Northern Star

Goin' Down

I Turn To You

If That Were Me

Never Be The Same Again

Why

B-Sides

Go

I've gotta go
find another direction
I've gotta go
I wanna get your attention

I am so sorry that it went this way
I just can't hold on anymore
The feeling's gone, I must move on
There's nothing left worth fighting for
Can't love you anymore, anymore

Go
Find what you're looking for
Go
you've lost me that's for sure

I've gotta go
find another direction
I've gotta go
I wanna get your attention for once

I've never been in love before
But this is where it has to end
I just can't love you anymore
Don't even want you as friend
Can't love you anymore, anymore

Go
Find what you're looking for
Go
You've lost me that's for sure,

It all started in another dimension (x3)

You may have took my breath
you didn't take my dictation

They say that love is blind (x3)

I've never been the leaving kind

I've gotta go
find another direction
I've gotta go
I want to get your attention for once

Northern Star

She tried to catch a falling star
Thinking that she had gone to far
She did but kept it hidden well
Until she cracked and then she fell

If all the history is true
She's gonna end up just like you
You made it to the other side
But tell me who will be my guide?

They build you up
So they can tear you down
Trust the ocean,
You'll never drown
Who is next?
Who's gonna steal your crown?
You'll see

I have learned my lesson well
The Truth is out there I can tell
Don't look back and don't succumb to their lies
And goodbyes
Northern Star

Fulfill a longing in your heart
And we will never be apart
And if they dare to question you
Just tell them that our love is true

They buy your dreams so they can sell you soul
Is it any wonder we've lost control?
Feelings found
Feelings gone

I have learned my lesson well
The truth is out there I can tell
Don't look back and don't succumb to their lies
And goodbyes

Live your life without regret
Don't be someone who they forget
When you're lost reach out for me
And you'll see
She's not far

Northern Star

I have learned my lesson well
The Truth is out there I can tell
Don't look back and don't succumb to their lies
And goodbyes

Live your life without regret
Don't be someone who they forget
When you're lost reach out for me
And you'll see
She's not far

Northen Star

Goin' Down

How come I didn?t see you were making fun of me?
How dare you change the rules
You made me look a fool
Well now you?re gonna see the last
laugh?s not on me
What am I gonna do to get my revenge on you?
You?re goin? down
Goin? down

Was it just another line or did I misread the sign?
What else could I do?
I was so into you
With all this bad luck I?ve had my karma must be bad
You played your little game, oh what a shame
You?re goin? down
Goin? down, goin? down

I?m singin? it loud and I don?t care
I?m singin? it proud everywhere

Now I feel no remorse, my life is back on course
From this little hitch I have become a superbitch
But don?t be afraid by the confession I?ve made
I am not a whore I have gone hardcore
You?re goin? down
Goin? down Goin? down, goin? down

I?m singin? it loud and I don?t care
I?m singin? it proud everywhere
I?m singin? it loud and I don?t care
I?m singin? it proud everywhere, ha, ha, ha

You?re goin? down, goin? down. You?re goin? down. Goin? down, ha, yeah

I Turn To You

When the world is darker than I can understand
When nothing turns out the way I planned
When the sky tunrs grey and there's no end in sight
When I can't sleep through the lonely night

I turn to you
Like a flower leaning toward the sun
I turn to you
'Cos you're the only one
Who can turn me around when i'm upside down
I turn to you

When my insides are wracked with anxiety
You have touch that will quiet me
You lift my spirit
You melt the ice
When i need inspiration
When i need advice

I turn to you
Like a flower leaning toward the sun
I turn to you
'Cos you're the only one
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down
I turn to you

Where would I be?
What would i do?
If you'd never helped me through
I hope someday if you've lost your way
You could turn to me like I turn to you

I turn to you
Like a flower leaning toward the sun
I turn to you
'Cos you're the only one
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down
I turn to you

I turn to you
When fear tells me to turn around
I turn to you
'Cos you're the only one
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down
I turn to you
I turn to you
I turn to you.

If That Were Me

Where do they go and what do they do?
There walking on by,they're looking at you
Some people stop some people stare
But would they help you and do they care?

How
Did you fall?
Did you fall at all?
Are you happy where you are?
Sleeping underneath the stars
When it's cold is it your hope that keeps you warm

A spare bit of change is all that I give
How is that gonna help when you get no where to live?
Some turn away so they don't see
I bet you'd look If That Were Me

How
Did you fall?
Did you fall at all?
Is it lonely where you are?
Sleeping in between the cars
When it thunders where do you hide from the storm?

Could you ever forgive my self pitty?
When you got nothing and your living on the streets of the city
I couldn't live without my phone
But you dont even have a home

How
Did we fall?
Can we get up at all?
Are we happy where we are?
On our lonely little star
When it's cold is it your hope that keeps you warm?

Where do they go and what do they do?
They're walking on by,they're looking at you
They're walking on by,they're looking at you

Never Be The Same Again

Come on
Ooh yeah
Never be the same again
I call you up whenever things go wrong
You're always there
You are my shoulder to cry on
I can't believe it took me so long
To take the forbidden step
Is this something that I might regret
(Come on come on)
Nothing ventured nothing gained
(You are the one)
A lonely heart that can't be tamed
(Come on come on)
I'm hoping that you feel the same
This is something that I can't forget
I thought that we would just be friends
Things will never be the same again
It's just the beginning it's not the end
Things will never be the same again
It's not a secret anymore
Now we've opened up the door
Starting tonight and from now on
We'll never, never be the same again
Never be the same again
Now I know that we were close before
I'm glad I realised I need you so much more
And I don't care what every one will say
It's about you and me
And we'll never be the same again
I though that we would just be friends
(Oh yeah)
Things will never be the same again
Never be the same again
It's just the beginnning it's not the end
(We've only just begun)
Things will never be the same again
It's not a secret anymore
Now we've opened up the door
(Opened up the door)
Starting tonight and from now on
We'll never never be the same again
Never be the same again

Left Eye (rap):
Nite and day
Black beach sand to red clay
The US to UK
NYC to LA
From sidewalks to highways
See it'll never be the same
What I'm sayin' my mind frame never changed til you came and rearranged
But sometimes it seems completely forbidden
To discover those feelings that we kept so well hidden
When there's no comptetiton
And you render my condition
Though improbable it's not impossible
For a love that could be unstoppable
But wait
A fine line's between fate and destiny
Do you belive in the things that were just meant to be?
When you tell me the stories of your quest for me
Picturesque is the picture you paint effortlessly and
As our energies mix and begin to mulitply
Everyday situations
They start to simplfy
So things will never be the same between you and I
We intertwined our life forces and now we're unified

(Back to Melanie C.)
I thought that we would just be friends
Things will never be the same again
It's just the beginning it's not the end
Things will never be the same again
It's not a secret anymore
Now we've opened up the door
Starting tonight and from now on
We'll never never be the same again
(Come on come on)
Things will never be the same again
(You are the one)
Never be the same again....(repeat)

Why

Why does the rain fall from the sky?
How can a sugar pill take this pain away?
I should have known that you would break my heart
You've ended something that didn't have a chance to start
Put out the stars
Rub out the sky
Look to the future
Wipe the teardrop from my eye
Shut off the sun
Put out the light
Want you to tell me how you're gonna make it right
Why am i cying over you?
Why?
'Cos ther's nothing else that I can do
Why do I always look a fool?
Why?
Wish I'd read the signs and left you well alone
God, I wanna call you but I can't pick up the phone
Put out the stars
Rub out the sky
Look to the future
Wipe the teardrop from my eye
Shut out the sun
Bring on the night
Want you to show me how you're gonna make it right
Why am I cryin' over you?
Why?
'Cos there's nothing else that I can do
Why do I always look a fool?
Why?
Why am I crying over you?
(Tell me why. Why does the rain fall from the sky?)
Why?
'Cos there's nothing else that I can do
(Why do the tears fall from my eyes?)
Why do I always look a fool?
(Why does the rain fall from the sky?)
Why?
(Oh tell me why)
(Tell me why)

Suddenly Monday

suddenly monday, you're here again
where was the weekend i lost it again
run to the bus stop, it's never on time
i couldn't care less 'cos you make me feel fine
whenever i'm down you're always around
maybe this time true love i've found
what would i do if i didn't have you
the things that you say, the things that you do
you make me high
i wish that you knew
i wish i could tell you together we'd fly
open your eyes
step into my life
stay by the station every day
so much to ask you, can't find a way
wherever you're going, i'll come along
whatever your star sign, wherever you're from
at the end of the day, you're still around
my head's in the clouds feet on the ground
maybe i should, and maybe you would
maybe tonight, if only we could
you make me high
i wish that you knew
i wish i could tell you/together we'd fly
open your eyes

Ga Ga

I don't want your adoration
I don't want your train stopping at my station
You hurt me, and I'm grateful
I never ever felt anything stranger

Ga ga, crazy, foolish for wanting you
Stupid, cupid
He's a drag he's not like you

People say that it's insane we love to feel the pain

And it hurts
Yes it hurts
Let it hurt

I don't want emotion hassle
I just want another bite of the apple
Dark thoughts need satisfaction
We're gonna crash
Lets make it happen

Ga ga, crazy, foolish for wanting you
Stupid, cupid
He's a drag he's not like you

People say that it's insane we always go for pain

And it hurts
Yes it hurts
Let it hurt

This will never be over
And you will always be mine
You've gotta feed my hunger, baby
I ain't ready to die

Ga ga, crazy, foolish for wanting you
Stupid, cupid, he's a drag he's not like you

Ga ga, crazy, foolish for wanting you
Stupid, cupid, he's a drag he's not like you

Ga ga, crazy, foolish for wanting you
Ga ga, crazy, foolish for wanting you

And it hurts
And it hurts
Let it hurt

And it hurts
And it hurts
Let it hurt

And it hurts
And it hurts
Let it hurt

And it hurts
And it hurts
Let it hurt

And it hurts

Be The One

The situation's getting boring
You're not gonna spoil another day
I don't expect you to be calling
You're always gonna act that way
Said those lines so many times
Heard it all before
What makes you think that I will keep
Hanging round for more
If you're gonna be the one, be the one, who ooh
Moves my heaven and earth
You wanna be the one, be the one, who ooh
Shares my hunger and thirst
You see the other ones are hanging on and ooh ooh
They've got nothing on you
You wanna be the one, be the one
The only one

You say you're hooked on me
But where were you last night
Because when you looked at me yeah
You can hold my eyes
Saying things you never mean
That's no big surprise
Telling me that you're the one
I'm tired of the lies

Be the one, be the one, who ooh
Moves my heaven and earth
You wanna be the one, be the one, who ooh
Shares my hunger and thirst
You see the other ones are hanging on
They've got nothing on you
You wanna be the one, be the one
The only one

I've got no time for bitterness
I wanna move away from this
I've found myself, somebody, ooh
Ooh, ooh

He's gonna be the one, be the one, who ooh
Moves my heaven and earth
He's gonna be the one, be the one, who ooh
Shares my hunger and thirst
You see the other ones are hanging on and ooh ooh
They've got nothing on you
You wanna be the one, be the one
The only one

I've got no time for bitterness
I wanna move away from this
I've found myself, somebody ooh Ooh ooh

Closer

Loving you madly will be forever
I see the ocean in your eyes when we're together
There are no boundaries
There are no limits
My heart has been embraced now that you're in it
Hold me closer to your dreams
Closer to your fears
Close to hear your laughter
Hold me when you're close to tears
Time passes by seconds into minutes
Every field and flower fades but love is infinite
There are no boundaries
There are no limits
My heart's a bigger place now that you're in it
Hold me closer to your dreams
Closer to your fears
Close to hear your laughter
Hold me when you're close to tears
I wanna be the one you tell your secrets to
All I want is to be closer
Closer to you
How tight can you hold me?
How long can we stay awake?
How hard can we laugh?
How much love can we make?
Hold me closer to you dreams
Closer to your fears
Close to hear your laughter
Hold me when you're close to tears
I wanna be the one you tell your secrets to
All I want is to be closer
Closer to you

Feel The Sun

These thoughts can be evil and often deceive
Gotta believe that I can overcome
My fears are the worst and they always return

I never learn
Feel like I don't belong
Lost in the wreckage
Of a million bad dreams
Hard to function
I just need some routine
God, it's obscene
When did they stop the fun?
I knew that something must be done
To save the person I'd become
That's why I had to run away
Feel the sun
Waves crash like my emotion
Life has begun
Now I will be safe from the storm
I found the one
This angel's my salvation
I'm feeling strong
You will be there if I fall
Guilt is no use it will tarnish your soul
Just let it go
The battle will soon be won
Cold in the shadow of who I should be
There's a fire burning deep inside me
Helping me see
Only I hold the key
And now I stand here unafraid
Proud of everyting I had
That's why I had to run away

Feel the sun
Waves crash like my emotion
Life has begun
Now I will be safe from the storm
I found the one
This angel's my salvation
I'm feeling strong
You will be there if I fall
There's so much energy
At last I an be free
I am the person I was looking for
Feel the sun
Waves crash like my emotion
Life has begun
Now I will be safe from the storm
I found the one
This angel's my salvation
I'm feeling strong I'll never fall
You are there when I call.

I Want You Back

Everyday in my thoughts
You're my one obsession
Can't go on, need a fix
This is my confession

When you're not around the nights go on
You may be with her, but with me you belong
I am the only one
I am the only one

I want you back
Whatever you do
I want you back
I've got nothing to prove
I don't care what you said
Want you back in my bed
I want you back
I want you back

Can't let go, guess you know
Now I've blown my cover
What I want, what I need
Is no other lover

Try to deny it but you know it's true
No-one can make you feel like I do
I am the only one
I am the only one

I want you back
Whatever you do
I want you back
I've got nothing to prove
I don't care what you said
Want you back in my bed
I want you back
I want you back

You can't keep running away from me
When something feels so right then it's meant to be
Like a dog with a bone I won't let go
Won't let go

Try to deny it but you know it's true
No-one can make you feel like I do
I am the only one
I am the only one

I want you back (I want you back)
Whatever you do
I want you back (I want you back)
I've got nothing to prove
I don't care what you said
Want you back in my bed
I want you back
I want you back

I want you
I need you
I want you
I need you

I want you, I need you
I want you, I need you
I want you, I need you
Ooh

Angel On My Shoulder

Sometimes when I'm lonely
I can feel you on my breeze
In the darkness, when I'm sleeping
You're the colour in my dreams

And I'm not alone
No I'm not alone

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder
I know you care (I know you care)
I know you're there
Angel

Sometimes when I'm nervous
And I try to catch my breath
You're the space between my heartbeats
You're the reason I feel blessed

And I'm not alone
No I'm not alone

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder
Now I'm not scared (now I'm not scared)
I know you're there
Angel

I know you watch me when I'm good or bad
But I could never let you down
You always understand

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder
I know you care (I know you care)

You're the angel on my shoulder
You're always there (you're always there)
You're the angel on my shoulder
Now I'm not scared (now I'm not scared)

I know you're there
You're everywhere
Angel
