Doctor
Were all running fast tonight
Rocket shoes on our feet
Theres a planet where its right
Im sure well get there by next week
I couldve been a doctor
I couldve been a lawyer
I couldve been a scientist
I couldve been normal
Especially in the daylight
You say dont worry while in flight
The darkness is like a fog
I wont get scared
I wont get tired
Ive been in space so damn long
The earth is just a big blue dot
I cant see the cars and planes
Theres a planet where its right
Im sure well get there by next week

Safe & Sound
Maybe this is forever
Forever fades away
Maybe this is a rocket into space
I dont want to be sad
I dont want to break down
After all I wont let go
Till youre safe and sound
Till youre safe and sound
Theres beauty in release
After all the scenes for you and me
I dont blame you for quitting
I know you really tried
Maybe we could have hold on through the night
Cuz I dont want to be lonely
I want to be scared
And all are friends are waiting there
Till youre safe and sound
Till youre safe and sound
Theres beauty in release
Theres no one left to please but you and me
Till youre safe and sound...
Feel like I couldve held on
Feel like I couldve let go
Feel like I couldve helped you
Feel like I couldve changed you
Feel like I couldve held on
Feel like I couldve let you
Feel like I was a stranger
Feel like I was an angel
Feel like I was a hero
Feel like I was a zero
Feel like I couldve touched you
Feel like I couldve saved you
Feel like I couldve moved you
Feel like I couldve held you
Feel like I couldve heald you
Feel like I couldve told you
Feel like I couldve loved you
Feel like I couldve loved you
Feel like I couldve loved you
Feel like I couldve loved you...

You Couldve Been The One
Written by john batdorf and sue sheridan, 1980
Found on alibi and ventura highway and other favorites.
Theres a bright light thats shinin in your face
You cant even see me at all
Oh, you look like an angel out of place
At this downtown devils bar
Do you wanna dance girl
You said no thanks
And I watched you drift away
Well you had your chance
You couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one
If I come back here I might see you again
And maybe youd say yes
But its a losin game Im tryin to win
And I can only guess
Do you have somebody (watchin)
Who watches you
As you let down your hair
By the light of the moon
You couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one
Knowin you couldve been the one
Where do you go when the night ends
Are you just a dream that fades into gray
Visions of you will not leave me alone
Why did you have to turn away
You couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one
Tonight you couldve been the only one
For the rest of my life
Ill be dreamin of you when this dance is done
Knowin you couldve been the one ...

The Way You Do The Things You Do
Youve got a smile so bright
You know, you couldve been a candle
Im holding you so tight
You know, you couldve been a handle
The way you swept me off my feet
You know, you couldve been a broom
The way you smell so sweet
You know, you couldve been some perfume
Well, you couldve been anything
That you wanted to and I can tell
The way you do the things you do
(the way you do the things you do,
The way you do the things you do)
As pretty as you are you know, you couldve been a flower
If good looks can cause a minute
You know that you could be an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know, you couldve been a cool crook
And baby, youre so smart
You know, you couldve been a schoolbook
Well, you couldve been anything
That you wanted to and I can tell
The way you do the things you do
(the way you do the things you do,
The way you do the things you do)
You made my life so rich
You know, you couldve been some money
And baby, youre so sweet
You know, you couldve been some honey
Well, you couldve been anything
That you wanted to and I can tell
The way you do the things you do
(the way you do the things you do)
You really swept me off my feet
(the way you do the things you do)
You made my life complete
(the way you do the things you do)
You made my life so bright
(the way you do the things you do)
You make me feel all right...

Couldve Been
(lois blaisch)
The flowers you gave me
Are just about to die
When I think about
What couldve been
It makes me want to cry
The sweet words you whispered
Didnt mean a thing
I guess our song is over
As we begin to sing
Chorus:
Couldve been so beautiful
Couldve been so right
Couldve been my lover
Every day of my life
Couldve been so beautiful
Couldve been so right
Ill never hold what couldve been
On a cold and lonely night
The members of our lovin
Still linger in the air
Like the faded scent of your roses
They stay with me everywhere
Everytime I get my hopes up
They always seem to fall
Still what couldve been is better than
What could neverepeat chor be at all
Repeat chorus
How could I hold what couldve been
On a cold and lonely night?

Maybe An Angel
I put my hands where your wings should be,
I put my feet where the earth should be
And I cant see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on.
Something I feel,
You are an angel, or maybe you couldve been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you couldve been.
Ive got this light hangs over me
Ive got this fear cuts into me
And I cant see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on.
Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you couldve been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you couldve been.
See how they run
And nobody said you would go
See how they fall
And I cant see very far
And when you said you were dead I hung on.
Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you couldve been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you couldve been
See how they run
See how they run
All the same, all the same
Something out here
You are an angel.

I Was So Lucky
Its no secret Ive been waiting
But I didnt expect this
Nothing will remain
Nothing stays the same
After you came
Its no secret Ive been starving
I never felt anything for years
I sat up all night
Just to watch your smile
When youre sleeping
I was so lucky you came by
And turned a different corner
I couldve been somewhere else
You couldve passed by, couldve passed by
Come on and sail the sea with me
Come on, lets go around the world
Maybe find a flat
Or a canyon house
For the season
I was so lucky you came by
And turned a different corner
It couldve been someone else
You had in mind
I was so lucky you found me
My rags turned gold and silver
I couldve been somewhere else
You couldve passed by, couldve passed by
What would you make of this, my baby?
The sun through the trees
Is there a better place to be?
I was so lucky you came by
And turned a different corner
It could have been someone else
You had in mind, oh my
I was so lucky you picked me
My trash turned to silver
Yea, I could have been somewhere else
You couldve passed by, couldbe passed by

Couldve Been You
Well it must have been good
cos you said it was love
I guess the day you left me
It wasnt good enough
Now youre calling my number
Say you wanna come back
Oh baby, baby its too late for that
cos when you see me
Therell be somebody new by my side
Somebody who is sure he is mine
Chorus:
When you see the smile on his face
Just remember baby
Couldve been you, couldve been you
When hes standing there in your place
I hate to say it baby
Couldve been you, couldve been you
Guess I should have been cool
Maybe I was too kind
When loving me was easy
You were hard to find
And when I cried over you babe
How the teardrops burned
Oh baby, baby now the tables turned
So if those tears start falling
When you see us walking by
I hope you wont forget who said goodbye
Chorus
Shouldve been you
But you threw it all away
Oh couldve been you
Standing here today
Couldve been you baby
So if those tears start falling
When you see us walking by
I hope you wont forget who said goodbye
You said goodbye

Do You Remember?
We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
Id call you up to say Im sorry
But I wouldnt want to waste your time
cos I love you, but I cant take any more
Theres a look I cant describe in your eyes
Yes we could try, like we tried before
When you kept on telling me those lies
Do you remember...?
There seemed no way to make up
cos it seemed your mind was set
And the way you looked it told me
Its a look I know Ill never forget
You couldve come over to my side
You couldve let me know
You couldve tried to see the distance between us
But it seemed too far for you to go.
Do you remember...?
Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know people are funny sometimes
cos they just cant wait
To get hurt again
Do you remember...?
There are things we wont recall
Feelings well never find
Its taken so long to see it
Cos we never seemed to have the time
There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But I love you wasnt one of those things
And now its too late
Do you remember...?

Shouldve Kept Your Distance
Somethings gone wrong
now i know whats going on
theres a place i need to be
theres some1 i need to see
theres suspicion in the air
theres some things that should be cleared
if im there....there will be hell
and i may end up in jail
but its for a serious cause
dont give a futz about the law
If they dont keep their distance
ill make sure theyre gone
before they use their senses
shouldve listened to my warning
shouldve never came back
couldve walked away....
but they didnt.....they chose to stay......
i wont need reinforcements
im not there....i guess i do
there wont be conversations
when i get there theyll be through
they couldve thought this out
but instead they just refused
and when theyre taken out
ill just be here.....amused
If they dont keep their distance
ill make sure theyre gone
before they use their senses
shouldve listened to my warning
shouldve never came back
couldve walked away....
but they didnt.....they chose to stay

In Your Letter
In your letter ooh in your letter
In your letter ooh in your letter
In your letter ooh in your letter
In your letter ooh in your letter
In your letter you said you didnt love me
You said youre gonna leave me
But you couldve said it better
Oh in your letter, you said you couldnt face me
You said you could replace me
But you couldve said it better
You couldve left him only
For an evening let him be lonely
But you hid behind your poison pen and his pride
You couldve told him something
And proved to me you dont love him
But you hid behind your future full of lies
Instrumental bridge
You couldve left him only
For an evening let him be lonely
But you hid behind your poison pen and his pride
You couldve told him something
And proved to me you dont love him
But you hid behind your future full of lies
In your letter you said you didnt love me
You said youre gonna leave me

Oh in your letter, you said you couldnt face me

Id Rather Be You
1986. released as b-side of single throwing it all away, 1987.
Ooh yeah
You know I never wanted to be closer
And Ill still be here until its over
No, no I never wanted to be closer
But youll be back, I couldve told you
Well I always knew
Yes I could see it coming
Your ambitious streak
You always want things beyond your reach
Well now youve got what you wanted
And youre free to be the things
You always said youd be
Youre up there looking down
Tell me what do you see - oh
Cos you know
You know I never wanted to be closer
And Ill still be here until its over
No, no I never wanted to be closer
Yeah, but youll be back, I couldve told you
Well it seems to me
That youve got to fight for yourself
In this world we live in
Its dog-eat-dog and never give in
Why worry when youre holding the aces
Dont throw it away cos you know
Id rather be you than me
Up there looking down
Tell me what do you see - oh
Hey hey yeah
Ooh yeah
You know I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
And Ill still be here til its over
No, no I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
Ooh but youll be back, I couldve told you
Its been a long time coming
But at last we seem to be moving on, straight ahead
Were finally getting something done
Time flies and fore you know it
Youll be getting closer to where
You always knew youd be
Up there looking down
Tell me what do you see - oh
Cos you know
No, no I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
Ill still be here until its over
No, you know I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
Yeah but youll be back, I couldve told you

Wednesday Morning
Written by gerry beckley, 1998
Found on human nature.
Wednesday morning was the last time we talked
I guess she figured it was better if she walked
It couldve been me just the same
Theres no winner in this game
Oh, wednesday morning was the last time we talked
Wednesday evening was the first time she cried
It couldve turned out different if Id lied
Something deep within us all
Sees the writing on the wall
Oh, wednesday evening we didnt talk at all
Ive been waiting every evening
Wondering what Im gonna say
Sometimes life can be deceiving
Wednesday wont go away
It couldve been me just the same
Theres no winner in this game
Oh, wednesday evening and nothing is the same
(oh) Ive been waiting every evening
Wondering what Im gonna say
Sometimes life can be deceiving
Wednesday wont go away
Wednesday morning, yeah
Sometimes life can be deceiving
Wednesday wont go away
Ive been waiting every evening
Wondering what Im gonna say
Sometimes life can be deceiving
Wednesday wont go away, yeah

The Last Thing On My Mind
Its a lesson too late for the learning
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin
In your hand, in your hand
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I couldve loved you better
Didnt mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
As we walk along my thoughts are tumblin
Round and round, round and round
Underneath our feet are someplace rumblin
Underground, underground
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I couldve loved you better
Didnt mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
Ive got reason a plenty for goin
This I know, this I know
The weeds have been steadily growin
Please dont go, please dont go
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
I couldve loved you better
Didnt mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I couldve loved you better
Didnt mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
You know that was the last thing on my mind

Dontcha Want Me Now?
Verse1:
Im evasive Im cool and Im nobodys fool
And Im layin it on the line
You looked a mess
Cause my little black dress
Stopped you on a dime
Dont even try it your ticket has expired
And Im just too tired to dance
Even if you want me
Youre not gonna get me
Cause baby you had your chance
Chorus:
Dont you want me now
Now that Im trying not to try so hard
Dont you want me now
Dont you wonder how
You couldve pushed this naive girl
To go so lowdown
The tables are turned somehow
Dont you want me now
Verse2:
Its not really me its somebody else
But Im lovin her just the same
The look on your face
When I walked in this place
Will remain forever on my brain
Cause the jokes on you
And its long overdue
Tell me can you take the heat
Wanting to hassle the king in his castle
Revenge never tasted so sweet
Chorus
Bridge:
Who cares who wins cause just the same
Im not into baby games
Yet you once swept me off my feet
Now look whos in the drivers seat
Chorus:
Now, now that Im trying not to try so hard
Dont you want me now
Dont you wonder how
You couldve pushed this naive girl
To go so lowdown
The tables are turned somehow
Dont you want me now
Dont you want me now
Dont you want me now
Dont you want me baby
Dont you want me now
Dont you
Dont you want me now

Verse 1:
Well if I looked all over this world
I dont think I would find someone so true
Someone like you
Oh and I know it may be too late
But ya know I cannot wait,
What should I do?
I still love you. oh...
Repeat:
When the stakes all are high
And the odds are all against us
Why do I still keep loving you?

You know you shouldve been the one
Our love couldve been something new
And now I dont know what to do
Oh, Ill never give up on your love
cause you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
cause you always will be the one
Verse 2:
Well, call me crazy or what you will
It doesnt change the way Ill always feel
cause this is real
Its nothing you ever said
Its all those crazy dreams that are in your head
(that are in your head) in your head
Alright now...
Here we go...
Repeat
Chorus
You know, our love couldve been something new
And now I dont know what to do
Because you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
You know our love couldve been something new
And now I dont know what to do
Oh, Ill never give up on your love

As If
It was more than a matter of knowin
Or the words that were finally said
It was more than the comin or goin
Or the things that were made in your head
It was more than a matter of wantin
And needin the foolish things I gave
As if I ever cared to make you cry
Couldve been right to know that it wast
Yet you knew I was sorry
I dared to make you cry
As if I would
As if I could
As if I tried
But the words that were finally spoken
Like the thoughts that remain in my soul
And hearts that were finally broken
And embrace that never be hold
And the words that I never told you
But I told you, the foolish things I said
As if I ever cared to make you cry
I couldve been right to know that I wasnt
Yet you knew that I was sorry
I dared to make you cry
As if I would
As if I could
As if I tried
As if I ever cared to make you cry
I couldve been right to know that I wasnt
Yet you knew that I was sorry
I dared to make you cry
Could have been strong but the words didnt rhyme
And the things that would come between us

From The Damage
This time Im done with always screwing up
Im sick of one direction down
Im a broken picture frame
My whole worlds twisted inside out
Streaming voices like a hurricane
Its telling me to wake up
Get out of bed
Put your feet on the floor
Theres fresh air out the door
And Ive been acting so pathetic
Knocking around like a ball on a string
Its taking time for me to get it
Im ready and willing to do anything to make it up to you
My arms are hurting so bad from being so empty
My heart weighs like a ton cause it feels so heavy
Im standing here all alone
Wishing that I couldve known
You just cant walk away
From the damage
Last time Im playing with a broken string
It dont matter no ones listening
Cause losing you has made me see
Ive gotta change
Gotta blame it
All on me
And Ive been acting so pathetic
Knocking around like a ball on a string
Its taking time for me to get it
Im ready and willing to do anything to make it up to you (oh)
My arms are hurting so bad from being so empty (so empty)
My heart weighs like a ton cause it feels so heavy (heavy yeah)
Im standing here all alone
Wishing that I couldve known
That you just cant walk away
From the damage (damage)
My eyes may as well be blind if I just cant see you(if I cant see you)
My hands may as well be tied cause they just cant touch you (touch you)
Before the smoke can really clear away
From fires I started yesterday
I know Ive gotta find a way
Somehow Ive gotta find a way to wake up
From the damage
My arms are hurting so bad from being so empty
My heart weighs like a ton cause it feels so heavy
Im standing here all alone
Wishing that I couldve known
You just cant walk away
From the damage
My eyes may as well be blind if I just cant see you
My hands may as well be tied cause they just cant touch you
Im standing here all alone
Wishing that I couldve known
You just cant walk away
From the damage
Im standing here all alone
Wishing that I couldve known
You just cant walk away

Planet Earth
I heard a girl in a dress
Say her face was a mess
I heard theres no reason why
I heard that nows the time to buy
On planet earth
Ill probably stay
On planet earth
Its a place to live your life
Where pleasure follows pain
People go insane
Fly around in planes
Pray that it wont rain
Drive around in cars
Get drunk in local bars
Dream of being stars
Well I lived all my life on planet earth
I saw a girl lose all control
When she lost her new mink stole
I saw her try to catch a man
Things I couldnt understand
On planet earth
Ill probably stay
On planet earth
Its a place to live your life
Where pleasure follows pain
People go insane
Fly around in planes
Pray that it wont rain
Drive around in cars
Get drunk in local bars
Dream of being stars
Well I lived all my life on planet earth
I saw a man on a stage
Scream put me back in my cage
I saw him hang by his tie
I saw enough to make me cry
On planet earth
On planet earth
I lived all my life on planet earth
I lived all my life on planet earth
On planet earth

Bright Lights
Times running out just as fast as it can
Shes leaving me cold
I dont understand
Hearts beating hard on the edge of the floor
Gotta kill this pain cause I cant take no more
Bright lights on a cold night
If it feels good then its alright
Thinking about when we first met
All these memories kill me
Get them out of my head
The flashing lights of the cities roar
Make my mind a blurr
Whos knocking on the door
Nothings for keeps
Cant get no sleep
My future is late
Guess Ill find it next week
Bright lights on a cold night
If it feels good then its alright
Shes caught up in the spotlight
See her up there in a new york fashion show
See the freedom in her eyes
Couldve chose a better time
For it all to go wrong
Another night and my life is my own
But it scares me half to death
Out in the bars in the village with friends
You can buy me a drink
But please dont mention her name
Bright lights on a cold night
Shes up there in the spotlight
Now its over and its goodnight
Bright lights (x 3)
See her up there in a new york fashion show
See the freedom in her eyes
Couldve chose a better time
For it all to go wrong
Bright lights on a cold night
If it feels good then its alright
Bright lights (x 2)
