Thinking Of You
02:25
|
|||
|
Thinking of you (the same old way)
Thinking of you (every day)
Thinking of you is all I’m ever able to do
You used to be in my mind, taking up all of my time
It’s true, I couldn’t stop thinking about you
But then you were gone and something felt wrong
Cause I wasn’t thinking of you
You know it’s true; how I feel about you
So why can’t I just tell you how I feel
Now that you’ve come back to me, I need to make it plain to see
That you’re always on my mind; I’m thinking of you all the time
When you’re not here I’m thinking of you
It’s true, that’s all I ever do when you’re away
You know it’s true; how I feel about you
So why can’t I just tell you how I feel
You used to be in my mind, taking up all of my time
It’s true, I couldn’t stop thinking about you
Oh, it’s true, I couldn’t stop thinking of you
Oh, it’s true, I couldn’t stop thinking of you

Kirstin

Kirstin, oh my Kirstin; I don’t think you realize what we are versus what we could be
Kirstin, lovely Kirstin; oh girl, don’t you know, I’m putting in effort to steer us somewhere
If you’re not gonna try, then what’s the point in staying around
Just to watch me cry or just to put me down
Kirstin, beautiful Kirstin, can’t you see; you’re leading me to a world of misery
I don’t know why I trusted you with my heart; what was the reason
If you’re gonna tear it apart, it almost seems like treason
I should’ve been more cautious with the love I had for you
The love I thought was shared; with you feeling the same way that I do
If you’re not gonna try, then what’s the point in staying around
Just to watch me cry or just to put me down
Kirstin
(Oh Kirstin girl) Kirstin
(Don’t you know I’m talking about you) Kirstin
(Why’d you’d have to break my heart in two) Kirstin
(Oh come on Kirstin) Kirstin
(Why’re you leaving me alone) Kirstin

You Make Me Feel Happy
03:12
|

|
Oh, little girl, every day I work myself to the bone just in hopes I’ll see you at home
Don’t you see some days I’m just dead on my feet, can’t you tell it’s true when we’re alone
I’m working nine to five every single day and it makes me want to die
But as long as I know you’ll be waiting here for me, I know there ain’t no reason to cry
To complain is in vain, cause it won’t stop the rain from pouring down on me
Oh girl, when I’ve had a really long day, you make me feel happy
When I’m done my shift and my spirits need a lift, you’ll always be there to make me smile
When I’ve been worked down to the bone and I just can’t go on, I know I’ll see you in a while
When I get back home it’s true, I wanna spend my time with you
You’re the only person who makes me feel this way, until i’m back to work the next day
When the day’s been so long and I’m feeling down and out; I know I can rely on you
Cause I know when I see your pretty little face girl; you’ll do that thing you do
When I get back home it’s true, I wanna spend my time with you
You’re the only person who makes me feel this way, until i’m back to work the next day
When the day’s been so long and I’m feeling down and out; I know I can rely on you
Cause I know when I see your pretty little face girl; you’ll do that thing you do
To complain is in vain, cause it won’t stop the rain from pouring down on me
Oh girl, when I’ve had a really long day, you make me feel happy
You make me feel happy
You make me feel happy

I'd Never Let You Go
02:11
|
|||
|
The way I feel for you, don't think I'm grounded in reality
The way I feel for you, it's love and it's plain to see
Things have been sparking up between us, dear, and I think you should know
That I've got feelings for you baby and I'd never let you go
I didn't think that I could feel for you this way before,
And I didn't ever think that I'd tell you that I'm loving you more, more, more
Things have been sparking up between us, dear, and I think you should know
That I've got feelings for you baby and I'd never let you go
Imagine me holding you tight as you drift asleep with me near
Imagine me kissing you goodnight as I whisper "I love you" in your ear
Things have been sparking up between us, dear, and I think you should know
That I've got feelings for you baby and I'd never let you go

Without You Near Me
02:18
|
|||
|
When I thought everything was happy as could be, love
You made me see that you weren’t being true to me and it hurt
I finally brought it up and got you to admit, girl
But then you quit; you walked out of my door suddenly
Well I’ve been missing you so much it’s true
Without you near me, I don’t know what I’ll do
Since you walked out on me, I’ve been feeling down without you around
You left me here in misery yet I still don’t feel for you, bitterly
You know the world seems a little colder now that I can’t hold you tight
And it feels as though I’m feeling lower, all the time; it should be a crime
I remember all those gifts that I gave you
But they couldn’t save our love that was fading away to nothing
Well I’ve been missing you so much it’s true
Without you near me, I don’t know what I’ll do
Since you walked out on me I’ve been feeling down, down to the ground
But I know you’ll regret leaving me someday.
Without you near me

Well it’s true, I’m losing faith in you
You better decide what it is you’re gonna do
I’m giving you chance to decide
Cause I can’t hold back these tears in my eyes
If you’re gonna leave, you better start walking now
I know that you’ve been talking to him everyday
If that’s the way you’re acting then I can’t let you stay
I’m giving you a chance
To save our dying romance
But if you’re gonna leave, you better start walking now
Oh, what happened to the love that we once shared
A love that was so strong and never had to be repaired
Oh, what happened to the love that we once shared
A love that was so strong and never had to be repaired
Well it’s true, I’m losing faith in you
You better decide what it is you’re gonna do
I’m giving you a chance
To save our dying romance
If you’re gonna leave, you better start walking
If you’re gonna leave, you better start walking
If you’re gonna leave, you better start walking now

I Just Need Your Love
02:52
|
|||
|
I know that you aren’t trying to ignore me
But sometimes I just need your love and company
Cause when I start to frown and look oh so down
It’s cause I just need your love
Recently it seems that things are lacking between us
So that’s why I’m standing here making all this fuss
I think we need to talk things through
Cause I haven’t heard a word from you
And I just need, need your love
What’s made you busy suddenly
What’s been taking up your time
Why can’t you find the time for me
You keep blowing me off and I can’t take it anymore
Every time we try to talk the plans fall to the floor
What’s made you busy suddenly
What’s been taking up your time
Why can’t you find the time for me
You keep blowing me off and I can’t take it anymore
Every time we try to talk the plans fall to the floor
I know that you aren’t trying to ignore me
But sometimes I just need your love and company
Cause when I start to frown and look oh so down
It’s cause I just need your love
Need your love
Need your love
Need your love

You always like to play games with my heart
And you know that it starts to kill me when we’re apart
Is it oh so bad to want
When all you do is taunt
I just want to hold you by my side
You know that I’m in love with you, it’s true
Cause every time you talk to him, it makes me blue
Is it really too much to ask
To complete such a simple task
Cause I just want to hold you by my side
Oh, you said you needed someone, who could hold you tight (hold you tight)
But when I say it’s me you want, you don’t think that I’m right
Oh, you said you needed someone, who could hold you tight (hold you tight)
But when I say it’s me you want, you don’t think that I’m right
You know you shouldn’t play these games with me
Cause you made one wrong move and baby can’t you see
That I can’t get you out of my mind
No matter how hard I’ve tried
Cause I just want to hold you by
I just want to hold you by
Cause all I want to do is hold you by my side

Break It In Two
03:25
|
|||
|
I can’t believe I let you have my heart
If you were just going to tear it apart
What a foolish thing for me to do
I can’t believe I’d trusted you with my heart
Cause you‘d just break it in two
I can’t believe I let you into my life
I should’ve known you’d cause me all this strife
To never notice you were cruel and mean
How blind must I have been
With my heart, you would just break it in two
I let you run your circles ‘round me
While I thought things were as fine as could be
All those days and hours I spent with you
All for you to break my heart in two
I let you run your circles ‘round me
While I thought things were as fine as could be
All that time I wasted with you
All for you to break my heart in two
I can’t believe I let you have my heart
If you were just going to tear it apart
What a foolish thing for me to do
I can’t believe I’d trusted you with my heart
Should've known that you’d just
Break it in two
Break it in two
Break it in two
Break it in two

She's So Sweet
02:26
|
|||
|
Well I saw you at the party, sitting all by yourself, baby
One of my friends leaned on over to me and said "you gonna ask her out"; I said "maybe"
I sat there thinking to myself; she's so sweet
I think, I think; no, I know it's true
As I walked towards you, I saw a look in your eyes
A look I hadn't seen in years girl and it took me by surprise
I sat there thinking to myself; she's so sweet
I think, I think; no, I know it's true
As I walked towards you, I saw a look in your eyes
A look I hadn't seen in years girl and it took me by surprise
I sat there thinking to myself; she's so sweet
I think, I think; no, I know it's true
Oh I said 1, 2, 3, 4; don't you know I love you more than he does
And I always will
If you come on with me, I'll make you feel happy.
Don't you hear everybody talking about how she's so sweet
Don't you know everybody's talking about how she's so sweet
I think, I think; no, I know it's true
I think, I think; no, I know it's true
I think, I think; no, I know it's true
