The Corrs
Only When I Sleep

You're only just a dream boat
Sailing in my head
You swim my secret oceans
Of coral blue and red
Your smell is incense burning
Your touch is silken yet
It reaches through my skin
Moving from within
And clutches at my breast

CHORUS:
But it's only when I sleep
See you in my dreams
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside down
But I only hear you breathe
Somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning round and round
Turning upside down
But it's only when I sleep

And when I wake from slumber
Your shadow's disappeared
Your breath is just a sea mist
Surrounding my body
I'm working through the daytime
But when it's time to rest
I'm lying in my bed
Listening to my breath
Falling from the edge

(CHORUS)

But it's only when I sleep...

(Up to the sky)
(Where angles fly)
(I'll never die)
(Hawaiian high)

It's reaching through my skin
Moving from within
And clutches at my breast

(FIRST HALF CHORUS)

(In bed I lie)
(No need to cry)
(My sleeping cry)
(Hawaiian high)

(Up to the sky)
(Where angles fly)
(I'll never die)
(Hawaiian high)




I Never Loved You Anyway

You bored me with your stories
I can't believe that I endured you for as long as I did
I'm happy it's over, I'm only sorry
That I didn't make the move before you

And when you go I will remember
To send a thank you note to that girl
I see she's holding you so tender
Well I just wanna say

I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
I'm so glad you're moving away

Valentino I don't think so
You watching MTV while I lie dreaming in an MT bed
And come to think of it
I was misled
My flat my food my everything
And thoughts inside my head

Before you go I must remember
To have a quiet word with that girl
Does she know you're not a spender
Well I just have to say

I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
I'm so happy you're moving away

And when you go I will remember
I must remember to say...
I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
I never really loved you anyway
No I didn't love you anyway
Never truly loved you anyway
I'm so happy you're moving away
Yeah I'm delighted you're moving away



What Can I Do


I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we have talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

There's only so much I can take
And I just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better
If I don't try and I don't hope

[Chorus]

No more waiting, no more aching
No more fighting, no more trying...

Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just going to let it fly...

[Chorus]

Love me...


Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound, of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat.. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost, yeah what you had, and what you lost

Yeah, Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
And women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Well here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself, it's only me that wants to wrap around your
dreams
and have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness like a heartbeat.. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost, yeah what you had, yeah, and what you lost

Yeah, Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Yeah Women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
Yeah, Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You will know
You will know
(Fade Out)


Lyrics & Music By: Jimmy McCarthy
If life is a river and your heart is a boat
And just like a water baby, born to float,
And if life is a wild wind that blows way on high,
And your heart is Amelia dying to fly,
Heaven knows no frontiers and I've seen heaven in your eyes

And if life is a bar room in which we must wait,
'round the man with his fingers on the ivory gates,
Where we sing until dawn of our fears and our fates,
And we stack all the dead men in self addressed crates,
In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark,
That somehow this black night,
Feels warmer for the spark,
Warmer for the spark,
To hold us 'til the day,
When fear will lose its grip,
And heaven has its way,
Heaven knows no frontiers,
And I've seen heaven in your eyes

If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails,
And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails,
Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right,
And your heart is a pure flame of man's constant night,
In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark,
That somehow this black night,
Feels warmer for the spark,
Warmer for the spark,
To hold us 'til the day when fear will lose its grip,
And heaven has its way,
And heaven has its way,
When all will harmonise,
And know what's in our hearts,
The dream will realise

Heaven knows no frontiers,
And I've seen heaven in your eyes,
Heaven knows no frontiers,
And I've seen heaven in your eyes


Say it's true, there's nothing like me and you
I'm not alone, tell me you feel it too

And I would run away
I would run away ... yeah
I would run away
I would run away with you

'Cause I am falling in love with you
No never , I never gonna stop falling in love with you

Close the door and lay down upon the floor
And by candlelight, make love to me through the night

'Cause I have run away
I have run away ... yeah
I have run away, run away
I have run away with you

'Cause I am falling in love with you
No I never, I never gonna stop falling in love with you

With you, my love, with you

And I would run away
I would run away ... yeah
I would run away
I would run away with you

'Cause I am falling in love with you
No I never, I never gonna stop falling in love with you

'Cause I am falling in love with you
No I never, I never gonna stop falling in love with you
with you, my love, with you


We were taking it easy
Bright and breezy yeah
We are living it up
Just fine and danday yeah
We are chasing the moon
Just running wild and free

And it doesn't really matter that we don't eat
And it really doesn't matter if we never sleep
No it really doesn't matter
Really doesn't matter at all

Coz we are so young now, we are so young, so young now
And when tomorrow comes, we'll just do it all again

We were chasing the moon
Just running wild and free
We are following through
Every dream and every need

And it really doesn't matter that we don't eat
And it really doesn't matter if we never sleep
No it really doesn't matter
Really doesn't matter at all

Coz we are so young, yeah we are so young, so young now
And when tomorrow comes we'll just do it all again...

Un tout grand merci à Candice
