It's been a long time since I saw you Been so long since I touched your face You know there's nothing I can do That will help to get me through Cause I know you wont be there for me again
Chorus If I could dream about tomorrow If I could dream the night away You know there's nothing I could do To get me over you
You used to be there every morning You had that smile upon your face But now that smile is turned around And my world is upside down Cause I know you won't be there for me again
Chorus
Bridge I know I'll miss you, but you will never hurt again I know you're happy, but now I feel such emptiness inside
We're clueless, and we got all the answers We're brilliant, we got no cure for cancer Don't stay out in the sun too long Don't you dare eat meat, don't do nothing wrong Did you see the news, can we breath today? They say the rain is on the way
Chorus Yeah, it's going through my brain it's like acid rain Yeah, we've got too much to learn It's like I'm getting burned out now It's running through my brain These tears are acid rain
We're useless, we'll live to be a hundred We're genius, you know our days are numbered I laid out in the sun all day, ate a chili dog Got it all the way, I didn't watch the news Don't care what they say They say more rain is on the way
Chorus
Bridge Save me... the sky is scaring me Save me... I can hardly breathe
Chorus
Yeah it's going through my brain, it's like acid rain Yeah, we've got too much to learn It's like I'm getting burned Hey, it's driving me insane, it's like acid rain Yeah, we've got too much to learn Like I'm getting burned out now It's running through my brain It's driving me insane These tears are acid rain
Everything that I do just doesn't seem Quite good enough for you No matter how hard I try you still complain You're never satisfied
And I don't know how I can put up with you Do you realize that you criticize every single thing that I do
Chorus: Well I'm just trying to do the best that I can So why are you always bringing me down? I make the best of every circumstance so why are you always bringing me down? Does it make you feel better?
Anytime that I want to do anything You tell me it's not right And it seems like every time, you talk to me You're trying to start a fight
And I don't know how much more I can take of you When you put down, and you turn around Every single thing that I do
Chorus
Solo
Bridge: You're so condescending, it's making me mad You go out of your way just to make me look bad
And I don't know how I can put up with you Do you realize that you criticize every single thing that I do And I'm getting tired of your attitude
I bet I've seen that face a hundred times or more Then you shed a tear What do you want from me? Is it something more than I can give? Just let me know Then you walk in my arms and say I need you more today
Chorus Dream baby dream Kiss me goodnight and I'll rock you to sleep Dream baby dream.... just slippin' away
Sometimes I'm so afraid there's nothing I can do You're always on my mind You know my hands were tied, and you know how hard I tried To never let you go Then you walk in my arms and say goodbye
Chorus
Bridge Down on my knees I pray for you every day I've been alone since you went away
I know the storm is coming there are clouds up ahead You can't keep running you better face the clouds instead When the storm winds blow don't you cover and hide You've got to let go of the demons you're keeping inside There's no shelter from your pain
Chorus: So get ready for the rain Get ready for the rain
Now you can't change the weather though you've tried to for years But the rain is coming and there's no way to hold back the tears Too late to say you're sorry you'll have to take the blame But the water is rising and it won't wash your problems away There's no shelter from your pain
Somebody wake me, there's a stranger lying next to me And what we did last night was it purely physical Or did we have some kind of chemistry Hold me, do I feel like your reality Or are we dreaming and do you see me for my true personality
Pre-chorus: So come with me and we can find a way yeah Has lady luck and circumstance Brought us both here together today
Chorus: And out of the blue, I've fallen for you And I don't know what time or what day it is If this is a dream, then just let me sleep And don't wake me up if it changes
Well can you feel me? is this real or is it fantasy? If this is make believe, then I don't want to leave I could stay here for eternity Tell me, does it feel like we have met before Some kind of deja vu, do you feel it too? Could my soul somehow connect to yours
It seems just like yesterday When Julie showed up and took daddy away The way that dress wore her, a fitting reminder... oh yeah! That year everything felt so cold Mom was so young, now she's feeling so old No matter how she tries, she can't put it behind her
Prechorus: I went from 8 to 18, dad went from me to her
Chorus I remember the day and the week and the weather The smile on your face as you walked away I remember the part where he left us forever At the time I thought that it was the end Can you remember how you loved me then?
I can't stand this anymore Haven't you changed since you walked out that door I wonder how it'd be if you hadn't found her
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Solo
Bridge: Let it go I will say no I can't care anymore, I can't love anymore I tried to hold onto something that I lost before
Can you remember from way back when It was the summer that we became best friends And we made a promise that nothing could tear us apart Now we used to hang out behind the old motel We'd throw apples at cars and run like hell We might've had a few close calls, but we never got caught But when the sun went down we didn't go home yet We would lay on the grass and smoke cigarettes And stare up at the sky and count up all the stars, that's when
Chorus: The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever But nothing ever does so we'll just have to remember Though time slips by, the memories remain I could never forget when the nights were young
Back then they said that we were way too young But we were old enough to have some fun And we'd laugh until it hurt and we were both in tears Now we used to stake out the neighborhood liquor store We couldn't go inside for a couple years more So we'd send the older kids to sneak a couple of beers We didn't have a care or a worry back then We could count on each other through thick and thin Nothing could come in between us we swore 'till the end, that's when
Chorus
Solo
The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever But nothing ever does so we'll just have to remember The nights were young and we swore we'd always be together But we went our separate ways so we'll just have to remember Though time slips by the memories remain I could never forget when the nights were young
Looking for direction, got nowhere to place my loyalties I've stumbled and I've fallen, my life is breaking me down like some disease I'm lost in the darkness, can't find the light, I can't see anymore I'm crying, I'm waiting, I'm asking is there something more?
Pre-chorus Have mercy, have mercy, in the name of God have mercy Please help me, please help me, in the name of God have mercy
Chorus I don't know, I don't know, I don't know where I'm going to I don't know, I don't know, forgive me I know not what I do
Looking for the answer, I've been asking the question I'm on my knees Show me, help me, in the name of God I'm begging please
Didn't know I could go the distance I could've given up without a fight But when I first saw you, from that moment You changed my life Didn't even know I had it in me To care for somebody that much And it scares me to think How this could be dangerous
Pre-chorus Now it's too late to turn back I've fallen for you There's nothing I wouldn't do
Chorus I believe I could walk on your water I would drown in your river of love And I know I could walk through the fire I would burn in the flames of your heart If I get too close to you I might hurt myself Like a moth that flies too close to the flame I can't help it, 'cause for your love I'd do anything
I would walk for a million miles Just to get one step closer to you I'd give everything that I own Just to spend time alone with you
Prechorus
Chorus
Bridge For your love I'd do anything I've waited a lifetime for someone like you There's nothing I wouldn't do
There used to be a time when I would call and you'd be there Now your leaving's killing me and the time we spent together Why can't we tape the picture that is scattered on the floor I guess there's just no love here anymore
Chorus: I can't hide from my emotions Stop old dreams and crush my fears and turn away forever I'll get by without you now so leave me alone You won't be there tomorrow Your love is like an arrow through my heart
I tried everything I could to hold onto that life But now I see I realized I wasn't always right I'll take the good and leave the bad and walk out of the door I guess there's just no love here anymore
Bridge: With all the tears I cried I should have drowned out all the pain I'll never go back, never cry, I've got too much to gain

I got home late on a Saturday night And I knew right away something wasn't right I knew she was gone
She took all I had but, left a hole in my heart Should've known it would go bad, right from the start -What did I do wrong?
I can't understand why she would leave me this way -With nothing to say Then I found the note on the door It said good-bye and she don't want me no more
Chorus: "Bye bye baby, bye bye....", She said in her letter -And that was all she wrote Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever -And that was all she wrote
I called on the phone, but she wasn't there Should've know all along that she just didn't care -Why did she have to go?
Now I look at her picture and I wonder why she left me this way...-Why did she say goodbye? -I guess I'll never know
I can't understand why she would leave me this way -With nothing to say I remember the note on the door It said good-bye and she don't want me no more

Do you remember when we were only kids Knew everyone in our neighborhood and swore that we Would never forget Well time flies and the years go by, but memories never fade I've been gone much too long, gotta get back there someday But my travelin' days ain't over yet And no matter how far away There's one thing I can't forget Home is where the heart is But I'm always on the run Home is where the heart is Though my journey's just begun Home's where the heart is
We used to hang out through the day and party all night long I never thought I'd go away from the place where I belong But here I am on the road again and my love is miles away I've been gone much too long, gotta get back there someday But my travelin' days ain't over yet And not matter how far away There's one thing I can't forget Home is where the heart is But I'm always on the run Home is where the heart is Though my journey's just begun Home's where the heart is Home's where the heart is
No matter how far away The one thing I can't forget Home is where the heart is But I'm always on the run Home is where the heart is Though my journey's just begun Home's where the heart is But I'm always on the run Home is where the heart is Though my journey's just begun Home's where the heart is Home's where the heart is Home's where the heart is
Girl, you and I've been together As long as I can remember We've come too far to throw it all away But you tell me that you're leavin' Oh and I just can't believe it You know I'd do anything if only you would stay So if you love me, then don't leave me Don't throw it all away Baby, I'm beggin' you please Don't walk away (Well) Don't leave and break my heart (Well) It hurts because I love you and it's tearin' me apart Never too late to say we're sorry and try another way I'm down on my knees, I need you baby Don't walk away Now we've both done things that we regret We could learn to forgive and forget We'll make it better, give it another try Baby, don't give up, don't give in Walkin' away won't solve anything There's nothin' that I wouldn't do to keep you satisfied So if you love me, then don't leave me Don't throw it all away Baby, I'm beggin' you, please Don't walk away (Well) Don't leave and break my heart (Well) It hurts because I love you and it's tearin' me apart Never too late to say we're sorry and try another way I'm down on my knees, I need you baby Don't walk away
