Ditched Romance
Sitting there across the table
I'd like to say hello but I'm not sure I'm able
And besides, what might you do?
You've been around here for a while
I guess I could forgive you for that smile
But I think, it might be too late
What if I ditched romance?
What if I just took this chance?
For once I could do something crazy
Future seems a little hazy
Seems you've got me mesmerized
All it took was one look in your eyes
Oh no, I'm loosing control
You've got me feeling so at ease
It won't be long before I'm begging please
Babe, can I take you home?
What if I ditched romance?
What if I just took this chance?
For once I could do something crazy
Future seems a little hazy
What if I did?
You're so innocent as you kiss my cheek goodnight
And I don't put up a fight
Proper lady has to do what's right
But what if I ditched romance?
What if I just took this chance?
For once I could do something crazy
Future seems a little hazy
I could skip the heart ache, baby
What if I ditched romance?
What if I ditched romance?
What if I ditched romance?

Fade Away
You're a candle burning at both ends and I can't bear to watch you wane
There's a shadow hanging over you my friend and I can't see your shining face
And I won’t stand to watch you fade
I won’t stand to watch you, watch you, watch you fade away
You've been best friends for oh so many years and you love each other so
How could he walk away from a gift like that? Can't he see you're worth much more?
How can he stand to watch you fade
I won’t stand to watch you, watch you, watch you fade away
All your silence a disguise cause I know you scream inside
Why don't you let it, let it all out tonight?
Stand up and fight, ‘cause you know that I'm right
That sparkle in your eye, no I won't let it die
Cause I won’t stand to watch you fade
I won’t stand to watch you, watch you, watch you fade away

Lakeside Reels
In my small home town, on a hot summer's night
Rode my bicycle for hours, just to dance with you in the moonlight
Threw pebbles at your window, you were nowhere in sight
Then you came outside to say "It's late, go home, goodnight"
Will I get my happy ending? How many more takes left?
Sunset scenes and lakeside reels, every girl's fairy dream
Sunset scenes and lakeside reels, is this how a movie feels?
On the day after Christmas, I cashed in all my gifts
Had to be on that plane that night, be in Paris for New Year's Eve
I scaled the Eiffel Tower for what might have been
Waited up there for hours, you were nowhere to be seen
Will I get my happy ending? How many more takes left?
Sunset scenes and lakeside reels, every girl's fairy dream
Sunset scenes and lakeside reels, is this how a movie feels
I'd like a brand new story
There's no direction on this set
I could really use a sequel
Somebody write a sequel please
And give it a happy ending. How many more takes left?
Sunset scenes and lakeside reels, every girl's fairy dream
Sunset scenes and lakeside reels, lakeside reels, lakeside reels, is this how it feels?

Who Will Love Me?
Perfect, never said I could be, I fucked things up too many times
Wrong, sometimes I can be, and it hurts like hell each time I break a heart
Do my best I try, I try
Til the day, the day I die
Who will love me for who I am?
Who will forgive my every mistake?
When the shit hits the fan and I'm losing my mind
Who will still be there?
Sorry, I've said so many times, apologized when things were not my fault
Love often makes me run, I'm waiting for the one who'll run with me
Be myself I try, I try
Til the day, the day I die
Who will love me for who I am?
Who will forgive my every mistake?
When the shit hits the fan and I'm losing my mind
Who will still be there?
I’ll continue to give more
I know someday it will show
Who will love me for who I am?
Who will forgive my every mistake?
When the shit hits the fan and I'm losing my mind
Who will still be there?
Who will still be there?

I Was The Girl
January night in this warm cafe
There's a layer of frost round my heart
You're such a good friend, someone who will listen
To this story that tore me apart
I understand if you're wanting to leave
I'm pretty much used to it now
But it's finally clear and I need to share it
I now know a good place to start
Well he kissed me in May
I kissed him in June
Too soon we were lost in the game
He chased me so fast
I tripped on my words
Sometimes we fall when we’re running
August moon in my glass of wine
He sure saw the stars in my eyes
Thought I didn't want love
But it felt good to hold on
When passion rose like fireflies
He was a mystery, one of a kind
I wanted to figure him out
And I was the girl, he wished he'd forgot
Yet somehow I was etched on his mind
Since he kissed me in May
I kissed him in June
Too soon we were lost in the game
He chased me so fast
I tripped on my words
Sometimes we fall when we’re running
So tell me
How could it be, that such a bad boy had stumbled and fallen for me?
How could it be, the tables have turned
He's made a bad girl of me
He's made a bad girl of me
When he kissed me in May
I kissed him in June
Too soon we were lost in the game
He chased me so fast
I tripped on my words
Sometimes we run when we’re falling
January night in this warm cafe

Giving Love a Try
I am not strong, but I sure as hell ain't weak
I've built these walls around me so thick, so thick
Gonna break your heart, gonna leave you here alone
So I'm giving you a head start to run for the door
I'm not the girl you want to save
Got nothing but a battered heart to spare
You won't want to be around when my walls come crumbling down
You won't want to be the one when I break down and cry
But if you are, if you are
I thank you for giving love a try
I am not fierce, so quietly I'll fight
I won't give up so quickly when something feels right
Crawl out of my shell, gonna let you feel my warmth
I know that you could hurt me, but I'll risk the burn
You are the one I want to show
Even battered hearts have room for love to grow
You know I'll be around when your walls come crumbling down
You know I'll be the one when you break down and cry
And if I were, if I were
I'm thankful that I gave love a try
Stand before you so afraid to take that step
and you whisper to me that you're not ready yet
You know I'll be around when your walls come crumbling down
I know you'll be the one when I break down and cry
And if I am
If you are
I'm thankful that we gave love a try
So thankful, we gave it a try

Who Will Love Me?
Perfect, never said I could be, I messed things up too many times
Wrong, sometimes I can be, and it hurts like hell each time I break a heart
Do my best I try, I try
Til the day, the day I die
Who will love me for who I am?
Who will forgive my every mistake?
When it all hits the fan and I'm losing my mind
Who will still be there?
Sorry, I've said so many times, apologized when things were not my fault
Love often makes me run, I'm waiting for the one who'll run with me
Be myself I try, I try
Til the day, the day I die
Who will love me for who I am?
Who will forgive my every mistake?
When it all hits the fan and I'm losing my mind
Who will still be there?
I’ll continue to give more
I know someday it will show
Who will love me for who I am?
Who will forgive my every mistake?
When it all hits the fan and I'm losing my mind
Who will still be there?
Who will still be there?

Ania Ziemirska Toronto, Ontario
Ania Ziemirska's whiskey and honey-dipped vocals pour over edgy-folk and pop-infused melodies. Written over the course of a year in 2007-2008, her debut EP, I Was The Girl captures a pivotal moment in the evolution of an artist. Songs of longing, love and hope, with a dash of sarcasm, garner her inevitable comparisons to Sarah McLachlan, Chrissie Hynde and Martha Wainwright. ... more
