Eagle Eye Cherry
Save Tonight

Go on and close the curtains
'cause all we need is candlelight
You and me and the bottle of wine
and hold you tonight

Well, we know I'm going away
And how I wish, I wish it weren't so
so take this wine and drink with me
let's delay our misery...

Save tonight
fight the break at dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

There's a log on the fire
and it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire..
to take me away

It ain't easy to say goodbye
darling please don't start to cry
'cause girl you know I've got to go
and Lord I wish it wasn't so

[chorus]

Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that I, that I could stay
but girl you know I've got to go, oh
and Lord I wish it wasn't so

[chorus]



When Mermaids Cry


She was drowned in suicide faithless lover cast aside
This is how she came to be Lorelei of the sea
Hopes destroyed she wanted to find certain death peace of mind
Now you wonder who is she Lorelei of the sea
Many tales I've been told of sailors having died
after seeing a mermaid known as Lorelei
Faithless lover that is me and she siren of the sea
So next time that the seagulls fly
Don't you cry sweet Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
The guilt is mine I was untrue the question is what am I to do
All I know is I got to try to find sweet Lorelei
Make amends for what's been done cause I believe that she's the one
Try to find sweet Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei
There she is I hear her cry
She's asking me if I will die
There ain't nothing I won't do for Lorelei
Seagulls fly when mermaids cry
Those tears wont dry for Lorelei


Falling In Love Again
Eagle Eye Cherry


I'm so tired
of falling in love
Finding it easier
to fall out
I can't deny it
I feel it inside
I'll keep its fire
you can't hide
I'm falling in love again
ain't nothing I can do
Falling in love again
this time it's with you
When I fall
it's always the same
and I'm so tired
of playing this game
It's so long now
since I gave up my heart
I've kept the light down
I don't wanna get it hard
So let me tell you now
I just wanna be sure
that you won't hurt me
Can you promise me that?
Falling in love again
ain't nothing I can do
Falling in love again, girl
and this time it's with you
When I fall
it's always the same
and I'm so tired
of playing this game
Got to tell me if you're gonna break my heart
If you don't wanna take the chance
And if it ain't true, all it's gonna be
is nothing but a poor romance
So, give me that promise to hold on now
I'll never let you go
I've got to have something go on, oh
then you know now
Falling in love again
ain't nothing I can do
Falling in love again, girl
this time it's with you
When I fall
it's always the same
and I'm so tired
of playing this game, yeah

(Falling in love)
Falling in love again
(Falling in love)
Falling in love again
(Falling in love)
Falling in love again
(Falling in love)
Falling in love again

ain't nothing I can do
Falling in love again, girl
this time it's with you
When I fall
it's always the same
and I'm so tired
of playing this game


Indecision

Well I found my inpiration there
In silent whispers it just came to me so clear
Simple question of what was i doing there

Hesitation
When I'm standing with my prey
Idecision
Of if I should blow him away

It's kind of strange what happened from that moment on
What more can I say than the reason he was gone
What they were asking was more than I could bear

Execution
What more can I say
The Realisation
Of Blowing a brother away

Something in me was gone
Something in me was gone

Hesitation
When I'm standing with my prey
Idecision
Of if I should blow him away

Simple question of what was i doing there

Execution
Now, it was not a part of me
The Realisation
Of how things are going to be

In my commitment to staying away from guilt
I feel no emotion for those I have gone and killed
Heartless devotion to saving the rest of me

I take my gun and give it to my prey
I turn my back to him and I start to walk away
All I want is for someone to stop me there

Don't want redemption - Don't want salvation
