Gotta Get Away
05:03
|
|||
|
Come with me, and get away
Away from the smoke and noise
Come with me, and get away
Away to a new sunrise
Come with me to paradise
Where I can just unwind
Come with me, and say goodbye
To work I'm leaving behind
Trouble seems to follow me
And I need a place to set me free
Everybody needs to get away
To get away from it all
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here, right now
Come with me, and get away
Away from the smoke and noise
Come with me, and get away
Away to a new sunrise
Come with me, where I can see
The little things in life
Come with me, to where it's green
Where I can feel alive
Trouble seems to follow me
And I need a place to set me free
Everybody needs to get away
To get away from it all
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here, right now
At least for now the trees are greener
Sun shines brighter, air is cleaner
Wine tastes better, rain feels wetter
Elbows out all day in town
It really starts to get me down (It really starts to get me down)
It's so hard to be yourself
When you gotta be yourself
Be yourself harder
I Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away from here...

How Can You Trust
04:17
|
|||
|
How can you trust a man with love
When he don't even know what it is
And how can you trust a man with your heart
When he's busy giving up all of his
A man pours his soul out in the dead of night
And you can't help but lovin' him then
But how can you trust, how the hell can you trust
Trust a man with love?
How can you trust a man with your dreams
When he's only here for today
And how can you build a house and a home
Then turn around and he's gone away
A man pours his soul out in the dead of night
And you can't help but lovin' him then
But how can you trust, how the hell can you trust
Trust a man with love?
He tells you things you wanna hear
And some of them aren't even lies
He feeds you cigarettes, cheap wine and beer
Then you fall right into his bedroom eyes
A man pours his soul out in the dead of night
And you can't help but lovin' him then
Oh but how can you trust, how the hell can you trust
Trust a man with love?
He tells you things you wanna hear
And some of them aren't even lies
He feeds you cigarettes, cheap wine and beer
Then you fall right into his bedroom eyes
A man pours his soul out in the dead of night
And you can't help but lovin' him then
Oh but how can you trust, how the hell can you trust
Trust a man with love?
Oh but how can you trust, how the hell can you trust
Trust a man with love
Trust a man with love, trust a man with love
You can't trust a man with love

Moment in the Sun
03:58
|
|||
|
I see a someone who is brave
You don't wait to be saved
You got the brains, you got the drive
Oh what a time to be alive
You don't need someone to set you free
Look out, here comes my destiny
Time to be who we were meant to be
Relax and have a little fun
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun
Now all of this ain't just a phase
We show our strength in different ways
Now this is real, it ain't no lie
We gotta live before we die
You don't need someone to set you free
Look out, here comes destiny
Time to be who we were meant to be
Relax and have a little fun
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun
I'm so tired of being told
What to wear, what to say and how to say it
I'm so tired that I'm not heard
What I do, what I say and how I say it
I'm so tired of being told
What to wear, what to say and how to say it
I'm so tired that I'm not heard
What I do, what I say and how I say it
Is that so hard (is that so hard)…. to understand
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
I want my moment in the sun (in the sun)
Give me a chance to be the best of me
I want my moment in the sun….

Little Town
04:58
|
|||
|
The pretty lights are out tonight
In this little town
The doors are closed and locked by 9pm
The cars can still get gas by the 7-Eleven
Drinkin' old coffee while
The rain keeps comin' down
Yeah this place is kinda slow
But I need a place to grow
Beyond the corner stores and chicken feed
Sometimes you just let go
And leave the things you know
To find the world you really need
Goodbye Little Town, goodbye
You're not where I belong
Not the stars I'm wishing on
Goodbye Little Town, goodbye
Will you remember me
When I'm gone
Little town, goodbye
No one gets away
From this little town
The old guys, they just drift off into dreams
The promises they made that slipped through their fingers
You see them smile
They don't know what it means
Yeah this place is kinda slow
But I need a place to grow
Beyond the corner stores and chicken feed
Sometimes you just let go
And leave the things you know
To find the world you really need
Goodbye Little Town, goodbye
You're not where I belong
Not the stars I'm wishing on
Goodbye Little Town, goodbye
Will you remember me
When I'm gone, oh Little Town Little
Goodbye oh Little Town, goodbye
You're not where I belong
Not the stars I'm wishing on
Goodbye Little Town, goodbye
Will you remember me
When I'm gone, oh Little Town Little goodbye

Now or Never Love
03:58
|
|||
|
When we first met
So many years ago
I was just a child
Who really didn't know
Love was just a mystery
Who knew what was real
How can children understand
The way they really feel
And now you're back again
It's like you've never gone
I want you just as much
It's where I belong
Now or never love
Now or never love
Now or never love
Feels so fine, now it's time
For a now or never love
When we first touched
Remember how I cried
Everyone before you had been a lie
The way you fit my body
Filled with endless wishes
Dragged you down upon the ground
With endless kisses
And now you're back again
It's like you've never gone
I want you just as much
It's like you've never gone
And now you're back again
It's like you've never gone
I want you just as much
It's where I belong
Now or never love
Now or never love (ooh baby)
Now or never love
Feels so fine, now it's time
For a now or never love
You wait forever for love to come around
Keep on searching, but it's already found
Then give up, there's always second best
There's forever love
And then there's all the rest (oh baby)
Now or never love
Now or never love
Now or never love
Feels so fine, now it's time
For a now or never love
Now or never love
Now or never love (sing it with me now)
Now or never love
Feels so fine, now it's time
For a now or never love...

The River
02:50
|
|||
|
Well the river runs a thousand miles
And I'll follow it to the sea
And the river leads me to my love
Wherever She may be
Well I may not live a thousand years
And the river sees it all
And my love and I will drown our tears
In every waterfall
For two hearts were made for each other
And the river baptises our love
And we two will share the pain and joy
With the heavens up above
Well the river runs a thousand miles
And I'll follow it to the sea
And the river leads me to my love
Wherever She may be
For two hearts were made for each other
And the river baptises our love
And we two will share the pain and joy
With the heavens up above
Well the river runs a thousand miles
And I'll follow it to the sea
And the river leads me to my love
Wherever She may be
Wherever She may be

Do U Wanna
03:49
|

|
Do you remember when I
Would whisper this into your ear
That crazy thing that drove you wild
Six words that said it all
You gave me everything and more
And as we slowly hit the floor
Like an MC Escher we're the perfect mirror, so
Do you wanna (do you wanna)
It's like you never ever
Stopped tracing circles up my spine
But I've learned a thing and more since then
We know just what to do now
You give me everything and more
And as we slowly hit the floor
Like an MC Escher we're the perfect mirror, so
Do you wanna (do you wanna)
Am I chasing memories of when
Am I gonna scream your name again
Mister, mister, babayyy
I don't wanna live without your
I don't wanna leave without your love
Do remember when I
Would whisper this into your ear
That crazy thing that drove you wild
Six words that said it all
You gave me everything and more
And as we slowly hit the floor
Like an MC Escher we're the perfect mirror, so
Do you wanna (do you wanna)
Ahh yeah yeah yeaaahhh
Like an MC Escher we're the perfect mirror, so
Do you wanna (do you wanna)

Never Saw the Light
04:19
|
|||
|
I Never saw the Light in me
‘Till you showed me it was there
I Never knew what I could be
Didn’t know, didn’t know
That someone else
Could really care
How could I prepare for love
I Never had the chance to prove
I was worth believing in
I Never thought the earth could move
Never found, never found a single place
Where I can be, where I'm really free to love
Never saw the light, never saw the light
Never saw the light until you showed me
Never saw the light, no, no, no, no
Never saw the light 'till it was me
Never saw the light 'till it was me
I never want this night to end
Never want the sun to rise
No more reasons to pretend
I don't need, we don't need
To hide away in a sad disguise
And to our surprise is love
Never saw the light, never saw the light
Never saw the light until you showed me
Never saw the light, no, no, no, no
Never saw the light 'till it was me
Never saw the light 'till it was me
When you're livin' like a shadow
And you never see the sun
The light inside can never grow
A guide can never come
Love is like a summer breeze
That blows the clouds away
And lets me be the light in me
A love that's here to stay
Never saw the light, never saw the light
Never saw the light until you showed me
Never saw the light, no, no, no, no
Never saw the light 'till it was me
Never saw the light, never saw the light
Never saw the light until you showed me
Never saw the light, no, no, no, no
Never saw the light 'till it was me
Never saw the light 'till it was me
Never saw the light 'till it was me
Never saw the light 'till it was me...

I'm Still Here
04:23
|
|||
|
The clouds above you are so dark and cold
But I will blow them all away
The shadows below you follow in your steps
But I will shine a light
So please, don't you fret my child
I'm standing here, right by your side
Don't you cry, for tears should not be wasted
On what never can be undone
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here
The pain you chained and locked inside your heart
But I will carry the key
Dragging bags so packed full of the past
But I will carry them all
So please, don't you fret my child
I'm standing here, right by your side
Don't you cry, for tears should not be wasted
On what never can be undone
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here
When your dreams won't start
I'll be there
When it seems too hard
I'll be there
Even through the darkest times
I'm always here
When you need me, just call
So please, don't you fret my child
I'm standing here, right by your side
Don't you cry, for tears should not be wasted
On what never can be undone
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here
Yeah I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here....

I Believe
04:27
|
|||
|
I stayed so many times before
'Till their broken hearts break mine too
Bing alone with someone else
Was better than living with myself
But when the sun came up this morning
And I'm lying here next to you
And I'm shaking, 'cuz there's no warning
It's like loving is something new
I believe, finally I believe
In your love, in your love
I believe, finally I can see
I've found the one
My somebody
The love I have was stolen
And the darkness came much too soon
His light is gone, and I can't move on
No, no love like that again
And I'm shaking, 'cuz there's no warning
It's like loving is something new
I believe, finally I believe
In your love, in your love
I believe, finally I can see
I've found the one
My somebody
But it's always, always raining
And the clouds, they follow me
When you look at me that way
I don't know who to be
So I turn away, I'm crying
'Cuz I don't deserve this chance
When you see just who I am
You'll be gone, you'll be gone
So you take my hand, and you pull me close
Pull me close, pull me close
I believe, finally I believe
In your love, in your love
I believe, finally I can see
I've found the one
My somebody
I believe, finally I believe
In your love, in your love
I believe, finally I can see
I've found the one
My somebody...

Thank You for Loving Me
03:02
|
|||
|
Thank you for loving me
If only for a while
Thank you for loving me
Although I know it's been such a trial
My anger and my pride
My tears that almost dried
How could you ever, ever love me
Thank you for loving me
And if you ever did
Thank you for loving me me
The good, the bad, and everything we had
The pain that cut through you
The pain that stabbed me too
How could you ever, ever love me
And then you didn't love me
I was empty and alone
Sticking bits of broken life
Together in my room
A make believe existence
You were always there inside
Wide awake at midnight
With a love I couldn't hide
Thank you for loving me
I hope some when you did
Thank you for loving me
Although I know I was just a kid
But I can't change the past
Some things aren't made to last
How could you ever, ever love me
How could you ever, ever love me

Happily Ever Now
03:40
|
|||
|
It may not be forever
It's no guarantee
All I give is here and now
This is love, this is me
When it's right, it's right
Whether old or new
But if you try to nail it down
Then it's gone, it's gone
One thing I won't tell you
Is Happily Ever After
Don't expect me to say I do
But this I promise you
Happily Ever Now
Gonna love you like there's no tomorrow
Happily Ever Now
Now I'm here with you, It's goodbye to sorrow
I don't know what's coming
But I know what I have here
So I'll live Happily Ever Now, with you
Wedding rings that promise
Love until you die
Faithfulness, a pure white dress
Is it true, or a lie?
Everybody changes
Each and every day
When love becomes a chore instead
Could we grow, the same way?
One thing I won't tell you
Is Happily Ever After
Don't expect me to say I do
But this I promise you
Happily Ever Now
Gonna love you like there's no tomorrow
Happily Ever Now
Now I'm here with you, It's goodbye to sorrow
I don't know what's coming
But I know what I have here
So I'll live Happily Ever Now, with you
Happily Ever Now
Gonna love you like there's no tomorrow
Happily Ever Now
Now I'm here with you, It's goodbye to sorrow
I don't know what's coming
But I know what I have here
So I'll live Happily Ever Now
I'll live Happily Ever Now
I'll live Happily Ever Now, with you
