I found you in a crowd of faces
Watched you slip through the spaces
I didn't get your name
You got away
I can't explain why my heart is breaking
One memory aching
I want to hold you now
Somehow
Oh, I can't get you out of my mind
Oh, you've there a while
A stolen scene in a perfect movie
A chance to see what it could be
You walked into the frame
Where you remain
Oh, I can't get you out of my mind
Oh, you've been there a while
We walk through a world and we're never quite sure
Of how we ever begin
The street lights and noises the unending voices
Oh where do we fit in
Oh, I can't get you out of my mind
Oh, you've been there a while
Oh, I can't get you out of my mind
Oh, you've been there a while
By Don Chaffer and Matthew Perryman Jones
O' Virginia
You been trailin' off too fast
You laid your dress down
In that old Kentucky grass
You said your baby was the prince of Persia
All he did was worship you
Do you remember what your daddy told you
When he would hold you
CHORUS
And when everything was going hazy
Did you ever think that this is crazy now?
O' but even though you missed the warning
There's a mercy born on every morning
O' Virginia
You been on the road too long
You learned the grinding
Yeah but you forgot the song
In your memory it's the angels falling
And the men all calling you
And when you answer at the door, you're there
Ready to share
But O' Virginia, there's nothing left
CHORUS
In the war between the blame and pity
Your words were smooth, but your teeth were gritty, girl
Cause you wouldn't lay down your defenses,
And admit the way you killed your senses
When everything was going hazy
You did not believe that this is crazy now
And, Virginia, though you missed the warning
The angels wept and prayed for mourning
O' Virginia
That young sweet and tender girl

You're always bound to fall
there's nothing you can do
the weight of gravity begins
to pull you down again
so what are you to do now?
stuck between the hope and doubt
you get so close to clarity
makes you question everything
You're so far away
so far away from me
Is it starting to break
underneath my feet
You're so far away
Am I just out of reach?
We keep talking in circles
staring out with empty eyes
wanting to be known again
but so afraid of letting in
so do i leave it all to history?
will you ever answer me ?
do you still recognize my voice
or is it lost among the noise
You're so far away
so far away from me
Is it starting to break
underneath my feet
You're so far away
Am I just out of reach?
While the world unravels
we're kicking at shadows
and everyone around us
is making up chaos
oh, I cannot find you
I'm walking like I'm blinded
am I saying anything at all?
You're so far away
so far away from me
Is it starting to break
underneath my feet
Is it set in stone
could someone tell me please?
Am I all alone?
Am I just out of reach?

Look me in the eyes
Tell me you don't feel a thing
Look me in the eyes
Tell me you don't feel a thing
I'm laying out my heart
and giving you everything
If it all goes wrong
are you just gonna walk away
If it all goes wrong
are you just gonna walk away
Well, get it out now
and say what you need to say
CHORUS
I'm gonna love you
baby, come rain or shine
I'm gonna love you
baby, come rain or shine
No one can love you
love you as good as I
I made up my mind
I refuse to let you go
I made up my mind
I refuse to let you go
lay it all on the line
this time we can take it slow
CHORUS
Let's live it like we're not afraid
Like it's never gonna fade away
Don't treat it like another day
Let's live it like we're not afraid
CHORUS
By Matthew Perryman Jones (c) 2009
If there was a chance that we could be lovers
I'd write you a book of handwritten letters
And burn them all up to the end
Just to start over again
If there was a chance that we could be lovers
I'd learn how to dance, how to hold without touching
Oh, love, where have you been?
I'll wait for your lead to come in
CHORUS
So tell me the secret
Is there a way into your heart?
'Cause I want to believe it
Or will I be wishing until the last falling star?
If there was a chance that we could be lovers
I'd swim seven oceans and keep going further
I'd hold my breath until you slipped
Those words that belong on your lips
CHORUS
Say a lie
It could be anything
Just stay with me tonight
CHORUS
By Matthew Perryman Jones and Katie Herzig
Angel wings spread over water-worn wishes
Guarding the dreams and the things left unsaid
Here we are wandering, aimlessly roaming
Lovers who linger and never forget
And when it's done we will walk where the road meets the sun
Waiting for you by the Santa Maria
How long must I stay with these letters from you
I don't know whether we'll end up together
But I'll always know that our love is true
And when it's done we will walk where the road meets the sun
Don't Disappear
(Darlin' I want you)
Don't leave me here
(And when the day comes)
I'll meet you here
'Cause I know that wishes come true
I'm finding my way back to you
Angel wings spread over water-worn wishes
Guarding the dreams and the things left unsaid
And when it's done we will walk where the road meets the sun
And when it's done we will walk where the road meets the sun (x10)
