You Never Know
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Whoa Whoa Whoa
You don't know

Whoa Whoa Whoa
Whoa Whoa
You don't know

You walk around like maybe there's something you're missing
Hallucinations happen in your head
This look your giving me is not a look for kissing
Something I did or maybe something I said

You never know baby, you never know baby
You never know baby, you never know
You judge a soul by a lie that was told, baby
You never know baby, you never know

Yeah

Whoa Whoa Whoa
You don't know

I speak these words, but baby you don't even listen
These things I say just go right through your head
(through your head)
I've got my gun, but i'm low on ammunition
I'm like a book that is waiting to be read

You never know baby, you never know baby
You never know baby, you never know
You judge a soul by a lie that was told, baby
You never know baby, you never know

You know I want this
Don't you ever wonder baby
Who's spell you're under
Don't you ever wonder baby
You know I want this
Don't you ever wonder baby
Who's got your number
Don't you ever wonder baby

You never know
Do you ever know? (Do you ever know?)
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Whoa Oh
Whoa Oh

You don't know
Whoa, what's the source of all this
Pain that you've been dishin'
Could they be lies, and maybe you've been fed
(you've been fed)
Consider well the kind of stream where you been fishin'
I'm like a book that is waiting to be read

You never know baby, you never know baby
You never know baby, you never know
You judge a soul by a lie that was told, baby
You never know, baby you never know

-Guitar Solo-

Baby you never know
Whoa Whoa Whoa
You never know (you don't know)
Whoa Whoa Whoa
Whoa Whoa, you don't know

('cause i need you, yeah).('cause i need you)

Well every single time I see you,
I start to feel this way

There's a picture hangin in the back of my head.
I see it over and over

I wanna hold you, love you in my arms and then
I wanna need you coz i need to be with you to 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 would look at me and want to stay
if only I could hold you in may arms and say
I wont go cause I need you
Cause I need you

Sit here waiting, wondering, hoping that It'll make this right
cause all I think about are your hands your face and all these lonly nights.
There's a feeling thatz screaming in the back of my head
i see it over and over.

I wanna hold you, love you in my arms and then
I wanna need you coz i need to be with you to the end
Then I hear myself reply 'should never let you in'
This time tonight

[chorus]

Please don't go cause I need you now
I wanna hear you say we'lll always be this way.
Be in hand in hand for every night and every day.
I wanna scream and shout, im moving every doubt
and all I care a about is you and me and us and now.

Oh yeah, yeah

This Time Around
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)
(for short real clip from hansonline.com click here)

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

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 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 died

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 showers these moonlit skies
Then I remember and I know why he died
Do you know why I died

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
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

Runaway Run
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

And I waited for you...
And I waited for you...

Just a picture, and a feeling and a face
How could I forget your touch, your warm embrace?
And the shoes you wore were 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
To stare at 'til there is no time
Ohh...

And I waited, for you,
Just hoping, that you'ld come back to me
And I waited for you...

[chorus]
Run, run, runaway run
Maybe someday I'll find someone to
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, oohhh

And I waited, for you
Just dreaming, of you coming to me
And I waited, for you...

[chorus]

When you weep you can know that it's alright.
As I sleep, I can follow your door light
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...
I'll runaway

Save Me
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)
(for short real clip from hansonline.com click here)

Lovin you, like I never have before,
I'm needing you, just to open up the door.
If begging you,
Might somehow turn the tides,
Then tell me too.
I've gotta get this off my mind...

I never though I'd be speakin these words,
I never thought I'd need to say,
Another day lonely is more than I can take...

[chorus]
Wont you save me? Saving's what I need,
I just wanna be by your side...
Won't you save me? I don't want to be,
Just drifting through the sea of life...
Wont you...

Listen please? Baby dont walk out that door,
I'm on my knees, you're all im living for...
I never though I'd be speakin these words,
Heaven thought I'd find a way,
Another day lonely is more than I can take...

[chorus]

Suddenly the sky is falling,
Could it be too late for me?
Well if I never said I'm sorry,
Well I'm wrong, yes I'm wrong.
Then I hear my spirit calling,
Wondering if you're longing for me,
And then I know, that I cant live without her...

[chorus] [3x]

Wont you save me...

Dying to Be Alive
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)
(for short real clip from hansonline.com click here)

I heard you crying
Somebody stole my soul.
How could I be dying?
I turned twenty five days ago
Yeah, we're all

[Chorus]
On the ground just, crying out
Somebody save me, please!
I won't sit around just, thinking 'bout
The troubles that tomorrow brings
Yeah
I'm dyin' to be alive, yeah
I'm dyin' to be alive, yeah
(I'm dyin' to just survive)
Let's not go through our lives
Without just dyin' to be alive, yeah

The people you've touched,
I hope they've touched you too.
Cause in this life it's hard to tell,
What is false and what is true.
Yeah we're all...

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
And we all come tumbling down
No matter how (how) strong (strong), we all return to the ground
Another day (day) gone (gone), a day closer to fate
You can't leave it too late
Yeah

[Guitar Break]

Na na na na na na (repeat 6 x)

The things you see, the way you see them,
Will never be seen again
Let's go through life, living on luck,
Betting ten thousand to ten
Mistakes I've mad, in this life,
I can't say why or when
But the thing that's strange
Is you only live once
And never look back again, yeah

[Chorus x 2]

And we all come tumbling down
No matter how strong, we all return to the ground
In the days to come, you'll say why did I wait
You can't just leave your life up to fate
You got to turn it around before it's too late

Can't Stop
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Yeah
Can't stop thinkin' about you,
No I can't stop thinkin' about you...
In mornin', 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,
Could recite the words you've said,
Now I....

[Chorus]
Can't stop thinkin' about you,
I can't get you off my mind.
Ohh I can't stop thinkin' about you,
Thinkin' about you all the time.
Can't stop thinkin' about you,
I can't get you off my mind.
Ohh I can't stop thinkin' about you,
Thinkin' about you all the time...

Cupid's dart seeped through,
And all along you knew,
I just want you to be mine.
Nothin' 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?
Can't stop thinkin' (Can't stop thinkin' about you)
Woah, why?,br>I want to know,
Say, why is it so?
Can't stop thinkin' (Can't stop thinkin' about you)
Woah, why
Ooh yeah

[Rap Break x 4]
Tick tock, tick tock,
Goes the clock,
Not a second passes,
I can't stop.

[Break x 4]
Can't stop (Can't stop)
Can't stop it
Can't stop (Can't stop)
Can't stop it

Take me to a place,
Where I can always see your face,
I 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.
Say, why is it so?
Can't stop thinkin' (Can't stop thinkin' about you)
I want to know.
Say, why is it so?
Can't stop thinkin' (Can't stop thinkin' about you)
I want to know,
Say, why is it so?
Can't stop thinkin' (Can't stop, thinkin' about you)
I want to know,
Say, why is it so?
Can't stop thinkin' (Can't stop, thinkin' about you)
Cant stop it, yeah,
Can't stop
Can't stop
Whoa

Wish That I Was There
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Ohhhhhh, na na na na na

The sun has fallen,
Another day gone without you.
My heart keeps callin',
And I don't know just what to do, oohhh.
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.
I wish that I was there,
I wish that I was there,
When you're not here,
I wish that I was there.

You were fallin',
But now I'm coming round again.
I was callin',
Coz without you it's the end...

[bridge]
I just wanna see you a little more,
I just wanna dream of you some more.
I just wanna see you a little more,
I just wanna be with you some more...

[Chorus]

And let me feel,
Won't you tell me when you're not here,
It's been raining here,
And I just want you to be near...

[bridge]

[Chorus and bridge]

I wish that I was there,
I wish that I was there
When your not here
I wish that I was there

Love Song
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

The wind it blows,
Through the trees,
Claiming those innocent leaves.
And the thunder rolls,
These crashing seas,
Like a tender kiss,
Holds this 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 long,
But if you love wrong,
It doesn't mean love's gone...

Mary was a young girl
(Mary was a young girl),
With a young girls heart,
All I can remember,
Was I loved her from the start.
Well was hers forever
(Well was hers forever),
She was mine too...
But something's wrong, coz now she's gone,
Tell me what did I do...

[ Chorus ]

Bridge
Whoaaaa...
And it doesn't mean loves wrong,
Just because you're feeling low,
And it doesn't mean loves gone,
Coz you feel like you want to let go.
Well no-one wrote this book of love,
That you'd always know.
I wish someone would've told me before...

Talked about love a million times it seems,
Words come out our lips,
Forgot what it means.
And we said we'd be together
(We said we'd be together),
Till death do us part,
But we said those words,
With only half our hearts...
Whoa whoaaaaa

[ Chorus ]

Oh oh oh oh oh
Wish someone would told me before...

Sure About It
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Whoa...
I'm definitely sure that I'm not sure.
Whoa...

Sitting on the corner of 'Nowhere Road',
Just between I wish I could and I don't know,
Rain is splashing up between her toes,
She doesn't know her own area code.
She's a picture of a heart of gold,
On the edge of depression unknown,
And the picture of the wrong I wrote,
Now it's too late for a fight or fold.
Now she's looking at me to know,
The faucets running, and my car got towed...

[Chorus]
I'm sure about it,
I'm definitely sure,
That I do surely doubt it.
I wish that I could say,
That I was sure about it,
I'm definitely sure that I'm not sure...
Whoa, yeah

Did you see the man with the cocaine load?
It's on sale for the price of his soul.
And the man with the long trench coat?
Wish you could hide in a big black hole.
Say you all your pains and fall,
And your crawling down a long, long road,
And your waiting for the box they fold,
All you're missing is a hard days stow,
Now they're looking at me to know,
My heart is pumping and my feet got cold...

[Chorus]
I'm definitely sure that I'm not sure,
I'm sure that I'm not sure,
You know
Ohh, yeah

Sitting on the corner of 'Nowhere Road',
Just between us wish I could not know.
There's a man with a long trench coat,
Wish I could hide in a big black hole.
Now they're looking at me to know,
My heart is pumping and my feet got cold...

[Chorus x 2]

Definitely sure that I'm not sure,
I wish that I could say that I was sure,
Definitely sure that I'm not sure,

(sing to fade)

Hand In Hand
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Yeah,
We'll say goodbye
Whoa, whoa-oh,

I know just how much I love you,
There is no time to explain,
I realise,
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,
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.
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 window pane.

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 do is just let us die.
If you're gonna cry to me baby,
The least you could do is just say goodbye.
Well if you're gonna lie,
The least you could do is just let us die, let us die.
If you're gonna cry to me baby,
The least you could do 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. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)
(for short real clip from hansonline.com click here)

I see you walking out that door,
And you know you can hide no more,
If I asked you now, I know you wouldn't give it up

[bridge]
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 love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me, little pretty?
Can you tell me? Can you tell me?
What's going on in the city?
Sittin there tryin to look so sweet,
Words you say for love to see.

[bridge]

[chorus]

I'm gonna ask you once again,
You gotta tell me once again,
do you love me? [x3]
Do you love me? Do you love me?

[guitar solo]

You gotta tell me once again,
Do you love me?

A Song To Sing
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

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, yeah...
I'm looking for a friend to borrow,
I'm looking for my radio,
So I might find a heart to follow,
I've never been just longin' for your lovin,
I've never been just wearin' down to nothing,
I've never been just lookin' for a reason,
So that maybe you'll be thinkin' of me,
Oooohhhhhh,
You'll be thinkin' of me...

And all that I have found in reason,
Is reason just to not believe.
When all that you are left, is treason,
Is treason just to let it be...

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Blue yonder dreams,
And second hand shoes,
You're so far gone that you live to loose,
And, it's too late to go home on your own...
You're the tar in that old cigar,
And the worn out cable on a cable car,
And you're too tired to admit you've got to choose...

[Chorus]
