This Night 04:50
I've been waiting to uncover Every vacant memory of you In this still room I'd start over Waiting for you and everything we know Lost in silence through your whisper But I'm careful to never fall asleep Sleepless sunrise lasts forever Through these wires I'll never let you go One more reason that I’d fall for you But it’s all I need to make myself believe you This time, while we share this night But you’re all I need and someday I will find you This time
2.
I met her on a Sunday morning train Rolling from the river banks to the empty shore that laid In my mind As everybody gathered aimlessly Staring out the windows only to fear that they would see Their broken dreams As everyone departed from their seats Our shadows ran ahead of us to reveal the painful days We would feel I saw her crying while she looked at me Only cos she knew that I would remember everything I had seen Won’t you save me I would ask her, she would reply No, this is why you’re here We can’t leave now, it’s your time to die
3.
Without You 04:11
One night was all I wanted One night with you was all I wanted I’ll never be alone my love I’ll never be without you in my dreams I’ll always remember what you felt like I’ll never forget you that’s what she said Hold on cos I’ve been waiting Now that you’re gone I need you closer My heart will beat for you my love I’ll always be without you, but it’s alright I’ll always remember what you felt like I’ll never forget you that’s what she said I’ll always remember just how you loved me I’ll never forget you that’s what I said

In the meantime let us fall apart Empty reasons fill me up inside We never belonged here And now I know why We’ll never belong here And now I know why Distant voices keep me far from you Useless tension breaks you down inside We never evolved here And now I know why We’ll never evolve here And now I know why Now that you know what you’ve done And you know what you’ve done I don’t believe in what you said Nothing has changed it’s all the same I think we should leave and go our way Now that you know what you’ve done And you know what you’ve done Now that you know what you’ve done And you know what you’ve done I don’t believe in what you said Nothing has changed it’s all the same I think we should leave and go our way Now that you know what you’ve done And we’ll move on cos we’re done

Silhouette 03:37
I see you standing outside You’re staring up at the lonely night I’ll keep my distance inside I’ll make a move when I feel it’s right I’m scared that I don’t know how I see that you’re leaving now The moment’s passing me by Another night that I haven’t tried I’d almost rather I lie Convince myself that I’m out of time It’s you that I haven’t found I fear that it’s over now And you will never know What I’d do just to be with you And you will never know Everything that I’d do for you The longer I stay awake Another chance I should take A view from my window shade Something I wouldn’t change I finally made up my mind I’ll make it through to the other side My shadow walking in line Your silhouette leaving me behind
6.
I’d sacrifice myself to have you stay To keep you here to keep you well always And I only want for you to be yourself And when you feel down I just need you to hold on The days behind have left me scarred remains With all the strength I need to live each day With all of the anxious appointments we fall And when I depart you won’t fight this alone You will conquer and rise Leave this behind Move forward with your life You will survive I need more time You will conquer and rise Hold on
7.
Distance 04:42
You walked in my life unexpectedly But knowing that you would be leaving me I cannot replace how I used to be Tonight If only you left on another night But now that you’re gone I have all this time You’re all that I want in this desperate life Tonight Everything that it’s supposed to be Would drive me crazy But if it’s meant to be despite this distance we Can make it right for you and me Will we become just another trend Is this a dream coming to its end Help me believe while I wait again Tonight Everything that it’s supposed to be It drives me crazy But if it’s meant to be despite this distance we Can make it right for you and me For you and me
8.
I dreamt about you last night Laying under the stars I held you closer to my heart Before you said goodbye The moon was shining in your eyes The world was asleep... As you left you smiled at me Knowing it was goodbye I kissed your lips for the last time Hoping someday that I would know What it feels like to be with you again

Spin 02:34
(Instrumental)
10.
If Only 03:57
The sky opened up When it had enough But will it shine on me And as the wind blows Still nobody knows What lies ahead Is this the end Someday we’ll know We’ll have to move on If only you’ll stay When everything’s wrong Everything’s ok Someday
11.
Faded Signs 04:52
We said we’ll never change We’ll always be the same And live our lives this way I left it all behind To start a brand new life Instead of wasting time It’s been a long and lonely road For us to feel this way Don’t recognize me anymore Remember faded signs You walked alone and said We’ll never be the same But everything’s ok I haven’t since returned From many lessons learned I left, but you still hurt It’s been a long and lonely road For us to feel this way Don’t recognize me anymore How did we get so far From everything we used to know It made us fall apart When nothing seems to be the same Remember faded signs
12.
Letting Go 04:09
I never felt this way before So insecure I’ve never known With all the echoes in the world I’ll learn to fade away and let you go And all the things we used to be Were only dreams and only lies I’ll fill the void you left for me Cos now I know you had your reasons why We fell in love now you don’t need me I’ll leave today, make my way to the moonlight When everything beneath me falls The ocean waves will guide me home I’ll lie between these empty walls And find away to pass the time alone We fell in love now you don’t need me I’ll leave today, make my way to the moonlight All of these faces Staring back at me I’ll finally listen Oh I will, I will We fell in love now you don’t need me I’ll leave today, make my way to the moonlight We fell in love now you don’t need me I like the way you look tonight in the moonlight

I woke up today excited, but scared I knew that I came, I came unprepared To hear what you’d say right from the start You said that I came, I came here too late The distance between was too hard to take I knew I’d return and see you someday But as time went on so did your love You said that I came, I came here too late It’s only you I needed you more, you wanted us less I couldn’t hold on to this emptiness Was this the way it’s meant to be It came to an end before it began Help me believe it’s only you I needed you more, you wanted us less I couldn’t hold on to this emptiness Was this the way it’s meant to be It came to an end before it began I woke up today excited, but scared I knew that I came, I came unprepared To hear what you’d say right from the start You said that I came, I came here too late
