Showcase - Live At The Wedgewood Rooms

1.
We can travel so far and wide Cross the borders, visit cities Journey on and into the night Stopping off when we feel weary But just what do we leave behind? Does it really need defining? Do we learn the lesson this time Or will we just keep driving? Remember things we did? What they said when we were kids? We could wave goodbye to this if we don't bother Now you're just staring at your 'phone Disregarding all you've known And you're trying to be the same as all the others Distant cousins say it's not right But I feel it getting warmer And the rain, it beats down all night Now there's no such thing as normal Cross the street on foot if you dare Take a step and take your chances Taking in what's left of the air We are so half-hearted Was it me or was it you? Who was the first to tear right through All the things we said we'd do with good intentions? And the only consequence Is no inconvenience Yet we'll find the true expense will not be mentioned I fall beneath the wheels Am I the only one that's left Who's sticking by the things we said? Maybe one day, but not yet, we'll find an option While you're playing with your 'phone Your friends and lovers sit alone Waiting for some kind of home that you can't give them Will there ever be a way We can accommodate this pace And preserve some empty space for all that follow? You're just staring into space Because you've never found that place And you've never had the time to really bother They're snapping at my heels I fall beneath the wheels We're not living our lives We're just desensitised We all pine for the past The present will not last
2.
You talk of our future As if it's been set in stone I err on the side of caution I'm accustomed to being alone While I know the things I do Are not acceptable to you It seems the more I try to stop The more I feel I'm giving up I want to be wanted I strive to be worth it You thought I was thoughtless Then walk - see if I care less Maybe I'm in denial Reinvention is drawing near Well, she's a sympathetic ear Making sense of all I fear And though I know I'm doing wrong I feel I've got to carry on I'm giving up hope of finding perfection I find it hard enough just seeking affection You think it's a joke - then why aren't you laughing? I'm a realist - is that such a bad thing? I'm not the person I once was I've been corrupted by my cause This is my one state of affairs In a State that's not aware I want to be wanted I strive to be worth it You thought I was thoughtless Then walk, go on - just see if I care less Tell me you don't need me And then I can be free Tell me you don't need me And then I can be free No giving in, no compromises
3.
I know all about you I've heard just what you do But I've only heard the one side The side that you left behind It could be that I don't know The whole thing - even so The result of all that you did Is that she has to live with it Living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many hang-ups What's left in her past gets in the way I'm living in your shadow If ever we'd have met We might have becom friends To share the same companion Must mean we've things in common But now I'm hearing daily How she can never be free Or forget all that happened And that's no consolation Living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many issues What's been in her past gets in the way Living in your shadow Feeling repercussions every day Maybe she'd forget you If she'd focus on the things I say Why were you the first Creating all this hurt? If I'd been there right from the start I'd have protected and guarded her heart But for now... I'm living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many hang-ups What's left in her past gets in the way Living in your shadow Knowing each and every single day If she can forget you Tomorrow could become today I'm living in your shadow

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 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 Hoping for love to provide my help? Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself If I've been hiding inside myself 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 And I've been hiding inside myself Hoping for love to provide my help Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself And I'll occasionally think of you And all the things that we used to do And I'll wonder if I had really tried Would you too? Would you too, would you too, would you too? Would you too, would you too? Hiding, always hiding, from you Hiding, always hiding, from you Hiding, hiding, from you, from you
5.
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 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 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 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 We've a future as an item That come together, should you buy them Leave your problems far behind you Why should you doubt how I feel for you? Don't be a victim Don't be a victim
6.
It's so bemusing, with so little time left That you still don't know yet, how I feel I've tried to make it as clear as any headline But short of reading my mind, you never knew We're near the ending of our time together And it's now or never, before we're gone Give in to your feelings For just this evening there's nothing more I've contemplated all the pending outcomes And you know I've found one that's for us But you're spending money as if there's no tomorrow And there is no tomorrow anymore Give in to your feelings For just this evening there's nothing more You're always so misleading For just one evening say nothing more If I tell you soon, will I seem a fool? Or will you agree that it's destiny? Will you think me crude, seeking only you? Or have I not seen that you're craving me? If it all goes wrong, will you be the one Standing there with me, waiting patiently? If we don't act soon, when we leave this room There'll be nothing left Give in to your feelings For just this evening there's nothing more Feelings are deceiving For just an evening think nothing more You're always so misleading For just one evening say nothing more
