Even in your silence it rings out
The tallest endless wall of screaming sound
I'm exploding
Even in your hiding it can't be helped
Brilliance spills out underneath your guarded door
And it's so warm
So when you're near me
It's like I'm swallowed by the sun
And in your eyes I am burning
Fireflies in the summer sky
A white flash like a thousand dreams alive
And if you try you might just catch a few
So why keep your world apart
A star-bursting blast about to start
Burning hard my nova love
So when you're near me
It's like I'm swallowed by the sun
And in your eyes I am burning
Fireflies in the summer sky
A white flash like a thousand dreams alive
And if you try you might just catch a few
So why keep your world apart
A star-bursting blast about to start
Burning hard my nova love
Let me into your world tonight
I wanna feel your soul ignite
Let me into your world tonight
I wanna feel your soul ignite
(I can feel you, I can feel you
I can feel your heart I can feel your soul)
I can feel you, I can feel you
I can feel your heart, I can feel your soul
(Love burning hard)
I can feel you, I can feel you
I feel your heart, I feel your soul tonight
(Love burning hard)
Oh and when you're near me
It's like I'm swallowed by the sun
And in your eyes I am burning
Fireflies in the summer sky
A white flash like a thousand dreams alive
And if you try you might just catch a few
So why keep your world apart
A star-bursting blast about to start
Burning hard my nova love
Burning hard my nova love
Burning hard my nova love

Your smile lights up the whole room
It's so wild and blinding like the sun
All warm and welcome like summer wind
And you share it with everyone
So why can't you smile in the mirror?
You come home tired and beaten down
But your eyes, they shine like a neon sign
Wide open for all of the world to see
Telling me it'll be all right
Then why can't you smile in the mirror?
You're such a generous soul
Your love is never ending
Your heart is out of control
(Whoa-oh-oh)
And it's a lot to behold
But please don't start pretending
This world needs who you are
(Whoa-oh-oh)
Your mind is working on overtime
Wondering at all that life can hold
Well I know it all goes by so fast
You wanna share it with everyone
Then why can't you smile in the mirror?
You're such a generous soul
Your love is never ending
Your heart is out of control
(Whoa-oh-oh)
And it's a lot to behold
But please don't start pretending
This world needs who you are
(Whoa-oh-oh)
Turn around and look in the mirror
The light you shine is shining back on you
It's time you find the time to love yourself
You're such a generous soul
Your love is never ending
Your heart is out of control
(Whoa-oh-oh)
And it's a lot to behold
But please don't start pretending
This world needs who you are
(Whoa-oh-oh)
You're such a generous soul
(Generous soul)
Your love is never ending
Your heart is out of control
(Whoa-oh-oh)
And it's a lot to behold
(Generous soul)
But please don't start pretending
This world needs who you are
(I need who you are)
You're such a generous soul
(Generous soul)
Your love is never ending
Your heart is out of control
(I need who you are)
And it's a lot to behold
(Generous soul)
But don't you pretending
This world needs who you are
I need who you are

Slow Dance Slow

Maybe it all ends
Right here tonight
And all that's left will be
Me and the starlight
Maybe I'll float away from here
Without you dear
Hold me anyway
Slow, dance slow with me
Heart to heartbeat
Slow, dance slow
One more time
Sing me a lullaby
In my ear now
The moon is black tonight
And my head is full
Make it all fade away
Like only you can do
Say it'll be okay
Slow, dance slow with me
Heart to heartbeat
Slow, dance slow
One more time
My hand in yours
Your cheek on mine
Time's restless sand can fall
Around us tonight
Slow, dance slow with me
Heart to heartbeat
Slow, dance slow
One more time
Slow, dance slow with me
Heart to heartbeat
Slow, dance slow
One more time
I dreamed that we were in a ballroom
Dressed up tie and gown
Tethered and winding, spinning and shining
Like angels floating down
We danced the night away
We danced the night away
We danced the night away
We danced the night away
We danced all time away
We danced all time away
We danced all time away
We danced all time away
Slow, dance slow
One more time
Slow, dance slow with me
Heart to heartbeat

A Serious Mistake

(Round and round and round and round
And round and round and round and round...)
It's not as easy
As you might think
To watch him go
To let him drift away
But I won't raise
My wonderhorn now
To call him back
From where he can't return
I was backwards in the rain
Looking for someone to save
When finally I heard their song
The sailor's bottle he lifted it high
Turn around you daughter, turn around
No longer will you roam
Come about you daughter, come about
Go set your course for home
Well I've got notions
Of poetry grand
Of beauty sad
And bittersweet
But I can't abide
That siren's call
I've learned these waters
They have not a shore
I was backwards in the rain
Looking for someone to save
When finally I heard their song
The sailor's bottle he lifted it high
Turn around you daughter, turn around
No longer will you roam
Come about you daughter, come about
Go set your course for home
If I could find his way
Without losing mine
Then maybe I could prove
What I'm worth
But I am worth
More than the compass spinning round and
Round and round and round and round
And round and round and round and round...
Turn around you daughter, turn around
No longer will you roam
Come about you daughter, come about
Go set your course for home
Turn around you daughter, turn around
No longer will you roam
Come about you daughter, come about
Go set your course for home
Go set your course for home

Leave Me My Mind

I woke up today
Feeling different, feeling alive
Never thought I'd say this
But I don't need you in my life
It's okay if you wanna go
Just don't take your time
And don't take what's mine
(Oh whoa-oh oh oh oh)
It's okay if you need to go
Just leave me my mind
Leave me my mind
I feel your heart's already gone from me
Don't tell me it's not
Oh-oh, don't tell me it's not
Your eyes have never lied to me
And they say your love's all dried up
It's okay if you wanna go
Just don't take your time
And don't take what's mine
(Oh whoa-oh oh oh oh)
It's okay if you need to go
Just leave me my mind
Leave me my mind
I woke up today
Feeling different, feeling alive
It's okay if you wanna go
Just don't take your time
And don't take what's mine
(Oh whoa-oh oh oh oh)
It's okay if you need to go
Just leave me my mind
Leave me my mind
It's okay if you wanna go
Just don't take your time
And don't take what's mine
(Oh whoa-oh oh oh oh)
It's okay if you need to go
Just leave me my mind
Leave me my mind
