Savage Garden Self Title Debut CD Lyrics

She's taking her time making up the reasons to justify all the hurt inside Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes everyone's got a theory about the bitter one They're saying, "Mamma never loved her much" and, "Daddy never keeps in touch that's why she shies away from human affection" but somewhere in a private place She packs her bag for outer space and now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come And she'll say to him... I would fly to the moon & back if you'll be...If you'll be my baby Got a ticket for a world where we belong so would you be my baby? She can't remember a time when she felt needed if love was red then she was color blind All her friends they've been tried for treason and crimes that were never defined She's saying, "Love is like a barren place and reaching out for human faith is like a journey I just don't have a map for" so baby's gonna take a dive and Push the shift to overdrive, send a signal that she's hanging All her hopes on the stars, what a pleasant dream... I would fly to the moon & back if you'll be...If you'll be my baby Got a ticket for a world where we belong so would you be my baby?

Any time I need to see your face, I just close my eyes And I am taken to a place where your crystal mind and magenta feelings take up shelter in the base of my spine sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola I don't need to try and explain; I just hold on tight And if it happens again I might move so slightly to the arms and the lips and the face of the human cannonball that I need to, I want to Come stand a little bit closer, breathe in and get a bit higher You'll never know what hit you when I get to you Ooh, I want you I don't know if I need you but ooh, I'd die to find out Ooh, I want you I don't know if I need you but ooh, I'd die to find out I'm the kind of person who endorses a deep committment; getting comfy getting perfect Is what I live for; but a look, then a smell of perfume its like I'm down on the floor and I don't know what I'm in for Conversation has a time and a place in the interaction of a lover and mate, but the time of talking, using symbols, using words can be likened to a deep sea diver who is swimming with a raincoat Come stand a little bit closer, breathe in and get a bit higher You'll never know what hit you when I get to you Ooh, I want you I don't know if I need you but ooh, I'd die to find out Ooh, I want you I don't know if I need you but ooh, I'd die to find out Any time I need to see your face, I just close my eyes And I am taken to a place where your crystal mind and magenta feelings take up shelter in the base of my spine sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola I don't need to try and explain; I just hold on tight And if it happens again I might move so slightly to the arms and the lips and the face of the human cannonball that I need to, I want to Ooh, I want you I don't know if I need you but ooh, I'd die to find out Ooh, I want you I don't know if I need you but ooh, I'd die to find out So can we find out?

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy I'll be your hope I'll be your love, be everything that you need I'll love you more with every breath truly, madly, deeply do I will be strong I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on A new beginning, a reason for living, a deeper meaning I want to stand with you on a mountain, I want to bathe with you in the sea I want to lay like this forever until the sky falls down on me And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky, I'll make a wish Send it to heaven then make you want to cry the tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of the highest powers In lonely hours, the tears devour you I want to stand with you on a mountain, I want to bathe with you in the sea I want to lay like this forever until the sky falls down on me Oh can you see it baby? You don't have to close your eyes 'Cause it's standing right here before you, all that you need will surely come I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy I'll be your hope I'll be your love, be everything that you need I'll love you more with every breath truly, madly, deeply do I want to stand with you on a mountain, I want to bathe with you in the sea I want to lay like this forever until the sky falls down on me

And we stare each other down like victims in the grind Probing all the weakness and hurt still left behind and we cry These tears of pearls, we do it, oh we do it Is love really the tragedy the way you might describe? Or would a thousand lovers still leave you cold inside? Make you cry...these tears of pearls All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls Stolen pearl devotions we keep locked away from all the world Your kisses are like pearls, so different and so rare But anger stole the jewels away and love has left you bare Made you cry...these tears of pearls Well I could be the tired joker, pour my heart to get you in, sacrifice my happiness just so I could win, maybe cry...these tears of pearls All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls Stolen pearl devotions we keep locked away from all the world We twist and turn where angels burn, like fallen soldiers we will learn That once forgotten, twice removed, Love will be the death...the death of you All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls Stolen pearl devotions we keep locked away from all the world

Well I'd like to take you as I find you, imagine our clothes are on the floor Feel my caress so soft and gentle, so delicate you cry for more But you know baby, you know baby does it right, And you know baby does it right Universe inside of your heart, you gotta let me know so you can be free baby You wanted it so much, and now that its over you don't know what you want Put time in a capsule, two minds consensual, entwined to perfection, if we could... Cuddle up close lay on my chest now, listen my heart beat's coming down If you get tired you close your eyes now, when you wake up I won't be found 'Cause I know baby, I know you're the nervous kind, with so much going on in your mind Universe inside of your heart, you gotta let me know so you can be free baby You wanted it so much, and now that its over you don't know what you want But let me tell you that, this time (this time) I'm gonna make you mine (I won't let you go) 'Cause I know this time (this time), I'm gonna make sure I look out for me 'Cause you know baby, well you know baby does it right, and you know baby does it right You will only end up lost in lonliness and wake up with the words already on your lips So I'll let you go, baby...So I'll let you go... Universe inside of your heart, you gotta let me know so you can be free baby You wanted it so much, and now that its over you don't know what you want

The moonlight...shines down interstellar beams and the groove tonight Is something more than you've ever seen, the stars and planets taking shape, a stolen kiss has come too late in the moonlight Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing; in the moonlight Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing; You're never safe 'till you see the dawn and if the clock strikes past midnight The hope is gone to move under...the moonlight Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing; in the moonlight Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing; Move...Closer...Passion...Stronger There's a magic only two can tell in the dark night Ultra violet is a wicked spell, the stars and planets taking shape, a stolen kiss has come too late in the moonlight Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing; Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing; Moving on...Moving all night

If there's a way that you could be everything you want to be, would you complain that it came too easy? Just like the games with you and me, A resolution hard to see, But that's O.K. 'cause I don't see things that are plain to see I've got a dream to take you over, exploding like a supernova I'm gonna crash into your world, and that's no lie You want to give ecstasy delivered with certainty But you're afraid that the pleasure won't be needed In a way, we're the same two people looking out to sea for a wave that would carry all our fantasies If there's a way to infiltrate you, sway your mind and complicate you I'm gonna crash into your world, and that's no lie Let your body move into the doorway, to the disco inside your head (violet) Wear a color that you want to cling to, the color inside your head (violet) Contemplate jealousy intermixed with urgency A million things take a damned good shot at you and me If there's a way to infiltrate you, sway your mind and complicate you I'm gonna crash into your world, and that's no lie Let your body move into the doorway, to the disco inside your head (violet) Wear a color that you want to cling to, the color inside your head (violet) I'm gonna take you, I'll do my best to break you I'm gonna take you higher, and that's no lie Common sense is a game many people don't like to play But give it in and the moment takes you either way I've got a dream to take you over, exploding like a supernova I'm gonna crash into your world, and that's no lie Let your body move into the doorway, to the disco inside your head (violet) Wear a color that you want to cling to, the color inside your head (violet) If there's a way that you could be everything you want to be, would you complain that it came too easy? In a way, we're the same two people looking out to sea for a wave that would carry all our fantasies

I never thought I'd change my opinion again, But you moved me in a way that I've never known You moved me in a way that I've never known But straight away you just moved into position again, You abused me in a way that I've never known You abused me in a way that I've never known So break me shake me hate me take me over, when the madness stops then you will be alone Just break me shake me hate me take me over, when the madness stops then you will be alone So you're the kind who deals with the games in the mind, well you confuse me in a way that I've never known You confuse me in a way that I've never known So break me shake me hate me take me over, when the madness stops then you will be alone Just break me shake me hate me take me over, when the madness stops then you will be alone She says, "I can help you, but what do you say?" But its not free baby, you'll have to pay You just keep me contemplating, that your soul is slowly fading God don't you know I live with a ton of regret? 'Cause I used to move you in a way that you've never known But then I accused you in a way that you've never known, but you hurt me in a way that I've never known... Break me shake me hate me take me over, when the madness stops then you will be alone So won't you break me shake me hate me take me over, when the madness stops then you will be alone Listen baby, you'll be, you'll be alone Break me shake me hate me take me make me fake me break me shake me hate me take me, Break me

We stumble in a tangled web, decaying friendships almost dead and hide behind a mask of lies We twist and turn and we avoid all hope of salvage now devoid, I see the truth inside your eyes So take all this noise into your brain, send it back again I'll bear the cost, shed my skin, call you up and then...I'll say the words out loud You could resurrect a thousand words to deceive me more and more A thousand words will give the reasons why I don't need you anymore Time manipulates your heart, preconceptions torn apart, Begin to doubt my state of mind But I won't go down on what I said, I won't retract convictions read, I may perplex, but I'm not blind So take all this noise into your brain, send it back again I'll bear the cost, shed my skin, call you up and then...I'll say the words out loud you could resurrect a thousand words to deceive me more and more A thousand words will give the reasons why I don't need you anymore I'll say the words out loud. I'll say a thousand words or more Manipulation. Fabrication. Conversation. Annihilation. I'll say a thousand words or more Damnation. Frustration. Elevation. Procreation. I'll say a thousand words or more You could resurrect a thousand words to deceive me more and more A thousand words will give the reasons why I don't need you anymore

Well don't you know I need a little indulgence? Listen to the hunter becoming the hunted Every day there's a million advances, don't be too forceful you'll ruin your chances Well don't you know that time is a broken glass that splinters against the wall? But the picture is coming back now baby, and I want to take it all Don't go making all these promises you know you can not keep There's a time to play a king and time to be a thief 'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep You know that time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone So let your body move a little bit closer, silent like the sound preceding a cyclone Don't you know that powerful thinking can be a force you don't want to relinquish? Well don't you know that they say that hanging on will justify the wait? But patience and elated wisdom don't share a common phrase Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep There's a time to play a king and a time to be a thief 'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone Well, I'm only hanging on for what goes down, I'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground I'd take advantage but I can't see through this charade So don't you, don't go make it harder than hell 'Cause when it comes down to the making, you better make damn sure you can take it, hey baby Well don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep There's a time to play a king and a time to be a thief 'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep You know time will be a thief and your fallen king will end up alone Time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up... A fool, a fool, a lonely sorry fool; Oh baby, 'cause I told you baby

In Santa Monica, in the wintertime, the lazy streets so undemanding, I walk into the crowd In Santa Monica, you get your coffee from the coolest places on the promenade, where people dress just so Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn, its there, I sit and wonder what am I doing here? But on the telephone line I am anyone, I am anything I want to be I could be a super model or Norman Mailer and you wouldn't know the difference, or would you? In Santa Monica, all the people got modern names like Jake and Mandy, and modern bodies too In Santa Monica, on the boulevard, you'll have to dodge those in-line skaters, or they'll knock you down I never felt so lonely, never felt so out of place, I never wanted something more than this But on the telephone line I am anyone, I am anything I want to be I could be a super model or Norman Mailer and you wouldn't know the difference On the telephone line I am any height, I am any age I want to be I could be a caped crusader, or space invader and you wouldn't know the difference, or would you?
