In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea Far from the madness, that folds around me Peaceful and gentle, like sails on the breeze In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea There's a warm light on a cold night And clean cotton sheets Soap smellin' skin and tinglin' feet With stars linin' the skyline And shine through the trees In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea And when the autumn comes down We'll get what we need from the town And all of our friends will be round In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea Moon white as paper and night black as sleep With old things behind us and new things to be In an old house on a hillside Next to the sea And when the sunshine comes down My hair will turn golden And my skin will turn brown And all of our friends will be round

There's a warm little home on a hill And the presents that's hiding somewhere And the world is so peaceful and still You can almost hear love in the air There's a blanket of snow on the ground And a bright little star in the sky And your heart knows that Santa is around By the twinkle in everyone's eye There's gift bringing and bells ringing And warm little feet by the fire There are kids playing and folks praying And somewhere the sound of a choir There's two people who never will part And two stockings we still have to fill There's a warm little place in my heart For our warm little home on the hill There is gift bringing and bells ringing And warm little feet by the fire There are kids playing and folks praying And somewhere the sound of a choir There's two people who never will part And two stockings we still have to fill There's a warm little place in my heart For our warm little home on the hill

It starts with a spark, a breath and a moment of still A flicker, a glow, as the oxygen spills Through a delta of spindles and stone Kindled from nothing in a whisper of smoke There a gift ignites; a cursive thought takes flight And there's a dancer, twisting in between the spines Give her the breather's kiss, and watch her spirit lift She'll take over the stage, and take over the night Learning how to make a name From the words we can't keep in Learning how to strike a flame And draw her fire from nothing I don't know where to begin To make the words take shape How to nurture a flame And raise it to a blaze That on the clearest night can be seen forever I don't know where to begin, or begin again Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh It's not enough, because outside the night is still cold The fog is collect'd on the sill Feed the house to the fire to let out the light Consumed and inspired, burned magnesium white It spills from the hearth Take the curtains, the carpet To fuel the insatiable fire inside We'll set fire to a hill, so intense That it will be the brightest star on this side of the sky Learning how to make a name From the words we can't keep in Learning how to strike a flame And her draw fire from nothing I don't know where to begin To make the words take shape How to nurture a flame, and raise it to a blaze That on the clearest night can be seen forever I don't know where to begin, or begin again Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Ah ah ah, ah, ah, ah, oh I don't know where to begin To make the words take shape How to nurture a flame, and raise it to a blaze That on the clearest night can be seen forever I don't know where to begin, begin again Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Get a house on a hill Make a whole lotta money That's when I'll be okay Get a hit, make it big Maybe that's when they'll love me All my problems will go away Ooo-ooo-ooo Yeah, the grass is green But I wish it was greener Ooo-ooo-ooo Lately, I can't help but wonder What if I get everything I want? What if nothing ever fills me up? What if being happy isn't what I thought, oh? What if more is never enough? What if I have everything right now? And I'm missing what it's all about What if being happy isn't what I thought, oh? What if more is never enough? It's a rush, it's a thrill Til the second I get it And I'm over it instantly Got my head in the clouds But I'm missing the sunset Chasing the next best thing Ooo-ooo-ooo Yeah, the sky is blue, but I wish it was bluer Ooo-ooo-ooo Lately I can't help but wonder What if I get everything I want? (I want?) What if nothing ever fills me up? (Fills me up?) What if being happy isn't what I thought, oh? What if more is never enough? What if I have everything right now? And I'm missing what it's all about What if being happy isn't what I thought, oh? What if more is never enough? (What if it's never enough?) (More and more and more and more enough) When is more and more and more and more enough? What if I get everything I want? What if nothing ever fills me up? (Fills me up?) What if being happy isn't what I thought, oh? No, I can't help but wonder, baby What if I have everything right now? And I'm missing what it's all about What if being happy isn't what I thought, oh? What if more is never enough? When is more and more and more and more enough? When is more and more and more and more enough? (More and more and more and more enough)

If it takes time I've tried to open up My own life To your skies Leads me on a search For some love That I had once But I lost touch 'Cause I'm always on my own I'm lonely to the bone And I wonder if I took flight If I tried Maybe I would land on your side But I'm always on my own mind But I'm always on my own Is it heartbreak Maybe innocence Or naivete Oh, not everything's about me Noticing from the outskirts Like a ghost town Feels like you're losing on your home ground Could somebody love me through August? 'Cause I'm always on my own I'm lonely to the bone And I wonder if I took flight If I tried Maybe I would land on your side But I'm always on my own mind (Will I ever get out of it?) But I'm always on my own (Will I ever get out of it?) Will I ever get out of it? Will I ever get out of it?

And you thought that you didn't deserve it Well, you're wrong And you've got so much on your shoulders Stay strong And you thought that you didn't deserve it Well, you're wrong And you've got so much on your shoulders Stay strong Big love ahead Mountaintops you'll scale Big love ahead Mountaintops you'll scale I saw you smile for the first time and I hope it lasts a while now If you fall, I'll catch you You've been lost in a canyon Big love Big love Big love ahead Mountaintops you'll scale Big love ahead Mountaintops you'll scale You'll scale

Up above somewhere high, you and I go Don't deny, we were fine, with our eyes closed Bodies lie in a field, only we know. Talked for hours, underneath the earth's glow. I'm in tonight I won't put up a fight. Did we force that, did we force that, it was cold out. Love the rain, when it's not falling from your eyes There was shattered glass, Where the kids don't ask, What the problem is, It's all the same, Cuz All we been through, This fire, we survived Up above somewhere high, you and I go Don't deny, we were fine, with our eyes closed Bodies lie in a field, only we know. Talked for hours, underneath the earths glow. My words cut like shards of glass Cut you to your core. Bruises on my heart would last From things I won't let go. I'm in tonight I won't put up a fight. Did we force that, did we force that, it was cold out. Love the rain, when it's not falling from your eyes There was shattered glass, Where the kids don't ask, What the problem is, It's all the same, Cuz All we been through, This fire, we survived.

Held my bluff this time 'Cause I'm no featherweight But are you fine We're through the garden gate Is it you or I don't know Or do we play charades I need all of you to hold on to So we don't fade away Can we let go of the birds and bees? Nothing ruined you and me I don't care if we're wilting All we need, babe Is some watering, ohh, ohh Now the gloves are off And the bell is rung Is there a better way to understand How to love someone Can we let go of the birds and bees? Nothing ruined you and me I don't care if we're wilting All we need, babe Is some watering, ohh, ohh Is some watering, ohh

Every Rose has its thorns, I guess So you're wrapping your feelings in a vest 'Cause the more you know The more you wish you knew less 'Cause I've seen you broke I've seen you torn to shreds Ah, ha, ah So if you're stuck watching TV Wishing you were not 'Cause everything That you're feeling You wish you forgot And if you're stuck watching TV Wishing you were not 'Cause everything that you're feeling You wish you forgot How you wish you forgot All day sitting in your own space If you wanna heal, you don't need a miracle It's a cold face Shadow in the doorway Saying you won't get out You can't get out to hide away So if you're stuck watching TV Wishing you were not 'Cause everything That you're feeling You wish you forgot And if you're stuck watching TV Wishing you were not 'Cause everything that you're feeling You wish you forgot So if you're stuck in a memory Wishing it was not Know, you can call me And I'll be around
