Альбом Imogen Heap

Distant flickering, it's greener scener.
This weather's bringing it all back again.
Great adventures, faces and conversation.
I'm going outside and take it all in.

You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

We’re a different pair, just something out of step.
Throw a stranger an unexpected smile...with big intention.
Still posted at your station.
Always on about the day it should have flown.

You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Been walking, you've been hidding,
And you look half dead half the time.
Monitoring you, like machines do,
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye

I've been walking, you've been hidding,
And you look half dead half the time.
Monitoring you, like machines do,
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye

You know you're better than this

I'll make you start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.

Say Goodnight and Go

Skipping beats, blushing cheeks I am struggling
Daydreaming, bed scenes in the corner cafe
And then i'm left in bits recovering tectonic tremblings
You get me every time

Why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go

Follow you home, you've got your headphones on and you're dancing
Got lucky, beautiful shot you're taking everything off
Watch the curtains wide open
Then you fall in the same routine
flicking through the TV relaxed and reclining
And you think you're alone...

Why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go

One of these days, you'll miss your train and come stay with me
(Its always say goodnight and go)
We'll have drinks and talk about things,
any excuse to stay awake with you
You'll sleep here, i'll sleep there,
but then the heating may be down again at my convenience
We'd be good, we'd be great together.

Why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much
It's bad enough we get along so well

Say goodnight and go,
Why's it always always
Goodnight and go
Darling not again
Goodnight and go

It takes a lot…to be always on form…
It takes al lot.
I maybe not…all the time, all I’ve got…
Maybe not.

Been one of those days…
Safety first, don’t push…what’s the hurry?
One not remaining, waiting on one look….have you got it?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?

All at once, not a whisper, nor word.
Then all at once…
Let me have it all, let me have a battle on,
Easy target,
Look can we just…just get it over with.
It’s getting worse, against all the odds…
It’s getting worse.
(Bow down, floor’s yours, last man standing can we, just get it over with.)

Been one of those days…
Safety first, don’t push…don’t push me…what’s the hurry?
Cause there’s one not remaining, waiting on one look,
One look now…have you got it?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?

Blue, blue…they make me blue…
Head down, quick! Take cover, be good, in the move!
Blue you, make me anymore blue?
Don’t scream, shout! Caught in the light of your suit.

Been one of those days…
Safety first, don’t push…what’s the hurry?
One not remaining, waiting on one look…have you got it?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?

Doing everything by halves… got a real flare with excuses.
Meeting someone at the bar… where loose ends still have uses.

It's complicated… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
We're overrated, anyway.

We're kissing without kissing… got it down to a fine art.
Love's supposed to keep you young and frisky; we grew up and wide apart.
Not now, not ever, no… it's never a good time.
How will the good times ever roll along?
Comparing photos that are no longer there.
Just wondering…wondering…where it all went.

It's complicated… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
Nothing to salvage, anyway.

Oh, oh, oh none of the above…
Oh, oh, oh none of the above…
Oh, oh, oh none of the above…
Oh, oh, oh…

It's complicated… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
We're overrated, anyway.

It's complicated… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
Nothing to salvage, anyway.

Where are we? What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to fall,
Crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling.
Spin me round again and rub my eyes.
This can't be happening.
When busy streets a mess with people
would stop to hold their heads heavy.

Hide and seek.
Trains and sewing machines.
All those years they were here first.

Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before.
The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this
still life.

Hide and seek.
Trains and sewing machines. (Oh, you won't catch me around here)
Blood and tears,
They were here first.

Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that you only meant well? Well, of course you did.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that it's all for the best? Ah off course it is.
Mmm, what you say?
Mm, that it’s just what we need? And you decided this.
Mmm what you say?
What did she say?

Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.
Speak no feeling, no I dont believe you.
You don't care a bit. You don't care a bit.

Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.

You don't care a bit. You don't care a bit.

You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.
You don't care a bit.

Knock, knock…are you alone?
No one’s out here and I was not followed.
Love, love…you’re already home.
Party’s over and you don’t look so good.

You find your way back down.
And I’ll keep the area clear…please clear the area.
When you find your way back down…in one piece.
Then I’ll just be waiting here…right here.

No light…mercury morning…
No need to stay as it’s always nothing.
But your eyes tell a whole other story…and I feel the weight of the world.
Won’t talk…Won’t try…just move…
It’s too still in your sadness.
Cry…give up…it’s okay…
You’ve just got to trust me.

You find your way back down.
And I’ll keep the area clear…please clear the area.
When you find your way back down…in one piece.
Then I’ll just be waiting here…right here.

Slowly…darling…nobody means anymore to me than you
If you’re in…baby then I’m in (into this)…with you, always.
Careful…close to the edge…(You’re scaring me)
Fall in to my arms….(where did it all fall?)
Fall…into love…love…

You find your way back down.
And I’ll keep the area clear…please clear the area.
When you find your way back down…in one piece.
Then I’ll just be waiting here…right here.

You find your way back down.
Way back down,
And I’ll keep the area clear…please clear the area.
When you find your way back down…in one piece.
Then I’ll just be waiting here…right here.

Don't mind me,
Just cruising by,
by the girl with the balloon,
Good it looks like we're the only ones around,
Caught on CCTV,
Heading towards the city lights,
winking diamonds at me,
arms stretched out now,

Ha-oooooooooo, it gets me everytime

Sexy baby,
Happiness and silhouettes,
revolving in the deep water,
indigo its high tide,
night sky,
Pleasure moment,
thinking big
thinking positive
and itching to get on with it,
its all stops out

excess is the new moderation
get all dressed up to the power of ten
raise glasses on repeat,
again, again, again, again, again, again

ha-ooooo it gets me everytime

oh, wade in the sonic joy,
Pleasure in the wave and synchronise,
sway in the sonic joy,

ha-oooooo it gets me everytime

everytime, it gets me right here

Inside out, upside-down twisting beside myself,
Stop that now, cos you and I were never meant to be
I think you better leave; it’s not safe in here,
I feel a weakness coming on.

Alright then (Alright then) I can keep your number for a rainy day,
That’s when its set, no mistakes no misbehaving,
I was doing so well, can we just be friends,
I feel a weakness coming on.

It’s not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don’t want to feel like this, Yeah,
No it’s not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don’t want to feel like this, so that makes it all your fault.

Inside out, upside-down twisting beside myself,
Stop that now; you’re as close as it gets without touching me,
Oh now don’t make it harder than it already is,
I feel a weakness coming on.

It’s not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don’t want to feel like this, Yeah,
No it’s not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don’t want to feel like this, so that makes it all your fault.

Big trouble loosing control,
Primary resistance at a critical load,
On the double gotta get a hold,
Point of no return a second to go,

No response on any level, red alert this vessels under siege,
To a lower lever, systems failed, they’ve got control,
There’s no way out, we are surrounded,
Give in, Give in…..

Freeze, awake here forever, I feel a weakness coming on.

It’s not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don’t want to feel like this, Yeah,
No it’s not meant to be like this, it’s just what I don’t need,
Why make me feel like this, it’s definitely all your fault.

Feel like this la la la la la la la la
It’s all your fault (Feel like this) la la la la la la la la
It’s all your fault (Feel like this) la la la la la la la la
It’s all your fault (Feel like this) la la la la la la la la
It’s all your fault

Just for now (x6)

It's that time of year
Leave all our hopelessness’s aside
If just for now (just for now) leave awhile
Just stop right here
I know we've followed a bumpy ride.
I’m sinking along your side

How did you know?
It's what I always wanted
Could never have had too many of these
Well I, quit kicking me under the table
I'm trying; will somebody make her shut up about it?
Can we settle down please?

It's that time of year
Leave all our hopelessness’s aside
If just for now (just for now) leave awhile
Just stop right here
I know we've followed a bumpy ride.
I’m sinking along your side

Lie down
Deep breaths
Count to ten
Nod your head

I think something is burning
Now you've ruined the whole thing
Might fool the smoke alarm
Whoever put on this music?
Better quick shop remove it
Pour me another
Oh, don't wag your finger at me

It's that time of year
Leave all our hopelessness’s aside
If just for now (just for now) leave awhile
Just stop right here
I know we've followed a bumpy ride.
I’m sinking along your side

Get me outta here (x13)
Just for love
Just for love.

I am in love with you,
I am in love with baby,
I am in love with you…yeah,
Live for the moment.

Right now another please,
Right now another please, just like that,
Like that another one babe,
Kiss me for longer.

Oh hay Baby don't you run away,
Oh hay Baby don't you run away,
Come here and finish what you started.

I am in love with you,
I am in love with you, baby,
I am in love with you…yeah,
At least for the moment.

Split second and it's all in smoke yeah,
Split second and it's all in smoke yeah,
Split second and it's all in smoke yeah,
So wet this fire dry.

No don't get yourself in situations,
No don't get yourself in situations,
Darling, that you can't handle.

No one will know, if you forget yourself,
No one will know, that you forget yourself,

Come on into my bed with me,
Come on into my bed with me,
I know you want to,
Come on into my bed with me,
Come on into my bed with me,
I know you want to,

I not in love with you
I'm not in love with you, baby
I'm not in love with you, yeah

Not any more. (x4)

I can’t wait... to be with you.
No, I just can’t sit still... are we there, yet?
Takes me back... I remember.
Such a magical place... it was all...you.

Closing in... I hope that you make it.
Closing in... I hope that you find your way.

Frame by frame...red speed ahead.
A city dissolving... the thread of your love in the headlights.
Is it safe now? Will your arms be open?
I'll just have to kiss you...try and stop me.

Closing in... I hope that you make it.
Closing in... I hope that you find your way.
Closing in... it’s all that I want in the whole world.
Closing in... please be there… please be there.

What are you like?
Where did you get to?
No word, no nothing.
You didn’t hold me, for any longer.
Did you walk for the fear of love?
Or, don’t you believe enough?
Well I'll cover both of us
You can... leave that to me.

Closing in... I hope that you make it.
Closing in... I hope that you find your way.
Closing in... closing in...

The moment I said it
the moment I opened my mouth
lead in your eyelids
Bulldozed the life out of me
I know what you're thinking
But darling you're not thinking straight
Sadly things just happen.... we can't...... explain


It's not even light out,
But you've somewhere to be - no hesitation
No I've never seen you like this
And I dont like it, I dont like it, I dont like it at all

Just put back the car keys
or somebody's going to get hurt
who are you calling at this hour
sit down, come round , I need you now
we'll work it all out together
we're getting no where tonight
now sleep, I promise, it'll all seem better somehow
in time

It's not even light out
Suddenly, you've somewhere to be
No hesitation
mmm...I've never seen you like this
Your scaring me, Youre scaring me,
Your scaring me to death

Don't..oh, smash....please
Don't...oh.....and another one x2

I'm losing you.......I'm losing you

Trust me on this one
I've got a bad feeling
Trust me on this one
You're going to throw it all away
With no hesitation

Bye bye bye bye bye bye
bye bye bye bye bye
bye bye bye
bye

Here's the day you hoped would never come
Don't feed me violins
Just run with me through rows of speeding cars.
The paper cuts, the cheating lovers
The coffee's never strong enough
I know you think it's more than just bad luck

There, there, baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darling
Oh, don't lose your head
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah

Sleeping pills know sleeping dogs lie
Never far enough away
Glistening in the cold sweat of guilt
I've watched you slowly winding down for years
You can't keep on like this...
Now's a bad a time as any

There, there, baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darling
Oh, don't kill yourself
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah

It's okay by me
It's okay by me
It's okay by me
It was a long time ago

It's okay by me (It's alright with me)
It's okay by me (It's alright with me)
It's okay by me
It was a long time ago

There, there, baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darling
Oh, don't lose your head
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darling
Oh, don't kill yourself
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah

Can't close my eyes
They're wide awake
Every hair on my body
Has got a thing for this place
Oh, empty my heart
I've got to make room for this feeling
It's so much bigger than me

(Chorus:)
It can not be
Anymore beautiful
I can't take it in

Weightless in love - unraveling
For all that's to come
And all that's ever been
We're back to the board
With every shade under the sun
Let's make it a good one

(Chorus:)
It can not be
Anymore beautiful
It can not be
Anymore beautiful
I can't take it in

I can't take it in

I can't take it in

It can not be
Anymore beautiful
It can not be
Anymore beautiful
I can't take it in

More that I wonder
More than I ever needed

More that I wonder
