The Scientist

Come up to meet you
Tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I’ll set you apart

Tell me your secrets
Ask me your questions
Oh let’s go back to the start
Running in circles
Coming in tails
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start...

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak loud as my heart

Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles
Chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start...

Princess in China

Could’ve been a princess, you’d be a king
Could’ve had a castle and worn a ring

Once upon a time somebody ran
Somebody ran away, sayin’ fast as I can
I got to go
I got to go
Once upon a time we fell apart
You’re holding in your hands the two halves of my heart
Oh oh...
Oh oh...

Once upon a time we burned bright,
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on
And on and on and on

Once upon a time on the same side
Once upon a time on the same side in the same game
And why’d you have to go
Have to go and throw water on my flame

Could’ve been a princess, you’d be a king
Could’ve had a castle and worn a ring
But no...
You let me go
And stole my star
La la la...

And you really hurt me

In My Place

In My Place, In My Place
Were lines that I couldn’t change
I was lost, oh yeah
I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldn’t have crossed
I was lost, oh yeah
Yeah
How long must you wait for it?
Yeah
How long must you pay for it?
Yeah
How long must you wait for it?
Oh, for it
I was scared, I was scared
Tired and under prepared
But I’ll wait for it
If you go, if you go
Leave me down here on my own
Then I’ll wait for you (yeah)
Yeah
How long must you wait for it?
Yeah
How long must you pay for it?
Yeah
How long must you wait for it?

Oh, for it?
