gabriella cilmi - awkward game

Oh what my luck the game that i played
I?ll duck for cover when you call out my name
And oh la la la unravel your chain
Cause i won?t touch ya, ya burning flame

You?ve seen all of me and i know
That all the riches come and go
Theres something i need you to know

So, quit askin me, no, no more
Can?t you see,tonight i won?t fall

If you follow that same awkward game
Theres nothing to gain you will find, oh yeh
Some day i?ll explain it?s fact, i did it again yeah

When your heart skips a beat, silence be afraid
I?m loving the heat honey i got the rest of time
And i feel oh so good like i should and i know
Time is frozen, bound and brocken promises are cheap

So, quit askin me, no, no more
Can?t you see,tonight i won?t fall

If you follow that same awkward game
Theres nothing to gain you will find, oh yeh
Some day i?ll explain it?s fact, i did it again yeah

If you count all the stars you?ll find
You?ll loose all your sleep
So don?t wate all your time
Pretending you can

Well i?m taking back all that your stealin?
Cause i don?t nothing your dealin?
Sorry not sleeping i?m leaving
Memory coming back creeping

gabriella cilmi - boys

About a year ago
We were inseparable
We had a fight or two
But not to end it all

Until your boys came crashing through
They said they came to rescue you

Then they took you out
Got you really drunk
Came back to my house
Said you met the one

Some girl you made out with for fun
Now Iâ??m just looking at you stunned

Like you must have lost your mind
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
While Iâ??m at home just dying
Now you want to apologize
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
So go sleep with your boys tonight
Go sleep with your boys tonight

I tried to think if I
Was being difficult
I couldnâ??t bring myself
To shake it off

After all of the time we spent
You couldnâ??t help it one last bit

Iâ??m here on my own
Contemplating done
And if itâ??s really true
That youâ??ve met someone

I canâ??t accept apologies
What are you doing here with me?

Like you must have lost your mind
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
While Iâ??m at home just dying
Now you want to apologize
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
So go sleep with your boys tonight

Like you must have lost your mind
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
While Iâ??m at home just dying
Now you want to apologize
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
So go sleep with your boys tonight

Am I the only one thatâ??s
Crazy here for the moment
Do you realize what you just said to me
Donâ??t change your mind the morning
Got other things more important
Than just you and me

Like you must have lost your mind
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
While Iâ??m at home just dying
Now you want to apologize
Youâ??d-a laid, youâ??d-a laid
With the next girl in line
So go sleep with your boys tonight

gabriella cilmi - echo beach

I know
It's out of fashion
And a trifle uncool
But I can't help it
I'm a romantic fool
It's a habit of mine
To watch the sun go down
On Echo beach
I watch the sun go down

From nine till five
I have
To spend my time at work
The job is very boring
I'm an office clerk
The only thing that helps
Pass the time away
Is knowing I'll be back
At Echo Beach some day

On a silent summer evening
The sky's alive with light
Building in the distance
Surrealistic sight
On Echo Beach
Waves make the only sound
On Echo Beach
There's not a soul around

From nine till five
I have
To spend my time at work
The job is very boring
I'm an office clerk
The only thing that helps
Pass the time away
Is knowing I'll be back
At Echo Beach some day

Echo Beach
Far away in time
Echo Beach
Far away in time

gabriella cilmi - einstein

I?d like to think like einstein
Know the equal of pi
And never need to as why
Why, why boys don?t cry
Where we go when we die
And whats the meaning of life

Whatever the weather man?s saying we follow
Sunshine or rain
But he?ll never tell me how i feel tomorrow
Pleasure or pain

The lessons i?m learning, just leave me burning for more and more ,i lie awake hoping, jesus aint joking i?m sure, that his sure

Whatever the weather man?s saying we follow
Sunshine or rain
But he?ll never tell me how i feel tomorrow
Pleasure or pain

So tell me why the world keeps on turning, turning
And why so many people are hurting, hurting
How we traded honestly for lying, lying
Cause were only gonna make it if were trying, trying

You put a man on the moon
But you can?t save that baby
And that pains me
You?ll make a red rose turn blue
But you can?t stop us dying keep on trying

Whatever the weather man?s saying we follow
Sunshine or rain
But he?ll never tell me how i feel tomorrow
Pleasure or pain

gabriella cilmi - glue

We stuck together like glue
Through all the things that we've been through
We stuck together through things
That hurt me in so many ways

Might sound crazy, but
May need a little
..
Sometimes you can't fix at all
The service aint you
When theres no ball with you

If I come undone again
It wouldn't make sense to depend on you
If I come undone
I will never trust anything you say or do

And if I fall apart
Once you gonna glue me back together again
Just to temper every fix we know

And I come undone
I will be left in pieces on the floor

We had a ...
I saw you in a perfect ..
We've never got this far
And I know who we really are

Might sound crazy though
I'm feeling uncomfortable
Cause Im feeling ..
About something you ..
...
Sometimes we cant fix at all
The service aint you
When theres no ball with you

If I come undone again
It wouldn't make sense to depend on you
If I come undone
I will never trust anything you say or do

And if I fall apart
Once you gonna glue me back together again
Just to temper every fix we know

And if I come undone
I will be left in pieces on the floor

We stuck together like glue
Through all the things that we've been through

If I come undone again
It wouldn't make sense to depend on you
If I come undone
I will never trust anything you say or do

And if I fall apart
Once you gonna glue me back together again
Just to temper every fix we know
Every fix we know

And I come undone
I will be left in pieces on the floor

gabriella cilmi - got no place to go

Fuel can take a minute to light
Wonderland aint built in a night
Two can burn a bridge in a day
Now one of us is walking away
Don?t believe the stories your told
Not everything that glitters is gold
Love is just a word that we say
Now one of us is walking away ? away ? away

And i, i got no place to go
Yeah i hate it when i am feeling cold
Only get it when im feeling low
Way back then my soul brother was my home
Theres a caterpillar in my soul
S?what you get when you don?t get no

Honeys only sweet as the bee
Who only ever takes what he needs
And deserts need the sun and the rain
Coz pleasure only comes after pain
Fuel can take a minute to light
Wonderland aint built in a night
Two can burn a bridge in a day
When one of us is walking away ? away - away

And i, i got no place to go
Yeah i hate it when i am feeling cold
Only get it when im feeling low
Way back then my soul brother was my home
Theres a caterpillar in my soul
S?what you get when you don?t get no

And i, i got no place to go
Yeah i hate it when i am feeling cold
Only get it when im feeling low
Way back then my soul brother was my home
Theres a caterpillar in my soul
S?what you get when you don?t get no

Ooh stop, im breakin ? breakin up
Ohh too hot, baby had enough

And i, i got no place to go
Yeah i hate it when i am feeling cold
Only get it when im feeling low
Way back then my soul brother was my home
Theres a caterpillar in my soul
Its what you get when you don?t get no

gabriella cilmi - invisible girl

Iâ??m about to lose control
Cause you can be so tricky to love
When you got your boys around
You talking shit
Playing it tough

You tell me everyday that what we got is special
But Iâ??m not so sure
Cause Iâ??m not gonna be your dirty little secret now
I need more

You got me spinning around, running me down
Keeping me at the back of the queue
You know that you do
And now wherever I go, nobody knows
That I am theone you come running to
They donâ??t have a clue

Well is this forever
Are we together
Am I a part of ya world
Cause I can take whatever
But I will never
Be your invisible girl
Invisible girl

Iâ??m never been a diva
But I wonâ??t settle for second best
And all Iâ??m asking
Is for you to give a little respect

Donâ??t get me wrong
Iâ??m not expecting you to suffer
You can have some fun
But if you keep pretending Iâ??m not in the room
Then youâ??ll be my minus one

You got me spinning around, running me down
Keeping me at the back of the queue
You know that you do
And now wherever I go, nobody knows
That I am the one you come running to
They donâ??t have a clue

Well is this forever
Are we together
Am I a part of ya world
Cause I can take whatever
But I will never
Be your invisible girl
Invisible girl

Itâ??s so easy when weâ??re alone together
Could it be this way forever?
Or are you just playing with my heart?

You got me spinning around, running me down
Keeping me at the back of the queue
You know that you do
And now wherever I go, nobody knows
That I am the one you come running to
They donâ??t have a clue

Well is this forever
Are we together
Am I a part of ya world
Cause I can take whatever
But I will never
Be your invisible girl
Invisible girl

gabriella cilmi - love me cos you want to

I'm not gonna try to read your mind
But I think you should know
I won't fall apart
I'll be just fine
If you need to go

I'm not a fool
I can see it in your eyes
Don't laugh
Don't be cruel
And don't patronize

Just love me cos you want to
And not because you wanna be kind
Give me something to hold on to
Cos they're the ones who're wasting our time
And now the rest is up to you
Love me cos you want to

And if our time is up then it's OK
I'll move right along
You can try to bring back yesterday
But the feeling is gone

I'm not a fool
There's nowhere to hide
So play by the rules
And droplets of skies

Just love me cos you want to
And not because you wanna be kind
Give me something to hold on to
Cos they're the ones who're wasting our time
And now the rest is up to you
Love me cos you want to

Getting colder
Like the weather
Will you be there
When the lights go out
Wanna hold ya
Make ya better
But the rain just keeps on falling down

Just love me cos you want to
And not because you wanna be kind
Give me something to hold on to
Cos they're the ones who're wasting our time
And now the rest is up to you

Love me cos you want to
And not because you wanna be kind
Give me something to hold on to
Cos they're the ones who're wasting our time
And now the rest is up to you
Love me cos you want to

To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind
To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind
To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind
To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind
To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind

gabriella cilmi - magic carpet ride

They say love has many faces
And takes your head to other places
Open up your heart
Give your life a chance to start moving

On a magic carpet ride
We can find a place where there is no time
On a magic carpet ride
We can touch the sky
Like a bird we'll fly
There's no end to what we'll do
Me and you

We could live inside a flower
A hundred years could last an hour
Sailing nowhere
Looking for rainbows and moving

On a magic carpet ride
We can find a place where there is no time
On a magic carpet ride
We can touch the sky
Baby you and I
There's no end to what we'll do
Me and you

Sailing nowhere
Looking for rainbows and moving

On a magic carpet ride
We can find a place where there is no time
On a magic carpet ride
We can touch the sky
You and I
There's no end to what we'll do
Baby

On a magic carpet ride
We can find a place where there is no time
