Memoirs

/
1.
Standing still in the cold and rain For a glimpse of you again I would stand here for a day and a night Even if it was in vain I would do so with excitement and no shame CHORUS1 We can be everything that glitters in the stars You are the name I want recorded in memoirs Standing together every time we get a chance Spending the days in a trance Never noticed how time flies Until I spent it with you Every moment has a hint of surprise And so much more to do An excitement that is clear in my eyes for you CHORUS2 We can be anything and no-one could compare The end of the world and I wouldn't even care As long as we're hand in hand whilst escaping out of there To any place, anywhere CHORUS 1 CHORUS 2
2.
There's pages and pages All words so sincere When I knocked on the door there was nobody there This is a love letter Like those long ago A secret admirer that you barely know CHORUS I shout from the rooftops I shout to the clouds I shout to whoever whenever allowed I sing with a beauty That tells how I feel And I sing with excitement now its all so real I'd never have gathered Because I'm so slow I found myself falling for someone I know And friendships can shatter If you take such a path You end up just ruining everything that you have CHORUS Its a guilty secret But it makes me smile And I hadn't laughed for such a long while This is a love letter Like those long ago A secret admirer that you barely know CHORUS

When you're wanting to tell someone something but they already know It could be trivial, it could be life changing or so so Did you look into some mystic water or use a crystal ball? It doesn't matter you already know I'm enthralled CHORUS We don't need to talk anymore We communicate by mind Be it humour, be it rumour, be it some kind of romance - one of a kind Be it childish, be a wild wish we dreamt up in our minds Be it flirty, even dirty, be it something only we would understand Be it clever, oh whatever I want it on demand When two minds have the same motivation I guess its fair to say They will probably duplicate at least once a day I found myself chuckling at something funny you muttered when we awoke You can sense the strong feelings such actions evoke CHORUS
4.
I'm hopeless at most everything My whole life is a fractured lie I want a chance to grasp afar Before I crumple up and die More painful than the written word Are the scars that sit upon your spine All fractured and a broken mess I tiptoed down a wavering line CHORUS But I made my bed I dreamt a fresh start And I let you in Into my heart I'm looking up into the clouds Decline to say it is my time Oh so much to look forward to I cough but I am feeling fine The sins of past have washed away But stains I have upon my shroud I hope you haven't noticed the angry mob The maddened crowd CHORUS

We Could Be 04:21
When there's nothing feeling wrong And no two days seem the same Singing songs from old Rom Coms Whilst aspiring still for fame As the sun begins to fade But the joy won't disappear I struck gold and never prayed Its a good start to the year Everything's rosy All that we do I cannot ever spend enough time with you CHORUS We can be shrouded arm in arm We could be running for a train We could enjoy every small moment again and again We could be sweating in the limelight Of a film no-one would view We could be anything we want too There's a movie script somewhere That I don't have time to write Anyway who'd really care If we hug and kiss tonight Out with the old thoughts In with the new I cannot ever spend enough time with you CHORUS But really all I want is you
7.
Swaying gently in my old rocking chair With my age lines and my still greying hair I can only hope that you are still there We would reminisce - all of our good times Naughty vignettes of all of our crimes Every one of which were all so sublime CHORUS To feel your lips To touch your face To lose the sprint but won the race Together in our special place that we desire To hold your hand To skip through time To always know that you are mine You are a light that always shines so bright with fire How I counted as the minutes went fast Guess that happens when you're having a blast Its far better than my more recent past Well I never really asked to grow old But I always did what I was told It excites me when your touch is so cold CHORUS
8.
As another waking day begins I reflect upon all my past sins Nothing really too bad or vast And secured safely in the past Forget all the hocus pocus I've set myself a positive focus CHORUS Come what may Together I want us to spend each day As if it is the last And what a way to spend our brief and valued time Every minute that we share entwined Makes me value how you're the perfect find And every second that we are apart Causes cracking in my fragile heart I stride with a confident swagger I'm sorry that that makes me a bragger CHORUS I realise I have been an eyesore You're the missing piece in my life's jigsaw CHORUS Two lights that shine
9.
I know its right I sense that warm loving feeling I pine at night Over and over I float to the ceiling CHORUS Teaspoon of happiness One cup of humour Stir it together to keep me just sane The proof of the pudding can withstand the rumour Served with Champagne It feels so right You feel so right up against me I think we might salute to the world and escape across the cold sea CHORUS
10.
Now you wouldn't think they'd have the time But such gossips appealing Lets take another sip of fizzy wine, my love Where there's dirt there is a blossoming flower And I need constant weeding And it erupts into a super power Enough CHORUS There's cameras and wagging tongues at every move we make So maybe that's in my mind and most of it is fake Are we in dream world or just barely half awake Somebody turned the lights on Nobody turned away Now were we seen or cast in shadow? Is there any real story? We are not some demented freak show at all Can I hold you whilst no-one watches? And in all of our glory All the stress it bought me out in blotches though small CHORUS This is nothing to be ashamed of I'm eternally happy And I truly cant get enough my love CHORUS
