ARMCHAIR TRAVELLING
Doesn’t matter what side I’m on when you’re gone
No need to argue or make my point when you’re gone
There’ll be no more tears or crying late into the night
When you’re gone
All the stories and all the books
All the places and all the looks never seemed so sad
Now that you’re gone
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I’m making my way back to you
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I need to show you that I’m true and we’re not through
Turned all my sins into shame
Like a medal I wear all my pain
I played the fool and I did it well
After a while you couldn’t even tell
And I‘m not looking to feel better now that you’re gone
I’m going back to where it all started
I’m going back to where it all began
This time I’ll write a different ending
I’ve got a new plan
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I’m making my way back to you
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I need to show you that I’m true and we’re not through
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I’m making my way back to you
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I need to show you that I’m true and we’re not through
No, we're not through
We're not through

LOST ON ME
It’s 5 AM and I’m leaving
I won’t wake you to say good-bye
We both know that it’s over
It’s much too early, much too early to cry
I watch you quietly sleeping
Afraid you’ll open your eyes
There’s no sadness when you’re dreaming
No tears, and no good-byes
Thought I’d write you a love song
Try to say what’s on my mind
I’m having a hard time finding words
And understanding all my lines
And all my words are lost on me
All my words are lost on me
Early love made us hopeful
Starry-eyed and naive
We both thought we could do it
It didn’t work out, didn’t work out the way we planned
Thought I’d write you a love song
Try to say what’s on my mind
I’m having a hard time finding words
And understanding all my lines
And all my words are lost on me
All my words are lost on me

LITTLE BIRD
Little bird
Little bird
Flying so high
Little bird
Little bird
Fell from the sky
Two broken wings and nowhere to call home
Little bird
Little bird
So all alone
Find you some shelter at the edge of a lake
Two little birds
Your burdens they take
How could you know they had broken wings, too?
Little bird
Little bird
What can you do?
Soaring so high
Up in the sky
No need to look down
No need to ask why
Soaring so high
Fell from the sky
Two broken wings and nowhere to call home
Soaring so high
Up in the sky
No need to look down
No need to ask why
Soaring so high
Fell from the sky
Two broken wings and nowhere to call home
Two broken wings and nowhere to call home

SOMETHING WE’VE NEVER KNOWN
Every night we lie awake and tell ourselves a lie
And say the words we can’t get back
Every time we try again, we never realize
Just no way to change the past
I keep looking for a reason
Anything before I go
You keep telling me there’s something to believe in
Something we’ve never known
You ask me one more time for one more time again
Still we make the same mistakes
Now one more time is finally coming to an end
And I don’t have the time it takes
I keep looking for a reason
Anything before I go
You keep telling me there’s something to believe in
Something we’ve never known
I keep looking for a reason
Anything before I go
You keep telling me there’s something to believe in
Something we’ve never known

Lonely Soldier

LONELY SOLDIER
I wish I was a maiden living in a dream
I wish I was a captain so they’d all listen to me
But I’m just a lonely soldier finding my way home
I’m just a weary traveller all alone
I wish I was a husband with a loving family
I wish I was a wise man so I’d know how to be free
But I’m just a lonely soldier, finding my way home
I’m just a weary traveller all alone
Told myself a story, it goes something like this
You don’t need to be rich to know what life is
You can be a lonely soldier finding your way home
You can be a weary traveller all alone
Told my mother I was leaving saw tears in her eyes
Go ahead my darling sonny, go ahead and live your life
You can be a lonely soldier finding your way home
You can be a weary traveller, travelling all alone
Wherever you may roam, there will always be a home
My sonny, there will always be a home

COLD DECEMBER DAY
Downtown through the empty streets on a cold December day
If I find myself I’m sure to lose my way
Trust in me I’ll cheat you blind
Search for me I’ll only hide
Forgive me once I’ll cross you twice
Truth lies in my eyes
Sometimes I fall
It’s true
And I’m still waiting here for you
Stop inside a small run down café
Conversations never seem to change
Let me up I’ll let you down
Can’t begin the final round
Playing you my last request
Don’t break down but I must confess
Sometimes I fall
It’s true
And I’m still waiting here for you
When I remember all I want to say
I’ll find the words to write to you one day
I’m so sure I’m insecure
The past is here forevermore
Shadows dancing in the mirror
Fade away and reappear
Sometimes I fall
It’s true
And I’m still waiting here for you
I’m still waiting here for you

WE’RE NOT THROUGH
Doesn’t matter what side I’m on when you’re gone
No need to argue or make my point when you’re gone
There’ll be no more tears or crying late into the night
When you’re gone
All the stories and all the books
All the places and all the looks never seemed so sad
Now that you’re gone
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I’m making my way back to you
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I need to show you that I’m true and we’re not through
Turned all my sins into shame
Like a medal I wear all my pain
I played the fool and I did it well
After a while you couldn’t even tell
And I‘m not looking to feel better now that you’re gone
I’m going back to where it all started
I’m going back to where it all began
This time I’ll write a different ending
I’ve got a new plan
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I’m making my way back to you
From armchair travelling to dreams unravelling
I need to show you that I’m true and we’re not through
