LITTLE MISS HEARTBREAK

LITTLE MISS HEARTBREAK


Well they told me not to come around you anymore
Said I should find something to do
And it filled me with an anger that I can't ignore
But I'm sure it didn't come from you

Everyone says I'm touched inside
That you don't even know I'm alive

Little Miss Heartbreak, can you hear me?
I've got your picture pasted on the wall
Little Miss Heartbreak, need you near me
Without you, I'm nothing at all

Is there something I can change in me to suit your taste?
Something clever I can say?
Left my number at your room again, just in case
You want a quiet place to stay

I'm not just another face in the crowd
I'm here to tell you clear and loud

Little Miss Heartbreak, can you hear me?
I've got your picture pasted on the wall
Little Miss Heartbreak, need you near me
Without you, I'm nothing at all

I can't stop these chills you give me
Every time you come through the door
I won't just stand by and watch you
Like a schoolboy anymore...yeah...

Ooh, I wait by the mailbox, stare at the phone
How can you leave me here alone?

Little Miss Heartbreak, can you hear me?
I've got your picture pasted on my wall
Miss Heartbreak, need you near me
Without you, I'm nothing...yeah...

Little Miss Heartbreak, I know you see me
How can you go on treating me this way?
Little Miss Heartbreak, believe me
I'm gonna make you mine someday

Yeah, Little Miss Heartbreak
I'm gonna make you mine someday

Yeah, Little Miss Heartbreak...

LONELY HEART

LONELY HEART


Heartbeat pounding so hard
It keeps me wide awake at night
I wait alone in the dark for you
To make the moment right

If I could only show you all that might be lost
Then you would never wonder what the secret was
And this is what I?d tell you

The lonely heart you see tonight
Will not give up without a fight
And I?m never gonna let it fade away
Never gonna let it fade away

Oh, you can look in my eyes
And see that you?re the only one
I would break down and cry
If you became the lonely one

I?d rather play the fool and try to hold a star
Than never know if you were gonna break my heart
And I can see it shining

The lonely heart you see tonight
Will not give up without a fight
And I?m never gonna let it fade away
Never gonna let it fade away

No matter what I say to make you understand
It?s all up to you to take the future in your hands
So please don?t keep me waiting

The lonely heart you see tonight
Will not give up without a fight
And I?m never gonna let it fade away
Never gonna let it fade away

And I?m never gonna let it fade away

LOVE GOES ON

LOVE GOES ON


Elusive happiness can be like promises
That rest so gently on our pillow
We stood out on the ledge and leaned over the edge
And nearly fell right through that window

There were those who had us done by now
Baby, we've only just begun

The world may crash and burn, suddenly just cease to turn
But love goes on
It may look out of reach, and time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on, our love goes on

No one may recognize what lives behind our eyes
Sometimes the good times are the hardest
And when my strength is gone, it's you that I lean on
A light at the end of all my darkness

And in the end if I know nothing else
The answer is only in your arms

The world may crash and burn or suddenly just cease to turn
But love goes on
It may look out of reach and time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on

And in the end if I know nothing else
The answer is right here in your arms
It's always in your arms

The world may crash and burn or suddenly just cease to turn
But love goes on
It may look out of reach and time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on

Oh, love goes on

It may look out of reach and time may rob us like a thief

LOVE UNEMOTIONAL

LOVE UNEMOTIONAL


Victim of temptation
Can't make it go away
You see it and you want it, baby
Never hear a word I say
You know I don't want nothing I don't deserve
Oh, no! I won't take less than I know I'm worth

All this talking makes me feel like a monkey in a cage
Ain't no point in trying to change a man of my age

Love unemotional, purely physical
What I'm staying for's a mystery to me
Love unemotional. the heart's invisible
Love unemotional, is what you want from me

People say I'm crazy
Wonder why I play your game
Sure beats felling lonely, baby
But the story ends the same
I want to feel like I'm living in a fairy tale
Don't want to be just another broken heart for sale

Do I have to hit my knees and beg for something more
Maybe this is not the love I've waited for

Love unemotional, simply physical
What I'm staying for is a mystery to me
Love unemotional, the girl's insatiable
Love unemotional is what you want from me

You feel no shame in being so unkind
All touch and zero feeling
I don't see a way of changing your mind

Girl, this kind of life is bound to leave you all alone
The light inside your heart is on, but no one's home

Love unemotional, purely physical
What I'm looking for is a mystery to me
Love unemotional, the soul's invisible
Love unemotional's what you want from me

Love unemotional, the soul's invisible
What I'm doing here's a mystery to me
Love unemotional, the girl's insatiable
Love unemotional's what you want from me

LOVED

LOVED


Once again I bare myself before you
Beggin' for a chance we never had
You don?t want all I have to offer
And its too late for me to take it back

Look at where you always leave us standing
Between all the way and not quite close enough
There could be a place you dont believe in
If you would only let yourself be loved

Im the one who seems to keep you smiling
And I'd be more if you'd take the dare
The two of us, we're really children hiding
Underneath the armor that we wear

And these walls...aren't so tall
That we're climbing

chorus

So many hearts who'll never even
Have the chance to hold
What you seem to be so willing to let go
What good is being strong and hiding in some harbor
If you and I end up all alone

Look at where you always leave us standing
Between all the way and not quite close enough
I could be what you just won?t believe in
If you would only let yourself be loved
Baby, wont you let yourself be loved...

MIRACLE

MIRACLE


It's hard to see reason
When there's so little hope alive
This is the season
To put faith in innocent eyes

We're all thinking too much
We're so out of touch
We need to start over again
So just let it wander
'Cause you're never too old to pretend

Tell you, just a little miracle
Is all you need to believe
Just a little miracle
Is all you need to believe

It's not too late to wake up
Don't make no difference who you are
Just take off your make-up
And discover the child in your heart

Tell you, just a little miracle
Is all you need to believe
Just a little miracle
Is all you need to believe

We're all thinking too much
We're so out of touch
We need to start over again
So just let it wander
'Cause you're never too old to pretend

Tell you, just a little miracle
Is all you need to believe
Just a little miracle

MORE THAN A MYSTERY

MORE THAN A MYSTERY


Mesmerized since the day I saw you
Maybe somewhere I've misplaced my pride
In trying to prove I'm on your side
We're two of the many walking wounded

And all I want is to try to be the cure
So, well, never feel loneliness anymore

I wanna be declared your one and only
Hear you say that I'm your destiny
And I want you to be
More than a mystery to me

Am I making you feel uneasy?
Do you recognize the movie that were in?
Every game you swore you'd never play, you win
Do you want to know the truth about you?

Do you even hear the voices in your head?
Can't you see I'm hanging there by a thread?

I wanna feel your gentle arms around me
Wanna know the sweet taste of your kiss
Wanna hear you whisper
Baby, nothing's better than this

I wanna be declared your one and only
Hear you say that I'm your destiny
And I want you to be
More than a mystery to me

The more I reach out to you
The harder you are to find
How could I be so drawn
To something so unkind

Do I make you feel uneasy?
Am I saying any words
You want to hear
Love isn't really love without fear

I wanna be declared your one and only
Hear you say that I'm your destiny
And I want you to be

MY CONFESSION

MY CONFESSION


Maybe you've noticed how I linger by the door
Looking for ways to hang around
I never felt my moment ever show itself before
But I've got to speak or lose you now

This is my confession
I bare my soul to you
This is my confession
The one thing I can do

How will I ever make you mine
If you don't know that I'm alive?
I confess to you
My love for you

He'll never say the words I've rehearsed a million times
Or stop your tears before they fall, yeah
He'll never even try to put his thoughts of you in rhymes
His heart is barely there at all, oh

This is my confession
I bare my soul to you
This is my confession
The one thing I can do

How will I ever make you mine
If you don't know that I'm alive?
I confess to you
My love for you, oh

I have always believed somehow
I'd be standing right here before you now
Hoping the last breath I take
I take in your arms

This is my confession
I bare my soul to you
This is my confession
The one thing I can do

How will I ever make you mine
If you don't know that I'm alive?
I confess to you
My love for you, oh

This is my confession
I bare my soul to you
This is my confession
The one thing I can do

How will I ever make you mine
If you don't know that I'm alive?
I confess to you
My love for you, oh

Ooh, this is my confession
I bare my soul to you
This is my confession

NOTHIN' LEFT TO SAY

NOTHIN' LEFT TO SAY


Locked up tight but holdin' the key
Clock keeps tickin' like it's laughin' at me
I wonder what spell I'm under
Days go by in a pulseless haze
Who's that person that's wearin' my face
Denyin' what he's hidin'

I can't go on like this
I won't let myself miss the rest of my life

When something's come and gone, what good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak but the words are out of reach
I guess that really means there's nothin' left to say, left to say

I guess we could carry on livin' asleep
Who is the fool who could choose to just
Keep pretendin' that this ain't endin'?
I wish you all that I wish for myself
To have that ache of emptiness behind us
And not still inside us

It's time to take that dare
There's still a world out there waitin' for me

When something's come and gone, what good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak but the words are out of reach
I guess that really means there's nothin' left to say

We did the best we could
Just like we thought we should
But sometimes you've got to just let go

When something's come and gone, what good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak but the words are out of reach
I guess that really means there's nothin' left to say

There's nothin' left to say, nothin' left to say
There's nothin' left to say

NOTHIN' YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT

NOTHIN' YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT


Have you heard the news?
I'm doing what I said I would
So now you say
Boy, I always knew you could
My Wildest dreams
Murdered by reality
I gave all I could give you
But now I'm taking back what belongs to me
I read you like a drugstore book
How'd I ever think you were cool
You got no bait left on you hook
You're no friend, and buddy, I'm no fool

Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Ain't nothin' you can say
Ain't nothin' you can do about it
No one's gonna stand in my way

I've done my time
I've given up my pound of flesh
So why can't the man seem to understand
That I've already passed the test
You did your best to keep me down
Tried to make my spirit give in
But I'm here to make a big, big sound
It's your time to lose and it's my time to win

Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Ain't nothin' you can say
Ain't nothin' you can do about it
No one's gonna stand in my way
Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Ain't nothin' you can say

I know you can never go back
Once you turn and walk out that door
Got no time for worries like that
I'm not a kid anymore

You did your best to keep me down
Tried to make my spirit give in
But I'm here to make a big, big sound
It's your time to lose and it's my time to win

Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Ain't nothin' you can say
Ain't nothin' you can do about it
No one's gonna stand in my way

Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Ain't nothin' you can say
Ain't nothin' you can do about it

Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Ain't nothin' you can say
Ain't nothin' you can do about it
Nothing
