1.-In My Pocket

Among the many muted faces
You try to find me in the spaces
You're drawn to my song (oh)
You only move to keep from sinking
You close your eyes as if you're thinking
Afraid all along
That in my eyes you're revealing
You'll find out what you're needing

Chorus:
Nothing but pennies in my pocket
Nothing but faith to keep me warm
Well baby, then I'd be broke without it
Tell me, how much for your love?
Slip my heart in your back pocket
All that I got to keep me warm
So baby don't leave me here without it
Tell me how much for your love?
(Nothing but pennies in my pocket)
How much for your love?


Hoping the melody will leave you
You walked here where I might not see you
Reach out to the wind
Looking to catch it for a minute
But just to hold it, not be in it
I've been where you've been
Cause somehow I'm so afraid
The love will reveal
How much you're made of

Chorus (X2)

Your love, baby
Your love
Nothing but
Nothing but, baby

You Remind Me

When I first saw you I couldn't believe
The way you smiled took the breath out of me
And maybe I'm seeing things
But if it's true don't wake me up from this dream


Chorus

You remind me
Of a love I knew
Feels so real it must be deja vu
You remind me
But I ain't got a clue
Boy I'm so glad i found you

I never thought I could love again
Then you came and changed something within (I'm so confused)
I'm so confused 'case you're not the same
But there's something special that reminds me

It's the way you walk and
the way you talk and
You really got style
It's the way you move and
The way you groove and
i love your smile (I love your smile)

Repeat (chorus)


I, I cannot figure out
I ain't got a clue
I'm so confused about how i feel
Cause I'm really feelin' you

It's the way you walk and
the way you talk and
You really got style
It's the way you move and
The way you groove and
i love your smile (I love your smile)

repeat (chorus)

Saturate Me


The desert I wander lacks in it's mirage
There's no mistaking in the barrage
Of sand and wind that tears my skin (tears my skin)
Leaving what's without exposing what's within
Forsaken, left here
In my barren desolate...

CHORUS

My soul is evaporating
Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me
Rain down on me with life
My soul is evaporating
Won't you saturate me, won't you saturate me
Storm around me, bring the tide

My days stretch long into the heat
As the sun brightens my defeat
My lips are chapped, they're parched and dry (parched and dry)
My thirst it builds, with every day gone by....
Forsaken, left here
In my barren desolate...


repeat (chorus)

Storm around me, bring the tide

The dunes that shift, drift and lift in the wind
Cover up my Hope, as i start ot give in
To the cracks and creases and the dips in my will
As I am pushed toward the brink, I drink down and swill

repeat (chorus)

One Sided Love

I know you're tried your best
But that's not good enough for me
Understand, nevertheless
Love's gotta go both ways
Well you push me to the left
Then you push me to the right
But you gotta meet me in the middle
If you wanna make this right

But you gotta believe....
So here it is, here it is, baby here it is....

I wanna help you out, tell you what it's all about
What I feel, what I need, how's it gonna be
So what you wanna do, what you really wanna do
'Cause I've decided everything i want from you

CHORUS

One sided love
Is never gonna work
So let me tell you something
That' I'm sure you've never heard of
Tender love and care
In case you're unaware
So I tell you what
Let me tell you where it's at
Hit me with your best shot

I'm giving you a second chance
But you gotta understand
If you don't know how to love me
I will find someone who can
So read my lips for the last time
I tell you now with no regret
if you don't get your act together
Even your name, I will forget

I wanna help you out, tell you what it's all about
What I feel, what I need, how's it gonna be
So what you wanna do, what you really wanna do
'Cause I've decided everything i want from you


repeat (CHORUS )

(Best shot... best shot....)

One Sided Love.

One sided love
Is never gonna work
So let me tell you something
That' I'm sure you've never heard of
Tender love and care
In case you're unaware
So I tell you what
Let me tell you where it's at baby

17

Some people tell me, that you're not my kind
And i believe them, but i can't get you out of my mind
Some people tell me that i should stay away
Maybe I will... some other day
'Cause it feel right
And it feels good
And i don't do always that i should
And I know what makes me happy
And in my heart you're it exactly


CHORUS
I don't wanna do right, I just want you tonight
Not just only in my dreams
Save my best behavior, for a little later
'Cause I'm only 17
Think i made my mind up, i got time to grow up
Face responsibility
Livin' in the moment, keepin' my heart open
While I'm only 17

I'll learn my lessons, and i'll make mistakes
And If i get burned , well it's my heart to break
It isn't easy, hearing what they say
Sometimes you've got to take a leap of faith

Because it feel right
And it feels good
And I'm not gonna do something stupid
Just this once, i wanna feel like
I can do what i want when i hold tight
repeat (CHORUS)


Anyone, who's ever been in love
Has got to know
What it means to have a dream
And no one can say anything
To change my mind, no, not this time


Repeat (CHORUS

Baby, got time to grow up...
to face responsibility...
hopin'... open...
Cause I'm only 17...

Cry

I'll always remember
It was late afternoon
It lasted forever
And ended too soon
You were all by yourself
Staring up at a dark gray sky
I was changed


CHORUS

In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry

The moment that I saw you cry

It was late in september
And I've seen you before (and you were)
You were always the cold one
But i was never that sure
You were all by yourself
Staring at a dark gray sky
I was changed


repeat (CHORUS )

I wanted to hold you
i wanted to make it go away
I wanted to know you
I wanted to make your everything, all right....

I'll always remember...
It was late afternoon...

Crush

You know everything that I'm afraid of
, You do everything I wish I did ,
everybody want's you
everybody loves you ,
I know
I should tell you how I feel ,
And I wish
everyone would disappear,
everytime you call me
I'm too scared to be me ,
And I'm too shy
to say

CHORUS

Ooh I got a crush
on you ,
I hope you feel
the way that I do,
I get a rush
when I'm with you,
Ooh I've got a crush on you
(crush on you)
You know
I'm the one you that you can talk to,
And sometimes
you tell me thing that I don't want to know,
I just want to hold you ,
And you say exactly how you feel about her .
And I wonder
could you every think of me that you way

Repeat (CHORUS)

Ooh I wish I could tell somebody ,
but there's no to talk you ,
nobody no
I've got a crush on you
,crush on you I got a crush
, You say everything that no one say
but I feel
everything that you're afraid to feel ,
I will always want you , I will always loves you

Repeat (CHORUS)x2


It Only Took A Minute

Don't tell me how I had a vision ,
That this day would come to be ,
Call it luck call it intuition
, Here I am (Here we are )..
Isn't that enough,
For a little bit of reality,
fate is good fate can be real ,
if you believe it's what you feel ,
Oh what a moment .
When I looked into your eyes ,
knew it got de prize, oh baby what a sweet surprise.
It Only took a minute ,
baby to let you in my life,
It only took a minute for me to realize ,
It Only Took A Minute ,
and I knew just what to do ,
It Only Took A Minute to fall in love with you
, time and time again boy
I've always been .
The Only one to think things trough ,
You got a hold of me ,
set me free ,
who would've known .
that out of the blue .
I discovered the magic of all my dreams that night .
With just one look at you .
I knew that everything would be alright .
Here I am , isn't that vision .
Here Iam isn't that vision

Turn The Clock Around

We were talking to each other 'til dawn
You put your arms around me and you asked me what was wrong
I tried to be so serious, you smiled and played along
You had to leave town tomorrow, yeah tomorrow you'd be gone
We must have had the stars above and heaven on our side
'Cause we fell in love before we even made it through the night
But you were leaving town, and started another kind of life
You walked me to the door and we tried to say goodbye


CHORUS

Maybe I've never found the right way
I kept my love hidden underground
Baby I wish that there was some way
That I could turn the clock around

But I couldn't sleep, I called up everybody that I knew
All my friends said that I'd be crazy if I waited 'round you
I wanted to believe then so I called to say we're through
But when I heard your voice, it nearly broke my heart in two

Repeat (CHORUS)

Don't say you're gone, I'll find you
Someday...

Well I jumped into my car but as I headed down the road
I knew that when i got there, there might be nobody home
You had gone away forever, and you left me all alone
Now I was on my own

Repeat (CHORUS

Yo-Yo

It's broken
I know what you want
I'm not a Yo-Yo
I'm not a thing you let go...
I keep hangin around
Got some attachment to you
Way down is still where you get through
I've told myself it isn't right but it isn't wrong
Yet I've found
The more you hot and cold me
The more i need protecting
Can't hear myself singing the same sad song

Oh, and it's not hard to figure out
Why I am never too far from the floor
You can only take me up and down
I've got to move forward
So I've cut the cord

It's broken
I can't let that hope in
I know what you want
I'm not a Yo-Yo
I'm not a thing you let go
You're leaving me no choice and
I'll be on my way
I'm not a Yo-Yo
I don't come back when I'm thrown

I keep hanging around
But can't defy gravity
Rebound every time you touch me
I've told myself it isn't right but it isn't worng
Yet I've found
The more you high and low me
The more i need stability
Can't hear myself singing this for too long

Oh, and now you've come to face the fact
But I'm running fast as I can to the door
'Cause you just wanna swing me up and back
And I've got to move forward
So I've cut the cord

It's broken
And I can't let that hope in
I know what you want
I'm not a Yo-Yo
I'm not a thing you let go
You're leaving me no choice and
I'll be on my way
I'm not a Yo-Yo
I don't come back when I'm thrown

I'll be on my way...

Didn't I adore you
Didn't i bent to keep you satisfied
Didn't I...
Didn't I assure you...
For every climb there is a downward slide..
That I can't ride...

Didn't I adore you you...
Didn't i bent to keep you satisfied...
Didn't i...
Didn't I assure you...
For every climb there is a downward slide...
I had to cut the cord
It's broken...

I know what you want
I'm not a Yo-Yo
I'm not a thing you let go.
When I talk to you


From Loving You


(I had you, I had everything I ever needed)
From that first look I knew
I found heaven in your eyes
But who was to know, the way it would go
I have no regrets
Glad I let you in
Wouldn't have missed one single moment
I would do it all over again


CHORUS


'Cause I was loved
I was touched
And I learned what love is, and I learned what love is
I was blessed
So blessed
'Cause i learned what love is, I learned what love is
From loving you

(I held you, I held everything I ever dreamed of)

With that first kiss from you
All this world seemed all so right
But who was to see the way it would be
I'll never forget
All the heaven we shared
And I'll thank God for every moment
Every moment that I had you there

Repeat(CHORUS)

(Some people search their whole lives
Never find what I found in your eyes)
Glad I got to get the chance to
Have you in my life
I won't be sad when I look back
'Cause I was... I was...

Repeat (CHORUS)

Split Chick

I can run as fast as the boys
I can sing and dance ballet
I can show you all of my toys
though I'd rather be alone today
It's not that I don't like to hang around with you
And though you're fun, I'm on the run, so much to do
Gotta make the dreams I have come true
'Cause life is what you make it and to waste it just won't do


CHORUS

Split Chick
Gotta split, can't stay
That's the way I'm a Split Chick
Thanks a lot
Had fun, see you babe
I'm split in two, I'm a Split Chick

I can hold my breath forever
I can pledge allegance in reverse
You know kids can be so clever
It can be a blessing or a curse
When I'm with you i get lost inside your eyes
I forget about the time and i realize
I gotta run along and sing my song
I'll kiss you and I'll Kiss you and be back before too long


Repeat (CHORUS)

(That's right...)
Every flower has to find a way to reach up to the sun
Even through the cracks in the sidewalk
(Whatever.. Sure)
Gotta make the most of everyday
Makin' friends that'll help me on my way
I'll rise above the fear I feel
I'm gonna take these dreams and make them real

Repeat (CHORUS)

When I Talk To You

Remember me
Feels like forever
Since the days
When we were friends
I don't understand
All these changes
I'm still the same
No need to pretend
Where'd it go..?
Do you know..?
Maybe it just doesn't matter

CHORUS

'Cause when I try to talk to you
I feel like I'm not getting through you
Where did we go wrong
It's hard to be strong
When I talk...
When I talk to you

There were times
In the beginning
When you were there
When I needed you most
We'd sit and talk
About the future
And laugh about
Us getting old

Do you know
How it feels
I hope that you know that it matters

Repeat (CHORUS)


I want you to know everything that I am
Don't want to know what life would be without you

Repeat (CHORUS)
