Honey

Honey, if I had your smile, I could light up the whole room
And if I had your eyes, all the little stars in the sky would be jealous
And the fireflies would dance around my head, and never compare
So be gentle with your words, sing me lullabies, your voice strong and sure
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine – and listen to my heart beat
like ripples growing at the touch of raindrops falling from the sky
So, don’t hold back, and I'll be fine
You don’t have to be a superman to be mine
Arms wide open, eyes wide shut
You make me feel like there is more to "I’m in love"
So, take your time – I’m always here
You're my everlasting honey, my dear
Arms wide open, there's no bluff
You make me feel like there is more to "I’m in love"

Picture Frame
04:24

Patterns in the sky, leaves fall and they fly
And the wind leads the way
Small brown feathered bird, he could rule the world
For all he’s seen today
And I’d be surprised if his spirit ever died
You can’t light a candle expecting there not to be flame
A picture at a time, a frame is worth a dime
Even with edges frayed
He’ll fly them to your home, and when the bird’s alone
He’ll gather your mind away
And you’ll spend an age – your heart in his golden cage
Time’s ticking on you have no one but yourself to
Blame, and you’re falling for his game
You’re the same – just another picture frame
That’s sitting on his shelf
Little bird kept you to himself
You can’t see the grin from under the smile
Everything is skewed, you don’t know what to do
Or what words you should say
But mind that little bird – he’ll make himself heard
Your worries he’ll wash away
You’ll be confused - and soon he’ll become your muse
That sweet little bird you can’t see that he has to be
Tamed, and you’re falling for his game
You’re the same – just another picture frame
That’s sitting on his shelf
Little bird kept you to himself
You can’t see the grin from under the smile
From under the smile
Cause hey, you’re falling for his game
You’re the same – just another picture frame
That’s sitting on his shelf
Little bird kept you to himself
You can’t see the grin from under the smile
You can’t see the grin from under the smile

Wires and Pins
04:52
|

I dreamed I had hair, she said – it was flowing like the sea
Then I woke up to find that I’m still here
So I was standing there, taking in the breeze
Thinking it don’t bother me no more, I think… I know
But wires and pins, wires and pins
And wires and pins, wires and pins
Wires and pins, wires and, she asks herself if she can ask herself tomorrow
Just close your eyes and you’ll be fine – you’ll sleep for a little while
We’re here for you, don’t hesitate to ask – be quiet now my child
Oh speak up, I can’t hear you – stop that noise, I can’t steer you
We’re here to help you, here to help you
Help me
The people are nice, she said – they remember my name
They beds are comfy here, but not the same
And when I feel sick inside, they’ve everything I need
I’ll get out of this, it’s nice to believe
But wires and pins, wires and pins
And wires and pins, wires and pins
Wires and pins, wires and, she asks herself if she can ask herself tomorrow
Just take this now, you’ll be alright – this lady will be with you tonight
We’re here for you… we have to go – you’ll make it out of this, I know
Just keep wishing – can’t afford… I can’t take this anymore
They’re here to help you, here to help you
Help me
But wires and pins, wires and pins
And wires and pins, wires and pins
Wires and pins, wires and, she asks herself if she can ask herself tomorrow

Unwritten Plans
04:17
|

All I wanted was to feel fine
Get my thoughts into a straight line
But broken silence is too much for me
And in this haze I find I cannot see
Into the deep end I must go
Does this road end? I don’t know
Close my eyes, plug my ears again
It’s some surprise how the years have been
I don’t know why we don’t let it end
When you and I know that it’s just pretend
When you and I know that it’s just pretend
Always ready for a long descant
It’s like I’m rearing for unwritten plans
But time just hides himself away from me
Envelopes me in unending dreams
A single light on in the dark
Find a way to make a spark
Boil us down and we are just the same
Nothing to lose and everything to gain
On solid ground we can remain
For we can choose the ending of this game
For we are nothing but a long refrain
We are nothing but a long refrain
