A disarming smile
Can take you by surprise
She has a knack of picking perfect victims
She’s got the honeyed words
Knows how to keep them wanting more
A glass in hand, a plan to find the perfect man
And so it goes again
She’ll find another fine specimen
And take all that he’s got
It’s never enough
Before too long she’s alone
Now it’s Friday night
Her favourite hunting time
A wave flows, conversation stalls, when she walks through the door
She’s all eyes and legs
A vision dressed in red
All night, they’ll come and try
But what she’s looking for money can’t buy
And so it goes again
She’ll find another fine specimen
And take all that he’s got
It’s never enough
Before too long she’s
Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone
Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone
Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone,
Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone, Alone
And so it goes again
She’ll find another fine specimen
And take all that he’s got
It’s never enough
And before too long, she’s
Learning to be happy on her own

Autumn Nights
04:02

Leaves are turning gold
Autumn nights, perfect time to drown in wine
Bed is cold, the ache is old
Old friend why do you plague me?
We’ve danced these steps before
You try your old games
I’d rather be alone
And you ask me to save you, brave you
You ask me to lose myself
You follow me into sleep
Am I awake or am I dreaming?
A warm body wrapped around mine
Could make me lose my head
I’m not ready to forget yet
You ask me to save you, brave you
You ask me to lose myself
Loneliness
Threatens to dissolve my resolve
I can’t forget
You forced me to tear open my soul
Loneliness
Threatens to dissolve my resolve
My heart’s still a mess
And that takes some time to repair
For three months I cried but today my eyes are dry
And I’m starting to think maybe I’m gonna be alright
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt, it’s that nothing stays the same
If you need to be saved, it’s only you who can do the saving
Loneliness
Threatens to dissolve my resolve
I can’t forget
You forced me to tear open my soul
Loneliness
Threatens to dissolve my resolve
My heart’s still a mess
And that takes some time
That takes some time
That takes some time

Too Much To Ask
03:49

Fate, what have you got in store for me today?
Too late, yes I can see for some time it was too late.
Too long, we cycled round and round in a twisted game.
Shame, yes I’m ashamed that I let myself be treated that way.
Is it too much to ask
To be loved?
Denial, we can talk ourselves into anything.
Deserving so much more and more than their prepared to give.
Generosity, reciprocity, taking pleasure in giving pleasure.
Free, together but not one,
I think that’s where we went wrong.
Is it too much to ask
To be loved?
Is it too much to ask
To be loved?
Is it too much to ask
To be loved?
Is it too much to ask
To be loved?

A Little Break From Love
04:26

I don’t know if we’re meant to be or
If we just get lonely
It felt so great at the time
Listened to my heart, not my mind
I’m not sure if I’m better for it
Though I’m broken now
Can’t help but cry all the time
I think I’ll take a little break from love for now
Ooh to love, be loved, to love, be loved
A little break from
Ooh to love, be loved, to love, be loved
A little break from
Trying to work out who I am now
Who I am without you
I remember I was strong once
That’s what I’m working to
We made so many stories
Can’t forget even though I sort of want to
I just keep on plodding along
Hoping some time I’ll look up
And have made it through
Sometimes I miss you
Ooh to love, be loved, to love, be loved
A little break from
Ooh to love, be loved, to love, be loved
A little break from
And at some point there might be someone else
With a lot of love to give, maybe they’ll want kids
We might just get along, and get a second chance
at doing happiness
at doing happiness
Ooh to love, be loved, to love, be loved
A little break from
Ooh to love, be loved, to love, be loved
A little break from
