Oh, oh, oh No matter what you say about love I keep coming back for more Keep my hand in the fire Sooner or later, I'll get what I'm asking for No matter what you say about life I learn every time I bleed That truth is a stranger Soul is in danger, I gotta let my spirit be free To admit that I'm wrong And then change my mind Sorry but I have to move on And leave you behind [Chorus] I can't waste time so give it a moment I realize, nothing's broken No need to worry 'bout everything I've done Live every second like it was my last one Don't look back, got a new direction I loved you once, needed protection You're still a part of everything I do You're on my heart just like a tattoo I'll always have you, I'll always have you I'm sick of playing all of these games It's not about taking sides When I looked in the mirror, didn't deliver It hurt enough to think that I could Stop, admit that I'm wrong And then change my mind Sorry but I gotta be strong And leave you behind [Chorus] (Just like a tattoo, I'll always have you, I'll always have you) [Bridge] If I live every moment Won't change any moment Still a part of me and you I will never regret you Still the memory of you Marks everything i do [Chorus x2] Just like a tattoo I'll always have you Back To Top |

Da da da dum da da Da da da da dum da da Hurry up and wait So close but so far away Everything that you always dreamed of Close enough for you to taste But you just can't touch You wanna show the world but no one knows your name yet You wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it You know you can, if you get the chance In your face and the door keeps slamming And now you're feeling more and more frustrated And you're getting all kind of impatient Waiting We live and we learn to take [Chorus] One step at a time There's no need to rush It's like learning to fly Or falling in love It's gonna happen when it's Supposed to happen And we find the reasons why One step at a time Da da da dum da da Da da da da dum da da Da da da dum da da Da da da da dum da da You believe and you doubt You're confused, you got it all figured out Everything that you always wished for Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours If they only knew You wanna show the world but no one knows your name yet You wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it You know you can, if you get the chance In your face and the door keeps slamming And now you're feeling more and more frustrated And you're getting all kind of impatient Waiting We live and we learn to take [Chorus] [Bridge] When you can't wait any longer (you can't wait) But there's no end in sight (ooo) (When you need to find the strength) It's your faith that makes you stronger The only way we get there Is one step at a time Da da da dum da da Da da da da dum da da [Chorus x2] Back To Top |
| No Air |
|
[Jordin] Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air If I should die before I wake It's cause you took my breath away Loosing you is like living in a world with no air, oh [Chris] I'm here alone, didn't want to leave My heart won't move, it's incomplete If there was a way I can make you understand [Jordin] But how do you expect me To live alone with just me Cause my world revolves around you, it's so hard for me to breathe [Chorus] Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air Can't live, can't breathe with no air That's how I feel whenever you ain't there There's no air, no air Got me out here in the water so deep Tell me how you gonna be without me If you ain't here I just can't breathe There's no air, no air No air, air (oh) No air, air (oh) No air, air (oh) No air, air [Chris] I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew Right off the ground to float to you There's no gravity to hold me down for real [Jordin] But somehow, I'm still alive inside You took my breath but I survived I don't know how, but I don't even care [Jordin] So how do you expect me To live alone with just me Cause my world revolves around you, it's so hard for me to breathe [Chorus] No air, air (oh) No air, air (oh) No air, air (oh) No air, air [Bridge] No more It's no air, no air Oh [Chorus x2] Back To Top |

Hold the pose, a perfect picture Just so I remember how you're looking tonight Let it go, now the days gone Standing in the dark, although we've turned on the lights Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by It's leaving you and I to [Chorus] Freeze the moment It's never been better Freeze all over We won't last forever You said that you're sorry for pushing me But then smiled when I opened my eyes I'm gonna freeze the moment While we're together Keep the peace, by gones be gone Coming up the rain under the life that we've made Under here, we're not so soft Forgiving the feelings that we put on parade Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by It's leaving you and I to [Chorus] You said that you're sorry for pushing me But then smiled when I opened my eyes I'm gonna freeze the moment While we're together Don't stop, gotta know what you got There's no second chances in life Don't break, gotta give what you take With you Freeze the moment It's never been better Freeze all over We won't last forever [Chorus] You looked at me with the truth in your eyes And you said it's ok, you can go I'm gonna freeze this moment This moment, while we're together Freeze a moment Back To Top |
| Shy Boy |

Are you a shy boy?
We're in the door, I get a smile from a fly boy He's seen me before and makes his move like a fly boy I'm sick and tired of them fly boys So bye bye boy I'm in the lounge, I get a wink from a bad boy He comes around all puffed up like a bad boy I'm sick and tired of them bad boys [Chorus] Cause I've got my eye on this other guy Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy So I gotta know Are you a shy boy? Shy boy, shy boy I'm by the stage, I get a look from a rock boy He's got the shades on indoors like a rock boy I'm sick and tired of them rock boys So bye bye boy Out on the floor, I get the moves from a homeboy Trying to score, his body rocks like a homeboy I'm sick and tired of them homeboys [Chorus] Freak boy Fresh boy Slick boy You're messing with a tom boy Might just knock you out like a school boy Crude boy Playboy Cowboy I heard it all before, boy I'm going out to get me a shy boy Shy boy, shy boy, shy boy [Chorus x 2] Shy boy Shy boy Shy boy Shy boy Back To Top |
| Now You Tell Me |
|
Is there anything that can make you happy? I don't know what to say to make it better Seeing you like this, down and hurt so badly When you have been so kept together What's this? All this time I thought you didn't need me Now I've gone from you and now you tell me [Chorus] You're in love, but that's not what it was All those times that passed by with no signs And now you're telling me You miss me, boy why couldn't I see? And my heart don't agree with what you're telling me You were nonchalant, strong, and unaffected And you never wanted me to be there I never saw your heart, that's how close you kept it So right now I'm so unsure how to care What's this? All this time I thought you didn't need me Now I've gone from you and now you tell me [Chorus x 2] No attention was given No affection from you to heal the hurt I was hoping, I was wishing Just to listen and to hear those words [Chorus x 2] Back To Top |
| Next To You |

Two 'o clock and I wish that I was sleeping You're in my head like a song on the radio All I know is I got to get next to you Yeah I got to get next to you Sitting here turning minutes into hours To find the nerve just to call you on the telephone You don't know that I got to get next to you [Chorus] Maybe we're friends, maybe we're more Maybe it's just my imagination But I see you stare just a little too long And it makes me start to wonder So baby call me crazy But I think you feel it too Maybe I, maybe I Just got to get next to you I got to get next to you I asked around and I heard that you were talking Told my girl that you thought I was out of your league What a fool, I got to get next to you, whoa Yeah it's five in the morning and I can't go to sleep 'Cause I wish, yeah I wish you knew what you mean to me Baby let's get together and end this mystery, oh [Chorus] (Whatcha got to say?

| Just For The Record |
|
I can't help myself If I don't wanna be with nobody else I don't wanna leave my baby's side And I don't wanna kiss another guy I'll pass any test Cause nothing in this world or in the next Could make me second guess Could make me change my mind Could make me not protect what I'm feeling inside Because I'm smart enough to know that this is a good thing Please believe it, please believe it And I'm smart enough to stay right where I belong And I'm faithful enough to know that this is meant to be And if it's not, then don't speak Don't ruin it, let me dream [Chorus] Hear me, hear me This is for my baby There will never be another There's so many ways I love you And that's just for the record, babe I need you, need you I can't wait to see you I so love when were together Can't nobody do it better And that's just for the record, babe I can't be perfect, no one is flawless But rest your mind, 'cause I'll be there Through the good and the bad and the ugly and worse So if it's something that you're lacking Go and tell me first Cause I'm smart enough to know that this is a good thing, yeah Smart enough to stay right where I belong, oh no no no And I'm faithful enough to know that this is meant to be And if it's not, then don't speak Don't ruin it, let me dream [Chorus] So if there's any way to cheat Don't tell me 'cause I don't wanna know And if there's any way to leave Don't tell me 'cause I don't wanna go I don't wanna go to sleep 'cause I don't wanna miss you This is my team and I love my position Lead me anywhere, I'll go with you there I'll go with you there [Chorus x 2] Back To Top |
| Permanent Monday |
|
Fallen leaves, like a blanket at my feet There's a canopy of stars And I just miss you like crazy Suddenly the world's too big And the hours move too slow And I just wish that you were holding me near Seven days, it feels like a year You whisper through the line You know I miss you like crazy So baby can you steal a plane A boat, the fastest train You know it just don't feel the same when you're gone [Chorus] 'Cause everytime you go away The sunshine starts to fade Frozen by the hands of time Into a permanent monday Take me back into your arms And don't ever let me go 'Cause when I see you walk through that door I'm not lost anymore I'm home I'm home I won't sleep until you're finally next to me Can't wait to breathe you in Don't wanna waste my time dreaming I just wanna trace your name like A whisper on my skin And never have to say goodbye again [Chorus] 'Cause when I feel you right here close to me Everything is where it's supposed to be Baby [Chorus] Yes I am And I miss you like crazy Back To Top |
| Young and In Love |

I didn't ask your opinion, what you talking 'bout? Too quick to jump to conclusions, 'cause we're hanging out There ain't no wishes, ain't no fuss When it's just you and me, you and me What makes you think that you can know What's gonna stick, what's gonna go So let them pull [Chorus] Let them pull at the seams Don't they know what it means To be young and in love like that Who are they to decide If it's wrong, if it's right To be young and in love like that Like that, like that Like that, like that To be young and in love If people offer up answers, sounds like breaking glass I can't remember the questions we're ever asked Hit the free road lookin' down But you don't bother me (bother me) One of those days when we're old I'll stop and say I told you so So let them pull [Chorus] It don't matter what they say, too late to walk away 'Cause I need him much too strong I've waited for so long To feel all the things that I feel So I gotta get that boy Let them pull [Chorus] Like that, like that Like that, like that To be young and in love Back To Top |
| See My Side |
|
I've been trying for days To think of a way To find the words to make sense Of how we behave This might take a while So please just hear me out We know how things can get crazy When we go ablaze We just get carried away Believe me, I know Don't even say a word Now please just hear me out [Chorus] See my side And I'll see yours better Love me back And I'll love you better Sometimes the stunts that we pull Don't even make sense But I was never the one To feel that resent This ain't 'bout who's to blame So please just hear me out When the scene gets intense It's hard to prevent From going all crazy again Believe me, I know Don't even say a word Now please just hear me out [Chorus x 2] We'll get right back On the right track We'll get right back on We'll get right back on On the right track [Chorus x 2] Back To Top |
| God Loves Ugly |
|
You said that I wasn't pretty So I just believed you And you said that I wasn't special So I lived that way With critical gazes and brutal amazement At how my reflection could be so imperfect With all of my blemishes, how could somebody want me? [Chorus] But God loves ugly He doesn't see the way I see Oh God takes ugly And turns it in to something that is beautiful Apparently I'm beautiful Cause you love me Whoa, oh I tried to clean up the outside All shiny and new Worked over time to thin up and look right But inside I knew That deep in the bottom were secrets I thought I could try to ignore Old ghosts in my corridors Never get tired of haunting the past that's in me [Chorus] Help me believe Why you love me When I know you see You see everything Help me believe Why you love me When I know you see Inside and you still say I'm beautiful You're telling me I'm beautiful Your screaming out I'm so beautiful And I'm finding out I'm beautiful You're making me so beautiful And I can see I'm beautiful Cause you love me Whoa, oh Back To Top |
| This Is My Now |
|
There was a time I packed my dreams away Living in a shell, hiding from myself There was a time When I was so afraid I thought I'd reached the end Baby that was then I am made of more than my yesterdays [Chorus] This is my now And I am breathing in the moment As I look around, I can't believe the love I see My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubt That was then, this is my now I had to decide Was I gonna play it safe Or look somewhere deep inside Try to turn the tide And find the strength to take that step of faith [Chorus] And I have a courage like never before, yeah I've settled for less, but I'm ready for more Ready for more [Chorus] I'm living in the moment As I look around, I can't believe the love I see My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubt That was then, this is my now This is my now Back To Top |
| Worth the Wait |
|
I feel what I've been feeling for you Means I am falling for you Something's opened up inside of me And I dream in shades that only can be The colors of you and me I think we both know what that means I stand inside this promise I've made to myself But I was meant for you [Chorus] If I fall, if I break If I lose myself in someone If I give all I am it'll be with you When I'm ready to take All that you want me to give It will be worth the wait, worth the wait It will be worth the wait My heart, I want to save it for you Don't want it broken into pieces I need myself to be heard And could we Just sit and talk a while Just want to see your smile Feel your sunlight shining over me Oh [Chorus Repeat] Worth all the long nights dreaming of forever Someday we will be together I know, it will have been so worth the wait Please wait for me If I fall, if I break If I lose myself in someone If I give all I am it'll be with you Yeah, yeah When I'm ready to take All that you want me to give It will be worth the wait, worth the wait It will have been so worth the wait I will be worth the wait Back To Top |
| Virginia Is For Lovers |

You became someone so close That person I could trust Why did it end up this way What happened to the both of us I, I'm tearing up inside I'm on a roller coaster ride Thinking of those memories How your touch was so soft Your eyes they were so green I would have never known how much You'd come to mean everything to me [Chorus] Virginia is for lovers And I wonder Where do all the others go When you're heart belongs to another And I'm leaving Virginia is for lovers anyway No matter how long we're apart I find it hard to let go I'm sitting here so restless Time is moving so slow I, I hate that I'm looking back Reminiscing on photographs You were like my other half We were perfect on our own Then everyone came back Got harder to get you alone To see the hurting on my face You were looking the other way [Chorus Repeat] I never got to tell you You walked away, you left me there And you won't change no matter what I do But I still care and I'm still here Virginia is for lovers And I wonder Where do all the others go When you're heart is with another And I'm leaving Virginia is for lovers anyway Back To Top |
| Save Me |
|
I'm all alone tonight No stars are shining on me I'm thinking I'd be alright If somebody would just call me I know that I'm not crazy Everybody must get this way, sometimes So look around for the people in your life that say [Chorus] Save me I need somebody's help here Thought it would be alright but I'm not pulling through on my own Is anyone around who can Save me I'm falling down, it's crazy If this is the pain God gave me I'm cool with that but won't somebody Save me I guess you missed the signs But honey I could never blame you No I don't want you feeling guilty That I keep you in pain too Now I can't hear you when I'm far away, away So maybe you can learn from this And love somebody else someday Cause I'm human after all And I could not catch my fall And nobody ever came around my way To check up on me and see If I was doing alright Nobody came to [Chorus Repeat] Save me from my demons Save me from myself Save me, somebody save me I need someone's help [Chorus Repeat x 2] Back To Top |
| Overcome (Unreleased) |

I thought that I and all my feelings was protecting my heart So I never built anything high enough to fall apart And what I was looking for, didn't know where to start I can't believe this is happening The day I met you I said welcome to the rest of my life Cause you created a new me and all the emptiness died I was afraid to give love another try Now I can't believe this is happening [Chorus] I know that this might get me in trouble But it's time I let my defenses down Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle Oh, I've overcome I've overcome Guess I'm addicted to happiness, I just can't give it up So I decided to give up pride and surrender my trust I've got not choice but to believe in us And finally this is happening [Chorus Repeat] I finally let myself go I let all my guards down Baby I'm yours now You're in control I took the chains of my soul And now I'm in love [Chorus Repeat] I don't care anymore, I've overcome I've overcome Back To Top |
