1. I JUST WANT TO BE YOUR EVERYTHING
For so long
You and me
Been finding each other
For so long
And the feeling
That I feel for you
Is more then strong, girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more
Then you're asking for
Your love will turn the key
Darling mine
I would wait forever
For those lips of wine
Build my world
Around you, darling
This love will shine girl
Watch it and see
If you give a little more
Then you're asking for
Your love
Will turn the key
I, I just want to be
Your everything
Open up the heaven
In your heart
And let me be
The things
You are to me
And not some puppet
On a string
Oh
If I stay here
Without you
Darling, I will die
I want you
Laying in the love
I have to bring
I'd do anything
To be your everything
Darling for so long
You and me
Been finding each other
For so long
And the feeling
That I feel for you
Is more then strong girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more
Then you're asking for
Your love will turn the key

Under it all, this heart of mine
is ready to fall for you anytime.
I could be all you needed

and I'll be patiently waiting
for you, love isn't fading
Save this heart of mine
woah woah
Every time i look in your eyes
can't control my heart, I'm so high.
I should be okay but I'm just so afraid
of this heart of mine, blind,
following love down the line.
I can't explain but don't mind
this heart of mine.
So if its alright, I'm gonna
sing to you into the night
like you want me to
It could be all we needed
I believe it.
I wanted more then just alright
shaking under your street light
I am right outside so come,
oh come on out here.
Every time i look in your eyes
can't control my heart, I'm so high.
I should be okay but I'm just so afraid
of this heart of mine, blind,
following love down the line.
I can't explain but don't you mind,
don't you mind
oh, this heart of mine.
oh oh oh
fall on me, like i fall on you
like i want you to
Every time i look in your eyes
can't control my heart, I'm so high.
I should be okay so why am i afraid
of this heart of mine, its blind,
I'll follow your love all the time.
I finally know that you don't mind
this heart of mine.

And Ive never seen you before

5. IF I WERE YOU
If I were you I would fall for me
Keep every promise, answer my calls
And I would never let you down, no
If I were you I would turn that car around
Come speeding back tonight
And I, I would wonder how
I got so lucky that I'm right here with you
If I were you I know exactly what to do
If you wanna go to sleep I got a lullaby
I know exactly what to say and i would do what you need
If I were you, I would fall for me
Yeah, I would fall for me
If I were you I would drop out of school
Forget the grades, you'd have it made
You'll see, you belong to me
If I could make you realize that all you want is all
I've got
Please stay here and don't ever leave, no
I'm so happy that I'm right here with you
Loving you is really all I've wanted to do
I would take you by the hand and I would keep holding
tight
And if you wanna go to sleep I got a lullaby
I know exactly what to say and I would do what you need
If I were you I'd fall
Again and again and know if you have any doubt
And if you ever for a second forget what you've found
I'll show you the world, I'll make you believe
If I were you, I would fall for me
I'd fall hard and fast and I'd never look back if I
were you
Just close your eyes and you'll see, yeah
I would take you by the hand and I would keep holding
tight
If you wanna go to sleep I got a lullaby
I know exactly what to say and I would do what you need
If I were you, I'd fall again and again
And know if you have any doubt
And if you ever for a second forget what you've found
I'll show you the world, I'll make you believe
If I were you, I would fall for me, for me, for me,
yeah
I would fall for me, for me, for me, oh
I'd fall for me, for me, for me, yeah
I would fall for me, for me, for me
If I were you, I would fall for me.

6. SWEET MEDICINE
feel a little lost
I feel a little blue
Wish I could dim the lights and find my arms around you
Bury all this space that keeps two hearts apart
And for a moment we'd be diamonds in the dark
Coz you've got it
My reason, my only hope
Believe me, love
Coz you've got it
I need it, I can't stay away
Coz you're my sweet, sweet medicine baby
You're sweet, sweet all of the time
Oh sweet, sweet medicine save me
Save me tonight, save me tonight
I pull close you close to me and kiss you in the dark
It's been so long who will remember where to start
I'll be there when you need to sing a love song
You sing so beautiful, so beautiful you are
Coz you've got it
My reason, my only hope
Believe me, love
Coz you've got it
I need it, I can't stay away
Coz you're my sweet, sweet medicine baby
You're sweet, sweet all of the time
Oh sweet, sweet medicine save me
Save me tonight, save me tonight
Blue sky, baby, kiss me
Blue sky, blue sky
Babe I need your blue skies
oh.. Coz you've got it
My reason, my only hope
Believe me, love
Coz you've got it
I need it, I can't stay away
Coz you're my sweet, sweet medicine baby
Yeah, you're sweet, sweet all of the time
Oh sweet, sweet medicine save me
Save me tonight, save me tonight
Oh.. Save me tonight

7. THAT'S WHAT I'M HERE FOR
Goodbye Los Angeles you said with some regret
I'll do my best to find a way to help you to forget
I'm glad you made your way back here to find a better day
Seems like you're getting a little closer to okay
And if you need someone just to be around
Help put the pieces back that you finally found
That's what I'm here for
That's what I'm here for
When you need a little less
Or you want a little more
That's what I'm here for
That's what I'm here for
I heard you saying that you're finally feeling free
Blowing kisses to the distant memories
Lately I've caught you smiling a little more
You're beautiful, and I'm all yours
And if you need someone just to be around
Help put the pieces back that you finally found
That's what I'm here for
That's what I'm here for
When you need a little less
Or you want a little more
That's what I'm here for
That's why I can hold you just as long as you'll stay
I can tell you what no one would ever say
That it's all right to admit you were wrong
Before you know it, all the scars will be gone
That's what I'm here for
That's what I'm here for
When you need a little less
Or you want a little more
When you need someone to find you
When you're hiding from it all
That's what I'm here for
That's what I'm here for
That's what I'm here for
Oh yeah...

8. FRAGILE
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetimes argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are
Lloras tu y lloro yo
Y el cielo también, y el cielo también
Lloras tu y lloro yo
Que fragilidad, que fragilidad
Lloras tu y lloro yo
Y el cielo también, y el cielo también
Lloras tu y lloro yo
Que fragilidad, que fragilidad
How fragile we are how fragile we are

9. SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW
Oh oh oh oh...
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Why, oh why can't I?
One day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Why, oh why can't I?
Oh oh oh oh...

10. A SONG ABOUT STARS
There are two stars in my sky
And they both burn with the amber light
When my hope in this world gone astray
Don't you go away
There are two stars in your eyes
Burnin' brighter than ever tonight
But you're gonna go away
But don't, don't look away
All my stars, oh, they're gonna fade
And like the brightest star that I see in the sky
You turn my night into day
Don't you go away, go away
What can I do to convince you to stay, all of my days
Don't you go away, go away
Well, there were two stars in my sky
Like the brightest of them all she had to fall
All I remember is her walking away
She's gone away
But don't, don't stay away
I can't last that long in the world all alone without your flame
Your the brightest star that I see in the sky between the night and the day
Don't you go away, go away
What can I do to convince you to stay
All my days, don't you go away
Go away
Yes she's gone away
I don't, don't want her to stay away
All my days
Wish you come back to me
But she's gone, yes, she's gone
Gone away

11. I DON'T WANNA CRY
Once again we sit in silence
After all is said and done
Only emptiness inside us
Baby, look what we've become
We can make a million promises
But we still won't change
It isn't right to stay together
When we only bring each other pain
Chorus:
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in this world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
And I'm giving you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause baby, I don't wanna cry
Too far apart to bridge the distance
But something keeps us hanging on
Pretending not to know the difference
Denying what we had is gone, oohh
Every moment we're together
It's just breaking me down
I know we swore forever
But it hurts too much to stay around
Chorus:
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in this world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
And I'm giving you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause baby, I don't wanna cry
All the magic's gone
There's just a shadow of a memory
Something just went wrong
We can't go on make-believing
Oh, make-believing
And I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in this world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
And I'm giving you my heart and soul
Oh I'm giving you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause baby, I don't wanna cry
Oh no, I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
