I never asked Anything of you To make you smile Was all I aimed do Guess I was guilty When you were so cruel Of loving you too much Of being your fool But one day you'll remember (somewhere down the road) One day you'll remember (when your life gets cold) One day you'll remember (how it used to be) When you were loved I should have known Right from the start You'd only break my lonely heart And I should have seen Just what you'd do You left me shattered, broken and blue But one day you'll remember (somewhere down the road) One day you'll remember (when your life gets cold) One day you'll remember (how it used to be) When you were loved When you were loved When you were loved When you were loved When you were loved

Beguiled 04:33
The fires of Hell are burning bright I see the light of love in your eyes The fires of Hell are burning bright I see the light of love in your eyes I'm in the line of fire There's fire in my soul I burn with desire For the one I'll never hold The fires of Hell are burning bright I see the light of love in your eyes The fires of Hell they burn so bright I see the light of love in your eyes I'm in the line of fire There's fire in my soul I burn with desire For the one I'll never hold Will I ever be free Lovelorn and lost at your mercy I'm beguiled hopelessly Your beauty tortures me The fires of Hell are burning bright I see the light of love in your eyes The fires of Hell they burn so bright I see the light of love in your eyes I'm in the line of fire There's fire in my soul I burn with desire For the one I'll never hold Will I ever be free Your beauty tortures me Lovelorn and lost at your mercy I'm beguiled hopelessly The fires of Hell are burning bright I see the light of love in your eyes The fires of Hell they burn so bright I see the light of love in your eyes

Either you love me Or you set me free It's been goin' on For far too long So sick of playing your game Like a moth to a flame I've been burnt up But I go on You gotta let me know, let your feelings show Don't keep me, hangin' on and on and on Have you no shame Feel like I'm on your chain Either you love me Or you set me free It's been goin' on For far too long Like a moth to a flame I'm drawn to you in ways I can't explain Yeah, like a moth to a flame I'm drawn to you in ways I can't explain Either you love me Or you set me free It's been goin' on For far too long It's been goin' on For far too long

Slain 02:07
Come away, come away, death, And in sad cypress let me be laid. Fly away, fly away, breath; I am slain by a fair cruel maid. My shroud of white, stuck all with yew, O, prepare it! My part of death, no one so true Did share it. Not a flower, not a flower sweet, On my black coffin let there be strown. Not a friend, not a friend greet My poor corpse, where my bones shall be thrown. A thousand thousand sighs to save, Lay me, O, where Sad true lover never find my grave, To weep there!

One Year On 03:22
One year on Since your love has gone And I'm sinking ever deeper Day by day One year on Still the pain's not gone Will it ever, will it never Go away And now all I have left To hold on to Are bitter-sweet memories Of me and you Tried to move on But ever since you've been gone Been feeling all the more lost Day by day And now all I have left To hold on to Is just bitter-sweet memories Of me and you One year on Since your love has gone Will this loneliness Ever go away One year on Still the pain's not gone And I'm sinking ever deeper Day by day Will this loneliness Ever go away Will this loneliness Never go away

Butterflies 03:19
I can feel butterflies flying Whenever I think about You (I can feel butterflies) You (flying) You (I can feel butterflies) When I think about you With ever minuet that is dying I get a little closer to You (I can feel butterflies) You (flying) You (I can feel butterflies) Closer to you But I don't need your love And I really don't care Don't want to save you from yourself Yet still when I think about you I can feel butterflies flying Flying from my heart to you And this feeling that overcomes me Hits me straight out of the Blue (I can feel butterflies) Blue (flying) Blue (I can feel butterflies) Out of the blue I can feel butterflies flying And I hope you feel them Too (I can feel butterflies) Do (flying) You (I can feel butterflies) Feel them too Whenever I think about you Those butterflies know just what to do Whenever I think about you

You're always there for me You keep me company On life's long and lonely journey It seemed I had no choice Since I first heard your sweet voice Was destined to fall for you Sat nav woman Stick with me and we'll go far Sat nav woman Be my guiding star 'Cus you ain't got no body And I ain't got nobody Nobody but you Sat nav woman You know the route to my heart Sat nav woman Our destination was love from the start Yeah, you ain't got no body But I ain't got nobody Nobody but you Now some people might call me mad Some may even say I'm sad But I ain't blue 'Cus I got you Sat nav woman Stick with me through the years Sat nav woman We'll make our way through all the gears Sat nav woman (you aint got no body) Together we'll travel so far Sat nav woman (I ain't got nobody) You're my guiding star Sat nav woman (you aint got no body) Be the queen of my heart Sat nav woman (I ain't got nobody) Love was our destination right from the start

You put your hand out to me And took me into your life Never told you before I wish I'd treated you right And when I close my eyes at night I see you Never been so far So far away from home Never thought I needed anyone Could face life alone But when I look back to Earth In my mind I see you You put your hand out to me And took me into your life Never told you before I wish I'd treated you right And when I close my eyes at night I see you And you're so far away So very far away You're just so far Far away Never felt like I'm so alive Never felt so alone Never felt like I'm so alive Never felt so alone Maybe you were the one But I let you get away Now stars fall like tears Through the Milky Way Never been so far So far away from home Never thought I needed anyone Could face life alone But when I look back to Earth In my mind I see you Never felt like I'm so alive Never felt so alone Never felt like I'm so alive Never felt so alone

Before I say goodbye Before I let you go Heaven's in your eyes Gotta let you know Heaven's in your eyes It's killing me to go Don't wanna say goodbye Just gotta let you know And one day I'll look back And remember this And one day I'll look back And will cry, cry, cry, cry Heaven's in your eyes It's killing me to go Don't wanna say goodbye Just gotta let you know Before I say goodbye God, I love you so Heaven's in your eyes Gotta let you know
