Wishing I Was There lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

Take your hand and place it in my pocket

Flick your eyes back in their sockets

Put those thoughts away

Sometimes they're much too loud

I'll take a breath and cradle your sweet head

Should've stayed at home in bed

Put that face away

I'm melting for you

I know

I get cold

'Cause I can't leave things well alone

Understand I'm accident-prone

Me,

I get free

Every night the moon is mine

But when the morning comes

Don't say you love me

Don't say you need me

I really don't think that's fair

Boy I'm not so dumb

But when you leave me

I'll be wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

I dreamt about another girl in bed with you

You just laughed and smiled denied the proof

We're fine 'til I think of the problem

I wish it made sense like a joke that no one gets

It's a life without regret

I want it to feel that way, forever and ever

I know

I get cold

'Cause I can't leave things well alone

Understand I'm accident-prone

Me

I get free

Every night the moon is mine

But when the morning comes

Don't say you love me

Don't say you need me

I really don't think that's fair

Boy I'm not so dumb

But when you leave me

I'll be wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there with you

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there with you

No, don't say you love me

Don't say you need me

I really don't think that's fair

I'm not so dumb

But when you leave me

I'll be wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there with you

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there with you

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there with you

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there with you

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I was there

Wishing I—, wishing I—, wishing I...

City lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

Had a dream, had a drowning dream

I was in a river of pain

Only difference this time

I wasn't calling out your name

Has it ended before it's begun?

You hold on and I try to run

But anybody heading in my direction

Away from the city?

Anybody wanna change the way they feel?

Step inside

Doesn't really matter where you wanna take me

Away from the city

I wanna start again

I wanna start again

I wanna take it back

I wanna start again

I wanna start again

Funny how those friends forget you

When you tire of their games

You miss a show or a party that blows

And they've forgotten your name

And you wonder what you've become

They pull you back when you try to run

Well, anybody heading in my direction

Away from the city?

Anybody wanna change the way they feel?

Step inside

Doesn't really matter where you wanna take me

Away from the city

I wanna start again

I wanna start again

I wanna take it back

I wanna start again

I wanna start again

I left the me I used to be

I wanna see this through

I left the me I used to be

If only you'd see it too

Well, I wonder what you've become

You pull me back when I try to run

Well, anybody heading in my direction

Away from the city?

Anybody wanna change the way they feel?

Step inside

Doesn't really matter where you wanna take me

Away from the city

I wanna start again

I wanna start again

I wanna take it back

I wanna start again

Left Of The Middle lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

End of the third round

As I put the phone down

Chasing the same lines

Over the old ground

I'm pushing zero

Where is my hero?

He's out there somewhere

Left of the middle

And your world falls down

And you're there calling out

But it's something I can't say

Though it seems the only way

But it's a game that I can't play

Not today

I got my ticket

And I got a straight road

But I'm passing the same signs

Over and over

And my world falls down

And I'm there calling out

But it's something I can't say

Though it's seems the only way

But it's a game that I can't play

Not today

And my world falls down

And you're there calling out

But it's something I can't say

Though it's seems the only way

But it's a game that I can't play

Not today

I need to tell you

Trying to get through

It's not always easy

Left of the middle

Contradictions lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

Seventeen years in a dead end job

telling his dreams to a deaf eared god

Hangin' on tight by a single thread

prayin' for a change.

Everything you could have sacrificed

your flesh and blood had it's own sweet price

baby's all grown up and moved away

where's that leave you now?

It was your own decision

you made my life your mission.

Somebody tell me

it doesn't make no sense at all

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction.

Somebody tell me

it doesn't make no sense at all

Somebody tell me

why we're living in a world of contradiction.

Why is it so hard to be understood?

Doing so much for the common good

sorry if I didn't see the truth

the sadness in your eyes

I wanted to stand on my own two feet

looking at life as a one way street.

Thinking that I had it all worked out

where's that leave me now?

We lost communication

too many expectations

Somebody tell me

it doesn't make no sense at all

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction.

Somebody tell me

it doesn't make no sense at all

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction.

Everything I have inside

I kept it wrapped up tight

All I know is ..

All I want to know is...

Somebody tell me.

Somebody tell me

it doesn't make no sense at all

Somebody tell me

Why we're living in a world of contradiction

In a world of contradiction.

Seventeen years in a dead end job

telling his dreams to a deaf eared god

Hangin' on tight by a single thread

where's that leave you now?

Diving In The Deep End lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

Why should it be

someone like me

could make the same mistakes again

haven't I learned

people get hurt

when they go diving in the deep end

in the deep end

in the deep end

in the deep end

thought I was smart

controlling the art, of turning of my intuition

haven't I seen

since I was fourteen

that life is all just repetition

you lose or you win

you sink or you swim

when you go diving in the deep end

in the deep end

in the deep end

in the deep end

now it's time to realise

you don't have to agonize

you don't have to compromise

but the one thing you must do is open your eyes

open your eyes

open your eyes

why should it be

someone like me

could make the same mistakes again

haven't I learned

people get hurt

when they go diving in the deep end

in the deep end

in the deep end

in the deep end

Frightened Child lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

I hear your silent scream

deep in your private dream

Two ways to go from here

one way will bring you near

fragile wish

Full moon no rain no shame

that distance still remains.

More shades of grey to come

we've been through more than one.

Close your eyes...

Like a frightened child

fragile in spirit

Like a wind blowing wild

no name you can give it

Like an infantile seeing the light for the very first

No tricks no sleight of hand

find somewhere safe to land

Before your walls were shakin'

but now the whole thing's breakin'

And it makes you feel...

Like a frightened child

fragile in spirit

Like a wind blowing wild

no name you can give it.

Like an infantile seeing the light for the very first

Yes you're right

What is right?

Yes it's night

I can tell.

Yes it's yours.

Yes I know.

You're a beautiful stranger to yourself

I've Been Watching You. lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

When the rose.

slaps your face

says your pain is a state of grace (I think that's right)

mirror cracks

image bleeds

he'll touch your desires

but not your needs

I stand at an open window

I see everything there is to see

I've been watching you

isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down

taking you

I've been watching you

isn't it true the world keeps taking you down down

taking you

party ends

on the floor

hear a voice

behind the door

in the dark

you play his games

forget yourself

forget your name

I stand at an open window

I see everything there is to see

I've been watching you

isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down

taking you

I've been watching you

isn't it true the world keeps taking you down down

taking you

so there you are all dressed in black

walk away and don't look back

but if you must then cast a stone

the light is on but there's nothing and no one home (I think)

cos i've been watching you

isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down

taIking you

I've been watching you

isn't it true the world keeps taking you down down

taking you

I said I i've been watching you

Isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down

taking you

I've been watching you

isn't true the world keeps taking you down down

taking you down.

Something Better lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

I won't say anything

I'm hiding in the pink

if I move would I break the spell

or am I boring you

I can't feel anything

I think whatever you say

you took me riding on the big wheel

so I guess I'm happy now

And I'll stay with you

and I'll lay with you

and I'll always be there

nothing will go wrong

till something better comes along

So now you swallowed me

come and finish off the rest of me

a good house a cactus life

spent perfect days and sleepless nights whatever

And I'll stay with you

and I'll lay with you

and I'll always be there

nothing will go wrong

till something better comes along

And I 've lost my fingerprints

and I 've lost my sixth sense

but you just don't feel a thing

when the needles going in

And I'll stay with you

and I'll lay with you

and I'll always be there

oh go nowhere

and I'll stay with you

till something better comes along....

So now you swallowed me

come and finish off the rest of me

Sometimes lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

Isn't it like me

to want to say

things I can't explain ...

in simple ways?

Why should I be sane?

Why can't I be crazy?

Sometimes I'm up,

sometimes I'm down,

I choke on words,

and make no sound.

Sometimes

Sometimes I'm weak

sometimes I'm strong

living with the fear I don't belong

Sometimes

Why is it so hard

to know myself?

Underneath this skin you'll find

someone else.

Don't be so surprised

when you look inside me

inside me

Sometimes It's black

sometimes It's white

you hide behind electric light

Sometimes

Sometimes I swear

sometimes I pray

suddenly the guilty disobey

Sometimes

Sometimes I'm weak

sometimes I'm strong

living with the fear I don't belong

Sometimes

Sometimes I stand

sometimes I fall

I throw myself against the wall

Sometimes

Sometimes I sink

sometimes I swim

tell me why my world is caving in

Sometimes

Sometimes it's sweet

sometimes it's raw

trying to get so high like I did before

Sometimes

Sometimes in love

sometimes in hate

sometimes it's all a big mistake

Sometimes

Story Of My Life lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

(originally by One Direction)

Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain

I leave my heart open

But it stays right here empty for days

She told me in the morning

She don't feel the same about us in her bones

It seems to me that when I die

These words will be written on my stone

And I'll be gone, gone tonight

The ground beneath my feet is open wide

The way that I've been holding on too tight

With nothing in between

The story of my life, I take her home

I drive all night to keep her warm

And time is frozen (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life, I give her hope

I spend her love until she's broke inside

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change

I leave my heart open

But it stays right here in its cage

I know that in the morning, now

I'll see us in the light up on the hill

Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still

And I'll be gone, gone tonight

The fire beneath my feet is burning bright

The way that I've been holding on so tight

With nothing in between

The story of my life, I take her home

I drive all night to keep her warm

And time is frozen (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life, I give her hope

I spend her love until she's broke inside

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

And I've been waiting for this time to come around

But baby, running after you

Is like chasing the clouds

The story of my life, I'll take her home

I'll drive all night to keep her warm

And time is frozen

The story of my life, I give her hope

I spend her love until she's broke inside

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life

The story of my life

The story of my life

Tomorrow Morning lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

Lonely, lost every part of me

maybe, outstayed my company

walking in to sad scenes

hold me tight and say goodbye

I've seen, behind tomorrow's sky

you be, my missing alibi

bone me over backwards

turn around and change my mind

Cause I've been thinking

about our world tonight

slowly sinking into my appetite

tomorrow morning

are you a friend of mine

I swear, you've left me open

nowhere, to hide this moment

overcrowded daydreams

we're lost or so it seems

Cause I've been thinking

about our world tonight

slowly sinking into my appetite

tomorrow morning

are you a friend of mine

Cause I've been thinking

about our world tonight

slowly sinking into my appetite

tomorrow morning

are you a friend of mine

Why lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

The sky has fallen on my yesterday

I watch my moon and blue sun (?) slip away

Everybody's asking questions

Everybody's wanting more

Every time I catch myself, I fall

And it's why you ask me

And it's why i don't know

And i try to pull myself togehter

I don't want to go home (?)

The little girl has lost her way today

The tables turning on the game she plays

Everybody's asking questions

Everybody's wanting more

Every time I catch myself, I fall

And it's why you ask me

And it's why I don't know

And I try to pull myself together

I don't want to go home

Every time I catch myself, I fall

And it's why you ask me

And it's why I don't know

And I try to pull myself together

I don't want to go home

And it's why you ask me

And it's why I don't know

And I try to pull myself together

I don't want to go home

Every time I catch myself, I (slip away) fall . . .

All The Magic lyrics - Natalie Imbruglia

[from "Winx Club: The Secret of the Lost Kingdom" soundtrack]

Promises have meaning once again
And broken dreams are drifting to an end
I feel it like my life has just begun
I'm waking for the first time
Waking' for the first time
Waking for the very first time to the sun

I'm getting a feeling that I wanna explore
My heart to the ceiling and my feet off the floor
You let in all the magic
And it's even better than before
You open your heart and then you open the door
I'm getting all the magic

Desert land is drinking from the sky
Ever since I heard the words that made me cry
There's love in shadows waiting to be seen
I'm waking for the first time
Waking for the first time
Waking for the very first time to a dream

I'm getting a feeling that I wanna explore
My heart to the ceiling and my feet off the floor
You let in all the magic
And it's even better than before
You open your heart and then you open the door
I'm getting all the magic

All I can take, all I can take
I won't break
All I can take, all I can take

I'm getting a feeling that I wanna explore
My heart to the ceiling and my feet off the floor
You let in all the magic
And it's even better than before
You open your heart and then you open the door
I'm getting all the magic

I'm getting all the magic
I'm getting all the magic
Could you imagine
All the magic
I'm getting all the magic
