Chewin' on my raisinettes Thinkin' bout what I want next Thinking maybe I'm addicted Checking out my pay per view All I do is think of you What's wrong baby, with this picture Cause love is just too much work Never shoulda lingered over dessert
* You're the fever of my night The dream I just can't fight Everytime I try - busted You're the shiver up my spine Can't keep my cool in line You catch my eye - busted
Love reigns supreme But never over me That's how I've always operated What's that thing we had Up in your bachelor pad Left me so intoxicated Love is just too much pain Never shoulda gave you my number and name
*Repeat
Don't want somebody to love Just want somebody to like me Don't want somebody too close Just want somebody beside me Don't want somebody too much, nothing complicated Don't want somebody too much, too much, too much
You know it only breaks my heart To see you standing in the dark Alone waiting there for me to come back I'm too afraid to show
If it's coming over you Like it's coming over me I'm crashing like a tidal wave That drags me out to sea I want to be with you If you want to be with me Crashing like a tidal wave I' don't want to be Stranded Stranded Stranded So baby come back to me(Stranded) So baby come back to me(Stranded)
I can only take so much These tears are turning me to rust I know you're waiting there for me to come back I'm too afraid to show
If it's coming over you Like it's coming over me I'm crashing like a tidal wave That drags me out to sea I want to be with you If you want to be with me Crashing like a tidal wave I don't want to be Stranded Stranded Stranded So baby come back to me(Stranded) So baby come back to me(Stranded)
I miss you I nee you Without you I'm Stranded I love you so comeback I'm not afraid to show
Crashing like a tidal wave Drags me out to sea I want to be with you You want to be with me Crashing like a tidal wave I don't want to be Stranded It's coming over you (Stranded) It's coming over you (Stranded)
It's coming over you (Stranded)
So baby come back to me(Stranded) So baby come back to me(Stranded)
You look so confident The way you work the room Like you're heaven sent Everybody checking you Something about it baby Keepin' me amused Hate to admit it but I Kind of like your attitude
Things that you do and the things that you say Gotta be for real if you want me to stay Think that I'll jump if you want me to play Well, you gotta do better than that
Make me Give you everything I've got A reason to let you in my private thoughts Take me To a higher place where I've never been The way that no one else can Make me
I see the wheels are turning You've always been the best You think you're the first You better second guess Before we get to that You gotta go like this Show me I'm on top of Your most wanted list
Things that you do and the things that you say Gotta be for real if you want me to stay Think that I'll jump if you want me to play Well, you gotta do better than that
Make me Give you everything I've got A reason to let you in my private thoughts Take me To a higher place where I've never been The way that no one else can Make me
No easy come No easy go The way to my heart is through my soul I'm giving you The simple fact Think that I'll jump if you want me to play Well, you gotta do better than that
Make me Give you everything I've got A reason to let you in my private thoughts Take me To a higher place where I've never been The way that no one else can Make me
Who he is Who I am how we move I just sit and watch the frenzy I can't catch my breath to stop and see Is this what you meant Is this happy What's going on all around me I just can't work it out exactly It all comes down so abstractly
It's the way of the world of you and me It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might It's the way of the world of you and me Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight It's the way of the world It's the way of the world
What does it mean All the flowers I've received It must be raining botany Spinning and flashing and dashing And narrowly escaping In an accent that I'm sure he's faking But then we just burst out laughing What zone is this we're passing
It's the way of the world of you and me It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might It's the way of the world of you and me Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight It's the way of the world It's the way of the world
I'm thinking to myself Baby with all you all I know is I go somewhere else Lost in the mystery In some other world There's nowhere else I'd rather be
It's the way of the world of you and me It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might It's the way of the world of you and me Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight
The way of the world of you and me Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight It's the way of the world of you and me It's every wish I ever made or ever thought I might It's the way of the world of you and me Baby all I know is I love the way I feel tonight It's the way of the world of you and me
Started seeing trouble in your eyes Followed you around just a little while Didn't want to believe you could do me wrong
Did her lips taste as sweet as mine Did she fall for all your fancy lines
You run around me with another Think that you can do better
You said I was everything [Don't want to see you 'round here no more] But you'd tell me anything [Don't want to see you 'round here no more] Did you think I would take you back [Did you really think I'd take you back] Never take you back Not this time
Now you say you're sorry for what you've done That I will always be the only one Well, you can take your sorry's to someone else
You ran around on me with another Thought that you could do better
[no, no, no, baby, uh, uh, uh] You said I was everything [Don't want to see you 'round here no more] But you'd tell me anything [Don't want to see you 'round here no more] Did you think I would take you back [Did you really think I'd take you back] Never take you back Not this time
I covered you in roses And I fell for your disguise But it doesn't seem so pretty now
[no, no, no, baby, uh, uh, uh] You said I was everything [Don't want to see you 'round here no more] But you'd tell me anything [Don't want to see you 'round here no more] Did you think I would take you back [Did you really think I'd take you back] Never take you back Not this time
Thought my pain could not be penetrated My defenses activated Like a heart that was laminated And completely sealed
But you're just like a beam of freedom Pure whit light in faded jeans I love the way you see me baby The way you make me feel
You, you get through Even with my walls in place Even with my poker face And all those little girl games I play You, you get through And you never let me down Never disappointed With the love you've found You get through
Not in my wildest imagination Did I have this expectation Now I'm having the revelation I am not immune
Cause when you hold me I surrender I am yours Yours forever I love the way you love me baby The things you do, you do
You, you get through Even with my walls in place Even with my poker face And all those little girl games I play You, you get through And you never let me down Never disappointed With the love you've found You get through
From the bottom of the heart of me I feel this love Every single little part of me Is opening up
You, you get through Even with my walls in place Even with my poker face And all those little girl games I play You, you get through And you never let me down Never disappointed With the love you've found You get through
What have we become It seems our hearts have come undone And even when I hold you in my arms you're out of reach I would walk a thousand miles to get to you Ten thousand more to get you back into me
But the more I reach the more you run [I can't get to you] The more I reach the more you run
I feel so far I feel so far away From where you are I feel so far away
Silently pretending We're not alone and nothing's ending Lost in the familiar We've forgotten how to dream I remember a time when you and I believed in forever I want that again
But the more I reach the more you run [I can't get to you] The more I reach the more you run
I feel so far I feel so far away From where you are I feel so far away
Standing on the edge Looking for a bridge Reaching out but I can't get to you Get to you Standing on the edge Looking for a bridge Do everything I do to get to you
Get to you I'm standing on the edge Looking for a bridge I'm reaching out but I can't get to you Get to you
I feel so far I feel so far away From where you are I feel so far away
I feel so far I feel so far away From where you are I feel so far away
I'm standing on the edge Looking for a bridge I'm reaching out but I can't get to you Get to you
A crowded room in the dead of night Bodies crash in the sound and sight I see your face break through in a flash of a light With eyes that seem to read my mind I feel we've touched in another time And suddenly my heart is coming alive
And I feel you calling me All night Pulling me closer Wanna give you all of me Oh I I think I'm going over Over the edge
The night unfolds like a lover's arms But we can't talk Don't know where to start We breathe as one but we're two worlds apart
So let's not question right or wrong Wanna move with you 'til the night is gone And suddenly this is where we belong
And I feel you calling me All night Pulling me closer
Wanna give you all of me Oh I I think I'm going over Over the edge
If I'm going over baby come with me All the way over, baby
And I feel you calling me All night Pulling me closer Wanna give you all of me Oh I I think I'm going over Over the edge
I talk to you out loud Driving south on Kings road I've got you in my coat here I find new ways to want you But I can't reach you So I head downtown
It's forever later You're so far away As night becomes day I remember the way you held me Baby won't you
Tell me when so I keep believing Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling Tell me again when you'll be mine When you'll be mine Tell me when
Flying standby On the redeye when you saw me You left and I heard voices in my head A happy accident that had to happen A car crash in my bed
It's forever later You're so far away As night becomes day I remember the way you held me Baby won't you
Tell me when so I keep believing Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling Tell me again when you'll be mine When you'll be mine Tell me when
It's forever later You're so far away I remember the way you held me, baby
Tell me when so I keep believing Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling Tell me again when you'll be mine When you'll be mine Tell me when
Don't know what you intended Am I just part of your game Boy, you started a fire I can't identify it You're only fanning the flame It's the rule of desire
Don't keep me waiting here for your love Come and show me what you're made of
Stay the night And I'll decide If it's right Cause I won't wait forever baby Stay the night Come inside Show me why I Should let you Stay the night
Use your imagination Don't treat me like the rest Show me you'll do it better This kind of situation Requires only the best Boy, it's now or never
I'm just waiting here for your love Come and show me what you're made of
Stay the night And I'll decide If it's right Cause I won't wait forever baby Stay the night Come inside Show me why I Should let you Stay the night
This could go either way So don't just stand there at my door Cause I can't No, I can't fight this feeling anymore No more
Stay the night And I'll decide If it's right Cause I won't wait forever baby Stay the night Come inside Show me why I Should let you Stay the night
I can take you down to everywhere I go Never want to take you down that low Been starin' out my window Into negative space On the pavement from the elevator
Down the cornershop to buy the paper Had a premonition you would be there too No way not today It's just more bad news
I want to be vapor Want to rise above the year I want to be steamy And dry up all my tears Cause with my head in the clouds I'd be light upon my heels I want to be vapor I want to be vapor And disappear sometimes
My heart is heavy I feel I'm sinking in My sister tells me that I spread myself too thin Feel like standing in a plaster mold of me What I have is not contagious I see a smile on a passing stranger Think to follow them to see where they go all day Wanna know how it is they get that way
I want to be vapor Want to rise above the year I want to be steamy And dry up all my tears Cause with my head in the clouds I'd be light upon my heels I want to be vapor I want to be vapor And disappear sometimes
I could take you down to everywhere I go But I never want to take you down that low Oh no Oh no
I want to be vapor Want to rise above the year I want to be steamy And dry up all my tears Cause with my head in the clouds I'd be light upon my heels I want to be vapor I want to be vapor And disappear sometimes
I see ya blowin' me a kiss It doesn't take a scientist To understand what's going on baby If you see something in my eye Let's not over analyze Don't go too deep with it baby
* So let it be what it'll be Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me Here's what I'll do I'll play loose Run like we have a day with destiny
** It's just a little crush (crush) Not like I faint every time we touch It's just some little thing (crush) Not like everything I do depends on you Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la
It's raising my adrenaline You're banging on a heart of tin Please don't make too much of it baby You say the word "forever more" That's not what I'm looking for All I can commit to is "maybe"
* Repeat
** Repeat
Vanilla skies (vanilla skies) White picket fences in your eyes A vision of you and me
Stare into God's face Trying to find my place Keeps avoiding me That trace of who I want to be Suffered injustice Don't know what trust is It slipped away But I trust I'll find it someday
* Been disconnected embraced and rejected Either way it doesn't bother me But I keep moving doing what I'm doing Guess that's the way it's s'posed to be Who, what, where and why Voices walk with me at night Who, what, where and why Questions of my life
Angel on my shoulder Winds blow colder And I'm afraid They might blow my angel away I'm the dead ringer There goes the chick singer What they don't know Is what they'll never see
*Repeat
But I Keep movin' doin' what I'm doin' All The fear I've held inside Has left me with some peace of mind And now love's knockin' at my door That's when I know there's something more
I see a mystery ship out on the water I wonder where it's sailing to Is someone waiting in some other harbor These fantasies they blow my way Like sirens to a fool And in the stillness of my soul I keep returning to
* Always you You know I live on the wind where love runs free I come back to you Always you And when I fall to earth you're always there for me I come back, I come back, I come back to you
Looking at myself 'til the mirror shatters I hear a madman sing his tune (he says) It's only love that ever really matters I wake up in this dream tonight That's when I see the truth Of all the faces in my heart There's only one I choose
*Repeat
Something in my soul never changes baby You're the one that's keeping me sane There is no other that I have ever conceived Could be my lover and never leave when I run free Could be my lover, could be my lover
Don't misread the silence And take my distance as a sign There's only one heart that's confused And it's most likely mine I always make the rules And I change 'em all the time Always stayed a step ahead 'Til you looked into my eyes My thoughts are frozen Can't you hear me screaming inside As you come closer Don't know where to run this time
* I feel weak, I'm never weak I always know what to say Don't look at me, I can't speak How did you get to me this way? All I know is what I feel And what I feel is way too real Who I am is what you see Baby how did you ever get to me ever get to me, ever get to me
It could be so easy If you'd make just one mistake Then I won't feel the way I do And I'll say it's fate But this emotion I keep tryin' to leave behind Keeps getting closer Don't know where to run this time
Some days I couldn't get up I couldn't get down Bored of everything Somehow a little black cloud Rained over me Someone was making me mad Good turned bad and I lose everything Just to get you back
But These days the world's alright The sun shines bright I'm kicking off the bad dreams These days I don't think twice I walk on light I'm positively somewhere
(chorus) These days go on long after you've gone These days go on long after you've gone These days go on and on and on and on and on
Out of the fire into the swimming pool Sometimes I drown my tears Same old fears come back Someone was making me ill I bet you're still A two, three, four letter word Guess you heard Pretty little birds fly home
But These days the sun kicks in The good guys win I'm legal in the back seat These days I'm safe and sound Not dragged down You want to know the reason These days go on long after you've gone These days go on long after you've gone These days go on and on and on and on and on
Thank you for not being here I feel better when you're not sleeping in my head Tossing and turning an' messing up the sheets The love we made was incomplete Like the shoes on your feet The same stuff I've heard it before That philosophy starting to bore me Now you won't have to smile and ignore me
These days the karma's right The sun shines bright I'm kicking out the bad dreams These days I don't think twice I walk on light I'm positively somewhere
These days go on [and on and on and on and on] These days go on [and on and on and on and on] These days go on [and on and on and on and on]
Girl meets boy, girl goes crazy Boy looks away, she gets her heart broken No words are spoken Boy comes back and acts As if everything is cool Soon she's got him back on a pedestal She only sees what she wants to see Love is blind, love is so misleading
* I see the light, oh what a light And I am sober All that you served to me No longer will I drink it in I took the time to think it over I see the you that I never knew Now it's finally sinking in I am sober
Girl wakes up and smells the coffee one day Realizes she's on her own again All alone again Boy takes every opportunity To play on every insecurity Get her back on track She's in a daze, back in the fire But will she cave into her old desires
They say the road of life Is paved with good intentions we have No matter how we try To keep our promises, sometime we just can't Little bit of faith can be wondrous It's the only place we can turn to
* Between you and me There's enough love that I believe We'll rise above and we'll get through anything Between you and me
They say that bridges burn From one soul to another if you don't tend the flame And I pray somehow we've learned To build an understanding from the ashes that remain Not enough faith can be dangerous It's the only place we can turn to
*Repeat
There are times I don't feel safe Like we're not on solid ground But I trust your eyes When I see you look this way I know we'll find it, we're gonna find it
It's in your eyes, you wanna cry But you're afraid to let go Sometime the past comes rushing back Emotions overflow You don't have to worry, you know I'll understand I wanna help you through it, anyway I can I'm gonna be here for you, take me by my hand Break through these skies of gray, don't hold back
* Let it rain Let your teardrops wash away the pain By your side I promise to remain My love will pour like sunshine through the rain Let it rain
With every touch, I'll earn your trust You'll see my love is for real So let me in, I'll show you how to love again Don't have to hide how you feel I'll be here to hold you, hold you when you cry With my tenderness, I'll push the clouds aside We'll make tonight the night, you leave it all behind Break through these skies of gray, don't look back
*Repeat
You'll see a brighter day Let my love lead the way To a rainbow in the sky Tears of joy will fill your eyes - let it rain
