Run away! Run away!!!

And maybe I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days.

If a great wave shall fall
And fall upon us all
Well, then I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you.

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time.*

Burrito Supreme, oh **

It's hard to rely on my good intentions
When my head's full of things that I can't mention
Seems I usually get things right
But I can't understand what I did last night

And it's hard to rely on my own good senses
When I miss so much that requires attention
I have to laugh at myself sometimes
And I can see that I'm not blind

There's little relief
Give us reprieve, oh**
For all the things I've left behind
I'm positive that I'm not blind*

** I always sing this as "burrito supreme" because my then-boyfriend used to do it to annoy me. And I totally pretended to be miffed by it because it made him laugh that laugh I loved. :)

10 days...100 days...distance sucks all the same :(

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me*

Somewhere in my mind, I'm a badass ;)


I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines

What's fucked up when everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me

My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'til then I walk alone*

Bratty....sorta

Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me now... 

I'm falling even more in love with you 
Letting go of all I've held onto 
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
And I don't know what I'm diving into
Just hanging by a moment here with you*

Totally amazing changes...always evolving

Totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me

All my life

Is changing every day
In every possible way

And oh my dreams

It's never quite as it seems
Cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me*

Could this be it?! :)

Life goes on
It gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night
She closed her eyes
In the night, the stormy night
Away she'd fly.

And dreamed of para- para- paradise

Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh
...

So lying underneath those stormy skies.

She said oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
I know the sun must set to rise.

This could be para- para- paradise

Para- para- paradise
This could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.*

Holy gorgeous eyes, Batman!!!

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

14 years ago today, I did! :)

I'm gonna marry my love
And we'll be happy for all time.
Yeah, he's the sweetest man you could find.
So gentle and so kind.
And he's got those big brown eyes
I can't believe me luck, he's mine,
Not that he's no wuss.
Girls, you know his love is serious.
So warm inside,
When he takes me for a buggy ride,
When he takes me for a buggy ride.

To all my loves...near & far...Thank you for your love


Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away, I will always love you
However long I stay, I will always love you
Whatever words I say, I will always love you
I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again

Can't wait to have my arms around my loves!

I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide
Ooh, slide

And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall
Oh, May
Put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
Oh, May
Do you wanna get married Or run away?*

Time to go!

Closing time
Time for you to go out go out into the world
Closing time
Turn the lights up over every boy and every girl
Closing time
One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
...

Closing time

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end*

Someday is NOW! Time to live OUTLOUD!

You can go
You can start all over again
You can try to find a way to make another day go by
You can hide
Hold all your feelings inside
You can try to carry on when all you want to do is cry

And maybe someday
We'll figure all this out
Try to put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to make things better now and
Maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow
Someday

Now wait

And try to find another mistake
If you throw it all away then maybe you can change your mind
You can run, oh
And when everything is over and done
You can shine a little light on everything around you
Man it's good to be someone*

Two peas in a pod

No good you say
Well that’s good enough for me

You’re the wreath that caught fire

You’re the preach to the choir
You bite down on the sheet
But your teeth have been wired
You skid in the rain
You’re trying to shift
You’re grinding the gears
You’re trying to shift
And you’re the same kind of bad as me

They told me you were no good

I know you’ll take care of all my needs
You’re the same kind of bad as me*

Bid me to feel again

Now that I know what I’m without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I’ve become

Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead*

Separate worlds

Mutual misunderstandings
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act

We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns

Cold, cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better baby
Just passing through

And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
No sacrifice at all

I gave my heart
I gave my heart
I gave my heart
I gave my heart*

A beautiful answer

You, pull me through,
When I’m alone in the dark and the fear was my truth.

Yeah, all the things that you are,
Beautifully broken, alive in my heart,
And know that you are everything,
Let your heart sing and tonight, we light up the stars,
All that you are.*

Yep! I know that feeling


You push me, I don't have the strength to
Resist or control you
So take me down, take me down

You hurt me but do I deserve this?
You make me so nervous
Calm me down, calm me down

Wake you up in the middle of the night to say
I will never walk away again
I'm never gonna leave this bed*

Music to sway to...

And long after I've gone
You'll still be humming along
And I will keep you in my mind
The way you make love so fine
We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the music low and sway to the rhythm of love *
