Oh, the fire's burning slow
Now, where's that mistletoe
Dear, it's getting kind of hot in here
I need a taste of Christmas cheer
I hope he gets here quick, I need a St. Nick fix
Oooo-eee, I just want him to be all wrapped up for me
Santa's never been this hard to resist
But Santa never used to look like this
He's traded in his reindeer for a limousine
He's wearing purple trousers instead of red and green
This Christmas, I'm wanting something I've never had
'Cause Santa's got a brand new bag (oh, oh)
Now, I've got to, got to find out how
To make him want to settle down
I've got his big fat kiss
Right at the top of my list
So we can build a little candy home
And have a few elves of our own
I want to sneak a peek at my surprise
And see tradition metamorphosize
He's given up the cookies and he's slimming down
He bought a little bungalow in Tinsel Town
This Christmas, I'm wanting something I've never had
'Cause Santa's got a brand new bag (oh yeah)
As he finds his Zen down on the kitchen floor
He lights a fat Cohiba from his humidor
This Christmas, I want something I've never had
'Cause Santa's got a brand new bag
He's got a Rickenbacher and he's bleached his hair
He's rockin' to the rhythm with a Latin flair
This Christmas, I'm wanting something I've never had
'Cause Santa's got a brand new
He's reading Socrates and cooking French cuisine
He's pictured on the front of "Money" magazine
This Christmas, I'm wanting something I've never had
'Cause Santa's got a brand new
To be the first in someone's life
To set the sun and raise the moon
In someone else's eyes
To see heaven just for a day
To hold a moment in your arms
And never let it slip away
To leap off a mountaintop
And feel the rush of love
(Feel the rush of love)
To taste that holy kiss
(Taste that holy kiss)
I could never get enough of this
(Never get, never get enough of this)
This rush, this rush
To touch the earth before you fall
To know that here and now with you
Remains forever after all
To hear the beauty in dissonance
To finally know that all our questions
Make perfect sense
To break the surface and breathe the air
And feel the rush of love
(Feel the rush of love)
To taste that holy kiss
(Taste that holy kiss)
I could never get enough of this
(Never get, never get enough of this)
This rush, this rush
This rush
(To be the first in someone's life)
Oh, this rush
(To set the sun in someone's eyes)
I could never get enough of
(To hold forever for a day)
Oh, this rush
(And never let it slip away)
This rush
To be the first
In someone's life
To set the sun and raise the moon
This ain't as hard as I thought it would be
It's harder
It's just the sound of nobody but me
For starters
I didn't know, I didn't know it all
Didn't see the fine print written on the wall
What do I do now
I can do whatever I want to
What do I do now
With the other side of the bed
How do I spend those long Sunday afternoons
Now that the slate is clean
And the closet's all cleared out
What do I do now
Yeah
I got some friends who wanna fix me up
Do I let 'em
Pack up the pictures and throw them away
And forget 'em
Redecorate or take a trip somewhere
Change the color of these walls
Or the color of my hair
What do I do now
I can do whatever I want to
What do I do now
With the other side of the bed
How do I spend those long Sunday afternoons
Now that the slate is clean
And the closet's all cleared out
What do I do now, oh, oh, mm-mm
I'm a little anxious
A little relieved
I'm a little cynical
A little naive
It makes it kinda hard to figure
Makes it kinda hard to figure out
What do I do now
I can do whatever I want to
What do I do now
With the other side of my bed
And how do I spend most long Sunday afternoons
Now that the slate is clean
And the closet's all cleared out (cleared out)
What do I do now, yeah
What do I do now
Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, should've opened up my heart
Well, there you go in the wrong direction
Here I am right, where I've always been
Typical, I'm missing my connection again, again
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, should've opened up my heart
Yeah, you were right within my reach, something
Any other fool could see, shame, shame, shame on me
I found my nerve, guess where it was hiding
Crumpled up underneath the kitchen sink
A little late, I didn't read the writing
I read a romance novel instead
Now, I can't get you out of my head, oh no, no
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, should've opened up my heart
Yeah, you were right within my reach, something
Any other fool could see, shame, shame, shame on me
Your lips, your fingertips, your sun-kissed hair
I see the pieces of you everywhere, you're everywhere
Shame, shame, shame, should've let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, I should've opened up my heart
Yeah, you were right within my reach, something
Any other fool could see, shame, shame, shame on me
Should've let it go too far, shame, shame, shame
Every kiss before this
Was nothing but a waste of breath
And every I love you was just a whoop-de-doo
Never knew what I missed before this
Da, doo, doo, doo
Ooo, Ooo
And every love song before you came along
Was always about someone else
Oh, and every star was just a wish too far
Always a realist, yeah, before this
Chorus
And the way things go, you never know
Where love will lead you to
And everything we've ever dreamed
Lies before me and you
People say, it's not everyday
That you find the perfect fit
But when I fell for you, I found the other shoe
Cupid was a myth before this
(Repeat Chorus)
Yeah-
Da, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Da, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Da, doo, doo, doo, doo
Yeah
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
Yeah, before me
I won't be bored
I won't be ignored
Hey!
I won't be your dirty secret
I won't be your cure-all pill
And I won't run to fetch the water
Just to tumble down the hill
I won't be your Friday paycheck
I won't be the prize you flaunt
And I won't be your Martha Stewart, baby
Or your all-night restaurant
Chorus
But I will, I will, I will be your everything
If you make me feel like a woman should
I will, I will, I will be the whole shebang
You know I will...but
I won't be your clutch to lean on
I won't wear stiletto heels
I won't walk a mile in your shoes
Just so I know how it feels
I won't be your obligation
I won't be your Barbie doll
I won't be the portrait of perfection
To adorn your wall
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
Hey- you know, you know I will
All right
I won't be your lifetime girlfriend
I won't be just one of the guys
I won't be your mama's favorite
I refuse to be the last in line
(Repeat Chorus)
Yeah, I will, I will, I will be your everything
I will, I will be the whole shebang
I will, I will be your everything
I will, I will, I will, I will- yeah
You know I will
You know, you know I will
You know I will
Paper-faced, sterilized
Ravenous enough to swallow the lies
What on earth did we do
Before this town invented you
With life exaggerated
You must be so elated
CHORUS
How does it feel now that
Everybody wants you, everybody wants you
You're so ideal now that
Everybody wants you
Will you even cry, cry, cry
Falling from that high, high, high
Everybody wants you
Through the gloss, looking smooth
Flash a smile that climatizes the room
But all the hype and hot air
Can't cover up what's under there
You're stylishly contagious
Until they flip the pages
(REPEAT CHORUS)
BRIDGE
What will you do
When they don't, don't, don't want you
And how will you feel
When you have to get real
Is this picture all too vivid
'Cause you look a little livid
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Yeah, yeah everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants you
Oh, everybody
Everybody wants you, wants you
Yeah yeah, everybody wants you
Everybody wants you, wants you
What if my heart
Had walked right past you
What if my eyes
Had never asked you
To come and take the chains
That kept me weighted down
If you never saved me
Oh, I know I'd still be
Chorus
Walking in sinking sand
Flying with no place to land
Oh, I'd be lost
Searching for you
Heaven would be out of reach
My soul left incomplete
That's where I'd be
Without your love
You're the reason
That I feel so safe
The way you hold me
Holds my heart in place
I'm just thankful to be
Where I am right now
Without your arms around me
I'd be where you found me
(Repeat Chorus)
Ahh, ah
Ahh, ah
(Repeat Chorus)
That's where I'd be
This woman that takes on the world
And picks up your shirts, keeps it together somehow
This same woman, that melts with your touch
Wants you to feel what I'm feeling right now
Chorus
Cause this woman needs
A safe place to land
The strength in your hands
To know you know
What this woman needs
Is somewhere to cry
So lay by my side
And I'll tell you, I'll tell you
This woman needs to be reassured
That my heart's your home and love is what wills you to stay
I need you to see me in every light
And hear that you still think I'm beautiful anyway
(Repeat Chorus)
What this woman needs
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, what this woman needs
Is somewhere to cry
So lay by my side
And I'll tell you, I'll tell you
What this woman needs
Yeah, what this woman needs
Yeah, yeah, yeah-
She doesn't know me by name
But I know everything about her
She likes to work in her rose garden
And vacation in New Hampshire
She gets him every holiday
And every Sunday afternoon
By 8, she tucks his babies in
I know she loves him like I do
And I wanted to call her so many times
But I never found the nerve
She gets what I deserve
Oooh, yeah
It's not the way that I planned
Just the right man, the wrong time
Even the moments he's holdin' me
I know he's not really mine
When I appear into the windows of the home
I'm torn apart
I can't help but wonder
Whatever happened to my heart
Such an uninvited lesson
I never meant to learn
She gets what I deserve
I can't whitewash my excuses
I can't cover up the stain
I can't give back what I've taken
I should be the one to bare the pain
I just pray that God forgives me
For what I've done to her
She gets what I deserve
Passenger side, I slide on in
Vinyl seats hot from the heat of the sun
Chewin' on a Slim Jim, can't stop
thinkin' about him
Yeah, yeah, yeah he's the one
Yeah, yeah, yeah he's the one
Ooo life's so sweet right here in the
passenger seat
Ooo yeah life's so sweet
When I look to my left, see his
suntanned hands
His muddy river hair and his
thousand-acre plans
I'm all shook up like a quarter in a can
Ain't life sweet in the passenger seat
I daydream of me and a cold cotton pillow
And the feel of his skin
The windowsill smiles and before I know
it I'm miles
Away sittin' next to him
Miles away sittin' next to him
Shiftin' those gears baby, one, two, three
Then he shifts those ocean eyes back to me
Can't imagine a moment any better than this
Then we kiss
Ooo Life's so sweet right here in the
passenger seat
Ooo yeah, life's so sweet
Ooo life's so sweet right here in the
passenger seat
Ooo yeah life's so sweet, it's life's so sweet
It's life's so sweet, it's so sweet in the
passenger seat
Life's so, life's so
Life's so sweet
Never thought I'd be in this place
It's someone else's life I'm living
Wish I were living a lie
The hardest part is when the bough breaks
Falling down and then forgiving
You didn't kiss me good bye
I'm choking on the words I didn't get to say
And pray I get the chance one day
I still run, I still swing open the door
I still think, you'll be there like before
Doesn't everybody out there know to never come around
Some things a heart won't listen to
I'm still holding out for you, yeah
I can hear you smile in the dark
I can even feel you breathing
But daylight chases the ghosts
I see your coat and I fall apart
To those hints of you I'm clinging
Now's when I need them most
I should get up, dry my eyes and move ahead
At least that's what you would have said
I still run, I still swing open the door
I still think, you'll be there like before
Doesn't everybody out there know to never come around
Some things a heart won't listen to
I'm still holding out for you
Faithfully, I trace your name while you sleep
It's the only true comfort I feel
I still run, I still swing open the door
I still think, you'll be there like before
I still run, I still swing open the door
I still think, you'll be there like before
Doesn't everybody out there know to never come around
Some things a heart won't listen to
I'm still holding out for you
When I said I love you, baby
You said knock on wood
I'm afraid I knocked harder
Than I probably should
Those mockingbird words got away from me
Wish I could take them back, yeah
I wonder how you've been
Since we kissed good-bye
'Cause the grass ain't any greener
here on my side
I thought the broken pieces
would all blow away
When the season changed
But nothing's changed
The alarm still rings at five-fifteen
The day goes off like a rifle
Mrs. Jones next door is still extreme
Goes on and on about the Bible
What comes around still goes around
Sun comes up, sun goes down
And love goes on
Yeah, love goes on when you're gone
If we ran into each other, wonder what I'd say
Baby, please come home
Or, looks like rain today
Heard you're moving to Denver
No, I'd never have guessed
Or would I just confess
It's an ache in the bones, it's a
ghost in the trees
It's the one little tear that could
fill up the sea
I happened to you, you happened to me
But now that's gone
And love goes on, yeah love goes on
I said, love goes on
And love goes on and on and on and on
Yeah, when you're gone
(It's an ache in the bones - it's a ghost
in the trees)
Yeah, yeah when you're gone
(It's the one little tear that could
1st verse
In my meagor defense I've tried to make sense
of the chaos that clutters my mind
you can nail to my soul every reason to go
but the reason to stay I would find
Chorus
cause there's no resolution or clear-cut conclusion
as I'm caught between the ebb and flow
but for you I'll discover the will to recover
for you I'll be first to let go
2nd verse
Im not his I'm not yours I'm not mine anymore
somehow the silver lining was torn
and we won't get to far with the door just ajar
only whispers keeping us warm
repeat chorus
the first to let go
I'll send you lullaby
across the first open sky
so looking to heaven you'll know
for you I let go
when I see on your face
one day I've been replaced
I'll smile as I watch you fly
and say one grateful prayer
to the angel that's there
and cry for the one left behind
Repeat Chorus
The first to let go
God only knows how I've needed a friend
Who can see through the boldness and pride
Someone strong enough to put my faith in
Someone willing to let me inside
So be a man
And be my man
I dare you to need me like nobody else
I dare you to feel me like you've never felt
I dare you to want to want
Want to be good to me
Baby you've got your reasons dangling
from kite strings
Can you open your hands and let them fly
I know you won't always say and do the
right things
But some things are worth a try
If you can
Be my man
I dare you to know me like I've never known
I dare you to show me that I can be shown
Dare you to want to want
Want to be good to me
Tell me I'm
Tell me I'm the one who deserves you
And every time
Every time you know that you want to
Yeah, I dare you
I dare you to hold me like you never
will - again
Kiss me and leave the earth standing still
Dare you to want to want
Yeah, I dare you to want to want
Somewhere between
What can and can't be seen
I knelt in your spring
You dusted off my wings
Your kiss upon my face
Feels like a brush with grace
Baby, that's all it takes
To take me higher
Chorus
If true love really does exist
It would feel as pure as this
Baby, it's as if
We're dancing with angels
Stealing light from shooting stars
We're just taking what is ours
In each other's arm
We're dancing with angels
How did we find
Smooth blue in a crooked sky
Could be love winds
Gold threads through a grand design
Your whisper on my skin
Familiar healing wind
We must be slipping in
Heaven's windows
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh, oh, oh, oh -- oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah -- ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, oh -- oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah -- yeah, yeah
Bridge
(Yeah) Your kiss upon my face
(Yeah) Feels like a brush with grace
(Yeah) Baby, that's all it takes
To take me higher
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
Angels, angels
Dancing with, dancing with, dancing with angels
Do you know I'm thinking you?
Can you feel me drinking you?
Is any of this sinking through?
Neatly, so completely bent
By this brilliant accident
I couldn't seem to circumvent
Your dizzy exhilaration
Clouding my concentration
I'm lit, don't you get it yet
See this circus in my head
I'm tangled in the net
Baby, this is it
I'm lit, nothin' left to do
But another shot of you
I can't stop this spinning room
Baby, this is it, I'm lit
It's getting hard to breathe in here
Maybe I should disappear
Find another atmosphere
Or maybe I should just come clean
Take it to a new extreme
Fashionably make a scene
But there is no need to panic
I'm just a harmless romantic
I'm lit, don't you get it yet
See this circus in my head
I'm tangled in the net
Baby, this is it
I'm lit, nothin' left to do
But another shot of you
I can't stop this spinning room
Baby, this is it, I'm lit
Someone get the dog and hitch the truck
And drag me from this table
Before they come and lock me up
Declaring me, declaring unstable
I'm lit, don't you get it yet
See this circus in my head
I'm tangled in the net
Baby, this is it
I'm lit, nothin' left to do
But another shot of you
I can't stop this spinning room
Baby, this is it, I'm lit
I'm lit, don't you get it yet
See this circus in my head
I'm tangled in the net
Baby, this is it
I'm lit, nothin' left to do
But another shot of you
I can't stop this spinning room
My revolution
Welcome to my revolution
My revolution, my revolution, my revolution, my revolution
My revolution
Yeah, yeah, yeah -
Learning to turn the outside inside out (inside outside inside out)
Having the courage to find what life is all about
Loving so purely can surely melt a frozen heart
Knowing sometimes all over's
The perfect place to start
Welcome to my revolution
Lucky you, lucky me
The way we were meant to be
This is my one resolution and I make it with no fear
To live, to love today
'Cause it's a brand new year
Seeing the world through rose-colored eyes
Yeah, this is my one big chance and I'm gonna take it twice
With the past down below, I know love lifted me up here
So I'll take a breath, kiss the sky, toll the bell
'Cause it's a brand new year
Resiliently reclaiming me
Refining my recovery
Untwist my fate, unlock the gate
Let's make a little noise
'Cause it's a brand new year
Oh, welcome to my revolution
Welcome to my revolution, baby, yeah
Lucky you, lucky me
The way we were meant to be
This is my one resolution and I make it with no fear
It's never been so clear
Second chance is what got me here
To live, to love today
'Cause it's a brand new year
Lucky you, lucky me
'Cause it's a brand new year
Oh, oh, lucky you, lucky me
'Cause it's a brand new year
Welcome to my revolution
Lucky you, lucky me, yeah, yeah
Welcome to my revolution
Lucky you, lucky me, yeah, yeah
If you could hear these four walls talking
If you could hear my heart just walking
Round and round this dollhouse
Trying to make it real
If you could see this sunrise setting
The disconnection I'm regretting
Now and then was then
But now is how I feel
My handwritten fears and drops of rage
(Trying to dry these drops of rage)
Require a steady hand
To turn the page
[Chorus:]
It was easy falling in love
It was beautiful on the way up
But I need a man goin' down
I need a man goin' down
You were a dreamer, you were a kid
And flying too high is what we did
Now I need a man goin' down
Can you be my man goin' down down down
Where's the shiver, where's the shameless craving
We used to have but now I'm waiting here
For you to come to me
And show me, know me
Hovering above this quaking ground
(Don't wanna break this quaking ground)
Yeah, I found the purest words that I've ever
That I've ever found
(Believe me, believe me)
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Tell me that you'll love me still
Tell me when I won't you will
Be a gentle covering
When the rain turns to rust
Tell me you'll be twice as strong
When I feel I don't belong
And take me, take me home
[Repeat Chorus]
Yeah, I need a man
Can you be my man
'Cause I need my man
Are you that man
[Fade]
Big fake snowflakes hanging from the streetlights
Marshmallow children bundled up so tight
Short fuses, long lines, so much for a silent night
Then, magically we all wake up (Once a year we all wake up)
And find ourselves here in our own -
Tinseltown
Where everything glitters
Tinseltown
All sparkle and shimmer
Look around and see the brightest stars come out
In Tinseltown, in Tinseltown
There King manger scene, glowing on the front lawn
Ladies auxiliary butchering "The Christmas Song"
Quarters in the kettle of the gin-jolly Santa Claus
Then, magically we all wake up (Once a year we all wake up)
And find ourselves here in our own -
So where's the -
Batteries, it's Christmas Eve, assembly is required
Can't get the kids to sleep, sugar's got them wired
Finally around midnight (all is calm, all is bright)
Then, magically we all wake up (Once a year we all wake up)
And find ourselves here in our own -
Tinseltown
Tinseltown, Tinseltown
Look at the happy people
Christmas is in the air
Well I know the secret of Christmas
A secret I'm willing to share (oh right yeah yeah)
It's not the glow you feel, when snow appears
It's not the Christmas card, you've sent for years
Not the joyful sound, when sleigh bells ring (ring ring ring)
Or the merry songs, children sing
Yeah the little gift you send, on Christmas day
Will not bring back the friend, you turned away
So may I suggest, the secret of Christmas (the secret of Christmas)
It's not the things you do, at Christmas time
But the Christmas things you all year through
La la, la la la, la la la. La la la la
So may I suggest, the secret of Christmas (the secret of Christmas)
It's not the things you do, at Christmas time
But the Christmas things you all year
Look at the happy people (it's not the things you do)
Christmas is in the air (it's not the glow you feel)
Well I know the secret of Christmas
A secret I'm willing to share
Just hear those sleigh bells jinglin', ring ting tinglin' to
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
The snow is fallin' and friends are callin' "you-who"
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with, you
With you
Giddy-up let's go, let's look at the show
Were ridin' in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up it's grand, just holdin' your hand
(Just holdin' your hand, just holdin' your hand)
Were gliding along with a song of a wintery fairy land
Our cheeks are rosey and comfy cozy we're snuggled up (together)
Like two birds of a feather will be
Let's take the road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with, you
With you
There's a Christmas party at the home of Farmer Fred
It will be the perfect ending of a perfect day
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Courier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives
These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives
Just hear those sleigh bells jinglin' (ring ting tinglin', ring ting tinglin')
Oh those sleigh bells jinglin' (together with you, together with you)
The snow is fallin' (and friends are calling "you-who")
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with, you
With, with you
Our cheeks are rosy and comfy cousy we're snuggled up (together)
Like two birds of a feather will be
Let's take the road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on it's lovely weather (together, together)
Yeah it's lovely weather (together, together)
Oh it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with, you
I wish you lived on the corner where I live
So I could look at you all the day long
Lickety lip got me flippin' my lid, yeah
Nibblin' my thumb 'cause I want me some
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo just a little bit a
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo
Am I makin' you uncomfortable?
And if you lived on the corner where I lived
I'd hang around like an apple in a tree
Borrow some bread, stick of butter, cup of milk
And some sugar for me
I'm cookin' something sweet
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo just a little bit a
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo
[Chorus:]
Lookin' once, lookin' twice
Better get me a bucket of ice
Go on do whatever you do
I'll just sit here enjoyin' the view
Whistlin' Dixie
360 degrees of you - Oooo, Oooo
I picture me twisted up in your t-shirt
Pink lemondade and a squeaky porch swing
Don't know your name yet, I guess it
wouldn't hurt
If you gave me a ring - a big diamond ring
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo well a girl can dream
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo
[Repeat Chorus]
[Second Chorus:]
Lookin' once lookin' twice
Your a splash of Tabasco on hot apple pie
Baby girls like it too
Like to sit around enjoying the view
Whistlin' Dixie, 360
Whistlin' Dixe, 360 degrees of you, Oooo, Oooo
Just a little bit of you, Oooo, Oooo
Gotsa, gotsa have you, Oooo, Oooo
Just a little bit of you, Oooo, Oooo
Oh, I'm gonna have you
[Fade]
I sold your Rolex
To buy that gold Versace dress
I set free your whiny French poodle
So you can get your beauty rest
And I did it all for you
I did it all (I did it all) for you
This Christmas (This Christmas)
All your dreams (all your dreams)
Will come true
I put your mother on a Greyhound (You did what?)
You'd always hoped she'd have the chance to see the world (leave our mom alone)- now she can
I torched your Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues (no, no, no, no)
So I could be your only girl - and now I am
How can I forget
All you've done for me, I'll get you yet
This is the season to give
But I can never forgive the damage that you've done
(Damage that you've done)
This must be love
I sank your bass boat (Not my bass boat, no, no, no)
So you'd have more time to spend with me
I hooked your grandma's diamond earrings
For the down payment on my SUV
Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hoah, ooh
Sun kisses the windowsill
And I am still on my second cup of pity me
Yeah, it's been a long night chasing ghosts
But at the most, it's been a rude awakening
That all too late I finally see (I finally see), I see
That it's -
My loss, my lonely
My mistake, mine only
Mine all, mine all, mine (mine)
Hoah, and it's my bad, my broken
All my should haves left unspoken
Mine all, mine all, mine
Hoah hoah hoah yeah
I drove you to the edge of the map
And after that , I pushed you off just to watch you
Fall
You never were the bounce back kind
But boy, this time you've proven me wrong after all
Now I'm the one who's gonna crawl
Cause it's -
My loss, my lonely
My mistake, mine only
Mine all, mine all, mine (mine)
Hoah, and it's my bad, my broken
All my should haves left unspoken
Mine all, mine all, mine
Always thought I'd get to sorry
But the chance has come and gone
So if it finds it's way back in
I'll hold on, hold on, hold on
My loss ( that's my loss)
My lonely (my lonely)
My mistake (my mistake)
Mine only
Mine all, mine all
Mine all, mine all
Mine all, mine
It's mine all mine
It's mine all mine
Yeah it's mine all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
So what you packed up, picked up your love and left
I can pick up 50 channels on the TV set
I've got 10 toenails I can paint a nice shade of pink
But when the fun's done in a second or two
I kinda sorta maybe start missin you
So I crank up the radio to drown out the thoughts I think
Almost always you never cross my mind
Almost always I never cry
Every other minute I'm strong as I can be
It's just those lonely minutes in between
But I'm doin OK almost always
Just because I let the dog sleep on the bed
Doesn't mean I'm wishin you were here instead
Whisperin sweet words, lyin all close to me
Yeah, I don't dream about you cuz I lie awake
I always thought sleep was over rated anyway
I find most of the time I'm almost over you as I'll ever be
Almost always you never cross my mind
Almost always I never cry
Every other minute I'm strong as I can be
It's just those lonely minutes in between
But I'm doin OK almost always
Almost always you never cross my mind
Almost always I never cry
Every other minute I'm strong as I can be
It's just those lonely minutes in between
Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the Lord
He is trampling out the vintage
Where the grapes of wrath are stored
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
Of His terrible swift sword
His truth is marching on
Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!
Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!
Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on
In the beauty of the lilies
Christ was born across the sea
With a glory in his bosom
That transfigures you and me
As he died to make men holy
Let us live to make men free
While God is marching on
You and I we started out
I thought that we were cool
You took the time, you read my mind
There's nothin' you wouldn't do, yeah
I give, you take
I got news we're gonna break
Is it kickin' in
Yeah, my nerves are raw
And they're wearin' thin
Is it kickin' in
I know I've said it before
You wanna play me again
I'm not a freak show
Ego kinda thing
I can suck it up or spit you out
So take your best swing
I'm gunna jump right off of this sinkin' ship
Are you feelin' me yet
Is it kickin' in
One day you might discover that I used to care
I'll be that speck in your rear view mirror
The back that just won't scare, yeah
Humm, oh well, too bad
I'm the best you ever had
Is it kickin' in
Yeah my nerves are raw
And they're wearin' thin
Is it kickin' in
I know I've said it before
You won't play me again
I'm not a freak show
Ego kinda thing
I can suck it up or spit you out
So take your best swing
I'm gonna jump right off of this sinkin' ship
Are you feelin me yet
Is it kickin'.
I give you take
I got news we're gonna break
Oh, well too bad
I'm the best you ever had
Is it kickin' in
I'm not gonna break

Is it kickin' in
It's the same old lies
So this is goodbye
Kickin' in
Yeah, my nerves are raw
And they're wearin' thin
Is it kickin' in
I know I've said it before
You won't play me again
I'm not a freak show
Ego kinda thing
I can suck it up or spit you out
So take your best swing
I'm gonna jump right off of this sinkin' ship
Are you feelin' me yet
Is it kickin' in
Oh, oh, is it kickin' in
Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go (ah ah)
Laughing all the way (ah ah)
Bells are bound to ring making spirit's bright (spirit's bright)
Oh what fun it is to ride and sing, sing a sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Come and ride with me in that open sleigh
A day or two ago (a day or two ago)
I thought I'd take a ride (I thought I'd take a ride)
I can't think of a better way to spend the day
Then with you by my, you right by my side
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's you, it's me, the moon, the trees
(The moon and the trees let's glide through the snow)
With no where to go
Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way (come and ride with me, come out and ride with me)
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Come outside with me, come and ride with me
In that open sleigh
You can say you're on the healin' side
You can say you've finally seen the light
But I don't see it yet, so how do I forget
Don't you whisper borrowed words
When you know just how hard it hurts
Baby, break it right
Leave me on the healing side
'Cause it's not just love you're killing
All you wasted and watered down
I'm not able, I'm not willing
To just lay this in the ground
If I don't have a quiet place to run and hide
Have mercy, leave me on the healing side
Oh, the healing side
Watch the blue folding into black
And if I could I wouldn't give it back
This I can't undo
But I can make it through
'Cause it's not just love you're killing
All you wasted and watered down
I'm not able, I'm not willing
To just lay this in the ground
If I don't have a quiet place to run and hide
Oh, have mercy, leave me on the healing side
Maybe I needed too much
Maybe not enough
This would have been easy
If it were all about us
'Cause it's not just love you're killing
All you wasted and watered down
I'm not able, I'm not willing
To just lay this in the ground
If I don't have a quite place to run and hide
Oh, have mercy, leave me on the healing side
You can say you're on the healing side
You can say you've finally seen the light
He's a young man
In his golden years
His hair of black now quickly fades to gray
The limp as he walks is his only souvenir
From those purple-hearted war time days
But you don't hear him complain
No matter how the fall
I don't have a lot, he'd smile and say
But lord I have it all
He's a hero
In my mother's eyes
He taught her how to raise me right
and never compromise
He always says he has the
finer things in life
Somewhere to live, someone to love
and the Good book to live by
Some say his heart is big
All though his fortune's small
I don't have a lot, he'd smile and say
But lord I have it all
A rembrandt in his own right
A master at his craft
Creating something beautiful
A memory that will last
And always last
He's the constant
In our family
Beginning this long line of love
We've cared
And even when he's gone he'll watch over me
When I close my eyes at night I feel him there
Wear my name, well my child
Be true and stand tall
You don't have a lot he'd always say
But lord you have it all
You don't have a lot he'd always say
But thank the Lord you have it all
I pull the covers 'cross the bed
I tuck away the thoughts in my head
And I live behind closed doors
Knowing I will always love you more
And I won't fall apart
I won't lie in pieces on the ground
I won't fall apart
If we say it all without a sound
If we could last another day
Filled with nothing left to say
I will know I've loved my best
Then maybe I could put my heart to rest
If I could make the sun rise a little too slow
To keep from hearing what I already know
I will live behind closed doors
I put away the groceries
And I take my daily bread
I dream of your arms around me
As I tuck the kids in bed
I don't know what you're doin'
And I don't know where you are
But I look up at that great big sky
And I hope you're wishin' on that same
bright star
I wonder, I pray
And I sleep alone
I cry alone
And it's so hard livin' here on my own
So please, come home soon
(Come home soon)
I know that we're together
Even though we're far apart
And I'll wear our lucky penny 'round my neck
Pressed to my heart
I wonder, I pray
I still imagine your touch
It's beautiful missing something that much
But sometimes love needs a fighting chance
So I'll wait my turn until it's our turn to dance
I wonder, I pray
I sleep alone
I cry alone
Without you this house is not a home
So please, come home soon
I walk alone
I try alone
I'll wait for you, don't want to die alone
So please, come home soon
Come home soon
Hey Jack, take back
All those lines you're tripping
That's not who I am
It ain't that quaint
You're composure's slipping
Right into my hands
('Cause when -- just a little bit, just a little bit) I smile
(Just a little bit) You fall hard
Chorus
Stop listening to you
Start listening to me
I'll know when the lights are changing, you'll see
If you're liking the view
Baby, it don't come free -- yeah, yeah
(Never, never, never)
I think you're gonna stay, 'cause I like it that way
I think you're gonna stay, 'cause I like it that way
Time to undo
All your archaic thinking
We're supposed to share this cave
Bye, bye, tough guy
Won't know what hit you 'till you're down
Your heart is mine to save
('Cause when -- just a little bit, just a little bit) I smile
(Just a little bit) You fall hard
(Repeat Chorus)
Da, da, da, da, da -- hey
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da -- hey
('Cause when -- just a little bit, just a little bit) I smile
(Just a little bit) You fall hard
(Repeat Chorus)
I think you're gonna stay, 'cause I like it that way
I think you're gonna stay, think you're gonna stay
I think you're gonna -- stay
You always say that I have multiple personalities
And I found some where between my dreams and reality
So where did you dig up the ardasity to ask me how we've all been doin (how we've all been doin) since you broke our hearts.
Chorus:
Well so far,
Number 5 just cries a river runnin
7 wants to tie you up and drown you in it yeah
14 just wants to say so long (by gone)
32 wants to do things to you that will make you blush
10 will key the ElCamino that you love so much
and there ain't nobody want to mess with 23
ooowww Lucky 4 you tonight...im just me....(yeah yeah)
I guess this part is more than your new bar could bargeen for
shes got you by the sleeve
slowly easing towards the door
shes probablly right you should be moving on you'll know how long
We can't be hate better have the valay get your car
Cuz you know how women are.
Chorus
Forgive my sister key
According to my shrink
But its not just up to me, I don't know girls what do you think?
Chorus 3X
Up all night thinkin' 'bout the day
You pull me close then you push me away
You could keep pretending you got everythin' you need
But I don't give up so easily
Whatever it takes I'm gonna try
Whatever it takes day or night
I'll climb up that mountain
I'll touch the sky
Everything all in one day
Whatever it takes
Life gets hard, nothing's ever free
You don't believe in the things you can't see
But every now than we need someone to pull us through
And maybe that someone is you
Whatever it takes I'm gonna try
Whatever it takes day or night
I'll climb up that mountain
I'll touch the sky
Everything all in one day
Whatever it takes
It's not in my mind, I can feel it
Love will unwind
This is real I'm not going away
You can wander but I'm willing to stay
Up all night, hmm
Thinking 'bout the day
You pull me close
And know just what to say
Whatever it takes I'm gonna try
Whatever it takes day or night
I'll climb up that mountain
I'll touch the sky
Everything all in one day
Oh, oh, yeah
Whatever it takes I'm gonna try
Whatever it takes day or night
I'll climb up that mountain
I'll touch the sky
Everything all in one day, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I thought that this was supposed to feel good
And if you were really mine
I guess it would
I didn't fall in love
'Cause it was the right thing to do
I just went ahead and fell for you
Chorus
Oh, somewhere down along the line
I guess that love became a crime
This contradiction makes no sense
This is punishment
I feel like this is judgement day
I'll raise my hand, stand up and say
I don't believe I'm innocent
This is punishment
Truth is your heart was never mine to take
Now I'm stuck in a feeling
That I'll never shake
I prayed for it to go
God knows I want it to stay
But here I am loving you either way
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
You'll never feel all the things I can't say
And I'll never know if it's better this way
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh, somewhere down along the line
I guess that love became a crime
(This is punishment)
I feel like this is judgement day
I'll raise my hand, stand up and say
(This is punishment)
This is punishment
This is punishment
Hark the Herald Angels sing
Glory to the new born King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconcile
Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumphs of the skies
With angelic hosts proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark how the bells sweet silver bells
all seem to say throw cares away
Christmas is here bringing good cheer
to young and old meek and the bold
All season long bringing their song
With cheerful ring sweet caroling
All seems to hear loads of good cheer
From everywhere filling the air
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Oh how they raising the sound
Gaily they ring while people sing
songs of good cheer Christmas is here

Glory to the King
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
Hark hear the bells sweet silver bells
Gladly they sing Christ is our King (ring ring)
What's up with the current innuendo
Buzz around into a fevery crescendo
You'll never
You can't
Why does everybody fear
What they don't understand
Stand up and listen to the sister, mister
Been around here long enough
We're strong enough
We're gonna sing the song enough
To shake this institution
It's a SHE-volution
Can't (can't) just flyby
Gotta knock, knock on the sky
We can't (can't) just flyby
Gotta knock, knock on the sky
Who cares about the popular affliction
The dull-headed, brain-dead corny contradiction
Well you know we're gonna say
Just what we're gonna say
Hey now before you do or die us
Try us
So what if we wear parachutes or jacket boots
At least we're fully resolute
To use imagination
To try and move a generation
Can't (can't) just flyby
Gotta knock, knock on the sky
We can't (can't) just flyby
Gotta knock, knock on the sky
Sane or eratic
Mundane or dramatic
Just do what you do what you do me and you
To thine ownself be true
Can't (can't) just flyby
Gotta knock, knock on the sky
We can't (can't) just flyby
Gotta knock, knock on the sky
Hark the Herald Angels sing
Glory to the new born King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconcile
Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumphs of the skies
With angelic hosts proclaim

Gladly they sing Christ is our King (ring ring)
You always said that I have multiple personalities
I bounce around somewhere between my dreams and reality
So where'd you dig up the audacity to ask me
How we've all been doing
Since you broke our hearts
(Well, so far)
Chorus
Number 5 just cries a river a minute
7 wants to tie you up and drown you in it
Yeah, 14 just wants to say so long, bygones
32 wants to do things to you that'll make you blush
10 would key the El Camino that you love so much
And there ain't nobody wants to mess with 23
Oh, lucky 4 you tonight I'm just me
I guess this party's more than your new Barbie bargained for
She's got you by the sleeve, slowly easing towards the door
She's probably right, you should be movin' on
Don't know how long we can behave
Better have the valet get your car
('Cause you know how women are)
(Reapeat Chorus)
Bridge
Forgiveness is the key
According to my shrink
But, it's not just up to me
(I don't know girls, what d'ya think?)
(Repeat Chorus 3x)
What child is this who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come peasant king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
Raise, raise the song on high
The Virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Babe, the Son of Mary, Mary
Kristyn: And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them
And the glory of the Lord shone round about them
And they were sore afraid
Kelsi: And the angel said unto them Fear not:
For, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day
in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord
Kassidy: And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe
Wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of heavenly host
Praising God, and saying Glory to God in the highest, and on earth
I won't be ignored
I won't be bored
Hey!
I won't be your dirty secret
I won't be your cure-all pill
And I won't run to fetch the water
Just to tumble down the hill
I won't be your Friday paycheck
I won't be the prize you flaunt
And I won't be your Martha Stewart, baby
Or your all night restaurant
chorus:
But I will, I will, I will be your everything
If you make me feel like a woman should
I will, I will, I will be the whole shebang
You know I will...but
I won't be your crutch to lean on
I won't wear stiletto heels
I won't walk a mile in your shoes
Just so I know how it feels
I won't be your obligation
I won't be your Barbie doll
I won't be the portrait of perfection
To adorn your wall
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
Hey - you know I will
All right
I wont be your lifetime girlfriend
I won't be just one of the guys
I won't be your mama's favorite
I refuse to be the last in line
(repeat chorus)
Yeah, I will, I will, I wll be your everything
I will, I will be the whole shebang
I will, I will be your everything
I will, I will, I will, I will- yeah
You know I will
You know, you know I will
You know I will
You know, you know I will - yeah
I know you're gonna break it
You're gonna break it clean
This frame never could take
A season so cruel and mean
I can't be who I wanna be
These walls aren't mine
Nobody else can make me right
Nobody else can feel this wrong
And in one moment I am light
Another dead as night
I should have known I'd never own
This borrowed home
Too deep into the passage
Of love so overgrown
And now forever I'm cast
As heavy as sinking stone
I can't rise when I wanna rise
In this bed I sleep with ghosts
Nobody else can make me right
Nobody else can feel this wrong
And in one moment I am light
Another dead as night
I should have known I'd never own
This borrowed home
The windows open and the truth closes in
What a sweet beginning to the bitter end
I can't live where I wanna live
If I can't find my way home
Nobody else can make me right
Nobody else can feel this wrong
And in one moment I am light
Another dead as night
I should have known I'd never own
This borrowed home
I'm home
Borrowed home
Look at me, I'm gorgeous in my housecoat with my coffee cup
I bend to get the paper, every neighbor's tryin' to check me out
Look at me, I'm lovely as I wave beside my Minivan
Look at how my diamonds seem to sparkle on the garbage can
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleanin' up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)
Look at how my children play Commando in the Cul-de-sac
Look at how my husband has survived another heart attack
Look at all the other mothers envious of all my things
Have to call the plummer 'cause my daughter flushed my wedding ring
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleanin' up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)
Look at me, I'm beautiful and glamorous in rubber gloves
Look how my Tiara can be bent back to the shape it was
I can do the laundry and make dinner while I'm on the phone
Look at me, I'm sexy as the devil when I mow the lawn
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleanin' up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
When you said yesterday that it's nearly Christmas
What did I want and I thought just love me, love me, love me
That's what I want for Christmas
When I walk through a room let them see you need me
Walk through a room let them see you love me, love me, love me
That's what I want for Christmas
Anyone can wish for all the trinkets in the window
Some can even buy the things they see
But the presents that I want (I want)
You'll never find in any window
Bring me love and bring it just for me (for me)
When you come home at night (baby)
Take me in your arms and hold me (baby)
Kiss me, and (let them say you love me) say you love me, love me, oh love me
That's what I want for Christmas
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Love me, Love me
Oh that's what I want, that's what I want for Christmas (yeah)
Anyone can wish for all the trinkets in the window
Some can even buy the things they see (that's what I want, that's what I want)
But the presents that I want (I want)
You'll never find in any window
Bring me love and bring it just for me (for me)
When you come home at night
And you take me in your arms
And you hold me (hold me) kiss me (kiss me, let them see you love me)
And say you love me (love me), love me (love me), love me (love me, love me)
That's what I want for Christmas (that's what I want, that's what I want)
(Hold me) Hold me
(Kiss me) Kiss me
(Kristyn Osborn/Marcus Hummon)
Shedaisy: I sold your Rolex
To buy that gold Versace dress
Rascal Flatts: I set free your whiny French poodle
So you could get your beauty rest
And I did it all for you
I did it all (I did it all) for you
This Christmas (This Christmas)
All your dreams (All your dreams)
Will come true
Rascal Flatts: I put your mother on a greyhound (you did what?)
You always hoped she'd have the chance to see the world-now she can
Shedaisy: I torched your Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues (No, no, no,no)
So I could be your only girl-and now I am
And I did it all for you
I did it all (I did it all) for you
This Christmas (This Christmas)
All your dreams (All your dreams)
Will come true
Shedaisy: How can I forget
All you've done for me
I'll get you yet
Rascal Flatts: This is the season to give
But I can never forgive the damage that you've done
(Damage that you've done)
This must be love
Shedaisy: I sank your bass boat (Not my bass boat, no, no, no)
So you'd have more time to spend with me
Rascal Flatts: I hocked your grandma's diamond earrings (AHHHHH!)
For the down payment on my SUV
Shedaisy: Fully loaded, heated seats, in hunter green-is this for me?
And I did it all for you
I did it all (I did it all) for you
This Christmas (This Christmas)
All your dreams (All your dreams)
Will come true
Ooooh....
I live on caffeine, Camu
Eagles and Airplanes
I decorate my lies with butterflies
That glimmer in the shimmering rain
They say you can't lose 'em all
But I'll give it a shot
I want more than enough
Yeah, I want more
I want more than enough
When love is all I got
The truth is so unkind
But I'm good when I'm out of sight
Best when I'm out of my mind
And don't know what you'll find
But I'm good when I'm out of sight
Best when I'm outta my mind
I'm afraid of fallin' upward
I'm afraid of my own age
I'm a paragon with an apron on
And I'm beautiful on an empty page
There layin' in the dresser drawer
Is a rusted ravished heart
And the piercing regrets
Yeah, they pierce me
All the piercing regrets
And faults starts
The truth is so unkind
But I'm good when I'm out of sight
Best when I'm out of my mind
And don't know what you'll find
But I'm good when I'm out of sight
Best when I'm out of my mind
I can be as strong as Morphine
I can lay my head down where I kneel
Sometimes I need a broken bone
To remind me how to feel
The truth is so unkind
But I'm good when I'm out of sight
Best when I'm out of my mind
And don't know what you'll find
But I'm good when I'm out of sight
Best when I'm out of my mind
Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah
Huh huh
I've been walking through the fields for hours
Blind to the wild of the wildflowers
Hovering above my own life
Like an apparition, yeah yeah yeah
I've been living on bread and water
Somebody's wife, mother, somebody's daughter
Even in the face in the mirror
No recognition
I feel my soul slipping out of my skin
Come clean in a pool of fire, jump in
Everybody needs a revival
Get up off your knees and dance
It's fundamental to our survival
Get hell bent on shaking that big white tent
Repent
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
All you need is a nagging hunger
Baby the bush is burning, I ain't getting any younger
Belly up and believe
Whatcha waiting for a revelation, yeah yeah
All it takes is a taste of the spirit
Like an addict gotta have it every time I get near it
Straight to the heart of the matter
No hesitation
No other high like liberation
Like liberation, yeah
Yeah, 'cause everybody needs a revival
Get up off your knees and dance
It's fundamental to our survival
Get hell bent on shaking that big white tent
Yeah, everybody needs a revival
Get up off your knees and dance
It's fundamental to our survival
Get hell bent on shaking that big white tent
Repent, yeah yeah yeah
Have I really lost my soul
If so, I don't know where it went
And if there's no other way back home
I guess I might as well repent
Oh oh oh oh
Come on repent
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Come on repent
(Have I really lost)
You gotta repent
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hey, hey
(Have I really lost my soul)
Oh, oh, oh
(Yeah, uh-huh, oh yeah)
Yeah-yeah, yeah
(Have I really lost my soul)
Come on, come on
(Get hell-bent)
I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear
You never listen when I talk
Maybe you'll listen when I walk
So I made my mind up and made a sandwich
And I didn't shed a tear
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behind
When you come home tonite
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
My Little Good-byes
Empty hangers by the closet door
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel
My Little Good-byes
I'm sure you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if ya wondering when you're gonna hear from me
Well take a real good look around boy
And it won't be hard to see
When you come home tonite
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
My Little Good-byes
Took your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the litter, but I took the cat
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR
My Little Good-byes
So cry to your mama and your sympathetic friends
And tell em, tell them how the story ends
Took the hourglass left the sand
Now you got time on your hands
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddah man
Change my voice on the machine
Or there'll be little goodbyes with every ring
Left the pictures and took the frames
I've got the umbrella, here comes the ra-in, yeah yeah yeah
Ra-in, yeah yeah yeah
He-ey, yeah yeah yeah
He-ey, yeah yeah yeah
