Purple Girl 03:16
Closer to the ending Than I am To the beginning And I don’t want To be lonely anymore I know I’m Just a stranger And you probably Sense the danger But I can’t control This feeling anymore I’m dying to rediscover And learning About your lover And hoping you will Throw him Out the door I have plans for us And time for you If you loved Me too Purple girl I know I should be Looking for a woman Who is single But the only hand I want to hold is yours Maybe he will falter and The chance will Overwhelm me And then maybe you will Tell me you want more I’m dying To make you dinner And wanting To be the winner Cause you are All the things that I adore I have plans for us And time for you If you loved Me too Purple girl You can count On me For the things You need If it comes to be Purple girl

Love Lights 04:00
When the things That you do Don’t amount To nothin’ And the harder You try then The more You lose When the choices You make always Leave you lonely And what used To be fun is a Pain now to do I know the feeling I’m there with you You’ve always Had the stuff To make it girl You’re at the top Of your game Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on When the friends That you thought You would have Forever Go and leave You behind Like some Dirty shoes When the job That you took Just to get You started Is the reason You have no more Time left for you I know the feeling I’m there with you You’ve always Had the stuff To make it girl You’re at the top Of your game Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on I know the feeling I’m there with you You’ve always Had the stuff To make it girl You’re at the top Of your game Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on You’ve always Had the stuff You’re at the top Keep your love lights on Keep your love lights on

Intentions 03:49
You’re a train wreck On the run Telling people You’re hard up You’re lookin’ Like an angel But what your Shadow gives up When things go down You’re already Out of town You’re already On the move When you met me You saw what Your life could be You saw what I had to lose Your intention all along Was to deceive me My intention To be strong Only left me weaker You hold on To a man Til you Don’t need him You take What you can Then you need Your freedom It always Ends the same That’s how You play your game That’s how You make your moves You think I’m An easy win But I know Where you’ve been Babe I Got the news Your intention all along Was to deceive me My intention To be strong Only left me weaker Take what you want I don’t need Your karma These things you do Will only bring you Bad luck Your intention all along Was to deceive me My intention To be strong Only left me weaker Take what you want I don’t need Your karma These things you do Will only bring you Bad luck Your intention all along My intention To be strong Take what you want I don’t need Your karma These things you do Will only bring you Bad luck

Forever 02:44
Babe I wanna Get to know you But you don’t Understand me And you think That I’m a dick I just wanted to Protect you Cause really I respect you And don’t wanna Make you sick I have loved before And I see us Doing it forever Since we worked So close together I thought It was better To pretend I was a mess Now that you are Gone away girl I can finally say that You are like the best I have loved before And I see us Doing it forever I’d give everything And I’d help you Do the things You want to How can I Convince you With a song I wrote for you But maybe I got All my feelings wrong And I’m a fool I have loved before And I see us Doing it forever I’d give everything And I’d help you Do the things You want to I have loved before And I see us Doing it forever

Emma Watson 03:17
The forbidden forest Is never a place Where you should hide We stand before it As I look into Your eyes I’m here to protect you From things you Cannot face alone You cannot ignore this I ask you Don’t go on your own Dear Emma Watson You are The chosen one And my heart Only beats for you It’s a kind of magic To see your face Up on the screen Lovesick and tragic Girl you know Just what I mean I’m here to Remind you Of places you Have never seen Finite Incantatem Girl I’m down Here on my knees Dear Emma Watson You are The chosen one And my heart Only beats for you I may sound crazy But I’m not The only one The fate of the world Lies with you Dear Emma Watson I may sound crazy Dear Emma Watson You are The chosen one And my heart Only beats for you I may sound crazy But I’m not The only one The fate of the world Lies with you And my heart Only beats for you And my heart Only beats for you

Fall Away 02:57
I guess I’ll Paint a picture Seems that You can’t hear In elementary colours My feelings disappear Today is the day I fall away from you Time by the wayside And there’s No going back Cause you’re Not coming over As purple Turns to black Today is the day I fall away from you It’s a chore To fight the war Anymore with you Today is the day I fall away from you It’s a chore To fight the war Anymore with you With you With you Cause today Is the day
