Belief Is All (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

The moment you lie awake and you start to sink
If only for your own sake, yes, you begin to think
You breathe in, you breathe out and you breathe in the air
The sky and your mind is clouded up with despair

You clasp your hands together and you pray to the skies
Although your words mean something you still fear for your life
You tell me how you are feeling and the things you've seen
Well, que sera my boy, yes, where we'll be we'll be

What do you believe in, and what do you feel?
Where do you want to go and what do you want to see?

Belief Is All we have and all we need
To help us to think and to feel and make us succeed

What do you believe in, and what do you feel?
Where do you want to go and what do you want to see?

Belief Is All we have and all we need
To help us to think and to feel and make us succeed

Easier (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Take me off to a place where I have never been before
Where I can see the mountain tops and watch the waves lap against the shore
Life is what you make of it, and then again just a little more
Help me have some feelings I have never had before

But it's so hard, it's getting harder
It's been hard for so long

And how I wish it was Easier
E-Easier, Easier, E-Easier, Easier
E-Easier for me ...

I want something to believe in I never thought I could
Give me someone to hold on to I never felt I should
I want someone to believe in, someone pure, someone good
Help me have feelings I never thought I would

But it's so hard, it's getting harder
It's been hard for so long

And how I wish it was Easier
E-Easier, Easier, E-Easier, Easier
E-Easier for me ...

We're all scrambling around chasing shadows in the dirt
Trying to find something or someone for what it's worth
For what it's worth ...

Well how I wish it was Easier
E-Easier, Easier, E-Easier, Easier
E-Easier for me ...

Well how I wish it was Easier
E-Easier, Easier, E-Easier, Easier
E-Easier for me ...

Well how I wish it was Easier
E-Easier, Easier, E-Easier, Easier
E-Easier for me ...

Your Eyes Are Made Of Gold (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

As I walk along I wonder why the grass is green and skies are blue
And the birds will sing their morning tunes just for you

As the night falls there is thunder, lightning strikes and bolts out of the blue
And the rain will settle on the green green grass and form sweetly scented dew

And Your Eyes Are Made Of Gold and the sunsets just for you
And the dreams that you behold, well, I hope they all come true

I still walk and I still wonder why the grass is green and skies still blue
And the birds still sing their morning tunes, still they sing for you

And Your Eyes Are Made Of Gold and the sunsets just for you
And the dreams that you behold, well, I hope they all come true

Yes they sing for you, sing it one more time ...

And Your Eyes Are Made Of Gold and the sunsets just for you
And the dreams that you behold, well, I hope they all come true
Yeah, Your Eyes Are Made Of Gold and the sunsets just for you
And the dreams that you behold, well, I hope they all come true


Blossom (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Blossom falling, the start of the Spring,
Blossom fading as Summer begins,
Just like you ahead of the curve,
Just like me I don't know what I'm worth
And I, I call your name
Blossom my dame,
Blossom my baby

Summer Rose, yeah, it grows and it grows
I'm the thorns down there by your side
Summer breeze, how it blows and it blows
You can look but I know where I hide
And I, I call your name
Blossom my dame,
Blossom my baby

Autumn leaves, they blow in the breeze
Soon Winter comes and summer does cease
Change of seasons like the changing of tides
You can look, still I know where I hide
And I, I call your name
Blossom my dame,
Blossom my babe,
Blossom my dame,
Blossom my baby



My Life (lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

you can do the best to use those tears to hide the venom in your eyes
because i know now it's with snakes and liars you would rather spend your time
maybe i knew all along but after all this time i'm still surprised
that people close their eyes and use their mouths for telling lies

well i know you're saying something but all i hear is nothing
nothing that can help me live my life
and i know you are a someone but all i see is no one
no one that can help me live my life

i tell you the truth now i would rather stay at home and cry
than go out making idle chatter and kiss the cheeks of those that i despise

well i know you're saying something but all i hear is nothing
nothing that can help me live my life
and i know you are a someone but all i see is no one
no one that can help me live my life













It Ain't Easy (lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

If only I could find the words
to tell you how I feel
You know I'd take them back
all the other things I said
I'd take away the bad
along with the rest
Oh yes ...

If only I could find the words
I know your heart would melt
There's no point in looking back
all around my head
Looking back on all the sad
the pain of yesterday
is in somethin', somethin'
something you did to me ...

Well, It Ain't Easy lord no It Ain't Easy
Feeling like I never did before
It Ain't Easy lord no It Ain't Easy
Knowing how I'll feel forever more

If only you would say the words
you know I long to hear
So much time has passed
since we did the things we did
And I've been broke a thousand times
I'm all alone since then
And there's somethin', somethin'
something you did to me ...

Well, It Ain't Easy lord no It Ain't Easy
Feeling like I never did before
It Ain't Easy lord no It Ain't Easy
Knowing how I'll feel forever more

Now everybody's heard my story
how do you think it's going to end?
It's so hard to ignore ignore thee
somethin', somethin', something you did to me ...

Well, It Ain't Easy lord no It Ain't Easy
Feeling like I never did before
It Ain't Easy lord no It Ain't Easy
Knowing how I'll feel forever more
This is how I'll feel forever more ...

















Always In The Way (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

You said you'd been here before
But they path you take you're never sure
And you say you want it more and more

Well, my door is always open
If you need a helping hand
Some words just to guide you
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way

You sailed off to a distant shore
To find an ocean clear and pure
And you say you're loving more and more

Well, my door is always open
If you need a helping hand
Some words just to guide you
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way

Try and you try and you still fail
Cry and you cry I hear a wail

Well, my door is always open
If you need a helping hand
Some words just to guide you
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way

You said you'd been there and seen it all and done it all before
But they path you took you're still not sure
And you say you loving and you're needing and you're wanting more and more

Well, my door is always open
If you need a helping hand
Some words just to guide you
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way
There's always something, Always In The Way

Goodnight (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

She drinks black coffee in the morning
That's what stains her teeth
Then she'll put on a night dress
She's not lost but how she roams the streets
She treads the boulevard floor
And then she'll go back and tread some more
Although she's seen it all before
And no doubt she will see it all again

Goodnight my lady
Goodnight farewell
You don't need to tell me
Some things they are better left unsaid

She stops, fumbles for change
Lights one more cigarette
Holds her hands up to the rain
Just to stop herself from getting wet
Though that is the way that she would usually like to be
She knows tonight that it's not likely
Because she's seen it all before
And no doubt she will see it all again

Goodnight my lady
Goodnight farewell
You don't need to tell me
Some things they are better left unsaid

Goodnight my lady
Goodnight farewell
You don't need to tell me
Some things they are better left unsaid
Goodnight
Goodnight
You can't stop me now
Goodnight my lady

In The Presence Of The Lord (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Well, he don't want to stay here
Not another day here
Because just like me he can't stand the weather

We all know that planet earth is blue
And we all know that love is true
If only it could last forever

In The Presence Of The Lord
All you hold in your hands is all that you need
For the sake of your brothers and sisters you'd die for love
You would die for love

You want to go out and kiss the son
From the moment your life had begun
But first my children you must learn to kiss the sky

From the moment you walk through the door
It's the moment you had to be sure
That things they ain't never going to get any better

In The Presence Of The Lord
All you hold in your hands is all that you need
For the sake of your brothers and sisters you'd die for love
You would die for love

Om Om Om

In the passing of time
Well I've looked and I've searched but I still couldn't find
Someone quite like you
Somebody who would die for love

In The Presence Of The Lord
All you hold in your hands is all that you need
For the sake of your brothers and sisters you'd die for love
You would die for love
In The Presence Of The Lord
All you hold in your hands is all that you need
For the sake of your brothers and sisters you'd die for love
You would die for love
You would die for love
You would die die for love
In The Presence Of The Lord
You'd die for love
In The Presence Of The Lord





All You Gotta Do Is Ask (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Don't expect no religion
No quick fix easy answers to grace my lips
But if you want to know all my politics then
All You Gotta Do Is Ask

You've come along, oh a long way baby
From that cute young little girl, a right little lady
You've got your knickers round your ankles and a skirt nowhere to be seen
And if you want a piece then
All You Gotta Do Is Ask

Well, all I ask, and all I pray
Is that you keep away from me woman
Yeah, you'd better stay away

Born and raised the "ilson" way
You've got to learn to kick and then run away
And there's no use dreaming of a better day
You gotta learn to live and then you'll sure learn how to pay

You stand outside, a sign by your side that says
"£10 an hour" to come and steal your flowers
Now you're freezing your arse off in a tiny pink sache
And if you wanna know where the lights go then
All You Gotta Do Is Ask

Well, all I ask, and all I pray
Is that you keep away from me woman
Yeah, you'd better stay away

I like your smile but I don't like your style
You are clapped up to the eyeballs and in a pink dress three sizes too small
And you smoke, and this is no joke, well I'm not trying to be funny
But, I wouldn't waste good money on you

Yeah, on you
All I gotta do
All You Gotta Do Is Ask

Stop Me Girl (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Some force is making me fall for you but I know deep inside this is what I wanna do
Well you know that I speak of truth and I hope all you need is loving too

Stop Me Girl from falling any deeper
Stop Me Girl from shedding no more tears

Well you know that I would rather die than see another by your side
When all I could do was sit there and wonder why when all I really want is in you to confide

Stop Me Girl from falling any deeper
Stop Me Girl from shedding no more tears

Well you know just where I wanna go
And you know that I love you

Some people they like to try and kick me by my knees then laugh out loud when I fall
All that they speak of is the birds and the bees when really they know nothing of love at all

Stop Me Girl from falling any deeper
Stop Me Girl from shedding no more tears

I Need Sleep (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

I, oh I, I Need Sleep
But my soul, my soul won't let me rest

And I, oh I, I need peace
But this war, this war won't end

And sometimes, there's something we all need
But sometimes, sometimes we've just got to be

And I, oh I, I Need Love
Although I know, Love don't do me no good
And sometimes, there's something we all need
But sometimes, sometimes we've just got to be

We've just got to be
Yeah, we got to be
Oh we got to be
We got to be

And I, oh I, I need you
Although I know it's more than you'll ever need me ...



Play The Game (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Walking by the riverside I see the fishermen there in dismay
"there's note cummin' aht a the Trent today" I think I heard one of them say
There's no such thing as a harmless lie - it all comes out in the end
That's a line of the truth my friend and I'm as sure as the river bends

Standing by the Meadow Lane and I feel a warm summer breeze
Robin Hood and his merry men come whistling through the trees
Stand in Sherwood by the Major Oak; why should I feel proud?
Let's hear it for Torvill and Dean and let's play the music loud

You can Play The Game, just never lose sight of your aim
I'll Play The Game, but I will always stand by my name

Let's hear it for America speeding in on a late night train
A glorious land of liberty is here to take away all your pain
And now the bullets fly as the sun hits the sky and everybody looks the same
Because right here in the city everyone's playing the game

You can Play The Game my friend, but you must never lose sight of your aim
I'll Play The Game, but I will always stand by my name





Stop Me Girl (lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Some force is making me fall for you but I know deep inside this is what I wanna do
Well you know that I speak of truth and I hope all you need is loving too

Stop Me Girl from falling any deeper
Stop Me Girl from shedding no more tears

Well you know that I would rather die than see another by your side
When all I could do was sit there and wonder why when all I really want is in you to confide

Stop Me Girl from falling any deeper
Stop Me Girl from shedding no more tears

Well you know just where I wanna go
And you know that I love you

Some people they like to try and kick me by my knees then laugh out loud when I fall
All that they speak of is the birds and the bees when really they know nothing of love at all

Stop Me Girl from falling any deeper
Stop Me Girl from shedding no more tears

The Way It Is (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Please allow me just a minute of your time
For a quick question, a simple survey of mine
Ever get the feeling you're going nowhere?
Don't worry brother, that's a feeling we all share

Oh, that's just The Way It Is
It'll be alright in the end my friend
Oh, that's exactly how it is
And I'm telling you just because you are my friend, my friend

We are all heading in the same direction
All nursing through the same complications
Do we suffer for the money or for our art?
It's the things that drive us, they are driving us apart

Oh, that's just The Way It Is
It'll be alright in the end my friend
Oh, that's exactly how it is
And I'm telling you just because you are my friend, my friend

Well, the road gets hard a dusty when you've heard a thousand times
The same old lies through the same old eyes
But as longs as I've got you and as long as you've got me
We are together now and we can purely be

Oh, that's just The Way It Is
It'll be alright in the end my friend
Oh, that's exactly how it is
And I'm telling you just because you are my friend, my friend

Me & You (lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

I am a dreamer and I dream my dreams for two
And I hope one day all my dreams will come true
Because all the dreams I dream are for Me & You

I'm a believer and I believe in all the thing you do
And when you speak I believe you speak the truth
But most of all I believe in Me & You

And when I tell you how I'm feelin
You say you feel the same
I feel so pleased
And oh so relieved
For this is no longer a game

I feel love and that's something that I never thought I could do
But let me just tell you how wrong I've been proved
With all the love I feel
I Love You

Calling You Out (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

For corrupt politicians, corporations and football chairmen everywhere

I don't know what I have been sold
The games tha you play and the lies you have told
The snakes and the ladders the twists they unfurl
Who's to know what the future might hold?

But we made you what you are
Now you're leaving us permanent scar
Yes you've taken it all too far
Now we're Calling You Out
We are Calling You Out
Calling You Out

Your celebrations of war
Now we know what you truly stand for
Carving up lines between rich and of poor
I knew all along it was you keeping score

But we made you what you are
Now you're leaving us permanent scar
Yes you've taken it all too far
Now we're Calling You Out
We are Calling You Out
Calling You Out
Calling You Out

Whether you're red or you're blue
makes no difference to you
You've got nothing to prove
All I want is the truth

But we made you what you are
Now you're leaving us permanent scar
Yes you've taken it all too far
Now we're Calling You Out
We are Calling You Out
Calling You Out
Calling You Out
Calling You Out
Calling You Out

As A Matter Of Fact (Lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

The world is wide 'cos you exist
Well, I love you and that is that
The world is kind, if you insist
Well, I love you As A Matter Of Fact

And, oh my soul is restless ever since you went away
Thank God you're here to stay
And blowing in the wind is
A thousand little things
To say that you're OK

Well, I love you and that is that
Well, I love you As A Matter Of Fact

When you are near I have no fear
Well, I love you and that is that
It all seems clear, when you are here
Yeah, I love you As A Matter Of Fact

And all my nights are endless ever since you went away
Thank God you're here to stay
And floating up the stream is
A million little dreams
To say that you're OK

Well, I love you and that is that
Well, I love you As A Matter Of Fact
Well, I love you and that is that
Well, I love you As A Matter Of Fact

No Matter How (lyrics) - Matt Henshaw

Here we go again up the hills and around the bend
All the letters never sent from your loved ones and your friends

The misty morning takes you by surprise again
As you try to find the strength just to be yourself
The tears you cry falling out of love of love again
Well it all seems so surreal and you don't know how to feel but it's alright

No Matter How you live you life
No Matter How you spend your time
No Matter How

Here we go again wave goodbye to the light
All the books you've never read you could read all through the night

The misty morning takes you by surprise again
As you try to find the strength just to be yourself
The tears you cry falling out of love of love again
Well it all seems so surreal and you don't know how to feel but it's alright

No Matter How you live you life
No Matter How you spend your time
No Matter How

Here we go again up the hills and around the bend
All the letters never sent from your loved ones and your friends
Here we go again wave goodbye to the light
All the books you've never read you could read all through the night

The misty morning takes you by surprise again
As you try to find the strength just to be yourself
The tears you cry falling out of love of love again
Well it all seems so surreal and you don't know how to feel but it's alright

No Matter How you live you life
No Matter How you spend your time
No Matter How
No Matter How
No Matter How
No Matter How
