Ordinary Day
Just a day,
Just an ordinary
day.
Just trying to get by.
Just a boy,
Just an ordinary boy.
But he
was looking to the sky.
And as he asked if I would come along
I started to
realize
That everyday he finds
Just what he's looking for,
Like a
shooting star he shines.
He said take my hand,
Live while you
can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
And
as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words
Although they did not feel
For I felt
what I had not felt before
And you'd swear those words could heal.
And as
I looked up into those eyes
His vision borrows mine.
And I know he's no
stranger,
For I feel I've held him for all of time.
And he said take
my hand,
Live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the
palm of your hand
In the palm of your hand.
Please come with
me,
See what I see.
Touch the stars for time will not flee.
Time will
not flee.
Can you see?
Just a dream, just an ordinary dream.
As I
wake in bed
And the boy, that ordinary boy
Or was it all in my
head?
Did he asked if I would come along
It all seemed so real.
But as
I looked to the door,
I saw that boy standing there with a deal.
And
he said take my hand,
Live while you can,
Don't you see all your dreams
lie right in the palm of your hand
In the palm of your hand,
In the palm
of your hand.
Just a day, just an ordinary day
Just trying to get
by.
Just a boy,
Just an ordinary boy.
But he was looking to the
sky.
Unsung
If only I could get into that corner of your
head
where things finally match and meet the standards that you set
oh how
I wish I was the treasure that you were lookin' for
bet I would feel better
if only I could find the door
I am cryin'
you aren't tryin'
I am
melting away
I wait for the words on the tip of your tongue
I'm only
as good as the last one
well you decide and I abide as my song goes
unsung
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Things are goin' crazy and
I'm not sure who to blame
everything is changing and I do not feel the
same
I'm slippin' through the cracks of floors I thought that were
strong
I'm tryin' to find a place where I can feel like I belong
Well,
I am cryin'
you aren't tryin'
I am melting away
I wait for the
words on the tip of your tongue
I'm only as good as the last one
well you
decide and I abide as my song goes unsung
yeah, yeah, yeah
as my song
goes unsung
yeah, yeah, yeah
If I could be the lesson that you learn,
you learn if only
I could be the last one that love burns, it burns
If I
could be the lesson that you learn, you learn if only
I could be the last one
that love burns, it burns...yeah, yeah
If only I could get into that
corner of your head
where things finally match and meet the standards that
you set
oh how I wish I was the treasure that you were lookin' for
bet I
would feel better if only I could find the door
Well, I am cryin'
you
aren't tryin'
and (now)I am melting away
(yeah, yeah)
I wait for
the words on the tip of your tongue
I'm only as good as the last one
well
you decide and I abide as my song goes unsung
yeah, yeah
(well you
decide and i abide,)
as my song goes unsung
yeah, yeah, yeah
as my
song goes unsung
yeah, yeah, yeah
A Thousand Miles
Making my way downtown
Walking
fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just
making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd
And I need you
And
I miss you
And now I wonder....
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do
you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand
miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight
It's always times like
these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of
me
'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in
your
Precious memories
'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now
I wonder....
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think
time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I
could
Just see you
Tonight
And I, I
Don't want to let you
know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I,
I
Don't....
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces
pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my
way
Making a way
Through the crowd
And I still need you
And I
still miss you
And now I wonder....
If I could fall
Into the
sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A
thousand miles
If I could
Just see you...
If I could fall
Into
the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd
walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
If I could
Just
hold you
Tonight
Pretty Baby
You light me up and then I fall for
you
You lay me down and then I call for you
Stumbling on reasons that are
far and few
I'd let it all come down and then some for you
Pretty baby
don't you leave me
I have been saving smiles for you
Pretty baby why can't
you see
You're the one that I belong to
I'll be the embrace that keeps you
warm
For you're the sun that breaks the storm
I'll be alright and I'll
sleep sound
As long as you keep comin' around, oh pretty baby
And I
know things can't last forever
But there are lessons that you'll never
learn
Oh just the scent of you it makes me hurt
So how's it you that makes
me better
Pretty baby don't you leave me
I have been saving smiles for
you
Pretty baby why can't you see
You're the one that I belong to
I'll
be the embrace that keeps you warm
For you're the sun that breaks the
storm
I'll be alright and I'll sleep sound
As long as you keep comin'
around, oh pretty baby
Why can't you hold me and never let go
When you
touch me it is me that you own
Pretty baby oh the place that you hold in my
heart
Would you break it apart again... oh pretty baby
Pretty baby
don't you leave me
I have been saving smiles for you
Pretty baby why can't
you see
You're the one that I belong to
I'll be the embrace that keeps you
warm
For you're the sun that breaks the storm
I'll be alright and I'll
sleep sound
As long as you keep comin' around, oh pretty baby
Pretty
baby, why can't you see
Pretty baby, don't you leave me
Pretty baby, why
can't you see
Pretty baby, don't you leave me,
Pretty Baby
My Pretty
Baby
My Pretty Baby
Don't you leave me
Rinse
She'd do anything to sparkle in his eye
She
would suffer, she would fight, and compromise
She's been wishin' on the stars
that shine so bright
For answers to the questions that will haunt her
tonight
She must rinse this all away
She can't hold him this
way
She must rinse this all away
She can't love him this way
How
she'd be soothed, how she'd be saved if he could see
She needs to be held in
his arms to be free
But everything happens for reasons that she will never
understand
'til she knows the heart of a woman will never be found in the
arms of a man
And if she runs away she fears she won't be
followed
What could be the worse than leaving something behind
And as the
depth of oceans slowly become shallow
It's loneliness she finds...
If only
he was mine
She'd do anything to sparkle in his eye
She would suffer,
she would fight, and compromise
She's been wishin' on the stars that shine so
bright
For answers to the questions that will haunt her tonight
She
must rinse him
She must rinse him
She can't rinse him
She can't rinse
him
She can't, she won't, she must rinse him
She can't, she won't, she
must rinse him
She must rinse this all away
She can't hold him this
way
She must rinse this all away
She can't love him this way
Sway
My heart, your hands, gentle my friend
break
me neatly, numb me sweetly
Say you would, say you could
say you'd come
and stop the rain
say you'd try and hold me tight
and you just give me
away
make me high on lullabies
a melody for me to sway
say you would,
say you could
and you don't do anything
Come down heavy, try and
steady
precious ladies, love you, love me...
Hold my head up to the
lies that you feed me
I'll fall under the spell you cast as you let me
down
Say you would, say you could
say you'd come and stop the
rain
say you'd try and hold me tight
and you just give me away
make me
high on lullabies
a melody for me to sway
make me high on lullabies a
melody for me to sway
Paradise
Once upon a year gone by
she saw herself
give in
every time she closed her eyes
she saw what could have
been
well nothing hurts and nothing bleeds
when covers tucked in
tight
funny when the bottom drops
how she forgets to fight... to
fight
And it's one more day in paradise
one more day in
paradise
As darkness quickly steals the light
that shined within her
eyes
she slowly swallows all her fear
and soothes her mind with
lies
well all she wants and all she needs
are reasons to survive
a day
in which the sun will take
her artificial light... her light
And it's
one more day in paradise
one more day in paradise
it's one more day in
paradise
one last chance to feel alright... alright
Don't pretend to
hold it in just let it out
don't pretend to hold it in just push it
out
don't you try to hold it in just let it out and
don't you try to hold
it in you hold it in
And it's one more day in paradise
one more day in
paradise
it's one more day in paradise
one last chance to feel alright...
alright
Once upon a year gone by
she saw herself give in
every time
she closed her eyes
she saw what could have been
Prince
Willing and able to run
I am
willing and
able I'm able to come
And if I want for you now
would you
come
would you run
would you bring it back around
oh, baby
how
If it all went away
nothin' left to say
would you fight it or
would you lay down
at the hand of your God could you see the light
oh my
prince can't you see what's been found
Willing and able to run
willing
and able to come
I am willing, I'm willing
Willing and able to
run
I am
willing and able I'm able to come
Paint It Black
I see a red door and I want it painted
black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness
goes
I see a line of cars and they are painted black
With flowers and
my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly
look away
Like a new born baby it just happens every day
I look inside
myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it's heading into
black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not
easy facing up when your whole world is black
I wanna see it painted
painted, painted black, oh baby
I wanna see it painted painted, painted
black, oh baby
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could
not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the
setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I
wanna see it painted, painted black, oh
Black as night, black as coal
I
wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
Painted, painted, painted black oh
baby
Painted painted, painted black
Wanted
I have wandered far and wide
for something
real something to die for
but I have found you and you do not see
all that
is me all that is true
I am more than you will see,
I am more than you
will need,
I am more than you will see,
more than wanted
As you
float the flimsy surface
you should know life lies beneath it
don't
pretend you feel what I feel for you
live illusion and i am real
I
know, I know you like the way
you feel when I play
I know, I know you
don't really
hear what I say
I know, I know you are waiting
for
something to raid
I know, I know you wish you could be
more than you
say
I have wandered far and wide
for something real something to die
for
but I have found you and you do not see
all that is me all that is
true and
More than you'll love, more than you'll hate,
more than
you'll hold, more than wanted
more than you'll crave, more than you'll
cherish,
more than you'll have, more than wanted
Twilight
I was stained, with a role, in a day not my
own
But as you walked into my life you showed what needed to be shown
And I always knew, what was right I just didn't know that I might
Peel
away and choose to see with such a different sight
And I will never see
the sky the same way and
I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday and
I
will never cease to fly if held down and
I will always reach too high cause
I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight
Never cared never wanted
Never
sought to see what flaunted
So on purpose so in my face Couldn't see beyond
my own place
And it was so easy not to behold what I could hold
But you
taught me I could change Whatever came within these shallow days
And I
will never see the sky the same way and
I will learn to say good-bye to
yesterday and
I will never cease to fly if held down and
I will always
reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen
As the sun shines through
it pushes away and pushes ahead
It fills the warmth of blue and leaves a
chill instead and
I didn't know that I could be so blind to all that is so
real
But as illusion dies I see there is so much to be revealed
And
I will never see the sky the same way and
I will learn to say good-bye to
yesterday and
I will never cease to fly if held down and
I will always
reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight
I was stained,
by a role, in a day not my own
But as you walked into my life you showed
what needed to be shown
And I always knew, what was right
I just didn't
know that I might
Peel away and choose to see with such a different sight
And I will never see the sky the same way and
I will learn to say
good-bye to yesterday and
I will never cease to fly if held down and
I
will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight...
