Taking My Chances
J. spinks
Im calling out but theres no one to hear me
Im so afraid cos theres nobody near me
All that Ive got are memories of tuesday
I cant remember anything she said
Then in a moment my head starts spinning
Around in a circle no end or beginning
And just when I think that the whole worlds turning
I open my eyes and discover that life is just
Burning down but this man stands his ground
For when theres nothing left Ill fight for every breath
(chorus)
Dont turn your back on me baby -
Im taking all my chances
Why cant you hear what Im saying -
Im taking all my chances
And when youre alone with nobody to turn to
You look in the mirror and think that its untrue
In your reflection are you sure that you see
The person that youve always wanted to be but
You never were because you feared yourself
And in your deepest thoughts, you looked for someone else
(chorus)
(repeat verse 1)

Taking Me Over
You dont remember me, but I remember you.
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you.
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do.
[chorus:]
I believe in you.
Ill give up everything just to find you.
I have to be with you to live, to breath...
Youre taking over me.
Can you know what I know and all we have.
You saw me mourning my love for you and touched my hand.
I knew you loved me then.
[chorus]
I look in the mirror and see your face, if I look deep enough.
So many things inside that just frighten you are taking over.
[chorus 2x]

Run To Me
Verse 1:
Run to me when you need someone to talk to
Run to me when youre alone and you need a friend
Run to me when youre without and you need some love girl
And when youre lonely inside and you forget how to smile
Run to me and Ill keep you safe from harm
Chorus:
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
You know you can run to me when you need to cry
Never hesitate
Never be afraid
You know you can run to me and Ill keep you safe
I just wanna be the one
You can turn to
Verse 2:
Run to me when you need someone to count on
Come to me when you got something on your mind
Run to me when everything starts to fall apart
And when its bringing you down
And no one else can be found
Ill be waiting for you with open arms
Chorus:
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
You know you can run to me when you need to cry
Never hesitate
Never be afraid
You know you can run to me and Ill keep you safe
I just wanna be the one
You can turn to
Bridge:
One thing you need to know
One thing I promise you
Ill be there for you for always
One thing you need to know
You need to know is true
I do it out of the love for you
Chorus:
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
You know you can run to me when you need to cry
Never hesitate
Never be afraid
You know you can run to me and Ill keep you safe
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
I just wanna be the one you can turn to
Run to me

Sprung
(VERSE 1)
Baby, when you look my way
You keep on blowin my mind
You keep on makin me high
Keep giving me butterflies and
Every little thing you do
Just lifts me off of the ground
Heart leaps when you come around
See, Im just breakin it down
You got everything I need, just
Want you to want me, you
Just cant imagine, boy
Im on a tangent
(CHORUS)
Cause Im sprung over you
And aint nothing I can do
Turning me upside down
Boy, you got me twisted out
Thoughts of you fill my head
Toss and turn in my bed
Cause Im sprung over you
And I dont know, dont know what to do
(VERSE 2)
Oh its hard to make believe
Its just a casual thing
Youre so unnerving to me
Feels like Im living a dream, but
Baby, please dont wake me up
Im lost in the reverie
Drifting ethereally
Im right where I wanna be
You got everything I need, just
Want you to want me, you
Just cant imagine, boy
Im on a tangent
(CHORUS)
I dont care bout nothing but you baby
(Nothing but you, baby)
I dont care bout nothing but you baby

Turns To Stone
A thousand miles underneath my emotions
Hidden from the eyes of everyone
No one must know
All the secrets if my soul anymore
No never again
Girl youve got the only key
To open up the door only you
Eventually, even that could change
Chorus:
I will wait for you
But I dont want to wait forever
Cause Im on my own
Im trying to keep the fire from getting cold
I will wait for you
But I dont want to wait
Until our love turns to stone
I dont want to turn to stone
I dont want to spend another night without you
Im afraid my mind will start to wander
Time between us,
Hours turning into days, into years
Oh, oh, oh
Looking back at what went wrong
Some things we must let you
Eventually, somethings got to give
(chorus)
I dont want to turn to stone

Could This Be Love
There was a young girl
Ridin on the wind
She had all of the answers
Didnt need to pretend
I remember - she was the only friend I ever needed
Now I wonder
How to work it all out
My hands are tremblin
Ive got this feelin now
Bridge:
Theres a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
Thats been there from the start
Dont tell me all the look you gave
Were the ones that I misread
cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head
Chorus:
Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling
Got a fast education
Holding you in tears
Someone finally hurt you
After all these years
Got to get my message to you somehow
Now youre lookin in my eyes for courage
Too late to think this through
Baby
There must be somethinbg we can do

Wherever You Go
Bottle of scotch whiskey not very smooth
Like snake bite cure from the medicine man
Not bad poison if theres something to soothe
Its a whole other world in the palm of your hand
Out of this world and out of your mind
Just like it dont matter what youre leaving behind
Trying to change your life you change your point of view
But no matter what you do its the same old you
Wherever you go there you are
You can run from yourself but you wont get far
You can dive to the bottom of your medicine jar
But wherever you go there you are
Bottle of scotch whiskey whatever you find
When youre out on a wire its a matter of time
Changing every moment when youre taking the fall
Theres everything to gain when youre losing it all
Feel your head spinning with your feet on the ground
You climb the wrong ladder and its keeping you down
Think youre gettin higher but youre still layin low
You dont want to be anyone you know
Repeat chorus
Once youve been bitten its like crossing a line
Its a part of the plan all thats on your mind
Think that itll help you find somebody to be
But the man in the mirror is all youll see
Repeat chorus

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.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Everyday and everynite I try to be so strong.

Miss You
Chorus:
It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do
Said I been needin' you
I'm wantin' you
Wonderin' if you're the same
and who's been with you
Is you're heart still mine
I want to cry sometimes
I miss you
Verse 1:
Off to college
Yes you ran away
Straight from high school
You up and left me
We were close friends
Awesome lovers
Did everything for one another
Now you're gone
And I'm lost without you here now
But I know I gotta live and make it somehow
Come back to me
Can you hear me (callin')
Hear me (callin' for you)
For you
(repeat chorus)
Verse 2:
Now I'm sittin' here
Thinkin' 'bout you
And the days we used to share
It's drivin' me crazy
I don't know what to do
I'm just wonderin' if you still care
I don't want to let you know
That it's killin' me
I know you got another life
You got to concentrate
Baby
Come back to me
Can you hear me (callin')
Hear me (callin' for you)
For you
(repeat chorus 2x)

I can't think no more
Since you went away
I don't really feel like talkin'
No one here to love me
Baby do you understand me
I can't do a thing without you

The Way You Want It
(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Peepin through your window
You spy me walkin to your door
Maybe you are havin second thoughts
Like you did before, boy
Theres no hesitation on my part
I want all I can get
Boy youre playing with a naked flame
And theres not much you can do about it
Chorus:
Do it just the way you want it
Do it just the way you feel
Do it like you always like to do
Do it like you always wanted to
Baby, dont be foolish
Its what youve wanted all along
And dont you try to fight it
Because the force is far too strong

Ill Lead You Home
Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Wandering the road of desperate life
Aimlessly beneath the barren sky
Leave it to me
Ill lead you home
So afraid that you will not be found
It wont be long before your sun goes down
Just leave it to me
Ill lead you home
Chorus:
Hear me calling
Hear me calling
Just leave it to me - Ill lead you home
A troubled mind and a doubters heart
You wonder how you ever got this far
Leave it to me, Ill lead you home
Vultures of darkness ate the crumbs you left
And you got no way to retrace your steps
Just leave it to me
Ill lead you home
Chorus 2:
Hear me calling
Hear me calling
Youre lost and alone
Leave it to me
Ill lead you home
Chorus 2
So let it go and turn it over to
The one who chose to give his life for you
Leave it to me
Ill lead you home
So let it go and turn it over to
The one who chose to give his life for you
Just leave it to me
Ill lead you home
Leave it to me
Ill lead you home

Going Under
I hear the door slam shut, so I know that youre home
Youve been out all night, Ive been here alone
And Ive been wondering if youre the same person I knew
The bright lights that shine in your eyes, they make me blind
I hear a footstep on the stairs so I know that youre near
Youve returned from pursuing your nocturnal career
And I dont ask where youve been, with who, or if theyre your friend
cause I dont really want to know right now, I dont know when I will again
Chorus
Going under, drifting down, going under
And I know youve still got a ways to go down before
We can rise back up into the light
Were going under, drifting down...
I hear you coughing in the hall so I know youre all right
It will be morning soon, through the gloom I see daylight
But in this room right now I am alone, I am unsure
I dont know what you feel anymore and it scares me so

Anyone Can Do The Heartbreak
Take another step
tell another lie
hide another tear
in the corner of your eye
I don't understand
what kind of game is this we're playing
dancin' in the dark
shadow's in the night
slowly going wrong
trying to make it right
the silence is so loud
I can't hear the words we're saying
CHORUS:
Anyone can do the heartbreak
everybody knows the dance
oh it's so easy to do
you tear a dream in two
to kill a true romance
anyone can do the heartbreak
anyone can make love end
it's gonna take a little pain
some fire and some rain
to bring it back again
I know you're afraid
baby so am I
you think you're going to fall
all you want to do is fly
we're up against the wall
and love is the chance we're taking
so baby look into my heart
tell me can't you see
I belong with you
you belong with me
when I hold you in my arms
we can hear the music playing
REPEAT CHORUS
And it's one step forward
and two steps back
well we keep on moving
but we're only losing ground
we've got to turn this love around

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.

How Could I
It was a coldest day in December
A day I always will remember
I looked into your eyes
And faced my deepest fear
I had drifted too far
Far from you my dear
[Chorus:]
So how could I
Turn away from the one I love
How could I
When I know what my heart's made of
Could it be
That your soul lives inside of me
How could I ever say good-bye
Why was I so afraid to tell her
That for her I would fight a thousand soldiers
But just like an angry child
I kept my feelings locked inside
There were rivers of tears
Flowing from her eyes
[Repeat Chorus:]
When you fall in love
You never know how long it lasts
But the one thing I knew in my heart
Is that I was fading much too fast

If you looked in my life
And see what Ive seen...
If you looked in my life

When youre feelin down
You should never fake it
Say whats on your mind
And youll find in time
That all the negative energy
It would all cease
And youll be at peace with yourself
You wont really need no one else
Except for the man up above
Because hell give you love

Dont you know, I know
We all are struggling
I know it is hard
But we will get by
And if you dont believe in me
Just believe in he
Cause hell give you peace of mind
Yes he will
And youll see the sunshine
For real, yes you would
And youll get to free your mind
And things will turn out fine
Oh, I know that things will turn out fine
Yes they would, yes they would

Your eyes reflect love and desire
I see that you need me

Hot as a pistol of flaming desire
