brooke fraser - hosea s wife
I just spoke silence with the seeker next to me
She had a heart with hesitant, halting speech
That turned to mine and asked belligerently
"What do I live for?"
I see the scars of searches everywhere I go
From hearts to wars to literature to radio
There's a question like a shame no one will show
"What do I live for?"
We are Hosea's wife
We are squandering this life
Using people like ladders and words like knives
CHORUS
If we've eyes to see
If we've ears to hear
To find it in our hearts and mouths
The word that saves is near
Shed that shallow skin
Come and live again
Leave all you were before
To believe is to begin
There is truth in little corners of our lives
There are hints of it in songs and children's eyes
It's familiar, like an ancient lullaby
What do I live for?
We are Hosea's wife
We are squandering this life
Using bodies like money and truth like lies
CHORUS
Bridge
We are more than dust
That means something
That means something
We are more than just
Blood and emotions
Inklings and notions
Atoms on oceans

brooke fraser - hosanna
I see the king of glory
Coming down the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes
I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing, the people sing
Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest
I see a generation
Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a new revival
Staring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart for what is yours
Everything I am for your kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity
brooke fraser - crows and locusts
It was the year
The crows and the locusts came
The fields drained dry the rain
The fields are bleeding
"Daddy don't cry, it'll be alright"
She puts some water on the wound
And hums a little tune
While her courage puddles on the ground
Pooling, pooling
See the murder and the swarm descend
And the night is getting thick
The moon telling her tricks
She'd betray her every time
It was the year
The crows and the locusts came
The fields drained dry the rain
The fields are bleeding
It was the age
The foxes came for the fields
We were bleeding as we bowed to kneel
And prayed for mercy, prayed for mercy
The rumble is low and the heat is high
Got a feeling that there's rain out in the oil black sky
Gonna chase away the devil when that sun does rise
Gonna plead the blood
Gonna plead the blood
It was the year
The crows and the locusts came
The fields drained dry the rain
The fields are bleeding
It was the age
The foxes came for the fields
We were bleeding as we bowed to kneel
And prayed for mercy, prayed for mercy
She limps on up to the top of a mount
Looks at the faltered harvest
Feels her sweat in the ground and the burn in her nose
And the knowing in her guts
Something's still gonna grow
She ain't leaving 'till it does.
What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood...
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood...
brooke fraser - scarlet
Middle of nowhere
Finally you can breathe
Nobody knows your name
It's easier
Shut your eyes tightly
Clench your fists 'til they almost bleed
Cautiously, lightly
Gently expose what's underneath
And all you feel now
Is the scarlet in your day
Even it's real
You can't stay...
[Chorus]
So there you go
You're gone for good
There you go
You're gone for good
Your mind is swollen
From months of thought without release
They've taken their toll on you
This very moment
Of timis and fragile honesty
Is precious and rare and fleeting
And all you feel now
Is the scarlet in your day
Even it's real
You can't stay...
[Chorus x2]
brooke fraser - last to leave
Find it out
Yell it louder
Run about the room
Everything
Comes out eventually
Start your preparation soon
[Chorus]
Come today
Pack up all your things
And go?
And go?
Don?t need you now
I never did
He pointed that out to me
Follow the ground
Of imperfections purged
You won?t be the last to leave
Come today
And pack up all your things
And go?
And go?
[Music]
Come today
And pack up all your things
Come today
And pack up all your things
And go?
And go?
Go?
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah?
Oh oh yeah?
Don?t need you now
I never did
He pointed that out to me
brooke fraser - deciphering me
Friend, it's getting late, we should be going
We´ve been sat here beneath these flickering neons for hours.
While I am cracking their code, you are deciphering me
For I am a mystery, I am a locked room in a tall tower.
Oh can you feel the gravity falling, calling us home?
Oh did you see the stars colliding? Shining just to show,
We belong.
We belong.
Your telescope eyes see everything clearly
My vision is blurred but I know what I herd
Echoing all around.
Well I am tuning you in, you are deciphering me.
Not such a mystery, not such a faint and far away sound.
Oh can you feel the gravity falling? Calling us home?
Oh did you see the stars colliding? Shining just to show,
We belong.
We belong.
Its love, its love that holds us
We will be alright
Its truth, its truth that shows us
As we walk in this life.
Its love, its love that holds us
We will be alright
Its truth, its truth that shows us
As we walk in this life.
Oh can you feel the gravity falling? Calling us home?
Oh did you see the stars colliding? Shining just to show,
We belong.
Oh can you feel the gravity falling? Calling us home?
Oh did you see the stars colliding? Shining just to show,
We belong.
Oh can you feel the gravity falling? Calling us home?
Oh did you see the stars colliding? Shining just to show,
We belong.
brooke fraser - ice on her lashes
The lone woman stands in the turning December
She's got ice on her lashes
White art her winter coat
The trees stand like soldiers around her
Dutiful wooden curves
And the heart she feared frozen
Still beats and still marches on
Oh Annie
I will think of you each time I see the sun
Didn't want a day without you
But somehow I've lived through another one
A gentlemen waits on a platform in a haze of gray and grief
Now he's sold up his assets, starting over at 70
The steam blasts like trumpets around him
Salutes on the collonade
As he thinks to himself:
"We're all waiting for our train to come"
Oh Annie
I will think of you each time I see the sun
Didn't want a year without you
But somehow I've lived through another one
Did you find it hard to breathe at first?
While you ended it in disbelief and how much it hurt
Now the ache's still burning, but the world's still turning
Isn't it?
Oh Annie
I still think of you each time I see the sun
Didn't want a life without you
But here I am living one
brooke fraser - seeds
Night
Field of stars above us
You pick one
We frame it with our fingers intertwined
Seeds of every generation
Between our hands
And the promise to teach you the little I have learned
So far
CHORUS
Child
What will you live to do?
What have I left for you?
What will we leave behind?
You
Learning as you're growing
Not yet knowing
The world isn't always quite as beautiful
As it is now
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL
Night
Field of stars above us
I pick one and name it for you
And all who are to come
brooke fraser - love where is your fire
Love, where is your fire?
I've been sitting here smoking away
Making signals with sticks and odd ends and bits
But still there's no sign of a flame
Imposters have been passing
Offering a good-feeling glow
But I'm holding out for what you are about
An inferno that burns to the bone
Some urge me to be temperate
Lukewarm will never do
CHORUS
`Cos I, I wanna blaze with you
So I'm holding my heart out to you
Holding my heart out
So I stand, handing out torches
Speaking words that are lamps to their feet
`Til the time when you come and I'm whole and we are one
And the fire in me is complete
Some tell me to be moderate
But lukewarm will never do
CHORUS
Now I, I know I'll blaze with you
So I'm holding my heart out to you
Holding my heart out
Bridge
Then a doubt comes to lie at the back of my mind
That I'll offer you me and you'll politely decline
So I hasten to mute it
I'll shout and rebuke it
Away

brooke fraser - without you
The sky opens up over me and you
And you don't seem to mind that we're soaked through
You kiss me in the rain, I forget what I'm moaning out loud
And I know I wouldn't be the same without you
[Chorus]
I wouldn't be the same without you
I wouldn't be the same without you
I laugh at my own jokes and what I deem to be clever wit
And you don't seem to mind that I'm so stupid
You kiss me once again, I forget what I'm babbling about
And I know I wouldn't be the same without you
[Chorus]
I couldn't replicate your touch or love anyone again this much
But I wouldn't be the same without you
I wouldn't be the same
I wouldn't be the same
I wouldn't be the same without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
brooke fraser - pliable
This carnival sometimes,(?)
has sinister intentions.
only your intervention can save me now.
You have to have balls nowadays
Not to give in to temptation
These regular revelations from you
Show me how
I'm workin' to be pliable
Take me in your hands and mould me
I am yours
That's undeniable
But I am weak so take me in
And hold me
All these worldly things
That I can't even touch
Everyone else is grabbin' them
And enjoyin' them so much
To resist them
Takes more than my might
So through your strength
Oh heal me tonight
I'm workin' to be pliable
Take me in your hands and mould me
I am yours
That's undeniable
But I am weak so take me in
And hold me
I'm workin' to be pliable
Take me in your hands and mould me
I am yours
That's undeniable
But I am weak so take me in
But I am weak so take me in
And hold me
brooke fraser - lifeline
I have this sinking feeling
Something's weighing me down
I am completely saturated
The waves are crashing closer
My feet already drowned
Doing the thing I said I hated
They've been swimming in the wrong water
Now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know that you'll lift me out
[Chorus]
Have your way here
Keep me afloat 'cos I know I'll sink without you
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline
Wake up feeling convicted
I know something's not right
Re-acquaint my knees with the carpet
I have to get this out
'Cos it's obstructing you and I
Dry up the seas that keep us parted
'Cos they've been swimming in the wrong waters
And now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know that you are gonna pull me out
[Chorus]
They've been swimming in the wrong waters
And now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know, 'cos I know
[Chorus]
brooke fraser - saving the world
Didn't I tell you everything's fine?
If there's a good and bad we're somewhere in between
Often I feel like we're all navigating blind
Could we get a change of pace to set the scene
We could stay another day in this confusion
Let it permeate us 'till we can't on
[Chorus]
But while we're waiting we could try saving the world
Or are we storing that up for a raining day?
I'm anticipating the time when it'll be my turn
It could be fun to try
I think that I'll save the world as a fun afternoon activity
Seventy thousand things to ponder today
Most significant are bottom of the list
Forty five million recipes and ways
To exaggerate and compound the stress
We could stay another day in this apathy
Let it permeate us 'till we're numb through
[Chorus]
Ooh............
[Chorus x2]
brooke fraser - betty
You got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
You got your YSL kicks and a red birthmark
In the shape of Canada
That you try to keep a secret
You got a quick clack walk and a cold hard stare
And if your eyes could talk they?d say they just don?t care
Before they wander off
To hide inside their sockets
Chorus:
You?ve got your scars and you?ve got your birthmarks
You?ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You?ve got your secrets
You?ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do
You got a fool-proof plan for a lonely life
You won?t be no one?s daughter and no drunk man?s wife
If a wife at all
It?s a silly institution
Or so you keep insisting
Chorus
You?re cool coy, ?bout to stroll, very hip
It?s you that?s hidden by the expectations
We want to see you, won?t you show us where to start?
You?re talking trash with your red liquor lips
It?s you that tickle in the conversation
Sweet Betty, won?t you show us who you are?
Chorus
You've got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
brooke fraser - something in the water
I wear a demeanor made of bright pretty things
What she wears, what she wears, what she wears
Birds singing on my shoulder
In harmony it seems
How they sing, how they sing, how they sing
(pre-chorus 1)
Give me nights of solitude
Red wine, just a glass or two
reclined in a hammock on a balmy evening
I'll pretend that it's no thing
That's skipping my heart when I think
Of you thinking of me, babe,
I'm crazy over you
(chorus 1)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
There's something in the water
Something in the water
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
There's something in the water
That makes me love you like
(verse 2)
I've got halos made of summer, ribbons made of spring
What she wears, what she wears, what she wears
I got crowns of words a woven each one a song to sing
Each one a song to sing
Oh I sing, oh I sing, oh I sing
(pre-chorus 2)
Give me long days in the sun
Preludes to the nights to come
Previews of the mornings laying in all lazy
Give me something fun to do
Like a life of loving you
Kiss me quick now babe
I'm still crazy over you
(chorus 2)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
There's something in the water
Something in the water
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
There's something in the water
That makes me love you like I do
(pre-chorus 3)
Give me nights of solitude
Red wine, just a glass or two
Give me something fun to do
