Your gone now, i feel fine.
Somebody met you, i feel fine.
What about you, i bet you been cryin.
I bet you been goin around town lyin.
Hey!
Im drivin fast, i feel so fine.
I got prince singing hot thing to me
I know every line.
So i pulled up to the red light
Sittin there in my car.
I looked up to my right
And there you are!
Sat there with some new girl what is this!
Dont panic panic Mutya, dont drive erratic. Hey!
That's who has replaced me? What a diss!
Dont panic panic, dont act to manic manic
Its a sure fire way, to ruin my day
Just as soon as im on top of my life
There you are again. Yeah
But dont react now, you cant go back now
Dont panic panic Mutya just look ahead now.
Out of control
Lets cut to it, my girl for lunch,
I was feeling on top of the world
And i just got a hunch.
You inside, behind my back
Didnt need to turn around
I felt sick at the thought
He laughed aloud
Sat there with some new girl what is this!
Dont panic panic Mutya, dont drive erratic. Hey!
That's who has replaced me? What a diss!
Dont panic panic, dont act to manic manic
Its a sure fire way, to ruin my day
Just as soon as im on top of my life
There you are again.
But dont react now, you cant go back now (no no no)
Dont panic panic Mutya, just look ahead now.
Out of control
Mmmmph.......
Its a sure fire way, to ruin my day
Just as soon as im on top of my life
There you are again.
But dont react now, you cant go back now
I said to the taxi driver:
"Just get me anywhere away from here
'Cause until I'm in a different time zone
I'll still be too near"
He said: "We could go
For as far as you'll pay for
But I'ma tell you this for free
If you're searching for salvation
You won't find it with me"
This is a song
For anyone the world came crushing down on
This is a song
If you suffer in silence and still stay strong
This is a song
If you don't wanna deal with real life no more
This is a song
You can take it any way you want to
It may not be much
But it's my song
I said:
"We need to stop the car, pull over
'Cause I really need to get some air"
We pulled up in the middle of nowhere
Taxi driver turned around and said:
"Young lady, it sounds like you need Jesus"
I said: "Well he's welcome to help us out
And I know he made a blind man see but
Can he do it the other way round?"
This is a song
For anyone the world came crushing down on
This is a song
If you suffer in silence and still stay strong
This is a song
If you don't wanna deal with real life no more
This is a song
You can take it any way you want to
It may not be much
But it's my song
And it's just a song
And I know it really won't change nothing at all
How weakly heroes fall
And it's all my fault
'Cause my head was somewhere else
Now I blame it on myself
Could have been there, should of helped
This is a song
For anyone the world came crushing down on
This is a song
If you suffer in silence and still stay strong
This is a song
If you don't wanna deal with real life no more
This is a song
You can take it any way you want to
It may not be much
But it's my song
This is a song
For anyone the world came crushing down on
This is a song
If you suffer in silence and still stay strong
This is a song
If you don't wanna deal with real life no more
This is a song
You can take it any way you want to
It may not be much
Woke up too early this morning
Shaken by a dream I had when I was in danger of losin' you
And I made up my mind
I was gonna tell you when you opened your eyes I thought it through
Wanna be someone
Better than the one who wasn't there when you needed her
Someone who
Wants you, needs you, someone who'd never leave you
My almost was not enough
Never sacrificed too much
I'm ready to give
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
I'm willing as I'll ever be
Do anything, just watch me
I love you, I admit
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
(Moooore)
'Cause I was so busy driving
I didn't see the road ahead or where I was going, ignored the signs
Why didn't somebody tell me
The one that I was looking for was there all the time - I was blind
It took a bad dream to show me
Without you there how it would be I realized
I want you, I need you
And baby I'll never leave you
My almost was not enough
Never sacrificed too much
I'm ready to give
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
I'm willing as I'll ever be
Do anything, just watch me
I love you, I admit
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
When you wake up
I'll be different
I don't know how I'm gonna find the right words to say
I'll have a whole lot more to give than I did yesterday (just a little bit)
(Moooooore)
(just a little bit)
Yesterday
(just a little bit)
My almost was not enough
Never sacrificed too much
I'm ready to give
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
I'm willing as I'll ever be
Do anything, just watch me
I love you, I admit
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
My almost was not enough
Never sacrificed too much
I'm ready to give
More than just a little bit (just a little bit)
I'm willing as I'll ever be
Do anything, just watch me
I love you, I admit
Strung out
When we started out
It was fun, so cool
Nothing really heavy
Just a little after school
We were chasing dreams
And living for the day
Live was for the taking
It was such a simple game
I don't know when
And I don't know why
Suddenly I lost you
And a part of you had died
You've gone and taking it to far
I don't recognize who you are, you're...
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away
I'm running out of words to say
Is there nothing getting through
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out
Believing that there's nothing wrong
With everything the pain goes on
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away
It's a long way down
When you're flying high
No one's gonna catch you
When you've told too many lies
It's hard for me
I'm not that brave
Please God help me now
While there's something left to say
My premonitions are coming true
Just tell me babe, what you are trying to prove?
You're hurting me, breaking me
You still forsaking me
Why can't you see? You're...
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away
I'm running out of words to say
Is there nothing getting through
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out
Believing that there's nothing wrong
With everything the pain goes on
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away
Oooooh, yeah
You're strung out, baby
Yes you are
Strung out, yeah
Flowers on the grave
I'm calling your name
Ashes in the rain
Uh, flowers on the grave
I'm calling your name, baby
Ashes in the rain
Yeah, yeah
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away
I'm running out of words to say (Words to say, yeah)
Is there nothing getting through
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out
Believing that there's nothing wrong
With everything the pain goes on (The pain goes on)
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away (Yeah, yeah)
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away (Taking our love away)
I'm running out of words to say (Words to say)
Is there nothing getting, baby (Through)
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out (Out)
Believing that there's nothing wrong (There's nothing wrong, no baby)
With everything the pain goes on (Oh, the pain goes on)
Tell me what they gonna say
Don't kiss me, darling
I want you to hear the things I say
I loved you in my way
But you know I'm gonna leave you
The clock was always ticking
And your heart,
Yes I know your heart is always on the run
I hate what I've become
But I'm still gonna leave you
And I don't think you should stay for the night
Baby you know that my flesh is weak
You know I simply
I cannot sleep without you
My heart has simply nowhere to go
Nothing to hold
Those tears you're crying
Time and time again you take me back in baby
You don't have to make it plain
This is not real love
Look at us dancing baby
Let's dance and show them all
(Dance and show them all)
How close we are
The lies have worked so far
So we go on deceiving
But darling don't you know the time
Baby, look at yourself, holding back the tide
Like you've got something else up your sleeve
That's why I've got to leave
And I don't think you should stay here tonight
(Baby don't you know that my flesh is weak, you know)
I simply I cannot sleep without you
But someday I'll have nothing to show
(Nothing to show)
(Nothing to show)
I've nothing to hold
Oh, baby, crying
All those simple things that won't come again
Oh do I have to make it plain
This is not real love
And I said this is not real love
Real love
Baby it don't glisten and shine the way it used to
This is not real love (real love)
Baby think of all the promises I made on the day that I seduced you
Baby don't wait for me like some angel of tragedy
I have to set you free
Darling you should be long gone, oh long gone by now
You should be with someone, someone
Glisten and shine
You promised me
You've gotta face it woman, you ain't ever gonna change me
Where will I go, what do I know
About life without you
You promised me you'd never leave me, no
Has love lost its meaning?
Am I destined not to feel it?
Baby, I have
And I just don't know it when I'm in it
Is it me to blame
I really need to change
This pattern I'm seeing
I don't wanna be in
Why I gotta mess it up
And get it wrong
Like some kind of curse
Oooh
Why do I have to suffer for love
Suffer for love
I've given it everything
Still it ain't happening
I'm sick of it all
What does it want
It's asking too much
I'm a sucker for a suffer for love (yeah)
I wanna be happy
I wanna be laughin'
Just like all the people that I see up in the movies
So I'm gonna take chances
And I'm gonna make the difference
Coz Cupid's got to put me in love
I keep on trying but I don't know how it works
There's no instruction so I keep on getting hurt
Over again, over again, over and over and over again
I keep on trying but I don't know how it works
There's no instruction so I keep on getting hurt
Over again, over again, over and over and over again
Why do I have to suffer for love
Suffer for love
I've given it everything
Still it ain't happening
I'm sick of it all
What does it want
It's asking too much
I'm a s...
Why do I have to suffer for love
Suffer for love
I've given it everything
Still it ain't happening
I'm sick of it all
What does it want
It's asking too much
If I had one chance to
In my life again
I wouldn't make no changes
Now or way back when (yeah)
And if everything turns out
The way I hope it goes
But I cant wait to find out
What it is that God knows
But I don't wanna think about
What's gonna come around for me
I'll just take it day by day
'Cause it's the only way
To be the best that I can be
I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see, when you see what I've got
We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am
And nothing's ever perfect
There's no guarantee
And if I knew the answers
It would put my mind at ease (no)
So I'll just keep on going
The way I've gone so far
And maybe I'll end up
Tryin' to catch a fallin star (yeah)
But I don't wanna think about
What's gonna come around for me
I'll just take it day by day
'Cause it's the only way
To be the best that I can be
I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see, when you see what I've got
We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am
Baby this is who I am
Don't need you to understand
'Cause everything is right where it should be
It wont be long til you know about me,
'Cause I don't give a...
Even when I'm out of love
'Cause everythings just how it should be
And it wont be long till you know about me
I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see, when you see what I've got
We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am
I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see, when you see what I've got
We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl
Mmmmm
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have made me wait at Breakdown Motel
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have left me by myself
You managed to knock me out
But I promise you, babe, I will come round
One day you were near me, but not for long
And the strange has sweet become
We can't hold on to the things we love
So don't hold on
So you can fly to the moon above
To find something new
When you're back in this atmosphere
You can't help being blue, you
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have made me wait at Breakdown Motel
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have let me scare myself
You managed to knock me out
But I promise you, babe, I will come round
So you can go anywhere you want
But it won't lead nowhere
It's always strange when I check out up here
And you're not there
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have made me wait at Breakdown Motel
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have left me by myself
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have made me wait at Breakdown Motel
You shouldn't have made me wait
You shouldn't have let me scare myself
You managed to knock me out
Mmm yeah
Oooooh, yeah
B boy, be my baby (won't you be my baby)
My one and only baby (be my baby now)
B boy, be my baby (be my baby now)
My one and only baby (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
B boy, be my baby (won't you be my baby)
My one and only baby (be my baby now)
B boy, be my baby (be my baby now)
My one and only baby (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
It was winnin' time, you know what they say
Did you think about us, did you miss your baby?
I'ma catch the train, guess I'm headin' your way
You're my number one, that's all, a newborn son
Won't you be my king? (won't you be my king?)
'Cause I know you care, I'll dirty dance for you
And when I'm done I'm gonna do it again
And when it's over I'ma pull you closer
Keep your Nikes on, you know how we do
There's nothing he won't try
We're like two stars in the sky
You are my rainy day, sunshine
It's plain to see
My heat in the cold of Winter
Just so right for me
So won't you please
B boy, be my baby (won't you be my baby)
My one and only baby (be my baby now)
B boy, be my baby (be my baby now)
My one and only baby (Ohhhhh)
Put two in the air if you feel like me
Someone who cares feels so freaky
In demand by all the ladies
He's not for sale, he's being home-delivered to me
So hang up for your trying cards, please (he's my baby)
Love-sick calls, that's what I get
I hear his voice and things get wet
Knows what I want, then he'll fetch
He's my boo and I'm his little pet, his little pet
You never know what he'll do next, he's my baby
My rainy days, my sunshine
Living fantasy
My heat in the cold of Winter
Just so right for me
So won't you please
B boy, be my baby (won't you be my baby)
My one and only baby (be my baby now)
B boy, be my baby (be my baby now)
My one and only baby (Ohhhhh)
B boy, be my baby (will you be my baby?)
My one and only baby (be my baby now)
B boy, be my baby (be my baby now)
If you love me you should let me know
Tomorrow I'm leaving this town and I'm not coming home, oh
If you want me you should let it show
The hour is getting late, don't let me leave alone
No...
'Cause we can see the world together baby
But first you gotta make up your mind
Is it her or is it me?
That you want in your life
I'ma go whichever way the wind blows
'Cause I know there's something out there wonderful
I don't wanna see it all alone
'Cause I'm sure there's so much more
And it's wonderful
I know she loves you, but it's unbeaten
So follow your heart, take my hand and we'll fly like birds (higher)
If we stay here we can never be
Let's go some place far away where's just you and me
'Cause we can see the world together baby
But first you gotta make up your mind
Is it her or me?
That you want in your life
I'ma go whichever way the wind blows
'Cause I know there's something out there wonderful
I don't wanna see it all alone
'Cause I'm sure there's so much more
And it's wonderful
And I know that it's hard
For you how to follow
Just follow
What's in your heart
I'ma go whichever way the wind blows
'Cause I know there's something out there wonderful
I don't wanna see it all alone
'Cause I'm sure there's so much more
And it's wonderful
I'm sitting here with a piece of paper
Says here's my number, won't you call me later
I called you the next day
And that's how we got started
I'm sitting here thinking what we've been through
In front a pile of things reminded me of you
It's weird that so much time hardly takes up any space at all
things I say for us to look at
now our future's lost in the past
gotta put it away, put it away
I don't know how it can fit
'cuz it's all we were, it's all we ever had
memories
sitting all alone in a paper bag
maybe I should get rid off this
but it's all the love
it's all the dreams we had
you and me
sitting on a shelf in a paper bag (sitting, sitting)
The note you wrote when we had our first fly
the car that you bought me
after sharing our first night
I know we had some bad
But we had lots of good times too (good times too)
Some tickets to a concert and a menu
Some pictures from the night
When I lost my queue
It's funny how these things tell the story of our love affair
Can't hold on to us, no longer
If I do I'm going under
Gotta pack it away, pack it away
Oooooooh Oooooh Oooh Oh
I don't know how...oh yeah yeah
Memories...Oh in a paperbag!
Hey-yeah, Oooh
Here's a little question to you
Baby tell me if it's gonna have an answer too
I would like to know if you could tell me boy
What's the deal and how we got up on this joint
Tell me if you wanna be with me tonight
Got a feeling you ain't ready but your heart denies
I'm not surprised
'Cause you've done this once before
Hey-yeah
I don't wanna ever have to ask you
'Cause I know you got another
'Baby, how you doing?', and I ain't gonna bother
It's not my game to deal with, do you watch eachother
There ain't no playing tonight
You see me looking, no way
Turn around unless it's something
To say to me
If you gotta go, just let me know
'Cause I am not your baby
Oooooh
Baby what's the deal tonight
'Cause I know you wanted more than what you say
'Cause I feel in every move that you put on me boy
Don't act like this ain't something that your heart enjoys
But we gotta put a stop on this, boy
'Cause I ain't feeling that I have to share for you no more
I want you, baby
Need you for myself, don't want nobody else
I don't wanna ever have to ask you
'Cause I know you got another
'Baby, how you doing?', and I ain't gonna bother
It's not my game to deal with, do you watch eachother
There ain't no playing tonight
You see me looking, no way
Turn around unless it's something
To say to me
If you gotta go, just let me know
'Cause I am not your baby
You bring me high (so high)
You bring me low
Everything that you want
I know I'll get
No girl can compare
'Cause I've got what you need
And if I'm all this
I'm gonna get...
I don't wanna ever have to ask you
'Cause I know you got another
'Baby, how you doing?', and I ain't gonna bother
It's not my game to deal with, do you watch eachother
There ain't no playing tonight
You see me looking, no way
Turn around unless it's something
To say to me
If you gotta go, just let me know
I wonder what you'll look like
And if you'll make me laugh
What will be your temptations
Will you grow up too fast
What with all the noise around you
Will I teach you how to sing
Will you be one of those kids
Who thinks they know everything
I can see you growing up way too soon
Isn't that just what they said about me too
It's not easy being right all the time
You know someone has to be (someone has to be)
Her spirits can be undermined
Usually that someone turns out to be me
Can feel you in my skin
Feel you deep within
You ain't going nowhere
I ain't being myself
'Cause you're the reason why
I give in every time
I give you everything
(give you everything)
I hope you make the right decisions
Hope that they come easily
I know with all of us around you
We give out our opinions free
So will you stay or will you break out
To make out on your own
Will you need that kind of freedom
When you finally leave home
I can see you growing up way too soon
Isn't that just what they said about me too
It's not easy being right all the time
You know someone has to be (someone has to be)
Her spirits can be undermined
Usually that someone turns out to be me
Can feel you in my skin
Feel you deep within
You ain't going nowhere
I ain't being myself
'Cause you're the reason why
I give in every time
I give you everything
(give you everything)
Ooooh
I can see you growing up way too soon
Isn't that just what they said about me too
It's not easy being right all the time
You know someone has to be (someone has to be)
Her spirits can be undermined
Usually that someone turns out to be me
Can feel you in my skin
Feel you deep within
You ain't going nowhere
I ain't being myself
'Cause you're the reason why
I give in every time
I give you everything
(give you everything)
It's not easy being right all the time
You know someone has to be (someone has to be)
Her spirits can be undermined
Usually that someone turns out to be me
Can feel you in my skin
Feel you deep within
You ain't going nowhere
I ain't been myself
'Cause you're the reason why
I give in every time
I give you everything
She'll come to me in a dream
And I don't even know her name
A pretty mark upon her breast
To signify her from the rest
But her and I are just the same
Building bridges outta fame
She stands upon a dinner plate
And tells me that I'll have to wait
(Oooh, Wait for me)
I know it won't be easy
What a thing
To believe
In a dream
Perhaps I knew her long ago
I wrote her poems at nine years old
But then I did become a man
The letter slipped right through my hands
Practiced all my wit and charm
Had many girls on every arm
I learned the depths of love and hate
But never did learn how to wait
Wait for you
You say it like it's easy to do
What a thing
To believe
In a dream
I hope you know that all my life
I have been searching for a wife
A partner and a confidant
The girl who wants the things I want
A girl who doesn't come along
Cuz she's already where I'm goin'
I stand upon a broken stage
I beg ya darling, please, please wait
Wait for me
I know it won't be easy
What a thing
To believe
I've been lookin' for the king of diamonds
But I guess the queen will do
I've been lookin' for the king of diamonds
'Till the dealer gave me you
You've got everything together
You've got everything I want
You've got sharp and sparklin' pleasure
Bleedin' from the middle of your palm
I've been lookin' for the king of diamonds
You know I got the other three
Spades and clubs, they just ain't shinin'
And my heart knows nothing's free
You've got everything I needed
That's why I'm lovin' you so much
I damn near just messed up and cheated
'Till I feel your woman's touch
I've been lookin' for the king of diamonds
But the queen will work just fine
I've been lookin' for the king of diamonds
I may not have the time
To give you what you need
I may not live the life
That you'd like me to lead
But there's something in your smile
That makes me want to try
And it's warmer in the night
With someone to lay by
I know this aint the song
That you been hoping for
This road is hard and wild
But it brought me to your door
I've just one thing to promise
If your heart allows
I've been a rambling shamble baby
But I'm here now
So take me into your bed
Lay down your pretty head
Hate me after I am gone
Cause I won't be here for very long
Now I've just one thing to offer you
If your heart allows
Wanderer he must travel baby
But I'm here now
I may not know the words
That you would like to hear
I may not believe the truth
That you've been holding fear
But there's something on your table
That I can call it home
You know I never have a dime to gamble
Or a cover of my own
I know this aint the song
That you been hoping for
This road is hard and wild
But it brought me to your door
I've just one thing to promise
If your heart allows
I've been a rambling shamble baby
But I'm here now
So take me into your bed
Lay down your pretty head
Hate me after I am gone
