Remember When? (Chapter 9)

‘How are you - have I made you wait?’
I'm the one who said ‘Don't be Late!’
You know there's still time for you to make the change
Now it's time to turn another page
This year my gift is Y2K
And now it looks like it's you that's running late

Do you remember when, I said ‘Don't be Late!’
How would you know then just how long I'd wait?

‘So, how are you - have you guessed my name?’
It's time to put your toys away
Remember I know you love to play this game

Do you remember when, I said ‘Don't be Late?’
How would you know then just how long I'd wait

‘How are you - do you have the time’
I'll tell you what I've got in mind
You know it's never too late to change your mind

Do you remember when I said ‘Don't be Late?’
How would you know then just how long I'd wait?

Do you remember when I said ‘Don't be Late?’
How would you know then how long it would take?

The One

Can someone tell me who I've got to pay
to help me find a remedy?
Now I'm not sure I can wait another day
'cause I'm my own worst enemy
There was a time I thought I knew the way
but that's all ancient history
'Cause every time I feel that I am there
I'm never where I want to be

Tell me, ‘Why do I still dream about you?’
I wonder where you'll be, when I'm gone

Now I know you are the one
I guess you've always been the one

I don't know why I run away
every time I hear your name
So maybe I should find another way
It's time to come in from the rain

‘Why do I still dream about you?’
I wonder where you'll be when I'm gone?

Now I know you are the one
I guess you've always been the one

So, now I know you are the one

Someone tell me who I've got to pay
to help me find a remedy
Now I'm not sure I can wait another day
now I'm my own worst enemy

Why do I still dream about you?
I wonder where you'll be, when I am gone?

Now I know you are the one
I guess you've always been the one.

Follow Me

Where were you
When I lost all my confidence?

I need you
I need you
To remind me of what life looks like,
in the eyes of a child of ten
Where were you?
Where were you when life made no sense?
I need you
I need you
Help me return to that place again

Follow me down the road
Take my hand and don't let go
Close your eyes, count to ten
Round and round and back again

Where were you?
Where were you when I wasn't strong?
I need you
I need you
To make me believe in the magic of innocence
Where were you
When I felt like I don't belong
I need you
I need you
Tell me that I can still dream without consequence

Follow me down the road
Take my hand and don't let go
Close your eyes, count to ten
Round and round and back again

Where were you?
Where were you when I lost control?
I need you
I need you
Remind me that sometimes I'm lonely but never alone
Where were you?
Where were you when I sold my soul?
I need you
I need you
To hold me so tight, and never let go

Follow me down the road
Take my hand and don't let go
Close your eyes, count to ten
Round and round and back again

How was I to know
You'd be letting go?

Follow me down the road
Take my hand and don't let go
Close your eyes, count to ten
Round and round and back again

Uncle Albert’s Eyes (Chapter 13)

See the man sitting in the corner feeling humble
Can't you see the tears in Uncle Albert's eyes
Says the words again and again
Says he's coming but he doesn't know when
So get ready for a big surprise

Says the word and everybody starts to crumble
Don't you know he's got the gift of second sight

We all have heard the calling
You know I know you now

It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
In Uncle Albert's eyes

All alone thinking about the resurrection
Don't you think it's time that everybody knew
We read the news but we all forgot
Now the Garden of Eden was a parking lot
I think it's time for a new direction

We all have heard the calling
You know I know you now

It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
In Uncle Albert's eyes

See the man sitting in the corner feeling humble
He may fool you now but he could never lie

It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
It's all in Uncle Albert's eyes
In Uncle Albert's eyes

Home

You speak, when you are spoken to
And buy what you've been sold
You want, but you can't help yourself
Maybe it's time to go home

You smile, with a convincing grin
And laugh, until you frown
You play the game, you know you can't win

If you want some shelter from the storm
Somewhere you feel safe and warm

You can always go home
I think it's time to go home

You cry, but you can't show your tears
You lie, until you feel weak
You're scared, but you can't hide your fears

If you want some shelter from the rain
Somewhere you can ease the pain

You can always go home
I think it's time to go home

No questions asked
No judgements passed
And now, where have you been?
Just nice to see you
And welcome back
Oh yes, you're finally home

Laugh when you want to laugh
Cry when you want to cry
Smile when you want to smile
Lie if you need to lie

You smile with a convincing grin
And laugh until you frown
You play the game you know you can't win

When you need shelter from the storm
Somewhere you feel safe and warm, oh yea

You can always go home
It's time to go home

No questions asked
No judgements passed
Now where have you been
It's nice to see you
Welcome back!
Oh yes, you're finally home

If you want shelter from the storm
Somewhere we feel safe and warm
Then you know, I know, you know
We can always go home

Don’t Say Goodbye

When twilight comes too soon
And darkness fills the room
It's time to, walk into the sun
When all is said and done
And passions on the run
It's time to, walk into the sun
And feel the heat
Feel the passion grow 'till you can't breathe
Walk into the sun
Just feel the heat
Feel the dragons breath under your feet
Walk into the sun

Don't say goodbye
'Cause you're already gone
Don't say goodbye
'Cause you're already gone

Feel the heat
Feel the passion grow 'till you can't speak
Walk into the sun
Just feel the heat
Feel the dragons breath under your feet
Walk into the sun

Don't say goodbye
'Cause you're already gone
Don't say goodbye
'Cause you're already gone

Time Bomb

Where were you today?
I'm not sure if I should tell you
What have you got to say?
I'm sorry
You said you want to stay
I know, I know, I know, I've tried
So why did you run away?

Can't ya see I'm tick'n like a time bomb
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Won't somebody come and light my fuse

What will it be tonight?
I won't know until I get there
What do you hope to find?
Some answers
But tears may fill your eyes
I know, I know, but I'll be fine
So why do you need to fly?
I just know I've got to try

You've always had more than you need
So why are you a stranger to me?

Can't ya see I'm tick'n like a time bomb
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Gettin' ready to explode
Don't you know I'm tick'n like a time bomb
I'm just tick'n like a time bomb
Won't somebody come and light my fuse

Where were you today?
I'm not sure if I should tell you
What have you got to say
I'm not sorry
You said you want to play
I know, I know, I know, I lied
So why'd you run away?

Show me
Show me I'll show you mine
I'm not blind
All revealed in good time
Tell me
Who made silence a crime?
Don't be shy
It's not all in my mind

Can't ya see I'm tick'n like a time bomb
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Somebody light my fuse
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
I've got nothin' to lose
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Won't somebody come and light my fuse
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Don't ya know I'm tick'n like a time bomb
I'm tick'n like a time bomb

Not This Way (Chapter 10)

It wasn't that long ago
that I would lift you up and hold you
It seems like a thousand years
that I have watched you on your own
I was never that far away,
I know that you felt that it was over
No reason to be afraid,
I always had my eye on you

You know I wanted to help you start over
but not this way
You know I wanted to help you believe me
but not this way

You want to be on your own,
but you still need me here to listen
And in the last fifty years
you haven't had a lot to say
I know that the air you breathe
is weighted down with information
How do you sleep at night
you're just hearing what you want to hear

You know I wanted to help you start over
but not this way
You know I wanted to help you believe me
but not this way
You know I wanted to help you
But not this way

A Night To Remember

Sacrifice myself for my position
Dedicate my time to indecision
Spend my days in idle conversation
Spend my nights in random concentration

Do you know what you're waiting for?
And how long will it take?

Every day the same old situation
Every night the same infatuation
Life is good but life canbe frustrating
I'm still here, and God knows I'm still waiting

Do you know what you're waiting for?
And how long will it take?

I want a night to remember
This is one you won't forget
I need a night to remember
This is one you won't regret

I state my case before the judge and jury
Everybody says, ‘what's your hurry?’
Life's too short to spend anticipating
I'm still here and God knows I'm still waiting

Do you know what you're waiting for?
And how long will it take?

I want a night to remember
This is one, you won't forget
I need a night to remember
This is one, you won't regret

You're a man of many colours
Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, get, get, get away
You're a man of changing colours
Here I go, here I go, here I go, here I go, go, go again

You're a man of many colours
You're a man of changing colours
Here I go again

I want a night to remember
This is one, you won't forget
I need a night to remember
This is one you won't regret
Gotta get away
I want a night to remember
This is one you won't forget
I need a night to remember
This is one you won't regret

Bye, Bye

Goodbye

It all comes down to one
While staring at the sun
It all comes down to one

One I'll remember
The look in your eyes tonight
And I will always remember
The day that we finally said, goodbye

It all comes down to one

Just one heart
Full of pain and full of lies
But now, now I know
Love never dies

And I will always remember
The tears in our eyes tonight
And I will always remember
The day that we looked at each other and said,
Goodbye
