I fell in love with you the first time I looked into
And you have a certain little cute way of flirtin
With them there eyes
That make me feel so happy
That make me feel so blue
I'm fallin love strung
In a big big way for you
My heart is jumpin, you started something
With them there eyes
You better look out, little brown eyes if you're right
This spark will make bubble
They gonna get you in a whole lot of trouble
Hah, I'm ready
I fell in love with you the first time I looked into
And you have a certain little cute way of flirtin
That make me feel so happy
That make me feel so blue
I'm fallin love strung
In a big big way for you
My heart is jumpin, you started something
With them there eyes
You better look out, little brown eyes if you're right
Sparkle, bubble
I'll get you in a whole lot of trouble
I'm lookin for before I would do this for life
Yes, baby, I've been drinkin'
i know i shouldn't come by no more
But I found myself in trouble
And I had no place else to go
Got some whisky from a bottle
Got some cocaine from a friend
And I had to had to keep on pushin' darlin'
Til I was back in your arms again
And I am guilty, baby, I am guilty
And I'll be guilty for the rest of my life
How come I never do what I am supposed to do?
And when I try to do it, it never turns out right?
You know how it is, with me mother fucker
You know, I just can't stand myself
It takes a whole lot of medicine, darling
Are you a liar
Or are you a thief
Are you a dog
Cause I am the leash
Are you a son
Or are you a bitch
I am your God
The scratch you can't itch
Face forward son
Face forward son
You are your gun
I'll beat you down
Your back I will break
I'll make you beg
I'll make your soul shake
This ain't no nursery
So kiss that floor
This is your life
The american core
Face forward son
Face forward son
You are your gun
Are you a liar
Or are you a bitch
I am your God
Sick
(Beth Hart / Jon Nichols / Rune Westberg)
I beg your attention
From my generation
This is all your fault
You feed me distractions
& sell misdirections
This is all your fault
The blind are tying to lead the way
It's time someone had something to say
But nothing changes we're all strangers
Faces in the crowd
If these are the choices we get from our voices
Then you can count me out
(Chorus:)
Lay me down Over the Ocean Where the good life still exists
Lay me down Under the Covers Cause this life makes me
Sick
We're alienated suppressed and sedated
This is all your fault
Don't want compensation from your hate corporation
This is all your fault
The lost are trying to lead the way
The cost is left for us to pay
But nothin' changes we're all strangers faces in the crowd
If these are the choices we get from our voices then
You can count me out
(Chorus: Repeat)
I beg your attention
from my generation
This is all your fault
I am not discouraged
Or the slightest bit nervous
One-Eyed Chicken
[Beth Hart/Jon Nichols]
Oh father, come together
My sisters and all my brothers
Apathy, getting crazy
Help me understand
There's water there's fire
Which one should I aspire
Compassion or reaction
What will command
(Reach out and hold me or reach out and bite my hand)
[Chorus:]
I'm like a one-eyed chicken and a two-legged dog
Shrinking heads in the kitchen then I piss on the lawn
I'm not the kind of woman that you want to take home
Only heaven knows the devil's pain
I just can't change
I'm diggin' diggin' diggin' diggin' on you
Diggin' diggin' diggin' diggin' on me
We're diggin diggin diggin diggin are we
What we gonna do?
Oh father, make it better
Make my love shine bigger than ever
Tell Jesus, Never leave us, this is my prayer
There's kindness, there's cruelty
A little bit of both inside of me
Come love me Come heal me
Make me aware
(Reach out and hold me-or reach out and bite my hand)
[Chorus: Repeat]
So glad you made it
Or I'd be nothing at all
I'm tired and faded
I'm like a wreckin' Ball
[Chorus: Repeat]
If I ever leave you, baby
You can say that I told you so
And if I ever hurt you
You know I hurt myself as well
(Chorus)
How is that any way for a woman to carry on?
Do you think I want my love long gone?
Said I love you more than you'll ever know
Than you'll ever know...
(Verse)
When I wasn't making much money
You know where my paycheck went
You know I brought it home to you, baby
And I never spent a red cent
(Chorus)
How is that any way for a woman to carry on?
Do you think I want my love long gone?
Said I love you more than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
(Verse)
I'm not trying to be
Just any kind of woman, no I ain't
I'm just trying to be somebody
You can love, trust and understand
I know, I know, I know that I can be
A part of you
But no one else can see, yea
But I got to hear you say
I got to hear you say
It's alright, it's alright
(Verse)
I'm only flesh and bone
But I could be anything that you demand
I could be clean of everything
Or just a tiny grain of sand
(Chorus)
Is that any way for a woman to carry on?
Do you think I want my love long gone?
Said I love you more than you'll ever know
Said I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you baby baby baby more than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
I remember long time ago
You outside of your show
Tell me to come back
You said that I was on your jet
So then that's why all I know
Someday you will come around talking your charm
You say that you thought that you'll be mine all the time
You know just how to dream
Come down when I'm feeling right
And you're gonna see that you cannot have
And you wanna say that your love is over
But you take somebody just to take you home
Oh baby, come home, home right now yea yea yea
Alright
Farewell, it's over, go
I know that someday
She will find
So come back to me
You're mine, baby
So baby won't you say?
This time you're gonna come around here
I thought you're gonna save me
You say you'll never get out and above
Oh, many times before
You say you were coming and knocking at my door
But I was low
Yea, but you will see
Hey Miss Lady, come on home
But that don't mean you live alone
Hey Miss Lady, come on home
I need ya in my soul
Miss Lady, come on back
Oh yea hey
I'm comin I'm comin I'm comin to set you free
All the time
It's in my heart
She combs her hair
& cleans her face
closes the door
and kneels to pray
It don't matter
that she's alone
beast or dragon
she's going home
chorus:
If I lay me down
bow me head onto the ground
would you heal my skin
and these blisters within my skin
She found today
so hard to say
I sweat the sheets
too tired to play
& it don't matter
'cause I'm still alive
Beast or Dragons
wont make me hide, make me hide, make me hide...
(repeat chorus)
another way
I just can't find the words to say
it's cold where I lay
It's cold where I lay
bones cracked to clay
a killer's in the way
hot is my shame
fire pulls my veins
for never is my name
forever in my shame
and holy, come heal me
solely, delivery, deliver ay yay
Go on and crash the car
take the keys I won't get far
Nowhere will do just fine
Here I am again
beginning at another end
there's no turning back this time
Don't let me down
I need you now
to make it easy
Dying ain't that hard
So in a little while
I'm gonna make it easy
make it easy
The sweet sunshine won't let me be
a good man wants to marry me
I burn my house down to the ground
Wine and Roses and a symphony
The best things in life are terrifying me
I break my heart every time
Don't let me down
I need you now
to make it easy
Dying ain't that hard
So in a little while
I'm gonna make it easy
make it easy
Don't let me down
I need you now
to make it easy
Dying ain't that hard
So in a little while
I'm gonna make it easy
make it easy
Do you want the good news?
or the bad news?
Do you want the good things
No, you want everything
Keep your possessions, I've made my decision
and it was easy, easy
I've waited for this all my life
Don't let me down
I need you now
to make it easy
Dying ain't that hard
So in a little while
I'm gonna make it easy
make it easy
Don't let me down
I need you now
to make it easy
Dying ain't that hard
So in a little while
I'm gonna make it easy
Something told me that it was over, baby, yeah
When I saw you
When I saw you and that girl
And y'all was talking
Something deep down
Something deep down in my soul said
"Go on, go on and cry, girl"
When I saw you, when I saw you with that same person
And y'all was walking around
And I'd rather
I'd rather be a blind girl, baby, yeah, yeah
Than to see you walk away, walk away from me, baby
Don't leave me, I don't wanna see you go
'Cause you see, I love you so much
And I don't wanna watch you leave me
Don't wanna watch you leave me, baby
And another thing is, one more thing is
I just don't, I just don't wanna be free
Scared to be by myself
I was just, I was just sitting here thinking
About your sweet kiss and your, your warm embrace
Hmm, your warm embrace
Hmm, yo, yo, warm, warm embrace
When I look down in the glass that I held to my lips
And I saw the reflection of the tears rolling down my face
That's when I knew I love you and I couldn't do without you
And I'd rather be a blind girl
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, babe, no, babe, oh, oh
Oh babe, all day sitting up
Sitting up thinking about you
Myself, I don't wanna see you leave
Please don't go
Oh, babe, no, babe, oh, babe
I'd rather be a blind girl
Something told me that it was over, baby
When I saw you
When I saw you and that girl
And y'all was talking
Something deep down in my soul said
"Go on, go on and cry, girl"
When I saw you, when I saw you and that girl
And y'all was walking by
And I'd rather go blind, I'd rather go blind
I'd rather go blind, babe
Than to see you walk away, walk away
My love has come along
My dreams become air so
My days have arrived, yea sunny
Funny why all so blue
The man is like a drug
In the late night when I can't get enough
Love in all its splendor
Surrender its every blow
Where is the blues that I know?
This is love, what was I thinking?
This is love, what the hell am I, am I gonna do?
And that man, he got me sinking
To the bottom of the blue
It's what I choose
Love is the baddest blues
The joy versus the kind
No, my joy, it ain't the same
So I put it plain and simple
Just like front page news
Love is the baddest blues
Love is the baddest blues
This is love, what was I thinking?
This is love, what the hell am I, am I gonna do?
And that man, he got me sinking
To the bottom of the blue
Guess that I, I'll lose
Forever Young
[Beth Hart / Rune Westberg / James Thomas]
It was you and me
Sitting in an apple tree
At the summer's end
We were only seventeen
We held on so tight, that September night
Then you promised me
[Chorus:]
We're never getting older we're never gonna be that way
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
Let them say we're crazy, ‘cause we already won
When you promised me, we'd be forever young
I got your letter
I can't seem to put it down
It makes it better
To have a piece of you around
They're all just strangers
Their words don't mean a thing
I swear I'll die here
I swear that I'd do anything
To be back again, at the summer's end
When you promised me
We're never getting older, we're never gonna be that way
Remember when I told ya we would make it out someday
They still say we're crazy and I still say we won
When you promised me, we'd be forever young
Sooner or later-time gets the best of you
I should've known better-you gotta do what you gotta do
If I had me a river
I'd sit and watch it run by
I'd never let it run dry
Jealousy
[Beth Hart]
Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down
When a man just don't want you, no part of you around
Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down, all the way down
I ain't no soldier-ain't no savior-ain't no winner
And I ain't that proud
I am just a woman-a jealous woman-who wants to love you
Love you out loud
She is so pretty, she is a beauty
She is a lady, laughin' in the clouds
[Chorus:]
Jealousy-look what you've done to me
Jealousy-look what you've done
Jealousy-look what you've done to me
Now she's loving you not me
If I could take back-you know I would take back
every mistake-in my face
I would try harder-try and be stronger
I would love longer-in every way
but she is so lovely, she's like a painting
In the garden, I can't catch my breath
[Chorus: Repeat]
Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down
When a man just don't want you, no part of you around
Love is cold hard and cruel on the way down
I'm under your spell
Ain't nobody's business
I'm already there
It ain't nobody's business
Baby. say.
Every time he walks out the door
I wonder if he's ever coming back
I can't help but love the taste of danger baby
And the how and the when and the roughness baby
I got caught out in the rain
If I die I don't care, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love with this man
I got caught out, caught out
Caught out in the rain
I heard him crying in his sleep last night
No man wants to be told he been crying
When he wakes up I tell him it's gonna be alright
But I know that he knows that I'm just relyin
I heard he shot a man down in the street
And it torn his soul apart
Last night when he was making love to me
There was a, another woman in his house
I got caught out in the rain
If I die I don't care, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love with this man
I got caught out, caught out
Caught out in the rain
In the rain.
I got caught out in the rain
If I die I don't care, I don't care
I'm in love, I'm in love
I got caught out, caught out
Caught out in the rain
In the rain.
His name
His pain
Ain't nobody's business
Ain't nobody nobody nobody business
I won't kiss and tell
I've been to hell, looked just like heaven
I met a friend, andI felt forgiven
Like you, and everyone else
I am ashamed, but I am just human
with oceans of dreams, and seas of confusion
Like you, and everyone else
Holding my breath when I just wanna scream
Hiding the face I don't want you to see
Making a mess of myself trying to be
like you, and everyone else
They put me away, and told me I'm crazy
I don't belong, but maybe they'll save me
Talk to the pain, it's been here forever
The drugs make me sane, but they don't make me better
Holding my breath when I just wanna scream
Hiding the face I don't want you to see
Making a mess of myself trying to be
like you, like you
Losing my faith when I say I believe
Looking at you for the answers I need
Walking away from myself trying to be
like you, and everyone else
Yeah, everyone else
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
'Till this is over
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me,
I am worth fighting for
Holding my breath when I just wanna scream
Hiding the face I don't want you to see
Making a mess of myself trying to be
like you, like you
Losing my faith when I say I believe
Looking at you for the answers I need
Walking away from myself trying to be
like you, and everyone else
Everyone else
Like you
Everyone else
Walk in the rain, let it fall on my face.
There's a shadow of doubt but a sky full of grace
Why have a song if you ain't gonna sing?
Make a move, do your thing
It don't really matter if you're out of tone
So enjoy yourself all afternoon
I'm putting my foot down
I swing my thing back around
And play my favorite tune
That we've begun, that I know
Wipe up the shoes if you ain't gonna dance
Free your mind, take a chance
What are you doing? Just hanging around
Show your hip – go down town
I'm putting my foot down
I swing my thing back around
And play my favorite tune
That we've begun, that I know
I'll bet you sooner than later
Head out in of the sand
Stop lying in the ghetto
Sipping whiskey with my crackers and spill
Why wear the ring if it ain't gonna shine
Tell your man you're worth doing
Why ever hide it? It ain't gonna buzz
Kiss and hide in fear his love
I'm putting my foot down
And swing my thing back a.
I'm putting my foot down
And switch this hit back a.
And blame my own damn tone
no more scars no more stones
no more words I can't.
take it no more
No more bullets No country
hypocrisy
can't take it no more
promises wash away like rain
I'll be missing you, I'll be missing you
No I, don't wanna fight No More
I'll be missing you
No more danger
your angers
the stranger I.
Can't take it no more
No more ruthless excuses
They're useless I.
can't take it no more
We're only children after all
I'll be missing you, I'll be missing you
No, I don't wanna fight No more
I don't wanna fight
I'll be missing you
We're only children after all, I swear I saw you needing me
To make you laugh, I'd play a fool for you
Although the people turn and stare
I really don't care
I would give my everything to keep you boy
It breaks my heart when you're not there
I'll stage a ballet on a tabletop
Command performance finger size
And although I ain't got no tune
My show ain't gonna flop
I'll find the music there in your eyes
Oh me oh my
I'm a fool for you baby
Oh me oh my
I am crazy baby
And oh me oh my
I'm a fool for you baby
Come on let your love light shine on me
And we'll blow a genie from a cigarette
And then we'll take a magic carpet ride
Said now yes we will
And we'll tell our smoky friends hey don't you forget
'Cause you've got to keep us side by side
Oh me oh my
I am a fool for you baby
Oh me oh my
I am crazy baby
Oh me oh my
I'm a fool for you baby
Come on let your love light shine on me
Come on let your love light shine just a little bit down on me
Come on let your love light shine, shine, shine
Oh me oh my
I'm a fool for you baby
Oh me oh my
Said I'm crazy about you baby
Oh me oh my
I'm a fool for you baby
Come on let your love light shine on me
Waterfalls
[Beth Hart / Jon Nichols / Tom Lilly / Todd Wolf]
Roll the top down
Feel the dark
Whole I'm not now
Kill it apart
[Chorus:]
Years are running by like
These old roads
Tears are falling down like
Waterfalls
Shadow boxer
Save some for me
ever after
I don't believe
[Chorus: Repeat]
Mama don't don't gimme none
Don't gimme none of that lip
Gotta get me some
Before the devil comes
I guess you're late but wasn't invited
To get out your way I did everything
But I've been falling in love with you every day
It wasn't easy, I know
Some of those nights have probably seemed impossible
I've been falling in love with you every day
If it's unknown, so concern
I turn back around
I'm climbing on the walls that I've built
To keep you out
And all the bridges you, you tried to burn
Al fallen down
It's you and me now
Next to you I want to lye
I'm your shoulder when I need to cry
I'm so happy that you came
To ease the darkness and ease the pain
I've been falling in love with you
Falling in love with you
Falling in love with you
Falling in love
Falling in love with you every day

Hey, oh, hey, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Violins hear em play
On the fence where I lay
It's where I lay
Tumble down to the ground
Watch em crash not a sound
There's no sound
And you say that it don't matter to me
And you say that all this love's for free
And you say it don't matter to me
It don't matter to me
Take me down
From consciousness
Hold me now
In decadence
Lay me in
Your house of sin
Take me down
There's no sound
Hold me now
I'm breaking in
Consciousness
Somebody swim
Tumble down onto my knee
Watch it burn
Hold your scream
Somebody sing
And you say it's nothing to me
And you say that all this war's for free
And you say still it ain't nothing to me
And I would never agree
So take me now
From consciousness
Hold me now
In decadence
Lay me in
Your house of sin
Take me down
Take me now
There's no sound
Just look around
Your consciousness if friggin weak
Just look around
Violins screaming at your feet
Just look around
You're slurring everytime you speak
I Wanna Know You
I wanna know you
I wanna feel you
I wanna know you
I wanna feel you
Something wicked is coming
Sweet sugar something so real
Get into my bed
Now sugar
And get out all your pain
I said get into my bed
And get out all your pain
I'll be your evil woman
I'll, I'll take all the blame
Alright
Talk to me
Talk to me yeah
Sweet sugar talk to me
C'mon set me free now
Hey hey
Say you're alright alright alright
You can crash my car
You can strip my break
You can make me holler
But don't forget to make me shake
I wanna know you baby
I just wanna feel you
Something wicked is coming
Sweet sugar something so real
Alright
Make me holler
Make me holler
Make me holler
Make me shake
Get into my bed
I'll be your evil woman
I'll take all the blame
Everything has changed
The sky don't shine or rain
Stars don't walk me home
So I go this road alone
But everything will turn
And the heroes feel the burn
And the outlaw speaks the truth
I was bravering by you
No, I'm not the same
But everything must change
Everyone is gone
The dogs don't get along
Cracks run through the wind
Can't live here, no one could
But everyone will come
With dreams and things they've won
Little women start to dance
Broken men get a second chance
No one is the same
But everything must change
I just wanna go
I just wanna go, go outside and roam
I just wanna see
I just wanna see the holy sun
Said and done
I can't wait no longer
Longer, longer.
Where is all the love?
Round here we all look up
And the love runs over the edge
And I just need a friend
And everywhere there's light
In the dying start to fight
And the ashes blow away
It's the most beautiful day
When it's time to say goodbye
Sweet mother, don't you cry
There'll be no more pain
Cause everything must change
Everything must change
I could fly away
Leave it all behind
I could take a train
But I would rather fly
I could escape
Through the window of my mind
But I'll never leave you behind
I've seen the place where the broken people hide
I wanna know love before I die
Open the window
Open the window
I could steal a plain
The skies, the moon, the rain
I will make a change
I'd give anything
I could escape through the window of my mind
I'll never leave you behind
I've seen the place where the broken people hide
I wanna know love before I die
I'm waiting, I'm waiting
For something, for nothing
I'm ready, I'm ready now
Open the window
Open the window
Open the window
I could escape through the window of my mind
But I'll never leave you behind
I've seen the place where the broken people hide
I wanna know love before I die
Open the window
Open the window
Crashing Down
[Beth Hart / Jon Nichols]
Hell is on to me
This desert wants a She
Black fire becomes the road
Diving down the dark
Gold inside my hear
Black fire begins to blow
[Chorus:]
I'm crashing down
There's no one for miles around
Crashing down
On the road, on the road
On the quiet side of the road
I begin to run
Begging for someone
Bring mercy for my soul
Too damn tired to breath
I'm too damn scared to scream
My will begins to slow
[Chorus: Repeat]
Guess that I just don't know better
Or I'd change my ways
I'd change everything
But we all can't live forever
So I'll take my fate
And swallow whole
I can hear his heels
The scratching of his tail
He's coming for my gold
On his chest it reads
Liars, tramps and thieves
And my name is
Big and Bold
I just stopped by
To see your face
I heard you've been out running in the heart and all over the place
So you're gone and you've decided
To give it all away to the church
You say sick but a little bit of the living hurts
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be there
Inside of you
There in your heart
There in your heart
Wherever you go
I will go too
The hour's late, I'm like lightning
Stretching far across the sky, the same, you've seen it
Must be a million years ago when I believed that I could fly
Maybe I'll burn down the house
Or build crosses from the wood
Maybe I'll go to Africa
And be lion king, if only I could
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be there
Inside of you
There in your heart
There in your heart
Wherever you go
I will go too
I was there in the beginning
You took your first rough alone
I'll be there in the ending
When the world's desire leaves your bones
And all of the corners and in all the wide open spaces in the dark
I'll be there in your heart
I'll be there in your heart
I'll be there in your heart
There in your heart
If it's not one thing, it's another
Flies buzzing around big ass huts
Not just screaming for my supper
I live in the ugliest house on the block
So wet.
So wet.
(So wet.)
I've been tryina make a little money
If you got the honey, I got the pot
I'm tired of curing and you're so lonely
I live in the ugliest house on the block
So get the hell off my lot
You get the hell off my lot
Yea, so wet.
Bidding on a dead horse for Phillip
I don't go over well with a live stock
These are serious times, these are serious killers
Next to the ugliest house on the block
I heard that they heist my house a lot
They say I ain't got a shot
I know I ain't got a shot
Yea, so wet.
Entertainment swear is hack
Reality re-runs on crack
My own dad could give a crap
I wear his love and I had a hard hat
I would run but I hate the cops
Sirens roaring, guns go pop
And rock ‘n' roll's become hip-hop
Oh well.
So wet.
Yea, so wet.
Oh hell.
Suck it up
So wet.
I swear to God I'm not a sinner
Yea I know God likes me a lot
He has saved me in the river
So I'll stay in the ugliest house on the block
I'll stay in this ugly house til I rot
Be glad for what I got
Entertainment swear is hack
Reality re-runs on crack
My own dad could give a crap
I wear his love and I had a hard hat
I would run but I hate the cops
Sirens roaring, guns go pop
And rock ‘n' roll's become hip-hop
Entertainment swear is hack
Reality re-runs on crack
My own dad could give a crap
I wear his love and I had a hard hat
I would run but I hate the cops
Sirens roaring, guns go pop
And rock ‘n' roll's become hip-hop
You can't be something that you're not
When I go lay my head down
I want a man to stay around
We'll live in this ugly house
Oh well
So wet.
So well.
Yea, so wet.
Oh hell
So wet.
It sucks
You told me baby one more time
Won't make me sit on the lonely ride
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
I'm like a fish out of water stuck in the tree
You don't even wanna talk to me
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
(Chorus)
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he puts me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
Said I got a candle that burns so bright
In my way up every night
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
You don't like a seaman standing around
Feel like I've been shot back and down
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
(Chorus)
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he puts me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
Turn off the trouble like you turn off a light
Went off and let me, it just ain't right
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
I ran at the corner, there is something to see
Brings it out round back where I used to be
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
(Chorus)
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he puts me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
(Chorus)
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he puts me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well it's over
I know I thought I can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
It's over
I know I thought I can't let go
Can't let go
Lonelier tonight than a sinking stone
I can hardly breath
I am drowning in the dark
wrong is never right still I'm breaking bones
& every part of me
I hear the pounding of my heart
Mama I can hardly wait
take a little chance on fate
chew it up and spill it out
Finally see what love's about
I'm living loving laughing over you
Tossing Turning Trying over you
Kicking Screaming Crying over you
Wanting Needing Dying to get over you
Mama always said that “you'll know better
When you do grow up”
“all you gotta do is breath”
“Take a little look inside yourself
& see what turns you on
and then you will finally see”
Well mama I can hardly wait
to take a little chance on fate
Kick it up into the sky
Finally see what love feels like
I'm living loving laughing over you
Tossing Turning Trying over you
Kicking Screaming Crying over you
Wanting Needing Dying to get over you
I'm living loving laughing over you
Tossing Turning Trying over you
Kicking Screaming Crying over you
Sunday morning
The world's still sleeping
and the rain keeps falling
like angels weeping
And I feel their tears on my skin
they're trying to tell me something
I listen
Blues and yellows
tap on my window
And I let the night go
with all my shadows
And I feel the sun on my skin
it's trying to tell me something
I listen
Life is calling
Life is calling
Life is calling out my name
Make it matter
Say it louder
Stay alive another day
Life is calling out my name
Perfect houses
with good intentions
with their happy families
had their broken dishes
And I feel the scars on my skin
they're trying to tell me something
so I listen
Life is calling
Life is calling
Life is calling out my name
Make it matter
Say it louder
Stay alive another day
Life is calling out my name
It's a window of the ocean
it's the secrets in the sand
it stopped trying to tell me something
So I'm listening
Life is calling
Life is calling
Life is calling out my name
Make it matter
Say it louder
Stay alive another day
Life is calling
Life is calling
Heaven Look Down
[Beth Hart]
Hell is on the TV, the world I know is screaming
What a way to cut me down
Everyone is shaking, no giving only taking
If I could only Kill that sound
If there is anyone still up there
Won't you take a good look around
Please heaven look down
She will never go to school today
Or know a home or know the way
Doesn't she deserve a chance
Her daddy can't keep from drinking
His heart has drowned and it's sinking
Somethin' come and save that man
If there is anyone still up there
Won't you take a good look around
When will heaven look down
[Chorus:]
Don't Don't Don't Don't leave
Don't Don't Don't Don't leave
I'm begging you God Please
Down on broken knees
If you can hear me now
Take a good look around
Then heaven look down
I don't really know the way-Out
Strike a match and set me on fire
Watch it burn and flames getting higher
You light me up, sweet old desire
So won't you come close to my fire?
(Verse)
Baby, it's cold when you're gone
Don't make me wait, wait too long
Whenever you're near I have all this feeling
You're melting me down
Oh, I'm a believer
(Chorus)
Strike a match and set me on fire
Watch it burn and flames getting higher
You light me up, sweet old desire
So won't you come close to my fire?
(Verse)
Boy you are my symptom delusion
You're melting me down, my resolution
I can escape, can't say I'm trying
You say my name, oh I can't hide it
So come on, shoot down
Don't smoke it down
You can't stop craving til you come around
I can't deny it, I'm right here at home
My fever is waiting
Oh you know I want ya
(Chorus)
Strike a match and set me on fire
Watch it burn and flames getting higher
You light me up, sweet old desire
So won't you come close to my fire?
(Bridge)
Ain't no need to tell me why
Ain't no need to tell me why
Because you know I want you to...
Strike a match and set me on fire
Watch it burn and flames getting higher
You light me up
Oh yea yea yea, You light me up
Oh come on, You light me up!
Springing like a chicken
I wake up in the morning
Cooking me my bacon and bread
Jumping in the shower
In less than half an hour
To make it to the congregation
I'm going, let's shake it down the aisle
Breaking bread with my own flesh in sky
I've got the spirit of God
I've got the spirit of God
Now the preacher going crazy
He swears he's gonna save me
Knocking pebbles out on the floor
My soul stops jumping
I know I'm feeling something
While I'm giving it up to the Lord
We're going, let's shake it down the aisle
Different mother, brother, sister and child
Got the spirit of God
We got the spirit of God
And make it like a slow celebration
Just set your situation right
I know I'm gonna head straight to heaven
Destination straight to the light
I'm going on the highway to heaven
I know. I've got the spirit of God
I've got the spirit of God
My moves already working
I'm broken but I'm burning
Get myself back up on the street
People call me lazy
Yea just a little maybe
Driving everyone that I meet
But I'm going, let's shake it down the aisle
Yea I'll do it with my own flashy style
I've got the spirit of God
I've got the spirit of God
And make it like a slow celebration
Just set your situation right
I know I'm gonna head straight to heaven
Destination straight to the light
I'm going on the highway to heaven
I know. I've got the spirit of God
Got me the spirit of God
Alright, alright now, show em how to do it
I couldn't, I couldn't
That's alright
I've got the spirit of God, I want to thank you Lord
I've got the spirit of God for giving me the word
I've got the spirit of God, I want to thank you Lord
I want to thank you Lord, I've got to thank you Lord
I've got the spirit of God, I want to thank the one
I've got the spirit of God, you take his only son
I've got the spirit of God, I want to thank you Lord
I want to thank you Lord
I'm going on the highway to heaven
Destination straight to the light
I'm going on the highway to heaven
Destination straight to the light
I'm going on the highway to heaven
I've got the spirit of God
I've got the spirit of God
Yea I've got the spirit of God
