ILLUSION 06:00
she's locked alone princess in white in her tower she's waiting there for her shining knight come to save her he came to her like in a dream so real it seemed he came alive so..when her love was near but love he fears falling so deep under his spell in a moment but his war torn heart still cold, can't melt enough to love her he comes alive so.. when her love is near so real it seems to rescue her and from the dream within but it's love he fears alone again feeling lost without her knight his presence still haunts her t'was a phantom ghost in the shadows dark that night beneath the armour and is love just an illusion?

JULIENNE 03:03
all your anger all your hurt it don't matter in the end what you had and what you lost and her name was Julienne well, days go by we start again the stars still burning bright talk of forever? - we've only got today are these dreams made for fools not knowing all the moves? but so in love with her like a friend that won't let go there to haunt you till the end and creeping up now and again her name was Julienne well, days go by we start again the stars still burning bright talk of forever? - we've only got today are these dreams made for fools not knowing all the moves? seems so long ago beyond the life that we now know with innocence we'd glide beneath the stars and memories in the wind they're pulling at our skin well, days go by we start again the stars still burning bright talk of forever? - we've only got today are these dreams made for fools not knowing all the moves? but so in love with her

trying hard just to stay alive working hard at your nine to five keeps getting tougher every day people can’t leave you alone so you're gonna disconnect the phone making a mad world go away tomorrows not enough you know you can’t give up waiting for joy to come your way well someday you're gonna shine someday you will be fine live your tomorrows here today looking at this long road ahead hearing voices in your head saying, don't look back, just carry on so you live your life day by day can’t do it any other way tomorrow's a promise to no one can’t see what’s ahead your eyes are blinded by the sun yesterday's forgotten, dead and gone live your life for today and you' ll find a way while a crazy world goes on and on and on…

dreaming of a holiday an island paradise we can take a slow boat now or we can fly we can escape far from the sound of this city and wake up by the sea holidays and getaways we’re doing fine now we're walking hand in hand to a sunrise holidays and getaways just close your eyes now we’re in paradise so let’s head far away on an ocean blue in a rented motor boat just me and you to our island hideaway, I guess we've found the key and now that we are free...

WELLSPRINGS 05:14
lonely man, he searches all around 'till finally his true love can be found secrets unlocked now in his soul now his love can flow and woman gives her heart to a man from her fountain of love deep within overflowing into his hands giving life to them above all things always guard your heart for it is the Wellspring where life starts from the time we're born until we go like a river our life gently flows but our hearts get broken everyday carelessly we give our away guard your heart like it was of gold treasures to behold

look at me now eyes deep in shadows look at me now stood in a crowd look at me now dream what I dream as time slowly passes dream what I dream stare at the clouds and hear not a sound one night one love one life to make it good and one touch one kiss of happenstance one step away one look away from all this heartache now love comes slow but leaves so fast feel what I feel it's 3am - same old story feel what I feel pray what I pray don't turn away one night one love one life to make it good and one touch one kiss of happenstance one step away one look away from all this heartache now love comes slow but leaves so fast look at me now...

SAFE ARRIVAL 03:54
when you were feeling insecure when you were looking but never sure testing the waters now and then there's someone who knows you rather well someone who built you up again a shoulder to cry on as and when safe arrival now from under your lonely cloud living the fairy tale again so guide this ship to port from all the storms you've fought this can be your journey's end a second chance to live once more the lights shine bright along the shore the harbour walls come into view a new beginning from the past as the sail fills up the mast the wind blows softly behind you
8.
here I stand staring down on a windswept bridge high off the ground why did you hurt me so? and no matter how you try perfections seldom found in this life my illusions are forlorn was there something I did wrong along the way? forget me not.... just want you here in my arms again see the love that stings my eyes just need you close to my heart again 'cos love comes in disguise not angry 'cos I love you so don't hate you 'cos I need you so why did you change from who I know and knew so well? but I guess I'll make it through I love you and I know you love me too choices made and chances go I'm searching for a place called hope and dreams made of gold

there are storm clouds overhead while she listens in her bed coming nearer slowly so bring on down this rain to wash away the pain she's made him feel so lonely so here's Lord Thundering Man he's doing what he can "I'm not enough" he cries "I'm wanting more" she will reply he gave the whole of his life to be there by her side let her hear his sounds of thunder he tried to read between the lines and understood her mind but the spell that he is under now... he's Lord Thundering Man and he's doing what he can when the moon comes out to shine emotions at last subside let her heart be a little softer...

you said goodbye I watched love fly don't wanna cry you turned away what could I say? I thought you'd stay when the rain came pouring down all I heard was the sad sound of my heart beating slower still oh, my love, you left too soon when two souls seemed together and so true you said goodbye I watched love fly don't wanna cry then came the pain alone again as the rain came pouring down all I heard was the sad sound of my heart beating slower still oh, my love, you left too soon when two souls seemed together and so true sad chords always make me cry these frozen teardrops in my eyes fill the ice pond where my hopes once lay I guess I'll need to start again and in time forget the way I feel today and still the rain came pouring down but all I heard was the sad sound of my heart beating slower still oh, my love, you left too soon when two souls seemed together and so true if only you had turned around heard my heartbeat a lonely sound out of rhythm and so out of tune I guess I'll need to start again and in time forget the way I feel today I watched love fly sad chords goodbye
