the tempest 02:35
Girl you were the chalk that wrote on the black-board of my mind Oh you were a mile-stone that showed how far I had gone away in time, oh god Sent overboard by a wave of yours, oh I tried to tread the water But though all the smoke, oh I gave up hopin' that you would drop me a rope dear
2.
shipwrecks 01:37
On the surface of the sea flashes the watch of a moon but there's some place else & it's stolen a wealth of the life I spent with you From the marbled crimson sky crashes the dust of its tomb but you never asked me to make a mask of the life I spent with you
3.
japan 01:25
green & blue took me through to the river of your mind it's what you say not what I do that caught the tails of Time moon & spies took the light an action was made of chains oh & I would stay but for your eyes whose wind blows me away
4.
ebrahim 02:22
oh my friend, I know that you are going through it all I know you're going through some not so small things right now oh my friend sometimes it must get too much for you & god knows it gets me too when I think you feel alone but don't you know I am your friend I will be there til the end for you & don't you know that I think of you all the time? I've got a place it my heart for you for you oh my friend I know that we are not the same although I have tried to change some things about myself oh my friend I must say that you've inspired me & you're the kind of person I've tried to be all my life but don't you know I'm also your friend & I will be there til the end for you & don't you know that I think of you all the time? I've got a place in my heart for you for you

kite down 00:41
there is no sun could light a path which leads me away from you there is no hand upon the latch of the gate you walk me through
6.
samurai 01:28
when the battle first was started we fought on different sides I killed many of your kinsmen & it's true I nearly died when the battle finally ended you took me far away I was nursed by your half-sister for you felt I had been brave when the nightmares first were started I could see what I had done but until we met I didn't know what I was to become when the nightmares finally ended my old enemy my friend & the blossom tree was blowin' but the circle has no end
7.
au revoir 02:06
no bend for the line of the railway the train never goes by a different way oh no oh she is my best friend & she is his best friend & she is my best friend no change in the hands on the clock face aw couldn't they turn around any other way? aw no oh she was my best friend & she was his best friend & she was her best friend
8.
trotwood 00:41
a spaceship flew both you and me so far out into space aw & the planets danced a waltz & though it wasn't what you wanted we never lost our way
9.
rebecca 01:08
Rebecca, it's better that you don't understand I cannot tell whether you took free from my hand but, to you, I give all that I have ever had Rebecca, whenever you sweep through the field please try to remember, when you're asked to yield that, from you, I learned all that I have ever known
10.
australia 02:09
I heard you goin' away on a boat or on a plane could even go by car oh you travelled so far you're in the new world now I heard you leavin' my side let me go, don't hold me tight you could put your arm around to stop me feelin' so down you're in the new world now
11.
diamonds 00:52
on a sea of diamonds a lonely call "I built your hands up from broken walls" one thousand feet high was far too tall for a god we could believe in
12.
Oh you were a mile-stone that showed how far I had gone away in time, oh god Sent overboard by a wave of yours I tried to tread the water & through the ocean's smoke, I never gave up hopin' that you would drop me a rope dear
