9. AS FOR ONE DAY

This Machine

(verse 1)

the shadow asked himself "just who am I?"

scanned horizons

a tragic mystery

you could have left me here

and stayed on the run

no one will ever know

chaos can't control

my true identity

the power that is me

(chorus)

we all danced in fire

trapped in this machine

don't know how long we've waited

as the shadow's watching

we all danced in fire

looking through the screen

don't know how long we've waited

as the shadow watches

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

with you in the fight

electric lives

change surroundings

a jewel in history

a treasure disappears

as we go

miss us as you look away

and no one knows

this power is a key

this power changes me

(chorus)

we all danced in fire

trapped in this machine

don't know how long we've waited

as the shadow's watching

we all danced in fire

looking through the screen

don't know how long we've waited

as the shadow watches

(end chorus)

(bridge)

easy as 1, 2, 3

you didn't know now I'm gonna show you

the power that is me

you try to take me down

stop the show

seems you've never tasted fear

or loss of control

the power lives in me

the power that is me

(chorus)

we all danced in fire

trapped in this machine

don't know how long we've waited

as the shadow's watching

we all danced in fire

looking through the screen

don't know how long we've waited

as the shadow watches

(end chorus)

We Cool

(verse 1)

(just do it for the boys in the Cadillac

just do it for the boys in the Cadillac)

cruising down the street

the sunset is sweet

even though we go slow

we always make it on time

paradise is in our grasp

passion is in my eyes

people stare at us cuz we so cool

everything is green

the breeze makes it serene

more of these times please, baby

at our favorite spot

we turn the radio up

and drink even though it's noon

even though it's noon

even though it's noon, ah

(chorus)

I'm so cool, he's so cool

she's so cool, we cool, and you?

I'm so cool, he's so cool

she's so cool, we cool, and you?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

(just do it for the boys in the Cadillac)

the bright lights of neon

the night is heavy

happy when we get together with some babes

glide into the drive-in

then we get out

please, let me stand next to you while you check me

causing a ruckus

and some chaos too

go ahead smile, ah ah ah ah

the cops get called

we peel out in smoke

let me go, great, this kingdom's throne

this kingdom's throne, this kingdom's throne

is mine

(chorus)

I'm so cool, he's so cool

she's so cool, we cool, and you?

I'm so cool, he's so cool

she's so cool, we cool, and you?

(end chorus)

(bridge)

oh oh oh oh

oh oh oh oh

and it's so cool

oh oh oh oh

I'm just so cool

I'm just so cool, yeah

and you're so cool

and you're so cool

(chorus)

I'm so cool, he's so cool

she's so cool, we cool, and you? (you're just so cool)

I'm so cool, he's so cool (yeah, yeah, yeah)

she's so cool, we cool, and you? (I'm just so cool)

I'm so cool, he's so cool (I'm just so cool)

she's so cool, we cool, and you?

(end chorus)

Sunset Bay

(verse 1)

surround yourself with good people

and it'll happen

good times are just hanging in the flat distance far away

no more feeling down or crying tears

about something

you cannot control at all

(chorus)

I know, you know

that this roller coaster called life needs

a poker face to make it through the mundane, damnedest day

show me that you can smile while we are jamming on the way

S.O.S we're going down quickly by the sunset bay

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

chewing some gum

acting like a bum

this summer surely will blend in with the others

like I predicted

nothing but a soul is keeping me going

and so I, sink into the tide

(chorus)

I know, you know

that this roller coaster called life needs

a poker face to make it through the mundane, damnedest day

show me that you can smile while we are jamming on the way

S.O.S we're going down quickly by the sunset bay

(end chorus)

(bridge)

ahh, ahh

(chorus)

I know, you know

that this roller coaster called life needs

a poker face to make it through the mundane, damnedest day

show me that you can smile while we are jamming on the way

S.O.S we're going down quickly by the sunset bay

(end chorus)

Good Vibes

(verse 1)

yeah, I stuck the dismount

well, are you happy, my juicy baby?

lemonade from right down the street

quench it, you're thirsty

I know cuz I was looking

you got me on a high

you can tell because I hiccup

for it, I'd go the distance

just a little bit fast

my choice, like a last dance

(chorus)

why can't I catch it?

why can't I like it?

we ride or die, homie

why can't I tell it?

why can't I help it?

look out for me, homie

I feel so good

good vibes I feel like be there

feel like be there

good vibes I feel like be there

feel like be there

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

it's just what I surmised

you give me a kiss, hey

when you're not looking

I wonder if you gotta, gotta, gotta fake it

(chorus)

why can't I catch it?

why can't I like it?

we ride or die, homie

why can't I tell it?

why can't I help it?

look out for me, homie

I feel so good

good vibes I feel like be there

feel like be there

good vibes I feel like be there

feel like be there

(end chorus)

(bridge)

this is our grand collaboration

good vibrations makes me happy

makes me happy

good vibes I feel like be there

good vibes I feel like be there

good vibes I feel like be there

good vibes I feel like be there

(chorus)

why can't I catch it?

why can't I like it?

we ride or die, homie

why can't I tell it?

why can't I help it?

look out for me, homie

I feel so good

good vibes I feel like be there

feel like be there

good vibes I feel like be there

feel like be there

(end chorus)

MINT

(verse 1)

on high ground, I stay on guard

gazing out on all of my problems

she can't understand and she won't stop

trying to get into my mind

it isn't that I can't love

it's just that I burned out on romance

but the people around me

are well fed and taken care of like they're family

(chorus)

sure, huh, can you say it again?

I must have gotten lost in translation

good luck, what the hell is that?

I'm outta here before my fears transition

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

quitting is so easy

that's why it's right for me

I'll approach it again, eventually

I just got nervous and a little twisted

I'm so jealous, you solved my issue before me

(chorus)

sure, huh, can you say it again?

I must have gotten lost in translation

good luck, what the hell is that?

I'm outta here before my fears transition

sure, huh, can you say it again?

I must have gotten lost in translation

good luck, what the hell is that?

I'm outta here before my fears transition

(end chorus)

Kick the Rock!

(chorus)

heck, I don't know

that's what I'm representing

never seen a mic-hog spit like a menace

having a lot of fun

I gotta chase my gun, huh?

oh me? I'm sexy and smooth

double cross like a spy thief that's out for your jewels, huh

he's feeling me in mysterious ways

that's why I stay on point

like every single day

I gotta protect this place

I do it to save face, uh huh

yeah, you know how it is

yo, yo uh uh

throw your hands up

come on, come on

(end chorus)

(verses 1)

ain't nobody gonna come here

and eat my plate, no

my treasure is gone

somebody's gonna get theirs quick

my word is bond

it's that bitch, I muse

all these fools keep acting like tools

yeah, you know how it is

yo, yo uh uh

(chorus)

heck, I don't know

that's what I'm representing

never seen a mic-hog spit like a menace

having a lot of fun

I gotta chase my gun, huh?

oh me? I'm sexy and smooth

double cross like a spy thief that's out for your jewels, huh

he's feeling me in mysterious ways

that's why I stay on point

like every single day

I gotta protect this place

I do it to save face, uh huh

yeah, you know how it is

(end chorus)

My Planet

(verse 1)

okay

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

d-e-p-r-e-s-s-i-o-n

I keep on depressin'

and it's causes me to be stressin'

were we born only to die?

but we stay shinin'

like we are a diamond

then why do we live with our hearts so cold?

is it to make things easier when we are old?

it's like living in a storm of stones

(how about I set of on an adventure

looking for treasure

it's gets better

doing whatever I want

whenever I want

not worrying about money

not working up a sweat

just living it up

with the time of my life

until I feel much better

though I can't outrun my fate

even with all the passion)

(chorus)

born on an island

in the heavens

the blood of my ancestors flows inside me

my duty is to save the flower

from evil deterioration

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

looking for the pieces of the puzzle

not finding a damn thing funny

even when my vision gets blurry

nothing can stop these knuckles and feet

streaking lights, loud sounds, and instinct

are the elements that keep me going

I can fight my own mission

nothing's going to stand in my way

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

(chorus)

won't be frightened

I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil

just believe in myself, won't rely on others

I get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy

this is my planet gonna fight for my destiny

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

I have no such things as weak spots

don't approve of them, but I gotta trust them

searching over mountains for my purpose

because this life is only temporary

(chorus)

won't be frightened

I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil

just believe in myself, won't rely on others

I get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy

this is my planet gonna fight for my destiny

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I was born like this

to fear no one

taking care of business myself

so keep to yourself

if a fight is started

I battle till the end

everybody is aware of the knuckles that I send

with one look, an enemy is sentenced to death

my fists are like iron and my feet are on fire

I stick to my guns and I won't surrender

I keep fighting until I'm the only contendere

(chorus)

won't be frightened

I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil

just believe in myself, won't rely on others

I get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy

this is my planet 

won't be frightened

I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil

just believe in myself, won't rely on others

I get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy

this is my planet I shall not surrender

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

something's calling me, I don't know what

someone's yelling, but I don't know who

something's calling me, more and more

no one stops these knuckles and feet

(end chorus)

Subject A

(verse 1)

ever since I was just seventeen years old

big-eyed and pretty just starting out in the world

everybody looks at me like oh how pretty and innocent

I want a bad streak but I can't cuz of imprisonment

wearing black and not picking up slack

but then being told to change

what's wrong with being a little bad?

if I continue on like this I'll go mad

(chorus)

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I'm pretty mature and I am in control

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I know I am, I know I am, but I can handle it

I want to be sexy, I want to be perplexing

just call me subject A

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

who cares if I can't get married

I want a romance that is so frenzied

who wants to settle down being this young and restless

just let this girl be crazy and reckless

deep in that burning heart

nothing can tear her apart from trickery

her parents are worried

but there's no reason to be sullied

she just wants to be free like that guy

(chorus)

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

who cares if I'm at that age

don't wanna be in cage

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I know and you know but it can't be helped

I want to just be me, I want to be inspiring

just call me subject A

(end chorus)

(chorus)

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I'm pretty mature and I am in control

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I know I am, I know I am, but I can handle it

I want to be sexy, I want to be perplexing

just call me subject A

(end chorus)

Meu Amor é...

(verse 1)

in the shadow, I take your hand

but it bleeds, when you pull away

nobody knows

the day will never come

when you'll forget that Latin dancer

when night befalls the quiet city

the kids come out to play

black eyes that surprisingly shine

make me wish our dull lives would rise and intertwine

it's magic, latatata

those songs in which you sang to me

with every strum of your guitar I fell in love

plotting my chance to make you adore

(chorus)

to love or to be loved

here at the carnival of dreams and wonders

it's splendid, on this night

say to me, or let it be said

if romance and passion will work at all

is it futile or brutal?

to dance or to be danced

do you want to tango

or kiss and let it go, amore?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the parade of the lonely

marches towards a grand game

a dream was smashed

just like a wine glass

that you threw like a magic shadow

the sky is filled with fireworks slightly

we samba so far away

but before I am forced to let you go

you show me tenderness and I feel low

(chorus)

orderly or to be ordered

you take control of my body

at the carnival all night long

it matters or it doesn't matter

here at the carnival

don't leave me standing here alone, amore

(end chorus)

(chorus)

to love or to be loved

here at the carnival of dreams and wonders

it's splendid, on this night

say to me, or let it be said

if romance and passion will work at all

is it futile or brutal?

to dance or to be danced

do you want to tango

or kiss and let it go, amore, amore, amore, amore?

(end chorus)

DESIRE -Passion-

(verse 1)

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning love

with that bad boy by my side

I'm getting ready to take a wild ride

into the unknown neon

a good girl should always know

not to flirt with temptation

but what's wrong with just one discotheque?

everybody wants me to be their angel

but when he presents himself as a cute devil

I give in

his past may be hazy

but as long as he's with me

surely, we can be simple lovers

(chorus)

impossible, baby

it's my desire

just tonight only

rev up my fire

baby, we can dance, dance, dance, dance

hold on tight for a hell of a night

and then, so beautifully

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning heart

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

in my pure kimono

 I entertain a sexy daimyo

I'm sorry, I can only say no

this careful, cautious girl

wants to break out of her shell

so she says what the hell

just this once, I'll follow him

the warnings are red and yellow

but she don't care

taking her by the hand

he causes a scandal scene

and she feels ecstasy

(chorus)

it's burning

passion flares

it's desire

losing herself

consumed in fire

for the first time in her life

she dances on the edge of a knife

intoxicated by his ability

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning love

(end chorus)

(chorus)

impossible, baby

it's my desire

just tonight only

rev up my fire

baby, we can dance, dance, dance, dance

hold on tight for a hell of a night

and then, so beautifully

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning heart

get up! get up! get up! get up!

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning love

(end chorus)

TANGO NOIR

(verse 1)

in my diary a full page a day

I dedicate to my lovely

an obsession known to the bed where I lay

a hideaway

you do not even know

I look at the sky thinking of you

the one bet holding me back

is I know what I lack

the determination

to make a confession

if there's such a thing as destiny

why should I make an admission?

suitors come in suits and bring gifts

I turn them away bravely

with your obvious lonesome self

ahh, stay lonely

(chorus)

maybe I will drink of that sweet poison

but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips

and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?

do you know, what I could consume you in?

a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly

and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

just a dreaming woman

that wants romance at night

billowing white curtains and a silhouette

of the man she loves

if anyone can hear this prayer from me

I want time to stop

that moment when he touched my hair tenderly

ahh, mystery

(chorus)

maybe you will, be the one to marry first

leaving me, behind in the dust

rose-colored, glasses on my face, I give you space

a parody, of the card game where we gambled

and placed bets on who would confess

it took you, walking away from my body, to end me

(end chorus)

(chorus)

maybe I will drink of that sweet poison

but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips

and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?

do you know, what I could consume you in?

a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly

and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully

(end chorus)

Don't Give Up

(verse 1)

soon before long, my baby

life's going to get harder

happiness and time are ever fleeting

so you got to grab on

but as long as you

know a miracle can occur

when you smile and lean on me

it will be easier

to hold on for the ride

(chorus)

don't ever give up

don't ever stand idly by while injustice occurs in the world daily

you can make a change, you can make a difference

as long as your heart is in the right place

go at your own pace, righteously 

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

stay close to your heroes

while you grow even stronger

after forgetting your own sorrows

we all watched while you rose

love and passion are two essentials

to overcoming sadness and grief

and now after the obstacles

there's nothing in your path

(chorus)

don't ever give up

don't ever stand idly by while defeat zaps your energy

you can make a change, you can make a difference

as long as your heart is in the right place

go at your own pace, bravely

(end chorus)

(bridge)

don't ever give up

don't ever stand idly by while injustice occurs in the world daily

you can make a change, you can make a difference

as long as your heart is in the right place

go at your own pace, righteously 

(chorus)

don't ever give up

don't ever stand idly by while defeat zaps your energy

you can make a change, you can make a difference

as long as your heart is in the right place

go at your own pace, bravely

(end chorus)

My Friend

(verse 1)

you do not need to worry about a thing

your heart is soaring on clouds

always drifting on beautiful blue seas

please hurry to my side

history has had it that we

have a lot of fun

when it's you and me

it's a mystery

perhaps it was uncanny

or maybe it was just meant to be

two people from two different background

became so friendly

and lift each other up on highs

but in the lows, we will part the seas to be happy

(chorus)

and always keep on smiling no matter what

you don't have to worry about that

because you're my friend

and any trouble that comes your way

by your side I will stay

so you won't fight alone anymore

that's what friends are for

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

really imagine a land

where loneliness is no more and

wherever you go, I go too

wishes are for believing

and you can believe in me

no more frowns, there's no time for that

even if in a daydream

you feel like you might cry

all you have to do is call and I will try

(chorus)

and always keep smiling and think happy thoughts

and even through all of the droughts

you'll persevere, my friend

be weak until you can grow stronger

and happiness will last longer

run towards it today

(end chorus)

(chorus)

you do not need to worry about a thing

your heart is soaring on clouds

always drifting on beautiful blue seas

please hurry to my side

please hurry to my side

(end chorus)

Long Live

(verse 1)

may His will never die

may all the children know

His splendor and light

the kingdom of heaven

that awaits us all

never lose sight

He keeps you strong and tall

(chorus)

long live our Heavenly King

long live our Father

who loves and protects us

we are the sheep and He is the Shepard

He who sent us Jesus

let us be forever paired

our hands held with the King

long live our God

long live our Savior

long live our dearest Father

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

it's because we have faith

in our all-knowing creator

we don't want to face evil wraith

so we follow our loving Savior

he promised us never-ending joy

it awaits us all

with the faith we employ

we stay strong and stay tall

(chorus)

long live our Heavenly King

long live our Father

who loves and protects us

we are the sheep and He is the Shepard

He who sent us Jesus

let us be forever paired

our hands held with the King

long live our God

long live our Savior

long live our dearest Father

(end chorus)

(bridge)

in those dark days

let Him be the light

in those unforgiving times

let Him heal your plight

long live our one and only God

(chorus)

long live our Heavenly King

long live our Father

who loves and protects us

we are the sheep and He is the Shepard

He who sent us Jesus

let us be forever paired

our hands held with the King

long live our God

long live our Savior

long live our dearest Father

(end chorus)

TAKE ME TO THE DANCEFLOOR

(verse 1)

the starry night sky

has a shooting light through it

reflecting in your eye

keeping my frosty cool

I put on my dancing shoes

and head out

it doesn't matter, does it?

my anxiety's through the roof

forget it, my baby,

all those damn problems and get into paradise

(chorus)

oh let's dance tonight

oh love me, darling now

dreams come alive just like the sleepless city

let's dance tonight

oh love me, darling

no matter if you're dripping and sweaty

don't stop, dance! don't stop, dance!

don't stop, dance! don't stop, dance!

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

putting my earring on

looking into the mirror

that reflects back the night I'm upon

looking pretty good

keep it a secret but I'm not feeling hot

you can count on me

to pull myself up, mama

one more time, for sure

pick it up and snap a funky step

(chorus)

oh let's dance tonight

oh love me, darling now

dreams come alive just like the sleepless city

let's dance tonight

oh love me, darling

now get a little gritty

shake and step, don't stop

(end chorus)

(bridge)

it doesn't matter, does it?

my anxiety's through the roof

forget it, my baby,

all those damn problems and get into paradise

(chorus)

oh let's dance tonight

oh love me, darling now

dreams come alive just like the sleepless city

oh let's dance tonight

oh love me, darling

no matter if you're dripping and sweaty

don't stop, dance!

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

let's get out of this hazy, crowded club

and head out into the summer air

better believe it, bub

I want to feel the night ride through my hair

cruising on the strip

savoring this bittersweet time with you

putting your hand around my curvy hip

this girl's never been in love before

and she's L.A. blue

she runs to get..

(chorus)

away from the city, gone with the sadness

head into space to the vastness

it's wonderful and thrilling

it's bold and it's chilling

to want a man in such a way

(end chorus)

(verse 4)

cool lights glow from the television

this hotel room suddenly feels so small

now tell me two lovers can't do long division

in your arms, I feel so safe and wanted

the smell of my lotion makes it feel tropical

soon now, living alone won't seem economical

we keep moving...

(chorus)

away from the city, gone with the sadness

I got wrapped in the madness

it's mysterious and serious

I'm oblivious, he's delirious

he loves his girl from night to light

(end chorus)

(chorus)

away from the city, gone with the sadness

head into the space to the vastness

it's wonderful and thrilling

it's bold and it's chilling

to want a man in such a way

(end chorus)

(outro)

away from the city, gone with the sadness

away from the city, gone with the sadness

away from the city, gone with the sadness

away from the city, gone with the sadness

Windy Summer

(verse 1)

I have never felt this free before

the sun in the sky is brighter than ever

the blue is deeper for sure

dancing in the warm sea

my heart has never felt this full

a new lease on an old life

surely these feelings won't get caught up in the gust

(chorus)

windy summer, the calendar says it's time for t-shirts

windy summer, play with me and my many smiles

together, forever , here we are, windy summer

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

there's no time for eternity's tears

I've been waiting for this moment for years

to have the money and the time for pure fun

this will be the best summer ever

friends and fireworks are gathered around me

the ocean breeze makes the air misty

I get caught up and lost in nature's warm beauty

(chorus)

windy summer, the breeze wraps around me and my body

windy summer, along with my heart and everybody

together, forever, here we are, windy summer

(end chorus)

(chorus)

windy summer, the calendar says it's time for t-shirts

windy summer, play with me and my many smiles

together, forever , here we are, windy summer

windy summer, the breeze wraps around me and my body

windy summer, along with my heart and everybody

together, forever, here we are, windy summer

(end chorus)

I Can't Ever Change Your Love For Me

(verse 1)

I had to learn to like myself

before others would like me

I had to smile for real

instead of letting them see

something that wasn't really

able to be true

but now these feelings

give me more happiness than I had hoped

this man is all that I will ever need

and then I will give him my best because, baby

(chorus)

oh, I can't ever change your love for me

you made me look in the mirror

that hung on the wall

then I gave love my all

oh, you can't ever love me once again

it's now or it's never

and so I go, before we say goodbye

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

however, my baby

I still miss you so much

love is hard to throw away when it's heavenly

we gave it all we got

but still I'm so thankful that I had

just a few months of your attention

you were crazy about me

and I fell in love truly for the first time

(chorus)

oh, I can't ever change your love for me

thanks for chasing away the things that made me blue

now I can see what's true

oh, you can't ever love me once again

something borrowed will not become blue

it will stay white

(end chorus)

(chorus)

oh, I can't ever change your love for me

you made me look in the mirror

that hung on the wall

then I gave love my all

oh, you can't ever love me once again

it's now or it's never

and so I go, before we say goodbye

(end chorus)

Driving My Love

(verse 1)

hop in the passenger's seat

I've got a route in mind

I'm going to take you for a ride

at least, that's my scenario

soon as the sun goes down

and you come around

I know tonight's for me

right now, I miss you so much

I wait patiently

but I can only tap my foot

and purse my lips

for so long

the city is getting restless

and I'm feeling sleepless

(chorus)

driving my love, the night's full of mystery

my heart, however, is full of our history

driving my love, all over our hometown

proclaiming he's mine, as long as he's down

tonight will be what we want

it is what it is, when you're in love

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I'm thinking that possibly

this skirt is too short

my hair is going flat

maybe I didn't use enough hairspray, I snort

no matter what, no matter the time of day

he always looks good

he says I look fine

teases me, and I can only laugh

he picks me up and carries me

off to the car and we drive off

(chorus)

driving my love, the night's full of mystery

my heart, however, is full of our history

driving my love, all over our hometown

proclaiming he's mine, as long as he's down

tonight will be what we want

it is what it is, when you're perfectly in love

(end chorus)

(bridge)

before long, I tell him it's my curfew

he says alright, we'll leave in a few

but he pulls me in for a kiss

during the day, he's what I miss

(chorus)

driving my love, the night's full of mystery

my heart, however, is full of our history

driving my love, all over our hometown

proclaiming he's mine, as long as he's down

tonight will be what we want

it is what it is, when you're in love

driving my love, the night's full of mystery

my heart, however, is full of our history

driving my love, all over our hometown

proclaiming he's mine, as long as he's down

tonight will be what we want

it is what it is, when you're perfectly in love

(end chorus)

Remember Summer Days

(verse 1)

summer days, hot highways, ocean waves

it's in my fond memories

that peculiar summer

when I had my first love

in my heart, expressed through art, here I dart

straight into your loving arms

let's kiss by the lake

and do everything and nothing

sayonara to loneliness and snow

you and me won't be lonely, no

as the sun sets and we begin to rest

my eyes close and then I...

(chorus)

remember summer days

that season with wind in my hair

ocean mist in the air, and you being there without a single care

oh, I love you

as we head into a colorful fall

I'll give you my all and love you with all my might

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

hand in hand, wedding band, feet in sand

let's walk an empty white beach

a fantasy out the window glass

I gaze out and turn my fan on full blast

sad moon, a song in tune, night to noon

let me sing you my favorite song

grab my waist as we dance

kiss me when there's a chance

before you have to go

this is what I want to know

is it summer love or was it just for show?

saying you'll be back, I watch you cut the slack

I cry, and then I

(chorus)

remember summer days

summer has come once again

you didn't refrain, you came in like a thunderstorm's rain

oh, I love you

I didn't forget all those good times

this summer and forever, let us be together as two

(end chorus)

(chorus)

remember summer days

that season with wind in my hair

ocean mist in the air, and you being there without a single care

oh, I love you

as we head into a colorful fall

I'll give you my all and love you with all my might

(end chorus)

I'll Do Well Anyway

(verse 1)

let the record scratch

let me get attached

he don't want to watch

as I miss my catch

I don't give a shit, I don't give a shit

whether it's an out of the park hit

we're running out of time and

won't be young much longer

not going to worry

not going to say sorry

going to finally feel like I'm grown

like a mistake, my age I will own

instead of a future of desolation

I want just a few four words to be my reputation

(chorus)

I'll do well anyway

every chance I ruin will go away

I'll do well anyway

I got the golden touch

and everyone follows what I say

I'll do well or I'll go through hell

a man of my word, so make sure it's heard

I'll do well or I'll go through hell

got to make it right just as I tell

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

got a black dress

promising I won't make a mess

coming into my own

all these years of skilled I honed

I'm sure they call me a bitch

when I let them know what's my itch

but I don't mind

they'll say that when they think I'm behind

like a canyon has its lows

like a bird has its highs

I skip fine details and I go below

but I look up and see those blue skies

I know I'll be free

if it's the last thing I'll ever be

(chorus)

I'll do well anyway

every chance I ruin will go away

I'll do well anyway

I got the golden touch

and everyone follows what I say

I'll do well or I'll go through hell

a man of my word, so make sure it's heard

I'll do well or I'll go through hell

got to make it right just as I tell

(end chorus)

(bridge)

express it through every move

I've spent all those moments up till now to prove

being genuine like a wine will win the day

and make those you love want to stay

express it through every move

I've spent all those moments up till now to prove

being genuine like a wine will win the day

will make you a winner in every way

(chorus)

I'll do well anyway

every chance I ruin will go away

I'll do well anyway

I got the golden touch

and everyone follows what I say

I'll do well or I'll go through hell

a man of my word, so make sure it's heard

I'll do well or I'll go through hell

got to make it right just as I tell

(end chorus)

Americana

(verse 1)

apple pies and picket fences

bus stops and pastel colors decorating

the sidewalk complete with unusable pieces of chalk

that can't fit in little fingers no more

handmaid signs and homemade beverages

fun for all ages

the block party of the century

all the men joke

but it's the American dream

before it all broke

(chorus)

everything that happens behind closed doors

stays there where it stays poor

but they serve up more drinks

and just talk about how it stinks

tracing the red and white stripes

counting the blue stars in lines

eating the world like all the fruits are ripe

taking all the changes in stride

being cookie cutter and the spitting image of perfection

right here's our little slice of havana

it's simply Americana

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

talking about each other behind other's backs

holding nothing sacred

the good people who mind their own business

are the ones who are most at risk

but at least there's pie

eat your feelings

try not to attract their eyes

when you're alone

that's when you satisfy your cravings

(chorus)

everything that happens behind closed doors

stays there where it stays poor

but they serve up more drinks

and just talk about how it stinks

tracing the red and white stripes

counting the blue stars in lines

eating the world like all the fruits are ripe

taking all the changes in stride

being cookie cutter and the spitting image of perfection

right here's our little slice of havana

it's simply Americana

(end chorus)

(bridge)

so I disappeared

only to be seen on occasion

never to return to that town again

even though the mayor has a mistress

this town is never in distress

your problems they'll dismiss

they're all miserable, to feel better they diss

waiting for someone to take the bad succession

so I can just have my damn peace

(chorus)

everything that happens behind closed doors

stays there where it stays poor

but they serve up more drinks

and just talk about how it stinks

tracing the red and white stripes

counting the blue stars in lines

eating the world like all the fruits are ripe

taking all the changes in stride

being cookie cutter and the spitting image of perfection

right here's our little slice of havana

it's simply Americana

(end chorus)

Quiet Life

(verse 1)

running into those old friends

you ain't seen in awhile

it's weird how nothing changed about this place

besides those who continued to live in this space

while I was gone

now a stranger, possible danger

because I got out and they stayed in

(chorus)

everything's still predictable

everything's still laid out on the table

the quiet life is still irresistible

and for many to this day

not doing much is okay

it may make outsiders suspicious

how none of these people have a wish

living so content

even if others left and went

moved on to greater things

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

out here in the middle of nowhere

you don't gotta be there

to know what's happening

if you still have a tie to that land

even if an outcast was banned

you'd know what still happened

because everyone's business

is your one weakness

(chorus)

everything's still predictable

everything's still laid out on the table

the quiet life is still irresistible

and for many to this day

not doing much is okay

it may make outsiders suspicious

how none of these people have a wish

living so content

even if others left and went

moved on to greater things

(end chorus)

(bridge)

it's not complex

but it's entertaining

no matter the prospect

rich, poor, in between, or something

everyone hates each other

but loves the drama of everyone and their brother

(chorus)

everything's still predictable

everything's still laid out on the table

the quiet life is still irresistible

and for many to this day

not doing much is okay

it may make outsiders suspicious

how none of these people have a wish

living so content

even if others left and went

moved on to greater things

(end chorus)

Family Song

(verse 1)

when I woke up and wiped off my drool

light smiled into the window, and I went off to school

the blue of the sky, and the green of the dancing grass

the traces of the folded towel I used before going to class

two people made a person

who met a person and had a son

now all in this full house

you got to know the evening melody

keeps everyone happy

until they are so sleepy

(chorus)

ta-dah! that happiness, that kindness

I hope with you it'll stay 

and get you through the pleasant work day

the sadness, the loneliness

will turn into a bridge

that you can cross and connects all of us

even in the furthest places

there will be traces of our family

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

what did the two of you feel when you had your first meeting?

the color of our blood, the shape of our hearts, it all has meaning

but it'd sure be nice if I could stay by your side

even when I've grown and hit my stride

I hope the day leaps through the distant buildings

and lights up the path home I'm walking

won't you send me your prayers?

through the street-lit melody here

(chorus)

ta-dah! that happiness, that kindness

I hope with you it'll stay 

and get you through the pleasant work day

the sadness, the loneliness

will turn into a bridge

that you can cross and connects all of us

(end chorus)

(bridge)

"you can go anywhere"

my dad said to me here

"you can be what you wanna be"

my grandma said to me

(chorus)

ta-dah! that happiness, that kindness

I hope with you it'll stay 

and get you through the pleasant work day

the sadness, the loneliness

will turn into a bridge

that you can cross and connects all of us

the smiles and worth-whiles

I hope with you they'll stay

even if it's just for a single day

I hope the taste of your tears

will become strength to fight your fears

and the bridge of bonds that connects us

will take you to the farthest places

(end chorus)

Love

(verse 1)

it's so confusing

I don't fully understand it myself

but the moment you said yes

you had my heart all to yourself

I remember that date

we were out late

when all the people and crows had long gone home

still, we wanted to be left alone

the streets enlivened us

the evening settles in

I want to get back home to you too

I became old enough to realize

everyone in the world starts from two people

(chorus)

my heart knows what my mind knows too

forever you are mine, and that's all good and fine

love will never fade if trust is here to stay

just know my soul is with you always

what fades away someday and what we won't say

pay no mind because I fell in love

with laced fingers and the scent of your cheek

your future is what I seek

beyond husband and wife speak

love's on the menu all week

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

let swans carry it far

the concealed ugly feelings or whatever they are

changing is taken for granted

because stability is what we wanted

perhaps I got it from pieces of fiction

a hopeless romantic can only mention

love can be born and the story begins with one person

(chorus)

my heart knows what my mind knows too

forever you are mine, and that's all good and fine

love will never fade if trust is here to stay

just know my soul is with you always

what fades away someday and what we won't say

pay no mind because I fell in love

with laced fingers and the scent of your cheek

your future is what I seek

beyond husband and wife speak

love's on the menu all week

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I want your face

and a night of silence

and that smile that sends me to space

forevermore, forevermore

(chorus)

my heart knows what my mind knows too

forever you are mine, and that's all good and fine

love will never fade if trust is here to stay

just know my soul is with you always

what fades away someday and what we won't say

pay no mind because I fell in love

with laced fingers and the scent of your cheek

your future is what I seek

beyond husband and wife speak

love's on the menu all week

two people together all week

I'm a happy person every week

(end chorus)

Mango

(verse 1)

splash, into the deep blue sea

splash, into this ice cold drink, baby

splash, into the summer feeling

it'll be gone, it's already leaving

splash, with you by my side

splash, the spaces open up so wide

splash, we can run alongside the beach

there's so many things I want to do

but they all involve you

my friend, let's keep burning up until summer's end

(chorus)

surprisingly mango, surprisingly mango

romance is alive, and all is well with you

not yet, not yet, I don't want to go home yet

with a tasty mango, we can go

anywhere we want into the blue

everything that we get

this fruit can beat the heat

I want you to have a fun summer with me

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

breeze, through my short brown hair

breeze, keeps my dog and me cool

breeze, on this walk the sunset looks like a light pool

breeze, even on this hot night

breeze, everything will be alright

breeze, the sand in our toes and the day above is so bright

let's go find somewhere tropical and pretty

I've been feeling I need a taste of adventure lately

(chorus)

overripened mango, overripened mango

youth is alive, and all is well with you

hey you, hey you, there's no reason to be blue

with a tasty mango, we can be

chilling and floating on the sea

everything that we get

this fruit can beat the heat

I want you to have a long summer with me

(end chorus)

(bridge)

there's so many things I want to do

but they all involve you

my friend, let's keep burning up until summer's end

(chorus)

surprisingly mango, surprisingly mango

romance is alive, and all is well with you

not yet, not yet, I don't want to go home yet

with a tasty mango, we can go

anywhere we want into the blue

everything that we get

this fruit can beat the heat

I want you to have a fun summer with me

(end chorus)

Once Again

(verse 1)

(baby, let us try again)

your arm around my waist so skinny

my heart is filled and positively giddy

but then, like it's winter you act so cold

got me thinking that we're too old

to act in such a way

then I throw it all away like the trash

(chorus)

today especially, I feel a little sad (I'm feeling blue)

together baby, we aren't all that bad, even so

love isn't something in which you can just play

Cupid will surely make you pay

why can't we just be in love?

and now, I'm willing to forgive

please be careful

with me, baby

I'm fearful

of being hurt

take hold of me

and heal my sick heart

(we share loneliness, we share happiness, baby

let's try again

we share loneliness, we share happiness, baby

let us try again)

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the happiness

I forgot it all

the sadness

I'm standing tall

and once again

I'm not feeling small

(chorus)

like you do

you save the day in every way (I'll never leave you)

you're the hero

that made it to first from zero

and, you're a little closer to my soul

not just a piece of me, you can have the whole

we can be everything including so happy

you and me, together all day

you and me, together always

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

your arm around my waist so skinny (let's try again)

my heart is filled and positively giddy (let's try again)

(let's try again) let's try again

(let's try again) let's try again

(we share loneliness, we share happiness, baby

let's try again) let's try again

we share loneliness, we share happiness, baby

let us try again) let's try again

Tell Me, Tell Me

(verse 1)

tell me, tell me, baby

love me, love me, baby

when you treat me bad

when you make me sad

maybe you'll tell me what's going on

my greatest love of all

even Mrs. Houston can't recall

the last time two people felt like this

with our walls crumbled sharing a oh so tender kiss

in the snow

our hands tied under the sheets

wanting to get home and off the streets

just to enjoy some burgundy wine

and spend some precious time

naked alone up in your room

(chorus)

tell me, tell me why do we

have to be apart?

show me, show me love can sparkle

like chardonnay and fine art

please tell me, my sweet baby

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

no matter where you go

there's one thing you should know

I'm at home and I cooked too much food

come grab a plate and end our feud

when you treat me bad

when you make me sad

maybe you'll tell me what's going on

how can I make it up

just before time is up?

I'm going to tell you what's on my mind

always and forever 

you and me made an oath we can't sever

a little love and a lot of warmth

goes a long way

from the south to the north

I believe in me and you

because you're cool even when I'm blue

sayonara to what I once knew

gazing out at that sunset hue

I'm born again and brand new

(chorus)

sorry, sorry I'll take all the petty blame

hurry, hurry I want to start a new two-player game

one where you and I are both winners

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

when you bent down on one knee

I jumped into your arms with such glee

so I can't leave it in the fireplace to burn

no matter how the tables turn

your hand in mine is what I yearn

(bridge)

hold me, hold me I don't care how long

love me, love me show me a man can be strong

and a love a woman and give her a place to belong

you can depend on me

when morning comes you will see

I was here through your nightmare

with words of strength and lots of care

I won't ever let you go

words of love go a long way

all you have to ask is for me to stay

I'll be there Sunday to Saturday

(chorus)

tell me, tell me, tell me

show me, show me, show me

you're the only one for me

sorry, sorry, sorry

hurry, hurry, hurry

I'm the only one for you

hold me, hold me, hold me

love me, love me, love me

everything will be alright

tell me, tell me, tell me

show me, show me, show me

you're the only one for me

(end chorus)

Continuation of the Dream

(chorus)

baby, baby don't look so sad

there's gonna be a better tomorrow

behind the heavy door's a blue sky with no sorrow

just white fluffy clouds

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

another day just like bland yesterday has closed

your girl fell asleep with a deep sigh once again

another unfilled promise is the reason why as usual

yet again you're gonna dream for tomorrow

(chorus)

baby, baby close your eyes

go back into your endless dream

a smile will be back on your face

before you wake from that place

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

as you believe only in good things just like me

someday you'll find yourself able to forgive and just live

the one whom you loved so much

and the one who loved you so much

they are just mere illusions if you look back, you see

(chorus)

baby, baby don't think you're lonely

don't give up loving somebody new

repeated goodbyes come and leave, don't get discouraged, please

keep your spirits up

(end chorus)

(bridge)

ah, to be lonely and alone

ah, you're way too busy and you can't postpone

having ended up with another unfulfilled promise

at this point there's nothing to reminisce

another day of a continuation of the dream

that's what it seems

(chorus)

baby, baby don't look so sad

there's gonna be a better tomorrow

behind the heavy door's a blue sky with no sorrow

just white fluffy clouds

baby, baby close your eyes

go back into your endless dream

a smile will be back on your face

before you wake from that place

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

(just believe someday you'll find your hard time's gone

try not to look back on your yesterday

so keep on dreaming of tomorrow

don't you think you're lonely

don't give up on loving

someone's waiting just for you

just believe someday you'll find your hard time's gone

try not to look back on your yesterday

so keep on dreaming of tomorrow

don't you look so sad, girl

there will be a fine thing

everything will be alright

just believe someday you'll find your hard time's gone

try not to look back on your yesterday

so keep on dreaming of tomorrow

baby, close your brown eyes

go back to your dreaming

you can see the blue sky spread)

RIGHT ON TIME

(verse 1)

bluely, coming into my own

out here getting cut to the bone

feeling like all hope is lost

make the most

of what I got

but I don't want to plot

just to find someone to love

this mastermind will rise above

the whole world to find someone to hold

time passes by

but I ride high

(chorus)

right on time!

someone comes waltzing into my life

dancing on the edge of a sharp knife

loving dangerously

oh right on time!

just when I'd given up all hope

here at the end of my short rope

late fashionably

she's right on time

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

then oh no!

I fall so deeply

to the touches that are tenderly

the future's no longer scary

everything falls into place

I'm stuck in her heavenly grace

her jokes land like a heavy blow

if she's not there then I won't go

I'm wrapped around her finger like woah!

more kisses

no heartbreaks

just romantic dates

(chorus)

right on time!

the sun sets with waves crashing on my back

for her love I'd go on the attack

no one will hurt her

oh right on time!

falling in love is like a Flashdance

so exhilarating, what a feeling!

it keeps me believing we're right on time

(end chorus)

(bridge)

hmm

if she's not there then I won't go

more kisses

no heartbreaks

just romantic dates

(chorus)

right on time!

someone comes waltzing into my life

dancing on the edge of a sharp knife

loving dangerously

oh right on time!

just when I'd given up all hope

here at the end of my short rope

late fashionably

she's right on time

oh oh oh!

right on time!

the sun sets with waves crashing on my back

for her love I'd go on the attack

no one will hurt her

oh right on time!

falling in love is like a Flashdance

so exhilarating, what a feeling!

it keeps me believing we're right on time

right on time!

someone comes waltzing into my life

dancing on the edge of a sharp knife

loving dangerously

oh right on time!

just when I'd given up all hope

here at the end of my short rope

late fashionably

she's right on time

(end chorus)

Marmalade Goodbye

(verse 1)

it must be

you began to feel differently

your voice was so loud I started to fear the thunder

tie a yellow balloon around my finger

so I'll float away to a destination

where fruits are bountiful

and then I can still see you, beautiful

isn't that right?

a better man I can be

but when I crave sweets and look for you

and you're not there

I give up and leave the rain here

(chorus)

so hurry and run to my arms, baby

parting can be so sweet to the heart

I want to taste and embrace

my peachy marmalade

love is sour yet tasty

like orange that's zesty

more and more, more and more

I want my marmalade

I'm sorry

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I love you and everything you do

it was life and love I wanted to savor

but you treated me like I was part of the Outsiders

(chorus)

beauty and grace are you, my baby

your eyes shine like the sun on the sea

so long as you are near, my cherry marmalade

I will long to remain here until the end of my days

more and more, more and more

someday I won't have to beg, marmalade

sayonara anyways

(end chorus)

(chorus)

so hurry and run to my arms, baby

parting can be so sweet to the heart

I want to taste and embrace

my peachy marmalade

love is sour yet tasty

like orange that's zesty

more and more, more and more

I want my marmalade

sayonara anyways

(end chorus)

LOVELAND, ISLAND

(verse 1)

oh loveland all for you, all for me

all summer long

tropical punch, so sweet you need a pinch

this place is heaven built by cupid for lovers

the heat only increases the passion

it's my mission

to be alone with my baby

in the blue lagoon

I will show you true paradise

(verse 2)

oh loveland, it's right here, look over there

it is sacred

two people meet and walk down the sandy beach

hand in hand

two hearts and two rhythms march

two futures shine bright like a rainbow prism

oh island, keep me wanting this summer season

I want to ask her to marry me

(chorus)

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

(end chorus)

(bridge)

it's my dearest dream

to bend down on one knee

and ask you this summer to marry

and sail with me on the emerald sea

oh loveland, a vacay or home to stay

it's a reason

to leave it all behind

and enjoy a vacation

the light of love

shines bright like the sun

and when it sets

you take all the love you can get

(chorus)

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, woo!

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

oh loveland, oh island

I love you

(end chorus)

(chorus)

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

oh loveland, oh island

I love you, I love you

(end chorus)

SPARKLE

(verse 1)

we made it to the summer

and splashed in the sea

forgetting about that turbulent spring

where you said you hated my yellow shirt

and I finally learned how to forgive

(chorus)

and now let's have

a happy time

a mysterious season for love

light a match on the fourth of July

let's watch the sky sparkle

and let our love fly

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

we stopped the fighting

we fought off the blues

and now I can't stop staring

into those precious green eyes

because you got me

I'm your thankful friend for countless tries

(chorus)

it's wonderful

how you're with me

and fantastically

we are the summer heat

you're in this hammock with me

our life's a barefooted beach

(end chorus)

(chorus)

and now let's have

a happy time

a mysterious season for love

light a match on the fourth of July

let's watch the sky sparkle

and let our love fly

(end chorus)

wonder in your world

sparkle in my heart

wonder in your world

sparkle in my heart

wonder in your world

sparkle in my heart

wonder in your world

sparkle in my heart

Jungle Swing

(verse 1)

your nickname for me lovingly

was always Tarzan

because I'm that man

I know just how to be

dancing and prancing

kinda wild, not fake, and you like it

Jane, do not deny it

my golden girl likes

sweet soul music

when you're around

you're the talk of the town

the animals know it too

so step to my rhythm

let's dance with the best of them

(chorus)

let's do the jungle swing

tonight, let's bring

a brand new kind of swing

you're in my veins

let's do the jungle swing

dance like we have wings

do it all night long

do it all night long

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

it's like fire from the torches

it's like water from the mountains

so pure and untouchable

like you, it's loveable

going around and drinking the juice

the groove gets her loose

it's animalistic

and absolutely fantastic

(chorus)

let's do the jungle swing

tonight, let's bring

a swing swing swing

you're in my veins

let's do the jungle swing

dance like we have wings

do it all night long

do it all night long

(end chorus)

Cowboy Blues

(verse 1)

take me out west

where the foundation is dry

but the brew is wet

lay me down in the green grass

let me plant something wild and free

and watch it grow

with his sturdy frame in my view

why did I fall in love

and then leave that bull-rider?

the realest thing I ever knew

it was all right here

tucked into the quilt of my heart

sleeping quietly in my hometown

(chorus)

tracing the rocky mountains

dancing barefoot in cold rains

forget I left and take hold of me

leave the girl you took as a partner

I'll stick around and won't leave no longer

let me sing you my life's love song, cowboy blues

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

riding shotgun in your old pickup

just as always

the lonely highway feels warm

the sun in the dusty sky

can fry up my insecurities about you

you're my baby

I'll take care of you

you watch out for me

I've got your back 

and picked up your slack

(chorus)

trying to hide from the sun

leaving the shade and going on the run

taking a chance and getting married

your mama probably hates me

my daddy thinks you're sleazy

our twisted lives have become a love song, cowboy blues

(end chorus)

(bridge)

even if a tornado shakes us up

I'll pour happiness in your cup

anyway

(chorus)

tracing the rocky mountains

dancing barefoot in cold rains

forget I left and take hold of me

leave the girl you took as a partner

I'll stick around and won't leave no longer

let me sing you my life's love song, cowboy blues

trying to hide from the sun

leaving the shade and going on the run

taking a chance and getting married

your mama probably hates me

my daddy thinks you're sleazy

our twisted lives have become a love song, cowboy blues

(end chorus)

My Sweet Home

(verse 1)

it's so easy to be ashamed of where you come from

but how can I deny where I went to prom?

brick by brick my whole life was built here

coming back was my greatest fear

but I admit I missed my sweet home

my first kiss happened on that same park bench

(kiss and tell I will not)

my first birthday party was at that restaurant

(where the fries are still French)

somehow it still has that sparkle

and I can only wonder

where the kids I grew up with have wandered

(chorus)

I remember those lazy times

all those school days and summers are a haze

but they bring a sunny smile to my face

everyone, I hope you're still doing well

me, myself, I'm doing swell

life's a beach as usual

but I want to go home to where it's beautiful

it's the place where the tea is so sweet

it's the place where Sundays are a treat

it is called my sweet, sweet home

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

it's magical how people change

it's mysterious how places stay the same

but if I get the chance

to say hello to the past names

I once knew by heart

that guy who was the life of the party

that girl who was a smarty

I wonder where the road of life took them

somehow it still has that sparkle

and I can only wonder

where the kids I grew up with have wandered

(chorus)

it's the place where the tea is so sweet

it's the place where Sundays are a treat

it is called my sweet, sweet home

I remember those lazy times

all those school days and summers are a haze

but they bring a sunny smile to my face

everyone, I hope you're still doing well

me, myself, I'm doing swell

life's a beach as usual

but I want to go home to where it's beautiful

it's the place where the tea is so sweet

it's the place where Sundays are a treat

it is called my sweet, sweet home

it is called my sweet, sweet home

it's surely, my sweet, sweet home

(end chorus)

Gypsy

(verse 1)

a land of dunes and sand through an hourglass

it's October but the heat is relentless

it's been a long time

it's not home but it has a chime

and a girl so mysterious wrapped in red

he wants to know my sweet name

but I'm not forthright and it's all a game

I was born a little spark

grew into an ember

a woman that's a flame all windy November

he wants to dance with my band of thieves

my hips wrapped in gold and orange like the leaves

he wants me to be his oasis in the dry

but I'm his pretty antithesis but why?

(chorus)

lalalalala

the beginning is sometimes also the ending

all melted into one being

lalalalala

the way of the gypsy queen is to be free without a king

lalalalala

just when he thinks he's about to get her embrace

she disappears like incense smoke in his rugged face

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

she's notorious all throughout Egypt

he wishes to hold her like a secret that can be kept

her heart like a pyramid

so notorious it's like she hid

an encounter that's like a desert daze

he began to wonder if she's just a mere mirage

a criminal on the run she's at large

he'll never understand

a woman's always on guard

unbreakable like marble hard

he romances the possibility of life on a caravan

following her word and every command

but it'll never work out

because she has a strong spirit

(chorus)

lalalalala

the beginning is sometimes also the ending

all melted into one being

lalalalala

the way of the gypsy queen is to be free without a king

lalalalala

just when he thinks he's about to get her embrace

she disappears like incense smoke in his rugged face

(end chorus)

Surf Heaven, Ski Heaven

(verse 1)

surf and snow

it's nice to have this much money

where I can spend holiday with my honey

anywhere I could possibly want to go

either sand or white snow

spice it up with a shopping trip

before flying out to where we slip away

Versace and Gucci and much more

all the things I adore

(chorus)

no matter where we go

the sun will watch our fun

review the pamphlets and enjoy the view

splashing in the waves

or riding down the slopes

I'm feeling cold

is it the drink or terrain?

as long as I'm with you

the sky will always be blue

let's have cocoa at the lodge

ski heaven, there it is

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I guess the grass is always greener

or maybe the palm trees are taller

the beach house where we hide at

has got me thinking about that

I could be in my Chanel and sandals

a hammock could be my cradle

drifting off to the sounds of sea

and surfboard riding

(chorus)

no matter where we go

the sun will watch our fun

review the pamphlets and enjoy the view

splashing in the waves

or riding down the slopes

I'm feeling hot

is it the drink or terrain?

as long as I'm with you

the sky will always be blue

let me put on my coconut bra

surf heaven, there it is

let's have cocoa at the lodge

ski heaven, there it is

(end chorus)

Canna Lilies on Route 8

(verse 1)

a checkered shirt sways in the wind

and I gazed behind

I wanted to burn the waves

in the background into my two eyelids

so it'd belong to me

it's an ephemeral sunlight photo

reminiscent of a painful heat haze

the day will come when the album

in my heart will close like a phantom

I was scared all the time of a hoax

clouds of black shadows

aimed arrows

cross next to you

(chorus)

oh no I am captivated

by sweet memories in opaque glass bottles

oh he came this far liberated

the two of us from that time have departed

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

canna lilies were burning and swaying

in the central division zone

I couldn't wait to pick a route

to go on eight Sundays

like the old days

I wanted to laugh

it wouldn't be cute of me

if I didn't feel towards you envy

so do not worry

open the doors

hear the waves

take photographs

(chorus)

oh no I am captivated

by sweet memories in opaque glass bottles

oh he came this far liberated

the two of us from that time have departed

oh no I am captivated

by sweet memories in opaque glass bottles

oh he came this far liberated

the two of us from that time have departed

oh no I am captivated

by sweet memories in opaque glass bottles

oh he came this far liberated

the two of us from that time have departed

(end chorus)

Refrain

(verse 1)

how is that? how is it that?

how did we ever meet?

I once held you in my arms so very tight

your familiar scent was so very right

the last sunset we saw during spring together

vanished on the hood of my car

as it lit up the mackerel sky afar

I'll go back to the road's bend

as if you were there in that parking lot

where we once got out at

our convertible to reach the sandy beach

(chorus)

how is that? how is it that

we ever split up

when I loved you without interruption

the little lights on the cape begin to gleam

I'm standing in the same place as before in a dream

with only the sea breeze's arm around my shoulder

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I play a worn out, case-less cassette

one of your favorites for the first time in awhile

I never realized it and yet

the refrain is crying out in such a sad style

(chorus)

how is that? how is it that

I wasn't kind as possible to you

if this means you'll fade into the blue

people to stop regretting the things they've done

as they wander countless times stunned

through unforgettable landscapes

(end chorus)

(bridge)

now's the only chance I cling to

to drive and abandon the sunset glow

(chorus)

how is that? how is is that?

how did we ever meet?

I once held you in my arms so very tight

your familiar scent was so very right

how is that? how is it that

we ever split up

when I loved you without interruption

how is that? how is it that

I wasn't kind as possible to you

if this means you'll fade into the blue

(end chorus)

Hello, My Friend

(verse 1)

hello, my friend

one summer I fell in love with you

ahh, it was short

a time so cruel and moody too

a summer just like that

destiny, you knew for awhile, didn't you?

there was a, tranquility and simplicity

that we can't get back, ahh

(chorus)

all the sadness, all the sadness

made me search for a way home

let me call you my dear friend

even though I won't see you again

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

hello, my friend the stores have started to close

for the year

a typhoon's on the way, it cools down the place

yesterday, I embrace the pain from the summer

I fell for you

every single time

this season's in a hurry

do you think of me? ahh

(chorus)

the loneliness, the loneliness

I cannot help but think of you

let me be your dear friend

deep down in your heart

even though we're apart

(end chorus)

(bridge)

chide me, gently

when I hurry

through life

help me get through the world

(chorus)

all the sadness, all the sadness

I continue to feel when I call your name

the following summers will never be the same

ever since I lost my friend

all the sadness, all the sadness

made me search for a way home

let me call you my dear friend

even though I won't see you again

the loneliness, the loneliness

I cannot help but think of you

let me be your dear friend

deep down in your heart

even though we're apart

(end chorus) 

 

 Don’t Let Me Go

(verse 1)

as the way the water is rough

where a river meets an ocean

you know my guard is always tough

except around my baby

I’ve lived this way through so many summers

a mastermind even when she slumbers

I’d like to be on cloud nine

if only my fears would let me

 

wondering what’s behind the door

planning for something more

trying to fashion a weapon

out of ordinary objects

never showing my side or myself

because I’m afraid you’ll run and hide yourself

It’s in my mind, in my mind

 

(chorus)

and I ask of you

will you kill me at that time with song

if I wander too far in the wrong?

promise me once more

you’re my guardian knight to be

don’t let me, don’t let me go

if it comes to blows

I know you’ll be one to strike

my bad dreams are always right

especially for me

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

my psychic powers alerted me

of a perfect storm

everything fell excellently

into the wrong form

 

this razor sharp intuition

will bring door to fruition

always, always

 

(chorus)

forevermore

I’d gaze with you into the night sky

I’d tell you vague and pretty lies

so you’ll promise me once more

the shining canvas

With black paint, I ruined it

I want to, I want to know

will I go down fighting?

or just easy dreaming?

my predictions are always right

(end chorus)

 

(bridge)

I’ve lived this way through so many summers

a mastermind even when she slumbers

 

(chorus)

and I ask of you

will you kill me at that time with song

if I wander too far in the wrong?

promise me once more

you’re my guardian knight to be

don’t let me, don’t let me go

if it comes to blows

I know you’ll be one to strike

my bad dreams are always right

especially for me

(end chorus)

Fireflies & Shooting Stars

(verse 1)

being outside underneath the stars

was a good date idea, my honey

being with you and seeing how you are

making me laugh at shrewd things that are funny

 

where will we go next from here, my honey?

or can we stay here a little longer in nature

your jacket over my shoulders

being giddy because I’m happy

 

(chorus)

wondering if astronauts go surfing on the Milky Way

does the Andromeda galaxy ever come out to play?

what I thought was twinkling shining stars, it’s not what they are

you whisper underneath the foliage up to the sky

“it’s a rain shower of fireflies”

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

in the last minutes of our romantic date, my honey

you pull out your lighter and pretend it’s a candle

and my heart glides because I’m rich with no money

 

use my lap as a pillow on this gingham picnic blanket, my honey

I run my fingers through your hair for communication

and I wish this moment in time

could be a vacation

 

(chorus)

pretending to close my eyes and make wishes

you keep your hands steady on my heartbeat

and just as I feel the summer heat

you say to me kind of bizarre

“look up, a shooting star!”

(end chorus)

 

(chorus)

wondering if astronauts go surfing on the Milky Way

does the Andromeda galaxy ever come out to play?

what I thought was twinkling shining stars, it’s not what they are

you whisper underneath the foliage up to the sky

“it’s a rain shower of fireflies”

(end chorus)

A Midsummer Night's Dream

(verse 1)

give me a kiss like tequila on these lips

one that melts me down to the bones

a kiss just like embers

the June night air is like stifling música around you

still we do an intense dance

to show them how it's done

look at me, longingly

the dreams are

keeping me waiting from afar

(chorus)

watch me some more

right at the tragic end

it looks like you blazed aflame and burned

sayonara, I'll never forget how you're uncontrolled

and the hot tango between our souls

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

fireworks soaring up into the thin air

then rain down on us like squall that don't care

sparkling, shining

memories finish their lovelorn run

your dark shadow's all mine

and so is your valuable time

realizing without us

visualizing how we faded away

(chorus)

hold me some more

right at the very end

so tight I break and can't breathe

sayonara, my true amore, amore

there's only one man for me in history

(end chorus)

(bridge)

the lights dance

the floor turns and I take a chance

(chorus)

a Caribbean night

watch me some more

right at the tragic end

it looks like you blazed aflame and burned

sayonara, I'll never forget how you're uncontrolled

and the hot tango between our souls

hold me some more

right at the very end

so tight I break and can't breathe

sayonara, my true amore, amore

there's only one man for me in history

a Caribbean night

ah, it's getting so late

the rhythm feels great

sayonara, I'll never forget how you're uncontrolled

and the hot tango between our souls

a Caribbean night

(end chorus)

Sunny Day Holiday

(verse 1)

make me lonely

and when I break into pieces

glue me back together

and then forever after

gaze at my cracks

make me crazy

with me feel every wind's breeze

no matter what's up your sleeve

as long as there's no grief

for the sake of me

let's only have fun times

let's lay under the sun, so sublime

as long as we're together

forever

(chorus)

so up high, sunny day

it's so right, holiday

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

if I loved you then

I'm infatuated now

no matter where you go

you should just know

I'm with you there

even if the storm gets windy and rough

I don't have to worry because you're tough

a man and woman against nature

with a love that nurtures

(chorus)

it's so right, always

and at night, all the ways

(end chorus)

(bridge)

and my nightly wish

so you won't see, I give it wash

wiping away so you won't think I'm silly

holding each other tight in rain

being there all the same

like I've ascended to heaven

it's your heart I'm in

make me lonely

just a little more

so that I will miss you

and then run to you

to turn red from blue

let's only have fun times

let's lay under the sun, so sublime

as long as we're together

forever

(chorus)

so up high, sunny day

it's so right, holiday

so up high, sunny day

it's so right, holiday

(end chorus)

I Can… I Can’t Wait For You Anymore

(verse 1)

ooh, where is love?

ooh, I can’t wait for you anymore

 

it was a fine Thursday, the wind blew through my dark long straight hair

my coffee went ice cold and I realized our love had done the same

 

promises are just like government bonds

they mature but you may never cash them in

I was lucky I jumped out through the window

all of your woes, all of your woes

finally caught up to my brain

 

(chorus)

ooh, where is love?

out the open door

I can’t wait for you anymore

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

it was almost a cold spring

now it’s a rainy, mild summer

we decided to be just friends

but even that would meet its end

 

freedom was when you pointed a finger

and I decided I was a marathon runner

one night imagining had me

plotting escape, plotting escape

like a villain in a red cape

 

(chorus)

ooh, where is love?

with your caring mama

I can’t wait for you anymore

(end chorus)

 

(bridge)

I can, no, I can’t wait for you

I have, I have so many important things to do

I lied, when I said you’re not a bother

but well, it’s the truth

 

(chorus)

ooh, where is love?

out the open door

I can’t wait for you anymore

ooh, where is love?

sayonara

I can’t wait for you anymore

ooh, where is love?

with your caring mama

I can’t wait for you anymore

ooh, where is love?

sayonara

I can’t wait for you anymore

(end chorus)

groove in retro

(verse 1)

ooh yeah

a jet with all the luxuries

pop the vintage bubbly

in private

 

ooh yeah

a priceless antique vase

the look on my rich face

is relaxing

 

(chorus)

living the life of Riley up in Beverly

the hills with all the famous thrills

walking like a 60s beauty queen

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

ooh yeah

a retro groove you

can vibe and buy into

flying high

 

ooh yeah

what to buy with all this money

I’ll spend it on you, honey

only

 

(chorus)

as the world spins, I will always win

embedded gold and lined with silver

the thought alone makes me shiver

(end chorus)

 

(chorus)

if everyone could have a single wish

they’d live a life like this

nothing but pure bliss

(end chorus)

 

(bridge)

ooh yeah

a retro groove

grab my Maserati keys

flying high

 

ooh yeah

a jet with all the luxuries

pop the vintage bubbly

always

ooh yeah

Blue Lagoon

(chorus)

ah, my lovely, my love

let's walk barefoot on the sandy blue lagoon

ah, breeze, the green breeze

will surely pick me up and carry me

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

your sharp jawline

and my sundress design

surprisingly go so well together

I get distracted just like I'm a little girl

at your brown eyes and the fine weather

you're sparkling like the water of the lagoon

I feel that before noon

really really soon

I'll tell you I love you

(chorus)

ah, my lovely, my love

let's walk barefoot on the sandy blue lagoon

ah, breeze, the green breeze

will surely pick me up and carry me

(end chorus)

(bridge)

the time drifts

by like lazy fish

and my smile

will stay for awhile

you stand too close

and I try to make the most

but I get lost

in your fireworks

if it's just a crush

I don't want to lose trust

no these feelings

are real as your greetings

I know I love you

(chorus)

ah, my lovely, my love

let's walk barefoot on the sandy blue lagoon

ah, breeze, the green breeze

will surely pick me up and carry me

(end chorus)

Barefoot Season

(verse 1)

tear the white page off the calendar

it's the month of June to be

the perfect season of brides

and top down car rides

dreams come in the rare form

of fireflies that are born

but there's no place I'd rather be

than with the sea and you

(chorus)

I'm barefoot everywhere that I can go to

sandals just won't do

in the blue wind

we're laughing, we're loving, right now

at the little sea town

I see just one person

and his silhouette, oh

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

perhaps it is just that

he has a certain magic

I feel I can let my guard down

but only while he's around

oh my, oh my has he got a ring

on one knee he's bending

if this is a prank

I think I'll shrink

(chorus)

I'm barefoot everywhere that I can go to

sandals just won't do

in the blue sky

I won't, I will, no I can't

we're just so young

but it's that season

of silhouettes, oh

(end chorus)

(chorus)

I'm barefoot everywhere that I can go to

sandals just won't do

in the blue wind

we're laughing, we're loving, right now

at the little sea town

I see just one person

and his silhouette, oh

(end chorus)

Door of Summer

(verse 1)

my long hair up in a high ponytail

you flip through letters reading the mail

I grab your hand and lead you to a brand new land

one filled with warm air and adventure

the pretty sun matches my ribbon's color

we had a fight last night but no bother

let's kiss and let's make up

our vacation time is winding down

grab your chucks, we're hitting the town

(chorus)

fresh! fresh! fresh!

the yellow door of summer opens up

like lemonade that's been freshly made

fresh! fresh! fresh!

the door of summer will never close

it's an endless vacation, what's there to lose?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

keep me cool with orange sherbet

make me hot with kisses in sunsets

I held onto your short sleeve has you chased my sun hat

it got blown away in the breeze, that's that

finally a summer love of my own

you saw me come alive with affection shown

it doesn't have to be grand or a public display

I just want you to want me that way

(chorus)

fresh! fresh! fresh!

the yellow door of summer opens up

he never gives in, and I never give up

fresh! fresh! fresh!

the door of summer will never close

hug me from behind by the coast

fresh! fresh! fresh!

the door of summer will never close

it's an endless vacation, what's there to lose?

(end chorus)

Age of Our Innocence

(verse 1)

age of our innocence

together we

venture into adulthood

a mature mood

 

leaving behind our home towns

for a better future all around

breaking expectations and barriers

surpassing limits and superiors

 

let’s break away

spread wings and fly

we love our nests

but they know the reason why

I’ve got to make my own name

because they did the same

 

(chorus)

I believe in my love

and my life

suddenly it’s become my time

I believe in my love

pressure goes

and gets caught in my headspace

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

age of our innocence

my wish only

dissolves with the others

trying to stand out at this shaky age

working hard for too little wage

I’m a person not a machine

 

being the change

the world desperately needs

realizing at this age

it’s time to plant the seeds

the time in the spotlight is short

I’ll pass it on in the form of a note

 

(chorus)

I believe in my love

fully lean

into that ever-fleeing dream

I believe in my love

giving chase

it may not work out but it’s a chance

I believe in my love

(end chorus)

 

(bridge)

knowledge is a vehicle

not something that takes all my nickels

you try to keep us poor

but we crave more

 

wanting what’s best

for us and the rest

putting others first

and not being the worst

the kind of adult I wish to be

is learning from the mistakes of old

and setting us free

 

(chorus)

I believe in my love

and my life

suddenly it’s become my time

I believe in my love

pressure goes

and gets caught in my headspace

I believe in my love

fully lean

into that ever-fleeing dream

I believe in my love

giving chase

it may not work out but it’s a chance

I believe in my love

I believe in my love

I believe in my love

I believe in my love

(end chorus)

 

 

 

Ocean Blue

(verse 1)

they say money cannot buy pure happiness

but we worked hard and we finally got our sweet slice

of the high society pie

 

the lonely highway

is never travelled alone

they all know our names wherever we choose to go

in every social circle is someone we know

this summer on holiday

leave the world behind and privately jet away

I just need my little black Gucci dress

my packed Louis luggage, my Maserati, and no stress

 

(chorus)

come gaze upon the ocean blue

lounge around the world's horizon

capture this pretty moment on video

live in luxury with me and never let it go

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

enjoying life's little golden treasures

the one-percenter couple with nothing but love's pleasures

if it comes in a Tiffany box, I'll give it to you

the white, sparkling hotel glass

clinks just as well in sand as on green turf grass

the sun always shines on me and you

"pink champagne or Bacardi, doll?"

it's always nice to have many choices

ah, the world voices as we ride out in our Rolls-Royces

(chorus)

am I beautiful in the silver moon?

standing on our mansion's balcony

we're living our desired reality

you are the only number one for me

(end chorus)

(chorus)

come gaze upon the ocean blue

lounge around the world's horizon

capture this pretty moment on video

live in luxury with me and never let it go

am I beautiful in the silver moon?

standing on our mansion's balcony

we're living our desired reality

you are the only number one for me

come gaze upon the ocean blue

lounge around the world's horizon

capture this pretty moment on video

live in luxury with me and never let it go

(end chorus)

Happy Hour

(verse 1)

calm down, my darling

take a breath, if you need

we're in this turbulent time in our lives

let's go to the land of high fives

and have a drink on me

there we can think

about just me and you

these days I think Americana

romance me in your native Italiano

so I can just think about sunset days

no college deadlines, just Capri

I want to drown in cigars and old fashioneds

(chorus)

ahh, what a beautiful view

never-ending mimosas and strawberry martinis

I want to get drunk on my man

and contemplate my life over brandy

my heart says all my problems

can be solved with a few drinks

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I swear they just said it was happy hour

now they're hollering it's final call

pick yourself up, you lightweight

am I the only one that can hold her liquor?

(chorus)

we became quite the sight

but intoxication feels just right

I'm sure we'll regret in the morning

a hangover that feels like month old leftovers

but I had fun on this outing

(end chorus)

(chorus)

ahh, what a beautiful view

never-ending mimosas and strawberry martinis

I want to get drunk on my man

and contemplate my life over brandy

ahh, what a beautiful view

never-ending mimosas and strawberry martinis

I want to get drunk on my man

and contemplate my life over brandy

my heart says all my problems

can be solved with a few drinks

(end chorus)

Homework

(verse 1)

shoo bi, shoo bi, shoo bi, you love it

shoo bi, shoo bi, shoo bi, you love it

shoo bi, shoo bi, shoo bi, you love it

shoo bi, shoo bi, shoo bi, you love it

don't act like you think I did not know the facts

it's printed all over your face, it shows

all my friends and even some of your best buddies

said you noticed me on campus

head over heels for a girl that came to Cambridge from Kansas

oh woah

you act surprised that I've been keeping tabs

(chorus)

I do my homework

chemistry, biology, I know about boys

homework, top of the class, breaking the ceiling's glass

love is like homework

I'll let you take me out if you're not a jerk

homework

you're my top scholar, and I'm your best professor

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

you told your friend at your fraternity's party

word traveled fast to my sorority

saying you didn't think you could graduate

if I rejected your idea of a date

we girls have secrets that are confidential

oh woah

you're looking at me like I kiss and tell

(chorus)

I do my homework

chemistry, biology, I know about boys

homework, running in the higher institution of learning

love is like homework

everyone knows that I won't shirk

homework

you better study because I'll test you when you're ready

(end chorus)

(bridge)

shoo bi, shoo bi, shoo bi, you love it

110°F

(verse 1)

it's so humid

I wonder if you had heard

about how I am

my anxiety is as high as the temperature

but I'll be sure

to not mess this up somehow

da ba da ba do ba da

da ba da ba do ba da

da ba da ba do ba da

no one taught me how to fail

all I do is win

but time will weave a different tale

 da ba da ba do ba da

pineapple and coconuts will be provided

in my tropical paradise

the place I escape to

when I don't meet the goal

and I feel empty not whole

(chorus)

somewhere far away

a different location than the grey

it may be 110 degrees

but everything is free

why didn't anyone tell me youth would hurt?

they pat me on the back and tell me it's a growth spurt

growing pains leave permanent stains

that adulthood can't wash out for good

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

Fahrenheit not Celsius

plain sight not suspicious

I wonder what they all think of me

with I act idiotically

the truth is I can't remember their names now

but I'm sure they remember how

don't look for me in my bed

I'm in my head

at my wits end in the living room

take me away

for a straight jacket hotel stay

the men in white will be here soon

da ba da ba do ba da

da ba da ba do ba da

life's sneaking up from behind

the calendar's there to remind

that I'll be old and will descend

(chorus)

somewhere far away

a different location than the grey

it may be 110 degrees

but everything is free

why didn't anyone tell me youth would hurt?

they pat me on the back and tell me it's a growth spurt

growing pains leave permanent stains

that adulthood can't wash out for good

sa ba da ba da ba da ba da

da ba da ba do ba da

Midnight Run

(verse 1)

I'm running away from

the things that keep me up continuously at night

I'm not a kid, yet I'm not an adult

but I'm left alone with my hurt

I don't like violent confrontation

but in this perilous situation

I'm making a final stand

making fists out of my two hands

always looking out for others

but no one ever has to look out for me

the smoke of the past cinders smothers

but outside the night air is clean

I could really use a friend

but this looks like the end

my child self grabs my present hand

woah, woah, woah

(chorus)

Mom, Dad, I'm doing everything I can

everyone I promise that I'll win

and be stronger as a result

(midnight run)

the scary monsters hidden underneath my bed

the skeletons in the closet in my head

scare me no more

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

sunflowers are the harbinger of the season

it's summer, thank God

books on tape and religious chants are the reason

it's all that I had

I'm walking barefoot on black rose thorns

my weapon is self-love instead of scorn

sadness dies and blooms happiness

woah, woah, woah

(chorus)

big brother and little sister

depression's a person and I can't resist her

she hugs and won't let go

(midnight run)

there are a couple things that I've come to know

I'll keep sprinting on this yellow-bricked road

midnight run

(end chorus)

(chorus)

midnight run

Mom, Dad, I'm doing everything I can

Holiday in Acapulco

(verse 1)

we didn't go anywhere for spring break

we barely made the dean's list, let's escape the hate

perhaps somewhere we can practice our Spanish

dive into the emerald sea, explore the city, like Acapulco

(chorus)

the white veil of my sun hat tickles my neck, fufufu

the delicious smell in the air takes me, fufufu

Maria guides us to the rhythm, while we're here let's be like them

the light of the sun through my fingers, fufufu

these sweet feelings of summer lingers, fufufu

I'm just happy to be with you on this route

a holiday away in Acapulco

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

we arrived on Saturday and didn't want to leave on Friday

but real life's not a honeymoon

I pretend I'm a princess of the city

and from my boredom you rescue me

(chorus)

the blue sea and the wind captured in a photo, fufufu

the boats sail by but where do they go, fufufu

no matter where we are, I'm never far from my baby

we scrimped and saved from our part time jobs, fufufu

we made it to the goal and beat the odds, fufufu

we're young and want to have fun

we wanted to go, so we came to Acapulco

(end chorus)

(bridge)

don't hand the door key in

let's stay and tan our skin

it'll be hard to give up and return

you and I can still yearn

(chorus)

the white veil of my sun hat tickles my neck, fufufu

the delicious smell in the air takes me, fufufu

Maria guides us to the rhythm, while we're here let's be like them

the light of the sun through my fingers, fufufu

these sweet feelings of summer lingers, fufufu

I'm just happy to be with you on this route

a holiday away in Acapulco

Storm Is Coming

(chorus)

a storm is coming, it's tearing through the Bronx

it's blowing down doors, it doesn't even knock

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

whether we work on the street corners

or if we represent in meetings

it's like there's so many borders

jumping through hoops better than you

we're strong and we're smart

we're women and we're works of art

we're tough and we know it

we deserve success

and that's what we'll get

we'll control the land

we'll control the air

we want to equals

even though we control water

we're a hurricane coming your way

(chorus)

a storm is coming, it's tearing through the Bronx

it's blowing down doors, it doesn't even knock

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

we do it all

even with a child

we like a challenge

because we're all winners

due to society's imbalance

we're seen as sinners

break through the glass ceiling

throw stones at glass houses

give our lives meaning

and stand beside our spouses

a woman can be dangerous

she can be so generous

in our hearts we know how to have fun

but our hearts are what we guard like a nun

(bridge)

(we're on fire, oh we're on fire

break down my heart

let it be on fire)

whether we work on the street corners

or if we represent in meetings

it's like there's so many borders

jumping through hoops better than you

(chorus)

a storm is coming, it's tearing through the Bronx

it's blowing down doors, it doesn't even knock

raging the Hudson and the winter sea

don't bother calling the NYPD

(end chorus)

Rock'n'Roll Widow

(verse 1)

I've always had the spirit of a rock'n'roller

I'm married to the life, but it got a good lawyer

I don't want to settle down or have no babies

it's ride or die though my motorcycle's impounded

break my heart out of this prison

let my soul roar like an electric guitar

I'm going out tonight

and there ain't, there ain't, there ain't

there ain't, there ain't a damn thing you can do about it, alright?

(chorus)

rock'n'roll widow, uh huh huh

rock'n'roll widow, uh huh huh

the lifestyle may be done with me

but I'm not done with it

I'm still chandelier swinging

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I've always had the spirit of a rock'n'roller

I'm a bad woman not a little bad girl

shout and throw beer bottles at me

the thrill of danger is pure ecstasy

adrenaline rush gets me high as the sky

kick and smash to drum beats and basslines

and there ain't, there ain't, there ain't

there ain't, there ain't no cops at the bars

whoo!

(chorus)

rock'n'roll widow, uh huh huh

rock'n'roll widow, uh huh huh

the lifestyle may be done with me

but I'm not done with it

I'm still chandelier swinging

(end chorus)

Playback Part 2

(verse 1)

a face in a vision

so familiar

a phoenix legend

this is my trial

playing Möbius's game

so dramatic

feeling L.A. blue

taking a golden flight

the ghost of the past

comes back to haunt me

I'm not at home

I've got too much on my mind

but that's just between me and you

(chorus)

don't mess with me anymore

see my enemies to the door

just a minute

playback, playback

before I forget

playback, playback

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

don't mess with me anymore

stop keeping accurate score

it's all a numbers game

I've got my fortune and my fame

still I'm so poor

no friends, everything that breaks, bends

my mental health was on the mend

then it all went to hell

boy

if I wasn't so strong

I'd probably already be dead

if you weren't so wrong

I'd think you were right in the head

(bridge)

digging up old traumas

the wound won't close

so I can't heal

eek, it's back from the tomb

I drink wine with all my ghosts

I clean their sheets

and feed them if they're hungry

it's like a wind chilled and killed my fragile soul

I'll be this ornery even when I'm old

(chorus)

you need to check yourself

leave your attitude on the shelf

just a minute

playback, playback

schedule a visit

playback, playback

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

don't mess with me anymore

stop keeping accurate score

it's all a numbers game

I've got my fortune and my fame

still I'm so poor

no friends, everything that breaks, bends

my mental health was on the mend

then it all went to hell

boy

what? where?

there's a fire

I already knew it, I already knew it

I'm the one who set it

before I have the chance to forget

playback, playback

before I have the chance to forget

playback, playback

GAME IS OVER

(verse 1)

I forgot to save, I fought the final boss

I won anyway

if you're new here, one thing's clear

I'm tough so don't go there

and even then, probably

someone's gonna start a feud

all of this blood should be donated

and not spilled on the street

you started it, don't blame me

I've been on the edge of my seat

if you want to throw down

you've come to the right town

(chorus)

game is over

before it could even begin

game is over

no one knows I'm a player

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

it lies herein

you're a citizen and I'm the mayor

I call the shots

and you tie yourself in knots

I'm out on the yacht

and I left you in the parking lot

(bridge)

will I ever be happy?

can anything satisfy me?

the jury's still out on that case

it appears there's no evidence

and I can't go with grace

without rubbing it in your face

we've had all these matches

the score's been close

but I've always won

you should know by now

that I'm number one

no matter what comes at me

I never say sorry

(chorus)

game is over

before it could even begin

game is over

no one knows I'm a player

(end chorus)

(bridge)

one more time, folks

give it up for the away team

it all goes up like fireworks

it hits you it's reality

and not a dream

if you want to throw down

you've come to the right town

no matter what comes at me

I never say sorry

my beating heart's broadcasting

gum, gum, chewing on this music for you

heavy rotation

like when popcorn pops

California surf sounds

catchy tunes abound

spin it all day, every day over the radio waves

this feeling that I am expressing

is called love and it's sure exciting, right?

(chorus)

I want you (I want you)

jump, jump, you influence my every single thought

heavy rotation

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

you're stuck in my head

you can't find your way out

I hum quietly, but when I'm alone I shout

it's easier to sing

like it's a grand gesture

this is true romantic love, that I'm so sure of

sing along to the beat of my red heart

be the adrenaline in my blood

right from the start

(chorus)

I feel you (I feel you)

I touch you (I touch you)

I hold you (I hold you)

in my daydreams as always

dum, dum, even as I fall to sleep

in any situation and in my imagination

I feel you (I feel you)

I touch you (I touch you)

I hold you (I hold you)

this emotion belongs to me

ding, ding, it hits my ears like your sweet voice

heavy rotation

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I can't get enough

I want you all the time

like a favorite song

I know every word and every single rhyme

tomorrow could come and go

like seconds ticking in clockwork

it's all I can do

to keep from requesting you

(chorus)

I want you (I want you)

I need you (I need you)

I love you (I love you)

everything that I do

thump, thump, I want the thrilling beat to carry me

a max high tension

I want you (I want you)

I need you (I need you)

I love you (I love you)

my heart's melody goes

jump, jump, you influence my every single thought

heavy rotation

heavy rotation

Flying Get

(verse 1)

lalalalalalalala

lalalalalalalala

lalalalalalalala

lalalalalalalala

whoo!

you washed up from the ocean onto the sunny shore

I fell in love with a man right there on the beach

you started telling me what to do now I'm not sure

you're always right, now I'm sweating like it's midsummer

you and me, and all of our island cosmic energy

I love a man who's always right

our pride only gets in the way

I'm trying to tear you down while building you up

(chorus)

flying get, oh, right now I am reaching for the grab

I'm heading for the very top peak, if you're coming then come on

flying get, oh, I'm strong even though I'm a lady

if you don't give me those lips, I'll steal them all for me

you can't beat me to the punch (you can't beat me to the punch)

I always get my way (I always get my way)

I may be cute, I may be pretty, but I am the man right now

flying get, oh, you're in my way and I'm in a hurry

your heart will be mine soon so bow down now

beg for mercy before my feet

love flying grab

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I'm a planner, so I'm always one step ahead

stealing your heart in my yellow polka-dot bikini (wow!)

you boldly invite and welcome me into your bed

I've left you in mystery with all the passion that I've said

I like a challenge and simply being the best

that's just me, and you need to be fixed

I'll wear the pants and you'll see me as a golden goddess

until then our fire and oil can't be mixed

(chorus)

flying get, oh, why are you still trying to get your way?

can't you see it's already over, and I've already won?

flying get, oh, I'm the queen and you're just a prince

it's okay to shoot your shot, but you'll probably miss

truly I love you so (truly I love you so)

but I want to be number one (but I want to be number one)

really, usually, usually I give but this time I will take

flying get, oh, I won't lose this or any round

you and I will be the talk of the town

the best couple around

love flying grab

Fall-In-Love Fortune Cookie

(verse 1)

I wonder if you really like me

but I'm too cowardly

down on my knees praying

that we are meant to be

if only I could gaze into the shiny future to see

yeah! yeah! yeah!

I'd tap my heels in ruby slippers, I'd crinkle my nose

will my romantic wish come true?

God only knows

I need good advice, and I need it really fast

yeah! yeah! yeah!

there's a disco in my heart by the sound of the music

oh wait, it's just beating so loud

it's a question, and the answer, I gotta know it

I'll write a poem over this heartfelt rhythm

I think you're so cute, and so charismatic

come on, come on, come on, come on, baby!

won't you please notice me, oh?!

(chorus)

fall-in-love by a fortune cookie

I'll crack it open and stay hoping

for a good future

hey! hey! hey!

a love I can't possibly know

makes me feel so unsure

my heart wants a fortune cookie

it's impossible, but I'll have to keep trying

hey! hey! hey!

hey! hey! hey!

life is full of little twists and big surprises

you never know when true love arises

I like you, I want you, I don't want to feel so blue

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

if you give me a chance

you won't be disappointed

our hearts are made of glass

and heartbreak can't be avoided

I'll be extra careful

so we won't be in peril

yeah! yeah! yeah!

say, doesn't this make you feel like dancing in the streets?

you never know what fate you will ever meet?

what if you find your only one on the next page?

you'll never know if your heart's in a cage

you're my number one

and before this song's done

please, please, please, oh baby

you'll look only at me

(chorus)

fall-in-love by a fortune cookie

take a big chance

and take an opportunity to advance

hey! hey! hey!

I've used all three

wishes for God to bring you to me

there's tears on my fortune cookie

it's salty mixed with a negative sweet

hey! hey! hey!

hey! hey! hey!

the world keeps spinning all because of love

we're showered with it as its sent down from above

tomorrow for sure, today I'll secure a date for sure

(end chorus)

(bridge)

come on, come on, come on, come on, baby!

won't you please notice me, oh?!

(chorus)

fall-in-love by a fortune cookie

I'll crack it open and stay hoping

for a good future

hey! hey! hey!

a love I can't possibly know

makes me feel so unsure

my heart wants a fortune cookie

it's impossible, but I'll have to keep trying

hey! hey! hey!

hey! hey! hey!

life is full of little twists and big surprises

you never know when true love arises

I like you, I want you, I don't want to feel so blue

(end chorus)

Gingham Check

(verse 1)

I like you, but I'm afraid to tell

out of excuses, I'm just not feeling well

my friends say you like me so much though

I got on my bike and pedaled all the way to your house

my mind racing and filling up with doubts

you had just arrived

from your part-time job

I daydream in the pattern of the curtains

(chorus)

gingham check, you like me, I like you

your ripped shirt sleeves look mannish on your arms

I always steer my heart away from harm

but right now I'm putting it all on the line

gingham check, love only grew, my face is red

blue, white, blue, intersecting little threads

my feelings overlap

I nervously bite my lip

is it a no or a yes?

gingham check

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

plunged into a future wearing white

and I borrowed something blue

a shock comes and goes but what's new?

when we exchange our marriage vows on that day

will we think about obstacles that got in our way?

a pattern that's happy

a husband with a wife to carry

we're tied back to back for life

(chorus)

gingham check, summer out rules the spring

diamond, silver, platinum, a hand and a ring

I will love you forever and always

no matter what you do and anywhere you go

gingham check, love all season long

yes, no, yes a question asked and answered wrong

it's all okay

you ask and I obey

next summer will be the best

gingham check

(end chorus)

(bridge)

what would you say if I said I like you though?

all the things I said would still be unrequited

it contrasts like light and shadow

(chorus)

gingham check, you like me, I like you

your ripped shirt sleeves look mannish on your arms

I always steer my heart away from harm

but right now I'm putting it all on the line

gingham check, love only grew, my face is red

blue, white, blue, intersecting little threads

my feelings overlap

I nervously bite my lip

is it a no or a yes?

gingham check

(end chorus)

Beautiful Lightning

(chorus)

what I did for the sake of what's meant to be

what you did all for the sake of me

let it be as loud as the thunder

clouds gray and cupid becomes a hunter

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

it could be sunny like the summer

it could be cold like a long winter

it's the heat of my heart that keeps you warm

but your stare is as cold as shaved ice

like running through a tropical jungle

you're rich and I'm always frugal

you stole my breath and I pant

I can't tell if you came or went

the sea god roars, the hawk's wings soars

there's a downpour moving in

gaze into the eyes, the perfect storm

is it the beginning or end

for you and I?

(chorus)

beautiful lightning striking at our feet

you're keeping me awake and I can't sleep

the thunder claps and I start to run

our war game has only begun

beautiful lightning striking at our feet

you on the throne, taking my seat

it's just so complicating

these passionate mixed feelings

you, me, and the storming

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

he carries my pride like a torch

burning towns and unearthing a scorch

we met at that same place at a certain time

against all reason and rhyme

my soul's never been the same

you changed the rules when I made the game

I aimed an arrow and the bow

now what are you to do?

let the rain fall, on this good morning

it washes away all our sin

I stand tall, your castle's crumbling

which one of us will win?

I think I will

(chorus)

eternity's calling, lightning's striking

wind is blowing strong and petals are falling

will we finally embrace

or will we take the chance?

you knew I was soft all along

eternity's calling, lightning's striking

if I am the queen, then you are the king

the same song and dance all day

what's the use of fighting

when we're just in each other's way?

(end chorus)

(bridge)

you threw away your sword

I laid down my shield

if nothing, you're a man of your word

brick by brick, it's love that we build

your lips on mine are so divine

you and I

(chorus)

beautiful lightning striking at our feet

you're keeping me awake and I can't sleep

the thunder claps and I start to run

our war game has only begun

beautiful lightning striking at our feet

you on the throne, taking my seat

it's just so complicating

these passionate mixed feelings

you, me, and the storming

Excuses Maybe

(verse 1)

when I made up my mind finally (when I made up my mind finally)

I pedaled my bike quickly (I pedaled my bike quickly)

I couldn't get to you fast or brisk enough

I was nervous and out of breath

in a humid, mid-summer July

I'm sorry I'm indecisive

you confessed and my decision

was to leave you hanging

until I decided I couldn't go on living

I know we're more than just friends

but love isn't the end

right now, I'm coming to see you, you're leaving

you're out of view, waving

(chorus)

maybe, maybe

it's not outside the realm of possibility

the bright blue sky above

the white clouds and the wind in my hair as I rush

maybe, maybe

it could be just like a romance movie

today our love could be born

if I can quit silly games before you're gone

it's just excuses maybe

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

when I got to your green yard (when I got to your green yard)

knocking on your door was hard (knocking on your door was hard)

this familiar place was scary, it was easier when it was casual you and plain me

where do we go from here? (where do we go from here?)

the words are stuck and disappear (the words are stuck and disappear)

you look surprised to see me, I tell you it's love and I guarantee

I've never seen a man

jump for such joy

your heart was in your chest

now it's in your mouth

I'm your girl and you're my boy

(chorus)

maybe, maybe

if I could just gain the courage and clarity

probably, we wouldn't be so nervous

and could be nothing but honest

maybe, maybe

if we could be more grown up

maturity and true love wouldn't get stuck

it'd be more like a romantic comedy

but it's excuses maybe

(end chorus)

(bridge)

what took you so long to say you liked me?

you know I'm not good at these types of things

what took me so long to say you're where I want to be?

my charm point is that I'm so naive

I like you

I like you, I like you

no matter what you do

I'll always really, really like you

(chorus)

maybe, maybe

if I could just gain the courage and clarity

probably, we wouldn't be so nervous

and could be nothing but honest

maybe, maybe

if we could be more grown up

maturity and true love wouldn't get stuck

it'd be more like a romantic comedy

but it's excuses maybe

(end chorus)

Ponytail & Scrunchie

(verse 1)

tear the page off the calendar, hurry up

shirt sleeves need to be rolled up

the noon sun hangs directly above in the blue sky

you're not escaping this heat

no matter how hard you try

the beautiful blue sea

and a new pink bikini

that's when you say that

you like my hair tied up

(chorus)

ponytail and a scrunchie

blowing in the ocean air

I give chase to you, I give chase to you

into the deep blue

ponytail, splashing in the waves

a brand new me and you

your perfect smile, and my summer wiles

have just begun

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

tonight, let's have a beach bonfire

so my dreams will smell of white sand

lala, never end the days of lounging

you in my arms is what I'm imagining 

it's getting pretty hot

let's go take a splash

I'm giving you all I got

this would be my only wish

(chorus)

ponytail, set out on the sand

I thought I look cute

your delightful way, your delightful way

of teasing keeps my heart at bay

ponytail, say it isn't so

it's not unrequited

even if it's so, we can still go

wherever as friends, darling

(end chorus)

(bridge)

a cute and precious

long dark haired girl

thinks that you are her whole world

but you don't like to commit

when are you ever going to quit?

from the top, tell me what's up

are you just weak?

(chorus)

ponytail and a scrunchie

blowing in the ocean air

I give chase to you, I give chase to you

into the deep blue

ponytail, splashing in the waves

a brand new me and you

your perfect smile, and my summer wiles

have just begun

Everyday, Headband

(verse 1)

the sun is finally up

fruit in my cup

I can't wait to get to the dazzle that is you

I feel like a sailor out at sea

but I'm just in a t-shirt

and this land is my grand ocean

the air of the harbor

my new seashell sandals

I am sure, I assure

this will be a date to remember

as the white wind blows

you push your hair back

you're just so cool

I wish summer would hurry

so we can spend our days together

without a worry

in my heart I know

I'm more like a friend

but that doesn't mean

that this is the end

I'll knock you out dead

in my best outfit

I have to be brave

this is it

(chorus)

my headband fell down

so embarrassing

but you found it cute and endearing

this is it, I just know

you're falling in love

I scream to the sky

thank you from up above

this June will be the best time of my life

my headband I picked

is so refreshing

I hope you like it, it has a fruit motif

on this date, I'm wondering what if

I'll go along with whatever this is

some more, give me attention some more

everyday

every, every, everyday

every, everyday headband on, girl

every, every, everyday

every, everyday wow!

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

soon the sun will go down

but we're still out on the town

I don't want to go home yet

if you want to hang around

put your arm around me

be possessive if you please

I've wanted this every summer

it's the only thing

that gets me through the winter

is it perhaps that

there's someone else?

is that why you are aloof?

if you are in fact single

let me give you some proof

(chorus)

my headband fell down

so embarrassing

I'm not giving up on this love circus

even if he was a little promiscuous

he doesn't know

I'm so desirous 

the temperature is up and it won't go down

my headband I picked

is so refreshing

it's perfect for this July season

I made a wish to get us through August

this truth goes down with a hard swish

it can't be

I think you like me

(end chorus)

(bridge)

if I said I like that

would you keep playing hard to get?

if I said I like that

would we still be locked in combat?

if I said I like that

would you hear the words that I speak

but your attitude makes me so weak

I forget the day of the week

(chorus)

everyday

every, every, everyday

every, everyday headband on, girl

everyday

every, every, everyday

every, everyday headband on, girl

(end chorus)

Sayonara Crawl

(chorus)

sayonara crawl

it's the season of falling in love

(it's what I dream of)

you and your confidence

makes me a little weak in the knees

sayonara crawl

there's too much beach and not enough me

like a crab I have to shy away

into the beginning of summer sky

whoo! whoo!

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

if I knew you were going to be here

I maybe probably wouldn't have come

but I wanted to see the orange of the sunset

at the aquarium, I thought I saw you on a date

I know it's just a little late

but can you not like her?

my beach towel is covered in sand

I'm like a mermaid stranded on dry land

I feel so plain, you'll never love me

but in this endless game, I'm playing for keeps

(chorus)

unforgiving crawl

I go away in shame

(it's just not the same)

I always imagined you'd be mine in my fantasies

unforgiving crawl

it's my little secret I intend to keep

carry me away ocean drifts

to a private island just for me

I think I'm so lonely

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

that guy doesn't even know that I exist

if I think he's looking at me, I exit

freedom of this embarrassment

would be like releasing a prisoner from the crypt

romance isn't easy, it's so hard

do boys and girls really coexist?

I'm winter in that regard

you're the summer that always shines

(chorus)

sayonara crawl

it's the season of falling in love

(it's what I dream of)

you and your confidence

makes me a little weak in the knees

sayonara crawl

there's too much beach and not enough me

like a crab I have to shy away

into the beginning of summer sky

whoo! whoo!

(end chorus)

(bridge)

unforgiving crawl

maybe next summer

I'll be more lucky

I won't lose to her

he'll be my guy

and I'll be his lady

(chorus)

unforgiving crawl

it's my little secret I intend to keep

carry me away ocean drifts

to a private island just for me

I think I'm so lonely

a guy for a lady

why's it so hard for me?

I'm just so shy

whoo! whoo!

Heart’s Got A Virus

(verse 1)

the first time I laid eyes on those shoulders

the second time you flashed me that brilliant smile

the third time you left me in smolders

I called the doctor

 

doc, it’s serious, can you prescribe a pill?

what do you mean one can’t be love sick at will?

the symptoms will last until?

give it to me straight, I need the facts

 

about that, I don’t think that he likes me

I like more than his scenery

but he doesn’t know I exist

I don’t want to worry

I don’t want to rush

he’ll find somebody else

and this will all just be a crush

 

(chorus)

heart’s got a virus and there is no cure

the doctors are perplexed and no one is sure

how long it will last or how long symptoms will persist

you just had to go and give this to me

you just had to be as wonderful as you can be

the only treatment is injection of your affection, my baby

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

he’s just as nice as he was the first time

he always thinks once and then a second time

he wants to be just friends, we’ve met for a third time

 

I think I’m about to commit a crime

passion, juice, and lawyers will cost me a pretty dime

the judge will throw the book and gavel at me this time

 

my tears fall, I’m in such deep pain

I want to make a move

but I’m afraid it will all be in vain

love songs make the flare ups worse

I’m not like this by choice

but have you heard the sound of his voice?

 

(chorus)

heart’s got a virus and there’s no cure yet

my chest is heavy and my eyes are wet

he doesn’t care about my condition

I’ve been like this for weeks

so many dates, he’s had a hot streak

I need to be brave and take action

(end chorus)

 

(bridge)

I’ll never forgive the way he behaves

but when he looks at me

all I can do is cave

maybe in the end, he wants me to be his girlfriend

 

(chorus)

heart’s got a virus and there is no cure

the doctors are perplexed and no one is sure

how long it will last or how long symptoms will persist

you just had to go and give this to me

you just had to be as wonderful as you can be

the only treatment is injection of your affection, my baby

the only treatment is injection of your affection, my baby

(end chorus)

Swimming in a Love Song

(verse 1)

not one thing can reach these depths

light can't penetrate this dark

I'm drowning in this love

but I can't survive with no air

I'll be sleeping with the fishes

this well's running out of wishes

you've got me completely fooled

I'm drifting in the ocean's waves

but would it be okay

if you'd let me see the sky?

exchange my gills for a pair of white wings

I'll always be your beautiful mermaid

but that's not the reason I was made

(chorus)

I'm swimming in a love song for you, ah

it feels like I'm alone even when you're by my side

down on the sapphire ocean floor, it's always night

you and me and we are running on thin ice

I'm madly in love, but there's only so long I can play nice

if you can't tell by my face

I'm swimming towards the surface

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

you're the captain of this ship

you've got plenty of storms to navigate

my name's on a hurricane

and it's breaking your garden gate

I want to show you I'm more than just a pretty face

I can tear a man down or put him in outer space

it's going to take a miracle

to survive tropical storms at sea

(chorus)

I'm swimming in scorned words of love

you say one thing but mean another

it's like you're an enemy, when you're my lover

I'm in bed with a complete stranger

who dilutes instead of clears my confusion

it's like you've made it your mission

to completely drown me

(end chorus)

(bridge)

a thorny, a stormy sea that pours torrents from the sky

there's ocean above, waves below crashing into your hurt body

not anymore, close all the doors, I'm a blue sea rose

that will rise and bring the sand with her

you made it to the triangle of Bermuda

a woman will sink another

(chorus)

I'm swimming in a love song for you, ah

it feels like I'm alone even when you're by my side

down on the sapphire ocean floor, it's always night

you and me and we are running on thin ice

I'm madly in love, but there's only so long I can play nice

if you can't tell by my face

I'm swimming towards the surface

(end chorus)

Barefoot ed Summer

(verse 1)

you are wrong, it's summer here all year long

when I'm with you I feel so warm like the sun

a love like this will never be done

I'll always be by your side

whether we're inside or outside

I can't tell if it was planned or a miracle

there's only one of you in this world

and you are like angel sent to me straight from the sky above

 you know

orange sunsets and creamsicles

sleeveless shirts and arm muscles

the top down in your Jeep

you kiss me, I get embarrassed, and crumple up my one piece

as soon as the sun comes up

there's this heat that radiates out from me

I jump in the shower and get ready in a hurry

throw my sandals on, I meet you in an hour

(chorus)

barefooted let's run into the big blue ocean all summer

I don't care where we are as long as we are together

hey, can I tell you a secret?

but you got to keep it

I lean in to whisper and steal a kiss on your cheek

this has been the end to a perfect week

I think you gave me love potion

while we were on vacation

turn on the AC

I'm tired and sleepy

let's curl up together

and sleep under the palm trees like lovers

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

a secret getaway

my heart detonates

all boys and all girls

need handsome boyfriends and cute girlfriends

let's walk along the white sand

with fruity drinks from the bar in our hand

right now all that I'm thinking

this is paradise I'm witnessing

(chorus)

I forgot my shoes I guess I'm going barefooted

an adventure with you is just what I needed

hey, what do you got planned?

these flames you fanned

have me like a beach bonfire

let's splash around in the cool water

go diving, while handholding, and see the sea turtles

look at stars at night

you're so outta sight

I must be the dark

because you are my sunlight

(end chorus)

(bridge)

you are wrong, it's summer here all year long

when I'm with you I feel so warm like the sun

this feels like our private spot

a van, a lagoon, and my long hair you got wet

no matter where the summer takes us

either Panama or outer space

I'll follow my man

when you makes a plan

I know

(chorus)

barefooted let's run into the big blue ocean all summer

I don't care where we are as long as we are together

hey, can I tell you a secret?

but you got to keep it

I lean in to whisper and steal a kiss on your cheek

this has been the end to a perfect week

I think you gave me love potion

while we were on vacation

turn on the AC

I'm tired and sleepy

let's curl up together

and sleep under the palm trees like lovers

(end chorus)

Mirage

(verse 1)

this heat wave has definitely been a hot one

I'm ready for summer to be done

I shouldn't be like that

where will we go today, what will we do?

we're just laying on the porch amongst the mosquitos

is that an oasis I see up the road just ahead?

or my mind playing tricks on me again?

I just want to watch fireworks together

and celebrate our independence

and whatever else summer sends us

(chorus)

mirage, you can't see it until it fades away up close

we have nothing left to lose

let's follow it anyway

the closer we get, the farther away we seem to be

I don't care even if it's hot

I'll follow you any time, anywhere

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

dive into the sapphire spring of water

you're sunburned and I'm just burned out

we need to cool off we're too heated

keep the romance on the stove though

I like to enjoy it warm

we tell each other ghost stories

while we're out camping

I hope you don't mind if I sleep closer to you

when we ride in your truck

the windows are down and the music is turned up

we're just enjoying our youth, right?

(chorus)

mirage, the palace I saw turned out to be sandcastle

our spirits are high, can you guess the song I whistle?

there's nothing on the TV, we may as well watch the sunset

my ice cream melted in my hand, you try to lick it off, so lovely

(end chorus)

(bridge)

you're catching my butterflies

falling asleep under the shade tree

I steal glances, but pretend the sun is in my eyes

ice cream of strawberries and peach

while going for a walk on the beach

matching pastel shirts and outdoor concerts

(chorus)

mirage, you can't see it until it fades away up close

we have nothing left to lose

let's follow it anyway

the closer we get, the farther away we seem to be

I don't care even if it's hot

I'll follow you any time, anywhere

(end chorus)

Horse of Revolution

(verse 1)

in your heart I'm Leonardo da Vinci

I spark the fire of a renaissance that never stopped

my love is an invention that keeps providing

and brought you into a new age

with me on your side I'll provide enlightenment

I paint you, I draw you, I pass judgement

I'm leading the charge

from black magic to science

look at the work of art I made you

(chorus)

horse of revolution leading the charge

it never stops it can only barge its way through

I'm the rider, I am the inventor

I am the painter and I am the master

freedom in my right hand

knowledge in my left and

you in my heart, history restarts

and we are happy, yes, finally

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

what's hidden behind my Mona Lisa smile?

are you in the know of my secret code?

I've got so many ideas

you probably think they're all brilliant

at our first supper, that won't be the last

because our love has shown resilience

you be the theorist, and I'll be the architect

I will be the engineer and you adhere

out of this middle age

with bloodshed and endless rage

into a romance between me and you

(chorus)

horse of revolution leading the charge

it never stops it can only barge its way through

our love's advanced for our time

there's no punishment to our crime

I've laid down my pride and picked up my passion

with your endless support

I figured out a way to walk on the ocean

I'll be the rocky shores of Italy

you be the countryside of France

say you want to marry

and I will go on the offense

(end chorus)

(bridge)

what a mind, be the priest in my chapel

I only talk to you like this

I don't understand other people

I know a wish doesn't exist

but when it comes to you, I want double

horse of revolution leading the charge

it never stops it can only barge its way through

our love's advanced for our time

there's no punishment to our crime

(chorus)

horse of revolution leading the charge

it never stops it can only barge its way through

I'm the rider, I am the inventor

I am the painter and I am the master

freedom in my right hand

knowledge in my left and

you in my heart, history restarts

and we are happy, yes, finally

(end chorus)

Someone Who Is On Your Side

(verse 1)

I pray at night that you never feel lonely

I keep a close eye on you from afar during daylight

with all of my unimpressive power

it's just in my nature to help

when the clock strikes that hour

you leave immediately with long-stride steps

you stay off to yourself

I wonder if you even have a single friend

or sense of worth

the cosmos put us in the same location at the same time

so that I cannot be

(chorus)

someone who is on your side

someone who won't leave you during the rough ride

even now I think about

how you stay by yourself on Saturdays

you think this princess just sees a pauper

but she sees someone who could be her lover

and take care of each other

for all of their todays together

I'll be your champion

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the sunset blazes the people down on the street

you like to meet with your thoughts

on this rooftop

your mother must be worried

you're getting older and you're not married

all these things that I could fix

if you'd just wish

you probably don't even know my name

and I force traits upon you like a game

but don't worry, I'm actually not domineering

I'm just a hopeless romantic

(chorus)

someone who is on your side

someone who won't leave you during the rough ride

even now I think about

how you stay by yourself on Saturdays

you think this princess just sees a pauper

but she sees someone who could be her lover

and take care of each other

for all of their todays together

I'll be your champion

(end chorus)

(bridge)

it's like I'm your secret super hero

who never asks anything in return

or for a favor

if the time comes

that's right I'll let him know I like him

but that's only then

(chorus)

someone who is on your side

someone who won't leave you during the rough ride

even now I think about

how you stay by yourself on Saturdays

you think this princess just sees a pauper

but she sees someone who could be her lover

and take care of each other

for all of their todays together

I'll be your champion

(end chorus)

Body to Body

(verse 1)

grab a racket and hit the court

 cuz I'm having a tennis match with myself

he's married and off limits, but is it really such a stretch?

I'm trying to justify every serve in my mind

but I'm always running out of time

he's fine, my type, and fast

I don't know how long this good girl can last

I think he's the man that can make me a woman

(so tonight)

he's an ace and it's deuce

his serve, but I'm gonna smash, baby

(chorus)

I love you

I need your love

body to body

dirty little secrets and two pro sneaks

what they don't see, they don't gotta know

I want you

so let me feel

body to body

words aren't needed, now just touch me

I want you

hold me in your arms

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

you could feel the tension on the net

the chemistry was off the set

he likes how I'm so radical

and I think he's totally tubular

he's just the right man to make me woman

(so tonight)

I think I'm about to tiebreak

and that will be the game, baby

(chorus)

I love you

I need your love

body to body

if it's not wrong because it's right

who needs that? I don't want it

I want you

so let me feel

body to body

words aren't needed just touch me

just show me

something in your eyes

(end chorus)

(chorus)

I love you

I need your love

body to body

dirty little secrets and two pro sneaks

what they don't see, they don't gotta know

I want you

so let me feel

body to body

words aren't needed, now just touch me

I want you

hold me in your arms

I love you

I need your love

body to body

if it's not wrong because it's right

who needs that? I don't want it

I want you

so let me feel

body to body

words aren't needed just touch me

just show me

something in your eyes

(end chorus)

Tropical Fish

(verse 1)

stop, just hearing your voice is more than enough for me

now stop, it makes me so happy that I want to be your bride

touch me, touch me make me like water

be cool to the touch and calm like the sea

dazzle, shine you're glowing

I want you to keep me from being lonely

(chorus)

all the way, all the way

you want to go swimming

deep in my ocean, lost in my tides

it's not a joke, I want to be your mermaid

lonely, you are, you are my sweetie

you are, you are dreaming

of swimming with tropical fish

stop, stop

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

love, is mystic like the rain forest

we're in the heart of the jungle

love me, an unstoppable force like a storm

once you're in, you can't find your way out

shaking, shivering huddle up to me

I'll be the fire that keeps you warm

tighter, harder don't lose your grip

I know you mean me no harm

(chorus)

all the way, all the way

we're on a vacation escape

out of the amazon, into the ocean

you and me always

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I can't, hey

my darling, your cool keeps me from the lonely

why's that? why's that?

how is it that

you invade all my thoughts?

lonely, you are, you are my sweetie

you are, you are dreaming

of swimming with tropical fish

stop, stop

(chorus)

all the way, all the way

you want to go swimming

deep in my ocean, lost in my tides

it's not a joke, I want to be your mermaid

all the way, all the way

we're on a vacation escape

out of the amazon, into the ocean

you and me always

(end chorus)

Lonely Night

(verse 1)

stole one of your shirts

and it's a little big

not to be rude

but I'm coming for your hoodie next

put me in the pocket of your parachute pants

so you won't forget me

lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night

moonlight dinner, wine, and a dozen roses

I even got out my special dress

a girl always looks good in black and Gucci

lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night

(chorus)

you let me down

you cancelled our date

and dimmed the lights

but I still love you so

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I might as well run a bubble bath

before the jealousy eats away at me

baby, when you get home

can you wake me up?

lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night

(bridge)

I was going to let you get lucky

you was going to score a goal

let you tear me up into many pieces

at the finish line, take a photograph

you want me at my tip top best

lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night

(chorus)

you let me down

you're just a man

why do you demand change?

but I still love you so

ha

(end chorus)

I'm In Love

(verse 1)

through the window

he's just watching sports at the bar

talking about how he used to play ball

I think he still does

twilight, that special time of day

where I feel peak sentimental

we bonded over March Madness

now he's my one and only

you're the only one I want to love

but I strike words like matches

I used to watch my world burn

until you became my only concern

(chorus)

I'm in love, there's all this push and shove lately

with your love, I've never been this happy

I'm in love, I forgot about the last few months

with my love, I'll support you and bear the brunt

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

passion is your hand on my thigh

in your sports car, I'm so high I'm like a firework

you know you're always good news

the words I want to read every morning

a hot afternoon and an outdoor bed

drifting away like this is everything to me

(chorus)

I'm in love, tucked in the corner of my heart away

with your love, I overcame it all anyway

I'm in love, I never knew love could be a miracle

with my love, you're not opposed to the typical

(end chorus)

(chorus)

I'm in love, there's all this push and shove lately

with your love, I've never been this happy

I'm in love, I forgot about the last few months

with my love, I'll support you and bear the brunt

I'm in love with your love, I'm in love

with my love, I'm in love, I do do do

I'm in love with your love, I'm in love

with my love, I'm in love, I do do do

I'm in love

(end chorus)

Narcissist

(verse 1)

when I was a child I knew no better

I thought the score was always supposed to be settled

as an adult, I now trust nobody

not even the players on my own home team

through the window I see what I wanted

it's right out of my reach

I've fantasized but in the end only wished

and all you've ever done is be a leech

(chorus)

narcissist, you take and take without ever giving anything in return

all that you do

reeks of the cologne that you spray all over everything before you make a run

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I've got so much baggage I can't board the plane

the damage that was caused left deep bleeding pain

it rang through time so hard I wear my sunglasses at night

the dark is all that's in my sight

I wonder if I'll truly ever be happy

or if I'll only wear the mask you gave me

in the name of being selfless

it was you who called me selfish

(chorus)

narcissist, you take and take without ever giving anything in return

all that you do

is break fragile hearts all day, if it's not your God forsaken way then it's the highway

(end chorus)

(bridge)

a conman masquerading as a saint dressed in white

sayonara to a person who's always right

(chorus)

narcissist, you take and take without ever giving anything in return

all that you do

reeks of the cologne that you spray all over everything before you make a run

narcissist, you take and take without ever giving anything in return

all that you do

is break fragile hearts all day, if it's not your God forsaken way then it's the highway

you reek of the cologne that you spray all over everything now you're lonely

if it's not your God forsaken way then it's the highway

narcissist, you take and take without ever giving anything in return

all that you do

reeks of the cologne that you spray all over everything before you make a run

all that you do

is break fragile hearts all day, if it's not your God forsaken way then it's the highway

(end chorus)

SUMMER SUSPICION

(verse 1)

if I was to look from a guy's dim point of view

it'd look like what it is

it's a fact not a guess

highway and a gust of wind off the coast

I'm afraid to call it like I see it

why is that so? what do I know?

I'll keep driving

(chorus)

I can't say in this hot heat

you were my girl, but you're just a cheat

is it tears or is it sweat?

I crash, my cheeks are wet

there's jealousy to be

but it's not from me

I can't say I'm not at fault

there were clues and you were shady

why didn't we just break up?

why did you let me find out?

my summer time love suspicion

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

ta-dah, I wanted to surprise you

but you shocked me

the flowers I bought, the wine I brought

I threw them away and drank it anyway

(chorus)

I can't say in this hot heat

you were my girl, but you're just a cheat

is it tears or is it sweat?

I crash, my cheeks are wet

there's jealousy brewed

and it's all from you

you can't say your pride's not cracked

a detective and an alibi unchecked

why didn't we stop being competitive?

when did love become repetitive?

you point at me and four fingers point back

surely he has what I lack

tell me why, tell me why

(end chorus)

(chorus)

I can't say in this hot heat

you were my girl, but you're just a cheat

is it tears or is it sweat?

I crash, my cheeks are wet

a detective and an alibi unchecked

(end chorus)

Lonely Sunset

(verse 1)

this summer melted me all over the pavement

I say out loud that I'm ready to be stepped in

screw this backwards job, and most certainly screw this place

I'd be out for blood if I wasn't so defeated

the window into my tender soul broke

the orange of the day's end dyed my mood

everything bad became good

but even still, all this while

I've been all by quiet myself

(chorus)

lonely sunset, blue tears are so scary

lonely sunset, I reach out but there's nobody

sayonara, get out my way

we go back and forth all day

you're "gag me with a spoon" gnarly

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

you would leave me splattered on the hood of your Pontiac

racing cars, I said I didn't think you're all that

all of my friends became my enemies

they're deadly, but so am I

(chorus)

lonely sunset, I won't even say I'm sorry

lonely sunset, the orange fades into the dark sea

sayonara, but it's not on me

it unlocked without the key

pandora's box you're opening

(end chorus)

(chorus)

lonely sunset, blue tears are so scary

lonely sunset, I reach out but there's nobody

lonely sunset, I won't even say I'm sorry

lonely sunset, the orange fades into the dark sea

(end chorus)

ASPHALT LADY

(verse 1)

static on my end of the telephone

in shock of what just happened

I guess you're not my girlfriend

and I'm not your boyfriend anymore

did you take him back to your place?

did you kill my heart with a pierce?

I probably should stay on track

I don't need answers to these questions

those sweet words you said

with a wink

were like roses with thorns

pretty but lies

(chorus)

yeah, you are just an asphalt lady

rough, tough, terrible news, and gritty too

yeah, I like them bad all the way down to the bone

but with your heart of stone

caution told me to stay away

I played anyway

is it bad I like the hurt?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I guess there's pain in pleasure

you're good with an eraser

any trace of me was gone by the next day

I used to like that nothing got in your way

it's suspicious how you always had a plot

it was cool to me

you had to look over your shoulder a lot

now I see why

(chorus)

yeah, you are just an asphalt lady

you're a thief that steals love in the night

yeah, you'll claim to be an asphalt lady

you'll find pride in your title

you want to be big but you're so little

I lick my lips in anticipation

make me high

(end chorus)

(chorus)

yeah, you are just an asphalt lady

rough, tough, terrible news, and gritty too

yeah, I like them bad all the way down to the bone

but with your heart of stone

caution told me to stay away

I lick my lips in anticipation

make me high

(end chorus)

Our Summer Story • Never Ending Summer

(verse 1)

a meteorite lit up our young ocean eyes

the next morning at the marina

we drew a map of the whole island

a woman, a man

and a canvas-topped jeep

in the dense forest, by the blue sea

a barefooted couple

Polaroids of a coconut tree

a paradise in trouble

(chorus)

only you can take me wherever you

and our never ending summer vacation leads

only you, sundresses, and beaches all day

white sand castles and drinks with little umbrellas

building up memories and writing a summer story

just only you

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

basketball courts and walking the lines

firecracker pops and fishing nets

the village people we've come to know

the yellow sun and the fresh wind that blows

when summer ends, we have to leave

we'll always have precious things

away from life, what a relief

whatever the day brings

(chorus)

only you can take me wherever you

and our never ending summer vacation leads

only you, seashells and hammocks on the bay

staying up all night and sleeping away the day

bending down on one knee and lip stealing

just only you

(end chorus)

(bridge)

exchanging ties for t-shirt cozy

sunglasses and seeing you more

a clear summer that's not hazy

(chorus)

only you can take me wherever you

and our never ending summer vacation leads

only you, sundresses, and beaches all day

white sand castles and drinks with little umbrellas

building up memories and writing a summer story

just only you

(end chorus)

Do It! Now

(chorus)

do it now

you just have to look at me

and I'll be for infinity

you're not in this fight alone

you'll always have a place to call home

let's go

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

living life like a runaway leaving their city

I think it's inspiring

so I follow you

I think you just need a hand to hold

I get it, I also fear to grow old

the sound you loved

left newcomers behind

slang was something

you couldn't keep up with

the times are changing

and we're so much older

than the last time we talked about this

if you're hesitating

stop complaining

you're only young once in life

you got one chance

so take a stance

if you want it now

don't complain about money

or lack of time

(chorus)

do it now

however, you've always got a want

got a nice job just to pay rent

but you're tired of your days being the same thing

do it

you just have to look at me

and I'll be for infinity

you're not in this fight alone

you'll always have a place to call home

let's go

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

no one listens to rap

not anymore

electropop walked out that door

never to be seen again

it's lost to the cycle

by the time it's back we'll be old

the image of 2002 is gone, yes

Google Images, green Versace dress

the world changes all the time

it'll never be the same

forevermore

everybody's depressed

but I swear it wasn't like that in spring

everything's already been done

and recycled

we live in interesting times

but we work ourselves to death

we lose wishes to get money

grab your backpack

and head out the door

we don't have to go to school anymore

we were never bullied online

but it hurts all just the same

so put it all on the line

(chorus)

do it now

why would I want to be cool

when I'd just look like a fool

I can still dance, but the kids won't copy my moves

do it

going back to glory days

is something I can do no more

I'll just have to do it now

than do it never

I love it

(end chorus)

(bridge)

do it now

yeah

(chorus)

do it now

however, you've always got a want

got a nice job just to pay rent

but you're tired of your days being the same thing

do it

going back to glory days

is something I can do no more

I'll just have to do it now

than do it never

I love it

Morning Coffee

(chorus)

hey, it's embarrassing

hey, I'm telling you anyway

you're the reason I wake up

the morning coffee in my cup

you and me both

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

yes, I want us to be together

yes, I want your lips to sweeten mine

yes, only you can be my lover

stop, time is going too fast

stop, we're running running out of time

stop, you're leaving soon and I lost my chance

if you were clothes

you'd be my style

I'd always be in fashion

because how I feel for you is real

(chorus)

ahh, be my pick-me-up at night

so I can make it till daylight

what are your feelings for me?

I love you, I love you forever

hey, it's embarrassing

hey, I'm telling you anyway

you're the reason I wake up

the morning coffee in my cup

you and me both

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

no, I want to protect your smile

no, I selfishly want you by my side

no, I'm being for real about this

love, I wish I could do without it

love, it's for sale with a sign in my yard

love, still it's the pastry I crave

I had a dream

the day before you left

before you left I planted

a kiss on your cheek for memories and good luck

(chorus)

ahh, how embarrassing of me

so, we'll never get married

you, me, and my feelings

I love you, I love you forever

hey, it's embarrassing

hey, I'm telling you anyway

you're the reason I wake up

the morning coffee in my cup

you and me both

(end chorus)

ahh, be my pick-me-up at night

HOMETOWN

(verse 1)

it's small and crapped

but I thought we'd be here

maybe plant a future and grow a family tree

it's occupied my every thought

I can't even walk the streets

it hurts too much

when I try to drift off to sleep

I'm afraid I'll dream of you

I can't touch you

you're without me

and this place will never be the same

(chorus)

I cry out, life is just not fair

we were born and raised here

and we grew up there, my my love

I cry out, this will never be my home

not anymore or anywhere

a town without a name

no more

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

we were supposed to be high school sweethearts

and rule this hometown

they wanted what we had

and they wanted to see us fail

we always made jokes

then it happened to us

CDs burned from old mp3s

packed in cardboard boxes

I hope you're having fun

maybe that new wife can be your whole life

leave me behind, I'll be just fine

I want to move out of our hometown

(chorus)

I cry out, did I hold you back?

I just can't figure out

why you'd want to leave

I cry out, and I don't think I'll ever stop

I'm mourning all these memories

and happiness in black

no way

(end chorus)

(bridge)

from the park to the new city hall

from every corner to every wall

there's nothing here but thoughts of you

sha la la la la la la

(chorus)

I cry out, life is just not fair

we were born and raised here

and we grew up there, my my love

I cry out, this will never be my home

not anymore or anywhere

a town without a name

no more

(end chorus)

Wait HOLD ON ME

(chorus)

hold on, hold on me

tonight's the night

my big guy

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

tattoos of American flags

pharmacy receipts in a plastic bag

attitude for days and miles

a cool guy to tease me and give me smiles

emergency tags on your black truck

pull up and pick me up

let me finish my makeup in your review mirror

nowhere to hide

nowhere to go

we're both still young and ready

I don't want to get married

but I would with you

pick it up

put it down

right here on the tailgate

give it to me tonight

don't make me wait

(chorus)

it's romantic, it's dangerous

we could get caught, but we're too flirty

let me leave lipstick on your collar

leave kisses on my cleavage

one more time, I'll be your lady of the evening

I'm selfish and drunk on you, darling

let's be wild from the night till the following evening

it's romantic, it's dangerous

we could get caught, but we're too flirty

let me leave lipstick on your collar

hold it, hold it, hold it

one more time, I'll be your lady of the evening

I'm selfish and drunk on you, darling

wait, wait, wait hold on me tonight

hold on, hold on me

tonight's the night

my big guy

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

can't tell my brother, got a jealous sister

the joys of being an adult

when I thought I'd be in for a world of hurt

he's a heartbreaker

but I'm always up for a challenge

I'm a rulebreaker

he messes with me and I'll come unhinged

another endless night

speeding tickets and bar fights

anti-Norman Rockwell

put him under a spell

get him out of those clothes

the city night scenery

is nice but he's prettier

bring your body, bring your body

I want to shout your name out into the night

and give you a glimpse into my life

I'll give you a view

you've never seen before

from the floor

oh, hold on me

(chorus)

it's dynamic, it's treacherous

we could get caught, but we're too filthy

let me leave lipstick on your collar

leave kisses on my cleavage

one more time, I'll be your lady of the morning after

I'm wasted and drunk on you, darling

let's be wild from the night till the following evening

it's dynamic, it's treacherous

we could get caught, but we're too filthy

let me leave lipstick on your collar

hold it, hold it, hold it

one more time, I'll be your lady of the morning after

I'm wasted and drunk on you, darling

wait, wait, wait hold on me tonight

hold on, hold on me

tonight's the night

my big guy

(end chorus)

(bridge)

oh hold on me

I'm selfish and drunk on you, darling

let's be wild from the night till the following evening

Love on the Dance Site

(verse 1)

fell in love so hard I forgot words

stuttering over my tongue

kissed me so hard I forgot

what I had for lunch

dancing and bumping through the night

that hairstyle is outta sight

get me outta this club

if I challenged you to a dance-off

would you meet me on the floor

and show me your sexy dance, dance?

(chorus)

love has no place

in a club that's all sweat and dance

I wanna forget about the day

love on the dance site

a miniskirt that's too tight

I wore it for you today

be the chocolate that covers my strawberry

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I gotta a sweet tooth

for dancing guys and man candy

I'll be your snack

take a bite or eat it all

I gotta get to know you

pick the place, just choose

you've got me shaken shaken up

so won't you

come chase our youth together?

is this a club or a bar?

I don't even remember

(chorus)

love is a rat race

look up my sleeve, there's my ace

I'm about to play to the beat

my breakdancing knight

love on the dance site

I'm the fruit in your cup

love on the dance site, oh

(end chorus)

(chorus)

love has no place

in a club that's all sweat and dance

I wanna forget about the day

love on the dance site

a miniskirt that's too tight

I wore it for you today

be the chocolate that covers my strawberry

love is a rat race

look up my sleeve, there's my ace

I'm about to play to the beat

my breakdancing knight

love on the dance site

I'm the fruit in your cup

love on the dance site, oh

love on the dance site, oh

Happy Summer Wedding

(verse 1)

congratulations

I think I can finally

be happy for you

thanks for being a love interest

in my past

it's getting late

I just so happened to catch you

you slipped an invite into my purse

I hope she takes care of you

more than I could too

it's June and to be a bride

would be a wild ride

it's so romantic just like you

(chorus)

ahh, it's the season of weddings

ahh, I hope you got that ring ready

ahh, I let you get away

ahh, I'm sorry much to my dismay

a happy summer wedding out of the blue

thank you

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

so much confusion

lost in emotion

I haven't felt in years

suddenly it's like I fell behind

how did you get married so fast?

that's not what you said in the past

what about taking your time?

what about playing the field?

was she the one that changed your mind?

I didn't stay for the reception, I bailed

(chorus)

ahh, pour me a drink to go

ahh, even the open bar blows

ahh, I think I'm just jealous

ahh, I wanted you to be envious

a happy summer wedding for you

I die

(end chorus)

(bridge)

pour me one more

a little stronger too

I caught the bouquet

but I freaked out and set it on fire

I don't think I'll be invited to the next one

wonder why?

ahh, I have to hand it to you

ahh, you really got me too

ahh, this is my appreciation

ahh, this toast is from me to you

I'm sorry, I messed up

(chorus)

ahh, it's the season of weddings

ahh, I hope you got that ring ready

ahh, I let you get away

ahh, I'm sorry much to my dismay

a happy summer wedding out of the blue

happy

(end chorus)

AS FOR ONE DAY

(verse 1)

one more time, I want it to be the same

but then it changed, so suddenly

well, I get it, this really is goodbye

sayonara

ahh, I never could let go

ahh, I guess I'm still obsessing yeah yeah

even if I had told you I love you

you'd still run off on your way

you just want to embarrass me

well, I guess that makes two

(chorus)

as for one day

at this time, I'm the one who's weak

I'll get stronger in the future, you'll see

as for one day

drop the beat, stop the music, dance moves so sleek

you'll be out in the rain, and I'll be at my peak

sayonara to the guy I liked

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

ahh, you were so eager for a way out

ahh, seeing your sky grey removes my doubt yeah yeah

the encounter of a decade

blew up in my face

and even now I can't help but wonder if

isn't that silly of me?

(chorus)

as for one day

hop, skip, jump to the radio's pop

be the solution or get out of my way

as for one day

I love you, I loved you, I did then

that was then and this is now

sayonara to the boy being a man

(end chorus)

(chorus)

as for one day

hop, skip, jump to the radio's pop

be the solution or get out of my way

as for one day

I love you, I loved you, I did then

that was then and this is now

sayonara to the boy being a man

ahh, I never could let go

ahh, I guess I'm still obsessing

(end chorus)
