All I Can Do
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)

You said I walk too quickly
But you’re the only one
And now I tiptoe lightly
Without your helping hand
Your time and your sweet company
Seemed worth more than gold
But I find peace in the water
Even when it’s running cold
And I
I don’t care if I lose or win
And I
I’d be there if you let me in
And that’s all I can do
You told your friends that I was
Nothing more than a choice to go
And I know I act like I’m strong but
I just want to let you know
That deep inside this heart there’s
A sensitive soul who cares
So I hope you’ll understand
That I
Really don’t care if I win or lose
And I
don’t want this game of whose is whose
Well you say that we’re worlds apart
Well you’d say this and I’d say that
But oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Well how I wish sometimes it could be like before
But did you notice how I’d never ask for more?
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Well now you see that I
I really am in black and white
And all I can do
Is show you that I’m here for you
And that’s all I can do
Oooo ooooo ooooo
You said I walk too quickly
But you’re the only one.

Feel No Pain
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
It’s cold outside and I’m wondering where to go,
Though it’s warm in I can still feel the cold,
Don’t you hate it when you try to keep a light in mind,
Some bad news comes chills you right to the bone.
But then I see your face
And I feel hope again,
Just the sight of you
It’s like coming back home,
And then I give you my love
I guess that’s all I can do
Wrap it all around you,
Cos I don’t ever want to let you go.
Cos I don’t want to live a lie (want to live a lie)
So I will love you ‘til the day I die
Because of you I feel no pain
I feel no pain.
And I don’t care what you say
I’m gonna love you anyway ...
It’s cold outside and I’m wondering what I should do,
‘S though it’s warm in I can still feel the cold
But then I look in your eyes
I know I’m going to make it through
‘Cos you’re the reason I breathe
So it doesn’t matter what I do,
And then I give you my love
I hope you carry it wherever you go
Cos I don’t want to live a lie (don’t want to live a lie)
So I will love you ‘til the day I die
Because of you I feel no pain
No I don’t want to live a lie (don’t want to live a lie)
So I will love you ‘til the day I die
Because of you I feel no pain
I feel no pain ...

I Don’t Mind
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
Everybody’s talking about where they’ve been
What they’ve done, who they’ve seen
And I don’t mind
I just want to live my life
Everybody’s asking about who’s been where
What they said and ..
Well I’m sorry but I don’t care
Cos I just want to live my life
Where are you and which way can you find
The way back to the place you left behind?
Round and around and round it goes
Where there’s Facebook, everyone knows
And I don’t mind (I really don’t mind)
Cos I just want to live my life
I just want to live my life (don’t you want to live your life?)
Can someone tell me which way can we find
The way back to the place we know is right?
Can someone tell me which way do we go
When we’re all gone what will our children know?

Know My Name
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
Started on Monday morning
I made a choice to be somebody.
They say I did good I got through my degree,
Just take a look at me
I’m fine.
I’ll never wipe a tear from my eyes
Cos I never have a reason to cry
I’ve got everything I need and more
Just take a look at me,
I’m fine.
But now I tell a different story,
If you see me now just walk on past me,
I’m ashamed to say I’ve lost it all and died
Every piece of me inside.
And now I cry,
You see me wipe the tears from my eyes,
I’ve got nothing left to give and I die
Every time I have to beg for somewhere to rest my head.
Most people don’t see me or know my name
And some have even tried to hurt me or cause me pain.
You would not believe all the things I have seen.
Oh oohh
And now I cry,
You see me wipe the tears from my eyes
I got nothing left to give and I die
Every time I have to beg for somewhere to rest my head.
And now I cry,
You see me wipe the tears from my eyes
I got nothing left to give and I die.
I’ve lost everything I need
Just take a look at me.

I Ran
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)

It was the end of ’98 and my life felt new,
The air was getting colder naturally
And his eyes met mine across the room and smiled at me
And made me feel a million dollars new.
Well the time went on we had such fun,
The music played,
The special way he placed his hand in mine.
I didn’t know how to show him how I felt inside
So instead I turned the other way,
For fear that he might laugh at me
I ran, I ran
I ran, I ran
Oh how I miss the way my life it used to be
And all my friends and family abundantly
And it made me feel so good when he understood
And I thought at last maybe I’d be free.
But as time went by my heart it grew mixed up inside
And I ran away and felt it all so strongly
And after all this time and tears that I won’t cry
I realise how I behaved so wrongly,
I did, I did, I ran,
I ran.
For fear that he might laugh at me
I ran, I ran.
I did, I did, I ran.
I ran, I ran. I ran.

This Time Around
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
I don’t know why but I’ve been feeling not so good these days.
All that once was seems to be fading
And now I’m on my knees.
Won’t you help me find some peace of mind?
Show me you’re a true born friend of mine?
Cos I don’t know why but I’ve been falling fast
Into these games we play.
Once my heart smiled,
And now so weary,
How then could that be?
And I want to pass it all over,
Why so hard to see?
Won’t you hold my hand this time around?
Help me get my feet back on the ground?
Cos I know that the light shines in this heart of hearts
And I need to know that you’ll be there just this one time around.
One time around.
This time around,
This time around.

Effortless
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
All along we knew,
Sometimes that's the hardest thing,
But I must spread my wings
Mmm follow my dreams.
But before I walk away
I will softly say
Now that I’m here
Now I can see all that it was meant to be,
But I'll still hold it in my heart
Just like I did from the very start.
Not like a child making a friend
Words confuse and complicate
Effortless, well I did try
But I fear it's time for me to say goodbye.
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
But I never will forget 'til I return
Just please don't ask me why
Cos I won't tell you then
Who was to know
I must leave you now and you must let me go
But before I walk away
I hear you softly say
Now that I'm here
Now I can see all that it was meant to be
But I'll still hold it in my heart
Just like I did from the very start
And not like a child making a friend
Words confuse and complicate
Effortless, well I did try
But I fear it's time for me to say goodbye.
Now that I'm here
Now I can see all that it was meant to be,
But I'll still hold it in my heart
Just like I did from the very start
And not like a child making a friend
Words confuse and complicate.
Effortless, well I did try
But I fear it's time for me to say goodbye.
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh.

ONE MORE DAY
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
I’m so tired of working late through the night ‘til the break of day,
I wish I could have more to say,
And when I can’t find words people look at me like I’ve gone and lost my mind,
Cos they’ve gone before they came.
But those sleepless nights won’t make me give up the fight no,
No matter what the people might say,
So just give me
One more day,
One more day (to make it right),
One more day (to feel okay).
I’m so bored of chasing dreams and all the things that they seem to be,
It just takes up too much time,
But those long long days won’t make me give up the fight no,
Cos where there’s a will there’s always a way,
So just give me
One more day,
One more day (to make it right),
One more day (to feel okay-ay-ay.
A-a-a-ay).
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oo oo oo oo
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oo oo oo oo)
One more day,
One more day,
One more day (to make it right),
One more day (to feel okay-ay-ay).
One more day (you might see a brand new me),
One more day (and it can be so easy),
One more day (just one more day),
One more day (and I’m never gonna give up),
One more day (just got to keep on moving),
One more day (just one more day-ay-ay yeah-ay yeah-ay)
One more day.

Sticks And Stones
(Written by Eleanor Dorothy Wild)
©2015 remarqabl ltd.
See that girl go everyday
Through the old brown gates
As she goes to pick her boy up from his school.
And as she walks on up that path
All eyes fall down on her
She can feel them burning like a flame inside her head.
And soon the whispers start up in the yard
And even though she smiles it hurts so hard.
Not everyone would recognise
But I could see it in her eyes,
If only they could know what they had done.
Mother's love is all we need
To get us through those times
When the cold is all we face with each new day.
She said "sticks and stones may break my bones but
Words can never hurt me"
But if only they could know the bad that they had made.
And all the while she loves with all her heart
Like the way she always did from the start,
The child she bore into the world,
His diamond eyes, his sweet blond curl,
So take those thoughtless words and be gone.
Cos you know just what they say
There's a word, it starts with K
And if you'd only see
You could be free.
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, mm mm mmm.
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh- oh-oh.
Sticks and stones might break my bones
And words they just might hurt me,
But you can take all yours and be gone.
