saw the look as you thought to yourself
I don't know which way we are going
we're going we're going we're going we're going we're going
where are we going
and it's gone, and it's gone, and it's gone
Sunrise - sunset

Turn Off The Rain
05:23
|

Is there anyone who can please turn off the rain?
I'm wondering if we'll ever see the sun again
Is there anybody who at least can say
how long, how long will we wait?
Trapped inside for another lonely day
Will I ever taste fresh air again?
Freedom's so easy to take away
How long, how long will we pay?
It's been raining for a thousand years or so
and though I promised that I'd never let you go
Can't say how long I'll be 'cause I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I can't recall the colour of the sun
or remember ever having any fun
I cannot wait 'til all this rain is done
how long, how long, how long
how long can this go on?

Next-Door Neighbour
04:02
|

I would see you everyday
when you'd go off to school
I would dream of you every night
you always were so cool
and your boyfriends were all so mean
I always hoped you'd see me
I gazed at you with loving eyes
the way I wished you'd look at me
but I was just a fool, I was just a friend
I was just your next-door neighbour
I was just a fool, right up to the end
I was just your next-door neighbour
and that day that you rang my bell
and asked me for a favour
in your kitchen we drank Kool-Aid
the blue raspberry flavour
I should have told you everything I thought
and everything I felt
You were beautiful, so dear to me
and I kept it to myself
I was just a fool, I was just a friend
I was just your next-door neighbour
I was just a fool, right up to the end
I was just your next-door neighbour

Island
05:28
|

Dreaming of something exotic
Setting off on an adventure tale
Looking to recapture a feeling
a feeling like I can do anything
Chasing a dream I had of an island
Searching for something that eludes me still
Wishing on every star I see
and I'm thinking that I might be close
for once
I've chased this dream before
I've always washed ashore
with ragged clothes and broken heart
Maybe this time will be different
Maybe all my heartbreaks will be chased away
Dreaming so much that I'm drowning
but maybe this time will be different
for once
come with me baby
you know we can be happy on an island
life will be lovely
you know we'll be so happy on an island

Snow Day
03:44

I looked outside this morning
run to the radio, my prayers are answered
- we have a snow day
a whole world of possibilities are open to me now
I can do anything I want
I am free
I think I'll watch some TV
figure out what to do later
Maybe I'll go outside
build a snowman, throw snowballs at little kids
I'll build a fortress and start a war with the neighbours
I'll get the whole street involved
I wanna play with all my friends
I'm gonna soak up every ounce of freedom
I'm gonna stay out 'til the sun goes down
'cause it's a snow day, I tell ya
and I'm gonna live it to the very fullest
and when I get home tonight
I'm gonna warm up by the fire with a hot cocoa
better believe it
Snow day
we have a snow day
Snow day
it's a snow day
I ain't gonna dig my car out for a week
I'm gonna let the snowplows come and find me
Snow day
it's a snow day
Snow day
we have a snow day
The world is bright today
Everything is white today
it's beautiful today
I don't have anything to do today
Nothing today

When She Runs
04:21
|

|
Hold on
the worst is yet to come
Hold on
the best is yet to come
How long
have I been treading this middle ground
the only beauty in my life is when
I watch your sister when she runs
Sunny
Summer afternoon
Dreaming
gazing at clouds all afternoon
Waiting
for my favourite time to come around
I could wait here forever
I'm in love with your sister when she runs
When she runs

I'm sick of it here
traffic in my ears
let's run away
run a thousand years
I like you
so come with me
I wanna get away from here
I wanna get away from me
let's run away to the hills
let's take the day off
let's get away
fly a million miles
come back some other day
let's run away to the hills

Wait For You
03:39
|
|||
|
All I can do is wait for you
these cloudy days don't make it any easier
and while I'm sitting waiting here for you
not hearing anything just makes it longer
Sitting on a rooftop all night long
I can see the city under hidden stars
I could look out for you all night long
I'll still be wondering where you are
