Lyrics - "Unbreakable"

Track Name Lyrics
Unbreakable It started off small in that simple way
We were nervous friends, then one day
I took a deep breath and I opened my heart

I didn’t know that you felt the same
You looked in my eyes, said my name
Unbreakable. We said that we’d never part

Chorus: I can smell you on my pillow
I push my face into its depth
You’re not there but I inhale you
My neck still tingles with your breath
And just when I thought there’s nothing better than this
You were gone and all you left, was one last kiss
One last kiss

Such intense feelings could not be faked
I loved you so much, my body ached
I don’t know when you changed, we were great for years

No other emotions feel that strong
The pain of realising I was wrong
Unbreakable. I’m left with silence and tears.

Chorus
 
Bring Me Down Chorus: We honeymooned in Vegas
But divorced in a tired northern town
We danced our way to dizzy heights
I thought we’d never come down
You said we’d be forever
You’re not gonna bring me down

I was dreaming in a coffee queue
I felt a tap upon my shoulder
You pierced me with your crystal eyes
And said you thought you’d come on over
Then you kissed me then and there
Long and slowly on my lips
You just touched me then and there
With electric finger tips

Much more destructive than a whirlwind
You brought such momentum to my life
Upside down and inside out
My sense of reason was under fire
All I did was follow you
Quit my friends and quit my job
And I would have followed you
Forever ‘til my heart stopped

You told me I was your oxygen
You needed to breathe me everyday
And somehow we got married
You suffocated me anyway
All I did was give to you
You said I could never leave
I gave all I had to you
You were happy to receive
 
Turn Around I was insensitive and crass
I was a big pain in the ass
I cannot let this pass /As an ending
The electricity has tripped
The wings of all my dreams are clipped
Two fragile hearts now chipped
We need mending

Chorus: Please put the door keys down
Turn around, turn around
You’re shrugging me away
Will you stay? Will you stay?
You’re stubborn and you’re proud
Turn around, turn around

So while the superglue won’t fix it
It doesn’t mean we should ditch it
How else can I pitch it?/Please don’t leave me
Sometimes I don’t engage my brain
Yes, I forgot to think again
Once more I caused you pain
And it grieves me

The love still lurks in there I know
I feel the faintest little glow
Without you it will go/Flame extinguished
Can you bear to sit next to me?
Look into my eyes not through me
All I want is you, do you see
My one true wish
 
I Miss You The rain’s assaulting the roof tops
It’s not that keeping me awake
Sleep’s a forgotten privilege
More time to dwell on my mistake
Living a ghost-like existence
Questions haunt me: How? When? Why?
Finding no answers, no relief
No comfort. I’ve cried myself dry.

Could I have known
How it would all turn out?
That it would be the last time I saw you?

Chorus: I miss you. Please come back
I miss you. I can’t breathe
I miss you. Please come back
I miss you. Let me live.

Day break brings a glimpse of sunshine
No chance of it reaching this heart
All of me hurts. The pain’s too much
I picture your face in the dark
And I imagine holding you
Remember how we’d talk all night
The love we made as the sun rose
I was wrong to think it was right.

I should have seen how it would all turn out
And kept tight hold of you – you might have stayed.
 
Renewal High tide at Earnsie bay
All cobwebs blown away
Renewed head
Recharged heart
Yes I’m alone again
Funny but I feel no pain
Even though we’re apart

Relentless wind, all day
Like you always have your way
But I still have mine
We meet in the middle
Somehow we always do
Parity works every time

Chorus:

I left the house empty
It doesn’t get to me
I do not feel alone
My side of the bed’s cold
It’s your pillow I hold
Until you come back home
Not taken for granted
The trust is implanted
There are no questions asked
You still speak your own voice
You still make your own choice
And you always come back

The clean air reminds me
We both share the same sky
As I drink it all in
Each time that you move on
It’s not a conclusion
It’s where the next bit begins
 
Out of Reach A woman out of reach
Running wild, feral, free
Bright eyes blazing
She screams
“I dare you to tame me”

Passionate heart, cool head
Fast white knuckle ride
None could ever cage her
How many fools have tried?

Shouting into the wind
Her life lived to the bite
Unextinguishable
Electric northern light

Where is this spirit from?
A cyclone spinning through
Demolishing my life
Where is she going to?

I want her to slow down
I want her to stand still
To actually see me
I know she never will

But my soul’s not that cruel
Clip her wings, make her stay
I’ll hide in the darkness
And watch her dance away
 
Happy You’re constantly in my mind
My concentration invaded
I replay the things you whisper
And re-live the love we made

It’s full of complication
What I feel is simple and strong
Too many people stand to hurt
How can we be happy when this is so wrong?

Chorus: I want you to be happy
But I need to be happy too
And the truth is I’m not sure
If that is something we can do

So I hurt because I want you
Too many terms and conditions
It gets so convoluted
And I ask you if it’s worth it

Then we get some time together
The rest of the world suspended
What we say and do, the way we move
Makes it impossible to end it
 
To Whom It May Concern Chorus: Wish it you can have it
Careful what you send out
We’re still here despite you
It returns come what may
What did you give out today?
It’ll come back and bite you

All the bitter remarks/And the made up stories
Assumptions, delusions
They attempted hijack
But we always bounced back
We made the conclusion

We have shared a decade/The choices we made
Brought us all that we know
Through the bad stuff we coped
We’ve got more than we hoped
Now we are two plus one
 
Respect For You Respect for you
Have some respect for you
Respect for you
Have some respect for you

You’re a fallow freak
Waiting for your turn
Your turn will come soon
Don’t give up on hope
It can’t stifle you
Your turn will come soon

Respect for you
Have some respect for you
Respect for you
Have some respect for you

It’s all there within
Allow it to shine
Your turn will come soon
You need to love you
Be kind for a change
Your turn is here now

Maybe you’ll see
You’ve got respect from me
 
Thank You Thank you for caring about me
And giving me the love that I need
Thank you for the chance to prove
To show what I’m feeling is honest and true

Chorus: Your love it lights up the way
Even on my darkest day
You take the grey skies and turn them to blue
Oh if you only knew
Thank you

Thank you for caring about me
When my life was in disarray
Thank you for not giving up
And saying I’ve had enough and walking away
 
3 Big Words I love you, I love you, I love you.
What other way can I say it?
I love you, I love you, I love you.
I’ll record it so you can replay it.

I love you, I love you, I love you.
I know I’m repeating myself.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
Like I have never loved anyone else.

I love you, I love you, I love you.
In spite of troubles big or small.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
My big love for you will outlast them all.

I love you, I love you, I love you.
Three little words that simply fit.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
I’ll be happy if you love me a bit.

I love you, I love you, I love you.
A measurement cannot be applied.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
But the feeling is deep as it is wide.

I love you, I love you, I love you.
The needle on the record is stuck.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
If I was clever I’d write a book.

I love you, I love you, I love you.
How can I show you I mean it?
I love you, I love you, I love you.
I’d do a dye test so you could see it.
