song lyrics

"I Won't Give Up"

When I look into your eyesIt's like watching the night sky

Or a beautiful sunriseWell, there's so much they hold

And just like them old starsI see that you've come so far

To be right where you areHow old is your soul?

Well, I won't give up on usEven if the skies get roughI'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your spaceTo do some navigating

I'll be here patiently waitingTo see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burnSome even fall to the earth

We've got a lot to learnGod knows we're worth it

No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easilyI'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make

Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to useThe tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake

And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intendFor us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn

We had to learn how to bend without the world caving inI had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am

I won't give up on usEven if the skies get roughI'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up, still looking up.

Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)

We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

"She Was Mine"(feat. Jesse Barrera)

[Jesse:]So I hopped on a train,Three in the afternoon,

I don't know when I'm coming back,But I hope that it's soon,

See I never thought, never thought, that I'd have to leave your side, your

side.

[AJ:]It's only physically,

But know that you will be on my mind,Twenty four hours at a time,

'Cause in my eyes you were mine, you were mine.

[Both:]No matter where you go,

I won't be very far,'Cause in my head I'll be right there

where you are,'Cause love has no distance baby,

Love has no distance babyNo, not when it comes to you and me.

[AJ:]See she wrote me a letter,

Said the weather wasn't better,But she said that she was doing fine,

I wanna see you face to face,That's what she wrote to me that day,

And I knew that it was all a sign.

[Jesse:]So I wrote back with this song,Promise it won't be too long,

Wanna make up for all our lost time,'Cause in my eyes you were mine, you

were mine.




Love has no distance babyNo, not when it comes to you and me.

[Jesse:]So I'm going through these boxes.

My life's gone off track.'Cause it's been three years.

She hasn't written back.But in my eyes.She's still mine.

[AJ:]And I know it sounds so stupid,

To be waiting this long,But I'm still in love and I know I'm not

wrong,'Cause in my eyes,

She was mine.




Love has no distance babyNo, not when it comes to you and

No matter where you go,I won't be very far,

'Cause in my head I'll be right there where you are,

'Cause love has no distance baby,Love has no distance baby

No, not when it comes to you and me.

My Boo

There's always that one personThat will always have your heart

You'll never see it coming'Cause you're blinded from the startKnow that you're that one for meIt's clear for everyone to seeOh baby ooh you'll always be my boo

I don't know bout cha'llBut I know about us and uhThis is the only wayWe know how to rockI don't know bout cha'llBut I know about us and uhThis is the only wayWe know how to rock

Do you remember girlI was the one who gave you your first kiss'Cause I remember girlI was the one who said put your lips like thisEven before all the fame and People screaming your nameGirl I was there and you were my baby

[Chorus]It started when we were younger girlYou were mine my booNow another brother's taking overBut its still in your eyes my booEven though we used to argue it's alrightI know we haven't seen each otherIn awhile but you will always be my boo

I was in love with you when we were youngerYou were mine my booAnd I see it from time to timeI still feel like my booAnd I can see it no matterHow I try to hide my booEven though there's another man

Bat your eyes girl. Be otherworldly. Count your blessings. Seduce a stranger. What's so wrong with being happy? Kudos to those who see through sickness yeah

Over and over and over and over

She woke in the morning. She knew that her life had passed her by She called out a warning. Don't ever let life pass you by.

I suggest we Learn to love ourselves, Before its made illegal When will we learn, When will we change Just in time to see it all come down

Those left standing will make millions Writing books on ways it should have been

She woke in the morning. She knew that her life had passed her by She called out a warning. Don't ever let life pass you by.

Floating in this cosmic Jacuzzi We are like frogs oblivious To the water starting to boil, No one flinches and we all float face down

She woke in the morning. She knew that her life had passed her by She called out a warning. Don't ever let life pass you by. Pass you by.

"Pardon Me"

Pardon me while I burst Pardon me while I burst

A decade ago, I never thought I would be.

A twenty three on the verge of spontaneous combustion. Woe-is-me

But I guess that it comes with the territory.

An ominous landscape of never-ending calamity.

I need you to hear. I need you to see. That I have had all I can take

And exploding seems like a definite possibility

To me So Pardon me while I burst into

flames. I've had enough of the world, and its

people's mindless games So Pardon me while I burn, and rise

above the flame Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be

the same.

Not, two days ago I was having a look in a book

And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees I said I can relate

Cause lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed

vacation from. The burdens of the planet earth, like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of

being in 3-D... And thinking so much differently.

Pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world, and it's

people's mindless games Pardon me while I burn, and rise

above the flame

Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same.

Never be the same...yeah. Pardon me while I burst into flames.

Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me. So pardon me while I burst into

flames. I've had enough of the world, and it's

people's mindless games So pardon me while I burn, and rise

above the flame Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be

the same. Pardon me, never be the same. Yeah

"Incomplete"

Bright lights, fancy restaurantsEverything in this world that a man could wantGot a bank account bigger than the law should allowStill I'm lonely now

Pretty faces from the covers of the magazinesFrom their covers to my covers wanna lay with meFame and fortune still can't findJust a grown man runnin' out of time

Even though it seems I have everythingI don't wanna be a lonely foolAll of the women, all the expensive carsAll of the money don't amount to youSo I can make believe I have everythingBut I can't pretend that I don't seeThat without you girl my life is incompleteSaid without you girl ahhListen

Your perfume, your sexy lingerieGirl I remember it just like it was on yesterdayA Thursday you told me you had fallen in loveI wasn't sure that I was

It's been a year, winter, summer, spring and fallBut bein' without you just ain't livin' ain't nothing at allIf I could travel back in timeI'd relive the days you were mine

Even though it seems I have everythingI don't wanna be a lonely foolAll of the women, all the expensive carsAll of the money don't amount to youI can make believe I have everythingBut I can't pretend that I don't seeThat without you girl my life is incompleteOh yeah that without you girl ahh

I just can't help lovin' youBut I loved you much too lateI'd give anythingAnd everythingTo hear you sayThat you'll stay

Even though it seems I have everythingI don't wanna be a lonely fool

All of the women, all the expensive carsAll of the money don't amount to youI can make believe I have everythingBut I can't pretend that I don't seeThat without you girl my life is incomplete

Even though it seems I have everythingI don't wanna be a lonely foolAll of the women, all the expensive carsAll of the money don't amount to youI can make believe I have everythingBut I can't pretend that I don't seeThat without you girl my life is incomplete

Without you girlWithout you girl my lifeWithout you girl my life, my life is incompleteWithout you girl my life is incompleteOh yeah, my life is incompleteOh yeah, yeah, yeah

"Englishman In New York"

I don't drink coffee I take tea my dearI like my toast done on one side

And you can hear it in my accent when I talk

I'm an Englishman in New York

See me walking down Fifth AvenueA walking cane here at my side

I take it everywhere I walkI'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien I'm a legal alienI'm an Englishman in New York


If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said

Then he's the hero of the dayIt takes a man to suffer ignorance and

smileBe yourself no matter what they say



Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety

You could end up as the only oneGentleness, sobriety are rare in this

societyAt night a candle's brighter than the

sun

Takes more than combat gear to make a man

Takes more than a license for a gunConfront your enemies, avoid them

when you canA gentleman will walk but never run

If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said

Then he's the hero of the day

It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile

Be yourself no matter what they say



"Love You Like A Love Song"

[Verse 1]It's been said and done

Every beautiful thought's been already sung

And I guess right now here's another one

So your melody will play on and on, with the best of 'em

You are beautiful, like a dream come alive, incredible

A sinful, miracle, lyricalYou've saved my life again

And I want you to know baby

[Chorus]I, I love you like a love song, babyI, I love you like a love song, babyI, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-

peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a love song, babyI, I love you like a love song, babyI, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

[Verse 2]Constantly, boy you play through my

mind like a symphonyThere's no way to describe what you

do to meYou just do to me, what you do

And it feels like I've been rescuedI've been set free

I am hypnotized by your destinyYou are magical, lyrical, beautifulYou are... And I want you to know

baby



I, I love you like a (love song baby) love song, baby

I, I love you like a (love song baby) love song, baby

I, I love you (I love you, I love you) like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat (like a love song)

[Bridge]No one compares

You stand alone, to every record I ownMusic to my heart that's what you are

A song that goes on and on



I, I love you like a love song, babyI, I love you like a love song, babyI, I love you like a love song, baby

I love you...like a love song...

"Payphone"(feat. Wiz Khalifa)

I'm at a payphone trying to call homeAll of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone, baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?

Yeah, I, I know it's hard to rememberThe people we used to be...It's even harder to picture,

That you're not here next to me.

You say it's too late to make it,But is it too late to try?

And in our time that you wastedAll of our bridges burned down

I've wasted my nights,You turned out the lights

Now I'm paralyzed.Still stuck in that timeWhen we called it love

But even the sun sets in paradise




If "Happy Ever After" did exist,I would still be holding you like this

[Explicit:] All those fairy tales are full of shit

[Clean:] All those fairy tales are full of it.

[Explicit:] One more fucking love song, I'll be sick.

[Clean:] One more stupid love song, I'll be sick

Oh, you turned your back on tomorrow'Cause you forgot yesterday.I gave you my love to borrow,

But you just gave it away.

You can't expect me to be fine,I don't expect you to careI know I've said it before

But all of our bridges burned down.

I've wasted my nights,You turned out the lights

Now I'm paralyzed.Still stuck in that timeWhen we called it love

But even the sun sets in paradise.







[Explicit:] One more fucking love song,

I'll be sick.[Clean:] One more stupid love song, I'll

be sickNow I'm at a payphone

[Clean radio version verse:]Yeah, yeah, now baby don't hang up,

So I can tell you what you need to know,

Baby I'm begging you just please don't go,

So I can tell you what you need to know

[Explicit version verse (Wiz Khalifa):]Man, fuck that shit

I'll be out spending all this moneyWhile you're sitting round wonderingWhy it wasn't you who came up from

nothing,Made it from the bottom

Now when you see me I'm stunning,And all of my cars start with a push of

a buttonTelling me the chances I blew up

Or whatever you call it,Switch the number to my phone

So you never could call it,Don't need my name on my shirt,

You can tell it I'm ballin.Swish, what a shame could have got

pickedHad a really good game but you

missed your last shotSo you talk about who you see at the

topOr what you could have saw but sad to

say it's over for.Phantom pulled up valet open doorsWiz like go away, got what you was

looking forNow it's me who they want, so you can

go and take

That little piece of shit with you.







[Explicit:] One more fucking love song, I'll be sick.

[Clean:] One more stupid love song, I'll be sick

Now I'm at a payphone...

"Your Body Is A Wonderland"

We got the afternoonYou got this room for twoOne thing I've left to do

Discover meDiscovering you

One mile to every inch ofYour skin like porcelain

One pair of candy lips andYour bubblegum tongue

'Cause if you want loveWe'll make it

Swimming a deep seaOf blankets

Take all your big plansAnd break 'em

This is bound to be a while

Your body Is a wonderlandYour body is a wonder (I'll use my

hands)Your body Is a wonderland

Something 'bout the way the hair falls in your face

I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase

You tell me where to go andThough I might leave to find it

I'll never let your head hit the bedWithout my hand behind it

you want love?We'll make it

Swimming a deep seaOf blankets

Take all your big plansAnd break 'em

This is bound to be a while


hands)Your body Is a wonderland

Damn babyYou frustrate me

I know you're mine all mine all mineBut you look so good it hurts

sometimes


hands)Your body Is a wonderlandYour body is a wonderland

"Wonderwall"

Today is gonna be the dayThat they're gonna throw it back to

youBy now you should've somehow

Realized what you gotta doI don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the streetThat the fire in your heart is out

I'm sure you've heard it all beforeBut you never really had a doubtI don't believe that anybody feels

The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I wouldLike to say to you

But I don't know how

Because maybeYou're gonna be the one that saves

meAnd after all

You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the dayBut they'll never throw it back to you

By now you should've somehowRealized what you're not to doI don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I doAbout you now

And all the roads that lead you there were winding

And all the lights that light the way are blinding

There are many things that I would like to say to you

But I don't know how

I said maybeYou're gonna be the one that saves

meAnd after all


I said maybeYou're gonna be the one that saves

meAnd after all


Said maybeYou're gonna be the one that saves

meYou're gonna be the one that saves

meYou're gonna be the one that saves

me
