Incomplete

Empty spaces -- Fill me up with holes
Distant faces -- With no place left to go
Without you within me -- I can't find my way
Where I'm going – is anybody's guess

chorus:
I try -- to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake -- but my world is half-asleep
I pray -- for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is --
Incomplete

People tell me –- I should carry on
But I am swimming –- in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby –- it's written on your face
You still wonder –- if we made a big mistake

CHORUS

bridge:
I don't mean to drag it on
I just wanna let you know
I don’t wanna make you face this world alone
I wanna let you know

CHROUS

Incomplete

Just Want You To Know

Lookin' at your picture
From when we first met
You gave me a smile
That I could never forget
And nothing I could do
Could protect me from you that night

Wrapped around your finger
Always on my mind
The days would blend
Cuz we'd stay up all night
You and me were everything
Everything to me

chorus:
I just want you to know
That I've been fighting to let you go
Some days I make it thru
And then there's nights that never end

I wish that I could believe
That there's a day you'll come back to me
But still I have to say
That I would do it all again

Just want you to know

All the doors are closing
I'm trying to move ahead
But deep inside
I wish it was me instead
My dreams are empty from the day
The day you slipped away

CHORUS

bridge:
Just want you to know

That since I lost you
I lost myself
But I can't make it
There's no one else

CHORUS (x2)

Just want you to know

Crawling Back to You

Everybody knows
That I was such a fool
To ever let go of you
Yeah I know I said
We'd were better off alone
It was time that we moved on

I know I broke your heart
I didn't mean to break your heart
But baby here I am --

chorus:
Bangin' on your front door
My pride spilled on the floor
My hands and knees are bruised
And I'm crawling back to you

Beggin' for a second chance
Are you gonna let me in?
I was runnin' from the truth
Now I'm crawling back to you

I know you're in there
And you can make me wait
But I'm not gonna wait
It's the place that I can do
Just to tell you face to face
I was lyin' to myself
Now I'm dyin' in this hell

Girl I know I made you mad
I don't blame you for bein' mad
But baby here I am

CHORUS

bridge:
If you can see these tears I'm crying
Touch these hands that can't stop shaking
Hear my heart that’s barley breathing
You will see a different man

But baby here I am

CHORUS

Now I'm crawling back to you
Crawling back to you
Crawling back to you

Weird World

Weird world
Weird world
Hey, hey, hey

The sun is over the city but it's an orange day
There's reason for lookin' up but I'm feeling down
You see I got to catch a plane, won't buy a ticket
Cuz it's hard to just die when you're standing around

pre-chorus:
Hey, hey, hey
It's a weird world, don't you know it?
It's a weird world, won't slow down
It's a weird world, no matter how you roll it

chorus:
Hey, hey, hey, sweet baby
There's a way to stand up and fight it
Hey, hey, hey
Never give up and don't let it wear out your love

It's a weird world, yeah

Sent a message to a GI in the desert
Said thank you man for bringin' another dawn
Back here it's her and me and we're havin' our first baby
He's out there takin' 'em on

Hey, hey, hey
It's a weird world, and I know you know it
It's a weird world, won't slow down
It's a weird world, no matter how you roll it

CHORUS

bridge:
I'm closin' my eyes but I'm starting to see
While he's lookin' at you, she's lookin' at me
The only thing it does is keep me away
From you

Sure a part of this place would cheer if I died
But don't let them take away your beautiful smile
Take away your beautiful smile
Take away your beautiful smile

Hey, hey, hey, sweet baby
There's a way to stand up and fight it
Hey, hey, hey
There's a way to decide it
Hey, hey, hey
Never give up and don't let it wear out your love

It's a weird world don't you know it
(Hey, hey, hey)
(x3)

Hey, hey, hey

I Still...

Who are you now?
Are you still the same
Or did you change somehow?
What do you do?
At this very moment
When I think of you?

And when I'm looking back
How we were young and stupid
Do you remember that?
No matter how I fight it
Can't deny it
Just can't let you go

chorus:
I still need you
I still care about you
Though everything's been said and done
I still feel you
Like I'm right beside you
But still no word from you

Now look at me
Instead of moving on
I refuse to see
That I keep comin' back
Yeah I'm stuck in a moment
That wasn't meant to last

I've tried to fight it
Can't deny it
You don't even know

CHORUS

bridge:
I wish I could find you
Just like you find me
Then I --
Would never let you go...

Though everything's been said and done
I still feel you
Like I'm right beside you
But still no word from you

Poster Girl

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Julia was a long way from home
She could make alone look pretty
Her attitude made a part of the landscape
Riding her bike through Alphabet City

She liked to party in the backseat
Under the bridge on the Brooklyn side
Smokin' cigarettes in the afterglow
Takin' bets that the sun won't rise

What good is tomorrow without a guarantee?
She can lick her lips and smile
And make you wanna believe

chorus:
That the consequences of your actions
Really are just a game
And you're life is just a chain reaction
Taking you day by day

She says nothing's forever
In this crazy world
Still I'm fallin' in love
With the "right now" poster girl

Right now, right now

Julia liked to shoplift in stores
Ride alongside the rich and famous
Get in elevators, press emergency stop
And make love on the floor til the camera made us

No other woman in the world made me feel
Like my heart's on fire
Where she'd walk I'd follow
When she'd laugh I'd cry

What good is tomorrow without a guarantee?
She had me wrapped around her finger
And I began to believe

CHROUS
(x2)

La la la la
La la la la
La la la, la la
(x2)

Tell me what you want from me
I've got everything you need
It's getting hard for me to breathe
Let me be your guarantee

CHORUS
(x2)

Right now, right now
Poster girl
Poster girl, yeah
Come on, come on, yeah

Lose It All

Take what you need
Cuz I can't hold my breath
Say what you feel
Cuz I got nothing left

Oh, I made a promise
To myself last night
I'm gonna keep it
If its wrong or right

chorus:
And if I lose it all
There'll be nothing left to lose
And I would take the fall
Cuz knowing you are out there breathing

It's so wonderful
It's chance I'd take even if I break it
If I lose it all, if I lose it all
Wouldn't matter anyway

Don't change a thing
You're perfect as you are
Time has a way
Time is all I've got

If my heart should shatter
Watching you
That'd be one less thing
I'd have to prove

CHORUS

bridge:
Heaven will be waiting
When I fall into your open arms
You believe you'll find me there
You'll find me there

CHORUS (x2)

Climbing the Walls

Close your eyes, make a wish
This could last forever
If only you could stay
With me now

So tell me what it is
That keeps us from each other now
It's comin' to get me
You're under my skin

chorus:
No I can't ever let you go
You're a part of me now
Caught by the taste of your kiss
And I don't wanna know
The reason why I
Can't stay forever like this
Now I’m climbing the walls
Cuz I miss you

Take my hand, take my life
Just don't take forever
Let me feel your pain
Kept inside

There's gotta be a way
That you and I, together now
It's comin' to get me
You're under my skin

CHORUS

bridge:
It's an illusion
How can I feel this way
If I can't have you?
It's an illusion
Nothin' is real this way
If I can't have you

[key change]

CHORUS

And I don't wanna know
The reason why I
Can't stay forever like this
Now I’m climbing the walls
Cuz I miss you

My Beautiful Woman

Oh, no no no baby
Oooh
Yeah

How can I begin to
Tell you what you do to
Me every time I hear ya
More willin' I wanna see ya

I know that there's no use in
Tryin' to explain my confusion
But still I'm not complainin'
'Bout my situation

Let's not talk about a possible ending

The very first time that I
Was thinkin' of bein' your fella
I found my inspiration
Hiding in you expression
And so I put myself a word
For your consideration

chorus:
Let's not talk about a possible ending
Let's not think about it every day
And I know I'm still in love with you
And I find it harder and harder to breathe
Every time we're here
My beautiful woman

And so I put the top down
To take you driving downtown
I guess we'll know just what to do
When we're lookin' to fool around
It's too late to stop me
I know we're gonna get down

CHORUS

My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman

bridge:
B is for beautiful as the sunshine
E tells me everything's gonna be alright
A goes to U and me swinging in time
T is to I want you
You've got me acting like a "FUL"

CHORUS (x2)

My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman

You're so beautiful
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman

Safest Place to Hide

Seems like yesterday
When I said "I do"
And after all this time
My heart still burns for you

If you don't know by now
That you're my only one
Take a look inside me,
Watch my heartstrings come undone

I know I promised you forever
Is there no stronger word I can use?
To reassure you when the storm
Is raging outside:
You’re my safest place to hide

Can you see me? Here I am
I need you like I needed you then
When I feel like givin' up
I climb inside your heart and still find
You're my safest place to hide

You see colors no one else can see
In every breath you hear a symphony
You understand me like nobody can
I feel my soul unfoldin', like a flower bloomin'

And when this whole world gets too crazy
And there's nowhere left to run
I know you give me sanctuary
You're the only true the know
You're the road back home

Can you see me? Here I am
Standing here, where I've always been
And when words are not enough
I climb inside your heart and still find
You're my safest place to hide

My safest place to hide

I know I promised you forever
There's no stronger word I can use
To reassure when the storm is raging outside
You're my safest place to hide

Can you see me? Here I am
Standing here, where I've always been
When I feel like givin' up
I climb inside your heart and still find
You're my safest place to hide

You're my safest place to hide

Siberia

"When you come back I won't be here,"
She said and gently pulled me near,
"If you want to talk you can call
And no it's not your fault"

I just smiled and said, "Let go of me
Now there's something I just got to know
Did someone else steal my part?"
She said, "It's not fault"

chorus:
Then my heart did time in Siberia
Was waiting for the lie to come true
Cuz it's all so dark and mysterious
When the one you want doesn't want you too

I was drifting in between
Like I was on the outside looking in
In my dreams you are still here
Like you've always been

CHORUS

bridge:
Gave myself away completely
But you just couldn’t see me
Tho I was sleepin' in your bed
Cuz someone else was on your mind, in your head

When I came back, she wasn't there
Just a note left on the stairs
"If you want to talk, give me a call" –-

CHORUS (x2)

Siberia (repeat and fade)

Never Gone

The things we did,
The things we said
Keep coming back to me
And make me smile again

You showed me how
To face the truth;
Everything that’s good in me
I learned from you

Though the distance that's between us
Now might seem to be too far
It will never separate us
Deep inside I know you are

chorus:
Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
Always close, every day
Every step along the way

Even though for now we've got to say goodbye
I know you will be forever in my life
Never gone

I walk along
These empty streets
There is not a second
You're not here with me

The love you gave
The grace you showed
Will always give me strength
And be my cornerstone

Somehow you found a way
To see the best I have in me
As long as time goes on,
I swear to you that you will be

CHORUS

bridge:
Never gone from me
If there's one thing I believe (I believe)
I will see you somewhere
Down the road (Down the road)

CHORUS (x2)

Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
