I WANNA HIDE
One kept away, another left behind
Can't stay in or out of line
Time was when a guy and a girl could give anything a try
Now we gotta begin and end with lies
I wanna hide
I stand aside and watch you drift away
Convince myself I don't need you anyway
Used to be that a guy and a girl could look each other in the eyes
What to do when no one wants to try
I wanna hide
Another day and i might've tried
To believe what you said
But another day will never come, I bet
Don't you know that your promises
Can put an end to us when
Your every movement makes you promise again
I wanna hide

LIFELINE
Feel alright but i'm throwing away my lifeline
Can't understand why I'm losing track of my lifeline
Gotta look back if I'm ever gonna choose the right time
Gotta keep track if I'm gonna keep hold of my lifeline
Lifeline
I don't mind you asking how it feels to be afraid
I don't know when you tell me how it feels to be too late
Gotta move fast and we gotta give in to the right time
Can't understand why you're making me sever my lifeline
Lifeline
Try to see all the world has left to offer us today
I can try only when there's nothing more to lose or say

INTO THE WIND
Little one keeps turning back
One of us keeps turning back
As one of us goes, one of us walks into the wind
I can feel it pushing back
Feel the storm it pushes back
And so I must go, so I must walk into the wind
I can show why it's so, why I go
Wait for all will come to you
Wind I keep from reaching you
though you must know I could be running with the wind
I can go, why so slow, why so slow
Hope you hear what I say to you
Keep the storm clouds away from you
As one of us goes, one of us walks into the wind

TAKE YOUR TIME
Come here, I'm in trouble, feel like I'm out of line
I've tried and I've fallen, wish I could have my time
Wish that I could take your time
Had a chance, it was wasted, now I'm left behind
One look and you knew it, knew you had to steal my time
Now I wanna take your time
I've been hit hard but I'm not beaten, there's no place left ot hide
If I've lost, you'll never know it and I'll never let you take my time
Now I'm gonna take your time
There's gotta be a way to hold you
Without your fingers touching me
I don't forget and I'll never let you run me down
But you'll always be close to me
Only if I take your time
Only if I take your time
Only if I take your time
Now I'm gonna take your time

(EAST) NOW I KNOW (WEST)
Ever wonder if you leave a trail and can they track you down
Always something to uncover that you hoped could not be found
Someone's gonna show you things you thought you left behind
That one makes you see things better left in the back of your mind
And now I know
Winds blow but they seem to come from in front of you
Ever try to turn away before they take their breath from you
Some say don't worry 'cause the winds don't come
Take cover now I'm telling you before they make you run
And now I know

JUST A GIRL
They keep telling me that she's just a girl
But I don't care what they say
'Cause if she's just a girl than why can't I think
Of her in another way
Too bad only one of us is in love
Too bad I'm the only one in love
I know where and when but never how
To tell her what she could be to me
So a passing smile or a shy hello
Is as together as we'll ever be
Too bad only one of us is in love
Too bad I'm the only one in love
My friends all tell me that I'm wrong
They say she's just a girl I'll forget before long
I hope I can forget about her
Before I let her into my soul
'Cause I know she's just another girl
That I'll never get to know
Too bad only one of us is in love
Too bad I'm the only one in love

WILL YOU BE THERE TOMORROW
Leaves beginning to fall, and I'm watching it all
Does it mean that you're changing too and should I be watching you
If the bells don't ring if the birds don't sing
Will you be there tomorrow
If there comes a time when the sun don't shine
Will you be there tomorrow
I guess it's kinda strange, but I don't want nothing to change
Here and now is forever to me and your eyes are all that I see
If the sun don't shine will you still be mine
Will you be there tomorrow
When it's cold as ice will you love me twice
As much as this tomorrow
Try to go back to another time
Try to remember what made you mine
Never again will it all come to you
Never again will it all seem as true as we've been
When the ground is white will you be as bright
Am I wishing for tomorrow
When the trees are bare will you still care
As much as this tomorrow
You always knew what I saw in you
Never acting like people do
Don't ever let them get inside
Don't ever let them know that I am hiding with you
When the winds all blow and the grass won't grow
Will you be there tomorrow
If the world should end can a heart still mend
Am I wishing for tomorrow...

HOME
Hey bud can you spare a ride or a dollar
I'm down on my luck and I wanna go home
Been left here to fend for myself and I'm hurting
Please help me a little, I gotta go home
Home, home to my Dad and my Mom
I'm sure they'd be happy to see me again
Home, home and I'll leave this behind me
Please help me a little, I gotta go home
I had me a friend, she was all that I wanted
i guess you could say the reverse wasn't true
We danced our last dance and I told her I loved her
And now that she's gone I got one thing to do
Home, home I just wanna go home
Somewhere where my heart won't be broken again
Home, home and I'll stay there forever
Please help me a little, I got to go home
When two people meet, it can be so misleading
It's easy to think it'll last a long time
Be careful and never relax for a moment
Or you'll have a story that sounds just like mine
Home, home I just wanna go home
There's nothing I care about here anymore
Home, home and I'll stay there forever
Please help me a little, I gotta go home

I'LL BE WAITING
Times like this I wonder how I let you go
Wish I could believe that it's OK
Hope it's not too late to tell you things I should've said
Before we went our seperate ways
You got your reasons but I can't imagine why
The games you play were made to fool
If that's the way you had to play I can't object
But you might've told me there were rules
And if you should be gone for a short while
I will be waiting here for you
And if you should be gone for a long time
I'll still be waiting here for you
Don't know a thing about you
I don't want to live without you
I want to think you're coming back
So tired of writing letters
I just want to make it better
I just want to think you're coming back
And if you should be gone for a short while
I will be waiting here for you
And if you should be gone for a long time
I'll still be waiting here for you
Wonder how it'd be if you and I had never met
Would've been much easier for me
Can't be much safer than to be where I am now
I hope someday you'll come to see
And if you should be gone for a short while
I will be waiting here for you
And if you should be gone for a long time
I'll still be waiting here for you
And if you should be gone forever, I will see you someday...

ANYMORE
You move around but you never leave a trace
I move around without getting anyplace
I gotta wonder if it's worth it anymore
You must've known I was coming after you
There wasn't anything else that I could do
Now I wonder if it's worth it anymore
If I'm a waste of your time, just let me know
You gotta let me know why before I go
You gotta show me it won't happen
Anymore
I'm thinking straight but there are circles all around
I'd get inside but I know they'd bring me down
I'm making sure that they won't find me anymore
If you want me to try, just let me know
Got a right to know why before I go
Gotta show me it won't happen
Anymore

PLEASE DON'T TELL ANYONE
Hard to remember times I spent with you
Funny what you memories allow
I wish I could spend my life just holding you
Doesn't seem so possible right now
Please don't tell anyone you know
Please don't tell anyone I know
Please don't tell anyone that I want only you
I'm staying in touch as long as there's a chance
That you'll wanna be with me someday
But if it's as over as you say it is
I gotta hope someone will come my way
Please don't tell anyone you know
Please don't tell anyone I know
Please don't tell anyone I'm still in love with you
People always say there's someone just for you
And I think that's true
But now I'm so afraid that what was right for me
Wasn't meant to be
Just don't tell anyone you know
Please don't tell anyone I know
Please don't tell anyone that I want only you
Everyone thinks that I gave up on you
I let them believe that story's real
If I'm gonna find another one like you
No one can know the way I feel
So please don't tell anyone you know
Please don't tell anyone I know
Please don't tell anyone I'm still in love with you
