Waitin' On You
I’m waitin’ for a good time I’m waitin’ for the bad
I’m waitin for sunshine waitin’ to be had
I’m waitin’ for Summer I’m waitin’ for Winter
I’m waitin’ on you you’re waitin’ on me
I’m waitin for the truth
Well don’t be crazy and don’t be shy
If I’m feeling lazy just might make you cry
My belly’s empty my wallet too
My heart is torn to pieces and you’re the glue
Your lies are gonna get you, gonna hurt this time
Bring down the curtain sure gonna be a crime
You promised something but it’s all the same
We're waitin' on you you're watin' on us
We’re waitin' for the change
You’re bad for business, you’re bad for style
Why do you tease me make me wait a while?
You don’t know nothing I already knew
I don’t know why I waste my time on the likes of you
In My Arms Tonight
Driving down the highway in the dark of night
Weaving back and forth passing every single car in sight
Speedometer says I’m 20 past the limit but it
Doesn’t seem fast enough to ease my rising spirit
‘Cause it’s been too long already and countin’ each mile
Ain’t nothing gonna stop me from seeing your smile
And I’m gonna hold you in my arms tonight, my love!
Yes, I’m gonna hold you in my arms tonight, my love!
I know you’re still waiting for me
But I don’t fully understand why
‘Cause I know I have to leave you again
But all that really matters is now
It’s a never ending game that we play
But it’s worth it on the nights like this
‘Cause I’m gonna hold you in my arms tonight, my love!
Yes, I’m gonna hold you in my arms tonight, my love!
First Desire
Lyrics by Fredrico Garcia Lorca
En la mañana verde,
quería ser corazón.
Y en la tarde caída
quería ser mi voz.
In the green morning
I wanted to be a heart.
Wanted to be a heart.
And in the ripe evening
I wanted to be a nightingale
Wanted to be a nightingale
In the glimmering morning
I wanted to be something more
Wanted to be something more
In the dwindling evening
I wanted to make a stand
Wanted to make a stand
Soul, turn orange-colored.
Soul, turn the color of love.
In the vivid morning
I wanted to be myself
Wanted to be a heart
And at the end of the evening
I wanted to be my voice.
Wanted to be a nightingale
Soul, turn orange-colored
Soul, turn the color of love
This Is Why We Live
Every time I see you
Every time I hear your name and
Every time you smile
Every time you look my way
Everyone who's happy
Everyone who's felt this way and
Everyone we meet
Everyone who's touched our hearts
Oh, This is why we live
Everything around us
Everything we call our own and
Everything we love
Everything we love to hate
'Cause every moment counts
Especially the one we're in
'Cause every moment counts
Especially the one we're in
Oh, This is why we live
Just My Dream
Lyrics by Charles Auerbach
You’re a dream that fades in the night
There I wake until the morning light
Nowhere to hide no way to disguise
The memories of all your lies
You’re a dream that fades as I wake
Leave me there with nothing but a heartache
Happy times like a mist in the wind
Blows away likes it’s never been
You left me there, took all I owned
Left me high and dry, picked to the bone
But when you left, walked out my door
Was worth it all and so much more
You’re a dream that makes me feel
All the pain so long concealed
Things you do the secrets you keep
All the nights I try to sleep
You left me there, took all I owned
Left me high and dry, picked to the bone
But when you left, walked out my door
Was worth it all and so much more
The Devil I Know
Let me tell you a story about a girl I know
She lives inside of her own desolate world
She stuck with this guy she don’t love
He don’t treat her like a gentleman should
I ask her why she stays when she knows
I’ll treat her better than he ever could
She always just answers the same
She says; “The devil I know is better than most anything else.”
Well she ain’t doin’ no one no good
Throwin’ coins down the wishin’ well
‘cause he’s always gonna treat her the same
And he’s always gonna put her through hell
I ask her why she stays when she knows
I’ll treat her better than he ever could
She always just answers the same
She says; “The devil I know is better than most anything else.”
Sad Song
This is a sad song about everything that went wrong
Things I said but didn’t really mean, things you did I wish I hadn’t seen
Solace in knowing you’re better off without me
Even though I did it all for you
I did it all for you
This is a sad song about how I’m not strong
Times we laughed, times we cried, times like these I wish I had died
Finally I see how you’re better off without me
Even though I did it all for you
I did it all for you
Yesterday's News
I saw you running away your head was twirling like an owl
Who just took a lollypop from some kids in a black and white cartoon show
I know I never knew no one, till I knew that I knew I knew you
But your story’s winding down like a handle cranked phonograph player
You never really stood a chance. Discarded at first glance
Obsolete before you hit the market. Out dated piece of shhh….
I don’t need you anymore. He can have you.
You’re yesterday’s news to me now.
I got a letter from you. When it got here I’d already found someone
Better than you, someone who knows about email too
Your words were hard to make out, like an old cassette that was
Left in the sun with the windows up on the dash of your’73 Ford Pinto
You never really stood a chance. Discarded at first glance
Obsolete before you hit the market. Out dated piece of shhh….
I don’t need you anymore. He can have you.
You’re yesterday’s news to me now.
When I'm Gone
Now don’t shed a tear for me my dear
I’m already gone ain’t been here for years
Don’t let your eyes turn red from the tears you shed
Don’t blame yourself for any words you said
Now don’t worry none, your Earth will still spin
The seasons still change and you’ll laugh again
When I’m gone. Yeah, I’m gone, you’ll carry on
Make It Through The Night
I found you floating in a pool of your own sorrows
Your eyes were closed but I could see inside your soul I discovered
So I thought I’d wake you up just to tell you “you can rest now
Go ahead and close your eyes I will keep you warm”
It’s easy to die on this side of town
It’s hard to live when you’ve got nothing to live for
I could go forever with you by my side
One kiss from you and then my
My heart will start to cry
I can still taste your lips like a longing for home cooked meal
When you’re on the road and you search all day to no avail
Because all you can find is an Arby’s and a Cracker Barrel
And neither will do because there’s no substitutin’ for you
It’s easy to die on this side of town
It’s hard to live when you’ve got nothing to live for
I could go forever with you by my side
One kiss from you and then my
My heart will start to cry
I’m already content with you
‘Cause everything you do
Makes me think I’m better than I really am
I don’t know how you pull that slight of hand
But I think you ought to show me
I wanna lay down next you
Only you, you’re the one who started just for fun
Now I think I might be down in for the long run, I don’t know
But I promise I’ll be gentle though
It’s easy to die on this side of town
It’s hard to live when you’ve got nothing to live for
I could go forever with you by my side
One kiss from you and then my
My heart will start to cry
Just gotta make it through the night
Just gotta make it through the night
Just gotta make it through the night
Come the morning everything’s gonna be alright
Shades Of Grey
Lyrics by Charles Auerbach
When daylight fades and shadows fall the air is still no wind at all
No need to speak or make a sound, you’re all alone no one’s around
With all illusions cast aside, you’re naked with no place to hide
The black and white just fade away, revealing life in shades of grey
Like walking over shifting sand plays havoc with you best laid plains
When confidence gives way to doubt, when nothing that you try works out
You’re caught up in the great unknown with all the kings who’ve been dethroned
Who all believed they knew they way till life dissolved in shades of grey
Remember that a man is known by how he acts not what he owns
By who he loves an cares about, not by his fears and all his doubts
And if he stands agains the tide alone with no one by his side
Then win or lose he’s won the day because life is really shades of grey
