Trust Me Or Let Me Be
so you say you dont believe me
well i want to move our
it feels odd being without
trust in this house
i wanna rise to the occasion
take life by its hair
if you let me go ill graduate
from college i swear
i guess its my looks of which you dislike
so what i look like father
now punish me for riding a bike
i just went to visit my dad
whom i havent seen in weeks
your yellin like i left the country
but its four blocks down the street
i knew you didnt like me
i could tell from the start
so without like there is no love
leaving no room for a heart
you built a heart less monster
that should be put away for good
and when i say put away
i just dont mean take him out the hood

Another statistic
i Don't wanna be another statistic

I Dont Want To Grow Up
When Im lying in my bed at nite
I dont wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
I dont wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog thats
Always changing things
Makes wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I dont wanna grow up
I dont ever want to be that way
I dont wanna grow up
Seems that folks turn into things
That they never want
The only thing to live for is today...
Im gonna put a hole in my t.v. set
I dont wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I dont wanna grow up
I dont wanna have to shout it out
I dont want my hair to fall out
I dont wanna be filled with doubt
I dont wanna be a good boy scout
I dont wanna have to learn to count
I dont wanna have the biggest amount
I dont wanna grow up
Well when I see my parents fight
I dont wanna grow up
They all go out and drinkin all night
I dont wanna grow up
Id rather stay here in my room
Nothin out there but sad and gloom
I dont wanna live in a big old tomb on grand street
When I see the 5 oclock news
I dont wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I dont wanna grow up

Don't You Trust Me?
I aint got time for this man im out
We should stop for a while
You will find me standing by
(Dont you trust me)
Over here at the side of your life
(Not that I dont trust you)
You spend all of your hours just rushing around
Do you have a little time to have a little time for me
As soon as I leave the house u wanna page me
See u got me trapped im going crazy this is slavery
You act like its outrageous give me space it will get betta
And maybe we wont argue and be through with all these sorry letters
As soon as I come home its like I get third degree
Where u been and who u with I get no room to breathe
It makes me wanna leave
Im sick of these tricks up your sleeve
Your suspicious I deceive
Give me grief without belief
But to me if u really trust me its then it's pitiful question me about ma were about
>Thats so trival let me live ma life and u can live yours
Just be there to help me and support is what ya hear for.
Not to give me stress
And add ta presser
home is where i go the rest i got to pass the test
im sorry if I left you all alone
But I couldnt make it home so we argue on the phone.
(Dont you trust me)
You should stop for a while
You will find me standing by
(Dont you trust me)
Over here at the side of your life
(Not that I dont trust you)
You spend all your hours just rushing around
Do have a little time to have a little time for me
(Not that I dont trust you)
Calling up ma house then hanging up u think that makes sense
Tell me what it takes to say for us to be friends
Its time for us to take our separate paths
We had a lotta laughs but the good keeps coming pass
Lets make it a even break dont make it scandalous trying be mature
im pretty sure we can handle this
Your saying im to busy I ignore you
I guess u didnt hear me when I said that I cared for u
But now I see that the arguments are nightly
I wanna hold u tightly but instead u wanna fight me
So y would i stress and aggravate me
Instead I rather break, hope that you dont hate me
You tell me that you love me but u lying
Fighting back the urge to start crying
I wipe away your tears come and hug me
I love you like u love me
(Girl Dont u trust me)
You should stop for a while
You will find me standing by
(Dont you trust me)
Over here at your side of your life
(Not that I dont trust you)
You spend all of your hours just rushing around
Do have a little time to have a little time for me
(Not that I dont trust you)
I hang up the phone I cant bare hear u yelling at me
Maybe we should end it neither one of us r happy
You know that im emotional u knew me coming ova crying
Just to get me feeling guilty
You n me were meant to be and yet u always wanna sweat
How much closer can we get (dont treat)
Just let me pack ma things n ill be out
This time im breaking out you let your mouth over crowd me
I cant take the beefing n the griffin
I get no room to sleep I hope you sees cuz im leaving
Maybe next time youll be a little more sure
And I can give you more when u mature
But baby until then I gotta leave ya its not that I dont need yea but see ya
N I hope u understand y im busted not because we frustrated
You should stop for a while
You will find me standing by
(Dont you trust me)
Over here at the side of your life
(Not that I dont trust you)
You spend all your hours just rushing around
Do have a little time to have a little time for me
(Not that I dont trust you)
Dont u trust me
Not that I dont trust you
Dont u trust me
Not that I dont trust you

Losing You Feels Good
(lonnie, charlotte & herbert wilson)
I tried to hold our love together
But you let us fall apart
Now your leaving me for someone else
Taking whats left of my heart
But this time the pain dont feel that same
Im not aching like I should
cause loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good
I know youll come back running to me
When the thrill is dead and gone
And you realize the love you need
Was right here all along
When you try to restore what we had before
Theres no way you ever could
cause loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good
Dont get me wrong Ill still long to hold you every night
But my heart cant take another break
When theres no relief in sight
I guess youre wonderin why I havent cried
cause usually I would
But loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good
If there was a way to make you stay
I wouldnt if I could
cause loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good

Wish I Didnt Know Now
(toby keith)
I never ask you where your goin,
I never ask you where youve been
Ive never called and checked your story,
When you stayed out with all your friends
Ive never tried to catch you lyin,
I didnt want to know the truth
Id rather go on lovin blind girl,
Than go on lovin without you
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Ive always said what I dont know
Couldnt hurt as bad as leavin you
Turns out I knew what I was thinkin,
It aint an easy thing to do,
Well I guess I should be goin
I sure found out too much to stay,
Please dont say your sorry
I might wait another day
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hand
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then

Its My House
(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)
Its my house and I live here
(I wanna tell you)
Its my house and I live here
Theres a welcome mat at the door
And if you come on in
Youre gonna get much more
Theres my chair
I put it there
Everything you see
Is with love and care
Its my house and I live here
(I wanna tell you)
Its my house and I live here
On the table, there sits a rose
Through every window
A little light flows
Books of feeling on the shelf above
cause it was built for love
I was built for love
Its my house and I live here
(I wanna tell you)
Its my house and I live here
Theres a candle to light the stairs
Where my dreams await someone to share
Oh, theres music on the radio
And good vibrations wont let me go
I put my name on the ceilin above
cause it was buillt for love
It was built for love, ooh
You say you wanna move in with me
You say you wanna move in with me
Got to follow the rules to get me
Got to follow the rules to get me
You wanna visit my house
Say you wanna drop by
Wanna visit my house, yeah
To see me sometimes
Theres a welcome mat at the door
And if you come on in
Youre gonna get much more
I put my name in the ceilin above
cause it was built for love
It was built for love
Its my house and I live here

Father Time
(sambora, child)
Father time
I couldnt make her wanna stay
I couldnt seem to find the words to say
Now I have to live in yesterday
Father time
I thought that you were on my side
I thought that I could keep our love alive
I thought that I could keep her satisfied
The clock keeps tickin and I keep on thinkin bout you
Im knockin at the door of your heart but I cant break through
Father time
Grant me just another day
Of our love I tried to make her stay
Father time
Dont tell me its too late
All my life you know that I would wait
Father time
Now shes gone
She didnt even say goodbye
I guess she didnt have the heart to try
She didnt even have the guts to lie
Father time
Only you can turn the page
And close the curtain on this empty stage
Only you can take my pain away
My heart keeps breakin and my body keeps aching for you
Its time to hold on but theres nothin left to hold on to
Father time
Grant me just another day
Of our love I tried to make her stay
Father time
Dont tell me its too late
All my life you know that I would wait
Father time
Father, father cant you see Im depending on you
Im dying at the door to your heart and I cant break through
Father time
Grant me just another day
Of our love I tried to make her stay
Father time
Dont tell me its too late
All my life you know that I would wait
Father time
Shes your child make her mine

They Dont Break em Like They Used To
(roger brown/jason sellers)
Youre here in my arms right where you say you wanna be
While across the room I watch the one who set you free
It didnt take me long to mend the heart she tore in two
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
I bet she thought that wounded pride of yours would never heal
But you dont have one single scar as far as I can feel
And I see nothing but perfection when I look at you
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
They dont break em like they used to, darling thats for sure
Were living proof theres nothing that true love cant cure
We put the pieces back together now youre good as new
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
All the tears have disappeared without a trace
Makes me think that heartaches dont last as long these days
We put the pieces back together now youre good as new
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
They dont break em like they used to, darling thats for sure
Were living proof theres nothing that true love cant cure
We put the pieces back together now youre good as new
I guess they just dont break em like they used to
I guess they just dont break em like they used to

Dont Know Why
I waited til I saw the sun
I dont know why I didnt come
I left you by the house of fun
I dont know why I didnt come
I dont know why I didnt come
When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching teardrops in my hand
My heart is drenched in wine
But youll be on my mind
Forever
Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstasy
But Ill be a bag of bones
Driving down the road along
My heart is drenched in wine
But youll be on my mind
Forever
Something has to make you run
I dont know why I didnt come
I feel as empty as a drum
I dont know why I didnt come
I dont know why I didnt come
I dont know why I didnt come

I Dont Wanna Live Without Your Love
Thought it wouldnt matter
If we didnt stay together,
And if it was over,
Maybe it was for the better.
I was thinking Id be alright,
til I thought it all through.
Now I know that I aint really living
If I have to live without you.
I dont wanna live without your love,
I dont wanna face the night alone.
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own.
I dont wanna love nobody else,
I dont wanna find somebody new.
I dont wanna live without your love,
I just wanna live my life with you.
Guess I had to go away,
So much I had to go through.
Guess I had to lose you
To realize how much I love you.
Can we make the fire burn again,
Burn a little stronger?
cause Ive been alone, and baby,
I cant be alone now any longer.
I dont wanna live without your love,
I dont wanna face the night alone.
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own.
I dont wanna love nobody else,
I dont wanna find somebody new.
I dont wanna live without your love,
I just wanna live my life with you.
Oh, if I had to make it on my own,
My life would never be the same,
My love would never be the same.
I dont wanna live without your love.

The Real Life
Suzanne divorced her husband
She got the keys and the car and the home
But her friends were really his friens
No one stops by to see her much any more
So one night, she goes back down to
The old haunts
That once upon a time were her own
She didnt know nobody out there no
More
And the whole experience just made her
Feel so old
She says
I want to live the real life
I want to life my life close to the bone
Just because im middle-aged that
Dont mean
I want to sit around my house and watch tv
I want the real life
I want to live the real life
Jackson jackson was a good kid
He had four years of college
And a bachelors degree
Started workin, when he was 21
Got fed up and quit
When he was 43
He said, my whole life
Ive done, what I supposed to do
Now id like to maybe do something
For myself
And just as soon, I figure out what
That is
You can bet your live
Im gonna give it hell
He says
I want to live the real life
I want to life my life close to the bone
Just because im middle-aged that
Dont mean
I want to sit around my house and watch tv
I want the real life
I want to live the real life
I guess, it dont matter, how old you
Are
Or how old one lives to be
I guess, it boils down to what we did
With our lives
And how we deal with our own
Destinies
But something happens
When you reach a certain age
Particularly to to those ones, that are
Young at heart
Its a lonely proposition when you
Realize
That theres less days in front of the
Horse
Than riding in the back of this cart
I say
I want to live the real life
I want to life my life close to the bone
Just because im middle-aged that
Dont mean
I want to sit around my house and watch tv
I want the real life
I want to live the real life.

True Love
Never wanna fall in love again
Dont ever wanna feel the pain again
Dont wanna see another love turn into a lie
Dont wanna see another tear fall from my eye
I know my heart wasnt meant to be let down
Its juss not made for pain
You never really know til its much too late
Its juss enuff to drive you insane
~!*chorus*!~:
True love is not always the best thing
Not when your hearts at stake and the love you make gets thrown away
True love can start out right but then it falls apart
True love...
It always break your heart
Never knew that love could be so cruel
To make even the kindest hearts play the fool
At first it makes you feel real good
It makes you feel fine
But it can really turn on you at the best and worst time
I never knew that love could hurt so much
Thought it would always be mine
I didnt know until it was much too late
And now Im going out of my mind
~!*chorus*!~
Why did you have to be this way
Why did you have to go
Feels like my heart has been betray
Should of been the best thing that has happened to me
You should of been the best thing
But you play me like a fool
Why you have to be so cruel
Never wanna believe in you

Ill Wait
(taylor dayne, shep pettibone, tony shimkin)
Ill wait by the window
Ill wait by the door
To make sure you dont come home after dark
Now, Ill wait by the phone
Ill make sure Im at home
Ill be there when youre needin you know what
Now, I can tell you - by things you do
You dont know that Ive been watching you
Now, I dont understand your games or crazy plans
Im here for you baby, stop playing with my mind
Well, I know what
I feel inside
I trust enough in what my heart tells me
Havent I been good
The way I should
Just act like a man and stay here and stand by my side
Ill wait just a little more time
Just a little more time
To move in a new direction
Ill wait just a little more time
Till you make up your mind
You know that you needed me too
Why are you feelin so scared and unwilling
To be there - when someones there for you
Why time has to be so unkind for no reason
But love has no measure - this is true
Well, I know what
I feel inside
I trust enough
In what my heart tells me
Havent I been good
The way I should
Im willing, Im able
I need you to give me a sign
Ill wait just a little more time
Just a little more time
To move in a new direction
Ill wait just a little more time
Till you make up your mind
I know that you needed me too
Ill wait
Yes, Ill wait
Just a little more time
Baby, new directions
Ill wait just a little more time
Till you make up your mind
I know that you needed me too
Baby, havent I been good to you
The way that I said I would be
Why are you leaving me now
Well, I know what
I feel inside
I trust enough
In what my hearts been telling me
Havent I been good
The way I should
Im willing, Im able
I need you to give me a sign

Without You
You no the truth so why dont you just say so.
We belong together, it feels like were the only ones in this world that love each other as much.
When your up and im down and your all around me i start to cry.
Now we have problems!
You dont want us to be together why dont you just tell me i would understand.
Oh baby baby, why dont you just tell me?
If you dont i will be drounded in thoughts what should i do?
Knowbody knows.
Without you my heart is incomplete.
Without you my heart has an empty space.
Without you there is a black whole in my life.
Without you, without you, without you.(Guitar Solo.)
The truth is the most important thing you should always tell me.
I believe we are meant to be.
Truth is what keeps our love strong.
Everything about us feels like it has been going wrong.
I dont want to loose the trust between you and me because
Without you my heart is incomplete.
Without you my heart has an empty space.
Without you there is a black whole in my life.

I Dont Wanna Say Goodnight
(al anderson /robert ellis orrall)
Just one innocent smile that I could have missed
Thats all it took to start all this
One word so softly spoken when I needed it most
Why you, why right now, who knows?
And I dont know why this is happenin
Why it feels so right
But I do know I dont wanna say goodnight
Last kiss until tomorrow out on the front porch swing
Till then nothin means anything
And I dont know why this is happenin
Why it feels so right
But I do know I dont wanna say goodnight
I cant let go when Im holdin you tight
All I dream of is that day when we dont have to say goodnight
And I dont know why this is happenin
Why it feels so right
But I do know I dont wanna say goodnight
And I dont know why this is happenin
Why it feels so right
But I do know I dont wanna say goodnight
Just one innocent smile that I could have missed
Thats all it took to start all this
Oh no, I dont wanna say goodnight
Oh no, I dont wanna say goodnight
Oh, I dont wanna say goodnight
Oh no, just wanna hold you tight

Johnny Dont Do It
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny was an angel
An angel dressed in black
He used to hang around the guys
Down at the local track
He tried so hard to join them
But they always turned him back
Johnny dont do it
He was an angel
Johnny dont do it
Such an angel
He was only 17
Just got out of school
He stole a bike from joes garage
To prove that he was cool
He didnt know that the brakes were worn
And fate can be so cruel
Johnny dont do it
He was an angel
Johnny dont do it
Such an angel
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Well johnny went a riding
With his girlfriend on the back seat
Looking for some action
And they found it down a back street
Suddenly a truck pulled out
He tried to step on the brake
Johnny dont do it (here is a news flash)
Johnny dont do it (today, johnny kowalski, also known as johnny
Angel)
Johnny dont do it (and his young fiance francine, were tragically
Killed)
Johnny dont do it (in a cycle accident)
Dont do it, dont do it (any witnesses please contact)
Dont do it, dont do it (the police at precinct 29)
Now johnnys with the angels
The angels in the sky
I wonder if he thinks of us
As he goes riding by
If only had listened
Oh the number of times we tried
To tell him
Johnny dont do it
He was an angel
Johnny dont do it
Such an angel
Johnny dont do it
He was an angel
Johnny dont do it
Such an angel
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it
Johnny dont do it

You can try me at home, if it feels all right

Dont Break The Promises
You know I cannot always be there with you
When something crazy takes me far away
We must stick together through this madness
Ive got so many things I want to say
Too many forces try to come between us
So little time to share and talk to you
If I show my hand to you in panic
Please remember what Im going through
Ive loved you forever
But it seems like a day
And I want to be there with you
I didnt want it this way
Dont think I dont trust in you
I just needed to say
Dont break the promises
That we made today, oh no
Dont break the promises
Do you remember counting every moment
Before the world we knew was torn apart
Now when I close my eyes I can be with you
But are we really dancing in the dark
A bad connection leads us to confusion
Were all too easily misunderstood
Oh weve been together through these nightmares
And now weve got a chance to make it good
Ive loved you forever
But it seems like a day
And I want to be there with you
I didnt want it this way
Dont think I dont trust in you
I just needed to say
Dont break the promises
That we made today, oh no
Dont break the promises
That we made today
Dont you break the promises
(dont break the promises, promises)
If you do youll be breaking my heart
(dont break the promises that you made)
Oh dont forget the things we said
(promises, promises)
At the start oh no
Ive loved you forever
But it seems like a day
And I want to be there with you
I didnt want it this way
Dont think I dont trust in you

Stranger On The Shore Of Love
The curtain goes up
The first act begins
The scene is two people in love
Lovely is she, lucky feels he
She smiles in his eyes
He smiles in her eyes
They both vow love never to part
One sight for all, lovers to see
A perfect love story begins
til insecurity sets in
What happens then is, one aching heart
Oh, I dont wanna be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a broken heart
I can tell you that I dont wanna be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a broken heart
A table for two
Love vows of I do
A honeymoon out of a dream
Who could ask for, anything more
A home on a hill
With love daffodils
And cold winter nights by the fire
What more could be, for she and he
Theres more than enough love and yet
She or he starts feeling regret
What do you get, one broken heart
Oh, I dont wanna be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a broken heart
I can tell you from experience I dont wanna be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a broken heart
I dont wanna be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a-a-a-oh, oh, oh
Oh, I dont wanna be, please dont let me be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a broken heart, na, na, na, na, na
I dont wanna be no, dont let me be no
No, no, no with tears
I dont wanna have an upset stomach from a broken heart, baby
I dont wanna be
No stranger on the shore of love with tears
And a broken heart

Hold Out
Baby I guess you know my story
Baby I guess you know my side
It seems Ive traded love for glory
But Im still not satisfied
Given all the years
All the cries and cheers
Dont amount to much more than pride
Take my love for you
Take tomorrow too
Theres not much left inside
How we laughed when we first knew love
Singing dum-de-lum-de-lie
I taught you how to see life through love
Then I taught you how to cry
And though I must have known
How easily love is thrown
I took some chances, I dont know why
Theres not much you can do
You wish that Id been true
Darlin so do i
Now you better hold out
Go on and hold out
Go ahead and hold out
For what you know love can be
Move on and hold out
Dont let your love be sold out
If theres anyone who knows about it
Baby thats me
Ahh youre right
You cant forget the way I lied
Time has seen you grow,
To lead your life alone
Though you tried and tried
Cried and cried
Baby I guess you know my story
Maybe theres not much left to say
You know the more we take the more we
Turn each others hearts away
Now Ill be leaving in the morning
Leaving half of me behind
To find the pieces lifes been torn in
And take whatever love I find
But you better hold out
Go on and hold out
Just walk away and hold out
For what you know love can be
Move on and hold out
Dont let your love be sold out
Its starting to be cold out
For people who live like me
Move on and hold out
And somewhere later no doubt
Youll find another hold out
Someone just like you baby, wait and see..
