As I look at You Intro Oh In your eyes Repeat Verse 1 She sits and looks At empty space Saying “life has seemed to pass me by” But she doesn’t know why Then you hold her in your loving arms And tell her all will turn out as you planned In a twinkle of an eye Chorus Oh….. She sees the love That’s in your eyes Repeat Verse 2 He’s just lost his whole world His steps have faltered, his life uncoiled But he’s trying to work it out But then you pick him up in your embrace And show him what he can expect to taste From the fruit of his toil Chorus Oh….. He sees the love That’s in your eyes Repeat Chorus Oh….. She sees the love That’s in your eyes Repeat Chorus Oh….. They see the love That’s in your eyes Repeat

Listen To Me 03:20
Listen To Me Verse 1 I need to work through my tears When I wake up And see where life has brought me You say that “weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning” It’s morning now And I still don’t feel it So, where is my joy? Where is my joy? It’s morning now And I still don’t feel it Where is my joy? Where is my joy? It’s morning now And I just don’t feel it Chorus Only you can teach us To see what’s real Only you can teach us To feel what’s real To see what’s inside us To feel what’s inside us To learn, learn, learn, learn From our woes Middle 8 Where is my joy? Where is my joy? I need to know Oooooh Verse 2 I’m still in tears My life is still where you brought me I’m still in pieces My life has come to haunt me And it’s morning now And I still don’t feel it And it’s morning now And I just don’t feel it Chorus Only you can teach us To see what’s real Only you can teach us To feel what’s real To see what’s inside us To feel what’s inside us To learn, learn, learn From our woes Repeat

Who Knows? 03:16
Who knows? Verse 1 Nobody knows Where I have been Nobody knows What I have seen But they want to judge me Judge me! For who I am But not for what I do Oh no no Verse 2 They judge me But they do not know What they see In my head But I know what’s inside me In my head And also what's inside my heart No.... Reprise Nobody knows Where I have been And nobody knows What I have seen But they want to judge me Judge me! For who I am But not for what I do Oh no no Ahhhhhh They judge me But they don not know what they see But only I know What's inside my heart They only judge from what they see

You Never call Verse 1 You’re full of empty promises Because you said you wouldn’t go down that road again But it doesn’t seem That you care enough to keep your precious word With those angelic eyes You forced me to believe in your flood of tears Behind your eyes There is a world of lies Chorus Why d’you never love me Why d’you never want me Why d’you never call me Unless you want someone Repeat Verse 2 So, here we are again Sitting at the very same cross road But this time it has changed Because I have to carry my own load I have no time to waste I have to leave you well alone So without me you can see All the things you can do on your own Chorus Why d’you never love me Why d’you never want me Why d’you never call me Unless you want someone Instrumental Behind those eyes There is a world of lies Ooooh Behind those eyes There is a world of lies Chorus Why d’you never love me - you're never gonna want me Why d’you never want me Why d’you never call me Unless you want someone Repeat Repeat

My Walk 03:13
My Walk When I used to do some things I used to do Those things I wanted to do When times were really hard I had no where to go No where to run You turned my life right round And put me in the know You gave me life You put me in the light At a time when I did not At a time when I did not want to know Chorus You gave your life for me So that I could give my life to you I really love you I really want to know you When people first saw you They could not understand your view They should’ve known But they did not love you No Repeat Middle 8 My walk with you Gives me peace and joy of mind I really know that it must be One of a kind I wanna shout I want to share this with you So that everything’s in view Everything’s in view Chorus You gave your life for me So that I could give my life to you I really love you I really want to know you When people first saw you They could not understand your view They should’ve known But they did not love you Repeat (bridge) When I used to do some things I used to do Those things I wanted to do When times were really hard I had no where to go No where to run You turned my life right round And put me right in the know Chorus You gave your life for me So that I could give my life to you I really love you I really want to know you When people first saw you They could not understand your view They should’ve known But they did not love you Repeat

Smart Cafe 03:52
My Smart Café Verse 1 As I sit alone In a smart café Just thinking how unsmart I am As everything seems to wanna pass me by Why do people go Down their separate ways? They only walk with you part way As they go down their chosen paths To stay away Bridge Why do people say That they’re gonna stay? When they have to go Have to go have to go Please tell me why Why do people say that they’re Gonna stay? Why do people say That they’re gonna stay When they have to go Have to go Have to go Please tell me why Why people say that they have to lie? Verse 2 Sitting all alone In my smart café Still thinking how unsmart I am How can I get off this train that I’m sitting on? Why do people go Down their separate ways? They only walk with you part way As they go down their chosen paths To run away Middle 8 I know it will pass And it will not be the last time I feel this way No no no Sitting and watching the world go by As I sit in my smart café Repeat Outro As I sit alone In a smart café Just thinking how unsmart I am As everything seems to wanna pass me by Why do people go Down their separate ways? They only walk with you part way As they go down their chosen paths To run away As I sit alone In a smart café Just thinking how unsmart I am As everything seems to wanna pass me by

Media Style Of ADD Verse 1 It’s hard to be objective When your mouth gets in the way It’s hard to be objective When you’ve nothing good to say You talk about what matters to you But when d’at matter to me? What you said happened yesterday I’m living for today Chorus Oh, you, you you Not me, me, me I don’t feel love No! In this company Instrumental Oh yeah Break it down Break it down Break it down Verse 2 It takes some time To let the head relax To free some passion To get down off the max So start talking sensibly So start talking straight I’m not the kind of guy Who acts like a reprobate Chorus Who, who, who Am I, I, I To get to know you better To ask the question why Verse 3 It tires me listening to you Shouting when you’re talking It tires me listening to you Shut up!

Out Of Time 03:13
Out of time Chorus If I had a little more time With you I would say If I had a little more time With you I would say Repeat Verse 1 Listen to my prayer And don’t ignore my plea But hear and answer me As my thoughts Make me so fraught Hearing voices against me They leave me with Nothing but grief And disbelief With anguish in my heart Chorus If I had a little more time With you I would say If I had a little more time With you I would say Repeat Verse 2 You are my keeper And I have everything I need You take me to a quiet place Where I can get some peace Even though I walk through the shadows I have no fear Cos I know you are near You comfort me As it really should be Middle 8 I feel I wanna die But why oh why Must I tremble As I fly to the sky If I’d flown away To keep my fears at bay Because of you I fixed the hole In all of my heart Outro If I had a little more time With you I would say If I had a little more time With you I would say Repeat
