Seattle When It Rains
03:41
|
|||
|
I've never been one to chase after the sun
or tan my skin golden brown
Some say I'm insane, 'cause I love the rain
Especially in my home town
My heaven is found, on the shores of Puget Sound
Its a joy that I can't explain. In Seattle when it rains
I get such a thrill, looking out from Queen Anne Hill
I adore the cobblestone lanes
and how they glisten when it rains
Hear the tick tick tock of the market clock
as the merchants sell their wares.
If you're feeling blue stroll fifth avenue
Say "adieu" to all your cares
I hear the happy notes of the ferry boats
as they sing their glad refrain.
And when raindrops hit my window pane
and skies are painted gray.
I get such a hoot under my bumbershoot
in Seattle when it rains.

Deja Vu

Hey pretty lady
have I seen you here before
i get the feeling that we've met
but I'm not quite sure
Deep down i know that i
i've never been to this particular place
but it all seems so familiar
including your pretty face
its all coming back to me
low some long lost memory
in a flash out of the blue
tell me do you feel this too?
DEJA VU -
again and again
again what can i do
DEJA VU -
again and again
i keep falling
in love with you
its more real to me
then some half forgotten dream
such vivid recollection
or at least thats how it seems
it feels like i'm watching a movie
on the late night picture show
thinking that i've already seen this
but not sure how the ending goes
you must think i've lost my head
that i should be home in bed
i suppose if i were you
i would think the same thing too
DEJA VU -
again and again
again what can i do
DEJA VU -
again and again
i keep falling
in love with you
My doctors say that something deep inside my brain
makes me think that things keep happening again
Deep down i know that i
i've never been to this particular place
but it all seems familiar
including your pretty face
its all coming back to me
is this just a long lost memory
in a flash out of the blue
maybe its just deja vu
DEJA VU -
again and again
again what can i do
DEJA VU -
again and again
i keep falling

a million stars in the sky
light up the night
the glow of the moon
unusually bright
I've never had anything
feel so right
its beautiful night a beautiful night
Im so glad
you can share this moment with me
right here and right now
is the place we should be
its like all of the stars
are falling out of the sky
its beautiful night a beautiful night
its BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
I WILL REMEMBER
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
we put our blanket down
and settle in a meadow
nobody's around
its quiet, still, and mellow
you snuggle up closer
and i hold you tight
its beautiful night a beautiful night
we lie on our back and look to the sky
so many shooting stars is like the fourth of july
you squeeze my hand - i feel butterflies
its beautiful night a beautiful night
its BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
I WILL REMEMBER
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
THIS BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
ILL ALWAYS THINK OF
CAUSE THIS BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE
BRIDGE
STARLIGHT STAR BRIGHT
THE ONE THING THAT I WISH TONIGHT
I WISH I MAY I WISH I MIGHT
BE WITH YOU THE REST OF MY LIFE
we lie on our back and look to the sky
so many shooting stars is like the fourth of july
you squeeze my hand - i feel butterflies
its beautiful night a beautiful night
Im so glad
you can share this moment with me
right here and right now
is the place we should be
its like all of the stars
are falling out of the sky
its beautiful night a beautiful night
its BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT
I WILL REMEMBER
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE

ILL ALWAYS THINK OF
CAUSE THIS BEAUTIFUL NIGHT

Don't Know How
03:28
|
|||
|
I've never been accused of being shy
life of the party? people say that I'm that guy
But I see you and break out in a cold cold sweat
i look like a fool who's tongue tied and soaking wet
i want to tell you that i love you but i know how
i wish that i was brave enough to say it here and now
its such a simple sentence that my ego won't allow
I want to but i don't know how
to spend some time with you
is my greatest single aspiration
but who would want an average dude
who smells of fear and desperation
i try to hello and i forget how to speak
i need you to know that Im not some sort of creepy freak
i want to tell you that i love you but i know how
i wish that i was brave enough to say it here and now
its such a simple sentence that my ego won't allow
I want to but i don't know how
if you read between the lines
i'm sure you'll see all the signs
i don't what words I should say
aren't actions louder anyway?
do i really have to speak for us to have a meeting
'cause when you say a single word it feels like my heart stops beating
'cause i love you bigger than the whole blue sky
but i cant tell you - and i have no good reason why
i want to tell you that i love you but i know how
(whoa Want to tell you!)
i wish that i was brave enough to say it here and now
(whoa Want to tell you!)
its such a simple sentence that my ego won't allow
(whoa Want to tell you!)
i want to tell you that i love you but i know how
(whoa Want to tell you!)
i wish that i was brave enough to say it here and now
(whoa Want to tell you!)
its such a simple sentence that my ego won't allow
(whoa Want to tell you!)
i want to tell you that i love you but i know how
I want to but i don't know how

The Weekend
03:57
|
|||
|
Its a quarter to five
I'm barely alive
the sun's still asleep
as i head to the hive
for eight long hours
im a drone
i work the phones
for a savings and loan
so glad that the working weeks over
hop into my chevy nova
but every payday, I put money away
so i can get a new range rover
roll to my pad
to get ready
wolf down a bowl
of day old spaghetti
no time to spare
as i slick my hair
clothes to select
got an early soundcheck
glance in the mirror's reflection
sheer sartorial perfection
now i'm not gay
but i must say
if i swung that way,
i would tell myself "hey"
thank goodness for the weekend
can i get an amen
give it up for the weekend
thank goodness for friday to sunday
gonna party 'til Monday
with all of my good friends
another long week is behind us
you know that means that you'll find us
in a suite down at the four seasons
friday' night is a good enough reason
mic check mic check
one to the two
hello ladies
how do you do
i like the way you look
and your homegirls too
gonna kick it later on
why don't you swing on through
fine girls of every flavor
down for some naughty behavior
a soccer mom that was bomb
even a cute little candy raver
friday gonna hit it all night
sleep in then saturday night
gonna hit it again, then kick it with my friends
have a gin and tonic
a red bull or some chronic
vodka or bacardi
we all came to party

lyrics
I was chillin' at the casa on a Saturday night
Getting caught up on my Netflix I was feeling alright
When my tummy started rumblin' it was time to go eat
So I headed to the small cantina just down the street
There was a new girl waiting tables man she was fine
The way she walked was like slow motion, really blew my mind
She had the bounce
The girly had the bounce
The girly bounce
nothings better than the bounce
Right where it counts
She had the bounce
in large amounts
and ounce for ounce
nothings better than the bounce
They showed me to my table, I felt high as a kite
The new girl said im gonna be your server tonight
I hid behind my menu watched her working the room
She came to take my order I had sauteed mushrooms
I'm not the kind of guy who gets all creepy and stares
but for what this chick was packing I was unprepared
She had the bounce
The girly had the bounce
The girly bounce
nothings better than the bounce
Right where it counts
She had the bounce
in large amounts
and ounce for ounce
nothings better than the bounce
Fast forward later in the evening, they were ready to close
After watching all that bouncing I could of proposed
I told her when her shift was over- if she'd nothing to do
I'd love to have her over for a cocktail or two
She said she'd love to come by and kick it for a while
Then she flashed that wicked white smile
That night we bounced
The girly had the bounce
and ounce for ounce nothings better than the bounce
Right where it counts
She had the bounce
in large amounts
and ounce for ounce
nothings better than the bounce

Upside Down
03:05
|

|
my life it had no worries
I was so truly blessed
i never had to hurry
the road to my success
you were a cataclysm
wrapped up in a small black dress
I felt your magnetism
it scared me i confess
i never claimed that i was
close to the perfect man
though times I may have thought that
I laid the perfect plan
but sometimes best intentions
can simply go awry
you need some one to suffer
you need some one to cry
You've got upside down
spinning 'round
can't get my feet
back on the ground
i'm upside down
so tightly wound
ever since
you've came around
i don't have a big ego
but i do have some pride
the words you say are lethal
they make me dead inside
i need to know the reason
you set your sights on me
you say you're only teasin'
i've lost my sanity
i give you all the loving
my heart still has to give
maybe i'm just too trusting
too willing to forgive
why can't you simply tell me
what is it you desire
your love is far too toxic
it burns me worse than fire
You've got upside down
spinning 'round
can't get my feet
back on the ground
i'm upside down
so tightly wound
ever since
you've came around
you have me so confused
off balance and feeling used
what is that you want from me
before you set me free
You've got upside down
spinning 'round
can't get my feet
back on the ground
i'm upside down
so tightly wound
ever since
you've came around

Almost Summer
01:16
|

|
Summer's on its way
for its yearly stay
three months of bright and happy days
all filled up with sun
three lazy months of sleeping late
and recreation
Summer's almost here
so jump up and give a cheer
from June To August
no dull cares
no need to dress like polar bears
soaking of some rays
in my lawn chair
ooh Its almost summer
I can hardly wait
for the last day of school
it will be so great
to hang out by the pool
Blue skies are arriving
Daffodils are thriving
the memories i'm gonna make
with my friends down at the lake
i could scream for goodness sake
its almost summer

Hell Of A Guy
02:54
|
|||
|
Back on the scene
for the twenty fifteen
its time to get serious
just like a peak freen
F Y I thats a special kind of cookie
you're looking at a champ
you nothing but a rookie
rappers today
they be lacking any etiquette
ignorance is bliss?
Which one is the predicate?
Mic check one two
three and to the four
Y'all came back
and you're raring for more
of the rhymes i spit when
i don't control my brain
my flow is straight up nuts
it makes me sound insane
i'm fly as a bird
I don't even try
you wanna know the reason why?
I'm a hell of a guy
(he's a hell of a guy)
i cant lie
I'm a hell of a guy
(he's a hell of a guy)
My My
i got mad rhymes
packed up in my cranium
the flow i spit
is glowing like uranium
ha- that's just a simile
i'm being hyperbolic
you slurring all your syllables
ha just like you're an alcoholic
ah I'm just playing
just a little joke
you smell toast burning?
maybe its a stroke
or all the 'dro you smoke
that makes your rhymes feeble
you’re like a weeble you wobble
but you can’t get DOWN
you’re a clown
while i'm renown
from town to town
the whole world 'round
for knowing how to get down
you cant deny
I'm a hell of a guy
(he's a hell of a guy)
i cant lie
I'm a hell of a guy
(he's a hell of a guy)
My My
when theres a mic in my hand
there's the marching of bands
and the cheering of fans
way up high in the stands
All the fly ladies I be blowing they mind
they have to call me Micki because I'm so fine
To all the party people
on the floor tonight
we gonna rock this place
until the broad daylight
To all the party people
on the floor tonight
we gonna rock this place
'til we do it right
Live hard, die young that used to be my motto
wasted half my life being stupid- getting blotto
you cant trade your body in for a new model
so grab yourself a book and put down the freaking bottle
knocking out a song a week
that's become my habit
is been over four whole years and i got'sta have it
you try to step to me? oh you're such a silly rabbit
is that your mic- Huh- let me grab it
when i flex i break necks my rhymes are so hard
they only get an hour each day in the yard
tell your mama i said "challah"
no need to be shy
I'm a hell of a guy
(he's a hell of a guy)
i cant lie
I'm a hell of a guy
(he's a hell of a guy)
My My

Perfect
04:08
|

|
i know you feel unsure
your heart is broke in two
you needn't be inured
with people hurting you
if you look deep inside
you'll realize all along
rising just like the tide
right here's where you belong
i've never loved before
with every part of me
i've never felt so sure
could it be destiny
feels like the perfect time
the perfect place
for me to kiss
your perfect face
your perfect lips
shouldn't go to waste
in this perfect moment
i used to be afraid
until i met you
i don't know what to say
please tell me what to do (about the)
giant wall you've made
around your tender heart
all those bricks you've laid
Ill tear them all apart
I used to play at love
over and again
none of it was true
with you its not pretend
feels like the perfect time
the perfect place
for me to kiss
your perfect face
your perfect lips
shouldn't go to waste
in this perfect moment
its not make believe
this magic feeling
you standing here with me
are we just dreaming
I know you're insecure
wondering what to do
my love for you is pure
ill take good care of you
so throw out all your fears
forget about your pain
ill help you dry your tears
and learn to smile again
i've never loved before
with every part of me
i've never felt so sure
could it be destiny
feels like the perfect time
the perfect place
for me to kiss
your perfect face
your perfect lips
shouldn't go to waste
in this perfect moment

Lost Weekend
02:59
|
|||
|
Well I woke up this morning
with a mouth full of cotton
completely forgotten
the previous night
With my memory defective
I'm playing detective
with a single objective
of shedding some light
ON ANOTHER LOST WEEKEND
ONE HECK OF A TIME
GOT AN EMPTY SALT SHAKER
AND A BUNCH OF SQUEEZED LIMES
MY TWO FIFTHS OF CUERVO
ARE DRY AS A BONE
A THREE DAY LONG PARTY
HOW DID I GET HOME
A faint recollection of feeling real down
when I heard my dear sweatheart was out on the town
she checked in on Facebook and twitter to boot
and instagramed photos with somebody new
ON ANOTHER LOST WEEKEND
THREE NIGHTS WITH THE BOYS
OUT DRINKING SOME WHISKEY
AND MAKING SOME NOISE
FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
IS ALL JUST A BLUR
I THINK I GOT LUCKY BUT
IM NOT SO SURE
My memory's still hazy
but things got so crazy
that they had to taze me
to throw me in jail
I wasn't thinking
when i started drinking
i thought i was dreaming
when she posted bail
I knew she was cheating
and told her the same
I wanted to know her new fellas name
She said with a giggle there was no new guy
Then she showed me the photos
of myself and I
ON ANOTHER LOST WEEKEND
THREE NIGHTS ON THE TOWN
DRANK SO MUCH BOURBON
I SHOULD HAVE DROWN
MY LADY STILL LOVES ME
EVEN THOUGH I AM DAFT
SHE KEEPS ME AROUND
'CAUSE I'M GOOD FOR A LAUGH
ON ANOTHER LOST WEEKEND
STRIKE UP THE BAND
IF YOU SEE ME STUMBLE
PLEASE LEND ME A HAND
I'M BUYNG THIS ROUND
EVERYONE WHET YOUR BEAK
WE'LL DO IT AGAIN
AT THE END OF THE WEEK

Demon Rum
03:58
|
|||
|
went on holiday
with my baby
someplace tropical
not too shady
booked a red eye
discount flight
popped a couple pills
slept through the night
the next day
woke up in paradise
three star place
it was very nice
vacation just begun
room service knocked
complimentary rum
demon rum
demon rum
oh lord what have i become
my happy life has come undone
all because of demon rum
we like the ocean
we like the sea
thats the place we'd rather be
so we went to rent a boat
paid with cash a stack of notes
we headed out with the noon day sun
a perfect day had just begun
went to the galley to mix some fun
there were two pineapples and demon rum
demon rum
demon rum
oh lord what have i become
my happy life has come undone
all because of demon rum
BRIDGE
We popped the crown on a scary looking bottle
the engine died when we hit the throttle
dark clouds swirled the skies turned black
with no way of turning back
i went to pour another round when i went for the rum and I had found
the empty bottle knocked on its side
out of rum I could have cried
our pleasure cruise all but over
soon we would both be sober
in the grips of our boating crisis
no rum to drink just pineapple slices
adrift at sea miles from Kingston
innocent victims of the demon rum
No radio - cellphone signal
no one in sight nary a seagull
opened a storage locker out with a thud
thirty three pounds of the stickiest buds
Well demon rum so long son
you tried your best but we are done
getting baked in the setting sun
overboard goes demon rum

Count On Me
01:59
|

|
A little birdie told me that you're blue
that sad expression tells me that its true
its like a black cloud is over you
it makes you want to scream
well let me tell you my little sugar dumpling
its not as awful as it may seem
everybody does their share of stumbling
despite their best laid schemes
Step back and relax just take breath or two
I've always got your back -
Yeah I am here for you.
The stars above can crash on down
or this big ol' world stop spinning round
that ain't enough to keep me down
you can always count on me
overwrought overstressed
weighed down and mired
every day you get run around
its hard to feel inspired
Step back and relax laugh at the unknown
I've always got your back you needn't feel alone alone
The stars above can crash on down
or this big ol' world stop spinning round
that ain't enough to keep me down
you can always count on me
Don't you fret
you ain't beat yet
you can bet
that everything will work out just fine
The stars above can crash on down
or this big ol' world stop spinning round
that ain't enough to keep me down
you can always count on me

Mister Sunshine
03:32
|
|||
|
its just another day
just like any other day
i wish that i could stay in bed
but i've got bills to pay
i've learned how to hide my sorrow
i've learned how to hide my pain
even though my heart is hollow
everybody knows my name
They call me Mr Sunshine
because of all the joy that i bring
I'm the life of every party
though my heart is shattering
it seems just like yesterday
that my clear skies turned to gray
a post it on my bedroom door
telling me you'd gone away
I've lost sleep searching for a reason
wondering what did I do
your love is all i ever needed
but you took it back out of the blue
They call me Mr Sunshine
because of all the joy i bring
There's a happy smile on my face
though my heart is shattering
I'm one that people call
when they're feeling down
I've got a gift for helping folks
get up off the ground
now i find my heart is broken
beaten up and bruised
I don't know why you said goodbye
I'm feeling so confused
its just another day
just like any other day
i try to get you off my mind
but if fear that you are here to stay
i've learned how to hide my sadness
i've learned how to hide my fear
I wear a happy mask of gladness
the smile covers up my tears
They call me Mr Sunshine
because of all the joy that i bring
I'm the life of every party
though my heart is shattering
They call me Mr Sunshine
because of all the joy i bring
There's a happy smile on my face
though my heart is shattering

I'm Ready
01:58
|

|
I believe
that in this life you've got to keep both eyes open
you make your own luck so don't get stuck just merely hopin'
Be prepared if you want to win lady fortunes favor
boldly dare and you'll become your own savior
when fate knocks on my door- I know for sure Ill be Ready!
Too many people living lives of quiet desperation
who believe they should get a shot without the perspiration
they think their fame should be ordained
because of their existence
they're all the same shot down in flames
they cant go the distance
They cannot see- nothing is free But Ill be ready
for such a long long time
I worked HARD just to toe the line
now is my chance to shine
I'm gonna take whats mine
and if i fail - ill make bail
ill pitch another inning
i won't turn tail I'll prevail
the game is just beginning
Ill win this race
at a pace that is slow but steady
I'll shed joyful tears
amid the cheers and confetti
SO here I go- let's get on with the show
I'm ready

i never knew that lovin' could be so good until I met you.
its elemental, transcendental
and sometimes its sentimental too
my mama tells me that you're trouble
and I should stay away and leave you be
but after what we had last night,
there's no way you're getting rid of me.
You're like Molasses
So thick and sticky and sweet
You're like Molasses
You're my favorite sexy tasty treat
When the lord put you together
he must have been feeling really good
you've been blessed, and you possess
sexiness than any woman should
You're like Molasses
So thick and sticky and sweet
You're like Molasses
You're my favorite sexy tasty treat
You knock me out. make me want to shout
every time you gimmie what you got
you smell so nice, you're my only vice
come on baby come get it one more time
I'm on my knees, so baby please come back inside
and lets work up a sweat
Please don't leave you best believe that you're the best damn lover I have met
You're like Molasses
So thick and sticky and sweet
You're like Molasses
You're my favorite sexy tasty treat

No Trace Of You
03:01

lyrics
Today's a day I'm really happy
a perfect bliss one so rarely finds
Its because I'm not thinking of you.
Theres no trace of you left on my mind
I never wonder where you are or what you're doin.
No nostalgia for the quaint spot we first dined.
Nary a memory of us kissing and cooing
Theres no trace of you left on my mind
When I hear your favorite song, I don't sing along, I can't remember how it goes
It almost seems a waste to discard each little trace of those things you do
That made me fall for you, then ripped my heart in two, what an awful thing to do.
I bet I can't remember what you look like
I finally left my broken heart behind
At last each detail of you is forgotten
Theres no trace of you left on my mind

You And Me
03:14

You make me smile
you make me frown
you build me u-p
you broke me down
how can i remember
when I always forget
seems like yesterday we were
the best of friends
YOU AND ME
anything was possible
but now I see
you became a gossiper
just to hurt me
acting like ms popular
You want to make me someone
ill never be
you made me happy
you made me mad
you made me crazy
you made me sad
i remember what
what you choose to forget
you made me sorry
that we ever met
YOU AND ME
anything was possible
but now I see
you became a gossiper
just to hurt me
acting like ms popular
You want to make me someone
ill never be
YOU AND ME
anything was possible
but now I see
you became a gossiper
just to hurt me
acting like ms popular
You want to make me someone
ill never be
You want the whole world to know your name
you'll do anything you haven't any shame
you talk about me
right behind my back
compensating for
all the things you lack
you try so hard
to be more popular
and yet no one knows
quite who the hell you are
YOU AND ME
anything was possible
but now I see
you became a gossiper
just to hurt me
acting like ms popular
You want to make me someone
ill never be

Just Yesterday
03:34
|

|
time has funny way
of making some memories fade
while keeping others crystal clear
i think about the time
when your sweet love made me shine
and it just reminds me you're not here
I miss your tender kiss
on evenings such as this
it makes me wish
that we'd never met
The missing part of me
used to just let me be
but since you've gone
it won't let me forget
it seems just yesterday
we said the things that lovers say
when their love is still brand new
each night I pray "please take this pain away"
no matter what i say
I can't stop loving you
saw you out the other night
we smiled and waved to be polite
but my smile was holding back my tears
My sadness since you've gone
Should have healed with every dawn
but its gotten worse thru passing years

I Don't Care 2015
03:31

|
you're stepping to me
like you've something to say
you better back the fuck off
because i just don't play
i'm full of dynamite and some t-n-t
you better think twice before you mess with me
you think you can school me
on being a man
you ain't gonna fool me
you better understand
I don't care
that you just another working stiff
who is trying to make ends meet
I don't care that you got yourself a wife and kids
you're still gonna get your ass beat
I don't care that you had yourself a couple drinks
and your sorry for the things you said
i don't care you got stuff to live for
and you won't care either when you're dead
Im chewing on glass
outside waiting on you
thinking about
what I'm about to do
the tougher they are
the harder they cry
pleading like a pussy
before they die
then ill douse you gasoline
set you aflame
while this happening
I'll tell you that you're who's to blame
don't you dare tell me
who you think i should be
don't try to scare me

Matter Of Time
03:36

Its just a matter of time
before you're falling in love again
before you're even forgetting when
a time your heart was broken in two
i swear that its true
I know how you're feeling inside
your heart hurts
and so does your pride
you think that you are in this alone
but I'm here
just as close as your phone
it happens everyday
good people they get betrayed
you've been crying all through the night
It won't be long until you see the light
Its just a matter of time
before you're falling in love again
before you're even forgetting when
a time your heart was broken in two
i swear that its true
you can't get them out of your head
you think maybe its something you said
that kind of thinking's not sane
someday you'll realize that you're not to blame
it happens everyday
good people they get played
hearts crying out in the night
not too long you'll be feeling alright
Its just a matter of time
before you're falling in love again
before you're even forgetting when
a time your heart was broken in two
i swear that its true
Time is a mysterious thing
and the perspective it brings
some day when we remember this night
and you'll see that I'm right
Its just a matter of time
before you're falling in love again
before you're even forgetting when
a time your heart was broken in two
i swear that its true

Go F*ck Yourself

a little birdie told me
that you're blue
feels like the whole world versus you
i can say that its not true
but i still have advice for you
next time you're feeling down
like you're getting the run around
put your sadness on the shelf
and tell the world "GO FUCK YOURSELF"
when you get cut off by that Escalade
or pleading with a meter maid
when your boss has gone too far
and all the others you know who they are
you'll feel better i guarantee
if you repeat after me
next time someone rings your bell
just go ahead and tell them
spell the words out if they're slow
show them a picture or a video
just tell them go fuck themsleves

Everything

if they could see me now
i'm sure they'd all be laughing
if they could see me now
Im sure they'd all be glad
I'm sure they've heard the news
of my life left in ruins
Im sure they've heard
I've lost the only thing i had
Everywhere I go
everything I do
everyone I see
makes me think of you
if they could speak to me
they'd say I had it coming
if they were here right now
I know they’d wish me ill
they don’t understand
that you’ve left me broken
if they could empathize
they'd show me some goodwill
Everywhere I go
everything I do
everyone I see
makes me think of you
I miss your smile most of all
the only joy I can recall
Everywhere I go
everything I do
everyone I see
makes me think of you

If I Believed 2015
03:41

every day i think to myself
i'd like to be somebody else
someone who has it all together
somebody who's smarter and a bit more clever
when we finished school we were off to the races
such grand ideas - bright shining faces
the verve of youth has longs since faded
no lasting sign of what we've created
If I believed in God I would pray for assistance
I'm a heretic or is it indifference
wasted most my life being ruled by my sickness
i really need just a little forgiveness
yeah a little forgiveness
as years go passing by
i've become more existential
i've even stopped asking why
i never reached my true potential
A burden to my family - pariah to my friends
The crushing weight of gravity doesn't seem to end
i make the wrong choices again and again
hoping this will be better
that kind of thinking's not sane
If I believed in God I would pray for salvation
I'm heretic or is it desperation
i lived my life for someone else
I wish I had the strength to forgive myself
yeah to forgive myself
precious months and years
thrown away by fear
washed out with the tide
weighted down by pride
every day i think to myself
just pack those dreams up on the shelf
spend no more time on these foolish endeavors
leave them to those who are younger and clever
put away these childish things
let them go- pronounce them dead
sometimes it makes me want to scream
to stop the voices in my head
If I believed in God I would pray for assistance
I'm a heretic or is it indifference
wasted most my life being ruled by my sickness
i really need just a little forgiveness
yeah a little forgiveness
If I believed in God I would pray for salvation
I'm heretic or is it desperation
i lived my life for someone else
I wish I had the strength to forgive myself
yeah to forgive myself
If I believed in God I would pray for assistance
I'm a heretic or is it indifference
wasted most my life being ruled by my sickness
i really need just a little forgiveness
yeah a little forgiveness

A Little Bit Too Late
03:34

happy new year
its been one year to the day
since i watched you walk away
through those sliding doors
in the past year
I slept in the bed I’ve made
hoping that my love would fade
but it still endures
this emptiness is the price i pay
and know it can’t be any other way
its just a bit too little and a little bit too late
happy new year
you’ve been five years from this place
since I’ve seen your smiling face
and felt something real
i mostly sleep or least so it seems
because only in my dreams
is any joy i feel
my sense of hope used to be innate
that it would all work out - if I’d only wait
but that was a bit too little just a little bit too late
Time keeps passing me by
every day I get a little older
I’m still wondering why
I ever took my arm from around your shoulder
happy new year
its been ten years since you’ve gone
as i face each brand new dawn
I burn for you
each day I wake up with a little bit more fear
becoming crystal clear
that my time is through
as i fade into the darkness
i’ve held on tight until this very day
but its was a bit too little and a little bit too late

State Of Mind
03:49

I never thought i could be this happy
I never thought skies that could be so bright
I never dreamed in my imagination
that i'd ever find a love that feels this right
Love is just a state of mind
and i find
that i shine
when your sweet loves mine
I searched so long
tryin to find
a love so strong
that really blows my mind
before you came I was so apprehensive
so hurt inside - i feared the unknown
when you took my hand with no hesitation
I knew I wouldn't be alone
Love is just a state of mind
and i find
that i shine
when your sweet loves mine
I searched so long
tryin to find
a love so strong
that really blows my mind
I know
that something deep inside
makes me feel so free
just like i can fly
come fly away with
VERSE 3
me
you and me
we can just fly away
yeah we can just fly away
I never dreamed in my imagination
that i'd ever find a love that feels this right
Love is just a state of mind
and i find
that i shine
when your sweet loves mine
I searched so long
tryin to find
a love so strong
that really blows my mind

Can't Go Back
03:12
|

|
I've always thought myself a bigger picture thinker
assess a problem and then shoot from the cuff
Can't say for sure if I believe in being Lucky
but most my life it's been more than enough
Now I wonder if I made the right choices
listened to the right people's voices
thinking 'bout all the paths not taken
are the dreams of youth still worth chasing?
I can't go back I know that's true
but I can change my destination
I Can be someone brand new
it just takes imagination
The road of life defies all our understanding
yet we keep trying almost in vain
fortunes crumble despite our careful planning
for some reason we just can't explain
I want much more than tranquil life suburban
in a world that seems so much more uncertain
i played it safe when I was so much younger
but never lost that deeply burning hunger
I can't go back I know that's true
but I can change my destination
I can become someone new
it just takes imagination
Going around in circles
getting nowhere fast
jumping every hurdle
running from the past
Playing make believe
when we were small children
In our minds worlds we'd be building
We grow up riddled with out self deception
say its not real but it's all about perception
I can't go back I know that's true
but I can change my destination
I can become someone new
it just takes imagination

Sinking
01:18

You and I see eye to eye
on the essential topics
like we both prefer the tropics
to an icy snow covered view
you and and me
always seem to be
synchronized in what we’re thinking
except I’m slowly sinking
yeah I’m falling in love with you
You’re my inamorata
persona satis grata
and a Cole Porter lyric or two
I don’t care for any others
and if i had my druthers
I would live out in the suburbs with you
We’re the best of friends
but I can’t pretend that
I don’t want more from you
Shall I find the door and simply Adieu?
or could it be you might you be sinking too?

Head Over Heels
03:31
|
|||
|
we've known each other
for so long now
and I know how
you've been depressed
you have sat around
all broken hearted
for love thats departed
you never guessed
i have been head over heels for you
since the day we met i adore you
amid my fear I stand here before you
i hope you're not upset
at last i have the courage
to ask you after all this time
this year will you be
be my valentine.
to keep
my secret
my will had to be strong
we'd been friends for so long
i was scared
to lose you
as my best friend
i could never
say words sufficiently clever
with my heart bared
i have been head over heels for you
since the day we met i adore you
amid my fear I stand here before you
i hope you're not upset
at last i have the courage
to ask you after all this time
this year will you
will you be my Valentine.
Flowers wither wilt and die
so i wrote this song i'll tell you why
if you
give me your hand
I will take it
i'll never forsake it
i'll always be
the one
whom you
can always depend on
when things all go wrong
you can count on me
have been head over heels for you
since the day we met i adore you
amid my fear I stand here before you
i hope you're not upset
at last i have the courage
to ask you after all this time
this year will you
will you be my Valentine.
