I’m just a girl who dreamt of singing (yeah) Who wants the adulation most What am I trying to conform to Why am I making friends with ghosts Been chasing a ghost that doesn’t exist It’s haunting my soul, I’m scared and alone Been running away, no way to resolve How did I get here, how can I get home

Sometimes I drif t away I melt into another place It’s a fraction of my mind And no it doesn’t need a face I meditate I f ind the light Put the wrong I’ve done to right It is part of giving time to Get the best I can in life

Been chasing a ghost that doesn’t exist It’s haunting my soul, I’m scared and alone Been running away, no way to resolve How did I get here, how can I get home

Fly over me, make it clear, help me see No more turning back now cos I’m where I should be No longer am lost in a dark fantasy I followed on and carried on now Help me believe that the things that I need Are high up with you, so much bigger than me The story is written before I could breathe So stay here beside me, help me to see

Been chasing a ghost that doesn’t exist It’s haunting my soul, I’m scared and alone Been running away, no way to resolve How did I get here, how can I get home

Been chasing a ghost that doesn’t exist

It’s haunting my soul, I’m scared and alone Been running away, no way to resolve How did I get here, how can I get home How can I get How can I get How can I get home

08. HAND IT OVERThere’s a part That doesn’t even work at all Ran out of power cos I lef t it on But there’s a part that still believes in love But now it’s turning cold

Cos I let somebody handle And I made it hurt again, yeah Cos they did it so much damage Never thought it would run again, no But I found the pieces Every single one

And I put ‘em back Never wanna go through that again

Oh no, say no no Say never wanna, say no no Oh if I hand it over to you Would you help my heart out with a beat or two Oh if I hand it over to you Would you be careful

When you’re close My heart’s way above the ground But then it falls when you’re not around It beats and it pounds I can’t turn it down And now I’m afraid

Cos I let somebody handle And I made it hurt again, yeah Cos they did it so much damage Never thought it would run again, no But I found the pieces Every single one And I put ‘em back Never wanna go through that again

Oh no, say no no Say never wanna, say no no

Oh if I hand it over to you Would you help my heart out with a beat or two Oh if I hand it over to you Would you be careful

You got so many things about you And I don’t have the words to say Cos my heart is doin’ the talking Can you hear it It’s callin’ your name

09. DO YOU KNOW THE WAY IT FEELS

Have you felt the pain Of a love so deep you think your heart might break Has someone touched your soul so deep inside Did you feel your whole world stop The moment that you looked into their eyes

Oh do you know what it’s like Do you know the way it feels When you love someone so bad You can’t think of nothing else But the touch of their hand And you wanna walk away but no you know you can’t Do you know the way it feels

Have you had those nights when you can’t sleep Cos the picture of their face is all you see You know you need that love like you need air And you f ind it hard to breathe Sometimes when you just look and see them there Oh you know it’s just not fair

Do you know the way it feels When you love someone so bad You can’t think of nothing else But the touch of their hand And you wanna walk awaybut no you know you can’t

Do you know the way it feels Do you have a clue What I’m going through Do you know what it’s like When you feel like you’re just about to lose your mind, baby Do you know the way it feels When you love someone so bad You can’t think of nothing else But the touch of their hand And you wanna walk away but no you know you can’t Do you know the way it feels

10. CAN I BEGINAs much as I’ve been trying to say As much as I appear OK Been holding on pretending like nothing’s wrong There’s many things I wanna see But f irst of all I’ve gotta see me Cos I can’t breathe

Now that we’re over Life’s getting colder

Trying so hard to feel the sun Can I begin to relive my life And release all the pain inside Overdone now I wanna love again Everyday is a dif ferent vibe Up and down like a fairground ride Overdone now

How can I begin How can I begin Not tryin to win How can I begin To love again

Situated in my bed Pictures running through my head Some are good some I wish I’d never took no, no The probability of me Feeling down and lonely I’m no longer scared

Now that we’re over Life’s getting colder Trying so hard to feel the sun Can I begin to relive my life And release all the pain inside Overdone now I wanna love again Everyday is a dif ferent vibe Up and down like a fairground ride Overdone now


Hold on when all the hope is gone I’m starting at the ending and I’ll just move on Fall down still wearing my crown Nothing’s gonna hurt me coz What goes around comes around

Can I begin to relive my life And release all the pain inside Overdone now

14. I’M THRUIn terms of lies and f ilth I don’t amount to much My soul is sugar sweet with an angelic touch But every single boy who thinks I’m worth a try Well I’d like to give him one in the eye I’ve had enough of giving now I’m on the take I’m changing my religion for my poor heart’s sake Had it up to here, I’ll take a running jump if any boy comes near

I’m through with love, it didn’t do much for me I’m through with love, as if you really care I’m through with love, so honey please don’t call me I’m through with love, mon cher

I had the chance to think about the whole shebang And come to the conclusion that it’s not my thing A word to the wise, keep out of site My bark ain’t nothing on my bite I’m sure it isn’t me but that I can’t be sure

It seems that cupid’s arrow always hits the board Had it up to here, I’ll take a running jump if any boy comes near


To boldly go where no girl’s gone before I’m packing up and heading out the door Heavens above I’m through with love It didn’t do much for me Do do do do do do do


Do do do do do do do.

15. TO LOVE AGAINAll this time I felt so lost Lost and needed help Incomplete out of reach Alone all by myself It all becomes so clear When I see your face And it’s only when you’re near I feel I’m safe

So before we take this road Before you change my mind And f ill my heart with hope Help me to believe this time I’ve been torn apart Desperately trying to f ind a way back to my heart So I can love again

Help me to love again

I’m so tired of holding on So tired of waiting I need to feel something real Without it breaking It all becomes so clear When you touch my hand And it’s only when you’re near I know you understand


There’s a f ire within me But I don’t know where to start There’s a light beginning There’s a dark I’m leaving There’s a hope I’m feeling now


Turn the page to love again.

18. ALL OUT OF TUNEListen I don’t have to say it Just listen To the words that we just don’t say right now I really wanna love but I don’t know how Can’t you hear how it’s playing Like guitars with broken strings There’s never any harmony Don’t cry We both know the sounds of a long goodbye

The truth is that it Never should’ve gone this far And it never would’ve been this hard I I don’t want play this song But I was never in love

Now it’s all out of tune Between me and you Can’t you hear the music I’ll be leaving soon Cos it’s all out of tune Can’t you hear the lyrics The words and melodies They’re sharp and cut to deep The sound is piercing

And the song keeps playing Your heart keeps breaking And I can’t take it The song’s still playing But we’re all out of tune

I’ll say it cause it painful to just Replay this I don’t wanna break your heart no more But I can never give you what you’re asking for See you have never done me wrong To leave a good man is hard It’s harder if we stay here and we Just deny We can’t be together and we both know why

The truth is that it Never should’ve gone this far and It never would’ve been this hard I I don’t want play this song But I was never in love


And the song keeps playing Your heart keeps breaking And I can’t take it The song’s still playing But we’re all out of tune

See I don’t really wanna sing this part But all I wanna do is make it stop But the song plays on The song plays on and on and on and on...


And the song keeps playing Your heart keeps breaking And I can’t take it The song’s still playing And we’re all out of tune=
