I just got off the phone with you
And something wasn't right
I wish that what I said was true
But I messed up tonight
I wish that you could understand the way
I felt when she looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
I just got off the phone with you
Like any other night
I know that I said I loved you too
But she was on my mind
I wish that you could understand the way
I felt when she looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
At this time in my life I have made up my mind
Everyone thinks that I'm crazy
But I cannot deny all these feelings inside
All I can say is that I'm sorry
I'm so sorry
I just got off the phone with you
I didn't even cry
I just did what I had to do
I had to say goodbye
I wish that you could understand the way
I felt when she looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
Understand the way
Looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
Oh oh oh oh
What's your car doing outside his house?
it's 3 o'clock in the morning
When you left me you promised there was no one else
At least that was your story
Well ok, I know I'm not perfect
but what makes him so fucking cool?
He's just another little punk like the rest of them
The kid's just another tool
I guess he's perfect for you
Why are you two alone at his house?
you told me people would be over
Then you lie right to my face
you try to tell me you didn't drive over
Well ok, I know that you're lyin'
I saw your car with my very own eyes
Why would you lie about something so stupid?
unless you've got something to hide
I think you do
I guess he's perfect for you
Don't try to explain, don't try to deny it
I don't wanna hear anymore of your lyin'
I can see the way you talk to him
and that's enough to make me hate the kid
So when you find out that he's a dick don't come crawling back
Why are you always over at his house?
what the hell do you do there?
You're tellin' me that you don't mess around
and I'm telling you that I really don't care
Well ok, go have your fun
go out with Penny if it's what you gotta do
But if you tell him that you love him
Make sure he knows that you told me that too
Yeah, you told me that too
I guess he's perfect for you
Thought I was perfect for you
Those are all very beautiful words
But actions speak louder
In case you haven't heard, I'm all alone
While you're out on the town drinkin' with your friends
You can say all these beautiful things
But they don't mean nothing
No, they don't mean a thing
Gotta back it up
But you keep backing down
Tell me how this ends
If you think it's possible then anything is possible
But I think you're impossible
I hope you prove me wrong
You only call me after you've had a few
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
Same old thing happens every night
You get me going, and then you say goodbye
I'm heated up
And you just leave me there to take care of myself
Don't get mad, don't get all wound up
Just get your act together, or baby give it up
Just let me know if I should hit the road or if you want my help
If you think it's possible then anything is possible
But I think you're impossible
I hope you prove me wrong
You only call me after you've had a few
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You only call me when there's no one around
You only wanna come up when you know I'm going down
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You gotta show me you mean it, if you really mean it
You're talking to me like you mean it, and I don't believe it
You only call me after you've had a few
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You only call me when there's no one around
You only wanna come up when you know I'm going down
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You only call me after you've had a few (oh oh oh)
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do (oh oh oh)
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
I've seen a man cry, I've seen a man shout out
Afraid of losing the woman he loves
I've seen a woman lying to her man flat out
About who she's beddin' with and where she was
I've seen a low fire and tried to figure it out
This fighting isn't going anywhere
I've seen a child's eyes watching his parents freak out
I know they see him but they just don't care
It won't stop if they don't stop yelling
It's not the way of working your problems out
I can't stand being around this yelling
So I'm finding my way out
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I've seen a child's eyes, I've seen him living in doubt
Not ever knowing what it's like to be in love
I've seen his friends try nd just to help him get out
He never told them what the problem really was
I've seen a suicide they couldn't figure it out
He blamed himself because they couldn't get along
I've seen his parents' eyes trying to figure it out
Where did our baby go and what went wrong?
It won't stop if they don't stop yelling
It's not the way of working your problems out
I can't stand being around this yelling
So I'm finding my way out
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Hold it inside until I breakdown
Not gonna try until I breakdown
Say my goodbyes until I breakdown
Baby, come on
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Hold it inside until I breakdown
Well, I'm all dressed up, and i got no place to go.
My friends don't answer when i call them on the phone.
And i got no car, so i am stuck at home.
till someone picks me up, i will be all alone.
and my heart is breaking, and my back is aching.
and i know you wanna be there for me.
i know that you're the ride i need.
but you won't come over,
'cause you think it's over.
you might just be right here.
but i'm all dressed up, and i wanna hit the town.
the lights are shinning as bright when i'm not around.
so, if you get my call and you're in the neighborhood,
stop by and say goodbye and do us both some good.
and my heart is breaking, and my back is aching.
and i know you wanna be there for me.
i know that you're the ride i need.
but you won't come over,
'cause you think it's over.
you might just be right here.
but i'm all dressed up.
well, i'm all dressed up, and i have no place to go.
my friends don't answer when i call them on the phone.
and i got no car, so i guess i'm stuck at home.
till someone picks me up, i will be all alone.
and my heart is breaking, and my back is aching.
and my hands are shaking, this is my life in the making.
and i know you wanna be there for me.
i know that you're the ride i need.
but you won't come over,
'cause you think it's over.
you might just be right here.
and i know you wanna be there for me.
you know that you're the ride i need.
but you won't come over,
because you think it's over.
you might just be right here.
but i'm all dressed up.
Nothing's going on but I don't care
Leave me here, don't take me anywhere
Why should I get up when I've got nothing to do
Just another lazy day afternoon
Beautiful day outside but I don't care
Everything I need, I got right here
Why should I go out, why should I even move
Just another lazy day afternoon
Afternoon, when everybody's working
I'd rather be a jerk and lay around
Afternoon, this day is just too perfect
Just another lazy day afternoon
Nothing's going on but I don't care
Leave me here, don't take me anywhere
Why should I get up when I've got nothing to do
Just another lazy day afternoon
Just another lazy day afternoon
Afternoon, when everybody's working
I'd rather be a jerk and lay around
Afternoon, this day is just too perfect
Just another lazy day afternoon
Beautiful day outside but I don't care
Everything I need, I got right here
Why should I go out, why should I even move
What if nobody likes me
What if I don’t succeed
What if I give it all that I got and I still don’t got what they need
What if I don’t get anywhere at all
Would I consider myself a failure
Would I be that small
What if she doesn’t like me
What if I’m not her type
What if all the girls that ever like me are not the kind of girls that I like
What if I meet the right one and screw it up
Would I consider myself a failure
Would I give up
Chorus:
I’m gonna keep shinin denied just makes me want it more
I’ll keep shinin each time push harder than before
I can’t live my life always worried about what if
Cause what if I die tomorrow then I never even lived
What if they don’t like me
What if they think I’m a joke
What if they act nice to my face
But they hate me and I don’t even know
What if they end up stabbin me in the back
Would I consider myself a failure or would I fight back
Chorus (1X)
What if nobody likes me
What if I don’t succeed
What if I give it all that I got and it’s not good enough till I bleed
What if I don’t get anywhere at all
Would I consider myself a failure
Would I be that small
NO!!
Chorus (2X)
Tell me what's wrong
tell me what's right
tell me how you want me to do it tonight
I don't want to sing
I don't want to shout
I just want a feeling that I'm living without
What more do you want
What more do you want
What more do you want
From me
Tell me what you want
tell me what you need
tell me that you only want to get it from me
I know what to say
I know what to do
I know that you're staying
so the jokes on you
What more do you want
What more do you want
What more do you want
From me
(That's what you want, that's right)
Tell me what's wrong
tell me what's right
tell me how you want me to do it tonight
I don't want to sing
I don't want to shout
I just want a feeling that I'm living without
I know what to say
I know what to do
I know that you're staying so the jokes on you
I don't want to wait but tell me it's right
I don't want to wait, cause I've been waiting all night
What more do you want (do you want)
What more do you want (do you want)
What more do you want (do you want)
What more do you want (do you want)
Sometimes, I get so blind that I can't see
Just who I want myself to be,
And when I look deep in your eyes
I see that you've been telling lies
And I don't want to anymore...
No I don't want to anymore...
No I don't want to anymore...
And sometimes I turn around and walk away
When I've got nothing left to say
And all those times I wonder why
Good girls should never make you cry
And I don't want to anymore...
No I don't want to anymore...
No I don't want to anymore...
No I don't want to anymore...
Sometimes you make me feel so good it hurts
Wish I had gotten to you first
You know how hard it is to say
These words that make you run away
And I don't want to anymore...
No I don't want to anymore
No I don't want to anymore...
You call me in the middle of the night
Saying that you just got home
You're lucky I'm even still awake
Awake enough to answer the phone
But I knew it would be you'cause I was hoping that you'd call
Hoping you'd say that you were sorry
But you don't apologize at all
And it's not ok and it's not alright
What have you been doing with those guys all night?
If they're really just friends
Why wouldn't you choose me over them?
Please don't do this again
I try to give you the space you need
But you end up walking all over me
Please don't do this to me
Oh no, please don't do this to me
You call me in the middle of the night
So drunk you're ready to pass out
Tellin' me you had a great time
Except for that hour you blacked out
Now you're surprised that I'm pissed
you think I'm acting all tough
Well I think you're acting like a bitch
And I swear this time I've had enough
Why do you have to push me so hard?
you're pushing me away
I ask, please don't do this to me
but you're doing it anyway
And it's not ok and it's not alright
You can't fool me, so don't even try
And it's not ok and it's not alright
What have you been doing with those guys all night?
look at the boy in the kitty kat shirt,
he might be good looking, but he still can't flirt.
look at the girl in the really tight shirt,
she might be good looking, but her back really hurts.
the boy to the girl, says hello
and asks her if she wants to go the show.
the girl tells the boy, okay it's a date,
now pick me up at seven and don't be late.
well i don't know just whatcha wanna do about it.
been trying hard not to talk about it.
i'd only know what you want to do
at all. at all. at all.
let's talk about it.
the girl gets ready in her best party dress,
she looks at the boy and she seems disinterested.
she says, by the way, who we going to see?
he says, don't you know, its the plain white t's.
(man, i love those guys!)
well i don't know just whatcha wanna do about it.
been trying hard not to talk about it.

well i don't know just whatcha wanna do about it.
been trying hard not to talk about it.
i'd only know what you want to do
at all.

let's talk about it.
Stuck in a moment at ten past nine
Don't know if she's showing
I wish, she would tell me what was on her mind
I can't stand not knowing
Why am I here?
She used to say, I was the love of her life
Lately, she ain't showing
I used to say, "She's gonna make a good wife"
Where is this thing going?
Why am I here? Why am I here?
(Every word)
Every word I write, I can't help losing myself
(With every kiss)
Every kiss goodnight, I can't help losing myself
I can't help losing myself in you
Stuck in a moment that was 10:09
No way she is showing
These games that she plays
Aren't even worth my time
Where is this thing going?
Why am I here?
Why am I here?
(With every word)
Every word I write, I can't help losing myself
(With every kiss)
Every kiss goodnight, I can't help losing myself in you
Well, you don't wanna let me go
But you can't have it both ways, no
What can I do?
'Cause I can't help falling
And I can't stop calling you
What can I do?
(With every word)
Every word I write, I can't help losing myself
(With every kiss)
Every kiss goodnight, I can't help losing myself
(Every time)
Every time we fight, I can't do anything right
(When we say)
When we say goodbye, I can't help losing myself

I can't imagine what it would have been like,
If I'd have died in that car,
later on that night.
But thank God 'cause I'm still right here,
I'm still living the dream
and facing up to my fear.
Well I knew it before,
I even walked through the door,
That things would be just fine.
And I don't wanna think about,
The ways it could be turning out...
I'll never leave this sign.
Come on,
Don't let go,
I can't get through this I know.
We'll stay strong,
And push on,
'Til I can't take it anymore.
My friends 'til the end,
Don't even wanna say goodbye...
I'm feeling lucky just being alive,
I-88 was against me,
But an angel was by my side.
And now I see it all in a different way,
I see the road ahead,
The start of a brand new day.
And I knew it before,
I even walked through the door,
That things would be just fine.
And I don't wanna think about,
The ways it could be turning out.
I'll never leave this sign.
Come on,
Don't let go,
I can't get through this I know.
I'll stay strong,
And push on,
'Til I can't take it anymore.
My friends 'til the end,
Don't ever wanna say goodbye...
And I don't ever wanna die.
Or even come this close....anymore.
Come on,
Don't let go,
I can't get through this I know.
We'll stay strong,
And push on,
'Til I can't take it anymore.
My friends 'til the end,
Don't ever wanna say goodbye...
Lost myself again,
Didn't care,
I was missin',
Said goodbye to friends,
And drove away,
I just don't belong in a town,
Where no one listens,
Even if I'm wrong,
I'll find a way..
Gotta got away from here,
Find a way to disappear,
Say goodbye to everything and everyone I know,
Gotta go and leave this town,
All it does is bring me down,
I just wanna tell my friends no matter where I go,
I'll see them down the road,
Lost myself again,
No one new I was missing,
Said goodbye to dad,
And his new wife..
Stuck around this lawn,
Now sick and tired of wishing,
Even if I'm wrong,
I'll still be right.
Gotta got away from here,
Find a way to disappear,
Say goodbye to everything and everyone I know,
Gotta go and leave this town,
All it does is bring me down,
I just wanna tell my friends no matter where I go,
I'll see them down the road.
I'm sick of dreaming,
I would rather stay up all night,
Live my own life,
Don't worry about me!
Gotta got away from here,
Find a way to disappear,
Say goodbye to everything and everyone I know,
Gotta go and leave this town,
All it does is bring me down,
I just wanna tell my friends no matter where I go,
I'll see them down the road
See 'em down the road,
I'll see 'em down the road,
(Lost myself again, didn't notice I was missin')
I'll seem 'em down the road.
Come on over there’s a bed to lie on
And when life gets colder we both have a shoulder to cry on
Come on over there’s so much to do
And if it gets boring ill smile just knowing I’ve got you
CHORUS:
We can make it all through the night
And maybe it’ll be okay
But if you cant make it over tonight then promise you’ll be by someday
You’ll be by someday…
Come on over there’s a boy that likes you
And where I come from that’s just gotta mean something to you
Come on over cant live forever
If we gotta grow older we might as well do it together
CHORUS

So come on over baby it’ll be okay
Everything you say or do
I am always there for you
Whether you're laughing or you're screaming
No one else could take your place
I will always see your face
When I'm awake and when I am dreaming
Cause I believe there's a place for you and me
In this crazy world
If you'd come running back to me I'll be here waiting
Cause I still believe that I'm not worth saving
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
Come back to me, I'll be here waiting
Cause I'm on my knees and my life's not fading
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
I can't stand to watch you go
Cause in my head deep down I know
I don't wanna live without you
I love the way we stay up late
The way you laugh at your mistakes
I love everything about you
Cause I believe there's a place for you and me
In this crazy world
If you'd come running back to me I'll be here waiting
Cause I still believe that I'm not worth saving
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
Come back to me, I'll be here waiting
Cause I'm on my knees and my life's not fading
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
No, don't want you to go
Can't move on
My heart, and my arms, and my bed girl
Quit messing with my head
Say that you're coming back to stay right here with me
If you'd come running back to me I'll be here waiting
Cause I still believe that I'm not worth saving
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
Come back to me, I'll be here waiting
Cause I'm on my knees and my life's not fading
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
Come back to me
I still believe
If you could see the sad look on my face
You'd be in your car headed back to my place
Come back to me
I'm on my knees
If you could see the sad look on my face
why can't you see?
what you do to me?
and why i can't let you go.
but if you feel
the same as me
then, just let me know.
but if you don't come
you'll never see
that you're part of me.
and if you don't mind.
you can leave me behind,
i'll be back again, eventually.
why cant you see?
what you do to me
that i can't let you go
but if you feel
the same as me
then, just let me know.
but if you don't come
you'll never see
that you're part of me.
and if you don't mind.

If I was a pirate sailing the seas
Would you come and pillage the village with me?
We'll bury the treasure and go down together
If I was a pirate
If I was an outlaw robbin' a bank
Would you be my Bonnie, help me get away?
Would you pull the trigger and blow 'em away?
If I was an outlaw
How bad would I have to be?
How bad?
If I was a vampire roamin' the night
Would you be my prey and put your neck on the line?
Live in the shadows and die in the light?
If I was a vampire
If I was a wanted man on the run
Would you take a fall if we were under the gun?
And drop down beside me in the nooses they've hung?
If I was a wanted man on the run
How bad would I have to be?
How bad?
If I was the worst man in the world
Would you still be my girl?
The scariest monster you ever seen
Would you still love me?
If I was a killer with blood on my hands
Would you be my alibi and lie on the stand
Swear on your life that I'm an innocent man?
If I was a killer
How bad would I have to be?
How bad?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, aah, aah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, aah, aah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, aah, aah
I remember wishing I was older
always something big around the corner
but as the years go by I'm growing younger
open eyes and head still filled with wonder
....wonder ohhhhh .....ummmmm...ohhhh
[Chorus:]
Pledge of allegiance everybody stand up
this is an Irrational Anthem
we don't care if they don't understand us
this is our Irrational...
Irrational Anthem ohhhhhh ohhhhhh
Let your mind go anywhere it wants to
make your wildest wish and watch it come true
some how somewhere we forgot
cowboys, Indians, astronauts,
all the dreams we could not hold on to
take it back Ohhhh
[Chorus]
There's nothing worse than normal
there's no fun in mundane
as everyone else gets older
I refuse to change
weak or strong, right or wrong
who side are you on
(hey, i'm not here so leave a message)
met her at our last show.
i know, i know.
it's not a good idea.
i just had to take a chance.
i can't, i can't.
defend myself against her pretty face.
i get all flustered,
and my heart begins to race.
by the time the night was all through
i gave up my digits to you.
you don't have to play these waiting games.
you don't have to be afraid of me.
i'm just a guy who's got nothing to do.
if i'm gonna do nothing, i might as well do it with
you.
so, it's been a few days.
okay, okay.
i'm not bullying about it.
but if she doesn't call.
at all, at all.
then, i guess i'll be spending time alone.
just because she wouldn't call me on my phone.
so, i'm hoping by the time the night is through,
my line will be tied up by you.
you've got my cellphone number,
but you haven't called
you've got it for a reason
so, if you're teasing me,
make that call.
you don't have to play these waiting games.
you don't have to be afraid of me.
i'm just a guy who's got nothing to do.
if i'm gonna do nothing, i might as well do it with
you.
you've got my cellphone number,
but you haven't called
you've got it for a reason
so, if you're teasing me,
Oh it's another Rainy Day,
Another excuse for me to hide away,
Fog on the window i write your name,
Oh it's another Rainy day.
Outside a cloud is forming,
In my heart the rain is pouring down, Endlessly
The Sky is Gray Just like me,Just like me.
Oh its another Rainy Day
The sun isn't out to scare the Dark away
Step outside to try to wash you away,
Oh its another rainy day,
Outside a cloud is forming,
In my heart the rain is pouring down, Endlessly
The Sky is Gray Just like me,
All my Tears Flood the streets,
The sky is gray just like me, Just like me.
Well its cold & its gloomy,
What are you doing to me?
is the storm ever breakin
If Only you could make it stop raining
Outside a cloud is forming,
In my heart the rain is pouring down, Endlessly
The Sky is Gray Just like me
All my tears flood the streets
the sky is gray just like me, Just like me.
Oh its another rainy day, Just like me.
I haven't much I could give you in return
If you'd only see my point of view.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
If you would return, I don't know what I would say
But if you forgot it would be okay.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
I'm telling you I can't be true??
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I don't need you.
I try to hide but still you come my way.
I can't ??? stay
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
You and me, we like the same kind of music.
Thats why we make a good you and me.
We got style, baby we know how to use it.
Thats why we make a good you and me.
You know what I'm going to say
Before my mouth even makes a sound,
And thats why we make a good you and me.
You and me, we couldn't stand being normal.
Thats why we make a good you and me.
We both laugh at the most random situations.
Thats the key, baby don't you agree?
You know what I'm going to say
Before my mouth even makes a sound,
And thats why we make a good you and me.
I know from the sound of your breathing,
Exactly what you are feeling.
This is why we make a good you and me.
Make a good you and me.
Make a good you and me.
You and me.
Ah, ah, ah, ah...
You and me, all that we need is each other.
Thats why we make a good you and me.
You know what I'm going to say
Before my mouth even makes a sound,
And thats why we make a good you and me.
I know from the sound of your breathing,
Exactly what you are feeling.
This is why we make a good you and me.
Make a good you and me.
Make a good you and me.
Race cars and spaceships and carnival rides
Ghosts in graveyards that come out at night
These are the wonders of the younger
Daydreams of castles inside crystal balls
While your heroes on posters stand guard on your walls
These are the wonders of the younger
And I wonder why we just leave it all behind
And I wonder how we can all go back right now
Werewolves and vampires are out for the kill
If none of them catch you, the Bogeyman will
These are the wonders of the younger
Walking the plank off an old pirate ship
With a fist full of a gold and her kiss on your lips
These are the wonders of the younger
And I wonder why we just leave it all behind
And I wonder how we can all go back right now
Click your heels
Close your eyes
Make a wish goodbye
Fly away
It's not too late
Change your mind
Numbers and figures take up all my time
How did this much of my life pass me by?
Imagine a place you can always escape to
An island off the coast of nowhere
A new destination of your own creation
Just waiting till you choose to go there
Blue tree tops and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind
Ooh, this is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Welcome to mystery
Imagine a city where everything's pretty
And you, sir, you rule the kingdom
You call the shots, you can do what you want to
Oh, just imagine the freedom
Blue tree tops and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind
Ooh, this is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Welcome to mystery
Blue tree tops and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind, ooh
Imagine a room where the flowers they bloom
Through the cracks in the floor and the ceiling
Just you and the missus and roses and kisses
My, what a wonderful feeling
Ooh, yeah, this is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
This is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Feel no misery, come and visit me
There's no need to argue
You think you're always right
I won't even bother
It's just another fight
You always have it your way, but someday
You'll see it's not about how much you pay
Daddy's gonna buy you the world
'Cause that's what you want
But that won't make you happy, baby
It's only gonna drive you crazy
You'll keep on wanting more and more and more
You won't be satisfied
So just stop, stop playin' around
I'm ready to take you home and make it real again
So just stop, stop playin' around
I'm ready to give you the feeling that you've been dying for
You've been dying for
Don't say the word maybe
'Cause it always means no
But I'm keeping my hopes up
That someday you'll grow up
You always have it your way, but someday
You'll see it's not about how much you pay
Daddy's gonna buy you the world
'Cause that's what you want
But that won't make you happy, baby
It's only gonna drive you crazy
All the things you need in life
They're not for sale
So just stop, stop playin' around
I'm ready to take you home and make it real again
So just stop, stop, stop, stop playin' around
I'm ready to give you the feeling that you've been dying for
Come on
You always have it your way, but someday
You'll see it's not about how much you pay
Daddy's gonna buy you the world
'Cause that's what you want
But that won't make you happy, baby
It's only gonna drive you crazy
'Cause everything you need's right here and it's for free
Everything you need's right here and it's little old me
So just stop, stop playin' around
I'm ready to give you the feeling that you've been dying for
So just stop, stop playin' around
I'm ready to take you home and make it real again
So just stop, stop, stop, stop playin' around stop, stop, stop
I'm ready to give you the feeling that you've been dying for
You've been dying for
You've been dying for
You've been dying for
My head is stuck in the clouds
She begs me to come down
Says "Boy quit foolin' around"
I told her "I love the view from up here
Warm sun and wind in my ear
We'll watch the world from above
As it turns to the rhythm of love"
We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the Music low and swing to the rhythm of love
My heart beats like a drum
A guitar string to the strum
A beautiful song should be sung
She's got blue eyes deep like the sea
That roll back when she's laughing at me
She rises up like the tide
The moment her lips meet mine
We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the Music low and swing to the rhythm of love
When the moon is low
We can dance in slow motion
And all your tears will subside
All your tears will dry
Ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba
Da da-da dum Da da-da dum
ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba
Da da-da dum Da da-da dum
And long after I've gone
You'll still be humming along
And I will keep you in my mind
The way you make love so fine
We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the music low and swing to the rhythm of love
Ohhhhhh
Play the music low and swing to the rhythm of love
I know we just got here
but I think it's time to go
I didn't want to believe it but now I know
you know who just walked in
and she didn't come alone
I can't stand to see this get me home
Take me away
I'm gonna hurt somebody
take me away right now
how could she say
she wanted more you better
take me away right now
I thought she was perfect
she thought I was perfect too
perfect until she found someone new
now I'm stuck here watching her
I can't take this abuse
what does this guy do
that I can't do?
Take me away
I'm gonna hurt somebody
take me away right now
how could she say
she wanted more you better
take me away right now
Whoa!
Take me away
I'm gonna hurt somebody
take me away right now
how could she say
she wanted more you better
take me away right now
Take me away
take me away right now
how could she say
she wanted more you better
take me away right now
When the storm won't end
On your raging sea
When you've all but given up
Float back to me
When the waves come down
And your arms get weak
When you're tired of bailing out
Float back to me
‘Cause I can see sunlight
Through my window
If you open your eyes you'll
Find your way back home
When you're all alone
Stuck in the dark
When you've lost your way in life
I won't be far
When the seasons change
And you fall apart
When the winter chill is near
I won't be far
Baby
Can you hear me?
Come home
Baby
I need you near me
Come home
Well it’s lonely now
In this hotel room
And these sheets are empty, love
What now? Time has come
School's out, life's just begun
And everyone's tellin' me where to go.
I don't know what I should do
I feel trapped by all their rules
Get a chalk, get a lie, go back to school
But when I look up there
I dream up in the sky
I swear someday I'm gonna fly
I know I move it slow
But I wouldn't let anybody tell me so
'Cause they don't know it's where I'm trying to go
I know it'll be ok
'Cause I just wanna think about today
And everything that will come will go my way
But when I look up there
I dream up in the sky
I swear someday I'm gonna fly
I never knew that I could feel this way
I'd never thought that I'd see the day
Where I'll be happy on my own
Whoa
And everything was headed out alright
But they'll play it all through the night
That's not the way it's 'posed to go
What now? The time is right
Won't give up without putting up a fight
'Cause I know it's where I'm trying to go
I know when I make my move
This is a game I can't afford to lose
It's my life that I live the way I choose
But when I look up there
I dream up in the sky
I swear someday I'm gonna fly
I never knew that I could feel this way
I'd never thought that I'd see the day
Where I'll be happy on my own
Whoa
And everything was headed out alright
But they'll play it all through the night
By now you should know everything you say
Can and will be used against you some day
I got the microphone so don’t go too far
Cause I’m gonna tell the whole world how you really are
I don’t even care how you’re gonna feel
Cause I’ve already tried to give you something real
So go ahead and get mad never talk to me again
I don’t even care cause I got my
Revenge
Revenge
Revenge
Got my revenge
One night you’re begging me to stay
The next night you push me away
I don’t need you’re promising to give it up
Is too late cause now I’m giving up
Revenge
Revenge
Got my revenge
By now you should know everything you say
Can and will be used against you some day
I got the microphone so don’t go too far
Cause I’m gonna tell the whole world how you really are
So go ahead and get mad never talk to me again
I don’t even care cause I got my
Revenge
Revenge
Got my revenge
Revenge
Revenge
Revenge
Got my revenge
Revenge
Come on everybody straight to the place around me
And if you have Bacardi (?) what I'm preaching babe
it's harmony (?)
So if you want to be my girl
You better show your face around my world
Woah ooh whoa ooh oh
And show your face to me
Come on all you people come and dance to these sounds
tonight
And if the music overwhelms you then you know it's
gonna be alright
So if you want to be my girl
You better show your face around my world
Woah ooh whoa ooh oh
And show your face to me
So let the funeral(?) know that the word is out
And if you hear what I'm saying then come on and shout
with me
Cause every time I see your smiling face
The place, the bass, the music sets you free
So if you want to be my girl
You better show your face around my world
Woah ooh whoa ooh oh
And show your face to me
Woah ooh whoa ooh oh
And show your face to me
Haven't you ever listened to the tapes?
We're guaranteed a record deal!
She said she saw me on TV
This girl's a legend in the late night scene
And you can see she aimed to please
Cause she just wouldn't take her eyes off me
She made the music come to life
She moved her body like a butcher knife
Chopping up every guy in sight
She was mysterious
I could not resist to save my life
I don't know what this girl was after
She's a natural, natural disaster
She's so sexy
I had to have her
She's a natural, natural disaster
Natural disaster
Now when she left me on the floor
She knew I'd follow her right out that door
She'd always leave you craving more
Just the addiction I've been waiting for
She made the music come to life
Staring me down with those electric eyes
And when she said 'Your place or mine?'
I was delirious, I could not resist to save my life
I don't know what this girl was after
She's a natural, natural disaster
She's so sexy
I had to have her
She's a natural, natural disaster
Natural disaster
All my love
What's your name?
What's your game?
Show me how to play
All night long
Cause I can see you and me going all the way
All night long
And I don't even really care what you're after
All night long
As long as you keep going faster and faster
She said she saw me on TV
This girl's a legend in the late night scene
And you can see she aimed to please
Cause she just wouldn't take her eyes off me
I don't know what this girl was after
She's a natural, natural disaster
She's so sexy
I had to have her
She's a natural, natural disaster
Natural disaster
I don't know what this girl was after
She's a natural, natural disaster
She's so sexy
I had to have her
She's a natural, natural disaster
Oh, oh, oh, oh
There will be no rules tonight
If there were we'd break 'em
Nothing's gonna stop us now
Let's get down to it
Nervous hands and anxious smiles
I can feel you breathing
This is right where we belong
Turn up the music
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the dance for all the lovers
Takin' a chance for one another
Finally it's our time now
These are the times that we'll remember
Breaking the city's heart together
Finally it's our time now, it's our time now
This is more than just romance
It's an endless summer
I can feel the butterflies
Leading me through it
Take my heart, I'll take your hand
As we're falling under
This is an addiction girl
Let's give in to it
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the dance for all the lovers
Takin' a chance for one another
Finally it's our time now
These are the times that we'll remember
Breaking the city's heart together
Finally it's our time now, it's our time now
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, now
It's a dance
Get up, come on brothers
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the dance for all the lovers
Takin' a chance for one another
Finally it's our time now
These are the times that we'll remember
B-b-breaking the city's heart together
Finally it's our time now
It's our time now
(It's our time now)
It's our time now
(It's our time now)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Finally it's our time now
I know a place that we can go to
A place where no one knows you
They won't know who we are
I know a place that we can run to
And do those things we want to
They won't know who we are
Let me take you there
I wanna take you there
I know a place that we've forgotten
A place we won't get caught in
They won't know who we are (they won't know, won't know)
I know a place where we can hide out
And turn our hearts inside out
They won't know who we are
Let me take you there
I wanna take you there
Let me take you there
Take you there
Take you there
Ooohhh
Ooohhh
Ooohhh
Ooohhh
I know a place we'll be together
And stay this young forever
They won't know who we are
Let me take you there
I wanna take you there
Let me take you there
Take you there
Take you there
Ooohhh
We can get away to a better place if you let me take you there
We can go right now cause every second counts
Girl just let me take you there
If you really gotta know, I'm not doing so good
Turned out to hurt more than I thought it would
'Cause I just can't handle losing you again
But the last thing I want is just to be your friend
Been through this same thing time and time again
Let's pretend
Let's pretend everything's fine
Put on our fake smiles and keep wasting our time
Let's pretend we're fine
To go out in style and come home in denial
Let's pretend we're fine
If you really gotta know I'm not doing so good
Hurt me way more than I thought it could
'Cause I just can't handle losing you again
But the last thing I want is just to be your friend
Been through this same thing time and time again
Let's pretend
Let's pretend everything's fine
Put on our fake smiles and keep wasting our time
Let's pretend we're fine
To go out in style and come home in denial
Let's pretend we're fine
Lie to ourselves
(If they don't look closer then they all believe it)
Lie to everyone else
(We can hold hands and we'll know that we're friends)
I can't take anymore of the make believe romance
It's killing my make believe heart
But I'd rather pretend we're together than know we're apart
Let's pretend everything's fine
Put on our fake smiles and keep wasting our time
Let's pretend we're fine
To go out in style and come home in denial
Let's pretend we're fine
(If they don't look close then they all believe it)
Let's pretend we're fine
(We can hold hands and we'll know that we're friends)
You're doin' it again, you know
Sometimes I don't even know who you are
And I don't think you know how bad it hurts
'Cause you don't have to see the scars
If you knew how bad you made me feel
You'd never do a thing like this again
But if it's just a game you're playing
I don't think I'll make it to the end
I don't think I'd last that long
Baby, I'm not that strong
So, if you care about me
You've gotta stop acting this way
Or I'm leavin' today
I'll say goodbye to my favorite face
Don't wanna go but I just can't stay
And be treated, I won't be treated this way
At times I think I love you
And at times I know I've finally found the one
But it's times like this that make me feel
The game of love has only just begun
You know I'd never leave
But making threats to you could be the only way
I love everything about you
[Chorus:]
This is my last call to you
Then I'll give up everything
That we had, that we'd do
And you'll never hear me sing
All these songs about you
So just take this time and think
Just take this time and think
Think about the things that we had
The good times before they went bad
They're not gone just yet
It's all up to you
Think about the dreams in our heads
Layin' awake, holding on in my bed
Why don't you go ahead
And make them come true
I still believe in you
[Chorus]
Think about the plans that we made
Drivin' around while the radio played
They may have gotten delayed
But they're waiting for you
Think about the look in my eyes
Saying I love you the very first time
Focused, not blind
And you said it too
I still believe in you
[Chorus]
Think of everything, think of everything we had
Think of everything, think of everything we haven't had
Like livin' in the Midwest Club
Goin' on our honeymoon in Paris
Makin' out when we're grown up
Listening to the best man speech
From Darren
Think of everything we had
Knowing how it feels to be in love
And kisses that would drive us mad
Going to the Metro
Giving up what we will
Never have again
Will it ever be the the two of us again?
This is my last call to you
Then I'll give up everything
That we had, that we'd do
And you'll never hear me sing
All these songs about you
So just take this time and think
Plans we made but didn't see through
Just take this time and think
Memories, me and you
Just take this time and think
Dreams we had that never came true
Just take this time and think
The look in my eyes lookin' at you
Just take this time and think
Just take this time and think
Hey there Delilah what's it like in New York City
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty, yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you, I swear it's true
Hey there Delilah don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely give this song another listen
Close your eyes, listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl, someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good, we'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there Delilah, I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away, I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall, we'd have it all
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
And we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time that we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This one's for you
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Coming with the quickness
As you hid below the bows
But I don't even feel it anymore
Guess I have a new sound
Can't you see it's cold now
Everywhere we go now
I just wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home
I don't even care for you
You don't seem to care for me
So why do we go on like this?
Can't you see it's killing me
Every time we talk now
We're only lying to ourselves
I just wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home
Coming with the quickness
As you hid below the bows
But I don't even feel it anymore
Guess I have a new sound
Can't you see it's cold now
Everywhere we go now
I just wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna go home now
Just let me go home now
I wanna see my friends now
Just let me be alone now
I just wanna be alive now
Just let me live my life now
Just let me go home now
Just let me go home now
Can't believe the feeling that I felt when I saw you
If I was an artist, onto paper I would draw you
Hang it on a wall with all the masterpieces
‘Cause that's where you belong
Before long the people would be lined up down the streets just to see you
People that will never get the chance to really meet you
They won't see in this gallery just how beautiful you are
You know I want you
I really want you
You don't know how bad I want you
I really do
Can't believe the feeling that I felt when I met you
If I was the pilot of a jet then I would let you
Fly us all the way up far into the stars
‘Cause that's where you belong
Before long the people would be wondering why we've gone celestial
People would be wondering what makes you so special
They won't see in this galaxy just how beautiful you are
You know I want you
I really want you
You don't know how bad I want you
I really do
And when I finally get you
I'll probably want somebody else
I'm just as nervous as you
But last night, I took one look at you
And I got this feeling you're the right one
Now you don't know what to do
But time ticks away and you gotta choose
But you know which feeling is the right one
The right one
This is what it looks like
And this is what it feels like
And this is your heart beating faster, faster
I'll lose my voice if you won't make a choice
I'll lose my head if you go to him again
I'll lose my mind if you won't take me back tonight
Take me back tonight
I hope I'm not pressuring you
That's the last thing I'd ever wanna do
But you know which feeling is the right one
The right one
This is what it looks like
And this is what it feels like
And this is your heart beating faster, faster
I'll lose my voice if you won't make a choice
I'll lose my head if you go to him again
I'll lose my mind if you won't take me back tonight
Take me back tonight, take me back tonight
I can't stand this
I can't just watch you get hurt
But you know which feeling' is the right one
The right one
This is what it looks like
And this is what it feels like
And this is your heart beating faster, faster
I'll lose my voice if you won't make a choice
I'll lose my head if you go to him again
I'll lose my mind if you won't take me back tonight
Take me back
I'll lose my voice if you won't make a choice
I'll lose my head if you go to him again
I'll lose my mind if you won't take me back tonight
Take me back tonight, take me back tonight
Take me to the big show
Take me anywhere but here
Put me in the front row
Make my problems disappear
Trapeze, high wire
Without a safety net
For the price of admission
I wanna witness life or death
All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh
I wanna make friends with the freaks
I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me
Are you ready to risk it all
And be a human cannonball?
Sharpen up those knives
And throw them at the fool against the wall
We're all against that wall
I wanna make friends with the freaks
I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
Come one, come all to the Cirque Dans La Rue
Check your troubles at the door
You don't need 'em anymore!
Leave reality outside and come along for the ride
But just remember
While you're watching us
Do the things that we do
We're watching you
All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh
All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh
I wanna make friends with the freaks
I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me
Just like me
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me
All the pretty girls get cut in half
Why don't you open up your eyes?
These are more than passing glances
Why don't you say what's on your mind?
'Cause I'm taking all the chances
If I'm not everything you wanted, ohh

Somehow you always seem surprised
That it's not a happy ending, don't you want a happy ending?
If I'm not everything you wanted, ohh
If I'm not everything you need
Then you can walk right out the door
(You can walk right out the door)
And you can walk right out on me
(You can walk right out on me)
But you're never gonna see
Just how good it's gonna be
Until you gimme a chance

And you just say goodbye to me
(You just say goodbye to me)
But I know you're going to stay
And be happy everyday
If you just gimme a chance
Gimme a chance, ohh
All I want to do is spend my life with you
And all I want from you is a chance
So I can prove my love to you
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance
If I'm not everything you wanted, ohh
If I'm not everything you need
Then you can walk right out the door
(You can walk right out the door)
And you can walk right out on me
(You can walk right out on me)
But you're never gonna see
Just how good it's gonna be

My heart was talking to my head
Said "I've loved once. I'll never love again."
And my head at this replied,
"I'll miss her too. She was easy on the eyes."
And now all they do is look around for you
And every night with their lids closed tight
They're lost in dreams, but they'll awake and see
You lying next to me.
My feet could feel it in their soles
We've gone too far, and we'll never make it home.
And these hands, they felt the same
They held her once but they let her slip away.
And now all I do is look around for you
And every night with my eyes closed tight
I'm lost in dreams, but I'll awake and see
You lying next to me.
If there's one thing I've learned, it's how easy the tables turn.
And if there's one thing I know, it's the fine art of letting go.
My heart was talking to my head
Said "I've loved once. I'll never love again."
And now all I do is look around for you
And every night with my eyes closed tight
I'm lost in dreams but I'll awake and see
it's a big bad world
were doing what we can
sometimes we fall on our face
before we even learn to stand
but we get back up
shake off all the dust
and take it step by step
i can fill the whole floor to the cieling
with all the dead wrong choices ive made
and even though we try to learn
from each others mistakes
we'll do it again (doing it again)
we'll do it again my friend (doing it again)
we'll do it again and again
till we eventually can change
the way its always been
it's a big bad dream
following your heart
sometimes the one you
need's the one that tears you apart
so you say goodbye
kiss her one more time
and cry the whole way home
i can fill up the driest river
with all the tears falling off of my face
and even though we try to learn
from each others mistakes
we'll do it again (doing it again)
we'll do it again my friend (doing it again)
we'll do it again and again
till we eventually can change
the way its always been(x2)
just running 'round in circles
tripping over every hurdle
were just trying to do the best that we can
it's a big bad life
all that we can do
is try to make it right
tomorrow something new
so if a big rain cloud
follows you around
dont let it get you down
we'll do it again (doing it again)
we'll do it again my friend (doing it again)
we'll do it again and again
till we eventually can change
the way its always been
(oh) we'll do it again (doing it again)
we'll do it again my friend (doing it again)
we'll do it again and again
till we eventually can change
the way its always been (doing it again)
we do it again and again
till we eventually can change
Verse 1:
It was summer love,
She was like a drug,
Fit me like a glove,
Everything was alright,
Verse 2:
I was James Dean,
She was Billie Jean,
California Queen,
Everything was alright,
Verse 3:
From the back beat,
To the back seat
In the jeep's heat,
Everything was alright,
Pre-Chorus:
Lovers and years have come and gone,
She'll always be my favorite song
She was solid gold,
She was Rock'n'roll
I should have never let her go go go
Chorus:
Kiss me goodbye and I knew it was final,
Got in her daddy's car and she was gone like vinyl,
Her memory pops up when I least expect it,
Gets stuck in my head like a broken record,
Pa pa pa pa pa Broken Record,
P-p-pa pa pa Broken record,
A broke, a broke, a broken record,

She was high fly,
She was low fly,
Burning up July,
Everything was alright,

Left me with a kiss,
I wonder where she is,
And does she ever miss me,
Oh oh oh,

Skip skip through my head,
Skip skip through my head,
1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
Give me more lovin' than I've ever had
Make it all better when I'm feelin' sad
Tell me that I'm special even when I know I'm not
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
Barely gettin' mad, I'm so glad I found you
I love bein' around you
You make it easy, it's as easy as 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
There's only one thing to do
Three words for you I love you
There's only one way to say
Those three words and that's what I'll do, I love you
Give me more lovin' from the very start
Piece me back together when I fall apart
Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
Best that I've had, I'm so glad that I found you
I love bein' around you
You make it easy, it's as easy as 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4

If you could come clean about everything
it would be easy for me to be sorry.
If you could see all the possibilities
we might not still be standing where we started.
Oh, no.
Don't let me go for this,
don't let me go for this.
I might be a fool, but you might be one too.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Two wrongs don't make a right,
but I don't care tonight.
Maybe we're all that we needed
You could say we were just a big mistake.
I think it's worth making,
worth repeating.
I would say good things come to those who wait.
I would say anything if you'd believe it.
Oh, no.
Don't let me go for this,
don't let me go for this.
I might be a fool, but you might be one too.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Two wrongs don't make a right,
but I don't care tonight.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Maybe we're perfectly not meant to be,
Or more alike than we're willing to see.
Maybe we're not meant to not disagree.
Maybe we're crazy, baby.
If you could come clean about everything
it would be easy for me to be sorry.
if you could see all the possibilities
we might not still be standing where we started.
Oh, no.
Don't let me go for this,
don't let me go for this.
I might be a fool, but you might be one too.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Two wrongs don't make a right,
but I don't care tonight.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
I don't care tonight.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
I don't care tonight.
Airplane, airplane
Put me to sleep again
Take me away
Off to a dream
And then I'll fly
So high across the sky
And wake in a new place
Where mistakes of my past are erased
Don't drop me
Don't stop me
Just hold me
So cosy
Airplane, airplane
Don't you go down today
Take me away
Off to a better place
You know just where I'd like to go
Please get me there on time
Don't delay me from losing my mind
Don't drop me
Don't stop me
Just hold me
Airplane, airplane
Don't you go down today
Take me away
Off to a better place
You know just where I'd like to go
Please get me there real soon
I met a girl and it was easy to see
That she was falling hard for me
That girl
She wanted me to know
And by the time the night was ready to end
She grabbed a hold of both my hands
That girl
She wouldn't let me go
And now I'm singing
Do do do you wanna be on top
Or on the
Ba ba bottom don't make me stop
Cause I know oh oh
I'm in la la love with you girl
I can't stop singing
Do do do you wanna spend the night
And wake uh uh up
Under the morning light
Cause I know oh oh
I'm in la la love with you girl
I really thought that she was taking it slow
When she asked me to take her home
That girl
Kept giving me the eye
I said goodnight we traded numbers and stares
But she said "you're not going anywhere"
That girl
She made me come inside
You had your chance
there's no reason to cry about it now
You changed your plans
hope that's still more important to you now
No, I don't wanna talk
You better know that this is all your fault
I hope you know that this is all your fault
You can't look back
all that shit doesn't matter anymore
You're way off track
You better know that this is all your fault
I hope you know that this is all your fault
You better know that this is all your fault
I hope you know that this is all your fault
Why do you think about it?
Why do you sing about it?
Why do you care at all?
Man, I don't know what I can say
it's like she can't appreciate me
And it makes me feel so goddamn small
I try to tell you, but I've got no voice
and you won't listen, so I have no choice
It's time for you to move on without me
Just don't forget that this is all
All your fault
All your fault
You can't come back
things can never be the same as before
Can't have me anymore
You say I'm going nowhere
and that's what makes me keep dreaming
You wish I would just shut up
and that's what makes me keep screaming
You tell me to watch my step
instead, I'm falling out of love
I thought you were all that I had
but without you I've got it all
It's all your fault
All your fault
You better know that this is all your fault
I hope you know that this is all your fault
Why do you think about it?
Why do you sing about it?
Why do you care at all?
Man, I don't know what else to say
it's like she can't appreciate the things
She knows will make me feel so tall
I try to tell you, but I've got no voice
and you won't listen, so I have no choice
It's time for you to move on without me
Just don't forget that this is all your fault
(All your fault)
(All your fault)
(All your fault) Yeah yeah yeah!
I don't know how to make lots of money
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
I can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings
But that don't mean much anyway
I can't give you the house you've been dreaming
If I could I would build it alone
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away
Make us a place of our own
I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on
without you
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight
If somebody tries hurting you
I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on
without you
Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
I've got your loving and you've got my song
I don't know how to make lots of money
I don't know all the right things to do
I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know
Is how to be a good man to you
Until I die that's what I'll do
I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on
without
I will write you a song (I will write you a song)
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
(love is still strong)
I will write you a song
And you know from this song that I just can't go on
without you.
There is a house on Shady Lane
By the old cemetery where the dead remain
This place is haunted, so they say
With my two friends and a flashlight
We waited till midnight
Till we couldn't wait no more
We opened up the door
Did you hear that sound?
Did you hear that sound
Calling from the underground?
I think somebody's down there
We should go right now
We should leave right now
I don't think we're welcome here
And that's when she appeared
I'm scared of this old house
When the lights go out
All the ghosts come out at night
And they dance in the shadows of the moonlight
Don't open that cellar door
You've learned that one before
What goes in don't come out
And that's why I'm so scared of this old house
We tried to run but the door was locked
Our hearts beat louder than a kookoo clock
12:05, this old house came alive
Down at the end of the hallway
Past the cobwebs and bloodstains
In the beam of our flashlights
Was the lady dressed in white
She didn't make a sound
She just stared us down
Floating in her wedding gown
Like she died right at the altar
Shivers down my spine
Have we lost our minds?
Let's just slowly back away
And after us she came
I'm scared of this old house
When the lights go out
All the ghosts come out at night
And they dance in the shadows of the moonlight
Don't open that cellar door
You've learned that one before
What goes in don't come out
And that's why I'm so scared of this old house
Dreaming, dreaming
Everybody stay awake
If you wanna stay alive
Don't go in that house at night
We all ran our separate ways
Down winding halls and secret passageways
I hid downstairs, I thought I could escape
I heard those footsteps behind me
Lord don't let her fine me
Around my neck I felt her hands
I never even had a chance
My body hit the ground
And I never made it out
I'm scared of this old house
Everyone keep out
Beware the lady in white
Who walks these halls at midnight
Don't open that cellar door
She'll haunt you evermore
What goes in don't come out
And now I'm just a ghost in this old house
She still haunts me
I just want you to know
I'm better off alone
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
Aways thought my life would be over
If you ever walk out that door
Move scenes with the two of us older
Left there on the cutting room floor
I never thought that
I would be the last to see
The worst thing you could do
Would be the best thing for me
I just want you to know
I'm better off alone
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
Don't wanna see your face
Won't answer when you call
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
Aways looking over my shoulder
Paranoid that you would be gone
February is cold but you are much colder
Thought I needed you but I was wrong
I just want you to know
I'm better off alone
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
Don't wanna see your face
Won't answer when you call
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
You treated me wrong
I'm happy you're not
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
You treated me wrong
I'm happy you're not
So thank you, thank you
I never thought that
I would be the last to see
The worst thing you could do
Would be the best thing for me
I just want you to know
I'm better off alone
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
Don't wanna see your face
Won't answer when you call
So thank you, thank you
I just want you to know
I'm better off alone
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all
Don't wanna see your face
Won't answer when you call
So thank you, thank you
For nothing at all

Someday we'll want what's better
Someday we'll all live forever

Thought that I was in control
And in my mind you were mine, what did I know?
I didn't listen when they said
That you were fake, manipulating boys to bed
I thought they had you wrong
In the morning you were gone
Everytime I see your face
I can see the games you play
Nobody can break hearts better
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Turns you on
Always getting what you want
Made me believe that we would be together
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
We were over from the start
Intertwined just in time to fall apart (fall apart)
I can't believe I missed the signs
You were cold and they all told me not to try
But I thought they had you wrong
In the morning you were gone
Just vanished from my life
Didn't even say goodbye
Everytime I see your face
I can see the games you play
Nobody can break hearts better
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Turns you on
Always getting what you want
Made me believe that we would be together
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
You pulled all the right strings
Saying all the right things
Now that you've gotten what you wanted you don't want it anymore
Everytime I see your face
I can see the games you play
Nobody can break hearts better
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Turns you on
Always getting what you want
Made me believe that we would be together
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Made me believe that we would be together
You know it tears me up inside
To see the feelings that you hide
Hide inside that empty bottle
I wish, you saw how great you were
I wish, you saw what life was worth
You wouldn't have to hide your problems
And I don't care what you might think
I think, you've had too much to drink
Can't even talk when you're this way
Run away, run away
But that won't make it any better
Run away, run away
And make tomorrow harder to live than today
There's so much out there you could miss
There's so much life out there to live
If you would just believe in yourself
You know, you're better than all of this
You know, you've got so much to give
But you're so afraid to give of yourself
And I don't care what you might think
I think, you've had too much to drink
Can't even talk when you're this way
Run away, run away
But that won't make it any better
Run away, run away
And make tomorrow harder to live than today
There's a bright light shining inside you
It shines out through your eyes
Don't drown it away, don't be afraid, don't hide
Let it shine, oh, oh, let it shine
You say, you're looking for happiness
But when it comes, you run away from it
You tell yourself you don't deserve it
There's not much more that I can do
And now the rest is up to you
Until you love yourself, you'll never change
Run away, run away
But that won't make it any better
Run away, run away
And make tomorrow harder to live than today
Run away, run away
But that won't make it any better
Run away, run away
The stars at night burn so bright
But where do I fit in?
Am I too small to matter at all?
Oh, where do I fit in?
Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in?
The wind comes through, singing the blues
But where do I fit in?
The autumn trees dance with the breeze
But where do I fit in?
Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in?
Wish I may, wish I might
Find some answers here tonight
Tell me, is there something out there?
Is there more than I can see?
I don't know what I believe
Tell me, is there something out there?
Anything out there?
Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in?
Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
I am not a church going man, but father please won't you hear my confession.
There's a situation at hand though I have sinned won't you teach me a lesson.
I deserve nothing less than the worst you can do,
Father please make me more like you.
I've made a serious mistake,
I hope its not too late to fix the heart I'm breaking.
I've made a serious mistake,
I hope its not too late to fix the heart I'm breaking.
I've made a mistake.
I am not a church going man, but I'm in desperate need of forgiveness.
I've lost track of who I really am,
My own mother won't believe that I've did this.
I deserve nothing less than the worst you can do,
Father please make me more like you
I've made a serious mistake,
I hope its not too late to fix the heart I'm breaking.
I've made a serious mistake,
I hope its not too late to fix the heart I'm breaking.
I've made a mistake
ooohh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh
I keep on letting myself down.
Even the rats say they don't want me around.
But every heart will someday break,
Everyone will make mistakes, wanna live with no regrets, walk the fine line between love and sex.
I deserve nothing less than the worst you can do.
Father please make me more like you.
I've made a serious mistake,
I hope its not too late to fix the heart I'm breaking.
I've made a mistake
To fix the heart im breaking
I've made a serious mistake
And I hope its not too late to fix the heart
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I've made a mistake
I wanna live I wanna die
Wanna find a place where I can hide
Wanna think about the world
And how I got to this girl
Wanna laugh I wanna cry
Wanna look right into your eyes
Wanna see everything there is to see in this world
We got a lot to say
We got a lot of time
To say everything that's on our minds
Wanna swim I wanna fly
Wanna be a cloud up in the sky
Wanna watch the sun go down
Wanna know you're always around
Wanna know everything that anyone would ever wanna know
Wanna watch television listen to the radio
We got a lot to say
We got a lot of time
Say everything that's on our minds
Wanna see everything there is to see in this world
I wanna walk around and talk to all the pretty girls
I don't see anything that anyone wants me to see
I just be
We got a lot to say
We got a lot of time
To say everything that's on our minds
We got a lot to say
All we've got is time
Your time has already come and I don't know why.
The last thing that I had heard,
you were doin' just fine.
It seems like just yesterday,
I was laughing with you,
Playing games at Grandma's house,
well you taught me well, didn't you?
I hope I'm just like you
Do they have radios in heaven?
I hope they do
'Cause they're playing my song on the radio
And I'm singing it to you,
I'm singing it to you you you you.
You left before I had a chance to say goodbye,
But that's the way life usually is,
it just passes you by.
But you can't hold on to regrets and you can't look back.
So I'll just be thankful for the times that I had with you.
I hope I'm just like you.
Do they have radios in heaven?
I hope they do.
'Cause they're playing my song on the radio,
And I'm singing it to you,
I'm singing it to you.
If they don't have radios in heaven,
here's what I'll do,
I can bring my guitar when my time is up,
and I'll play it for you,
I'll play it for you you you you.
Tell me can you hear me now?
if not, then I can try to sing real loud.
What's it like up on the other side of the clouds?
I hope I'm just like you.
I hope I turn out to be as good as you.
And do they have radios in heaven?
i hope they do.
'Cause they're playing my song on the radio,
And I'm singing it to you,
I'm singing to you.
If they dont't have radios in heaven,
here's what I'll do,
I can bring my guitar when my time is up,
and I'll play it for you.
I'll play it for you you you you...

I'll play it for you,
radios in heaven,
(radios)
i hope they do,
Sitting on this white bed its not the right bed, cause
its not our bed
All alone in this hotel room, feels like a hell room,
cause its not our room
I try to watch some TV, but its not easy, cause your
not near me
I’m just feeling lonely I wanna go home
So if you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song cause its our
song
Trying to kill all my time all day and night time until
its our time
If I had it my way I’d be on the highway straight to
our driveway
I cant wait until I see you and get to feel you and
kiss the real you
You know I need you, I wanna go home
So if you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song cause its our
song
I close my eyes (I close my eyes)
And there you are
Turn off the light (turn off the light)
And there you are
And in my dreams (and in my dreams)
We dance and sing to each other all night long and this
is our song
I just want to make you happy
So come and grab me and love me madly
I want you so badly… I’m coming home
So if you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song
If you hear me singing this song
I know your out there singing along
Its a love song and its the right song
Its the don’t give up without a fight song
I knew that this was wrong as I
Stood reaching for the bedroom light
But she turned me on
So I turned it off
Every man has got his flaws
His breaking point, his sacred cause
And I had mine
But I crossed that line
Now I could never ask you to
Forgive me for the things I do
But if you ever need me
You know where I'll be
Meet me in California
I'll be there waiting for your call
I'll be there waiting for you
‘Cause you know in California
There's something better for us all
Meet me in California
This night was like a bible verse
With pages torn and missing words
Condemning me
And I'm on my knees
I wish that I could start again
Peel the past like sunburned skin
Right off of me
But it’s not that easy
I don't wanna say goodbye
And I don't wanna make you cry
I just wanna see you smile again
‘Cause everything I used to be
Is waiting over there for me
Friday night's such a beautiful night, where you going?
I didn't mean to blow it
You're upset and I don't know what I said but I'm sorry
Don't you give about me?
Take off your jacket
Don't walk out that door
You and me, we should be
Making a memory whenever we're together, yeah
Look at me, can't you see?
We were meant to be making a memory
Don't pretend, you're not smiling again, let's just leave it
You know I didn't mean it
Don't know why we put up such a fight over nothing
We could still be something
Take off your jacket
Don't walk out that door
There's no need to leave anymore, yeah
You and me, we should be
Making a memory whenever we're together, yeah
Look at me, can't you see?
We were meant to be making a memory
Can't do this myself
No, I need some help, wanted some help
Friday night's such a beautiful night
Now you're staying
You and me, we should be
Making a memory whenever we're together, yeah
Look at me, can't you see?
We were meant to be making a memory
Friday night's such a beautiful night now you're staying
(Making a memory, making a memory)
Don't know why we put up such a fight over nothing
I don't care where you're from
If you're smart or you're dumb
If you wanna be a bad guy or Mr. Right
I don't care what you say
I'mma go my own way
You go yours
And maybe we'll meet up someday
Make it up
(Make it up)
As you go
(As you go)
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
I don't care what you think
I'mma do my own thing
Cut my own hair
Don't care if you like it
Just a matter of taste
And all the time you waste
Will get you there in fashionable time
Make it up
(Make it up)
As you go
(As you go)
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
Better make it up as you go
There's no need for lies
They have begun when your eyes meet the sun
We don't need any roads
Put your feet on the ground
And forget what you know
Don't make it down
Make it up as you go
I can't tell you what's best
I don't know what comes next
All I know is that I don't know anything
All I got is today, and I prefer it that way
Make a plan, but I know it's gonna change
And that's okay
Make it up
(Make it up)
As you go
(As you go)
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
Better make it up as you go
Better make it up as you go
Better make it up as you go
And with my last breath I surrender to your attack.
'Cause I would rather sacrifice my spine
If that would get you off my back.
You're somewhere between the girl of my dreams
And the girl of my nightmares
(Girl of my nightmares).
And it's not fair.
Because I'm nothing but good to you,
And you're nothing but wrong for me.
So how do I get back to the good times?
And how do I see you in a new light?
Because the harder I try, the less we feel right for each other.
How do I get back to the good times?
And with my last breath I'll thank you for choking me
Because I'd rather suffocate than have you breathing down my neck.
Flowers and trees we planted the seeds,
But nothing will grow there.
'Cause we're going nowhere.
Because I'm nothing but good to you,
And you're nothing but wrong for me.
So how do I get back to the good times?
And how do I see you in a new light?
Because the harder I try, the less we feel right for each other.
How do I get back to the good times?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for,
If it ain't you?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for,
If it ain't you?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for,
If it ain't you?
What am I trying for?
What am I crying for?
What am I dying for,
I don't know how to make lots of money,
I got debts that I'm trying to pay,
I can't buy you nice things,
Like big diomand rings,
But that don't mean much anyway.
I can't give you the house you've been dreaming,
If I could I would build it alone,
I'd be out there all day,
Just a hammering away,
To make us a place of our own.
I will write you a song,
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong,
I will write you a song,
And you'll know from the song,
That I just can't go on without you.
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier,
I don't believe in being violent and cruel,
I don't know how to fight,
But I'd draw blood tonight,
If somebody tries hurting you.
I will write you a song,
That' s how you'll know that my love is still strong,
I will write you a song,
And you'll know from the song,
That I just can't go on without you.
Now that it's out on the table
(out on the table)
Both of us knew all along
(Knew all along)
I've got your loving, and you've got my song.
(You've got my song)
I don't know how to make lots of money,
I don't know all the right things to do,
I don't where we'll go,
But the one thing I know,
Is how to be a good man to you,
Until I die that's what I'll do.
I will write you a song,
Thats how you'll know that my love is still strong,
I will write you a song,
And you'll know from the song,
That I just can't go on without.....
I will write you a song
(I will write you a song)
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
(Love is still strong)
I will write you a song,
And you'll know from the song,
That I just can't go on,
Do you wanna hear a story about a girl?
This ain't no fairytale,
21 and she already despises the world,
Never shy, never fair
And her mom didn't care,
And her dad wasn't there,
Unaware that his daughter might slip away.
Do you wanna hear a story about a girl?
She didn't want to know,Oh
But she couldn't say no, Oh
Hollywood love
Hollywood love
Hollywood love you,
If you gave her enough.
Do you wanna hear what happened to our little girl?
The queen she'll never be,
All alone never nobody cares in the world.
Not a loss or tragedy
Every man that she meets,
Pulls her hands to the sheets,
To the streets she just keeps running back again,
You don't wanna know what happened to our little girl.
She didn't want to know,Oh
But she couldn't say no, Oh
Hollywood love
Hollywood love
Hollywood love you,
If you gave her enough.
She don't love you,
She's above you,
She can't cry anymore.
No, she can't cry anymore.
She didn't want to know,Oh
But she couldn't say no, Oh
Hollywood love
Hollywood love
Hollywood love you,
If you gave her enough.
Hollywood love
Hollywood love
Hollywood love you,

Those are all very beautiful words
But actions speak louder
In case you haven't heard, I'm all alone
While you're out on the town drinkin' with your friends
You can say all these beautiful things
But they don't mean nothing
No, they don't mean a thing
Gotta back it up
But you keep backing down
Tell me how this ends
If you think it's possible then anything is possible
But I think you're impossible
I hope you prove me wrong
You only call me after you've had a few
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
Same old thing happens every night
You get me going, and then you say goodbye
I'm heated up
And you just leave me there to take care of myself
Don't get mad, don't get all wound up
Just get your act together, or baby give it up
Just let me know if I should hit the road or if you want my help
If you think it's possible then anything is possible
But I think you're impossible
I hope you prove me wrong
You only call me after you've had a few
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You only call me when there's no one around
You only wanna come up when you know I'm going down
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You gotta show me you mean it, if you really mean it
You're talking to me like you mean it, and I don't believe it
You only call me after you've had a few
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You only call me when there's no one around
You only wanna come up when you know I'm going down
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Oh, if you really want me you just gotta let me know
You only call me after you've had a few (oh oh oh)
You only want to hang out when you've got nothing to do (oh oh oh)
Don't tell me you love me and act like you don't
Well, I don't mind waitin' 'til you're comfortable with me
But what's it gonna take
To prove that I'm for real?
'Cause you know how I feel about you
You know I can't live without you
I just wanna stay and make it real
'Cause I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know, that I know you love me
Well, I've made up my mind
That I want you to be the one
The one I wanna be with when I'm ninety-two
'Cause I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know, that I know you love me
'Cause I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know, that I know you love me
I just wanna feel you tonight
Makin' sure the moment's just right
I could die just starin' in your eyes
I just wanna feel your heartbeat
Hold you even closer to me
Fall asleep with you right by my side
We'll see fireworks tonight
We'll see fireworks tonight
I've waited all my life
To make this perfect every way
And sharin' it with you
Would make it even more than that
'Cause I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know that I know you love me
'Cause I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know that I know you love me
I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know that I know you love me
I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know that I know you love me
I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know that I know you love me
I know, you know
It can't get much better
Fireworks flyin' whenever we're together
I know, you know that I know you love me
Oh, oh, oh
I saw you with him today
The boy who took my place
You seemed so much happier with me
Maybe that's just the way I want it to be
I heard that you've been asking 'bout me
'Least that's what tears were telling me
I gave you up such a long time ago
But everyday I wonder why I ever let you go
Now it's just another one of those days
Where you may not feel so right
The way you fit into my arms at night
I'll remember that feeling for the rest of my life
But it's just another one of those days
I can't help but feel a little obsessed
About the things you and I never had
I had the world but instead I threw it all away
And now it's just another one of those days
Oh, oh, oh
Does he really give you all that you need?
Does he feel better than me?
I find it hard to believe
Why don't you tell me to believe?
Why did you let me feel?
Is that the way it's got to be?
What's wrong with me?
Why don't you tell me to believe?
Why don't you make him leave?
It's not the way this has to be
But it's just another one of those days
Where you may not feel so right
The way you fit into my arms at night
I'll remember that feeling for the rest of my life
But it's just another one of those days
I can't help but feel a little obsessed
About the things you and I never had
I had the world but instead I threw it all away
And now it's just another one of those days
It's the time of year
When good friends
Are near
Tryin' hard to find
A quiet moment
Sharing love and joy
Children
With their toys
Sadness
Fills my heart
To see you go
[Chorus:]
Christmas
Won't be the same
Without you
(Without you)
Christmas
Won't be the same
If you go
All I need to see
Standing by
My Christmas tree
(Is you)
Christmas
Won't be the same
Without you
I remember
When the times
We used to spend
Walking hand in hand
Until the sun sets
Then came Christmas eve
The wish you gave to me
How I wish
I tried to make you stay
Christmas
Won't be the same
Without you
(Without you)
Christmas
Won't be the same
If you go
All I need to see
Standing by
My Christmas tree
Without you
It's been a long
Long time
I need you
By my side
Hold me tight
And don't let go
Let go
Christmas
Won't be the same
Without you
(Without you)
Christmas
Won't be the same
If you go
All I need to see
Standing by
My Christmas tree
(Is you)
Christmas
Won't be the same
Without you
Christmas
Won't be the same
Without you
(Without you)
Christmas
Won't be the same
If you go
All I need to see
Standing by
My Christmas tree
Without you
Christmas
Won't be the same
Christmas
Won't be the same
Don't go
I can't run, can't turn away now
It's all the same, nothing ever changes
the long days, the ten cent raises
A few bucks in my pocket's gotta go a long way
22, got my whole life ahead of me
but still, lettin' life get the best of me
Gotta stop, and just leave it up to destiny now
I don't know how much more of this I can handle
But I know that good things come to those who wait
I can't run, can't turn away now
Four years, I've been out of high school
forget college, thinking I was so cool
But no regrets, gotta do what you gotta do
My heart, it's in love with the rock 'n' roll
and playing music is all that I really know
You know love, it's the only thing you can't control
Can't stop believing/no matter how long it takes
It might kill me to keep on dreaming
but I'd rather die than throw it away
I don't know how much more of this I can handle
But I know that good things come to those who wait
And better things will come to those who don't give up
So mine should be coming any day
She tries to hide the bruises
She says, it wasn't him
But sometimes he loses his temper
And again he'll come home, look for a fight
But she tells herself it's alright
She hopes someday it's alright
She doesn't tell anybody but everyone can tell
That there's something she's hiding
She hasn't done herself
But she still goes out every night
And she tells herself it's alright
She hopes someday it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She has to make excuses for all of this abuse
And it's sad, the truth is she's scared of what he'll do
If she'd ever walk out of his life
So, she tells herself it's alright
She hopes someday it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She sits and she waits, it's not getting any better
It's never too late but she knows it's now or never
She'll get up the strength to stand up to him tonight
She knows that it's alright, it's alright
She says, today she's leaving, she says she's had enough
Sick of being mistreated, she knows that isn't love
So tonight, she's saying goodbye and she tells herself it's alright
Yeah, she knows she's gonna make it tonight
Yeah, she's finally going on with her life
And she knows that it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She sits and she waits, it's not getting any better
It's never too late but she knows it's now or never
She'll get up the strength to stand up to him tonight
The fire was out
But then the phone rang.
And all of the heat came back again.
As much as I try
You're hard to resist
All that it takes is just one kiss
And I'm putty in your hands
I'm under your spell
You send me spinning
You pull me in close,You throw me away
I keep coming back like a boomerang.
You tell me to go,You beg me to stay.
I keep coming back like a boomerang
Around, around, around and back again.
Around, around, around and back again.
You're treating me like I'm your little toy
You tell me I'm not like other boys.
The next thing I know you toss me aside
You don't even bother with "Goodbye"s.
But when you say, "Hello"...I can't ignore you
You send me spinning.
You pull me in close, You throw me away
I keep coming back like a boomerang.
You tell me to go, You beg me to stay.
I keep coming back like a boomerang
Around, around, around and back again.
Around, around, around and back again
Around, around, around and back again.
Around, around, around and back again.
Boom,Boom,Boom
And now my heart is racing
Boom,Boom,Boom
And after you I'm chasing
Boom,Boom,Boom
You got to catch me when i fall.
You send me spinning
You pull me in close,You throw me away
I keep coming back like a boomerang.
You tell me to go,You beg me to stay.
I keep coming back like a boomerang
Around, around, around and back again.
Around, around, around and back again.
Around, around, around and back again.
Every once in awhile i know
and it probably shows
but every time i look into your eyes
i see a world thats changing more and more
I see world I've never seen before
And i know and i know
when i go to sleep at night
i pull the blankets up tight
i dream of times when i can hold you in my arms
and i will look at you and you at me
and we can be together permanently
and i know and i know
and i know that it must be Audrey,
she's the only one for me
and i know and i know
and i know that i must be Audrey
yeah it must be Audrey
yeah it must be Audrey
she's the only one for me
she's the only one for me
she's the only one for me
I see your face in the frame on my desk
It Meant a lot now it means a lot less
It's just a place for the dust in my room to rest
I see the letters that were written for me
They said you cared and I totally believed
They didn't mention that five months later you'd leave
[Chorus]
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
To make me understand
You could have told me anything
'Cause I don't understand
I see the bracelet you gave me back then
Made it for me so I'd never forget
It must have worked 'cause I haven't forgotten you yet
We'd talk for hours before you'd go down
I see the bed where we used to mess around
That was before you decided not to keep me around
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
To make me understand
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
To make me understand
'Cause I don't understand
You could have told me why you had to go
I try to tell myself just let it go
But I see your face
It's everywhere I go
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
To make me understand
You could have told me anything
You could have told me anything
To make me understand
You could have told me anything
'Cause I don't understand
I'm sittin' here all by myself
just tryin' to think of something to do
Tryin' to think of something, anything
just to keep me from thinking of you
But you know it's not working out
'cause you're all that's on my mind
One thought of you is all it takes
to leave the rest of the world behind
[Chorus]
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn't mean to love me back, but I know you did
I'm sittin' here tryin' to convince myself
that you're not the one for me
But the more I think, the less I believe it
and the more I want you here with me
You know the holidays are coming up
I don't want to spend them alone
Memories of Christmas time with you
will just kill me if I'm on my own
[Chorus]
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn't mean to love me back
I know it's not the smartest thing to do
we just can't seem to get it right
But what I wouldn't give to have one more chance tonight
One more chance tonight
I'm sittin' here tryin' to entertain myself with this old guitar
But with all my inspiration gone it's not getting me very far
I look around my room and everything I see reminds me of you
Oh please, baby won't you take my hand
we've got nothing left to prove
[Chorus]
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn't mean to love me back, but I know you did
And I didn't mean to meet you then
we were just kids
And I didn't mean to give you chills
the way that I kiss
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
Don't say you didn't love me back 'cause you know you did
No, you didn't mean to love me back
unconditional love,
let me tell you something.
i love you just the same,
if not a little more.
so you want me to write,
but let me tell you something.
i won't change my ways,
you better find a better way,
to speak to me,
to talk to me,
to treat me like a human being.
to speak to me,
to talk to me,
to treat me like a human being.
uncontrollable love,
let me tell you something.
if speeds at my control,
you better hang on for your life.
you complain of hungry holes,
it takes me to satsify.
to speak to me,
to talk to me,
to treat me like a human being.
to speak to me,
to talk to me,
come on over,
there's a bed to lie on.
and when life gets colder,
we'll both have a shoulder to cry on.
come on over,
there's so much to do.
and if it gets boring,
i'll smile just knowing i've got you.
we can make it all through the night.
and baby it'll be okay.
but if you can't make it over tonight,
then promise you'll be by someday.
be by someday.
come on over,
there's a boy that likes you.
and where i come from,
that's just gotta mean something to you.
come on over,
we can't live forever.
if we gotta grow older,
we might as well do it together.
we can make it all through the night.
and baby it'll be okay.
but if you can't make it over tonight,
then promise you'll be by someday.
you'll be by someday.
it's just something.
a little bit of loving you could never understand.
and i don't know what i'd do,
if i had to see you in the arms of another man.
if i had it my way,
you'd be here today.
no mistake would shake it, make it, take it out of the way
you can do it baby,
it'll be okay.
come on over,

so come on over baby,
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
I got my head checked by a jumbo jet
It wasn? t easy but nothing is, no
(Woo-hoo)
When I feel heavy metal
(Woo-hoo)
And I? m pins and I? m needles
(Woo-hoo)
Well, I lie and I? m easy all of the time
But I? m never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet you
I got my head done when I was young
It? s not my problem, it? s not my problem
(Woo-hoo)
When I feel heavy metal
(Woo-hoo)
And I? m pins and I? m needles
(Woo-hoo)
Well, I lie and I? m easy all of the time
And I? m never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
there's this precious little girl, i've seen her,
hanging out with all these guys i hate.
what i'd give to score a chance just to meet her,
give her kisses, i'll clean her plate.
every time i go out, i hope to see her.
but when i do, cat got my tongue.
i feel so stupid, why do i feel beneath her?
she's got to know that she's the one.
i can feel it, i believe it.
i just want you to know.
i can see you, i might meet you.
i don't want to go.
now i'm dazed every time that i see her.
she's hanging around with those guys i know.
if she could only see how good i would treat her.
but i'm too afraid, that she'd say no.
she's hanging around with those guys i know.
she's hanging around with those guys i know.
she's hanging around with those guys i know.
i can feel it, i believe it.
i just want you to know.
i can see you, i might need it.
This year has been a good year,
Even Maria agrees.
She swears that in a few years,
she'll be the next big thing.
They don't believe her, but I let her keep dreaming.
This is the season of a lifetime passing you by.
The fat man is singing oh oh oh
The best things are always gone in the blink of an eye
The drummer boys beating oh oh oh oh
This year has been a good year,
I don't think Johnny agrees.
Christine the girl of his dreams,
Decided to cut him free.
He says he's fine, although his heart thinks differently.
This is the season of a lifetime passing you by.
The fat man is singing oh oh oh oh
The best things are always gone in the blink of an eye
The drummer boys beating oh oh oh oh
Next year we'll be better, they always say
Next year the sun will shine our way
This year has been a good year,
that's what their all telling me.
They swear that this is our year
we're going to make it big
I'd like to believe them, so I let them keep dreaming.
This is the season of a lifetime passing you by.
The fat man is singing oh oh oh oh
The best things are always gone in the blink of an eye
The drummer boys beating oh oh oh oh
wake up in the morning
long way from home
alarm clock is a warning
im still alone
set up for a letdown
opened my eyes
new name for the same town
it's no suprise
its another rough day alright
but i cant wait til tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
i cant wait til tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
wake up in the morning
another day
grey skies bring the storm in
things never change
stare out of the window
through tired eyes
so hard just to let go
it's no suprise
that its another rough day alright
but i cant wait til tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
i cant wait til tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
tonight i'll get up on that stage
and all my problems seem to go away
tonight i'll get up in those lights
and i will sing my best for you tonight
No i cant wait til tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
i cant wait til tonght, tonight, tonight, tonight
It's just another old Sunday
A few more hours 'til it's Monday
The weekend's almost over
I feel myself gettin' older
It's becomin' more and more apparent
I'm turnin' out like my parents
I hate goin' to bed early
But I gotta go work for a man
Who doesn't know my name
Makes me wear a uniform
So everybody looks the same
But I can't be late
I've got those credit card bills I gotta pay
Hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
I said, hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
Then finally it's Friday
I'm thinkin' life's goin' my way
But there's nothing to do
Guess I'll hang out with my friends
And I know
We'll end up at a show
Where they'll drink away
The dreams they gave up long ago
But I can't complain
'Cause I've been right there doin' the same
Hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
I said, hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
I said, hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
Someday I'll be happy
Will someone tell me when will that be?
Somewhere I lost track of what's right
And now I'm stuck on the sidelines
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Not gonna take it any longer
It's time to take back control of my life
Someday, I'll have everything
I'll get paid money just to sing
A new car and a big house
A few kids runnin' around
I'm gonna marry my girlfriend
And fall in love all over again
Someday I'll have it all
Hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
I said, hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
I said, hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday
I said, hey, hey, hey
I'm gonna be happy someday, yeah
I'm gonna be happy someday, yeah
Oh please don't go, I need you.
I'll please you, not mislead you
If you would be my only one.
Together we move slowly.
I'll never leave you lonely
If you would be my only one.
If you believe we were meant to be,
Why'd you leave me alone?
If you believe we were meant to be,
Why'd you leave me alone?
What hapened to forever?
I'll try to make things better
If you would be my only one.
Now six days since we've spoken.
I'll fix you when you're broken
If you would be my only one.
If you believe we were meant to be,
Why'd you leave me alone?
If you believe we were meant to be,
Why'd you leave me alone?
If you love me too, can I call you my only one?
If you say no, I won't let go
My only one.
If you believe we were meant to be,
Why'd you leave me alone?
If you believe we were meant to be,
Got nothing to say anymore
There's nothing new
It's all been done before
Not looking to settle the score
So please let me be
Thought I'd be the one you'd adore
I always thought
I would be so much more
Want something that I can't afford
So please let me be
Please let me be
This is the end of a really sad story
But don't feel bad for me
I started out alone
And in the end that's where I'll be
Like the star of a really sad story
You don't live happily
I started out alone
And in the end that's where I'll be
Got nothing to say anymore
Originality went out that door
Not finding what I'm looking for
So please let me be
Please let me be
This is the end of a really sad story
But don't feel bad for me
I started out alone
And in the end that's where I'll be
Like the star of a really sad story
You don't live happily
I started out alone
And in the end that's where I'll be
I'll walk alone
I'll walk alone
Got nothing to say anymore
There's nothing new
It's all been done before
Not looking to settle the score
So please let me be
Thought I'd be the one you'd adore
I always thought
I would be so much more
Now I'm all alone in this war
So please let me be
Please let me be
This is the end of a really sad story
But don't feel bad for me
I started out alone
And in the end that's where I'll be
Like the star of a really sad story
You don't live happily
I started out alone
And in the end that's where I'll be
Some people look at themselves,
With such doubt, Some people
Just take the easy way out.
But I don't want to.
Some people don't care,
Whats wrong or right,
Some people just wanna
Walk through life,
Some people just try to follow the crowd.
But I don't want too.
They'll never know what life is about.
So don't be like them,
Don't take the easy way out,
Don't take the easy way out,
Oh No,
Don't take the easy way.
Some people look at the
World with such doubt
(Don't take the easy way.)
Some people just
Take the easy way out,
But I don't want too.
Some people don't try
To be themselves,
Some people wanna be,
Somebody else,
Some people don't mind keepin'
Their voice down,
But I don't want too.
They'll never know what life is about.
So don't be like them,
Don't take the easy way out,
Don't take the easy way out,
Oh No,
Don't take the easy way.
If you've got a point to make,
Make it,
If you've got something to say,
Say it,
Its your life so whatever you do,
Don't fake it,
Don't fake it.
They'll never know what life is about.
So don't be like them,
Don't be like them.
Don't be like them.
Don't take the easy way out,
Don't take the easy way out,
Oh No,
My heart was talkin' to my head
Said, "I've loved once, I'll never love again"
And my head, at this, replied
"I'll miss her too, she was easy on the eyes"
And now all they do is look around for you
And every night with their lids closed tight
They're lost in dreams but they'll awake and see
You lyin' next to me
My feet could feel it in their soles
We've gone too far and we'll never make it home
And these hands, they felt the same
They held her once but they let her slip away
And now all I do is look around for you
And every night with my eyes closed tight
I'm lost in dreams that I'll awake and see
You lyin' next to me
If there's one thing I've learned
It's how easy the tables turn
And if there's one thing I know
It's the fine art of letting go
My heart was talkin' to my head
Said, "I've loved once, I'll never love again"
And now all I do is look around for you
And every night with my eyes closed tight
I'm lost in dreams that I'll awake and see
She says, I don't take her seriously
And I don't, so I guess I'd have to agree
I didn't mean that
I really mean that
I know, she gets mad at me all the time
But that's fine, I don't let it ruin my night
I didn't mean that
I really mean that
I watch what I say
Say what I should
Something you said I misunderstood
I'll figure it out as soon as I figure it out
I could get there if I would just move
I like what I have and love what I lose
Figure it out as soon as I figure it out
Yeah
She says, one more time and she's out the door
Yeah yeah, haven't I heard that one before?
I didn't mean that
I really mean that
Come on, I wish she would cut me some slack
It's her fault, she's the one who keeps coming back
I didn't mean that
I really mean that
I watch what I say
Say what I should
Something you said I misunderstood
I'll figure it out as soon as I figure it out
I could get there if I would just move
I like what I have and love what I lose
Figure it out as soon as I figure it out
All my days are all the same
I should mind but all my time's spent wasting time away
Watch what I say
Say what I should
Something you said I misunderstood
I'll figure it out as soon as I figure it out
I could get there if I would just move
I like what I have and love what I lose
I'll figure it out as soon as I figure it out
I'll figure it out
Figure it out
I'll figure it out
I just got off the phone with you
And something wasn't right
I wish that what I said was true
But I messed up tonight
I wish that you could understand the way
I felt when she looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
I just got off the phone with you
Like any other night
I know that I said I loved you too
But she was on my mind
I wish that you could understand the way
I felt when she looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
At this time in my life I have made up my mind
Everyone thinks that I'm crazy
But I cannot deny all these feelings inside
All I can say is that I'm sorry
I'm so sorry
I just got off the phone with you
I didn't even cry
I just did what I had to do
I had to say goodbye
I wish that you could understand the way
I felt when she looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
Understand the way
Looked at me today
Oh oh oh oh
Oh when did I start tearin' us apart?
I'm tearin' us apart
Here I am waiting, taking every chance I'm given
Feeling more and more alive with every note I'm singing
I do all I do until I can't go on
I put all I do into the sun
So when the day comes that I don't wake up
I'll float away, full of love, like helium
From heaven I won't worry
'Cause I left behind one hell of a story
Float away, full of love, like helium
From heaven I won't worry
'Cause I left behind one hell of a story
When I walk I walk until my shoes are torn and tattered
For my love I'll fight until my body's bruised and
battered
That's all that matters
I do all I do until I can't go on
I put all I do into the sun
So when the day comes that I don't wake up
I'll float away, full of love, like helium
From heaven I won't worry
'Cause I left behind one hell of a story
Float away, full of love, like helium
From heaven I won't worry
'Cause I left behind one hell of a story
Open your eyes and soak it up
This life ain't long enough
So love all that you can
I'm rising up, I'm rising up
So when the day comes that I don't wake up
I'll float away, full of love, like helium
From heaven I won't worry
'Cause I left behind one hell of a story
Float away, full of love, like helium
From heaven I won't worry
'Cause I left behind one hell of a story
She hit me like a blinding light and I was born
And gravity won't keep my feet down anymore
If you've seen her then you'd understand
An angel in my, the way she moves
She could make your heart beat faster than you knew
She's got a smile that can shake you, vibe that can
break you
Eyes that can bring the heat
But there's just one thing that I haven't told her
I know I love her but I'm tongue tied
I wanna wait until the moment's right
I don't wanna lose her
(There's just one thing that I haven't told her)
Well, I've been holding back so much I'm in reverse
And buying her that drugstore diamond made it worse
Like the silver on her skin stood for something; a
promise
I don't wanna burn out quick if she's the one
Like the fire in between a bullet and the gun
Because she's brighter than Vegas, hotter than Hades
Cool enough to make you freeze
But there's just one thing that I haven't told her
I know I love her but I'm tongue tied
I wanna wait until the moment's right
I don't wanna lose her
(But there's just one thing that I haven't told her)
She's got me higher than a satellite
She makes everything all right
I don't wanna lose her
But there's just one thing that I haven't told her
Do you know what you do to me?
I've been captured, waiting for the rapture
Am I just a fool to believe this is it, this is it?
So tell me that you feel the same
Can we say what we wanna say?
'Cause there's just one thing that I haven't told her
I know I love her but I'm tongue tied
I wanna wait until the moment's right
I don't wanna lose her
(But there's just one thing that I haven't told her)
She's got me higher than a satellite
She makes everything all right
But I don't wanna lose her
(But there's just one thing that I haven't told her)
If I told you I loved you
Would it move you enough
To even act as if you've heard?
If I said I was leavin'
Would you still find a reason
To ignore my every word?
'Cause I'm the one who waits here for you,
I'm the who'll always adore you,
I'm the one who is dying for your cause,
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
If I told you to meet me in the city this evening,
Would you even think to come?
Everyone would be hearing my intentions of prolonging,
Your easy when your numb.
'Cause I'm the one who waits here for you,
I'm the who'll always adore you,
I'm the one who see's right through it all.
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
If I told you,
Would you care?
If I told you,
Would you still never be there?
If I told you,
Would you care?
(Do you care at all?)
If I told you,
Would you still never be there?
If I told you,
I need you,
Would you still not agree to even offer me your hand?
If I said I was dying,
Would you keep on denying my attempts to be your man,
'Cause I'm the one who waits here for you,
I'm the who'll always adore you,
I'm the one who'll catch you when you fall.
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?
Do you care at all?

1, 2, 3, 4

[Tom Higgenson]
I only miss you at midnight
But when that lonely clock strikes
That's when I wish you were here
The angel knows it's not right
But the devil's in my heart tonight
Whispering things in my ear
So I down my cup
And then I hit you up
Saying stupid stuff....
Oh, I should've just gone to bed
I should've never called you
I should've listened to my head
When it said leave it alone
No, a few drinks in
Here I go missing you again
God only knows what I said
I should've just gone to bed
All day long I'm over you
Never really think of you
I keep you out of my head
But some nights when I'm striking out
You're all I can think about
Just gotta have you again
So I down my cup
And then I hit you up
Saying way too much
Oh, I should've just gone to bed
I should've never called you
I should've listened to my head
When it said leave it alone
No, a few drinks in
Here I go missing you again
God only knows what I said
I should've just gone to bed
I should've turned the lights out
I should've called it a night
You should've never picked up my phone call
If you're not sleeping here tonight
I should've just gone to bed
I should've never called you
I should've listened to my head
When it said leave it
I should've just gone to bed
I should've never called you
I should've listened to my head
When it said leave it alone
No, a few drinks in
Here I go missing you again
God only knows what I said
I should've just gone to bed
I should've gone to bed
