This Is Not A Love SongÝ
the time is 2:22 and i hope your wish comes true
but you say i'll know before you do and i hope you're right why can we
talk this way we always speak when you're so far away and i'm sitting right
here it's 10:00 your time and it's 1 by mine and i often wonder why you
even care do you ever wonder why we met here the time is 2:22 and i hope
my wish comes true and i think i'll know just when you do i hope i do maybe
this is just what i need maybe i'm wrong.Ý
Duane JosephÝÝÝ
tell your mom you need a day off so we can play
out in the rain we'll catch a ride to the mall, go down to the arcade cause
that's where all the cool kids hang tell your mom you need a day off cause
i don't feel like school today we'll ride our boards down the hill and
to the playground where everything's ok tell your mom that you'll be home
late cause building cabins in the woods is hard work you always know that
i'll be here cause summer time is coming near my closest friend you'll
always be you are a hometown kid like me tell your mom to make us lunch
now cause we worked up an appetite g.i. joes and karate matches in the
backyard where everything's all right now i can see that things have changed
we've gone our separate ways now and it's not you and me anymore, it's
not you and me why can't it be the way it was when pain was only plastic
guns my closest friend i couldn't say you are a million miles away i guess
i'll hold my breath there is no harm in hoping for change.
August In BethanyÝÝÝ
with the sounds of the ocean crashing 7:30 friday
evening everything comes tumbling down i choke back each tear that bleeds
i'd rather rest forever in your arms i'd rather stay here than go but i
know that i should leave as i sit here helpless don't go you said you wouldn't
you said you couldn't i think of our time together is it fading am i dreaming
everything you said lives on i cherish our memories i want to kiss your
tears away tonight it's hard to give up the one you never thought you'd
leave don't go your eyes see through my soul don't go you say as i walk
out the door.
Music Box SuperheroÝÝÝÝ
you'd like to think i have it easy at times i think
you're right but then i take a look around and see your eyes on me at times
i think i have it easy until i close my eyes and see this life in my box
lets you turn the key when you want to hear a melody but i can never be
the apple of your eye the story of your life it's what's insideÝ i go through
stages when i feel this matters this song and dance is a way of life for
meÝ you'd like to think i have it easy at times i think your right but
then i take a look around and see the grass is always greener on the other
side and i can never be the one who saves the day i'm just the man in the
music boxÝ it's nothing special i'm just the man in the music box (your
music box superhero)Ý i will never be your superhero.Ý
Seven Forty SevenÝÝÝÝ
autumn came and left the summer sun behind us with
our thoughts when it stops raining i think i'll take a walk to your house
and if we ever get the chance to set a date i think i'll take you on the
next plane won't you come and take a holiday with me i've asked you twice
before will this be the time you finally say yes to me i've asked you times
before this is the last i've asked you times before won't you come and
take a holiday with me please say yes won't you come with me there's things
to see won't you come and take a holiday with me i can take you i can't
make you.Ý
The Closest ThingÝÝ
you're the words that come out easy and i am speechless
at best your star it seems to shine above the rest you're the face before
the cameras the smile i'd like to earn the closest thing to perfect in
a hollywood to burn your the beauty that is deeper than than eyes can merely
see the closest thing to perfect but the farthest thing from me and i'd
love to be the shoulder that you cry on and i'd love to be the friend you
call when things are great you're the dream that hasn't ended and i'm still
anxious for rest your words they seem to hang above my head you're the
bud before the flower unfurls into full bloom captivating beauty but it
may be all too soon you're the song that writes a story but leaves a lot
to read the closest thing to perfect but the farthest thing from me and
like i really deserve a chance to sit across a table and tell you that
i think you're wonderful and i think you're something special i guess this
is my only chance to say i wish i knew you because i'm sure you're wonderful
if i'd get to know you.
Show Me The MoneyÝÝÝ
i thought about what you said it's not your money
that i really want and i don't care.
For EvangelineÝÝÝ
in one night you made me your own the deepest embrace's
creation i layed there for days and you forgot in one night you made me
your own in one hour you gave me away to the angels you sent me up to the
sky now their wings fan the heat from the face you'll never see the hair
you'll never smell the little hands you'll never hold now i am but a silhouette
down there a silhouette of a memory of a solitary night nothing more.
P.S. We'll Call You When We Get ThereÝÝ
looking back alot has changed we never thought
there'd come a day when everything we used to live for everything we did
and everything we say could fade away now we're left holding onto dreams
small town kids we're gonna get there now it's time i see those city lights
i think it's tim to go and we'll come back home when we hit the big time
and we'll come back someday.
ConstellationÝÝÝ
some things can never be explained why every sky
still looks the same and i wonder how my world would look without you some
things can never be explained like how our scars remain the same and i
wonder how the sky would look without my star sleep seems a dream away
and a year too late words that can't be spoken stream off my face i wan't
to be selfish you are my everything some things can never be explained
why does your love remain unchanged cause i know it wouldn't be the same
without you sleep seems a dream away and a year too late words that can't
be spoken stream off your face please don't forget my name and take me
with you when you leave i've got a lot to lose i've got to let it go please
don't forget my name.
