This Time Around

�

You Never Know

You walk around me, baby, everyday.

It's a lesson that is in your head.

You keep on giving, baby,

but not enough forgiving.

I'm not kidding, baby.

Is it something I said?

CHORUS:

You never know, baby, you never know, baby

you never know, baby, you never know.

You judge a song by how I light up a show,

but baby you never know.

Woa, woa, woa woa. Woa, woa.

If Only

Well every single time I see you I start to feel this way�
It makes me wonder if I am ever gonna feel this way again.�
There's a picture that's hangin'�
n the back of my headead�
I see it over and over�
I wanna hold you and love you�
In my arms and then�
I wanna need you�
cause I need to be with you till the end�
Then I hear myself reply "You've got to hold it in" this time�
tonight�

chorus:�
If only I had the guts to feel this way,�
if only you'd look at me and want to stay,�
if only I could take you in my arms and say,�
I won't go cause I need you�

Sit here waiting, wondering, hoping that I'll make this right�
cause all I think about is your hands, your face and all these lonely nights�
There's a feeling screaming in the back of my head�
Saying it over and over�
I wanna hold you and love you�
In my arms and then�
I wanna need you�
cause I need to be with you till the end�
Then I hear myself reply "She'll never let you in" this time�
tonight�

If only I had the guts to feel this way,�
if only you'd look at me and wanna stay,
if only I could take you in my arms and say,
I won't go cause I need you�
I wanna hear you say it'll always be this way�

And we'll be hand in hand for everynight and everyday�
I wanna scream and shout 'cos I'm losing any doubt�
And all I care about is you and me and us and now�
If only I had the guts to feel this way,�
if only you'd look at me and wanna stay,
if only I could take you in my arms and say,
I won't go cause I need you�

Please don't go cause I need you now�
Yeah. Cause I need you�
If only, yeah cause I need you now�
If only cause I need you, I need you�
If only , cause I need you�
If only cause I need you�
If only, yeah, if only...I need you now....yeah

This Time Around

It's getting colder in this ditch where I lie

I'm feeling older and I'm wondering why

I heard they told her it was to tell and live or to die

I didn't know her but I know why she lied

I didn't know her but I know why she died

�

(Yeah) You can't say I didn't give it

I won't wait another minute

We're on our way this time around

You can't say I didn't give it

I won't wait another minute

We're on our way this time around

And we won't go down

�

I heard them say that dreams should stay in your head

Well I feel ashamed of the things that I said

Put on these chains and you can live a free life

Well I'd rather bleed just to know why I die

�

You can't say I didn't give it

I won't wait another minute

We're on our way this time around

You can't say I didn't give it

I won't wait another minute

We're on our way this time around

And we won't go down

And we won't go down

And we won't go down

And we won't go down

All I know is that fear has to go

This time around

�

I've started feeling like I don't want to fight

Give in to the given and put out the light

Cannons a blazing shower these moonlit skies

Then I remember and I know why he died

Do you know why I die?

�

You can't say I didn't give it

I won't wait another minute

We're on our way this time around

You can't say I didn't give it

I won't wait another minute

We're on our way this time around

You can't say I didn't give it

�

�

Runaway Run

And I waited for you

And I waited for you

Just a picture and a feeling and your face

How could I forget your touch, your warm embrace?

And the shoes you wore with long black satin lace

As you walked into my mind

As you walked into this old forgotten hall

Just one look and I began to fall

Wish I could frame you and this feeling on the wall

Stare at it 'til there is no time

Ohh...

And I waited for you

Just hoping that you'd come back to me

And I waited for you...

�

CHORUS

Run, (run) run, runaway run

Maybe someday I'll find someone to

Run, (run) run, runaway

Maybe someday, maybe someday

�

From a distance I watched the flowers brush your cheek

As you read the words I wrote, I couldn't speak

But now I lay here, broken heart and blistered feet

As you're spinning 'round my mind

And I waited for you

Just dreaming of you coming to me

And I waited for you...

�

CHORUS

�

When your weak you can know that it's alright

As you sleep, I can follow you all night

We can talk just as long as you hold on tight

Just one breath is a million sighs

I can tell every breath that you're breathing

I can feel every thought that you're thinking

We can talk 'til a thousand years gone by, you and

I...

�

CHORUS

�

Run, run, runaway run

Maybe someday I'll find some way

Maybe someday

Maybe someday

I'll run away

�

�

Save Me

Loving you�

Like I never have before�

Needing you, just to open up the door�

If begging you�

Might somehow turn the tides,�

Then tell me to.�

I've gotta get this off my mind.�



I never thought I'd be speaking these words,�

I never thought I'd need to say,�

"Another day alone is more than I can take."�


CHORUS�

Won't you save me?�

Saving's what I need.�

I just want to be by your side.�

Won't you save me?�

I don't want to be�

Just drifting through this sea of life.�


Won't you listen please.�

Baby don't walk out that door!�

I'm on my knees�

You're all I'm living for.�



I never thought I'd be speaking these words.�

Heaven thought I'd find a way.�

Another day alone is more than I can take.�


CHORUS�

Suddenly the sky is falling.�

Could it be it's too late for me?�

Well if I never said I'm sorry,�

Then I'm wrong.�

Yes I'm wrong.�

I think I hear my spirit calling.�

Wondering if she's longing for me.�

And then I know that I can't live without her.�



CHORUS�

Won't you save me?�

Won't you save me?�

Won't you save me?

�

Dying to be Alive

I heard you crying�

Somebody stole my soul.�

How could I be dying?�

I turned 25 days ago.�

Yeah, we're all...�


CHORUS�

On the ground just crying out,�

"Somebody save me please."�

I won't sit around just thinking about�

Troubles that tomorrow brings.�

Yeah�


I'm dying to be alive, yeah�

I'm dying to be alive, yeah�

Let's not go through our lives�

Without just dying to be alive, yeah.�


I've never been touched the way you touch me.�

I hope I can touch you, too�

Cause in this life it's hard to tell�

What's false and what is true.�


CHORUS�


And we all come tumbling down�

No matter how strong�

We all return to the ground.�

Another day gone�

Takes me closer to fate�

Soon we'll find it's a little bit too late�

Too late, yeah.�

Yeah.�


Na na na na na na na na na na.�


The things you see�

The way you see them�

Will never be seen again�

Just go through life�

Living on luck�

Been 10,010�

Mistakes I've made�

in this life�

Can't say why or when�

but the thing that's strange is�

you only live once�

and never look back again�


CHORUS�


And we all go tumbling down�

No matter how strong�

We all return to the ground�

When the day's come,�

Say 'Why did I wait?'�

You can't surrender your life to fate.�

You've got to turn it around�

before it's too late.

�

Can't Stop

(tuning radio)�

Can't stop thinking about you(x2)�

Morning, day or night�

I tremble at your sight�

It's impossible to fight�

I've tried�

Now you're in my head�

And your mind I've read�

Gonna stop the words you said�

Now I�

CHORUS�

Can't stop thinking about you�

I can't get you off my mind.�

Can't stop thinking about you�

I'm thinking about you all the time(x2)�

Tell me, I've thought it through�

And all along you knew�

I just want you to be mine�

Nothing I can do�

I'm all wrapped up with you�

Even if I wanted to�

I'm out of time�

CHORUS�

I want to know�

Say why is it so�

I can't stop thinking?�

(Can't stop thinking about you)�

(repeat)�

Yeah�

tic toc tic toc�

Where's the clock?�

Not a second passes�

I can't stop, said(x4)�

Can't stop, can't stop�

I can't stop it(x4)�

Take me to a place�

Where I can only see your face�

I've really lost my way�

This time.�

Tell me what it means�

I'm bursting at the seams�

You're in my thoughts, my dreams�

Yeah, I...�

CHORUS�

I want to know,�

tell me why is it so�

I can't stop thinking?�

(can't stop thinking about you)�

Woa, why?(x4)�

Can't stop it�

Can't�

Stop�

Can't�

Stop

�

Wish I Was There

The sun has fallen�

Another day gone without you�

My heart keeps calling�

And I don't know just what to do�

When you're near me�

I seem to forget my lonely days�

It's more than a feeling�

It's something that can't be explained�

CHORUS:�

I wish that I was there�

I wish that I was there�

When you're not here,�

I wish that I was there.�

(repeat)�

You were falling�

Now I'm coming around again�

I was calling�

Cause without you it's the end�

I just want to see you a little more�

I just want to dream of you some more�

I just want to see you a little more�

I just want to be with you some more.�

CHORUS�

And you make me feel�

Won't you take me when you're not here�

It's been raining here�

And I just want you to be near.�

I just want to see you a little more.�

I just want to dream of you some more.�

I just want to see you a little more.�

I just want to be with you some more.�

CHORUS

�

Love Song

The wind it blows�

through the tree�

claiming those crescent leaves�

and the thunder rolls�

these crashing seas�

like a tender kiss�

holds its heart in me�


CHORUS:�

In this life long�

love song�

You can love right�

You can love wrong�

In this love song�

You can love wrong�

If you love wrong�

it doesn't mean love's gone.�


Mary was a young girl(echo)�

With a young girl's heart�

all i can remember�

was the love from the start�

Allison forever�

she was mine, too�

but something's wrong�

Cause now she's gone�

Tell me what did I do?�

Woa�

It doesn't mean love's gone.�


CHORUS

�

Sure About It

�

�

Hand in Hand

Well say goodbye�

Whoa, whoa-oh�

I know just how much I love you�

There is no time to explain�

I realize�

Just what I'd give to�

Get you back in my arms�

And I�

Chorus:�

I see you hand in hand�

With another man�

And I don't know�

What you see in him and why you let us go�

If you're gonna lie�

At least you could just let us die�

If you're gonna cry to me baby�

At least you could just say goodbye�

Say goodbye�

Well, I'm caught between myself and me�

And I, I can't find the bridge from my mind to reality�

I'm trying to find�

A place in the sun�

But I'm drowning in the rain that's fallin' every�

place I go�

[Chorus]�

Well, I'm not gonna sit around�

Just waiting for you at all�

Oh, I said, no, no, no, ohhh�

I'm not gonna sit around�

Just waiting for you to come back to me baby�

Ohhhh�

I can't see what you see�

I can't see beyond the window pane�

I can't find what you find�

I can't see beyond the windowpane�

Say goodbye, say goodbye now�

Say goodbye, say goodbye now�

Say goodbye, say goodbye now�

Say goodbye, now�

Well if you're gonna lie�

The least you could is just let us die�

If you're gonna cry to me baby�

The least you could is just say goodbye�

Well if you're gonna lie�

The least you could is just let us die, let us die�

If you're gonna cry to me baby�

The least you could is just say goodbye�

Yeah, say goodbye�

Say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye now�

Oh yeah�

Say goodbye, just say goodbye now�

Say goodbye, say goodbye, goodbye now�

Say goodbye, won't you say goodbye now�

Say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye�

Won't you kiss me goodbye�

Gotta tell me goodbye�

Say goodbye, say goodbye now�

Say goodbye, say goodbye now

�

In the City

I see you walking out that door.�

And you know you can hide no more.�

If I ask you now,�

I know you wouldn't give it up.�

If I asked you how,�

you'd give that look to kill�

Oh, it gives you a chill�

But oh, it gives me a thrill to say�

CHORUS: Do you love me?(x3)�

in our pretty.�

Can you tell me�

Can you tell me�

What's going on in the city?�

(Pretty in the city)�

Sitting there trying to look so sweet�

woa oh, yeah�

what you say's for a love to see�

If I asked you how,�

you'd give that look to kill�

Oh it gives you the chill�

Oh it gives me the thrill to say...�

CHORUS�


I'm only gonna ask you once again�

You gotta tell me once again�

Do you love me?�

I'm gonna ask you once again�

You gotta tell me once again�

Do you love me?

�

Song to Sing

Goodbye four-leaf clovers�

Hello, gone awry�

Don't cry, the fight aint over�

Unless you let it pass you by�

CHORUS:�

I'm looking for a song to sing�

I'm looking for a friend to borrow�

I'm looking for my radio�

So I might find it hard to follow�

I've never been just longing for your loving�

I've never been just wearing down to nothing�

I've never been just looking for a reason�

So that maybe you'd be thinking of me�

Oh-oh�

You'd be thinking of me�

(Oh)All that I have found in reason�

Is reason just to not believe�

And all that you have left is treason�

Is treason just to let it be?�

Oh-oh�

CHORUS�

Just put on your dreams�

and second-hand shoes�

You're so far gone�

that you live to lose�

And it's too late to go home on your own�

You're the tar in the old cigar�

and the worn-out cable on a cable car�

And you're too tired to admit�

you've got to choose.�

CHORUS�

Oh-oh,�

You'd be thinking of me
