Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
Lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
I've been breakin' hearts a long time, and
Toyin' with them older guys
Just to play things for me to use
Something happened for the first time, in
The darkest little paradise, shakin'
Pacin', I just need you
For you, I would cross the line
I would waste my time
I would lose my mind
They say she's gone too far this time
Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
Lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
Oh, lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
My name is whatever you decide
And I'm just gonna call you mine
I'm insane, but I'm your baby (your baby)
Echoes, love your name inside my mind
Halo, hiding my obsession
I once was poison ivy
But now I'm your daisy
And baby, for you, I would fall from grace
Just to touch your face
If you walk away
I'd beg you on my knees to stay
Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
Lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
Oh, lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
I get so high, oh
Every time, yeah every time you're lovin' me
You're lovin' me
Trip of my life, oh
Every time, yeah every time you're touchin' me
You're touchin' me
Every time, yeah every time you're lovin' me
Oh, lord, save me
My drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
Usin' for the rest of my life, oh
Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
(doin' it right, no)
Lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life, oh
Don't blame me, love made me crazy
If it doesn't, you ain't doin' it right
(you ain't doin' it...)
Oh, lord, save me, my drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
(I'll be usin', I'll be usin')
I get so high, oh
Every time, yeah every time you're lovin' me
You're lovin' me
Oh, lord, save me
My drug is my baby
I'd be usin' for the rest of my life
Usin' for the rest of my life, oh |
My mama stood across the room
Face to face but never eye to eye
Recalling words we said
The battle that we swore we'd never fight
Breaking pieces off with every line
A tear came to her eye, and she said
Don't walk away now and
Don't rip my heart out
Don't you block me out tonight
Honey, where are you
Don't hate me for loving you
He walked around my life
And made me blind with every single move
He caught me staring at him
Mad about him, little that I knew
Love is different when you play the fool
And all I wanna do is say
Don't walk away now and
Don't rip my heart out
Don't you make me cry tonight
Like you always do
Don't hate me for loving you
I slammed the door, sat on the porch
And cried into my hands and said
“Are you there do you even care”
To the cross above my head
And someone said
Don't turn away now and
Don't rip my heart out
Things are meant to happen like this
I know it's rough on you
Don't hate me for loving you
I looked up at the sky
Face to face and finally eye to eye |
Hey, I knew I'd run into you somewhere
It's been a while, I didn't mean to stare
I heard she's nothin' like me
I'm sure she'll make you happy
But don't you
Don't you smile at me and ask me how I've been
Don't you say you've missed me if you don't want me again
You don't know how much I feel I love you still
So why don't you, don't you?
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Sometimes I really wish that I could hate you
I've tried, but that's just somethin' I can't do
My heart knows what the truth is
I swore I wouldn't do this
But don't you
Don't you smile at me and ask me how I've been
Don't you say you've missed me if you don't want me again
You don't know how much I feel I love you still
So why don't you, don't you?
So I walk outta here tonight
Try to go on with my life
And you can say, "We're still friends"
I don't wanna pretend
So if I see you again
Don't you (Don't you)
Don't you smile at me and ask me how I've been
Don't you (Don't you) , say you've missed me if you don't want me again
You don't (You don't) , know how much I feel I love you still
So why don't you, don't you?
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Don't you, ah, ah, ah |
I like the way you wanted me,
Every night for so long baby,
I like the way you needed me,
Everytime 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,
And 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 hold me,
Every night, for so long baby
I like the way you say my name
Everytime 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)
But I'd rather you be mean,
Than love and lie,
And 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
You would run around and lead 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,
And 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 |
Hey, Dorothea, do you ever stop and think about me?
When we were younger down in the park
Honey, making a lark of the misery
You got shiny friends since you left town
A tiny screen's the only place I see you now
And I got nothing but well-wishes for ya
Ooh, this place is the same as it ever was
Ooh, but you don't like it that way
It's never too late to come back to my side
The stars in your eyes shined brighter in Tupelo
And if you're ever tired of bеing known for who you know
You know, you'll always know me, Dorothea (Uh-uh)
Dorothea (Ah-ah)
Ooh, you'rе a queen sellin' dreams
Sellin' makeup and magazines
Ooh, from you I'd buy anything
Hey, Dorothea, do you ever stop and think about me?
When it was calmer, skipping the prom
just to piss off your mom and her pageant schemes
And damn, Dorothea, they all wanna be ya
But are you still the same soul I met
under the bleachers? Well
Ooh, I guess I'll never know
Ooh, and you'll go on with the show
But it's never too late to come back to my side
The stars in your eyes shined brighter in Tupelo
And if you're ever tired of being known for who you know
You know, you'll always know me, Dorothea (Uh-uh)
Dorothea (Ah-ah)
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Dorothea (Ah-ah-ah)
Ah-ah
Ooh |
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
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
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
In 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
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
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
Down came the rain |
Our secret moments
in a crowded room
They got no idea about me and you
There is an indentation in the shape of you
Made your mark on me
a golden tattoo
All of this silence and patience
pining and anticipation
My hands are shaking
from holding back from you
All of this silence and patience
pining and desperately waiting
My hands are shaking from all this
Ah, ha, ha, ha-ah
Say my name and everything just stops
I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah
Carve your name into my bedpost
'Cause I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah
Inescapable, I'm not even gonna try
And if I get burned
at least we were electrified
I'm spilling wine in the bathtub
You kiss my face and we're both drunk
Everyone thinks that they know us
But they know nothing about-
All of this silence and patience
pining and anticipation
My hands are shaking
from holding back from you
Ha, ah, ah
All of this silence and patience
pining and desperately waiting
My hands are shaking from all this
Ah, ha, ha, ha-ah
Say my name and everything just stops
I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah
Carve your name into my bedpost
'Cause I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
Take it oh, ha, ha...
Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah-ah
Only bought this dress
so you could take it off
Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah-ah
Only bought this dress
so you could take it off
Flashback when you met me
Your buzzcut and my hair bleached
Even in my worst times
you could see the best in me
Flashback to my mistakes
My rebounds, my earthquakes
Even in my worst lies
you saw the truth in me
And I woke up just in time
Now I wake up by your side
My one and only, my lifeline
I woke up just in time
Now I wake up by your side
My hands shake
I can't explain this
Ah, ha, ha, ha-ah
Say my name and everything just stops...
I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah
Carve your name into my bedpost
'Cause I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
Take it oh, ha, ha, ha-ah
There is an indentation in the shape of you
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off
You made your mark on me, golden tattoo
Only bought this dress so
you could take it off |
It was painted red
The stripe was white
It was 18 feet from val to stern light
It was 2nd hand, from a dealer in Atlanta
I rode up with daddy when he went there to get her
We put on a shine, put on a motor
Built out of love, it made for water
We ran her for years, til' the transister got rotten
A piece of my child hood will never be forgotten
It was just an old plywood boat
A 75 Johnson, an electric choke
A young boy two hands on the wheel
I can't replace the way it made me feel
I would turn her sharp, I would make it wide
He said you can't beat the way
A old wood boat rides
Just a little lake across the Alabama line
But I was king of the ocean
When Daddy let me drive
Just an old half ton short bed ford
My Uncle bought new in 64
Daddy got it right cause the engine was smoking
A couple of burnt valves and he got it going
He'd let me drive her when we haul off a load
Off a dirt strip where we'd dump trash
Off of thickpin road
I'd sit up in the seat and stretch my feet to the pedals
Smiling like a hero
Who just received his medal
It was just an old hand me down ford
With 3 speed on the column and a dent in the door
A young boy two hands on the wheel
I can't replace the way it made me feel
I would press that clutch, and I would keep it right
He would say just a little slower son
You're doing just fine
Just a little dirt road with trash on each side
But I was Mario Andretti
When Daddy let me drive
I'm grown up now
3 daughters of my own
I let them drive my old jeep
Across the pastior at our home
Maybe one day they'll reach back in their file
And pull out that old memory
And think of me and smile
And say
It was just an old worn out jeep
Rusty old floor boards
Hot on my feet
A young girl two hands on the wheel
I can't replace the way it made me feel
Turn it left, and steer it right
Straighten up girl, you're doing just fine
Just a little valley by the river where we'd ride
But I was high on a mountain
When Daddy let me drive
Daddy let me drive
Oh he let me drive
She's just old plywood boat
With a 75 johnson
And electric choke |
She didn't have a reason to go, oh no
She didn't have a reason to stay either way
She didn't tell anyone by the first reason
She looked at her keys and found a reason to run
And time stands still when you're nowhere bound
But I understand it somehow
If I could drive all night
Would I find my peace of mind
Would it be a million miles of cold white lights
And unfamiliar exit signs
I'd just drive on by
Just south of knowing why
I didn't really know her that well but I could tell
That her smile was only something to hide behind
She felt so out of touch 'cause she just felt too much
And you don't know what you want nothing's ever enough
And time stands still when you're nowhere bound
That's where I'm headed right now
If I could drive all night
Would I find my peace of mind
Would it be a million miles of cold white lights
And unfamiliar exit signs
I'd just drive on by
Just south of knowing why
I don't have a plan
I don't have a map
I don't even know if
I'm ever coming back
I don't have a when and I don't have a where
I don't even know if I'll know when I'm there
But if I could drive all night
Would I find my peace of mind
Would it be a million miles of cold white lights
And unfamiliar exit signs
I'd just drive on by... I'd just drive on by
Drive on... drive on... drive all night
If I'd just drive on... drive on... drive all night
Just south of knowing why |
Now he's back in the atmosphere
With drops of jupiter in his hair
He walks like summer and talks like rain
Reminds me that there's a time to change
Since the return of his stay on the moon
He listens like spring and he talks like June
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
Now he's back from that soul vacation
Chasing his way through the constellation
He checks out mozart while he does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow
Now he's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that he might think of me as
Plain or jane told a story about a man
Who was 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 in the 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 stickin up for you
even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance
Freeze dried romance
5 hour phone conversation
The best soy latte' that you ever had and...Me?
But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the milky way?
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
Can you imagine, no love, pride, deep fried chicken
Your best friend always stickin up for you
even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance
Freeze dried romance
5 hour phone conversation
The best soy latte' that you ever had and...Me? |
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 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
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? 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 |
There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered "have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make it's way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
The lingering question kept me up
2am, who do you love?
I wonder till I'm wide awake
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say,
It was enchanting to meet you
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again
These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you |
I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me, we got big reputations
Ah, and you heard about me
Oh, I got some big enemies
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me would be a big conversation
Ah, and I heard about you
Ooh, you like the bad ones, too
You so dope, but no overdose
I'm so stoked, I need toast
We do the most
I'm in the Ghost
Like I'm whipping a boat
I got a reputation, girl
That don't precede me
I'm a call away whenever you need me (yeah)
I'm in a G5 (yeah)
Come to the A side (yeah)
I got a bad boy persona
That's what they like (what they like)
You love it, I love it, too
'Cause you my type (you my type)
You hold me down and I protect you with my life
I don't wanna touch you
I don't wanna be
Just another ex love you don't wanna see
I don't wanna miss you
Like the other girls do
I don't wanna hurt you
I just wanna be
Drinking on a beach with you all over me
I know what they all say
But I ain't tryna play
I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game
Knew her when I was young
Reconnected
When we were little bit older
Both sprung
I got issues and chips
On both of my shoulders
Reputation precedes me
In rumors I'm knee deep
The truth it
It's easier to ignore it
Believe me
Even when we'd argue
We'd not do it for long
And you understand
The good and bad end up in a song
For all your beautiful traits
And the way you do it with ease
For all my flaws, paranoia
And insecurities
I've made mistakes and made some choices
Is that's hard to deny
After the storm
Something was born on the 4th of July
Our past days were the fun
This endgame is the one
With four words on the tip of my tongue
I'll never say it
I don't wanna touch you
I don't wanna be
Just another ex love you don't wanna see
I don't wanna miss you
(I don't wanna miss you)
Like the other girls do
I don't wanna hurt you
I just wanna be
Drinking on a beach with you all over me
I know what they all say
(I know what they all say)
But I ain't tryna play
I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me, we got a big reputations
Ah, and you heard about me
Oh, I got some big enemies
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me would be a big conversation
Ah, and I heard about you
Ooh, you like the bad ones, too
I hit you like bang
We tried to forget it
But we just couldn't
And I bury hatchets
But I keep maps of where I put 'em
Reputation precedes me
They told you I'm crazy
I swear I don't love the drama
It loves me
And I can't let you go
Your hand prints on my soul
It's like your eyes are liquor
It's like your body is gold
You've been calling my bluff on
All my usual tricks
So here's a truth from my red lips
I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game
I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game |
Keep your helmet, keep your life, son
Just a flesh wound, here's your rifle
Crawling up the beaches now
"Sir, I think he's bleeding out"
And some things you just can't speak about
With you I serve, with you I fall down, down
Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out
Something med school did not cover
Someone's daughter, someone's mother
Holds your hand through plastic now
"Doc, I think she's crashing out"
And some things you just can't speak about
Only twenty minutes to sleep
But you dream of some epiphany
Just one single glimpse of relief
To make some sense of what you've seen
With you I serve, with you I fall down, down (Down)
Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out
With you I serve, with you I fall down (Down) , down (Down)
Watch you breathe in (Watch you breathe in)
Watch you breathing out (Out) , out (Out)
Only twenty minutes to sleep
But you dream of some epiphany
Just one single glimpse of relief
To make some sense of what you've seen |
Gray November
I've been down since July
Motion capture
Put me in a bad light
I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone
Trying to find the one where I went wrong
Writing letters
Addressed to the fire
And I was catching my breath
Staring out an open window
Catching my death
And I couldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peculiar
That this pain would be for
Evermore
Hey December
Guess I'm feeling unmoored
Can't remember
What I used to fight for
I rewind thе tape but all it does is pause
On thе very moment, all was lost
Sending signals
To be double-crossed
And I was catching my breath
Barefoot in the wildest winter
Catching my death
And I couldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peculiar
That this pain would be for
Evermore
(Evermore)
Can't not think of all the cost
And the things that will be lost
Oh, can we just get a pause?
To be certain, we'll be tall again
Whether weather be the frost
Or the violence of the dog days
I'm on waves, out being tossed
Is there a line that I could just go cross?
And when I was shipwrecked (Can't think of all the cost)
I thought of you (All the things that will be lost now)
In the cracks of light (Can we just get a pause?)
I dreamed of you (To be certain we'll be tall again, if you think of all the costs)
It was real enough (Whether weather be the frost)
To get me through (Or the violence of the dog days) (Or the violence of the dog days)
(I'm on waves, out being tossed)
(I'm on waves, out being tossed)
I swear (Is there a line that we could just go cross?)
You were there
And I was catching my breath
Floors of a cabin creaking under my step
And I couldn't be sure
I had a feeling so peculiar
This pain wouldn't be for
Evermore
Evermore
Evermore
This pain wouldn't be for evermore
Evermore |
All I knew this morning when I woke
Is I know something now
Know something now I didn't before
And all I've seen since 18 hours ago
Is green eyes and freckles and your smile
In the back of my mind making me feel right
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you know you know you
Cause all I know is we said hello
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name, everything has changed
All I know is we held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
And all my walls stood tall painted blue
But I'll take them down
Take them down and open up the door for you
And all I feel in my stomach
Is butterflies the beautiful kind
Making up for lost time, taking flight
Making me feel right
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you know you know you
Cause all I know is we said hello
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name, everything has changed
All I know is we held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
Come back and tell me why
I'm feeling like I've missed you all this time
And meet me there tonight
And let me know that it's not all in my mind
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you know you know you
Cause all I know is we said hello
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name, everything has changed
All I know is we held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
All I know is we said hello
So dust off your highest hopes
All I know is pouring rain
And everything has changed
All I know is a newfound brightness
All my days, I'll know your face
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed |
All I knew this morning when I woke
Is I know something now
Know something now I didn't before
And all I've seen since 18 hours ago
Is green eyes and freckles and your smile
In the back of my mind making me feel right
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you know you know you
Cause all I know is we said hello
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name, everything has changed
All I know is we held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
And all my walls stood tall painted blue
But I'll take them down
Take them down and open up the door for you
And all I feel in my stomach
Is butterflies the beautiful kind
Making up for lost time, taking flight
Making me feel right
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you better know
You better know you better now
I just want to know you know you know you
Cause all I know is we said hello

And your smile in the back of my mind making me feel like
I just want to know you better, know you better

And all my walls stood tall, painted blue
But I'll take ‘em down, take ‘em down
And open up the door for you
And all I feel in my stomach is butterflies, the beautiful kind
Makin' up for lost time, takin' flight making me feel like
I just want to know you better, know you better
know you better now
I just want to know you better, know you better

All I know is we said hello
So dust off your highest hopes
All I know is pouring rain
And everything has changed
All I know is a newfound grace
All my days I'll know your face
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed |
Everybody's waiting, everybody's watching
Even when you're sleeping, keep your 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 stepped into a cruel world
Where everybody stands and keeps score
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting for you to break down
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping, keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your 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, now they've surrounded you
It's a 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 just gotta keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting for you to break down
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping, keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes...
Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night goes dark
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting for you to break down
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping, keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open |
Isn't it funny how many times we can say
We've drawn the line, crossed it out, turned 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*
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
I'll fall back on you
We always let someone come in between
Talking around the truth never saying what we mean
Look at all this wasted time
I won't tell nobody
I won't tell my friends
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 finally see
There are people you just come back to
So fall back on me
I'll 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 maybe
You'll get along with me
You and me
Baby this is what we do
I see, see
There are people that you come back to
Fall back on me
Baby I'll fall back on you
Fall back on me
Baby I'll fall back on you
Fall back on you |
We were crazy to think
Crazy to think that this could work
Remember how I said I'd die for you?
We were stupid to jump
In the ocean separating us
Remember how I'd fly to you?
And I can't talk to you when you're like this
Staring out the window
Like I'm not your favorite town
I'm New York City
I still do it for you, babe
They all warned us about times like this
They say the road gets hard and you get lost
When you're led by blind faith, blind faith
But we might just get away with it
Religion's in your lips
Even if it's a false god
We'd still worship
We might just get away with it
The altar is my hips
Even if it's a false god
We'd still worship this love
We'd still worship this love
We'd still worship this love
I know heaven's a thing
I go there when you touch me, honey
Hell is when I fight with you
But we can patch it up good
Make confessions and we're begging for forgiveness
Got the wine for you
And you can't talk to me when I'm like this
Daring you to leave me just so I can try and scare you
You're the West Village
You still do it for me, babe
They all warned us about times like this
They say the road gets hard and you get lost
When you're led by blind faith, blind faith
But we might just get away with it
Religion's in your lips
Even if it's a false god
We'd still worship
We might just get away with it
The altar is my hips
Even if it's a false god
We'd still worship this love
We'd still worship this love
We'd still worship this love, ah
Still worship this love
Even if it's a false god
Even if it's a false god
Still worship this love |
There's somethin' 'bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement
You walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah
Oh yeah
We're drivin' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard
not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absent mindedly makin' me want you
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
So baby drive slow
‘Til we run out of road
in this one horse town
I wanna stay right here
in this passenger's seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now capture it, remember it
Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Well you stood there with me in the doorway
My hands shake
I'm not usually this way but
You pull me in and I'm a little more brave
It's the first kiss,
It's flawless,
Really something,
It's fearless.
Oh yeah
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I would dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
'Cause I don't know how
it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I would dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Oh oh
oh yeah |
There's something 'bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement, you walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot, yeah
Oh, yeah
We're driving down the road, I wonder if you know
I'm trying so hard not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool, run your hands through your hair
Absent-mindedly making me want you
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless
So, baby, drive slow 'til we run out of road in this one-horse town
I wanna stay right here, in this passenger's seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now, capture it, remember it
'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance

You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
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
[chorus]
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 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 out of here as soon as we can
And then you're on you're very first date
And he's got a car and you're feeling like flying
And you're mama'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
[chorus]
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
[chorus]
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
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la ....
Your very first day
Take a deep breath girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors |
You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the mornin' of your very first day
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
Hopin' 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
feelin' like there's nothin' 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
Laughin' 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 feelin' like flyin'
And your mama's waitin' up and you're thinkin' he's the one
And you're dancin' '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
And 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

La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
Your very first day
Take a deep breath, girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors |
Someone struck a match against the night
All I could see was you and I
It was captivating
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
Some things are beautiful and free
And just 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
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, firefly
I wish I could keep you, firefly
Firefly... |
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'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
You were always there when I needed
You could always see me clearly and
You were never looking for a thing
You...I'm singing one for you
It would've been cool to never fall down
But then I never would've seen
That power isn't with the picture-perfect person
You taught me better things 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
You were always there when I needed
You could always see me clearly and
You were never looking for a thing
You...I'm singing one for 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
You were always there when I needed
You could always see me clearly and
You were never looking for a thing
You...I'm singing one for you |
Once upon a time
I believe it was a tuesday when I caught your eye
And we caught onto something
I hold onto the night
You looked me in the eye and told me you loved me
Were you just kidding?
Cause it seems to me, this thing is breaking down
We almost never speak
I don't feel welcome anymore
Baby what happened, please tell me?
Cause one second it was perfect
Now you're halfway out the door
And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called
And then you feel so low you can't feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when he said
Forever and always
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
Cause I was there when you said forever and always
Was I out of line?
Did I say something way too honest
That made you run and hide
like a scared little boy
I looked into you in the eyes
Thought I knew you for a minute
Now I'm not so sure
So heres everything coming down to nothing
Heres to silence that cuts me to the core
Where is this going?
thought I knew for a minute
But I don't anymore
And I stare at the phone, he still hasnt called
And then you feel so low you can't feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when he said
Forever and always
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
Cause I was there when you said forever and always
You didn't mean it baby, I don't think so
Back up, baby, back up
Did you forget everything
Back up, baby, back up
Did you forget everything
Cause it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
Cause I was there when you said forever and always
Oh, I stare at the phone, he still hasnt called
And then you feel so low you can't feel nothing at all
And you flashback to when we said
Forever and always
And it rains in your bedroom
Everything is wrong
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone
Cause I was there when you said forever and always
You didn't mean it baby

I don't think so yeah |

He says he doesn't believe
anything much he hears these days
He says, "Why fall in love
just so you can watch it go away? "
He spends most of his nights
wishing it was how it used to be
He spends most of his flights getting pulled down by gravity
I call, just checking up on him
He's up, 3 A. M. , pacing
He says, "It's not just a phase I'm in"
My voice comes out begging
All this time I didn't know
You were breaking down
I'd fall to pieces on the floor
If you weren't around
Too young to know it gets better
I'll be summer sun for you forever
Forever winter if you go
He seems fine most of the time
Forcing smiles and never minds
His laugh is a symphony
When the lights go out, it's hard to breathe
I pull at every thread trying to solve the puzzles in his head
Live my life scared to death he'll decide to leave instead
I call, just checking up on him
He's up, 5 A. M. , wasted
Long gone, not even listening
My voice comes out screaming
All this time I didn't know
You were breaking down
I'd fall to pieces on the floor
If you weren't around
Too young to know it gets better
I'll be summer sun for you forever
Forever winter if you go
If I was standing there in your apartment
I'd take that bomb in your head and disarm it
I'd say I love you even at your darkest and
Please don't go
I didn't know
You were breaking down
I'd fall to pieces on the floor
If you weren't around
Too young to know it gets better
I'll be summer sun for you forever
Forever winter if you go
I'll be your summer sun forever
At 3 A. M. , pacing
All this time I didn't know
At 5 A. M. , wasted
I'd be in pieces on the floor
Forever winter if you go
He says he doesn't believe anything
much he hears these days
I say, "Believe in one thing, I won't go away" |
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
It was the best of times, the worst of crimes
I struck a match and blew your mind
But I didn't mean it
And you didn't see it
The ties were black, the lies
were white
In shades of grey in candlelight
I wanted to leave him
I needed a reason
X marks the spot where we fell apart
He poisoned the well, I was
lyin' to myself
I knew it from the first old fashioned
We were cursed
We never had a shotgun shot in the dark
You were drivin' the getaway car
We were flyin', but we'd never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Think about the place
Where you first met me
Ridin' in a getaway car
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
Should've known I'd be the first to leave
Think about the place
Where you first met me
In a getaway car, oh-oh
No, they never get far, oh-ahh
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
It was the great escape, the prison break
The light of freedom on my face
But you weren't thinkin'
And I was just drinkin'
Well, he was runnin' after us
I was screamin', "go, go, go! "
But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow
And a circus ain't a love story
And now we're both sorry
(we're both sorry)
X marks the spot where we fell apart
He poisoned the well, every man for himself
I knew it from the first old fashioned
We were cursed
It hit you like a shotgun
Shot to the heart
You were drivin' the getaway car
We were flyin', but we'd never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Think about the place
Where you first met me
Ridin' in a getaway car
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
I shoulda known I'd be the first to leave
Think about the place
Where you first met me
In a getaway car, oh-oh
No, they never get far, oh-ahh
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde
Until I switch to the other side
To the other si-I-I-I-ide
It's no surprise I turned you in
'Cause us traitors never win
I'm in a getaway car
I left you in a motel bar
Put the money in a bag
and I stole the keys
That was the last time you ever saw me
Drivin' the getaway car
We were flyin', but we never get far
(don't pretend)
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Think about the place where
you first met me
Ridin' in a getaway car
There were sirens in the beat
of your heart (should've known)
Should've known I'd be
the first to leave
Think about the place
where you first met me
In a getaway car, oh-oh
No, we never get far, oh-ahh
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
Ridin' in a getaway car
I was cryin' in a getaway car
I was dyin' in a getaway car
Said goodbye in a getaway car
Ridin' in a getaway car
I was cryin' in a getaway car
I was dyin' in a getaway car
Said goodbye in a getaway car |
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that.
I don't even know her,
But I feel a responsibility,
To do what's upstanding and right,
It's kinda like a code, yeah,
And you've been getting closer and closer,
And crossing so many lines.

If I was a stupid girl,

You're the kind of man who makes me sad,
While she waits up,
You chase down the newest thing,
And take for granted what you have.
And it would be a fine proposition,
If I was a stupid girl,
And yeah I might go with it,
If I hadn't once been just like her.

Gleaming, twinkling
Eyes like sinking ships on waters
So inviting, I almost jump in
But I don't like a gold rush, gold rush
I don't like anticipatin'
my face in a red flush
I don't like that anyone
would die to feel your touch
Everybody wants you
Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush
I don't like slow motion
double vision in rose blush
I don't like that falling feels
like flying 'til the bone crush
Everybody wants you
But I don't like a gold rush
What must it be like to grow up that beautiful?
With your hair falling into place like dominoes
I see me padding across your wooden floors
With my Eagles t-shirt hanging from the door
At dinner parties, I call you out on your contrarian shit
And the coastal town we wandered 'round
had nеver seen a love as pure as it
And thеn it fades into the gray of my day-old tea
'Cause it could never be
'Cause I don't like a gold rush, gold rush
I don't like anticipatin'
my face in a red flush
I don't like that anyone
would die to feel your touch
Everybody wants you
Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush
I don't like slow motion
Double vision in rose blush
I don't like that falling feels
Like flying 'til the bone crush
Everybody wants you
But I don't like a gold rush
What must it be like to grow up that beautiful?
With your hair falling into place like dominoes
My mind turns your life into folklore
I can't dare to dream about you anymore
At dinner parties I won't call you out on your contrarian shit
And the coastal town we never found
will never see a love as pure as it
'Cause it fades into the gray of my day-old tea
'Cause it will never be
Gleaming, twinkling
Eyes like sinking ships on waters
So inviting, I almost jump in |
Gorgeous
You should take it as a compliment
That I got drunk
And made fun of the way you talk
You should think about the consequence
Of your magnetic field
Being a little too strong
And I got a boyfriend, he's older than us
He's in the club doing I don't know what
You're so cool, it makes me hate you so much
(I hate you so much)
Whiskey on ice, sunset and vine
You've ruined my life by not being mine
You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
'cause look at your face
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
But what can I say?
You're gorgeous
You should take it as a compliment
That I'm talking to everyone here but you
(but you, but you)
And, you should think about the consequence
Of you touching my hand in a darkened room
(dark room, dark room)
If you got a girlfriend, I'm jealous of her
But if you're single, it's honestly worse
'cause you're so gorgeous, it actually hurts
(honey, it hurts)
Ocean blue eyes, looking in mine
I feel like I might sink
And drown and die
You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
(to your face)
'cause look at your face
(look at your face)
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
(feel this way)
But what can I say?
You're gorgeous
You make me so happy
It turns back to sad (yeah)
There's nothing I hate more
Than what I can't have (and)
You are so gorgeous
It makes me so mad (mmh)
You make me so happy
It turns back to sad (yeah)
There's nothing I hate more
Than what I can't have (and)
Guess I'll just stumble on home to my cats (ugh)
Alone
Unless you wanna come along
You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
(to your face)
'cause look at your face
(look at your face)
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
(feel this way)
But what can I say? (I say)
You're gorgeous
You make me so happy
It turns back to sad (yeah)
There's nothing I hate more
Than what I can't have (and)
You are so gorgeous
It makes me so mad (mmh)
You're gorgeous
You make me so happy
It turns back to sad (turns back to sad)
There's nothing I hate more
Than what I can't have (what I can't have)
You are so gorgeous
It makes me so mad (mmh)
You're gorgeous |
My name's Gracie
I'll be five in May
Kinda scared 'cause
I never been on a plane
My mama says that it'll be alright
'Cause I'm gunna see my daddy tonight
And she says that
There's a whole a lot of good people in Heaven
An' I don't wanna get there too soon
And I know there's a God because I met him
And I see it when I'm looking at you
There ain't no accidents in what we do
My name's Heather
Guess we're on the same flight
Don't mind Gracie
She could talk to you all night
She's finally well enough to travel
(The) doctor says she's in the clear
She's been in and out of hospital
Since the beginning of the year
And there's a whole a lot of good people in Heaven
But none of us want to get there too soon
And I know there's a God because I met him
And I see it when I'm looking at you
There ain't no accidents in what we do
James T. Johnson
That's her daddy's name
He's been overseas
It'll be a year today
He never talked about being scared over the phone
He just said me and Gracie will come and take him on
There's a whole a lot of good people in Heaven
And I don't wanna get there too soon
And I know there's a God because I met him
And I see it when I'm looking at you
There ain't no accidents in what we do
And the people that we meet
As we go through the rain
There are no accidents in what we do |
I was born in the arms of imaginary friends
Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been
Then you come crashing in
Like the realest thing
Trying my best to understand
All that your love can bring
Oh, half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
Half of my heart takes time
Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you that
I can't keep loving you
Oh, half of my heart
I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else
I made a plan, stayed the man who can only love himself
Lonely was the song I sang
'Til the day you came
Showing me a better way and all that my love can bring
Oh, half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
Half of my heart takes time
Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you that
I cant keep loving you
Oh, half of my heart
with half of my heart
Your faith is strong
But I can only fall so far so long
Time to hold, later on
You will hate that I never gave more to you
than half of my heart
But I can't stop loving you
But I can't stop loving you
But I can't stop loving you
With half of my, half of my heart
Oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart's got a real good imagination
Half of my heart's got you
Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That half of my heart won't do
Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding to a bride
with a paper ring
Half of my heart is the part of a man
who's never really loved anything
Oh, half of my heart
Oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart
Oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart
Oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart |
Honey, when I'm above the trees
I see this for what it is
But now I'm right down in it, all the years I've given
Is just shit we're dividin' up
Showed you all of my hiding spots
I was dancing when the music stopped
And in the disbelief, I can't face reinvention
I haven't met the new me yet
There'll be happiness after you
But there was happiness because of you
Both of these things can be true
There is happiness
Past the blood and bruise
Past the curses and cries
Beyond the terror in the nightfall
Haunted by the look in my eyes
That would've loved you for a lifetime
Leave it all behind
And there is happiness
Tell me, when did your winning smile
Begin to look like a smirk?
When did all our lessons start to look like weapons
Pointed at my deepest hurt?
I hope she'll be your beautiful fool
Who takes my spot next to you
No, I didn't mean that
Sorry, I can't see facts through all of my fury
You haven't met the new me yet
There'll be happiness after me
But there was happiness because of me
Both of these things, I believe
There is happiness
In our history, across our great divide
There is a glorious sunrise
Dappled with the flickers of light
From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind
And there is happiness
I can't make it go away by making you a villain
I guess it's the price I paid for seven years in Heaven
And I pulled your body into mine
Every goddamn night, now I get fake niceties
No one teaches you what to do
When a good man hurts you
And you know you hurt him, too
Honey, when I'm above the trees
I see it for what it is
But now my eyes leak acid rain on the pillow
where you used to lay your head
After giving you the best I had
Tell me what to give after that
All you want from me now is the green light of forgiveness
You haven't met the new me yet
And I think she'll give you that
There'll be happiness after you
But there was happiness because of you, too
Both of these things can be true
There is happiness
In our history, across our great divide
There is a glorious sunrise
Dappled with the flickers of light
From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind
Oh, leave it all behind
Leave it all behind
And there is happiness |
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 its all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake
Oh, 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 watch you walk away
From everything we had
But, I still mean every word I said to you
He will 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, holding my breath
Won't see you again
Something keeps me holding onto 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
But I never thought I'd see it break
Never thought I'd see it |
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
Here I go |

I bet your window is rolled down and your hair is pulled back
And I bet you got no idea you are going way too fast
You try not to think about what went wrong
You try not to stop, do you get where are you going?
You try to stay away so I bet you turn on the radio
And the song goes
(Taylor)
I can't live without you
I can't live without you baby
I can't live without you
I can't live without you baby, oh baby
(Tim)
The highway won't hold you tonight
The highway don't know you are alive
The highway don't care if you are all alone
But I do, I do
The highway won't dry your tears
The highway don't need you here
The highway don't care if you are coming home
But I do, I do
(Tim + Taylor)
I bet you got a dead cellphone on your shotgun seat
Yeah I bet you band and god dear, that you're talking about me
You're tryin' not to left the first to fall out
Tryin' not to think about turning around
Tryin' not to get lost in the sound
But that song is always on so you sing along

I can't live without you
I can't live without you baby
I can't live without you
I can't live without you baby, oh baby

My only one
My smoking gun
My eclipsed sun
This has broken me down
My twisted knife
My sleepless night
My winless fight
This has frozen my ground
Stood on the cliffside screaming, "Give me a reason"
Your faithless love's the only hoax I believe in
Don't want no other shade of blue but you
No other sadness in the world would do
My best laid plan
Your sleight of hand
My barren land
I am ash from your fire
Stood on the cliffside screaming, "Give me a reason"
Your faithless love's the only hoax I believe in
Don't want no other shade of blue but you
No other sadness in the world would do
You know I left a part of me back in New York
You knew the hero died
so what's the movie for?
You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
You knew the password so I let you in the door
You knew you won
so what's the point of keeping score?
You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
But what you did was just as dark
(Ah, ah, ah)
Darling, this was just as hard
As when they pulled me apart
My only one
My kingdom come undone
My broken drum
You have beaten my heart
Don't want no other shade of blue but you
No other sadness in the world would do |
I was reminiscing just the other day
While having coffee all alone and Lord, it took me away
Back to a first-glance feeling on New York time
Back when you fit in my poems
Like a perfect rhyme
Took off fast through the green light, go
Hey, skip the conversation and you already know
I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made
And that was the first day
And darling, it was good never looking down
And right there where we stood was holy ground
Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress
We had this big wide city all to ourselves
We blocked the noise with the sound of 'I need you'
And for the first time I had something to lose
Well I guess we fell apart in the usual way
And the story's got dust on every page
Sometimes I wonder how you think about it now
And I see your face in every crowd
Cause darling, it was good never looking down
And right there where we stood was holy ground
Tonight I'm gonna dance for all that we've been through
But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you
Tonight I'm gonna dance like you were in the next room
But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you
It was good never looking down
And right there where we stood was holy ground
Tonight I'm gonna dance for all that we've been through
But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you
Tonight I'm gonna dance like you were in the next room
But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you |
I was reminiscing just the other day
While having coffee all alone
And Lord it took me away
Back to a first-glance feeling on New York time
Back when you fit my poems like a perfect rhyme
Took off faster than a green light, go
Yeah you skip the conversation when you already know
I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made
And that was the first day
And darling it was good
Never looking down
And right there where we stood
Was holy ground
Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress
We had this big wide city all to ourselves
We block the noise with the sound of, "I need you"
And for the first time I had something to lose
And I guess we fell apart in the usual way
And the story's got dust on every page
But sometimes I wonder how you think about it now
And I see your face in every crowd
'Cause darling, it was good
Never looking down
And right there where we stood
Was holy ground
Tonight, I'm gonna dance
For all that we've been through
But I don't wanna dance
If I'm not dancing with you
Tonight, I'm gonna dance
Like you were in this room
But I don't wanna dance
If I'm not dancing with you
It was good
Never looking down
And right there where we stood
Was holy ground
Tonight, I'm gonna dance
For all that we've been through
But I don't wanna dance
If I'm not dancing with you
Tonight, I'm gonna dance
Like you were in this room
But I don't wanna dance
If I'm not dancing with you |
I think of you every single evening
As I lay awake at night
I try to think, try to walk away
But you pull me in and I say
Honey baby, don't do nothing crazy
When I say that everything will be fine
Honey baby how can you blame me
When I say I want to make you mine
‘Cause everybody else in the world is driving me crazy
Except you honey baby
Flying high I can see you smiling
As we walk down private drives
Take my hand, take my breath away
‘Cause you make me feel like flying
Honey baby, don't do nothing crazy
When I say that everything will be fine
Honey baby, oh how can you blame me
When I say I want to make you mine
‘Cause everybody else in the world is driving me crazy
Except you honey baby
Oh you are everything I've ever needed
Oh you are everything I want to be
You drive me crazy, help me baby
All I really want to say is
Honey baby, don't do nothing crazy
When I say that everything will be fine
Honey baby how can you blame me
When I say I want to make you mine
‘Cause everybody else in the world is driving me crazy
Except you honey baby |
Guess mine is not
The first heart broken
My eyes are not
The first to cry
I'm not
The first to know
There's just
No gettin' over you
Hello
I'm just a fool
Who's willing
To sit around
And wait for you
But baby can't you see
There's nothin' else
For me to do
I'm hopelessly
Devoted to you
But now
There's nowhere to hide
Since you
Pushed my love aside
I'm not in my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying
"Fool, forget him"
My heart is saying
"Don't let go"
Hold on to the end
That's what
I intend to do
I'm hopelessly
Devoted to you
But now
There's nowhere to hide
Since you
Pushed my love aside
I'm not in my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you |
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah you, PMS
Like a bitch
I would know
And you always think
Always speak
Cryptically
I should know
That you're no good for me
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
We used to be
Just like twins
So in sync
The same energy
Now's a dead battery
Used to laugh bout nothing
Now your plain boring
I should know that
you're not gonna change
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bi-polar
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can't get off this ride
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down |
Stand there like a ghost
Shaking from the rain, rain
She'll open up the door
And say, are you insane?
Say it's been a long six months
And you were too afraid to tell her what you want
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl
And then you say
I want you for worse or for better
I would wait for ever and ever
Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I would wait for ever and ever
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl
Remind her how it used to be, be
With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks
Tell her how you must've lost your mind
When you left her all alone
And never told her why
And that's how it works
That's how you lost the girl
And now you say
I want you for worse or for better
I would wait for ever and ever
Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I would wait for ever and ever
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl
And you know
That I don't want you to go
Remind me how it used to be
Pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks
And say you want me, yeah, yeah
'Cause I want you for worse or for better
I would wait for ever and ever
Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I would wait for ever and ever
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl
And that's how it works
That's how you got the girl |
Out of touch
Out of reach, yeah
You could try to get closer to me
I'm in love
I'm in deep, yeah
Hypnotized
I'm shakin' to my knees
I gotta know tonight
If you're alone tonight
Can't stop this feeling
Can't stop this fire

You could hide

Oh, I believe I'm in you, yeah
Open wide, that's right
Dream me off my feet
Oh, believe in me
I gotta know tonight
If you're alone tonight
Can't stop this feelin'
Can't stop this fire

Whoa, my love |
I bet this time of night you're still up
I bet you're tired from a long, hard week
I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city
And I bet sometimes you wonder about me
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Everytime I don't
I almost do, I almost do
I bet you think I either moved on or hate you
'Cause each time you reach out there's no reply
I bet it never, ever occurred to you
That I can't say hello to you
And risk another goodbye
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Everytime I don't
I almost do, I almost do
We made quite a mess, babe
It's probably better off this way
And I confess, babe
That in my dreams you're touching my face
And asking me if I want to try again with you
And I almost do
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Everytime I don't
I almost do, I almost do
I bet this time of night you're still up
I bet you're tired from a long, hard week
I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city
And I hope sometimes you wonder about me |
I bet this time of night you're still up
I bet you're tired from a long hard week
I bet you're sittin' in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city and I bet
Sometimes you wonder 'bout me
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me
Not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don't
I almost do
I almost do
I bet you think I either moved on or hate you
'Cause each time you reach out, there's no reply

I bet this time of night you're still up
I bet you're tired from a long hard week
I bet you're sittin' in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city and I hope
Sometimes you wonder 'bout me |
3 Am and I'm still awake, I'll bet you're just fine
Fast asleep in your city that's better than mine
And the girl in your bed has a fine pedigree
And I'll bet your friends tell you she's better than me, huh
Well, I tried to fit in with your upper-crust circles
Yeah, they let me sit in back when we were in love
Oh, they sit around talkin' about the meaning of life
And the book that just saved 'em that I hadn't heard of
But now that we're done and it's over
I bet you couldn't believe
When you realized I'm harder to forget
than I was to leave
And I bet you think about me
You grew up in a silver-spoon gated community
Glamorous, shiny, bright Beverly Hills
I was raised on a farm, no, it wasn't a mansion
Just livin' room dancin' and kitchen table bills
But you know what they say, you can't help who you fall for
And you and I fell like an early spring snow
But reality crept in, you said we're too different
You laughed at my dreams, rolled your eyes at my jokes
Mr. Superior Thinking
Do you have all the space that you need?
I don't have to be your shrink
to know that you'll never be happy
And I bet you think about me
I bet you think about me, yes
I bet you think about me
Oh, block it all out
The voices so loud, sayin'
"Why did you let her go? "
Does it make you feel sad
That the love that you're lookin' for
Is the love that you had?
Now you're out in the world, searchin' for your soul
Scared not to be hip, scared to get old
Chasing make-believe status, last time you felt free
Was when none of that shit mattered 'cause you were with me
But now that we're done and it's over
I bet it's hard to believe
That it turned out I'm harder to forget than I was to leave
And, yeah, I bet you think about me
I bet you think about me, yes
I bet you think about me
I bet you think about me when you're out
At your cool indie music concerts every week
I bet you think about me in your house
With your organic shoes and your million-dollar couch
I bet you think about me when you say
"Oh my god, she's insane, she wrote a song about me"
I bet you think about me |
I never trust a narcissist
But they love me
So I play 'em like a violin
And I make it look oh so easy
'Cause for every lie I tell them
They tell me three
This is how the world works
Now all he thinks about is me
I can feel the flames on my skin
Crimson red paint on my lips
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing
I don't regret it one bit
'Cause he had it coming
They say I did something bad, ah
Then why's it feel so good?
They say I did something bad, ah
But why's it feel so good?
Most fun I ever had, ah
And I'd do it over and over
And over again if I could
It just felt so good, good
I never trust a playboy
But they love me
So I fly 'em all around the world
And I let them think they saved me
They never see it comin'
What I do next
This is how the world works
You gotta leave before you get left
I can feel the flames on my skin
He says, "Don't throw away a good thing"
But if he drops my name, then I owe him nothin'
And if he spends my change
Then he had it comin'
They say I did something bad, ah
Then why's it feel so good?
They say I did something bad, ah
But why's it feel so good?
Most fun I ever had, ah
And I'd do it over and over
And over again if I could
It just felt so good, good
It just felt so good
They're burning all the witches
Even if you aren't one
They got their pitchforks and proof
Their receipts and reasons
They're burning all the witches
Even if you aren't one
So light me up (light me up)
Light me up (light me up)
Light me up
Go ahead and light me up (light me up)
Light me up (light me up)
Light me up (light me up)
Light me up (light me up)
Light me up
They say I did something bad, ah (Oh)
Then why's it feel so good? (So good)
They say I did something bad, ah
But why's it feel so good? (Good)
Most fun I ever had (Most fun I ever had)
And I'd do it over and over
And over again if I could
It just felt so good, good
Oh, you say I did something bad
(You say I did something bad)
Then why's it feel so good, good?
So bad, why's it feel so good?
Why's it feel, why's it feel so good? (Bad)
It just felt so good, good |
Been sitting eyes wide open
Behind these four walls
Hoping you'd call
It's just a cruel existence
Like there's no point hoping at all
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
Up all night, all night and every day
Give me something, oh, but you say nothing
What is happening to me?
I don't wanna live forever
'Cause I know I'll be living in vain
And I don't wanna fit wherever
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I'm sitting eyes wide open
And I got one thing stuck in my mind
Wondering if I dodged a bullet
Or just lost the love of my life
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
Up all night, all night and every day
I gave you something, but you gave me nothing
What is happening to me?
I don't wanna live forever
'Cause I know I'll be living in vain
And I don't wanna fit wherever
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I've been looking sad in all the nicest places
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
I see you around in all these empty faces
Up all night, all night and every day
I've been looking sad in all the nicest places
Give me something, oh, but you say nothing
Now I'm in a cab, I tell 'em where your place is
What is happening to me?
I don't wanna live forever
'Cause I know I'll be living in vain
And I don't wanna fit wherever
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
I just wanna keep calling your name
Until you come back home
Until you come back home |
How many days did I spend thinking
'Bout how you did me wrong, wrong, wrong?
Lived in the shade you were throwing
'Til all of my sunshine was gone, gone, gone
And I couldn't get away from ya
In my feelings more than Drake, so yeah
Your name on my lips, tongue-tied
Free rent, living in my mind
But then something happened one magical night
I forgot that you existed
And I thought that it would kill me, but it didn't
And it was so nice
So peaceful and quiet
I forgot that you existed
It isn't love, it isn't hate, it's just indifference
I forgot that you
Got out some popcorn
As soon as my rep started going down, down, down
Laughed on the school yard
As soon as I tripped up and hit the ground, ground, ground
And I would've stuck around for ya
Would've fought the whole town, so yeah
Would've been right there, front row
Even if nobody came to your show
But you showed who you are, then one magical night
I forgot that you existed
And I thought that it would kill me, but it didn't
And it was so nice
So peaceful and quiet
I forgot that you existed
It isn't love, it isn't hate, it's just indifference
I forgot that you
Sent me a clear message
Taught me some hard lessons
I just forget what they were
It's all just a blur
I forgot that you existed
And I thought that it would kill me, but it didn't
And it was so nice
So peaceful and quiet
I forgot that you existed
I did, I did, I did
It isn't hate, it's just indifference
It isn't love, it isn't hate, it's just indifference
So, yeah |
Wish I had concentrated,
They said love was complicated,
But it's something I just fell into,
And it was over-rated
But just look what I've created
I came out alive but I'm black and blue-ue
Before you ask me if I'm alright,
Think about what I,
Had to do-oo, yeah
Wake up and smell the break-up
Fix my heart, put on my make-up
Another mess I didn't plan,
And I'll bet, you thought you'd beat me,
Wish you could only see,
I've 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 and 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'll bet, you thought you'd beat me
I wish you'd could only see
I got an I heart question mark,
Written on the back of my hand
And when you're home alone at night,
You'll still wonder
Why you took everything I had, oh baby
I had a lot 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've 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, yeah
Written on the back of my hand |
Once upon time
A few mistakes ago
I was in your sights
You got me alone
You found me
You found me
You found meeeeee
I guess you didn't care
And I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard
You took a step back
Without me, without me, without meeeee
And he's long gone
When he's next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i'd never been
So you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i'd never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
(Sammy Adams)
Double platinum wherever she go
Shout to French Torino
Met her out Met her out in Vegas
I'm not in no casino
Red lips so hard to miss
What's wrong with being promiscuous
And I can teach you bad bad things
If you into it
Don't need to get intimate
Just yet
Slow down I know that you're thinking you and me
Just met
But girl I got the remedy
Most important the chemistry
Good girl gone bad
Too much for a Kennedy
So, some say some say they sold their souls for a couple hits
I'd rather live the life of gold with the perfect chick
Cause that one moment so breathless and you're hoping
That you'll feel the same way same way
Sparks glowing off that cute face and that sharp smile
Oh man
I haven't crushed this hard in quite awhile
Oh dang
And I could care less that you famous
We gon' make the perfect couple
Cause my first name Big
Last name Trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i'd never been
So you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i'd never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
When your sadest fear comes creeping in
That you never loved me or her or anyone or anything
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i'd never been
So you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i'd never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble! |
Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights, you got me alone
You found me, you found me, you found me
I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard, you took a step back
Without me, without me, without me
And he's long gone when he's next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
No apologies, he'll never see you cry
Pretends he doesn't know that he's the reason why
You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning
And I heard you moved on from whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see
He was long gone when he met me
And I realize the joke is on me, hey
I knew you were trouble when you walked in (Oh)
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been (Yeah)
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh-oh (Yeah)
Trouble, trouble, trouble (Trouble)
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
And the saddest fear
Comes creeping in
That you never loved me
Or her, or anyone, or anything
Yeah
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been (Never been)
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
(Knew it right there)
So shame on me now (Knew it right there)
Flew me to places I'd never been (Ooh)
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble (Oh)
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble (Trouble)
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble |
I, I, I, I, I, I, I
You just stand with your hand
On my waist line
It's a scene and we're out here in plain sight
I can hear them whisper as we pass by
It's a bad sign, bad sign
Something happens when everybody finds out
I see the vultures circling in dark clouds
Love's a fragile little flame that can burn out
It can burn out
'Cause they got the cages
They got the boxes
And guns
They are the hunters, we are the foxes
And we run
Baby, I know places we won't be found in
And they'll be chasing their tails
Trying to track us down
Cause I, I know places we can hide
I know places, I know places
Lights flash, and we'll run for the fences
Let them say what they want, we won't hear it
Loose lips, sink ships all the damn time
Not this time
Just grab my hand and don't ever drop it
My love
They are the hunters, we are the foxes
And we run
Baby, I know places we won't be found in
And they'll be chasing their tails
Trying to track us down
Cause I, I know places we can hide
I know places, I know places
They are the hunters, we are the foxes
And we run
Just grab my hand and don't ever drop it
My love
Baby, I know places we won't be found in
And they'll be chasing their tails
Trying to track us down
Cause I, I know places we can hide
I know places, I know places
They take their shots, we're bulletproof
(I know places)
And you know for me, it's always you
(I know places)
In the dead of night, your eyes so green
(I know places)
And I know for you, it's always me
(I know places)
I, I, I, I, I, I, I |
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 mom 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.
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
And it ain’t you. |
I think he knows
His footprints on the sidewalk
Lead to where I can't stop
Go there every night
I think he knows
His hands around a cold glass
Make me wanna know that
Body like it's mine
He got that boyish look that I like in a man
I am an architect, I'm drawing up the plans
It's like I'm 17, nobody understands
No one understands
He got my heartbeat
Skipping down 16th Avenue
Got that, oh, I mean
Wanna see what's under that attitude like
I want you, bless my soul
And I ain't gotta tell him, I think he knows
I think he knows

When we get all alone
I'll make myself at home
And he'll want me to stay
I think he knows
He better lock it down
Or I won't stick around
'Cause good ones never wait (Ha)
He got that boyish look that I like in a man
I am an architect, I'm drawing up the plans
He's so obsessed with me and, boy, I understand

Lyrical smile, indigo eyes, hand on my thigh
We can follow the sparks, I'll drive
Lyrical smile, indigo eyes, hand on my thigh
We can follow the sparks, I'll drive
"So where we gonna go? "
I whisper in the dark
"Where we gonna go? "
I think he knows
He got my heartbeat (Heartbeat)
Skipping down 16th Avenue (Baby)

I... I used to fly
Didn't matter where I'd been
'Cause I'd seen the sky
I wanna tell you why
But somehow I know I
Would break down and cry
I know you can't see me here
But I am not alone
I'm lying here in invisible arms
And I won't be alone tonight
You... you know I would die
Before I let them see me
See me cry
Please don't leave tonight
Oh let me down slowly
Show me a light
I know you can't see me here
But I am not alone
I'm lying here in invisible arms
And I won't be alone tonight
Oh let me think I'm strong
Please don't bring me down
I need you tonight
I know you can't see me here
But I am not alone
I'm lying here in invisible arms
And I won't be alone tonight
I... I used to fly
Didn't matter where I'd been
'Cause I'd seen the sky |
Oh baby give me one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back to your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
(I want you back)
(I want you back)
(I want you back)
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh baby give me one more chance

Won't you please let me

Ooh ooh baby |
It's two A. M. in your car
Windows down, past my street
The memories start
You say it's in the past
And drive straight ahead
You're thinking that I hate you now
'Cause you still don't know what I never said
I wish you would come back
Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
And I wish you knew that
I will never forget you as long as I live
Wish you were right here, right now
It's all good
I wish you would
It's two A. M. in my room
Headlights pass the window pane
I think of you
We were crooked love
In a straight line down
Makes you wanna run and hide
But it made us wanna turn back around
I wish you would come back
Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
And I wish you knew that
I will never forget you as long as I live
Wish you were right here, right now
It's all good
I wish you would
I wish we could go back
And remember what we were fighting for
Wish you knew that
I miss you too much to be mad anymore
Wish you were right here, right now
It's all good
I wish you would
I wish, I wish, I
I wish, I wish, I
You always knew how to push my buttons
You give me everything and nothing
This mad, mad love makes you come rushing
Stand back wasted
I wish you would
I wish you would, I wish you would
I wish you would, I wish you would
It's two A. M. , here we are
I see your face
Hear my voice in the dark
We were crooked love
In a straight line down
Makes you wanna run and hide
But it made us turn right back around
I wish you would come back
Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
And I wish you knew that
I will never forget you as long as I live
Wish you were right here, right now
It's all good
I wish you would
I wish you would come back
Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
And I wish you knew that
I will never forget you as long as I live
Wish you were right here, right now
It's all good
I wish you would
I wish we could go back
And remember what we were fighting for
Wish you knew that
I miss you too much to be mad anymore
Wish you were right here, right now
It's all good
I wish you would
You always knew how to push my buttons
You give me everything and nothing
This mad, mad love makes you come rushing
Stand back wasted
I wish you would
I wish you would, I wish you would
I wish you would, I wish you would
I wish, I wish, I
I wish, I wish, I wish you would |
Throwing pennies at the fountain
When you're standing on a mountain
It's kinda hard to aim
Like the tree we carved our names in
There must be an explanation
I guess it didn't get enough rain
I need reasons why you're leaving
Well I guess I wished on a plane
I thought was a star
I guess what you wrote on paper
Wasn't written on your heart
Could've sworn you said you loved me
I guess I heard you wrong
And I guess I wished on a plane
I thought was a star
Diving off into the deep end
Always believed you'd be there
When I jumped in
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
I thought was a star
I guess what you wrote on 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
I thought was a star
Tonight was so cloudy
It's not my fault
I just couldn't see...
Well I guess I wished on a plane
I thought was a star
I guess what you wrote on 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
I thought was a star
Throwing pennies at the fountain
When you're standing on a mountain
It's kinda hard to aim |
I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his night
I count the colors in his eyes
He'll never fall in love
He swears, as he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing 'cause I hope he's wrong
And I don't think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke, I fake a smile
But I know all his favorite songs
And I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He loves to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him..
I'd lie
He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on
Doesn't he know that I've had him memorized for so long
He sees everything in black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody see me wishing he was mine
I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He loves to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him..
I'd lie
He stands there, then walks away
My god, if I could only say
I'm holding every breath for you
He'd never tell you, but he can play guitar
I think he can see through everything
But my heart
First thought when I wake up is
My god, he's beautiful
So I put on my make-up and pray for a miracle
Yes I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He loves to argue
Oh, and it kills me
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him..
If you ask me if I love him..
I'd lie |
Friday night beneath the stars
In a field behind your yard
You and I have painted pictures in the sky
But sometimes we don't say a thing
Just listen to the crickest sing
Everything I need is right here by my side
And I know everything about you
I don't want to 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 it drives 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 a crazy world
Trying to figure out what is and isn't true
I'm not on trying to hide my tears
The secret's on my deepest fears
Do it, oh 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 it drives 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
is 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 it drives 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
And I'm only me
Who I wanna be..
Well I'm only me when I'm with you
With You
Ohohoh yeah |
Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you were so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks and I'm trying to get
Back
Before the cool done run out I'll be giving it my
Bestest
Nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it`s again my turn to win some or learn some
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love, love, love
Listen to the music of the moment maybe sing with me
I like peaceful melody
It's your godforsaken right to be loved loved loved
Loved
Loved
So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in
The mirror
And bendin' over backwards just to try to see it
Clearer
My breath fogged up the glass
So I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm sayin is there ain't no better
Reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the
Seasons
It`s what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
It cannot wait, I'm yours
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
It cannot wait, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment come 'n dance with
Me
I love one big family
It's your godforsaken right to be loved loved loved
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment come 'n dance with
Me
I like happy melody
It's our godforsaken right to be loved love loved love |
Last night I heard my own heart beating
Sounded like footsteps on my stairs
Six months gone and I'm still reaching
Even though I know you're not there
I was playing back a thousand memories baby
Thinkin bout everything we've been through
Maybe I've been going back too much lately
When time stood still and I had you
(Chorus)
Come back come back come back to me like
You would you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside til I came out
Come back come back come back to me like
You could you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
I know people change and these things happen
But I remember how it was back then
Locked up in your arms and our friends were laughing
Cause nothing like this ever happened to them
Now I'm pacing down the hall
Chasing down your street
Flashback to the night when you said to me
Nothings gonna change not for me and you
Not before I knew how much I had to lose
(Chorus)
Come back come back come back to me like
You would you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside til I came out
Come back come back come back to me like
You could you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
If you're out there if you're somewhere
If you're moving on
I've being waiting for you ever since you've been gone
I just want it back the way it was before
And I just wanna see you back at my front door
And I'd say
Come back come back come back to me like
You would before you said its not that easy
Before the fight before I locked you out
But I'd take it all back now
(Chorus)
Come back come back come back to me like
You would you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside til I came out
Come back come back come back to me like
You could you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
You'd be here by now
Is that the kind of ending you wanna see now
Baby what about the ending
Oh I thought you'd be here by now oh ohh ohh ohh
That you'd be here by now

Make sure nobody sees you leave
Hood over your head, keep your eyes down
Tell your friends you're out for a run
You'll be flushed when you return
Take the road less traveled by
Tell yourself you can always stop
What started in beautiful rooms
Ends with meetings in parking lots
And that's the thing about illicit affairs
And clandestine meetings and longing stares
It's born from just one single glance
But it dies and it dies and it dies
A million little times
Leave the perfume on the shelf
That you picked out just for him
So you leave no trace behind
Like you don't even exist
Take the words for what they are
A dwindling, mercurial high
A drug that only worked
The first few hundred times
And that's the thing about illicit affairs
And clandestine meetings and stolen stares
They show their truth one single time
But they lie and they lie and they lie
A million little times
And you wanna scream
Don't call me "kid, " don't call me "baby"
Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
You showed me colors you know
I can't see with anyone else
Don't call me "kid", don't call me "baby"
Look at this idiotic fool that you made me
You taught me a secret language
I can't speak with anyone else
And you know damn well
For you, I would ruin myself
A million little times |
I loved you for a little, a little while
I think you know that
It would've worked for a little
Except for that thing you did
It's not like you to be here
When you said you would
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 me to forgive someone 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
But in the pouring rain
You changed everything
You changed the rules
In the middle of the game
You changed everything
You changed the rules
And it's not like me to forgive someone quickly
Except in the pouring rain
Am I winning by losing
Oh I told myself I would be losing
But in the pouring rain
Can you feel my pain
My teardrops falling down from the sky
In the pouring rain
I can feel no shame
By wondering who you love tonight
In the pouring rain
In the pouring rain
Oh, in the pouring rain
In the pouring rain
You changed everything
You changed my mind |
Guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your war path
Lost your balance on a tightrope
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
It's alright just wait and see,
Your string of lights are still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent
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 catching days
When everything out of reach
Someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful running wild till you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you
It's alright just wait and see,
Your string of lights are 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 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
Every one 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 are 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 growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent
You're still an innocent
Lost your balance on the tight rope
It's never too late to get it back |
She can't see the way your eyes,
Will light up when you smile
She'll never notice 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
There is a fire inside of you
That can't help but shine through
She's never going to 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 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
Like shadows in the faded light
Oh, we're invisible
I just wanna open your eyes
and make you realize
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
She can't see the way your eyes
Light up when you smile |
Green was the color of the grass
Where I used to read at Centennial Park
I used to think I would meet somebody there
Teal was the color of your shirt
When you were sixteen at the yogurt shop
You used to work at to make a little money
Time, curious time
Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Ooh-oh-ooh-ooh
Bad was the blood of the song in the cab
On your first trip to LA
You ate at my favorite spot for dinner
Bold was the waitress on our three-year trip
Getting lunch down by the Lakes
She said I looked like an American singer
Time, mystical time
Cutting me open, then healing me fine
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
A string that pulled me
Out of all the wrong arms, right into that dive bar
Something wrapped
all of my past mistakes in barbed wire
Chains around my demons
Wool to brave the seasons
One single thread of gold
Tied me to you
Cold was the steel of my axe to grind
For the boys who broke my heart
Now I send their babies presents
Gold was the color of the leaves
When I showed you around Centennial Park
Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven
Time, wondrous time
Gave me the blues and then purple-pink skies
And it's cool
Baby, with me
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(Ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah) |
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am |
To the left
To the left
Everything you own
In the box to the left
In the closet
Thats my stuff
Yes, if I bought it
Please don't touch
Keep talking
And yes that's fine
Could you walk and talk
At the same time and
It's my name
That's on the tag
Come in with your bags
Let me call you a cab
Standin'
In the front yard
Tellin' me how

Call up that chick
And see if she's home
Oops I bet you thought
That I didn't know
What'd ya think
I was putting you out for
Cuz you were untrue
Haulin' her around
In the truck
That I bought you
Baby drop them keys
Hurry up
Before your taxi leaves
Standin'
In the front yard

So don't you ever
For a second
Get to thinking
You're irreplacable
Yeah |
Ooh
Ooh
School bell rings, walk me home
Sidewalk chalk covered in snow
Lost my gloves, you give me one
"Wanna hang out? " Yeah, sounds like fun
Video games, you pass me a note
Sleeping in tents
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
Light pink sky, up on the roof
Sun sinks down, no curfew
20 questions, we tell the truth
You've been stressed out lately, yeah, me too
Something gave you the nerve
To touch my hand
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
Church bells ring, carry me home
Rice on the ground looks like snow
Call my bluff, call you "Babe"
Have my back, yeah, every day
Feels like home, stay in bed
The whole weekend
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
It's nice to have a friend (Ooh)
(Ooh) |
When your dinner is cold and the chatter gets old
You ask for the tab
Or that moment again, he's insisting that friends
Look at each other like that
When the words of a sister come back in whispers
That prove she was not
In fact what she seemed
Not a twin from your dreams
She's a crook who was caught
That old familiar body ache
The snaps from the same little breaks
In your soul
You know when it's time to go
Twenty years at your job
Then the son of the boss gets the spot that was yours
Or trying to stay for the kids
When keeping it how it is will only break their hearts worse
That old familiar body ache
The snaps from the same little breaks
In your soul
You know when it's time to go
Sometimes giving up is the strong thing
Sometimes to run is the brave thing
Sometimes walking out is the one thing
That will find you the right thing
Sometimes giving up is the strong thing
Sometimes to run is the brave thing
Sometimes walking out is the one thing
That will find you the right thing
Fifteen years, fifteen million tears
Begging 'til my knees bled
I gave it my all, he gave me nothing at all
Then wondered why I left
Now he sits on his throne in his palace of bones
Praying to his greed
He's got my past frozen behind glass
But I've got me
That old familiar body ache
The snaps from the same little breaks
In my soul
I know when it's time to go
Sometimes giving up is the strong thing
Sometimes to run is the brave thing
Sometimes walking out is the one thing
That will find you the right thing
Sometimes giving up is the strong thing
Sometimes to run is the brave thing
Sometimes walking out is the one thing
That will find you the right thing
That will find you the right thing
And you know in your soul
And you know in your soul
When it's time to go
You know, you know, you know, you know
When it's time to go
So then you go
Then you go
You just go |
How's one to know?
I'd meet you where the spirit meets the bones
In a faith forgotten land
In from the snow
Your touch brought forth an incandescent glow
Tarnished but so grand
And the old widow goes to the stone every day
But I don't, I just sit here and wait
Grieving for the living
Oh, goddamn
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
Oh, I can't
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
My house of stone, your ivy grows
And now I'm covered in you
I wish to know
The fatal flaw that makes you long to be
Magnificently cursed
He's in the room
Your opal eyes are all I wish to see
He wants what's only yours
Oh, goddamn
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
Oh, I can't
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
My house of stone, your ivy grows
And now I'm covered
Clover blooms in the fields
Spring breaks loose, the time is near
What would he do if he found us out?
Crescent moon, coast is clear
Spring breaks loose, but so does fear
He's gonna burn this house to the ground
How's one to know?
I'd live and die for moments that we stole
On begged and borrowed time
So tell me to run
Or dare to sit and watch what we'll become
And drink my husband's wine
Oh, goddamn
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
Oh, I can't
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
My house of stone, your ivy grows
And now I'm covered in you
And I'm covered in you
So yeah, it's a fire
It's a goddamn blaze in the dark
And you started it
You started it
So yeah, it's a war
It's the goddamn fight of my life
And you started it
You started it
Oh, I can't
Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
My house of stone, your ivy grows
And now I'm covered
In you, in you
Now I'm covered in you
In you |
Let's go

I like the way you sound in the morning
We're on the phone and without a warning
I realize your laugh is the best sound
I have ever heard
I like the way I can't keep my focus
I watch you talk, you didn't notice
I hear the words, but all I can think is
We should be together
Every time you smile, I smile
And every time you shine, I'll shine for you
Whoa, I'm feeling you baby
Don't be afraid to
Jump then fall
Jump then fall into me
Baby, I'm never gonna leave you
Say that you wanna be with me too
'cause I'm gonna stay through it all
So jump then fall
Well, I like the way your hair falls in your face
You got the keys to me, I love each freckle on your face
Oh, I've never been so wrapped up, honey
I like the way you're everything I ever wanted
I had time to think it over
And all I can say is come closer
Take a deep breath and jump

When people say things that bring you to your knees
I'll catch you
The time is gonna come when you're so mad
You could cry
But I'll hold you though the night until you smile

I'm perfectly fine
I live on my own
I made up my mind, I'm better off bein' alone
We met a few weeks ago
Now you try on callin' me baby
Like tryin' on clothes
Salute to me I'm your american queen
And you move to me
Like I'm a motown beat
And we rule the kingdom inside my room
'cause all the boys and their expensive cars
With their range rovers and their jaguars
Never took me quite where you do
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once
You're all I want
I'll never let you go
King of my heart, body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once, I've been waiting, waiting
Ooh whoa, ooh whoa
And all at once, you are the one
I have been waiting, waiting
Body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once
Late in the night, the city's asleep
Your love is a secret I'm hoping
Dreaming, dying to keep
Change my priorities
The taste of your lips is my idea of luxury
Salute to me I'm your american queen
And you move to me
Like I'm a motown beat
And we rule the kingdom inside my room
(inside my room, oh)
'cause all the boys and their expensive cars
With their range rovers and their jaguars
Never took me quite where you do
(where you do)
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once
You're all I want
I'll never let you go
King of my heart, body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once, I've been waiting, waiting
Ooh whoa, ooh whoa
And all at once, you are the one
I have been waiting, waiting
Body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once
Is the end of all the endings?
My broken bones are mending
With all these nights we're spending
Up on the roof with a school girl crush
Drinking beer out of plastic cups
Say you fancy me
Not fancy stuff
Baby, all at once, this is enough
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart
Body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once
You're all I want
I'll never let you go
King of my heart, body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once, I've been
waiting, waiting
Ooh whoa, ooh whoa
And all at once
'cause you're the one I have been waiting
Waiting
Body and soul, ooh whoa
And all at once |
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
Special
Yea yea
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you, and your soul of ice
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 under cover but you tore me apart
Maybe this year, maybe this year
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
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
I'll give it to someone special |
I still remember the look on your face
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
The words that you whispered
For just us to know
You told me you loved me
So why did you go
Away
Away?
I do recall now
The smell of the rain
Fresh on the pavement
I ran off the plane
That July 9th
The beat of your heart
It jumps through your shirt
I can still feel your arms
But now I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
I do remember
The swing in your step
The life of the party, you're showing off again
And I roll my eyes and then
You pull me in
I'm not much for dancing
But for you I did
Because I love your handshake
Meeting my father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something
There's not a day
When I don't miss those rude interruptions
But now I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
So I'll watch you live in pictures
Like I used to watch you sleep
And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
And I keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are
Hope it's nice where you are
And I hope the sun shines
And it's a beautiful day
And something reminds you
You wish you had stayed
You can plan for a change in weather and town
But I never planned on you changing your mind
So I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
Just like our last kiss
Forever the name on my lips
Forever the name on my lips
Just like our last |

The first shots fired, everybody's gathered around
You're looking at me like I tried to take you down
No, no, it's not what happened at all
There's no sound, I'm waiting on your next move
A showdown and I know where to hit you
But no, no, it's not how I wanted this to go down
Now we're standing in the ring
And you made your first swing
And now we're fighting dirty
Won't somebody come see break it up
And I used to be on your side
Now it's looking like we're going to battle
And why you're taking shots at me like
Somebody's gonna give you a medal?
And I never wanna hurt you
But I'm tired of taking all these blows
And so I'd rather be on your side
But if you wanna fight
Baby let's go, oh, oh
Let's go, oh, oh
So gloves off, if this is how you want it
We had it all, but you couldn't keep a promise
No, no, I'm not the one who tore us apart
Let me remind you for a minute why we're not fine
Is she here? Is she's standing on the sidelines?
Oh, oh, can't you tell this is breaking my heart?
[Pre-Chorus]
Now we're standing in the ring
And you made your first swing
And now I'm fighting dirty
But I ain't going down till they break it up
And I used to be on your side
Now it's looking like we're going to battle
And why you're taking shots at me like
Somebody's gonna give you a medal?
And I never wanna hurt you
But I'm tired of taking all these blows
And so I'd rather be on your side
But if you wanna fight
Baby let's go, oh, oh
Let's go, oh, oh
Now we're standing in the ring
Breaking everything that we've been building up so long
And I don't wanna do this break it up
But you're not who I thought you were
And this is looking more like a war
Looks like we're going to war
And I used to be on your side
Now it's looking like we're going to battle
And why you're taking shots at me like
Somebody's gonna give you a medal?
And I never wanna hurt you
But I'm tired of taking all these blows
And so I'd rather be on your side
But if you wanna fight
Baby let's go, oh, oh
Looks like we're going to war
Oh, oh
The first shots fired
Everybody's gathered around
You're looking at me like I try to take you down
No, no, but if you wanna fight, baby, let's go |
One daybreak, one heartache
Every once upon a time
That black dress, happiness
Bubble baths and borderlines
They mean so much to everyone
But you count them up one by one
Clear midnights and clear spotlights
Once thinking that your dad was ten feet tall
A bluebonnet with rain on it
White winters and leaves that always fall
Your black boots
My red flower ring
Live for the little things
Oil paintings and making every detail turn out right
One last dance, new romance
Living for that love at first sight
It means so much to everyone
But you count it up one by one
Clear midnights and clear spotlights
Once thinking that your dad was ten feet tall
A bluebonnet with rain on it
White winters and leaves that always fall
Your black boots
My red flower ring
Live for the little things
No fighting, black writing
Wish upon a star
And give the moon a smile
Pretending, defending
Take a risk and go along for the ride
Strawberries and fairies with wings
Live for the little things |
We can go driving in, on my scooter
Uh, you know, just riding in London
Alright, yeah
I love my hometown as much as Motown
I love Socal
And you know I love Springsteen
Faded blue jeans, Tennessee whiskey
But something happened
I heard him laughing
I saw the dimples first and then
I heard the accent
They say home is where the heart is
But that's not where mine lives
You know I love a London boy
I enjoy walking Camden Market in the afternoon
He likes my American smile
Like a child when our eyes meet
Darling, I fancy you
Took me back to Highgate
Met all of his best mates
So I guess all the rumors are true
You know I love a London boy
Boy, I fancy you (Ooh)
And now I love high tea
Stories from Uni, and the West End
You can find me in the pub
We are watching rugby with his school friends
Show me a gray sky, a rainy cab ride
Babe, don't threaten me with a good time
They say home is where the heart is
But God, I love the English
You know I love a London boy
I enjoy nights in Brixton
Shoreditch in the afternoon
He likes my American smile
Like a child when our eyes meet
Darling, I fancy you
Took me back to Highgate
Met all of his best mates
So I guess all the rumors are true
You know I love a London boy
Boy, I fancy you
So please show me Hackney
Doesn't have to be Louis V up on Bond Street
Just wanna be with you
Wanna be with you
Stick with me, I'm your queen
Like a Tennessee Stella Mccartney, I'm the heat
Just wanna be with you (Wanna be with you)
Wanna be with you (Oh)
You know I love a London boy
I enjoy walking Soho
Drinking in the afternoon (Yeah)
He likes my American smile
Like a child when our eyes meet
Darling, I fancy you (You)
Took me back to Highgate
Met all of his best mates
So I guess all the rumors are true (Yeah)
You know I love a London boy (Oh)
Boy (Oh) , I fancy you (I fancy you, ooh)
So please show me Hackney
Doesn't have to be, but we be up on Palm Street
Just wanna be with you
I, I, I fancy you
Oh whoa, oh, I
Stick with me, I'm your queen
Like a Tennessee Stella Mccartney, I'm the heat
Just wanna be with you (Ooh)
Wanna be with you
I fancy you (Yeah) , I fancy you
Oh whoa, ah |
I said remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds and 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
How 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
How 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
Can 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
How the candlelight 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
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered |
Lembrei desse sentimento
Gritando dentro de nós
Éramos todos meninos
E em cada um vivia uma paixão
Como na cena de um filme
Vencemos pesadelos
Enfrentando os dragões
Criados por nossos medos
Fruto da imaginação
De frente a uma nova era
Na onda de uma canção
Nós construímos história
Mente, alma e coração
Long live the walls
We crashed through
How 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 side-lines 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
De frente a uma nova era
Na onda de uma canção
Nós construímos história
Mente, alma e coração
Long live the walls
We crashed through
How 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
Just spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall
Lembrei do momento
Que fiz promessa pra nós dois
Pintando o nosso destino
Puro e simples, pleno
E sem fim
Que fosse assim
Sem um "goodbye"
Fosse pra sempre um "cheguei"
O sonho que construímos
Me vi feliz, eu te achei
Será muito mais
Que achar
Será muito além
Que pensar
Long live the walls
We crashed through
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls
We crashed through
How 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
Singing
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life
Fighting dragons with you
Long, long live
The look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered |
Fatefully
I tried to pick my battles 'til the battle picked me
Misery
Like the war of words I shouted in my sleep
And you passed right by
I was in the alley, surrounded on all sides
The knife cuts both ways
If the shoe fits, walk in it 'til your high heels break
And I fell from the pedestal
Right down the rabbit hole
Long story short, it was a bad time
Pushed from the precipice
Clung to the nearest lips
Long story short, it was the wrong guy
Now I'm all about you
I'm all about you, ah
Yeah, yeah
I'm all about you, ah
Yeah, yeah
Actually
I always felt I must look better in the rear view
Missing me
At the golden gates they once held the keys to
When I dropped my sword
I threw it in the bushes and knocked on your door
And we live in peace
But if someone comes at us, this time, I'm ready
'Cause I fell from the pedestal
Right down the rabbit hole
Long story short, it was a bad time
Pushed from the precipice
Clung to the nearest lips
Long story short, it was the wrong guy
Now I'm all about you
I'm all about you, ah
Yeah, yeah
I'm all about you
No more keepin' score
Now I just keep you warm (Keep you warm)
No more tug of war
Now I just know there's more (Know there's more)
No more keepin' score
Now I just keep you warm (Keep you warm)
And my waves meet your shore
Ever and evermore
Past me
I wanna tell you not to get lost in these petty things
Your nemeses
Will defeat themselves before you get the chance to swing
And he's passing by
Rare as the glimmer of a comet in the sky
And he feels like home
If the shoe fits, walk in it everywhere you go
And I fell from the pedestal
Right down the rabbit hole
Long story short, it was a bad time
Pushed from the precipice
Climbed right back up the cliff
Long story short, I survived
Now I'm all about you
(And now) I'm all about you, ah
(And now) I'm all about you, ah
Yeah, yeah
I'm all about you
(And now) Yeah, yeah
I'm all about you
Long story short, it was a bad time
Long story short, I survived |
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
It would be a long time, long time going

There you are
Standing there lookin like you don't know what to say
But I know that face
And here I am
Bracing myself for what I know is coming my way
What a waste
All of that time
I thought you were mine
Was I just kidding myself?
Letting it go
And loving you so
Don't you dare tell me not to look at you like that
I'm gonna look at you like that
I'm gonna hang my head and turn my back
To your sneak attack
If it's the last thing that I do
I'm gonna make this hard on you while I
Look at you like that
Don't you say
That we can still be friends
It doesn't work that way
The end is the end
And don't you dare think
That I'll pack up all my tears and take them home
And cry them out when I'm alone
I'll do it right here
I'm crying right now
Baby you can watch me crumble down
That's for breaking my heart
So baby don't start
Thinking you can ask me not to look at you like that
I'm gonna look at you like that
I'm gonna hang my head and turn my back
To your sneak attack
If it's the last thing that I do
I'm gonna make this hard on you while I
Look at you like that
Don't you tell me to be strong
Or make it harder than it has to be
After you are gone
You'll remember what you've done to me
Cause I'm gonna look at you like that
I'm gonna hang my head and turn my back
To your sneak attack
If it's the last thing that I do
After what you put me through
I'm gonna have to let you know
How much it hurts to let you go
Oh yeah
Gonna look at you like that
Look at you
Look at you
Look at you
Like that |
Look, if you had, one shot, or one opportunity
to seize everything you ever wanted... one moment
Would you capture it, or just let it slip? Yo
His palms are sweaty,
Knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already
Mom's spaghetti, he's nervous
But on the surface he looks calm
And ready to drop bombs
but he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down
The whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth but the words won't come out
He's choking, how?
Everybody's jokin' now
The clock's run out, time's up, over BLOW!
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment you own it, you better never let it go, oh
You only get one shot,
Do not miss your chance to blow
'cause opportunity comes once in a lifetime go
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment you own it, you better never let it go, oh
You only get one shot,
Do not miss your chance to blow
'cause opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better |
Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted? one moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin, how everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that
Is he? No
He won't have it , he knows his whole back city's ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rap shit
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
(Chorus)
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile
Can't you see
That I'm the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So why can't you see?
You belong with me |
We were both young
When I first saw you
I closed my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
I see the lights
See the party the ball gowns
I see you make your way
Through the crowd
And say hello
Little did I know
That you were Romeo
You were throwing pebbles
'till my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Beggin' you please don't go
And I said
Romeo take me
Somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting
All that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince
And I'll be the princess
It's a love story
Baby just say yes
So I sneak out
To the garden to see you
We keep quiet
Cause were dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Just keep this down for a little while
Cause you were Romeo
I was a scarlett letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
And I was beggin' you please don't go
And I said
Romeo take me
Somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting
All that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince
And I'll be the princess
It's a love story
Baby just say yes
Romeo save me
They're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult
But it's real
Don't be afraid
We'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story
Baby just say yes
I got tired of waiting
Wonderin' if you were ever comin' around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me
I've been feelin' so alone
I keep waiting for you
But you never come
Is this in my head?
I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground
And pulled out a ring
And says
Marry me Juliet
You never have to be alone
I love you
And that's all I really know
I talked to your dad
Go pick out a white dress
It's a love story
Baby just say yes
Oh oh
Oh oh oh
Cause we were both young
When I first saw you |
