Chantal Kreviazuk Lyrics
Hard Sail lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Don't bring me down
Not what an anchor should do
I'm not gonna drown
Tryin' to hold onto you
I haven't seen dry land in forever so I kiss the cross
Subject to the moon and the weather and the signal's lost
One storm has come and gone
Here comes another one
I'd rather fight than float
I can't control this boat
Yes it's hard sailing with you
Yes it's hard sailing with you
I wanna go home
I never lose hope
That somewhere the water's smooth
It's hard sailing with you
And I do
Don't waste our time
Tracing where it went wrong
Someone will find us
One day when we're gone
They'll say that we fought together 'til the bitter end
There's no shame we found forever in a sinking ship
One storm has come and gone
Here comes another one
I'd rather fight than float
I can't control this boat
Yes it's hard sailing with you
Yes it's hard sailing with you
I wanna go home
I never lose hope
That somewhere the water's smooth
It's hard sailing with you
And I do
I'm not afraid when it's foggy
And I taste the salt on my body
I wanna jump but I can't swim
Yes it's hard sailing with you
Yes it's hard sailing with you
I wanna go home
I never lose hope
That somewhere the water's smooth
It's hard sailing with you
And I do
All I Got lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Honestly I love you more than I could love myself
More than any baby that in my arms I've ever held
And when I'm away from you I wonder
If I'm ever gonna see you again
'Cuz you're the only taste of heaven
That I ever seem to get
You're all I got
You're everything in one pop
So come a little closer
I'm giving full disclosure
I'm lost without you
The moment I first saw you I felt that I was in my body
I don't look for exit signs in every room I walk in
There's nothing here need escaping
There's a piece inside that's settled in
And the wounds are no longer gaping
And I'm finally alive again
You're all I got
You're everything in one pop
So come a little closer
I'm giving full disclosure
I'm lost without you
You're all I got
You're everything please don't stop
You and me are magic
So beautiful it's tragic
I'm lost without you
And you saw me as if I didn't have those scars
And you saw me the way you look up at those stars
You're all I got
You're everything in one pop
So come a little closer
I'm giving full disclosure
I'm lost without you
You're all I got
You're everything please don't stop
You and me are magic
So beautiful it's tragic
I'm lost without you
Into Me lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Like a little girl, little girl
In another bad dream
I'm wakin' up
You're still next to me
When I go away, go away
When I turn the key
I'm petrified
Oh please don't leave
Cuz I'm finally starting to believe
That you're not, you're not
Going anywhere, anywhere
You're not, you're not
Going anywhere, anywhere
Yes I'm finally starting to believe
That you're into me
Am I found out, found out
Oh can you see
I'm trapped in a world
I can't get free
You're the, you're the, you're the only thin
That can save me now
I'm in too deep
Cuz I'm finally starting to believe
That you and me and this thing it's really happening
And you're not, you're not
Going anywhere, anywhere
No you're not, you're not
Going anywhere, anywhere
[x2]
Yes I'm finally starting to believe
That you're into me
Me the beast
Me the flower
Me the dragon in my tower
Me the bull with my horns
You give it all and I want
I want more...
You're not, you're not
Going anywhere, anywhere
No you're not, you're not
Going anywhere, anywhere
[x2]
Yes I'm finally starting to believe
Yes I'm finally starting to believe
That you're into me
Vicious lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
The perfect storm, it got to me
I wasn't there, I'm not guilty
But I can't put myself at the scene
Yeah that's right
They pull me in they spit me out
They set me up, they sell me drought
I just smile and laugh somehow
Yeah that's right
Pass me the sugar
The blood tastes too bitter
Man, this is war
Please forgive me, I'm trying to survive
The wolves are vicious over here on my side
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
There's nothing else anybody can do
This is the life some say we all choose
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Changed my clothes
They're drenched in sweat
Lie awake asking what's next
If only love made perfect sense
Oh yeah right
Let them in if you must
Like minds can be dangerous
Talk is cheap and we're all thugs
Yeah that's right
Pass me the sugar
The blood tastes too bitter
Man, this is war
Please forgive me, I'm trying to survive
The wolves are vicious over here on my side
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
There's nothing else anybody can do
This is the life some say we all choose
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Give it all to Sunday
He'll know what to do
Take it back on Monday
Carry it with you
Carry it with you
Carry it with you
Carry it with you
Carry it with you
Please forgive me, I'm trying to survive
The wolves are vicious over here on my side
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
There's nothing else anybody can do
This is the life some say we all choose
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Lost lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Now
Now you must sit
No one's judging you
You get a pass on this
Look
Now look ahead
Into the future
Into the future
And see you
Smile
See you shine
You're safe
Yes, you're safe again
Oh the only hope you've got
Is breathing in
And breathing out
And oh you know you can't make it stop
That's what tragedy
Is all about
We're lost
Take
Take every word
Their humility
Makes the birds on earth
Fly and sing
God's music to you
At this precious time
Oh the only hope you've got
Is breathing in
And breathing out
And oh you know you can't make it stop
That's what tragedy
Is all about
We're lost
We're lost
Oh the only hope you've got
Is breathing in
And breathing out
And oh you know you can't make it stop
That's what tragedy
Is all about
Oh and when the fire is out
We'll see the world
And walk around
And oh this place we're in is right
Even though it
Feels like
We're lost
We're lost
Meant For This lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
The disparity between
When you're kind and when you're mean
It's too much for any sane heart to bare
And the diversity of words said
I play 'em over in my head
It's not safe, I gotta get out of here
Well first you're a sunny afternoon
Then you're pouring salt into the wound
Well, can this not hurt so much
I broke down another door
But you keep coming back for more
And I never can resist
Well, maybe we're meant for this
Well maybe we're meant for this
I'm the woman of your every dream
I'm a nightmare you can't believe
I'll defy everything you say
And I'm so in touch with how I feel
And you're still there on your training wheels well
I'll wait as long as it takes
For you to catch up to me
First we're making harmony
Now there's nothing left of me
This doesn't make much sense
Here comes the past again
And it's trying to ruin all we mend
And you tell me to forgive
Well, maybe we're meant for this
Well maybe we're meant for this
Well maybe we're meant for this
I don't know how to thank ya
I don't know how to thank ya
First you're a sunny afternoon
Then you're pouring salt into the wound
Well, can this not hurt so much
And here comes the past again
And it's trying to ruin all we mend
And you tell me to forgive
Well, maybe we're meant for this
Well maybe we're meant for this
Well maybe we're meant for this
Snowing In The Desert lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I like the way
You can celebrate
With anybody
Feel joy for their success
And you're so genuine
And I'm a nightmare
She told the judge it isn't fair that human nature kicks you when you're down
She's shy and freezes up but she can dance so well when no one is around
It's snowing in the desert we must watch
Witnessing a strange phenomenon
Finally get a tiny glimpse of God, of God
I'm so ugly inside
A victim of my pride
She's perfect
All I see is what I'm not
I want everything she's got
I'm hopeless
Flaw in the design that I can't manifest a mind so beautiful
It's not enough for me, they've got to touch what I can feel, it's so evil
It's snowing in the desert we must watch
Witnessing a strange phenomenon
Finally get a tiny glimpse of God, of God
Solving every mystery unsolved
Exhausted by the notion of it all
Heaven waits in the night, feel it pulling
And so she thought she'd become eruditey
Can't stop the fading roses
I like the way
You can celebrate
With anybody
It's snowing in the desert we must watch
Witnessing a strange phenomenon
Finally get a tiny glimpse of God, of God
Solving every mystery unsolved
Exhausted by the notion of it all
In between the earthquakes it's so cold, so cold
Ticklish lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I want that day
But it never comes
You're begging me to play
I'm the tortured one
I'll take my chance
Walk home alone
A small circumstance
And we go full blown
You say it's too dark
But it's gonna get darker
You say it's too hard
But it's gonna get harder
Why you wanna tease me?
I'm not so ticklish now
Why don't you believe me?
I'm not so ticklish
So ticklish now
You take my stress
Oh you'll be my pocket knife
This is not a test
It's all wrong and right
You scream and you cry
And throw me on the bed
And tell me to get light
That it's all in my head
You say it's too dark
But it's gonna get darker
You say it's too hard
But it's gonna get harder
Why you wanna tease me?
I'm not so ticklish now
Why don't you believe me?
I'm not so ticklish
So ticklish now
Can't stop birds when they're in mid flight
Don't mind if I run and hide
Saw me buried deep in that mine
Time I got digging
Digging
Why you wanna tease me?
I'm not so ticklish now
Why don't you believe me?
I'm not so ticklish
So ticklish now
So ticklish now
I'm not so ticklish
So ticklish
I'm not so ticklish now
I'm not so ticklish now
I'm not so ticklish now
I Love You lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
No one else could hear me
When I was headed for the falls
But inside I was screaming out
At the top of my lungs
No one else could hear the tears roll down my face
Like rolling stones
When everyone was laughing at
The joke of the day
I was trying to teach myself
How to ride out the pain
No one shows you how to navigate through
This maze on your own
But you gave me a voice
And now I have no choice
I'm gonna live the life that I intended
And stop the one that I pretended
Break out my heart and my soul
And you gave me your word
That I would be heard
And now I never ever have to wonder
If I matter or I'm nothing
How I love you
No one else could see me hanging on by a shred
Drinking up my sorrows
Hiding out in my bed
Never did imagine I'd make silence
My very best friend
You gave me a voice
And now I have no choice
I'm gonna live the life that I intended
And stop the one that I pretended
Break out my heart and my soul
And you gave me your word
That I would be heard
And now I never ever have to wonder
If I matter or I'm nothing
How I love you
Yes, I never ever have to wonder
If I matter or I'm nothing
How I love you
Smile In Your Sleep lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
You must rest now
Dream so deep
I will caress you
Smile in your sleep
Smile in your sleep
Don't go so fast
And don't get too far away from home
Heaven at last
To see how much my baby's grown
You must rest now
Dream so deep
I will caress you
Smile in your sleep
Smile in your sleep
Don't go so fast
And don't get too far away from home
Heaven at last
To see how much my baby's grown
You must rest now
Dream so deep
I will caress you
Smile in your sleep
Smile in your sleep
Child Of The Water lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
We are the pointed end of stars
We cut a hole in the dark
Sing so high we built the sky
And with the tears we cry
We filled the sea of life
Let the water breathe
Down, down beneath
And let no one be afraid
Here where love remains
And here a bird cannot be lost
The mermaids perched upon the rocks
And everywhere is home
My food and my clothes
The shells around her neck
And the seaweed are her locks
Let the water breathe
Down, down beneath
And let no one be afraid
Here where love remains
And tell them that I'm still alive
And that birds, they never really die
Forever, it's a forever flight
And that sorry can be said with a smile
See his reflections everywhere
In the water, the fire, the earth, the sky
Hear his voice in the wind
A heart so rare
A heart so rare
Let the water breathe
Down, down beneath
And let no one be afraid
Here where love remains
Let the water breathe
Down, down beneath
And let no one be afraid
Here where love remains
Invincible lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I thought I had the right day, but I was in the wrong place.
I tried to open a door, but got it slammed in my face.
I'm at the back of the line, feels like eternity.
Well, they tell me I'm gettin' close, but I know I'm still far.
You can dress me up, but you can't cover my scars.
I've become a professional at hide and seek.
I'm a danger to myself.
I can take a wrong turn, you're right behind me.
Crash and burn, I know you'll find me.
As long as you're here, I'm invincible.
I can call your name and you'll come running.
It's pouring rain, you'll make it sunny.
As long as you're here, I'm invincible.
Want to be part of the cure, but I'm part of the disease.
I can chase butterflies, but I get stung by the bees.
Sometimes I think too much, forget my clarity.
I bought every self-help book that I could fit on the shelf.
Too many Downward Dogs, they can be bad for your health.
I don't know who I am, so much for therapy.
I'm a danger to myself.
I can take a wrong turn, you're right behind me.
Crash and burn, I know you'll find me.
As long as you're here, I'm invincible.
I can call your name and you'll come running.
It's pouring rain, you'll make it sunny.
As long as you're here, I'm invincible.
I'm not the same old girl, no.
I want a brand new world.
I can take a wrong turn, you're right behind me.
Crash and burn, I know you'll find me.
As long as you're here, I'm invincible.
I can call your name and you'll come running.
It's pouring rain, you'll make it sunny.
As long as you're here, I'm invincible.
I thought I had the right day, but I was in the wrong place.
I tried to open a door, but got it slammed in my face.
I'm at the back of the line, feels like eternity.
I tried to open a door, but got it slammed in my face.

Half Of Me lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
That was the sweetest song that I ever heard.
Sometimes I feel we're just tryin' to steal from the way that we once were.
I'm not the kind of girl to throw the first stone.
But this isn't fun, the damage is done. Don't know which way to turn.
When half of me is ready to leave and half of me is you.
You're the reason I'm alive. Oh honey, you.
And there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
I'm so inspired.
It's not a perfect world, but it's the one we live in.
We get so spoiled and think we need more.
Grass is greener where someone else is.
Don't really think that I'm goin' out on a limb
if I say that you're the greatest chord that I ever hit.
Half of me is ready to leave and half of me is you.
You're the reason I'm alive. Oh honey, you.
And there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
I'm so inspired.
I don't know what I'm doin' here. I don't know what I'm doin' here.
But, it's these times, oh I've gotta trust there's someone bigger than us.
I don't know what I'm doin' here. Oh, I don't know what I'm doin' here.
So I'll, I'll just trust.
Oh honey, you. You're the reason I'm alive.
Oh honey, you and there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
Oh honey, you and you're the reason I'm alive.
Oh honey, you and there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
I'm so inspired.
I'm so inspired.
So inspired.
Sometimes I feel we're just tryin' to steal from the way that we once were.
I'm not the kind of girl to throw the first stone.
But this isn't fun, the damage is done. Don't know which way to turn.
When half of me is ready to leave and half of me is you.
You're the reason I'm alive. Oh honey, you.
And there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
I'm so inspired.
It's not a perfect world, but it's the one we live in.
We get so spoiled and think we need more.
Grass is greener where someone else is.
Don't really think that I'm goin' out on a limb
if I say that you're the greatest chord that I ever hit.
Half of me is ready to leave and half of me is you.
You're the reason I'm alive. Oh honey, you.
And there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
I'm so inspired.
I don't know what I'm doin' here. I don't know what I'm doin' here.
But, it's these times, oh I've gotta trust there's someone bigger than us.
I don't know what I'm doin' here. Oh, I don't know what I'm doin' here.
So I'll, I'll just trust.
Oh honey, you. You're the reason I'm alive.
Oh honey, you and there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
Oh honey, you and you're the reason I'm alive.
Oh honey, you and there's no way I can deny all you inspire in me.
I'm so inspired.
I'm so inspired.
So inspired.
Ordinary People lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I close my eyes, but I can't sleep again.
There's static in my head.
And the world outside is finally closin' in.
I guess it is what it is.
The sun still rises, those clouds are comin' this way.
They always come this way.
The stars keep fallin' and disappear.
We punch that clock, day begins.
Work gets done, we start over again.
We're ordinary people.
We're not the same, but we are one
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
I paid the rent, all my money spent.
But I know where I am.
And I'm satisfied 'cause I know I did my best.
I always do my best.
The sun still rises, the clouds are comin' this way.
They always come this way.
The stars keep fallin' and disappear.
We punch that clock, day begins.
Work gets done, we start over again.
We're ordinary people.
We're not the same, but we are one.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
Once I was afraid, my sorrows out on display.
I'm not ashamed.
We punch that clock, day begins.
Work gets done, we start over again.
We're ordinary people.
We're not the same, but we are one.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
There's static in my head.
And the world outside is finally closin' in.
I guess it is what it is.
The sun still rises, those clouds are comin' this way.
They always come this way.
The stars keep fallin' and disappear.
We punch that clock, day begins.
Work gets done, we start over again.
We're ordinary people.
We're not the same, but we are one
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
I paid the rent, all my money spent.
But I know where I am.
And I'm satisfied 'cause I know I did my best.
I always do my best.
The sun still rises, the clouds are comin' this way.
They always come this way.
The stars keep fallin' and disappear.
We punch that clock, day begins.
Work gets done, we start over again.
We're ordinary people.
We're not the same, but we are one.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
Once I was afraid, my sorrows out on display.
I'm not ashamed.
We punch that clock, day begins.
Work gets done, we start over again.
We're ordinary people.
We're not the same, but we are one.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
In the end, it makes no difference where we're from.
We're ordinary people.
5000 Days lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I thought of you for 5000 days
That's a long time
That's a big wave
I look in your eyes
In search of the truth
There's some kind of heaven
Maybe some proof
My link to thee unknown
My connection
My hope
My hope
This isn't temporary
Did we have a clue
When we started this
How far we'd get
From just a kiss
I have to trust
So I don't lose my mind
The world we have built
We'll be leaving behind
My link to thee unknown
My connection
My hope
My hope
This isn't temporary
So many vibrations
Weaving through my soul
Can't be my imagination
Did we have a clue
When we started this
How far we'd get
From just a kiss
My hope
My hope
My hope
My hope
My hope
My hope
This isn't temporary
That's a long time
That's a big wave
I look in your eyes
In search of the truth
There's some kind of heaven
Maybe some proof
My link to thee unknown
My connection
My hope
My hope
This isn't temporary
Did we have a clue
When we started this
How far we'd get
From just a kiss
I have to trust
So I don't lose my mind
The world we have built
We'll be leaving behind
My link to thee unknown
My connection
My hope
My hope
This isn't temporary
So many vibrations
Weaving through my soul
Can't be my imagination
Did we have a clue
When we started this
How far we'd get
From just a kiss
My hope
My hope
My hope
My hope
My hope
My hope
This isn't temporary
Today lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
The sun hits your face, wide open space.
Forest is bare, cut everywhere.
There's no one around, just the faces and clouds
and a heart that's breaking.
You're not exactly where you're supposed to be,
but tomorrow don't allow for guarantee.
So, today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Chasing the crowd, all twisted around.
It's not what you lost, it's what you've found.
Eyes of a child, it's getting harder to smile.
You're an angel on these streets.
You tell yourself you're not quite what you seem.
But, one more chance and you will be redeemed.
Oh, today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
I don't know what you mean.
And I don't know what you need.
You tell yourself you're not quite what you seem.
But, one more chance and you will be redeemed.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Forest is bare, cut everywhere.
There's no one around, just the faces and clouds
and a heart that's breaking.
You're not exactly where you're supposed to be,
but tomorrow don't allow for guarantee.
So, today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Chasing the crowd, all twisted around.
It's not what you lost, it's what you've found.
Eyes of a child, it's getting harder to smile.
You're an angel on these streets.
You tell yourself you're not quite what you seem.
But, one more chance and you will be redeemed.
Oh, today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
I don't know what you mean.
And I don't know what you need.
You tell yourself you're not quite what you seem.
But, one more chance and you will be redeemed.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
Today, today, today is the greatest day.
Today is the greatest day.
The Way lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
The sky was grey for so long by the time the sun came out,
I didn't notice. I was too far gone.
And now this building's not so high and forever ain't so long.
I don't remember, no. What went wrong?
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go and don't do anything at all.
Sorry for how I drag you around, up when you're down
and down when you're up. I should just cheer you on.
Somewhere, there's your middle ground, you know you're there,
oh, when you're found, you're lost and then you're free.
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go and don't do anything at all.
Somewhere, there's your middle ground, you know you're there,
oh, when you're found, you're lost.
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go, don't do anything, no.
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go, don't do anything at all.
I didn't notice. I was too far gone.
And now this building's not so high and forever ain't so long.
I don't remember, no. What went wrong?
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go and don't do anything at all.
Sorry for how I drag you around, up when you're down
and down when you're up. I should just cheer you on.
Somewhere, there's your middle ground, you know you're there,
oh, when you're found, you're lost and then you're free.
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go and don't do anything at all.
Somewhere, there's your middle ground, you know you're there,
oh, when you're found, you're lost.
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go, don't do anything, no.
This is the way I'm feelin', can't take away what's real to me, no.
This is the way I'm turnin', so let me go, don't do anything at all.
Plain Jane lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I feel so plain jane
I have no costume
I have no hairdo
Limited attitude
But I can blend in
With the best of 'em
Bring me a crowd and
Watch me get lost within
All the skies
All the nights
Every star
Every moon's so bright
No more lies
Or disguise
This is me
And it's genuine
I feel so plain jane
I have no costume
I have no hairdo
A limited attitude
But I can blend in
With the best of 'em
Bring me a crowd and
Watch me get lost within
All the skies
All the nights
Every star
Every moon is mine
No more lies
Or disguise
This is me
It's paradise
Oh my serenity
Oh my liberty
Oh I paid my price
Oh my sincerity
Oh my humanity
Oh it feels so nice
I feel so plain jane
I have no costume
I have no hairdo
A limited attitude
But I can blend in
With the best of 'em
Bring me a crowd and
Watch me get lost within
I have no costume
I have no hairdo
Limited attitude
But I can blend in
With the best of 'em
Bring me a crowd and
Watch me get lost within
All the skies
All the nights
Every star
Every moon's so bright
No more lies
Or disguise
This is me
And it's genuine
I feel so plain jane
I have no costume
I have no hairdo
A limited attitude
But I can blend in
With the best of 'em
Bring me a crowd and
Watch me get lost within
All the skies
All the nights
Every star
Every moon is mine
No more lies
Or disguise
This is me
It's paradise
Oh my serenity
Oh my liberty
Oh I paid my price
Oh my sincerity
Oh my humanity
Oh it feels so nice
I feel so plain jane
I have no costume
I have no hairdo
A limited attitude
But I can blend in
With the best of 'em
Bring me a crowd and
Watch me get lost within
Say The Word lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Come on lay your body down
No I won't let you down
Won't disappoint you
And go to where you've turned around
Where the lost is found
And I will join you
I'm transformed
When I see you're at peace
Call it selfish
Call it greed
I'll pick you up
I'll push you down
Be your devil
Be your clown
Say the word
I'll be your love
I'll be your hate
I'll take you now
I'll make you wait
Say the word
(Say the word)
Come on lay your body down
No I won't let you down
Won't disappoint you
And go to where you've turned around
Where the lost is found
And I will join you
I'm transformed
When I see you're at peace
Call it selfish
Call it greed
I'll pick you up
I'll push you down
Be your devil
Be your clown
Say the word
I'll be your love
I'll be your hate
I'll take you now
I'll make you wait
Say the word
(Say the word)
And it's hard to say
Better put this way
Words are a disgrace
To your sovereign reign
I will humbly state
No one takes my place
I'll pick you up
I'll push you down
Be your devil
Be your clown
Say the word
I'll be your love
I'll be your hate
I'll take you now
I'll make you wait
Say the word
(Say the word)
No I won't let you down
Won't disappoint you
And go to where you've turned around
Where the lost is found
And I will join you
I'm transformed
When I see you're at peace
Call it selfish
Call it greed
I'll pick you up
I'll push you down
Be your devil
Be your clown
Say the word
I'll be your love
I'll be your hate
I'll take you now
I'll make you wait
Say the word
(Say the word)
Come on lay your body down
No I won't let you down
Won't disappoint you
And go to where you've turned around
Where the lost is found
And I will join you
I'm transformed
When I see you're at peace
Call it selfish
Call it greed
I'll pick you up
I'll push you down
Be your devil
Be your clown
Say the word
I'll be your love
I'll be your hate
I'll take you now
I'll make you wait
Say the word
(Say the word)
And it's hard to say
Better put this way
Words are a disgrace
To your sovereign reign
I will humbly state
No one takes my place
I'll pick you up
I'll push you down
Be your devil
Be your clown
Say the word
I'll be your love
I'll be your hate
I'll take you now
I'll make you wait
Say the word
(Say the word)
Kerosene Lamp lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Have you seen a flame when it comes to life?
It was always waitin', it just needed a strike.
Have you got a match? 'Cause I'm lookin' to be lit.
Open up your stash, I'm a kerosene lamp.
I thought I told you I would need more than your average affection.
So, why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
I'm too cold.
Across this moonlit room, I see the silhouette of a man
sleepin' all alone on the edge of the bed.
But, I am right here. Are you really that tired?
Now, would it really be so hard to come to my side?
Oh, I thought I told you I would need more than just sometime attention.
Why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
Yeah, I'm too cold.
Has it been too long, am I just an old shoe?
When the trends are all gone, am I your go-to?
What did you see when you brought me in from the storm?
Our bed used to be so warm.
So, why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
Yeah, it's too cold.
Why should I ever be cold? Never be cold.
It was always waitin', it just needed a strike.
Have you got a match? 'Cause I'm lookin' to be lit.
Open up your stash, I'm a kerosene lamp.
I thought I told you I would need more than your average affection.
So, why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
I'm too cold.
Across this moonlit room, I see the silhouette of a man
sleepin' all alone on the edge of the bed.
But, I am right here. Are you really that tired?
Now, would it really be so hard to come to my side?
Oh, I thought I told you I would need more than just sometime attention.
Why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
Yeah, I'm too cold.
Has it been too long, am I just an old shoe?
When the trends are all gone, am I your go-to?
What did you see when you brought me in from the storm?
Our bed used to be so warm.
So, why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
Yeah, it's too cold.
Why should I ever be cold? Never be cold.
Halfway Around The World lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I don't get what people do.
They lie and they cheat and they steal from you.
So I, I made my own world.
I'm not sayin' I'm perfect yet, I've got my share of regrets.
But I, I'm doin' my best.
You make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
And you let me know that I'm not such a crazy girl.
All that it takes to make you happy, whatever you need to know
that you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
I know what some of 'em say. Let 'em talk, let 'em chip away.
You're not real without a broken heart.
Remember lyin' beneath the stars?
We could be on Earth or Mars.
I'm so good because I'm in your arms.
Oh, you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
And you let me know that I'm not such a crazy girl.
All that it takes to make you happy, whatever you need to know
that you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
When did we all get so distracted?
I think we've gone insane.
You make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
And you let me know that I'm not such a crazy girl.
All that it takes to make you happy, whatever you need to know
that you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
I don't get what people do.
They lie and they cheat and they steal from you.
They lie and they cheat and they steal from you.
So I, I made my own world.
I'm not sayin' I'm perfect yet, I've got my share of regrets.
But I, I'm doin' my best.
You make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
And you let me know that I'm not such a crazy girl.
All that it takes to make you happy, whatever you need to know
that you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
I know what some of 'em say. Let 'em talk, let 'em chip away.
You're not real without a broken heart.
Remember lyin' beneath the stars?
We could be on Earth or Mars.
I'm so good because I'm in your arms.
Oh, you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
And you let me know that I'm not such a crazy girl.
All that it takes to make you happy, whatever you need to know
that you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
When did we all get so distracted?
I think we've gone insane.
You make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
And you let me know that I'm not such a crazy girl.
All that it takes to make you happy, whatever you need to know
that you make me feel like I've gone halfway around the world.
I don't get what people do.
They lie and they cheat and they steal from you.
Na Miso lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
Nalingi namona yo na miso
Nalingi namona yo na miso
But we are world away
Yes, we are world away
Nataka kuku kumbatiya alakini siwezi
Nataka kuku kumbatiya alakini siwezi
Cuz we are world away
Yes, we are world away
Nina ucungu sana yakuwa mbali na wewe
Nina ucungu sana yakuwa mbali na wewe
Because we are world away
Because we are world away
Nalingi namona yo na miso
Nalingi namona yo na miso
But we are world away
Yes, we are world away
Nalingi namona yo na miso
But we are world away
Yes, we are world away
Nataka kuku kumbatiya alakini siwezi
Nataka kuku kumbatiya alakini siwezi
Cuz we are world away
Yes, we are world away
Nina ucungu sana yakuwa mbali na wewe
Nina ucungu sana yakuwa mbali na wewe
Because we are world away
Because we are world away
Nalingi namona yo na miso
Nalingi namona yo na miso
But we are world away
Yes, we are world away
Ghosts Of You lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
We were occupied
We never had to go outside
I was your alibi
We were planning our escape
We stayed up all night
With Lucy and the diamond sky
Drank cheap red wine
And talked ourselves to sleep
[Chorus:]
Please don't go
These ghosts of you
The only thing that help get me through the day
Baby please don't go
Cause I love you
You're the only one that will stay the same
We could laugh out loud
And sing until the sun came out
We took a secret vow that we would never change
You always loved to dance
I wish we had another chance
To go back in time and do it all again
[Chorus]
I don't wanna live forever
But if we could be together
Then I wouldn't mind infinity
I don't wanna live forever
Oh but I can still remember
No I wouldn't mind infinity
[Chorus x2]
We never had to go outside
I was your alibi
We were planning our escape
We stayed up all night
With Lucy and the diamond sky
Drank cheap red wine
And talked ourselves to sleep
[Chorus:]
Please don't go
These ghosts of you
The only thing that help get me through the day
Baby please don't go
Cause I love you
You're the only one that will stay the same
We could laugh out loud
And sing until the sun came out
We took a secret vow that we would never change
You always loved to dance
I wish we had another chance
To go back in time and do it all again
[Chorus]
I don't wanna live forever
But if we could be together
Then I wouldn't mind infinity
I don't wanna live forever
Oh but I can still remember
No I wouldn't mind infinity
[Chorus x2]
All I Can Do lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
When you're on your own
When you're at the fork in the road
You don't know which way to go
There's too many signs and arrows
You haven't left in a while
When you can't even fake a smile
When you feel ashamed
The uniform don't make you brave
[Chorus:]
All I can do is love you to pieces
Give you a shoulder to cry when you need it
When the day is long
And then night is coming down on you
All I can do
All I can do
All I can do
When you forget your name
The pleasure can't disguise your pain
You don't feel the same
I won't forget the love you made
[Chorus]
What a lovely day to shape your dreams
And you don't even have to sleep
You can make it what you want to be
You can fly away
You can change your name
Have a happy faith
If you'll be so real
Oh
[Chorus]
It's all that I can do
When you're at the fork in the road
You don't know which way to go
There's too many signs and arrows
You haven't left in a while
When you can't even fake a smile
When you feel ashamed
The uniform don't make you brave
[Chorus:]
All I can do is love you to pieces
Give you a shoulder to cry when you need it
When the day is long
And then night is coming down on you
All I can do
All I can do
All I can do
When you forget your name
The pleasure can't disguise your pain
You don't feel the same
I won't forget the love you made
[Chorus]
What a lovely day to shape your dreams
And you don't even have to sleep
You can make it what you want to be
You can fly away
You can change your name
Have a happy faith
If you'll be so real
Oh
[Chorus]
It's all that I can do
Spoke In Tongues lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I don't mean to get into your dreams
But you seem to think it's alright to destroy
You became such an opportunist
Somewhat dim it's a bad combonation
[Chorus:]
You can never erase
That you were not popular in school
You can't erase you were poor
And a no one
You can never erase who you were
No matter what you become
I know where you are from
And that you spoke in tongues
I know you're really just hurt and afraid
But you pretend that nothing gets to you
I'm not the one to dance on a break
But you're the one who bought me these dancing shoes
[Chorus]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah [x2]
I can still remember the day
When we first met
And I saw myself in you
I don't mean to rain on your parade
But the sky's getting dark
And there's nothing that you can do
But you seem to think it's alright to destroy
You became such an opportunist
Somewhat dim it's a bad combonation
[Chorus:]
You can never erase
That you were not popular in school
You can't erase you were poor
And a no one
You can never erase who you were
No matter what you become
I know where you are from
And that you spoke in tongues
I know you're really just hurt and afraid
But you pretend that nothing gets to you
I'm not the one to dance on a break
But you're the one who bought me these dancing shoes
[Chorus]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah [x2]
I can still remember the day
When we first met
And I saw myself in you
I don't mean to rain on your parade
But the sky's getting dark
And there's nothing that you can do
So Cold lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
All they know is to photograph
People when they're on their knees
Say your prayers and wear your black
And be grateful it's not you and me
How am I supposed to live
Knowing that they're dying
How am I supposed to laugh
Knowing that they're crying
When did we get so cold
When did we get so cold
When did we grow so old
So old
Raise me up to where the wind blows
Out of the ghettos oh
Raise me up to where the sun glows
Out of these shadows oh
When did we get so cold
When did we get so cold
When did we grow so old
So old
People when they're on their knees
Say your prayers and wear your black
And be grateful it's not you and me
How am I supposed to live
Knowing that they're dying
How am I supposed to laugh
Knowing that they're crying
When did we get so cold
When did we get so cold
When did we grow so old
So old
Raise me up to where the wind blows
Out of the ghettos oh
Raise me up to where the sun glows
Out of these shadows oh
When did we get so cold
When did we get so cold
When did we grow so old
So old
Waiting For The Sun lyrics - Chantal Kreviazuk
I don't need to be forgiven
I don't want your sympathy
It's a mad mad world
But it's still turning
Don't wanna get too complicated
Or get so dark that I can't see
Yeah it's a mad mad world
But I'm hoping
[Chorus:]
I'm waiting for the sun to shine
I wait until the day I die
I'm tired of living in the shadows
But I'm not giving up on me
It's a sad sad world
But I'm still waiting
I can't worry about tomorrow
What each new day's gunna bring
Cause every dark cloud
Has a silver lining
[Chorus x2]
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
[Chorus x2]
It's a mad mad world
Oh I'm gunna live my life

But it's still turning
Don't wanna get too complicated
Or get so dark that I can't see
Yeah it's a mad mad world
But I'm hoping
[Chorus:]
I'm waiting for the sun to shine
I wait until the day I die
I'm tired of living in the shadows
But I'm not giving up on me
It's a sad sad world
But I'm still waiting
I can't worry about tomorrow
What each new day's gunna bring
Cause every dark cloud
Has a silver lining
[Chorus x2]
