Lyrics from "Older" album
Jesus to a Child
Fastlove
Older
Spinning the Wheel
It Doesn't Really Matter
The Strangest Thing
To Be Forgiven
Move On
Star People
You Have Been Loved
Jesus to a Child
Kindness
in your eyes
I
guess you heard me cry
You
smiled at me like Jesus to a child
I'm
blessed I know
Heaven
sent and heaven stole
You
smiled at me like Jesus to a child
And
what have I learned from all this pain
I
thought I never feel the same about anyone or anything again
But
now I know
Chorus:
When
you find a love
When
you know that it exists
Then
the lover that you miss
Will
come to you on these cold, cold nights
When
you've been loved
When
you know it holds such bliss
Then
the lover that you kissed
Will
comfort you when there's no hope in sight
Sadness
in my eyes
No
one guessed and no one tried
You
smiled at me like Jesus to a child
Loveless
and cold
With
your last breath you saved my soul
You
smiled at me like Jesus to a child
And
what have I learned from all these tears
I've
waited for you all those years
Then
just when it began he took your love away
But
I still say
Chorus
So
the words you couldn't say
I'll
sind them for you
And
the love we would have made
I'll
make it for two
For
every single memory
Has
become a part of me
You
will always be my love
Well
I've been loved so I know just what love is
And
the lover thet I kissed is always by my side
Oh
the lover I still miss... was Jesus to a child

Fastlove
Looking
for some education
Made
my way into the night
All
that bullshit conversation
Baby
can't you read the signs ?
I
won't bore you with the details baby
I
don't even want to waste your time
Let's
just say that maybe you could help to ease my mind
Baby,
I ain't Mr. Right
Chorus:
But
if you're looking for fastlove
If
that's love in your eyes
It's
more than enough
Had
some bad luck
So
fastlove is all that I've got on my mind
What's there to thinks about baby ?
Looking
for some affirmation
Made
my way into the sun
My
friends got their ladies
They
all have babies
But
I just want to have some fun
I
won't bore you with the detail baby
Gotta
get there on your own sweet time
Let's
just say that maybe you could help to ease my mind
Baby,
I ain't Mr. Right
Chorus
What's
there to think about baby
Get
yourself some lessons in love
In
the absence of security I made my way into the night
Stupid
Cupid keeps on calling me but I see nothing in his eyes
I
miss my baby
I
miss my baby, oh yeah
So
why don't we make a little room in my BMW babe
Searching
for some peace of mind
Hey
I'll help you find it
I
do believe that we are practicing the same religion
You
really ought to get up now
Looking for some affirmation ?
- Chommar Ipiet Ira Hani Apop -
Older
I
should have known it seemed too easy
You
were there and I was feeling blue
Strange
Don't
you think I'm looking older ?
But
something good has happened to me
Change
is a stranger you have yet to know
Well
you're out of time
I'm
letting go
You'll
be fine well that much I know
You're
out of time
I'm
letting go
I'm
not the man that you want
I
should have known it seemed too easy
You
were there I thought I needed you
Strange
Don't
you think I'm looking older ?
But
something good has happened to me
Change
is a stranger who never seems to show
Well
you're out of time
I'm
letting go
You'll
be fine ( or maybe you won't )
You're
out of time
I'm
letting go
I'm
not the man that you want
I
never should have looked back in your direction
I
know that just the same old fights again, baby
These
are wasted days without affection
I'm
not that foolish anymore
- Chommar Ipiet Ira Hani Apop -
Spinning the Wheel
Spin the wheel
Five
o'clock in the morning you ain't home
I
can't help thinking that's strange
Baby
I just want you to know I won't go through this again
Yes,
those clouds are closing in
Chorus:
And
I will not accept this as a part of my life
I
will not live in fear of what may be
And
the lessons that I learned ...
I
would rather be alone than watch you spinning that wheel for me
You've
got a thing about danger
Ain't
you getting what you want from me
You've
got a thing about strangers
Baby
that's what we used to be
You've
got a thing about danger baby
I
guess that hungry just can't see
One
of this days you gonna bring some home to me
Six
o'clock in the morning you ain't home
I
can't help thinking it's strange
It
seems that everybody takes their chances these days
Oh
yeah, we're standing in the rain
Chorus
How
can you love me when you're playing with my life
You
say give me time and I'll do better I swear
Give
me time and I'll lead you back to despair
And
I don't want to go back there
- Chommar Ipiet Ira Hani Apop -
It Doesn't Really Matter
It
doesn't really matter that I loved you
How
many reasons call
It
doesn't really matter at all
It
doesn't really matter that I failed to
Break
down your father's wall
It
doesn't really matter at all
Why
tell me you don't understand when you do
I
thought I had something to say
But it doesn't really matter at all...
I
changed my name to be rid of the things that I want from you
It's
strange but the name is a name and the truth is a truth
Oh, there is always, always someone there to remind me
So
I learn to live with shame
I
tell myself I feel no pain
But
I do and if I have to tell you
Then it doesn't really matter at all...
And
it's no good looking back
Because
time is a thief and I believe that I'm too old for that
We're
just saying the things that we have said forever
It
doesn't really matter that I loved you
How
many reasons fall
It's
too bad
It
really doesn't matter at all

The Strangest Thing
Take
my life
Time
has been twisting the knife
I
don't recognize people I care for
Take
my dreams
Chldish
and weak at the seams
Please
don't analyse, please just be there for me
The
things that I know nobody told me
The
seeds that are sown they still control me
Chorus:
There's
a liar in my head
There's
a thief upon my bed
And
the strangest thing is I cannot get my eyes open
Take
my hand
Lead
me to some peaceful land
That
I cannot find inside my head
Wake
me with your love
It's
all I need
But
in all this time still no one said
If
I had not asked would you have told me
If
you call this love why don't you hold me
Chorus
Give
me something I can hold
Give
me something to believe in
I
am frightened for my soul, please, please
Make
love to me, send love through me, heal me with your crime
Tha
only one who ever new me, we've waisted so much time
So
much time
- Chommar Ipiet Ira Hani Apop -
To Be Forgiven
I'm
going down
Won't
you help me
Save
me from myself
I
hear the sound of the memory
Maybe
time will tell
Suddenly
my life is like a river
Taking
me places I don't want to go
But
like all good men who swin too well
It
takes all thet I have just to cry for help
Then
that voice in my head tells me no
I'm
going down
Won't
you help me
Save
me from myself
I
hear the sound of the memory
Maybe,
who can tell ?
Let
me live my life beside the river
Take
me to places where a child can grow
And
then maybe the boy inside will forsake me
Maybe
the child in me will just let me go
I'm
going down
The
cold, cold water is rushing in
I'm
going down
And
I would beg to be forgiven
If
I knew my sin

Move On
I've
been in and out of favor with lady luck
I
gotta tell you
I've
seen things I never wanted to see
I've
got to get back on my feet
I
feel like I've been sleeping
Sweet,
sweet time
Has
been a real good friend of mine
Waiting
for that change of season
Oh
the winter's been so long
Serching
for that rhyme or reason
You've
just got to
Chorus:
Move
on
Hold
it together, move on
Life's
so short, move on
Only
time will set you free
You
put your tears behind you
Better
get yourself where you wanna be
I
think of all the days and nights I spent crying
And
I move on
I've
been in and out of favor with love
Because
I gotta tell you
I've
been things I never wanted to be
And
then some angel called me up
He
told me I was sleeping
Said
"don't waise time 'cos even angels say goodbye"
Waiting
for that change of season
Oh
the winter's been so long
Serching
for that rhyme or reason
You've
just got to
Chorus
And
oh, there goes another season
Getting
hard to find a decent sonng to play
But
oh, I guess I got my reasons
Everybody
thinks I'm doing a.o.k
They
ought to know by now
Chorus
I'm gonna be luck in love someday

Star People
Star
people
Counting
your money till you soul turns green
Star
people
Counting
the cost of your desire to be seen
I
do not count myself among you
I
may be living in a dream
It's
just seem to many of you
Can't
help but hope
There's
a difference between... you and me
You're
a star
(
I'm talking to you )
You're
a star
Maybe
your mama gave you up boy
(
It's the same old same old )
Maybe
your daddy didn't love you enough girl
Star
people
Never
forget your secret safe with me
Just
look at all wonderful people
Trying
to forget they had to pay for what you see
It's
a deam
With
a nightmare stuck in the middle
But
where would you be
Without
all of that attention
You'd
die
I'd
die
We'd
die wouldn't we
(
Well wouldn't we )
Big,
big star
Sould
go far
Talk
about your mother
Talk
about your father
Talk
about the people
Who
have made you what you are
Talk
about your teacher
The
bully boy who beat you
Talk
about the people who have paid
For
that new sports car
Did
you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do
you have a little tale to tell
Is
that why you're a star ?
Is
that what makes a star ?
Nothing
comes for nothing, baby
That
fame and fortune's heaven sent
And
who gives a f*** about your probems, darling
When
you can pay the rent
How much is enough ?
- Chommar Ipiet Ira Hani Apop -
You Have Been Loved
She
takes the back road and the lane
Past
the school that has no changed
In
all this time
She
thinks of when the boy was young
All
the battles she had won
Just
to give him life
That
man
She
loved that man
For
all his life
But
now we meet to bring him flowers
And
only God knows why
For
what's the use in pressing pamls
When
children fade in mother's arms
It's
a cruel world
We've
so much to loose
And
what we have to learn we rarely choose
So
if it's God who took her son
He
cannot be the one living in her mind
Take
care my love, she said
Don't
think that God is dead
Take
care my love, she said
You have been loved
If
I was weak, forgive me
But
I was terrified
You
brushed my eyes with angels wings, full of love
The
kind that makes devils cry
So
these days
My
life has changed
And
I'll be fine
But
she just sits and counts the hours
Searching
for her crime
So
what's the use of pressing palms
If
you won't keep such love from harm
It's
a cruel world
You've
so much to prove
And
heaven helps the ones who wait for you
Well
I've no daughters, I've no sons
Guess
I'm the only one
Living
in my life
Take
care my love, he said
Don't
think that God is dead
Take
care my love, he said
You have been loved
