If I Could Only Fly

Verse 1
Life seems to be passing me by
at every waking moment
Sometimes I feel like I do not exist at all
I waste too much time thinking about yesterday
My mind is cluttered with so many things
I lose track of what I have to do
My heart is racing
I just need a moment to breathe

Verse 2
I'm not even close to being relatively happy
I can't recall when I last smiled
How sad is that?
I'm not even close to being relatively peaceful
I can't recall the last time
I didn't feel angry
I want to let go of these bitter feelings

Bridge
It would be gratifying
If all my worries would cease
It would be wonderful
If I could enjoy life
It would be fulfilling
If I could learn to love myself
It would be great to become the new me

Chorus
If I could only fly
I would fly far, far away
Leave everything behind
That has caused so much pain
I would start a brand new life
Change my name and identity
I would be proud of myself
If I could only fly
Then my dreams would come true

How Could It Be?

Verse 1
We met on a Friday
At the opening of a new club
I saw you, you saw me
We liked what we saw
We started to small talk
Then we began to dance
At closing time I gave you my number
I have been waiting for your call
For a month now

Verse 2
With you, I felt free
Like a bird soaring in the sky
I felt safe enough to fall into your arms
You were mysterious
Like a dream to uncover to unfold
You told me I was so beautiful
I have been waiting for your call
For three months now

Bridge
I felt so close to you
Like we became one
I felt like I truly knew you
I was blind to see the reality around me
I feel head over feet for you
Now my heart is broken

Chorus 1
How could it be?
I thought you were real
I thought we were meant to be
Why did you lie to me?
Why did I believe you?
I should have seen right through
Shame on you, you fooled me once
Shame on me, you fooled me twice

Chorus 2
How could it be?
I thought you were real
I thought we were meant to be
Shame on me

You Can Make It

Verse 1
You can make it if you always work hard
You can make it if you are polite
You can make it without going insane
You can make it if you have common sense
Life is full of surprises
What goes around sometimes comes around

Verse 2
You can make it if you are fair
You can make it if you want to be the mayor
You can make it if you're confident
You can make it if you can't pay the rent
Life is full of surprises
Sometimes you reap what you sow

Bridge
If you follow your heart
You can make it - yes, you can
If you listen to your conscience
You can make it - yes, you can
Life is fill of suprises
Sometimes people wear disguises

Chorus 1
You can make it if you're determined
If you believe in something
Fight for it
If you fall down, pick yourself up
Always trust your intuition

Chorus 2
You can make it if you're determined
If you believe in something
Fight for it
If you fall down, pick yourself up
It's always important to have dignity

Chorus 3
You can make it if you're determined
If you believe in something
Fight for it
If you fall down, pick yourself up
Keep on trying until you succeed

Chorus 4
You can make it if you're determined
If you believe in something
Fight for it

Your Love Amazes Me

Verse 1
You are the love of my life
You are the light in my eyes
Two unified as one
Swearing to never separate
Even when you are so far away
You are always in my heart
Precious memories I will remember
Locked deep in my mind

Verse 2
I am the love of your life
I am the warmth in your heart
Two becoming one
Promising to remain intact
Even when I am so far away
I am always in your heart
Memorable feelings I will cherish
Locked deep in my mind

Verse 3
You are the love of my life
You are the rhythm of my body
Two combined as one
Vowing to never change
Even when you are so far away
You are always in my heart
Rare moments I will appreciate
Locked deep in my mind

Chorus
Your love amazes me
Your love inspires me
Your love protects me
Your love saves me
Your love heals me
Your love amazes me

Hearts

Verse 1
Full of love, full of hate
Full of the ability to change one's fate
Full of joy, full of sorrow
Making us get through tomorrow
Full of gratitude, full of attitude
Sometimes filling us up like food

Verse 2
Full of stillness, full of understanding
The knowledge to be better
Full of selfishness, full of apathy
The desire to be cruel
Full of colour, full of expression
The power to be real

Bridge
Sometimes hearts are burdens inside of us
Making things harder for us
Making us feel low
But where would we be
If we didn't have hearts to begin with
We would be nowhere
We would have nothing to live for

Chorus
If hearts were invincible
Then I would do whatever I pleased
If hearts were invincible
Then we'd all be powerful
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I would have less worries in life
I would be a stronger man
If hearts never existed
I wouldn't be able to feel at all

Plenty

Verse 1
I've never been homeless
I've always had a roof over my head
I attended private school
And by the time I became an adult
I owned my own car

Verse 2
I organize social functions
Because it's expected of me
Many people would not survive
If they lived in my society

Verse 3
I earn a 100K per year
I have a housekeeper
My security system is an A+
My investments are performing well

Chorus 1
I have plenty
But I still want more
There is nothing wrong with me
This is what I live for

Chorus 2
I have plenty
Many things that I do not need
There is nothing wrong with me
If you knew me, you would agree

Don't Want To Be Alone

Verse 1
I don't want to be alone
Because I get scared
I don't know what could happen
If you're not near
I turn all the lights on
I lock the door and windows
I constantly look over my shoulder
To see of someone's there
When I lay in bed
I have trouble falling asleep

Verse 2
Every thought I think of is about you
And things we used to do
Sometimes they make me smile
But usually I start to cry
I feel so misunderstood
If I could reach you I would
Whenever it rains
I feel the intensity of my pain

Bridge
Yesterday I cried
Today I will do the same
Bit by bit life is becoming mundane
What I fear the most is making me insane
I can't get rid of it
It's like a stain
I don't have anything to gain
By looking for someone to blame
That is so lame

Chorus 1
I don't want to be alone
When you're gone, I'm sad without you
Come back to me, come back to me
Right in your arms is where I should always be
They say nothing lasts forever
But I haven't seen you in a long time
Come back to me, come back to me
Right beside you is where I should always be

Chorus 2
I don't want to be alone
I get sad when I'm on my own
Come back to me, come back to me
Right in your arms is where I should always be
They say nothing lasts forever
When I think about it, that's untrue
Come back to me, come back to me
Right beside you is where I should always be

Pieces of You

Verse 1
You loved me more than you loved yourself
You gave me everything you had
I was cared for
I felt safe, felt close to you
You promised me many things
Then you broke away from me

Verse 2
I had to prove my love and devotion for you
I lied, I stole, I cheated
I would have done much more
You were the only one who looked inside me
And knew that I was lonely
I lived for you
I would have died for you

Bridge
Your hatred, your denial
Your frustration, your anger
Your arrogance, your attitude
It has all been rejected by me

Chorus
Pieces of you surround me
I'm trying to break through
But you're stronger than my will
I won't give up

The One Thing

Verse 1
When I saw you
I was afraid to meet you
I quickly overcame my fear
And approached you
But then I was afraid to know you
I quickly overcame my fear
And liked you

Verse 2
After hitting things off
I didn't want the night to end
I couldn't go my separate way
And leave you behind
So we walked around
Holding each others hand
I gazed into your eyes
I saw the love within you

Verse 3
When it came time to saying goodbye
I was afraid to, I began to cry
I saw my future, it lied in you
All the happiness and joy
Was what I was about to lose

Chorus 1
The one thing I want is you and only you
The one thing I need is you and only you
The one thing I gotta have is you and only you
The one thing I'm dying for is you and only you

Chorus 2
The one thing I want is you and only you
The one thing I need is you and only you
The one thing I gotta have is you

In Pieces

Verse 1
I gave you my heart to hold
Not to have
You treated me as if I was your possession
To you I was your puppet
You pulled my strings
You made me do things
I thought I could never do
I feel so ashamed

Verse 2
I gave myself to you with one condition
That you promised to love me, to care for me
You vowed to do just that
Then suddenly you went back on your word
I should have known
That you were as reliable as a snake

Bridge
I believed everything you told me
I was so gullible
I let you into my life
I was so irresponsible
I loved you, I truly did
I was so desperate
To feel like I mattered to somebody else

Chorus 1
I'm in pieces
A thousand different ones scattered before me
I'm trying to put myself back together
But it's not an easy task

Chorus 2
I'm in pieces
A thousand different ones scattered before you
I'm trying to put myself back together
But it's not an easy task

Chorus 3

I'm trying to put myself back together
But it's not an easy task

Home

Verse 1
Yesterday I cried
I was drowning in self-pity
The trail of tears led me back to you
We grew apart, we hurt each other
Our bodies were covered in scars
Now that time has passed
We have reconciled

Verse 2
We spent too much time away from each other
It's like we're meeting for the first time
I love the way I feel
When I am with you
There are no pretences
Everything is out in the open
I listen to you wherever you speak
We agree to disagree
Our love is completely real

Chorus 1
I am home, you are home
Where we are is where we belong
We turned this house into a home
A home full of love

Chorus 2
I am home, you are home
Where we are is where we belong
We turned this house into a home
This home is our haven from the world
It's a home full of love
It's a home full of peace
I am home, you are home
This is where we shall always live

Giving Myself To You

Verse 1
I'm giving myself to you

I'm giving myself to you
Every single part of me
There's a longing in my heart to be loved
This burning desire will not put itself out

Verse 2
I'm giving myself to you

Wondering if you'll do the same

Praying that you'll do the same
I'm giving myself to you
Because I love you

Louder Than Words

Verse 1
One day you told me that you loved me
The next day I saw you with someone else
He was touching you
Staring deep into your eyes
He gave you a present
You looked very surprised

Verse 2
Yesterday you said you were going out
To meet friends you hadn't seen in awhile
So I followed you to see if it was true
As I suspected, you did not tell me the truth

Verse 3
As I was driving back home
Feelings of anger began to surface
I am very disappointed in you
When you get back
I don't know what I will do

Chorus 1
Your actions speak louder than words
You say one thing but do something else
Your actions speak louder than words
You are inconsistent
You are a walking contradiction

Chorus 2
Your actions speak louder than words
You say one thing but do something else
Your actions speak louder than words
You are inconsistent
You played me like a fiddle

Not Like Other Girls

Verse 1
You are constantly inconsistent
You are cheerfully morbid
You are quietly loud
You are seriously joking
Your differences make you stand out from the rest

Verse 2
You are simply confusing
You are normally strange
You are ingeniously smart
You are harmlessly dangerous
You are deeply shallow
You are entirely empty
Your differences make you stand out from the rest

Bridge
You are fiercely friendly
You are insensibly caring
You are severely lenient
You are prominently unknown

Chorus 1
You are not like other girls
You really amaze me
You are not like other girls
You are a bit crazy

Come A Little Closer

Verse 1
I have admired you from a distance
Ever since the day you caught my attention
My heart began to swell with joy
My face lit up like the sun

Verse 2
When I am cold, I think of you
And feel warmth
When I am sad, I think of you
And the sweet feeling of love fills the emptiness
Inside of my heart

Bridge
I have a crush on you
It's full of potential
It's from the inside
It's from the outside
This feeling I have is strong
I'm hoping that nothing could go wrong

Chorus
Come a little closer
Be by my side
Come a little closer
There is no reason to hide
I don't know who you are
But I'd like to get to know you better
Come a little closer
Before I lose interest

This Girl's In Love With You

Verse 1
She spies on you, follows you around
Knows your phone number by heart
She waits by your door
Visits you at work
She even looks inside your mailbox
She has fallen in love with you
Now, what are you going to do?
Will you tell her you're interested
Or will you tell her the feeling's not mutual?

Verse 2
She takes chances to see you every day
She's always around
Even when you don't notice
She acts like a fly on your wall

Bridge 1
Sooner or later
You will have to face her
And when you do, you better be prepared

Bridge 2
Sooner or later
you will have to face her
And when you do, you better watch out

Chorus 1
This girl's in love with you
She's crazy for you
You're the one that she wants
This girl is persistent and unavoidable
She's obsessed with you
You're everything she wants
You're everything she needs
She will not stop until she has you in her arms
She will do whatever it takes to have you
This girl's in love with you

Chorus 2

Now That Everything's Been Said

Verse 1
I don't like it when you try to change who I am
I like myself
Why do you feel the need to fix something that isn't broken
Leave it alone

Verse 2
I don't like it when you read my mail
Because that's an invasion of my privacy
Why do you feel the need
To mess around with things that aren't yours

Bridge 1
You whine about little things
When you start to talk
You go on and on
I just want you to shut up

Bridge 2
You whine about little things
When you start to talk
You go on and on
That makes me go crazy

Bridge 3
You whine about little things
When you start to talk
You go on and on
And there's no end in sight

Chorus 1
Now that everything's been said
What are you going to do?
Will you change your ways
Or will you keep acting the same
If this continues, I will have no choice
But to move out

Dying To Win

Verse 1
I would do anything
Just to win first place
I would say anything
Just to save face
I haven't been strong enough
To make my own mark
That is why I am still stuck in the dark

Verse 2
I am at my best
When I'm under pressure
I thrive on the intensity of the moment
Using time wisely is crucial
A lost second could cost me a victory

Bridge 1
I will seize upon any moment
That may come my way
I will not let it slip away

Bridge 2
Knowing what to do
Is as important as staying focused
But I also need to have confidence

Bridge 3
I will not rest
Until I achieved my goal
Perseverance ultimately leads to success
I will not die as a loser

Chorus 1
I am dying to win at any cost
For once, I would like to be the victor
I am dying to win
I've never wanted anything so badly before

Chorus 1
I am dying to win at any cost
For once, I would like to be the victor
I am dying to win
I've never wanted anything so badly before
I am dying to win at any cost

Time is always of the essence
I am dying to win at any cost
Deep within me I feel like I'm lost
I am dying to win
Sooner or later, I guess I will

Never Home

Verse
When I awake in the morning
I turn around to see if you're there
But you're not
I wonder where you could have spent the night
That thought stays with me all day
You don't even call
You don't send me an email
You never stop by to see how I'm doing
I'm starting to think you don't about me anymore
That you have abandoned me

Chorus 1
You're never home, you're always gone
I'm alone
I can't live another day without you
You're never home, you're always gone
I'm alone
This is clearly not what I expected

Chorus 2
You're never home, you're always gone
I'm alone
I can't live another day without you
You're never home, you're always gone
This is clearly not what I expected
Come back to me

Chorus 3

You're never home, you're always gone
I'm alone
Nothing ever changes in my life

It's A Beautiful Day

Why can't I be happy for once?
Why can't I let go of my anger?

There You Go Again

Verse 1
There you go again
Walking around with your arrogance
To many you seem tough and bold
You came out of nowhere
From a place far away
Now everywhere I go, I see your face

Verse 2
I'm impressed by the number of supporters you have
I've never seen that type of following
The kind that doesn't back down
From pressure placed on them
Criticism only makes them more loyal

Bridge
Are you able to stand firm against the commander-in-chief?
Are you able to make the country much safer?
Are you able to accelerate the economy?
Are you really electable?

Chorus 1
There you go again
Shooting from the hip
Not thinking about what you say
Your words are rarely concise
Your messages are clearer
There you go again

Chorus 2
There you go again
Shooting from the hip
Not thinking about what you say
Your words are rarely concise
Your messages are clearer
You're the man to beat

Chorus 3
There you go again
Shooting from the hip
Not thinking about what you say
Your words are rarely concise
Your image has been tainted

Chorus 4
There you go again
Shooting from the hip
Not thinking about what you say
Your words are rarely concise
Some say you will melt under pressure
The countdown is on
The race is far from over
Not a single vote has been cast
But there are many doubts about you
You say you're a better leader
Than the man you want to replace
Many believe you
Many more still have reservations

Pack of Lies

Verse 1
You said that you would give everyone a tax cut
The middle class is still waiting
For what they've been promised
Why did the rich receive more money than the poor?
The water supply is dirtier than it's ever been
The cost of living is increasing
While the standard of living is slowly decreasing

Verse 2
You said that you'd be a compassionate and strong leader
By leading the nation into a promising future
Many retirees worry about their grandchildren
Because they're not sure if world affairs will ever improve
The cost of dissenting is increasing
While the standard of democracy is slowly eroding

Bridge
The level of hypocrisy has increased
The system is failing
The cost of telling the truth is increasing
Lying is the only way to stay in power
A movement has already begun
I hope that everyone sees you
For who you truly are

Chorus 1
Everything you say - pack of lies
Everything you do is only for your benefit and your cronies
Children are dying, their parents are crying
You have turned your back
Against the people you said that you'd protect

Chorus 2
Everything you say - pack of lies
Everything you do is only for your benefit and your cronies
Children are dying, their parents are crying
You are thumbing your nose at many people who voted for you

The Name of The Game (2004 Version)

Verse 1
Tell me right now
What is the name of the game
You have been playing
It's sickening, it's annoying
It's like I don't know who you are anymore
When I look in your eyes, there is nothing there
When I speak to you
It's like you don't even care
Sometimes I'm afraid to be alone with you
Because I don't know what you would do

Verse 2
You have the potential to deny
Many people from living their lives
If you do, that will be unforgivable
But more importantly, it is erasable

Bridge 1
You are a different person
I thought that I could love you
And you could love me
At this moment in time, that's an impossibility

Bridge 2
You need to seek help right away
Everyone's safety is at risk
You need to control your anger
If you don't, it will take hold of you

Bridge 3
This situation that you are in is serious
Lately, you've been acting like you're delirious
I don't know what the future holds
If you understand me, you'll do what you're told

Chorus 1
What is the name of the game
You have been playing
It has made you insane
You are a walking time bomb
Who is capable of mass destruction

Chorus 2
What is the name of the game
You have been playing
It has made you insane
You are a walking time bomb
Who is capable of mass destruction
What is the name of the game
You have been playing
It has made you insane
You have nothing at all to gain

By Request

Verse 1
Please play my favourite song
I love it so much
It puts me in a good mood
I cannot get through the day without hearing it
I need it right now
Do not deny me of the pleasure the tune brings
Listening to it is the best moment of the day

Verse 2
When I hear the song
I turn the volume all the way up
The rhythm dances throughout my body
I just can't stand still
Fighting the feeling is a waste of time
Because, because, because, because I always lose
I give in to the power the song has over me

Bridge
Hey, DJ - yeah
Can you do me a favour? - what's that?
Play my favourite song
Pretty please, play my song, play it
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay - I will play it
Thanks!
Here it is, here it is, here it is, here it is by request
The song that you love to hear
Turn the volume all the way up
Here it is, here it is, here it is, here it is by request
Here it is, here it is, here it is, here it is by request

Chorus
Here it is, by request (4x)

Sugar

Verse 1
Sugar, you're the sweetest thing I know
Sometimes it's a little too much for me
But right now I want to indulge in some fun
We'll have a good time if you join me

Verse 2
Sugar, I do't have any plans for some time
You have no reason to go away
You will get my undivided attention
It's hard for me to look away from you

Bridge 1
Sugar, I want you
Like I've never wanted anything in my life
You cause my heart to beat
You cause my lungs to breathe
I go crazy just to have a taste of your sugar

Bridge 2
Sugar, you look so beautiful
You put me in a good mood
Sugar, you have no clue
As to how I feel about you

Bridge 3
Sugar, I want you
Like I've never wanted anything in my life
I think that I am addicted to you
If I live without you
I will go through withdrawal

Chorus
I can't get you off my mind
You have infected my memory
I see you, I hear you, I feel you
I just gotta have you right away
I won't put it off for another day
Everywhere I go, I smell you
I want to taste you so badly

All I Need Is You

Verse 1
I have watched caterpillars turn into butterflies
They become beautiful, their colours stand out
They spread their wings
And fly abandonedly into the sun
You have changed me
Into someone I thought I could never be
You have lifted me up

Verse 2
You have shown me that I'm beautiful inside and out
You have taught me to have faith in myself at all times
You have given me the power to heal the pain I felt
But I truly feel that if you leave
I won't be able to carry on without you

Bridge
Like water, I need you to purify me
Like food, I need you to nourish me
Like knowledge, I need you to guide me
Like hope, I need you to provide optimism
Like a friend, I need you to be there for me

Chorus 1
All I need is you - please don't go
Stay by my side until I say so
I do not want to be alone
If you're gone and never return
I will not get a chance to learn
About life and love and other important things

Chorus 2
All I need is you - please don't go
Stay by my side until I say so
I do not want to be alone
If you're gone and never return
I will not get a chance to learn
About life and love and other important things
There are so many reasons for you to stay
All I need is you every day

Head To The Sky

Verse 1
Don't you ever stop dreaming
Keep on wishing
One of these days, your prayers will be answered
Some days like will not make sense
Other days, things will feel just right

Verse 2
Things will not go your way all the time
Don't cry, don't sigh
Things will come around
Take a moment to breathe, relax your mind
Try to always be kind

Bridge 1
Optimism goes a long way
There are so many possibilities
Never say never, don't give up
Anything can happen

Bridge 2
Keep your feet on the ground
Don't lose focus of what's important in life
Be honest with yourself
Don't be afraid to make a mistake
If at first you don't succeed, try again
This life is beautiful
Open your eyes and you will see

Chorus
Hold your head to the sky
If you believe you can fly
Then you'll do just that
Life is what you make it to be

Silent Hearts

Verse 1
I love you but I don't tell you
I assumed you already knew
I care for you but I rarely show you
It's because I don't know how
You love me but you don't tell me
You assumed I already knew
You care for me but you rarely show me
It's because you're afraid to

Verse 2
I need you, but I don't tell you
I assumed you already knew
I believe in you but I rarely show you
It's because I don't know how
You need me but you don't tell me
You assumed I already knew
You believe in me but you rarely show me
It's because you don't have faith in yourself

Bridge
We are just wasting time
We're not letting each other know how we feel
What I say to you is meaningless
What you say to me is unimportant

Chorus 1
My heart has been silent to you
When it speaks, the message doesn't go through
Things get complicated and out of control
I'm a creature of habit
It's hard for me to change even when I try

Chorus 2
You're heart has been silent to me
When it speaks, the message doesn't go through
Things get complicated and out of control
You're a creature of habit
It's hard for you to change even when you try

Our Song

Verse 1
Our song is being played
So take my hand
Let me hold you as we dance
When I look into your eyes
I see the love I have for you
And the love you have for me

Verse 2
Our song is being played
I just can't sit and listen to it
I must dance
This moment is perfect because you are in my arms
I would not change a single thing
Our song is as beautiful as you are

Bridge
Our song is being played
This moment is special
It feels to me like time is standing still
As you and I are dancing
When the song comes to an end
I will still be with you
I will love you more than I ever have

Chorus 1
Our song is being played
Let's relive all the memories of yesterday
And the day we fell in love

Chorus 2
Our song is being played
Let's relive all the memories of yesterday
And the day we fell in love
The only person that matters to me is you
I could not ask for anything more
Your love has permanently filled a hole in my heart
Your love makes me live every day

Holiday For You

Verse 1
Sometimes you drive me crazy
You drive me off the wall
That's when I can't take it anymore
I start to throw things at you
I am yelling at you
That's when I want you out of my sight
Deep down inside I know I love you
I'll be leaving you
I won't be coming back soon

Verse 2
We argue a lot
We rarely agree
Sometimes I feel you don't listen to me
We fight every battle that comes our way
Not knowing we must choose
The ones that are worthwhile
Deep down inside I know you love me
I'll be leaving you
I won't be coming back soon

Bridge
Spending time away from you
Is the smartest thing I've done in awhile
I am putting my mind on hold
I should have done this a long time ago

Chorus
I am taking a holiday from you
I need to spend time on my own
I do not know when I will be returning
So don't sit around and wait for me

This Heart of Mine

Verse 1
Most of the time, you are kind and funny
But the other times, I feel uncomfortable around you
You become erratic and irrational
I am the one who has to calm you down
Your behaviour is unpredictable
and that worries me the most

Verse 2
You try to place me in a box
You try to have me all figured out
But you haven't the slightest clue
As to who I really am
If you would listen to whatever I said
Then you would get to know me
But you think you are right all the time
And that you know what's best for me

Bridge 1
The love that you have for me is a different kind
I just cannot accept it
I don't have the same feelings that you have for me
I have a different point of view
One that doesn't include you

Bridge 2
I know what I want
And you are not it
I feel restrained when I am with you
You are too complicated for me to handle
I don't want to be with you

Chorus 1
This heart of mine is not strong enough
For your love because it's the killing kind
This heart of mine is not strong enough
For your love because it's the choking kind

Chorus 2
This heart of mine is not strong enough
For your love because it's the exhausting kind
This heart of mine is not strong enough
For your love because it's the scary kind

My Romance

Verse 1
I never felt that I was beautiful
I never thought that I was wonderful
I felt that I was ugly
I thought that I was boring
Since you came into my life
Everything just seems so right
It's a feeling I always want to keep
Solace and peace

Verse 2
I know that I have nothing to fear
Because you are always near
I can tell you anything
I can be myself in front of you
The more I think about it
The harder it is to describe it
The way that you cherish me
And the way you look at me

Bridge
A love so strong
I'm praying nothing could go wrong
And I feel that nothing ever will
Bliss no longer eludes me
It is a part of me forevermore
I cannot get up
Because I am drunk with joy

Chorus 1
My romance is like a fairy tale to me
I cannot believe that it is real
Love is what I can finally feel
My romance is like a dream to me
There are many sweet things I can see
Love is what I can finally feel

Chorus 2
My romance is like a fairy tale to me
I cannot believe that it is real
Love is what I can finally feel

Can't Keep It To Myself

Verse 1
Yesterday I saw something
Something that was very shocking
I still cannot believe it myself

Verse 2
This new discovery is bigger than me
Why was I the one to stumble upon it?
Either way, the world will know about it

Verse 3
The media will jump on this story
Like a tiger attacking its prey
They will tear it apart for all to see
Some might say that it does not exist
While others will accept what they see as proof

Chorus 1
I can't keep it to myself
I have to tell everyone I know
And when they hear it
They will not believe it

Chorus 2
I can't keep it to myself
I have to get it off of my chest
It doesn't belong to me
It's not mine to keep

Outro
Yesterday I saw something
This new discovery is bigger than me
The media will jump on this story

In America

Verse 1
Dissenters shall be punished
If they disagree with the president
There is a price to pay
If you don't toe the line
The cost could be minor or very expensive
But that doesn't matter much
Because you are paying for something
That should be free

Verse 2
Some liberals think the country
Thinks the way they do
From time to time
They experience a rude awakening
Conservatives are not better
Not by a long shot
They divide voters with wedge issues
Like abortion, guns and God

Bridge 1
Hypocrites say they believe in the Constitution
Then they turn around and deceive the public
Many are afraid to stand up against them
In fear of being unpatriotic

Bridge 2
Real matters are swept under the rug
The truth is always distorted
A president can be impeached
For lying about sex, not about a war

Bridge 3
God forbid if you ever encounter the right-wing machine
They make examples out of their opponents

Chorus 1
In America
You can't do whatever you want to do
You will be arrested
You can't say what you want to say
Political correctness gets in the way
We are all to blame

Chorus 2
In America
You can't do whatever you want to do
You will be arrested
You can't say what you want to say
Political correctness gets in the way
We are all to blame
Remember what democracy means
Government of, for and by the people

Farewell

Verse 1
Farewell, goodbye
I'm leaving to live my life
I've been in the spotlight
Ever since I was a child

Verse 2
I made friends, I made enemies
I was the best I could be
Even when I was tired
I put on a brave face and gave my all

Verse 3
I was a loser, I was a winner
Like everyone else, I am a sinner
I've made my share of mistakes
But I took the time to learn from them

Verse 4
I've been up, I've been down
Now I'm heading homeward bound
I've been away for such a long time
I can't wait until I return

Chorus
Farewell, goodbye
I'm going away, starting today
Farewell, goodbye
To all my fans: Please, do not cry

I Only Have Eyes For You

Verse 1
Things happened quickly in the span of two months
Then they ended abruptly
I had fallen for you during that time
You were everything I was looking for
Intelligent, outgoing and beautiful
We also shared similar interests
Even though we belonged to different generations
We instantly connected
I was opening myself up to you
For a while, you did the same thing too

Verse 2
When I was seeing you
I knew many aspects of your life
Since you were a child in rural Manitoba
And as a college student in Minneapolis, Minnesota, U.S.A.
When you were laid off from your job
I spent nearly two days with you
Knowing that you needed a friend by your side
And when you just wanted to hang out, I was there
Supplying laughter and a warm smile
So many dinners, quick and delicious
Many memories, joyous and hurtful

Chorus 1
Oh no, what went wrong?
I thought that we had something going on
Give me a reason to believe
That things will work out in the end between you and I
Oh oh, ooh ooh
I want to be your lover
I only have eyes for you

Chorus 2
Oh no, what went wrong?
I now feel that you were leading me on
Giving up on you is what I won't do
That is the same way of saying
I do no want to be with you
Oh oh but I do
I realized that I fell in love with you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Show that you love me too

The Wound And The Bow

Verse 1
Take one day at a time
It's not a sprint, it's a marathon
Although days pass quickly
What was still is
Remembering everything would be unbearable
Remembering nothing is impossible
Some thoughts are unforgettable
They're embedded in the mind
When they resurface in a conscious state
Past becomes present

Bridge 1
Back, to the start, once again
Trying, to learn how to live, in changing times

Verse 2
Once fear is realized
It's difficult to be bold
Surrendering is effortless
The head and eyes face the ground
If a challenge occurs and the result is a loss
Then breaking down even further can destroy the soul
A deterrent to overcoming despair
Is knowing how harsh things can be
It's as powerful as a raging storm
Unforgiving, unrelenting

Bridge 2
Broken, always pierced, to the core
Struggling, to forgive, in changing times

Bridge 3
Rarely alone, solitude is elusive
Stifling, without mercy, in changing times
Back, to the start, once again
Broken, always pierced, to the core

Chorus
The wound and the bow
What's in me and what you held
The wound and the bow
What surrounds me and what reigns supreme
The wound and the bow
What's hidden and never healed
The wound and the bow
What's constricting and what's oppressive
