"Happy Valentines"

"Happy Valentines"


I found a note in a pair of boots
Post my February oh, oh, two
And I knew it simply had to be from you
It was sweet and frivolous, [?] because you missed me
(Still remember how you kissed me)
You told me you were mine
Yeah, those were happy valentimes

Lada-da-da-da-dadadaaadadadada
Happy Valentine's day

A memory I'll never forget
I went to see our good friend Rhett
Laying at the borders down on the promenade
I walked in to find your eyes
You were so surprised
You told me you were mine
Yeah, those were happy valentimes

Don't go my fair lady, did I chase you away?
Don't know my sweet baby, is there something to say?
This is all out on the table in the middle of the wild array

Lada-da-da-da-dadadaaadadadada
Happy Valentine's day

Don't go my fair lady, did I chase you away?
Don't know my sweet baby, is there something to say?
This is all out on the table in the middle of the wild array

Lada-da-da-da-dadadaaadadadada
Happy Valentine's day

Don't go my fair lady, did I chase you away?
Don't know my sweet baby, is there something to say?
This is all out on the table in the middle of the wild array

Lada-da-da-da-dadadaaadadadada
(Lada-da-da-da-dadadaaadadadada)
Lada-da-da-da-dadadaaadadadada
Happy Valentine's day

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"


Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of Yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough

And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

"Heartache"

"Heartache"


I suppose when my father did everything Oma and Opa said
Did he find his own way?
Couldn't tell you what's in his head
But inside of mine I'm wondering
Did he find his own way?

Days when the weather blends them all together
And I'm losing track of time
Trying to find my own way
What if forever is better than never?
And maybe it's a sign
That I found my own way

I will not let my heart ache
I won't be treading water, waiting on a wave, no no
I will not let my heart ache

No, I never really chased my dream
Never tried to catch a shooting star
I'm not really sure how my dream found me
I guess that's the way you are
Now I'm left with a mystery
Is it always gonna have to be so hard?
If I only ever drag my feet
I guess I'll never get too far

To hold on or let it go
I tell you it's all I know

I will not let my heart ache
I won't be treading water, waiting on a wave, no no
I will not let my heart ache

No, I'm never gonna lose my beat
I take it easy on the weak of heart
I hear you telling me not to speak
So here comes the quiet part
Maybe I never solved the mystery
Is it always gonna have to be so hard?
If I only ever drag my feet
I guess I'll never get too far

To hold on or let it go
I tell you it's all I know

I will not let my heart ache
I won't be treading water, waiting on a wave, no no
I will not let my heart ache
I will not let my heart ache

Up and at 'em
Bright as the start of a brand new day
There's a magic to it, never let it go
Up and at 'em
It's the time when you awake
Something holy to it only you could know

Days when the weather blends them all together
And I'm losing track of time
Trying to find my own way
What if forever is better than never?
And baby, it's a sign
That we found our own way

I will not let my heart ache

There will be no opus (There will be no opus)
No seminal masterpiece to wear around our necks
You know that nothing's hopeless (You know that nothing's hopeless)
Come on, come on, come on

"Hello McFly"

"Hello McFly"


A roll of the dice
A slip of the tongue
I was stirring up the hornets' nest
and finally got me stung
Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Said I'd do the right thing
But the wrong was done
It's over, exuse my grammer
But the fat lady sung
whoa oh whoa oh

And I wish I was Michael J Fox
I'd visit the past
Then come back to the future (Hello McFly)
When I cleaned up my act

Yeah I don't know
What went through my head
Was my conscience shot?
Was it left for dead?

I said I'm sorry
But no one heard
'cause actions (actions) actions
Actions speak louder than words

I think I made God angry
and I'm sure that he's irate
I just hope my remorse was not too little too late
whoa oh whoa oh

Even my track record
He gave me a clean slate
I'm forgiven and I'm livin'
With no sin on my plate
whoa oh whoa oh

And I wish I was Michael J Fox
I'd visit the past
Then come back to the future (Hello McFly)
When I cleaned up my act

Yeah I don't know
What went through my head
Was my conscience shot?
Was it left for dead?

I said I'm sorry
But no one heard
'cause actions (actions) actions
Actions speak louder than words

"Here I Go (Demo)"

"Here I Go (Demo)"


Yeah!
Oh, believe me I have tried
to work this out from the inside
then I finaly realized I need to move on with my life

[Chorus]
Gotta make something happen
not just sit around and wait for it
this place is like a prison I think I'm going to have to make a break for it
whoa-o here I go it's like I made it for the first time
whoa-o here I go and I think it's the first time I felt alive

Yeah! Alive!
I've been so depressed I've been let down
been pushed aside been pushed around
there's one thing that I need
something you can't take from me

[Chorus]
Gotta make something happen
not just sit around and wait for it
this place is like a prison I think I'm going to have to make a break for it
whoa-o here I go it's like I made it for the first time
whoa-o here I go and I think it's the first time I felt alive
whoa-o here I go it's like I made it for the first time
whoa-o here I go and I think it's the first time I felt alive

Move up, move on
you blink I'm gone
we only have one life to live
I'll live it now
you have no doubt
I'll prove you wrong
this is the only thing that I know
so here I go

[Chorus]
whoa-o here I go it's like I made it for the first time
whoa-o here I go and I think it's the first time I felt alive
whoa-o here I go it's like I made it for the first time
whoa-o here I go I think it's the first time I felt alive.

"High Of 75"

"High Of 75"


We were talking together
I said, "what's up with this weather?"
Don't know whether or not
How sad I just got
Was of my own volition.
Or if I'm just missing the sun

And tomorrow, I know,
Will be rainy at best.
And the forecast, I know,
Is that I'll be depressed.

But I'll wait outside
Hoping that I'll catch sight of the sun.

[Chorus:]
Because on and off,
The clouds have fought
Their control over the sky

And lately the weather
Has been so Bi-polar
And Consequently so have I

And now I'm sunny with a High
of 75
Since You took my heavy heart
And made it light

And its funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be alive

[Chorus]

And the temperature is freezing
And then, after dark,
There is a cold frost sweeping
In over my heart

And we might break up
If I don't wake up to the sun

[Chorus]

Sunny with a High of 75
Since You took my heavy heart
And made it light (made it light)

And its funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be...
Alive

"Hoopes I Did It Again"

"Hoopes I Did It Again"


[liner note:]
it's a typical cloudy day in canton, ohio, and the relient k boys are trying to score something to do.
matt t. gives dave's cell a phone call.

[*cell phone ring*]
what's up dude?
i'm getting kind of bored
let's get some food
and then hit movies 4
what's going on?
whats up with all our friends?
let's start a rumor
just to find out where it ends

cause a small town is like a small stage
for teenagers and their drama
instead of playing shows, we'll be showing plays
like 90210 without the beverly hills

well, don't you think (don't you think), don't you think it's high time
that we never settle down (never settle down)
well, don't you think (don't you think), don't you think it's high time
that we get out of this town (get out of this town)
cause if we leave then we just might be okay

hoopes i did it again
i messed everything up, and i think i hurt my friends
hoopes i did it again
relationships that work are things that i can't comprehend

ohio has the flavor of a water chestnut
it's not too crazy and it's not the best but
we're not setting forest fires just out of boredom
i'd rather see a movie if in fact i can afford one

cause a small town is like a small stage
for teenagers and their drama
instead of playing shows, we'll be showing plays
like 90210 without the beverly hills

well, don't you think (don't you think), don't you think it's high time
that we never settle down (never settle down)
well, don't you think (don't you think), don't you think it's high time
that we get out of this town (get out of this town)

cause if we leave then we just might make a difference
and if we leave then we just might be okay
and i don't think it would hurt to get away

hoopes i did it again
i messed everything up, and i think i hurt my friends
hoopes i did it again
relationships that work are things that i can't comprehend

dan bakitus said i'm shallow
he said i've got no integrity
but, i don't know dan bakitus
and dan bakitus, he don't know me

cause we always say in canton
you can't enjoy (canton joy) yourself
well, there's truth to that
but may i add
it's not half bad
and never less than that

cause we always say in canton
you can't enjoy (canton joy) yourself
well, there's truth to that
but may i add
it's not half bad
and never less than that

"Hope For Every Fallen Man (Acoustic)"


[Verse 1:]
As you push it up through the soil
I will shake your filthy hand
You may be dead to me
But that don't mean we can't be friends
Now it's time to get over this
Long as it's clear you understand
That I will never trust a single thing you say again

[Bridge:]
Because the judge of you
Is someone I could never be
Is why you should thank the Lord
That it is Him and it's not me

[Chorus:]
Don't give up, it's not the end
There's hope for every fallen man
To pick themselves up when they think they can't
Because with every passing second comes a second chance

[Verse 2:]
You stole so much from me
And there is nothing left to take
Save a hard-learned lesson
On how to not make the same mistake
And you may be delirious
But that is something that will fade
After you confess that this mess
Is all something that you made.

[Bridge:]
Oh, because the judge of you
Is someone I could never be
Is why you should thank the Lord
That it is Him and it's not me

[Chorus:]
Don't give up, it's not the end
There's hope for every fallen man
To pick themselves up when they think they can't
Because with every passing second comes a second chance
Oh, don't give up, it's not the end
Get back on your feet again
Forgiveness can be given when you think it can't
Cause with every passing second comes a second chance

[Breakdown:]
Oh, oh
Take a good look at yourself and know
You've got yourself a ways to go
But difficult is not impossible
You can take back all the lost control
Take a good look at yourself and see
That you'll emerge eventually
As long as your heart's not too far gone
From the only Thing that can save you from yourself

Forgiveness can be given when you think it can't
Cause with every passing second comes a second chance...

"I Am Understood?"

"I Am Understood?"


Sometimes it's embarrassing to talk to you
To hold a conversation with the only one who sees right through
This version of myself
I try to hide behind
I'll bury my face because my disgrace will leave me terrified

And sometimes I'm so thankful for your loyalty
Your love regardless of
The mistakes I make will spoil me
My confidence is, in a sense, a gift you've given me
And I'm satisfied to realize you're all I'll ever need

[Chorus]
You looked into my life and never stopped
And you're thinking all my thoughts
Are so simple, but so beautiful
And you recite my words right back to me
Before I even speak
You let me know, I am understood

And sometimes I spend my time
Just trying to escape
I work so hard so desperately, in an attempt to create space
Cause I want distance from the utmost important thing I know
I see your love, then turn my back and beg for you to go

[Chorus]

You're the only one who understands completely
You're the only one knows me yet still loves completely

And sometimes the place I'm at is at a loss for words
If I think of something worthy I know that its already yours
And through the times I've faded and you've outlined me again
You've just patiently waited, to bring me back and then

[Chorus]

The noise has broken my defense
Let me embrace salvation
Your voice has broken my defense
Let me embrace salvation
