If I Say I Love You

Can I be me
The devil saw the time
Time slips between my fingers
I say I’m fine
To the person who asks me how are you
I’d sell my soul to them
Only for you
I remember how you made me feel
And me now it makes me cry
It makes me question what happened then
What happened then and why
Oh stranger, if I say I love you would you say it back to me
if I say I love you would you say it back to me
I know what game you’re playing but it doesn’t bother me
if I say I love you would you say it back to me
When I see you now I’m proud
But I remember when I first saw you
We were so shy back then
Now they know why
You hold our secrets with you
You use them to be you
While I lie in bed crying
Cause I miss you
Oh stranger, if I say I love you would you say it back to me
if I say I love you would you say it back to me
I know what game you’re playing but it doesn’t bother me
if I say I love you would you say it back to me
Oh stranger, stranger, stranger
If I say I love you would you say it back to me

Forget Me Nots

Raindrops fall on the flowerbeds
While I’m dreaming of a summer day and wishing I’d met you that night
A crowded room where I saw you
We would have had such a time if I’d walked across the floor
Forget me nots and raindrops
Falling golden from the sky as midnight rises high
When the lights are low and there’s nowhere else to go
I can see the colour of the sky
The glitter lights up your eyes
It’s perfect this time
While the city sleeps, I’m wide awake
Knowing I can’t take it back cause they’re words I didn’t say
Rewind the time cause I miss you
I’ve got things I need to say that I should have said before
Forget me nots and raindrops
Falling golden from the sky as midnight rises high
When the lights are low and there’s nowhere else to go
I can see the colour of the sky
The glitter lights up your eyes
It’s perfect this time
Forget me nots and raindrops
Falling golden from the sky as midnight rises high
When the lights are low and there’s nowhere else to go
I can see the colour of the sky
The glitter lights up your eyes
It’s perfect this time

The Distance

I see you in your spaceship
We can get through this
Out here it's just you and me
Shining brightly with your auburn hair
Careful not to catch a star's glare
Slow down and wait for me
Before you disappear
Don't worry, I'll wait for you
This time I'm telling the truth
I promise I won't lie to you anymore
Secretly I wanna run away
Fly away I’ll live in space
Slow down there’s no rush to turn back time
This time you’ve crossed the line
The line I’ve laid out before me is as far as you will go
So turn around and face the distance
Lately I’ve been crying my goodbyes
Waiting for you to go
Lately I’m dying inside
I see you with your starry eyes
I’m not lying to you this time
I’m running away from you
From me
Away
I won’t slow down, I’ll turn back the time
Cause this time you’ve crossed the line
The line I’ve laid out before me is as far as you will go
So turn around and face the distance
So turn around and face the distance

Edge of the Universe

Say goodbye to your only
You’re never coming back to Earth
You’re floating in the Universe
Up there in the sky
I hope you don’t wait for me
Travel the Universe and see
My love, I’m sorry
I have to do this for me
It’s everything I want it to be
It’s the only place I can be me
An alien, an astronaut and me
Don’t you cry
Your tears will freeze
in the midnight sky
There’s no getting by
Let me smile
Let me live the life
I want to live
Please, forgive me
Fly me to the edge of the Universe
Let me see what there is to see
There’s no holding me back
Space is where I want to be
On your world I’m lost
But in mine I am free
Floating in a deep blue sea
Like a dream
I don’t need air to breathe
I just need space to be me
Out here I can be myself
Living what dreams are made of
Still I cry
And my tears freeze
in the midnight sky
There’s no getting by
Still I smile
Cause I live the life
I want to live
For me
Fly me to the edge of the Universe
Let me see what there is to see
There’s no holding me back
Space is where I want to be
Flying to the edge of the Universe
Seeing what there is to see
There’s no holding me back now
Out here,
I’m me
Who I want to be
An alien, an astronaut and me
I’m doing this for me

I Am Me

Slow down, I wanna come back to you
Do you wanna come back to me?
Do you wanna come home?
Lightning, it strikes me
But I'm still living through you
Cause you are me and I am you
We are who we are together
When I close my eyes I see you all the time
I live my life as you instead of me
I see you in my dreams and in reality
Cause you don't know who you wanna be
You are me
I am how you escape from the person you've become
I'm hiding, inside you
I will always be there for you
Why live as two when we can be one
We can be together forever
When I close my eyes I see you all the time
I live my life as you instead of me
I see you in my dreams when in reality
You don't know who you wanna be
I am me
I am me
I am me, yeah
I am me

Good Place to Be

One light year away
I can see you looking down on me
I’m learning to be brave
You’re miles away
Are you missing me
I see you up there in the sky
Do you see me?
I don’t want to hold you back
We’re on separate tracks
But I’m missing you
But you can’t be yourself
While you’re holding on to me
You left me behind for a reason
That reason is me
This is a good place to be
I’m learning to be me
Loves light year is following me
One light year away
I’m floating further away from you
I’m learning to be brave
I’m miles away
I’m missing you
Floating round in space
I can’t subtract the days as you
I see you in myself
These are the cards I was dealt
And I’m missing you
But I can’t be myself
While I’m holding on to you
I left you behind for a reason
That reason is you
This is a good place to be
I’m learning to be me
Loves light year is following me
One light year away
What happens now
Do I turn left and say I’m sorry
Or do I turn right and beg you please don’t go
Please don’t go
One light year away
I’m floating further away from you
