Lyrics

Waited So Long

 

You say that I’m too nice

What the hell does that mean

As if being a jerk

Is gonna fix everything

 

And just because you’re mad

Well, it doesn’t make you’re right

Since when was understanding

Such a horrible fright

 

Because I’ve waited so long

To call you my own

And now that I have you

I just want you gone

 

And you used to be so sweet

You caramelized my world

Until it was all stuck up

With the love of a girl

 

And now it’s too much

You fight and you fuss

Until that sweet, sweet love

Has all turned into dust
 
 

Let Me Get To Know you

 

I can’t stop thinking of you

I’ve tried but it’s no use

And I know I barely know you

And you don’t know if I’m true

 

I feel so bad, because all I had was a chance

But if you give me one more try

I’d love to get it right

Will you let me get to know you

 

This world is a strange one

I didn’t know you when you drove my way

And all I want is to show you

That I’m good enough and this isn’t fake

 

But I made you sad

And it’s not what I wanted to do

If you give me one more try

I’d love to get it right

Will you let me get to know you

 

I’m so glad that I met you

Because when I see you it makes me happy

And if you’d only let me I’d show you

That I’m sorry

 

BEST OF THE BAD

 

I never thought that you had bad luck

It just seemed you didn’t know enough

To keep yourself from being a drag

Turns out you were the best of the bad

 

I guess I never quite understood

Why you were always up to no good

Running around with nothing to loose

Turn out you just had something to prove

 

You make plans and you throw them away      

All because you felt afraid

Hanging around in the same old town

Looking up but feeling down

 

So live it down and find a place

Where you can go to get out of your way

And for once just try being glad

After all you are the best of the bad
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

What I Don’t Understand

 
You know something it’s too good

If you can hold it in the palm of your hand

So you take that something and you let it go         

Before it hurts you man

  

You know the sand it used to be rock

But it held on for far too long

And know I’m standing in the sea

But all I’m feeling is a salty breeze

 

But still I’m thinking

And still I’m feeling

And still I’m singing

About what I don’t understand

 

You know I’m singing
 

NO GOOD

 

I drove in the pouring rain

All the drops were my pain

Falling down from way up high

Falling down from my eyes

 

So let me o

To that place I love

Hell I’d go anywhere

Just as long

Just as long

Just as long

As you don’t follow me there

 

Because you’re no good for me

And I think it’s plain to see

Because I’ll move on and you’ll move in

Then it all happens again

 

I try my best like all the rest

But still some bad shows through

And I ain’t blaming I’m just saying

I think it may be from you

 

Because you’re no good

You’re no good

You’re no good

You’re no good
 

Gone

 

I’d stare at the sun if I could

Because my mind is always wondering

And the clouds roll

Just like the thoughts in my head

How does it shine all of its light and then

 

It’s gone

It’s gone

It’s gone away

 

The night feels cold to the touch

And my hands are always feeling

And the moon hangs

Just like the thoughts in my head

How does it shine all its light and then

 

And what do you say to the light

To make it stay

Stay through the night

 

I’m always thinking about this

How does time exist

How does it freeze and flow

How does it change rearrange

Come and go

And shine its light and then
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
IF YOU LEAVE ME TONIGHT
 
Don’t walk away

When your time has come

And don’t say goodbye I’ve got to run

Just give into the passion

I your innocent fashion
 
Because if you leave tonight

I’ll never get it right

And if the sun leaves the sky

Darkness will cover my eyes
 
So close the door

On the cold outside

And warm up under brighter skies

And tell me dear what do you feel like

Because I’m feeling something so right

 
So catch the train

If you got to go

And run those tracks until you find your flow

And once you do won’t you let me know

So, I can finally let you go
 

LET YOUR LOVE GO

 

I walked down that long road

Once you said to go

But all I found was a rusty old car

All filled up with holes

But it was fuller than our young love

And realize it now

And I’ve just one thing to ask you

How do you turn back now

 

How do you turn back in your mind

Once you’ve found where to go

How do you give back all that time

Once you let your heart grow

Let your love go

 

And I climbed all the way to the top

Once you said how high

But all I found was thin air

No higher could I climb

 

And it was further than I could see

Longer than I’ve been around

And I’ve just one thing to ask you

How do you get back to the ground

And I’ll ask you one more time

So that I can know

And I’ll ask you because you were mine

How do you raise it and let it go

Let your love go
 

Yours Tonight

 

The sky shows through my eyes tonight

And I’m holding you underneath the starlight

The moon was creeping and you were almost sleeping

And I felt so right my soul is yours tonight

 

We talked and dreamed all night without a care

 

And the spring breeze sent me the smell of your hair

And I looked in your eyes

Something jumped inside

And I felt so right

My soul is yours tonight

 

It’s amazing how you suit me

The way you hang on my mind

Your emotion runs right through me

Leaves me thinking all the time

About you

 

This feels so unreal like I’m floating in a dream

But I can still feel you laying next to me

The moon was creeping and you were almost sleeping

And I felt so right

My soul is yours tonight
