I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
You’ll go your way, I’ll go mine
Cos I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time
Are we strangers now?
I don’t recognize this house
I can hear your voice
but don’t recognize the sound
We were in the clouds
Now we’re falling to the ground
Are we strangers now?
Tell me, are we strangers now?
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
You’ll go your way, I’ll go mine
Cos I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time
What have we become?
Tell me what replaces love?
I don’t see it in your eyes
I don’t feel it in your touch
All we did was try
Tell me did I try too much?
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
You’ll go your way, I’ll go mine
Cos I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time, ooh
I don’t wanna waste my time
You’ll go your way, I’ll go mine
Cos I don’t wanna waste my time
I don’t wanna waste my time

Letting Go
03:20

Can’t ask a tree not to grow
Can’t tell the summer not to go
If there’s one thing that I know
Can’t get blood from a stone
People they change
We’re not meant to stay the same
Ooh are we letting go
Ooh I can’t carry what I can’t hold
Can’t ask the wind not to blow
Can’t tell the summer not to snow
If there’s one thing that I know
Can’t get warm from the cold
And out hearts break
But that’s just how they’re made
Ooh are we letting go
Ooh I can’t carry this no more
You know that I’d stay
If there’s love left here to save
Tell me are we are we letting
Honey tell me are we letting go
Ooh are we letting go
Ooh I can’t carry what I can’t hold
Ooh are we letting go
Ooh I can’t carry this no more

Alone

Never fought so hard for a losing battle
All this blood, sweat and tears and these broken bones
Never fought so hard when I didn’t have to
Through the flood and the war and this broken home
Are we living to forgive or are we giving up?
Is it better, is it better, is it better…
Than being alone…
Being alone
Being alone
Being alone
Never lost so much on a memory
All this love, all this life, I’ve been losing grip
I don’t wanna be, I don’t wanna be enemies
But staying here, laying here will be the end of me
Now I’m choking on the notion that love is enough
Are we better, are we better, are we better off?
CHORUS
Being alone….
Being alone
Being alone
Being alone
When loving you means losing me
No matter what I do, I’ll be
Alone
I’ll be alone
Bridge:
Are we losing, are we losing, are we losing us
Are we better, are we better, are we better off
Being alone….
Being alone
Being alone
Being alone
When loving you means losing me
No matter what I do, I’ll be
Alone
I’ll be alone

Somebody Else
02:53

Are you happier, in his arms, in the television light?
Does he speak to you?....... Say everything right?
Does he know you, like I know you, like the right side of the bed,
When you come home late……, from your friends.
I’ve been wondering through your garden,
Did I give you enough to grow?
I’ve been walking through this empty house,
Did I give you enough to go?
CHORUS:
So let me hold you,
Hold you like you’re the old you.
‘Cuz you’ve been holding on to me
Like somebody else.
So when it falls through,
Am I there? Am I holding you?
Or am I holding a place…
For somebody else?
Are you laughing, are you crying? Is it hard to catch your breath?
Does he get that same smile…., from when we met?
I’ve been humming down these empty halls,
Sung the writing on the wall.
Did we know our song was ending?
When we let go of it all.
CHORUS:
So let me hold you,
Hold you like you’re the old you.
‘Cuz you’ve been holding on to me
Like somebody else.
So when it falls through,
Am I there? Am I holding you?
Or am I holding a place…
For somebody else?
I’ve been living somebody, I’ve been living somebody, I’ve been living somebody else’s life…
Ohhhh - I’ve been living somebody, I’ve been living somebody, I’ve been living somebody else’s life…

Here and Now

One million roads
Could of led us here
and I’m sooo tired
of giving innnn t’ fear
Can’t shake that empty feeling I get
wondering if what I feel is regret
One million times
I coulda set things straight
But I didn’t try, didn’t know what to say
I miss the times, just a child, in the grass, not a care, wish it coulda lasted
Why does my mind skip like a stone
And I can’t let go,
I’m everywhere but here and now
Why am I - falling ahead, like the past never left,
I’m anywhere but here and now
One million lives
And we’re livin here
I know you tried
While I disappeared
Can’t shake this aching feeling I get
My mind wanders to where we met
To this place in time, left behind, frozen in the dark and I can’t
Recognize you and I Mourning all the pieces
I miss the taste, the suuuun onya face, not a care, wish it coulda lasted
Why does my mind skip like a stone
And I can’t let go,
I’m everywhere but here and now
Why am I - falling ahead, like the past never left,
I’m anywhere but here and now
Why does my mind skip like a stone
And I can’t let go,
I’m everywhere but here and now
Why am I - falling ahead, like the past never left,
I’m anywhere but here and now

The Giver

I’m not giving up
I’ve just given all I can
I’ve given in to things I can’t control
We’re not giving up
We’ve just given all we had
We’ve given everything and that’s enough
Yeah that’s enough
I wouldn’t give it up
You were up on stage
I wouldn’t give it up
The moment that you sang
I wouldn’t give it up
Even just a memory
Of all the things you’ve given me
I wouldn’t give it up
I wouldn’t give it up
We’re just giving in
But it doesn’t have to take
From all the things we gave
I wouldn’t give it up
We were on the sea
I wouldn’t give it up
You were laying next to me
I wouldn’t give it up
If it’s just a memory
Of all the things you’ve given me
I wouldn’t give it up
You asked me to write you a love song
I could not, ‘til you were gone
And it’s enough
We’re just giving up
All the things we couldn’t be
We’re just giving in
Because we’re at the end of things
We’re just giving up
Holding to these memories
Everything you’ve given me
We’re just giving in
I wouldn’t give it up
I wouldn’t give it up
I wouldn’t give it up
I wouldn’t give it up
