Eyes

And I
Have never seen eyes
Quite like yours before
And I
Have never seen a smile
Quite like yours
Full of wonder
Full of life
You're an angel
In disguise
I wish I could see behind those eyes
Find out where the future lies
Guess I'll just wait for time
To reveal what will be mine
And I
Wish that my eyes
Were quite a bit like yours
And I
Wish that my smile
Was quite a bit more
Full of wonder
Full of Life
To give an answer
To your why's
I just want to be that guy
The one where you don't have to wonder why
Why am I doing this
Is there more to life than this
Why don't you talk to me anymore?
Why don't you say those things that you said before?
Have I ever asked you to be more than just honest?
Have I ever told you that I think you're the one?
No I'll never ask you to be more than just honest
I really do hope that you are the one

The Thief
03:56

As I look back into the past I can recall
There was a point in time when I thought I had it all
And if my memory, serves me right
When I held you that first night, you told me
Nothing ever felt so right
Please don't let me fall
To the place I was before
To the place I was before
Don't make me wait anymore
And so we fell in love deeper by the day
When you pushed I pulled
To keep you close to me
But somewhere along that line
It became a tug of war
You started sailing away on a ship
While I sat here on the shore
But I would like to think
That you took something from me
And made yourself even more than before
You met me
Cuz I know that I have
Learned so much from you
You opened up my mind
And my heart grew
Bigger than it ever was
Bigger than before
I don't know how I could
Love someone more
Than you
It's so bittersweet, every time we meet
How I wish that we could be
It's so bittersweet, every time we speak
Part of you I'll never see
Well I have had it up to here
So I will make this brief
My heart was stolen and
You are the thief

EverHoping
04:19

Why do I keep hoping?
When I should be coping
And accepting the fact
That I'll never have that
The way I think that it should be
Need to set myself free
From these chains that have me bound
To you and to the ground
Cuz it just about kills me every time that I see you with him
But aside from this song I will never ever say a single thing
Cuz if you're happy then I will be happy but only for you
But if you're not then it kills me even more cuz there?s nothing I can do
When you're out of sight
I go out of my mind
And I lose it even more
Knowing you're not mine
But I keep it all inside
For your sake and my pride
How much can this man take
I think I'm bout to break down
All that I ask is for another chance to be with you
I swear this time it will be the right thing for you to do
Cuz I need you now more than I ever ever did before
I didn't know that I couldn't live without you but now I'm sure
I will say all the things you've been dying to hear
I'll make sure to say it loud make sure that it's clear
I'll mean every single word as I dispose all of your fears
Cuz I would love you till the end until it brings us to tears

All to Myself
03:49
|

I wanna take all of your heartache and turn it into bliss
You tell me that's unnecessary, but I insist
You can be sure when you're away that you will be missed
How can I think of anyone else when I know that you exist
Is it too much to ask to have you all to myself
I'd have no need for money babe cuz you'd be my wealth
I'd have no need for clocks you'd take up all of my time
There'd be no need for reason girl cuz you'd be my rhyme
Let's let time tell this tale of what you and I will be
But the truth is only what you choose to believe
Faith is all I have and truth is all I speak
So believe me when I tell you that I am all you'll ever need
I make the complicated simple and I'll make your life complete
I will blur the line between your dreams and your reality
Take everything that you want and turn in into actuality
Not talkin' about the tangible I'm talkin' sensuality

The News
03:39
|

Well I used to think that you, were the girl
The one that I was waiting for
Someone who could, guarantee
They would always be, there for me
So I dug down deep and removed my heart
And I gave it all to you right from the start
But something happened that I didn't expect
I gave my heart away and didn't get one back
And for awhile you sure had me fooled
Believed all the things that you said you'd do
But one thing I didn't realize
Without this heart of mine, I would die
So I took a step back and thought to myself
All this ain't no good for my health
Cuz life's not about bitchin' and cryin'
We should be havin, a good time
So from this day forward took control of my life
I'll make it what I want won't fill it with strife
Cuz there's a lot of things that I haven't seen
And just as many places that I haven't been
Nobody can tell you what to do
Life's all about makin' the rules
And if anyone cares to disagree
Then I don't need them anyway, let me be
So the point that I'd like to get across
Just because you lose doesn't mean you lost
And never rule out, anything
You never know what the future will bring

An Ode To
03:01
|
|||
Baby, please come back to me
You've left me wanting so much more
Darling don't you leave me here alone
You are a song I've never written before
I'm the man in your future
So get out of the past
And I'm willing and ready to do anything
To make this feeling last
You do something to me
that these words cannot explain
But these words are all I have
Until you come back to me
Baby, please come back to me
Cuz I don't think I can stay away
Darling, you are all that I need
I think about you every second of each day
Straight like an arrow
From cupid to your heart
I knew exactly they way that I felt
Right from the start
You move me, you soothe me
You know just what to say
When I touch you, when I taste you,
There's no way this can be fake
You're my ray of sunshine when the skies are gray
You're a candle in the darkness such a radiant display
Your affection is perfection, infectious and pleasing
You don't have to worry no, cuz I am never leaving
Baby, please come back to me
So I can hold you in my arms once more
Darling I can't keep myself away
How did I live without you before?

Change Your Mind
03:42
|
|||
There may be nothing I can say to change your mind
But I'll try, dear god I will try
And I can think of plenty reasons I should say goodbye
But they'd be lies, Oh lord they'd all be lies
You've been nothing but wonderful
No less than great
Always remember that, no don't you forget that it's
never too late
So I'm leaving up my windows and I'm unlocking my doors
In hopes that you will let yourself inside once more
To give it one more chance you won't even have to try
Don't let nothing hold you back and neither will I
Cuz I still love you after all of this time
But I don't need to tell you cuz we share the same mind
I will
Change your mind
Give it one last chance baby don't let it die
I know that we can do it there's no doubt in my mind
Cuz I still love you I don't know what else to say
I thank God every night he put you in my life that day
I will change your mind
For the last time
