I Remember Us

I remember us; high above it all
We would talk of how we would rule the world
But you were growing up; I was growing, too
You had all your friends: was I losing you?
There's something I should say
About the feeling in the air that night
You're my brother and I love you
I remember us
I can see it clear, sat around the well
Underneath the stars; underneath the spell
We would do so much and Summer wouldn't end
You were always there, but I can't pretend
That words I've spoken haven't hurt you
As the years roll by
You're my brother and I love you
I remember us
Wish I could have told you then
How I loved to have you there
Well, I'll tell you now
Sun is coming up; things are gonna change
We can find the time; we can re-arrange
You only have to give me the word
And I'll be by your side
You're my brother and I love you
I remember us

It flatters a man
To be told he’s the one
I did things I shouldn’t have done
I fell down
I couldn’t get up
I did things I shouldn’t have done
I can’t explain why
I can’t explain how
I did things I shouldn’t have done
In sickness and health
Oh, the things you forget
I did things I shouldn’t have done
I can’t explain why
I can’t explain how
I did things I shouldn’t have done
I didn’t set out to hurt you
I didn’t set out with a plan
I just got caught up in somebody else’s world
Hard to believe
But it happened that way
I did things I shouldn’t have done
I can’t explain why
I can’t explain how
I did things I shouldn’t have done

Michael, you know it’s over
Michael, you know it’s true
For a long time you’ve been hiding the truth
Something wasn’t working
And your rainbow turned to grey
Only, this time, she left you out in the rain
Pick yourself up
Don’t put yourself down
You’ve been looking for love
Where there’s none to be found
You feel a whole lot better
When you open another door
You’re a winner;
And a loser no more
Pick yourself up
Don’t put yourself down
You’ve been looking for love
Where there’s none to be found
Michael, you know it’s over
Michael, you know it’s true
You’re a winner;
And a loser no more

The Midnight Bell

|
And in the bar where I was working
You came in from the cold and into my heart
But you weren’t there to seek your fortune
Only playing your games and I was a part
There’s such a thing as wrong and right
I put my trust in you tonight
The midnight bell
I hear it ringing
The midnight bell
Won't let me be
It is the sound of the penny falling
I hear your voice
My midnight bell
I'm looking up, I'm looking down
Past the penny arcade to the top of town
And I'm in love and it's like dreaming
Don't let me down again this time
There’s such a thing as wrong and right
I put my trust in you tonight
The midnight bell
I hear it ringing
The midnight bell
Won't let me be
It is the sound of the penny falling
I hear your voice
My midnight bell
I'm not in love
It's just not true

Broken Hearts
04:39
|

|
When I heard about your brother
Nothing I could say
You looked me in the eye
But I had to look away
The atmosphere
On that afternoon
Was like heavy air without the rain
But I guess it's true
Underneath that sky
Our broken hearts
Are just the same
I know it isn't easy
When people get too near
Some things that befall us
May never become clear
We're all together
You, the same as me
We think about each other
And the people we could be
The atmosphere
On that afternoon
Was like heavy air without the rain
But I guess it's true
Underneath that sky
Our broken hearts are just the same

In Winter

In winter it's darker
The nights are long
It's harder to find your way
Let's gather together
To find the light
There is light in this love that we share
I know what you said
About love and regret
But I'll meet you
Forever in winter
I want to be with you
Wherever you're going
There's nothing I'm hiding no more
I know what you said
About love and regret
But I'll meet you
Forever in winter
Life is what you make it
But everybody needs a little love
In this winter
It's colder this season
And you're not here
I'm hoping for warmer days
I know what you said
About love and regret
But I'll meet you
Forever in winter

I've been looking out on the cherry tree
And thinking far too much
Is this all we have
Are we just falling leaves
Eyes on clocks and screens
Living all our lives
With roots in future plans
Seasons turn around
But we're not seeing them
I wish that I could be
Floating and falling free
Just like we used to be
Free
I've been looking out on the cherry tree
October in the breeze
Leaves of tender red
Here is everything
I wish that I could be
Floating and falling free
Just like we used to be
Red leaves on the cherry tree
