We talked for hours, trying to figure it out
Running out of things to say
Wish I could tell you, I was going to stay
You know it's getting late
Now's the time, please don't cry
But we've got to let it go
Deep inside we both know why
We've been through this before
I don't want to have to say goodbye tonight
So til we meet again
Maybe another place, another time
I don't know when
But I'll think ...
Girl, you're every breath I take, oh baby
Your love rules every move I make, hmm baby
And I know that you can't read my mind
And baby, maybe I
Don't say it as often as I should, but I really want it to be heard
When I say I love you that's for good, you have my word
That day after day after all, I will always be true
That's a promise I make to you
You, you take this heart of mine and make it b...
Mr. Greene asked me yesterday
"Boy, what do you want to be?", yeah
With some work in ten years or so
You could be sitting here just like me, yeah
He said, "Your future looks crystal clear"
I just gotta get away from here
I want to be an eagle soaring high
Sign my name across the sky
I gotta break free before I die
Before another day
Before another day goes by
Oh yeah
My mother said just the ot...
sittin at the table, trying to read the paper
a silence keeps ringing through my head
I made our favorite coffee, but it doesnt taste the same,
another Black moon day
black moon, I cant escape from you
how'd you follow me right into my room?
howd you find me here?
I just cant get away
another black moon day
there's no use to stay in bed, 'cause sleep will never come
I wonder if i'll ever see t...
There's gonna be days like this
When it seems like you're never gonna get your wish
There's gonna be nights
When you can't sleep, can't sleep at all, yeah
There's gonna be people trying to bring you down
When you try to ease the pressure but you don't know how
There's gonna be times
When you think the sky is gonna fall, fall
Just when you feel like you're out on your own
Just look over your sh...
R. Artis, M. Cirince, C. Glover, A. Logan, T. Taylor
Sure you have good intentions
But I forgot to mention
All your charity is clouding up my clarity
Sounds like good advice but
This is not your life and
All your sincerity isn't really helping me
Don't catch me I'm not falling
Don't pick me up cause I'm not crawling
I'll put the pieces together
Can't turn a rock to a feather
Please just let me...
G. Haase, B. Mann
Rememberin' when we first met
We had that adventure in our eyes
But something got away, I guess
In the everyday of our lives
And I don't know what keeps us here
Let's disappear and start all over again
We can runaway
Baby come as you are
You can look at my heart
As your getaway car
We can drive all night
It'll be alright
Love can take us so far
In my getaway car
All we need i...
Three in the morning, tears in your eyes
I made you cry too many times
I took for granted that you'd wait for me
I never dreamed that you could leave
I got here just in time, please one minute more
Before you close the door
Don't walk away, I came back to let you know
I'd be a fool to let you go
I need you to stay, only you can touch my soul
I'd be a fool to let you go
Darling believe me
I kno...
Don't you want my love anymore
Can't believe your heart is sure
That you don't need me, don't need me anymore
How could I not realize
Didn't see the tears you hide
Hide away from me, locked away inside
And I thought that we were gonna last a lifetime
That this road would never end
And I thought that I'll be loving you forever
Without you, where do I begin
What would I do, if I can't love you
I...
She keeps me comin', she keeps me comin'
She keeps me comin', she keeps me comin'
She keeps me comin', she keeps me comin'
She keeps me comin', she keeps me comin'
A casual obsession she captivates my mind
Like a morning cup of coffee she's my bitter high
Caramel completion insatiable green eyes
Stirs up bad intentions and serves 'em with a smile
Lying in the dark
I tell myself no more
Then I ...
It comes on every mornin'
And wakes me with a dream
It comes without a warnin'
And takes me to extremes
That's what you do to me
I need you to do something for me
If I say please down on my knees
Would you let me have it?
Would you concede if I beg and plead?
Would you let me have it?
Don't say no, just let it go
Let me have it
Up and through the evenin'
You're still on my mind
I can't help be...
T. Taylor C. Pierce
Lonely days roll on by
When you're not near me I miss ya
And nothing could ever replace
The high when I kiss ya
Out of sight but on the mind strong
In the waiting place singing my same old song
It's a lonely lullaby
I wrote it with only you in mind
It goes something like???
Lonely days roll on by
When you're not near me I miss ya
And nothing could ever replace
The high when...
Tell me who you see
When you look in my eyes
Yeah, it's really me
That you don't recognize
I almost believed you and gave up
When you wrote me off
You almost succeeded completely
Till somehow I rescued the faith that I lost
Whatcha gonna say, whatcha gonna do
How you gonna get me to me now
Never understood, no you never could
Never really knew me no how
You kicked on me when I was down
It's fu...
There was a man in his car trying to talk to me
He drove a Pontiac, red, 1963
He shouted numbers and neighborhood streets
I said, "I wouldn't know, I wouldn't know"
And then I said to myself, "What's he lookin' for"
An illegitimate son with an open door
Or else the calling from God he could not ignore
I guess in my own way
Just like him I am wandering, wondering, runaway
But aren't we all just...
Nobody said it would be easy
But nobody said it'd be this hard
Making my way with no direction
Can hardly believe I've come this far
I've got a fire
Burning inside my spirit
I've got a dream that helps me to be strong
If there's one thing that I know
With a million miles to go
Nobody, no one
Can take away my song
Everybody has a say about the way I should be living
Everybody says they understa...
So if you don't understand me
And you don't want to understand
Please do me no favors
Let me leave
Release me
I've given up on the answers
I've given up on the reasons why
No need to say that you're sorry
Just to please me
Release me
Let me go
Release me now
Don't say no
Release me now
Time to find what I'm missing
No time for waiting for things that will never come
You clearly don't want to m...
Close the door, close your eyes
Leave the day behind
Until the morning comes you're mine
Safe from the world outside
Let me into you
I'll take you where you need me too
Touch places left unsung
And baby when we're done
I will sing you to sleep
Your soul and your secrets I'll keep
And while the night gently creeps
With you lying next to me
Oh, I'll sing you to sleep
I'll sing you to sleep
A sim...
Love was burning like the summer
We were lost in one another
Holding on, holding on
We could not escape the heat
Love was dangerous but sweet
And it was strong
Now you're talking 'bout your freedom
What is that you say?
You suddenly declared to me
Your independence day
Caught me by surprise
Fog turning to ice
Well it ain't even cold baby
How could it snow in July?
You led me to believe it
You ...
R. Artis, J. Blades, J. Dean
When you wake in the middle of the night
Don't you think that you need someone
Lying close, and holdin' on to you
When you dream what 'cha dream about
When you wish, do you wish upon a star
Well girl, I'm wishing on the same star too.
Suddenly, it occurs to me baby
That you and I, are meant to be together
I'm the man who can make your dreams come true
I'm so good f...
She was the prettiest girl you've ever seen
Everybody said little Jane's gonna be a beauty queen
Like a rare flower, a summer breeze
She had the kinda somethin'
That could bring you to your knees
But no one heard her cry at night
And no one saw the pain inside
When he opens her door to turn out the light
In her mind little Jane ran away
A hundred thousand times
"Sweet lady Jane", that's what h...
they talk behind your back and they say this and that, nobody wants to hear this stuff, oh no
so be strong and don't let no one bring you down, just be strong
the enemy will hurt your heart,the enemy will
make you be sorry, and feel guilty for things you never did, so just ignore the enemies
anyone can say things to betray anybody, so didn't listen to anything, unless you know what their talki...
Oh babe, yeah
I can't seem to reach through
The heartache that you cling to
I only hope you hear what I have to say, yeah
My arms can only reach so far
Tell me how to get to where you are?
Violet, don't save regrets
Like pennies for a rainy day
They'll just weigh you down
Until somehow you throw them all away
Violet, hey yeah
I can't rewrite your history
Or erase the painful memories
I can onl...
