The Hunted
04:15

|

You walked into the bar
Looking for a kill
You went straight for the heart
With those eyes and your will
You walked straight past the guards
Who would keep me safe and sound
Disarmed them with one move
You threw their armour down
But when the bloody battle is over
And the conqueror’s had his fill
Bearing the scars on my chest to remind me
That I’ll be forever hunting you still
I’ll be forever hunting you still
You must have sensed the need
You were looking for the weak
You knew by the way my ruby lips began to speak
I couldn’t put up a fight
I did not stand the chance
I gave into you then, I gave you all I had

Nothing Going On
03:22

Oh baby, don’t know what you believe but ya
Can’t trust what you think you see
There’s no evidence for conclusions drawn
Because he and I got nothing going on
You may have heard about another one
But it’s been years since we’ve been done
And it ain't like me to look back on a setting sun
More and more every single day I dream of
Cutting loose and running away
From your little world but you just keep holding on
Baby baby don’t look at me
With those judging eyes and jealousy
Because what you’re thinking, you know it just ain’t right
Why the hell tell me would I lie
Just to stay out a little later at night
And maybe baby I was just having me some fun
Stop accusing me of crimes I’ve never done
You’re abusing me, like I’m not a vixen on the run
Oh baby, don’t know what you believe but ya
Can’t trust what you think you see
There’s no evidence for conclusions drawn
Don’t you mind not looking at me
With those judging eyes and jealousy
You should know by now you’re my only one
Cuz he and I got nothing going on

One Day
02:38

|

One day he will come
One day he will come
And he’ll do everything
The way it’s meant to be done
But until then I won’t be waiting
I won’t pretend I don’t need saving
Cos nothings gonna hold me back from a heart of gold
And nothing gonna to steal my sun and leave me cold
I’ll be strong keep on keepin’ on n’when he’s standing there
I won’t run
Cos one day he’ll come oh oh oh oh oh oh
One day he’ll appear
One day he’ll be here
Ooh lovin’ on me
The way it’s meant to be

Favourite Thing
03:11
|
|
||
When the night comes rolling in
You come rolling by
There’s no reason for you to call
And I won’t ask you why
Because you’re my favourite thing to do
And I can’t keep my paws off you
All the causes in the world I chose you
Because you’re my favourite thing to do
When the day just keeps dragging on
I get a good feeling that you’ll be coming on home
With your tight blue jeans and trouble in your eyes
Well honey you know, you know what’s on my mind
There’s a voice inside my head that says
Pretty mama don’t let him get away
In my arms is where you belong
Should stop coming round
I’ll be hanging on

Sometimes You Lose
05:03
|
|
||
I’ve been living in a bottle
Laying low where the sun don’t dare to shine
And I’ve been walking ahead empty highway
Looking for something to relieve my mind
And this could be heaven, sleeping in the arms of hell
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
Some things in life you don’t get to choose
But when you win who's going to lose
Feeling through empty suitcases
Playing nice as the pleasantries begin
Worry and trouble carry me now
Through this wayward life I’ve been living
And nothing's going to save me now

All I Need
03:58
|
|
||
I don't need another lover to tell me I'm beautiful
And I don't need another friend to take me out into the real world
Because I’ve seen how this story ends, time and time again
A bad taste in my mouth
Feeling sad and lonely, be my one and only
Baby let me take you out, take me out
And all I need is for someone, to make me feel safe from harm
Quiet these voices in my head, when they’re talking me to death
What I need is a real man, to take me by my little hand
Learn the song inside my heart and sing it to me when I forget
Don’t let me forget
I don’t need another pretty boy searching for himself
I’m not looking to be a mother to the young and defenseless
Another talent from a small town praying on his way down
Drinking to drown his ghosts
I wasn’t looking for no trouble I knew you were a struggle
But how was I supposed to know you couldn’t love

Thar She Blows
04:07
|
|
||
She walks through the door, beckoning me
Singing the praise of what I need
And laughing, she’s laughing
Seems time has made a fool of me
And holding my breath between her teeth
She’s laughing, laughing
But Oh thar she blows
Oh oh oh thar she blows
The Promise of love is leading me
She sweeps me gently off my feet
Are dancing and so we’re dancing
But like a ship afloat the wailing sea
This curse shall have her way with me
While dancing and laughing
But Oh thar she blows
Oh oh oh thar she blows

Not Leaving Here Alone
03:52
|
|
||
I’m a long way from home
And this bar is more than for drinking in
And I ain’t leaving here alone
Because this bar is more than for drinking in
And I guess I felt uneasy when my bones began to quiver
I know I will be shaken when the party delivers
Oh it’s a far cry from where I’ve come
Breaking bones to the beat of a drum
Oh what a selfless thought
I ain't leaving here alone
Rivals and Rangers
The call of duty is all the same
I’ll be a shadow by the river
And I will sleep in the bed I've made
And I guess I felt uneasy when my bones began to quiver
I know I will be shaken when the party delivers

Pass Me Over
03:57
|
|
||
This world is no place for a lover like me
I’m too ripe'n raw and ready for the kill
I believe in it all and get caught every time
Too loyal to cheat with those who will
I’d run after those thieves but I’m much too slow
The faster I fall the farther they go
Out with the old and in with the new
And suddenly they’re passing through
So please pass me over, pass me over
Pass me over, pass me over again
I’m too young to be jaded, spaded and spun
Around till I’m dizzy and come undone
And I can’t tell the men from the wolves anymore
Tell me what It is I should be looking for
Cos this heart is no place for a wounded whore
Whose only desire is to conquer them all
I'm too soft for the sweethearts and then softer still
Too weak to swallow that pill
And what do you say to a girl without a home
With no arms to run to outstretched and warm
After she leaves and then leaves again
Don’t lead me on now

One Day (Alternative)
02:27

One day he will come
One day he will come
And he’ll do everything
The way It’s s meant to be done
But until then I won’t be waiting
I won’t pretend, I don’t need saving
Because nothings gonna hold me back from a heart of gold
Ain’t nothing gonna to steal my sun and leave me cold
I’ll be strong keep on keepin’ on n’when he’s standing there
I won’t run
Cos one day he’ll come oh oh oh oh oh oh
One day he’ll appear
One day he’ll just be here
Ooh lovin’ on me
The way it’s meant to be
