Wash my pain away Half a woman, half a shadow Daylight is breaking again I hide in the dark, I'm watching the rain You're out of touch and you're out of reach What can I say, I never wanted it this way Love sleeps all alone The cold telephone, I know the heart Yes, I know the kind, the kisses of fire turning to grey I never wanted it this way I always wanted you to stay Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Oh love always change with the trees, the spring and the leaves The waves on the sea Wilder than light the wind in your eyes led me astray I never wanted it this way I always wanted you to stay Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman, half a shadow Wash my pain away Oh, I need you Yes, I need you Oh, give me a reason to believe Oh, wash my pain, washing away Oh, half a woman (half a woman) Half a shadow Wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman (half a shadow) Half a shadow Oh, wash my pain away, oh - oh Cause I/m half a woman (half a woman) Half a shadow Oh, wash my pain away Cause I'm half a woman (half a shadow) Half a shadow From album "Look Sharp!"

It's easy to forget that our days are numbered It's easy for a slip to turn into a stumble I didn't even feel when I took my eyes off you I fell into my fear, and took a lie for a truth Now I'm wondering around Wondering without a clue Can you remind me who I am When I act like someone else And can you help me understand Why these cards were dealt Can you shatter my mirror To see outside myself And I hope to see it clearer The place from where I fell I'm waiting for a sign Waiting for direction I'm ready to build a wall Behind every step I've taken So I can't turn back around And doubt my destination Can you remind me who I am When I act like someone else And can you help me understand Why these cards were dealt Can you shatter my mirror To see outside myself And I hope to see it clearer The place from where I fell Can you remind me who I am When I act like someone else And can you help me understand Why these cards were dealt Can you shatter my mirror To see outside myself And I hope to see it clearer The place from where I fell

Two a.m., wide awake Staring at the walls My head's a broken record My worries a waterfall Trying hard to breathe At a slow and steady pace But I'm stuck in the rhythm Of my heart on the pillow case Just talk to me, doesn't matter what you say Your voice makes the madness start to fade away I'm shaking from the noise And I can't fight it So talk to me, baby You're my peace and quiet Somewhere on the way It was branded in my mind Boy, better make it happen Or you'll get left behind You tell me it's a lie But I keep holding on It's slipping through my fingers It's going, going, gone Just talk to me, doesn't matter what you say Your voice makes the madness start to fade away I'm shaking from the noise And I can't fight it So talk to me, baby Be my peace and quiet Just talk to me, baby You're my peace and quiet Just talk to me, baby You're my peace and quiet Just talk to me, baby You're my peace and quiet

Slow it down. Hold your horse back with the rest. Stay in the line. Your time is coming, but not just yet. I'm not asking you to wait forever. I'm asking to wait. Yeah you and I yeah we both know better. We're over these Desert Days. Someday we're gonna find the things that we have been looking for. Someday we're gonna find the things that we have been looking for. Looking for. You turn me on. You turn me on my heels again. Lets get lost. Far away from who we could've been. I'm not asking you to wait forever. I'm asking to wait. Yeah you and I yeah we both know better. We're over the Desert Days. Someday we're gonna find the things that we have been looking for. Someday we're gonna find the things that we have been looking for. Looking for. Looking for. HEY! Finally I. Losing these Desert Days. Finally I. Losing these Desert Days. Someday we're gonna find the things that we have been looking for. Someday we're gonna find the things that we have been looking for.

It feels so right to love you like this There's so much I want to say But the minutes are moving oh so fast And the days are slipping away Time is our only enemy So how do we fight what we can't see I don't know but I'm trying Let's meet tonight in our dreams Baby, why don't you lie down Time is our only enemy And when I hold you Everything slows down When I know you Inside and out I want to show you There's no such thing as time So take a deep breath tonight I want to breathe you in I finally know how to fight It takes two hearts to win And time is our only enemy And when I hold you Everything slows down When I know you Inside and out I want to show you There's no such thing as time It feels so right to love you like this There's so much I want to say And when I hold you Everything slows down When I know you Inside and out I want to show you There's no such thing as When I hold you Everything slows down When I know you Inside and out I want to show you There's no such thing as time

When sorrows seem to find you day after day You leave a dream behind you every step you take Well sometimes there is not an answer for the heartache we feel. Sometimes we have to shatter, before we can heal. When there are no words And everything hurts This moment is in the making So keep walking that line Another step and you'll find. This life is for the taking, So take it now. Been a long and lonesome winter, with the curtains drawn. The distraction of our struggle drowns out the cause. But the sun shines warmer, when you are chilled to the bone. The welcome is so much sweeter when the prodigal comes home. When there are no words And everything hurts This moment is in the making So keep walking that line Another step and you'll find. This life is for the taking, So take it now. Take it now. Take, take, take it honey. Soon we are going to look back to see what remains When trouble is behind us and everything has changed.

I see you waiting, but I'm not ready To take that first step towards home So please be patient, God knows I'm trying But these good intentions are not enough You've pulled back your veil, laid it all on the line But I've turned my back and covered my eyes Please, please, please, please cripple me So I cannot keep running away Away from you I'm walking on a wire, but you're holding it steady You're taking me higher, but I'm getting heavy Just give me some time, I am almost a man Without you by my side, I don't know who I am Please, please, please, please cripple me So I cannot keep running away Away from you
