1. A GOOD DAY FOR LOVE TO DIE
Seen the change watching it fade
Holding my breath feeling it fail
Working hard wondering why
Can't fix it now so why even try
We've run out of time
It's over I'm over this life
I'm running dry
I'm out of here out of your life
It's a good day for resurrection
It's a good time to break the connection
To the heart that I've been neglecting
It's a good day for love for love to die
Not easy to say harder to do
But that's no kinda life so I'll leave it to you
Working it hard wondering why
Can't fix it now so why even try
We've run out of time
It's over, I'm over this life
I'm running dry
I'm out of here out of your life
It's a good day for resurrection
It's a good time to break the connection
To the heart that I've been neglecting
It's a good day for love for love to die
There's not a chance, there's not a prayer
Can't pull a miracle out of the air
So now I'm leaving letting it lie
Letting it die
We've run out of time
Its over I'm over this life
I'm running dry
I'm out of here out of your life
It's a good day for resurrection
It's a good time to break the connection
To the heart that I've been neglecting
It's a good day for love for love to die
For love to die
For love to die
For love to die
For love to die
It's a good day for love, for love to die
For love to die

2. REPLACE YOUR HEART
You know I never want to hurt you
I don't know why I'd ever want to
Oh oh oh
There's no comfort in another face
So are you gonna let it go to waste
Oh oh oh
I keep on tryin'
But how can I buy in
When they don't compare to you
No oh
I'm running out of patience
Tired of imitations
Looking for someone to
Replace your heart
Everyone I talk to
Is just another not you
Makes me wonder
How we're so far apart
I'm tired of imitations
Running out of patience
Tryin' to replace
Replace your heart
Must be crazy if I let you go
You were everything I need to know
Come back home
Feel like I'm dying
Cause I keep on finding
Every junction leads to here
And I'm lost
I'm running out of patience
Tired of imitations
Looking for someone to
Replace your heart
Everyone I talk to
Is just another not you
Makes me wonder
How we're so far apart
I'm tired of imitations
Running out of patience
Tryin' to replace
Replace your heart
Everywhere I turn
Is the wrong direction
Everyone I see is the wrong reflection
Reminding me that I just
Can't replace your heart
I'm running out of patience
Tired of imitations
Looking for someone to
Replace your heart
Everyone I talk to
Is just another not you
Makes me wonder
How we're so far apart
I'm tired of imitations
Running out of patience
Tryin' to replace
Replace your heart
I've been through the crowds
Call your name out loud
But there's still no way to
Replace you
I've looked everywhere
Everywhere everywhere
To replace your heart
To replace your heart

3. WHERE I BELONG
I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
where I belong
being down not out
being lost not found
no words, no sound on this lonely track
the wind can roll, the storm can rage
it's all the same I'm not turning back
over night things can change, always
I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
where I belong
dusty tracks kicking on and on
not a coin to my name
Just finding a place
where I belong
no chains to break
no walls to climb
just space and time waiting for me
no peers?, no fears, no shame, no pride
just stars to guide where I need to be
over night things can change, always
I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
where I belong
dusty tracks kicking off and on
not a coin to my name
Just finding a place
where I belong
where I belong
where I belong
I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
dusty tracks kicking off and on
not a coin to my name
Just finding a place
where I belong
I'm on my own (where I belong) and the road is long (where I belong)
I'll do what it takes (where I belong)
Just finding a place (where I belong)
dusty tracks (where I belong) kicking off and on (where I belong)
not a coin to my name (where I belong)
Just finding a place
Where I belong

4. HEART VACANCY
I hear your heart cry for love,
But you won’t let me make it right.
You were hurt, but I decided,
That you were worth the fight.
Every night, you lock up,
You won’t let me come inside.
But the look in your eyes,
As I can turn the tide.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
I can tell you can fit one more.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
I don’t care who was there before.
I hear your heart cry for love,
Then you act like there’s no room.
Room for me, or anyone,
'Don’t disturb' is all I see.
Close the door, turn the key,
On everything that we could be.
If loneliness would move out,
I’d fill the vacancy.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart.
This ain’t the Heartbreak Hotel,
Even though I know it well.
Those no shows, they sure tell,
In the way you hold yourself.
Don’t you fret, should you get,
Another cancellation.
Give me a chance I’d make a,
Permanent reservation.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
I can tell you can fit one more.
Open up make a brand new start,
I don’t care who’s stayed before.
I hear your heart cry for love,
Then you act like there’s no room.
Room for me, or anyone,
“Don’t disturb” is all I see.
Close the door, turn the key,
On everything that we could be.
If loneliness would move out,
I’d fill the vacancy.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart.
When I, talk to you, on the phone,
you, listen close.
I hear your heart cry for love,
Then you act like there’s no room.
Room for me, or anyone,
“Don’t disturb” is all I see.
Close the door, turn the key,
On everything that we could be.
If loneliness would move out,
I’d fill the vacancy.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart.

5. CHASING THE SUN
I'm better
So much better now
I see the light, touch the light,
We're together now
I'm better
So much better now
Look to the skies, gives me life
We're together now
We've only just begun
Hypnotised by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
(repeat)
Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
So let's go, do it again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun
I'm never
I'm never down
Lying here, staring up
And you're looking down
I'm never
I'm never down
Live forever, forever
With you around
We've only just begun
Hypnotised by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
(repeat)
Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
So let's go, do it again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming, and
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun

6. GLAD YOU CAME
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came.
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see, you and me.
Turn the lights out now,now I'll take you by the hand,
Hand you another drink,drink it if you can,
Can you spend a little time,time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,stay with me,I can make,
Make you glad you came.
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came,I'm glad you came.
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now,now I'll take you by the hand,
Hand you another drink,drink it if you can,
Can you spend a little time,time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,stay with me,I can make,
Make you glad you came.
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came,I'm glad you came.

I'm glad you came
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,

7. ALL TIME LOW
[Songwriters: Drewett, Edward James; Hector, Wayne Anthony; Mac, Steve;]
Praying won't do it
Hating won't do it
Drinking won't do it
Fighting won't knock you out of my head
Hiding won't hide it
Smiling won't hide it
Like I ain't tried it
Everyone's tried it now and failed somehow
So when you gonna let me
When you gonna let me out, out?
And if you know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I'm in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I'll never know
How do you get out, get out?
'Cause driving won't do it
Flying won't do it
Denying won't do it
Crying won't drown it out, what you said
When I'm standing on the yellow line, waiting at the station
Or I'm late for work, a vital presentation
If you call me now girl without reservation
I would try to break through
But if you know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I'm in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I can't even find a place to start
How do I choose between my head and heart?
'Til it ceases, I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
Can you hear me?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
Can't you hear me?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
Can you hear me?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
And if you know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I'm in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I can't even find a place to start
How do I choose between my head and heart
'Til it ceases, I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I can't even find a place to start
How do I choose between my head and heart
'Til it ceases, I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?

8. GOLD FOR EVER
Say my name like it's the last time,
Live today like its your last night,
We want to cry but we know its alright,
Cause I'm with you and your with me,
Butterflies, butterflies..we were meant to fly,
You and I, you and I..colors in the sky,
We could rule the world someday, somehow but we'll never be as bright as we are now.
We're standing in a light that won't fade,
Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
Cause some days stay gold forever.
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
Cause some days stay gold forever.
Promise me you'll stay the way you are,
Keep the fire alive and stay young at heart,
When the storm feels like it could blow you out remember,

You and I, you and I..colors in the sky,
When the innocence is dead and gone,
These will be the times we look back on.

Cause some days stay gold forever.
The memory of being here with you,

Who knows, who knows what tomorrow will hold but I know that we'll be alright
'Cause we're
Butterflies, butterflies..we were meant to fly,
You and I, you and I..colors in the sky,
We could rule the world someday, somehow but we'll never be as bright as we are now.

9. WAR ZONE
I can't believe I had to see
The girl of my dreams cheating on me
The pain you caused has left me dead inside
I'm gonna make sure you regret that night
I feel you close, I feel you breathe
And now it's like you're here
You're haunting me
You're out of line
You're out of sight
You're the reason that we started this fight
But I know I just gotta let it go
I should'a known
I gotta learn to say goodbye now
I throw my armour down
And leave the battleground
For the final time now
I know I'm running from a warzone
In our house, I hate that place
Everywhere I walk I see your face
Try to erase a memory with a flame
And hope I never see you again
Standing here in this burning room
You know the end could never come so soon
It's clear to me the lies you use
The ones that kill me ain't hurting you
So I know I just gotta let it go
I shoulda' known
I gotta learn to say goodbye now
I throw my armour down
And leave the battleground
For the final time now
I know I'm running from a warzone
I'm running from a warzone
I can't do this anymore
I'm running from a warzone
What are we fighting for?
I'm running from a warzone
I know I just gotta let it go
I shoulda' known
I gotta learn to say goodbye now
I throw my armour down
And leave the battleground
For the final time now
I know I'm running from a warzone

11. MADE
You could hurt with the words,
You could change my life,
You could tell me the truth,
It would cut like a knife but I won't let go
But I won't let go, but I won't let go
You could fall, hit the wall
You could lose your way
You could lose, you could bruise,
Spend it all in day but I won't let go
But I won't let go, but I won't let go
Cause if I had to save someone,
I'd still save you
And if I had to pray for someone,
I'd pray for you
Cause you know we are made for each other
Can't take that away, made for each other
Like sunshine and day, made for each other,
I'm here to stay
Cause you know we are made for each other
I'm made for you, made for each other
Like stars and the moon, made for each other
We'll see it through
(Cause you know we are made)
They could take, they could hate
They could break our hearts
They could try all they want,
Never tear us apart, we will not let go,
We will not let go, we will not let go
Cause if I had to save someone, I'd still save you
And if I had to pray for someone, I'd pray for you
Cause you know we are made for each other
Can't take that away, made for each other
Like sunshine and day, made for each other, I'm here to stay
Cause you know we are made for each other
I'm made for you, made for each other
Like stars and the moon, made for each other
We'll see it through
Cause you know we are made, made, made, made
All of them are fake, fake, fake, fake
We just gotta break, break, break, break
You know we are made, made, made, made
Cause you know we are made for each other
Can't take that away, made for each other
Like sunshine and day, made for each other,
I'm here to stay
Cause you know we are made for each other
I'm made for you, made for each other
Like stars and the moon, made for each other
We'll see it through (Cause you know we are made)
Cause you know we are made...

12. I WANT IT ALL
Take a moment listen please
Words like these don't come with ease
You took my heart and kept it locked
Now it's time to let it go
I want it all or nothing at all, to have you here
Some people fall to hold on to their tears
And if you want it all, I'd do anything to see you through
And if I fall my heart holds on to you
Just one look and I'll subside
When I'm with you my love can't hide
Take a chance, don't run away
With every breath I need to say
I want it all or nothing at all, to have you here
Some people fall to hold on to their tears
And if you want it all, I'll do anything to see this through
And if I fall my heart holds on to you
