UNDER NORWEGIAN SKIES You were there, after all the pain And I swore that I wouldn’t do that again Was the first time I saw your daddy cry But one look at your face and I knew the reason why I...just...want you to know That it’s breakin my heart but I have to let you go When you close your eyes will you think of me sometimes When you’re across the sea and under Norwegian skies I turned around and saw that you had grown Living life and doing things on your own I’m so very proud of the woman you’ve become And can see by your face that you’ve fallen in love I...just...want you to know That it’s breakin my heart but I have to let you go When you close your eyes will you think of me sometimes When you’re across the sea and under Norwegian skies It feels like you’ve grown up too fast It’s hard to be so young and understand There’s a war going on but it’s all mine Cause I’m tryin’ to fight back the hands of time I...just...want you to know That it’s breakin my heart but I have to let you go When you close your eyes will you think of me sometimes When you’re across the sea and under Norwegian skies When you’re across the sea and under Norwegian skies

Looking out the window.....staring at the sky Blurry trees and houses of a town we’re going by I sit and wonder....will we talk again? And are you somewhere wondering the same? Cause when I look in the horizon, I see you standing there... With the careless cast of light, that’s running through your hair... If you ever heard this song, would you think of me at all? And if I ever fell apart, would you hold me in your arms? Would you hold me in your arms? On the streets of London...with strangers all around They say that the loneliest place is being in a crowd I walk and wonder....Will we meet again? And are you somewhere wondering the same? Cause when I look in the horizon, I see you standing there... With the careless cast of light, that’s running through your hair... If you ever heard this song, would you think of me at all? And if I ever fell apart, would you hold me in your arms? Would you hold me in your arms? And at the start we laughed a lot, and at the end we cried But they were still the best times of my life I’m sorry if you got me wrong, mistakes have come and gone, Maybe we could someday reconcile... Cause when I look in the horizon, I see you standing there... With the careless cast of light that’s runnin through your hair... If you ever heard this song, would you think of me at all? And I ever fell apart, would you hold me in your arms? And if I ever fell apart, would you hold me in your arms? And if I ever fell apart, would you hold me in your arms?

The Reason 02:42
You’re the rock.....in my roll You’re the one who dances in my soul You’re the beat...in my song In my heart is right where you belong You’re the reason why I remember You’re the reason why I believe Through it all, you’ve shown us that we were meant to be...... Cause I’ll need you, again and again, and I’ll want you, forever and ever, and You touch me, over and over, and I need you, want you, love me, touch me..... I’m your stress......I’m your strife You’re the one who’s got me now for life I’m locked up.....you’re my bail If I don’t watch, you’ll put me up for sale You’re the reason why I remember You’re the reason why I believe Through the years, you’ve shown me what love is meant to be...... Cause I’ll need you, again and again, and I’ll want you, forever and ever, and I’ll love you with all of my soul You touch me, over and over, and Cause I’ll need you, again and again and I want you, forever and ever and You touch me, over and over and I need you, want you, love me, touch me You’re the match, I’m the spark Together we are lighting up the dark You’re the one who keeps me warm You’re the one I fell for all along You’re the reason why I wrote this song.....

Same Love 03:42
You sit there staring with your disapproving eyes It’s probably no use asking and a waste of time But how can you live holding all that hate Just because I love someone the same? How can you say that it’s wrong? Can’t you accept this is just who I am? Its how I’ve felt all along And I thought you’d understand It’s the same love It’s the same love Walking down the road and we’re holding hands It’s a pretty pointless time for you to take a stand Cause I respect that you have your point of view But you have to try to respect mine too... How can you say that it’s wrong? Can’t you accept this is just how I am? Its how I’ve felt all along And I thought you’d understand It’s the same love It’s the same love Ooooo....oh it’s such a shame You can’t treat everyone the same And you’ve found someone to blame Ooooo....oh as far as I can tell You’re not happy in yourself And take it out on someone else.... How can you say that it’s wrong? Can’t you accept this is just how I am? Its how I’ve felt all along And I thought you’d understand It’s the same love It’s the same love It’s the same love...

Judas Kiss 04:10
Sometimes in life you can't remember who you are You want to make a change but don't know where to start Feeling down along the way you need a helping hand And then you..were there..& my head went spinning round & round How I wish I'd never had to look into your eyes Or handed you my heart so you could cut it with a knife How I wish I'd somehow found the strength to resist Cause all I felt was your Judas kiss Can't forget your Judas kiss You took my innocence and said you knew the way And from that moment I knew everything had changed Be wary of what you say, be careful who you trust Cause your best friend can hurt you the most How I wish I'd never had to look into your eyes Or fallen for your charming smile and powers of your mind How I wish I'd somehow found the strength to resist Cause all I felt was your Judas Kiss Can't forget your Judas Kiss How could you betray someone who loved you Sentence them to death without a care Who will drag your guilty lips out of the devil's bed And try to save your soul when I'm not there? How I wish I'd never had to look into your eyes Or handed you my trust so you could cut it with your lies How I wish I'd somehow found the strength to resist Cause all I felt was your Judas Kiss How I wish I'd never had to look into your eyes Or fallen for your charming smile and powers of your mind How I wish I'd somehow found the strength to resist Cause all I felt was your Judas Kiss Can't forget your Judas Kiss All I felt was your Judas Kiss Won't forget your Judas KissX

There’s a hunger in the shadows of your soul Once you taste it, obsession takes control So I let you inside, and you slipped me the key So I closed my eyes, and set it free I got high when you infected me Released my demons and insanity I got wild when you made love to me Inside the bedroom of my fantasy Of my fantasy..... There’s no conscience; no feelings of regret You can’t escape now, no beginning and no end Cause I locked you inside, and threw away the key I’m just using you like you did to me I got high when you infected me Released my demons and insanity I got wild when you made love to me Inside the bedroom of my fantasy Of my fantasy... Caught in a trance, the sting of your eyes Bodies entwined, it feels so alive You never believed, but how could it be wrong Then you reach for my heart...but it’s already gone I got high when you infected me Released my demons and insanity I got wild when you made love to me Inside the bedroom of my fantasy Of my fantasy...

The Haunting 04:39
Lying here in silence with the coming of the night Eyes are heavy and I’m losing this fight Once again you find me but I have to look away Don’t want your shadows in my way Your memory.....is all I see Just set me free...stop haunting me The streets are blurry, scenes in black and white I’m tired of running but you’re still not out of sight You’re reaching for me but I know it isn’t real Cause it only happens when I dream...... Your memory...is all I see Just set me free...stop haunting me Now I can’t seem to find the light Your tireless spirit wins the night But it won’t be long Cause it’s always darkest before the dawn..... Your memory...is all I see Please let me be...stop haunting me Your memory...is all I see Just set me free...stop haunting me

Mirror, mirror, on the wall Who’s the fairest of them all? Staring back with those wicked eyes Don’t want the truth, I need your lies... And the spell keeps turnin’ around and pullin’ me Down to a story that lies underground And the spell keeps twistin’ my mind and reachin’ Inside to a place never wanting ...to be found Mirror, mirror, tell me now Can the ending of this change somehow I’m the victim, can’t you see My heart is black with jealousy And the spell keeps turnin’ around and pullin’ me Down to a story that lies underground And the spell keeps twistin’ my mind and reachin’ Inside to a place never wanting ...to be found How do I justify my actions to the jury? The fact that I’m already guilty feeds the fury So I’ll just keep my wicked ways Cause we all know the villain is to blame... And the spell keeps turnin’ around and pullin’ me Down to the story that lies underground And the spell keeps twistin’ my mind and reachin’ Inside to a place never wanting ...to be found And down, and down, and down and down And down, and down, and down and down

We used to be together ... me and you It’s hard to understand what... it’s all come to I was used and confused but love is blind And it’s shown me, it was only, games of the mind Don’t look in my direction Or try to call my name Don’t look for my protection Things will never be the same Don’t look in my direction Or try to find the door You’ll just get my reflection Cause I don’t live there any more Sometimes our feelings change...and that’s just part of life Never expected you to blame me out of spite Your conclusions...were illusions...out of the blue Does it show? Do you know....the hell you put me through? Don’t look in my direction Or try to call my name Don’t look for my protection Things will never be the same Don’t look in my direction Or try to find the door You’ll just get my reflection Cause I don’t live there any more You did so much for me...oh you changed my life But we couldn’t carry on that...roller coaster ride There’s no more fight inside me...been too much war And we both lost control But you went too far... Don’t look in my direction Or try to call my name Don’t look for my protection Things will never be the same Don’t look in my direction Or try to find the door You’ll just get my reflection Cause I don’t live there any more ..... any more

The Chase 04:38
Caught behind the same old walls, (with) no end in sight Searching for adventure, with temptation and surprise Someone break me out of here, carry me from this reality... Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Falling out of grace, feeling out of place Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Got the key to return but I enjoy the chase Looking at the same old faces with empty eyes Ideas and revelations have all run dry Come and take me out of here, let me lose control and be free... Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Falling out of grace, feeling out of place Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Got the key to return but I enjoy the chase We all want something on the other side And how you make me feel, it’s all worthwhile Time has stopped now, leave it all behind So take me with you and cross that line Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Floating out in space, gone without a trace Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Got the key to return but I enjoy the chase Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Falling out of grace, feeling out of place Lost my peace of mind when you looked my way Had the key to return and I’ve enjoyed the chase.....

Proud 03:34
When I was just a little girl You dried my tears And as I grew, you sheltered me From the nightmares and my fears You showed me love, you made me strong What was right and what was wrong You were everything to me I hope you’d be proud of me to see who I’ve become Cause I was so very proud to have you as my mum But I’m cry-in...still cry-in…For you....for you Seasons changed and time went on Never stays the same Growing old, I sheltered you From the loneliness and the rain I took your hand, I held you tight Made you smile on stormy nights Like you used to do for me I hope you’d be proud of me to see who I’ve become Cause I was so very proud to have you as my mum But I’m cry-in...still cry-in..For you....for you I never knew that this would be so hard To try to stop the ache inside my heart But to end the sorrow, just give me tomorrow And I’ll find my way again I’ll find my way again… I hope you’d be proud of me to see who I’ve become Cause I was so very proud to have you as my mum But I’m cry-in...still cry-in For you....for you But I’m dy-in...dy-in For you...for you

Nothing was ever that serious but I needed you And don’t forget you needed me too I used to tell you everything cause I trusted you And I know you trusted me too But that changed….so I’ve changed And now we’re strangers living separate lives The children grow and life goes by The roads we’re on they lead to a different place The bitterness and all the pain The angry seas and stormy rains would leave somehow If you could only see me now Having fun was dear to us, I laughed at you And don’t forget you laughed at me too I used to tell you everything cause I needed you And don’t forget you needed me too But that changed…so I’ve changed Now we’re strangers living separate lives The children grow and life goes by The roads we’re on they lead to a different place The bitterness and all the pain The angry seas and stormy rains would leave somehow If you could only see me now I never understood the reason why you had to go I thought we could have somehow tried to work it out you know We don’t know each other anymore, it’s been a while But I think I’ll always miss you, and I hope that you’re alright We’re strangers living separate lives The children grow and life goes by The roads we’re on, they lead to a different place The bitterness and all the pain The angry seas and stormy rains would leave somehow If you could only see…. We’re strangers living separate lives Grudges stay and time goes by Letting go will lead to a better place The bitterness and all the pain The angry seas and stormy rains would leave somehow If you could see me now If you could only see me now

Run Away 04:07
Little girl, little girl, little girl inside It’s time, it’s time, time for you to decide Be brave now sweetheart, go pack your bags The scars will come with you, but don’t look back Run away, run away Run away, run away Leave his shadow and step into the light Keep on runnin’, run away Little girl, little girl, little girl inside Your body, is your own, he has no right Take your sister’s hand, and open the door You don’t need to do this any more…. Run away, run away Run away, run away Leave his shadow and step into the light Keep on runnin’, run away Take a breath, embrace the air Your childhood’s gone, it was never there Winds are fuelling the passion within Feel the freedom warming your skin Run away, run away Run away, run away Leave his shadow and step into the light Keep on runnin’, run away…..Keep on runnin’, run away…..

Sittin’ reflecting on the person I am now Been broken hearted but stronger now somehow I’ve changed what I could change but let go of the rest There’s no point in dwelling on the past..... The sun is shining, the skies are clear Time to relax now and have another beer Move in closer, it’s Sunday afternoon It’s a good day for a birthday on the 2nd day of June I’m not so brave with words but can say it in a song They wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t come along They say that all good things will come to those who wait But (I) blame it on a simple twist of fate The sun is shining, the skies are clear Time to relax now and have another beer Move in closer, it’s Sunday afternoon It’s a good day for a birthday on the 2nd day of June The sun is shining, the skies are clear Time to relax now and have another beer Move in closer, it’s Sunday afternoon It’s a good day for a birthday on the 2nd day of June Be careful what you wish for on the 2nd day of June...

I guess I never saw the writing on the wall And I held on too long, couldn’t face the fall Was only tryin’ to explain and understand it And put the pieces back again If I had the chance I’d go back to when we were the best of friends And with all the bitterness aside I’d say thank you, you were the one who changed my life But only if I had the chance I guess that I was naive and didn’t read the signs Was only reaching out, but you didn’t realise Now I'm trying to forget, cause I don't understand it And to fill the emptiness If I had the chance I’d go back to when we were the best of friends And with all the bitterness aside I’d say thank you, you were the one who changed my life But only if I had the chance I don’t know that there is nothing that I can change But a friendship should never have to end that way Was nothing more that I could do It just meant more to me than it ever did for you If I had the chance I’d go back to when we were the best of friends And with all the bitterness aside I’d say thank you, you were the one who changed my life Only if I had the chance If I had the chance I’d go back to when we were the best of friends And with all the bitterness aside I’d say thank you, you were the one who changed my life But only if I had the chance… Only if I had the chance
