I like to look at shadows sweating on the wall
I get excited when i hear footsteps in the hall
Outside your balcony i have a room with a view
And i’m watching youI dail your telephone each and every afternoon
I wait by your door till your’e asleep at night
And when your’e alone I kwon when you turn out the lightYou fumble for your keys
I’m six or seven steps behind you
I’m so close to you
Are you terrified of me?What do now about you
How did i find out?
You think I’m a fool or maybe some kind of lunatic
Say i’m wasting my time but I know what to do with it
Its as plain as black and whiteI’m gonna get close to you
Oh- Oh so close to you
I’m gone get close to you
Oh so closeIf you knew my infinite charm
There’d no reason to by so alarmed
Maybe I’m wrong maybe I’m right
Maybe I’m some kind of lunatic
You say I’m wasting all of my time
But i now what to do whit it
It is plain as black and whiteI’m gonna get close to you
Oh-Oh so close to you
I’m gone get close to you
I’m gone get soI’m gonna get close to you
Oh-Oh so close to you
I’m like a hungry Criminal
and your protection is minimal
So minimal
I’m gone near
I’m gone got close to you
I’m gone get close
I’m gone get close to you
Closer
I’m gone get close to you
So close -
There you were
Standing there
As your eyes reached out to me
Something warm in your eyes
Touched my heart right then and there
All the love I never knew
I found in you
Suddenly
My world stood still
My life was then fulfilled
As you gently touched my hand
I knew that we had laying a plan
For everlasting love
That I been forever dreaming of
At last
Ooh, at last
My forever came today (My forever came today)
When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life)
And made my lonely life
A paradise (A paradise)
It came today
Forever came todayAs we were standing there
You didn’t speak a single word
But your eyes
Your eyes said you wanted me
Your touch said you needed me
And my heart said tenderly
Darling
Ooh, my darling
Make me yours
Let your kiss touch my face
And tell me love has let me
To this place to your warm embrace
And our happiness
Thanks to you my search has ended
And I want the world to see
How gently love has shined on me
With everlasting love
That I been forever dreaming of
At last
Ooh, at last
My forever came today (My forever came today)
When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life)
And made my lonely life
A paradise (A paradise)
It came today
Forever came today
At last
Ooh, at last
My forever came today (My forever came today)
When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life)
And made my lonely life
A paradise (A paradise)
Oh, it came today
Forever came today
At last
Ooh, at last
My forever came today (My forever came today)
When you walked into my life -
We drove all day pushing hard to beat the snow
We’re on our way, a few more hours and we’ll be home
In the heat of the city, the snow is never settled
In the moonlight on the palm trees, the forest’s cold as hellOn my way…
On my way…Through the towns, all dressed up in stupid lights
Window down, I’ll cut my cheekbones on the ice
It’s the time of the season: the cold is unforgiving
But the lamp light on the snowflakes
Life is still worth livingFa la la la la
We’re Coming Home for Christmas on my way
Drive beneath the stars ’cause I would never miss this oh, on my waySilent night I’ll put the radio on loud
The rose turned white, there’s a blanket on the ground
Cut my feet on the dashboard, the bells started ringing
And you sleep on the sidedoor, the choir starts to singFa la la la la
The Holly and the Ivy on my way
Driving under stars, my baby is on the backseat oh, I’m on my way
Another half an hour and I’ll be back for Christmas on my way
We’re driving under stars ’cause I would never miss this oh, on my way -
“I would never have broken up with you,” I said earnestly. “I’m more miserable without you than I am with you.” As soon as that sentence came out I groaned, because I knew how bad it sounded.
But Declan laughed. “Vintage Simon Murray comment.”

I knew how it felt to be another one in need of someone to show the way
Until you saw a part of me that nobody else
Could see and my life hasn’t been the sameYou make me feel lucky as I can be
Before I couldn’t get a break,
Never had a chance to make
The impressions I want to
But now it falls right into place
When I get to see your face
Then there’s nothing that I can’t doYou make me feel lucky as I can be
No more dark days, only sun rays
No more hard ways with you todayYou make me feel…
You make me feel lucky as I can be

Tryin’ hard to recognise
Some pure motive inside of me
A creature that would horrify
Any child that I used to be
Oh, give no faith to show
Started to smile so I showed my teeth
No more than flesh and bone
Doin’ so much just to watch someone bleedBut I love the very blood of you
It keeps its heat in spite of you
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me alwaysTryin’ hard, I nearly find
Innocence in spite of me
Oh, creature that would terrify
Any child left inside of me
Oh, that’s a cold insight
Nothin’ above us and nothin’ below
Ahh, but you might be right
If there is no heaven and there is no soulI just love the very blood of you
It keeps its heat in spite of you
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me always
Always, always, always
Oh, I love the very blood of you
It keeps its heat in spite of you
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me always
Oh, I love the very blood of you
Leaks and squeeks you black and blue
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me always -
I’ve lived a lot of different lives
Been different people many times
I live my life in bitterness
And fill my heart with emptinessAnd now I see, I see it for the first time
There is no crime in being kind
Not everyone is out to screw you over
Maybe, oh just maybe they just wanna get to know yaNow the time is here
Baby, you don’t have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear
Is clear of fearDon’t wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathingGot different people inside my head
I wonder which one that they like best
I’m done with tryin’ to have it all
And endin’ up with not much at allAnd now the time is here
Baby you don’t have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear
Is clear of fear
Of fearDon’t wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathingAnd when the time comes along and the lights run out
I know where I will belong when they blow me outDon’t wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathingI wanna be completely weightless
I wanna touch the edge of greatness
Don’t wanna be completely faithless
Completely faithlessWhen the time comes around
When the lights will go out
When the time comes around
When the lights they go out -
He hated himself for wanting any of this. But not enough to stop. Never enough to stop.

Your features defy all metaphors
And I’m the king of those
Your hair is too pretty
To be compared to a city
So I’ll leave it out of all my proseAnd your eyes are unlike any ocean
That I have ever seen
Unlike any jewels
They break the writing rules
And I’m trying to keep this song cleanAnd not to mention
Despite pretension
You are infinitely interesting to me
And it’s so unexpected
My heart feels unprotected
I’m so thankful for that way you look at me, meEverything that you say is a poem
And I’m hooked on every word
Your mouth speaks no lies
Needs no alibis
And not one single word is slurredAnd I love that you talk about Dillon
And all the books you read
I know you so well
Didn’t notice any spell
But you seem to be taking the leadAnd not to mention
Despite pretension
You are infinitely interesting to me
And it’s so unexpected
My heart feels unprotected
I’m just thankful for that way you look at me
[x2] -
Look behind you
Avoid the shadows
Watch your back now
Make your breathing shallowKeep your room locked
And leave the blinds closed
I’m right there staring at your windowAnd all I need is you
And all I need is youI’m in the background
On the radio
I’m in your car
In your house
Waiting at your door
Under your footsteps
I’m everything you know
Just let me haunt
Let me haunt
Let me be your ghostYou had your chance love
You tried to stay strong
You tried to let go
Tell yourself you moved onBut then it comes back
That feeling in your bones
Like I’m right thereAnd all I need is you
And all I need is youI’m in the background
On the radio
I’m in your car
In your house
Waiting at your door
Under your footsteps
I’m everything you know
Just let me haunt
Let me haunt
Let me be your ghost
Let me be your ghost
Just let me be your ghostI’m in the background
On the radio
I’m in your car
In your house
Waiting at your door
Under your footsteps
I’m everything you know
Just let me haunt
Let me haunt
Let me be your ghost
