1. THE IRON SEA (MAGIC SHOP VERSION)

(Intrumental)


2. NEW ONE

I am the one
I am the only one that I care about
She is the one
She was always the one to go running around in another land
She go home

I am the one
I am always the one that I recognise
And you are the one for me
Always the one
I go running around in another land

I go home too
Will you miss me when I'm gone?
I'll take on to know that I was so
If you want to run away
I'll take back all that I'll say
I'll take on to know that I was so

I am the one
I am always the one to be recognised
She was the one
She was always the one to go running around in another land
She go home too

Will you miss me when I'm all gone?
I'll take on to know that I was so
Well you want to run away
I'll take back all that I'll say
I'll take on to know that I was so

I saw the full moon sinking
I saw the full moon sinking

If you want to run away
I'll take back all that I'll say
I'll take on to know that I was so
Well she wants to look away
She wants to run away
I'll take on to know that I was so

I saw the full moon sinking
I saw the full moon sinking


3. MAYBE I CAN CHANGE

Now, will it ever be the same again?
And it will it ever feel right?
The false start, then I try to twist your heart
But I supposed it always knows

I know how I let you down
But maybe I can change this time around
This heart and these hands are mine
Maybe I can change this time

Soon, I'm gonna be an older man
And I will struggle to remember
The blank space when I tried to see your face
The blinded eye, I can't replace

I know how I let you down
But maybe I can change this time around
This heart and these hands are mine
Maybe I can change this time

Oh why can't we go back again?
Rain, rain, will you ever go away?
Come back again some other day

I know how I let you down
But maybe I can change this time around
This heart and these hands are mine
Maybe I can change this time

But I've tired you out with the things I do
But I can change, and change you too
But still somehow, I have to say
"I'm on my way"
Gone


4. THIN AIR

I can't keep up, you're
Moving too fast,
Deep holes and darkness,
These things will pass.

Dark times and strange places where...

When I came to see you
You had nothing to say,
I stood right beside you,
You turned the other way,
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there,
You turn into air.

Trust me, I want you
Just as you are,
Don't change the things you do,
Just stay as you are.

Dark times and strange places where...

When I came to see you
You had nothing to say,
I stood right beside you,
You turned the other way,
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there,
You turn into air.

(Instrumental break)

Dark times and strange places where...

When I came to see you
You had nothing to say,
I stood right beside you,
You turned the other way,
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there,
You turn into air.


5. UNTITLED 2

Ya chewed me up and ya spat me out
The foolish boy that I am
So I chose to wander around and around
And make myself a man

I thought the world could be changed by
A good song and smile
But its been this way such a long time
So maybe I?M wrong

So long ago it must be
You're still the one that's troubling me
And still so far, so far away
I sat with a tear in my hand on a day so long ago

Inside I am an ogre
With the simple thoughts of a child
I say what I think and I need to be loved
But I guess that's not your style

So long ago it must be
That you're still the one that's troubling me
And still so far, so far away
I sat with a tear in my hand on a day so long ago


6. HE USED TO BE A LOVELY BOY

Time to leave this town
Now your dreams have all let you down,
No one here will miss you now,
Time to wake up and look around.

He used to be a lovely boy,
Lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.

Turn away and turn a head,
Just a hopeless dreamer she said,
Eyes of cloud and feet of lead,
Find a shore that needs you instead.

He used to be a lovely boy,
Lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.

Time on your hands,
World at your feet,
No adventure left incomplete.

(Scatting)

Find a place where you can hide
From the love that holds you inside,
Time's so unkind,
Like an old friend leaves you behind.

He used to be a lovely boy,
Lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.

Time on your hands...


7. LET IT SLIDE

The same, always the same
Bitter words are all that remain
Of the dream that had taken you in
But all her words were dust in the wind

It's time to draw the line
To draw the fire
Why'd you never know?
The time to let go
The time to move aside
To let it slide

Say, what's that you say?
Time to move on
And you're in the way
Let's get to the end
And not turn around
She built you up so she could knock you down

It's time to draw the line
To draw the fire
Why'd you never know?
The time to let go
It's time to move aside
To let it slide

Friend, there's nothing there
You're clinging on to air
You're reaching back
To something that
You never had

It's time to draw the line
To draw the fire
Why'd you never know?
The time to let go
The time to move aside
To let it slide
To let it slide
Why'd you never know?
It's time to let go
It's time to move aside
To let it slide


8. THE THEFT OF OCTO

(No lyrics available)


9. CALL ME WHAT YOU LIKE

There's no believing and no reason why
Well I'm superstitious and I can fly
I float through the ceiling
And into your eye
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me all the time

There's no believing and no real surprise
Well I am a ghost here, appearing in the night

To float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me all the time

I float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
But I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me-e?

Shoop da, la la da...


10. WOLF AT THE DOOR

Wake me, shake me from my sleepiness
Wide-eyed, every tale is taller than the one before
Inside out and upside down
Don't make a sound
The wolf's at the door
And all your streetfighting years
Won't help you anymore

Lead me, guide me home old scatterbrain
Blog it, every smile is wider than the one before

Inside out and upside down
Don't make a sound
The wolf's at the door
And all your streetfighting years
Won't help you anymore

Inside out and upside down
And don't make a sound
So I live and feel
Oh no, don't make a sound
The wolf's at the door
And all your streetfighting years
Won't help you anymore


11. TYDERIAN

(Instrumental)


12. ON A DAY LIKE TODAY

On a day like today
I looked at you and I
Saw something in the way
You stared into the sky
I saw you were sick
And tired of my wrong turns
If you only knew the way I feel
I'd really love to tell you

But I could never seem to say the things I needed to
On a day like today no other words would do

I saw you were sick
And tired of my wrong turns
If you only knew the way I feel
I'd really love to tell you

But I can never find the words to say and I don't know why
I can't find the words to say and I don't know why


13. WITH OR WITHOUT YOU

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait... without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you out
I can't live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tired
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win
And nothing else to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you


14. CLOSER NOW

I believe
You might stumble and come closer

I like to wake alone
To lie and turn to stone
Comfort me, come to me
I won't go on

I like to walk along
To keep my head screwed on
Well I'm the best, so well done me
I won't go on

Believing, believing
I believe
You might stumble and come closer now

If I stay then I'm alone
If I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
You just leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

I believe
You might stumble and come closer now

Make time to be
All this and more for me
Well you're the best so well done you
I won't go on

Believing, believing
I believe
You might turn from your love, wait around

If I go then I'm alone
If I stay then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
When you know that it's for real
So you leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

I believe
You might turn from your love wait around

If I stay here I'm alone
If I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
When you know that it's for real
You just leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

If I stay then I'm alone
If I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
So you leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

Woah...
I believe
You might stumble and come closer now
