How d'you turn a fire into mounds of snow?
How d'you teach an icicle to burn?
How d'you make somebody fall in love with you
If they can't even love you in return?
How d'you make a desert from an ocean bed?
How d'you turn a rainbow black and white?
How d'you make somebody fall in love with you
If there's no spark to flicker into light?
How can you feel it?
How can you care?
How can you love if love is not there?
How can you feel it?
How can you care?
How can you love if love is not there?
How d'you build a palace on the sun, my dear?
How d'you send an astronaut to Mars?
How d'you make somebody fall in love with you
If they can't see it written in the stars?

Do You Remember?
03:02

Here we are, as the years go by
Drifting on down life's alibi
Watching on, as the minutes die
And I think of you
What if we could have learned to love?
Would you be here, would that have been enough?
Am I the one you're still dreaming of?
And I think of you
Do you remember all the songs they used to play?
Do you remember every second would last a day?
Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple
When I think of yesterday
Now the moments fade away...
But that was then, shadows in the past
Time moves on, a love not meant to last
I wish the hours didn't move so fast
And I think of you
Do you remember all the songs they used to play?
Do you remember every second would last a day?
Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple
When I think of yesterday
Now the moments fade away...
So where are you now?
The songs of our lives
So where are you now?
The music has died
Do you remember all the songs they used to play?
Do you remember every second would last a day?
Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple
When I think of yesterday
Now the moments fade away...
Do you remember all the songs they used to play?
Do you remember every second would last a day?
Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple
When I think of yesterday
Now the moments fade away...

Everything Is You

I don't know how you make me feel the way I do
The way you make it seem there's only me and you
'Cause when you're gone I feel I'm falling to the ground
Like I'm lost and I am waiting to be found
I don't know why you want to love me like you do
Why you always seem to want to hold me when I'm blue
It's like you seem to know just what I'm going through
'Cause you are everything and everything is you
There's something magical about you when you smile
It's like it lights the room and warms me for a while
You give me hope and such a strength I never knew
Cause you are everything and everything is you

All the people, all the noise
All the crazy girls and boys
Makes me want to fly away
Far away from here
Everybody moves too fast
The sudden pace will never last
Makes me want a holiday
It's time to disappear
Restless nights and broken days
Stumbling through a troubled haze
Makes me want to close my eyes
And dream of foreign lands
Slamming doors and senseless fights
Spinning stars and flashing lights
Makes me want to change my life
For walks along the sand
So put me on an airplane
Fly me to Mexico
Long stay, Paris or Monaco
Airplane, take me all over the world
So let me fly long-haul, over the ocean blue
Sunlight, making our dreams come true
Airplane, take me all over the world
Filled-up hours, no time to breathe
No chance to show what you believe
Makes me want to break these chains
Escape for just a while
Empty hearts and stagnant halls
Surrounded by these growing walls
Makes me want a change of scene
To give me back my smile
So put me on an airplane
Fly me to Mexico
Long stay, Paris or Monaco
Airplane, take me all over the world
So let me fly long-haul, over the ocean blue
Sunlight, making our dreams come true
Airplane, take me all over the world
Fly away
Leave the past behind you, behind you
Fly away
Let the future design you, design you
So put me on an airplane
Fly me to Mexico
Long stay, Paris or Monaco
Airplane, take me all over the world
So let me fly long-haul, over the ocean blue
Sunlight, making our dreams come true
Airplane, take me all over the world

Learn To Love

If I could learn to love you
Dream on the stars above you
Maybe I'd see another view
If I could learn to love
If you could learn to love me
Give me your heart and trust me
The key would be yours to uncover me
If you could learn to love
If I could learn how to feel something for you
You could be more than a friend
If you could just feel the magic that I do
You would no longer pretend
If I could learn how to feel something for you
You could be more than a friend
If you could just feel the magic that I do
You would no longer pretend
If I could learn to love you
Dream on the stars above you
Maybe I'd see another view
If I could learn to love
If you could learn to love
If I could learn to love

Something I Should Know
02:39

Is there something I should know?
Is there something you should say?
Is there somewhere I should go?
Am I getting in your way?
Is there something that I've missed?
Is there someone on your mind?
Was it something when we kissed?
Or maybe I'm just going blind?
Is there something in my eye
Or am I crying once again?
Is there something I can do?
Is there something we can mend?
Is there something in our love
Like poisoned blood that tries to flow?
Is there something you should say?
Is there something I should know?
Is there something in your eye
Or are you crying once again?
Is there something I can do?
Is there something we can mend?
Is there something in your heart
That stops the love that tries to grow?
Is there something you should say?
Is there something I should know?
Is there something in our love
Like poisoned blood that tries to flow?
Is there something you should say?
Is there something I should know?
