"Burn Baby Burn"

"Burn Baby Burn"



Well you were thinking things were pretty fine
But now he’s saying that you’re not his kind
You gave so much and never asked for more
You can’t believe he’s walking out that door

You got lost in the heat of the fight
And the sparks turn to fire
Is that smoke in your eye’s, or the tears that you hide?
He can leave when he wants
‘Cause you still got your pride

Let him burn baby burn, he’s out of control
Broke your heart, but he lost his soul
Burn baby burn, until nothing remains
When the hurting stops, you start all over again

You look for reasons, try to understand
This wasn’t written in your masterplan
Without a warning, not a single trace
He left his home for just a pretty face
Feel your temperature rise
When you think you believed all his lies
But it all becomes clear when he starts to come near
You can see in his face, that he’s made a mistake

Let him burn baby burn, he’s out of control
Broke your heart, but he lost his soul
Burn baby burn, until nothing remains
When the hurting stops, you start all over again

How long does it take?
You can’t last much longer
How long may be a blessing
‘Cause in the end you’re gonna turn out stronger

You’re feeling so low it’s beginning to show in your eyes
When the push turned to shove he forgot about love
It was all for the best gotta find someone else

Let him burn baby burn, he’s out of control
Broke your heart, but he lost his soul
Burn baby burn, until nothing remains
When the hurting stops, you start all over again

Burn baby, burn
No sympathy, he made his choice, said it was to be
Burn baby, burn, let him feel the heat
He’s gonna drown in his own misery
Burn baby burn

"By The Grace Of God"

"By The Grace Of God"



I know fences stand for fools who wander about the other side
Holding back the tears with heartache standing next in line
Loneliness is cold because you think that it will never end
Wind cuts to your bone because you’d rather break than bend

But by the grace of god I found you, and it all comes clear
I thank god that you’re here in my life

I know that time can’t tear away all the memory of happiness
Somehow swept away, all unrequited left unblessed

But by the grace of god I found you, somehow here with me
Now I know I see the light
But by the grace of god I found you, and it all comes clear
I thank god that you’re here in my life

I was on the road for so long
No matter how far down I go

But by the grace of god I found you, somehow here with me
Now I know I see the light
But by the grace of god I found you, and it all comes clear
I thank god that you’re here in my life

But by the grace of god I found you
Now I know I see the light
I want to thank you baby

"Catch Your Shadow"

"Catch Your Shadow"



If there's a way to get close to you, I haven't found it
I can move up or back away
The distance stays the same
You caught my imagination, you caught me unaware
No matter how hard I try
I can't even catch your shadow

If there's a way to get next to you, you won't reveal it
Except a glimpse of something beautiful
That keeps me in the game
You caught my complete attention
And now you won't let me go
No matter how hard I try
I can't even catch your shadow

In shadowland, our silhouettes dance across the wall
I'm powerless
While you direct where our shadows fall
You caught me undefended, captured me with a smile
But no matter how hard I try
I can't even catch your shadow

"Chain Of Fools"

"Chain Of Fools"



Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain of fools

For five long years
Thought I was your man
Now I found out
I’m just a link in your chain

You got me where you want me
I ain’t nothing but your fool
You treated me bad
You treated me cruel

Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain of fools

Every chain has got a weak link
Well I might be weak
But I’m going to take all I can take
Listen now

Your mamma said leave me alone
Your poppa said go on home
Your doctor said take it easy
Oh but your loving is much too strong
I’m added to your

Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain of fools

I woke up this morning
The chain is gonna break
But up until then
I’m gonna take all I can take

Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain of fools

Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain of fools

Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain of fools

"Change Of Heart"

"Change Of Heart"



Oh girl, look at the time it takes
To see the whole thing fall
And girl, look at the love we waste
Have nothing left at all
In time if I'm alone I'll learn to live a life
That don’t begin with you

But if you change your mind
Change your point of view
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you
And if you change inside
What you know is true
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you

Oh girl you said you’ve seen it all
As plain as it was day
And now all I have’s a memory
Of life a better way

I’ve reached a crossroad girl can I go on
Or will I lose my way

But if you change your mind
Change your point of view
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you
And if you change inside
What you know is true
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you

You’re finding your way at last
I’m falling apart

I’ve reached a crossroad girl can I go on
Or will I lose my way

But if you change your mind
Change your point of view
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you
And if you change inside
What you know is true
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you

And if you change your mind
Change your point of view
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you
And if you change inside
What you know is true
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you

If you change your mind
Change your point of view
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you
And if you change inside
What you know is true
Will you have a change of heart
And let me stay with you

"Cold, Cold Heart"

"Cold, Cold Heart"



I tried so hard my dear to show
That you’re my every dream
But you’re afraid each thing I do
Is just some evil scream
A memory’s proud your lonesome past
Keeps us so far apart
Why can’t I free your doubtful mind
And milk your cold, cold heart

I never loved in all my time
Made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart it’s paying now
For things I didn’t do
In anger unkind words were said
To make the tear drops start
Why can’t I free your doubtful mind
And milk your cold, cold heart

You’ll never know how much it hurts
To see you sit and cry
You know you need and want my love
Yet you’re afraid to try
Why do you run and hide from life
To try it just ain’t smart
Why can’t I free your doubtful mind
And milk your cold, cold heart

If you only knew baby how I felt about you
You have broken my heart over and over again
I don’t know how I can live without you
My memory has a way of catching up with time
Looking back over the years
I wonder how I ever feel in love with you
Look at what you’ve done to me

Now there was a time when I believed
That you belonged to me
(it’s all yours jim)
Now I know this heart is shackled
To a memory
The more I learn to care for you
The more we drift apart
Why can’t I free your doubtful mind
And milk your cold, cold heart

"Come Undone"

"Come Undone"


Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin
I've been waiting for you
Signed, with a home tattoo
Happy birthday to you was created for you

(Can't ever keep from falling apart
At the seams
Can't I believe you're taking my heart
To pieces)

Oh, it'll take a little time
Might take a little crime
To come undone now

We'll try to stay blind
To the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me in to cry

Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone
[Repeat]

Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers

(Can't ever keep from falling apart
At the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart
To pieces)

Lost, in a snow filled sky, we'll make it alright
To come undone now

Calling out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat
Summer’s here and the time is right
For dancing in the street

Way down in New Orleans
Up in new york city

They’ll be records playing and people swaying
Dancing in the street

All way down in L.A, everyday
Dancing in the street
It’s gonna take all night to make it right
Dancing in the street

"Daylight"

"Daylight"



Lock the door
Shut the window tight
I close the curtains
Just got to block out the light
I feel the sun
Shining in my eyes
I'm just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight

Hide my face
I don't want to be seen
Is there somebody out there
Am I awake or asleep
I feel the sun shining in my eyes
I'm just tying to cover up a little bit of daylight

I suppose I should get out of bed
Not sleep all day
I should get up
Get out of the house
But not till the end of day

Little bit of daylight
Little bit of daylight
Little bit of daylight
Little bit of daylight

Well I'm just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight
Yes I am
Well I'm just trying to cover up a little bit of daylight
Yes I am.

I've got to cover up
Hide a little daylight
Stay out all night and all
