Heart Over Mind

Heart Over Mind Lyrics

All That I Want

I want to be in that frame of mind

That isexempt from all time

No past to hang on to and

No future to consume you

All that you have is the now

Just for that moment you have

No possession you have no opinion

All that I want is to feel like that again

Nothing could taste or smell so sweet

All that I wish for is to feel like that again

All I got is a memory

From here all I see is good

And I just want this too last

It goes just as fast as it came

In time I’ll learn to hold onto

Fishing

Do I dare to compare to my competition friends

As a consequence I slip into a state of self-defence

Are you good at D&M’s cause I’m your regular abuser

Anyone anytime anywhere, if you start I’ll be the loser

Can I be excused?

Can I leave the room to adjust my mood?

I was just fishing

I’ve got a little game that we can play

It’s called who’s the biggest brown nose

I’ll be the dummy you can test all your skills on me

I am getting good at asking the right questions

I only hear what I want to hear

I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I’m sorry, I was just fishing for a compliment

I called on for your comment

Even though I new what you’d say

I was just fishing

Fishing for a compliment

We’ll be fine

She’s got a dream that does not involve me

She wants to be free like prisoner on reprieve

We’re riding on our train a losing the wheels

Shooting our own movie that ends bitter sweet

She’s got a dream that she has to follow

And I‘ve got a wish that I’ve already made true

So it’s just for a while that we have to part

We’ll follow our dreams, be true to our hearts

We’ll be fine, we’ll be fine, we’ll be fine, we’ll be fine

We’ll living our dreams just not together

We can sweep our stuff back to our corners

You can play your game your way on your court

I can say, I’ll run like never before

She’s got her plans for the future

And I’m on a ship that’s already set sail

If I convince you to stay

The price that I pay

Could be double in the future babe

A bottled up dream

Is like holding back steam

It’ll build up and burn you

Everybody’s Girl

She is the lines of a picture I love

I painted colours with the words I wrote about her

I wrote her a song that won her over

I wrote her ten more that sold her over to all ears listening

I didn’t think of consequence

I sold in dollars what I paid in cents

Now she’s everybody’s girl

I waved it around like bait to a bird

I sang it out loud so everybody heard about us

I broke the shell that hid her pearls

I Uncovered secrets of her world to all ears listening

I didn’t think of consequence

I sold in dollars what I paid in cents

I shouldn’t put the blame on me

But now she’s out like a magazine

Now she’s everybody’s girl

My time

I’ve been livin' tomorrow today

Operating future plans

Too busy being a busy bee

I’ve been missin’ relaxing

I settle into a routine

And succumb to want and greed

Never thinking what I need

I forget about me

My time goes faster than it should

Cause I let my time get overbooked

Yeah I have overlooked, my time

Some one said to me one day

“You’re acting older than your age

What you need is growin’ down

So you enjoy here and now

Every now and then you need

To remind yourself to breathe

See the beauty in simple things

Only comes with time free

Just to know

Sometimes I feel like I’m riding my bike up hill

Sometimes I feel like I’m walking into the wind

When nothing seems to go quite where it’s supposed to

I don’t seem to how come and what I can do

All that I ask is just to know

How do we move from hot to cold?

If only I could just be told

All that we ask is just to know

Was I supposed to do my diary this morning?

Was it the fact that I made coffee instead of tea?

Was it because I ran two laps instead of three?

Because I did not spend enough time on me

In good times gone before we let our routine slide into apathy

And we take for granted the things that we deal with so easily

How did we move from hot to cold?

I always said

I’ve never stepped these stones before

Doesn’t mean that I don’t know the course

It’s all about adaptability

And getting used to the vicinity

What I’ve done has got me here

On top of what once I made of fear

I always said that I wanted this

Ever since I started this

I always said that I wanted this

Now I find myself just right here

What I dreamt is now reality

What I spoke I have now said

What I wrote is now part of my book

I hope that I can now dream again…

I’ve come to a point

And now I can see my fall

It’s nice to reflect but now I must go on

I always said that I…

I wanna say goodbye…

Heart over mind

There’s something in the air tonight

I am down wind of something so bright

Every now and then you get a sign

That there must something your doing right

I know a change is good

But it’s hard to take the first bite of something new

Heart over mind, the difference is unkind

Now I must decide

Now I have to be in control

Of my own direction and soul

It’s just a shame to see

So many before me

Under the hand of the money machine

It’s all up to me to find

What I need to stop the bleed

Heart over mind the difference is unkind,

Now who’s turn to drive

I get lost and overcome

I must get to see the sun

Some time soon my time will come

Locked Out

I’m outside your window

And your talking but it’s hard to hear

I’m being diffused by your amour

Surrounding what you hold near

I’ve got things to say

But the words are no deeper than skin

Year your stones are well laid

I’ll keep looking for a way in

And I’ve been locked out of your house again

Up till now you did let me back in

Now I am the coldest I’ve been.

Well you won’t fall down your stairs

If you’ll only lend your hand

You won’t unlearn your lessons

If you’ll teach what you have gained

And I‘ve been locked out of your house again

Up till now you did let me back in

Now I am the coldest I’ve been

Can you see through my eyes?

Can you understand why?

Grace Emily

Hotel rooms they do nothing for me

Tonight I’m lonely

I’ve got no comfort here

Sleepless night and morning near

Early rise another flight

My eyes feel dry as lies

All I can do is imagine

You in my mind and your passion

And I miss you

It’s been two days

I thought that I’d last a bit longer

And I miss you

And all of your attributes

I keep you in my mind

To ease the pass of time

I wish you were here I need some company

You’ve always got the answers, you know what I need

Your so good to talk to, I want you here

In my fictional mind your so clear

Reach Out

1400 hundred miles from Jigalong

Taken by wadjula cause they though I did not belong

A half cast camp full of motherless kids

Of all ages, from all places

The darker you are, the harder they’d hit

I tell you white man my skin does not conform to your intelligence scale

And I Reach out and mother sing for me

Sing me your greatest prayer cause I’m about to leave

And I Reach out and mother sing for me

Sing me your greatest prayer cause I’m about to leave

Blisters on my feat, crows up above checking on me

Seeing if I’d make it, or if I am their next feed.

No god damn white man was gonna tell me what to do

So I started walking, so I started walking all the way home

And I Reach out and mother sing for me

Sing me your greatest prayer cause I’m the one in need

And I Reach out and mother sing for me

Sing me your greatest prayer cause I’m the one in need

Crashing down

One mans view is another mans void

So don’t take as gospel

One mans word is another mans lie

So don’t believe everything

Exercise your right to choose

Not everything said is true

There’s always a different view

So don’t come crashing down

It’s just what you don’t need right now

You were doing so well

Before you weakened and bowed out

If you filter out the shit

You can find something good in everything said

Keep your skin just thick enough

To let what you want in

Try to keep your glass half full

Don’t let it overflow

And don’t let it get too low

Or you’ll get cut down

Long Distance Love

I’m waiting for you to call me

I want you to tell how you feel

Phone conversations are all I have for gauging

One confirmation will give me back some patience

I wonder how much you miss me, while I’m not around

Doubt has crept in, I wish you’d

Call me, to top up what’s been taken

By our long distance love

Well the truth is all I want

To be told by you in my ear piece

That I’m loved

I know that trust is the key

And come what may – be

I know I just have to believe

But sometimes I get weak

And all that I need is

Love.

Sometimes I feel a little weak, and I just need to be, told by you sweetly

That I’m loved.
