"She'd Be California"

"She'd Be California"


She got the long blonde hair
Got the red sports car
And you know she's got the
Top laid back
She got the movie star smile
Got the sun kissed tan
Santa Barbara in summer
Yeah, she feels like that

Hey, she's like a canyon drive
In a midnight sky
Those eyes are deep enough
To get lost
Her legs are palm tree tall
The way she walks
Like the heat on a runway
When the cameras go off

She's small town from the country
She ain't big time but she could be

[Chorus]
Hey, Hollywood never looked this
Good
Bright as the big screen burns
Hey, I bet drivin' down Sunset
They're lookin' for a face like hers
Yeah, I've been all around
This world
And she'd be California
If California was a girl

She's like a red, red wine
Like a righteous wave
She's a day at the beach in Corona
Del Mar
She's never been out there
Felt the bright spot light
But she could have her own star
On that dreamer's boulevard

I've driven down that coastline
And I've stood there under that
Big sign

[Chorus]
Hey, Hollywood never looked this
Good
Bright as the big screen burns
Hey, I bet drivin' down Sunset
They're lookin' for a face like hers
Yeah, I've been all around
This world
And she'd be California
If California was a girl

I'd chase that wild sunset
I'd be gone on my way,
Way out west
Yeah, I've been all around
This town

Hey, Hollywood never looked this good
Bright as the big screen
Hey, I bet drivin' down Sunset
Lookin' for a face like hers
Yeah, she'd be California
If California was a girl
Now she'd be California
If California was a girl
Hey California

She got the long blonde hair
Got the red sports car
And you know she's got the
Top laid back
She got the movie star smile
Got the sun kissed tan
Santa Barbara in summer
Yeah, she feels like that

Yeah, she'd be California
Hey, Hollywood

"She's Leaving"

"She's Leaving"


She's got a suitcase packed in the trunk, trunk, trunk
She's got a see you later song that went bump, bump, bump
She's got a hurting heavy heart that went thump, thump, thump
She's leaving
She's got a bucket of tears goin' drop, drip, drop
And that ring on her finger is comin' off, off, off
She's got a boyfriend yelling to stop, stop, stop
She's leaving

[Chorus:]
Should have done this, should have done that
Should have seen it comin', guess you don't see nothing when you're runnin' 'round
She's history, wrapped in a memory,
Tied up tight with a broken heart strings of the things that will never be
She's leaving

She left her jeans in the washing machine, chine, chine
Now she's a red light turning to green, green, green
She's a goner if you know what I mean, mean, mean
She's leaving

[Chorus:]
Should have done this, should have done that
Should have seen it comin', guess you don't see nothing when you're runnin' 'round
She's history, wrapped in a memory,
Tied up tight with a broken heart strings of the things that will never be
She's leaving
Oh no, she's leaving

Look at her go down right over your road,
Saying to herself should have done this a long time ago

[Chorus:]
Should have done this, should have done that
Should have seen it comin', guess you don't see nothing when you're runnin' 'round
She's history, wrapped in a memory,
Tied up tight with a broken heart strings of the things that will never be
She's, she's, she's leaving
She's leaving
She's leaving
Oh, she's leaving
She's leaving
(She's leaving, man)
Look at her go down right over your road

"Shine On"

"Shine On"


I was lost in darkness and sinking sand
Well I was barely nothing, a broken man
But you picked up the pieces of my heart in your hand
Then you came and showed to me love's second chance

[Chorus]
Shine on, shine on, shine on me
Whenever something's missing
You're exactly what I need
Your love has shown me the light and now I finally see
So shine on, shine on, shine on me, yeah

Lord knows that I'm not perfect but I sure do try
And I see the man that I can be in your eyes
Well there are times I still get lost in yesterday
But you put the past behind me and you light my way

[Repeat Chorus]

Shine on (let your love shine)
Shine on (on me)
Shine all your love on me, yeah
(Your love on me)
Shine all your love on me, yeah

[Repeat Chorus]

Shine on, shine on, shine on me
Won't you keep on shining, yeah
Won't you keep on shining your love
Down on me, baby
Won`t you keep on shining, yeah
Won`t you keep on shining your love
Yeah, you're exactly what I need, baby
Yeah, you are

"Skin"

"Skin"


Sarabeth is scared to death
To hear what the doctor will say
She hasn't been well
Since the day that she fell
And the bruise, it just won't go away
So she sits and she waits with her mother and dad
Flips through an old magazine
Till the nurse with a smile
Stands at the door
And says will you please come with me

Sarabeth is scared to death
Cause the doctor just told her the news
Between the red cells and white
Something's not right
But we're gonna take care of you

Six chances in ten it won't come back again
With the therapy were gonna try
It's just been approved
It's the strongest there is
I think we caught it in time

Sarabeth closes her eyes
And she dreams she's dancing
Around and around without any cares
And her very first love is holding her close
And the soft wind is blowing her hair

Sarabeth is scared to death
As she sits holding her mom
Cause it would be a mistake
For someone to take
A girl with no hair to the prom

For, just this morning right there on her pillow
Was the cruelest of any surprise
And she cried when she gathered it all in her hands
The proof that she couldn't deny

Sarabeth closes her eyes
And she dreams she's dancing
Around and around without any cares
And her very first love was holding her close
And the soft wind is blowing her hair

Its quarter to seven
That boys at the door
And her daddy ushers him in
And when he takes off his cap
They all start to cry
Cause this mornin where his hair had been
Softly she touches just skin

And they go dancin
Around and around without any cares
And her very first true love is holding her close
And for a moment she isn't scared

"Some Say"

"Some Say"


There's that star, the one they said we'd never reach
And just close your eyes
There's the missing moon, there's the Milky Way
Heaven's straight ahead, we'll be there today
Rainbows right and left, sunshine everywhere
If it couldn't be baby, how did we get there

[Chorus]
Some say we'll never get it off the ground
Some say we'll never make it out of town
That someday we'll end up a world apart
And some say we're a couple of crazy kids
And some say that's exactly what they did
And I say you got to go with your heart
And baby, look where we are

There's that home, the one they said we'd never share
And just close your eyes
There's the picket fence, there's our mailbox,
Puppy on the porch and roses up the walk
Shinny minivan, kids in every seat
Someday we'll look back and say it wasn't just a dream

[Repeat Chorus]

[Instrumental]

[Repeat Chorus]

 

[fox69]

"Stand"

"Stand"


You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright

[Chorus:]
'Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, 'til you break
'Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand,
Then you stand

Life's like a novel
With the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon
With only one way down
Take what you're given before it's gone
And start holding on, keep holding on

[Chorus:]
'Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break
'Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand,
Yeah, then you stand

Every time you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place
Oh

[Chorus]

Yeah, then you stand,
Yeah, yeah, baby
Woo hoo, woo hoo, woo hoo

Then you stand, yeah, yeah

"Still Feels Good"

"Still Feels Good"


Ooo, Ooo, Ooo-come on,
Still feels good-oh,oh,oh

That old t-shirt you wear to bed
Hangin' off your shoulder by a thread
The one you ripped off me when
We first met
Still feels good

That old familiar song blarin'
From my car
We know every note, every word
By heart
Puts a smile on your face 'cause
You know it's ours
And it still feels good

[CHORUS]
Your fingers hooked around
My belt loops
Leanin' up against my ride
Remember that first time I touched you
It doesn't matter-I've held you a
Million times
Oh, and it still feels good

We made some crazy plans, had some
Crazy dreams
And now that we've reached
A few you would think
That it would get old to you and me
But it still feels good, still feels good

[Repeat Chorus]

Oh, your fingers hooked around
My belt loops
Leanin' up against my ride
Remember the first time I touched you
It doesn't matter, I've held you-
I've touched you
I've felt you-I've loved you-
And it still feels good

Yeah and it still feels good, baby
Yeah, it still feeld good-yeah, yeah, yeah
Still feels good
Still feels good, baby

"Summer Nights"

"Summer Nights"


Ha ha ha ha ha
It’s summer nights, babe!
Woo! Yeah, yeah, yeah

Come on ladies, it’s time to pop that top
And fellas, I know you’re ready to rock
We went crazy cooped all winter long
And school is out, so let’s get it on
Flip flop tans and some white sand, I know the perfect spot

Well, the sunset better set soon
So we can get in the mood
Things start getting all heated up
When it starts getting cool, yeah

[Chorus:]
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody’s feeling sexy
Holler if you’re ready for some summer nights
A-come on, oh yeah, yeah

Now fellas, you better watch your step
Don’t let them teeny French bikinis make you lose your breath
Back to the ladies, y’all keep doing y’all’s thang
‘Cause everything about you makes me wanna scream

The sun is getting low, there it goes
Here we go, here comes the moon, yeah
Things start getting all heated up
When it starts getting cool, yeah

[Chorus:]
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody’s feeling sexy
Holler if you’re ready for some summer nights

It’s a party down in Padre
Big bonfire on the beach
It’s Coronas in Daytona y’all
Where it’s wild and it’s free

[Chorus:]
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody’s feeling sexy
Holler if you’re ready for some summer nights
A-come on

[Chorus:]
Summer nights, everybody, are you with me?
Let that Igloo cooler mark your piece of paradise
Summer nights, everybody’s feeling sexy
Holler if you’re ready for some summer nights

Yeah, oh, are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
For some summer nights
Yeah baby

Summer nights!
It’s summer nights
Come on!

"Summer Young"

"Summer Young"


You looked a little cold to me so I gave you that
Army green jacket that was in my trunk
It didn't fit, you didn't care, a little chill was in
The air and you were just warming up
You smiled and we sang

I wanna thank the band, whoever they
Were for playing our song
And all the stars up there for getting in line
And shining down on
That boardwalk you and I strolled down
Light's dancing on the water from the merry-go-round
We made a lot of memories, ain't no doubt
But there's only one summer young

I stood behind you while you swayed and looked down
At your pretty face, thought "Man I'm fallin' hard for her"
Yeah, we get those memories now and then, the kind you pray
Will never end and that's exactly where we were
I smiled while you danced

I wanna thank the band, whoever they
Were for playing our song
And all the stars up there for getting in line
And shining down on
That boardwalk you and I strolled down
Light's dancing on the water from the merry-go-round
We made a lot of memories, ain't no doubt
But there's only one summer young

Every time we hear it now
It's gonna take us back

I wanna thank the band, whoever they
Were for playing our song
And all the stars up there for getting in line
And shining down on
That boardwalk you and I strolled down
Light's dancing on the water from the merry-go-round
We made a lot of memories, ain't no doubt
But there's only one summer young

Oh, summer young
Summer young
Ooh, summer young

"Sunday Afternoon"

"Sunday Afternoon"


I swear it feel just like
The clocks slow down for a while
And the air tastes sweeter
And breathing gets deeper
As the clouds dance around the sunshine

I hear the church bells ring
Blowing in with the breeze, yeah
As I stare in your eyes
Thanking God for this life that he's given me
You're a gift to me

If I had the chance to make one wish
Every single moment would be like this
Laying here baby, just me and you
Yeah, and every day would be Sunday afternoon

Just the touch of your hand
It fixes everything
It gets my heartbeat moving
Like it's singing hallelujah
You're the only place I wanna be
Right where I wanna be

If I had the chance to make one wish
Every single moment would be like this
Laying here baby, just me and you
Yeah, and every day would be Sunday afternoon

If I had the chance to make one wish
Every single moment would be like this
Laying here baby, just me and you
That's exactly what I'd do, yeah that's what I'd do

If I had the chance to make one wish
Every single moment would be like this
Laying here baby, just me and you
Yeah, and every day would be Sunday
Every day would be Sunday afternoon
Oh, just the touch of your hand
Sunday afternoon
Everything... Sunday, Sunday afternoon
