A Heartbeat Away

A Heartbeat Away
CHO: I’m just a heartbeat away
From the one I love
Just a heartbeat away
From the stars above
A single heartbeat and then
You’ll be mine, I’ll be yours
And all will be fine
I’m just a heartbeat away
From your door
Just a heartbeat away
From all I’m dying for
A single heartbeat and then
You’ll be mine, I’ll be yours
And all will be fine.
Been a rough tough road
So many stumbles
So many broken hearts
Straining under the load
About to crumble
So before we start
Are we on the same track
And want love that’s true
That lasts forever
There’ll be no turning back
It’s only me and you
And it’s now or never.
Every single heartbeat
Brought me to
That time and place
Walking down a dark street
Out of the blues
I saw your face
And everything spun around
To a different world
A different view
Strolling round the same old town
With a gorgeous girl
A dream come true.

I Found Love

I Found Love
Looking for rhyme and reason
Asking questions in riddles
Far out in uncharted waters
With nothing but a banjo and fiddle
Near the untouchable horizon
Drifting between life and death
I found love, love was the answer
Deep within every breath
I found love, love was the answer
Deep within every breath.
Looking for someone special
To give life purpose and meaning
To give comfort and solace
In the handful of years remaining
Shooting those arrows of time
Through hearts along the way
I found love, love was the answer
At the end of every day
I found love, love was the answer
At the end of every day.
BRI
Looking beyond looking back
To find my direction
To see my old track
Dancing across a dark stage
I found love set me free
From my infinite cage.
Marching around in circles
Bending and arching backwards
Twisting, churning and turning
Yet never quite moving forwards
I used to think I was quite something
But that was all long before
I found love and then I found
Love was so much more
I found love and then I found
There was nothing more.

When I Say

When I Say ...
When I say I’m sorry
When I say I was wrong
You know I never meant to hurt you
You know I miss you now you’re gone
When l say that I need you
When I say please come home
You know you’re everything I ever wanted
You know I’m lost when I’m alone
BRI
And when I say that I love you
I know I never say it quite enough
But it’s always there on the tip of my tongue
But gets buried under so much other stuff
CHO
Yeah I might speak a load of nonsense to others
Spout a bunch of crap when I ain’t got a clue
But when I look you in the eye and hold you
Every single word I say is true.

Is She There

Is She There
Is she there
In the shadows
I thought I saw something move
Is she there
In the bedroom
I heard a noise, did you hear it too
Is she there
Among the crowd
I could swear I saw her face
Is she there
In that window
Or am I a hopeless case.
CHO
(Yeah) I can feel her warm breath
In the breeze upon my skin
(And) I can feel her heartbeat
Pounding deep within. (Rpt)
She was here
Right beside me
Seems like just a few days ago
She was here
Thought we were happy
Though I guess you never know
Is she there
In that train
On her way to Bondi Beach
Or is she here
Somewhere nearby
Staying close but out of reach.

Paris is for Lovers

Paris is for Lovers
Stepped off the train
No place to stay
Walked the streets half asleep
Just feeling my way.
Just come in from Berlin
Where I climbed the wall
Made my escape make or break
And forget it all.
CHO
Paris is for lovers, artists and writers
And the cream of society
Paris is where dreams come true
And hearts break in two
Paris ain’t for me.
Lost in my thoughts
Half a world away
As the traffic pours by
And there’s smoke in my eye
(I) can’t understand a word they say.
Still the scenery’s fine
And romance is in the air
Entices the mind for some time
But then she’s back there.
Final Cho
Paris is for lovers, artists and writers
And the cream of society
Paris is where dreams come true
And hearts break in two
Paris ain’t for me
If Paris is where dreams come true
Why do I still dream of you
Coming back to me
Paris is where dreams come true
And hearts break in two
Paris ain’t for me.

Something You Said

Something You Said
You were hiding in the forest
Out of sight from all the wolves
Who were prowling all around
With their posing pouches full
I was dirty nerdy and naughty
Nowhere near nice enough
For a gorgeous girl like you
But I simply deeply fell in love
CHO
It was something you said
Made we wonder
Something you said
Made me think I stood a chance
Then it was something you did
That made me jump
Yeah that kiss on the cheek
Made my dead heart pump.
I’d glimpsed you from a distance
Too beautiful to be true
Then I briefly saw you closer
And all my fuses blew
You were far too much to handle
With my heart deep in a trance
I summoned all my courage
And offered true romance
BRI
Now these many years later
With our kids all grown and gone
Your beauty never waned
And wolves still lurk and look on
And I remain astounded
That you still decide to stay
Despite my many quirks and oddities
That annoy you each and every day.

So So Simple
I’d like to meet you
And get to know you
Can I come over tonight
I’d like to see you
I’d like to talk to you
Hey would that be alright?
I got my hair cut
I got no hang ups
And I’m as smart as they come
I drive a cool ute
And I look pretty cute
Hey what more can you want?
CHO
I gotta so so simple idea
Why don’t we get together baby
Over coffee or a beer
I gotta so so simple idea
And if we like each other
Then let’s get out of here
CHO fin
I gotta so so simple idea
I love everything about you
Let’s go and have a beer
I gotta so so simple idea
And baby if you love me
Then let’s get outta here!
I gotta thing for you
I’m gonna sing for you
I have to ring you tonight
I gotta hold you
I gotta kiss you
And babe I hope you don’t bite
I got a full tank
I got ma’ piggy bank
Hey that’s all that we need
See you at midnight
And baby hold tight
I’m gonna set you free.
