Good Morning (is it over)
You kept me up all night
Talking about the world and how you wanna put it right
And I close my eyes and I finally see the light, this wouldn’t last forever
I fell asleep all day
Dreaming about what it means to stay awake.
Remembering that tune that I forgot while it was late, then the moment ended
Good morning is it over, all the love in the galaxy
Good morning is it over, won’t you bring it back to me
Good morning
All dressed up and nowhere to go,
There’s a world out there or so I’m told
Gotta go out there and show my face, and see if I can feel it
Stay out there till the evening ends, talking to other people’s friends
It’s not the same as it was before, it’s not what I remember
Good morning is it over, all the love in the galaxy
Good morning is it over, won’t you bring it back to me
Good morning
Good morning is it over, all the love in the galaxy
Good morning is it over, won’t you bring it back to me
Good morning
Holding on to what remains, seeing what I can save
Holding on to what remains, seeing what I can save
Holding on to what remains, seeing what I can save
Holding on to what remains, seeing what I can save
Good morning is it over, all the love in the galaxy
Good morning is it over, won’t you bring it back to me
Goodmorning
Good morning is it over, all the love in the galaxy
Good morning is it over, cause were still here from yesterday
Good morning
Were still here from yesterday….. good morning
Were still here from yesterday
Were still here from yesterday….. good morning

Heartbreaker – The Purple Shoes
Verse
I’ve been thinking about you today
If you were here what would you say
You left so soon and nobody knew it was coming
A heartbreaker breaking rules
Keep it simple keep it cool
Even though I never knew you at all
Chorus
Did you figure it out, did you learn to fly
Are you free falling tonight?
American boy, do you know what you left behind
American boy, do you know what you left behind
Verse
If I could let my head go
Find a way to make it flow
It won’t be the last time I hear you sing tonight
Sitting in your little room
Playing chords till you go crazy
But knowing that you’ll never play again is the hardest part
Chorus
Did you figure it out, did you learn to fly
Are you free falling tonight?
American boy, do you know what you left behind
Did you figure it out, did you learn to fly
Are you free falling tonight?
American boy, do you know what you left behind
American boy, do you know what you left behind

Do you know what you left behind? X3

Small town fairy tale – The Purple Shoes
Oh my darling what if we never come down
What if we stay up here forever on the inside looking out
Oh my darling, what if we spend our lives
Looking for something different
Looking to get out
Would they know?
Would they miss us?
If we left without a trace
Would it even make a difference?
Live and die and be remembered in a small town fairy tale
Oh my darling I might be giving you tough love
But I won’t go down with you, when you can’t get enough
All I’m saying from the outside looking in
You’re running from yourself in a race you cannot win
Would they know?
Would they miss us?
If we left without a trace
Would it even make a difference?
Live a die and be remembered in a small town fairy tale
Oh my darling it isn’t a friend of mine
This abusive acquaintance
Is taking all my time
All I’m saying it isn’t what it seems
This beautiful poison is haunting all my dreams
Cause my start was not fresh
And my canvas was creased
Would it even make a difference?
Live and die and be remembered in a small town fairy tale at least
Oh my darling what is this all about?
Can we take the bits from the pieces and figure it all out
We’ve put our cards on the table now let’s make a feast
I know you’re not a preacher but I’ll listen to you preach
Cause your start was not fresh
And your canvas was creased
Would it even make a difference?
Live and die and be remembered in a small town fairy tale at least
Oh my darling, I’ve spent all my life
Trying to make you different trying to turn you around
I keep asking myself why oh my darling
I’m sorry you never came down
I’m sorry you never came down
I’m sorry you never came down
I’m sorry you never came down

The rain has gone – The Purple Shoes
Don’t sink my ship I’m gunna battle on, tell me what you think but you might be wrong
I was young and strong I had a lot to learn, all that matters now is that the rain has gone
All that matters now is that the rain has gone
Not feeling good today can you help me find my way, through the darkness
Take me out on the town, show me what my life’s about
All that matters now is that the rain has gone
All that matters now is that the rain has gone
I wait for the sun, it’s not out
But at least the rain has gone
I wait for the sun, it’s not out
But at least the rain has gone
Solo
I wait for the sun, it’s not out
But at least the rain has gone
I wait for the sun, it’s not out
But at least the rain has gone
Don’t sink my ship I’m gunna battle on, tell me what you think but you might be wrong
I was young and strong I had a lot to learn, all that matters now is that the rain has gone
All that matters now is that the rain has gone
The rain has gone
The rain has gone
The rain has gone
The rain has gone

Angel Shoes - The Purple Shoes
Gunna put on Angels shoes and send him walking
Gunna put him on a bike to ride around the world
Go and catch that knowledge that you’re craving
Go and find yourself out there in the world
Make sure you right where ever you wonder
A solitary man feeling right at home
Make sure you make the most of where you lay your hat
And come back stronger that’s the way it goes
Don’t you come back till you’ve got stories to tell
Don’t you come back till you’ve been everywhere
Don’t you come back till you’ve got stories to tell
Don’t you come back, don’t you come back
Gunna put on Angels shoes and send him walking
Gunna put him on a bike to ride around the world
Go and catch that knowledge that you’re craving
Go and find yourself out there in the world
Don’t you come Back……..
Mellow Chorus
Don’t you come back………
Chorus
Don’t you come back…………..

And she sings for her love and she dares to believe

Strumming over the strings of time

While her and her lover walk in line…..

Hoping one day he’ll be free
So she can tell him how she feels….

Born to play - The Purple Shoes
Chorus
I was born to Play
I was born to play
I know it's hard to get your head around
when your mind don't work that way
I was born to play X3
Verse
I could live my life
out on the factory line
but i know that one day i would quit
I could get in line
but I'll never get it right
I was born for something and that's not it
i could compress my mind
Let my potential fly away
Fly away.......
Chorus
Verse
Oh don't get me Wrong
It's not that i don't want to work
I want to do something worthwhile
i'll stay up all night
to get that piece of music right
cause everybody needs a song
you can call me lazy
you can call us anything you want
but your wrong
Chorus
Solo X2

Ophelia – The Purple Shoes
Chorus
Oh Ophelia
I can feel ya on both sides
Oh Ophelia
Won’t you stop your winds from blowing for a while?
Verse
Oh, you were born a storm
You were born a windy day, But I prey
That you will stop, to let me through
For one day, before you blow me away
Chorus
Verse
Oh, lock your doors
They told me not to let you in
Oh but I am drawn, I can’t stop you by hiding
Your gunna take what’s yours, your gunna take what’s yours
Everything that I was looking for
Ooooo oooooo oooo Over Chorus
Chorus
Oh Ophelia
I can feel ya on both sides
Oh Ophelia
Won’t you stop your winds from blowing for a while?
Stop your winds from blowing for a while
Stop your winds from blowing for a while
