I just met this classy girl
She said she wanna take it easy

Three weeks later she be calling me baby
But I gotta ask you

Can you get down
Can you kick it with my homies
Cuz girl when you get to know me
Oh I think that you could so be, so be
You could be my homegirl, ooh
You could be my one and only
Cuz when I get you home girl, I gotta woo
Then I want you to show me
My baby don’t seem to mind
From time to time
She say she wanna take it easy
Yeah she know how to chill
And we keeping it real
Oh when I get you home girl

Cuz I don’t need to ask you

But can you get down
Can you kick it with my homies
Cuz girl when you get to know me

And when its all said and done
Theres no doubt in my mind that you
You could be my homegirl…

Driver

Didn’t take me much to realize
you got it going on
I’m never one to fall but you’ve
got confidence I’m tripping on
So take this ride no matter
where it’s going where you’ve been
My last shot at love
had my poison arrow splintering
From across the room you got your
back turned and my eyes burn
cuz that slow curves got me rising up
You’re like cat nip cuz I'm crazy lit
keep your dress on I'll just slide it up
I’ll slide it up, I’ll slide it up
I got one thing, one thing,
I know that you've been checking out now
You've got something, something,
that doesn't need no spelling out now
We could do that one thing, one thing,
I’ll show you what it’s all about
Cuz by this candlelight,
you got two good sides
Lemme get inside and then I'll figure it out
Cuz I'm a driver, driver,
baby I'm a driver, driver
I ain’t slowing down
Now it’s a road less travelled
all we know is where it starts and ends
Just hold on tight cuz clarity’s
around another bend
So take this ride no matter
where it’s going where I been
My last shot at love
had my poison arrow splintering
From across the room you got your…
I got one thing, one thing…
And I’ll slow you down
Does it fall if I push back
just hard enough to breathe
Is it wrong if at times
I just wanna take a beat
I need space cuz I'm flying high
gotta find my feet
I'm always a driver, I’m always a driver
Well tonight I want the backseat
Does it fall if I push back
just hard enough to breathe
Is it wrong if at times
I just wanna take a beat
I need space cuz I'm flying high
gotta find my feet
I'm always a driver, I’m always a driver

Fight About Nothing
03:01

Why you wanna fight about nothing
Why you wanna see me so low
Why you gotta step on my vibe,
on my vibe woman
Why you wanna hurt me so
You and me we got this lil‘ somethin’
Now you say it's nothin’ at all
Run me around,
throw my heart on the ground
Why you wanna see me go
Is it cause I ain't got no money
Or is it because I haven't had the time
I gave you all the love in my heart,
in my heart
Now you say my love ain't worth a dime
Now the last time you broke my heart
Three hours later hear your
tears on the phone
Now I’ve been home for a week
and you want me on the street
Why you wanna see me go
Is it cause I ain’t got no money…
Now I know a good woman
Should keep you on your toes
But another broken heart
just might tear us apart
Why you wanna hurt me so
Is it cause I ain’t got no money…

Acrylic Heart
04:46
|

|
Oh the air was thin and she looked so small
Though the night was cold
his breath was gone
Acrylic heart upon her sleeve
That she painted on deceptively
Though he caught the urge to be hypnotized
He stared too long at those burning eyes
She held him tight and she fantasized
How she’d steal his heart
and he’d give no fight
Oh, when it all falls down
Who’s gonna be there, to pick up the pieces
that we left on the ground
We can’t stay the same,
can’t see through the rain
I’m waiting for the lightning,
and begging for change
Oh the sky was dull and he stood so tall
And he glared at her as the rain did fall
And his chest did bleed
where his heart had been
Cause some other love had ripped it free
So he hid his wounds from her too see
Then ripped hers out so heartlessly
Oh, when it all falls down…

Meant to Dance
04:20
|

|
It’s looking like the times are changing
And I can feel my bones are shaking
I’m sick of all the standing bump and grind
Another beat aint gonna break me
Cuz babe that body’s radio friendly
And I aint trying to doubt what feels so right
And I don’t know if you’ve been looking
tonight, If you been looking tonight
But I been looking your way so
Forget about the world it troubles your mind,
the way these bodies collide,
all I know is we were meant to...
Forget about the world it troubles your mind
The way these bodies collide
All I know is we were meant to dance
Yeah we were meant to dance
Baby we were meant dance
All I know is we were meant to dance
Yeah we were meant to dance
Oh darling we were meant to dance
All I know is we were meant to
Come on and show me what you can do
Don’t give me that bump and grind
Hit me with that deep groove
I’ve even waiting my whole life
Forget about the world it troubles your mind
The way these bodies collide
All I know is we were meant to dance…

The Needle
03:31
|

|
Oh lady, I was feeling lazy
So tired of the blues, oh the things that I do
When I was impatient, trying to find love
I sank to low places,
and I lay with strange faces
I was complacent, trying to figure it out
I fell from my graces, and drank by the cases
You are the needle, just what I needed
To sew me up, when I was bleeding
You are the needle, just what I needed
To sew me up, when I was bleeding
Due to my drinking, my blood it ran quick
And I tried to find something,
that would give me a fix
Amusing relations, but nothing of substance
I was searching for something,
and you were that one thing
That one thing, oh
You are the needle…
When I was bleeding out, and you saved me
You patched me up
and made me whole again
Oh and I’m crazy
Don’t you know it lady
I’m mad over you
And the things that you do
You are the needle…

Not Another Love Song
04:53
|
|||
|
It still gets me, like a bad dream
Can I love you and resent you completely
Like a cold stain, on my memory
I never ever should have let you
get ahead of me
I can’t help it, I can’t win this
Discontentment with every one I been with
Is she heartsick, nihilistic
Though I’m twisted, to be realistic
I can't help it, I cant win
I can’t help but be the man I always been
All the pain trapped, such a shame that
You’re the only one who
wanted me to tame that
Another greyhound, to this old town
And I’ll drown please just
spit me on the cold ground
Cuz I’m chewed up, almost used up
And we don’t need another bloody love song
I can’t help it, I cant win
No this is not another love song
Cuz I’m chewed up, stretched out thin
No this is not another love song
I can’t help it, I cant win
No I won’t sing, not another love song
Cuz I’m chewed up, stretched out thin
Now as I saunter, I still wonder
Were you just down,
and so tried to pull me under
A lack of patience, infatuation
When it was your elation
at someone else’s expense
No more guessing, well there’s a blessing
And no confessing, or attempts at impressing
Cuz I’m chewed up, but I’m not used up
And we don’t need another fucking love song
I can’t help it, I cant win…

Let You Down
03:04
|
|||
|
I can't stand this sitting idle
While the world it slips me by
I think it's time I skip the city
I haven't seen the starlight in a while
I can't wait around for nothing
I gotta go and find my mind
If the cost of living is our love dear
Then I hope I find you in another life
But don't lean on me, I'll only let you down
I can't be the lover, that you need me to be
You're so dismissive when I tell you
You nearly let me go alone
But you might need it more than I do, dear
So you pack it up too and you come along
And then you told me
Oh ya you layed it out
You took ahold of me
And then you layed it down
You said lean on me
And I won't let you down
Oh I'll be the lover
That you need me to be
You said lean on me...
Said I'll be the lover, that you need me to be

New Soul
07:24

|
Please, please take everything
Please take it all, although I don’t have much
Oh you give, give, give, give and you,
you give baby
And I, I want to give it right back to you
You don’t even know
How lonely the world would be without you
So won’t you let me, let me show you baby
And let me give you, all of my love
Cuz baby I’m yours, yes I’m yours
And when the sun don’t shine anymore, baby
I’ll still be here
So please take everything
That I have to give, oh
What is a life to live without you
Oh you, you continue to surprise me
Every corner, every turn
Every raindrop just won’t add up to the,
to the tears I’ll cry baby
If you ain’t by my side, oh
What could life be worth
If I ain’t yours…
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
It don’t mean nothing if I don’t have you
And I need to know girl
I don’t belong to anyone else
Oh baby I’m yours
And I’ll give to you
So much more than simple songs, simple words
All my love just cannot be sung in a melody
So please take everything that I’m worth,
that I’m worth
Cuz baby I’m yours…
