What I Had

Write this down but not in stone
I feel the worst is coming and I can’t do it alone
Retrace the steps that you laid down
Maybe I can do it this time without a sound
Look into your broken heart
The missing gears will tell the tale of where to start
To think that I had played the fool
Now I know just how to leave you behind
And I know she’s not something more than in my head
And I know she’s not something more inside my head
And I know she’s not something more than in my bed
And I know she’s not something more than what I had
Have you had a change to breathe?
The thought I was all you needed to believe…
Now you see that I’m far gone
And nowhere near the places you would see me around
It’s not a matter of one’s fault
I’ve simply learned to leave you before it all starts
And I know she’s not something more than in my head
And I know she’s not something more inside my head
And I know she’s not something more than in my bed
And I know she’s not something more than what I had

This Girl

Is it something to remember or is it something to wash away
Sometimes I wish I would have known your name
So I could get back to the days when I was chasing you around
I smile every time when I see you turn around
You’re the kind of girl that can make a man change his ways
From the uptown streets to the cabs that I’m chasing
You’re the one thing that keeps my heart racing
I’m getting kinda slow from wondering where you go
Why can’t you see?
I’d do anything for one shot; I’d give it all I got
It’s worth all the time in the world to let you know you’re the only one girl
It’ll start with a table for you, then I love you
Yes it’s true, you are the one for me and now I see I wanted this all along
I can’t believe this girl, the girl that I wanted
She’s all mine, look where we started
I just can’t go a day without hearing your voice say
“You are my guy, you are my man, you are my love, you are my friend”
Just some of those things this girl says to me
I stayed up way too late tonight
I think I’ll call you up before it gets too bright
I probably should’ve waited, should’ve gave you time
But I don’t wanna take too long to call you mine
She’s the kind of girl you can wait on, the kind of girl you can’t stray from
What I wanna know is will you come home with me tonight?
And I don’t wanna be that guy, but baby you and I are special
I just want to say let’s go out today
It’ll start with a table for you, then I love you
Yes it’s true, you are the one for me and now I see I wanted this all along
I can’t believe this girl, the girl that I wanted
She’s all mine, look where we started
I just can’t go a day without hearing your voice say
“You are my guy, you are my man, you are my love, you are my friend”
Just some of those things this girl says to me

The Message

I walk down to the ocean
All the people they don’t know that I have a message to deliver
A sign of what’s to come
He’s laid back with the glasses
Those eyes just looked at me
His head turned so slowly and I knew it had to be
He asked me for forgiveness as he looked up at the gun
I don’t want your excuses
I turned my head away
I walk home, I’m shaking
From the thought of what I had done
She knows what she has done and now her time has come
I walk now to the bedroom
She’s waiting home alone
She’s begging so softly
I turn my head away

Same Old Story
05:10
|

I don't worry too much anymore
I wake and see people moving by
They don't often stop and look
The beauty of this world goes by It looks
I lost myself again, go away
Know that it's my life to end
See the light at the end of the day
Waking up to the same old story
Look at the sky and it all goes grey
Get on the ledge, should i jump today?
That's where you'll find me
It seems like i should go away
It is getting harder to stay
But people seem to rely on me
I don't know why anyone still cares
It looks like i'll let them down again. Fade away.
Close my eyes and drift away
See the light at the end of the day
Waking up to the same old story
Look at the sky and it all goes grey
Get on the ledge should i i jump today?
That's where you'll find me

Waiting for tomorrow to come
Lost in a cloud in my mind
Trapped by the things that I said
I’m wanting the things I cant have
I’m watching you through the window pane
All the chances are gone
Why cant I get you to notice me?
I’m too afraid to ask
So many days have gone by
still I cant get you out of my mind
you are so beautiful, you are so wonderful
but you wont be mine
I’m watching you through the window pane
All the chances are gone
Why cant I get you to notice me?
I’m too afraid to ask
And I know that, you are perfect
I’ll keep waiting for you
And I know that you are perfect
and I know that you are mine
