Like Lovers Do (Live)

I often miss the signals
Straight over my head
I’d turned off those senses
In coming back to myself
Ohhhh I tried to shake it
On the top of a Spanish hill
But one thing I know
I’m certain of is
Friends don’t touch like lovers do
They sure don’t fall in love
You, you can have all of me
When I can all of you
When we met you and I agreed
Our connection undeniably
Real and the time we spent together
Deeper than chemistry
I’ve learnt that life is for living and
I wanted to jump on in
Cause one thing I know
I’m certain of is
Don’t try to tell me otherwise
I’m not, oh I’m not, no I’m not naive
It’s your loss as well as mine
I’m not, oh I’m not, no I’m not naive
I’m not, oh I’m not, no I’m not naive
Cause friends don’t touch each other’s souls like lovers do
They sure don’t fall in love
You, you don't get all of me
Without all of you
Without all of you

Never Let You Go (Live)
03:32

I don’t remember
The last time
The last time I was held
Before we were locked up
Indefinitely
I didn’t make it easy at all
When I get out
When I am free
I’m gonna throw off my worry
Find you and
Never let you go
Never, never, never, never, never (never let) never let you go
I remember
How, how it feels
How it felt to be in love
Cuarentena
Understandably
Has left a longing I can’t ignore
I’m gonna throw off these worries and
Never let you go
Throw it to the wind
Never let you go
When I get out
When I’m free
I’m gonna throw off my worry
Find you and
Never let you go (never let)
I’m gonna throw off my worry
Find you and
Never let you (never let)
I’m gonna throw off my worry
Find you and
Never let you go

I’m tired of being
Tired of being
On my own
Got me missing
Got me missing
Your touch
Try to be strong
How long, how long
Try to be strong
How long, how long
Thief in the night keep me disconnected
(Thief in the night)
You try to fight when I least expect it
(Thief in the night)
I’m watching the dawn
You know I’ve moved on
Daydreamin’ blue
I’d rather be on my own than lonely with you
Try to be strong
How long, how long
Try to be strong
How long, how long
Thief in the night keeps me disconnected
(Thief in the night)
You try to fight when I least expect it
(Thief in the night)
I’d rather be on my own than lonely with you
I’d rather be on my own than lonely with you
I’d rather be on my own than lonely with you
I’d rather be on my own than lonely with you

Midnight Moon (Live)
03:12

Midnight moon over the city
Winter skies seem never-ending
Breath in the night air
You brush against me
Your hand warm near mine
For you
I’d do
Just about anything
For you
I would have done
Just about anything
Dim lights flicker in a black room
These nights with you seem ever-lasting
I lower my voice to a whisper
You move closer to hear what I’m saying
For you
I’d do
Just about anything
For you
I would have done
Just about anything
Ooo, I would have done
Just about anything
For you
I would have done
Just about anything
Oooo, just about
Oooo, just about
Midnight Moon

I have walked
This road alone
For longer
Than I can fathom
I’ve been searching for more
I kick up the dust
With these well worn boots
My body aches
This pack a dead weight
I’ve been searching for more
My mind is free
From worry from stress
My legs they keep on moving
Despite their distress
I’ve been searching, searching for more, for more, for more (for more)
I’ve been searching for more
I wasn’t born
Shackled and bound
To live life and not feel alive
I’ll keep searching for more (for more)
I’ll keep on searching, searching, searching (for more)
I’ll keep searching for more

Portugal (Live)
03:40

Took a flight to Portugal
On valentines
As a love letter
To myself
To myself
Oooooo
At first light
Quiet towns and empty back roads
No other soul
Bar the eucalyptus trees
And the rumours of wild dogs
Twice this year I saw the wattle bloom
The first on the other side of the world
It wasn’t clear I’d make it home in truth
Sure, I was scared but I did it anyway
On a dirt road
There’s a car full of men
Watching me close
Just like the night back in Brisbane
When I was robbed
I’m not gonna let you hold me back (not gonna let you hold me back)
I’m not gonna let you hold me back (not gonna let you hold me back)
I’m not gonna let you hold me back
Twice this year I saw the wattle bloom
Once on the other side of the world
It wasn’t clear I’d make it home in truth
Sure, I was scared but I did it anyway
Twice this year I saw the wattle bloom
First on the other side of the world
It wasn’t clear I’d make it home
Sure, I was scared but I did it anyway
Took a flight to Portugal

Winter (Live)
03:43

Winter my fingers so cold
Playing guitar seems a chore
Wish I had a fire to sit by
Wish I had a fire to burn
They say
Water dances into snow
Not that I’d know, still
Wish I had a fire to sit by
Wish I had a blaze to burn
My dear this will pass
There’s no light without shade
No joy without pain
My dear this will pass
There’s no light without shade
No joy without pain
Summer, sweet summer, isn’t lonely at all
The sun warms the way a lover would
When I’ve got a beach to lay on
When I’ve got a beach to keep me warm
My dear this will pass
There’s no light without shade
No joy without pain
My dear this will pass
There’s no light without shade
No joy without pain

Too Far Away (Live)
03:15
|
|||
|
It’s been an age
Since I’ve seen you
I’d like to run away
And be free
I want to feel the wind kiss my face
From high on a mountain ridge
And be free
I’m going to take each day at a time
Cause I’m too far away from you
I’m going to take each day at a time
Cause I’m too far away
I close my eyes and retrace
My walking highs
To feel free
I’m going to take each day at a time
Cause I’m too far away from you
I’m going to take each day at a time
Cause I’m too far away from family
I’m going to take each day at a time
Cause I’m too far away from you

Into The Storm (Live)

I know I was unkind when I read your quote
You said “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone”
And I called “hypocrite” and shook my head
You’ve gone from the comfort of your car, to work and home again
You were locked down before lockdown
And I know it’s your choice
But does it feel like you’re living cause with me you weren’t prepared to take a risk at all
No matter how small
Ooo come on dance
Right on in, in
Into the middle
Into the eye of it all
You’re right on the edge
I know you won’t fall
You’ve been waiting so long
To come undone
You asked me once “do you think I’m spontaneous?”
I said “not really, spontaneity, to me doesn’t live in between the tiny gaps of your diary you see”
And I’m not sure what you were like before me
But I know I could have shown you
How to live life with a little freedom, how to take a risk
No matter how big, no matter how small
Ooo come on dance
Right on in, in
Into the middle
Into the eye of it all
You’re right on the edge
I know you won’t fall
You’ve been waiting so long
To come undone
You’ve been waiting so long (waiting, waiting)
To come undone (undone)
I know I was unkind but it’s no longer my place to mention

Gold (Live)
04:18
|

|
I catch gold flickers in the corner
Through the black of my eyelash
A reminder of the power I hold
I was born from the ashes
From the dust my body bold
I lost breath cursing to myself
Through the mist and over mountains
A reminder of the power I hold
I was born from the ashes
From the dust my body bold
I was born within these tracks
From my strength my body strong
I found fear lurking deep
Through the dark I stared it down
A reminder of the power I hold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body bold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body strong
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body bold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body strong
Ooooooooo
Ooooooooo
