Brooke Fraser – Something In The Water
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(Verse 1)
I’ll wear a demeanor made of bright pretty things
What she wears, what she wears, what she wears
Birds singing on my shoulder, in harmony it seems
How they sing, how they sing, how they sing
(Pre-Chorus)
Give me nights of solitude, redmond just a glass or two
Reclined in a hammock, on a bummy evening
I’ll pretend that it’s no thing, there’s skip in my heart when I think
Aren’t you thinkin bout me babe, I’m crazy over you
(Chorus)
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
There’s something in the water
Something in the water
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
There’s something in the water
That makes me love you like
(Verse 2)
I got halos made of summer, rhythms made of spring
What she wears, what she wears, what she wears
I got crowns of water woven, each with a song to sing
Oh I sing, oh I sing, oh I sing
(Pre-Chorus)
Give me long days in the sun, previous to the nights to come
Previews of the mornings laying in or lazy
Give me something fun to do, like a life of loving you
Kiss me quick now baby, I’m still crazy over you
(Chorus)
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
There’s something in the water
Something in the water
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
There’s something in the water
That makes me love you like
(Bridge)
Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo

(Pre-Chorus)
Give me nights of solitude
Redmond just a glass or two
Give me something fun to do
(Chorus)
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
There’s something in the water
Something in the water
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
There’s something in the water
That makes me love you like i do

“Albertine”
I am sitting still
I think of Angelique
her mothers voice over me
And the bullets in the wall where it fell silent
And on a thousandth hill, I think of Albertine
there in her eyes what I don’t see with my own
rwanda
[CHORUS]
now that I have seen, I am responsible
Faith without deeds is dead
now that I have held you in my own arms, I cannot let go till you are
I am on a plane across a distant sea
But I carry you in me
and the dust on, the dust on, the dust on my feet
Rwanda
[CHORUS]
[BRIGDE]
I will tell the world, I will tell them where I’ve been
I will keep my word
I will tell them Albertine
[CHORUS]
I am on a stage, a thousand eyes on me
I will tell them, Albertine
I will tell them, Albertine
Before a neon night’s lighting I’m right beside you
The fire in motion
The fire in motion
The desert sun sinking
Sleepy and low
But we’re just waking
We are waking
River time is a mountain tonight
Before tomorrow she flows on
Carving valleys in the skin on our faces
I am bright as the sun
You are high as a kite
We are daughters, sons, brothers and sisters tonight
At Coachella
Coachella
Come on now darling, let’s shake off these blues
I’ll let my hair out, you’ll slip off your shoes
I feel like a baby, newborn in the spring
I’m setting down the sadness and I won’t remember it
When I’m bright as the sun
And you are high as a kite
And we are daughters, sons, brothers and sisters tonight
At Coachella
Coachella
I’m a warm bleeding heart
You’re a generous soul
And I love you though I’d never met you before
Till Coachella
Coachella
We are standing on the shore
In the smoke, in the starlight
On the edge of a human sea
And the tide is in
I am bright as the sun
You are high as a kite
We are daughters, sons, brothers and sisters tonight
At Coachella
Coachella
I’m a warm bleeding heart
You’re a generous soul
and I love you though I’d never met you before
Till Coachella
Coaechella
Oooh ooh oooh ooh
Coachella
Do do do do do do do do do do
I wear a demeanor made of bright pretty things
What she wears, what she wears, what she wears
Birds singing on my shoulder in harmony it seems
How they sing, how they sing, how they sing
Give me nights of solitude, red wine just a glass or two, reclined in a hammock on a balmy evening
I’ll pretend that it’s no thing that’s skipping my heart when I think
are you thinking bout’ babe? I’m crazy over you
Aaah Aaah Aaah
there’s something in the water, something in the water
Aaah Aaah Aaah
There’s something in the water, that makes me love you like –
I’ve got halo’s made of summer, rhythms made of spring
What she wears, what she wears, what she wears
I got crowns of words a woven each one a song to sing
Oh I sing, oh I sing, oh I sing
Give me long days in the sun, preludes to the nights to come previews of the mornings laying in all lazy give me something fun to do like a life of loving you
Kiss me quick now baby I’m still crazy over you

Brooke Fraser – Betty
You got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
You got your YSL kicks and a red birthmark
In the shape of Canada
That you try to keep a secret
You got a quick clack walk and a cold hard stare
And if your eyes could talk they’d say they just don’t care
Before they wander off
To hide inside their sockets
You’ve got your scars and you’ve got your birthmarks
You’ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You’ve got your secrets
You’ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do
You got a fool-proof plan for a lonely life
You won’t be no one’s daughter and no drunk man’s wife
If a wife at all
It’s a silly institution
Or so you keep insisting
You’ve got your scars and you’ve got your birthmarks
You’ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You’ve got your secrets
You’ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do
You’re cool coy, ’bout to stroll, very hip
It’s you that’s hidden by the expectations
We want to see you, won’t you show us where to start?
You’re talking trash with your red liquor lips
It’s you that tickle in the conversation
Sweet Betty, won’t you show us who you are?
You’ve got your scars and you’ve got your birthmarks
You’ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You’ve got your secrets
You’ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do
You’ve got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart

“C.S. Lewis Song”
If I find in myself
Desires nothing in this world can satisfy
I can only conclude
That I, I was not made for here
If the flesh that I fight
Is at best only light and momentary
Then of course, I’ll feel nude
When to where I’m destined I’m compared
[Chorus]
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the mornin’
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me
Am I lost or just less found
On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way
Is this a soul that stirs in me
Is it breaking free, wanting to come alive
‘Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
And avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the mornin’
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me
For we
We are not long here
Our time is but a breath
So we better breathe it
And I
I was made to live
I was made to love
I was made to know you
Hope
Is comin’ for me
Hope
Is comin’ for me
Hope
Is comin’ for me
Hope
He’s comin’
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the mornin’, mornin’
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me, for me, for me, for me…
