You're everything I want to be
All I want is you next to me
I can't sit here one more day
Without you here I'm in dismay
Today is the day
When everything feels much better
Cause girl you and I
Will finally be together
This might be a surprise
You might need to get your bearings
Cause you'll fall in love
When you see me be bold and daring
You're everything I want to be
All I want is you next to me
I can't sit here one more day
Without you here I'm in dismay
Sure there is our past
I get that you might be a skeptic
But don't you worry
I know I'm the one who wrecked it
I've thought quite a lot
I can change at my leisure
The smile you'll probably have
Is a memory I'll treasure
You're everything I want to be
All I want is you next to me
I can't sit here one more day
Without you here I'm in dismay
We have such history
We've so much to tell our grandkids
I'm getting a little ahead
But this is totally how I planned this
You're everything I want to be
All I want is you next to me
I can't sit here one more day
Without you here I'm in dismay

The Little Things You Do
03:12

She's the air that I breathe
She walks by its a tease
Now I'm down on the ground on my knees because I need this
Feel the sun face
I could spend all my days
In your loving embrace is my place because I feel this
You girl are the one
You make me come undone
I promise to be true
My heart is just for you
It's in the little things you do
Though you've just heard me sing
I know you feel this thing
Now it's time to begin wear my ring because we need this
Whisper to me one time
That you'll always be mine
Let 'em talk all they want we don't mind because we feel this
You girl are the one
You make me come undone
I promise to be true
My heart is just for you
It's in the little things you do

She comes home alone each day
No one around nothing to say
Still she feels that awful pull
To feed the need of a hungry world
Sell the merch and buy the lie
Repeat repeat and never try
To look past the sheen
The shiny machine
Consume what they
Erect in your way
Reality is shroud
With patina of doubt
So open your eyes
And see behind
Take a look around
Can't you see them watching?
In every sight and sound
Don't you feel them watching?
They know not what they do
They live their lives as though the truth
Is something they can touch and feel
They never wonder if love is real
How can no one see
This world nakedly
The wheels spin round
To the silent sound
Of puppets on string
Barely living
We dance down the path
While they watch and laugh
Take a look around
Can't you see them watching?
In every sight and sound
Don't you feel them watching?
She can't let them win
How To begin
They think they're in control
She's safe in her mold
But they'll care
They've poked the bear
She wants to shout she knows it all
But she can't run before she crawls
A angry mob can be undone
To make them pay she just needs one
To wake from the dream
And tear down the beams
That hold them high
In their tower of lies
She knows that it's hard
To let down your guard
She needs you now
Before time runs out
Take a look around
Can't you see them watching?
In every sight and sound
Don't you feel them watching?

Work It Out
03:25
|

Maybe you don't think
Anyone is there
But I'm sitting here with you
Watching you with care
Its paining me to see you
Going through such strife
Everyone who follows you
Just wants to right your life
Tell me can you work it out
What's happening with you
Tell me what's it's all about
What you're going through
Something there is pushing you
Can you see it for yourself?
So tell me when you've finally worked it out
I know times are tough
You take it all in stride
I wouldn't dare to direct you
And harm your sense of pride
Not stopping to view your life
Might make you feel alive
Your living like a busy bee
Buzzing in a hive
Tell me can you work it out
What's happening with you
Tell me what's it's all about
What you're going through
Something there is pushing you
Can you see it for yourself?
So tell me when you've finally worked it out
I don't want to interfere
I'm not trying to be mean
Maybe you should wonder why
You're making such a scene
Working very hard
But getting no glory
It must be hard cope
With leading the story
Tell me can you work it out
What's happening with you
Tell me what's it's all about
What you're going through
Something there is pushing you
Can you see it for yourself?
So tell me when you've finally worked it out
Can you work it out?
Can you work it out?
I hope you work it out

Love Happens

Finding a guide to see the light
Can feel so trite when you lack foresight
So That's why we try to open your eyes
Your tears would dry if you'd just apply
Our keen advice
When everything is fine
When you just don't have the time
Just when you are sure you know how your story ends
That's when Love Happens
You're thinking what's best when you know the rest
Can fix your mess at your behest
So kindly direct your stubbornness
Away from your friends so you can accept
What we bequest
When everything is fine
When you just don't have the time
Just when you are sure you know how your story ends
That's when Love Happens
Love is not a trophy
I'm not your allegory
What makes you think you know me
I'm not even lonely
When everything is fine
When you just don't have the time
Just when you are sure that you know how your story ends
That's when Love Happens
