Surreal Lyrics
I Couldn't Love You More
There are times you question why
You give all that you have
And nothing ever seems to come your way
And no matter how you try
The end is just the same
You always seem to play a loosing game
It's time to put aside the questions in your mind
There's no getting over/ loving the easy way
It's time that we all need to overcome the hurt
There's no getting over/ loving the easy way
The less you know the better
The storm will soon be over
Don't let jealousy get in the way
The less you know the better
So get yourself together
Everything is gonna be O.K.
When you've been through this before
The first is like the last
Gets you thinking here we go again
You try but can't ignore
And It driving you insane
Trying to find a way out of the loosing game
It's time to put aside the questions in your mind
There's no getting over/ loving the easy way
It's time that we all need to overcome the hurt
There's no getting over/ loving the easy way

Goodbye To Yesterday
Every day I say I'll try something new
Make some changes that are long overdue
Tryin' to wrap my head around it
Still remain surrounded
By walls that I can't seem to get through
A part of me so keen to see
What I will find if I leave it all behind
I keep dreaming 'bout where I could be
About the places and the faces I'd see
This is bigger than myself
I know that no one else
Can do what's clearly up to me
It's never too late to change your fate
Right here and now, I'm gonna turn my world around
I can't stop what I've started
'Cos I'm finally on my way
And it's time to say goodbye to yesterday
If this goodbye hurts I'm sorry
But it's got to be this way
'Cos it's time to say goodbye to yesterday
Well, I used to think I was stuck on red
Now I know that it was all in my head
But I'm done making excuses
Can't fool myself, it's useless
I'll follow my own lead instead
A part of me so keen to see
What I will find if I just leave it all, leave it all behind

Above The Night
I didn't realize until I messed up again
I guess I should be glad I even got a second chance
I played you like a fool without acknowledging the pain
You made no sound but still you always stayed
And when the darkest of clouds took away my light
I held on to you and you stopped me from falling
Above the night, deeper than the darkness
Above the night you are always there
Above the night, your patience is timeless
Above the night I find you there
As I stumbled from one mistake into another
And all the while, You never told me so
How could you be so kind to someone so unattached
I'm still amazed you didn't tell me where to go
And It's not your fault that I repeat my crimes
No It's not your fault the way I am sometimes
And It's not your fault that I repeat my crimes
No It's not your fault
I can be... Mindless, reckless, shameless, heartless
Mindless, reckless and I'm sorry baby

Ain't It Time
Where along the line did you get off the track
Thinking the life you're living is where it's at
Don't you feel discontent inside
There's something about you life just cannot hide
They say home is where your heart is
But I say it's in your peace of mind
If you go home to yourself
Happiness you've got to find
Ain't it time you went home. Ain't it time you went home
Ain't it time you went home. Ain't it time you went home
Going home, going home
Facing the truth is the first move to make
Then love and dreams are yours to take
There'll be no love lest you give it
Dreams will be dreams until you live them
Strong belief with a strong pursuit
Is the latest combination to see you through
You be your own master double-denim strong
You wonder how you stayed away from home so long

Capricorn Sun
Don't shoot me down
'Cos you've heard a story
Don't blow me out
'Cos you don't really know me
You can't judge a book
Until you've taken time to read it
Get to know my life before you start to change my world
Get, get
You've always got to have it
Living your life under your Capricorn sun
Get, get
Won't stop until you've got it
Living your life under the light of
Your Capricorn sun
It's not a race
And you just can't force it
Something so real
Has a story to it
Let's write the book
And take the time to read it
Lighting up a fire won't turn a night into a day
So single minded
You're almost blinded
Writer: J-P. Maunick
Don't Wanna Know
Say what you wanna say about her
'Cause you can't change my mind
What seems wrong for you might be right for me
So step back behind the line
This bond is invisible, yeah
No need to get cynical
Can't break what's unbreakable
No matter what you do, you can't succeed because
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know, no, no
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
So maybe you should let it go
Now please don't take this personal
But I just don't wanna know, don't wanna know
So talk to whoever you need to talk to
You can't take away my smile
Neither rain nor thunder, not even a hurricane
Could change my joy inside
This bond is invincible, yeah
No point being critical, no, no
Can't break what's unbreakable
No matter what you do, you can't succeed because
Hush now, sshhh, keep it low
He just doesn't wanna know
Maybe you should let it go...
If you could see what I see
You'd simply give up and turn around
So don't waste your time on this, I keep telling you
There is no way that I will ever change my mind
'Cause I don't wanna know
Writer: J.P. Maunick / M. Brandis
Restless As We Are
I knew if I found the patience
Then eventually in time
I'd find someone whose journey
Could be a part of mine
I feel I can go the distance
Without raising false alarms
Because you understand me
And I realize your charms
I'm through with hesitation
This time I've come around
I'm under no illusion
That love cannot be found
And still with clouds above me
Everything looks bright
I've never felt like this before
I'm drawn into the light
Where skies fall into oceans
We'll always share the dawn
Crazy 'bout each other
Restless as we are
Where streetlights cast their shadows
We'll consume the night
Bound to one another
Restless as we are
Some live their lives with prudence
But that's not you and I
Journeys, songs and poetry
Ending with a sigh
Writer: J-P. Maunick / M. Cooper / N. Williams
Don't Break Me Down
Tears well up and words exchanged
As we try to match each other blow by blow
The days go by but nothing's changed
We simply patch the surface of what lies below
On any given morning
Yesterday's smile may just have been replaced
From somewhere without warning
Rain clouds appear on sunny days
Break into my consciousness.
Break into my silence
But don't break me down
Break into my loneliness.
Do it with some tenderness
Don't break me down
It would hurt for me to know
That I could never change your heart or mine
It's easier to let it go
But that's an option that I'm likely to decline
The truth is understanding
That everything has a time and a place
A chapter could be closing
As an opening door your saving grace
Writer: J-P. Maunick / M. Cooper
The Stars From Here
Didn't take long to tell you
Guess you already knew
My eyes can't tell another story than my heart, it's true
Lucky you were with me
With me all the way
And now I feel I can openly say
I can see the stars from here
Shining in your eyes
Those kind of heaven eyes
Nothing's ever been so clear
That sparkle love implies
Like a thousand warm Julys
I can see the stars from here...
May this always continue
This notion here and now
I've never had a feeling like this that I could allow
And i know you are with me
No shadow of a doubt
You give me so much to smile about
I can see the stars from here
Shining in your eyes
Those kind of heaven eyes
Nothing's ever been so clear
That sparkle love implies
Like a thousand warm Julys
I can see the stars from here
I can see the stars
Writer: J-P. Maunick / N. Williams
To Be With You
Nothing says I love you like I love you
It's simply what I want to say to you
Whatever it was that you did
You just need to keep on doing it
'Cos when you touched this lonely heart of mine
You gave me a brand new start
The feel of your touch is heaven
And your love means the world to me
The most beautiful things, the moon and the stars
They've got nothin' on you
No ifs and no buts, I couldn't stand to the side
Take the risk and loose you
Had to get you into my life
Stay, won't you stay, baby stay, nothing is better
No feeling is greater, than to be with you
Stay, won't you stay, we can play, when we're together
No feeling is greater, than to be with you
To be with you
From the first time I laid eyes on you
I just knew that you were meant for me
Oh no I can't help myself wanting you
Had to hold you and make you mine
Nothing says I love you like I love you
It's simply what I want to say to you
Writer: J-P. Maunick / M. Cooper
This Must Be Love
Could not have been more than a passing cloud
It took us both by surprise
Two people alone on a restless night
Looking to shelter from the rain
(This must be love)
Skipping across puddles on the ground
(This must be love)
We didn't even use our eyes
(This must be love)
In the doorway of the old café
(This must be love)
You smiled and filled an empty space
So hold on to my heart now, hold on to my heart
I never once believed that I would find someone like you
I'll hold on to your heart now, hold on to your heart
I've found this feeling that I'll never let go
This must be love… This must be love
I've never been known as a gambling man
But I'll play it all on this hand
Cos once in a lifetime something comes your way
And you feel like you're walking out in space
(This must be love)
And now my feet they hardly touch the ground
(This must be love)
And every day's a better day
(This must be love)
The years have passed and the feeling's grown
(This must be love)
And I need you more than ever now
This must be love… This must be love
Baby hold on…

The Way You Love
Somebody told me long ago
If you believe, it will come to you
There's no denying I agree
You are the proof that this is true
Now I can shout it everyday
Good things come to those who wait
Here in this feeling is where I belong
You took your time but it's not too late
You are the flame and I'm the flower
You make me feel like no other
You wrap me up in silk and shadows
And I can't keep it in. No I Just can't keep it in
The way you love gets me high on you
For your love, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
The way you love gets me high on you
Can't let this feeling go
The way you love gets me high on you
For your love, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
The way you love gets me high on you
Can't stop this feeling no
No I can't help it the way I feel
With you I see beyond my dreams
I'm so addicted to your touch
When you're not around my body screams
I dream about you exclusively
Reach out to me and you'll find me there
It feels like heaven when you're holding me
Can't hide this love cos' it's everywhere
The sweetest feeling your embrace
The sweetest feeling your embrace
I Love the way you love. I Love the way you love
