Too Close

I don't really know what to say, what to think
But it occured to me we're a ship that's sinking
we're sinking...
I don't really know what to think, what to feel
But once upon a time this love was real
so real
I got too close again
I guess I got too close to you
You tore apart this love affair
Well, how dare you
Oh....
You gave your heart and I gave mine
but you took it all away
Well how dare you
Oh yeah you took it too far
Oh yeah and what does that prove
Oh yeah you took it too far
Oh yeah and baby
who do you
think you are
I'm not really sure what's left to say
But I'm pretty sure you think of me
of me
As you fall asleep and you start to cry
remember what you did and ask yourself why
why
I got too close again
I guess I got too close to you
You tore apart this love affair
Well how dare you
Oh
You gave your heart and I gave mine
But you took it all away
Well how dare you
Oh yeah you took it too far
Oh yeah and what does that prove
Oh yeah you took it too far
Oh yeah and baby
who do you
think you are
You tore apart this love affair
Well how dare you
You gave your heart and I gave mine
But you took it all away
Well how dare you
Woa...
You tore apart this love affair
Well how dare you
oh
You gave your heart and I gave mine
But you took it all away
Well how dare you
Oh yeah you took it too far
Oh yeah and what does that prove
Oh yeah you took it too far
Oh yeah and baby
who do you
think you are

Dear Best Friend

Dear best friend
Where have you been
The past few months of my life
And I've missed you
But that's not the point I'm trying to get across to you
to get across
So turn back time and re-enter my life again
Dear best friend
All these loose ends
are becoming tangled
And what's the point
of even trying to talk to you
to talk
So turn back time and re-enter my life
With all of the effort one sided
And quite frankly I'm getting so tired
I'm so tired
Of telling you and everything
going in one ear and out the other
I'm so tired of you
(break)
So turn back time and re-enter my life
With all of the effort one sided
Quite frankly I'm getting so tired
I'm so tired
Of telling you and everything
going in one ear and out the other
I'm so tired
With all the effort one sided
Quite frankly I'm getting so tired
I'm so tired
Of telling you and everything
going in one ear and out the other
I'm so tired of you
you
you
I'm so tired of you
Woa
I'm so tired of you
best friend
where have you been
it's been awhile
It's been awhile

Take Me Home
04:21

Hey
Oh yeah
You called me three times today on the telephone
Oh yeah
what should I be thinking
Well, I don't know
'Cause you make me feel like a child again
So happy and so helpless
But this may just be my only chance
to say
that you're all I want
and you're all I need
when I open my eyes
you're all I see
with every breath
I'm breathing your name
wondering if you feel the same
and take me by surprise
pick me up at six
take me to the place you run to
Hey
Take me home
All the things you say
they sound so sweet
oh yeah
But then you go and you disappear on me
Suddenly I'm eleven again
so lonely and so helpless
But this may just be my only chance
to say
that you're all I want
and you're all I need
when I open my eyes you're all I see
With every breath I'm breathing your name
wondering if you feel the same
and take me by surprise
Pick me up at six
Take me to the place you run to
Hey
Take me home
(break)
Suddenly I'm eleven again
so lonely and so helpless
But this may just be my only chance
to say
that you're all I want
and you're all I need
when I open my eyes
you're all I see
with every breath I'm breathing your name
wondering if you feel the same
take me by surprise
pick me up at six
take me to the place you run to
Hey
Hey
You're all I want
and you're all I need
when I open my eyes you're all I see
with every breath I'm breathing your name
wondering if you feel the same
and take me by surprise
pick me up at six
take me to the place you run to
Hey
Take me home
take me home
take me home
hey yeah

Everything
03:26

I knew from the moment I met you
late night at a local bar
dims lights, blues eyes
your hair was long
It took me a couple of years but
couldn't fight it anymore
you were in the corners of my mind
all along
but time keeps moving on
you are where I belong
Oh yeah
You're where I want to be
your life is a part of me
I can't shake this feeling off
oh yeah
you're where I want to go
you're the only one I always want to know
you are everything to me
You gave me a new perspective
so simple and so right
each day got a little brighter in your light
but time keeps moving on
you are where I belong
oh yeah
you're where I want to be
your life is a part of me
I can't shake this feeling off
oh yeah
you're where I want to go
you're the only one I always wanna know
you are everything to me
(break)
You're where I want to be
Your life is a part of me
I can't shake this feeling off
oh yeah
you're where I want to go
you're the only one I always wanna know
you are everything
yeah
you're where I want to be
your life is a part of me
I can't shake this feeling off
oh yeah
you're where I want to go
you're the only one I always want to know
you are everything to me

Stay
03:58
|
|||
|
I wish you loved yourself half as much as I do
Nothing more to say when your help isn't wanted
but I could give you a hundred reasons
why I think you should stay
Aiin't a soul alive that could beat you in kindness
you got a beautiful soul
a bigger heart than Jesus
but I could give you a thousand reasons
why I think you should stay
Please don't leave me alone
this world would be lonely and cold, yeah
and home wouldn't feel like home
if you were gone
Take you out of my life
and all I have is darkness
all the pain I feel
is an endless sadness
But I could give you a million reasons
why I think you should stay
(break)
Please don't leave me alone
this world would be lonely and cold, yeah
and home wouldn't feel like home
if you were gone
Take you out of my life
and all I have is darkness
you've got a beautiful soul
a bigger heart than Jesus
And I could give you a million reasons
why I think you should stay

Nine Years
05:01

Wish we grew up
in the same town
at the playground
the best of friends
Sharing secrets
chasing rainbows
what could have been
Before you were broken
before we fell in love
Before the storm came
before we even knew what love was
Wish I met you
at a seesaw in '89
would of told you
I love your blue eyes and golden smile
Before you were broken
before we fell in love
before the storm came
before we even knew what love was
We could have been happy
Inside of a love without chains
With nothing left to fear
and nothing left to hide away
We could have been together
all that time
And I wish for that every day
We were always just nine years away
Wish I met you
before you grew so insecure
Would have told you that
to this life
there is so much more
Before you were broken
before we fell in love
before the storm came
Before we even knew what love was
We could have been happy
Inside of a love without chains
with nothing left to fear
and nothing left to hide away
We could have been together
all that time
And I wish for that every day
We could have been happy
inside of a love without chains
with nothing left to fear
and nothing left to hide away
We could have been together
all that time
And I wish for that every day
And I wish for that every day
We were always just nine years away

You Could Be the One
03:49
|

|
YOU COULD BE THE ONE
Give 'em all you've got
before it's too late
and tell them from the start
and don't you hesitate
Cause life is a clock
that's ticking out of time
and you could be the one
the one for me
you could be the one
the one for me
And love can steal your heart
and leave you blind
and things will fall in place
if you give them time
'cause love is a war
you fight through side by side
and you could be the one
the one for me
and you could be the one
the one for me
(break)
And you could be the one
the one for me
And you could be the one
the one for me
And you could be the one
the one for me
And you could be the one
the one for me
You could be the one
(you could be the one, you could be the one)
the one for me
And you could be the one
(you could be the one, you could be the one)
the one for me

Hurricane

HURRICANE
I don't ever want to lose the right to call you friend
'Cause it's been so damn long
and don't it feel just like we're starting over again
Standing here in darkness and all I could think
is I don't want to miss a single thing
'Cause even though outside it's raining harder
it ain't raining in my heart
and though we both might go down tonight
this hurricane that we call love
I won't let go of us
Seems we're so far from where we started
how do we get back to that place
All I want to see every moment
is your perfect glow in your face
'Cause standing here in darkness and all I could think
is I don't want to miss a single thing
'Cause even though outside it's raining harder
it ain't raining in my heart
And though we both might go down tonight
this hurricane that we call love
whoa
All I really want to do
is talk to you through the night
all I really want to say
is you don't ever have to hide, yeah
'Cause even though outside it's raining harder
it ain't raining in my heart
though we both might go down tonight
this hurricane that we call love
oh yeah
'Cause even though outside it's raining harder
it ain't raining in my heart
though we both might go down tonight
this hurricane that we call love, oh
this hurricane that we call love
Don't it feel like we're starting over again

Come Monday
03:11
|
|||
|
You turned and said to me
oh, in a loving way
“You should be happy”
and I said, “Well, I'm not okay”
And your heart sank a hundred miles
below the underground
and there you stood so close to me
as you stared into the clouds
and you know the reason why
I'm so damn broken down
Cause come Monday
you won't be around
You tried to comfort me
saying time will fly by
“Three weeks are nothing when you just close your eyes”
But my heart sank a hundred miles
below the deep blue sea, yeah
hoping you would dive on in
and somehow rescue me, yeah
And you know the reason why
I wear such a broken crown
Cause come Monday
You won't be around
And our hearts soared
a hundred miles
high into the sky
and I said I love you
til the day I die
And you know the reason why
I never want to let you down
'Cause come Monday
you won't be around

Tumbleweed
03:19
|

|
Remember me
When you're out there
Letting life pass you by like a tumbleweed
And think of me
When you pass my home
And cry 'cause I left for the city
And I ain't coming back
I ain't waiting around
Broken promises were never enough to keep a girl
On the ground
Size 13 feet
Walking through a field
Deep inside of the hollow
So take a seat
At the restaurant
We used to call our own
'Cause I ain't coming back
I ain't waiting around
Broken promises were never enough to keep a girl
On the ground
And I'll fly away
Don't run to me
'Cause I'll be high up in the sky, soaring
And I'll fly away
Don't run to me
'Cause I'll be high up in the sky, soaring
I'll leave my baggage behind
I'll leave my baggage behind
-instrumental-
And I'll fly away
Don't run to me
'Cause I'll be high up in the sky, soaring
And I'll fly away
Don't run to me
'Cause I'll be high up in the sky, soaring
I'll leave my baggage behind
I'll leave my baggage behind
Remember me
When you're out there
Letting life pass you by like a tumbleweed

Worlds Away
05:03

Sad to say that you're back to your old ways
From the old days
Before you had me
Before you had me
Doing the same thing
Living the same day
That you hated
Oh well it's such a shame
Oh well it's such a shame
And ooh
What am I to do
When you're worlds away
Hard to believe you weren't always a stranger
You were my other half, finishing sentences
You were completing me
I still remember our last day together
Summer weather
Feels like yesterday
I remember everything
And ooh
What am I to do
When you're worlds away
When you're worlds away
And ooh
What am I to do
When you're worlds away
Sad to say that you're back to your old ways
From the old days
Before you had me
Before you had me
And ooh
What am I to do
When you're worlds away
When you're worlds away
And ooh
What am I to do
When you're worlds away

Standstill
03:04

He was a rotten SOB I really shoulda got him
Problem was I loved him too much and
How do you cut the ties
To all those firsts when
You’re sifting through a box
Under your bed
The only thing left to keep him alive in your head
In your head
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
When life is at a standstill
He was an accident just waiting to happen
Don’t know why I let him leave when
All he needs is me loving him
And him loving me
Crying in his arms
Just about to break
The only thing we had was you and me
You and me
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
When life is at a standstill
What do you think you’re doing
Baby, you’re not welcome here
Anymore, oh
He was a rotten SOB I really shoulda got him
Problem was I loved him too much and
How you do you cut the ties?
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
When life is at a standstill

Endlessly
03:27

Roll the window down
let the winter air in
light your cigarette
let the sparks fly again
we've only got one night
let's make this one count
Running down the aisles of a grocery store
yeah we're closer now than ever before
get your money out
I'll double bag the tea
We've only got one night
And I love you endlessly
Hop a train to my door
that's what trains are made for
You don't know how happy I'd be
to find you on my doorstep
Pack your duffel bag
fill it up with clothes
Come away with me
to where, who knows
maybe Baltimore
or somewhere out at sea
We've only got one night
And I love you endlessly
Grab your keys and your coat
Fill the gas tank and hit the road
You don't know how happy I'd be
to find you on my doorstep
Curl up next to me on a Sunday night
watch the tv as you close your eyes
turn the volume down
as you fall to sleep
We're only got one night
And I love you endlessly
We've only got one night
And I love you endlessly
