Pushing Up Daisies
Sometimes I tell you
The way that I feel
I swear that
Im going crazy
Keep telling myself
It aint that big a deal
Its better than
Pushing up daisies
I felt the arrow from
Deaths fatal quiver
Come so close
It actually grazed me
I bled the blood and
I felt the cold shiver
God only knows how
He saved me
[chorus:]
Theres two dates in time
That theyll carve
On your stone
And everyone knows
What they mean
Whats more important is
The time that is known
In that little dash
There in between
That little dash
There in between
Sometimes my heart is
As true as a dove
Sometimes my heart
It betrays me
So I draw my sword for
To fight for my love
But without a whisper
She slays me
My mother died but
Somehow she keeps living
Shell never cease to amaze me
Now dad turns his back
On each day that hes given
Because hed rather be
Pushing up daisies
[repeat chorus]

Daisies Pushing Up Roses
“I’m pushing up daisies, but I wish they were roses.”
I am a doormat, and everyone knows it.
The pain I’ve felt through the years.
The pain I’ve dealt with has caused me fear.
How could someone hurt someone else on purpose?
Then leave them aside feeling worthless.
They leave lasting scares on your heart.
The words that hurt make you feel like your falling apart.
You’re taking life away from an innocent child.
What did you do grow up in the wild?
All the words, all the pain, make me want to walk in the rain.
The tears I’ve cried.
The times I wished that I had died are all now going to be put aside.
I’m pushing up daisies, but that’s okay.
The sun will come up soon.
There will be a new day.
Roses have thorns that may prick you, and its pretty appearance could trick you.
So be a daisy, flow in the breeze.
So I’ll go through life being the only me.

When Love Looks Back At You
(jack hues)
I feel the tension
In your hand
Im on a plane to a
Foreign land
So far away with no
Telephone line
Im flying into spring
And leaving winter behind
I know itll be winter
In your heart
Icy stone cold winter
All the time were apart
Chorus:
As I look at you
Looking back at me
The wordless tears in your eyes
Whats inside of you?
Whats inside of me?
You may not realize for days and days
The consequences of that gaze
When love looks back at you
When love looks back at you
Love is a monster
With a need to devour
All who fall
In her power
And love is a sweet thing
With a need to caress
Security, stability and happiness
Im flying, flying from
Reality
Where two things can be true
Simultaneously
Repeat chorus
I feel a cold wind
In the street outside
A plane flies low
Through the rain-filled sky
Winters come to get me
And its tearing me apart
As cool blue summer
Floods your open heart
Repeat chorus

Whats In Your World
Tell me what world youre living in
Im trying so hard to understand
Searching my soul just so find any line
That connects me to whatever you are hiding
Remember how we used to be
We shared the best baby, the best of everything
Now it seems like were slowly drifting apart
Tell me when did we stop communicating
Heart to heart
Chorus:
Whats in you world
Whatcha trying to hide from me
I cant fight what I cant see
I need so know whats going on
Whats in your world
Im standing here with a broken heart
Trying to stop before l start
Falling all over again
Baby I need to know
Need for you to show
Whats in your world
Girl lm not ready to walk away from you
Unless you say that its over and done, I know
Iii do what I gotta do
Lts time to remind you that loves on the line
So baby say what you gotta say
But if youre gonna walk away (tell me)
Chorus: (repeat)
Now Im sure you understand
That a man must be a man
Ive got so many promises to keep
Maybe lm in too deep
Cant see tho other side
And baby all I want to do is satisfy
How can I give you what you need
When youre not telling me

Heart Turns To Stone
The days and nights you sit around wondering where can
She be
Hoping that she might appear, out of nowhere
But you fail to see
All the hurt inside, the wounded pride
Ooh what she went through for you
You cheated and lied, as her love slowly died
And her heart just broke in two
When she was with you, all along
Behind you right or wrong
She tried to hold on, hold on
But you went too far, and shes gone
And now its over and her heart turns to stone
No time for pity, when her heart turns to stone
She cries a little as her heart turns to stone
Shes that kind of woman
Shell do fine on her own
What you thought was a game
A game you were winning
Wouldnt go your way
Now youve lost what you had
And your back to the beginning
Its the price you have to pay
When she was with you, all along
Behind you right or wrong
She tried to hold on, hold on
But you went too far, and shes gone
And now its over and her heart turns to stone
No time for pity, when her heart turns to stone
She cries a little as her heart turns to stone
Shes that kind of woman
Shell get by on her own
She hides the pain
But her heart turns to stone
No time for pity
When her heart turns to stone
She cries sometimes
As her heart turns to stone
Shes that kind of woman
Shell get by on her own
Yeah its over
And her heart turns to stone
Dont look for pity now
When her heart turns to stone
Listen to her cry
Listen to her cry
Shes a woman now
Ooh its a sad thing to see
To see a heart turn to stone
The heart of a woman
A heart turned to stone

Whats Love Got To Do With It
You must understand
Though the touch of your hand
Makes my pulse react
That its only the thrill
Of boy meeting girl
Opposites attract
Its physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore
That it means more than that
Chorus
Whats love got to do got to do with it
Whats love but a second emotion
Whats love got to do got to do with it
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken
It may seem to you
That Im acting confused
When youre close to me
If I tend to look dazed
I read it some place
Ive got cause to be
Theres a name for it
Theres a phrase fits
But whatever the reason
You do it for me
Repeat chorus
Ive been taking on a new direction
And I have to say
Ive been thinking bout my own protection
It scares me to feel this way

I Swear
I have never seen an angel standing oh so close to me
I have never touched someone and felt so electricity
I am taken over by the endless possibilities
And I'm waiting for the day you say that you belong to me
I swear
No one will ever love you better
I swear
We could be so good together
[Chorus:]
I never wanted anyone the way I want you (baby)
I never met someone who gives me everything you do
I swear
If I'm with you there's no other
I swear
There will never be another
Cause of you there are more reasond to be thatnkful everday
Cause of you I'm reminded of the chances I should take
It't the comfort of your warm embrace that shelters all the rain
And there's nothing I wouldn't give for you to feel the same
I swear
No one will ever love you better
I swear
We could be so good together

Deep In My Heart
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, I want you for the rest of my life,
Oh yeah
Walking through time looking for an answer
How can it be this way
What have I done, I just cant help but wonder
How everything could change
cause youve turned my world around

After this love was found
It seems like we cant go wrong
Chorus: deep in my heart I know theres only you
And right from the start I always knew
Ill never let go cause I love ya so
Oh-oh, I want you for the rest of my life
Some people search what seems to be a lifetime
To find a love like this, oh yeah
And here we are with everything weve wished for
Ive never felt such bliss

And I believe it wont happen twice

Nothing Without You
Everyday and Everynite, I try to be so strong.
Every inch of me cries out for you whenever youre gone.
Wherever I go I always hear you calling,
Always inside of me.
I cant believe how hard Im falling,
Baby I cant believe, ooh youre all I need.
(CHORUS)
When my heart beats now,
Its not the same somehow,
Theres nothing I can do,
Coz Im nothing without you.
To give so much of myself over anyone,
I know its wrong, so wrong.
I dont know what youve got over me,
But make it go on and on.
Just tell me the nights will last forever,
Say Im the only one.
How can this love Im feeling get much better?
I was alright alone, ooh but now I know.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
I remember laying down,
For a heart cut out of stone.
Held her body close to mine,
But all I felt was cold.
Now youve come into my life and I know,
Being close to you is what I need most.

Everyday and everynite I try to be so strong.

Attention (feat. Raphael Saadiq)
[Verse 1:]
I know that life has felt us many cards,
Sometimes I swear he's trying to make it hard, and i don't want to have to hide me faults.
But he got busy and let down the gaurds.
[Chorus repeat 1x:]
I need attention, from you, it's just the little things we do, pay attention it's on you,
Cause i can't help it i just like it when you do, yeah.
[Verse 2:]
I don't wanna nag and start a fight.
But sometimes you forget and i get tired.
If he was out of sight and out of mind.
So dawlin listen and just make it right.
[Chorus repeat 1x]
[Bridge:]
You make my heart monsoon baby, and we could make life through baby,
So take my hand and we'll glide the way.
[Chorus repeat 1x]
[Verse 3:]
Why would you follow now?
Just look me in my eyes.
Remember what makes me smile, you use to make me high, let's go way
Back in time, come baby lay me down.

The Heart
My daddy was a charmer, boys, he had a lot of style
He was shining best at everything he did
They said that he could lighten up a room with just a smile
And I was proud as hell to be his kid
It seemed like just as we were growing close together he was gone
But it was long enough to show what I could be
And I sometimes feel his spirit fill my body like a song
And this is what my daddy sings to me
Chorus:
If they deal you down and dirty in a way you dont deserve
Youll feel better if you take it like a man
If you let em drive you crazy, boy, theyll shut your business down
Shake it off and get your licks in when you can
cause the heart is all that matters in the end
They say every song is sweeter when you sing it from the heart
I wont knock it cause I tried it and its true
I may never get to heaven, but Ive seen a lot of stars
And Im here to bring the same advice to you.
Chorus:
If they deal you down and dirty in a way you dont deserve
Youll feel better if you take it like a man
If you let em drive you crazy, boy, theyll shut your business down

Jealous Again
Cheat the odds that made you
Brave to try to gamble at times
Well I feel like dirty laundry
Sending sickness on down the line
Tell you why
cause Im jealous, jealous again
Thought it time I let you in
Yeah, Im jealous, jealous again
Got no time, baby
Always drunk on sunday
Tryn to feel like Im at home
Smell the gasoline burning
Boys out feeling nervous and cold
(repeat 1st chorus)
Stop, understand me
I aint afraid of losing face
Stop, understand me
I aint afraid of ever losing faith in you
Never felt like smiling
Sugar wanna kill me yet
Find me loose lipped and laughing
Singing songs aint got no regrets

Dont you think I would
Dont you think Id tell you baby

Visionary Dreamer
By your smile,
I know you think
Im just a dreamer
And that the way I act seems
Often kind of foolish,
But eyes can lie,
And sometimes words are oh so useless.
Oh youre part of me,
The rest is history.
There is a light that shines above you when
Im near you
That somehow tells me all the things we
Never say.
And in my heart,
I sense a love that lasts for always.
Yes our dreams were true,
Its just we never knew.
Chorus
I love you,
Yes I do,
There is no doubt.
I love you,
And there aint no doubt about it.
Repeat
In your eyes I see you a visionary dreamer,
And all at once they say youre acting like
A fool.
The world may change,
But it can never really harm you,
For theres a love thats true,
Thats deep inside you.
Soon the time will come for us to say
Goodbye,
But all the visions of our friendship will
Remain.
And every time I see a child look to the sky,
I will remember you.
We shared a love oh so true.
Chorus
I love you,
Yes I do,
There is no doubt.
I love you,
And there aint no doubt about it.
Now as I gaze out of my window to
The stars,
It seems somehow our little lives are oh
So strange.
I close my eyes and feel the universe within
Me.
And youre part of me,
And you will always be.
Chorus
I love you,
Yes I do,
There is no doubt.
I love you,
And there aint no doubt about it.

Saved By Love
Laura loves her little family,
And shes the kind of woman who loves them with her life.
But sometimes in the evening,
When the world rests on her shoulders
With four walls closing in,
Shell close her eyes.
Oh....
Its not like she misses being younger,
Though she never was in vogue magazine or on tv;
Her husband loves her dearly,
And the morning shows her clearly,
Kisses her little baby girl.
Laura, shes the queen of the world.
Cant imagine ever leaving now,
Now that shes been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
Listen to her quiet heart singing loud.
Laura, shes been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
I know that shes been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
Saved by love.
Theres nothing quite like my familys love to warm me,
And nothing short of deaths gonna ever leave me cold.
Well, still at times its lonely,
But through it all it only
Makes me love jesus more,
And this is what he came here for.
I cant imagine ever leaving now.
Now that Ive been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
Hes gone and turned my crazy world back around,
And Ive been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
I know that Ive been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love....
Oh, Im never leaving now,
Now that Ive been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
Hes gone and turned my crazy world back around,
And Ive been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love.
Amy, shes been saved by love,
Saved by love, saved by love....
Saved by love.
Im saved by love.
Thats right.
And nothing I can say,
Nothing I can do, nothing I can say.
Were all just saved by love.
Nothing you can say, nothing you can do.
Only love can say, only love can do,
Only love can say.
Only love can say, only love can do,
Only love can say.
Im say-yay-yaved by,
Im saved by, by,
Nothing you can do, nothing you can say,
Only love can say....

Do you wanna make my dream come true
Let me be the one to kiss and hold you

Living in love this whole life through
Do you wanna be in love forever

Is there magic in your smile
Taking me under
Got me acting like a child

Hits me like avalance

Hugging you, holding you, kissing you boy

Ooh, oh darlin, say youll be mine
