"A Place Nearby" I entered the room Sat by your bed all through the night I watched your daily fight I hardly knew The pain was almost more than I could bear And still I hear Your last words to me. Heaven is a place nearby So I won't be so far away. And if y...

"All I Can Say" If I got scared I don't know It just didn't feel right anymore Something's changed from before, I wish I knew I did not want to hurt you, I don't want to still But I'll be around, you know I will I just have to face the day Now all I can say...

"Another Day" Lie to me, say that you need me That's what I wanna hear That is what, what makes me happy Hoping you'll be near All this time, how could I know Within these walls, I can feel you Another day goes by, will never know just wonder why You...

Wish I could lay down beside you On a blanket in a park somewhere With some music and some wine maybe Your gentle arms around me I wouldn't wish for anything more except that time would stand still And I pretend You were mine And you'd never ever leave And I...

I just want to lock the door Leave it all outside Turn off all the lights I just want to hide Don't bother look for me Not even sure that you would So I don't have to tell I'm not feeling well these days Just give me directions I'll go anywhere I need to find...

"Disguise" Have you ever felt some kind of emptiness inside You will never measure up, to those people you Must be strong, can't show them that you're weak Have you ever told someone something That's far from the truth Let them know that you're okay Just to m...

Do you remember those days When the sound of the rain made your day You'd put on your raincoat, play in the mud Nothing can take all that joy away One cup of cocoa, then off to bed Mud, still in your hair You didn't care, fall asleep with a smile on your face...

"Fight Against The Hours" I'm here, sitting in a bed In a place where I don't feel at home Where are you, I sure wonder why You haven't called me, you promised you would The phone must be broken it has to be broken I'm sure there's a reason, say there's...

"Flown Away" I've flown too high on borrowed wings Beyond the clouds and where the angels sings In a sky containing no one but me Up there's all empty and down there's the sea No one here but me There's nothing but light That comes into sight There's somethi...

"From This Day" There's a day I never will forget The day we met, when we met I know that they all thought that you were good You were good, we were good From this day on, I'll follow you I'll keep you near, like I promised to And I swear to you I won...

Sometimes I can't take my eyes off you Afraid that if I look away you're gone Don't know what I would do then Don't want to let you go It took some time but now I know Have I ever told you that you saved me Thanked for all the good things that you gave me Now...

Keeping my distance I look but I don’t really see It’s like things lose their color And people are walking right through me To not pay attention Not easy to see what’s passing you by I gave it a try Did not see you coming my way Now you wanna hold my hand You...

"How Would It Be" What have I done? What if it's too late now? Did I do all I could, did I? Did I make it good, did I? Somehow it doesn't feel right Is it really all over? Did I think it through, did I? What if all I want is you? And now I won't see you aga...

"It's True" I wish I could, Sit here all alone Thinking this is okay Don't need anybody tonight, Just complete silence and the candle light And I'd drink my coffee, Wouldn't worry at all... wouldn't worry at all I would feel fine Like I always do I would be...
