My Way Home 04:07
The words were hanging in the air When I hit the ground You’re leaving me for another guy Moving to another town You couldn't even bear to say You might see me around But for now..... CHORUS I’m driving by your house On my way home It’s not just my way I’ve lost you know There’s a time for holding on And one for letting go I’m driving by your house On my way home Of all the places I could be Of all the things I should’ve seen Right here, right now it seems to me I’m wasting my life Wasting my life I believe, yeah, I believe There’s good things waiting for me But for now For now..... CHORUS I’m driving by your house On my way home It’s not just my way I’ve lost you know There’s a time for holding on And one for letting go I’m driving by your house On my way home © 1996 Robin Tymm

Did I wake you? Were you dreaming? I know you’re lonely but you’re not alone I’m not sleeping, my bed is an ocean I’m going crazy of what I don’t know CHORUS Going out of my head just thinking about you Drowning here in my bed, I’m sinking without you I’m drowning here in my bed, I’m sinking without you I’m going out of my head, going out of control You don’t call me when I really need you to You’re leaving me lonely and out of control I’m not sleeping, my bed is an ocean I’m going crazy of what I don’t know CHORUS Going out of my head just thinking about you Drowning here in my bed, I’m sinking without you I’m drowning here in my bed, I’m sinking without you I’m going out of my head, going out of control Did I wake you? Were you dreaming? I know you’re lonely but you’re not alone I’m not sleeping, my bed is an ocean I’m going crazy of what I don’t know Going out of my head just thinking about you Drowning here in my bed, I’m sinking without you I’m drowning here in my bed, I’m sinking without you I’m going out of my head, going out of control Out of control © 1996 Robin Tymm

Another sunny afternoon, I wish that it was raining 'Cause I can't suffer one more perfect day without complaining It’s time to pack my things I’m coming home Back where the weather suits my mood to be alone CHORUS So lift me up don’t let me down Show me a way out of this god-forsaken town What’s so hard about goodbyes? Yeah, there's nothing to it but don't you look me in the eyes 'Cause I just don't realise Another sunny afternoon, the days so long and lazy The breeze paints ripples on my swimming pool, it’s enough to drive you crazy So come on let those thunderclouds come rolling in I am leaving here tomorrow and I won't be back again CHORUS So lift me up don’t let me down Show me a way out of this god-forsaken town What’s so hard about goodbyes? Yeah, there's nothing to it but don't you look me in the eyes 'Cause I just don't realise BRIDGE The way you're looking at me once was enough to change my mind But all it takes is one look up to a blue and cloudless sky So come on let those thunderclouds come rolling in I am leaving here tomorrow and I won't be back again CHORUS So lift me up don’t let me down Show me a way out of this god-forsaken town What’s so hard about goodbyes? Yeah, there's nothing to it but don't you look me in the eyes Don’t you look me in the eyes Don’t you look me in the eyes 'cause I just don't realise © 2004 Robin Tymm

You know she made me love her You know she made me love her She held a gun to my head And she made me love her She said if I won’t hold her Said if I wouldn’t hold her She’d turn the gun on herself She’d turn the gun on herself CHORUS But she cried wolf One too many times What she told as truth I heard as lies And now she’s right here with me She’s always right here with me Can’t get her out of my mind She’s always right here with me Sometimes she whispers in my ear She whispers softly in my ear A little love was all I needed With a little love she still be here CHORUS But she cried wolf One too many times What she told as truth I heard as lies © 1988 Robin Tymm

We got blue skies, we got sunshine We got the whole day free and a bottle of red wine We got a beat-up old car and a battered steel guitar Big, big plans but we didn’t drive that far CHORUS We’re gonna ride down to the coast Watch the waves roll in the breeze And we’ll thank the Lord for summer days like these We got good friends, we got loose ends Been ‘round here a while but still retained some innocence When the summer’s fine and hot we’re not rooted to the spot Just get up, get out and think about All the good things that we got CHORUS We’re gonna drive up to the hills Feel the wind blow through the trees And we’ll thank the Lord for summer days like these You better take it while you can ‘Cause it won’t be ‘round for long I can promise you life’s not so sweet When all the sugar’s gone We got a beat-up old car And battered steel guitar CHORUS We’re gonna ride down to the coast Watch the waves roll in the breeze And we’ll thank the Lord for summer days Thank the Lord for summer days Thank the Lord for summer days like these © 1990 Robin Tymm

I have a hard time Believing that things will get better And I can’t be certain Of how much I want things to change Yeah, I once caught a glimpse of the future The blink of an eye all confusion and blur And I once think I said that I loved her But it was under my breath And I don’t think she heard I’ve stopped believing That one day we all find our salvation Oh, I need a new life ‘Cause this one’s worn out at the knees Yeah, I once caught a glimpse in the mirror The face staring back looking lost and disturbed And I once think I said that I loved her But it was under my breath And I don’t think she heard CHORUS No I don’t think she heard when I whispered forever I don’t think she heard when I begged her to stay It’s a mystery to me how you just couldn’t hear All the things that I just didn’t say INSTRUMENTAL CHORUS No I don’t think she heard when I whispered forever I don’t think she heard when I begged her to stay It’s a mystery to me how you just couldn’t hear All the things All the things that I just didn’t say © 2000 Robin Tymm

Unlikely 02:27
I’ve changed I’ve grown Got lost Came home My life’s a big mess I wouldn't clean it up Said I’m sorry But you know I didn’t mean it CHORUS Do you love me? Do you like me? I feel that’s so unlikely I’m asking Politely Don’t you hurt me? Won’t you please come quietly? You want Those things You know I can’t give to you You’ve got a mean streak You’ve got a bad heart There’s a question That I should have asked you from the start CHORUS Do you love me? Do you like me? I know it’s so unlikely I’m asking Politely Don’t you hurt me? Won’t you please come quietly? © 1998 Robin Tymm

Watch TV 03:34
There’s a better place I thought I heard you say Can you draw a map? Can you help me find a way? It was a cry for help Was a heart-felt plea Could you show me just a little sympathy? CHORUS There’s something rotten In the state of my heart I’m bruised and broken And I’m falling apart As the house falls down around me I just sit here and watch you Watch TV You took a photograph It didn’t look like me Its funny how a goofy smile Can make me look so happy It was a cry for help Was a heart-felt plea Could you show me just a little sympathy? CHORUS There’s something rotten In the state of my heart I’m bruised and broken And I’m falling apart As the house falls down around me I just sit here and watch you Watch TV © 1998 Robin Tymm

You left me on some other day Guess I knew that you’d have to go away I said I’d call you, girl I said I’d send a letter But being there with you now Would make me feel much better CHORUS How I’m gonna let you down When I no longer come around All my reasons why Are buried deep inside And it don’t make me proud Of how I’m gonna let you down So don’t you put your trust in me ‘Cause I’d betray it for a little sympathetic company Don’t you bother to write me Don’t pick up that phone ‘Cause I can’t promise That you’ll find me on my own CHORUS How I’m gonna let you down When I no longer come around All my reasons why Are buried deep inside And it don’t make me proud Of how I’m gonna let you down Of how I’m gonna let you down Of how I’m gonna let you down © 1989 Robin Tymm

She spoke a language she called love Used words that I misunderstood And my replies, I knew, were little more than bluff They were never good enough Never good enough She made me feel like I belonged She knew the words to all my songs Stayed around ‘til something better came along ‘Cause I was never good enough Never good enough I was never good enough Never good enough BRIDGE And though she never said those words I heard them just the same She never points a finger But I’m the one to blame I can’t remember when this seed of doubt Was planted in my brain But it’s been growing It’s been growing And I’m going down again There are some things you don’t need to say And there are thoughts you have That your sweet face betrays No need for explanations, baby, it’s ok I was never good enough Never good enough I was never good enough Never good enough © 1996 Robin Tymm

about

The "difficult" second album.....these songs were mainly the songs that appeared on the first demo....I remember recording over Christmas 2004 when my heating broke down....listen closely to "Never Good Enough" and you can hear me shivering
