KINDLY UNSPOKEN

As high as the moon
So high were my spirits
When you sang out my name

And coming from you
It was enough just to hear it
Oh, it rang like the bells did today

But even the sturdiest ground
Can shift and can tremble and let us fall down…

Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It’s lucky I’m clever
Cause if I didn’t know better
I’d believe only that which I’d heard

In the days of my folly
I followed your rules
Did what Simon Says to do

But I won’t let melancholy
Play me for a fool
Oh, no I’m on my way somewhere new

And as far as your lack of something to say
Well, to tell me goodbye there was no better way

Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It’s lucky I’m clever
Cause if I didn’t know better
I’d believe only that which I’d heard

Bridge:

So don’t keep me up till the dawn
With words that’ll keep leading me on
I know much better than to wait for an answer from you

Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It’s lucky I’m clever
‘Cause if I didn’t know better
I’d believe only that which I’d heard

NO GOOD

I never feared the unexpected
‘Till I found myself in this peculiar place
Unaware of where I was headed oh
Turns out it was your footsteps I had chased

Well I should know so much better than this
But you’ve occupied the center of my universe so

I’m moving in reverse
Under your mighty curse
I hate myself for loving you
I turn my head away
But my heart will remain
‘Till the day I learn you’re No Good for me

It’s illogical and it’s outrageous
The way I let you keep me hangin’ on
Your character is that contagious
oh I know I should have thought before I had done
I’ve gone and let my impulse be my guide
And on that note I’ll be defenseless for some time

I’m moving in reverse
Under your mighty curse
I hate myself for loving you
I turn my head away
But my heart will remain
‘Till the day I learn you’re No Good for me

Hey you there keep your distance
Don’t you come around here
Don’t test my patience baby
‘Cause I aint gonna let you off easy

I’m moving in reverse
Under your mighty curse
I hate myself for loving you
I turn my head away
But my heart will remain
‘Till the day I learn you’re No Good for me

I’m moving in reverse
Under your mighty curse
I hate myself for loving you
I turn my head away
But my heart will remain
‘Till the day I learn you’re No Good
‘Till the day I learn you’re No Good
‘Till the day I learn you’re No Good for me

You’re No Good, you’re No good, you’re No Good, you’re No Good for me
You’re No Good, you’re No good, you’re No Good for me

Ooh you’re No Good
Ooh you’re No Good
No Good for me

I WON’T DISAGREE

Ignorance is bliss
You’d always hear me say
But at times you can’t deny
Those eyes lookin’ your way

Let me begin by saying what I mean
It’s a crime against the heart you know
To be somewhere in between

Well don’t be shy
I’ve got an open heart and hand
And I just might have to confess just where I stand

‘Cause lately you make me weaker in the knees
And race through my veins baby every time you’re close to me
Take me away to places I ain’t seen
They say you’ve got a hold on me…
And I won’t disagree

Rock a bye my baby
Don’t be blue tonight
Oh I’m on my way
And I’m gonna make it right

‘Cause I’ve got the feeling
You’ll be needing love
And of all the lonely hearts
You’re the one I’m thinkin’ of

I’ve been told it’s gonna take an iron hand
To break the mold and stand above all of the rest

Well lately you make me weaker in the knees
And race through my veins baby every time you’re close to me
Take me away to places I ain’t seen
They say you’ve got a hold on me…
And I won’t disagree

I’ll be thinking of that evening
When there’s nothing for me to do
And I’ll be wondering if by some slim chance
You’re wondering too

Lately you make me weaker in the knees
And race through my veins baby every time you’re close to me
Take me away to places I ain’t seen
They say you’ve got a hold on me…

Oh lately you make me weaker in the knees
And race through my veins baby every time you’re close to me
Take me away to places I ain’t seen
They say you’ve got a hold on me…
And I won’t disagree

IT’S ONLY LIFE

Tears are forming in your eyes
A storm is warning in the skies
The end of the world it seems
You bend down and you fall on your knees
Well get back on your feet, yeah

Don’t look away, don’t run away
Baby it’s only life
Don’t lose your faith, don’t run away
It’s only life

You were always playing hard
Never could let down your guard
You can’t win, if you never give in
To that voice within, saying pick up your chin
Baby let go of it, yeah

Don’t look away, don’t run away
Baby, it’s only life
Don’t lose your faith, don’t run away
Baby it’s only life. (repeat)

Take your hesitance, and your self defense
Leave them behind, it’s only life
Don’t be so afraid of facing every day
Just take your time, it’s only life
I’ll be your stepping stone, don’t be so alone
Just hold on tight, it’s only life

Oh… don’t look away, don’t run away
Baby it’s only life
Don’t lose your faith, don’t run away, baby, it’s only life (repeat)
It’s only life, it’s only life
Don’t look away…

WISH YOU WERE

Gone away are the golden days
Just a page in my diary
So here I am, a utopian citizen
I’m still convinced there’s no such thing as idealism

Memories they’re following me like a shadow now
And I’m dreaming
‘Cause I’ve already suffered the fever of disbelief

I’ve seen your act
And I know all the facts
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
It ain’t hard to see
Who you are underneath
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
I wish you were here

I was true as the sky is blue
But I couldn’t soon say the same for you, no no
So now I find denial in my eyes
I’m mesmerized by the picture that’s in my mind

Tell me when I’ll finally see your shallow heart
For what it is
‘Cause I don’t want to keep on believing in illusions

I’ve seen your act
And I know all the facts
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
It ain’t hard to see
Who you are underneath
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
I wish you were here

Sometimes I can’t explain
And I’m so sorry that I can’t
I’ll try to concentrate
On your true identity

I’ve seen your act
And I know all the facts
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
It ain’t hard to see
Who you are underneath
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
I wish you were here

I’ve seen your act
And I know all the facts
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
It ain’t hard to see
Who you are underneath
I’m still in love with who I wish you were
I wish you were here

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here

HALLELUJAH

Well, I heard there was a secret chord,
David played and he pleased the lord,
But you don’t really care for music, do you.

Well, it goes like this the fourth the fifth,
The minor fall and the major lift.
The baffled king composin’ hallelujah,

Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof,
You saw her bathing on the roof.
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you,

And she tied you to a kitchen chair,
She broke your throne, she cut your hair.
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah,

Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.

Oh, baby I have been here before,
I’ve seen this room and I walked this floor.
You know, I used to live alone before I knew you,

And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch,
And love is not a victory march.
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah,

Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.

Well, there was a time when you let me know,
what’s really going on below.
But now you never show that to me, do you.

And remember when I moved in you,
The holy dove was moving too,
And every breath we drew was hallelujah,

Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.

Well, maybe there is a God above,
But all that I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.

And it’s not a cry that you hear at night,
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light.
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah,

Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.

YOU CAN’T BREAK A BROKEN HEART

Won’t be so easy
This time to hurt me
You can try
This time, oh baby, there are no tears left here to dry
If you think you can wound me like before
If you think you can do that anymore
Won’t get too far, no
You can’t break a broken heart

(Chorus):
So try your best now, baby
Try your best to break me
You can’t break a broken heart
No damage you can do now
I’m immune to you now
You can’t break what broke apart
There’s nothing you can do to me no more
You can’t break a broken heart

Hurt me before now
Won’t hurt no more now
Not this time
But you might do better, messin’ with someone else’s mind
Coz You’re not gunna to break me down again,
You’re done with doin me the way you did,
It’s gone too far, yeah
You can’t break a broken heart

(Chorus):
So try your best now baby
Try your best to break me
You can’t break a broken heart
No damage you can do now
I’m immune to you now
You can’t break what broke apart
There’s nothing you can do to me no more
You can’t break a broken heart

So don’t waste your time
Your time has come and gone
What are you here for
You can’t hurt me anymore

So try your best now baby
Try your best to break me
You can’t break a broken heart
No damage you can do now
I’m immune to you now
You can’t break what broke apart
There’s nothing you can do to me no more
You can’t break a broken heart (2x)

Break a broken heart

MANHATTAN FROM THE SKY

Baby
Whatcha doing today
what are you doing later
I don’t know my way through a maze of gray skyscrapers
But I’m willing to learn

If you want me to I’ll stay just where I am
But I promise just to follow when I land
And you can take my word for that

You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind.

Dazes
Once upon an old daydream, that’s what you gave me
Out on the corner of Broadway and 48th street, on a rainy afternoon
(Well) I could start discovering your world
And I would make a damn good city girl
Things would start to bloom, I’m sure

You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind.

I know you want me to see don’t lie to me
Why you gotta go be so shy to me?
I ain’t buying the false anxiety let your fortress fall
What’s it gonna take to get you there?
If fear was money you’d be a millionaire
Or all alone in a leather swivel chair counting stacks of gold
Oh oh
You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around ohhh

You are my Manhattan from the sky
You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high,
But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind.
Oh ohh ohh oh

99 TIMES

So, you see
You’ve got me back again for more
And it seems
Your song is in my head
This is war
Mystery, how I could feel you breathe me
I was sure, you would keep
Every promise;
you would keep, every word

Well, I try to put your stories in line
But nothing adds up right

For every 99 times
You looked me in the eye,
You looked me in the eye
And swore you weren’t lying
Well, I was so blind
I never saw the signs
I’m getting out tonight
And you’re not invited

Its a shame
That you left me hanging like you did
It was brave
But it was much more foolish
Don’t you think?
Cause you know I wont be satisfied
Until you realize

For every 99 times
You looked me in the eye,
You looked me in the eye
And swore you weren’t lying
Well, I was so blind
I never saw the signs
I’m getting out tonight
And you’re not invited

These things are all so typical
These things are unforgivable
I’m gone and you’re invisible now
Don’t let me catch you followin’
Don’t ask, cause I’m not offering
You’ve caused enough of my suffering, oh

For every 99 times
You looked me in the eye,
You looked me in the eye
And swore you weren’t lying
Well, I was so blind
I never saw the signs
I’m getting out tonight

For every 99 times
You looked me in the eye,
You looked me in the eye
And swore you weren’t lying
Well, I was so blind
I never saw the signs
I’m getting out tonight
And you’re not invited

LIFT ME UP

This road is anything but simple
Twisted like a riddle
I’ve seen high, and I’ve seen low

So loud, the voices over my doubts
Are telling me to give up
To pack up, and leave town

But even so I had to believe, oh
Impossible means nothing to me

So can you lift me up
And turn the ashes into flames
Cause I have overcome
More than words will ever say

And I’ve been given hope
That there’s a light on up the hall
And that a day will come when the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun, ooh

Somewhere, everybody starts there
You’re counting on a small prayer
Lost in a nightmare

But I’m here, and suddenly it’s so clear
The struggle through the long years
It’s hard for me to outrun my fears

But everything that’s worth having
Comes with trials worth withstanding

So can you lift me up
And turn the ashes into flames
Cause I have overcome
More than words will ever say

And I’ve been given hope
That there’s a light on up the hall
And that a day will come when the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun
ooh yeah
well

Oh, lift me up
Oh, lift me up
Oh, lift me up
Oh, lift me up
oh, lift me up
woah
lift me up
lift me up
lift me up, oh
lift me up

Down and out is overrated
And I need to be elevated
Looking up is not enough, no
I would rather rise above, oh, oh, oh

So can you lift me up
And Turn the ashes into flames
Cause I have overcome
More than words will ever say

And I’ve been given hope
That there’s a light on up the hall
And that a day will come when the fight is won
And I think that day has just begun
Oh, just begun

Lift me up, ooh yeah ooh
Lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up

SWEET SILVER LINING

Well, I’m going home
Downhearted and hoping
I’m close to some new beginning
I know there’s a reason for everything
That comes and goes

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I’m just surviving
And I may be weak but I’m never defeated
And I’ll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining

Most days I try
My best to put on a brave face
But inside my bones are cold and my heart breaks
But all the while something’s keeping me safe and alive

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I’m just surviving
And I may be weak but I’m never defeated
And I’ll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining
And I won’t give up like this
I will be given strength
Now that I’ve found it
Nothing can take that away

Chorus x2

PLAYING WITH MY HEART

A little tough love
Never hurt nobody
Never saw this coming
This side of me
I know where you’re goin’
With your sugar-laced talkin’
And it wasn’t too hard to see

You think you got me
Right where you want me
You think you got the whole story
I think that a proper fair warning
Might serve you well
So I’m here to tell you

It’s not too late
To do yourself a favor
And walk away
Though I know that’s never been your nature
By the way, you’ve put yourself in danger cause you’re
Playing with my heart
Playing with my heart
You’re playing with my heart

Every good girl’s got a real good reason
To believe in breaking
All the rules sometimes
And I’m that girl baby, you’re that reason
And your scheming
Has caused me to cross the line

You lie but I’m a pretty good liar
You chose a game I can play better
You’re bright, oh, but baby, I’m clever
So you might as well
Let me tell you

Chorus

For Heaven’s sake, what are you thinking baby?
You won’t catch what you’ve been chasing
Trust me when I say I can keep you running
But I’m not coming oh, I won’t come around

Chorus

HEART IN CHAINS

It’s been a week since I’ve heard your voice now
You know it seems like a hundred years
It’s hard to sleep, it’s a bit alarming
I’m a mess when you’re not here

And it’s a simple curse
I’m not the first
Oh but it’s a vicious hurt
And it just gets worse

CHORUS
Oh because you know me well
Like a child knows a mother’s face
Oh and I don’t have to tell you
You got my heart, got my heart in chains

Tears on my pillowcase, yeah-h-h
But I don’t want it any other way
No, no

Your attention is my addiction
Roller coaster of highs and lows
I need your venom it’s been in my system
Since the second we said, „Hello“

You know you love me deep
But I’m incomplete
Baby every time you leave
I get so weak

CHORUS
Oh because you know me well
Like a child knows a mother’s face
Oh and I don’t have to tell you
You got my heart, got my heart in chains

Tears on my pillowcase, yeah-h-h
But I don’t want it any other way
No, no

Don’t leave me helpless, don’t leave me lost
Don’t leave me waiting, you’re all I’ve got
Don’t leave me helpless, don’t leave me lost
Don’t leave me waiting, you’re all I’ve got

CHORUS
Oh because you know me well
Like a child knows a mother’s face
Oh and I don’t have to tell you
You got my heart, got my heart in chains

Tears on my pillowcase, yeah-h-h
But I don’t want it any other way
No, no

(You know me well
I wouldn’t want it any other way
You know me well
I wouldn’t want it any other way
No, no, no)
