I go out late at night just to see what I can find Stayin' in the shadows where the light don't ever shine Having one-way conversations with the darkness in my mind He does all the talking 'cause I'm the quiet kind So peel it off, pull 'em down Let me see it, turn around Just lay back and let it happen And remember to breathe Staying off the radar like a bomber on the run Do another lap around the target just for fun Stayin' quiet, keeping calm until I find the one Feel the wave wash over me when the deed is done So peel it off, pull 'em down Let me see it, turn around Just lay back and let it happen And remember to breathe Well, just lay back Oh, just lay back Oh, just lay back Oh, just lay back Oh, just lay back Oh, just lay back, oh, just lay back And remember to breathe Well, just lay back now and let it happen And remember to breathe

She fixes her lips they always look perfect Never a smudged line, never too much I try on my blue shirt She told me she liked it, once She wonders what I'll wear? She knows just what she'll wear She always wears blue So, sneakers or flip flops? I'm starting to panic Remember she asked you? Remember to breathe And everything will be okay Okay, alright, alright, alright Alright, alright, alright, alright Okay

As I watch you move Across the moonlit room There's so much tenderness in your lovin' Tomorrow I must leave The dawn knows no reprieve God, give me strength when I am leaving So raise your hands to Heaven and pray That we'll be back together someday Tonight I need your sweet caress Hold me in the darkness Tonight you calm my restlessness You relieve my sadness As we move to embrace tears run down your face I whisper words of love so softly I can't believe this pain It's driving me insane Without your touch life will be lonely So raise your hands to Heaven and pray That we'll be back together someday Tonight I need your sweet caress Hold me in the darkness Tonight you calm my restlessness You relieve my sadness Tonight I need your sweet caress Hold me in the darkness Tonight you calm my restlessness You relieve my sadness Morning has come another day I must pack my bags and say goodbye, goodbye Tonight I need your sweet caress Hold me in the darkness Tonight you calm my restlessness You relieve my sadness Tonight I need your sweet caress Hold me in the darkness Tonight you calm my restlessness (you calm my restlessness) You relieve my sadness

I don't wanna go yet I don't wanna come yet Lying on your chest I think I know you best I don't wanna go yet I don't wanna come yet Lying on your chest I think I know you best

I could have you up in arms And I could have you singing I'm a confident speaker I could tell you anything I was standing on the table Legs by the light right near the window I could see them walking past They were laughing, no one we know They caught me by the ankles and they shook me out My brain is fuzzy I'm a sugar coated pill and I'm a pick me up And put me down again They hollowed me out, wore me like a glove I shook so many hands I've been dreaming of You can use my rib cage as a pillow It doesn't suit me I feel flimsy when I grin Like a stretched out piece of skin You can beat the dust straight out of me I'll come clean in the end I really like the yellow 'round the edges Of my bruises as they mend They took me by the ankles and they shook me out My brain turned fuzzy I'm a sugar coated pill and I'm a pick me up And put me down again They hollowed me out, wore me like a glove I shook so many hands I've been dreaming of

Sooner or later, you'll find yourself right where you were On the corner, went looking for her She had something to tell you, she can't quite remember But wait for a second, it always comes back to her You always come back to her You're still on her time, wherever you are You don't wanna go in, so you sit in the car And you wait for a feeling, it never quite hits And you wait for the moment she reaches your lips She never quite hits She'll do that thing where she sits at your feet And it used to be so hot, now it's just sweet You start to cry and she can't help but laugh She says, "Try to enjoy it as long as it lasts" Sometimes when you are alone, you can't look in her eyes 'Cause it's like you are reading a book And her pages are turning so fast in a glance You can see how it ends and you wish that you couldn't, oh-oh 'Cause it always comes back to her You always come back to her I drove to the ocean to see the sunset I was on the wrong side of the cliff, so I left I got talking to someone, I gave her a lift to the station She waved as she ran for her train And she had no idea she was making my day Sooner or later, you'll find yourself right where you were On the corner, went looking for her She had something to tell you, she can't quite remember But wait for a second, it always comes back to her You always come back to her You always come back to her (always come back to her) You always come back to her (always come back to her)

I needed someone to depend upon I was alone, I was emotional Searching for the right emoticon To expand my mental lexicon Then Gemma told me that she met someone It was the person I'd been counting on It felt good, it felt transitional A feeling I'd been waiting on You were floating like a lilo With your eyes closed, going where the tide goes Caught in flux, you drifted 'til you hit the sides Hold my breath another minute I can keep my head, there's nothing in it I'm a patient wave And it's an easy ride I saw myself an intellectual I thought that I was capable Every move was just habitual And life was just a ritual Then Gemma told me that she met somebody Nobody else could take me from myself I wasn't searching for it anymore The feeling I'd been waiting for You were floating like a lilo With your eyes closed, going where the tide goes Caught in flux, you drifted 'til you hit the sides Hold my breath another minute I can keep my head, there's nothing in it I'm a patient wave (I'm a patient wave) And it's an easy ride Floating like a lilo with you Going where the tide goes Floating like a lilo with you Going where the tide goes Floating like a Floating like a Floating like a Floating like a You were floating like a lilo With your eyes closed, going where the tide goes Caught in flux, you drifted 'til you hit the sides Hold my breath another minute I can keep my head, there's nothing in it I'm a patient wave (I'm a patient wave) And it's an easy ride

I saw you in a dream, you had stayed the same You were beckoning me, said that I had changed Tried to keep my eyes closed, I want you so bad Then I awoke and it was so sad Haven't talked to you in months And I thought that I might cry But I'm not that kind of guy I saw you in a dream, you came to me You were the sweetest apparition, such a pretty vision There was no reason, no explanation The perfect hallucination All good things come to an end But I thought that this might last But you came and left so fast And when I'm awake, I can't switch off It isn't the same but it is enough (It isn't the same but it is enough) I saw you in a dream, then it came to an end I wonder if you'll come and visit me again You're taking your time to reappear I'm starting to believe that when I call your name You just don't hear me anymore And I know that I shouldn't even try It's a waste of time And when I'm awake, I can't switch off It isn't the same but it is enough (It isn't the same but it is enough) And when I'm awake, I can't switch off It isn't the same but it is enough It isn't the same but it is enough
