Lyrics

I would give my life
to have you beside me
I would give my life
to have you beside me

the water was so warm
we didn't care about the storm
we didn't care about the storm
the sun was coming up or
was it going down
I got turned around
but there was something there I found
I could not tell you what
It seems so unclear

but something in the water
something pulled me near
I saw him fade away
blend into the grey
of the ever present sky
knowing he would die

I would give my life
to have you beside me
I would give my life
to have you beside me

now everything has gone black
I say everyone please stand back
I've answered all your questions true
now what am I gonna do
I could just not believe my eyes
when I saw him plucked from the skies

I would give my life
to have you beside me
I would give my life
to have you beside me

and everyday another thing
another thing in the paper
another tragedy at sea
something that we'll read later
another tale, a girl like me
and everybody wants to hate her
and every day another thing
another thing in the paper

now everything is gonna be alright
alright, alright
gonna douse myself with gasoline
alright, alright
and everyone finally see me cry
finally see me sigh
finally see me surrender
bye bye water
bye bye sky
bye bye all
I leave tonightStrange (Tale of Love)
What?s a tale of love without tragedy?
What?s a tale of love without tragedy?
Just tell me

Maybe if I held your hand a little tighter
Made the room a little brighter
Made you laugh once again
Maybe if I took you for a swim
Underwater feel your skin
Draw you close
Maybe then
Maybe if I wore for you a tighter sweater
Sent to you a witty letter
Brought you flowers
Now and then
Maybe if I put on a disguise
Something to feast your hungry eyes
Danced for you
Maybe then

Strange how the stars they shine
Yeah, they shine for you
But you don?t look up
So you don?t see them
Strange how I give you love
But it seeps right through
So I give you more
But you don?t feel it

What would you do
Would you dye your hair
Tame a lion
Join the fair
What would you do
Would you write a story
Make me the hero
Give me the glory

I could rule the world
I?d be the girl
With all the shinny sparkles
I?d spread them around
Plant them in the ground
And grow magic apples

Maybe if I held your hand a little tighter
Made the room a little brighter
Made you laugh once again
Maybe if I put on a disguise
Something to feast your hungry eyes
Danced for you
Maybe then

Strange how the stars they shine
Yeah, they shine for you
But you don?t look up
So you don?t see them
Strange how I give you love
But it seeps right through
So I give you more
But you don?t feel it

And if I was a river
I would flow
And if I was a candle
I would glow
And if I was a sailor
I would row
You onto safe sand

But you are to scared to give
And this is not a way to live
Like pouring water through a sieve
I?ve got nothing in my hands

And if I was a candle
I would glow
