Lover, You Should have come over
Never Tear us apart
Old Love
- There's a new sensation
- Sweeping all the nation,
- and they're calling it bare ballin it, bare ballin it.
- Well i seem to have forgotten that crucial layer of cotton
- I'm ballin it, we're all in it, we're bare ballin it,
- There's nothing that you don't see,
- After my jeans it's only just me.
- Call me a "Fleshy Fernando",
- I'm goin commando!
- I'm ballin it,
- There's a new sensation sweepin all the nation,
- and they're callin it (they're callin it)
- they're callin it (they're callin it) bare ballin it
- if melody is my destiny
- then what's left of me
- I'll give to you
- if next to me
- is all that you need to be
- would you settle for fantasy
- if its the best you could do
- can I have my cake
- can I have you too
- would you follow me
- could I ask you to
- would the world between us
- break these ties
- we've work so hard to realize
- can postcard say
- what I see in your eyes
- could I ever break away
- would I be satisfied
- and find peace inside
- rolling half my life
- over broken white lines
- can I have my cake
- can I have you too
- would you follow me
- could I ask you to
- will I wake up one morning
- and see your face
- and streaks on the window
- that the rainstorm makes
- could you bear all the weight
- and the strength that it takes
- could I ever break away
- can I have my cake
- can I have you too
- would you follow me
- could I ask you to
- would the world between us
- break these ties
- we've worked so hard to realize
- can a postcard say
- what I see in your eyes
- could I ever break away
- There's a new world coming through
- And theres nothing we can do
- Theres a new time, its coming by
- All I want is mine
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out by nine
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out alive
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out by nine
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out alive
- On the road and the highway I drive
- Your mine oh
- Theres room to fly
- Gotta get out sometime, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out by nine
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out alive
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out by nine
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out alive
- Its not my own way of getting down
- Not the only time to stop and look around
- Its means everything
- Don't know where I am
- Can't see nothing but I may have to ??
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out by nine
- Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out alive
- Got a ticket for a trip I wanted long ago
- Starin deep into her cryin eyes
- Stand in line and now I changed my mind
- I used to run and never look behind
- But now
- I now I got a love to leave
- And now
- Not gonna walk away so easily
- I cant take that, no I cant take that
- I cant take that plane today
- I cant take that plane
- I cant take that plane
- Plane lands short a man on the other side
- Drive stands with a sign in vain
- Checks his watch and sighs at the time gone by
- Two lonely pieces circle baggage claim
- But yeah
- now I got a love to leave
- And yeah
- Don't you know it changes everything, everything
- I cant take that, no I cant take that
- I cant take that plane today
- I cant take that plane

- I'm comin to getcha
- I'm comin to getcha now
- I'm comin to getcha now
- I'm comin to getcha now
- Oh comin to getcha now
- I'm comin to getcha now
- Distance is the reason she and me don't really talk no more.
- It's written on my ticket information on the freezer door.
- Hey, I'm not sorry I got what came coming for me,
- It's only everything I wanted all life long.
- Love was made to devastate ?
- wish my love could stay around a little more.
- Distance.
- Distance.
- Distance.
- Is what it is.
- Is what it is now.
- Distance makes a woman want to hear 'I love you' more than once.
- If I could find the word that feels remotely like the feeling is.
- Hey, I'm still lucky I will not succumb to all this.
- I'll blame temptation by the women all my life.
- Cos love was made to devastate only closest ?
- Love will a find a love that's closest all the time.
- Distance is...
- Distance.
- Distance is...
- Distance.
- Is why I leave before I hear myself say goodbye again.
- Goodbye, goodbye.
- Distance makes a copy of my face, she will bend inside her dreams.
- The blood on all these clothes from the telephonic surgeries.
- Distance makes a man believe that loyalty is a thankless chore.
- Loyalty is the reason I leave semen on my hotel floor.
- Yeah.
- Distance is...
- Distance.
- Distance is...
- Is what it is.
- Is what it is now.
- That autumn leaves fall dry and sweet
- Tells me everything is not broken
- No everything is not broken
- If everythings not fine
- If everythings not fine
- That nature rains on flames we made
- Should tell you everything is not broken
- No everything is not broken
- If everythings not fine
- If everythings not fine
- And I will find the colours in my life
- The places and times it was now
- And I will walk outside on my own into the light
- The kind of clarity that only comes to me on Sunday's shine
- Sunday's shine
- It tells me everything is not broken
- No everything is not broken
- If everythings is fine
- And everything is fine
- If everything is fine
- If everthing is fine
- I like to eat an orange
- With my friend George Malakornge
- I like to eat an orange
- With my friend George Malakornge
- So juicy sweet, so good to eat,
- An orange with George Malakornge
- Fold me up
- Take me out
- I'm portable
- Fold me up
- Take me out
- I'm portable
- I'm here on the road
- I seem to have it all
- We bolt it to the floor
- Or we tape it to the wall
- Fold it up
- Fold it up
- It's portable
- Take me out
- Fold me up
- I'm portable
- I put a map up on my ceiling
- To fight that lonely feeling
- In my bed
- If you want to know what my life's about
- Sometimes I'm here and I still freak out
- It's just inside my head
- The tape would not reveal a thing
- Sometimes I'm looking around my back
- To find the zipper and open it up and be twice my size
- I want to find the highest peak
- Stand up tall and with a shriek say "I'm alive"
- Cause I can go anywhere
- I can go anywhere
- I can go anywhere
- I can go anywhere
- I said "Pull the bus over John"
- He said "Why, do you got to pee soon"
- I said "I want to sleep outside underneath the half full moon at night"
- Cause I can go anywhere
- I can go anywhere
- I sing my songs
- Confident in the knowledge that you'll be here to sing along
- Fold me up
- Take me out
- Boy you know I'm portable
- I went out walkin tonight
- I guess I need to
- Everything that I had
- I waited on
- Gave til I gave all I had, but kept a little
- finding it hard to believe everything is gone, gone, gone
- how am i gonna run back home
- with a heart so heavy
- how am i gonna make my way when i can't find the road
- how am i gonna beat this pain when i can't see how deep it goes
- heaven knows, but i don't
- faith is a thankless design
- but i still choose it
- i fall on it all of the time
- but it carry on
- i always lived by the line
- was good as a circle
- what does it do for me now
- everything is gone, gone, gone
- how am i gonna run back home
- with a heart so heavy
- How am i gonna make my way when i can't find the road
- how am i gonna beat this pain when i can't see how deep it goes
- heaven knows, heaven knows, but i don't
- how am i gonna run back home
- with a heart so heavy
- how am i gonna make my way when i can't find the road
- how am i gonna beat this pain when i can't see how deep it goes
- heaven knows, heaven knows, but i don't
- i still believe in love
- i still believe in love
- i do, i do
- i still believe in love
- Once upon almost every mornin
- I woke up to find her flying in
- Hummingbird was making blurs with blue and wings of purple in the air
- All the while, I was trying to keep her there
- Now I'm man enough to leave
- Man enough to always care
- Hummingbird
- Hummingbird
- Thats song I heard
- That's my hummingbird
- Just because I said I didn't want it
- Doesn't mean I want her to go
- In fact I quite depended on it but i didnt want her to know
- Now that she is gone that I,
- All the while, I was trying to keep her there
- Now I'm man enough to leave
- Man enough to always care

- saw you sleeping on the couch tonight
- though it serves you right
- makes you luckier than I
- all the colors in the room have changed
- the painting yesterday
- brother I discover you
- we're pushing on
- we're passing through
- it won't be long
- 'til I walk with you
- tonight I'm down
- I'm inside out
- staring at the pictures in the album you forgot about
- isn't it a shame
- times have changed
- but isn't it strange
- lifelines stay the same
- we're never where we want to be
- but that's ok with me
- its just the way it is he say
- it feels like make believe
- but you're my history
- brother I've rediscovered you
- we're pushing on

- staring at the pictures in the album you forgot about
- isn't it a shame
- times have changed
- but isn't it strange
- lifelines stay the same
- round and round
- can't believe my heart is waiting this long
- all along we've been children
- in a cold world where wonder was
- lost everyday
- if love was a compass
- oh I've lost my way
- "The best thing about being on the road is that now I can write my big road opus.
- I can write my big song about being on the road, which I couldnt do.
- Cuz every artist has to have that sort of like..."
- I strolled into town on a Friday night
- Another lonely town
- Did I mention that it's a brand new town on this Friday night?
- It's the town that I'm referring to
- When I refer to this town
- The coffee's stale
- And the cigarettes have...tobacco in them
- And...lightening...
- violent skies
- 10 am
- falling on my knees again
- outside in the underground
- proud in the rain
- I'm walking a straight line
- stepped on all of the cracks this time
- I don't care I'm not moving aside
- for anyone
- outside in the underground
- proud in the rain
- outside in the underground
- there's no way out of here today
- I raise my head up to the sky again
- and make my way alone
- I'm never home
- but I've stopped searching
- cause the city told me so
- it all comes down
- down to me
- oh I've got a hundred lives
- oh I've got to get it right
- oh who knows someday I might
- outside in the underground
- underground
- proud in the rain
- outside in the underground
- there's no way out of here today
- I raise my head up to the sky again
- and make my way alone
- I'm never home but I stopped searching
- cause the city told me so
- it all comes down
- down to me
- oh I've got a hundred lives
- oh I got to get it right

- You think i'm just a boy who's
- consumed by all his fears
- the fact that you should have seen me
- same time last year
- same time last year
- oh the same time last year
- living fifteen over
- shortly over the nick of time
- i'm sad like a boy
- but I smile like a man
- its the best way that I never understand
- I wish I would have made it
- I hate the view from here
- I didn't think I saw my wife that summer
- that same time last year
- oh the same time last year
- oh the same time last year
- oh the same time last year
- Take all of your wasted honor
- Every little past frustration
- Take all of your so called problems
- Better put em in quotations
- Say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say waht you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- Walkin like a one man army
- fightin with the shadows in your head
- livin out the same old moment
- knowin you'd be better of instead
- if you could only
- say what you need to say
- Say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say waht you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- Have no fear for givin in
- have no fear for givin over
- you better know that in the end
- its better to say to much
- then never to say what you need to say again
- Even if your hands are shaky
- and you faith is broken
- even as the eyes are closin
- do it with a heart wide open
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to say
- say what you need to
- say what you need to
- say what you need to say (repeat through)
- Is there any way to know when it's over?
- When will you show her?
- Will you be done?
- Is there any day that slowly rolls over
- That will know that your last war was won
- How will you ever know?
- How will you know...
- How will you ever know when you're
- Sleeping at the crash site
- Walkin on the wreckage
- Somebody's past life, another one's older
- Where the fire burned, the grass began to grow
- Nobody walks there, everybody knows that
- OOhhh...
- How will you know?
- Simmering...
- How will you know,
- How will you know?
- Is there anyone who pulled it off easy
- Spoke what they were thinking and
- Moved on to the next city and
- Is there anyone who let them down gently and
- Moved on to the next, I don't know
- How will you know?
- Ooohh
- How will you know?
- That you been
- Sleeping at the crash site
- Resting on the wreckage
- Somebody's past life
- Somebody's old love
- Resting on the wreckage
- Somebody's old love
- Somebody's old love
- People have the right to fly
- And will when it gets compromised
- airports see it all the time
- I was gonna play "Wheel" but now I changed my mind
- Sleepin' at the crash site...
- Sleepin' at the crash site...
- Sleepin' at the crash site...
- Restin on the wreckage
- So much old love
- So much old love
- I can feel your body when I'm lying in my bed
- There's too much confusion running round through
- Runnin round through...
- sometimes
- I wish that I was the weather
- you'd bring me up in conversation forever
- and when it rained
- I'd be the talk of the day
- sometimes
- I wish that I was a cold beer
- I'd rest assured that you would hold me near you
- I'd be guaranteed to be just what you need
- and there could be no other way
- cause you're so vain
- your tired words are all the same
- I would surely walk away
- if I wasn't such a sucker for you
- sometimes
- I wish that I was a bong hit
- you'd let me in and love every minute
- and tell the room
- the things I did to you
- and there could be no other way
- cause you're so vain
- your tired words are all the same
- I would surely walk away
- if I wasn't such a sucker for you
- I see your world with rosy colored glasses on
- what a right would i see wrong
- I could never have that power over you
- someday
- I'm gonna pack up and leave this town
- I'm gonna get my own place going on
- and when I do
- I'll forget about how
- you're so lame
- your tired words are all the same
- I would walk away
- if I wasn't such a sucker for you
- On a sailboat
- I am slowly floating nowhere
- Lost the memories of where I am and why
- Black ocean churning
- A million stars are burning
- Planetariums were right about the sky
- Once upon a day I set off on a journey
- Wishing on the wind take me far from home
- Now I'm on the waves
- And I'm taking on water, hard to see, I won't always be alone
- There was a time when August sun was high and centered on me
- But it did me on my back and settled down
- Used to scream through the land used to size it in my head
- But it fell behind the line that leads to sky
- Once upon a day I set off on a journey
- Wishing on the wind take me far from home
- Now I'm on the waves
- And I'm taking on water, hard to see, I won't always be alone
- Inside this storm whipping in the wind
- My sail is torn In other words, the ends, are never not my own
- Hard to see I won't always be alone
- I'm a sailboat out of here
- Slowly floating nowhere
- Then someday I'll wash upon someone else's shore
- Hold on to whatever you find, baby
- Hold on to whatever will get you through
- Hold on to whatever you can, baby
- Cause I don't trust myself when I'm loving you
- I'm not the man I used to be lately
- I haven't told that my heart just yet
- I will talk my love a thousand roses
- I might leave it on a water
- Hold onto whatever you get, baby
- Hold onto whatever will get you through
- Don't know how much longer I'll be here, babe
- Cause I don't trust myself
- Loving you
- Say, who do you love?
- Who do you love?
- Who do you love?
- You better call 'em up
- You better call 'em up
- I would talk myself forever in your arms
- And then I'll wrestle to get out when I'm there
- Cause I can't tell you what I think I really want
- Cause when it comes down to it, I don't really care
- I don't even care
- Hold onto whatever you want, baby
- Hold onto whatever will get you through
- Don't know how much longer I'll be around, baby
- Cause I don't trust myself when I'm loving you
- Who do you love?
- I gotta get proof
- I'll be waiting,
- Hold on to whatever you want, baby
- Hold on to whatever will get you through
- leave right now i'm tired of talking baby
- Cause I don't trust myself loving you
- Hold onto whatever you want, baby
- Hold onto what you thought you needed
- The wind round here blows everything away
- And I don't trust myself with loving you
- I don't trust myself tih loving you
- I know it's early
- And you hardly even know me but
- I want your love so bad
- So bad I'm bout to fuck it up
- Could you tell me what to say?
- You must have heard that line
- About your eyes a million times
- And now you're holding out to hear about your chin
- I bet that that could get me in, let me in
- Could you tell me what to say?
- Tell me what to say..
- When you were young and playing princess
- in your mothers dress
- Into the mirror, dreaming what your prince would say.
- I know you still remember to this day.
- Could you tell me what to say?
- tell me what to say..
- Say...
- tell me what to say..
- And sure it's unfair
- I might lose all self-respect
- those who say I should be myself
- they have obviously never met you yet
- So I can tell by the way your eyes roll
- The way you stab the ice in your glass that its over
- I see you signaling to a friend, whispering "make this end"
- You should have told me what to say..
- Told me What To Say..
- Say..
- This will all make perfect sense someday
- I'll be A-Okay
- All my bills have all gone paid
- I crashed the car again
- I broke the bank
- This coulda been a slow song
- A laundry list of all my wrongs
- But at the end of the day
- This is my beautiful disaster piece I've made
- Gonna laugh I know the pain is here
- This will all make perfect sense someday
- I'll be A-Okay
- There's got to be a reason for the rain
- I don't understand the numbers
- But my faith is in the math
- And come someday these twisted ties will tangle
- And we'll look back and laugh
- And to all the hearts I've broken
- And the ones that once broke mine
- I've got suspicions, all will be forgiven in time
- Gonna look you in the eye and say
- This will all make perfect sense someday
- I'll be A-Okay
- There's got to be a reason for the rain
- And if it ever gets bad
- I mean stay in bed bad
- I'll move to Nova Scotia
- Forget the life I had
- I'll be up at 9 each morning
- Down by the shore
- Collecting things that fell off boats in storms
- Well ok so I might never
- But it's nice to know the option's there
- This will all make perfect sense someday
- I'll be A-Okay
- There's got to be a reason for the rain
- And it doesn't help
- That i keep biting my lip in the same place
- Basically nothing has changed
- she explained
- We're so happy you're home again
- you take the winter
- get back on your feet
- your bed is being made
- and your father washed the sheets
- for you
- So we talked awhile
- about all my woes
- their smiles worse
- than i told you so's
- when she said wash up
- and get to bed
- i knew the freedom i learned
- Id learned quickly to forget
- and nobody understands
- and nobody seems to care
- about the compromise of a man
- comin home after five long years
- giving up after five long years
- unpack my bags in the living room
- smell the last of her sweet perfume
- came with the girl
- that went with the world
- that i traded in today
- just to live a safer way
- and nobody understands
- and nobody seems to care
- about the compromise of a man
- comin home after five long years
- giving up after five long years
- she says youre always welcome here
- you'll never be alone
- perhaps thats now my greatest fear
- i'll always call this home
- this home
- Why Did You Mess With Forever?
- I came by to get my things
- Thank you for gettin' the door
- But I don't feel right walkin' in no more.
- Your quiet, I'm cold
- I did my cryin' at home and
- I'm numb now, I'm numb now.
- Before I'm on my way,
- I've one more thing to ask,
- Was it worth the price you paid
- for my never coming back?
- Why did you mess with forever?
- Ooh hoo ooo
- What a long time to be unkind.
- Why did you mess with forever?
- Don't you call me cruel
- Cruel's what your making me do.
- Stick to my rules, I'm at odds with
- my heart.
- Something tells me I should look
- you in the eye, Goodbye.
- Before I'm on my way,
- I've one more thing to ask,
- Oh, was it worth the price you paid
- for my never coming back?
- Why did you mess with forever?
- Ooh hoo ooo
- What a long time to be unkind?
- Why did you mess with forever?
- You asked to kiss me
- once goodbye
- But you already did on somebody
- Else's lips
- Tell the tiny chemicals
- the ones you hold responsible
- They lost me
- you lost me.
- Now, everything inside me tells me
- I should run to you and throw my arms around you,
- Hold your steamin' crying cheek against
- my own and tell you nothings wrong
- but, wrong is what you were when
- you forgot that we were goin' on.
- We were goin' on,
- we were goin' strong.
- Tell me, why did you, why did you mess with forever?
- Ooh hoo ooo
- Such a long time to be unkind?
- Why did you mess with forever?
- Forever, forever.

- We got heads on sticks
- You got ventriloquists
- We got heads on sticks
- You got ventriloquists
- Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed (x4)
- Rats and children follow me out of town
- Rats and children follow me out of town
- Come on kids...
- Looking out the door i see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
- Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
- And maybe i'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
- But tonight you're on my mind so you never know
- When i'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
- Where are you tonight, child you know how much i need it
- Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run
- Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
- And much too blind to see the damage he's done
- Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-one
- So i'll wait for you... and i'll burn
- Will I ever see your sweet return
- Oh will I ever learn
- Oh lover, you should've come over
- 'Cause it's not too late
- Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
- Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
- My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come
- It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
- It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when i slept so soft against her
- It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
- It's never over, she's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
- Well maybe i'm just too young
- To keep good love from going wrong
- Oh... lover, you should've come over
- 'Cause it's not too late
- Well I feel too young to hold on
- And i'm much too old to break free and run
- Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage i've done
- Sweet lover, you should've come over
- Oh, love well i'm waiting for you
- Lover, you should've come over
- 'Cause it's not too late
- Don't ask me
- What you know is true
- Don't have to tell you
- I love your precious heart
- I
- I was standing
- You were there
- Two worlds collided
- And they could never tear us apart
- We could live
- For a thousand years
- But if I hurt you
- I'd make wine from your tears
- I told you
- That we could fly
- 'Cause we all have wings
- But some of us don't know why
- I
- I was standing
- You were there
- Two worlds collided
- And they could never ever tear us apart
- I can feel your body
- When I'm lying in bed
- There's too much confusion
- Going around through my head
- And it makes me so angry
- To know that the flame still burns
- Why can't I get over?
- When will I ever learn?
- Old love, leave me alone
- Old love, go on home
- I can see your face
- But I know that it's not real
- It's just an illusion
- Caused by how I used to feel
- And it makes me so angry
- To know that the flame will always burn
- I'll never get over
- I know now that I'll never learn
- Old love, leave me alone
- Old love, go on home
