Colours 03:43
__ Colours (N. Andrews/ D. Johnson/A. Remanda) I’m sorry you’re feeling blue but I love all your colours Every shade brings something new for me to discover Show me your shadows show me your dreams show me the faces no one ever sees  Let me inside I’ll be what you need don’t be afraid you are safe with me The colours shining from you lighting up the skies  Illuminates the journey through your darkest night In all your happiness and even when you’re blue  In all your colours my love I see you When the day is crashing down and you hear the thunder I’ll lead you to safer ground there’s no need to wonder If I’ll withdraw when the light starts to fade or if we’ll get lost in this lonely parade  Build us a castle where love can remain open the doors I am here to stay The colours shining from you lighting up the skies Illuminates the journey through your darkest night In all your happiness and even when you’re blue In all your colours my love I see you __

__ Made in America (N. Andrews/ D. Johnson/A. Remanda) He was in love with the danger baby He hits the road leaves everything he knows and says “I don’t care” No fear will contain him he’s born ready Holes in his pocket the dream hit him like a rocket He was made in America She was working the nightshift daily Wishing on a star she’s wrapped in her lover’s arms so far from here Fantasy interrupted by her boss screaming Quits slamming the door says “I don’t need this no more” She was made in America A state of “mine” bubbling inside like a bullet to my head When opportunity comes you better take it and run or be left for dead Where we all come first where the truth don’t hurt For better or for worse we were made in America See the ads on the TV and the magazines Uncle Sam reaching out with his hand saying “I want you” The children are laughing who they fighting Soldiers march in line leave opinions behind They were made in America __

__ Notes on a History (N. Andrews/ D. Johnson) We came we saw we conquered all We loved we laughed surrendered all You saw yourself for the first time Too vulnerable you changed your mind They come they go don't mind at all Was it a lie was it a lie We rise we fall and never bother knowing the Why I guess that's life No one to blame we ran into the mouth of the flame Not used to the burn you grew cold enough The sun died enough Ain't it crazy how They come they go and they don't mind at all Was it a lie was it a lie They come they go and they don't bother wondering why I guess that's life They come they go and they don't mind at all Was it a lie was it a lie We rise we fall and never bother knowing the Why I guess that's life __

The Lovers 03:26
__ THE LOVERS (N. Andrews/ D. Johnson/A. Remanda) Speak low move close let the world disappear There’s nowhere I would rather be than right here I’ve heard people talk about it never had my own A warm place the rarest thing I’ve ever known…like waking up inside a dream No need to fly away from where we are Shoot me to the sun I’ll bring you the stars Nothing compares to this a love so sweet You’re my favorite thing like apples and ruby rings White lace fine shoes dancing around the room We play like two lovers coming into bloom Diptyque. John Lee Hooker’s playing. Blue Moon. Ruby Woo. You smile and I sing my part to you: “…knocks me dead right off my feet” No need to fly away from where we are Shoot me to the sun I’ll bring you the stars Nothing compares to this a love so sweet You’re my favorite thing like flowers and tea I won’t save it for later I’m gonna spend it all where we are And whose to say we won’t waver for now we’ll try to be just lie with me No need to fly away from where we are Shoot me to the sun I’ll bring you the stars Nothing compares to this a love so sweet You’re my favorite thing like Paris, Miles and Joni Yeah you’re my favorite thing like apples and ruby rings __
