We Tell Ourselves
I oughta know the look in anothers eyes
When theres something on their mind
I think I saw that look in a lovers eyes
They were looking into mine
Like we both had found the one we want
But found the one we wanted just quit trying
So we tell ourselves that what we found is what we meant to find
Thats what we tell ourselves
You wont believe the things
A heart could tell a mind
Somehow we sell ourselves on love
I just dont think Ill believe my heart this time
I oughta know the language well
Ive heard me tell myself these things before
I finally made my mind up
My heart tells me to look for something more
Determined not to wind up wondering was she the one
Well, you never can be sure

Oughta Know By Now
You oughta know by now
That a man cant hold on forever,
So why do you keep waiting here
When you know it makes me want you more?
You oughta know by now
How it fells to be loved,
So why dyou keep me hanging here,
With this stone around my heart, dragging me down, down, down
When all Im trying to do is trying to get next to you, let me in, let me in.
You oughta know by now
Or maybe someone should show you
That a man needs to be loved
And even in this mans world
With you it dont come easy
You oughta know by now
That no man can sleep at night
With a burning in his heart
That would tear this man apart
Take me out of my misery,
cos all Im trying to do is trying to get next to you, let me in, let me in.
You oughta know by now
Just how good it feels to be wanted,
And no man could love you more,
So why cant you show me something,
Just a little bit of something?
You oughta know by now
All the things a man has to do in his life,
And all these things I do
You know that I do it all for you, I do it all for you.
cos all Im trying to do is trying to get next to you,
Yes all Im trying to do is trying to get next to you.
Let me in, let me in,
Let me in your heart.

He Oughta Know That By Now
I guess he's working late again
I don't need to wonder where he is
But I do
He oughta know that by now
I know his work takes a lot of him
There's not much left for him to give
But I need more
He oughta know that by now
time
It's just too hard to hold on to what's never around
He oughta know that by now
He used to promise soon things would change
It's been years and it's still the same
And that hurts
He oughta know that by now
I've grown so used to being alone
Couldn't be much worse if I were gone
And in a way I am
He oughta know that by now
time
It's just too hard to hold on to what is never around
He oughta know that by now
Heart ache and coffee at midnight motels
Leaving him was hard as hell
But I did
And he oughta know that by now
I didn't try to explain
No goodbye underneath my ring
That was all I left
He oughta know that by now
That was all I left
And he oughta know that by now

Sitting on the stair
Which way to find someone
Look around the city
Lookin for my picture

Need someone to warm my soul
I dont know what soul

Looking for my brother
My brothers theyre all gone
Gone to drive
I drive to stay alive
Sometimes
You know whats on my mind

You know whats on my mind
Sometimes
You know whats on my mind
Sometimes sometimes sometimes
I found a friend
Before he drops me ? ? ?
I met this girl
She wouldnt love me
I made some noise
Oh it was ugly
See I played myself
I cant get lucky
What you thinking
Always thinking much to learn
Time to burn
Sometimes
You know whats on my mind
Sometimes
You know whats on my mind
Sometimes
You know whats on my mind
Sometimes sometimes sometimes
You oughta know whats on my mind

You know whats on my mind

Lovers, We Have
Someone's heart owned mine
but my heart's alone.
Someone's mind is always thinking
if he was on my own.
Someone's eyes have found me
but I guess I was blind.
Someone's lips are kissing mine,
but mine were cold, yet kind.
Someone's hand caress me...
though i thought I need not one.
But when your arms have found me,
I felt my strength's all gone.
Another's voice had called your name
but my heartbeat's have you heard.
and when her love was all she said,
you understand not a word.
It's funnily ironic but a sad one...
that lovers, we both have...
but love for them- none.

In Other Words
Youve got my heart in unfamiliar territory
Its never been out here on my sleeve
Here tonight with you its quite a diffrent story
You bring out a side of me no one has ever seen.
Theres somethin Im afraid to say to you too early
But Id be a fool to wait too late
My mind is cautious but my heart is in a hurry
Which ones right is really hard to say
Chorus:
In other words
I cant put I love you
In other words
When I look into your eyes
No other words
Can capture what Im feelin
My heart tells my head
Some things cant be said
In other words
Better men then i, have tried to find a better phrase
Still I love you has a ring Ive never heard
In other words
What we got here is a touchy situation
You smile as if you read my mind
Pair of I love yous gently ends this conversation
cause matters of the heart cant be defined
Chorus:
In other words
I cant put I love you
In other words
When I look into your eyes
No other words
Can capture what Im feelin
My heart tells my head
Some things cant be said

Better men then i, have tried to find a better phrase
Still I love you has a ring Ive never heard.....

One Sure Honest Line
I made a living writing lovers dream words,
I found the notes to hang them on
I fround a way to play with the meaning of things
And I came up with a couple good songs.
And so I oughta have an easy answer,
I oughta have some pretty things to say,
But I havent found the combination
Thatll make you change your mind and wanna stay.
So I wish I had one sure honest line to say over and over again
Sung in tune and time to a melody pure
One clear everpresent pulse in the pocket
And Im on the radio so youll know that I am yours
Listen to the laughter of the children
She scratched on the back of a bill
As we climbed past the road to the schoolhouse
On the burnt crust browning pan hill
To where they dont take sad for an answer,
A place at the corner of your heart,
Where music meets with memories,
So you can recognize the feeling from the start
How I wish I had one sure honest line to say over and over again
Sung in tune and time to a melody pure
One clear everpresent pulse in the pocket?
Im on the radio so youll know that I am yours
Theyll put us on the radio so youll know that I am yours

Well I just cant believe its time for leavin,
Even though Ive been deceivin you,
Guess I guessed that Ive been through it wrong again, baby,
Though I remember when I fell in love with you.
Dont you think we oughta try it one more time,
Baby Im not gonna let you go this easy,
Dont you think we oughta try it one more time,
Oh I just cant get you outta my mind.
After all this time weve been together,
It just aint right to throw it all away,
Yes I know we have seen some stormy weather,
Though I know tomorrows gonna be a brand new day.
Dont you think we oughta try it one more time,
Baby Im not gonna let you go this easy,
Dont you think we oughta try it one more time,
Oh I just cant get you outta my mind.

Every Beat
In every beat
Beat of my heart
I have a question in mind
One I don't understand
And that's when love makes me crazy
It seems the harder I try
Find I'm alone again
Holding my head in my hands
When all I really wanted
Someone to hear me calling
And set this heart of mine free
Chorus:
In every beat
Beat of my heart
You're everything I need
In every breath I breathe
Thoughts of you
In every beat
Strong in my arms I'll hold
When all my dreams are shattered
Deep in my heart is all that matters
Deep in my heart is where I'll keep all my love for you
There are times where I feel I finally found someone
That I could trust and believe in
But when I open my eyes
Must be to blind to see that I'm a fool once again
I'm tired of broken hearted
What a mess I've gotten
(Chorus)
When all my dreams are shattered
Deep in my heart is all that matters
Deep in my heart is where ill keep all my love for you
Free...
(Chorus until fade)

This is How I Feel About You
vs.1 When I look into your eyes,
I can see you feel this way.
I'd like to see into your mind,
To find how you feel today.
Every time I see you,
And when we exchange smiles,
We both know there're sparks a-flyin'
Every once in a while.
(Chorus) (You oughta know, that, baby)
Every time I see your face,
My heart starts racin.'
Every time you say my name,
I stop thinkin.'
Tell me what to do,
Cause I'm fallin' in love with you.
Yeah, you're always on my mind,
Even when I just can't find out why.
And I know you feel this way, too.
This is how I feel about you.
vs.2 When I'm without you,
There's no life in me.
I don't know what I'd do
If you ever left me to be.
I wanna stay in your arms
Every single day.
Please don't ever do anything
To make me fly away.
(Chorus)
(Instrumental)
(Chorus) x 2
Tell me what to do,
Cause I'm fallin' in love with you.
Yeah, you're always on my mind,
Even when I just can't find out why.

This is how I feel about you.

Good Love
Everytime I get to see you
I get this feelin
Its so fuzzy inside
And as soon as I walk away from you
Im still tasting your kiss
Saving it in my mind
Its not everyday I find
A guy that makes me smile all the time
Not the way that you do
All the guys I thought I used to love
Compared to you they dont match up
They got nothing on you
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
Baby you got somethin special
That has me thinking of settling down
Youre the one my mama told me
Would sooner or later one day finally come around
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
You bring me joy
And you bring me much pleasure
I could never see myself leaving you ever
Your soft touch is good and it cant get no better
You have got my mind so caught up
Im drunk off of your good love
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And theyll do anything for you
A good love
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to

Thinkin' Again
=========================================================================
The trouble I found could've never found me
Chase my feelings around, my thoughts runnin' free
The heart catches things that the mind's eye won't see
And I'm not nearly as blind as I thought I could be
CHORUS
I used to think my way into some hard times
I used to think I knew how low I've been
So much thinkin' I finally gave up on my mind
Now here I go thinkin' again
Now I see myself down to the bottom again
And I'm likely to drown with these thoughts pourin' in
The trouble I found is the trouble with you
And I can't stand the sound of me thinkin' it through
REPEAT CHORUS
Here I go thinkin' again

I Think About You
I oughta be workin'
But I can't concentrate
I oughta be sleepin'
'Steada stayin' up late
When I oughta be doing all the things I should do
I think about you
I oughta be writin'
But I can't find the song
Just sittin' here driftin'
Driftin' along
There's only one thing that I wanna do
And that's think about you
Chorus
I think about you - I can't get no rest
I think about you - there ain't no one else
It's all I can do - I can't help myself
Ya - I think about you
I could go cruisin'
But I've had enough
I could go drinkin'
But I can't stand the stuff
It just don't do me like it used to do
I'd rather think about you

Ive Found A Reason
Written by ricky & kim wilde
Been a long time alone now
Only live every day on my own terms
Doing everything my way
If you dont understand you had to learn
You say you see a different world
That you dont believe in what I say
Now you walk into my world
Aware of the danger
But you wont turn away
Somewhere down the road I left a part of me behind
The girl you want to know left years ago
Before she lost her mind
You brought back the heart in me
I thought Id never find
cos I didnt care before
But now Ive found a reason
Baby, how did you find me
Ive been lost for so long without a trace
You came back to remind me
Got me back from a sad and lonely place
And all the ghosts have disappeared
Youve taken away the things Ive feared
Ive turned my back on all the pain
You gave me a reason to llive my life again
Somewhere down the road I left a part of me behind
The girl you want to know left years ago
Before she lost her mind
You brought back the heart in me
I thought Id never find
cos I didnt care before
But now Ive found a reason
You were there before my eyes
How could I have been so blind
Ive got one life
Ive been wasting time
You came to save this heart of mine
And all the ghosts have disappeared
Youve taken away the things Ive feared
Ive turned my back on all the pain
You gave me a reason to llive my life again
Somewhere down the road I left a part of me behind
The girl you want to know left years ago
Before she lost her mind
You brought back the heart in me
I thought Id never find
cos I didnt care before
But now Ive found a reason
Now Ive found a reason

I Finally Found Somebody
Well I finally found somebody,
Who lives to give their love to me, only me.
She takes away my worries,
Shows me how true love's meant to be, what a relief.
Now love don't have to be a ball and chain,
Or somebody pullin' on a puppet string.
Danglin' you around,
Like you got no mind all.
Love don't fade when the dog days come,
And hangs in tough 'til it sees the sun.
And I finally found somebody who,
Lets that love light shine on through.
Well I finally found somebody,
Who welcomes me with open arms, into their heart.
Thank God, my search is over.
I found a four-leaf clover, love took me long enough.
Now love don't have to be a ball and chain,
Or somebody pullin' on a puppet string.
Danglin' you around,
Like you got no mind all.
Love don't fade when the dog days come,
And hangs in tough 'til it sees the sun.
And I finally found somebody who,
Lets that love light shine on through.
Lets that love light shine on through.
Well I finally found somebody.
Well I finally found somebody.
I finally found somebody.
I finally found somebody.

Things Meant To Be
You can find things meant to be
If you look hard into the sea
As the waves land on the beach
I feel her eyes fixed on me
Through the wind in the trees
Mother nature she speaks
Take what she says
Let your heart do the rest
It's in the wind
It's in the trees
It's in the way you smile
At me
It's in the waves up from the sea
It's in the way you feel
When you're pleased
It's all meant to be
It's all meant to be
Your heart knows where to go
But your mind can take it slow
It's okay to rest your mind
Let your heart seek and find
It's in the wind
It's in the trees
Listen hard and you
Will see
It's in the waves up from the sea
It's in the way you feel
When you're pleased

These are things like you and me

Lovin You Again
(roger ferris)
You call me from a phone booth with tears in your voice
Tell me youve been out all night runnin with the boys
You say youre cold and tired and lonely
And you got no place to go
There wasnt any phonebook
Mines the only number that you know
Well call yourself a taxi and Ill pay im at the door
If you dont mind sleepin on the sofa or on the floor
And I spend an hour hatin you
til the cab pulls in
My heart has found another way
To be loving you again
And every time is the last time
And every time is the first
Everytime is the last time with you
Oh it never gets no better
And it couldnt get no wore
Then I hear the footsteps the drivers at the door
He says I look familiar has he made this run before
And I tell him I dont think so
Whats it matter anyway
Just tell me what the meter reads
And Ill go and get your pay
Well now its down to you and me though it dont seem right
We both know where well be and what well do tonight
And after an hour or two
When the night comes to an end
My heart has found another way
To be lovin you again
And every time is the last time
And every time is the first
Everytime is the last time with you
Oh it never gets no better
And it couldnt get no worse
I know that there should be more to say Ill just reed your mind
Lets save whats left unsaid for another time
cause I know therell be another time
So until then
My heart has found another way
To be lovin you again
My heart has found another way
To be lovin you again
Oh, my heart has found another way
To be lovin you again
