HEAVEN’S WALL

Colin Devlin (Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World)

Through the rise and fall, through the urban sprawl
You can have my sight, then we can see it all
In your neon dreams you will know what it means
Outside of heaven’s wall

From the mountain top we’ll see the fires glow
Where everything you are is everything you know
And then the fear will come and we can feel as one
Outside of heaven’s wall

So come on, take my hand, I’ll see you through it all
And when the stars come out we can watch them fall
So come on, take my hand, we’ll rise above it all
Then we can meet as planned outside of heaven’s wall

From the tower blocks to the lakes and trees
When you know who you are you will be on your knees
And when the real rain comes then we can be as one
Outside of heaven’s wall

So come on, take my hand, I’ll see you through it all
And when the stars come out we can watch them fall
So come on, take my hand, we’ll rise above it all
Then we can meet as planned on top of heaven’s wall

FIREBALL

Cindy Alexander/Colin Devlin (JamCat Publishing BMI, Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World)

In the distance
As the light is fading low
Trying to find my own way home
I can see it
I’ve been searching for so long
Trying to find my own way home

You can wait
Yeah you can wait for time
But I can’t stay
‘Cause I know time won’t wait another day
No

You can’t catch me now
I’m a fireball
You can’t catch me now

I’ve been changing
Right before your very eyes
But you might as well be blind
Love moves on
When you don’t let it shine
And I’ve moved on
Took the best of me and left the rest behind

You can’t catch me now
I’m a fireball
You can’t catch me now
No you can’t catch me now
I’m a fireball
You can’t catch me now

I gave you everything I had
But I don’t want it back

Love moves on
Watch it shoot across the sky
And I’ve moved on
Took the best of me and left the rest behind

You can’t catch me now
I’m a fireball
You can’t catch me now
You can’t catch me now
I’m a fireball
You – You can’t catch me
I’m a fireball
You can’t catch me now
I’m a fireball

UNSPOKEN

Cindy Alexander/Colin Devlin (JamCat Publishing BMI, Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World)

You watch the world
A satellite
You hide behind your father’s eyes
I see the signs
They don’t make sense
Wish I could understand the version playing in your head
Yeah I try
I try getting through to you
Break it down to simple truth
You’re right
You can’t change
You never made me feel like I was home
And the love
We made together
Was only in the shadows where we’d go
Everything you said was unspoken

We run away
And then collide
In local bars and checkout lines
I know the deal
You’re not alone
She’s a reflection of myself from long ago
You don’t change
You never made me feel like I was home
And the love we made forever
Was only in the shadows where we’d go
Everything you said was unspoken
Everything we meant was unspoken

You call me up to make amends
To hear my voice so you can smile again
I bite my lip
Before I speak
All the years I held my tongue
I can let it go for once
You’re right
I can’t change
I’m looking for a heart to call my home
And the love we make together
Is only worth the love we feel alone
Everything you said was unspoken
Unspoken
For a moment I was safe inside your mind
Everything you say
Everything you say

PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE

Colin Devlin/Cindy Alexander (Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World, JamCatPublishing BMI)

If I could see you for the first time
Would it be different or just the same?
If I were young again and I could see you
Would it be different or just the same?

Lost in emotions that feel like echoes
Our days are numbered, lightning and silver
If we were young again and I could see you
Would it be different?

Fading out and falling away
On the path of least resistance
Day by day by day

I took a photograph to show you later
Too scared to disappear into the night
Like passing strangers among the homeless
Among the echoes
Lightning and silver

Fading out and falling away
On the path of least resistance
Day by day by day
We can change it if we try
I’m trying

Lights go out and we’re fading away
On the path of least resistance
Day by day by day
Fading out and falling away
We can change it
We can change it if we try
I’m trying
I’m trying

DEEP WATERS

Colin Devlin/Cindy Alexander (Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World, JamCatPublishing BMI)

Hold the line and don’t let go
It’s darker there G-d only knows
I’ve been trying for so long
To get back where we started from

These are deep waters we’re swimming in

Skies above are black and blue
Like the place you took me to
Like a dream that left me sore
And I keep coming back for more

These are deep waters we’re swimming in
These are deep waters we’re swimming in

Take me down I wanna know
How it feels to just let go
How it feels to lose myself in you
Pull me quiet down below
Where the rage and rhythm flow
Where they say we should never go

Into deep waters
These are deep waters
Deep waters
We’re swimming in
We’re swimming in
We’re swimming in

Take me down I wanna know
How it feels to just let go
How it feels to lose myself in you
Pull me quiet down below
Where the rage and rhythm flow
Where they say we should never go

Into deep waters
Deep waters
Deep waters
We’re swimming in
We’re swimming in
We’re swimming in

These are deep waters
Take me down
Deep waters
Pull me down
These are deep waters
We’re swimming in
We’re swimming in
We’re swimming in

Hold the line and don’t let go
It’s darker there G-d only knows
These are deep waters
Deep waters
We’re swimming in

FOREVER BOUND

Cindy Alexander/Colin Devlin (JamCat Publishing BMI, Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World)

When you wake up
I’ll be gone
But you can find me
In this song
Sing my love
My breath
My truth
See they’re all there
Wrapped up in you
We are one
When you sing

I’m in your heart
and all around you
I’ll come to you with the speed of sound
I’ll be your voice
My song surrounds you
Forever bound
Forever bound

If the stars
Should all burn out
Then make your way
To sacred ground
Let my prayer
Take you there

I’m in your heart
And all around you
I’ll come to you
With the speed of sound
I’ll be your voice
And my song surrounds you
Forever bound
Forever bound

(Ah Ah’s)

I’m in your heart
And all around you
I’ll come to you
With the speed of sound
I’ll be your voice
My song surrounds you
Forever bound

You’re in my heart
And all around me
You come to me
With the speed of sound
You are my song
Your love surrounds me
Forever bound
Forever bound
Forever bound

(Ah Ah’s)

GOOD MOTHER

Jann Arden/Robert Foster
Composed by Jann Arden Richards and Robert Foster (P) 1994 Published by Universal – Songs of Polygram International Publishing Inc. o/b/o itself and Girl On The Moon Music and Pannal Ash Publishing

I’ve got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I’ve got a friend who loves me
Got a house
I’ve got a car
I’ve got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here
Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Just be yourself

I’ve – I’ve never wanted anything
No I’ve – No I’ve – I’ve never wanted anything so bad

Cardboard masks of all the people I’ve been
Thrown out with all the rusted
Tangled dented G-d damn misery
You could say I’m hard to hold
But if you knew me you’d know
I’ve got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry
Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Just be yourself

I’ve-I’ve never wanted anything
No I’ve – No I’ve – I’ve never wanted anything so bad
So bad

I’ve got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I’ve got a friend who loves me
Got a house
I’ve got a car
I’ve got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here
Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Just be yourself
Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Just be yourself
Just be yourself
Just be yourself
Be yourself
Just be yourself

PUSH

Cindy Alexander/Colin Devlin (JamCat Publishing BMI, Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World)

Strange weather
Storms coming
I can feel it on the back of your hand
Hot fever
Time’s running
I’m living like today is your last

Up against a wall
Trying to break free
Pressure drop it’s hard to breathe

You push me
I push back
A little harder
Do you like that?
It’s a long way down
On a thin line
It’s a long way down
When love turns
The wrong way ‘round

Strange pleasure
Rough edges
You’re playing in the back of my mind
Tight corners
Tough measures
You can’t have your way all the time
I swore you would never be
The call I made to kill the need

When you push me
I push back
A little harder now
Do you like it like that?
It’s a long way down
On a thin line
It’s a long way down
When love turns
The wrong way ‘round

You push me
I push back
A little harder now
Do you like it like that?
It’s a long way down
On a thin line
It’s a long way down
When love turns
The wrong way around

When love turns
The wrong way ‘round
When love turns
The wrong way ‘round

HANDS

Dave Darling/ Colin Devlin/ Cindy Alexander (Loud and Stupid Music BMI, Colin Devlin Music ASCAP for U.S., IMRO Rest of World, JamCat Publishing BMI)

Late into the night
I wonder what you’re dreaming
I fall by your side
To the rhythm of your breathing
I’ll be alright
I’ll be alright

I know I can make it through
Walk on water holding you
When you lay your hands on me
Heal the pain and set me free
Born again and I believe
When you lay your hands on me
Your hands on me

Shadows break the day
Sometimes we walk blindly
I am not afraid
I know that you will find me
And I’ll be alright
I’ll be alright

I know I can make it through
Walk on water holding you
When you lay your hands on me
Heal the pain and set me free
Born again and I believe
When you lay your hands on me
Your hands on me

And I’ll be alright
I’ll be alright

‘Cause I know I can make it through
Walk on water holding you
When you lay your hands on me
Tender mercy set me free
Born again and I believe
When you lay your hands on me
When you lay your hands on me
Your hands on me

RELENTLESSLY

Cindy Alexander (JamCat Publishing BMI)

I lean against the bar
He’s already got my drink
Old man on the left
Slips his number in my jeans
A glaze across my eyes
Counting olives in a glass
Stirring my emotions
With a cocktail straw in hand

I’ve had all I can stand
I know that there’ll be more
When I walk through the door

To the way of the world
Or maybe it’s just me
I only survive
When I live relentlessly

Posters on the wall
I peel ‘em back to see
Our names scrawled in Sharpies
To immortalize the dream
You know we were the real deal
Well maybe in my head
I’m one of those who went for broke
And paid her dues in debt

It’s the way of the world
Or maybe it’s just me
I only survive
When I live relentlessly

I’m flipping’ through the stacks
Of vinyl 45’s
I hear my life rewinding
As fast as it flew by
I’m gonna tell my little ones
So they can learn from me
I’d break my heart again
Just to love relentlessly

I hurt until I scream
I scream until I laugh
I laugh until I sing

It’s the way of the world
And you’re like me
We can only survive
When we love relentlessly
Someday you’ll see
We only survive
When we love relentlessly
