Lightening strikes twice
A thunderous drum
Your shadow, your guide hides
Seconds slow down
All thoughts speed up
And there's no sound
Except for your pulse
There's a crack
On your path
There's no way back
There's no way back
There's a crack
On your path
There's no way back
Your heart's under attack
A pendulum swings
Your family clock stops
The dreams the night brings
The morning time locks
Your ears hear a tune
That nobody sings
Your eyes are immune
To the beautiful things
There's a crack
On your path
There's no way back
There's no way back
There's a crack
On your path
There's no way back
Your heart's under attack
An old book , a thought
Maps a path your feet walk
With the beauty you brought
Chalk out a new ending
There's a crack
On your path
There's no way back
There's no way back
There's a crack
On your path
There's no way back
Your heart's under attack

You've been here before. Did you find out
What it was you're looking for?
The same tears and more
Why save them all for next time
When you could leave them fall on floor
There's only one
There's only one
There's only one outcome
There's only one
There's only one
There's only one outcome
Find Your Own Way
To Keep your own demons
Find Your Own Way
To Keep your own demons
Find Your own way
To keep your demons at bay
Now you're feeling strong. Until you find out
The next thing that comes along
You've got your head on
The one that you collide with
Every wall that does you wrong
There's only one
There's only one
There's only one outcome
There's only one
There's only one
There's only one outcome
Find Your Own Way
To Keep your own demons
Find Your Own Way
To Keep your own demons
Find Your own way
To keep your demons at bay

Who am I? Who are you?
Who do we intend to be?
It's hard, it's hard when
We can't stand on our two feet
There's time
There's plenty time left there for us
To waste or take
A break from fair and unfair
There's gold there somewhere
Dig, dig deep
Dig deep until your hands and fingers bleed
And see. And see if you can find something
Beneath
The floor
Find something and you can
Call it yours
Before you start
To stare out nowhere
There's gold there somewhere
Blue river silver skin
You'll find me. You'll find me
Yellow red, warmth within
You'll find me
You'll find me somewhere
There's gold there somewhere
Breath, breath in
Breath in and see what self inspection brings
And hear
And hear the warnings in their uttering
It's fear
Fear that stops you seeing it all so clear
It likes to keep you unaware
There's Gold There Somewhere

I can exist
With this wish list
Through fog and mist
We stroll and kiss
I gave my word
That I would reach out and touch you
I gave my word
That I would reach out and touch you
You know who you are
In the shadow of my northern star
And I can twist
The bitterness
A trojan gift
That lifts then shifts
I gave my word
That I would reach out and touch you
I gave my word
That I would reach out and touch you
You know who you are
In the shadow of my northern star
Cloud cover
I dont mind
The darker shelter
I see shapes that
Reflect mood inside
I dont miss
Taking the risk
The quick ship
Is a shorter trip
I gave my word
That I would reach out and touch you
I gave my word
That I would reach out and touch you
You know who you are
In the shadow of my northern star
You know who you are
You know who you are
You know who you are
In the shadow of my northern sta

We tried
Sometimes too hard
We pushed
Each other too far
And what rock
Will we wrap this rope round
Lay your guard down
And days pass
And we grasp and we grasp
But don't ask
How long it will last
How do you back track
From where this train's bound
Lay your guard down
But I was wrong
To wait so long
To say I Quit
And you know and you know
And you know that I know
And you know and I know
And you know that I know
That I was wrong
To wait so long
To say I Quit
How do you back track
How do you back track
How do you back track
From where this train's bound
Lay your guard down

I can change my mind
100,000 times
But my heart says
But my heart says
Stop
It's time to discover what
Discover what it is I'm not
There's a place
For listening to your mind
Now's not the time
I can spend my time
Writing a 100,000 rhymes
But my heart says
But my heart says
Stop
It's time to re-discover what
Discover all that I forgot
There's a place
For listening to your mind
Now's not the time
I can tell a lie
100,000 times
But my heart says
But my heart says
Stop
It's time to discover what
What's true and what is not

Remember when we didn't kiss
Remember when we didn't kiss
Our eyes caressed instead of lips on lips
Remember when we didn't kiss
And the crimson coloured wishes
Felt like all the shooting stars
I must have missed
Remember when we didnt kiss
Remember when all the walls fell
And there was no one left to tell
And time stood still
And just as well
Remember when the talk
Grew still
And the room
The cigarette smoke filled
And the crimson coloured wishes
Felt like all the shooting stars
I must have missed
Remember when we didnt kiss
Remember what the silence said
Remember words inside your head
Remember what we chose instead

See you wither
See you whine
See you tangled up inside
See you rested
She you dined
See coming from behind
See your eyes tire
See your eyes tire
And if your heart needs to kiss mist or drift a bit
From the flames and fire
Don’t start counting you wont stop
Counting the raindrops
Counting things you haven’t got
Counting the raindrops
Counting the raindrops
Here comes summer,
There goes spring
Love the colors
Autumn brings
Hear you whisper ,
Hear you sing
Here’s the rhythm
Of your breathing
Hear your heart sigh
Hear your heart sigh
And if you need to go outside and feel the winter wind
Once in a while
Don’t start counting you wont stop
Counting the raindrops
Counting things you haven’t got
Counting the raindrops
Counting the raindrops
Feel you stumble
Feel your scorn
Feel the coat
You’ve worn and torn
Feel you wander.
Feel you warm
Feel the calm after the storm
See the sun rise
See the sun rise
And if you need to hide your eyes until you find a new light arrive
That’s all right
Don’t start counting you wont stop
Counting the raindrops
Counting things you haven’t got
Counting the raindrops
Counting the raindrops

Oh my love don't change your shape to fit in
I know nothing's easy well some things
You don't have to spend time wondering what people are thinking
Oh, don't show it, keep your strength deep within
A perfect mistress for a king
A perfect mistress for a king
Oh my love don't spread yourself too thin
I know it's hard to stop once you begin
There's no right or wrong love just a change in your direction
Oh no, don't go jumping through their smoke rings
A perfect mistress for a king
A perfect mistress for a king
Tell me how, how you think that you've done wrong
Tell me how you never hurt a hair on any crown, on any crown, on any crown
Oh my love don't change your shape to fit in
I know nothing's easy well some things
You don't have to spend time wondering what people are thinking
Oh, don't show it, keep your strength deep within
A perfect mistress for a king
A perfect mistress for a king

If you feel your stuck inside of
Something that you can't get out of
And if you feel you're not a part of
The only place you thought your heart was
Believe
If you feel you'll fall
If you feel you'll fall
Fall right into
Fall right into
Fall right into me
If you feel you're grabbing hold of
Something that you've lost control of
And if you feel you've been made a fool of
While all you've ever given was love
Believe
If you feel you'll fall
If you feel you'll fall
Fall right into
Fall right into
Fall right into me
When the dark surrounds
Drag your weary feet
To my home ground
If you feel your stuck inside of
Something that you can't get out of
And if you feel you're not a part of
The only place you thought your heart was
Believe
If you feel you'll fall
If you feel you'll fall
Fall right into
Fall right into
Fall right into me

A honeyed whiskey drink,
A fine cognac on a cold winter’s eve
