Here we go again, shivers on my skin. You occupy my head. You creep into my bed. In all my fantasies you’re the only one I see. And I cannot help myself. I can’t think of nothing else, everything I’ve ever felt down inside. I’d pay any price, yes, it’s true, to be all alone with you, though I only follow through in my mind. So, I go there all the time. Now it always seems I see you in my dreams. It always ends the same. I’m calling out your name. You never seem to hear. From my hands you disappear. And I cannot help myself. I can’t think of nothing else, everything I’ve ever felt down inside. I’d pay any price, yes, it’s true, to be all alone with you, but I only follow through in my mind. So, I go there all the time. It seems so real, you’re never far. I close my eyes and there you are. You’ll always have a secret space inside my heart time won’t erase. I keep it to myself. You know I’ll never tell. Your secret’s always safe. I’ll take it to my grave. Inside I’ll make believe in a love that cannot be. And I cannot help myself. I can’t think of nothing else, everything I’ve ever felt down inside. I’d pay any price, yes, it’s true, to be all alone with you, but I only follow through in my mind. So, I go there all the time. I go there all the time.

Good Enough 03:00
Don’t mind. It’s Fine. Not even worth the time. Forsake. You just take. Feels like the worst mistake as I break. As I break. Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah. Will it ever be good enough? Oh Oh Oh Oh. Feels like I wanna just give it up Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. Will I ever be whole again? Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. If I can hold my pieces in. Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. Undone. You won. Some things I can’t outrun. Hurt still. It’s Unreal. Some things just never heal. Never will. They never will. Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah. Will it ever be good enough? Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. Feels like I wanna just give it up Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. Will I ever be whole again? Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. If I can hold my pieces in. Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. I check out of reality. You know I can never see the harsh light. Just sit back as insanity clouds over everything in my sight. It’s absolute that I own my own truth, but it doesn’t make it feel right. But I’ll never win that fight. I’m down. Cold ground. Taken in the final round. Last call. Free fall. Until I feel nothing at all. At all. Nothing at all ah ah ah ah ah. Will it ever be good enough? Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. Feels like I wanna just give it up Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. Will I ever be whole again? Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh. If I can hold my pieces in. Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh.

Walk On By 03:36
I get so lost in the way you smile. I forget myself for a little while. I lose my cool when you come my way. Got it bad for you is all I can say. I just wish you would stay. But you walk on by. I’m still trying to find the reasons why you don’t see me, though your eyes meet mine. Look right through me every time. I can’t speak of it. Do you know all the things inside that I just can’t show? I’m so enchanted, I can’t explain why the thought of you drives me all insane. My heart is in flames. But you walk on by. I’m still trying to find the reasons why you don’t see me, though your eyes meet mine. Look right through me every time. As you walk on by, I’ll be holding my head up high. You won’t see me cry. I‘ve got my pride. But my eyes don’t lie no matter how much I try. And I just can’t hide. I want to be by your side. By your side. Gonna lose my mind. Seems I never learn. I resign myself to forever burn. You keep on walking while I stand still. Wanna be your girl. Show you how I feel. Guess I never will. But you walk on by. I’m still trying to find the reasons why you don’t see me though your eyes meet mine. Look right through me. Yeah you walk on by. Look right through me every time. You look right through me every time.

Forevermore 05:26
Everything was changing, so I let you in. Why’d you leave me hanging? Was it just pretend? Weather must be fairer somewhere else, my friend. Will I hear from you again? Did I lose your favor? Wither from your grace? What I felt was so sure, gone without a trace. Though I’d still give anything, just to see your face. Now my heart’s an empty place. And this silence is deafening. Still, I pound at your door. And this might cost me everything, but you know I’ll pay it, like I did before. And I will forevermore. Tell me, are you running, far from what you know? Never saw this coming. Didn’t think you’d go. Don’t you miss my softness when you hold me close? And the way I loved you so. And this silence is deafening. Still, I pound at your door. And this might cost me everything. But you know I’ll pay it, like I did before. And I will forevermore. And it seems like anymore, all the things we had before, taken right before my eyes, blown away into the sky. As I stand and watch it leave. Standing there in disbelief. Feel you pass right through me. You pass right through me. Leave the lantern burning on the windowsill. If you’re not returning, I would leave it still. To drive away this darkness, where you left behind pieces of my shattered mind. And this silence is deafening. Still, I pound at your door. And this might cost me everything. But you know I’ll pay it, like I did before. Yeah, you know I’ll pay it, like I did before. And I will forevermore. And I will forevermore.

Wizardess 04:22
If you believe the enchantment of lost fairytales, then listen close as the story begins to unveil a mystery of a woman who came from the stars, somewhere beyond in the universe, light years afar. Summoning the rain and the wind from the spirits within, magic she sends at every command. She’s got that fire in her eyes on the lightening she rides, heavens collide inside her own hands. Heavens collide inside her own hands. Legend foretold she would rise on a mid-winter’s night. None came before with this sorcery, none with her sight. An ancient one coming forth from the long ages past, called into life by the words of the spells that were cast. Summoning the rain and the wind from the spirits within, magic she sends at every command. She’s got that fire in her eyes on the lightening she rides, heavens collide inside her own hands. Heavens collide inside her own hands. A wizardess, yes some would say, with evil charms on them to pray. They fear her dark and wicked ways unto this day. If you’re alone in the woods on a mid-winter’s night, best keep yourself to the shadows. Stay well out of sight. You never know when the wizardess might find you there, her fiery eyes fixed upon you. Take heed and beware. Summoning the rain and the wind from the spirits within, magic she sends at every command. She’s got that fire in her eyes on the lightening she rides, heavens collide inside her own hands. Heavens collide inside her own hands.

Invisible man, can you tell me where you’ve been? I still just don’t understand why you disappeared again. And I think you should know, that no matter where you go, I will still be missing you so. Now it always feels as though my heart might overflow. I’d like to say that it didn’t change me, but a part of me’s gone you can’t see. Gone like the things I believed were real so long ago. I built a cage all around the memory, but the glass shatters as I still need all of the pieces that you’d allow me to behold of you. I know it’s out of my hands, but could you miss me now and then? Seems like all along that you planned to leave me outside looking in. I know that it’s time that I learned as I watch the pages turn. Guess I always thought that I earned something from you in return, though I’m not your concern. I’d like to say that it didn’t change me, but a part of me’s gone you can’t see. Gone like the things I believed were real so long ago. I built a cage all around the memory, but the glass shatters as I still need all of the pieces that you’d allow me to behold of you. Show me the way. Can you point it out? Or should I go with the way the wind blows? Is there a chance that you’ll let me know the hidden things that you never showed? I’ve gone as far as my heart let me go. Invisible man, I’m still holding out my hands. Is this really how that it ends? Are you coming back again? I won’t call on you anymore. I won’t knock upon your door. I Guess I’ll try my best to ignore all those things I still adore about you, just like before. I’d like to say that it didn’t change me, but a part of me’s gone you can’t see. Gone like the things I believed were real so long ago. I built a cage all around the memory, but the glass shatters as I still need all of the pieces that you’d allow me to behold of you.

True 04:18
Blue eyes with all the colors of the sea. I dive through all the waves of your surface into the calmness of your deep. Into the calmness of your deep. 10,000 times although I’ve been here before, still I return to what I keep searching for. And every time I find that I love you more. What we have is true. Still falling like the snow upon the trees. In all of my seasons of winter you ever shelter me. You ever shelter me. 10,000 times although I’ve been here before, still I return to what I keep searching for. And every time I find that I love you more. What we have is true. You always smile as you take me along. You’re poetry, like a muse to a song. Always believe with you is where I belong, as we keep holdin’ on. You always smile as you take me along. You’re poetry, like a muse to a song. Always believe with you is where I belong, as we keep holdin’ on. So warm like the rays of the sunshine, that lights up the bluest sky. Through storms now and all of my lifetime, I find peace inside your eyes. I find peace inside your eyes. 10,000 times although I’ve been here before, still I return to what I keep searching for. And every time I find that I love you more. What we have is true.

Somewhere, maybe way too far, out there, I was falling and crashing through the stars. Laid bare as you broke my heart and the empty silence, it tore me apart. I’ll never get over you. That is something I’ll never, ever do. I’ll never get over you. Make believing someday you’ll love me too. There’s no moving on, it’s true, ‘til the rest of my days are through. I’ll never get over you. Words speak but they fail me now. In deep and I don’t know how to carve it out. No sleep in the early hours, thinking of you more than my mind should allow. I’ll never get over you. That is something I’ll never, ever do. I’ll never get over you. Make believing someday you’ll love me too. There’s no moving on, it’s true, ‘til the rest of my days are through. I’ll never get over you. I never gave you a reason to doubt. I always made it so easy to love me. I was always someone you could live without. Though I set you free, now I see, I won’t ever be. Way down where the heartaches grow. Still drown in the sorrow of never letting go. I’m bound to this love I hold and forever haunted. It’s all that I know. I’ll never get over you. That is something I’ll never, ever do. I’ll never get over you. Make believing someday you’ll love me too. There’s no moving on, it’s true, ‘til the rest of my days are through. I’ll never get over you.

Fairy Queen 05:09
Summer wind, river bend in the grove. Lady fair, beauty rare to behold. Flower crown in your long emerald hair. Gossamer wings rise you high in the air. Pirouette fairy queen. Sing and dance round the ring. Secret songs echoing in the night. Just a breath in between the otherworld and a dream. Hidden forest of green magic light. Shining so bright. Ancient fort, seelie court neath the ground. Whispered spells, through the veil, all around. Golden dust gives the sight to the mind. Opening realms never seen to the eye. Pirouette fairy queen. Sing and dance round the ring. Secret songs echoing in the night. Just a breath in between the otherworld and a dream. Hidden forest of green magic light. Shining so bright. You fly with the morning sunrise. In the hollows you hide ‘til the evening draws nigh. Nightfall sends the gathering call for the wee folk enthralled by the mystic firelight. Honey wine, mountain thyme, ash, and sage. Shiny things, offerings for the fae. Leave the gifts by the oak near the well, ‘ere I return to this place where you dwell. Pirouette fairy queen. Sing and dance round the ring. Secret songs echoing in the night. Just a breath in between the otherworld and a dream. Hidden forest of green magic light. Shining so bright. Shining so bright.

Well, I’ve already said I was over my head, and I cannot help myself. Captivated it’s true by the magic in you. I don’t need nobody else. And I can’t even breathe when I hear your heart beating like a melody. I always wanna feel that harmony. And all I wanna do is play it. All I wanna do is play. You can show me with your hands, your body. All the ways you know I understand, but I love it when I hear you say it. I love it when I hear you say it. Say you love me. Ooo eee eee. Make me dizzy inside like a carnival ride. I’m flying off the ground. Bright calliope songs as I’m floating along on this merry go around. And I can’t even breathe when I hear your heart beating like a melody. I always wanna feel that harmony. And all I wanna do is play it. All I wanna do is play. You can show me with your hands, your body. All the ways you know I understand, but I love it when I hear you say it. I love it when I hear you say it. Say you love me. Ooo eee eee. When you tell me I’m still the only one that you want for now, and always. And you know that now, and forever, no one else could love you this way. I wanna hear you say it. There’s no need to be shy. I’ve got nothin’ to hide. Love is beautiful and free. Keep on feedin’ the fire. You’re the one I desire. Baby give it all to me. And I can’t even breathe when I hear your heart beating like a melody. I always wanna feel that harmony. And all I wanna do is play it. All I wanna do is play. You can show me with your hands, your body. All the ways you know I understand. But I love it when I hear you say it. Love it when I hear you say it. Say you love me. Ooo eee eee. When you say you love me.

I’ve seen the way the moonlight fills your eyes in the dead of midnight. Mystic words we said whisper still, softly in my head. Even though the time is lost and gone, sensual enchantments linger on inside. No way out now and there’s nowhere to hide. It feels like I’m spellbound by some wicked sorcery. It seems I’m always going to be prisoner to my dark destiny. It’s no secret I’m spellbound captivated by your charm. So fantastical and warm in the way you deceive, with the magic you weave. Conjuring a faded memory, like a ghost that walks eternally. It’s never seen but I believe it. Phantom fingers brush against my skin. Silent apparitions leave a trace of forgotten places, and I know once again. That it feels like I’m spellbound by some wicked sorcery. Seems I’m always going to be prisoner to my dark destiny. It’s no secret I’m spellbound captivated by your charm. So fantastical and warm in the way you deceive, with the magic you weave. just like an invisible paramour, my lips still yearn to breathe your name. I’ll carry this torch now and forevermore. still burning bright, eternal flame. Still burning bright, eternal flame. If I should live a thousand other lives, in my soul, I’d still be mesmerized. Though I might try, I can’t deny it. Once upon a starlight fantasy in another distant century those spells you speak might bring you back here to me. It feels like I’m spellbound by some wicked sorcery. It seems I’m always going to be prisoner to my dark destiny. It’s no secret I’m spellbound captivated by your charm. So fantastical and warm in the way you deceive, with the magic you weave. The magic you weave. Still burning bright eternal flame.
