Meant To Be

When you're searching for some answers
In the middle of the night
When you wish that maybe one star
Would make everything right
When you're calling out for reasons
When you're finding none will do
When it's hard to keep believing
That all your dreams will come true
You can trust at least that everything will go along as planned
Though you may not have control of it inside your little hand
And if all the world came crashing down upon your beating heart
You'll know that it was meant to be from the start.
When you're lost without direction
So many of us are
When your heart's got no protection
It makes it easier to scar.
And sometimes scars can shade the future.
Inside you time can stand still.
And your life becomes a picture,
of what you'd like to be, but never will.
You can trust at least that everything will go along as planned
Though you may not have control of it inside your little hand
And if all the world came crashing down upon your beating heart
You'll know that it was meant to be from the start.
Just float along your winding stream.
Let the current help you dream.
In the end, who you are
decides which way you go, and how far.
And if time was meant to hurry
to leave our best years in the dust
If the world moves on, why worry?
You're only living the life you must.
And you can trust at least that everything will go along as planned
Though you may not have control of it inside your little hand
And if all the world came crashing down upon your beating heart
You'll know that it was meant to be
You'll know that it was meant to be
You know that it was meant to be from the start

Live In The Rain
04:24
|
|||
Close my eyes and you follow me
I'd forgotten the way that I see.
All this time and it's how I live,
Waiting for dreams to give
One more breath of life to you.
And I try to resist your hand
You're a painting from where I stand.
But you reach out and touch my face
I can't help but accept your embrace.
Somewhere you are dreaming too.
Is anything real when you're here with me?
If I taste your lips, will I ever be free?
And I always knew that you were the one,
But I'll always live in the rain if I'm chasing after the sun.
Wrapped up in shades of blue and brown,
The weight of the sky falling down.
With the warmth of the sun on my skin,
Wishing that life could begin
Just one more time.
Is anything real when you're here with me?
If I taste your lips, will I ever be free?
And I always knew that you were the one
But I'll always live in the rain if I'm chasing after the sun.
And you never will know,
I'm sick of watching you go
While I try to hold on.
But you're fading away
and in the light of day
You're gone.
I don't know how you find me here,
Why, come morning, you disappear.
Hear the rain on the road outside
And remember how hard I've tried
To believe it's all okay.
Is anything real when you're here with me?
If I taste your lips, will I ever be free?
And I always knew that you were the one
But I'll always live in the rain if I'm chasing after the sun.
I always knew that you were the one,
But I'll always live in the rain if I'm chasing after the sun.
I'll always live in the rain if I'm chasing after the sun.

A Little Bit
04:31
|
|||
At least when winter's been too long, the trees grow buds again.
At least if night is gonna come, the world will tell me when.
And sometimes all I need is something to believe in.
A breath of warmer air to help me keep on breathin'.
And as it turns out nothing really can be known for sure.
No sign to tell me how much more of this that I'll endure.
No strength to see a path beyond my clouded vision.
And no way out of living every wrong decision.
And all I need is a little bit of hope to keep me going on,
but there's just no light before the dawn.
Help me, is there anyone out there who can give me a sign,
to let me know my life will be just fine?
I can't fight any war if I believe that I can't win...
If there's no victory in sight, and there has never been.
And there's no way to keep myself from falling over,
with all the heartache that I carry on my shoulders.
And all I need is a little bit of hope to keep me going on,
but there's just no light before the dawn.
Help me, is there anyone out there who can give me a sign,
to let me know my life will be just fine?
Let me know my life will be just fine.
Let me know my life will be just fine.
I want to know what's on this path of mine.
And sometimes all I need is something to believe in.
Yeah, sometimes all I need is something...something...
And all I need is a little bit of hope to keep me going on,
but there's just no light before the dawn.
Help me, is there anyone out there who can give me a sign,
to let me know my life will be just fine?

Music In Me
04:19
|
|||
I've been trying to find,
A song within me.
I've been searching my mind,
My distant memory.
I've been trying to feel again,
But I'm empty.
Every note that I write,
Is you to my ears.
Every melody might
Be how my heart hears
Everything that you've said to me.
I'm empty.
You still are the music in me
And you still have my missing melody.
You still have the feelings I fight.
You still are every song I write.
Every inch of your face
Your simple beauty,
I can bring any place,
You're always with me.
Burning deep in my eyes I see,
One memory.
Maybe all that I need
Is one more love song.
To make a melody bleed
As I have for so long.
If my music could make you cry...
No, you're too strong.
You still are the music in me
And you still have my missing melody.
You still have the feelings I fight.
You still are every song I write.
You still have the feelings I fight.
You still are every song I write.

Hope In Love
03:53
|

Some may think I'm lost in sunshine
I choose to think that I have been found.
Head over heels, but I feel fine
Just as long as I know you're around.
Now I know you don't think I'm crazy,
'Cause I can tell that you're in this too.
The road I'm traveling's not as hazy
And I'm trusting my feelings for you.
Now there's hope in love
A will to trust the stars above
Reason to believe that even fairy tales come true.
What more could I compare
To brushing starlight from your hair?
You restored my faith in everything I ever dreamed love could do.
It seems to me that I have found the one
Whose golden hair could light the universe.
And yet our play has only just begun,
I guess I've had a lifetime to rehearse.
And I think it's safe to say I love you.
Well, I know it hasn't been long.
But what else am I supposed to do
Cause hiding it just seems so wrong.
Now there's hope in love
A will to trust the stars above
Reason to believe that even fairy tales come true.
What more could I compare
To brushing starlight from your hair?
You restored my faith in everything I ever dreamed love could do.

Safe And Sound
02:50
|

The way you whisper "goodnight Nicholas",
And plant your gentle kiss,
I'm in love with this.
And as I'm drifting off behind my eyes,
I hear your fading sighs.
They're lullabies
to me.
And when I'm lost inside a world of my own trouble,
Yeah, you
Smile at me and I know every day I'll be alright
As long as you're mine at night.
The way you sweetly fill me up inside,
You fight the fears I hide
'Till they subside.
Lying here with darkness all around,
And I'm safe and sound
With what I've found
In you.
And when I'm lost inside a world of my own trouble,
Yeah, you
Smile at me and I know every day I'll be alright
As long as you're mine at night.
I'm so glad you're mine tonight.

To Get Lost
04:42
|
|||
I said goodbye to my lonely heart
It's been falling to pieces since I first gave it away
And I don't think I could feel again
Like I'm lost in love, and a dream's coming true every day
And even though I'm happy
I still feel like a part of me is gone
The past lives inside me
And I can't move on
I've always been a romantic boy
I'd have given the world to be kissed under the moon
Holding hands with the perfect girl
Floating up on the breeze, to be let down all too soon
And here you are so pretty, beside me
And your hands are holding mine
I want to fall in love so blindly
But I can't fall back in time.
And I just want to get lost in your eyes
'Till the morning comes and takes us by surprise
And float away in the warmth of the sound
Of your heart beating close,
But I can't break away from the ground
I wish that I could believe once more
In a fairy tale love, wish that I could even dare
To feel the magic of holding you
But I spent my dreams on a girl who didn't care
And even though I want to, I just can't
Become who I used to be
And though I love you, I don't know
If you will ever know me
I just want to get lost in your eyes
'Till the morning comes and takes us by surprise
And float away in the warmth of the sound
Of your heart beating close,
But I can't break away from the ground
I said goodbye to my lonely heart
It's been falling to pieces since I first gave it away
And I don't think I could feel again
Like I'm lost in love, and a dream's coming true every day Even though I'm happy...

Impossible
03:45
|
|||
You catch the sunset in your hair
I wonder if you see me stare
It seems as though you want to share
The magic you possess
From everything that I can see
You're like a dream come true to me
I pray that we are meant to be
To be rid of loneliness.
Cause some things just seem impossible
How can you be so beautiful?
I'm gonna need a miracle.
You're like the brightest falling star
You seem so close but you're so far
I try to catch the beauty you are.
There's something there for us to find
I know that it's one of a kind
Can you read what's on my mind
Cause I can't stand to lose this chance
A bud has sprouted inside my heart
Waiting for our spring to start
You're not a girl who tears dreams apart
So can we nurture this romance?
Cause you're like the warmest summer breeze
That puts the world beneath at ease
That brings me to my knees
I'm clinging to your endless light
Praying you'll tell me this is right
That it's not an impossible fight
Some things just seem impossible
How can you be so beautiful?
I'm gonna need a miracle.
You're like the brightest falling star
You seem so close but you're so far
I try to catch the beauty you are.

Half As Much
03:33
|
|||
Fleeting light becomes the night
So many come and go
As each day goes by, more and more I try
To find myself another
Thought to keep thinking
I'm dreaming life away
Hoping that somehow, you're thinking of me now
That you hear my name
That you feel the same
Every thing I see is a memory
To remind me of your touch
Do you reminisce of every kiss
Do you miss me half as much
As I'm dreaming, dreaming you back into my arms
Twinkling stars, the passing cars
Aren't all that keep me awake
I'm wondering if you'll see, someone else, not me
In your nighttime fantasies.
So can you keep your love asleep
As each summer day grows long
The ghost of your heart is tearing mine apart
The sun sets beautifully
Are you watching it with me?
Every thing I see is a memory
To remind me of your touch
Do you reminisce of every kiss
Do you miss me half as much
As I'm dreaming, dreaming you back into my arms

A Day's End
04:51
|
|||
Every second of the day
My mind is always tempted to stray
To thoughts of you, I'm carried away
To a far off, distant place.
There's no place I'd rather be
Than somewhere, someplace, just you and me
Cause I live my life so happily
When I think of your face.
But now this day comes to an end
And I'm not ready to let go
In your arms is where I wish to spend
Each moment till tomorrow
Lyin' here with your photograph
Dreaming of the day
Thinking of the times we had
Before the sun went away
At the end of this day
All the daylight fades away
Every time we say goodbye
And I try to relive the way
I felt when my lips touched yours
My whole world was turned around
On one blissful day that I found
The most beautiful girl there is, I'm sure
I never felt this way before
But now this day comes to an end
And I'm not ready to let go
In your arms is where I wish to spend
Each moment till tomorrow
Lyin' here with your photograph
Dreaming of the day
Thinking of the times we had
Before the sun went away
At the end of this day
