Surprise

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Every time I wake up I'm holding out my hand
Strugglin' with my make up who says what makes a man
I'm questioning my innocence I'm wondering where you've gone
Trapped inside my troubled mind where your memory lingers on

How do you sleep
Why did you do it
How can you breathe
You lied to me
You walked right out and blew it
Why did you leave
How do you sleep

This never should've happened but I guess you needed more
You should've left temptation standing at your door
'Cause if God made man and woman then he must've made me too
And filled me up with this special love and I gave it all to you

How do you sleep
Why did you do it
How can you breathe
You lied to me
You walked right out and blew it
Why did you leave
How do you sleep

BRIDGE
If I'd have thought for just one minute
Maybe I could believe
But you lied and deceived

How do you sleep
Why did you do it
How can you breathe
You lied to me
You walked right out and blew it
Why did you leave

How do you sleep
When you lied and deceived
Baby how do you sleep
Why did you do it
Why did you leave
How do you sleep

How Do You Sleep

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Some days I think here I go again
Somewhere on my road that never ends
Always taking one step at a time
Til today I wake up with a smile
Feeling good about my extra mile

Surprise surprise
It must be something looking thru your eyes
You didn't think I'd give up did ya
I feel so good
I forgive ya
This is my surprise

The good times that we had were far between
Never losing vision of my dream
Always waiting for my chance to shine
Waiting for my future to unwind
20 20 vision on my mind

Surprise surprise
It must be something looking thru your eyes
You didn't think I'd give up did you
I feel so good
I forgive you
This is my surprise

Looking back
What's the big deal
You knew me for a minute
You don't know how I feel
I know who you are
Watch the way you steal
Woo woo baby
You're unreal

Surprise surprise
It must be something looking through your eyes
You didn't think I'd give up did you
I feel so good
I forgive you
This is my surprise

Surprise surprise
It must be something looking through your eyes
Well ya didn't think I'd give up did ya
I feel so good
I forgive you
This is my surprise

You didn't think I'd give up did ya
I feel so good
I forgive ya
This is my surprise

Every one who knows you says
What's been going on in there
I don't know what I can do
Every time I hold you, you
Say that I don't know you, I
Don't know what you're going through
I've heard you cry
Now I cry too
What in the world's come over you

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
If I counted to three
Would you come back to me

Something in my heart shows me
Something I don't want to see
How can I believe my eyes
When I'm looking at you, I
Know you make me happy but
I can't make you happy why
I lie awake
Now you do too
What in the world's come over you

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
If I counted to three
Would you come back to me

Show me a sign
And we'll pull through
We'll show the world
What love can do
What in the world's come over you

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
I know I can't do anymore

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
If I counted to three
Would you come back to me

If I Counted To Ten

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Say your name at the door come inside settle down
I'll be filled with your presence and then
Let me sing you your song like it's never been sung
And it's so good to see you again
Lila, Lila

Will you look just the same like I want you to
And will I be the same thing for you
Have the years let you age in an elegant way
And I know I've been lost without you
Lila, Lila

I'm coming home
I'll see you tonight
Safe in my arms
I'll hold you tonight
I'm coming home tonight

When you sent me away I took memories
So the break in my heart couldn't mend
Then I lived with the pain and the pleasure of you
I thank God that you love me again
Lila, Lila

I'm coming home
I'll see you tonight
Safe in my arms
I'll hold you tonight
I'm coming home tonight

Through the fire
You and I
Lila, Lila

I'm coming home
I'll see you tonight
Safe in my arms
I'll hold you tonight

I'm coming home I'll hold you
Safe in my arms I'll hold you
I'm coming home tonight
Gonna hold you tonight
Gonna love you tonight
Cause I need you

Through the fire
Lila

I'm Coming Home

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Money can't buy you happiness
Says an age old adage
Sent to impress upon the weaker sex

And your money can't buy you love any more
Save it in your money store
And watching it growing more and more
And more and more

What you gonna do when it doesn't matter anymore
What you gonna say when it's all too late
When you open up your eyes
When the light has died
When you hesitate
When it's all too late

Guided by voices who more or less
Talk of how you're destined
But nevertheless you lived at my address

If you're blinded by voices over and over again
Tell me how the story ends
Will you live your life for them
Your so called friends

What you gonna do when it doesn't matter anymore
What you gonna say when it's all too late
When you open up your eyes
When the light has died
When you hesitate
When it's all too late

I'll be watching you I swear it
Our love is much too deep to share it
Above all loves yours I cherished
So much so I won't forget it

What you gonna do when it doesn't matter anymore
What you gonna say when it's all too late
When you open up your eyes
When the light has died
When you hesitate
When it's all too late

When It's All Too Late

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

I'm walking down the road the other day
I said hi to a body but he turned away
I thought myself am I the invisible man
Then I talked in a language he could understand

Walk don't run
Turn around and have some fun
Walk don't run
Another day in your life has just begun

It was music to my ears when I heard the sound
Of people making love in the underground
I thought myself this is impossible today
Let the voice of freedom take you all the way

Walk don't run
Turn around and have some fun
Walk don't run
Another day in your life's begun
Walk don't run
Come together one by one
Walk don't run
Another day in your life has just begun

You know I was walking through the park the other day
I said Hi..

Did you see that guy walk away from me then
Like I'm some kinda weirdo or something

People are so weird
Don't know why I bother

Walk Don't Run

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you
Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you

You could send me walking in the pouring rain with a hole in my shoe
I would stand for days on end on a crowded train that takes me to you
I would dice with death and danger
I would kiss a stranger if you wanted me too
Wouldn't even bat an eyelid if you stripped me naked
So the jokes on you

Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you
Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you

I could dive for pearls and treasure but it wouldn't measure what I feel for you
I could hold my breath for hours, even stop the powers for a minute or two
I would make a rich man cry then I'd steal for you what I couldn't buy
I would take another lover
It could be your mother
I'd do it for you

Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you
Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you

I believe in love you see
I'd do it for you
Would you do it for me
I believe in love you see
I'd do it for you
Would you do it for me

Ooh - I'd do it for you

I would serve you holy water
Buy a flying saucer, go tripping with you
Do the extraordinary though it might be scary
I'd go through it for you
I would take you out tonight
I would make you feel all right
Ooh my baby,
Baby baby baby now
I'd do it for you

Ooh ooh ooh -  make you feel allright
Ooh ooh ooh  - I'd do it for you
I believe in love you see
I'd do it for you,
Do it for me
I believe in love you see
I'd do it for you,
Would you do it for me

Ooh ooh ooh -  I'd do it for you

I'd Do It For You

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

I can't know where I'm going
I can't show 'til I have seen
I can't be unless I'm growing
I can't live 'til I can be

I need a place in this world
I need some love ooh yeh
I wanna face I wanna be there
I wanna fly

Feels like I'm falling from my planet
Looking for a vision then I'm gonna scan it
Make it looking better
Make it look a more
Feels like I'm falling
I can't do it anymore

I gotta do what I'm doing
I got a plan I got a vibe
I need to do some revision
I need to be satisfied

I'm at a river
I need to cross it
I'm on a road that doesn't bend
I need to ease my situation
I want the world
I want the world to be my friend

Feels like I'm falling from my planet
Looking for a vision then I'm gonna scan it
Make it looking better
Make it look a more
Feels like I'm falling
I can't do it anymore

Feels like I'm falling from this planet
Looking for a vision then I'm gonna scan it
Make it looking better
Make look a more
Feels like I'm falling
I can't do it anymore

'Caus it feels like I'm falling from this planet
Looking for a vision then I'm gonna scan it
Make it look a better
Make it look a more
Feels like I'm falling
I can't do it anymore

feels like i'm falling

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

In my world of plenty, of nothing
Where lovers come and go
Came the day been waiting, been praying
You walk through my door

I didn't know I'd fall so much in love with you
How could I know you would open my eyes
And when you ask me how happy I am and it's true
I say I feel for you

Through my eyes a vision, an angel
A rare and precious view told me
Don't give up on wishing and hoping
Dreams still do come true

I didn't know I'd fall so much in love with you
How could I know you would open my eyes
And when you ask me how happy I am and it's true
I say I feel for you

I'm gonna make you love me
More than you've ever loved
More than you've ever dreamed of
Higher than the moon above

I didn't know I'd fall so much in love with you
How could I know you would open my eyes
And when you ask me how happy I am and it's true
I say I feel for you

You know it's true I feel for you
You know I feel for you

I Feel 4 U

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Outside the rain is falling down
Inside my heart is pouring out
Don't want people at my door - calling
A trace of you I cannot find
Your face will never leave my
Mind as I cry I cry

Slow slow baby please don't go
I feel like talking
Don't wanna let go, I said
Slow slow baby please don't go
If you keep walking
We'll never know

It's hard when someone says goodbye
Without an explanation why
I'm feeling so confused - inside
My longest day will never end
Until you talk with me
Again must I cry I cry

Slow Slow Baby please don't go
I feel like talking
Don't wanna let go
Slow Slow baby please don't go
If you keep walking
We'll never know

Cry must I cry I cry

CHORUS
Slow slow baby please don't go
I feel like talking
Don't wanna let go
I said Slow slow baby please don't go
If you keep walking
We'll never know

Slow Slow Baby please don't go
I feel like talking
Don't wanna let go
Slow Slow baby please don't go
If you keep walking
We'll never know

Slow Slow

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Once upon a time there was love
I held it in the palm of my hand
I was glad to be there so satisfied
And now the love is still in my eyes

You took me for the ride of my life
I let you when I let you in
And the measure of your affection was
You were my lover you were never my friend
And I can't come round again

Higher than heaven
Nothing's higher than that
World's collide when broken heart divide
you could be feeling
Higher than Heaven
Nothing's higher than that
You can't come in
And I can't come back

Standing in your shadow of love
Living with your highs and your lows
I'm weak with the thought of the warmth of your touch
But I'm strong enough to let you go

You fooled me you could do it again
I'm over being nothing to you
So I'm taking a train or a boat or a plane
And I don't wanna where to
But I'm not coming back to you

Higher than Heaven
Nothing's higher than that
World's collide when broken hearts divide
You could be feeling
Higher than Heaven
Nothing's higher than that
You can't come in
And I can't come back

Higher than Heaven
Nothing's higher than that
World's collide when broken hearts
You could be feeling
Higher than heaven
Nothing's higher than that
Worlds collide when broken hearts divide
You could be feeling
Higher than Heaven
Nothing's higher that that
You can't come in
And I can't come back no no no
You can't come in
And I can't come back

Higher Than Heaven

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

How could I know you'd leave me
How is a fool to tell
When it's for real or when it's a game
I should've known
oh well.

Into your world I tumbled
Further than I could fall
Head over heels and out of my depth
I gave it to you
My all

You were ruthless and beautiful with a
Tender heart but oh so cool and a
Not afraid to break the rules
So you broke the heart of this simple fool

I could've stayed forever
Lost in my sense of time
Where nothing else mattered it has to be said
I was yours
You were mine

You were ruthless and beautiful with a
Tender heart but oh so cool and a
Not afraid to break the rules
So you broke the heart of this simple fool

Ooh baby
We could've had it all
Me an' you baby
Were you scared of it all
To frightened to fall

Ruthless and beautiful with a
Tender heart but oh so cool and a
Not afraid to break the rules
So you broke the heart of this simple fool

But you were Ruthless and beautiful with a
Tender heart but oh so cool and a
Not afraid to break the rules
So you broke the heart of this simple fool

Why did you break the heart of this simple fool

Ruthless And Beautiful

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Some people might think that I got nothing to say
Some people might say that I got nothing to lose
I do what I wanna do but baby when it comes to you
I got a lot to learn, I got a lot to lose

I've never been one to wear my heart on my sleeve
When somebody comes on to me I freeze I can't breathe
With a little self sacrifice no, no matter how hard I try
Then I think I can but it's all an illusion

Long as I live and breathe
Words that tell my feelings don't come easy to me
Don't know why but it happens to be
I got a warm heart but then I get cold feet

Best thing I would say if I could talk to myself is
Get a hold of your life don't live for everyone else
We could wait for time to tell but I can't do that
I'm gonna cast a spell
You would see no other we'd be walking on water

Long as I live and breathe
Words that tell my feelings don't come easy to me
Don't know why but it happens to be
I got a warm heart but then I get cold feet
I got a warm heart but then I get cold feet

Come on baby someone to hear me
All I need is someone to show me how,  how
All I need is someone to talk to
All I want is someone to want to now,  now

Long as I live and breathe
Words that tell my feelings don't come easy to me
Don't know why but it happens to be
I got a warm heart but then I get cold feet

I got a warm heart but then I get cold feet

Warm Heart Cold Feet

Written by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn

Let me breathe
Cause I'm drowning in your shadow
Let me leave
Respect me do not follow me believe
I can make me own tomorrow
Let me breathe

Does it make
You feel good cause you own me
Does it take
Your puppet strings to hold me
How I ache
As you're trying to control me

Let me breathe
Let me dance 'till my shoes cry
Let me laugh let me be
Let me dance
Let me choose my life
Let me climb the living tree

Picture this
When you wake up in the morning
And I kiss
Your sorry ass goodbye
What will I miss
There's nothing I can think of as I leave

Let me dance 'till my shoes cry
Let me laugh let me be
