MUMBLE
I WISH I HAD SOMEONE JUST LIKE YOU
SOMEONE THAT IS JUST TOO DAMN GOOD TO - BE TRUE
INSTEAD I HAVE SOMEONE JUST LIKE ME
ONE LOOK IN THE MIRROR I'M SO EASY TO - SEE THROUGH
WALKING DOWN THE STREET PEOPLE PASSING BY
NO ONE HEAR ME SCREAMING INSIDE BUT - I DO
THE SIGHT OF YOU JUST LEAVES ME WEAK
I WISH I HAD THE NERVE AND WORDS TO SPEAK - TO YOU
INSTEAD WHEN I SEE YOU I ONLY MUMBLE
AND WHEN I WALK UP TO YOU YOU SEE ME STUMBLE
NOW WHAT'S A BOY TO DO? WHAT'S A BOY TO DO?
SOLO
INSTEAD WHEN I SEE YOU I ONLY MUMBLE
AND WHEN I WALK UP TO YOU YOU SEE ME STUMBLE
NOW WHAT'S A BOY TO DO? WHAT'S A BOY TO DO?
I WISH I HAD SOMEONE JUST LIKE YOU
SOMEONE THAT IS JUST TOO DAMN GOOD TO - BE TRUE
INSTEAD I HAVE SOMEONE JUST LIKE ME
ONE LOOK IN THE MIRROR I'M SO EASY TO - SEE THROUGH
I DO, BE TRUE, TO YOU

WITHER UP AND DIE
I thought you loved me girl but now I know
I only was a stepping stone to you
I never got so close to anyone
But then you walked away without a clue
Standing here like a fool I know what I need to
I spill the beans and give 'em all to you
Now I got something to remember you by
What will you do when your well runs dry
You, all along you knew you'll say goodbye
Like all good things you wither up and die
You thought it was a game the living end
And nothing short of my best would do
But girl I tell you know when all comes down
You'll pay the price when the bills comes due
Now I got something to remember you by
What will you do when your well runs dry
You, all along you knew you'll say goodbye
Like all good things you wither up and die
And now without your love I finally see
The horrid things you've come to be
The better part of me says leave it be
Without your love you know I'm finally free
Standing here like a fool I know what I need to
I spill the beans and give 'em all to you
Now I got something to remember you by
What will you do when your well runs dry
You, all along you knew you'll say goodbye
Like all good things you wither up and die

TRANSITION LOVE
I KNOW YOU WANT ME TO SET YOU FREE
I KNOW YOU WANT HIM MORE THAN YOU WANT ME
I KNOW YOU NEED HIM AS PUSH COMES TO SHOVE
BUT YOU JUST USE HIM AS YOUR TRANSITION LOVE
IT’S BEEN GOING ON TOO LONG
WE’RE HEADING FOR A BREAKDOWN
YOU BEATING AROUND THE BUSH
NOW YOU GIVING ME THE SHAKEDOWN
IN A HOUSE FULL OF PAIN
THERE’S NOTHING LEFT TO EXPLAIN
YOU CAN LEAVE IT BEHIND
BUT IT MAKES YOU BLIND
IT’S LEADING YOU ASTRAY
I KNOW YOU WANT ME ALL OUT AND LEAVE
I KNOW YOU WANT HIM JUST TO DECEIVE
I KNOW YOU NEED HIM IN SEARCHING OF
BUT YOU JUST USE HIM AS YOUR TRANSITION LOVE

NR 1 IN MY HEART
I MEET GIRLS EVERYDAY OF THE WEEK
SHORT, LONG, WIDE TONGUE IN THEIR CHEEKS
BUT YOU SEE IT DOESN'T MATTER MUCH
'CAUSE NONE OF THEM HAVE YOUR MAGIC TOUCH
‘CAUSE YOUR NR 1 IN MY HEART
AND YOU KNOW YOU GOT THIS OLD HEART
BEATING WAY TOO FAST WAY TOO FAST
FOR MEEEE
I COULD BE STRANDED ON THE MOON
OR THE LOONY-BIN SINGING OUT OF TUNE
BUT YOU SEE IT DOESN'T MATTER MUCH
‘CAUSE THE WARDEN HERE DON’T THINK TOO MUCH
‘CAUSE YOUR NR 1 IN MY HEART
AND YOU KNOW YOU GOT THIS OLD HEART
BEATING WAY TOO FAST WAY TOO FAST
FOR MEEEE
TELLING YOU NOW, I’M-A TELLING YOU NOW

IF NOT FOR YOU
If not for you, I wouldn’t know
What’s false or true, and learn to let go
And if it wasn’t for you, I would never seen
How the truth cuts deep, but oh so clean
As I saw you standing there, with him by your side
...if it wasn't for you
...if it wasn't for you
If not for you, I would never feel
Like crying on cue, It’s so surreal
And If it wasn’t for you, you know I’d be adrift
So here's what I will do, here's my parting gift
And as I saw you standing there, the heavens cried
...if it wasn't for you
...if it wasn't for you
If not for you, I would still believe
That this web of blue, Is mine to weave
And as I saw you standing there, the heavens cried
...if it wasn't for you
...if it wasn't for you

DREAMS
I THINK OF YOU, AND WHAT YOU SAID
THERE'S TOO MUCH ROOM INSIDE MY HEAD
I NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN
I THINK OF YOU, I'M FILLED WITH DREAMS
I WISH I HEARD WHAT YOU SAID
THERE'S TOO MUCH ROOM NOW IN MY BED
I WISH I STAYED BEHIND THE SCENES
I THINK OF YOU, I'M FILLED WITH DREAMS...
OF THAT YOU ARE HERE
THAT YOU ARE HERE TONIGHT
AND I KNOW THESE DREAMS WILL COME TRUE
IF I ONLY COULD EXPLAIN TO YOU THAT
I’M SORRY AND I WILL MAKE IT ALRIGHT
ALL NIGHT LONG
