The rain came down,
You followed your heart.
It took you away
And I hope that you found shelter on your own.
I could never blame you,
How could you have known
The storms I held inside?
I'm sorry for the rain I gave you.
I'm sorry for my tears of confusion.
And the pain I claim
Is all my own.
So sorry for the rain.
So sorry for the rain.
So many miles I put between us.
So many answers I'll never find,
Cause theres so much I could give you.
Still I hide.
You tell me, I decieved you,
But you will never know
The love that I denied.
I'm sorry for the rain I gave you.
I'm sorry for my tears of confusion.
And the pain I claim
Is all my own.
So sorry for the rain.
So sorry for the rain,
And the dark clouds from me
Before I found you.
I'm sorry for the rain I gave you.
I said, I'm sorry for my tears of confusion.
And the pain I claim,
Is all my own.
So sorry for the rain.
If you ever had the time
Would you try to make it fine
If your promises were real
Then maybe love is what I'd feel
But you seem to be so sad
Like a fairytale gone bad
And I don't know what to say
But I can't keep playing games
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
So I stayed alone tonight
Hoping things might turn out right
Wonder if you feel the same
Maybe I'm as much to blame
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
As the candle burns away
I want you another day
Reading letters that you've sent
Well is it consciences you meant
If I stay with you tonight
Though I know it won't be right
If I turn the other way
There'll be nothing else to say
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Or walk away, or turn away
I can stay now, I can stay now
Those were the days
When we had childish dreams
We'd run through the house
Chasing our cares
away
Turn on the sprinklers
We'd roll in the evening grass
Laughing until we cried
Chorus:
And I love the lovely years
No worries, no fears
Oh, what a great
life
This is the best time
Holding our child all day
It gives me a smile
and mends
every tear
in me
And I love the lovely years
First words and steps
are here
Oh, what a great life
And when we're old
we'll sit and repeat ourselves
telling our favorite stories
And we'll love the lovely years
remembering all the years
of such a great life
And we'll love the lovely days
They'll never fade away
At the edge of the world is a big tin wall
Put it there when I was a child
Trying to define - explain - infinity
Chorus
At the edge of the world
At the edge of the world
At the edge of the world love is dangerous
Nowhere to turn - front, side, back, around
Nowhere to fall but into the arms of infinity
At the edge of the world
At the edge of the world
Understand what you can not see
Won't you please take a picture for me?
Alone on the edge I am wandering
Trying to see over the side
Tell me, will I see you there
Dangling and reaching your hand to me?
At the edge of the world
At the edge of the world
At the edge of the world
Could you be the one,
to make me fall?
I am always running,
will you follow?
Catch me if you dare.
Tame me, and I'll never go.
And all I ask
is that you love me.
And all I dream
is that you'll love me.
And should you ever cry,
I'll drink your tears.
I would kill your enemies,
walk into a burning house to save you, yeah.
And all I ask
is that you love me.
And all I dream
is that you'll love me.
Oh, to dream.
And all I ask
is that you love me.
And all I dream
is that you'll love me.
You can take me away from my sorrow
but you can't take away my scars
I stand in the middle of the highway
playing chicken with the cars
It's not that I'm destructive I
just want to feel your pain
If there was any way I could have known
I would trip and fall away from you
If there was anything I could have done
to stay in love with you - with you
I wish I could say to you what you are to me
but I know it would make you sad
You are too good to be my lover
but you've been the greatest dad
I ever had
You made my life so lovely I
just had to mess it up
If there was any way I could have known
I would trip and fall away from you
If there was anything I could have done
to stay in love with you - with you
If I knew I'd do it twice just to make sure that
I did it right
If there was any way I could have known
I would always need to be alone
If there was anything I could have done
to stay in love with you
I'd be in love with you
Hey child up and go
-Big world is out there waiting for us to
live in every day
Outside you will find
there is love all around you
-Takes you, makes you wanna' say
That it's a beautiful life
and it's a beautiful world
and it's a beautiful time
to be here, to be here, to be here
The sky's blue
-just us two
Side by side we'll see the world
that surrounds us
-Hey, seize the day
Each road - every mile's a photograph in motion
to astound us, carry us away
into a beautiful life
'Cause it's a beautiful world
and it's a beautiful time
to be here, to be here
Leave all your cares behind you
The sun is rising
Turn around -it's right in front of you
and it's a beautiful life
and it's a beautiful time
You know, I only shake when
- ever you stand right
over me like a
hungry buzzard above my head
Are you hoping I'm really dead, well...
Better shut your mouth
Hold you belly tight
I'm not serving you
anymore
Chorus:
Every time you come to me
you always have your hand out
And every time you give to me
it's never something I, I, oh I ever need
You say - I never show you my gratitude - well
Thank you so much for
nothing I ever wanted
How did you know?
You must never listen
My what a lovely rope
looks the perfect size
But don't ya' think that it makes me look
too young to die?
Every time you come to me
there's always one condition
And every time you come to me
you always want me to, to bleed, bleed, bleed
Your generosity kills me
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
And every time you give to me
it's never one single thing I
could ever want or need
I don't need - I don't need
I don't want
What you say you're just giving away
'cause I know nothing's ever
Can you tell me
Why have I come?
Why am I in Chicago?
I just wanted to kiss the bride,
I didn't think I would be seeing you
Chorus:
And I had to laugh
You were shaking my hand
as if we'd never met and I
had to cry
'Cause the tears were too wet
and my eyes were too full
knowing I was forgettable
Did it ever hit you to call - no
phones in your Chicago?
There's nothing that I need to convey, just
maybe a small "hello" from LA
And I had to laugh
You were searching your head
for the right thing to say and I
had to cry
'Cause the tears were too wet
and my eyes were too full
knowing I was forgettable
I can recall every face that I have ever kissed
How did I fall on your "Miss Miscellaneous" list?
And I had to cry
There was no other way to express all my joy,
and I
had to laugh
When I thought of my fate
it was all I could do
Knowing I had escaped
You came up, once again
Seems you're the topic of
Every single conversation
I was the one, once again
Making apologies, all in your defence
Just give her time.
Chorus:
It's all right if you fall
You are human after all
But it hurts when you land
On my life i'm not your
Jesus christ
You show up when you need
Make no apologies
Lay your world upon my shoulders
Hey, what a friend you have in me
You give me all your sin
Take my soul and go
Time after time
It's all right if you fall
You are human after all
But it hurts when you land
On my life i'm not your
Jesus christ
Save yourself
Save yourself
Forsake me
It's all right if you fall
You are human after all
But it hurts when you land
On my life i'm not your
L is for the way you look at me.
O is for the only one I see.
V is very, very extraordinary.
E is even more than anyone that you adore can.
Love is all that I can give to you,
Love is more than just a game for two.
Two in love can make it.
Take my heart and please don't break it,
Love was made for me and you.
L is for the way you look at me.
O is for the only one I see.
V is very, very extraordinary.
E is even more than anyone that you adore can.
Love is all that I can give to you,
Love is more than just a game for two.
Two in love can make it.
Take my heart and please don't break it,
Love was made for me and you.
(That's almost true)
She won't let go of him
She won't let us begin
And now I face Rianna
But Rianna won't let me in
She says, “It's all worthwhile”...
Faking her famous smile
To hide the sad Rianna
‘cause Rianna won't let me in
I thought I'd found another lonely girl
Misunderstood, hoping to love...hoping for love
There's a young girl inside
Dying to come alive
And I see her in Rianna
But Rianna won't let me in
And I do love Rianna
closer to me, use your body, hypnotize me,
the way you move controls me (x2)
she makes my body weak, oh yeah baby,
when she's around, i can hardly speak,
oh what she does to me, oh lord oh
oh the things she, does, the way she, moves,
the things she says to me, drives me, up, oh
up the, wall, and makes me, so crazy. now i'm,
here, and she is, there, staring just, at me. all
i, want to tell this, girl. is come close to me
chorus (x2)
verse
pre- chorus
chorus (x2)
the way she moves is like slow motion from a
movie scene. she's coming cross the room and
soon she will be next. she touched. she's got
me. and i just cannot get enough.
All I want
Is an ordinary moment here with you
-no distractions
Tell the world
That you're busy doing nothing
Cancel everything - let it go
Hey, do we know what really matters here?
We've been working so much
-we're forgetting to touch
What have we become?
Do you know that it's a crime
To never find the time to love
Meet me in the kitchen at the table
-I just want to be alone with you
Stare into the eyes I've been missing
Don't say anything -you don't need to
I love you
We've been working too much
And forgetting to touch
Is what we're guilty of
But you know the greatest crime
Is that we never find the time to love
If I could just believe in something
If I could just believe in anything at all
If I could just believe in someone
I'd be happy...
I'd even settle for a false hope
I still believe it's better than no hope at all
Somebody hit me with a pipe dream
And I'd be happy – I'd be happy
I would run up-hill
Without a single care in the world
Hoping soon that I'd be running down
To something
I'd like to believe that somewhere
Someone is writing all the words I long to hear on
A giant billboard for outside my front door
To make me happy
It would make me happy
I would take a chance
-purely from ignorance
Blissfully thinking soon that I'd be coming home
To something...someone
I am always trying to keep my ass in line
In my mind I play with all I see
-sleeping with the world all the time
-in my mind
But I'd never stray for a minute
That shit's not real
But if I fall apart
You will be here for me
And if life breaks my heart
You will be here for me
Be here for me now
You should always know
I'll never give up fighting for this life
For our life
I am here for good
I could never leave
All your dreams are my dreams
Don't ever think for a minute
I'd let you go
And if life breaks your heart
I will be here for you
And if you fall apart
I will be here for you
Be here for you now
You keep me safe
I keep you sane
And if life breaks your heart
I will be here for you
And if I fall apart
You will be here for me
oh i see him but he dont see me
and my heart beats so faintly
i'd like to show him who i am
but i'm to shy (drums) DAMN...
i'd like to look into his eyes
and he is worth a thousland tries
but he is just a little flirt
and i don't feel like getting hurt...........
(chours) and heee rocks my world...and he rocks my world.
someday maybe you will see
what this mystery boy means to me
but for now you just don't know
and he is gonna help me grow...
(chours)
Her number's under your shirt
-next to your heart (As if you could hide)
She leaves her taste in your mouth
- her smell on your fingers (As if I won't mind)
I wanna' know
-Is your Miss Ophelia
Giving you all that you crave?
I wanna' know
-Is your addiction to me
Stronger than your Miss Ophelia?
She's in her favorite place - your lips around her –
As I watch from the side
She makes you feel sensual -you make her look so intriguing
Think I might try her
I wanna' know
-Could your Miss Ophelia
Give to me all I crave?
And I wanna' know
-Is the addiction to love
Stronger than your Miss Ophelia?
She put a spell in our veins, smoke in our eyes
We are so blinded
I wanna' know
-Did your Miss Ophelia
Give to you all that you crave?
For the words we never said,
And the life we never had,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.
For the reason that I had to wave our world goodbye,
I'm sorry,
I'm so sorry.
Where are you now?
Now that I'm lost and all alone?
Where are you now?
Now that I...I'm on my own,
And all I have for comfort is my ego and my pride?
So I don't cry.
To the young boy that I can't erase from my mind,
I'm sorry,
I'm so sorry.
For the selfish girl inside who still wants you in my life,
I'm sorry,
I'm so sorry.
Where are you now?
Now that I'm lost and all alone?
Where are you now?
Now that I...I'm on my own,
And all I ever wanted was to have you by my side,
And all I have for comfort is my ego and my pride?
So I don't cry...cry.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Now that I'm lost and all alone?
Where are you now?
Now that I...I'm on my own?
And all I have for comfort is my ego and my pride?
I don't cry.
Do you always have to tell him
everything on your mind?
You know that too much
honesty can be so unkind.
Everytime you throw him to the floor,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
You always try to find
what's holding him away from you.
But do you ever see your anger
standing there right between you?
And everytime you throw him to the wall,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
Tell the world that he's breaking your heart.
Go tell the world,
nothing's ever your fault.
Go tell them all...
And every time you throw him to the floor,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
And every time you push him to the wall,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
Gone are the chances I have passed by
-sewn all my seeds to the wind
Time can be nothing but pain in disguise
-I'll never see you again
And it's too late
to think of what I've left behind
-dreams that have faded from view
Too late ' too late
I've burned all my bridges with you
and I can't walk on water
The road that I've traveled is all that I know
-paved with each piece of my soul
And it's taken me far - but left you behind
and I'm longing to see you again
But it's too late
to think of what I've left behind
-dreams that have faded from view
Too late ' too late
I've burned all my bridges with you
Did I reach for a sky that wasn't my own?
Lost in my own world
-now I can never come home
to you
And it's too late
to think of what I've left behind
-dreams that have faded from view
Too late- there's no turning back
-nothing that I can undo
Adam looked at eve she said that apple's lookin' sweet
The serpent slithered up and said c'mon let's eat
They knew that they were told to resist the tree with love
Afraid to tell the truth and now their garden's gone so
Just like anybody, the devil got me too
And now there's nothing I can do
Chorus: Because temptation is comin' onto me, temptation
I'm just too blind to see your sweet temptation
Knockin' at my door, temptation I just got to get some more
The neighbor's wife is pretty and she wants a truth or dare
She justifies adultery as a meaningless affair
Later on that evening, lord she can't believe her eyes
Her old man's cheatin' lover's in a black book of disguise
Just like everybody I got a black book too
Now there's nothing I can do
Chorus
The sexy secretary has a twinkle in her eye
She sees a million dollars as the CEO walks by
Business mixed with pleasure and the lawyers will prevail
While the plaintiff and defendant are both going straight to hell
All because a little bit of
You're everything that I could dream
Every time you look at me
'make me feel like I'm queen of the world
You're so amazing it's insane
Can't find a single thing
I would even change if you were mine
But I don't wanna' love you
and I don't wanna' care
Cause if I go on and love you
and you go - what then?
I could so get used to this
--knowing what to expect
You never leave me guessing how you feel
You say 'I Love You' every day
'Thank You' is all I say
'cause I'm afraid you're too good to be real
Don't wanna love you
No I don't wanna care
Cause if I go on and love you
You'll go
When you looked down
From your heaven and found me here
You could see my heart was not quite right
-Something missing in my life
I didn't understand
-Then I held your little hand
Now I know – Now I know
I was waiting for you, Baby
Now I know – Now I know
How much my heart can love
You filled it up with the touch of an angel
- you have saved me from the emptiness - I'm not alone
Now I know
I used to dream
I'd hear a sweet voice down the hall
Singing lullabies
It seemed so real
I'd wake up holding my pillow so tight
-as I was kissing it good-night
Now I know – Now I know
I was dreaming of you, Baby
Now I know – Now I know
You're the song inside my heart
You bring me joy with the voice of an angel
-you have saved me
I can feel you now - I'm not alone
Now I know
In all the world
I can't believe
You chose me to love for all time
Now I know – Now I know
I was waiting for you, Baby
Now I know – Now I know
How much my heart can love
You filled it up with the touch of an angel
You have saved me from the emptiness
I'm not alone
Now I know
February 1994
- coldest Valentine L.A.'s ever known
All I gave you were tears without a cause
And I don't know why I could not say
The words inside my heart
I need you
You are my life - I love you
Heaven is mine - I want you I...want you I...
Hear me
More than my life I love you
More than the sky I need you I...want you I...
All your roses - faded from the light –
Hang in my window to remind me of the night
I said nothing and you faded away
I'd give anything
To take back all the things I didn't say
I want you
More than the sun I need you
Heaven is mine - I want you I...want you I...
Hear me
You are my life - I love you
More than the sky I need you I...want you I...
And I know that if you'd come to me
Like you did before I'd love you
-swear I would always need you
You are my life
I'd want you I – I'd need you I...
Hear me
More than my life I'd love you
You’re everything that I could dream
Every time you look at me
‘make me feel like I’m queen of the world
You’re so amazing it’s insane
Can’t find a single thing
I would even change if you were mine
But I don’t wanna’ love you
And I don’t wanna’ care
Cause if I go on and love you
And you go - what then?
I could so get used to this
--knowing what to expect
You never leave me guessing how you feel
You say “I Love You” every day
“Thank You” is all I say
‘cause I’m afraid you’re too good to be real
Don’t wanna love you
No I don’t wanna care
Cause if I go on and love you
You’ll go
He was the windscreen on a two-tone Peterbuilt
-hauling genuine Cadillac body parts from Detroit
To San Diego-
Driving eighty-five miles an hour down my road
I was an ordinary housefly crossing the road
-just outside Victorville
He knows, and I know
But the knowing doesn't make it easier
And so we go on
And we try to run without the missing parts
Shut eyes, go straight
Spin around until we hit the wall again
I have a feeling that I'm
Along for the ride
We're going nowhere
It's all, all the same scenery
All the same you and me
We're going nowhere
We joke about it
Funny, I'm not laughing anymore
So much time wasted
Pretending we don't know how lost we are
Just shut eyes, and go straight
Spin around until we hit the wall again
And I have a feeling that I'm
Along for the ride
We're going nowhere
It's all, all the same scenery
All the same you and me
We're going nowhere
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Oh, all the same scenery
All the same you and me
We're going nowhere
And I have a feeling that I'm
Just along for the ride
And we're going nowhere
La da da da da da
Na na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na na, na na
Oooh, oooh.
All the years
Alone
The days that pass so slow
As you wasted your time searching for perfection
All the needs
All the ones
All the dreams that came so close
Did you wait for a sign to fly right through your window?
While you missed the answer walking through your door
***Chorus***
Hey there oblivious!
Here is your happiness
If you would only turn around
Isn't it obvious?
Mr Oblivious
Love can so easily be found
Just turn around...
If I could be so bold
May I make a suggestion?
You've been searching so long
But in the wrong direction
I've been standing right behind you all this time
Repeat Chorus
...I am here
Repeat Chorus
Just turn around
I'm a very quirky girl
-live in front of my tv
A million girls like me
I have no remote control
-I can never change the world-
so unreality is all I wanna' see
When nothing is real
When nothing is real
evil is not taking over the universe
‘cause Superman is still standing
and nothing is real
When nothing is real
another beautiful day in the neighborhood
and everyone is laughing on cue
I can always find my way
to the street of sesame
Sweep the clouds away
-there's a baby in the sun
Little smile for everyone
He makes me wanna' feel
-makes me wanna' love again
But nothing is real
When nothing is real
evil has not taken over the universe
Silver Towers are still standing
and nothing is real
When nothing is real
another beautiful day in the neighborhood
and everyone is clapping on and on and on and on
I just saved the world today
Write your name upon my sidewalk
-paint it on the door outside-
And I will never go away without you
Tape your picture on my mirror
-blow it up and paste it on my bedroom wall-
And I will never stay inside again
Without you
You remind me – Remind me
You're the one – the only one that
I-I really love
You remind me – Remind me
Of anyone I've ever known you
Are the only one
I should be thinking of
I'll leave a necklace on your dresser
-throw my clothes across your chair-
So when you wake up in the morning
I am...I am there
I'll put a love note in your pocket
-leave my lipstick kisses all over your face-
So when you go to sleep without me
I'll be there - I'll be there
To remind you - Remind you
You're the one – the only one that
I-I really love
To remind you – Remind you
Of anyone you've ever known I
Are all my good intentions wasted on you?
Hell, Hell, here I come…
So many hours wasted talking to you
Hell, Hell, here I come…
Do you have love
Enough for the whole world?
You go out -You hide out
We all want to know you
Every once in awhile
You sign a photograph
And if I met you on the street
Would you be really nice to me
Or would you ignore me and make me feel stupid?
I feel like a know you like a friend
-seen every movie you've been in
But if you ignore me I'll hate you cause I am
Your biggest fan
I love
Your garbage
To touch it
Is to touch you
Every once in awhile
I sell a piece for cash
And if you saw me on your street
Would you be really nice to me
Or would you start screaming and have me arrested?
You know that I love you like a friend
-love every song you ever sing
But if you start screaming I'll hate you cause I am
Your biggest fan
And if I called you on the phone
Would you say, “Hey, how are ya' doin'?”
Or would you hang up in my face like an asshole?
You know I'd do anything for you
No one knows you like I do
But if you ignore me you'll lose me – and I am
I believe there's no Hell
If you just try to love enemies as yourself
-Heaven will surely hold you a place
Outer space is so friggin' huge
I'm convinced there's no way
We're just spinning ‘round
The sun all day without
A purpose or an explanation
Raise the white flag
And surrender to this life-
Don't question how or why
Pour the whiskey, smell the roses
-tell some jokes
Laugh before you die
It is obvious - life is too short
Always seems we get it down
Just in time to go
Somewhere - who knows where
Maybe someplace better...better
See the white light and surrender
When it's time
Don't question how or why
Lay your arms down
And surrender to clouds
You will feel amazing
You will be amazing
What is fiction - what is real?
We've been programmed what to feel
By the tv– by the pen
Let your heart open your eyes again
Your eyes again
You know life's too short to live it in fear
Only thing you will regret is what you
Do not do at all - even more than the
Stupid things you do
Better take the chance
Listen to your heart
-no one can tell you
Hey Jimmy, where did we go?
Remember where we started?
It seems a million miles from here
I thought you had the road map
Tucked underneath your hat but
The only thing you had was Eminem's and beer
Jimmy there's No Doubt
You did the best that you could do
I know when I go there will be nothing but Blue Mondays
But I'm certain we both know
We could never stay together
Hey Jimmy I don't blame you
You tried to warn me from The Start
-you'd never had a girl like me before
You know I love U2 but
That's all we have in common
A love cannot survive on kisses and Limp promises
Jimmy there's No Doubt
No one could ever take your place
I know when I go I'm gonna' miss your Big Dumb Face
But I'm certain it's for sure
We don't belong together
Please don't Drag On this Eve of our sorrow
Please don't be Cold You know I Will Love You
You know I Will Love You...
Jimmy there's No Doubt
We did the best that we could do
And I know letting go will leave a Hole inside my heart
But a sad Unwritten Law
Hey you
Could you turn around
Could you turn it down if it wanted you
Hey you
Are you past the point of discontention
Has it gone too far for you to mention
Could you turn it off
It's too late for you to save the day
You should be running away
It's too late today
Why don't you turn around
Hey you
Could you turn around
Are you coming down from what once you knew
Hey you
Are you past the point of reinvention
Has it been too loud for you to listen
Should I turn it off
Too many colors paint your picture
So who am I supposed to blame
When all I see is red and gray
What are we fighting for
We never play
Kissy face in front of strangers
And we never run to each other in slow motion
No rolling around on the shore with sand between our toes
But I guess this is
A different kind of wonderful
-we're in love in the real world
It's not what I thought it would be but
I can't let this go
A different kind of happiness
-doesn't get more real than this
It's not what they said it would be but
I can't let this go
I didn't see
Anything in you when we first met
-when I believed I would fall in love at first sight
Night after night we bared our souls over coffee
Now I know I love you
A different kind of wonderful
-we're in love in the real world
It's not what I thought it would be but
I can't let this go
A different kind of blissfulness
-we can't get more real than this
It's not what they said it would be but
I can't let it go
I never saw the fireworks
-the stars didn't fall from the sky
But this is more beautiful than a quick flash
I never saw a rainbow
-the stars didn't fall from the sky
In my fantasy I
Have a brown bag full of thousands and hundreds
And a stolen Jaguar
And I drive alone into the wind
Nothing is more beautiful
Than a girl on the road
Nothing is more beautiful than a freeway
In my fantasy I come
Upon an Irish hitchhiker
He says his tour bus left him stranded by the road
And it's one love, one life for me
And Bono
Oh, nothing is more beautiful
Than a boy by the road
Nothing is more beautiful to me
Passing all the cities by
And all we can leave behind
Nothing is more beautiful than a freeway
And we would cross the country singing
Nothing is more beautiful
Than the night on the road
Nothing is more beautiful to see
Passing all the city lights
-leave the world so far behind us

One more girl on the top of the Billboard
One more girl jumping in with the big boys
One more year and I'm still a no one
Waiting for my day in the sun
Chorus:
Hello, it's me - the girl you had to have
oh well...
Hello, it's me - the girl you had to have
Number twelve - remember me?
You filled me with Great Expectations
just to hide me in your basement
Did you get from me what you wanted... huh?
Did you lose my telephone number?
Hello, it's me - the girl you had to have
oh well...
Hello, it's me - the girl you had to have
Number twelve - remember me?
Just ask yourself, "Am I neglecting someone?"
Hello, it's me - the girl you had to have
oh well...
Hello, it's me - the girl you had to have

I learned to fly
So you
You ran to find the gun
To shoot me down
Before
I got too high
'Cause you could not stand
To stand alone in the long line
For your wild ride - it requires
Two lost souls per seat
At least five foot five
Chorus:
--And I don't wanna' go
for a ride
Down to Miseryland
Trapped with you
By my side
Down in Miseryland
Up in the air you wave
Two tickets for my
utter amusement
You possess
an express pass to unhappiness
that makes you feel alive?
And I don't have a place any more
Down in Miseryland
Trapped with you forever more
Is not what I have planned
So take a seat
By yourself
And wait to fall a hundred stories
Better hold on tight
Hands in--side the ride
And don't for get to breathe
-And I don't wanna' go
for a ride
Down to Miseryland
Trapped with you
By my side
Down in misery
have a place any more
Down in misery
Down in Miseryland
I learned to fly
But you are still shooting the sky
Still shooting

Sell my soul - I'll sell my soul I've
nothing left to lose
Hurt myself - I'll hurt myself cover
my face with tattoos all of
painted tears - one for each year that
only could have been
Anything I can do to keep you
underneath my skin
Chorus:
Over and over I tell myself
If there's no you there's nobody else and I'd
rather be lonely - I'd rather die
six hundred sixty-six times
By myself - I'm not myself I can't
be without you
An empty shell - my former self is out
looking to find you
Over and over I tell myself
If there's no you there's nobody else and I'd
rather be lonely - I'd rather die

If this ever gets to you
will you know it's from me?
Or would you think it was a joke
throw it back to the sea
Chorus:
Or do you, do you know
everything I'm feeling
Do you know
No one could love you more
My true north
If this ever gets to you
Will you please forgive me
I was the one who let you down
It's too late for "sorry"
Or do you, do you know
everything I'm feeling
Do you know
No one could love you more
My true north
If I told you then
- I'd made it clear
would you still be here?
Or do you, do you know
everything I'm feeling
Do you know
No one could love you more
Til my body is dust
til my soul is no more
I will love you, love you
Til the sun starts to cry
and the moon turns to rust
I will love you, love you
But I need to know
will you stay for all time
forever and a day
Then I'll give my heart
'til the end of all time
forever and a day
And I need to know
will you stay for all time
forever and a day
Then I'll give my heart
'til the end of all time
forever and a day
'Til the storms fill my eyes
and we touch the last time
I will love you, love you
I will love you, love you...
Do you always have to tell him
everything on your mind?
You know that too much
honesty can be so unkind.
Everytime you throw him to the floor,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
You always try to find
what's holding him away from you.
But do you ever see your anger
standing there right between you?
And everytime you throw him to the wall,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
Tell the world that he's breaking your heart.
Go tell the world,
nothing's ever your fault.
Go tell them all...
And every time you throw him to the floor,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
And every time you push him to the wall,
Why are you surprised to see
He's breakable?
I listened to you from your pedestal
Telling us all how your world was full of shit
Why couldn't you bow and say "Thank you all"
To everyone who made you what you are
It sent my heart, hurt, crashing down
Cuz these are my dreams you're bashing
You're living the life
Can't you see you are living the life?
You're living the life that I only dream
The kingdom you own, does it drag you down?
I'll gladly relieve you of your big shiny crown
You say it's so frustrating now
I can't believe you're faking
Living the life
Seems to me you are living the life
You're living the wonderful, wonderful life
Tell me (Tell me), Would you (Would you)
Really (Really), rather be a nobody, nobody knows?
You're living the life
Don't you see you are living the life?
You're living the life that I wanted
Living the life
Please don't tell me my dream is a lie
Cuz this is the way that I fill my heart
Fill my heart
Fly away home.
Go on and go.
Fly away home.
You're living the life
You're living the life that I wanted
You're Living the life
You're living the life that I wanted
That I wanted.
That I wanted.
He wants to
I want too much
He says he's taking his time
When I hold him
And he holds back
It hurts me that I don't mind
Chorus:
He has only so much
He can give up for me
And I have only so much
And that's not enough but
Everything is good
Everything is fine for now
La da da la da la da da
She don't cry
I don't cry
The past won't let us let go
When she holds me
And I hold back
If she minds I'll never know
I have only so much
I can give up for her
And she gives only so much
And that's not enough but
Everything's good
Everything's fine
For now
For now
We have only so much
We can give up for love
And we give only so much
And that's not enough but
Everything is good
Everything is fine
Never knew why he would fall victim to five-dollar highs
Bending his stories, inventing new lies - telling of cancers
One way to avoid questions and answers
Chorus
And Karl, he's lucky
He's learned how to fly
By keeping his knees on the ground
The most likely one to achieve
Such a high
And Karl is missing tonight
What can I say to his poor father
He calls every day - looking for clues
There's no "Gingerbread Man" for him to follow
The candy man's come and taken his son
And Karl, he's lucky
He's learned how to fly
By keeping his knees on the ground
His face in the dirt
And his friends by his side
And Karl is missing tonight
Maybe I'm the one that's wrong - I misunderstood
You just wanna die young to come back And feel good
But is it worth the exchange? Does it keep you from harm?
The last time I saw you ~ you clutched my arm and you wept
Like a child
And Karl, he's lucky
He's learned how to fly
By keeping his knees on the ground
He's learned how to leave without saying goodbye
And Karl is missing tonight
Praying for silence
inside your head.
Now it's too quiet
for thinking.
Turning the lights on
to fill every room.
You wanted them empty
for dancing, dreaming
Did you find what you wanted?
Is it all like you dreamed?
Are you happier now, Miss Kathleen?
No obligations.
Nothing but time.
For your indulgence
into your own mind.
What will you find there
if you let nothing in?
Will there be too much, dear,
to keep your sanity?
Did you find what you wanted?
Is it all like you dreamed?
Are you happier now, Miss Kathleen?
Are you longing
still longing
for more?
Did you find what you wanted?
Is it all like you dreamed?
Are you happier now, Miss Kathleen?

Are you a messenger asleep in my mind?
Are you a voice that I've left silent inside
Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now?
I used to talk to you, I'd look to the sky
Search the moon, I'd ask the stars for a sign
Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now?
Do you know this woman who shares your name?
Time has changed her face.
Can you see me now?
'cause I still need to believe
You're watching over me now - over me
Have you travelled to places unknown?
Is there a road that you can tell me to follow?
Tell me how I can see you once again
Do you know this woman who carries your name in her heart?
Time has changed her face.
Can you see me now?
'cause I still need to believe
You're watching over me now - over me
I could never find the words to tell you
My heart's always found it hard to say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Tell me
oh tell me
Are you watching me?
I need you now
Can you see me here can you tell me, can you?
You're watching over me
I woke up and Mary was still gone
Thought if I stopped hurting she would come back
To me
Walk right through the door and say, "Ahhh huhhhh!
I was only joking - didn't you look silly crying!"
But I wake up and Mary is still gone
I looked at the clock and it was
Still
Lying on the floor exactly where I threw it
Both hands smashed against its silver face
My feeble attempt to stop
Time but time goes on
And I wake up and Mary is still gone
Chorus:
Mary was it necessary
To leave before the party
I know it's selfish to say
You always brought the cake now
What will I eat with all these tears?
I looked at the list and saw her name
Kick myself, she never got an invitation
Kid myself, I'm sure somehow she knew
My stupid attempt to find
Some way to move on
But I wake up and Mary is still gone
