VERSE 1: I know that I'm running out of time, I can see deep within your eyes. I know that I'm running out of time, Please tell me the reason why. I know that I'm running out of time, Your frozen lips, unloving kiss. I know that I'm running out of time, Is this the end and our fate? PRE CHORUS: I can't tell, Your so hard, To read I'm falling, Under your spell, oh well.... CHORUS: I don't mind, I will find, What you need deep inside, I am free, honestly. To be who I want to be. Who I wanna to be, who I wanna to be. TAG: I know that I'm running out of time, I can see deep within your eyes. VERSE 2: I know that I'm running out of time, I can see deep within your eyes. I know that I'm running out of time, Please tell me the reason why! PRE CHORUS: I want you so please understand, Life's too short and I can't change who I am. CHORUS: I don't mind, I will find, What you need deep inside, I am free, honestly. To be who I want to be. X2 Who I wanna be, who I wanna be... TAG/ ENGING: I know that I'm running out of time, I can see deep within your eyes. X2

VERSE 1: I just wanna be with you I see you on the corner I see you in my bedroom. I give you all of my money Just for a little taste of your honey. CHORUS: And I know that you'll leave Soon as the sun breaks And I know that you'll leave Soon as the moon sets. X2 VERSE 2: Why this line of work Can't you find some light amongst the dirt? The streets are cold, dark and rotten I wanna keep you warm Make sure your not forgotten. CHORUS: And I know that you'll leave Soon as the sun breaks And I know that you'll leave Soon as the moon sets. X2

VERSE 1: Leaning tree Oh why do you lean on me? Leaning tree What more can you ask of me? Leaning tree The heavens above me Leaning tree your weight pushes me down The earth beneath my feet just falls way Leaning tree Oh why do you lean on me? Leaning tree What more can you ask of me, leaning tree? Leaning tree Why have you chosen me, please can you answer me? Leaning tree your roots have a hold on me They're pulling me, pulling me. BRIDGE: I'm gonna fight this, I will cut you down, Take your branches with me to another part of town Make a fire, set your branches alight and watch them roar As the flames rise, higher, higher, higher I am running away, further, further, further From a life, from a death, from this fire. VERSE 2: Leaning tree Oh why do you lean on me? Leaning tree What more can you ask of me, leaning tree? Leaning tree The heavens above me Leaning tree your weight pushes me down The earth beneath my feet just falls way. BRIDGE: I'm gonna fight this, I will cut you down, Take your branches with me to another part of town Make a fire, set your branches alight and watch them roar As the flames rise, higher, higher, higher I am running away, further, further, further From a life, from a death, from this fire. ENDING: Leaning tree Oh why do you lean on me? Leaning tree What more can you ask of me, leaning tree?

Now I Realise 03:34
lyrics

VERSE 1: I once thought I was running a way from you, But now I realise. I once thought I was running a way from you, But now I realise. I was running away from myself, In disguise. CHORUS: I don't mind but I'm running out of time, Running out of time waiting here. Can't you see, what you want from me, Is far beyond your reach, Your reach. VERSE 2: I once thought I could learn a lot from you, But now I realise. All the lessons I already knew Deep inside. VERSE 3: I once thought dreams of love, our memories too, But now I realise. Lust was my only truth, Your naked thoughts weren't mine. CHORUS: I don't mind but I'm running out of time, I'm running out of time waiting here. Can't you see, what you want from me, Is far beyond your reach? X2 Your reason.
