Gypsy Eyes 03:57
Sitting in the garden with sun on my face, No need to worry, feeling all displaced. Got my cigarettes, drinking my tea. So won't you please love me? Won't you give me the time to talk, Your gypsy eyes and satin shoes, won't let you walk. You don't feel the way I do, So we won't walk two by two. But can't you see, What you're doing to me? Why can't you accept that we're not legit? I see you fighting your corner, But I did fucking warn ya! So why don't you chuck in the towel and be done with it!? I see you watching me with your evil glare, Fire in your eyes can burn your disguise. Time bomb is ticking and soon you'll be mine, Cause you're the crosshair in my minds eye! So won't you give me the time to talk, Your gypsy eyes and satin shoes, won't let you walk. You don't feel the way I do, So we won't walk two by two. But can't you see, What you're doing to me? Why can't you accept that we're not legit? I see you fighting your corner, But I did fucking warn ya! So why don't you chuck in the towel and be done with it!?

Time Passes 03:45
You wear your heart on your sleeve, This knowledge might be too hard to believe, But I love you, I love you. Proposition isn’t much of an ask, If you love me, its not a task, Do you hear me, Do you hear me? Is it ‘cause you’re lonely, That you want me to stay? Are you just using me, To waste your time away? Swimming against the strong tide, Just to find I’m cast aside. Can you see me, Can you see me? I don’t know what I’m running to, Just want to be with you, Can you please me, Can you please me? Is it ‘cause your soul is lost, Which is why you’re trying to steal mine. Tomorrow you’ll love him, It’s only a matter of time. Is it ‘cause you don’t care, That you’ve left me in this state. You’ve left me withered and bare,

Hummingbird 04:25
Hummingbird, fly your way down, To the city of dreams, thats where I'll be. Fly your way through the concrete jungle, Up and over to the distant seas. Wind is howling in your face, The reason you left your nest, is to be free. And you, don't want to be known, For the troubles that you've committed in the past. And you, just wish for the season to change. Motherless child, find your own heart, To strengthen, strengthen your soul. Widowed bride don't ponder on the past, Just stand up, stand up with pride. Hummingbird, find your honey tree, To set your, set your love free. Take my hand, and we'll discover, Open, unknown lands. And you, don't want to be known, For the troubles you've committed in the past. And you, just wish for the season to change. And you, don't want to be known, For the troubles you've committed in the past. And you, just want the season to change. Te lightening strikes, And the mountains falls. The ones around you, Leave you, leave you to crawl. The wings you glide on, Have lost their flight, The adventure you've taken has just died. And you, don't want to be known, For the troubles you've committed in the past. And you just wish, for the season to change. And you, don't want to be known, For the troubles you've committed in the past. And you just wish, for the season to change.

Summer beads are dropping by, Winter winds are falling through. Spring time wishes, soon will die, Autumn leaves are for you to choose. Tree tops fall and life thrives, The bluebird lives, but the hummingbird dies. Sticks and stones, may break my bones, But you'll never find yourself on your own throne. Cause, You really don't know, what its like, To be the keeper of the seasons at the middle of the night. It's not like pushing any old bike, Your decisions need reasons, for them to be right! All hail the king they'll say, With the joker and the thief having child's play. Your feet may be on the ground, but your heads still in the clouds, You may have my heart, but I don't fell duty bound. Cause,You really don't know, what its like, To be the keeper of the seasons at the middle of the night. It's not like pushing any old bike, Your decisions need reasons, for them to be right!
