darren hayes - dublin sky

i´ve been a lonely strret tonight
and i don´t know what´s wrong with me
i don´t know what´s wrong with me
the clouds cover up the dublin sky
i don´t know what´s left of me
i don´t know what´s right with me
and i´ve tried to keep my distance
and i´ve sung amazing grace
but there´ll always be a trace of you
of you

i remember laughing on that river´s edge
trying to get you to jump with me
trying to get to fall for me
and your trembling heart it beat so fast
holding hands you promised me
holding hands we counted to three
and i felt your slipping fingers
and i saw you change your mind
if i hadn´t dragged you in with me
you would have let me dive without you
without you

they sent you all the way from hollywood
and maybe that dublin sky was changing you
it put diamonds in your eyes
i always thought we were going to make it through
but i wanted to hear it first from you

how many days am i going to regret you ?
how many nights till i forget you?
have i been wasting all those years?
held down by these tears ?
how many dreams have i left deserted ?
hao many hopes have been diverted ?
have i been buried in the dirt ?
held down by this hurt ?

how many loads did i let you hijack ?
how many ways can i stand here in playback ?
how did i end up lying here
crying underneath the dublin sky ?

how many days am i going to regret you ?
how many nights till i forget you ?
have i been wasting all these years?
drowning in my tears ?

darren hayes - i miss you

Give me a reason
Why I'm feeling so blue
Every time I close my eyes
All I see is you
Give me a reason
Why I can't feel my heart
Everytime you leave my side
I just fall apart
And when you're fast asleep
I wonder where you go
Can you tell me I wanna know

Because I miss you
And this is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you
Beautiful these three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you
Nothing's wrong
I don't mean to carry on

But give me a reason
Why I can't concentrate
The world is turning upside down
Spinning round and round
Now give me a reason Why
I now understand the beauty and simplicity
In everything surrounding me
You got a way of spreading magic everywhere
Anywhere I go I know you're always there
It sounds ridiculous
But when you leave a room
There's a part of me that just wants to follow you too

Because I miss you
And this is all I wanna say I guess
I miss you
Beautiful These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you
Nothing's wrong
I don't mean to carry on

It's such a hard life and most of the time
I'm just surviving
That's why I want you to know
In a world where sincerity has lost its meaning
You fill my world with so much hope

And I miss you
This is all I wanna say I guess
I miss you
Beautiful these three words have said it all

You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you
Nothing's wrong
I don't mean to carry on

You know I miss you
And this is all I wanna say I guess
I miss you
Beautiful these three words have said it all

You know I miss you
This is all I wanna do
I know it doesn't sound too cool
But maybe I'm in love with you
You know I miss you
This is all I wanna say I guess
I miss you
Nothing's wrong
I don't mean to carry on

I just miss you

Yeah It's true I miss you baby
And when you're walking out the door
I know I miss you
You make me wanna ask for more

darren hayes - like it or not

I've been broken, shut down and useless
Feet above me hands in the air
You got me falling over and over
You got me twisted tied up and tangled
I do it all for you
You know I've been a fool for you
Thought I tripped on a shoelace
I look down and it's only you

Now i'm standing at a terminal waiting to connect to another plane
If I told you I just cancelled my flight to America
Would you call me insane?
Everything i am has been neatly contained
into the contents of a Samsonite bag
Me a laptop two suitcases and I'm coming to see you
Whether you like it or not
Whether you like it or not

I've been put down
Picked up and put off
I've been held up
Pushed and shoved around
You got me falling
Over and over
I've been drifting this side and upside down
I do it all for you
You know I'd be a fool for you
I keep thinking I lost something
I look down and it's only you

And now I'm standing at a terminal waiting to connect to another plane
And if I told you I just cancelled my flight to America
Would you call me insane?
Everything i am has been neatly contained into the
contents of a Samsonite bag
Me a laptop two suitcases and I'm coming to see you
Whether you like it or not

How many forms can indecision take?
When does the warning light appear before a man breaks?
Mine is a restless heart don't try to fix it
You know sometimes, sometimes I want it to ache

Everything I am has been neatly contained into the
contents of a Samsonite bag
Me a laptop two suitcases and I'm coming to see you
And now I'm standing at a terminal waiting to connect to another plane
And if I told you I just cancelled my flight to america
Would you call me insane
Everything I am has been neatly contained into the
contents of a Samsonite bag
Me a laptop two suitcases and I'm coming to see you
Whether you like it or not

I'm coming to see you whether you're ready or not
I'm coming to feel you babe whether you like it or not
Get ready cause I'm coming to see you whether you like it or not
Coming to see you whether you like it or not
Whether you like it or not

I know I know I know I know you're gone
I can see you babe
It's too late baby
I know I know I know you're gone
It's too late babe
Ooh I know you're gone
I know I know I know I know you're gone
It's too late baby
I know I know I know you're gone
It's too late babe
Don't go

darren hayes - in your eyes

Oooh, love... I get so lost sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

And though my instincts, they return
And this grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, and without my pride
I reach out from the inside, ooh oooh

In your eyes, the light, the heat
In your eyes, I am complete
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes, the resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes, I see the light I see the heat
In your eyes, oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes

Love, I don't like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for my survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

And though my instincts, they return
And this grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, and without my pride
I reach out from the inside, ooh oooh

In your eyes, the light, the heat
In your eyes, I am complete
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes, the resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes, I see the light I see the heat
In your eyes, oh, I want to be that complete

darren hayes - nothing

Come inside stop scratchin at my door
Live inside me help me count the ways you once adored
Lovers need a place to lay their head
As a broken promise returns too late
Another sunset meets an argument
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
How did my love turn into something
That you donâ??t really want
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into
When did your eyes get so icy blue
When did you stop seeing me as a reflection of you
Take me to the place of broken dreams
Where your hope deserted or showed up late
And tore apart the love we might have made
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
How did my love turn into something
That you donâ??t really want
And we both know what youâ??re thinking
But we cut through the straight lines
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
Nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing,
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into

No more excuses for turning away
You canâ??t stop a heartache by running away
I canâ??t sit back and watch love fade to gray
Ooooh
And into nothing at all
How did our love turn into something that you donâ??t really want
And we both know what youâ??re thinking
But we cut through the straight lines
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing,
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into
Ooooh
But we cut through the straight lines
Ooooh

darren hayes - a conversation with god

We're driving
Just me and God
It's raining
It's raining hard
The windows
Are steaming up
The bridge
Engulfed by fog

The rest of
The metal bridge
It beckons
It pulls me in
I argue
I scream at God
For what he's offering

My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light on
My thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no light
How's the way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the fear
No more lingering

I'm driving
I talk to God
He's screaming
I only nod
I need to
Be where you are
The leaves and trees
Are shaking

It's raining
The bullets melt
The hunger
Of hunger itself
It's straining
The pain has
A reservoir
It keeps for itself

My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light on
My thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no light
How's the way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the fear
No more lingering

I'm falling
I'm not myself
I'm diving
I'm underneath
The hollow
A mighty ship
That steams away from here

The bubbles
The surface race
The shining
They replicate
I hear it
The Voice of God
Is laced with sarcasm
In your hands

And my thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no light
How's the way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the fear
No more lingering

My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light on

darren hayes - a fear of falling under

Deep into the water
Deep into the dark
Deep into the places
Stories have to start
Peel open the layers
Go in for the kill
Bite into the onion
Taste it for the thrill

Got a fear of falling under
Underneath the dream
A fear of going too deep
Deep beneath the seams
A fear of falling under
Underneath the spell
A fear of opportunities
Secrets I won't tell

Reach into the top hat
Reach in all alone
Reach in for a rabbit
Come up with a stone
Searching for pieces
Pieces let me hide
Discarded moments
In the junkyard of my mind

Got a fear of falling under
Underneath the dream
A fear of going too deep
Deep beneath the seams
A fear of falling under
Underneath the spell
A fear of opportunities
Secrets I won't tell

What came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what?

darren hayes - black out the sun

No
Turn off the sun
Take down the moon
For I don't need them anymore
Go
Switch off the stars
And paint the sky black
Love isn't ever coming back
There's no use in imagining a world without you
Your love was like a drug I was addicted to

'Cause there's nobody else who can hurt like you hurt me
I don't wanna be lonely
And there's no other way
There's no joy there's no meaning
Just this hollowed out feeling
Now all the love's gone
And nothing grows here
And I just feel wrong
So black out the sun
And all that we share
We'll slowly disappear
There's a hole where my soul used to grow
So just black out the sun

No
Stop all the rain
And poison the ground
Love doesn't want to hang around
Go
Turn all the fruit
Into bits of wine
It was only sweet when you were mine
There's an emptiness inside of me
Since you've been gone
All the world has lost its meaning
All my colours run

'Cause there's nobody else who can hurt like you hurt me
I don't wanna be lonely
And there's no other way
There's no joy there's no meaning
Just this hollowed out feeling
Now all the love's gone
And nothing grows here
And I just feel wrong
So black out the sun
And all that we share
We'll slowly disappear
There's a hole where my soul used to grow
So just black out the sun

Now nothing compares
How could it even dare
'Cause now that love's gone
I wanna black out the sun

'Cause there's nobody else who can hurt like you hurt me
I don't wanna be lonely
Now all the love's gone
And nothing grows here
And I just feel wrong
So black out the sun
And all that we share
We'll slowly disappear
There's a hole where my soul used to grow
So just black out the sun

darren hayes - bombs up in my face

Now everybody's beautiful
When they're young
And I should know
I've had more than my share of fun

There's all this fascination
With the impossibly thin
With the surface of things
Airbrush Photoshop creation

In all that we are losing
Aren't we just confusing
Youth with beauty?
Truth with duty?

There's something on the telly 'bout North Korea
Some war broke out don't trust the media
I'd like to get a suntan
Some dude was shot in Pakistan

The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
The track's got noddage
The track's got noddage

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

I was walking through the city
Past a phone shop and a homeless man
Was lying there looked almost dead
And no one seemed to bother

I ran into a rock and roll band
Two or three of them, maybe four
This one punk just 19 years old
He gave me his persuasion

He looked at me with his one black eye
Looked down on me like I didn't have a life
And he was right
At least not the kinda life he'd been paradin'

Same sex union (ooh!)
Change the constitution
You can carry a gun
But you better not fall in love with someone

The President who fucked the world
For every future boy and girl
Is golfing in Aruba
With a suntan and scuba

The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
Moves my boddage
Moves my boddage

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

Now everybody dies or fades away
A permutation white and grey
A synergy of light and dust
And skin cells constantly aging

You fell in love with the dream
To fuck forever endlessly
But you don't, and that's ok
The rest is better anyway

Botox bungle CNN
Infomercial count to ten
Change the channel VCR
Something's on my radar

The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
The track's got noddage

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it

They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
Don't want to talk about it

darren hayes - california

I've got a cottage with a sea view
I've got a regular summer tan
I've been working up the courage to call you all year, oh
There is nothing I can say
There are no good words left anyway
Besides, people are cruel and the world still moves without you
Ohhh

Welcome to my Californian home
You don't have to call me
You can leave when you want
There's a picture by my bed
And there's a light in your eyes
I don't know
Well, I don't know
Why you still feel alone

And we were dying from the get go
I was dreaming, but you never believed
I was trying to fit myself in the spaces between, oh
And you were kind and sometimes cruel
You said all the world's love couldn't satisfy you
And nothing could have hurt me as much as the truth
Ohhh, darling

Welcome to my Californian home
You don't have to call me
You can leave when you want
There's a picture by my bed
And there's a light in your eyes
I don't know
Tell me because I want to find out
Do you still feel alone?

Love is elusive when you search for it
Don't I know
Happiness, sometimes it just creeps in
Don't I know it
I'm going crazy
I've been wondering
Do you still feel alone?

I need to find
Some kind of peace of mind
I need to find

I've got a cottage with a sea view
I've got a regular summer tan
I know that I deserve more
But I still want you

Welcome to my Californian home
You don't have to call me
You can leave when you want
There's a picture by my bed
And there's a light in your eyes
I don't know
Tell me because I want to find out
Do you still feel...

Welcome to my California
(I need to find)
Even though I'm not good for you
(Some kind of peace of mind)
There's a part of me still waiting for you
(I need to find)
Welcome to my happy ending
(I need to find)
Even though it's fun pretending
(Some kind of peace of mind)
I know
I know you can't look back
You can never go back

Welcome to my Californian home
(I know you can never go back again)
Welcome to my Californian home
(I know you can never go back again)
Welcome to my Californian home
(I know you can never go back)
I know I need to find out
Do you still feel...

Welcome to my California
(I need to find)
Even though I'm no good for you
(Some kind of peace of mind)
Deep inside there's a piece of me
There's a piece of me
Still waiting for you to come home
Welcome to my California
(I need to find)
I know you can never look back
You can never look back again
(Some kind of peace of mind)
But tell me because I want to find out
Do you still feel alone?
Oh no
Do you still feel alone?
Oh no, no

darren hayes - can t help falling in love

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I canâ??t help falling in love with you

Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I canâ??t help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my...
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I canâ??t help falling in love with you

No I can't help falling in love with you

darren hayes - creepin up on you

Darren Hayes / Rick Nowels

Creepin' up on you is the wrong thing to do I found your address got your phone
number too Visit all the stores where you buy all your clothes Been to secret
places you think nobody knows

If I have to breathe without you Nobody should...... I need to be around you
Watchin' you

No one else can love you like I do Feel it when I'm creepin' up on you I know
that it wouldn't be right If I stayed all night Just to peek in on you Creepin'
up on you..

I been hanging round all the places you haunt Spying on your friends to find
out what you want drinking from the glass that you left on the bar Follow you
around driving home in your car....

Do I have to breathe without you? Coz nobody could I need to be around you
Watching you

No one else can love you like I do Feel it when I'm creepin' up on you I know
that it wouldn't be right If I stayed all night Just to peek in on you Creepin'
up on you..

This must be wrong It can't go on This kind of thing It's taking all my sanity
and making a mockery This must be wrong It canæ?° go on So Won't somebody free me
from this misery Bring my baby closer to me

No one else can love you like I do Feel it when I'm creepin' up on you I know
that it wouldn't be right If I stayed all night Just to peek in on you Creepin'

No one else can love you like I do Feel it when I'm creepin' up on you I know
that it wouldn't be right If I stayed all night Just to peek in on you Creepin'
up on you.
