These Words

Threw some chords together
The combination D.E.F
It's who I am Its what I do
And I was gonna lay it down for you

I tried to focus my attention
But I feel so A.D.D
I need some help some inspiration
Whoa...But its not coming easily

Tryn'a find the magic
tryn'a write a classic
Dont ya know dont cha know dont cha know
Wastebin full of paper
Clever rhymes see ya later

These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you I love you I love you I love you!
There's no other way
To better say
I love you, I love you

Read some Byron, Shelly and Keats
Recited it over a Hip Hop beat
I'm having trouble saying what I mean
With dead poets and drum machines

You know I had some studio time booked
But I couldn't find the killa hook
Now you've gone and raised the bar right up
Nothin' I write is ever good enough

These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you I love you I love you I love you!
Theres no other way
To better say
I love you I love you

I'm gettin off my stage the curtains pull away
No hyperbole to hide behind
My naked soul expose

Single

Ah yeah that's right
All you single people out there
This is for you
Yeah

I'm not waitin' around for a man to save me
(Cos I'm happy where I am)
Don't depend on a guy to validate me
(No no)
I don't need to be anyone's baby
(Is that so hard to understand?)
No I don't need another half to make me whole

Make your move if you want
Doesn't mean I will or won't
I'm free to make my mind up
You either got it or you don't

[Chorus:]
This is my current single status
My declaration of independence
There's no way I'm tradin' places
Right now a star's in the ascendant

I'm single
(Right now)
That's how I wanna be
I'm single
(Right now)
That's how I wanna be

Ah yeah Uh Huh that's right

Don't need to be on somebody's arm to look good
(I like who I am)
I'm not saying I don't wanna fall in love 'cos I would
I'm not gonna get hooked up just 'cos you say I should
(Can't romance on demand)
I'm gonna wait so I'm sorry if you misunderstood

[Repeat Chorus]

Everything in it's right time everything in its right place
I know I'll settle down one day
But 'til then I like it this way, it's my way
Eh I like it this way

Make your move if you want doesn't mean I will or won't
I'm free to make my mind up you either got it or you don't
'Til then I'm single

This is my current single status
My declaration of independence
There's no way I'm tradin' places
Right now a star's in the ascendant

I'm A Bomb

Taxi Ride, going down town
Me & my girls, going out
Counting down to detonation
10 to zero, mushroom cloud

Little angel, I been good too
Ditch the halo for a while
Dressed to kill
I'll be causing mass destruction
So shield your eyes

I'm all steamed up and I'm ready to blow
The pressure max, meter red overload
To get release I gotta explode

I'm a bomb, can you hear me tick?
Beware if you turn me on
There's no safety switch
I'm a bomb
Use only steady hands to mess with me
You must be a brave man

Bass so loud, I can't hear you
Can't defuse me now I'm wired
Do not disturb while I'm dancing
Watch me set this house on fire

Chorus

Club crescendo getting loud
Run for cover underground
What r u doin showin me no fear
You must be crazy hangin round here

Unwritten

I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your innovations
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, yeah, yeah

I Bruise Easily

Oh...yeah
My skin is like a map, where my heart has been
And I can't hide the marks, but it's not a negative thing
So I lay down my guard, drop my defenses, down by my clothes
I'm learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you hande me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

I found your finger prints on a glass of wine
Do your know ur leaving them all over this heart of mine too
If I never take this leap of faith I'll never know
So I'm learining to fall with no safety net to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you hande me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

Anyone who, can touch you, can hurt you, or heal you
Anyone who, can reach you, can love you, or leave you

So be gentle
So be gentle
So be gentle
So be gentle

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you hande me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

I bruise easily
I bruise easily

If You're Gonna

I got a short attention span
Can't sit around couch potato land
I wanna do all kinds of stuff
Talkin' about its not enough
I wanna go to the extreme
I wanna stretch my limousine
I wanna take it way off road
Go where Im not supposed to go

Life is music
Play it louder

If u're gonna jump then jump ......far, fly like a skydiver
If u're gonna be a singer then u better be a rockstar
If u're gonna be a driver then u better drive a race car
Cos' I'm lookin' for a guard dog, not buying a Chihuahua

I like my food with Chilli in
I like to laugh 'til It's hurtin'
I wanna stare fear in the face
I wanna take it all the way

Life is music
Play it louder

Chorus

If u're gonna jump then jump ......far
If u're gonna hit the high notes you gotta be a diva
If u're gonna play guitar gotta play til ya blister
Cos' I'm lookin' for a guard dog, not buying a Chihuahua


No half baked apples for my tea
Its hot or cold no in between

Silent Movie

We're in a picture black and white
You took the light out of my life
When you gave in

Were playing out our different roles
We should be wanting the same goals
Listening forgiving

Why can't we communicate?
When the main feature
Is just beginning

In this silent movie
There's no talking
You're just an actor
So break into my story
Take it over
Paint me with colour

Everybody's speaking
But you don't know what they're saying
You're just guessing, meanings

Interpreting emotion,
Through a window that is broken
We're just testing feelings

Why can't we communicate?
When the main feature
Is just beginning

Chorus

Step into the movie you can be my leading man
Break into the silence, so your heart can understand
Step into the movie , we can walk along the sand
Let me stand beside you, put your life into my hands

Don't you know you love me like you never loved yourself
Don't you know you love me like you never loved yourself

In this silent movie
There's no talking
You're just an actor
So break into my story
Take it over

We're All Mad

I think the lady did protest too much
She wouldn't take the flower from my hand
She only saw the shadow of my circumstance
Perception can't describe what makes a man

I didn't mean to interrupt your stride
But a rose was all I had to give
Sometimes beauty isin't recognized
When it contrasts with what you feel inside

Who's to say that darkened clouds must lead to rain
Who's to say that problems should just go away
Who's to point a finger at what's not understood
Because

We're all mad in our own way
Colors paint the grey away
Different people all the same
Each reveals a meaning
We're all mad in our own way
Fill the sky with different shades
Read the story on each page
Each reveals the meaning

Sometimes I think I over analyze
As if I can control the time and place
Life isn't something you try on for size
You can't have love without the give and take

Frogs & Princes

The in & out of datin's got me all confused
I build up expectation, end up feelin used
Seems everybody's into fast food, everybody's into quick
I want someone to take the time Fine dine me not rush it

Now Its nearly 7.30 I'm slippin' on a dress
I keep my fingers crossed you're not like all the rest
So when you come to pick me up come right to my door
Dont stay in ur car and beep beep the horn

Maybe Im a hopeless romantic
You'll pick the sounds for the backgroud to our drive into town
Baby don't be one of the traffic
Had too many nights with the wrong guys comin'up redlights

Tell me how many frogs do I have to kiss
Before I find my Prince
Before I find my Prince
All you girls that are goin' thru this
Tell 'em how it is
Tell 'em how it is

We pull up to our premiere, Red carpet good
You check my coat, get my chair like I hoped u would
You're funny and your flirtin's really workin 4 me
But where it goes from here gotta wait and see

Maybe Im a hopeless romantic
And you'll pick the view that we kiss to make me go Ooh Ooh
But maybe it'll all turn out tragic
And u'll push 4 more back at my front door more than Im ready for

You gotta..Tip the waiter, thats how it works
You cant skip the starter, go straight to desert
U gotta.. pop the cork..Before u taste the wine
Don't make a mad dash for the finish...
Line up in a row cos the dating game is (wooh)
We get hooked up but the real shame is
Too much connnection followed by rejection
S'gonna hurt a girl till she learns her lesson

Drop Me In the Middle (feat. Bizarre from D12)

I think I found the recipe, for creativity
Put all you've got, then add some heart
They fence us in to break us down
But still they can't shut us out
The walls are thin, but still they're strong
We're broken but we beat as one

Oh, I'm coming from the streets of London
What I'm saying happens everywhere
Oh, just trying to do something different, something different
Oh, People standing on the side just watching
Like they're scared or just don't care
Oh, But I wanna be where it's happening, where it's happening

Drop me in the middle
So I can make a ripple effect, upon the ocean
I'll be the moon that turns the tide
Drop in the middle, so I can make a ripple
A domino effect
Falling through the sands of time

Think I'll change the temperature
Till it's the right weather
Here in the core, it's getting warm
Too many channels nothing on
To turn it off it just takes one yeah

Oh, I'm coming from the streets of London
What I'm saying happens everywhere
Oh, just trying to do something different, something different
So, if you're standing on the side just watching
Get up. Get over here
Cause you gotta be where it's happening, where it's happening

Drop me in the middle
So I can make a ripple effect, upon the ocean
I'll be the moon that turns the tide
Drop in the middle, so I can make a ripple
A domino effect
Falling through the sands of time

Wild Horses

I feel these four walls closing in
Face up against the glass Im looking out mmm
Is this my life Im wonderin'
It happened so fast how do I turn this thing around?

Is this the bed I chose to make?
There's greener pastures Im thinkin' about mmmmm
Wide open spaces far away

All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but not feel scared

Wild Horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love like Im longi'n to.
Wanna run with the wild horses. run with the wild horses

I see the girl I wanna be
Ridin bareback carefree along the shore
If only that someone was me
Jumpin headfirst, headlong without a thought

To act and damn the consequence
How I wish it could be that easy mmmmm
But fears surround me like a fence
I wanna break free

Sojourn (hidden track)

Sitting on the edge of an armchair
My seatbelt unfastened, shoe laces not tied
Letting the wind mess my hair
Make-up all smudged, waking up all blurry eyed

It's too early in the morning
For my words to come out right
Just getting used to sunshine
I'm still squinting in the light

And it looks like a perfect day just to get away
All the mundane has brought out the rebel I was born to be
And it feels like the perfect time just to break away
This is my life, it's desertion from the norm

I'm a non-conformist
I like doing stupid things
Like laughing on a train, ha
Or falling in love again

Television magazines
They tell how to live your life
But not how to use your brain

It's too early in the morning
For my words to come out right
Just getting used to sunshine
I'm still squinting in the light

And it looks like a perfect day just to get away
All the mundane has brought out the rebel I was born to be
And it feels like the perfect time just to break away
This is my life, it's desertion from the norm

I wanna do something I've never done
Dip my toe beneath the surface of
A sea that I've never seen the bottom of

I'm not perfect, don't have to be
Can walk around in just bare feet
I'm comfortable in my own skin
My confidence, it starts within

And it looks like a perfect day just to get away
All the mundane has brought out the rebel I was born to be
And it feels like the perfect time just to break away
This is my life, it's desertion from the norm

Desertion from the norm

Size Matters

I've been sizing you up an' stuff watching you live life large
Enough for the both of us to big up the love
Got the measure of the man in you it's more than the sum of the parts
It's true what they say...you gotta big up the love

I've been checking nice things you do standing in the Starbucks queue
You buy coffee for a stranger who's down on their luck
Random acts of kindness flow, compassion from a hand I'd like to hold
It does it for me and I can't get enough

Oh...Don't confuse me when I say
Oh...Please don't take this the wrong way
You can lead a heart to love but you can't make it fall
I'm tired of lovin' small 'cos.....

Size matters but not how you think
I'm talkin' 'bout your heart and what you do with it
The more seeds you plant the more flowers you grow so..
Big up the love 'til it overflows

Most blokes too shallow to swim in, only interested in one thing
It's all so meaningless 'cos puddles dry up
With a view of the world so small it limits the size of the dream and you achieving it
A new panorama with your arms around me, I see my life how it should be

You can lead a heart to love but you can't make it fall
I'm tired of loving small 'cos....

You can lead a heart to love but you can't make it fall
I'm tired of loving small 'cos....

Peace Of Me

Standing still but still moving
Lying down but not resting
Breathing air; suffocating
All the while, I'm debating

Life was never what I thought,
Never what I wanted it to be

Had a plan, Couldn't follow
Had a dream, It was hollow
Everywhere felt like nowhere
Everything was so boring

Life was never what I wanted
Never what I thought
Until you came and turned it all around

Oh, you found a piece of me
It was missing; it was broken, you put soul into it
Oh, you found the whole of me
I was empty, now I'm better; all my pieces back together.

Yeah yeah yeah

Restless ways for a living
Fitting in cos I was driven
Saying yes when I meant no
Holding on; should've let go

I was scattered all around,
Left shattered on the ground
You picked me up

All I wanted was a little bit of hope; couldn't find it
You showed me something that I never knew I owned
You put a light to it

Oh, you found a piece of me
It was missing; it was broken, you put soul into it
Oh, you found the whole of me
I was empty, now I'm better; cos you pieced me back together

What a life, always trying
What a life, live without you
Don't leave me, I don't want
Fall apart, I won't leave you
And it's cold and I'm blind
And I would, and it feels good
What a waste of my mind
Everytime, All the time

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, you found the whole of me
It was missing; it was broken, you've put it back together
Oh, you've found the whole of me
I was empty, now I'm better; cos you pieced me back together

N.B.

How Do You Do?

I like to think I know how to look out for myself;
I got ways and means to filter wrong guys out.
When the BS meter is slamming into the red,
I just walk away 'cause I'm not interested.

OhOhOhOh
YaYaYaYa
If it's weird for girls to give guys flowers,
Then maybe that's a reason too,
You're not climbing up my ivory tower,
So I'm comin' down for you,

Is it wrong to write our names in love hearts,
In the dust that's on the car you drive
Droppin' hints can only get you so far,
When you don't know that I'm alive

Is it wrong to be the instigator [is it worng, is it wrong?]
Is it bad to be the move maker
Guess I gotta be the first to say a
to say a, to say a

Chorus-
How do you do?
If you won't say it, I will,
How do you do?
I'm really pleased to meet you,
How do you do?
Gotta say it how I feel it,
Say it or I will,

When you're hanging at the point of stalement,

It's not the time to bite your tongue
So at the risk of looking really stupid,
I'm gunna take the plunge

Is it wrong to be the instigator [No]
Is it bad to be the move maker
Guess I gotta be the first to say a
to say a, to say a

CHORUS

Say it or I will

It's not a good life just sittin round drinkin tea
Touching all each other
Exchanging pleasantries
I've been too retired to sink except
Sick of crosswords
Now I want to connect

CHORUS

Gotta say it how I feel it,
Say it or i will

CHORUS

I Wanna Have Your Babies

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas
But what if it don't?
What happens in my head stays in my head
But sometimes it won't
What if you knew what I was thinkin
Would it make you like WOHHHHH!
Dont wanna risk puttin' my foot in it
So ill keep my mouth closed!

All you hear is...

mmm mmm m m m m
Gonna button my lip So the truth dont slip
mmm mmm m m m m m
Gotta beep out what I really wanna shout
Woops Did I say it out loud, did you find out
I wanna have your babies
Get serious like crazy
I wanna have your babies
I see 'em springin up like daisies

Some of my feelings keep escapin'
so I make it a joke
Nonchalant I keep on fakin'
So my heart dont get broke
Im in a big big big big ocean in a tiny little boat
Ill only put the idea out there If I know its gonna float

mmm mmm m m m m m
Gonna button my lip
So the truth dont slip
mmm mmm m m m m m
Gotta beep out
What I really wanna shout
Woops Did I say it out loud
Did you find out
I wanna have your babies
Get serious like crazy
I wanna have your babies
I see 'em springin up like daisy's
In my head there's a slot machine
And Im bettin' you're the one in my hopes and dreams

Trust me it would scare you if you knew what was goin' on in my brain
Trust me it would scare you that I've picked out the church all the schools all the names
If you knew it was all about you every wish Every candle every coin in a fountain
Trust me it would scare you

Thats why I go...

Soulmate

Incompatible.
It don't matter, though;
'Cause someone's bound to hear my cry.
Speak out, if you do.
You're not easy to find.

Is it possible
Mr. Lovable is already in my life?
Right in front of me
Or maybe you're in disguise.

Who doesn't love for someone to hold?
Who knows how to love you
Without being told.

Somebody tell me
Why I'm on my own,
If there's a soul mate for everyone.

Here we are again,
Circles never end.
How do I find the perfect fit?
There's enough for everyone,
But I'm still waiting in line.

Who doesn't love for someone to hold?
Who knows how to love you
Without being told.

Somebody tell me
Why I'm on my own,
If there's a soul mate for everyone --

If there's a soul mate for everyone.

Most relationships seem so transitory.
They're all good but not the permanent one.

Who doesn't love for someone to hold?
Who knows how to love you
Without being told.

Somebody tell me
Why I'm on my own,
If there's a soul mate for everyone.

Who doesn't love for someone to hold?
Who knows how to love you
Without being told.

Somebody tell me
Why I'm on my own,
If there's a soul mate for everyone.

If there's a soul mate for everyone

Who Knows

 I'm in like with you,
Not in love with you, quite yet.
My heart's beginning to
Slightly overrule my head.

Oh no, oh no, my self control,
It won't hold up for very long.
Oh no, oh no, you touch my soul.
I can't help falling too fast for you.

Can you hold on a bit?
Stop before we go?
'Cause I might need a moment,
And I wouldn't wanna spoil it.

Who knows
If I am ready or not (ready or not)?
Only time will tell.
Who knows if we are
Ready to make this something?
Who knows?

Maybe this is love,
But I haven't fallen in quite yet.

Oh no, oh no, my self control,
It won't hold up for very long.
Oh no, oh no, you touch my soul.
I can't help falling too fast for you.

Can you hold on a bit?
Stop before we go?
'Cause I might need a moment,
And I wouldn't wanna spoil it.

Who knows
If I am ready or not (ready or not)?
Only time will tell.
Who knows if we are
Ready to make this something?
Who knows?

Can you hold on a bit?
Stop before we go?
'Cause I might need a moment,
And I wouldn't wanna spoil it.

Who knows
If I am ready or not (ready or not)?
Only time will tell.
Who knows if we are
Ready to make this something?
Who knows?

Who knows
If I am ready or not (ready or not)?
Only time will tell.
Who knows if we are
Ready to make this something.
Who knows?

Who knows? Maybe, maybe not.
Maybe, maybe not. Who knows?
Maybe I will, maybe I won't.
Who knows?

Say It Again

 No need to translate
'Cause my eyes give me away,
Even though my lips don't say.
Should be so easy,
But my head gets in the way --
All the things that I wanna tell you.

You're the most perfect yet,
Most definitely that I've met.
And I wonder if you know
That's how i feel about you.
I hope you know.

'Cause I have so much love for you,
Do with it what you will.
And I have nothing more to prove,
Say to me what you will.
Say, say it again.

Not enough lovers in life to go around,
But there's you and there's me
If we don't shut it out.
It's not hard to let go, enough to let me in
If it's meant to be, it can only be good.

You're the most perfect fit
Most definitely that I've met.
And I hope that you feel the same way, too, about me.
Just let me know.

'Cause I have so much love for you,
Do with it what you will.
And I have nothing more to prove,
Say to me what you will.
Say, say it again.

Can you take it? Can you take it from me?
If I give, can you receive?
I'm reaching out,
Giving everything.
I give you my heart,
Give you my soul,
I give you it all.

'Cause I have so much love for you,
Do with it what you will.
And I have nothing more to prove,
Say to me what you will.
Say, say it again.

'Cause I have so much love for you,
Do with it what you will.
And I have nothing more to prove,
Say to me what you will.
Say, say it again.

Pirate Bones

What if I squeezed myself into any shape
And I still don't fit
What if I bend myself so much that i break
And I cant mend it
What if I burned so bright that the fire goes out
And I cant stay lit
Whats the point in it
I could get good at crying crocodiles tears
Just to get along
I could carry on telling you what you want to hear
Til my voice is gone
But if i finally get to the place that I think is home
And i don't belong
Whats the point in it
Wheres the benefit
When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it

Its not worth having
If its too much to hold
It can dig so deep
That your left with a hole
Does the energizer with a bag full of gold

Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
While the thought was treasures just a pile of stones
I might have to judge, rather then be lying alone
Just a pile of pirate bones

Uh yeah oh oh
If I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having
Uh yeah oh oh
If its something I stole it ain't worth having

What if I stake everything I am on a dream
And its counterfeit
If I reach the end that justifies the means
Could I live with it
And if its true that I have to much of any good thing
Can only make me sick
Whats the point in it
Wheres the benefit
When I'm gaining all, but I'm losing it
Oooh

Its not worth having
If its too much to hold
It can dig so deep
That your left with a hole
Does the energizer with a bag full of gold

Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
While the thought was treasures just a pile of stones
I might have to judge, rather then be lying alone
Pirate bones
Uh yeah oh oh
If i forfeit my soul it ain't worth having
Uh yeah oh oh
If its something I stole it ain't worth having

Its not worth that much to me
If loosing out is what it means
This way may shallow victory
Is empty
Empty
Its just not worth the prize
Its only a fools pirate dies
If its draining every drop of lies
Til I'm dry
Lie.

Pirate Bones!

(Its not worth having) its not worth having
If its too much to hold
It can dig so deep
That your left with a hole
Does the energizer with a bag full of gold

Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
While the thought was treasures just a pile of stones
I might have to judge, rather then be lying alone
Just a pile of pirate bones

If I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having
Ooh ooh
If its something I stole it ain't worth having

Pirate bones
(While the thought was treasures just a pile of....stones)
mmmmm

Pirate Bones.

Backyard

It's been too long
Don't think I've seen you smile at me for quite a while
And we're too busy doing things
We haven't noticed what's missing
Where's the fun we used to have?
My childish ways and your sarcasm
Silly jokes and fairy tales
Where did we leave them?
Lost in the backyard
Your lasso my tiara
My wand, your plastic bazooka
Why can't we be how we were
In the backyard Your cowboy hat, my tutu
You hide and seek, I catch you
Why can't we be how we were in the backyard
Simple days of hand in hand
And drawing our names in the sand
Somehow life just complicates
Our buried treasure it just waits
Lost in the backyard
You can still meet me in the garden
You and I and hide behind the rosebed
You and I
You and I
Lost in the backyard again

Tricky Angel

I like to think I know how to look out for myself;
I got ways and means to filter wrong guys out.
When the BS meter is slamming into the red,
I just walk away 'cause I'm not interested.

Then I met a boy who didn't hit on me;
I did not suspect reverse psychology.
You knew if you'd knocked I wouldn't have let you in.
How'd you get the code to my security system?

I think some tricky angel just knocked me on the head.
Made me look at you different,
Made me see some sense.
Tricky angel got me falling without my consent.
And I'm so glad he did,
'Cause I didn't know you were heaven-sent.

I was writing you off, making a huge mistake.
His intervention rescued us from fate.
I don't know how, but somehow you got me down.
You just broke into me and ignored that it wasn't allowed.

Someone's being sneaky, sneaky
'Cause I'm so hard to please.
I was so picky, picky
So cupid ticked the boxes for me.

I think some tricky angel just knocked me on the head.
Made me look at you different,
Made me see some sense.
Tricky angel got me falling without my consent.
And I'm so glad he did,
'Cause I didn't know you were heaven-sent.

Under the radar, you slipped into my heart.
You gave me a taste for what I didn't know that I wanted.
When I wasn't looking,
You did what I least expected:
Tip-toed in while I was sleeping.
And I'm wide awake now.

I think some tricky angel just knocked me on the head.
Made me look at you different,
Made me see some sense.
Tricky angel got me falling without my consent.
And I'm so glad he did,
'Cause I didn't know you were heaven-sent.

I think some tricky angel just knocked me on the head.
Made me look at you different,
Made me see some sense.
Tricky angel got me falling without my consent.
And I'm so glad he did,
'Cause I didn't know you were heaven-sent.

Tricky angel got me falling.
And I'm so glad he did.

When You Know You Know

You taught me a lesson about love today.

Love is not a castle in the clouds
'Cause when there's a storm, it'll all come crashing down.
I'd rather find it like a penny on the ground
'Cause that's something I can keep, and carry around.
Truth is not a feather blowin' round in the wind;
It's that jump in your heart, Goosebumps on your skin.
Just pinch me if it's really happening
'Cause I'm more awake than I've ever been.
And you're the one from my dream.

You're out of my mind
And into my heart.
You're more than a feeling,
More than I could have thought.
I can't deny, I can't say love never comes.
All I know is, when you know, you know.

And I just know
That love has come in the form of you.
If someone put me on a witness stand,
I'd point to you, as hardcore evidence.
You're proof that you don't have to understand.
You can still fall into the right hands.
You're the one in my dreams.

You're out of my mind
And into my heart.
You're more than a feeling,
More than I could have thought.
I can't deny, I can't say love never comes.
All I know is, when you know, you know.

I was a doubter:
A typical, won't believe 'til I see.
Oh so grounded, to think that someone like you
Couldn't be right in front of me.

You're out of my mind
And into my heart.
You're more than a feeling,
More than I could have thought.
I can't deny, I can't say love never comes.
All I know is, when you know, you know.

You're out of my mind
And into my heart.
You're more than a feeling,
More than I could have thought.
I can't deny, I can't say love never comes.
All I know is, when you know, you know.

And I just know.

I Think They're Thinking (Interlude)

Hate those times when the mirror's not my friend
When everything I see in it offends
Talking back at me I swear it says
All the things I think they're thinking
All the things I think they're thinking about me

About me
On rainy days when there's absolutely nothing to do
But stay inside, bite my nails and chew
On all the things I'd rather not think about thinking
All the things I think they're thinking

(No More) What Ifs (featuring Eve)

All the could-be's buzzin' 'round
My mind a thousand-timely cloud
And now I can not see the sun

All the worries on my list
Rush like lamings off a cliff
I'm powerless to save even one

All my friends tell me I'm thinking too much
It's not over 'til it's over
Because today is trouble enough
Live tomorrow, 'til tomorrow

I'm not jinxing what could be
Second guessing what I see
There is you and there is me
No what if's
My crossing fingers knocking wood
'cause worrying about we could
Spoil the moment when it's good
No more what ifs
Could-be's
One day's
If only's

That intro's looping on and on
Don't really get to feel the song
When it's only playing in my head

If I don't listen with my heart
Trust my instincts from the start
Then I'm as done, as done can get

So I'm not
I'm not jinxing what could be
Second guessing what I see
There is you and there is me
No what if's
My crossing fingers knocking wood
'cause worrying about we could
Spoil the moment when it's good
No more what ifs
Could-be's
One day's
If only's

If the sky falls down
What if it don't work out
What if a black cat crosses my path
Does that mean you and me, we're not gonna last?
What if Mr Right turns out to be wrong?
What if there's no happy ending for this song
What if the one for me is the one that's she's with
When my heart feels love, or will my head believes it?

I'm thinking too much.
It's not over 'til it's over
'cause today is trouble enough
Live tomorrow, 'til tomorrow

I'm not jinxing what could be
Second guessing what I see
There is you and there is me
No what if's
My crossing fingers knocking wood
'cause worrying about we could
Spoil the moment when it's good
No more what ifs
Could-be's
One day's
If only's

Not Givin' Up

Rubbing salt in my wounds
Like it don’t hurt, like it don’t hurt me
Your sweet bitter love songs
That seduce me with a sinister beat

I’m bringing out the worst in you
It was never my intention to
That was just unfair to do
Salt in my wounds
Getting burned up
With the negative heat

How can I stay mad with you?
When I’m so in love with you

I don’t know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some how
You and me we got common ground
I’m not giving up, no

Are you looking for a way out?
Are you looking for an exit?
It seems like all the fuss you’re making
Is a sign that you’re not quite sure

Well, I don’t recommend you to
Coz what we got’s to good to lose
And I can tell you know that too
Or is it just aggravation
You’re picking on me
You’re rubbing salt in my wounds

How can I stay mad with you?
When I’m so in love with you

I don’t know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some work
You and me we got common ground
I’m not giving up, no

I don’t know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some work
You and me we got common ground
I’m not giving up, no

Maybe just a kind word now and then
Could turn it around and make us a happy end
But if this is it and the moment is gone
Well then I guess I must have just got it wrong

Wise as it sounds it just doesn’t make sense
And as long as it takes I’m gonna keep on trying
Coz I’m not giving up on us
I’m not giving up, no

How can I stay mad with you?
I’m not giving up, no
When I’m so in love with you

I don’t know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some work
You and me we got common ground
I’m not giving up, no

No way, no way
I’m not giving up, no
No way, no way
I’m not giving up, no

Still Here

You looked at me and saw what I never could see
You made me feel more than I thought I could ever be
And when I needed a friend you were always there to lift me up
To make me strong
You're not gone

You're still here
With me all the time
You're still here
When I close my eyes
I still see you
I still feel you
And we'll never be apart
You're still here
Still here in my heart
In my heart

Because of you I knew how it felt to be loved
You made me feel beautiful 'cause you believed I was
And I will never forget how you touched my life
You made me feel like I belong
You live on

You're still here
With me all the time
You're still here
When I close my eyes
I still see you
I still feel you
And we'll never be apart
You're still here
Still here in my heart
In my heart

All my life
You'll be in my life
You'll be part of me
I'll just think of you and you'll still be
You'll still be here

Still here
You're with me all the time
You'll still be here
Still here
When I close my eyes
I still see you
I still feel you
And we'll never be apart
You're still here in my heart

You're still...
I still feel you
And we'll never be apart
You're still here in my heart
In my heart
In my heart
In my heart
Still here

Smell The Roses

I've been living in a room without windows
Away from the sun, no oxygen.
I couldn't tell if it was day or night.
Away from the sun, growing nowhere fast,
Rushing along on the pavement.
Don't even look at the people's faces, going places.

When an old man said stop,
You nearly stepped on a flower.
Growing through the cracks,
And you didn't even notice.

Wake up, smell the roses.
Life is happening and you don't know it.
Wake up, take a moment;
Grab it in your hands, and own it.

I realize our love is like that flower:
Been neglecting the thing most precious to me.
You've been talking but I haven't been listening.
The static in the noise been drowning you out.
I so wanna be in the future,
That I keep tripping
Over my own shoe laces
In these human races.
And I'm brought back to now,
And the volume goes down.
There's peace in his words as loud as a shout, saying,

Wake up, smell the roses.
Life is happening and you don't know it.
Wake up, take a moment;
Grab it in your hands, and own it.

He says,

Wake up, smell the roses.
Life is happening and you don't know it.
Wake up, take a moment;
Grab it in your hands, and own it.

Like your birthday, I forgot
I was with you,
But I was not really there.
Snap your fingers, that's your life;
Not gonna let it pass me by, no.

When an old man said stop,
You nearly stepped on a flower.
Growing through the cracks,
And you didn't even notice.

Wake up, smell the roses.
Life is happening and you don't know it.
Wake up, take a moment;
Grab it in your hands, and own it.

Wake up, smell the roses.
Life is happening and you don't know it.
Wake up, take a moment;
Grab it in your hands, and own it.

Unwritten

I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your innovations
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, yeah, yeah

Lay Down

Speechless, but the answer's in my mouth.
Breathless, the emotion's seeping out beyond my control.
You spoke to my silence. Why so cold?

You ask for peace, I give you war.
While you let go, I hold too tightly.
I take my aim, you hit with love.
I'm not ready to lay down my arms.

Cracking, my defense is breaking down.
The unraveling of the rope I put around me.
You won't take no for an answer.

You ask for peace, I give you war.
While you let go, I hold too tightly.
I take my aim, you hit with love.
I'm not ready to lay down my arms.

I don't know what was missing
Until you lost and I, I won.

You made me realize my incompleteness alone.
Can no longer live by candlelight
When you showed me the sun.

You ask for peace, I give you war.
While you let go, I hold too tightly.
I take my aim, you hit with love.
I'm not ready to lay down my arms.

Lay down.

While you let go, I hold on tightly.
I take my aim, you hit with love.
I'm not ready to lay down my arms.

Loved By You

 Do I look different?
Won't be surprised if I did
'Cause it isn't that often
That someone affects me quite like this.

And there's only one to blame,
That I've been all rearranged.
And it's showing on my face;
That's because

Somebody loves me
More than I thought was possible.
Somebody's changed me
And it's you that's responsible.

You gave me your heart.
Don't need anymore evidence
That I'm loved.

Somebody gets me
And it's not just coincidence.
Somebody's for me
And it makes all the difference.

You gave me your heart.
Don't need anymore evidence
That I'm loved by you.

'Cause I'm changed for the better.
I'm changed for good.
I'm changed for the better.
I am changed for good.

The world's looking sunny
'Cause that's what you do for me.

Somebody loves me
More than I thought was possible.
Somebody's changed me
And it's you that's responsible.

You gave me your heart.
Don't need anymore evidence
That I'm loved.

Somebody gets me
And it's not just coincidence.
Somebody's for me
And it makes all the difference.

You gave me your heart.
Don't need anymore evidence
That I'm loved by you.

I'm loved by you.
