1. You
I have been in the Night
for so very long
Living in the Dark
from past failed loves
who have left their mark
But I got a message from you
it was so out of the blue
I got a message from you
Waiting all of my life
for someone like you
To love me as I love you
I was alone and down in a hole
strung out and hopeless
without any clue
But I got a message from you
it was so out of the blue
I got a message from you
from you
from you
Darling my only wish
is that you stay with me
keep loving me
and care for me
I got a message from you
oh, I got a message from you
2. Brand New
I feel like I’ve known you
for eons and past lives
I know you feel the same
But who are you in this one?
What’s your favourite colour?
What’s your favourite sky?
Do you roll with the punches
just to get by?
I want to to be happy now,
even from far away.
‘Cause one day we’ll escape our towns,
Baby, you and I
We have so much in common already,
I wonder what else…
I need to know more.
I need to know you.
What’s your family like?
Do you have a lot of friends?
Do you get too lonely
when you’re by yourself
just like me?
I want to to be happy now,
even from far away.
‘Cause one day we’ll escape our towns,
Baby, you and I
It’ll be hard to be so far away
for oh so long.
But it’ll be worth it honey,
I promise you that.
3. Adjust
We’ve had some trouble
getting used to each other
but we’ll get it right
Already on our way
Your motivation’s too blunt sometimes
And my darkness is too deep at others
but we’re adjusting
but most important:
we’re loving
oh, we’re loving
each other
We’ll be together until time dissipates
but until then we’re living,
oh we’re working
we’re loving
yeah we’re loving
I love you, Nick
