‘Precious Things’ Lyrics

When all the star gazes bloom
And throw their stars around the room
I was waiting for the day
For you to love me

When all the elements conspire
With shiny things that catch the eye
I was waiting for the day
For you to love me

Precious precious thing
You are the thought that makes me sing
Wanna leave all my possessions
It’s a rare and precious precious thing

When all the elements conspire
With shiny things that catch the eye
I was waiting for the day
For you to love me

Precious precious thing
You are the thought that makes me sing
Wanna leave all my possessions
It’s a rare and precious precious thing

And I know all I need
Is to get on the phone
Is to get on the phone
And call you
Call you

As clear as rain on a street
It shines like bright coloured stone
These things no one can own
They are for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you

‘Bursting Through’ Lyrics

I’m counting stars
Lying under
Watching you through my walls
All the lights have gone out
I know you’re listening now
You’ve been spinning around
Turning slowly
Orbiting round my house
It’s a feeling I guess
I know you’re listening now
Warm me today
Warm me today
Filter in my lonely room
Warm me today
Warm me today
Look outside the sun it’s
Bursting through
Bursting through oh it’s
Filling up this room
Now my fingers are cold
But I have touched you
You’re all I need to know
Don’t fade from me now
I know you’re listening somehow
All you can give
All you can give
Twisting bright
It’s more than light it’s
All you can give
All you can give
Look outside the sun it’s
Bursting through
Bursting through
Oh it’s filling up this room
Warm me today
Warm me today
Look outside the sun it’s
Bursting through
Bursting through
Oh it’s filling up this room

‘Beautiful Collision’ Lyrics

What a beautiful collision
Things that go bump in the night
With such beautiful precision
Fate could create you and I

Do you know what it means
To abandon your dreams?
To leave with the storms rolling by
How the clouds on this day
Come to take you away
Til you’re gone gone far away from me

Beautiful beautiful night
What a beautifully dangerous ride
What a beautiful day we could hardly complain about
What’s going on in the sky

What a beautiful collision
Things that go bump in the night
With such beautiful precision
Fate could create you and I

Do you know what it means
To abandon your dreams?
To leave with the storms rolling by
How the clouds on this day
Come to take you away
Til you’re gone gone far away from me

Beautiful beautiful night
What a beautifully dangerous ride
What a beautiful day we could hardly complain about
What’s going on in the sky

Move with the strangers
That pass through your days
If someone by chance
Should call out your name
When you’re lost in the places you don’t care to stay
A blinding romance to blow you away

‘And No More Shall We Part’ Lyrics

Say After Me

‘She Left On A Monday’ Lyrics

She left on a Monday
She’s a siren down the road
In your herringbone overcoat
That you don’t expect to get back

And it’s an ordinary sky
Today’s like any other day
When all of the aeroplanes
Write her name in the clouds

And nothing’s wrong
But it’s already Sunday
And you know just how Sunday
Was the day that she would come around?

Go to her foolish man
What’s the use of having pride if you don’t have her?
She’ll endure all she can
But you could make this easier on her

It’s all like sinking
You’re trying to stay afloat
Like a wind blown paper boat
Over uncharted sea

There’s no question why
You’re driving to kill some time
Racing the power lines
Back into town

Go to her foolish man
What’s the use of having pride if you don’t have her?
She’ll endure all she can
But you could make this easier on her

Go to her foolish man
What’s the use of having pride if you don’t have her?
She’ll endure all she can
But you could make this easier on her
Make this easier on her
Make this easier on her
Make this easier on her

‘Something Good’ Lyrics

Just wanna know ya
Just wanna talk to ya
I wanna hear about your day
I’d never leave ya
Never be mean to ya
I’d always let you get your way

Something good will come our way
And maybe this good thing’s gonna happen today

If I were honest I ‘d tell you everything
But it keeps coming out as lies
It’s not a promise
In case you’re wondering
It’s not some blessing in disguise

But something good will come our way
And maybe this good thing’s gonna happen today
Something good will come our way
And maybe this good things gonna happen today

I know romance is not in fashion
And my heart is on the line
If you would be so kind
To help me kill some time

Then something good just might come crashing
From the stars that light the sky
If you would be so kind
To help me kill some time

Just wanna know ya
Just wanna talk to ya
I wanna hear about your day
I’d never leave ya
Never be mean to ya
I’d always let you get your way

Something good will come our way
And maybe this good thing’s gonna happen today
Something good will come our way
And maybe this good things gonna happen today

Something good will come our way
Something good will come our way
Something good will come our way
Something good will come our way
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Something good will come our way
