I got a premonition goin' round in my brain I got a premonition things ain't the same Cuz it's late at night and you're not home It's late at night and I'm all alone Well, I got these things goin' round in my head Like maybe my woman - she just want me dead And all these things we've left unsaid We say 'em again! I got my suspicions when we talk on the phone I didn't know your roommate baby had a voice that low But don't be mistaken. Could I accuse you of wrong? Is it even worth tryin' baby, are you already gone? Well I got these things goin' round in my head Like maybe my woman - she just want me dead And all these things that we've left unsaid We say 'em again! I got these things goin' round in my head Like maybe my woman - she just want me dead And all these things we left unsaid We say 'em again! I got a premonition I got a premonition I got a premonition Yeah Yeah Yeeaaah Yeah!

Champagne and memories have gone straight to my head With your perfume that lingers on the blankets of my bed Though you've only left this morning I must see you again Cuz I tried to tell you once but now I know it must be said how More and more yes my heart it beats for you More and more yes I need you through and through More and more I just wanna be with you You're the vision of perfection just look in my direction Just once more - more and more We stood together on the chapel roof As I held you so tightly as we searched for living proof Threw a cheesecake into the darkness And laughed at all the stars As I tried to find the words that were written in my heart like More and more yes my heart it beats for you More and more yes I need you through and through More and more I just wanna be with you You're the vision of perfection just look in my direction Just once more - more and more It's four and the morning and you've got me thinking How I could stay with you And without a warning, the fog is clearing On the path I thought I knew When you leave the burden of what was certain In you fallen yesterdays If you come callin' well I'll come running I'll come running all the way See I'm just learning how to breath For so long I have been broken, but I'm learning how to see And I know I'm just learning how to fall Swear I was born here this morning and I'm learning how to crawl and I know I'm just learning how to breath Learning how to breath So give me something to believe Champagne and memories have gone straight to my head With your perfume that lingers on the blankets of my bed Though you've only left this morning I must see you again Cuz I tried to tell you once but now I know it must be said how Chorus: More and more yes my heart it beats for you More and more yes I need you through and through More and more I just wanna be with you You're the vision of perfection just look in my direction Just once more - more and more More and more More and more

Hear the sound of falling rain Do you think it'll be like this again? Your cat rolling on the floor As I come running to your door Hear the sound of falling rain Somehow you get me through the strain You do it every day Well, did I ever say how . . . I love the way you fit in my arms Yes it's cold outside, but girl you keep me warm I love the way you fit in my arms And I need you more than yesterday I love you even more than yesterday Thunder's loud, but it's outside In your room, we've got a place to hide Well we've got no T.V. But girl you're all I need So how could I compete? Well it's your scent that keeps my pillows sweet And you win every game Wouldn't want it any other way because . . . I love the way you fit in my arms Yes it's cold outside, but girl you keep me warm I love the way you fit in my arms And I need you more than yesterday I love you even more than yesterday I'm starting to see All the wonders we could be I think you're all I need Forgive me girl, but I'm coming clean, because . . . I love the way you fit in my arms Yes it's cold outside, but girl you keep me warm I love the way you fit in my arms And I need you more than yesterday I love you even more than yesterday I love you even more than yesterday I love you even more than yesterday

Love on a wire Girl I’m inspired by you Love on a wire I saw you dancin’ in a club last night You were looking out of sight You said, “I’m not here for you, I’m out here with my girls.” I said, “Come on, won’t you save me a dance?” You said, “Boy, you once had a chance, but you blew it. You blew it when you were chasing some stupid girl. You were chasing some stupid girl.” Well, I’m sorry Laura McHugh But what was I to do? You look so good with your blue eyeliner What am I to do? What am I to do about you? You kissed me once then you kissed me twice. I said, “Hey, that was kind of nice.” You said, “The rest can live in your imagination.” I said, “Laura, tomorrow I’ll be gone.” You said, “Boy, write it down in a song, Cuz tonight – our night – our night is over.” I’m sorry Laura McHugh But what was I to do? You look so good with your blue eyeliner What am I to do? What am I to do about you? It was love on a wire Girl I’m inspired by you Love on a wire Love on a wire Girl I’m inspired by you Love on a wire Well, I’m sorry Laura McHugh But what was I to do? You look so good with your blue eyeliner What am I to do? What am I to do about you? What am I to do about you? What am I to do about you? What am I to do about you? What am I to do? What am I to do? What am I to do about you?

When they look back a hundred years from now What will they say or will I have faded away? With all the time, did I put it to good use? I spent it well cuz I spent my time with you And darlin' I was thinking about what you said You know I never meant to make you made In all the good times, all the bad You're the best thing I ever had So woman just meet me down the line If you got the patience, I got the time Show a little faith, I will pay you in kind Cuz you're always - you're always on my mind You're on my mind When it all comes down to a fading sun It burned so bright. Girl, you are the only one. So let it fade cuz I would never trade a piece of a moment From all the love we made And darlin' I was thinking about what you said You know I never meant to make you made In all the good times, all the bad You're the best thing I ever had So woman just meet me down the line If you got the patience, honey, I got the time Show a little faith, I will pay you in kind Cuz you're always - you're always on my mind You're on my mind And in this life, I was searching for a truth That I found when I spent my time with you And darlin' I was thinking about what you said You know I never meant to make you made In all the good times, all the bad You're the best thing I ever had So woman just meet me down the line If you got the patience, I got the time Show a little faith, I will pay you in kind Cuz you're always - you're always on my mind You're on my mind

Who has two thumbs and doesn’t give a shit? Who saw the light and said it’s time to quit? Well, that guy won’t be coming around no more You can board up your windows, But I won’t be at your door Cuz that guy’s not here anymore And I was thinking about the times I had you Girl, you’ve been looking like a burnt banana Cuz your skin can only take so much sun Well you only disappoint me and you stopped being fun And this guy knows when to cut and run You can keep your pills and poison Don’t try to tantalize I’ve seen the new day dawning And I’ve opened up my eyes We were a cold combination But now I realize That you, you don’t cut it for me No you, you don't cut it for me Who has two thumbs doesn’t give a shit? Who saw the light and said it’s time to quit?

And the voice in my head said rock was dead I said shut up cuz you're a homewrecker Let it fill up your speakers. Let it blow up your mind. And if you wanna kill me, you better get in line. Get in line! Cuz there's a war goin' on not inside of my brain And people dying and people in pain And you wanna find an undying truth But the way we're living, what's the use? What's the use? Little Voices, little voices Undercutting all of my choices He said she said What's going on? Is tomorrow the setting sun? Setting sun I was deader than disco, caught out in the rain Trying to cover all the blood stains But the truth you cannot hide Like when I stare into your cocaine eyes Your cocaine eyes Little Voices, little voices Undercutting all of my choices He said she said What's going on? Is tomorrow the setting sun? Setting sun I'm gonna be there when you need me Love you completely - that you cannot doubt Eyes of love, you are staring, enter arms so caring You cannot doubt I'm gonna catch you when you burn out Little Voices, little voices Undercutting all of my choices He said she said What's going on? Is tomorrow the setting sun? Setting sun

Maybe we're the only ones so girl you gotta remember this When you took your hand in mine And when I held you for the very first time For better or for worse I'm a blessing and I'm a curse You're everything I cherish You're every little thing Every little thing I cherish And you can't shake me if you tried You got my heart and soul on fire You're every little thing Every little thing I cherish Hell yeah, hell yeah! Remember when caught your name? Well you should have known better. I was hopin' that you'd feel the same Well, I should have known better. But the worst of times I've seen the best of you You gotta heart of gold I'm gonna stick like glue Oh girl! You should have known better and that . . . That for better or for worse I'm a blessing and I'm a curse You're everything I cherish You're every little thing Every little thing I cherish And you can't shake me if you tried You got my heart and soul on fire You're every little thing Every little thing I cherish Hell yeah! For better or for worse I was a blessing and I was a curse You're everything I cherish You're every little thing Every little thing I cherish Hell yeah!

We cross a line from time to time We may get caught, but we pay the fine You can’t look cool all the time We’ve seen the world We know it’s thankless We ran with cowboys Danced with gangsters Yet, we may get out alive So baby baby please don’t hurt me Your love your love it leaves me thirsty And I don’t wanna be here without you And baby baby I know you’re crazy But maybe maybe it’s why you amaze me And it just doesn’t work without you We never had a perfect plan I hid in the dark as the other man 'til I thought it was better if I’d leave I’d think about you now and then And how I miss my best friend Gotta find a way to make you see So baby baby please don’t hurt me Your love your love it leaves me thirsty And I don’t wanna be here without you And baby baby I know you’re crazy But maybe maybe it’s why you amaze me And it just doesn’t work without you And baby I miss you through the lonely night Gotta find a way to make things right I love how you’d kiss me when I was asleep Girl you bring out the best in me We cross a line from time to time We may get caught, but we pay the fine You can’t look cool all the time We’ve seen the world We know it’s thankless We ran with cowboys Danced with gangsters Yet, we may get out alive So baby baby please don’t hurt me Your love your love it leaves me thirsty And I don’t want to be here without you And baby baby I know you’re crazy But maybe maybe it’s why you amaze me And it just doesn’t work without you

It’s a long road out of Eden And it’s warm in the desert sand. I sailed the seas of peril Saw the lights of the distant lands. On the other side, I’m a rambler Where they claim, I’ve lost my way I’m just a recluse and gambler But baby hear what I got to say I just wanna to hold you I wanna make you understand Don’t you know that You could be my baby and I could be your lovin’ man I saw the moon over Paris It ain’t got nothin’ on your eyes I’m just a poor fool trying to express A love he can’t describe I just wanna hold you I wanna make you understand Don’t you know that You could be my baby and I could be your lovin’ man You see it’ll be fine cuz we got time You get in trouble and I will throw you a line Cuz I could be yours and you could be mine Yours and mine – we’re livin’ in the sunshine It’s a long road out of Eden and it's warm in the desert sand But it’s a whole lot better baby if you just take my hand I just wanna to hold you I wanna make you understand Don’t you know that You could be my baby and I could be your lovin’ man I just wanna hold you I wanna make you understand Don’t you know that You could be my baby and I could be your lovin’ man I could be your lovin’ man I could be your lovin’ man

I can say I lived forever in just one day When all my troubles fade away Troubles fade away See you there. We simply smile and then we stare. People laugh and I don’t really care They just fade away. Think I have it all Maybe I have it all? Maybe I was waiting for you? Try not to fall That’s when you fall harder Baby I was waiting for you. In the car, you said the journey didn’t seem so far. Time goes faster and we can say We lived forever today. Setting sun said the daylight had to run Lie beneath the starry sky Troubles fade away Think I have it all Maybe I have it all? Maybe I was waiting for you? Try not to fall That’s when you fall harder Baby I was waiting for you. Fade, fade away Troubles fade away Let them fade away. Think I have it all Maybe I have it all? Maybe I was waiting for you? Try not to fall That’s when you fall harder Baby I was waiting for you. We can say we lived forever in just one day When all our troubles fade away Troubles fade away

I want a girl who's insecure like me Who gets real mad and soils the sheets Thinks every word I say is a lie Says my looks don't hypnotize She loves that undying hatred when she looks into my eyes And knows that I would kill any other guy Yes, it's true and what about you? Well, I need a girl with low self-esteem Let's me trample her dignity Funny when she starts to cry When I tell her how I cheat and lie She loves that undying hatred when she looks into my eyes And knows that I would kill any other guy Yes, it's true and what about you? She loves that undying hatred when she looks into my eyes And knows that I would kill any other guy Yes, it's true and what about you? I need a girl who's insecure like me Who gets real mad and soils the sheets Thinks every word I say is a lie Says my looks don't hypnotize She loves that undying hatred when she looks into my eyes And knows that I would kill any other guy Yes, it's true and what about you? Well, I need a girl screwed up like me Like the girls in therapy She holds my hand until it bleeds Abandons me in my time of need But she loves my straightjacket And my imaginary friend Sam She loves all my personalities And thinks that we're all hams Yes it's true and what about you? Well you're a keeper
