1, You are the answer
You're a brand new chapter
You're the moonlight in my velns
You're forever after
You are my anchor
You're the reason I refrain
And I can find my way back home again
Chorus, To hold you in my arms
All through the night
Until the dawn
To hold you in my arms
2, You are the meaning
That I believe in
You're the morning after rain
You are the healing
That keeps me breathing
You're the reason I remain
And I can find my way back home again
Chorus, To hold you in my arms
All through the night
Until the dawn
To hold you in my arms
To hold you in my arms
To hold you in my arms
To hold you in my arms
3,You are the answer
The brand new chapter
and the reason that i've changed

The Falling Kind

I met her on a Sunday night
There was darkness in the sky
Wild roses in her hair
There were stories in her eyes
She had wings on her feet
There was magic in her mind
When she spoke the storm it broke
Lightning filled the night...
She said...
Hey hey I'll never stop running
Because heaven, heaven is a coming
Oh oh we could lay beneath the stars tonight
But if you wanna fall in love with me babe...
I'm not the falling kind
She kept the sun upon her face
Her past was far behind
Could never stay in just one place
Said she couldn't waste her time
Once a passion had burned her heart
But a sadness scared her soul
Now she'll never let her feelings start
And the road has become her home...
She said...
Hey hey I'll never stop running
Because heaven, heaven is a coming
oh oh we could lay beneath the stars tonight
But if you wanna fall in love with me babe...
I'm not the falling kind
Sweet heart of jasmine perfume everywhere
Green apple blossom floating on the midnight air...
When the moon and mist had gone
And the dreaming turned to day
She took the route the river runs
And never changed her way
Where the Summer swallows fly above St Catherine's Hill
She'll sleep beneath the evening tree
When there's circles in the fields...
She said...
Hey hey I'll never stop running
Because heaven, heaven is a coming
oh oh we could lay beneath the stars tonight
She said...
Hey hey I'll never stop running
Because heaven, heaven is a coming
oh oh we could lay beneath the stars tonight
But if you wanna fall in love with me babe...
I'm not the falling kind

For Bones
04:23

I spent a long time waiting for the storm to cease
Spent a long time praying for release
Oh and I spent a long time taking all the blame
A long time living with too much pain
And gave blood for years
Tears 'til stone
and traded hearts for bones
We traded our hearts for bones
I spent too long hiding in the wilderness
Spent too long crying I confess
Oh and I spent too long shouting...for that I'm not proud
Spent too long dragging through the doubt...
And gave blood for years
And tears 'til stone
We traded hearts for bones
We traded our hearts for bones...
We gave blood for years
And tears 'til stone
We traded hearts for bones
We traded our hearts for bones
Spent too much grieving for too much time
Spent too much giving away what's mine
Oh and we spent too much trying to make some sense
And too much living in my head
We gave blood for years
And tears 'til stone
We traded hearts for bones
And gave blood for years
And tears 'til stone
We traded hearts for bones
We traded our hearts for bones

Etched in My Heart

I've got a tattoo under my skin
I've got a tattoo under my skin
It shows the World I'll remember
That I'll never forget her
I've got a tattoo under my skin
I've got a picture I hold in my hand
A picture I hold in my hand
It's just a little scrap of paper
That'll I'll always treasure
I've got a picture I hold in my hand
I hold in my hand
I've got a memory in my mind
A memory in my mind
It's like an old silent movie
That plays when I'm lonely
I've got a memory in my mind
These words are locked in my mouth
These words are locked in my mouth
And no key can release them
I sure cannot speak them
These words are locked in my mouth
They're locked in my mouth
Got a river behind my eyes
There's a river behind my eyes
And that dam I won't open
Because it won't stop flowing
Got a river behind my eyes
Got her name etched in my heart
Her name etched in my heart
And while I'm still breathing
I'll always believe in
Her name etched in my heart
