We made it
I knew it would be worth the wait
There’s something ‘bout the way it changes
Colours dancing on the page
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
It’s golden and I see it shining on your face
Skimming on top of the waves
Throwing spells all over the place
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
Sit with me here and watch it till it’s gone
There’s magic in the air but not for too long
Every time is different and I know for sure
That it’s a lucky day when I get to see more
Of you I wanna see the sunset with you
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
As it all (as it all) starts to glow (starts to glow)
Speaking to my soul
The breeze is cooling off
Ground is staying warm
Throw my eyes (eyes) to the sky (sky)
See the birds (birds) flying by
If I could (could) you know I would
Save this frame (frame) in my mind
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
(wanna see the sunset sunset sun)
With you I wanna see the sunset with you
(wanna see the sunsetsunset sun)

I’m ready I’m ready for your love
I’m ready (gonna be ready) ready for your love (gonna be ready)
No need to push and shove
I know you are the one
Close my eyes nowhere to hide
Ride the wave that I’m feeling inside
Yeah you satisfy
Dancing in my mind
You turned up caused a rush
Now you’re giving me more than enough
I’m ready ready for your love (ready for your love)
You’re pulling all the strings in my heart
Sad songs they sting when we’re apart
I’m ready, ready for your love (gonna be ready)
I’m ready, ready for your love (gonna be ready)
Let’s face it I’m no fool
Give or take the finest jewels
Landed here in my own fear all I need is to have you
(Have you here) there’s only ever gonna be you
(Gonna be you) and now we got to follow through
‘Cause I’m ready ready for your love (ready for your love)
I know I really need you so
And I cannot wait anymore
I’m ready I’m ready for your love
I’m ready (gonna be ready) ready for your love (gonna be ready)
You’re pulling all the strings of my heart
Sad songs they sting when we’re apart
I’m ready (gonna be ready) ready for your love (gonna be ready)
I’m ready (gonna be ready) I am ready for your love

Do It
03:00

Collecting promises holding for another day
Time to make a move time to make your play
Oh oh if you wanna do it
Oh oh then you should do it
When you left it out to dry you left it a day too long
Trying to find a place to hide but you left the light on
Building a fire found a log but you got no axe
At least if you do something it’s better than too much chat
Oh oh if you wanna do it
Oh oh then you should do it
You can get to it c’mon
You gotta just do it so c’mon
A house with no roof no shelter from a storm
A life with no failure no stories to tell at all
We ride alone and hear the words all the things we tell ourselves
And if we don’t try to do the things we say then what’s the use
Beautiful ideas created watch these dreams fade away
If we don’t even try and have a go
If we don’t even try and have a go
I say oh oh if you wanna do it
Oh oh then you should do it
Oh oh if you wanna do it
Oh oh then you should do it

Make time to take time out follow a dream
Through the long summer grass into an open field
Wearing your favourite shirt not a care in the world
What will you carry and who stands beside you
Let it feel real nice don’t try too hard
Let it simmer right and
know that you are enough
That you are enough
You are enough
You are enough
Always the right time to take time out
Making a good life and that is enough
That is enough
Over the ranges a clear night sky
Something wonderful and you are enough
Know that you are enough
You are enough
You are enough
You are enough
You are enough
