STRANGER
You come to bed when I'm waking
You're standing still and I'm shaking
Can't feel the love that we're making
Your eyes are dry when I'm crying
Don't you dare say I'm not trying
I'm anchored, you're flying
Say that you'll come back to me
Or say that we're through
'Cause I can't keep loving a stranger
No, I can't keep loving a stranger
And neither can you
You're cold as ice, I'm on fire
But this heat isn't desire
I love you, but I'm tired
Baby where to go from here
Baby where to go from here
Say that you'll come back to me
Or say that we're through
'Cause I can't keep loving a stranger
No, I can't keep loving a stranger
I can't keep loving a stranger
Boy, we know that much is clear
I can't keep loving a stranger
So baby where do we go from here?
Baby where to go from here
Say that you'll come back to me
Or say that we're through
'Cause I can't keep loving a stranger
No, I can't keep loving a stranger
But I do
Baby, I do

Fool Me Twice

FOOL ME TWICE
Still can't believe you hurt me
Still can't quite react
Am I a fool to leave you?
Am I a fool to take you back?
Still believe in second chances
Though that's easy to say
Over the lingering fear that you'll hurt me again someday
They say let past be past
And that's good advice
But shame on me
If I let you fool me twice
I'm caught in the crossfire
Of my suspicious mind
And my forgiving heart
Which one makes me blind?
'Cause it's hard to tell the difference
When you're all caught up
Between cautious optimism
And blind, blind love
They say let past be past
And that's good advice
But shame on me
If I let you fool me twice
Is it weakness to stay?
Is it weakness to run?
Forgiveness is a fickle thing when you're in love
Forgiveness is a fickle thing
They say let past be past
Oh, wouldn't it be nice?
But shame on me if I let you fool me
Shame on me if I let you fool me
Shame on me
If I let you fool me twice

High Horse

HIGH HORSE
I have been wondering
If I ever really closed the door
If that spot will ever not be sore
If it'll ever be like, ever be like before
You said your apologies
But I never had my fill
You made your peace with me
But I'm punishing you still
From my high horse
Not sure what's worse
How long can this go on
Before I am the one that's wrong
Maybe you've noticed
The sharpness in my tone
Daggered glances I have thrown
How distant I have, distant I have grown
I confess I can't forget
And I probably never will
But you have paid your debt
And yet I'm punishing you still
From my high horse
Not sure what's worse
How long can this go on
Before I am the one that's wrong
I am discovering
That the root of my resistance
And this half-hearted existence
Is simply my insistence
That it's you who did me wrong
I am perched up on this high horse
Sanctimonious, head strong
But I am discovering
Mercy is a humble song
It's taken me so long
'Cause mercy is a humble song
It's taken me so long

RETURN
Icicles like daggers
Now dew drops on my skin
We found a way through thick
We found a way through thin
Hands were cold as marble
Tasted by frostbite
Now I think I'm finally
Coming back to life
Birdsong in the branches
Flowers on the tree
I return to you
And you to me
Couldn't tell the day from night
Couldn't clench my fists to fight
There was nothing I could do
So I laid down beside you
I laid down beside you in the snow
Waiting for the first warm winds to blow
Hearts in hibernation
Almost frozen through
You can't change the weather
But it might change you
Birdsong in the branches
Flowers on the tree
I return to you
And you to me
Sun on the horizon
Across the open sea
I return to you
And you to me
