Don't Be A Victim (Old-School High-Energy Edit) 04:03
lyrics
buy track
Why be so sad When you've so much going for you? I've never had Someone that's made me feel so new Feeling your warmth Spurs me on 'til the evening Making me sure That you'll be waiting to greet me I've told you before that I'm going nowhere Not taking a step until I know that you're there I'm in for the duration and I'm out for the count Don't want you in moderation when I'm needing you now You're with me now, you're not with him I'll show you how - don't be a victim You know I'm glad To be here living beside you Would it feel bad If I were not here in this room? It took a while To find my way into your mind Now, when you smile I'm sure it's worth all of my time I've told you before that I belong to you If you're treating me right then we've got nothing to lose I'm hook, line and sinkered, and you're reeling me in Drawing me closer to the touch of your skin You're with me now, you're not with him I'll show you how - don't be a victim There's a future waiting for us If you just can give me your trust I've told you before that I'm committed to you If you can't accept that fact then you're blind to the truth The transaction's completed, I've delivered the goods There no chance of a refund - I don't think that you could You're with me now, you're not with him (Not with him, you're not with him) I'll show you how - don't be a victim (A victim, not a victim) There's a future waiting for us (For us, waiting for us) If you just can give me your trust (Give your trust, give me your trust) Leave your problems far behind you (Behind you, far behind you) Why should you doubt how I feel for you? (I feel you, I feel for you) We've a future as an item (An item, as an item) That come together, should you buy them (You buy them, should you buy them) Don't be a victim (A victim, not a victim) Don't be a victim

The Shop Across The Road 05:07
lyrics
buy track
Sid and Joan lived through two world wars Stillborn babies and near divorce Stayed together for the sake of the children, of course They stare out from the counter and onto the street To where the tyres and tarmac roam where once there were feet Without the people passing by the view's not complete And the shop across the road is an echo of the good old days But the memory of the shop across the road will one day fade Like Sid and Joan, the shop's seen better days Seems pretty empty now the children moved away Sid thought at least his son would want to stay They opened the shop back in 1953 Called it a "General Store and Haberdashery" Believed it was the roots of their growing family tree And the shop across the road is an echo of the good old days But the memory of the shop across the road will one day fade And the shop across the road's a memorial to better ways But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away And the long and winding road That leads to your door Became a dual carriageway You can't cross there no more When Sid died, Joan couldn't manage on her own She had to sell the shop to pay for the nursing home The shop across the road now sells mobile phones To the people who go shopping in hangers out of town Who drive there and back and in between walk up and down Bumping into trolleys and learning how to frown And the shop across the road is an echo of the good old days But the memory of the shop across the road will one day fade And the shop across the road's a memorial to better ways But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away

Love Is Not The Answer (Dub Version) 06:50
lyrics
buy track
From out of this window A sense of perspective falls in place Can't cope with your tears Forever cascading down your face Told you to leave me The smell of your perfume's faded Another finale We'd never have made it You've got to get yourself your own life Rather than waiting for the good times Don't hold your loneliness to ransom Just know that love is not the answer Where does the time go? And will you ever really know Of all my effort? Personal pride won't let it show Draw the conclusion That you weren't meant to be with me And what would it be To truly be carefree? You've got to get yourself your own life Rather than waiting for the good times Don't hold your loneliness to ransom Just know that love is not the answer You won't get half the things you're after If you let loving be your master Instead of living through the bad times You've got to get yourself your own life Time, and time again I've sworn that I'll not fall again Now is the time to say I'll definitely not fall again No Love is not the answer, love is not the answer Love is not the answer, love is not the answer You've got to get yourself your own life Rather than waiting for the good times Don't hold your loneliness to ransom Just know that love is not the answer You won't get half the things you're after If you let loving be your master Instead of living through the bad times You've got to get yourself your own life Love is not the answer, love is not the answer Love is not the answer, love is not the answer (You've got to get yourself your own life) Love is not the answer, love is not the answer (You've got to get yourself your own life) Love is not the answer, love is not the answer (You've got to get yourself your own life) (You've got to get yourself your own life) (You've got to get yourself your own life)

Hiding Inside Myself (Acoustic) 04:14
lyrics
You used to be there for me You said that you cared for me I'd never decide in haste But I knew I'd found my place So I put my life on hold And waited for love to grow Well that was five years ago How was I supposed to know? That I'd have to walk away And let the memories fade To lose what I thought I'd found Has twisted my life around Have I been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) Hoping for love to provide my help? Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself Well, I've had to carry on Confront all the things I've done There's bitterness in my head And words I should not have said Declare that enough's enough When I thought I'd self destruct Think only of other ways Make sure I have better days Have I been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) Hoping for love to provide my help? Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself If I've been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) And losing you left me overwhelmed Maybe this will be The opportunity that I need Wait for one day Just one more day Things could change I've been hiding And I've been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) Hoping for love to provide my help Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself And I'll occasionally think of you (Have I been hiding?) And all the things that we used to do And I'll wonder if I had really tried Would you too? (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Would you too, would you too, would you too? Would you too, would you too? (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, always hiding, always hiding from you (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, always hiding, from you (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, always hiding, from you (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, hiding, from you, from you
