All the things I've never said to you, That you mattered to me, That you saved me When I was drowning, so quickly in a poisonous sea. You tried to talk me through it all, I didn't wanna lean on you, Every single time I would turn around, Watch me walk away. About that night, my friends and I got drunk on wine, You and I kept looking in each other's eyes, why? I tried to prevent my heart from beating at the sound of your guitar, Couldn't help but come back for your strong arms, It was doomed right from the start. But I can't erase... That look you'd give me everytime I'd walk in, Used to kiss me, hug me, I would dive in, Would drown in the colour of your eyes, You were so cool, I was so blind. That time you appeared on the corner of the street, Looking down, your hands stuck in the pockets of your jeans, Your smile burnt me up, I was so messed up, I only tried to see it through. All the things I could never let out, You were the one I needed when I was breaking down, Out of sight, I was losing my fire. I tried my best to hide the pain away but I wanted you to hold me tight every week or two, Back then you could see through me clearly. 'When did we go wrong?' This thought kept coming back around like a shark circling around a sinking ship It'd never leave the back of my mind, Oh my heart still breaks a little when I hear your name. On the tube I used to look around to find your face in the crowd and I would think to myself, 'I can't forget... That look you'd give me everytime I'd walk in, Used to kiss me, hug me, I would dive in, Would drown in the colour of your eyes, You were so cool, I was so blind. That time you appeared on the corner of the street, Looking down, your hands stuck in the pockets of your jeans, Your smile burnt me up, I was so messed up, I only tried to see it through.' And that night you were running down the street, You were breathless, I got speechless, I let down my guard. 'This time,' I thought, 'it is bound to be better' But everytime you'd try to come closer, I'd still push you a little bit further away. I hope you can hear me, oh hear me out, I'm so sorry for the way things turned out, I hope you know I'll always remember... That look you'd give me everytime I'd walk in, Used to kiss me, hug me, I would dive in, Would drown in the colour of your eyes, You were so cool, I was so blind. That time you appeared on the corner of the street, Looking down, your hands stuck in the pockets of your jeans, Your smile burnt me up, I was so messed up, Oh can you see through me now?

Your Embrace 02:24
It's early in the morning, Pouring rain against the window-pane, Is it just a dream? Are you here with me? I'm looking for your face and I find your chest, You've put your arm around my neck and I feel so safe. I know you're still half-asleep but my heart is wide-awake. I know you're still half-asleep but my heart is wide-awake. My heart is wide-awake, My heart is wide-awake. I've opened my eyes, I don't want us to fade, Hold me a little tighter, Let me feel your embrace. Three words on your lips, All your love in one breath, We are lying still Still I can hear your heart race. I know we're both half-asleep but our hearts are wide-awake. I know we're both half-asleep but our hearts are wide-awake. Our hearts are wide-awake, Our hearts are wide-awake, Our hearts are wide-awake, Our hearts, they're wide, wide-awake.

Again 03:28
I've been here before, I can't open up again, It might hurt too much if my heart breaks again; I've been here before, I can't lose myself again, It hurts too much, there's so much I can take. I always deceive myself into trusting someone else, Let's repeat the same mistake 'cause there's no end to the game. Why do I do this again and again and again and again, again and again and again and again, and again? I've been here before, I can't open up again, It might hurt too much if my heart breaks again; I've been here before, I can't lose myself again, It hurts too much, there's so much I can take. I always convince myself that he'll see me for who I am, He won't play any games but real life is no fairy tale. So I try again and again and again and again, again and again and again and again, and again. I've been here before, I can't open up again, It might hurt too much if my heart breaks again; I've been here before, I can't lose myself again, It hurts too much, there's so much I can take - so much I can take. Every single time I seem to fall apart, Every single time I seem to fall apart, And I fall apart again, And I fall apart again. I've been here before, I can't lose myself again, It hurts too much, there's so much I can take.

One move, the pressure of your hand, The tears rolling down your face. You say, 'Darling, do you wanna run away? 'Cause I can't live this way.' You've been hiding all of your dreams underneath your suit and their greed. You need to unpause and soothe your soul. You can take my hand, live without a plan. Let's get lost in our love, let's get lost in this world It's a jungle out there but we are explorers We can discover territories, you can be free. 'Don't hold back, let it all out', You loosen your tie and reply, 'Have I really sold my soul for riches and gold? It's like I'm stuck in a maze with no way out, I used to be amazed by life but somehow I've lost sight of the man I was, I need to find him now. Would you take my hand, live without a plan?' Let's get lost in our love, let's get lost in this world, It's a jungle out there but we are explorers We can discover territories, you can be free Lost in my love, lost in this world. We all crave for more, Money, rooms then floors, What is it all for? What do we live for? We all crave for more, Money, rooms then floors, What is it all for? What do I live for? Let's get lost, I wanna get lost in your love, in this world.

We're standing on the edge but are we ready for a change? It's hard to decide, can we please make up our minds? We're looking straight ahead, their words in our heads; now might be the time to make things right. We're tied down by their beliefs, we're tied down but we can release the pressure if we take the leap, take the leap. We live in a mess 'til the moment we get that we can gain more by caring less. Then we take matters into our owns hands and the pieces fall right into place. We're tied down by our beliefs, we're tied down but we can release the pressure if we take the leap, take the leap. We're tied down by our beliefs, we're tied down but we can release the pressure if we take the leap, take the leap. Break through your walls and live your life, it's okay to be as you are. Break through your walls and live your life, it's okay to be as you are. We're tied down. Release the pressure. We're tied down by our beliefs, we're tied down but we can release the pressure if we take the leap, take the leap. We're tied down by our beliefs, we're tied down but we can release the pressure if we take the leap, take the leap. So take the leap, take the leap, take the leap, take the leap and breathe.
