I wish I could write you the perfect love song But nothing would do you justice I wish I could show you how much I love you But it's so vast you can't just measure it But this love will never die But this love will never fade I will love you right to the end To my very last heartbeat To my last heartbeat Everything is so fragile in this life It can all be stolen away in a heart beat But this love will never die But this love will never fade I will love you right to the end To my very last heartbeat To my last heartbeat And I will always be available to you If you need me then I'll be there Forever and always I'll be there I'll always be there But this love will never die But this love will never fade I will love you right to the end To my very last heartbeat To my last heartbeat

What were you thinking about when you looked at the stars tonight? Did you make a wish upon the shooting star as it soared across the sky? Is love on your shopping list for life? Are you ready to let love in again? I've been searching for a lover I was hoping you would be my significant other I've been searching for a lover I was hoping my search is now over now I've found you Now I've found you Now I've found you I was hoping you'd feel the same way too I'll always remember the time we spent together as the best days of my life I'm ready to open my heart to love for the first time in years I made a wish upon a shooting star and I hope it comes true I made a wish upon a shooting star and I asked for you I've been searching for a lover I was hoping you would be my significant other I've been searching for a lover I was hoping my search is now over now I've found you Now I've found you Now I've found you I was hoping you would feel the same way you too Now I've found you Now I've found you Now I've found you I was wishing upon a shooting star for you I was wishing upon a shooting star for you I was wishing upon a shooting star for you I was wishing upon a shooting star for you Wishing for you Wishing for you Wishing for you

I was only 18 when I met you I was trying so hard to be a rock star Playing with my own rock band It's a shame that my band, Bad Karma Didn't get anywhere But that's the music business for you Sometimes it's a case of who you know Or in my case it's who don't offend Hand on my heart I tried for you Hand on my heart I tried it's true Hand on my heart I tried for you Hand on my heart I tried it's true By the time I was 21 I knew I was going nowhere I'd made too many mistakes to bounce back from Important people and I just swept aside I didn't believe I needed them in my life I'm so sorry I never realised how much I needed you too I'm sorry I never realised until you were gone Hand on my heart I tried for you Hand on my heart I tried it's true Hand on my heart I tried for you Hand on my heart I tried it's true I guess I'm just not the type to settle down I guess it's just not my style I guess I'm not the type to settle down I guess it's just not my style On my heart I tried for you Hand on my heart I tried it's true Hand on my heart I tried for you Hand on my heart I tried

Your Tears 03:36
You opened the door and I could see it in your eyes You've been crying again probably been crying all night What are you doing wasting your life? Get out and do something that makes you feel alive You've got yourself engaged in some sort of love affair She is half your age, she might even be younger than I am She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you I've heard you on the phone pleading with her So I've got a fair idea of what is going on You're gonna end up losing it all She's not gonna keep your secret She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you You've gotta think about what you're gonna lose When she breaks the news You're gonna lose it all after you spent a lifetime happily married and now you want to start trouble She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you She's not worth your tears She won't be crying for you

I miss seeing you around on the streets of Glasgow I miss the nights we had in the Polo lounge I miss the sound of your voice in my ear I miss your touch so gentle and soft I miss your antics even your attitude I miss the way you make me smile with a look Yeah I know you didn't pick me Yeah I know maybe it wasn't meant to be Yeah I know you are with her now But I wish that you had picked me As I get older I think of you more Cause I regret the way things ended By the time I put my life in order it was too late Too little far too late I told you I was trouble and I was telling the truth And I hoped one day I'd come right for you I can't blame you for not hanging around Yeah I know you didn't pick me Yeah I know maybe it wasn't meant to be Yeah I know you are with her now But I wish that you had picked me All the things you did you impress me Did make an impact I listened to every word that you said I never stopped loving you I never could I never stopped loving you I never would Yeah I know you didn't pick me Yeah I know maybe it wasn't meant to be Yeah I know you are with her now But I wish that you had picked me

Aberdeen 03:04
I wrote you a letter when I was 18 I had to tell you it was love at first sight I had to tell you your music saved my life I had to tell you that you made a difference You travelled all the way to Aberdeen just to see me and you never said a word You travelled all the way to Aberdeen just to see me and you never said a word I was in twenties when you turned up I recognised you straight away I was kinda embarrassed you saw me in my uniform I wasn't having a very good day until I set eyes on you and it was as if you took my pain away with you You travelled all the way to Aberdeen just to see me and you never said a word You travelled all the way to Aberdeen just to see me and you never said a word To tell you that I love you would be an understatement I waited my whole life for someone like you I met you years later in a crowded nightclub I wish I'd hung around and had a drink with you You travelled all the way to Aberdeen just to see me and you never said a word You travelled all the way to Aberdeen Railway station the place where I worked The place where I worked The place where I worked
