PRECIOUS

[VERSE]

She gathers gold in velvet
for those who face the Sun
and promises the earth
with her pure and precious
hum

[VERSE]

On hallowed wings
through cyan skies
she flies to keep the world alive
delivering a living prize
with her pure and precious
hum

[BRIDGE]

Queens of sunshine
high above
bind us together in your love
make our forever
sweet and true
as we protect and honour you





[VERSE repeat]

She gathers gold in velvet
for those who face the Sun
and promises the earth
with her pure and precious
hum

[VERSE]

There came into my garden
A lost blue butterfly
That carried on its wings
Sad news that made me cry
But through my clouded tears
Its beauty I could see
As it settled on the petals
Of the orange blossom tree

[CHORUS]

I’ve been pretty down and blue
Lost in sorrow over you
It's time to set my own heart free
Time to turn back into me

[VERSE]

I stood there for a moment
Inhaled the sweet perfume
It offered me some comfort
While the sky was dark with doom
The butterfly was strong
Though its wings were paper-light
Then it gently flew away
To find the day that follows night

[CHORUS]

I’ve been pretty down and blue
lost in sorrow over you
It's time to set my own heart free
Time to turn back into me

[VERSE]

It taught me to remember
In heartache and in pain
To focus on the positive
Taste sweetness in the rain
To look within the shadows
For glimmers still to find
Blue butterflies and blossom
In the garden of my mind

[OUTRO]

Blue butterflies and blossom
In the garden of my mind

[VERSE]

I see you looking out for hope
Some supernatural sign
An answer to your heartache
A link to the divine
Girl, life is for living
I know that you’re in pain
But you can’t spend your days
Finding feathers in the rain

[VERSE]

You’re hiding in the shadows
Til every now and then
Patterns in the cloudy sky
Let you smile again
It’s time to look ahead now
I’m trying to explain, darlin’
You can’t spend your days
Finding feathers in the rain

[BRIDGE]

And if you ever wonder
What good comes out of pain
It makes your life more precious
So go live it again

[VERSE]

You’re waiting for a visit
A flicker in the light
You hope you hear a whisper
In the middle of the night
I see how much you miss me
And I know we’ll meet again
But you can’t spend your days
Finding feathers in the rain

[OUTRO]

Darlin’ please don’t spend your days
Finding feathers in the rain

[VERSE]

Raise your hands up for peace
Call for hatred to cease
Walk away from the fight
Keeping love in your sight

[VERSE]

Speak the truth and be kind
Be the hope we can find
Like a flame, pure and bright
You’re the good, shine a light

[CHORUS]

If we hold up our hands
Lay down arms across lands
Open minds, open hearts
We are where the peace starts

[VERSE]

Seeds of hope we can sow
Let the wildflowers grow
Where the soldiers once fell
We will ring the peace bell

[CHORUS]

If we hold up our hands
Lay down arms across lands
Open minds, open hearts
We are where the peace starts

[VERSE]

With our white flags unfurled
We can heal the whole world
Call for hatred to cease
Raise your hands up for peace

[VERSE]

Now you’re gone
I speak only to cobwebs and corners
Tell stories in whispers
And sing silent songs

[VERSE]

Now you’re gone
I show my skin
only to water
Hide scars until darkness
And cover my wrongs

[CHORUS]

I’m an echo, a shadow, a statue, a wraith
Losing my grip on my frost-bitten faith
I’m not so sure what the future will bring
I’m lost in the Winter, afraid of the Spring


[VERSE]

Now you’re gone
I keep my heart
Locked in the attic
Tied up in red ribbons
And frozen in time

[VERSE]

Now you’re gone
I can’t see the starlight above me
The bright moon’s grown dim
And the sun doesn’t shine

[CHORUS]

I’m an echo, a shadow, a statue, a wraith
Losing my grip on my frost-bitten faith
I’m not so sure what the future will bring
I’m lost in the Winter, afraid of the Spring

[PRE-CHORUS]

But I’m getting tired
Of cobwebs and corners
I’m cutting the ribbons
And showing my scars

[BRIDGE]

I’m standing on ice and it’s starting to thaw
I think the seasons are turning once more
I’m not so sure what the future will bring
But I promise myself, I’ll be singing by spring

[CHORUS 2]

No echo, no shadow, no statue, no wraith
I’m moving forward, re-finding my faith
Not lost in the winter but waiting for spring
Opening doorways to wonderful things

[OUTRO]

Yes I promise myself
I’ll be singing by spring
Not lost in the winter
Just waiting for spring

DOUBLE DREAMER

[VERSE]

I’m a double dreamer
Got pictures in my head
I’m living in a movie
Can’t get out of bed

[VERSE]

Baby can you see
What’s happening in my mind
I’m hoping you’re attracted
To the cinematic kind

[CHORUS]

I’m walking on the ceiling
Crawling on the floor
Counting out the minutes
Til I can sleep some more

[VERSE]

I’m a double dreamer
But maybe you can wake me
Love me up and shake me
Til I’m out of my own mind


[VERSE]

Baby don’t forsake me
Do your best to wake me
You’re starring in the movie
That’s playing on my mind

[CHORUS]

I’m walking on the ceiling
Crawling on the floor
Counting out the minutes
Til I can sleep some more

[VERSE]

Panoramic baby
Buy a ticket maybe
Come and see the picture show
I’m out of my own mind

Yeah you’re starring in the movie
That’s playing on my mind

WINTER LOVER

[VERSE]

Late autumn I was dreaming
Beneath the falling leaves
Hoping that a little love
Would float down on the breeze
The gods smiled, I got lucky
You landed at my feet
And brought your sweet new magic
My autumn was complete

[CHORUS]

I told myself that it can’t last
It’s just a season’s fling
And I won’t let the winter
Cast shadows on the spring

[VERSE]

Then somewhere in the snow light
My heart began to melt
I wrapped the blanket of your love
So soft, around myself
And even on the coldest nights
I heard the robin sing
I never guessed the happiness
A falling leaf would bring

[CHORUS]

I told myself that it can’t last
It’s just a season’s fling
And I won’t let the winter
Cast shadows on the spring

[VERSE]

But when it came to Lover’s Day
No roses and no wine
You signed off your goodbyes
The only price to pay was mine
I guess you blew away
And left me feeling like a fool
I had to learn the hard way
That nature can be cruel

[CHORUS]

I told myself that it can’t last
It’s just a season’s fling
And I won’t let the winter
Cast shadows on the spring


(OUTRO)

I still won’t let the winter
Cast shadows on the spring
I told myself that it can’t last
It’s just a season’s fling

BEAUTIFUL REASONS

[VERSE]

You stayed out all night and when I asked you why
Told me beautiful reasons to hide a plain lie
Said you wanted to be a friend that was true
So you lent her your shoulder, like good friends should do

[CHORUS]

Too trusting, too foolish, it’s too late to cry
But you couldn’t look me straight in the eye
When you said it was nothing, I saw through your lie
Your beautiful reasons meant I said goodbye

[VERSE]

Now you didn’t need to stay there all night
Then come home and tell me you’re too tired to fight
Well I’m going to make it easy for you
Go back to her place, because honey, we’re through

[BRIDGE]

You had your chance and you gave it away
Enjoy your games, but I’m not going to play
I’ve got my pride and my self-respect too
I might be foolish, but no fool for you


[CHORUS]

Too trusting, too foolish, it’s too late to cry
But you couldn’t look me straight in the eye
When you said it was nothing, I saw through your lie
Your beautiful reasons meant I said goodbye

[OUTRO]

Boy, you couldn’t look me straight in the eye
Your beautiful reasons meant I said goodbye
