I'm walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
And all we know is touch and go
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love till it hurts or bleeds or fades in time
And I never saw you coming
And I'll never be the same
You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannon boom
Now all we know is don't let go
We are alone, just you and me
Up in your room and our slates are clean
Just twin fire signs, four blue eyes
So you were never a saint
And I love the shades are wrong
We learn to live with the pain
Mostly broken hearts
But this love is great and wild
And I never saw you coming
And I'll never be the same
This is a state of grace
This is the worthwhile fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right
These are the hands of fate
You're my Achilles' heel
This is the golden age of something good and right and real
And I never saw you coming
And I'll never be the same
I never saw you coming
And I'll never be the same
This is a state of grace
This is the worthwhile fight
Love is a ruthless game
I heard a song tonight on the radio
Another girl sings about a boy
She see his face in every space, every room
And I know that if I turn around you won't be there
If I close my eyes, will you be there?
I don't wanna lose your face
And I don't wanna wake up one day
And not remember what time erased
And I don't wanna turn around
'Cause I'm not scared of what love gave me and took away
And I don't wanna lose your face
I got a picture of you in my bedroom
And I hope it never falls
I hope I never lose that feeling
I used to get whenever you'd call
And now I wonder to myself
Who were you, where are you?
Were you ever here at all?
I don't wanna lose your face
And I don't wanna wake up one day
And not remember what time erased
And I don't wanna turn around
'Cause I'm not scared of what love gave me and took away
And I don't wanna lose your face
The girl in the song had it so good
I wish I could close my eyes and see you
I wish the sky had your face
And the oceans had your eyes
And the sunset had your lips
And I had you, oh, whoa, yeah
I don't wanna lose your face
I don't wanna wake up one day
And not remember what time erased
And I don't wanna turn around
'Cause I'm not scared of what love gave me and took away
And I don't wanna lose your face
Oh, no, no
I don't wanna lose your face
And I don't wanna turn around
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I bet you lie awake at night trying to make up your sweet mind
Wonderin' if you'll ever find just what you want
A hometown number one
Or a California loaded gun
But you'll only get one
That's what you thought
And here's what you got
I could be your favorite blue jeans
With the holes in the knees
In the bottom of the top drawer
I could be your little beauty queen
Just a little out of reach
Or the girl living next door
I'll be your angel giving up her wings
If that's what you need
I'd give everything to be your anything
Be your anything
If you want hard to get
If you want
All you have to do is let me know
If you want a bumpy ride
Or someone with a softer side
Either one will be alright
Just let me know
Cause this is how it goes
I could be your favorite blue jeans
With the holes in the knees
In the bottom of the top drawer
I could be your little beauty queen
Just a little out of reach
Or the girl living next door
I'll be your angel giving up her wings
If that's what you need
I'd give everything to be your anything
It's not like I'm giving up who i am for you
But with someone like you it's so easy to do
I could be your favorite blue jeans
With the holes in the knees
In the bottom of the top drawer
I could be your little beauty queen
Just a little out of reach
Or the girl living next door
I'll be your angel giving up her wings
If that's what you need
That's what you need
I could be your favorite blue jeans
With the holes in the knees
In the bottom of the top drawer
I could be your little beauty queen
Just a little out of reach
Or the girl living next door
I'll be your angel giving up her wings
If that's what you need
All this time I was wasting
Hoping you would come around
I've been giving out chances every time
And all you do is let me down
And it's taking me this long
Baby but I figured you out
And you're thinking we'll be fine again
But not this time around
You don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
Don't wanna hurt anymore
And you can say that you're sorry
But I don't believe you baby
Like I did before
You're not sorry, no, no, no, no
Looking so innocent
I might believe you if I didn't know
Could've loved you all my life
If you hadn't left me waiting in the cold
And you got your share of secrets
And I'm tired of being last to know
And now you're asking me to listen
Cause it's worked each time before
But you don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
Don't wanna hurt anymore
And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you baby
Like I did before
You're not sorry, no, no, oh
You're not sorry, no, no, oh
You had me falling for you honey
And it never would've gone away, no
You used to shine so bright
But I watched all of it fade
So you don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
There's nothing left to beg for
And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you baby
Like I did before
You're not sorry, no, no, oh
You're not sorry, no, no, oh
No, oh, no, oh, no oh
You wanna dance you really wanna let it go
You want it bad but this time they told you to go
You want it
You try it fast when you really should do it slow
You got it bad and it's time I told you no
You're on it
Bad it's true, but I don't wanna know
What you had or you did
So just let it go
Oh no!
You wanna laugh and you really wanna let them know
You're so relaxed and you really gonna let it show
You want it
Do you recall when we were two of a kind
But you chose your way, and I chose mine
You're on it
Bad it's true, but I don't wanna know
What you had or you did
So just let it go
Oh no!
Remote controlled but you got it all
Oh no!
You stand ten feet tall, cause you got it all
Oh no!
Remote controlled but you got it all and you got it all
But you got it all wrong!
We had a laugh, but it turned into a cough
We got along but now I wanna get off
You're on it
I was a kid when I did what you do
I put a lid on and thought that's it, I'm through
You're on it
Bad it's true, but I don't wanna know
What you had or you did
So just let it go
Oh no!
Remote controlled but you got it all
Oh no!
You stand ten feet tall, cause you got it all
Oh no!
Remote controlled but you got it all
Oh no!
You stand ten feet tall, cause you got it all
Oh no!
And when I say you lose it, you don't believe it at all
Oh no!
It's such a long way to fall, the writings on the wall
Oh no!
But when I said you'd lose it, I can't even recall
Oh no!
If it was the best of all your brain a bit too small
Because you got it all, you got it all, you got it all
Do you still have that dream,
that dream of you and me ,
the dream that got us this far,
that got us to where we are.
do you still want the same
as you used to ,
do you still want a me and you,

I can't believe you did it again
Walked by and took my heart with you
Why did you have to look so good?
Don't you know that I'm trying to hate you
Trying to have a dream without you in it
But how can I put out this fire
When you're the one who lit it
I can't wait for the day I stop pretending
That I'm really ok when I'm not
I want to know how it feels to be
Over you for real
Until I do
I'll keep writing songs about you
I've got a stack of papers so high
And it's all about you baby
Keep thinking maybe I
Can make sense of something crazy
Something I can't get out of my Head
I write your name I write your name
Then I tear it all to shreds
I can't wait for the day I stop pretending
That I'm really ok when I'm not
I want to know how it feels to be
Over you for real
Until I do
I'll keep writing songs about you
And if you ever change your mind
And want me back again
I hope these songs will remind me
Why I shouldn't let you in
I can't wait for the day I stop pretending
That I'm really ok cause I'm not
I want to know how it feels to be
Over you for real
Until I do
I'll just wait for the day
I stop pretending
That I'm really ok when I'm not
I wanna know how it feels to be over you for real
Till I do,
You walk in here with your guitar man
Shiny boots and your full on band
Smile on your face and a knife your hand
Singing songs you got memorized
With what ever talent money buys
So polished that it slips right through your hands
But don't ruin yourself I ain't your competition
Don't flatter yourself that was never my intention
I wanna talk about what you are I ain't
Let's talk about what you do that I can't
Let's talk about me and you and an empty room and who wins
Let's talk about what you did to get here
Let's talk about blood and sweat and tears
Let's talk about what you wanna be and who I've always been
I walk in here with a beat up case, the same guitar I've always played
And the words I wrote down on a page,
When I was 12 years old and small town raised
You tell the crowd you're payin dues, I've tell them this is what I do
And it's what I put my life into, as I breathe the smoke and cheap
perfume
They say life on music row is rough conditions
Oh, but the easy ride was never my ambition
Wanna talk about it what you are I ain't
Let's talk about what you do that I can't
Let's talk about me and you and an empty room and who wins
Let's talk about what you did to get here
Let's talk about blood and sweat and tears
Let's talk about what you wanna be and who I've always been
Let's talk about your child hood days
You were the prom queen, I was on this stage
So where's that crown gotten you these days
When it's me and you and the same damn games
So what have you got that I ain't
What do you do that I can't
Let's put me and you in an empty room and see who wins
Let's talk about what you did to get here
Let's talk about blood and sweat and tears
Let's talk about what you wanna be girl, and who I've always been
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
So may your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
May your days be merry and bright
What do you say, when you just know
That he's the one, and you wanna go fast
But he's taking it slow
And what do you do, when he's next to you
But he's a little bit shy
Well here's something you can try
Hey, hey what do you say
We go walking down the river all together
It's a warm May beautiful day
And I feel like I could
Talk to you forever
With the sun shining bright
It feels just like a day
When everything's gonna go just right
I know it will be a sweet memory
For you and me someday
What do you say?
What do you see, when you look in his eyes
There's something there
That he can't disguise
No matter how he trys
And what do you feel, when you know its real
And you can't sit still
If you don't own up will yeah
Hey, hey what do you say
We go walking down the river all together
It's a warm May beautiful day
And I feel like I could
Talk to you forever
With the sun shining bright
It feels just like a day
When everything's gonna go just right
I know it will be a sweet memory
For you and me someday
What do you say?
My imaginations, running away
Just dreaming about
What I want you to say
Hey, hey what do you say
We go walking down the river all together
It's a warm May beautiful day
And I feel like I could
Talk to you forever
With the sun shining bright
It feels just like a day
When everything's gonna go just right
I know it will be a sweet memory
For you and me someday
What do you say?
What do you say?
What do you say?
We used to walk along the street
When the porch lights were shining bright
Before I had somewhere to be
Back when we had all night
And we were happy
I do recall a good while back
We snuck into the circus
You threw your arms around my neck
Back when I deserved it
And we were happy
When it was good baby,
It was good baby
We showed 'um all up
No one could touch the way we
Laughed in the dark
Talking 'bout your daddy's farm
We were gonna buy someday
And we were happy
We used to watch the sun go down
On the boats in the water
That's sorta how I feel right now
And Goodbye's so much harder
'Cause we were happy
When it was good baby,
It was good baby
We showed 'um all up
No one could touch the way we
Laughed in the dark
Talking 'bout your daddy's farm
We were gonna buy someday
And we were happy
Oh, I hate those voices
Telling me I'm not in love anymore
But they don't give me choices
And that's what these tears are for
'Cause we were happy
We Were Happy
When it was good baby,
It was good baby
We showed 'um all up
No one could touch the way we
Laughed in the dark
Talking 'bout your daddy's farm
And you were gonna marry me
When we were happy
Yeah, We were happy
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
I never saw it coming
the look in your eyes, showed me no surprise
you walked me to the front door and said
I love you and I'd never break your heart
you were so perfect
you really lead me on
and gave me everything i ever wanted
(Chorus:)
Going out for dinner every night
Cuddling while were watching our favorite movies
going out to the football games
and then talking till sunrise
you gave me this and put me down
I really thought we would improve
but you were the one, the one
that i fell for
(Chorus)
You were the one
that lead me on
so here i go
i hope shes worth it
(Chorus)
Oh Oh Oh
You said the way my blue eyes shined
Put those Georgia stars to shame that night
I said, "That's a lie"
Just a boy in a Chevy truck
That had a tendency of gettin' stuck
On backroads at night
And I was right there beside him
All summer long
And then the time we woke up to find
That summer'd gone
But when you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think my favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
The moon like a spotlight on the lake
When you think happiness
I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest
And my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think of me
September saw a month of tears
And thankin' God that you weren't here
To see me like that
But in a box beneath my bed
Is a letter that you never read
From three summers back
It's hard not to find it all
A little bitter sweet
And lookin' back on all of that
It's nice to believe
When you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think my favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
The moon like a spotlight on the lake
When you think happiness
I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest
And my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think of me
And I'm back for the first time since then
I'm standin' on your street
And there's a letter left on your doorstep
And the first thing that you'll read
Is when you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think my favorite song
Some day you'll turn your radio on
I hope it takes you back to that place
When you think happiness
I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest
And my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think of me
Oh, think of me, mmm
You said the way my blue eyes shined
Put those Georgia stars to shame that night
I said, "That's a lie"
Do you remember the day I leaned up against your car?
And it started rolling down the street
You screamed and ran after it
Tried to open the door and it ran over your foot
And I was too busy laughing on the ground to see
It would take Brad Pitt to leave you
It takes five seconds to need you
And I'm mad at all the lovebirds
Cause they don't know to play our song
I wish that pretty girls couldn't see you
Wish that all the road's would lead you
Right to me
Cause that's where you belong
Til Brad Pitt Comes Along
Do you remember the time we watched Carrie
And you said it reminded you of me
And I threw the remote at you a
And you said "My point exactly"
Later on that night under the
Neon city lights you paid a homeless guy
To sing a song to me and
It would take Brad Pitt to leave you
It takes five seconds to need you
And I'm mad at all the lovebirds
Cause they don't know to play our song
I wish that pretty girls couldn't see you
Wish that all the road's would lead you
Right to me
Cause that's where you belong
Til Brad Pitt Comes Along
You call me unlucky cause I
Lose everything
But I swear I'd be careful with it
If you gave me a ring
It would take Brad Pitt to leave you
It takes five seconds to need you
And I'm mad at all the lovebirds
Cause they don't know to play our song
I wish that pretty girls couldn't see you
Wish that all the road's would lead you
Right to me
Cause that's where you belong
Til Brad Pitt Comes Along
Til Brad Pitt Comes Along
Woah Yeah Oh

hello??
Beneath the chandelier of stars and atmosphere
Tangled like the roots on the ground
The windows opened up
The wind is blowing and were both not making a sound
It’s like I’m melting on into you
Give me a reason why we should ever move
Tell me
You’ll never leave me
and I’m not crazy and
This is really happening
That this is really happening
Could this be better?
You write me letters
So you see me everyday
You tend to treat me like
My name is up in lights
It really blows me away
Lock me up in a dark room
And I still can’t take my eyes off you
Tell me
You’ll never leave me
and i’m not crazy and
This is really happening
That this is really happening
All those kisses up against your car
For all those wishes on planes
We thought were stars
Memories like photographs
Oh Baby,Here we are
Tell me
You’ll never leave me
and i’m not crazy and
Oh,This is really happening
That this is really happening
Oh,Oh,Baby
Tell me
You’ll always need me
That I drive you crazy
And this is really happening
Oh,that this is really happening
Tell me,Oh
You’ll always need me
(need me ,tell me)
(Baby)
That I drive you crazy
(Oh)
Walking downtown shuffling my feet
I try to dream my dreams above the concrete
Store windows, traveled for miles
But something I passed really caught my eye
It was cracked down the middle, permanent scars
But I fell in love with this here guitar
Nice to meet you, can I teach you
All I know, can you show me what you do
Where have you been
What have you seen
Who were you before you even knew me
Have you been played for endless hours
Or were you left in the corner
Or were you someone's best friend
This here guitar
It was my baby, anyone could see
I love the cracks, the curves, the hidden beauty
But I can't help wondering why
It came to me and where we'll say goodbye
The cracks down the middle
Can't see where they are
Since I fell in love with this here guitar
Nice to meet you, can I teach you
All I know, can you show me what you do
Where have you been
What have you seen
Who were you before you even knew me
Have you been played for endless hours
Or were you left in the corner
Or were you someone's best friend
This here guitar
Were you a present from a father to a son
Did he forget you
Or just play you 'til you came undone
Hey did some prima donna love you
'Til she got her fame and fortune
I won't do that to you
Nice to meet you, I can teach you
All I know, you can show me what you do
Where have you been
What have you seen
Who were you before you even knew me
And I played you for endless hours
Never left you in the corner
You're my one and only friend
Now I know where life lessons are
This here guitar
You're my guitar
I walked into a chair today
‘Cause I was thinking about you
Your face jumped right in my way
Like lately things do
Oh, baby can’t you see
The thought of you makes a mess of me
I walked into a chair today
‘Cause I was thinking about you and now I
I can’t walk straight, I can’t talk straight
I can’t think about anything but the way
It should be and it could be
And till you come around again I will be
Doing what I usually do
Thinking about you
I get lost when I drive around town
Thinking about your smile
I always end up on your side of town
And I don’t know why
There must be something under this hood
That’s got a mighty strong liking to you
I walked into a chair today
‘Cause I was thinking about you and lately
I can’t walk straight, I can’t talk straight
I can’t think about anything but the way
It should be and it could be
And till you come around again I will be
Doing what I usually do
Thinking about you
Your eyes are the color of the deep blue sea
The one that I go swimming in every time you look at me
I can’t walk straight, I can’t talk straight
I can’t think about anything but the way
It should be and it could be
And till you come around again I will be
Doing what I usually do
Thinking about you
I walked into a chair today
they don't think our love will last.
they say we're moving much to fast
just because our love is new.
doesn't mean it can't be true.
our love is young and so are we,
i love you and you love me,
but they don't believe us,
cause' they don't know us,
they don't know us we can see,
they won't listen to you and me,
instead of trying to change our plans,
why not give us a helping hand.
just like Juliette loved romeo,
sometimes others don't always know.
but they won't help us,
cause they don't know us.
chorus
why not give us a chance and see,
just how true our love can be,
they know you and they know me,
but they don't know us,
. (music turnaround)
they say we're young and love is blind,
we should give this some more time,
did they forget they were young like us,
all we ask is a little trust.
we love each other can't they see
isn't that the way it's supposed to be.
they know you --and they know me,
but they don' know us,
music intro
i hope soon your folks and mine,
will get together and take the time,
and get to know us,
really get to know us.
why not give us a chance ' and see
just how strong our love can be.
they know you, and they know me,
but they don't know us.
ooh woo a woo owho yeah
they don't know us that's for sure ,
we're not their little children anymore.
just because our love is new,
doesn't mean it can't be true
why not give us a chance and see,
how true love is suppose to be,
they know you and they know me,
but they don't know us..
yes they know you and they know me,
Should have been different but
It wasn't different, was it
Same old story, dear john,
And so long
Should have fit like a glove
Should have fit like a ring
Like a diamond ring
A token of true love
Should have all worked out
But it didn't
She should be here now
But she isn't
[Chorus:]
There's your trouble,
There's your trouble
You keep seeing double
With the wrong one
You can't see I love you,
You can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble
So now you're thinking 'bout
All you're missing how
Deep you're sinking,
Round and round and dragging down
Why don't you cash in your chips
Why don't you call it a loss
Not such a big loss,
Chalk it up better luck
Could have been true love
But it wasn't
It should all add up
But it doesn't
[Repeat chorus]
Should have all worked out
But it didn't
She should be here now
But she isn't
She acts like shes 5 years old
since its cold shes got her big coat on
I hear people laugh at her
i look up bored
and she cries and runs
We star throwing stuff at her and she tries to hide
this starts to get old
She hugs her legs
and we put her to sleep
im forced to take her home
And shes stupid to know why the trees change in the fall.
And i know that she is scared
of every little thing and all
She thinks snow whites house very near how dumb
but i know we had the worst day
ever today.
she starts acting like shes 13 and thinks everyone is mean
She starts crying
And i push her away
and cut her with my keys
and she starts to drive and drive until she found a town far enough away
And she sulks and walks and tries to forget all our names
And she know if shes ever going to finish school
And she knows shell never laugh
cause we shrunk and she grew
she dont know how lng itll take to feel okay
but she knows she had the wors day ever today
She had a bullying father
She thought she was getting stronger
Her mom beats up her little brother
inside and out hes more popular than she is
She grew up in an ugly house
and had no space to run
and she had the worst days with me
there was a video i found from back when we were three
she was trying to paint in the kitchen and she was talking to me
it was the age of teasing and bullying and throwing eggs at her window
And her dad was super dumb
and i was the most handsome boy
in the whole wide world
and now she knows why
all the trees change in the fall
and she knows i was never on her side
and always said she was wrong
and she hates me
for giving her the evil eyes
and making her feel like
she could shine
and i dont know if she knew
so im taking this chance to say
that i always have the worst days
He is sensible and so incredible
And all my single friends are jealous
He says everything I need to hear and it's like
I couldn't ask for anything better
He opens up my door and I get into his car
And he says, you look beautiful tonight
And I feel perfectly fine
But I've been screamin' and fightin'
And kissin' in the rain
And it's two a.m. and I'm cursin' your name
You're so in love that you act insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
He respects my space and never makes me wait
And he calls exactly when he says he will
He's close to my mother
Talks business with my father
He's charming and endearing, and I'm comfortable
But I've been screamin' and fightin'
And kissin' in the rain
And it's two a.m. and I'm cursin' your name
You're so in love that you act insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
He can't see the smile I'm fakin'
And my heart's not breakin'
'Cause I'm not feelin' anything at all
And you were wild and crazy
Just so frustrating, intoxicating, complicated
Got away by some mistake and now
I'll be screamin' and fightin'
And kissin' in the rain
It's two a.m. and I'm cursin' your name
I'm so in love that I acted insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
And that's the way I loved you
I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
People would say they're the lucky ones
I used to know my spot was next to you
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on
Oh, a simple complication
Miscommunications lead to fallout
So many things that I wish you knew
So many walls up, I can't break through
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know, is it killing you
Like it's killing me
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
When it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Next chapter
How'd we end up this way?
See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy
And you're doing your best to avoid me
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
But you held your pride like you should have held me
Oh I'm scared to see the ending
Why are we pretending this is nothing?
I'd tell you I miss you, but I don't know how
I've never heard silence quite this loud
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know, is it killing you
Like it's killing me
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
When it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
This is looking like a contest
Of who can act like they care less
But I liked it better when you were on my side
The battle's in your hands now
But I would lay my armor down
If you'd say you'd rather love then fight
So many things that you wish I knew
But the story of us might be ending soon
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know, is it killing you
Like it's killing me
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
When it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Now, now
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know, is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
And I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
'Cause we're going down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
I took a chance, I took a shot
And you might think I'm bulletproof but I'm not
You took a swing, I took it hard
And down here from the ground, I see who you are
I'm sick and tired of your attitude
I'm feeling like I don't know you
You tell me that you love me then you cut me down
And I need you like a heartbeat
But you know you got a mean streak
Makes me run for cover when you're around
And here's to you and your temper
Yes, I remember what you said last night
And I know that you see what you're doing to me
Tell me, why?
You could write a book on how
To ruin someone's perfect day
Well, I get so confused and frustrated
Forget what I'm trying to say, oh
I'm sick and tired of your reasons
I got no one to believe in
You tell me that you want me, then push me around
And I need you like a heartbeat
But you know you got a mean streak
Makes me run for cover when you're around
Here's to you and your temper
Yes, I remember what you said last night
And I know that you see what you're doing to me
Tell me, why?
Why do you have to make me feel small
So you can feel whole inside?
Why do you have to put down my dreams
So you're the only thing on my mind?
I'm sick and tired of your attitude
I'm feeling like I don't know you
You tell me that you want me then cut me down
I'm sick and tired of your reasons
I've got no one to believe in
You ask me for my love then you push me around
Here's to you and your temper
Yes, I remember what you said last night
And I know that you see what you're doing to me
Tell me, why? Why? Tell me, why?
I take a step back, let you go
I told you I'm not bulletproof
Now you know
"Sweet Tea And God's Graces"
Tire swings, summer dreams, honeysuckle on the breeze
With some County creek
Laying in the green grass, I was watching clouds pass
Baby, you were watching me
Cold barn struck bed, everything you said
Slowly educating me
I never had a lesson so sweet
You can get high on a first kiss
You can get by with sweet tea and God's graces
You can love like a sinner and lose like a winner
Nothing's shatterproof
You can crash and burn and come back someone new
And that's what I learned from you
Autumn rain, window pane, looking how the leaves change
Just like the two of us
Still got your laugh, your ghost, your jacket
Guess I loved you way too much
But I'm a little smarter, my heart's a little harder
But it's still soft enough to cry
Cause I remember those times
I remember.........
You can get high on a first kiss
You can get by with sweet tea and God's graces
You can love like a sinner and lose like a winner
Nothing's shatterproof
You can crash and burn and come back someone new
And that's what I learned from you
Saw you just the other day
All that I could think to say was,
"Hey, how have you been?"
You caught me with that old smile
Said, "It's really been a while,
And I still think about back when.."
We used to get high on the first kiss
We could get by with sweet tea and Jesus
And you can love like a sinner and lose like a winner
Nothing's shatterproof
You can crash and burn and now I'm someone new
And that's what I learned from you
Oh, that's what I learned from you
That's what I learned from you, oh you, oh
Tall, dark and super manly
Puts papers in his briefcase and drives away
To save the world or go to work
It's the same thing to me
He's got his mother's eyes, his father's ambition
I wonder if he knows how much that I miss him
I hang on every word you say
You'll smile and say "How are you?"
And I'll say, "Just fine"
I always forget to tell you I love you
I'll love you forever
I watched Superman fly away
You've got a busy day today
Go save the world
I'll be around
I watched Superman fly away
Come back, I'll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
When you come back down
Tall, dark and beautiful
He's complicated, he's irrational
But I hope someday he'll take me away
And save the day, yeah
Something in his deep brown eyes has me saying
He's not all bad like his reputation
And I can't hear one single word they say
And you'll leave, got places to be
And I'll be okay
I always forget to tell you I love you
I loved you from the very first day
I watched Superman fly away
You've got a busy day today
Go save the world
I'll be around
And I watched Superman fly away
Come back, I'll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
When you come back down
And I watch you fly around the world
And I hope you don't chase another girl
Don't forget, don't forget about me
I'm far away, but I'll never let you go
I'm lovestruck and looking out the window
Don't forget, don't forget where I'll be
Right here wishing the flowers were from you
Wishing the card was from you
Wishing the call was from you
'Cause I've loved you from the very first day
I watched Superman fly away
You've got a busy day today
Go save the world
I'll be around forever and ever
I watched Superman fly away
I swear, I'll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
When you come back down
I walk in the room there's a beautiful sunshine ray
Across the room
Then I hear the phone ring walk to it and I don't what to say
Hello, Good day
But what I do know, it that tonight is gonna be the night, when
Chorus:
He says I love you and I really care about you
When, He says he'll hold me in his arms when I'm afraid
When, I'll say, Oh, I'll say I love him too
And, I care about you, yeah this ain't no charade.
Then he'll drive me home listenin' to the radio
Then, He says he really loves me too and do anything
Oh, I walk through the door there's a beautiful moonlight shine
Across the room
I crawl into bed thinkin' what I did today
With him
But what I do know, is that, I love him too.
And the next time I see, him walking down the street (down the street)
I'll think about this time, that was as beautiful sunshine.
Chorus:
He says I love you and I care about you
Yeah, He says he'll hold in his arms when I'm afraid.
And I'll say, I love you too, yeah, I love you
Oh, I'll say, I care about you, yeah this aint no charade
Then he'll drive me home, listenin' to the radio
Then, He says, he really loves me and he'll do anything
Bridge:
I look in his brown eyes
And I see a surprise
It's like a present that you open
Oh, and do know oh do you know
What that surprise is?
It's love.
And the next time I see him walkin' down the streets
in his old white t-shirt, I'll always remember,
this time, that was a beautiful as sunshine.
Ohhh ohhh ohhh sunshine
Ohhh ohhh ohhh sunshiiine
Sunshine sun sun sunshine
Taylor Swift - “Still An Innocent” Lyrics
I guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your warpath
Lost your balance on a tight rope
Lost your mind trying to get it back
Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you
(Chorus)
Its alright
Just wait and see your string of lights is still bright
to me
Who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent (x2)
It’s some things you cant speak of
But tonight you live it all again
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now
If only you could sing what you know now then
Wasn't it easier in your firefly catching days
Everything out of reach
Someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful
Running wild til’ you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you
(Chorus)
Its alright just wait and see
your string of lights is still bright to me
Who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent
It’s okay
Life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent
Time turns flames to embers
You’ll have new Septembers
Everyone of us has messed up too
Lives change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to
Be brand new
Ohhhhhh
(Chorus)
It’s alright
Just wait and see
your string of lights is still bright to me
Who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent
You're still an innocent
It’s okay
Life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent
Lost your balance on a tight rope
Corey's eyes are like a jungle
He smiles, it's like the radio
He whispers songs into my window
In words that nobody knows
There's pretty girls on every corner
That watch him as he's walking home
Saying, does he know
Will you ever know?
You're beautiful, every little piece, love
Don't you know, you're really gonna be someone
Ask anyone
And when you find everything you looked for
I hope your life leads you back to my door
Oh, but if it don't, stay beautiful
Corey finds another way to be
The highlight of my day
I'm taking pictures with my mind
So I can save 'em for a rainy day
It's hard to make a conversation
When he's taking my breath away
I should say
'Hey, by the way'
You're beautiful, every little piece, love
Don't you know, you're really gonna be someone
Ask anyone
And when you find everything you looked for
I hope your life leads you back to my door
Oh, but if it don't, stay beautiful
If you and I are a story
That never gets told
If what you are is a daydream
I'll never get to hold, at least you'll know
You're beautiful, every little piece, love
Don't you know, you're really gonna be someone
Ask anyone
And when you find everything you looked for
I hope your life leads you back to my front door
Oh, but if it don't
Will you stay beautiful
A beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful
A beautiful, beautiful?
Oh, but if it don't
Stay beautiful
Stay beautiful
Oh,I remember when you look at me
I miss you so much oh baby
Youre so faraway from me
Oh just like a state of grace
God,Im so lost
Oh Im So lost without u
I am so lost without you baby
Youre my first love
And I Was yours
Goodbye is such a sweet word
Good bye baby whoaa fuck fuck fuck
With u I'd climb the highest mountain baby whoa
Dont wanna see your such a big ass
Im tired of those bullshit words baby
Just gonna fu-fu-fu-fuck it Oh
Now Im like Im On a state of grace
whoaaa
Baby,Ur just an oversmart
I know baby
The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I'm a house of cards
You say my name for the first time, baby, and I
Fall in love in an empty bar
And you stood there in front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Something that'll haunt me when you're not around
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
So reach out open handed
And lead me out to that floor
Well, I don't need more paper lanterns
Take me down, baby bring on the movie star
'Cause my heart is beating fast
And you are beautiful I could wait patiently
But I really wish you would
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Something that'll haunt me when you're not around
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
I run my fingers through your hair
And watch the lights go out
Just keep your beautiful eyes on me
Gonna strike this match tonight
Lead me up the staircase
Won't you whisper soft and slow
I'd love to hate it
But you make it like a fireworks show
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Something that'll haunt me when you're not around
'Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
Let's watch the tide chase the waves onto the sand
I wonder if a broken heart feel the warmth on my hand
Don't wonder how a piece of driftwood could see more through his lifetime
Let's walk away the past through the smokey black nights
I've seen a million things
spoke a million words
now i only want to speak to you
Waiting for the words
counting every bird
there's nothing i'd rather do
on smokey black nights
Still through the haze i can make out constellations
I'll make one of you and me as we sit in the sand
And i saw that sunset gleamin as my eyes went wild
Let's walk away the past through the smokey black nights
I've played a thousand songs
sang a thousand words
now i only want to sing to you
Waited on a wire
starin at the fire
there's nothing i'd rather do
on the smokey black nights
Yeah
I've walked a thousand miles
smiled a thousand smiles
Now I only smile when I'm with you
Waiting for the words
counting every bird
there's nothing i'd rather do
on the smokey black nights
So walk with me
As the sweet wind dances
I'm writing a song for you and me
It's strange to think the songs we used to sing
The smiles, the flowers, everything is gone
Yesterday I found out about you
Even now just looking at you feels wrong
You say that you'd take it all back, given one chance
It was a moment of weakness and you said yes
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice 'fore you let it all go
You shouldn've known that word
'Bout what you did with her'd get back to me
And I should've been there in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me
You can see that I've been crying
And baby you know all the right things to say
But do you honestly expect me to believe
We could ever be the same
You say that the past is the past, you need one chance
It was a moment of weakness and you said yes
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice 'fore you let it all go
You shouldn've known that word
'Bout what you did with her'd get back to me
And I should've been there in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me
I can't resist before you go tell me this
Was it worth it? Was she worth this?
No, no, no, no, no, no
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice 'fore you let it all go
You shouldn've known that word
'Bout what you did with her'd get back to me
And I should've been there in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet
Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue
Well, I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the boys I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you'll check up my Christmas list
Santa baby, I wanna yacht and really that's not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa honey, there's one more thing I really do need
The deed to a platinum mine
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
And I don't mean on the phone
I remember your bare feet down the hallway
I remember your little laugh
Race cars on the kitchen floor
Plastic dinosaurs, I love you to the moon and back
I remember your blue eyes looking into mine like we had our own secret club
I remember you dancing before bed time then jumping on me waking me up
I can still feel you hold my hand
Little man, from even that moment I knew
You fought it hard like an army guy
Remember I leaned in and whispered to you
Chorus:
Come on baby with me
We're gonna fly away from here
You were my best four years
I remember the drive home when the blind hope
Turned to crying and screaming, "Why?"
Flowers piled up in the worst way
No one knows what to say about a beautiful boy who died
And it's about to be Halloween
You could be anything you wanted if you were still here
I remember the last day when I kissed your face
I whispered in your ear
Come on baby with me
We're gonna fly away from here
Out of this curtained room in this hospital
We'll just disappear
Come on baby with me
We're gonna fly away from here
You were my best four years
What if I'm standing in your closet trying to talk to you?
What if I kept the hand me downs you won't grow into?
And what if I really thought some miracle would see us through?
But what if the miracle was even getting one moment with you
Come on baby with me
We're gonna fly away from here
Come on baby with me
We're gonna fly away from here
You were my best four years
I remember your bare feet down the hallway
It's 10am, I catch the morning train,
And there you are, you smile, with a seat you've saved,
Saying "hey, i've been waiting for ya".
We'd talk about our dreams, you'd talk 'bout everything,
We'd go so loud, but we don't care,
Cause all we care is that we're having so much fun.
You'd tell me 'bout your life, you'd learn a bit 'bout mine,
And just like that I swear it's like we've known each other our whole lives.
And this moment is perfect.
Train tracks grind still everyone can hear us.
Don't you dare be quiet.
This journey's ours, yeah this journey's ours.
Lets take the ride of our lives.
This is the moment where the chemistry happens,
Yeah that special connection.
These are the days of our lives.
These are the times you'll never forget.
Never regret as long as we ride here side by side.
We can speak, we can dream,
This is our time, you and me,
Lets have the ride of our lives.
As we watch the world outside the window past,
I?d pray, hoping that this moment lasts.
It?s hard not to laugh out loud baby when you crack a joke.
You?ve got me smiling, got me thinking that I?ve got it all.
You make a promise to me; promise this will be our tradition,
Cause every time we ride together it?s like stranger than fiction.
I don?t ever want this train ride to come to an end,
But when it does baby, we can do it all over again.
And the train?s coming to a stop,
I?m still so lost in you I can?t bare to get off.
You kiss me on the spot.
It was a long goodbye,
When you let me go,
I held onto you,
and you kissed me slow
It was burning bright,
We were burning bright
Mm mm mm
We were burning bright,
Our hearts were set on fire
That night, that night
Oh I never will forget
It was burning red, red, red
I'm trying to chase the feeling away
But it keeps on endlessly
Broken hearts they seem familiar,
But that doesn't mean that I'm okay
Oh, can you let me forget it?
But do I want to forget it?
No, no I don't, oh oh
We were burning bright,
Our hearts were set on fire
That night, that night
Oh I never will forget
It was burning red, red, red
We were burning bright,
Our hearts were set on fire
That night, that night
Oh I never will forget
It was burning red, red, red
It was red, red, red
Oh oh oh oh,
You're beautiful
And it was red
Oh oh oh yeah
I had a conversation with the mirror,
It ended up not having much to say,
It said today was for the lovers and believers,
I hate to tell you, it just ain't your day
So this is my rain song,
It's cold outside and I still love you,
Guess I was dead wrong,
You find out when there's clouds above you,
Finding it ain't worth losing you,
When it all comes down, it comes down to,
This lonely rain song,
You're on my mind and I still love you
I had some complications with the voices,
'Round and going 'round inside my mind,
I used to think this heart had lots of choices,
But they all lead to your doorstep every time
So this is my rain song,
It's cold outside and I still love you,
Guess I was dead wrong,
You find out when there's clouds above you,
Finding it ain't worth losing you,
When it all comes down, it comes down to,
This lonely rain song,
You're on my mind and I still love you
So this is my apology,
My words, my tears, are all of me,
Laid out in front of you,
Like the thought were true on a sunny afternoon,
This is a song for you
So this is my rain song,
It's cold outside and I still love you,
Guess I was dead wrong,
You find out when there's clouds above you,
Finding it ain't worth losing you,
When it all comes down, it comes down to,
This lonely rain song,
You're on my mind and I still love you.
I still love you
I had a conversation with the mirror,
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart?
Now, why would you wanna make the very first scar?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Maybe I should've seen the sign
Should've read the writing on the wall
And realized by the distance in your eyes
That I would be the one to fall
No matter what you say, I still can't believe
That you would walk away, it don't make sense to me
But why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart?
Now why would you wanna make the very first scar?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
It's not unbroken anymore
How do I get it back the way it was before?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart?
Now why would you wanna make the very first scar?
Why would you wanna break?
Why would you wanna break a?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart?
Now why would you wanna make the very first scar?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
If you love me then I love you
Swear by the freckles on the moon
And maybe this will be in love
I'd like to keep you till I'm old
If I can't at least I'll know
That baby, perfect have I loved
Do you remember stupid things we used to do
That September, stole me away from you
The time we got your truck stuck in the creek
Cuz baby roads weren't wild enough for you and me
Saying if you love me then I love you
Swear by the freckles on the moon
And maybe this will be in love
I'd like to keep you till I'm old
If I can't at least I'll know
That baby, perfect have I loved
Pleased to see you, down by the bridge we used to cross
I found you waiting, trying to get miles,
You would smile and I'd smile and tried so hard to forget
Starting little fires that I still haven't put out yet
If you love me then I love you
Swear by the freckles on the moon
And maybe this will be in love
I'd like to keep you till I'm old
If I can't at least I'll know that
Baby, perfect have I loved
Love was all we knew and faith was
Growing over line
Words were all we had and for one summer you were mine
Saying if you love me then I love you
Swear by the freckles on the moon
And maybe this will be in love
I'd like to keep you till I'm old
If I can't at least I'll know that
Elevator buttons and morning air
Stranger's silence makes me wanna take the stairs
If you were here, we'd laugh about their vacant stares
But right now, my time is theirs
Seems like there's always someone who disapproves
They'll judge it like they know about me and you
And the verdict comes from those with nothing else to do
The jury's out, but my choice is you
So don't you worry your pretty little mind
People throw rocks at things that shine
And life makes love look hard
The stakes are high, the water's rough, but this love is ours
You never know what people have up their sleeves
Ghosts from your past gonna jump out at me
Lurking in the shadows with their lip gloss smiles
But I don't care 'cause right now you're mine
And you'll say don't you worry your pretty little mind
People throw rocks at things that shine
And life makes love look hard
The stakes are high, the water's rough, but this love is ours
And it's not theirs to speculate if it's wrong and
Your hands are tough but they are where mine belong in
I'll fight their doubt and give you faith with this song for you
'Cause I love the gap between your teeth
And I love the riddles that you speak
And any snide remarks from my father about your tattoos will be ignored
'Cause my heart is yours
So don't you worry your pretty little mind
People throw rocks at things that shine
And life makes love look hard
And don't you worry your pretty little mind
People throw rocks at things that shine
But they can't take what's ours, they can't take what's ours
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says, ?Baby is something wrong??
I say, ?Nothing I was just thinking
How we don't have a song? and he says
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date man, I didn't kiss her and I should have
And when I got home, 'fore I said amen
Asking God if He could play it again
I was walking up the front porch steps
After everything that day
Had gone all wrong or been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway, well, on my way
To my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice all the roses
And the note that said
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date man, I didn't kiss her and I should have
And when I got home, 'fore I said amen
Asking God if He could play it again
I've heard every album, listened to the radio
Waited for something to come along
That was as good as our song
'Cause our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on his window
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
'Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date man, I didn't kiss him and I should have
And when I got home, 'fore I said amen
Asking God if He could play it again
Play it again, oh, yeah, oh, oh, yeah
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
And I wrote down our song
(Spoken):
My name's Taylor Swift
This is a cover song I'm gonna sing for you
By one of my favorite bands called Better Than Ezra
And its the song called Our Last Night
We were standing in an empty room
The moonlight was falling
You were holding my hand when the car pulled up for you
And I could have spent a life with you
But those days were over
You were calling my name when your face faded from view
And wasn't it you who told me the sun would always chase the day
And wasn't it you who told me:
Angels fly in the air tonight
Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?
And stars collide and the air's alive
Or was it just like those promises that you made
On our last night?
I remember waking up with you
The days doing nothing
You meant more to me then than I think you ever knew.
But you were gonna be a doctor, movie star
A poet at a Nobel seminar
I hope the world never tore that out of you
Cause wasn't it you who told me the sun would always chase the day
Yeah wasn't it you who told me:
Angels fly in the air tonight
Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?
And stars collide and the air's alive
Or was it just like those promises that you made
On our last night?
And what ever happened to the things you loved
And the songs we played, and the indian days
Whatever happened to the things you gave away?
Like Harold and Maude and singing
I was waving as you drove away
The sunlight was falling
You were writing backwards in a dusty window pane
Angels fly in the air tonight
and wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?
oh oh yeah
And stars collide and the air's alive
Or was it just like those promises that you made
On our last night?
on our last night
Standing on the border
Looking out into the great unknown
I can feel my heart beating faster as I step out on my own
There's a new horizon and the promise of favorable wind
I'm heading out tonight, traveling light
I'm gonna start all over again
And buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go
Cause I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can
Gonna climb the mountain
And look the eagle in the eye
I won't let fear clip my wings and tell me how high I can fly
How could I have ever believed
That love had to be so blind
When freedom was waiting, down at the station
All I had to do was make up my mind
And buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go
Cause I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can
Well, I have walked through the fire
And crawled on my knees through the valley of the shadow of doubt
Then the truth came shining like a light on me and now I can see my way out
Buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go
Cause I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know
Buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
I'm gonna have my breakfast with some pink champagne
Gonna sail the ocean, gonna spread my wings
Look at you
Look at me
Look at who
We could be
I wanna know
Who you are
What you want
From the start
And every time I look at you I can hardly say a thing
My head starts to spin
And it hits me then
I love you
And every time you look at me I could go crazy but I
don't say it but I won't
Cause I'd rather be alone
Than lose you
And all I really wanna do is be next to you
But I'm too tired to fight
And I could tell you now
But baby never mind
All the time
Everyday
There's nothing I can do baby
To make you go away
So look at you
And look at me
And think of who
We could be
And every time I look at you I can hardly say a thing
My head starts to spin
And it hits me then
I love you
And every time you look at me I could go crazy but I
don't say it but I won't
Cause I'd rather be alone
Than lose you
And all I really wanna do is be next to you
But I'm too tired to fight
And I could tell you now
But baby never mind
All I really wanna say is I need you, babe
But how could you understand
What happens if you turn away
And everything turns blue and gray
And I just wish I told you never mind
And I could tell you now
But baby never mind
Yeaah
Oh yeah
I could tell you now but never mind
Yeah
Oh yeah yeah
I need you now
Read letters that I wrote on the wall
And the message that I left when I called
I need you now
Words I said drowned out by the rain
Waiting there for you but you never came
My world’s a little colder now
But I’m keeping warm somehow
So here you are at my window
Guess nobody told you
I don’t need don’t need you
And I waited so frustrated
Who’s gonna hold you
I don’t need you don’t need you now
I need you now
Words I heard you whisper to me
We were walking down a one-way street
You need me now
That’s what you’ve been telling my friends
That I’ve come too far to go back there again
My heart my mind and number have changed
You might as well forget my name
So here you are at my window
Guess nobody told you
I don’t need you don’t need you
And I waited so frustrated
Who’s gonna hold you
I don’t need you don’t need you now
I need you now
Red letters that I wrote on the wall
And the message that I left when I called
So here you are at my window
Guess nobody told you
I don’t need you don’t need you
And I waited so frustrated
So who’s gonna hold you
I don’t need you now
And I don’t know where you are
I don’t wonder where you are
I don’t dream about you cause I don’t need you now
I don’t dream about the way
That I never heard you say
“I need you I need you”
I don’t need you now
Don’t need you
Verse 1:
I don't want to break your heart
But you just keep on pushing me
I want to walk away
But you have ways of stopping me
I don't know what to say
Its just that I really want to leave
Cause your holding me back, holding me back from the life of luxury
Chorus:
So let me go my own way
Opposite from you
I don't care what you have to say
My hearts not in the mood
Though I really love you
You just keep hurting me
You say tell you what to do to make me happy
The only way is for you to let me leave
Verse 2:
When ever we go out
I'm just a friend to you
But when we at home
You want to call me your boo
An I hate the fact
That when she comes around you make me go away
Its like you can't make up your mind
This is all I have to say
Chorus
Bridge:
You say I can count on you
But you just playing games
An I just let it slide
When call her name
You don't get it
I'm trying so hard not to walk away
But see now I'm tired of your two faces
So I'm just going to go my own way
Chorus:
So let me go my own way ( My own way)
Opposite from you ( From you, from you, from you)
I don't care what you have to say
My hearts not in the mood ( Not in the mood)
Though I really love you
You just keep hurting me ( You just keep hurting me)
You say tell you what to do to make me happy
The only way is for you to let me leave ( Let me leave)
So let me go my own way
Opposite from you
I don't care what you have to say
My hearts not in the mood
Though I really love you
You just keep hurting me
You say tell you what to do to make me happy
The only way is for you to let me leave
Let me leave, an go my own way
Let me leave, an go my own way
Let me leave, an go my own way
I know we've got a lot to say
Between now and forever
But I'd be a game if you would play
And my dear you get better
All throughout the day
You smile and walk away
All I can think to do
Is follow you
If you leave I'll be crawling back for more
If you need love I'll be standing at your door
I'll be sick inside if baby you'd be my cure
Wherever you think I am tonight
Just know we're miles from a heartbreak
Beacause in the blink of a pretty brown eye
I'll be right where you are baby
Sometime along the way you take my breath away
Distracted by he view
I fall right into you
And if you ever leave I'll be crawling back for more
And if you ever need love I'll be standing at your door
I'll be sick inside if baby you would be my cure
They say I need to see all the people out there waiting
But you take one look at me
And I know the mistake I'd be making
Cuz if you ever leave I'll be crawling back for more
And if you ever need love I'm standing at your door
I'll be sick inside if baby you be my cure

This is
My SNL monologue
She said, 'I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights'
'And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love
And our momma smiled and rolled their eyes'
And said, 'Oh, my, my, my'
Take me back to the house in the backyard trees
Said you would beat me up, you were bigger then me
You never did, you never did
Take me back when our world was one lot bad
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I, oh, my, my, my, my
Well, I was sixteen when suddenly
I wasn't that little girl you used to see
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
They never believed we really fall in love
And our momma smiled and rolled their eyes
And said, 'Oh, my, my, my'
Take me back to the creek that's reaching dark
Two A.M, riding in your truck
Yet all I need is here next to me
Take me back to the time we had our very first fight
Slamming our doors instead of kissing goodnight
You stayed outside 'til the morning light, oh, my, my, my, my
A few years ago when comin' around
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town
Then you looked at me, got down on one knee
Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our whole town came and our mommas cried
You said, 'I do' and I did too
Take me home when we met so many years before
Where we rock our babies on the very front porch
After all this time, you and I
When I'll be 87 you'll be 89
I'll still look at you like the stars that shine
There's a little girl in this little town
With a little too much heart to go around
Live forever, never say never
You can do better, that's what she says
Mama named her Lucky on a starlit night
A rabbit foot in her pocket, she dances in spite of
The fact that she's different and yet she's the same
And she says do do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Lucky you, lucky you
Do do do do do do do do
She sings her little song
She walks along a little
Pathway headed for the skies
Left her travels, lives they unravel
Mind over matter, that's what she says
Mama named her Lucky on a starlit night
A rabbit foot in her pocket, she dances in spite of
The fact that she's different and yet she's the same
And she says do do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do do do
Lucky you, lucky you, lucky you
do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Maybe she'll sing you do do do do
Maybe she'll bring you into the skies
Honey, she'll love you
Funny how some view
Angels above you, aint so far away
Mama named her Lucky on a starlit night
A rabbit foot in her pocket, she dances in spite of
The fact that she's different and yet she's the same
And she says do do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Love They Haven't Thought Of Yet
Written: Swift,Taylor
I want it all to appear before my eyes when he smiles
Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t think Romeo would be my kind of guy
I want a love that’s sweeter than roses
And for me this is how it’s gonna be
Like there’s a fairytale guy
And he whispers sweet lullabies
And the music plays from nowhere
As we dance in the pale moonlight
With candles and fireflies all night
Everybody thinks about love
I want love they haven’t thought of yet
Here on the couch with a box of chocolates that I bought myself
I’ll wait it out but sometimes my patience just needs a little help
It’s what you get when your heartstrings are so tied
I don’t regret it ‘cause it needs to be perfect
Like there’s a fairytale guy
And he whispers sweet lullabies
And the music plays from nowhere
As we dance in the pale moonlight
With candles and fireflies all night
Everybody thinks about love
I want love they haven’t thought of yet
I want my own little storybook ending
We’ll make it up as we go
There’s a fairytale guy
And he whispers sweet lullabies
And the music plays from nowhere
As we dance in the pale moonlight
With candles and fireflies all night
Everybody thinks about love
I want love they haven’t thought of yet
I got a lying smile I never put out for you
Cuz I guess I never felt like I really needed to
And they say little girls have big dreams
And nothing in the world was going to come between me
and you
And it was a long time coming
I waited half my life just to find someone like you
I spent a long time finding out
Love hangs around after you walk out
Not knowing, it’d be a long time going
They say it’s better to have lost than never to have
loved at all
And I say whoever said that didn’t have to far to fall
And they say little girls are so naïve
That wasn’t how it was supposed to be
With me and you
And it was a long time coming
I waited half my life just to find someone like you
I spent a long time finding out
love hangs around after you walk out
Not knowing, it’d be a long time going
I burned my bridges, had sleepless nights
Washed my sins on the neon lights
And I’m still not over you
And it was a long time coming
I waited half my life just to find someone like you
I spent a long time finding all
The things around after you walk out
Not knowing, it would be a long time going
A long time going
And it would be a long time, long time going
I still remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild
We were the kings and the queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives
Would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age
Long live the walls we crashed through
While the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders, one day we will be remembered
I said, remember this feeling
I passed the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
Wishing for right now
We are the kings and the queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screaming, this is absurd
'Cause for a moment a band of thieves
In ripped-up jeans got to rule the world
Long live the walls we crashed through
While the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders, one day we will be remembered
Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break or fall
And you take a moment
Promise me this
That you'll stand by me forever
But if God forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children someday
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how I hope they shine
Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
And I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid
Singing, long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
And long, long live the look on your face
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby, do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
Merry Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you", I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
A crowded room and friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A girl undercover but you tore her apart
Maybe this year, maybe this year
I'll give it to someone special
'Cause last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
And last Christmas
And this year won't be anything like
Anything like
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
And this year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
To the left, to the left.
Everythin' you own in a box to the left.
In my closet, that's my stuff.
If i bought it, please don't touch.
Keep talkin' that mess.
That's fine, but could you walk an' talk at the same time?
An' it's my name that's on that tag,
So come in with your bag, let me call you a cab.
Standin' in the front yard, tellin' me how I'm such a fool.
Talkin' 'bout...
How I'm never gonna find a man like you, it's got me twisted.
You must not know 'bout me. You must not know 'bout me.
I could have another you in a minute.
Matter of fact, he'll be here in a minute, baby.
You must not know 'bout me. You must not know 'bout me.
I could have another you by tomarrow.
Don't you ever for a second get to thinkin' you're irreplaceable.
So go ahead, get gone, call up that chick an' see if she's home!
Oops, I bet you thought i didn't know.
What did you think i was puttin' you out for?
It's cuz you were untrue, rollin' her aroun' in a truck that i bought you!
Baby drop them keys, hurry up before your taxi leaves.
Standin' in the front yard, tellin' me how I'm such a fool.
Talkin' 'bout...
How I'm never gonna find a man like you, it's got me twisted.
You must not know 'bout me. You must not know 'bout me.
I could have another you in a minute.
Matter of fact, he'll be here in a minute, baby.
You must not know 'bout me. You must not know 'bout me.
I could have another you by tomarrow.
She can't see the way your eyes will light up when you smile
She never noticed how you stop and stare whenever she walks by
And you can't see me wanting you the way you want her
But you are everything to me
And I just want to show you, she don't even know you
She's never gonna love you like I want to
And you just see right through me but if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible, yeah
There's a fire inside of you that can't help but shine through
But she's never gonna see the light, no matter what you do
And all I think about is how to make you think of me
And everything that we could be
And I just want show you, she don't even know you
She's never gonna love you like I want to
And you just see right through me but if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible
Like shadows in the faded light, oh, we're invisible
I just wanna open your eyes and make you realize
And I just want to show you, she don't even know you
Baby, let me love you, let me want you
You just see right through me but if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful, miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible, oh, yeah
I guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your warpath
Lost your balance on a tightrope
Lost your mind tryin' to get it back
Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days?
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you?
It's alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent, you're still an innocent
Did some things you can't speak of
But at night you live it all again
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now
If only you had seen what you know now then
Wasn't it easier in your firefly catchin' days?
And everything out of reach, someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful runnin' wild 'til you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you?
It's alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent
It's okay, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent
Time turns flames to embers, you'll have new Septembers
Everyone of us has messed up too
Minds change like the weather, I hope you remember
Today is never too late to be brand new
It's alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent
It's okay, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent, you're still an innocent
Lost your balance on a tightrope
I loved you for a little, a little while
I think you know that!
It would have worked for a little,
Except for that thing you did
It's not like you to be here
When you said you wouldn't
Chorus:
But in the pouring rain,
You changed everything,
You changed the tune!
In the middle of the game,
You changed everything,
You changed the rules!
It's not like we could forget something quickly,
Except in the pouring rain.
It kills me to say this,
It really does, it kills my heart!
But I might still love you,
Or is it me just falling apart.
But it's not like me to end something
Then change my mind!
Chorus:
But in the pouring rain,
You changed everything,
You changed the tune!
In the middle of the game,
You changed everything,
You changed the rules!
And it's not like we could forget something quickly,
Except in the pouring rain.
Oh, am I
winning by losing
All I told myself I would be losing!
But in the pouring rain, can you feel my pain?
My tear drops are falling down from the sky!
In the pouring rain, I can feel myself
I wonder who you love tonight.
In the pouring rain,
In the pouring rain,
Oh, in the pouring rain!
In the pouring rain,
You changed everything,
Friday night beneath the stars
In a field behind your yard
You and I are painting pictures in the sky
And sometimes we don't say a thing
Just listen to the crickets sing
Everything I need is right here by my side
And I know everything about you
I don't wanna live without you
I'm only up when you're not down
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground
It's like no matter what I do
Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I'm only me when I'm with you
Just a small town boy and girl
Living in the crazy world
Trying to figure out what is and isn't true
And I don't try to hide my tears
The secrets, all my deepest fears
Through it all nobody gets me like you do
And you know everything about me
You say that you can't live without me
I'm only up when you're not down
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground
It's like no matter what I do
Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I'm only me when I'm with you
When I?m with anybody else
It?s so hard to be myself
And only you can tell
That I'm only up when you're not down
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground
It's like no matter what I do
Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I?m only me
Who I wanna be
Well, I?m only me when I?m with you
Throwing pennies at the fountain
When you're standing on a mountain
It's kinda hard to aim
Like the trees we cut our names in
There must be an explanation
Guess it didn't get enough rain
I need reasons why you're leaving
Well, I guess I wished on a plane
That I thought was a star
I guess what you wrote on the paper
Wasn't written from your heart
Could've sworn you said you loved me
I guess I heard you wrong
And I guess I wished on a plane
That I thought it was a star
Driving off into the deep end
Honestly believe you'd be there
When I jumped in
I guess it ain't your territory
We had the perfect love story, except the ending
Nothing comes true when it comes to you
Well, I guess I wished on a plane
That I thought was a star
I guess what you wrote on the paper
Wasn't written in your heart
Could've sworn you said you loved me
I guess I heard you wrong
And I guess I wished on a plane
That I thought was a star
The night was so cloudy
It's not my fault
I just couldn't see
Well I guess I wished on a plane
That I thought it was a star
I guess what you wrote on the paper
Wasn't written in your heart
Could've sworn you said you loved me
I guess I heard you wrong
And I guess I wished on a plane
That I thought was a star
Throwing pennies at the fountain
When you're standing on a mountain
I like my music loud
I like my windows down
So I can scream
I like my trucks a little
Bigger than the rest
So I can see
Don’t try me
Don’t fight me
You be you and I’ll be me
They say I’ve always known
What I wanted
My friends and enemies
Will tell you it’s true
You will find out
I always get it
I know what I want
And it ain’t you
Your mum and daddy’s walls
Are covered up in pictures of you
You never met a mirror
That you didn't look again into
So sorry, don’t worry
I’m sure there are so many girls
Who love you like you do
They say I’ve always known
What I wanted, it’s true
My friends and enemies
Will tell you it’s true
You will find out
I always get it
I know what I want
And it ain’t you
And it ain’t you oh
Oh baby, don’t persuade me
I know that you ain’t used to no
So let me say it real slow
They say I’ve always known
What I wanted, it’s true
My friends and enemies
Will tell you it’s true
You will find out
I always get it
I get what I want
And they say I’ve always known
What I wanted
My friends and enemies
Will tell you it’s true
And you’ll will find out
I always get it
I know what I want
Should have been different but
It wasn't different, was it
Same old story, dear john,
And so long
Should have fit like a glove
Should have fit like a ring
Like a diamond ring
A token of true love
Should have all worked out
But it didn't
She should be here now
But she isn't
[Chorus:]
There's your trouble,
There's your trouble
You keep seeing double
With the wrong one
You can't see I love you,
You can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble
So now you're thinking 'bout
All you're missing how
Deep you're sinking,
Round and round and dragging down
Why don't you cash in your chips
Why don't you call it a loss
Not such a big loss,
Chalk it up better luck
Could have been true love
But it wasn't
It should all add up
But it doesn't
[Repeat chorus]
Should have all worked out
But it didn't
She should be here now
But she isn't
Wish I had concentrated
They said love was complicated
But it's something I just fell into
And it was overrated
But just look what I created
I came out alive, but I'm black and blue
Before you ask me if I'm all right
Think about what I had to do, yeah
Wake up and smell the break-up
Fix my heart, put on my make-up
Another mess I didn't plan
And I bet you thought you beat me
Wish you could only see
I got an 'I Heart Question Mark'
Written on the back of my hand
I'd be fine if you just walked by
But you had to talk about why
You were wrong and I was right
But I can't believe you made me sit at home
Cry like a baby
Wait right by the phone every night
And now you ask about you and I
There's no you and I
Remember what you put me through
I had to
Wake up and smell the break-up
Fix my heart, put on my make-up
Another mess I didn't plan
And I bet you thought you beat me
Wish you could only see
I got an 'I Heart Question Mark'
Written on the back of my hand
And when you're home all alone at night
You still wonder why
You took everything I had away
But I haven't thought about you and I
There's no you and I
And I know someday you will
Wake up and smell the break-up
Realize that we won't make-up
It didn't go the way you planned
And you'll know you didn't beat me
When you look down and see
I got an I Heart Question Mark
Written on the back of my hand
Written on the back of my hand
An I Heart Question Mark
I think of you every single evening
As I lay awake at night.
I try to think; try to walk away with you...me in
And I say:
Chorus:
Honey baby don't do anything crazy around us,
Say that everything will be fine!
Oh, honey baby, oh,
How can you blame me,
When I say I wanna make you mine?
Cause everybody else in the world is driving me crazy,
Except you, honey baby!
Flying high, I can see his smiling,
As we walk down by the drives.
Take my hand, take my breath away,
Cause you make me feel like flying!
Chorus:
Honey baby don't do anything crazy around us,
Say that everything will be fine!
Oh, honey baby, oh,
How can you blame me,
When I say I wanna make you mine?
Cause everybody else in the world is driving me crazy,
Except you, honey baby!
Oh, you are everything I'll ever need
Oh, you are everything I wanna be!
Drive me crazy, have me baby,
All I really wanna say is:
Chorus:
Honey baby don't do anything crazy around us,
Say that everything will be fine!
Oh, honey baby, oh,
How can you blame me,
When I say I wanna make you mine?
Cause everybody else in the world is driving me crazy,
Dolly Parton cover
Here you come again
Just when I've begun to get myself together
You waltz right in the door
Just like you've done before
And wrap my heart 'round your little finger
Here you come again
Just when I'm about to make it work without you
You look into my eyes
And light those dreamy eyes
And pretty soon I'm wonderin'
How I came to doubt you
All you gotta do
Is smile that smile
And there go all my defenses
Just leave it up to you
And in a little while
You're messin' up my mind
And fillin' up my senses
Here you come again
Lookin' better than a body
Has a right to
And shakin' me up so
That all I really know
Is here you come again
All you gotta do
Is smile that smile
And there go all my defenses
Just leave it up to you
And in a little while
You're messin' up my mind
And fillin' up my senses
Here you come again
Lookin' better than a body
Has a right to
And shakin' me up so
That all I really know
Is here you come again
here I go
and here you come again
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark, and it's all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake
Oh, I'm holding my breath
Won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all I wanted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now, I'm haunted
Stood there and watched you walk away
From everything we had
But I still mean every word I said to you
He would try to take away my pain
And he just might make me smile
But the whole time I'm wishing he was you instead
Oh, I'm holding my breath
Won't see you again
Something keeps me holding on to nothing
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all I wanted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now, I'm haunted
I know, I know
I just know
You're not gone
You can't be gone, no
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
Won't finish what you started
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't go back, I'm haunted
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
Never ever thought I'd see it break
It would’ve been nice to see you coming
But that would’ve ruined the surprise
It would’ve been nice to have a picture perfect world
But then the truth would hurt my eyes
It would’ve been good for you to be there
And every time you always would
Everything seems to have a picture perfect time
And nothing seems to be a blur
It’s hard to see a picture drop before it hits the
ground
It’s nice to know you're here and you're helping me
down
But you were always there when I needed
You would always see me clearly
And you were never looking for a thank you
I’m saying one for you
Would’ve been cool to never fall down
But then I never would’ve seen
The power isn't with the picture perfect person
You told me better things to come from in between
It’s hard to see a picture drop before it hits the
ground
It’s nice to know you're here and you're helping me
down
But you were always there when I needed
You would always see me clearly
And you were never looking for a thank you
I’m saying one, saying one, saying one for you
You, you
It would’ve been nice to see you coming
But that would’ve ruined the surprise
It would’ve been nice to have a picture perfect world
But then the truth would hurt my eyes
But you were always there when I needed
You would always see me clearly
And you were never looking for a thank you
I’m saying one for you
I’m saying one for you
Someone struck a match against the night
All I could see was you and I
I was captivated
A perfect little dream inside my head
And then reality crept in and erased it
For a while I thought that I could hold you
But you were just a temporary high
Firefly you drew me to you
Your beauty shines and
Lights up the sky
And you don’t know it
Do you
I wish I could keep you
Firefly, firefly
Something So beautiful and free
Was As never meant to be
Caged in
I thought I had you in my hand
I tried to catch you
But I can’t chase the wind
And every time I reach out to touch you
I remind myself you were meant to fly
Firefly you drew me to you
Your beauty shines and
Lights up the sky
And you don’t know it
Do you
I wish I could keep you
Firefly, firefly
I’d like to think
I’d be all that you wanted
But not even that is enough
Firefly you drew me to you
Your beauty shines and
Lights up the sky
And you don’t know it
Do you
I wish I could keep you
I wish I could keep you
Firefly
You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
And you say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybody's way
It's your freshman year and you're gonna be here
For the next four years in this town
Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say
"You know, I haven't seen you around before"
'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen feeling like there's nothing to figure out
Well, count to ten, take it in
This is life before you know who you're gonna be
Fifteen
You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail
And soon enough you're best friends
Laughing at the other girls who think they're so cool
We'll be outta here as soon as we can
And then you're on your very first date and he's got a car
And you're feeling like flying
And you're momma's waiting up and you're thinking he's the one
And you're dancing 'round your room when the night ends
When the night ends
'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
When you're fifteen and your first kiss
Makes your head spin 'round
But in your life you'll do things greater than
Dating the boy on the football team
But I didn't know it at fifteen
When all you wanted was to be wanted
Wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now
Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday
But I realized some bigger dreams of mine
And Abigail gave everything she had to a boy
Who changed his mind and we both cried
'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen, don't forget to look before you fall
I've found time can heal most anything
And you just might find who you're supposed to be
I didn't know who I was supposed to be at fifteen
Your very first day
Take a deep breath girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors
Isn't it funny how many times we can say,
We drawn the line, cross it out, turn the page,
And moved on
That's what we thought
But here I am in the same old car,
Having myself another same old brown-eyed bar
Uh oh, uh oh,
I won't tell nobody
I won't tell my friends
We'll just drive down this road till the one we're on ends
And we'll tell each other things like I need you
You and me
Baby this is what we do
I may see
There are people you just come back to
So fall back on me
Fall back on you
You always let someone come in between
Your talking round the truth and never say what we mean
Look at all this wasted time
I won't tell nobody
I won't tell my friend
We'll just drive down this road and pray it doesn't end
And we'll tell each other things, like I love you
You and me
Baby this is what we do
I may see
There are people who you come back to
So fall back on me,
Fall back on you
Maybe we'll last
Maybe we won't
Maybe we'll stop talking and I'll haunt you like a ghost
But just, baby, get along with me
You and me
Baby this is what we do
I may see
There are people that you come back too
Fall back on me
Baby I'll fall back on you
Fall back on me baby,
Baby I'll fall back on you
Fall back on you
Everybody's waiting
Everybody's watching
Even when you're sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
The tricky thing
Is yesterday we were just children
Playing soldiers
Just pretending
Dreaming dreams with happy endings
In backyards, winning battles with our wooden swords
But now we've stepped into a cruel world
Where everybody stands and keeps score
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard
Every lesson forms a new scar
They never thought you'd make it this far
But turn around (turn around), oh they've surrounded you
It's a showdown (showdown) and nobody comes to save you now
But you've got something they don't
Yeah you've got something they don't
You've just gotta keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes
Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night goes dark
Keep your eyes open
(Keep your eyes open [4x])
Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
[Taylor]
I use to think that love was for dreamers,
"Love at first sight" I never believed it,
Had my head on tight, I lived in the real world,
But that was until I met you.
Now everything is changed.
[Ed]
Yesterday I was drinking my sorrows away,
On the edge of forever storing my heart away,
On the verge of letting my heart go stray.
And that's when I met you.
And now everything is changed.
[BRIDGE]
[Taylor]
Oh darling,
You look like your soul is lost.
What could've happened to make you feel so low?
Don't let the liquor ease your hurt.
Don't let your heart go cold.
[Ed]
Oh darling,
Don't worry, I'll be just fine.
What's a pretty girl like you doing in a place like this?
If I weren't drinking then I'd be crying,
And I think that's something we both rather miss.
[Both]
But I guess that's just how the cookie crumbles,
You give your all and watch as your heart tumbles
Down and down until you can't feel anymore.
[CHORUS]
[Ed]
That's the thing about love,
That's the reason why I'll never fall again,
It hurts when it's supposed to make you make you feel good.
[Taylor]
Well if that's what love is,
Then I don't ever wanna try it out,
But something tells me I should.
Even though we've only met each other,
We'll work it out together until everything is changed.
Turn your dial to 93.7
Broadway acts like he's 11
Self-proclaimed, self
Worse mistake ever to land in Michigan
I'm just a singer of country songs
Just trying to play guitar and not do no wrong
But if you listen to just one thing I say
You should turn me 93 on
Broadway's Electric Barnyard
I sing a song called Tim McGraw
Request it and they'll play it all day long
I sing in stations all day long
But there's nothin like when you're on
The Electric Barnyard
Daisy's from a trailer park in St. Louis
Growin' up not wearin' any shoes
Prettiest hillbilly girl you see all day
Growin' up the other trailer park girls
Couldn't hide their jealousy
Cuz she had the only phone for miles
Now she uses it as a DJ
So you should turn me 93 on
Broadway's Electric Barnyard
I sing a song called Tim McGraw
Request it and they'll play it all day long
I sing in stations all day long
But there's nothin like when you're on
Now that he's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in his hair, hey, hey
He acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
He listens like spring and he talks like June, hey,
But tell me did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all
faded?
And that heaven is overrated
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?
But now he's back from that soul vacation
Tracing his way through the constellation, hey, hey
He checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's time to grow, hey, hey
But now he's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that he might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the in light
of day?
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind?
Was it everything you wanted to find?
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance
five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had and... me
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along in the light
of day?
And head back toward the Milky Way
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance,
five-hour phone conversation?
Here in my mind, the sky looks the same, on every day you loved me
When we started home, it started to rain, you put your coat around me
We stood there in the road, and you held me so close
But did you ever let go
Down came the rain, lightning and thunder
We tried in vain, to hold on to each other
The winds of change, blew you away from me
Right here right now, I feel it on my skin
The bitter sting of what we could've been
Just when our love was like a burning flame
Down came the rain
And through the window, I see her with you
I'm soaked to the skin, you're warm and dry
I guess the storm, is over for you
But look at the tears here in my eyes
I just stood there like a ghost
As you held her so close
And as I let you go
Down came the rain, lightning and thunder
We tried in vain, to hold on to each other
The winds of change, blew you away from me
Love like this, changes who you are
Every kiss you gave me is a scar
Just when our love was like a burning flame
Down came the rain
All I need is to move on fast
But all I want is to have you back
And it just keeps falling
Down came the rain, lightning and thunder
We tried in vain, to hold on to each other
The winds of change, blew you away from me
Right here right now, I feel it on my skin
The bitter sting of what we could've been
Just when our love was like a burning flame
Down came the rain
She walks to school
With her arms crossed
It’s just another day
At 10 o clock she hears this screaming
Then finally she sees them
It’s scary how things change
And I saw the story on the news
I saw the footage from the roof
I sat down and cried
Didn’t she call you
Didn’t she need you bad enough
Was there some reason
I'm not aware of
Did you not write it down
Just one more thing to do
Where were you
And didn’t she pray too
He kissed his wife good bye
And took the earliest flight
So he could be home that night
To put his kids to sleep
Down the aisle
Three men walked and said
We’re here to die for our God
He stood up and said that’s funny
Cause my God died for me
I put the magazine down
I read his words out loud
I sat down and cried
Didn’t he call you
Didn’t he need you bad enough
Was there some reason
I'm not aware of
Did you not write it down
Just one more thing to do
Where were you
And didn’t he pray too
The taxis were full up
On the very day of
They rode 100 floors up
Just to come back down
They never thought they’d see the day
That the tower's up in flames
There was nothing left to say
When it all came down
And didn’t they call you
Didn’t they need you bad enough
Was there some reason
I'm not aware of
Did you not write it down
Just one more thing to do
Where were you
Where were you
And didn’t they pray too oh
I walk to school
And I wear a cross
I’m counting
I’m a laid back
T-shirt, blue jean, mood ring
Kinda girl
Hey yeah what’s the word on you
Lay low I’m a mission rebel
Angel devil
little left of the middle
Sometimes I get temper mental
But here I am an open book,
Turn the page it’s all the rage
Get a look on the inside
Oh, what you get is what you see
Baby you hold the key
To the diary of me
I’m poetry, complicated
Simply stated
Hey yeah baby how about you
I was born free
I’m a cell phone hippie
Are you with me?
When I mess up I don’t get up
I just get down yeah
But here I am an open book
Turn the page it’s all the rage
Get a look on the inside
Oh what you get is what you see
Baby you hold the key
To the diary of me
It’s raining on Sunday
There’s nothing on TV
Yesterday was lonely
You’re the only one who gets me
My mind is like an island
Drifting through the ocean
I can’t stop thinking about you
I bet you’re thinking of me too
Well here I am an open book
Turn the page it’s all the rage
Get a look on the inside
Oh what you get is what you see
Baby you hold the key
To the diary of me
Yeah here I am an open book
Turn the page it’s all the rage
Get a look on the inside
Oh what you get is what you see
Baby you hold the key
He said, "I got me a nice new apartment
In a city, wouldn't you have hated that?
I'm getting by with a broken heart you left me with."
He hangs up the phone and she whispers back,
Missing you like this is such sweet sorrow
Won't you come back to me?
I'll be here, today and here tomorrow
In dark blue Tennessee
He was lying when he said he moved to L.A.
He's just hiding out on the other side of town
With his head in his hands and she's just 7 miles away
He's staring out the window and puts her picture down saying,
Missing you like this is such sweet sorrow
Won't you come back to me?
I'll be here, today and here tomorrow
In dark blue Tennessee
She almost called him on the night that he wrote
These simple words on his goodbye note
Missing you like this is such sweet sorrow
Won't you come back to me?
I'll be here, today and here tomorrow
In dark blue Tennessee
I’ve been counting days and
I’ve been being patient about
A little thing called love
Crossing all my fingers
Letting my heart linger
Trying to get some help from up above
And I don’t wanna jinx my luck
I’ve left it all behind me
And I’ve been hoping everyday
That someday you will find me
So I cross my heart and hope for you
Knock on the wood and broke the moon
I pray for you and me and hope I’m right
And I’m wearing out that ole wishing well
You never know if time will tell
I cross my heart and hope for you tonight, tonight
Dreaming of you lately
I’ve been thinking maybe
There is something I can do
Cause I’ve been on the verge of
Running round in circles
Baby all I want is you
And I don’t wanna jinx my luck
I’ve left it all behind me
And I’ve been hoping everyday
That someday you will find me
So I cross my heart and hope for you
Knock on the wood and broke the moon
I pray for you and me and hope I’m right
And I’m wearing out that ole wishing well
You never know if time will tell
I cross my heart and hope for you tonight
Do you believe in miracles?
Please tell me if you’ve seen one
I’d like to know
Just where to go
Because I think I need one
So I cross my heart and hope for you
Knock on the wood and broke the moon
I pray for you and me and hope I’m right
And I’m wearing out that ole wishing well
You never know if time will tell
I cross my heart and hope for you tonight, tonight
I’ll cross my heart and hope for you
Knock on the wood and broke the moon
I pray for you and me and hope I’m right
And I’m wearing out that ole wishing well
You never know if time is gonna tell
I've never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go
Till you open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before
I was trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
Then you came along
And you changed everything
You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier
Watched from a distance as you
Made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know
How that would feel
And you made it so real
You showed me something that I couldn't see
You opened my eyes and you made me believe
You lift my feet off the ground'
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier,
ohh......
Baby, you showed me what living is for
I don't want to hide anymore..... more....
You lift my feet off the ground,
spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier
You have a way of coming easily to me
And when you take, you take the very best of me
So I start a fight 'cause I need to feel somethin'
And you do what you want 'cause I'm not what you wanted
Oh, what a shame
What a rainy ending given to a perfect day
Just walk away
No use defending words that you will never say
And now that I'm sittin' here thinkin' it through
I've never been anywhere cold as you
You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray
And I stood there lovin' you and washed them all away
And you come away with a great little story
Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you
Oh, what a shame
What a rainy ending given to a perfect day
Just walk away
No use defending words that you will never say
And now that I'm sittin' here thinkin' it through
I've never been anywhere cold as you
You never did give a damn thing, honey
But I cried, cried for you
And I know you wouldn't have told nobody
If I died, died for you, died for you
Oh, what a shame
What a rainy ending give to a perfect day
Every smile you fake is so condescending
Counted all the scars you made
Now that I'm sittin her thinkin' it through
I drive around this town
In a Mustang with the top down
And six running horses under my hood
Well that’s good enough for me
Don’t need the real thing
That’s just another thing
For me to try to tame
Don’t know if I could
It might just break me
I thought there for a little while
Every sunset I’d be a riding off with him
Snap buttons on a denim shirt
Blue jeans and a little dirt
That’s the closest you’ll see me
Feet hanging out a pickup truck
Crazy and a little rough
Running free
That’s the closest to a cowboy
You’ll see me
Before I met him
I was so sane and grounded
Before he taught me how to lie
And crawl out the window
I learned the dirt roads
And I got my heart broken
Cause that cowboy taught me how to cry
And how to let go
I thought there for a little while
Every sunset I’d be a riding off with him
Snap buttons on a denim shirt
Blue jeans and a little dirt
That’s the closest you’ll see me
Feet hanging out a pickup truck
Crazy and a little rough
Running free
That’s the closest to a cowboy
You’ll see me
It was all a little
Wonderful and strange
But I’ll never look
At a sunset the same night
Snap buttons on a denim shirt
Blue jeans and a little dirt
That’s the closest you’ll see me
Feet hanging out a pickup truck
Crazy and a little rough
Running free
Sitting fishing by the river bank
Swimming in the water tank
That’s the closest you’ll see me
Feet hanging out a pickup truck
Crazy and a little rough
Running free
That’s the closest to a cowboy
What if ribbons and bows didn't mean a thing?
Would the song still survive without 5 golden rings?
Would you still wanna kiss without mistletoe?
What would happen if God never let it snow?
What would happen if Christmas Carols told a lie?
Tell me what would you find?
You'd say that today holds something special
Something holy and not superficial
So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives
It's something we all try to ignore
And put a wreath up on your door
So here's something you should know that is for sure
Christmas must be something more
What if angels did not pay attention to
All the things that we wish they would always do?
What if happiness came in a cardboard box?
Then I'd think there was something we all forgot
What would happen if presents all went away?
Tell me, what would you find?
You'd say that today holds something special
Something holy and not superficial
So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives
It's something we all try to ignore
And put a wreath up on your door
So here's something you should know that is for sure
Christmas must be something more
We get so caught up in all of it
Business and relationships, 100 mile an hour lives
And it's this time of year and everybody's here
It seems the last thing on your mind
It's that the day holds something special
Something holy and not superficial
So here's to Jesus Christ who saved our lives
It's something we all try to ignore
And put a wreath up on your door
But here's something you should know that is for sure
Christmas must be something
Christmas must be something
Christmas must be something more
There's gotta be more
And it's a sad picture, the final blow hits you
Somebody else gets what you wanted again
You know it's all the same, another time and place
Repeating history and you?re getting sick of it
But I believe in whatever you do
And I'll do anything to see it through
Because these things will change, can you feel it now?
These walls that they put up to hold us back will fall down
It's a revolution, the time will come for us to finally win
We'll sing hallelujah!
We'll sing hallelujah! Oh
So we've been outnumbered, raided and now cornered
It's hard to fight when the fight ain't fair
We're getting stronger now from things they never found
They might be bigger but we're faster and never scared
You can walk away and say we don't need this
But there's something in your eyes says we can beat this
'Cause these things will change, can you feel it now?
These walls that they put up to hold us back will fall down
It's a revolution, the time will come for us to finally win
We'll sing hallelujah!
We'll sing hallelujah! Oh
Tonight we standed on our knees
To fight for what we worked for all these years
And the battle was long, it's the fight of our lives
Will we stand up champions tonight?
It was the night things changed, can you see it now?
These walls that they put up to hold us back fell down
It's a revolution, throw your hands up, 'cause we never gave in
We'll sing hallelujah!
We sang hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
I had to catch my breath
When I saw you there across the room
Holdin her hand
I’d have never guessed
That starting over would look so good on you
But here I am
Still believing there might come a day
We’ll pick up where we left off
And by the way
Your eyes are dancing
I’ll say the chances of that
Are getting slim
And by the way
My hearts still breaking
It’s going take it a while
To love again
So many things that I forgot to say
By the way
I should’ve let you know
All the way’s you made me feel alive
I guess it’s too late
So I’ll just get my coat
And make my way into this breezy night
Give you one last wave
Maybe you’ll drop what you’re doing
And come over here and say
I’m looking good
And by the way
Your eyes are dancing
I’ll say the chances of that
Are getting slim
And by the way
My hearts still breaking
It’s going take it a while
To love again
So many things that I forgot to say
By the way
You still look amazing
And I must have been crazy
To let you get away
By the way
If you ever wondered
Still got the same old number
Just in case
I still miss you
And I still love you
By the way
Well, I saw the things you were doing at the VMAs
And when I got that video award, you took the mic away
Now, I'll try to call security with every step I take
And nothing will even stop with all the music that I ever make
Don't think you're gonna win this time
'Cause you better believe that you're not what you do
I'll get ya! (yeah)
I'll get ya! (yeah)
And when I do, Kanye you'll be busted
I don't wanna be mean to you
But you better believe me when I tell you that
You are never what you do
You're busted. (Busted!)
Yeah, everybody makes mistakes
But, this is how it's gonna be until you apologize on the VMAs
Emily comes home from school,
grabs onto her daddy's hand,
he says "baby girl what's wrong with you?"
she says "please don't make me go back there again"
She said "I wish there was some way
to make them stop it"
so he drives down to
that principle's ofice and says
"I didn't bring her up
so they could cut her down
I didn't bring her here
so they could shut her out
I live my whole damn life
to see that little girl's smile
so why are tears pouring down
that sweet face?
she wasn't brought up that way"
Emily's home late again
he sees that boy drive away
oh, but something different this time,
she doesn't have too much to say
she said "he tried but
there's just some things I won't do"
and through the tears
she said "I couldn't do that to you"
and he said
"I didn't bring you up
so he could wear
you down
take that innocent heart
and turn it inside out
I live my whole damn life
to see my little girl's smile
so don't let nobody take that away,
you weren't brought up that way"
The phone rings on a rainy night
says "it's Officer Tate"
he said "sir, there's been an accident,
you better come down here right away,
a drunken driver missed an overpass,
and Emily, she's fading fast"
he says "God,I didn't bring her up
to watch them lay her down
nearly killed me the day
they put her
momma in the ground
only thing that kept me alive,
was that little girl's smile
so please don't take that away,
I won't be easy taking her today,
she wasn't brought up that way"
He stands over the hospital bed
Here you are now, fresh from your wars
Back from the edge of time
And all that you were, stripped to the bone
I thought you'Âd want to know
When you feel the world is crashing
All around your feet
Come running headlong into my arms
Breathless
I'll never judge you
I can only love you
Come now running headlong into my arms
Breathless
Lay down your guns, too weak to run
Nothing can harm you here
Your precious heart, broken and scarred
Somehow you made it through
I only ask that you won't go again
When you feel the world is crashing
All around your feet
Come running headlong into my arms
Breathless
I'll never judge you
I can only love you
Come now running headlong into my arms
Breathless, oh, breathless
So glad to see you smiling
So good to hear your laugh
I think that you've found you
Even missed yourself
I'm only asking this because
I think that truth be told
Oh, you'll never go again
Again
When you feel the world is crashing
All around your feet
Come running headlong into my arms
Breathless
I'll never judge you
I can only love you
Come now running headlong into my arms
I see your face in my mind as I drive away
'Cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way
People are people and sometimes we change our minds
But it's killing me to see you go after all this time
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Music starts playin' like the end of a sad movie
It's the kinda ending you don't really wanna see
'Cause it's tragedy and it'll only bring you down
Now I don't know what to be without you around
And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand
And I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to
Never wanted this, never want to see you hurt
Every little bump in the road I tried to swerve
People are people and sometimes it doesn't work out
Nothing we say is gonna save us from the fall out
And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand
And I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to
It's two a.m., feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know it's not easy, easy for me
It's two a.m., feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know this ain't easy, easy for me
And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me, oh
I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I live down the street in a broken down house
And a car up on blocks in the driveway
The moment we meet, there was never a doubt
That we won’t forget this Sunday
It starts with a smile and a walk in miles
And it all leads to this - our first kiss
All my friends are saying
Girl, what are you thinking?
You’re better off, you’re better off without him
Find yourself another
Girl, that boy is trouble
You’re better off, you’re better off
They can talk forever, they just don’t know better
We drive around town in a rusty old truck
Somehow it feels like we’re flying
Don’t wanna come down
But they make it so tough
Just everyone we know is trying
To push us apart hide it down in our hearts
And they get what they want cause you're gone
All my friends are saying
Girl, why are you crying?
You’re better off, you’re better off without him
Find yourself another
Girl, that boy is trouble
You’re better off, you’re better off
They can talk forever, they just don’t know better
You come to my door
In the pouring rain
We know what we don’t have to say
You hand me a rose and a note that says
We don’t have to do things their way
All my friends are saying
Girl, what are you thinking?
You’re better off, you’re better off without him
Find yourself another
Girl, that boy is trouble
You’re better off, you’re better off
I think its strange that you think I'm funny
Cause he never did
But I've been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a wednesday
In a cafe
Your beautiful eyes
stare right into my eyes
and sometimes
I think of you late at night
I don't know why
I wanna be somewhere where you are
I wanna be where
You're here
Your eyes are looking into mine
So baby make me fly
My heart has never felt this way before
I'm looking through your
I'm looking through your eyes
I wake up, I'm alive
In only a little while, I cry
'Cause you're my lullaby
So baby come hold me tight
'cause I, I
I wanna be everything you need
I wanna be where
You're here
Your eyes are looking into mine
So baby make me fly
My heart has never felt this way before
I'm looking through your
I'm looking through your eyes
Just as long as your mine
I'll be your everything tonight.
Let me love you
kiss you
baby let me miss you
Let me see your
Dream about
Dream about
Dream about your eyes
Eyes, eyes, eyes
I like the way you want me
Every night for so long baby
I like the way you needed me
Every time things got rocky
I was believing in you
Was I mistaken do you mean
Do you mean what you say
When you say our love could last forever
(Chorus)
But I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow
I like the way you'd hold me
Every night for so long baby
I like the way you'd sing to me
Every time things got rocky
I was believing in you
Was I mistaken do you say
Do you say what you mean
When you say our love could last forever
(Chorus)
Cause I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow
(Bridge)
You would run around and leave me on forever
While I stay at home still thinking we're together
I wanted our love to last forever
(Chorus)
But I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow
Angelina’s got a pretty face
And really long brown hair
Lives somewhere in some wide open space
I’ve never been there
I guess some people come and purpose she
But I don’t cause
I have always been a bit reckless
And I am not your typical princess
I’m fine just a bit of a mess
And I’m not perfect you could say
I wasn’t brought up that way
Just watched Stephen run across the field
Watched him catch the ball
He’s got everything you’d wanna be
He’s funny, dark and tall
Watch him run across to Angelina
But I won’t cause
I have always been a bit reckless
And I am not your typical princess
I’m fine just a bit of a mess
And I’m not perfect you could say
I wasn’t brought up that way
Stardom pushed across the line
Tripped over my two feet hey oh yeah
But ain’t it funny how
It all comes out
Isn’t life sweet?
I have always been a bit reckless
And I am not your typical princess
I’m fine just a bit of a mess
And I’m not perfect you could say
I have always been a bit reckless
And I am not your typical princess
I’m fine just a bit of a mess
And I’m not, I’m not oh
And I’m not perfect you could say
American boy, living life as it goes
Sittin' on the fence posts
Living in the lie
American boy, living in the real world
Trying just to get the girl
Trying to survive
Chorus:
The simple things in life are always new
growing up on Sam Hill avenue
Mama makes her cookies and daddy's just
the greatest living hero that ever was
Nothing in the world can ever once destroy
the hope of an american boy
Living off of bar tips, trying for relationships
looking for the love
Suddenly rise, an american beauty
suddenly he cheats, sent from above
Chorus:
The simple things in life are always new
growing up on Sam Hill avenue
Mama makes her cookies and daddy's just
the greatest living hero that ever was
Nothing in the world can ever once destroy
the dream of an american boy
American boy, raising little babies
hearing daddy maybe, I'll be like you
Suddenly life, seems just like a new dawn
that's grown up, american boy
Chorus:
The simple things in life are always new
growing up on Grandview avenue
Mama makes her cookies and daddy's just
the greatest living hero that ever was
Nothing in the world will ever once destroy
No, nothing in the world will ever once destroy
Sometimes I wonder
How its gonna feel
Will my first love be true and real
Will I be ready when
My heart starts to fall
What will I do when my love comes to call
And my daddy tells me
That I light up his world
Everyday he says "Darlin,
You're my best girl"
He tried to teach me
From the very start
The meaning of love
So nobody breaks my heart
Will my love come in a bowl of fire?
Will it be filled with hope and desire?
Will my love come in the pourin' rain?
Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for the boy?
Am I ready for love?
For love
I know I'm not a little
Girl anymore
Cuz I'm feeling things
I've never felt before
Sweet sensations
And anticipations
Calling commotion
To my emotions
And I hear the words
My daddy says to me
He said "be true to yourself
And keep your spirit free
And love will find you
One way or another
Be good to yourself
And be good to each other"
Will my love come in a bowl of fire?
Will it be filled with hope and desire?
Will my love come in the pourin' rain?
Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for love?
Its a run around the world
And its moving so fast
Though I wanna find
A love thats gonna last
A love so strong
That it can withstand
The weight of the world
In the palm of its hand
Will my love come in a bowl of fire?
Will it be filled with hope and desire?
Will my love come in the pourin' rain?
Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for this game?
Am I ready for the kiss?
Am i ready for the stars?
Am I ready for the bliss?
I wake up, I stretch out
I wonder what you’re doing right now
Yeah, I slept in my make-up again
Tell myself I must be crazy
Thinking about him
I find myself something decent to wear
Take the towel out of my hair
About that time, you called me
And I’m reminded
Without you I’d be
A stranger in an all night diner
Waiting for a love to find her
Lonely like a harbor light that's never seen a boat
Like a line in an old love letter
No one ever wrote
I go to work, work all day
I'm a walking tape recorder
of everything you say
Walk to the car, dig out my keys
Start thinking if
You were with anyone but me
I'd be a stranger in an all night diner
Waiting for a love to find her
Lonely like a harbor that's never seen a boat
Just a line in an old love letter
No one ever wrote
There you are
On the street
Just standing there
Waiting on me I
I show you my new shoes
You say you love them
Baby without you
I’d be a stranger in an all night diner
Waiting for a love to find her
Lonely like a harbor that's never seen a boat
Just a line in an old love letter
No one ever wrote
I wake up, I stretch out
