Only When I Sleep
I Never Loved You Anyway
What Can I Do
Dreams



Only When I Sleep


You're only just a dream boat
Sailing in my head
You swim my secret oceans
Of coral blue and red
Your smell is incense burning
Your touch is silken yet
It reaches through my skin
Moving from within
And clutches at my breast

CHORUS:
But it's only when I sleep
See you in my dreams
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside down
But I only hear you breathe
Somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside down
But it's only when I sleep

And when I wake from slumber
Your shadow's disappeared
Your breath is just a sea mist
Surrounding my body
I'm working through the daytime
But when it's time to rest
I'm lying in my bed
Listening to my breath
Falling from the edge

(CHORUS)

But it's only when I sleep...

(Up to the sky)
(Where angles fly)
(I'll never die)
(Hawaiian high)

It's reaching through my skin
Moving from within
And clutches at my breast

(FIRST HALF CHORUS)

(In bed I lie)
(No need to cry)
(My sleeping cry)
(Hawaiian high)

(Up to the sky)
(Where angles fly)
(I'll never die)
(Hawaiian high)

I Never Loved You Anyway


You bored me with your stories
I can't believe that I endured you for as long as I did
I'm happy it's over, I'm only sorry
That I didn't make the move before you

And when you go I will remember
To send a thank you note to that girl
I see she's holding you so tender
Well I just wanna say

I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
I'm so glad you're moving away

Valentino I don't think so
You watching MTV while I lie dreaming in an MT bed
And come to think of it
I was misled
My flat my food my everything
And thoughts inside my head

Before you go I must remember
To have a quiet word with that girl
Does she know you're not a spender
Well I just have to say

I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
I'm so happy you're moving away

And when you go I will remember
I must remember to say...
I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
Never truly loved you anyway
I'm so happy you're moving away
Yeah I'm delighted you're moving away

What Can I Do


I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we have talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

There's only so much I can take
And I just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better
If I don't try and I don't hope

[Chorus]

No more waiting, no more aching
No more fighting, no more trying...

Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just going to let it fly...

[Chorus]

Love me...

Dreams


Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound, of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat.. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost, yeah what you had, and what you lost

Yeah, Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
And women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Well here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself, it's only me that wants to wrap around your
dreams
and have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness like a heartbeat.. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost, yeah what you had, yeah, and what you lost

Yeah, Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Yeah Women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
Yeah, Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You will know
You will know
(Fade Out)
