Pedestal
Sorry to report I've fallen off my pedestal,
But I never asked for you to put me there,
Now maybe you'll see me as a person, warts and all,
And one who really hopes to find that you still care.
So here's to being real,
And who knows what our honesty will reveal,
Sure it could change how you feel,
Or it could sweeten the deal.
And now you know the score,
You might even love me more.
Honey I can see the disappointment in your eyes,
But we're gonna make mistakes along the way.
Sorry if you feel that you've lost something that you prize,
But you could change your mind if you decide to stay.
So here's to being real,
And who knows what our honesty will reveal,
Sure it could change how you feel,
Or it could sweeten the deal.
I never said that I could be,
Anything extraordinary,
Now that you've seen the whole of me...
Now that you've seen the whole of me,
Sure it could change how you feel,
Or it could sweeten the deal.
It could change how you feel,
Or it could sweeten the deal.
It could sweeten the deal.

As we are
Yes we are okay as we are,
Still we find a way to be unhappy.
Can we find a way as we are,
We can learn to say we can just be happy?
And oh let it go,
Let it go,
And be happy.
Can we bear to be as we are,
And imperfectly let ourselves be happy?
Yes we are okay as we are,
We can find a way, we can just be happy.
And oh let it go,
Let it go
Let the thoughts we hold on to,
That make us feel bad,
Go the way that they ought to,
Let go! Let go!
And oh let it go,
Let it go,
And be happy
And be happy
Yes we are okay as we are,
So be happy
Yes we are okay as we are,
So be happy
Yes we are okay as we are,
So be happy
As we are

I Don't Mind The Rain
When I see your face on a cloudy day,
There's a part of me that don't miss the sun,
Cos when you call my name
I don't mind the rain,
I don't mind the rain.
Honey when all's said it's a mystery,
I wouldn't change a thing, even if I could,
Well it would be a shame
Cos I don't mind the rain,
I don't mind the rain.
Love there comes a time when we need to decide,
Whether we are in for life or just along for the ride,
And no matter what I'm always on your side.
There's a part of me that is yours alone,
And I think you know when you've heard the truth,
So call to me again, cos I don't mind the rain,
I don't mind the rain.
So call to me again, I don't mind the rain
I don't mind the rain.
I don't mind, I don't mind the rain,
I don't mind, I don't mind the rain,
I don't mind, I don't mind the rain.

Recreated
I put my music on,
I turn it up,
I'm in another time,
And all the things they said,
Go flying from my head,
I feel like I've been recreated.
I put my music on,
I feel alive,
I'm in another place,
And all the things they said,
Go flying from my head,
I feel like I've been recreated.
And I can feel my mind floating free,
It takes me to a place I want to be,
Don't mean to shut you out,
That's not what it's about,
Follow me...
I put my music on,
I feel alive,
I'm in another time,
And all the things they said,
Go flying from my head,
I feel like I've been recreated.
Recreated,
I put my music on.
Recreated,
I put my music on.
Recreated,
I put my music on.

Love in our sights
So here we go again misunderstanding what the other means,
I find it hard to see why it's always me in the wrong it seems.
It helps to see that the dark clouds will keep moving,
When we've got love in our sights.
So here we go again disappearing into our own fears,
I wonder what's gone wrong to bring all this on everything's unclear.
It helps to see that the dark clouds will keep moving,
When we've got love in our sights.
So we bide our time,
We both know,
Love will show.
It helps to see that the dark clouds will keep moving,
When we've got love that the dark clouds will keep moving,
When we've got love in our sights.

When love comes calling

When love comes calling.
Knocked back but you don't give up,
You just get back out there again.
That one wasn't up to much,
But this one looks more promising.
You can't help falling,
When love comes calling.
You watch as the years go by,
Each one quietly taking its toll.
But you keep your spirits high,
Your faith in a class of its own.
You can't help falling,
When love comes calling.
And something's gonna change (something's gonna change)
Yeah something's gonna change (something's gonna change)
Yeah something's gonna change (something's gonna change)
Yeah something's gonna change.
You can't help falling,
When love comes calling.
You can't help falling,
When love comes calling.

Over Out
You thought,
We needed to talk
Clearly,
So do you hear me?
No I'm not feeling fine,
But when did that ever matter,
Deal with things your way, I'm
Taking cover,
Over out.
Nothing,
Is always something
Hidden,
Never forgiven.
No I'm not feeling fine,
But when did that ever matter,
Deal with things your way, I'm
Taking cover,
Over out.
No I'm not feeling fine,
But when did that ever matter,
Deal with things your way, I'm
Taking cover,
Over out.
Over out.
Over out.

This is the story of the last time,
That I let you into my mind.
This is the story of a dawning,
Of a turning,
The bridge is burning.
Yeah...

The way that you move

The way that you move
Well it helps that you know what it is that you want,
It's so you when you act like you're so innocent.
But you're not fooling me,
And you're not fooling any one,
It's the way that you move.
You make a fool of me,
And make an art of how it's done.
It's the way that you move.
Well you know that I'm not gonna stand in your way,
You pretend it's a game that we both like to play.
But you're not fooling me,
And you're not fooling any one,
It's the way that you move.
You make a fool of me,
And make an art of how it's done,
It's the way that you move.
There's a synchronicity,
I can feel the energy,
But I sense a dissonance at its heart.
To resist this push and pull,
Well it seems impossible,
Can what's not real really fall apart?
Well I long for the day when I know you'll be mine,
Even though you say I should stop wasting my time.
Well you're not fooling me,
And you're not fooling any one,
It's the way that you move.
You make a fool of me,
And make an art of how it's done,
It's the way that you move.
And you're not fooling me,
It's the way that you move.
You make a fool of me,
And make an art of how it's done,
It's the way that you move.

You'll never be sure
You will show yourself and know nothing about it,
You will hold your heart out to the world,
You will get somewhere and not know how you found it,
And there are things you'll wish that you have heard.
You will speak your mind and find something has changed it,
And you will lose some dreams along the way,
And those dreams you've lost, you'll find that you don't mind it,
Cos there'll be others coming home to stay.
You'll give it all,
You won't hold it back,
You will find yourself,
But you'll never be sure.
You will show yourself and know nothing about it,
And you will hold your heart out to the world,
You will get somewhere and not know how you found it,
You will hold your heart out, you will hold your heart out.
You'll give it all,
You won't hold it back,
You will find yourself,
But you'll never be sure.
You will give it all,
Never hold it back,
You will find yourself,
But you'll never be sure.
