Don't Get Too Close

Don’t get too close or I’ll fall in love,
The fragile moments between us,
Cos I saw the spark in your sweet eyes,
And the inevitable end, disaster,
But the bits in between would be sublime.

Would you pass up pleasure and avoid regret?
You know snowflakes fall upon barren soil,
Cos I felt something when our skin touched,
But you smiled turned your head and walked away,
Mmm not today.

Well how can we sit here and ignore
The fragile moments between us both?
Cos what we both need could make this work,
Should we get closer and fall in love?
We can sleep on it if you don’t go home.

Comfort You

Is it you?
The one I’ve been looking for?
I really can’t be too sure,
How can I ask for more?
It’s all right,
Cos I don’t mind a little dream,
Even if you do not seem,
To realise what you’re doing to me.

I will comfort you at night,
Wait until the morning light,
Dance you slow and hold you tight,
I will come to comfort you.

Now you see,
All the synchronicity,
That falls between you and me,
You got me fixed on your intrigue,
How can I,
Resist your smile?
You’re beautiful there’s no denial,
Just walk with me a little while more.

I will comfort you at night,
Wait until the morning light,
Dance you slow and hold you tight,
I will come to comfort you.

I’ll be there when your worlds collide,
I’ll fight the titans and your Mr Hyde,
The only thing I’ll ask of you,
Is just sing to me in your lounge room.

I will comfort you at night,
Wait until the morning light,
Dance you slow and hold you tight,
I will come to comfort you.

Thursday's My Happy Day

I want you,
But I know that I can’t have you,
But I still want you,
I want you to know,
I need some of your lovin.

I saw you,
It must have been last Thursday,
Now Thursday’s my happy day yeah,
But now Thursday’s gone,
I can’t wait for your face again.

I can’t wait for your face,
To replace my unhappy day,
But now Thursday’s gone,
Bring me back my happy day.

Thursday’s my happy day,
Thursday’s my happy day,
Thursday’s late night shopping day,
Bring me back my happy day,
And now Thursday, Thursday is gone,
Bring me back my happy day.

The Birthday Card

I wrote you a birthday card,
It had a little face on it,
It’s still sitting on my windowsill,
I can read you what I wrote, it says,
I miss you.

I’m sure that you’ve heard this before,
In the songs of love and loss,
I can’t help this way I feel,
It’s silly I know but still,
I miss you.

There’s more that I have to say,
Still sitting on my windowsill,
Heal your heart and speak honest and true,
And stay away from foolish boys,
And I miss you.

I miss your smile I miss your warmth,
I miss the times we used to talk,
I miss your laughs I miss your hold,
Shield each other from the cold,
I miss the time that you and me,
Looked over all that scenery,
But most of all on the whole,
It just seems that I miss you.

Stuff To Make You Go Mmm

I don’t know where to begin she’s got me torn,
I try to keep my distance but it’s hard to say no,
This may end in tears but I prefer to feel than not,
Warm, soft and silky smooth on my ears,
With stuff to make me go mmm.

She is as soft as the s in kiss,
Like the addiction that everyone needs,
This will end in tears but I’m not afraid anymore,
Moments in time go awry,
She whispers infatuations.

She is the one you want to know but when you do it just hurts,
And I try to forget the things she does but then you know it gets worse,
Yeah she is the one you want to know but when you do it just hurts,
So bad she’s in my dreams.

Soft as the s in kiss,
Whisper infatuations,
With stuff to make me go mmm.

Caress Me

Brother come play with me,
In the sands where time stands still,
Our water is our toy, and the waves our joy,
As we swim with the dolphins.

Friends gather round come play with me,
And build castles made of sand,
Our treasures are all rocks, and the shells our crowns,
As we play like kings.

Caress me,
Protect me,
Save me from this world.

About this Girl

She won't look in to your eyes
Cos she's afraid she'll fall in love
Even though the gaze from my eyes
Will show her how I care

She was a girl forced to be a woman
With the hurt that churns and burns within her skin
Well I feel for you
But I don't think I feel it all

Her walls are thick and guarded
And her reasons must be justified I'm sure
But be careful
Be careful if you let yourself in

Cos someday she'll rise
Beautiful and free
Maybe she can watch over me

Cos someday she'll rise
And emerge herself a butterfly
With the grace of the royal lioness

And she'll rise

Steal My Sorrow

Lit by night's glow
She slips in to his hands
And she seems like something's on her mind
So she leans to him and whispers

Hey, what would you say if I asked you to
Steal my sorrow

He just sits there
He's slipped in to his slumber
So she dreams of an angel just for her
And it speaks to her softly

Hey, what would you say if I asked you to
Sleep in for me

Angel says,
Come with me now
Leave all that you have been
I won't be here when you wake

So she thinks of what she has been
And she seems like something's still on her mind
So she asks herself quietly

Hey, what would I say if I asked myself to
Not stop dreaming

Angel replies,
Come with me now
Leave all that you have been
Cos I won't be here when you wake

And come with me now
Leave all that you have been
Cos I will strip your sorrow

Still lit by moon's glow she
Slips back in his hands

You and Him

You and him are not the same
I know this why doesn't he
He won't reach and take your hand
You could find another man
Atleast that's what I think anyway

But if you take me with your eyes
And look this way for a while
It's hard to forget you
Especially when you make me

Why do you share with me
You got your demons and I've got mine
I can't come to break your spell
Cos you may find a deeper well
That's what I think anyhow

If you take me with your eyes
Look this way for a while
It's hard to forget you
Especially when you make me

You are stronger than he thinks
You've got your vision and he's impaired
Come with me in to the night
Where Lightpoles will guide our next flight
That's my dream anyhow

It's my dream as of now
It's my dream anyway

Well I will reach and take your hand
I could be that other man
Lose your fear and your shame
I will use your favourite name
Don't you worry about my well
Cos I will break both our spells

Thats my plan as of now
