Daily Lyrics

I’m full up on emotion
I can’t cry anymore
I’m all about devotion
I can’t watch you walk out the door
Your eyes are like an ocean
Your body was my harbour
The storm crashed us on the shore
And I’m full up on emotion
I used to paint your picture
Every time you came home to me
Now I just watch the horizon
Hoping against hope it’s you I see
They build a bronze statue
For all the lost souls
I’ll just keep my heart open
I’m full up on emotion
Every waves a memory
Every crash a broken cry
With every glass my heart is broken
My emotions running high

Hug me until you drug me
You don’t have to love me
We can still be friends
Until we cross the line
It’s just the way it will be
You don’t have to love me
We are all your friends
It’s happiness by design

Watch the sunset
In the wheat field
Don’t go into town
Watch the people
Being real
There’s something going down

Genetic errors
All for pleasure
Listen to the sounds
Skin to skin
Your flesh is treasure
Don’t push me out of bounds

Staying calm and in control
Insulated from the blood
Don’t tip the scale or dare to fail
What is right and what is good

I am not your father
You are not my son
You’ve been dealing death cards.
Now you’re on the run
I don’t know your name
Look straight through your eyes
So afraid of what I see in you
Is it me that I despise

Do not forsake me
I have fallen so far down
I can’t raise myself again
Do not forsake me
I am calling
I just need a helping hand

Dublin’s streets are dirty
Doorways give me shelter
What little sleep I get
My dreams are Helter Skelter
It’s so hard to be like you
Is trying good enough
When we don’t talk and we don’t touch
Love is lost in the space between both of us

I’ve waited 12 years
Never knocked on your door
I’ll still be there for you
Like I was before
Watching and waiting
Hoping you’re changing
You never saw me
I was just the boy next door

I wish you could
Wake up and love me
I wish you could
I’m not a nobody
So wake up and love me

You always walked our street
Head held high still so sweet
White shirt black skirt
Flat shoes on your feet
Cleopatra eyes your disguise
You can hide behind the lies
Don’t listen to the BB boys
You’re not one of their toys
What beauty is
Youth destroys
You still smile
Through the urban noise

You make me feel good
Make me feel all right
I’ve gotta buzz on
We’re going out tonight
Put on your glad rags
Step in those high shoes
We’re going to drink and dance
Forget all the bad news

Yes it’s our right to party
Let the whole street know
Invite them to this party
We’ll raise the roof
Raise the roof let’s go

We’ll never slow it down
We’ll never make it stop
Let the music play on
Until we feel the drop
When sunlight filters in
Morning kisses on our skin
We walk down to the water
Wake up diving in
Wake up diving in
