Natalie Imbruglia - Torn

"Torn"

I thought, I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around and he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry

Well, you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore

There's nothing where he used to lie
The conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor

Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late, I'm already torn

So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light

It crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care, I had no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can touch, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor

Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late, I'm already torn, torn

There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on this floor

Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late, I'm already torn, torn.

Natalie Imbruglia - Lukas


"Lukas"

They call him Lukas,
Climbing the stairs to talk to you,
Coming to tell his story,
Every single one of which is true,

Hello Lukas,
I'm pleased to meet you, now how you do?

So they go driving,
Up to the river like lovers do,
You smell like the summer,
Maybe the summer just smells of you,
One day i'm gonna be a famous writer,
Some look like love in the afternoon,
It was all Lukas could say,
Maybe one day we could run away,
Run away,

[Chorus x2]
ooh ooh ooh ooh,
I thought you'd never ask

Now here comes Lukas,
He'd done everything you wanted to,
It's 20 years later,
Come back to do what he promised to,
He'd come back to make her happy,
But these things don't always wait for you,
And poor Lukas was late,
For when he got back she've been married a day,
Gone away...

[Chorus x2]
ooh ooh ooh ooh,
I thought you'd never ask,

And Lukas would say,
For a million lonely people,
Another lonely day,
For a million hearts that open,
A million break,
And the world's just a fallen angel
In my wake,
High up in heaven you can hear them say,
Looking for Lukas
He'is always running away,

ooh ooh ooh ooh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh

Natalie Imbruglia - Counting Down The Days

"Counting Down The Days"

You were right
And I don't wanna be here
If your gonna be there
Was that supposed to happen

I'll hold tight
I'll remember to smile
Though it has been a while
And without you does it matter

There's no room
No place to start
When our souls are apart

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here
I'm counting down the days

How've you been
It's just the usual here
And days are feeling like years
And every day's without you

Now I cry
Just a little too much
When I think of your touch
And everything about you

I feel cold
I'm in the dark
When our souls are apart

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here
I'm counting down the days

I'm counting down the days
I'm counting down the days

I'm gonna be your surprise
I'm gonna hold you so tight

Yeah

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
I'd hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
I'd hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here
A million miles away from here

Natalie Imbruglia - Big Mistake

"Big Mistake"

There's no sign on the gate
and there's mud on your face
don't ya think it's time we re-investigate this stuation
put some fruit on your plate
you forgotten how it started
close your eyes
think of all the bubbles of love we made
and you're down on your knee
it's too late
oh don't come crawlin'
and you lie by my feet
what a big mistake
I see you fallin'

gotta buz in my head
and my flowers are dead
can't figure out a way to rectify this situation
don't believe what you said
you forgotten how it started
close your eyes
think of all the bubbles of love we made
and you're down on your knees
it's too late
oh don't come crawlin'
and you lie by my feet
what a big mistake
I see you fallin'

I could sting like a bee
careful how you treat me
baby I don't think l'll accept, your sorry invitation
close the door as you leave
and you cry over me
I can't wait
I feel you stallin'
and you try to reach me
what a big mistake
I hear you callin'
[chorus]

Natalie Imbruglia - Smoke


"Smoke"

My lullaby, hung out to dry
what's up with that
it's over
where are you dad
mums' looking sad
what's up with that
it's dark in here
why bleeding is breathing
you're hiding, underneath the smoke in the room
try, bleeding is believing
I used to

my mouth is dry
forgot how to cry
what's up with that
you're hurting me
I'm running fast
can't hide the past
what's up with that
you're pushing me
why, bleeding is breathing
you're hiding, underneath the smoke in the room
try, bleeding is believing
I used to

why, believing is breathing
you're hiding, underneath the smoke in the room
try, bleeding is believing
I saw you crawling on the floor
why, bleeding is believing
you're hiding, underneath the smoke in the room
why bleeding is believing
I saw you crawling to the door
why, bleeding is believing
you're hiding, underneath the smoke in the room
try, bleeding is believing
I saw you falling on the floor
