You Never

If you keep coming around,
it´ll be more difficult to say goodbye.
If I had known all that I know now
I would´ve been more sensible and nice.

You never expect to say goodbye.
You never want to say good night.
You never think that you would.
You never expect to wake up at night
and find that they´ve left your side.
You never want to cry
Cause they´ve been so good.

Oh,oh
if you could help me see
where I went wrong.
Cause I'm not sure exactly
where I belong.
Cause you haunt me in my dreams
but make a beautiful sleep for me.

You never want to say goodbye.
You never want to cry
cause you never want to lie...
for me.
And I never want to know
I never want to let go
Cause I never knew you loved me so...
tenderly.

You never,
you never
told me where you'd be
when you'd leave.
You never
you never
told me
if I would see...
you again.

What About Them?

Hey, what can I say
if they won't listen?
Let's talk about today.
It's our business.

I can't change their minds
(even if I try).
How can I make them see the light
(if it doesn't shine)?
I'm about myself and what's mine.
Forget about the rest of mankind.

But what about them?
They're hanging on the end of a limb.
How cruel we've all been.
What message are we trying to send?
Think about the children.
(Their chances are growing slim.)
What about them?

They're growing so
before my eyes.
I don't want to let go,
but soon you'll have to realize.

That
You can't start a fire
(without a flame).
If it doesn't have a desire
(it'll stay the same)
And you aren't the one to blame.
And you aren't the one to be shamed.

But what about them?
They're hanging on the end of a limb.
How cruel we've all been.
What message are we trying to send?
(Their chances are growing slim.)
What about them?

And what else is there to say?
What else can I do today?
This is a dangerous game we're trying to play.
We're lost in the dark and don't know our way.

STUPID KISSES

Why does the best always happen to her?
Is she life's favorite flower?
Why can't I forget this?
All it was was a kiss.

Hey, why don't you listen?
You're too busy to even pay attention!
Tell me
why did you give in?
Maybe I'm too stubborn to get it.
They're playing around in my head.
All of these stupid kisses!

I've grown so mad
ever since I realized you're not coming back.
But I don't have to blame you.
But I'm just stuck and don't know what to do.
I pray to God I wish I knew the truth.

Hey, why don't you listen?
You're too busy to even pay attention!
Tell me
why did you give in?
Maybe I'm too stubborn to get it.
They're playing around in my head.
All of those stupid kisses!

When I see you,
I see my life slip by.
I wish I could read your mind.
And be your type.
I think I've committed a crime.
I think I've crossed the line.
I wish I could turn back time.
Then you'd be mine-
All mine!

Hey, why didn't I listen?
I was too busy to even pay attention.
I ask,
why did I give in?
Maybe I'm too stubborn to get it.
All of these stupid kisses.
Have got me thinking about all you've said.
They're playing around in my head.
And I could have been the one getting all of these...
precious kisses instead.

So Personal

Too much going on.
How can we stay strong?
What's the meaning of this song
if you get the interpretation wrong?

Too much "he said, she said".
I think about it while laying in the bed.
Seeing them together makes me sick in the head.
I wish he loved me instead.

So confused from the past.
How long will this last?
Maybe I'm a step ahead and going too fast.
Maybe I have my hopes up too high for anyone to grasp.

Am I too hard on you?
I don't know what to do.
I'm too embarrassed to come to You.
Just help me through.

Oh, and how I love you.
Oh, and how I miss you.
Oh, and how I need You.
Oh, and how bad I want you.

So personal,
so personal.
I'm trying to be careful
not to blow my cover.
Cause you don't want to know what's up under.

Keeping It Together

Try hard as we might.
Try not to start a fight
cause I can't control myself.

Lost in a confusing light.
Just one slash of a knife
can be my source of harm or help.

Keeping it together
can be one of the hardest things to do
When we're together,
whenever I'm with you.
My little piece of heaven
has fallen through.
Oh,oh,oh,oh
Just keeping it together
has no chance of being soon.

Try hard as hell.
Try not to fail.
I can only do what I can.

But my mind is a boat without a sail.
I've gone crazy, can't you tell?
Tell me, do you understand?

I think I'm gonna go crazy (one of these days).
I think I'm gonna go crazy (totally insane).
I think I'm gonna go crazy (lost forever).
I think I'm gonna go crazy (tryna keep it together)!

By the Bullet

By the bullet.
By the gun.
You're so full of it-
the light of the sun.

Cause I'm in love with you,
but you never knew.
And I don't know what to do
when all that's killing me is the truth.

You stole my heart.
And you're running
and leaving me behind.
I should have known from the start.
But love is so cunning.
And it's left me to die.

I love feeling this way,
but I never thought to say.
It would be more than just okay
if I could have you to stay.

Die (in this dark room).
Lie (without you)
Why (must I go through)
...This alone....
I want you to hold.

By the bullet
By the gun.
Why'd you do it?
Why'd we have to love?

Something I Can't Get Over

It's always raining in my head.
I wish the sun would shine instead.
But as long as I'm in bed,
crying over you,
there's nothing I can do.

And I'm looking out of the window
hoping to find an answer.
Why do I love you so?
It's something I can't get over.
Tell me,'cause I need you so badly.
Without you, I'm never happy.
And it's something I can't get over.
It's something I won't get over.

Now that we've gone our seperate ways,
there's nothing good to look for anyway.
No matter what you try to say,
without you, I can't be okay.

Cause it hurts inside to be alone.
To have to depend to survive on your own.
Without your one true love to consol.
I'm here watching my life go...

It's somethig I won't get over. (No matter how hard I try)
It's something I can't get over. (Not even with all my might.)
It's something I won't get over. (This feeling I have inside.)
And it won't be over 'til the day I die.

After Last July

All I have is the voice
to remember her by
and the visions of her smile
in my mind.
"Just let it go"
That's what everybody says,
but I can't.
It's not that easy always.

Let's say she's still alive.
What would she say?
Why, everyday, do I act this way?
She flows through my blood inside.
Let's say she's still here.
What would she do?
Would she wipe my tears
and ease my fears?
And she beats in my heart inside.

And it's been 9 months
since I kissed her hand
and felt her skin.
But it's been fun
to cherish all the moments within.
Just let it pass.
That's what I try to do everyday,
but I can't.
I try to have her wake,
but she still lays.

All I have are the memories
that we shared.
And they let me know she cared.
"Don't dwell",
that's what she says,
but we both know well,
it won't be the same...

Oh, no, it won't be the same

Spero Stai Bene

Spero stai bene.
Cause it's been so long
too long to count the days.
Sento la tua mancanza.
Oh, I miss you everyday.

Breathing was easy
when I was with you.
Living, instead of grieving-
Now what do I do?
Ora che cosa faccio?

And here.
in lonely, empty world.
It's more quiet than before.
Il sole e le stelle
watch over me
when I sleep...

Dreaming was easy
when you were here with me.
Seeing was intriguing.
Now what memories can I keep?
Ora che cosa faccio?

Oh, somewhere, wherever you are.
Oh, there, you take care.
I'll rest on your arm.
I hope you are well.
Wherever you are,
I hope you are well.

Catching Butterflies

A little girl,
no more than 6 years old,
stands out in the yard.
Blowing dandilions,
sipping honey suckles,
dealing with all the time she's got.

And she likes catching butterflies in her net.
She thinks you're the sun in her eyes
or the gold around her neck.
She likes the color blue
if you guessed.
She knows more about you
than the flowers on her dress.

This sweet girl,
with no more than lent in her hair,
frolics and calls it "dancing with the air".
Well, I never knew her name,
I just played her games
and put her picture in a frame.

The girl who catches butterflies and
then lets them go.
It may come as a surprise,
if you knew she was alone.
Catching butterflies without a care
in the world-
a little girl no more than 6 years old.

She knows, she knows, she knows...
about catching butterflies.

Cups

I saw you.
How could you?
Do you have a heart inside?
Don't say you didn't mean it
oh, babe, cause I won't believe it.
Face it, you did wrong.

I saw cups fly.
The sound of them shatter on the floor
still plays in my mind
and how she cried,
when you left out the door.

It scares me.
It tears between
my emotions for you.
I seemed so happy
until I found out what it is that you do.

I saw cups fly.
The sound of love getting ready to die
still shows the light
and how she lied,
when you said goodbye.

The Night We Let Go

I was at a party with my friends.
Before it started, I knew this was the end.
I saw you, baby.
You looked up with those blue eyes.
The same ones you gave me when you lied.

On the night we let go,
I saw some things I never thought I would
and let me know
all I should've been told.
Thank you for the night we let go.

Was it a foolish mistake I made?
Why was I so stupid of the price I paid?
Well, things cost alot
, but not as much as I had lost.
Silly, how was the game?

You looked up with those blue eyes.
You caught me by surprise.
I should have realized.
How dumb was I...
on the night we let go?

Deadly Voices in Song

I can't sleep here
alone in fear.
I hear voices
voices coming from the dark.
They're not haunting ghosts,
but with all the noises,
you'd swear the most
out of it all.

I hear babies
innocent babies.
Their blood shed there,
dead on the floor.
Oh, my ladies.
Precious ladies,
why couldn't you think before?

You lied with him.
You tried again
to correct all you did.
But, there, he left
you wallowing in your sin.
And you didn't think then...

All of this happened
in just one night.
I heard you screaming through the fight.
You ask me why the melody
of this song
is so strong
to prove you wrong
and show the light.

I can't sleep here.
Alone with fear.
I hear voices
Deadly voices in song.

My Love

Hold my hand
take my heart.
Walk along the sand.
Watch the waves split apart.

oh,oh,oh, oh
my love, be every part of my life.
oh, oh, oh, oh
my love, keep me here tonight.

Settle down low
behold the stars.
Guide me where you go.
Show me who you are.

oh,oh,oh,oh
My love, be my shining light.
oh, oh, oh, oh
My love, I'm yours tonight.
oh,oh,oh,oh- my love.
oh,oh,oh,oh-my love, my love

Your eyes are bright
like the sun in the morn.
Your touch is so warm.
Captivation; it's how it's done.

Sometimes (I Wanna Cry)

Oh, oh
something comes over me
and it doesn't feel too bad.
In fact, it's pleasing to know you're the one I have.
In my mind
I may feel confused,
lost without a trace.
But somewhere in the blue,
I see your face.

And sometimes
I just wanna cry.
and sometimes I wanna laugh
and think of the times.
Is it my fault that you make me smile
my tears away.
And sometimes I wish we could save that day.

yeah, yeah
Something takes me by surprise
and it doesn't seem too bad.
By the way, by the look in your eyes,
it seems dreams were all you had.

See me.
I can see you.
As heaven opens up its doors,
Angels come through.

I wish we could save...
I wish we could save...
I wish we could save... that day.

She'd Love Like a Mother

Somehow you'll learn.
You don't have scars now, but they'll burn.
You tried to flirt with me.
'PlayeD with my emotions dangerously.
Now my heart's broken completely.

Baby, why did you tell me that you were alone?
You had us by your side.
And why did you tell me that she went home
and there she is outside?

Could it have been better to love her
cause she was your lover?
Could it have been better to mold her?
Cause she'd love like a mother.

She'd give you everything.
She opened up her doors.
Gave it all up of coarse.
And you left while she was sleeping.
And here you are with me.

Don't you lie to me.
Don't you lie to her.
We can see through your eyes easily.
You can't really heal all you hurt.

Blue Moments

'Tis all the words we used to say are all in my mind
for all of time.
And the way you'd call my name
and why I came.
It's all the same.

Well, you've moved on to another blue life.
and time is blue like the sky.
Tears'd fall from your blue eyes.
Oh, blue moments.
These blue moments are all mine.

Here in a room of maroon and white
I remember what it was like.
Millions of colors disguised in one hue.
The blood that ran through you.

But you've moved on to another new life.
And time stands still like the sky.
and the stars, below, are your eyes.
Oh, blue moments.
These blue moments are all mine.

Just another sip before you.
I felt a kiss from you.
And this feels like another blue...moment.

Tis all the words we used to say are all in my mind-for all of time.
Oh, blue moments, precious blue moments.
These blue moments are all mine.
