Takes Time 04:02
(Takes time shifting in your mind to move) Takes time, shifting in your mind But you know you want to move (Frame of mind knowing you’re alive to choose) Forward motion Forward motion, good intention Speak for yourself Speak for no one else Speak for the things you know Up above and down below I can see it coming now Could be days or weeks or months or years (Takes time restless in your eyes to prove) Takes time feeling that it’s right But you know you’ve got to find your truth (Knowing kind seeking soft inside with you) In time you’ll receive the signs That you know you’ll need to see it through It’s all in motion Thoughts to action Chain reaction Find your place (And I’ve had plenty of time to breathe And I’ve had plenty of time to see To see the things you can do without In heaven here there’s no doubt) Plant a seed Watch it grow Give it love Call it home Call it home Call it home Now you see it start to happen Slowly better slowly As we’ve said this takes time Takes time Shifting in your mind (to move) But you know that you can make a move Frame of mind Knowing you’re alive to choose (To fortify the things inside I plant a seed of guilt to brew) Knowing kind Seeking soft inside with you (To fortify the things inside I plant a seed of guilt to brew) Takes time shifting in your mind to move

I trust you so much It wasn’t easy To think that this love’s What I'm deserving What can I say Got love on the brain Can't seem to want anything else Got a tattoo, a little heart with your name Take me to your room, there’s no other place that I could dream to be Your love is warm, all over me And I know its pure All of what's mine is yours Yeah I know it's pure All of what's mine is yours All of what's mine is yours Hey you far side You caught my eye It's been some time You caught my eye I trust you so much It wasn't easy To think that this love’s What I'm deserving Ride bikes play pretend Will you be my best friend Ride bikes play pretend Will you be my best friend I wish I knew you In a body that I liked I wish I could do What I want I ride my bike I'm better now Better than I ever was, babe I will write a song for you and no one else I’m better now Better than I ever was, babe I will write a song for you and no one else

Laid it out, feeling strong I want the world to see me now and deep inside I long for you I like you I’ve never been afraid to If heaven is a place on earth With you I think I’d go there I like you I’ve never been afraid to If heaven is a place on earth With you I think I’d go there Taking time for myself, I’ve felt the world at its best, and deep inside I know we’re true I like you I’ve never been afraid to If heaven is a place on earth With you I think I’d go there (outro) Heaven near me

Pure 05:38
And I want it clean And I feel it’s pure And I want it more But I’m very unsure But I have the chance to give out of things I know The unlearning of me The beginning of you Endings ways we’ve been Ending things we’ve seen Finding out what it meant to be To plan a life to lead knowing I’ve been true Knowing I’ve been true Knowing I’ve been True
11.
Always There 04:10
It’s close to perfect Hitting all the lines And they see and they see all the bad things I breathe And they live and they live inside me You’re always there behind me I feel noticed I feel noticed by you I make you notice when I misbehave And you think that I’m free but I’m really guilty when I let myself down all the time You’re always there Behind me I feel noticed I feel noticed by you

For everything, for everyone For life and death and love and deeper breath For everything I know and all I don’t For this and other gestures of head and heart For everything, for everyone (Daylight break through) For every circle round the sun, you’ve done it love (Long drive with you) You’ve done it darling, you’ve done it darling (Old time further) Now you’ve really done it darling (Sunrise I know you) (Old time further Sunrise I know you) Walk on beside me, walk on beside me… Take a walk, let’s take a walk, let’s take a walk… For everything, for everyone For everything For life and death and love And deeper breath For death For life and death and love and deeper breath And deeper breath Breath (x4) For everything, for everyone For everything For life and death and love and deeper breath And deeper breath Walk on beside me *repeats till end* Breath *repeats till end*
