Apples

Lyrics by Alize

 

All around the field, it was barely light outside

I saw a bird take flight - with him I reached a new height

 

Then I closed my eyes and I wasn't myself 

I was someone who hadn't seen what I'd seen

Still trying to catch up with my dreams

 

But I feel OK - I don't wish I could go back

I just cock my head and laugh, just cock my head and laugh

and throw rose pedals in my path

 

And I give daisies to the strangers that I meet

and I wonder if they wonder about me

The rain won't chase this day. Since I've learned how to play in it

I'll kick the puddles dry even if it means some mudd in my eye

 

Apples hanging from a tree; take a bite and you'll be free; but there's nothing left for me.

 

Just soak it in. Too many thoughts begin

I thought I knew it all but then I hit the wall

 

But in another time and in another place,

all your dreams would only be mistakes

Don't trade in all you've found -

up and down and walking backwards you won't find the answer

It's right in front of your eyes

So open up and go inside 

 

I'm falling down the rabbit hole

I never knew this was here before, but maybe I wasn't really looking

Looking look in the right place, the wrong head space, hard to trace

where it was that I lost it all

 

Apples shining in your eyes, every moment a surprise

every moment...

 

 

Smile

Lyrics by Alize

 

All of the children love to smile, they just want to play for a while

three little words can make you nervous - bet you never knew they were worthless

 

I'll throw a glass; you'll throw a glare; "I'll break your heart," "You wouldn't dare"

 

There was crying, there was lying all over

there was gnashing, all that madness makes weird sense somehow

 

We like it that way, but they will pay. 

We like it that way...for now.

 

 

Paint Me

Lyrics by Edward and Alize

 

I've been sitting here all day thinking of all the ways I'm gonna paint you

all the colors and the shapes, and I've been thinking of all the places I'll paint you

 

Paint me - paint me a picture

Paint me - paint me a portrait

Paint me today, paint me away, paint me tomorrow

 

I've been following you around this town wishing you'd look my way

I've got a bit selection of brushes, and many colors so come out and play

 

 

Late

Lyrics by Alize

 

Don't take your smile away, it's all I have here

don't take our clock away, it keeps good times near

 

I wanna take it back to before you wen't away

you'll cut me some slack and we'll have more nice things to say

if we really try then our lives will be OK

but now that we're here it's finally clear that it's too late

 

Don't leave your coat around, it just reminds me

that hard times that we found -- I loved them always

 

 

Goat Shoes

Lyrics by Alize and Edward

 

Upon a turquoise sea our shining sails fly

We count the whales tails, we paint the sky

 

And in the golden sun pineapples shine

Salt air and seahorse, lose track of time

 

We close our eyes, we feel alive, and we can fly

 

The dawn is begging for us to sing

Naked and happy, away we fly

 

Although the seas are choppy and the skies are awfully grey

It’s love we want and love we share each and every day

Beneath the sun is where we are and where we gotta try

Unfurl the sails let’s go already, we have got to fly

 

Why can’t we go to the sea

Why won’t you come out with me

Why do you leave me standing here

In my goat shoes

 

 

Après La Fête

Lyrics by Edward

 

I can’t leave this place until I tell you, until I tell you just how I feel

I didn’t see your face until I saw you, till I saw you just standing there

It’s so easy, it really is, can I have a number or two

Well, I’ll just be here until you are

 

I can’t leave this place until you tell me, until you tell me just how you feel

I knew I had to say something, or else you would have gone away

It’s so easy, it really is, can I have a number or two

Well, I’ll just be here until you are

 

Tell me about yourself, tell me how you feel

Why yes I agree you have a cool job

Tell me something nice, tell me something great

Why yes I agree organic is good

 

Listen, let me ask you something

It’s loud in here, let’s go for a walk

Listen, it’s hard to say

Let’s never leave, let’s be as one

 

Please tell me something I want to know

Please don’t you ever just let me go

I’d always be happy, happy again

 

If I could only just wait a while

If I could only just make you smile

I’d always be happy, happy again

 

Maybe we’re the ones we’ve been looking for

Let me tell you something I want some more

I’ll always be happy, happy again

 

 

Nearer To You

Lyrics by Edward

 

Every time I see your face I think of when we met

After my friend took some girl I was feeling quite upset

You came to me and I tried to see where could I go from here

And after a while I saw your style and I thought that I was near

 

Nearer to you, my love

What were we thinking of

Nearer to you, my love

I’m here

 

You need to understand just why I might have doubts on you

It’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s ‘cause we’re so new

Even with my glasses off, baby you look so clear

I get so excited when I feel you coming near

 

Nearer to you, my love

What were we thinking of

Nearer to you, my love

I’m here

 

There’s nowhere for my love to hide, I feel even more alive inside

There’s not much more that I can say right now

I feel we’re in the first time swing, you’re not just another one-time fling

The only thing that I can say is, how?

 

Every time I see your face I think of when we met

After my friend took some girl I was feeling quite upset

You came to me and I tried to see where could I go from here

And after a while I knew your style and I knew that I was near

 

Nearer to you, my love

What were we thinking of

Nearer to you, my love

I’m here

I'm here

 

 

This is What It Sounds Like

Lyrics by Edward

 

This is what it sounds like when we make love

This is what it sounds like when we break love

This is what it sounds like when we need love

This is what it sounds like when we take love

Away in the park, and not in the dark

 

This is what it sounds like when we

This is what it sounds like when we

This is what is sounds like when we break love

 

This is what it sounds like when we need love

This is what it sounds like when we take love

This is what it sounds like when we feed love

This is what it sounds like when we greed love

Away in the park, and not in the dark

 

This is what it sounds like when we

This is what it sounds like when we

This is what is sounds like when we break love

 

This is what it sounds like [when we make love]

This is what it sounds like [when we make love]

This is what it sounds like [when we make love]

When we make love

 

 

Love That You Want

Lyrics by Edward

 

Sometimes you say I’m crazy, but babe that’s just not true

It’s only ‘cause I’m lazy and I love you

Sometimes you say I’m nice, ‘cause a good man is hard to find

But I just don’t know, don’t want to get stuck behind

 

You think that what you’re doing is right, but I don’t know,

I really don’t want to go, babe, can you see it’s hurting?

 

It’s love that you want but you already got enough from me

It’s love that you want but you already got enough from me

 

I don’t know where I’m going, sometimes I think it’s wrong

I try so hard but sometimes it just is gone

I really want this to work babe, ‘cause I really really need it

I need you bad, I need you so bad

 

I don’t know what is going on except I know I don’t like it

Please just end this, it’s wrong

 

It’s love that you want but you already got enough from me

It’s love that you want but you already got enough from me
