A WORLD WITHOUT YOU
I wouldn't wanna live in a world without you
Don't know what I would say if someone said I had to
I feel your love in everything you do
And there would be no love in a world without you
I try to remember every word you say
They help me get through life, they guide the way
It's my duty to pass on the flame
To make sure everybody knows your name
I wouldn't wanna live in a world without you
Don't know what I would say if someone said I had to
I feel your love in everything you do
And there would be no love in a world without you
LITTLE ONE
Rest, little one
You've had a big day
Time to put you things away and rest, little one
When you are grown some day
I'll still think of you this way
Grow and learn but never change, sweetheart
Stay as perfect as you are
You'll go far, I know you will
As long as we can still hold you close
So rest, little one
When you are grown some day
I'll still think of you this way
My little one
FATAL HESITATION
It's been an age, so I could be wrong
Are we on the same page?
I've read the signs
But do I also need to read between the lines?
I don't know if you want me
So if you really want me, say
'Cause if you'd asked me to stay
I would be beside you today
You never asked me to stay
I didn't know, so now I'm miles away
This game of fatal hesitation
Making fools of all who dare to play
I really hoped when I'd found the one
I'd be done, but no
I'm really trying
But it's just as hard as it was the first time
I don't know how to do this
Tell me how to do this, please
CHORUS
I didn't want to
It's just the hand life dealt me
I don't understand
Please help me see how I ended up where I am now
What I wouldn't give for another go-around
CHORUS
IT'S RAINING UP THERE
We've been lucky
Not a drop of rain all day
The clouds above me
I watched them drift away
Have I passed on the curse?
I got it good, so someone's got it worse than me
But I don't feel the least bit guilty
'Cause over time we all get our share of rain
And our share of sunshine - that's life
On the day of my parade it may be grey or clear
For now it's good down here
But it's still raining up there
They're heading under cover
That much is plain to see
But we're not like the others
For us there is no need
But such luck, it cannot last
You may think the hurricane has passed, but beware
It's always calm in the eye of the storm, dear
CHORUS x2
THE WORLD THROUGH A MIRROR
Can anyone be blameless anymore?
'Cause they've changed what that word meant
From what it meant before
The silent are complicit
To be absent is a crime
Rarely does the world change in a day that way
Usually it's done one at a time
It starts in the mirror
Deciding what you want to see
The view becomes clearer
When you know who you want to be
It's up to you, you have to choose
Will you be the helping hand
Or the not-so innocent bystander?
The old ideas of 'normal' are gone
'Cause now it's clear they were harmful and wrong
But the times they are a-changing
And hopefully for good
In everyone the power to act has been within
But who can say they do all that they could?
CHORUS
