Dance With me Tonight (Laura’s Song)

I'm staring at the moon, like you always do
It's like I'm next to you
It's hard to heal the pain, when you're so far away
But I know I'll see you soon

You wanna know what I see when I see you looking at me
Do you wanna know? Do you really wanna know?

I see forever looking in your eyes
and when you hold me close, I know that every thing's alright
do me a favor before you go so soon
the stars are so bright, so will you dance with me tonight?

You're staring at the sky, like when you look in my eyes
In awe of the beauty you find
You're breathing so deep as you're thinking of me
Am I looking at the same night sky?

I wanna know what you see when I see you looking at me
Do I wanna know? Yes I think I wanna know

do you see forever looking in my eyes?
And when you hold me close, is everything alright?
Do me a favor before you go so soon
the stars are so bright, so will you dance with me tonight?

Out of everyone in the atmosphere you're here, with me
The fate that comes from the stars above brought your love to me
But we won't make a sound
Soon we'll be back in our own towns

I see forever looking in your eyes, and when you hold me close
The future's so bright

I see forever looking in your eyes
And when you hold me close, I know that every thing's alright
Do me a favor before you go so soon
The stars are so bright, so will you dance with me tonight

I'm staring at the moon, like you always do
In my mind I'm next to you

Waiting for a Miracle

I’m lying in the dark waiting for the sun to rise
Or something to pull me out of my bed
I’m looking at the clock. It’s 4 am again
Like I have an alarm inside my head

It’s like I’m in a whirlwind. It’s like I’m in a computer game
But there’s no escape
I’m waiting for a miracle
Some kind of sign
I’m waiting for a supernatural force to come and pull me out this time
I’m waiting for a miracle

I’m watching on the news; it’s on every channel too
This super catastrophe; it’s killing me
There’s people crying out; help me save me please
But I can’t so I just turn off my TV

It’s like it’s make believe. It’s like they’re all in a dream
But they’re not sleeping

They’re waiting for a miracle
Some kind of sign
They’re waiting for a supernatural force to come and pull them out this time
They’re waiting for a miracle

It’s like the world is ending; there’s no sign of humanity
Well that’s how it seems

We’re waiting for a miracle
Some kind of sign
We’re waiting for a supernatural force to come and pull us out one last time
We’re waiting for a miracle

We’re waiting for a miracle.

Tides of the Ocean

Mother says I need to stay away from you
Daddy says he don’t really care
Brother says you better look before you jump
And me? Well I don’t really give a…

I’m tossing and turning in my bed thinking how you were mine
I’m losing sleep and it’s wasting my time

I wanted you then I didn’t so I just walked away
And left without a trace
I needed you then I didn’t so I just pushed you away
With no time to explain
And my feelings for you just came then went
Like the tides if the ocean

Mother says she’s getting tired of all of this
Daddy says girl just let it be
Brother says don’t worry, there’s other fish in the
Other fish in the sea

I need you to know that this whole thing was me and never you
But the feelings are back and I don’t know what to do

I wanted you then I didn’t so I just walked away
And left without a trace
I needed you then I didn’t so I just pushed you away
With no time to explain
And my feelings for you just came then went
Like the tides if the ocean

Yes, it’s scaring me
‘Cause yes, you’re loving me
But the current is pulling me in
And I’m simply drowning

I wanted you then I didn’t
I walked away
I needed you then I didn’t
Then left without a trace

I wanted you then I didn’t so I just walked away
And left without a trace
I needed you then I didn’t so I just pushed you away
With no time to explain
And my feelings for you just came then went
Like the tides if the ocean

Tides of the…

Pity Me

Oh, pity me. Here comes another lonely day
One filled with hurt and misery. Well I’ll get over it eventually…

I’m trying to forget it now
But it’s like everybody knows somehow
I see it on their face as I walk downtown
That look of “girl, you’re just useless now”

And I just want to shout; it wasn’t my fault, from the start he was down
Always sad always with a frown
But when I open my mouth
None of the words come out

Is this the day from hell, well, maybe
I’ve been thinking about this lately
Please don’t give me your sympathy
Better yet, just don’t talk to me

I’m starting to calm
But I always see your face when I turn around
It’s so full of hurt, and mine’s so full of doubt
And you want to cry but the tears won’t come out

Because you’re down again
You’re just so sick of losing
Let me be your shoulder is what I want to shout
But none of the words come out

Is this the day from hell, well, maybe
I’ve been thinking about this lately
Please don’t give me your sympathy
Better yet, just don’t talk to me

I’m feeling so alone right now everybody’s talking but I don’t hear a sound
Why are they looking that way? Do they know that you hurt me?

Oh pity me, here comes another restless night
One filled with what ifs and you were rights
