The Sequel 05:05

The Sequel Is real life catching up with us? I thought we’d be dreaming forever Will loosing youth tear us apart? I thought we’d be dreaming together I feel like that sparkle in your eyes is gone Is this a war? Is this a war? I thought that you weren’t fighting anymore I spent the years holding back the tears, fighting off the fears, hiding what was clear to me That this could never be what it used to be Because the expectation of conversation is causing frustration because it don’t feel right I, I used to know you but now you lead a different life We made plans before they sent you there And it’s been three long years, no one has to tell me that ain’t fair I feel like that sparkle in your eyes is gone Is this a war? Is this a war? I thought that you weren’t fighting anymore When you were 18 it was the first time that they made you use a gun And while I don’t think there is ever a right time, well I’m sure as hell that is too young I don’t think that you had time to find out who you were Maybe now you will but I know that those scars are always going to be sore We made plans before they sent you there And it’s been three long years, no one has to tell me that ain’t fair I feel like that sparkle in your eyes is gone Is this a war? Is this a war? I thought that you weren’t fighting anymore All of this war, what is it for? You know I don’t see you ever smiling anymore When you used to tell me about the world you used to tell me about both sides When you used to tell me about the world © Natalie and the Romance All rights reserved

Four Years - Natalie and the Romance When you first introduced her it was such a shock to me Because you said that you were mine only earlier this week You never talked about her and I thought you wanted me But it was done before it started and it broke me completely I waited two long years, I thought you might come back Because so often I would catch you looking at me I knew she wasn’t right for you, I knew she treated you mean And I thought you thought you would have been so much better off with me I would have loved you right, I would have held you tight I’d never let you go, you can’t tell me that you don’t know I would have let you dream, I’d let your scars be seen But you made your choice then, you don’t get to make it again Because it’s been 4 years, yeah it’s been 4 years , yeah it’s been 4 years So why are you calling me now? Sometimes in class you sit down with me And you’d play those songs that I used to sing Were you trying to tell me something? Trying to stir up memories? Should’ve said it like a man if you’d of really wanted me I would have loved you right, I would have held you tight I’d never let you go, you can’t tell me that you don’t know I would have let you dream, I’d let your scars be seen But you made your choice then, you don’t get to make it again Because it’s been 4 years, yeah it’s been 4 years , yeah it’s been 4 years So why are you calling me now? Gracie told me that you left her, You’ve been asking after me These days I can laugh about it like it was only just a dream Because it’s been 4 years, yeah it’s been 4 years , yeah it’s been 4 years So why are you calling me now? Calling me now Calling me now Calling me now Calling me now I would have loved you right, I would have held you tight I’d never let you go, you can’t tell me that you don’t know I would have let you dream, I’d let your scars be seen But you made your choice then, you don’t get to make it again Because I waited, and I waited, and I waited So why are you calling me? I waited, and I waited, and I waited © Natalie and the Romance All rights reserved

No Question 02:50

No Question - Natalie and the Romance It's not a question of whether or not I can It's just a question of how I'm going to get there I do not have a doubt what my dreams are about I can't afford to stop, I'm coming up. I'm gonna to go far and I'm gonna raise the bar And if I do, ha! When I do, I am gonna enjoy the view Because I can say with pride that this is the love of my life And I hope all of your dreams come true too. It's not a question of whether or not I can It's just a question of how I'm going to get there I do not have a doubt what my dreams are about I can't afford to stop, I'm coming up. I had a vision of something a little far beyond But I was told that it wouldn't, it couldn't, it shouldn't be done But I persisted on, I'll prove them wrong And when I look back I only see the stardust as it lingers on. It's not a question of whether or not I can It's just a question of how I'm going to get there I do not have a doubt what my dreams are about I can't afford to stop, I'm coming up. So don't you let nobody tell you What you can or what you can't do When you dream you have no limits So take that dream put yourself in it. It's not a question of whether or not I can It's just a question of how I'm going to get there I do not have a doubt what my dreams are about I can't afford to stop, I'm coming up. It's not a question of whether or not I can It's just a question of how I'm going to get there I do not have a doubt what my dreams are about I can't afford to stop, I'm coming up. © Natalie and the Romance All rights reserved

I heard you been doing lines babe, you call yourself a friend of mine? You won’t give it up for my sake, so you go on and I’ll be fine I guess that I’m just surprised babe, I thought that you got clean but I can’t put it up for debate, I ain’t got the energy or the time I guess that I thought that when it stole your heart you had already cried all your tears If that’s not enough then I guess that you're tougher than what I had thought all those years What will it take till you see? We lost one, then two, you wanna make it three? I couldn’t bare to ring your mother and tell her how much I loved you darling I can’t watch you repeat your worst, knowing how much that shit hurts So vacant in your eyes, on the come down from low highs I know you're thinking of yourself but I’m beggin for my health I love you furiously, I thought you wouldn’t do this too me I know I know you're thinking of yourself but I’m beggin for my health I love you furiously so darling don’t do this too me I heard you been doing lines babe I heard you been doing lines babe I heard you been doing lines babe I heard you been doing lines babe I heard you been doing lines babe, you call yourself a friend of mine? You won’t give it up for my sake, so you go on and I’ll be fine I guess that I’m just surprised babe, I thought that you got clean but I can’t put it up for debate, I ain’t got the energy or the time I guess that I thought that when it stole your heart you had already cried all your tears If that’s not enough then I guess that you're tougher than what I had thought all those years I know you're thinking of yourself but I’m beggin for my health I love you furiously, I thought you wouldn’t do this too me I know I know you're thinking of yourself but I’m beggin for my health I love you furiously so darling don’t do this too me Should know better, should know better, should know better than to play with fire Should know better, should know better, should know better than to play with fire Should know better, should know better, should know better than to play with fire Should know better, should know better, should know better than to play with fire

Million - Natalie and the Romance I got a million things to say I just haven't found a way And I'm hating myself more with every day And I know that it's not you My darling what I've put you through Well to tell the truth I can't believe you stayed I've done nothing but break your heart Though I loved you from the start I always thought my darling deserved more I’ve got a million games I play I never take the easy way And I’ll wait for something just to start a fight And I know if I was you, I couldn’t take it like you do I have never understood how you could stay I've done nothing but break your heart Though I loved you from the start I always thought my darling deserved more Yeah I always thought It doesn't matter what you say It wouldn't be right to make you stay Even though I can't bear to see you go We got a million things to say Neither of us get our way And it breaks my spirit every single day And now what it's done to me I don't feel proud when I step back and see The person that it's made me out to be I've done nothing but break your heart Though I loved you from the start I always thought my darling deserved more Yeah I always thought my darling deserved more Yeah I always thought my darling deserved more © Natalie and the Romance All rights reserved

Sunder Nagar - Natalie and the Romance I'm dreaming in ten thousand colours I float through creations of my mind Two heartbeats make a beautiful rhythm In the absence of linear time In the absence of linear time I let a raindrop fall into the ocean And feeling the different that has made I walk down the path of pure devotion Releasing the love that I had saved I am releasing the love that I had saved I'm dreaming I'm dreaming I-I-I'm dreaming I'm dreaming of Sunder Nagar Set me free Let me be Set me free Let me be I take in the silence of the mountains I can't see the future through the mist The souls of my feet are moving on the bare earth I am standing in a place where I found peace I am standing in a place where I found peace I'm dreaming I'm dreaming I'm dreaming I'm dreaming of Sunder Nagar © Natalie and the Romance All rights reserved
