I wanna know you better

I wanna be what's on your mind
Look in my eyes, they're calling

2. Unbelievable LYRICS

Hey, ahh
Ahh, yea yeah

Had your name all tattooed on my heart
It's gone, how could this be wrong
It's unbelievable, unbelievable
Just the picture of me
Left out in this Hollywood babylon
Was unbelievable, unbelievable

So let my greatest fear walk out the door, ahh
This ain't what we're fighting for, ahh

You don't say that it's over, over
Never thought this could die
But you speak without words
Making me feel so damn good, 'bye
It's unbelievable

Girl, I picture how the ghost of you
Would follow me everywhere
It's undeniable, unbelievable
If I couldn't feel your velvet lips
Your fingers run through my hair
It's inconceivable, unbelievable

So let my greatest fear walk out the door, ahh
This ain't what we're fighting for

You don't say that it's over, over
Ahh, never thought this could die
But you speak without words
Speak without words
Making me feel so damn good, 'bye

Did you really think about it
What we could be missing
I found it so hard to believe, yeah
Unbelievable, it's unbelievable, yeah

You don't say that it's over, over
Ahh, never thought this could die
But you speak without words
Speak without words
Making me feel so damn good, 'bye

3. You’re So Beautiful LYRICS

You say all I do is think about you
That's right, you're the only thing that's on my mind
Your light, won't you let it shine on me, yeah
All night, hold me tight and don't let go
'Cause I can't help myself, you know

It's okay, all right, all good, all right
I know what I got, I know that it's hot
And you're what I want
You're so beautiful
It's okay, all right, all good, all right
One thing on my mind
I'm so in love and so alive
You're so beautiful
Yeah, an angel from the sky
The sparkle in my eye
I can't believe you're mine
Na na na na naaah, na na na naaaah

Sometimes, I slip and slide through my emotions
So high, take me up and spin me 'round
'Cause I don't wanna come back down

It's okay, all right, all good, all right
I know what I got, I know that it's hot
And you're what I want
You're so beautiful
It's okay, all right, all good, all right
One thing on my mind
I'm so in love and so alive
You're so beautiful
Yeah, an angel from the sky
The sparkle in my eye
I can't believe you're mine
Na na na na naaah, na na na naaaah

It's okay, it's all right
You're so beautiful, so beautiful

I can't believe you're mine
An angel from the sky
The sparkle in my eye
Just barely in time
Na na na na naaah, na na na naaaah

It's okay, all right, all good, all right
I know what I got, I know that it's hot
And you're what I want
You're so beautiful
It's okay, all right, all good, all right
One thing on my mind
I'm so in love and so alive
You're so beautiful
It's okay, all right, all good, all right
You're under my skin
My head's in a spin
Again and again
You're so beautiful
It's okay, all right, all good, all right
I look in your eyes
I'm so in love and so alive
You're so beautiful
It's okay, it's all right, it's all good, it's all right
You're so beautiful
It's okay, it's all right, it's all good, it's all right
You're so beautiful

4. Everyday LYRICS

I gave in when you gave out
You showed me the way to love, there ain't no doubt
Always together and never apart
Disappeared, didn't say a word
I slept right through, guess I never heard
Now I'm awake but I wish I was dreamin'

Everyday, without you in my heart
Everyday, I'm falling apart
And I know you know I think about you everyday

I woke up and you were gone
Just one night without you, it's too long
Sleepin' with the ghost of you
Dyin' with or without you
Don't wanna feel this way tomorrow

Everyday, without you in my heart
Everyday, I'm falling apart
And I know you know I think about you everyday

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Everyday, everyday, without you in my heart
Everyday, I'm falling apart
And I know you know I think about you
Everyday, till I see you again
Everyday, I'll try to pretend
But I know you know I think about you
Everyday, out of my head, I've been dazed and confused
Everyday, I'm lost but it's you that I don't want to lose
Everyday, we're torn to giving ourselves to each other

5. Long, Long Way To Go LYRICS

You held my hand and then you slipped away
And I may never see your face again
So tell me how do to fill the emptiness inside
Without love, what is life?

And anyone who knew us both can see
We always were the better part of me
I never wanted to be this free
All this pain, does it go away?

Then every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found
I know I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way I know
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
To you, to you

From memory, there is no hiding place
Turn on the TV and I see you there
In every crowd there's always someone with your face
Everywhere, trying not to care

Then every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found
I know I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way I know
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew

To you, I wish you everythin'
And all the best that life can bring
I only hope you think of me sometimes, oh
And even though I feel the pain
I know that I will love again
The time will come, oh, and I'll move on

I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go, got a long way I know
Before I can say goodbye, before I say goodbye
To all I ever knew, to all I ever knew
I got a long, I got a long, long way to go, long way to go
Before I can say, before I say, goodbye to you
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Oh, I got a long, long way I know
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
Girl, I wish you the best I know, oh and all of the rest, to you
I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you

6. Four Letter Word LYRICS

Ain't just your kiss, K I S S that I miss
Ain't just the way that you squeeze me tight
If there's a wish at the top of my list
Uh, is that you be there every day and every night

I found a new four letter word
The sweetest sound that I ever heard
I found a new four letter word
Lust can kinda be nice
But it ain't L O V E, indeedy
All right

Oh when the rush that I'm dreamin' of's not enough
You touch and I can't control myself
You put the glide back into my stride
Oh yeah, you move me like-a nobody else

I found a new four letter word
The sweetest sound that I ever heard
I found a new four letter word
Lust can kinda be nice
But it ain't L O V E, oh yeah
Let me spell it out, c'mon

You're all I'm looking for
You ain't the girl next door
You're really so much more
You put me to shame
And then you walk right in
You know I can't explain
You do that lovin' thing
All over again

Live life just like a wild ride
More like a landslide
Take me away

New four letter word
The sweetest sound that I ever heard
I found a new four letter word
The sweetest sound that I ever heard
New four letter word
And baby, the sweetest sound that I ever heard
New four letter word
Hey, lust can kinda be nice
But it ain't L O V E

7. Torn To Shreds LYRICS

I don't wanna fall in love
But it's been taken outta my hands
And right now I realize
I don't wanna say goodbye

I miss you more than words can say
They never turn out right, but here goes anyway

Everyday I miss your touch
Never thought it would mean so much
All the words I could've said got me reeling torn to shreds
Every road I go is nowhere
But I know you're out there somewhere
These voices in my head got me feeling torn to shreds

I can't help the way I feel
That something's got a hold of my heart
It hurts but I can't let go
Yeah, I just wanna let you know

I need you more than words can say
They never turn out right, but here goes anyway

Everyday I miss your touch
Never thought it would mean so much
All the words I could've said got me reeling torn to shreds
Every road I go is nowhere
But I know you're out there somewhere
These voices in my head got me feeling torn to shreds

If I ever get myself together
And it takes whatever it takes
To get myself back to you

Everyday I miss your touch
Never thought it would mean so much
All the words I could've said got me reeling torn to shreds
Every road I go is nowhere
But I know you're out there somewhere
These voices in my head got me feeling torn to shreds

8. Love Don’t Lie LYRICS

Yeah, whoa

Time, just watching the time slipping away
Gimme a sign, where do you go when you can't find the way
So we watch and we wait and we crawl and we kneel
If you know who you are then you know how to feel
In time, maybe temptation is all that you need

Love don't lie, it lifts you up
Takes you higher when high ain't enough
Love don't lie, it's stronger than steel
It's got the heart and emotion to heal
It's not as easy as it seems
When you can't even speak in your dreams
Love don't lie and that's the truth
Look me straight in the eye for the proof
That love don't lie
Yeah, love don't lie

Out in the cold, with a love that burns like the sun
You've stolen my soul, so justice would seem to be done
So we hope and we pray and we live and we learn
If we know where we are then we know where to turn
In time, maybe persuasion is all that you need

Love don't lie, it lifts you up
Takes you higher when high ain't enough
Love don't lie, it's stronger than steel
It's got the heart and emotion to heal
It's not as easy as it seems
When you can't even speak in your dreams
Love don't lie and that's the truth
Look me straight in the eye for the proof
That love don't lie

Love don't lie, it lifts you up
Takes you higher when high ain't enough
Love don't lie, it's stronger than steel
It's got the heart and emotion to heal
Love don't lie, it lifts you up
Takes you higher when high ain't enough
Love don't lie and that's the truth
Look me straight in the eye, straight in the eye for the proof
Love don't lie
Yeah, love don't lie
Oh, oh, love don't lie
Yeah, love don't lie

9. Gravity LYRICS

Can't sleep at night
The darkness enslaves me
I turn out the light
And no one can save me

So try not to stare 'cause I'm stripped to the bone
It's a trick of the light and I'm lost

Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
Insanity inside of me
It's like I'm wide awake
Feel like I'm falling
Can't recognize
I'm hypnotized
These feelings got me plagued
Can't take it all
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling down

I lie to myself
It don't make it easy, easy
If somebody else
Would only believe me

My sweat soaks the sheets and I'm hung out to dry
It's a trick of the light and I'm lost

Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling down
Feel like I'm falling

Wake up

Falling
Don't try to catch me, just let me fall
Eyes wide shut, don't make a sound
Keep falling till I hit the ground

Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
Insanity inside of me
It's like I'm wide awake
Feel like I'm falling
Can't recognize
I'm hypnotized
These feelings got me plagued
Can't take it all
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling
Feel like I'm falling
Gravity is dragging me
My head's about to break
Can't break my fall
Insanity inside me
It's like I'm wide awake
Feel like I'm falling
Can't recognize
I'm hypnotized
These feelings got me plagued
Can't take it all
This gravity is killing me
I can't stand up from falling down

10. Cry LYRICS

Here comes the flood
Can you feel the love
Washing over you
Like a tidal wave inside of you

Here comes the night
Can you see the light
Shining like the sun
You wanna hide but it's got you on the run

Every word you say
Is taking your breath away

Cry, the demons that you hide
Screaming through the night
They won't forget you
Coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down
Need, the circus you gotta feed
The wound that never heals
It don't let go
Coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down

She's here again
Your only friend
Watching over you
She never takes her eyes away from you

She's wide awake
As she lies in wait
Your chosen bride
A mother, a lover, a kick inside

Every single day
Is taken your breath away

Cry, the demons that you hide
Screaming through the night
They won't forget you
Coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down
Need, the circus you gotta feed
The wound that never heals
It don't let go
Coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down

It's been so long, since I've come undone
Slippin' in to my second skin, to my second skin

Cry, the demons the hide
Screaming through the night
No, they won't forget you
Coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down
Need, the circus you gotta feed
The wound that never heals
It don't let go
Coming down, coming down, coming down, coming down

11. Girl Like You LYRICS

Boy meets girl in prime of life
Blinded by big city lights
I'm on fire and you're the flame
You inspire the road I take
You take me to a better place
You're the sun and I'm the rain

You're all that I need
To make me believe
I'm over the edge
But I'm not afraid
'Cause I know it's true

With a girl like you, like you
To be by my side, like you
With a girl like you, like you, like you
Love me for the inside, ahh, like you
With a girl like you, like you
I set the scene to follow, like you
With a girl like you, like you, like you
Love for all tomorrow, ohh, like you
With a girl like you

You were raised to be so good
I grew up misunderstood
We were distant worlds apart
Feels so right, it's meant to be
Shooting stars and chemistry
They unite a beating heart

You're pulling me up
I can't get enough
Coming off strong
But I'm not that tough
Well I know it's true

With a girl like you, like you
To be by my side, like you
With a girl like you, like you, like you
Love me for the inside, ahh, like you
With a girl like you, like you
I set the scene to follow, like you
With a girl like you, like you, like you
Love for all tomorrow, ohh, like you
With a girl like you, you

With a girl like you, like you, like you
To be by my side, like you
With a girl like you, like you
Love me for the inside, ahh, like you
With a girl like you, like you, like you
I set the scene to follow, like you
With a girl like you, like you, like you
Love for all tomorrow, ohh, like you
With a girl like you

12. Let Me Be The One LYRICS

Something in the way you move
Lets me get too close to you
I tremble when I look at your face
And I want all the world to see
Tonight the world belongs to me
Touch me with your animal grace

Put your hand on my heart
And the feel the need in me

Let me be the one
Lead me into temptation
And show me the right side of wrong
Let me be the one
Take me in from the cold
Gimme something to hold
Let me be the one
Let me be the one

Burning in the afterglow
Catch the wind and let it go
Washed away like words in the sand
A passion that's so physical, electric and untouchable
Don't wanna let it slip through my hands

Put your hand on my heart
And the feel the need in me

Let me be the one
Lead me into temptation
And show me the right side of wrong
Let me be the one
Take me in from the cold
Gimme something to hold

Don't let this dream pass by
Just spread your wings and fly
Reach out and touch
Let your heart just bring me in
I'll be your oxygen

Put your hand on my heart
And the feel the need in me

Let me be the one
Lead me into temptation
And show me the right side of wrong
Let me be the one
Take me in from the cold
Gimme something to hold
Let me be the one
Let me be the one
Ohoh, let me be the one
Let me be the one

13. Scar LYRICS

Ooohhhahhhhh

How can I know
How can I see it through your eyes
Now you know
All those promises were lies

You close your eyes
You close your mind
To all you lost
I count the days
I count the ways
I count the cost

All that you are, no conscience
All you believe, no pride
All that you take, no reason
All that you leave, no right
All that you lose, no sorrow
All that you find, no shame
Can't take away the scar you left behind

How do you cry
When you've run right of tears
You justify
But the pain won't disappear

I count the days
I count the ways
I count the cost

All that you are, no conscience
All you believe, no pride
All that you take, no reason
All that you leave, no right
All that you lose, no sorrow
All that you find, no shame
Can't take away the scar you left

You close your eyes
You close your mind
To all you lost
I count the days
I count the ways
I count the cost

All that you are, no conscience
All you believe, no pride
All that you take, no reason
All that you leave, no right
All that you lose, no sorrow
All that you find, no shame
Can't take away the scar you left behind

Ooohhh ahhhhh

14. Kiss the Day LYRICS

These are the days we throw away
The words we never say
That I'm so fragile and so wrong
And we're still knockin' on the door
Of a world that's gone before
Until the real thing comes along

Kiss the day on it's way
And the sun will never shine
In your eyes like the skies
And the darkness will arise

Kiss the day and await
It holds you in it's arms
And the light will never fade
Kiss the day

And now I've seen enough to know
Though the truth can leave you cold
It can always lead you home
Back to the place where we belong
To the time when we were strong
When we could blow away the storm

Kiss the day on it's way
And the sun will never shine
In your eyes like the skies
And the darkness will arise

Kiss the day and await
It holds you in it's arms
And the light will never fade
Kiss the day, kiss the day

These are the days we throw away
The words we never say
Till the real thing comes along

Kiss the day on it's way
And the sun will never shine
In your eyes like the skies
And the darkness will arise

Kiss the day and await
It holds you in it's arms
And the light will never fade
Kiss the day
