Resolution - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Resolution
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Nothing but an empty page
Breathing in an open space
Captured by your moment's grace again
There's so much I left behind
Even more that waits in time
Everything's so undefined
I'm standing on the edge of my fear
And I see it clear

Here's my resolution
I'm letting go
All I need to learn is along this road
And I just want to be the best man I can be
Breathe, it's my resolution

Living life without her there
Finding soul is where I stand
And learning how to love again
And all I want is something real
That I can feel

Here's my resolution
I'm letting go
All I need to learn is along this road
And I just wanna be the best man I can be

'Cause here's my resolution
I'm letting go
All I need to learn is along this road
And I just wanna be the best man I can be
Breathe, it's my resolution

My resolution
(Ooh oh oh)

What's Left Of Me - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: What's Left Of Me
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Watch my life,
Pass me by,
In the rear view mirror
Pictures frozen in time
Are becoming clearer
I don't wanna waste another day
Stuck in the shadow of my mistakes

Yeah...

[Chorus]
Cause I want you,
And I feel you,
Crawling underneath my skin
Like a hunger,
Like a burning,
To find a place I've never been
Now I'm broken,
And I'm faded,
I'm half the man I thought I would be:
But you can have what's left of me

I've been dying inside,
Little by little,
No where to go,
But going out of my mind
In endless circles,
Running from my self until,
You gave me a reason for standing still

[Chorus]

It's falling faster,
Barely breathing,
Give me something,
To believe in
Tell me: It's not all in my head

Take what's left
Of this man
Make me whole
Once again

[Chorus]

I've been dying inside you see
I'm going out of my mind
Out of my mind
I'm just running in circles all the time
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left of me?
Running in circles in my mind
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left of me?

On And On - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: On And On
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

When the darkness finds the night
My heart still beat for you
In your eyes I see the lie
What can I do, I'll try my best to walk away
So I don't have to feel the pain
It goes on and on, on and on
And this emptiness I feel goes on and on
On and on
As I cry myself to sleep I just can't go on
On and on
When this love I feel for you is so strong
On and on, on and on
Why can't I feel your heartbeat next to mine
The way it used to be
I love that purpose that is so right
I need you to see I try my best to walk away
But I just can't ignore the pain
It goes on and on, on and on
And this emptiness I feel goes on and on, on and on
As I cry myself to sleep I just can't go on
On and on
When this love I feel for you is so strong
On and on, on and on
Can I find a way to let you know
Could I ever make you see
Baby you took my soul and took my heart
But the pain you left all for me
It goes on and on
On and on
and this emptiness I feel, it goes on and on, on and on
As I cry myself to sleep I just can't go on
On and on
When this love I feel for you is so strong
On and on, on and on
You've got someone else to share your nights
I guess it's meant to be
In your eyes I see the lie
But the light's not from me
I turn around and walk away
But I'll never escape the pain
It goes on and on, on and on
It goes on and on

Open Your Eyes - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Open Your Eyes
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Yeah baby

He told you he could be the man that I could never be
He has a way at making promises that he can't keep
He gets so angry when I try to point this out
And still it's you who's always calling me this late at night
I know you miss the way I used to hold your body tight
You needed me girl but you never say it

If you love him more just tell me so (tell me so)
But do one thing for me before you go

Open your eyes
Girl if it's love
Why can't you sleep at night
Open your eyes
Why don't you tremble when he holds you tight
If it's the last thing that I ever do
Let me make this clear to you
Open up your eyes
Don't be blinded by his promises
Open your eyes
The one he says isn't who he is
There's more to us than you realize
So open your eyes

I know our history is something that we can't ignore
Just give me half the chance I'll make it better than before
Worse thing I did was give you wings to fly away
And if it's yesterday that keeps your heart from coming home
Girl I apologize for all the things that I've done wrong
To lose your love would be the price too high to pay

He can't love you more than I do
Girl don't let his sweet lies blind you

Open your eyes
Girl if it's love
Why can't you sleep at night
Open your eyes
Why don't you tremble when he holds you tight
If it's the last thing that I ever do
Let me make this clear to you
Open up your eyes
Don't be blinded by his promises
Open your eyes
The one he says isn't who he is
There's more to us than you realize
Just open your eyes

Oh no
Every night
I stay alone and pray that you
Wake up and find
My love is waiting here

Open your eyes
Yeah baby
If it's the last thing that I ever do
Let me make this clear to you
Open up your eyes
Don't be blinded by his promises
Open your eyes
The one he says isn't who he is
There's more to us than you realize
Open your eyes
Oh, open your eyes
Just open your eyes

This I Swear - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: This I Swear
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

You're there by my side
In every way
I know that you would not forsake me
I give you my life
Would not think twice
Your love is all I need believe me

I may not say it quite as much as I should
When I say I love you darling that means for good
So open up your heart and let me in

And I will love you 'til forever
Until death do us part we'll be together
So take my hand and hold on tight
And we'll get there
This I swear

I'm wondering how I ever got by
Without you in my life to guide me
Where ever I go the one thing that's true
Is everything I do I do for you

I may not say it half as much as I should
When I say I love you darling that means for good
So open up your heart and let me in
And I will love you 'til forever
Until death do us part we'll be together
So take my hand and hold on tight
And we'll get there
This I swear

So whenever you get weary
Just reach out for me
I'll never let you down my love

And I will love you 'til forever
Until death do us part we'll be together
So take my hand and hold on tight
And we'll get there

And I will love you 'til forever
Until death do us part we'll be together
So take my hand and hold on tight
And we'll get there
Ohh we'll get there
This I swear

It's Alright - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: It's Alright
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

It's alright, it's alright

Well I don't even know your name
But I've been watchin' all the same
I hear your voice, I guess you're home from work again
I was the guy across the hall
I smiled at you but that was all
The one day we went at it up against the wall

It's some daily habit, we can't wait to grab it
We both gotta have it, just give me a sign

I'm comin' over tonight
And if you leave on the light
It means you're sayin' come in, it's alright

I'm comin' over tonight
And if you leave on the light
It means you're sayin' come in, it's alright

You're gettin' off, yeah I can tell
If walls could talk, they'd probably yell (it's alright)
Don't know your name, but I should know your body well
Temptation's only steps away
A game of this we like to play
Your light is on, you're tellin' me that it's ok

It's some daily habit, we can't wait to grab it
We both gotta have it, just give me a sign

I'm comin' over tonight
And if you leave on the light
It means you're sayin' come in, it's alright

I'm comin' over tonight
And if you leave on the light
It means you're sayin' come in, it's alright

Come up, come in, I wanna see ya baby (I'm comin' over tonight)
Cause we know how to do it
Come up, come in, I wanna see ya baby (I'm comin' over tonight)
Cause we know how to do it

I saw you in the hall today (nothin' left to say)
But still I know what's in your head
I'll see you later on in bed
I smiled at you but that was all
Then one day we went at it up against the wall

It's some daily habit, we can't wait to grab it
We both gotta have it, just give me a sign

I'm comin' over tonight
Come in, it's alright

I'm comin' over tonight
And if you leave on the light
It means you're sayin' come in, it's alright

I'm comin' over tonight
And if you leave on the light
It means you're sayin' come in, it's alright

I'm comin' over tonight (Come up, come in, I wanna see ya baby)
I'm comin' over tonight
Come in, it's alright

Edge Of Eternity - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Edge Of Eternity
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Destiny cannot be shaken
Fate will send us where we need to be
Many turns our love has taken
But in the end you're standing here with me
Now it's a long road to forever
But together I know we'll find a way

Now we're standin' on the edge
Edge of the eternity you and I
We're standin' hand in hand
Nothing will break our love
I'll cherish you each day 'til I die
For all eternity you and I

My heart's filled with such emotion
You're the reason for the air I breathe
I pledge to you all my devotion
Until death do part you away from me
I've never been so close to heaven
As the moment when I looked into your eyes

We're standin' on the edge
Edge of the eternity you and I
We're standin' hand in hand
Nothing will break our love
I'll cherish you each day 'til I die
For all eternity you and I

And baby together (and baby together)
There is so much we have yet to see
And now and forever (now and forever)
I pray you'll always be here with me
Eternally

We're standin' on the edge
Edge of the eternity you and I
We're standin' on the edge
Edge of the eternity you and I
We're standin' on the edge
Edge of the eternity you and I
We're standin' hand in hand
For all eternity
ooo ooo
For all eternity

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Can't Stop Lovin' You
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Don't think I can ever stop
I can't help the way I'm feelin'
So babe, tell me what you got
My love, you know that you can steal it

My head is reelin'
Everyone has got a price to pay, yeah
Been hurt, baby took my licks
But ain't no use in cryin'
You're my drug, gotta get my fix
Somehow you keep my spirit flyin'
There's no denyin'
Wouldn't have it any other way, no, no

And after everything you put me through
All I think about is you

Hey, I can't stop lovin'
No, I can't stop lovin' you
(Gonna blow a fuse) No, I can't stop lovin'
(If I can't have you) No, I can't stop lovin' you

Are you lookin' for another man
My heart can't keep from breakin'
He can't give it to you like I can
Don't you know you're makin' a mistake, yeah

My body's achin'
Gotta find a way to make you stay, yeah, yeah

Cause nothin' ever felt so good
As when I'm makin' love to you

(One plus one is two) Hey, I can't stop lovin'
(Nothin' left to prove) No, I can't stop lovin' you
(Gonna blow a fuse) No, I can't stop lovin'
(If I can't have you)

Hold onto this emotion (hold onto this emotion)
Hold onto me tonight (hold onto me tonight)
Love's an infinite ocean (love's an infinite ocean)
Don't let it die

Hey, I can't stop lovin'
No, I can't stop lovin' you
(Gonna blow a fuse) No, I can't stop lovin'
(If I can't have you) I can't stop lovin' you, oh no

(One plus one is two) You know I can't stop lovin' you
(Nothin' left to prove) No, I can't stop lovin' you
(Gonna blow a fuse) No, I can't stop lovin'
(If I can't have you) Oh, I can't stop lovin' you

(One plus one is two) Hey, I can't stop lovin' you, oh no
(Nothin' left to prove) Oh no, I can't stop lovin' you
(Gonna blow a fuse) Hey, I can't stop lovin', no
(If I can't have you) No, I can't stop lovin' you

You're The Only Place - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: You're The Only Place
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Seems like our love is on the road to nowhere fast
All my life I thought a love like this would last
But every road can hide a corner we can't see
I had a vision that I woke up by your side
I felt your breathing and our souls were intertwined
But who controls love's destiny
Not me
We had it all right in our hands
We had the room to fly and still the place to land

[Chorus:]
And so I'm calling out, I'm calling out
You're the only one
Who can save us from what we've done
That don't leave me hanging on
I'm reaching out and praying you'd come back again
It's just darkness I'm living in
And you're the only place my heart has ever been

Maybe I'm longing in a way of love naive
Maybe I'm desperate for a reason to believe
There wasn't any wat I thought that we would fall
I've seen perfection in a rainbow in the sky
I've seen a child make the coldest grown man cry
But loving you I thought was greater than them all
And we had it all, just you and me
And now there's a doorway to me heart without a key

[Chorus]

Wherever you are right now, come back baby show me how you feel
Because I'm lost without you here
I'm calling out, I'm calling out
You're the only one
Now take a look at what I become
And don't leave me hanging on
I'm reaching out and praying you'd come back again
It's just darkness I'm living in
And you're the only place my heart has ever been

Carry On - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Carry On
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Hopeless, wondering if anybody noticed,
Feeling like you're drifting out of focus
Cause you're hopeless
You're just a hollow soul.
Crying, feeling like a part of you is dyin,
Reachin for the strenth to keep you tryin
Still you're cryin
You're livin in the cold.

Say goodbye to the people
You don't need in your life
Say goodbye to the heartache
And darkness of the night
Say hello to the risin of the sun
There will always be a brighter day
You got to carry on

Fire, burning with the passion it desires,
Suddenly you're hands are reachin higher
You're on fire
Your love has made you whole

Say goodbye to the people
And poison in your life
Say goodbye to the heartache
And trouble and strife
Say hello to the love thats just begun
There will always be a brighter day
You have to carry on

And no man is an island
You can't go on alone
When you're heart starts breakin
You need to come back home
We're all lookin for somethin
The search for the one
On and on and on and on

Hopeless, wondering if anybody noticed,
Feeling like you're drifting out of focus
Cause you're hopeless
You're just a hollow soul.

Say goodbye to the people
You don't need in your life
Say goodbye to the heartache
And darkness of the night
Say hello to the risin of the sun
There will always be a brighter day
You got to carry on

Say goodbye to the people
And poison in your life
Say goodbye to the heartache
And trouble and strife
Say hello to the love thats just begun
There will always be a brighter day
You have to carry on

Title: Could U Love
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

(Can you get it too, can you get it too
Can you get it too, can you get it too
Can you get it too,baby
Can you get it too, can you get it too)

Sometimes I don't know where do I go
And who do I turn to
Cause you, you've found something new
At somebody who makes you feel so awful

So tell me this time
Cause you know I'm losing my mind
Is the feeling mutual
Cause I, I just gotta know, I gotta know
Tell me (could U love)
I get my heart in this thing (would U love)
If I give my best thing (could U love)
Here's the question (could U love)
Could you love me
Could you love me (could U love)
I leave myself wide open (would U love)
And it's sad I'm hoping (could U love)
These words unspoken
Could you love me

I, I can't hesitate
Cause now it's too late
Just look what you've done to me

So tell me this time
Cause you know I'm losing my mind
Is the feeling mutual
Cause I, I just gotta know, I gotta know
Tell me (could U love)
I get my heart in this thing (would U love)
If I give my best thing (could U love)
Here's the question (could U love)
Could you love me
Could you love me (could U love)
I leave myself wide open (would U love)
And it's sad I'm hoping (could U love)
These words unspoken
Could you love me

Do you understand
I give you all I can
What more can I do
Oh no no I gotta let you know
I gotta let my feeling show
But would you love, baby could you love me
The way I love you

Could U love
I get my heart in this thing (would U love)
If I give my best thing (could U love)
Well here's the question (could U love)
Baby tell me could you love me
Could you love me
I leave myself wide open (would U love)
And it's sad I'm hoping (could U love)
These words unspoken
Could you love me

Could you love
Would you love
Would you love me
Could you love
Oh baby
Could you love me

I don't know what it is tonight
Your smile, your eyes, yeah
Even in a candlelight
You shine so bright
And you're so beautiful
More beautiful than you've ever been
I catch my breath
And fall in love again

I can't imagine where I'll be without you with me
I need you every day more than words can say
I want you in the life
And for all the life
This night will never end
You take my hand
And I fall in love again

Nothing short of a miracle
could've brought you here to me
When I'm with you
Heaven's all I see
All I see

Caught up in ever touch
I feel the rush of this moment back when we're here
Each time we kiss
I fall in love again
I can't resist
I fall in love again

Let Go - Nick Lachey

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Let Go
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Yeah

I met this girl Friday night she said why don't you come with me
Anywhere let's take a flight she said, "Who knows what we might see?"
I was ready to go but I already know that fate was gonna stop me
I met this girl she rocked my world and she there's waiting for me
But the train was late, she's at the gate, stuck in the rain, she got on the plane
I guess this girl will hate me forever
I guess were not meant to be together

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Let go

I thought I knew back in school that I would be a doctor
Mom said, "Study hard and you'll go far." But then I went and shocked her
I said I'm leaving today to go to L.A. I wanna be a rock star
I thought I knew, but I'm a fool
Now I'm sleeping on the cold floor
Where the private jet - ain't happening it
Cristal shampan stuck in the rain
Sorry mom don't hate me forever
I guess I should've kept it togethet

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Just let go

You can try to make the sun rise again
You can try to turn the tides, but you can't
You can drive the car
You can sign your name
Hold on so tight that you'll go insane
You can try to plan your life to the bendge
You can try to run the race until you win
You can buy the house
You can own the car
Doesn't matter who you are
I said the train is late you gotta wait
Your private plane is sitting in the rain
All of us are in it together so let go
Let go (let go)

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Let go

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Let go

Song's Lyrics >> N >> Nick Lachey

Title: Shut Up
Album:
Artist: Nick Lachey

Oh, oh, oh
Shut Up

You say you want me
That you hate me
Try to love me wanna break me
Guess I'm sleeping on the couch again
You say no, when you mean yes
Is this a game some kind of test
Now why cant we just
Turn out the light
Forget how to fight
Cuz we got tonight

Cuz
When we take our clothes off
Don't you know the world stops
When we touch, when we kiss
When we shut up for a moment
We are minded by the one thing
You on me or nothing
When we touch, when we kiss,
When we shut up
Don't say anything at all

You throw a glass straight at my head
Swear up and down you want me dead
I guess love is in the air tonight
You bite my neck, I pull your hair
Next thing we know, no underwear
Now why can't we just
Turn out the light, forget how to fight
Cuz we got tonight

Cuz
When we take our clothes off
Don't you know the world stops
When we touch, when we kiss
When we shut up for a moment (Turn out the light)
We are minded by the one thing (Forget how to fight)
You on me or nothing (We got tonight)
When we touch, when we kiss,
When we shut up
And it just had to be you
When we take our clothes off
Don't you know the world stops
When we touch, when we kiss
When we shut up for a moment (And it just had to be you)
We are minded by the one thing
You on me or nothing
When we touch, when we kiss,
When we shut up (Shut up, shut up, shut up)
Don't say anything at all

Use your tongue to wet your lips
Touch them with your fingertips
Don't say nothing else
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
Only wanna hear your breath
Your sigh, your scream, you're nothing less
Don't say nothing else
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up

When we take our clothes off
Don't you know the world stops
When we touch, when we kiss
When we shut up for a moment (Turn out the light)
We are minded by the one thing (Forget how to fight)
You on me or nothing (We got tonight)
When we touch, when we kiss,
When we shut up
And it just had to be you
When we take our clothes off
Don't you know the world stops
When we touch, when we kiss
When we shut up for a moment (Just shut up, shut up, shut up)
We are minded by the one thing
You on me or nothing
When we touch, when we kiss,
When we shut up (Shut up, shut up, shut up)
Don't say anything at all

Again And Again - Jewel

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: Again And Again
Album:
Artist: Jewel

Listen dear
I need you to hear.
I cannot disappear
I've tried again and again and again.

I know we said
That we'd give up
You said we'd had enough
Again and again and again.

But you, you're always on my mind.
It's like this all the time.
Say it's cause you're mine
All mine...

And if you will, I will
Try to let it go.
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show us the way
'Cause love is here to stay
Just look me in the eye
This is do or die
And I will stay in love
'Till you say enough
There is no giving in
There is no giving up in love.

Walk down the street
Stare at lots of things
The fast and steady streams
Again and again and again.

Do what I should
Try to stay busy
Your face is all I see
Again and again and again.

But you, you're always on my mind.
It's like this all the time.
Say it's cause you're mine
All mine...

And if you will, I will
Try to let it go.
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show us the way
'Cause love is here to stay
Just look me in the eye
This is do or die
And I will stay in love
'Till you say enough
There is no giving in
There is no giving up in love.

Like a movie I once saw
In the darkness I recall
Feeling the beauty and the pain
And when you call my name
Say you feel the same.

Cause' if you will, I will
Try to let it go
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show.

And if you will, I will
Try to let it go
And if you try, I'll try
Try to let it show us the way
'Cause love is here to stay
Just look me in the eye
This is do or die
And I will stay in love
'Til you say enough
There is no giving in
There is no giving up in love
In love, in love
We're in love

I cannot disappear...
I've tried again and again and again...

A Long Slow Slide - Jewel

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: A Long Slow Slide
Album:
Artist: Jewel

Lights are bright in the circus
The geeks and the freaks all light cigarettes and laugh at your misery
While the white of the curtain closing crushes your heart
The inertia of loneliness tears your flesh apart
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
Down
Once the neon is gone
There's still that golden splinter at your side
His manners are charming
But who are you fooling
You're still nobody's bride
And Bukowski's widow
Haunts each empty seat on the ferris wheel
As ghoulish lovers collide in a collage of kisses that they steal
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
Down
And outside your window you can see the circus it's lurching
with rings of smoke
You laugh halfheartedly at the punchline
Not realizing they've made you the joke
And inside you're heart a war is raging
A region still untamed
The worst fear I can imagine is for the mystery to be named
Is for the mystery to be named
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
It's a long slow slide
Down

Goodbye Alice In Wonderland - Jewel

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: Goodbye Alice In Wonderland
Album:
Artist: Jewel

[Verse 1:]
It's four in the afternoon
I'm on a flight leaving L.A.
Trying to think about my life
My youth scattered along the highway

Hotel rooms and headlines
I've made a living with a song
Just a guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong

Fame is filled with spoiled children
They grow fat on fantasy
I guess that's why I'm leaving
I crave reality

[Chorus 1:]
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
For what was missing in my life

[Verse 2:]
I'm embarassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliche
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
You did not

Yes a heart can hallucinate
If it's completely starved for love
Can even make monsters seem like
Angels from above

You forged my love like a weapon
And turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heartstring
But you opened up my eyes

[Chorus 2:]
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
what was missing in my life

[Bridge:]
Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life
Pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are
Seeing for what you've been told
And growing up is not the absence of dreaming
It's being able to understand the difference between the ones you can hold
And the ones that you've been sold

[Verse 3:]
Well, truth is stranger than fiction
And this is my chance to get it right
Life is much better without all of your pretty lies

[Chorus 3:]
So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
You can keep your yellow brick road
Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wishing
That you were what was missing from my life

Good Day - Jewel

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: Good Day
Album:
Artist: Jewel

I say to myself
Self, why are you awake again? It's one a.m.
Standing with the fridge door wide open, staring
Such a sight, florescent light
The stars are bright
Might make a wish, if I believed in that shit
As it is, I might watch TV
Cause it's nice to see people more messed up than me
I say to myself, as I smile at the wall, let myself fall

It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It's gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gotta be

I shiver, shut the door
Can't think standing here no more
I'm alone, my mine's racing, heart breaking
Can you be everything I need you to be?
Can you protect me like a daughter?
Can you love me like a father?
Can you drink me like water?
Say I'm like the desert, just hotter.

The point of it all
Is that if I should fall
Still you're name I'll call

It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It's gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be

As long as we laugh out loud
Laugh like we're mad
Cause this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have
Because what's love but an itch we can't scratch, a joke we can't catch
But still we laugh

I go back upstairs, turn off the TV
You say "I'll be okay baby, just wait and see."

It's gonna be all right, it's gonna be okay
Gonna be a good day, just wait, just see
Gonna okay, cause I'm okay with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gonna be...

Satellite - Jewel

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: Satellite
Album:
Artist: Jewel

Babies on beach blankets headed for Mars
Cute guys in crew cuts with the day goes to bars
There's a pretty lady in a bikini
Her eyes are clear
But her teeth look like smashed out window panes
She's trying to fix her dreams
With seaweed and sushi and carrot juice and wheat germ

There's a wide wall
That she can't see over now
But that's ok
Because mistakes are allowed when you're a
Satellite

A jog in the morning with some vitamins
Then go to a singles bar
California is sure lovely
It's the home of the stars
And everybody's got a great body, but mine
That's just fine
Cuz everybody's so shriveled up inside
They're trying to hide behind
Power Bars and Vollyball and Valium

It's a wide wall
That we can't see over now
But that's ok
We're still growing
You know that
Mistakes are allowed when you're a
Satellite

No matter where you go
You can't outrun a cold
No matter what you do
You can't escape the flu
No matter how you try
You can't stop a satellite

In Hollywood there's all these heroes
They're strung out on grace
Half-skinned gypsies
They're crying to leave this place
There are souls stuck in a bone machine
They are dying in crowded rooms
They are dying of blood on bone
They are crushed by ??
Cigarettes and ?? and high hopes

There's a wide wall
That we can't see over now
But that's all right
We're still growing
You know that
Mistakes are allowed when you're a
Satellite

You can't hold back a Satellite
Satellite

Babies on beach blankets headed for Mars

Only One Too - Jewel

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: Only One Too
Album:
Artist: Jewel

I am talking but you can't quite hear what I say
I come closer
but you push me away
I should leave
but I don't have the strength
I can't think

Please can't you see that I am down on my knees
My heart's in you hand
and you squeeze
I want the whole thing
but you give me a part
it's time to start
so I push and you pull
and I don't know which way to go

[Chorus]
Stop Me, Stop me from falling
cause I can see
then I'll love you only
when I am the only one, too

I just can't make you understand
I want your heart but you hold up your hand
you say space is what you need
but you want me
to be true
to just you
while you get to do whatever you want to

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
You'll never stop
it's gotta change
you don't want a lover
you want a world of slaves
I can't resist falling into those arms
those boyish charms
you think I won't leave
yes you're good, but not so good I can't see

[Chorus]

Song's Lyrics >> J >> Jewel

Title: Words Get In The Way
Album:
Artist: Jewel

Come here buttercup
Let me fill you up
Can't you see i'm the blue in your skies
You can tell by the stars in my eyes
Dawn always comes too soon
It hurts me like a bruise
There's a hole in my pillow
Where you used to be
It feels like a hole in the middle of me

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh just take my hand
To have and hold if not obey
Oh, oh, oh say you're still my man
I'll try to find the words to say
That i want you always to stay
To wake up with you every single day
But words get in the way
Words get in the way

Tell your boss you're dead
And let's go back to bed
You make me want to break out in song
But everytime i try it just comes out wrong

[Chorus]

I leave a message on your answering machine
I try to say what i really mean

[Chorus]
