Deep Blue

She can’t handle her excitement 

It’s been so long since he’s been around

Missing her exit on the motorway

He calmly tells her settle down

 

Encouraged her to go

She just felt pushed away

He had no reason now 

to say he couldn’t stay

Please stay

 

She drove on focused on her duties

Working mindfully to keep her sane

Watching waiting every Sunday

That deep blue Tasman calls her name

 

Encouraged her to go

She just felt pushed away

He had no reason now 

to say he couldn’t stay

Aching to just feel loved 

Pretending to be brave

What is she doing here

And does he feel the same

The same

 

That one trip home seems so peculiar

Touching down a cool rush surging her veins

Feeling like a stranger in her own town

That deep blue Tasman calls her name

Aching to just feel loved

Pretending to be brave

What is she doing here 

And does he feel the same 

She gave him everything 

He didn’t acknowledge 

He gave her what he could 

He thought she was ok

Ok

 

 

She can’t handle her excitement 

It’s been so long since she’s been home

 

How I want to be

© Sonse Music (Narelle McBride)

 

I’ve finally found how I want to be

Throwing back the curtains and

Let the light in

Peeling off the layers

Happy tears creeping in

I’ve finally found how I want to be

 

I’ve finally found a way to be me

Releasing all the shackles and 

Breathing in my skin

I rise above the narrative of

Who I should be

I’ve finally found a way to be me

 

I’ve finally found the missing part you see

She was always there 

Just needed to be free

I’ve found myself I trust myself

I have faith I believe

I’ve finally found the missing part you see

 

I’ve finally found how to share my heart

And give without leaving 

Nothing for me

When I’m on this stage 

I feel her replenishing

When I sing to you

I can share my heart

 

When I sing to you

I can share my heart

When I sing to you

I can share my heart 

 

 

 

Dancing tonight

(Narelle McBride)

I could write you a letter 

To tell u what I want

could I spell it out any better?

For you to read my thoughts?

 

So I would go with you tonight

 

Just say the word

I’ll put on something nice 

You won’t need to ask me twice

But I won’t go 

Let’s not go unless we’re dancing,

Unless we’re dancing

 

Let’s make something out of nothing

You could that shirt I bought

I wont say you look handsome 

I don’t want to freak you out

 

Let me go with you tonight

 

Just say the word

I’ll put on something nice 

You won’t need to ask me twice

But I won’t go 

Let’s not go unless we’re dancing,

Unless we’re dancing

 

Just say the word

I’ll put on something nice 

You won’t need to ask me twice

But I won’t go 

Let’s not go unless we’re dancing, 

Unless we’re dancing

Unless we’re dancing

Unless we’re dancing, tonight
