But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

CHORUS
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Am I your fire
Your one desire
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way

CHORUS

Now I can see that we've fallen apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know that
Deep down inside of me
You are my fire
The one desire
You are, you are, you are, you are
Don't wanna hear you say...

Don't wanna hear you say,
Ain't nothin' but a heartache,
Ain't nothin' but a mistake,
(Don't wanna hear you say),
I never wanna hear you say,
I want it that way

Tell me why,
Ain't nothin' but a heartache,
Tell me why,
Ain't nothin' but a mistake,
Tell me why,
I never wanna hear you say,
(Don't wanna hear you say),
I want it that way

Tell me why...
Ain't nothin' but a heartache,
Ain't nothin' but a mistake,
Tell me why,
I never wanna hear you say,
(Never wanna hear you say it),
I want it that way

I want it that way

Larger Than Life
Larger Than Life
I may run and hide
When you're screamin' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light

CHORUS
All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

CHORUS

All of your time spent keeps us alive

Chorus

Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life

Chorus

Quit Playing Games With My Heart
Baby...
Even in my heart I see
You're not being true to me
Deep within my soul I feel
Nothing's like it used to be
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad baby

CHORUS
Quit playing games with my heart
Before you tear us apart
I should have known from the start
You know you've gotta stop
Quit playing games with my heart

I live my life the way
To keep you coming back to me
Everything I do is for you
So what is it that you can't see
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
You better quit playi ng games with my heart

CHORUS

Quit playing games with my heart

Baby, baby the love that we had was so strong
Don't leave me hangin' here forever
Oh baby, baby this is not a lie
Let's stop this tonight

Baby, ooh
Quit playin' games
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na baby
Na na na na na na na
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby

Quit playin' games with my heart
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na baby
Na na na na na na na
Quit playin'games with my heart
Na na na na na na na (with my heart)
Na na na na na baby
With my heart, with my heart

Shape Of My Heart
Hmm, yeah, yeah
Baby, please try to forgive me
Stay here don't put out the glow
Hold me now don't bother
If every minute it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man that I've become, oh yeah

CHORUS
Lookin' back on the things I've done
I was tryin' to be someone
I played my part
And kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Sadness is beautiful
Loneliness is tragical
So help me I can't win this war, oh no
Touch me now don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become

CHORUS

I'm here with my confession
Got nothin' to hide no more
I dont know where to start
But to show you the shape of my heart

I'm lookin' back on things I've done
I never wanna play the same old part
I'll keep you (keep you in the dark) in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

CHORUS 2x

Show you the shape of my heart

Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely
So many words for the broken heart
It's hard to see in a crimson love
So hard to breathe
Walk with me, and maybe
Nights of light so soon become
Wild and free I could feel the sun
Your every wish will be done
They tell me

CHORUS
Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I can't be there where you are
There's something missing in my heart

Life goes on as it never ends
Eyes of stone observe the trends
They never say forever gaze
Guilty roads to an endless love
There's no control
Are you with me now
Your every wish will be done
They tell me

CHORUS

There's nowhere to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart' body and soul
How can it be you're asking me to feel the things you never show

You are missing in my heart
Tell me why I can't be there where you are

CHORUS

The Call
*Phone ringing, girl picks up*
Girl: "Hello?"
AJ: "Hi, it's me what's up, baby?
I'm sorry, listen I'm gonna be late tonight
so don't stay up and wait for me, ok?"
Girl: "Where are you?"
AJ: "W-wait wait wait say that again?"
Girl: "Hello?"
AJ: "You�re really droppin' out.
I think my battery must be low!
Listen, if you can hear me,
we�re going to this place nearby, alright?
Gotta go!"

*click of phone hanging up*

Let me tell you the story 'bout the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out
Just to end up in misery
Was about to go home when there she was standing in front of me
I said hi
I got a little place nearby, wanna go?
I should have said no
Someone's waiting for me
But I called my girl up and said

CHORUS
Listen baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
Say again
You're dropping out
My battery is low
Just so you know
We're goin' to a place nearby
Gotta go

Now two years gone
Nothing been won
I can�t take it back
What�s done is done
One of her friends found out
That she wasn�t my only one
And it eats me from inside
That she�s not by my side
Just because I made that call and lied

CHORUS

*phone rings*
Listen baby I'm sorry
*busy signal/touch tone sound*
"Hello...hello...hello"

*phone rings*
Listen baby I'm sorry
*busy signal/touch tone sound*
"Hello...hello...hello"
Gotta go

oh..... (repeated MANY times)

Let me tell you the story 'bout the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out
Just to end up in misery
Was about to go home and there she was standing in front of me
I said hi
I got a little place nearby
Gotta go

CHORUS
