A group that makes me proud to be an Aussie - and *yes* I've seen them in concert (in Brisbane), and *yes* they're EXCELLENT!

Moreover, they have some *beautiful* heartfelt songs. Listed are my two favourites (however, I love every song of theirs - don't get me wrong!) from their first self titled album. Truly Madly Deeply is simply - *beautiful*, and Mine (one of Darren's favourites according to him during the live online chat from New York in May 1996) which is a song with overtones of sadness - one which refers more to a love that he *wishes* could have been, rather than one that is hopeful. Mine (for some unfortunate reason) is not featured on the US album.

Truly Madly Deeply
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful
'cause I'm counting on
A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning
I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky
I'll make a wish to send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of
The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you
I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right here before you
All that you need will surely come
I'll be your dream I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky fall down on me...

Mine
I wait in the darkness.
Frozen winds surround my face.
In the cover of darkness I can make believe it's you.
I feel you like the rain, I feel you like
a storm cloud building in my heart.
I wonder if you know the pain
to want the one thing you haven't got.
Just a twist in time... and you could be mine
Just a sip of wine... and you could be mine
Just a kiss divine...
A hand brushes by my love.
A smile fuels a steel inferno
You don't have to die to leave my world
Stand still and you've departed.
It seems I'm not on your mind
 and I'm just wasting my time
I'm just a  fool to believe.
In the death of the night can you feel me inside?
I wish that you could conceive...
Just a twist in time... and you could be mine
Just a  sip of wine... and you could be mine
Just a  kiss divine... and you could be mine...
Won't you leave me in the darkness
Take away the pride, all the dignity that's burning inside.
Can't you see I'm standing naked?
I'll bear all the crosses and the crucifixes you can provide.
If you could decide.
Just a twist in time... and you could be mine
Just a  sip of wine... and you could be mine
Just a  kiss divine.. and you could be mine...
