I Fall Down 03:00
If I go out, I fall down  If I comment, I fall down  And if I'm sleepless, I fall down  It happens every time you're round  It happens every time you're round    I fall down  I fall down  I fall down    And if I go out, I fall down  If I comment, I fall down  And if I'm restless, I fall down  It happens every time you're round  It happens every time you're round    I fall down  I fall down

Time and time again  I think I have it figured out and then  The road will take a turn around the bend  And leave me where I started    Something in the past  Keeps telling me that this would never last  And though it seems that still the die are cast  And left us broken-hearted    I'll watch rivers run dry  Stars fall out of the sky  Still, I'll never know why    Time and time again  I think I have it figured out but then  The road will take a turn around the bend   And leave me where I started    Something, out of my hands  Things I don't understand  Still, there's nothing that I can do    I'll watch rivers run dry  Stars fall out of the sky  Still, I'll never know why    Time and time again  I think I have it figured out but then  The road will take a turn around the bend   And leave me where I started

Way to Go 04:06
If I fall from this earth  Would you catch me  Yes I'm ready   Yes I'm ready    If I stall in my search  Would you find me  Yes I'm ready   Yes I'm ready    Come on back you're holding back something  Hiding in the street til your love comes around oh-woah  You left without a sound  Feet never touched the ground  Hey babe, way to go  Way to go baby  Ooh ooh    If I call out your name  Would you hear me  Yes I'm ready   Yes I'm ready    Come on back you're holding back something  Hiding in the street when your love comes around oh-woah  Don't put up a fight  Gonna make it all right  Hey babe, way to go    Way to go  Way to go baby    If I call out your name  Would you hear me  Yes I'm ready   Yes I'm ready    Hiding in the street when your love comes around  Don't put up a fight  Gonna make it all right  Hey babe, way to go    Come on back you're holding back something  Hiding in the street when your love comes around  Don't put up a fight  Gonna make it all right  Hey babe, way to go    Way to go baby

You want your money  It's so important  I think it's very clear  What is the question  I know the answer  I see it written here    Peace of mind  Is all we're looking for  Peace of mind  Is waiting at your door    I get the picture   I got the message  I think it's very clear  What is the question  I know the answer  I see it written here    Peace of mind  Is all we're looking for  Peace of mind  Is waiting at your door

Aerial 04:04
Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down  Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down    I've never known a time  So much is on the line  There's still a lot that we can do    I hear a distant bell  The call of Aerial  She's calling out for me and you    Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down  Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down    I've never known a time  So much is on the line  There's still a lot that we can do    I hear a distant bell  The call of Aerial  She's calling out for me and you    Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down  Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down    I've never known a time  So much is on the line  There's still a lot that we can do    I hear a distant bell  The call of Aerial  She's calling out for me and you    Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down  Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down    I've never known a time  So much was on the line  There's still a lot that we can do    I hear a distant bell  The call of Aerial  She's calling out for me and you    Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down  Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down    I've never known a time  So much was on the line  There's still a lot that we can do    I hear a distant bell  The call of Aerial  She's calling out for me and you    Don't let them close you down  There's no need to close you down

Superscope 01:31
All our tribulations  They're our biggest crime  Superscope don't cut me off this time  This time    Try to think of nothing  Hardest thing I know  Try to think of Christmas without snow  Oh no    Plain and simple garden  Let me rake your sand  Do you think the others understand  I think they can

Tears 04:57
What can I do  What can say  Every time you just look away  Hidden in the moment  Open your eyes  Working so hard just to compromise    Waking up the love inside  Trying not to realize    Live in slow motion  All through my life  Talk in my mind 'til the middle of the night    Living a moment   What can I say  Try to explain and you're lookin' away    Waiting on the morning tide   Making all the reasons why     Tears come raining down  (I can see the) tears come raining down    Once in a lifetime  Making it right  Talking from noon 'til the middle of the night    Making our love on the telephone  Waiting around 'til it rings again    Waiting on the morning sun woah-oh  Waiting 'til it's all undone  Tears come raining down  (I can see the) tears come racing down    Try remembering the times   The truth  (I can see the)    Tears come raining down  Tears come raining down  Tears come raining down  Tears come raining down    Tears come Down

I don't know anymore  Seems like we're spinning out of control  And the feeling inside it's not how it used to be  I can see in your eyes, something is fading, drifting so far away  If you'd add it all up, it's bringing me to me to my knees  What about me?    Well, you keep on bringing me tickets to the past  You keep on telling me how it's gonna last  You don't know  There's no time  There's no time  There's no time like the future  There's just no time    Now it's so long ago  We came together  Memories of photographs  A moment in time  The picture's so hard to see  There were times in those days our hearts were reeling  Taking us far away  But the picture is now, faded with the memory  What about me?    Well, you keep on bringing me tickets to the past  You keep on telling me how it's gonna last  You don't know  There's no time  There's no time  There's no time like the future    A moment in time  A moment in time  There's just no time  A moment in time  A moment in time    Well, you keep on bringing me tickets to the past  You keep on telling me how it's gonna last  You don't know  There's no time  There's no time  There's no time like the future  There's just no time    A moment in time  A moment in time  Just no time  A moment in time  A moment in time  Just no time
