Once Things Look Up

I put a wager on uncertainty

It's funny when you wager how you feel

I hit the breaking point

Then broke on through

I'm never certain when it comes to you

Once things look up

I come falling down

Too deep to take a step

And look around

Once things look up

I come falling down

I bottle up the pieces

(And repair)

But every time we break

I'm building still

Stand back and marvel at what we have made

It's hard to notice when you run away

Once things look up

I come falling down

Too deep to take a step

I'm buried now

Once things look up

I come falling down

Wouldn't it nice

If we could both be right

So we could go to bed each day

Without a single fight

And we would be alright

And you could say goodnight

Instead of just

Goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye

Ah

Once you look up

Sun will hide your frowns

Too light to see the dark

So hidden now

Once things look up

I come falling down

I try and nothing's there

Behind the clouds

Ah

Once I look up

All comes falling down

Wishing He Was Dead

Why When the Love is Gone

I Can See It in Your Eyes

Trouble in Paradise

Catch Me if You Can

You Bring Me Down

Waves That Never Break
