Make Me Come Alive

0 voices

You help me and I help you
we can both breathe this at the same time
there is nothing waiting for us
nothing that needs our attention this moment

Press this special button and then wait for it
because I'm not awake unless you do
and I don't function unless you do

Make me come alive with those sounds that still surprise me
Make me inhale through your presence so near me
Make me aware of this moment

Because I don't unless you do
Because I can't unless you do

You touch me and I touch you
we can both be this way just for a little while
and if tomorrow wonders about us
be the one who answers for me

In Every Tree

0 voices


I ran so fast that I didn't notice
and I came and tried to explain that I was just too eager to satisfy myself
you heard, but did not understand
you thought I was just lying to get away with the whole deal.

I jumped, one two and three times
'till you asked me to stop because I was hitting my knees against the floor
I cried and tried to defend my point of view
just looking for a way to show you my perspective and my plan

I hid within myself and locked my whole self for years
and gave you the key to come and help me if I needed to
but I would never let you, no matter how much you tried

I chose this, a long time ago and there is no way I can get rid of it
Even when you walk right next to me, and hold my hand everytime
I still choose to put my head in every tree,
looking for what I've missed in all the wrong places.

Lyrics by Nelly Furtado

It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds or say woe is me instead
And there's an aching inside my head
It's telling me I'm better off alone
But after midnight morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some

They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl you know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down 
till' you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems

I looked above the other day
Cuz I think I'm good and ready for a change
I live my life by the moon
If it's high play it low, if it's harvest go slow and if it's full, then go
But after midnight morning will come
And the day will see if you're gonna get some

I'm searching for things that I just cannot see
Why don't you don't you don't you come and be with me
I pretend to be cool with me, want to believe
That I can do it on my own without my heart on my sleeve
I'm running, I'm running, catch up with me life
Where is the love that I'm looking to find
It's all in me, can't you see, why can't you, why can't you see it's all in me

Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need
Follow me down, follow me down down down, 
I do not need I do not need nobody
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need
