This page is gradually growing so please bare with us whilst we work out what we sing.

All I Have Is Here

Animals

Written in the middle of the AIHIH sessions by Jonathan. Michael added a few flushes in the mid section, plus some harmonies. Some of the chorus lyrics are taken from an old song of Jonathan's written in the mid 00's called 'Blood Money'.

Come on, Come on just like animals

We'll hunt them down and take our prize

Come on, Come on there'll be no escape

We'll rip 'em up one by one

It's not that I don't know, it's just that I dont care

Well that is my mistake

Please hear me now as I wake with my eyes open

I never meant for this

Well I declare this a state of emergancy

They're creeping from their holes into our doors

Tonight, tonight there'll be no escape

Just say the word and it is over

Always Yours

This was an early song written for the album, pre-Christmas 2010. A demo of it featured on the free Christmas CD we send out.

I'm never lost and low when you're neer

As I, when I see your face, I light up

Tonight I feel invincible, tonight I have it all

And if I fail to wake again

Please know I was always yours

I'm like a moth to a flame I am drawn to you

As you bleed me dry, but still...

Making Faces From Clouds

The lyrics for this song became difficult due to being so vast! Musically, Jonathan had it completed and although he knew where he wanted to go with the lyrics, he called on Michael and the words became a true team effort.

Well I was busy making faces from the clouds

It kept me out it kept me happy it kept me sane

And then she came with an aire of something new

And turned my life inside out and upside down

She moved to me, looked me up and looked me down and whispered in my ear

She said boy yeah it looks like you've been here before

I said yes and then smiled and proceeded to talk

About the weather, about love and the youth of today

Then we laughed, said our goodbyes and went on our way

A second look was all it took for me to fall
Down on my knees she kept me down but still I rose
No conversations passed between her scented lipsN

No room to talk the lights went out hearts beating fastS

She moved to me, took my hand and held me close and told me I was hers

She said boy don't be scared were just changing the world
That's when I realised it was more than just thrills
In that moment I discarded all that I once knewJ

Just so I could savour each second with her

Foundations gained but no more walls left to build
This ship has sailed and left behind a stranded soul
No mutiny as we passed in the night
A night so bright filled with ever lasting light
She went away just as quick as she came on in
And left me all alone

She said boy were alive now then all became clear
And I knew this could never be anything more
Than lost souls passing in the dead of the night
So I went back to making faces from the clouds

   
Run

A song written in the middle of the All I Have Is Here sessions. The tittle of the album was taken from the lyrics within this song. The song also features Jonathan's wife on piano.

There's a chill in the air
And it cuts through my bones
And all I have is here

We could take on them all
We could make this our own
And never fall from grace

And even if we run tonight
Through the streets and city lights
We could only ever hide
Cause soon they'll take us all alive

We could say our goodbyes
Leave them all behind
We'll turn our backs on them all

We could lose it all
Navigate by the stars
Cause all we need is here
