Two cups of coffee in the morning
Two days till I stop feelin' blue
Two chairs, one empty in the corner
I got too much me and not enough of you
I got too much me and not enough of you
Two thousand miles away I'm boarding
Two crazy people next to me
Two shots of vodka I am pouring
I got too much me and not enough of you
I got too much me and not enough of you
Hold on tight
Hold on tight because the ship is sailin'
One more night till I can lie into my lady
Precious lady
One day we are going to get married
(Married)
One day I'll show you how I do
(I do baby, baby, oh)
One love is all this heart is yearning for
I got too much me and not enough of you
I got too much me and not
Too much me and not
Not enough of
Too much and not enough of
Well anyway
HMMMM
Yeah ....
Yeah ....
I got too much me and not enough
Oh, I got too much me and not enough of you
Baby, baby, baby
I got too much of me and not enough of you
I'm gonna hold you darlin'
Baby I got too much of me
I love you
Gonna hold you darlin'
Love you, love you
One day we are going to get married
Walk Fast
You better walk fast
If you're gonna walk over me
Cause I won't be a part of your plan
If you're gonna make a dog out of me
Talk fast you better talk fast
Hope you got something good to say
All ears pretty momma won't hear
But you gotta play fair today
Cause I don't wanna believe that it's over, it's over
Cause if you want me to love you
You better open up the door
And if you wanted to love me
You wouldn't leave me wanting more
Cause all I wanted was to love you
I wanted to love you
Don't you see me wanting more
Think twice you better think twice
If you're gonna make a fool out of me
Back down you better back down
Don't give me no third degree
Cause I don't want to believe that it's over it's really over, no
Cause if you want me to love you
You better open up the door
And if you wanted to love me
You wouldn't leave me wanting more
Cause all I wanted was to love you
I wanted to love you
Don't you see me wanting more
I never thought it would be easy
If this is it, then please release me, no
Before we let it get too late
Gotta find a better way
Before we let it get too late, little pretty
My pretty little thing
Cause if you want me to love you
You better open up the door
And if you wanted to love me
You wouldn't leave me wanting more
Cause all I wanted was to love you
I wanted to love you
Don't you see me wanting more
Don't you see me wanting more
Don't you see me wanting more
We got to find a better way
Before we let it get too late
Got to find a better way
Got to find a better way
Oh you are a contradiction
My beautiful addiction
The more you get
The less you want
A dead-on prediction
Was I too easy with the truth?
Was I kind when you wanted cruel?
I laid a ray of sunshine down for you to follow
I gave you every ounce of my love, but we lost tomorrow
Was I too good to you?
You were out I brought you in out of the weather
You were happy baby, we were getting better and better
Was I too good to you, baby?
Tell me now was I too good to you?
You are the main attraction
A physical reaction
And yet, the more you need
The less you see
Love is a distraction
Was I too easy with the truth?
Was I kind when you wanted cruel?
I laid a ray of sunshine down for you to follow
I gave you every ounce of my love, but we lost tomorrow
Was I too good to you?
You were out I brought you in out of the weather
You were happy baby, we were getting better and better, Lord
Was I too good to you, baby?
Tell me now was I too good to you?
Should I have held on
Should I have held back
Could I have done so much more than that
You couldn't receive
You wouldn't believe
And now I'm just waiting out the days we're not together
I said waiting out the days
Lay a ray of sunshine down for you to follow
I gave you every ounce of my love, but we lost tomorrow
Was I too good to you?
You were out I brought you in out of the weather
You were happy baby, we were getting better and better
Was I too good to you, baby?
Tell me now was I too good to you?
I lay a ray of sunshine down for you to follow
I gave you every ounce of my love, but we lost tomorrow
Was I too good to you, baby?
Tell me now was I too good to you?
All I know is the same old contradictions follow us wherever we go
You're beautiful, tell me was I too good to you baby?
Tell me now was I too good to you?
You don't know how to feed and protect my love
So open up to where you belong girl
Tell me, was I, was I too good to you?
Tell me I didn't miss anything
Travelin' around in your head
You know my legs are tired
Of runnin' the maze you've planned
Chorus
So, just lie to me baby
Tell me maybe
All the while
You never made me smile
So, just lie to me baby
My mind is hazy
Now you're gone
I'm havin' so much fun
Yeah, yeah, yeah....
You tell me that you're bothered
with the lies that you've been fed
'Cause oh lord one more broken promise
To the search of a new band
But the feeling seems so mutual
Its the fabric of our lives
Timing so unusual
it makes us wanna fight
Take your games elsewhere honey
I'm not feeling right
maybe you'd be better off if you just try
just try, just try...
Chorus
Red lights
Lead to green lights
And the exit of her heart
Our fights lead to long nights
And the wrong way to part
Lady of mine
Give me one more try
Cause I can do better
So much better
Her love's
What I'm made of
They're the boundaries
That we choose
Oh, teach me
Just what you've seen
With the patience
Of your youth
Lady of mine
Give me one more try
Cause I can do better
So much better
Lady of mine
Don't say your goodbyes
Cause I can do better
So much better
You can
Through your weight
My way
You're the best remedy
You're the best medicine that I know
Lady of mine give me one more try
Cause I can do better
So much better
Lady of mine
Don't say your goodbyes
Cause I can do better
So much better, better, better love
Talk to me like I don't get it
Maybe you don't get me
You're a rich girl in momma's high heels
And someday you're gonna see
I got x-ray vision
I'll see right through you
Like crystal and we're standing in this room
And who you are ain't who I am
That's alright with me
What I love about you is you're
The opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?
Cause we're day and night
Baby it's so right
That we do agree
What I love about you is that you are
The opposite of me
You're speaking some shady lingo
That someday I'd love to learn
You're a bad girl in daddy's new wheels
Watching that rubber burn
It's a game little lover
But ain't it fun
Trying to figure out where you're coming from
I'll take my chance
Come on let's dance
It's how it's got to be
They say that opposites attract
Whatcha gonna say bout that?
No? No more excuses
Just relax
What I love about you is you're
The opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?
What I love about you is you're
The opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?
Cause we're day and night
Baby it's so right
That we do agree
What I love about you is that you are
The opposite
Oh no
They say that opposites attract
Whatcha gonna say about that
No more excuses baby
Now look at my eyes and I'll tell you
What's so right now
Sweet, sweet, magenta lips
Whispering another lie
What I wouldn't do for just one kiss
I'd follow her to the edge of life
And I know your shameless heart ain't true
And I know every move you make is cruel
Your shameless heart ain't true
I don't know where to start
There's nothing you won't do
It's tearing me apart
I could ride her curves to the moon
With childlike innocence
Oh, I don't care, I'm being used
I've fallen in her abyss
And I know your shameless heart ain't true
And I know every move you make is cruel
Your shameless heart ain't true
There's nothing more to say
There's nothing left I can do
I just can't keep away
Everyone is searching
Searching for the truth
But all this lonely boy is
Searching for is you
I know your shameless heart ain't true
And I know every move you make is cruel
You're so shameless
You're shameless heart ain't true
I don't know where to start
There's nothing you won't do
You know it's tearing me apart
Shameless heart ain't true
Play it takes me where i wanna go
I love the time we have
A name that no one knows
The feelin' flows the music takes me there
Chorus:
Inside I light the fire
That burns the best
Inside I feel alive
So softly blessed
May I feel the air
Skin still fair
I love the time we have
A claim on broken bones of casted stones
The music takes me there
Chorus
I feel so blind a world so kind
Days are fighting through the light
If only...
We cannot find a world sublime
Things are runnin' thorugh my mind
If only...
I feel so blind a world so kind
Days are fighting through the light
If only...
We cannot find a world sublime
Things are runnin' through my mind
If only...
Chours
Hey Perfect ten
Did you stop to check him out
Hey perfect ten did you leave him any doubt
You know you're on your way
You can feel it in your bones
You know there'll be a day
This will make you feel alone
*CHORUS*
So don't forget the days we wrestled on the phone
Don't forget the way you liked to sing along
Don't forget the way you make me feel at home
At home when I'm alone
Hey perfect ten
Did you find your lovely place
Hey perfect ten
Did they make your lovely face
Reflection hurts your soul
You can feel it in your bones
You know there'll be a day
This will make you feel alone
*CHORUS*
Who hides the key when you're with me
Who spends the days when you're not free
*CHORUS*
When I'm feeling gone
When I need you most
You make me feel at home
She would sit alone by the bank
Always coming home so late
She'd take off all her clothes and jump in
I'd be giving up man if she'd be giving in
Baby let me dry your hair
I got some clothes that you can wear
Over there on the bed
And I'd always forgive her, but the
Mississippi
River never did
She'd sit out on the dock and put her feet in
She was skipping rocks and she was skipping
School again
She stole my only cigarettes, she smoked the
Whole pack one by one, light em up and
Put em to her lips
And I'd always forgive her but the Mississippi
River never did
She was always running away
No matter how hard I tried, she would
Never stay, and I wish that she would run
To me
Like the Mississippi river, is running
Towards the sea,
And now my poor heart is on the mend,
And I'll always be with her, because the
Mississippi river never ends
I'll always be with her because the Mississippi river never ends
I caught your perfect smile
As I watched you sleep
I saw your beautiful soul
When I felt your heart beat
Your body small your spirit deep
What might have been just makes me weep
Lydia
Where have you been?
Dreams of you
Washed up again
It's the perfect time of day
To be thinking of you
The sun's going down
And the sky's still blue
When you're looking down
Do you approve
Cause life downstairs gets hard on you
Lydia
Where have you been?
Dreams of you
Washed up again
Will you be gone forever?
Where do I begin
Your face in the moon
Reminds me
I will see you again
Thunder, hard rain, I'm lonely
I know you're lonely too
Late night, thinking I need you
I know you need me too
So when you get the nerve
Just call and give the word
Cause you're really something baby, hey hey

Cause you're something baby, hey hey
Wanting you, feel so right, feels so nice
Yeah I found you there on my front steps
Mascara eyes and a threadbare dress
Said is it ok if I stay with you for awhile?
You were talking fast and feeling down
So you spent the week, he was out of town
Woke up alone, I should've known you'd be gone
I'm tired of being your other guy
I wanna be more than your good time
But your love is breaking my heart
Come on little pretty, let me out of your dark
Oh isn't it a pity?
In a Cadillac with the backseat torn out
Looking back I should have turned it around
Love is breaking my heart, so let me go little pretty
Oh tell me baby, what's your plan?
Cause I don't really understand
There's got to be a way for me to get to you
Yeah, I got you in when you lost your key
And scored some pills so you could sleep
I went home, woke up alone thinking about you
I'm tired of being your other guy
I wanna be more than your good time
Because your love is breaking my heart
Come on little pretty, let me outta your dark
Oh isn't it a pity?
In a Cadillac with the backseat torn out
Looking back I should have turned it around
Love is breaking my heart
So let me go little pretty
Don't you call me up with you're in need
Don't you baby
Cause I'm in too deep, I can barely breathe
And I'm tired of trying to tell you
That your love is breaking my heart
Come on little pretty
Let me out of your dark
Oh isn't it a pity?
In a Cadillac with the backseat torn out
Looking back I should've turned it around
Now love is breaking my heart
Come on little pretty
Let me out of your dark
Oh isn't it a pity?
In a Cadillac with the backseat torn out
Looking back I should have turned it around
Love is breaking my heart, so let me go little pretty, yeah
So let me go little pretty, yeah
So let me go little pretty, yeah
So let me go little pretty, yeah
So let me go little pretty
Breaking my heart, baby won't you go to sleep?
I'm holdin' on
To pictures on my telephone
And I know that I should let you go
But it's hard to break away.
I ask around
And I wonder what you're doing now
But I hear that you've been going out
A little more these days.
Well, I can't lie that I think from time to time
How you're doing
But don't hang up cause
What I really meant to say is
Everything's wrong, nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find.
So just say the word and I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side...holding on.
Remember when
We were further than you'd ever been
And I think about it now and then;
It takes me to that place.
When I pretend
That I'm better than I've ever been
Well at least that's what I tell my friends
Cause I can't show my face
Well, I can't lie that I think from time to time
How you're doing.
But don't hang up cause
What I really meant to say
Everything's wrong and nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find.
So just say the word and I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side
It's hard enough to believe in something
More than just pretend.
And just because we both know it's over
We could still be friends.
Everything's wrong and nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find.
So just say the word and I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side
And I'll be right there by your side
[repeat]
Some words aren't meant to be spoken
But you gotta say something
Some things aren't meant to be broken
But you gotta break something
Sometimes you don't wanna try
But you gotta try something
Sometimes you don't wanna feel
Don't wanna feel nothing
Sometimes you misunderstand me
Why don't you just listen
Let me out of your shadow
Let me out of your prison
I wish I could make up my mind
So many decisions
I know that I will be fine I will be forgiven
I don't mind singing
You gotta try something
I'll be waiting for the rest of my life
Don't need anyone to save me
I don't mind singing
You gotta try something
Don't wanna feel nothing
Why don't you just listen
Let me out of your prison
Wish I had the words, the words to say
I wish you had the patience anyway, to let it go
I wish I had the words, the words to say
I wish I had the patience anyway, just let it go
To let it go
Isn't it funny how the roads just pass us by
Isn't it crazy how we never get it right
Time is wasted on money and money wasted on lust.
Treat her like a lady and she'll never get enough
Chorus
Cause' its you that I'm runnin to baby
Its you that I'm feelin for lately and
Its like a pain that never goes away
and it always starts today
Cause you are home to me, Cause you are home to me
Cause you are home to me, Cause you are home to me
Isn't it perfect how the memories feel the same
Isn't it amazing how the song remains unchanged
Time is wasted on money and money wasted on lust
Treat her like a lady and She'll never get enough
Chorus
The day you walked into my life
Was like a hurricane inside
I couldn't walk, I couldn't talk
It happened to me
I took you deep inside my world
I made you want to be my girl
You couldn't walk, you couldn't talk
You know it happened to you
Well let me tell you now
Hard times happen
Can you hear fate saying
Told you so, look at you now
Do you really wanna wanna give in, give in, Lord?
This time around
There's no way I can let you down
Cause I'm here and I plan to stay
I've seen the other side
Your light shines brighter than the best
I want you for the rest of my days
Thought I was better off alone
Keep it simple, I've been told
Cut the line, you'll have more time for fooling around
But I was blind to let you go
I came back to let you know
I couldn't walk, I couldn't talk, without my baby by my side
Hard times happen
Can you hear fate saying
Told you so, look at you now
Do you really wanna wanna give in, give in, Lord?
This time around
There's no way I can let you down
Cause I'm here and I plan to stay
I've seen the other side
Your light shines brighter than the best
I want you for the rest of my days
I am no saint
I know you think I could never change
Another hopeless case in Hollywood
But you've saved me from myself
You've conquered me
And I will have nothing less than all of you
Help me momma, it's cold outside
Oh this time around
There's no way I can let you down
Cause I'm here and I plan to stay
Oh I've seen, I've seen the other side
Your light shines brighter than the best
I want you for the rest of my days
I want you for the rest of my days, baby
I want you for the rest of my days, baby
I said I'm sorry
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
There's no way I can let you down
Your light shines brighter than the best
There's no way I can let you down
Your light shines brighter than the best
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry baby
everybody tells me I am wrong
when I know I'm not
something in me moves me to be strong
cuz its all I got
but I don't know what to say
when you ask me everyday
my mind won't let me play
the thought of you
the thought of you
so tell me what you need
I'm getting stronger
if you will help me see
it won't be long now
its time for you to leave and I will
follow you follow you
now its you that tells me I am wrong
when I know I'm not
who bets you don't listen to this song
its all I got
and I don't know what to say
when you ask me everyday
my mind won't let me play
the thought of you
the thought of you
so tell me what you need
I'm getting stronger
if you will help me see
it won't be long now
its time for you to leave and I will
follow you follow you
well isn't it great
how your restless on my mind
singing songs of broken lives
to clear you in our minds
well baby its great how someone let me find
to live around my life
your picture in my mind
your picture in my mind
so tell me what you need
I'm getting stronger
if you will help me see
it won't be long now

Today I'm wrapped up in your arms
Right where I wanna be
The ski is bright this love is wider than the
Open sea
Cause I'm bound to go
And I can't stop this train from moving on ya know
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
I know you've got your problems
Hey now baby I've got mine
We fuss and fight bout who is right
And who is out of line
But keep on falling in right next to me
Baby keep on falling in right next to me
Cause we're bound to grow
And I can't stop my roots from grabbing hold
Ya know
For a love like this it's few and far between
For a love like this it's few and far between
If the tide ceases to provide a current to
Pull us through
I'll crank up the engine
And get my motor spinning back to you
I'm gonna get my motor spinning back to you
Ya know I'm bound to go
And I can't stop this train from movin on you
Know
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
Everyone waits for a knock on the door
Waiting for someone, who knows what it's for
Cause we spend a lot of money
Feeling bad and looking fine
I'll try to sum it up in a few simple lines
Oh darling, life is what you pray for
But love is what you stay for
And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be
But you didn't hear that from me
Everyone says that it's covered in pain
Waiting for someone who will take on the blame
Oh it takes a lot of courage
To know you're not alone
The sooner you stand up, the sooner you'll know
Oh baby, life is what you pray for
But love is what you stay for
And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be
But you didn't hear that from me
When I hear you crying at night
Like the world is on your shoulders
I'll hold you tight
Cause I know a secret or two
And the least I can do is share it with you
Share it with you
Share it baby
Oh, life is what you pray for
Love is what you stay for
And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be
But you didn't hear that from me
Life is what you pray for
You didn't hear that from me
Love is what you stay for
You didn't hear that from me
Life is what you pray for
You didn't hear that from me
You've been bad
You know you've been good
Did you lose your mind, like I knew you would
Did you sing your song
Did you sing it so loud
Did you sing it so everyone can hear in the crowd
Did you lose yourself
Did you lose your health
Did you put my memories on the shelf
Did you lose your place
Did you lose your grace
Just so everyone could see your singing face
Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today
You've been sad
Your misunderstood
Did you find your kind,
Like i knew you would
Did you feel your song
Did you feel it so real
Did you feel it so everyone could see your grand appeal
Did you lose yourself
Did you lose your health
Did you put my memories on the shelf
Did you lose your place
Did you lose your grace
Just so everyone could see your singing face
Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today
Today
If they would let me show
For the time we love
Time will say,
Keep the fun alive
and lead the way to our today
Did you lose yourself
Did you lose your health
Did you put my memories on the shelf
Did you lose your place
Did you lose your grace
Just so everyone could see your singing face
Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today
Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today
Today
So in the meantime
You'll be resting on my mind
For the last time
I will leave myself behind
In the evening
Raise a glass and tell some lies
Make a pass, impress another girl
She's easy on the eyes
She was easy
And so was I
My reflection
In the window when I ride for Chicago
She is on the other side
Take a picture
Write a letter to my love
Well I was almost honest
I was almost honest
Been a long time
Since I lay with you in bed
Conversations, full of words you never said
I got your message
But I didn't hear the ringing bell
I gave into the loneliness
But I didn't give them nothing else
Which direction
Down this highway that I ride to Atlanta
She is on the other side
Take a picture
Write a letter to my love
I was almost honest
Well, I was almost honest
My reflection
In the window when I ride
Could not save us
But I swear to God I tried
Take a picture
Write a letter to my love
I was almost honest
But I was almost honest
Cause I was almost honest
You paint a picture on the wall
Cause you've got a lot to tell me
but you don't think you could say it better oh baby
You're bringing up times I can't recall
And I'm sure they made your point
but I just can't seem to remember yeah
And I know you got the feeling
and I can't say I'm agreeing
with your topic of conversation
So just listen to the reasons
and the hints that I've been giving
to the thoughts of my imagination
(CHORUS)
So come on let me see
I said baby, you're amazing
I want to let you see
You are everything and more to me
I will let you be I will I will
Cause I saw you walking down the hall
and I had a lot to tell you
but I didn't think you could say it better oh baby
You're good at makin me feel so small
and I know you made your point
but I just don't want to remember yeah
and I know you've got the feelin
and I cant say I'm agreein with your topic of conversation
So just listen to the reasons
and the hints that I've been given
to the thoughts of my imagination
CHORUS
Cause I'm dancing around
in your world of play
I'm takin my time to make sure you stay
I would give my life to make it okay yeah
So come on let me see...
Chorus
You find it hard to sleep cos when you close your eyes
You still got her picture hanging on your mind
You wish you didn't need what you just cant have
But there ain't nothing you can do
There's not a second that you don't think about her
But she don't even think one single thought of you
Why does love got to be so unfair
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind
Making you hurt so bad no its just no right
Why does love got to be so unfair
Oh why does love got to be so unfair baby
Its such a sad affair
When you give your heart
And the one you give it to
Just goes and tears it all apart
You wish you didn't care
Didn't care at all
But all you do is care too much
There's not a single night you don't dream about her
But your the very last thing she'll be dreaming of
Why does love got to be so unfair
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind
Making you hurt so bad no its just not right
Why does love got to be so unfair
Ohh its a sad fact its the cold hard truth
Sometimes your gonna learn that love is cruel
Sometimes your gonna find out
Gonna find the one you love
Just don't love you
Why does love got to be so unfair
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind
Making you hurt so bad no its just not right
Why does love ohh why does love got to be so unfair
Why does love got to be so unfair
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind
Making you hurt so bad no its just not right
Just stormed into my life, like a hurricane coming
Spinning around like a devil, from horns to toes
I was so damn comfortable 'til you jumped into my ocean
I may not understand you, but I'm learnin' as I go
I'm just around the corner, child
Everything's changed
I didn't see you comin', but I, I love you anyway
I wanna give you somethin' to take, to take away the pain
I'm just ripples in your ocean, you're my tidal wave
I've given up on yesterdays, and a lone situation
Pushin' down on the pedal, I'm gonna catch your storm
Oh, you're so irresistable with your big imagination
Tie me up, mess around, with me in your arms
I'm just around the corner, child
Everything's changed
I didn't see you comin', but I, I love you anyway
I wanna give you somethin' to take, to take away the pain
I'm just ripples in your ocean, you're my tidal wave
'Cause I want you,
Oh, I gotta have you
It's kinda crazy what you do to me
Oh, I just can't seem to get enough
I'm just around the corner, child
Everything's changed
I didn't see you comin', but I, I love you anyway
I wanna give you somethin' to take, to take away the pain
I'm just ripples in your ocean, you're my tidal wave
I'm just ripples in your ocean, you're my tidal wave
Oh, I'm just swimmin' in your ocean, you're my tidal wave
I could fall in love with you
But it's not my fault
'Cause you are the prettiest thing I've seen
When you're fallen asleep in my arms
Oh my, oh my, oh my
So just stay awake for me
'Cause I can't fall asleep
So just stay awake for me
I'll give you anything
To just stay awake, make love to me
So myabe all you'll ever need
Is right inside these arms
Whole and you're so dam tired and conditional
As you're fallen asleep in the dark
Oh I, oh my, oh my
So just stay awake for me
'Cause I can't fall asleep
So just stay awake for me
I'll give you anything
To just stay awake, make love to me
There's nothing I won't try
To keep your body close to mine
And baby hold on tight
It's a wil open ride
Give me all you got tonight
And stay awake with me, stay awake
Give it all you got
So just stay awake for me
'Cause I can't fall asleep
So just stay awake for me
I'll give you anything
To just stay awake, make love to me
Oh, just stay awake make love to me
Make love to me
Make love to me
Make love to me
My love life is in the city
My girl, oh, she's so damn pretty
I didn't know everywhere we go she's unbelievably sexy
Other guys fantasize about this girl of mine but you know I let em know she's with me
My baby is something (something),
My baby is something good to me,
She be giving me special (special),
She be giving me special company
Oh oh woa woa
Oh oh woa
Moon light loves the shape of her body as shadows dance on the sheets below me
Flip off the radio
We can take it slow and listen to the sounds of our heart beat (heart) beat
My baby is something (something),
My baby is something good to me
She be giving me special (special),
She be giving me special company
Oh oh woa woa woa
Oh oh woa
She got style, she got grace
No need for make up on her face
Came as no surprise to me got a great personality
I try to be tough, can't afford to give up because all of my love just don't seem to be enough
It's a common formality, a contagious technicality
Dman she's so good to me that I find it hard to break the pieces
Please this ain't the way it seems if you could dance in my shoes you'll need special company
My baby is something (something),
My baby is something good to me
She be giving me special (special),
She be giving me special company
Oh oh woa woa woa
Oh oh woa
It's all about the way that you kiss my neck
Early in the morning when we're lying in bed
Last night tossing and turning got your head in a mess
Something about the way that you understand
That sweet, sexy way that you hurt this man
Kissing those lips got me feeling so freaky inside
So if you want to be loved
I got it
And if you want to make love
I can do that too
And if you want to be touched in the right, right way
Baby, flip on the lights so I can see my masterpiece tonight
Sitting by the fire with a glass of wine
That fur coat got you looking so fine
And cheers to you honey
'Cause you look so money tonight
Oh I am crazy about the way
That you shake your thing
Make me want to give you a diamond ring
Let's finish what we started
'Cause, baby, you're a part of my life
So if you want to be loved
I got it
And if you want to make love
I can do that too
And if you want to be touched in the right, right way
Baby, flip on the lights so I can see my masterpiece tonight
More and more each time (baby)
I realize our love's just a crime (though I want it)
You got me bending over backwards just to catch you
On the other side
If you want to be loved
I got it (you know I got it)
And if you want to make love
I can do that too (I can do that too)
And if you want to be touched in the right, right way
Baby, flip on the lights so I can see my masterpiece tonight (flip on the lights)
Flip on the lights so I can see my masterpiece tonight (you are my masterpiece)
Baby, now, flip on the lights so I can see my masterpiece tonight
Somebody stares in my room.
Well, ask him if he'd like to come inside.
People pass by him everyday
He mumbles like he's gone and lost his mind
And he stares at me as if to say,
Lift me up.
(You know you wanna go)
I'm scared.
(You know you wanna go)
Lift me up.
I'm tired of this.
Lift me up
And float among the clouds.
Take of your coat and stay awhile.
Help yourself to each and every thing
To lend an ear don't cost a thing.
[Chorus]
Waiting for my ship to come
Take me far away.
[Chorus]
Justice will be served and deserved
Life is a funny, tiny game of pictures and pretty words
Broken up and trempled down to tiny bits of dust
Like a letter of love or a scar to a sports car
Justice will be served and deserved
You're so crazy, now come back as you're lazy
Take some time to step outside the lines
Oh, where did you go? Hope you don't forget your coat
You could cacth a cold just being alone
Justice will be served and deserved
Justice will be served and deserved
Oh, I got some of your friends, they all make a real big mess
I could probably scream louder if I had a bigger chest
Start of every heartbeat is how hard you hit the drum
But I've never had fun dancing alone
Oh, I've never had fun dancing alone
Justice will be served and deserved
Justice will be served and deserved
Problem with the sunshine, you can see between the lines
Life doesn't always look the way you hope
Here I am on the phone wishing I could shoot the shit
But it appears I really do have to go
Hey man, I really do have to go
Justice will be served and deserved
Justice will be served and deserved
Justice will be served and deserved
Hey Katie,
You really look great tonight
I think about you all the time
Your color up my life
Just maybe (maybe)
You'll let me take you home tonight
I've gotta have you by my side
To wake up with the sunrise
Its hard to drive when your putting on your makeup
Cant stay in the lines
Shaping up my heart for all the love ill be giving to you
I knew it from the start the starring role for my movie was you.
I knew it was you
I'm playing it tough so you cant change your mind
Hey Katie,
About 6 o'clock tonight
Ill be waiting by the curbside
Practicing my lines
Just maybe (maybe)
You could help me hit my mark
And i could try to play the part
Memorizing lines
You could build me a pharaoh
I can be billy Joe
Shaping up my heart for all the love ill be giving to you
I knew it from the start the starring role for my movie was you
I knew it was you
I'm playing it tough so you cant change your mind
Woohah
Making love in the middle of the day time
Sun shines hot on my back
Shaping up my heart for all the love ill be giving to you
I knew it from the start the starring role for my movie was you
I knew it was you
Its gonna take a lot to stop my heart keep pumping for two
Oh i knew it from the start
The starring role for my movie was you
And I'm playing it tough so you cant change your mind
The worst mistake is giving up
Pulling back when you've had too much
Of not knowing where you belong
The one thing I am certain of
Is time will change each one of us
For this you're not on your own
So open your voice and be strong
You are not alone
You are what you believe
You are now alone
You're a part of everything
When life gets you down
Set your soul at ease
You are not alone
You're a part of everything
The cheapest secret is the truth
Until you finally set it lose
Such an unbelievable game
Well if you've got something to say
Let it out
Give us something to talk about
So that you're not on your own
Open your voice and be strong
[chorus]
Don't people tell you that you won't
Amount to nothing
Get out of the way, get out of the way
Do your thing, do your thing, do your thing,
Do you thing, give me your thing
It's a beautiful thing
Get up
[chorus x2]
You're a part of
You're a part of everything
Flipping through the magazines and
Staring at the beauty queens
I wonder if I can live the way they do
Wouldn't it be nice if I could be so recognized
I wouldn't have to wait in line with all of you
What would I want that for?
What would I need that for?
I could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star
Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
How would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?
In the pop game
Living in the pop game
In the pop game
I've gotta admit
I've changed a bit
But what the public wants, the public gets
And my designer jeans
They make my ass look tight
And if I play my cards correct
Well you can guarantee I'll cash the check
Cause I don't wanna live on what I'm making tonight
Break through another door
Find what I'm put here for
So just lend your ears while I sing my song
Cause I think I can take you higher
All our friends are here
Come and sing along
And we all sing
La la la la la la
Come and sing with me
La la la la la la
And you sing with me, we go
La la la la la la
Oh, sing it
La la la la la la
Yeah
I could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star
Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
Now would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?
Well, if you think so go
La la la la la la
I said love
I feel like I'm standing on top of the sun
And even your temperature won't make me run
Being with you makes me feel
So alive
Mesmerized
I realize
That it's in your eyes
Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to be alone
Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to let it go
People ? they say 'you will never find love'
They say 'it's a myth
All you want is that touch'
But I disagree, cause I know I feel
So alive
Mesmerized
I realize
That it's in her eyes
Honey, feel like I'm floating on that ecstasy
Oh, give me something more so I can feel it
So alive
It's in your eyes
I'm mesmerized
Gonna blow your mind
Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to be alone
Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we can never let it go
I feel so high
Oh, my baby she makes me wanna touch the sky
Oh you never know unless you try
Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to be alone
Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we can never let it go
I realize that it's in your eyes
I realize that it's in your eyes
I realize that it's in your eyes
I realize that it's in your eyes
Gonna blow your mind
I'm gonna blow your mind
I wanna blow your mind
Gonna blow your mind
I wanna blow your mind
Gonna blow your mind
I realize that it's in your eyes
I'm a kid with a reputation
For playing hard in every possible direction
She's a girl you don't refuse
She gives the kind of love you never wanna lose
And I I'm running round in circles
My little lady she keeps me on my toes
And I got to got to tell ya now
Fools like me need someone like you
To keep me from doin the things I do
Fools like me needs someone like you
To keep it all together
Just keep it all together
Let's keep it together now
I tried and tried to resist your temptation
I pretended not to hear you conversation
But there you were in your purple velvet shoes
Painting visions of a world I never knew
And now we're dance around in circles
And you don't mind me stepping on your toes
And I got to got to tell you now
Fools like me need someone like you
To keep me from doin the thing that I do
Fools like me need someone like you
To keep it all together
Just keep it together
Let's keep it together now
You've gotta help me, oh, help me keep it all together now
Fools like me need someone like you
To keep me from doing the things that I do
Fools like me need someone like you
To keep it all together
Just keep it all together
Keep it, keep it, keep it all together right now
I'm sick of chasing after things, I'd rather them chase after me
Keeping up is bound to wear me down
There's a million ways to skin a cat, I've put my choices in a hat
Picked a few and threw the bad ones out
I know now
So if you want me you'd better knock me down
Cause I ain't easy and this ain't hallowed ground
I've been thinking about ol' Cain and Able, sitting at a breakfast table
Talking about the way things used to be
Well Able looked at Cain and said all that shit was in your head
I'd like to think that Cain was hard to please
I know now
So if you want me you'd better knock me down
Cause I ain't easy and this ain't hallowed ground
She said no one loves you more than me
I looked at her, she looked at me
I think she's waiting for me to believe
I wish that love was all it took
I'd fall into you if I could
Hoping for a graceful recovery
But I know now
So if you want me, you'd better knock me down
Cause I ain't easy oh, and this ain't hallowed ground
It's hard to say goodbye
When I'm holding out my hands
Holding out my hands for love
That opened my eyes
Filled with tears that never dry
For you the angels cry
Goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love you're
Beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, the stars up above
Will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodnight, my beautiful goodbye
It's hard to comprehend
Our beginning is the end
Of a love that never had
A chance to dance with you
So I choose to take this pain
And wish for more to say than
Goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love you're
Beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, the stars up above
Will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from
The start
Goodnight, my beautiful goodbye
Oh sweet angel of mine
Gone to sail through the night
In m heart you'll always be
I hope that you'll remember me wherever you are
Goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love you're
Beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, stare up above will
Be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodbye, Goodnight
Oh, Goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love
You're beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, the stars up above
Will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodnight, my beautiful goodbye
I'm feeling it
I got a ton a time
You're movin your body
I'm reeling in
I gotcha on my line
You won't swim away this time
Cause you started it
And you seem into it
Don't you dare act surprised
Cause only you know what is on my mind
I wanna see you
I'm leaving on the lights
Don't go act all sweetness
Cause honey that's not right
Come on, you know oh oh
What is on my mind
You know the game
Your wearing it
And you make the rules
I'm breaking ‘em
And it's feeling good
For sure you can't deny
Cause you started it
And you seem into it
Don't you dare act surprised
Cause only you know what is on my mind
I wanna see you
I'm leaving on the lights
Don't go act all sweetness
Cause honey that's not right
Come on, you know oh oh
It's human nature girl
It's how we turn the world
What better way to know that we're alive
Only you know what is on my mind
I wanna see you
So I'm leaving on the lights
Don't go act all sweetness
Cause honey that's not right
Come on, you know oh oh
You know what is on my mind
I wanna see you
So I'm leaving on the lights
Don't go act all sweetness
Cause honey that's not right
Come on, you know oh oh
What is on my mind
I was lost in the words you said
She said when your head starts pounding boy, just go back to bed
She was all
Oooh, she was all I was trying to get away from
3:15 on my broken watch
Went to the kitchen, poured a short glass of scotch
'Cause it was all, oooh it was all
I needed to help me sleep again
And if it ain't there, it's forever gone
There ain't no reason to keep holding on
To this heartache, heartache
I wish you'd never come back to me
Oooh, and this love
I would hold it tight
I would kiss the sweet lips through the longest night
But it ain't all, oooh it ain't always so easy baby
I've grown weary of the way she acts
Always whining, crying and talking back
Oh, why don't you go,
That's why I wrote this song 'cause I couldn't tell you
And if it ain't there, it's forever gone
Ain't no reason to keep holding on
To this heartache, heartache
Oooh, I wish you'd never, ever come back to me
Oh mercy, Lord, take her,
'Cause she's never gone (never gone)
Oh she's never gone (never gone)
Lord, give me some peace, puh-lease
'Cause all I got left is this heartache, heartache, oooh
Now all I (heartache)
Got left is (heartache)
Heartache
Heartache, heartache, whoooa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, here we go on now babe
I said my heartache, heartache
Said my heart is gone
Heartache, heartache, whoooa, I guess I better get, better get outta town
Better get outta town, gonna get out of town (heartache)
This heartache, heartache, mmmmm
Whoa! I wish you never, never, never, never
I wish you never come back to meeeeeeeee.
Highway ride on a cold dark night
And the sign says 20 miles to Georgia
2am coming come again
Been too long and I wanna see my momma
Did she ever think she'd hear me say
After all the years I've been away
I know I'm getting older
Did she ever think she'd see the day
The day her boys had grown and gone away
Does she know she's getting older?
Momma's gonna cook me supper
And Georgia's gonna tuck me in
This town is gonna make me something special
I'm coming home again
Thursday night see the front porch lights
Wooden sign says my house in on the market
It took me 19 years, took 1000 years
Till I realized I don't belong to Georgia
Did she ever think she'd hear me say
After all the years I've been away
I know I'm getting older
Did she ever think she'd see the day
The day her boys had grown and gone away
Does she know she's getting older?
Momma's gonna cook me supper
And Georgia's gonna tuck me in
This town is gonna make me something special
She never saw the world she could never go
Or any foreign shores, she would never go
She deserves so much more
Than she'll ever know
She'll ever know oh
Momma's gonna cook me supper
Georgia's gonna tuck me in
This town is gonna make me something special
I'm coming home, I'm coming home again
I'm coming home, I'm coming home again
I'm coming home, I'm coming home baby
I'm coming home, Georgia's gonna tuck me in
I'm driving down the highway
Checking the signs
Saying 20 miles away from the Georgia state line
Check it to the left, pass it on the right
Gonna make it home it if takes all night
Driving down the highway
Checking the signs
Saying 20 miles away from the Georgia state line
Check it to the left, pass it on the right
Gonna make it home if it takes all night
Standin 'round in a crowded room
your face is here bring me back to you
leaving town slips into my head again
my friends say stay but I wanna go
there's people here that I used to know
to the situation that you put me in
and I can tell myself that I will be gone
you can rest assure that I will be home
cuz I belong to the best of you
and you belong to the things I do
when a song is how I'll remember you
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
you're an old time memory
you're an old time memory
laying back with the headphones on
a pen in hand takes me to the dawn
paper worn to the thoughts of you again
taking light of the time of night
a ballpoint fast full of work in mind
the chorus playing in my head again
cuz I can tell myself that I will be gone
but you can rest assure that I will be home
cuz I belong to the best of you
and you belong to the things I do
when a song is how I'll remember you
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
you're an old time memory
you're an old time memory
well the feelings that remain
and the promises in vain
and the memories are stained
for you, for you
cuz I can tell myself that I will be gone
and you can rest assured that I will be home
cuz I belong to the best of you
and you belong to the things I do
when a song is how I'll remember you
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
you're an old time memory
