Honored

And all I can say
Is you blow me away

Like an apple on a tree
Hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
But you picked me
Like a shell upon a beach
Just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
But you picked me
Yeah you picked me*

Illusion of choice

Now all of these voices
And all of these noises
With all their illusions of choices
They've come to my door
With one dozen roses
The imitation of good faith
Is how you stumble upon hate
It may have been the first of mistakes
When we held on too loosely
Then opened the gates*

Choices!

Two Princes*
by Spin Doctors

One, two, princes kneel before you (That's what I said, now)
Princes, princes who adore you (Just go ahead, now)
One has diamonds in his pockets (That sounds great, now)
This one, said he wants to buy you lockets (Ain't in his head, now)

This one, he got a princely racket (That's what I said, now)
Got some big seal upon his jacket (Ain't in his head, now)
Marry him, your father will condone you (How 'bout that, now)
Marry me, your father will disown you (He'll eat his hat, now)

Aww, marry him or marry me,
I'm the one that loves you b-baby cant you see?
Ain't got no future or a family tree,
But I know what a prince and lover ought to be,
I know what a prince and lover ought to be....

Said, if you want to call me baby (Just go ahead, now)
An' if you'd like to tell me maybe (Just go ahead, now)
An' If you wanna buy me flowers (Just go ahead, now)
And if you'd like to talk for hours (Just go ahead, now)

Said, One, two, princes kneel before you (That's what I said, now)

One has diamonds in his pockets (And that's some bread, now)
This one, he wants to buy you rockets (Ain't in his head, now)

Marry him or marry me,
I'm the one that loves you baby can't you see?
I ain't got no future or a family tree,
