You make me beg
You make me sweat
You make me want what I can't get
You lead me in
You lead me out
Imagination needs the room
Not your doubt
All because you say that you're unsure
Yeah I hear you talking
But baby
Baby you know
Show what you know
It's time to let go
Show what you know
Your thinking to slow
I want you to show
Show what you know
What you get
Is what I mean
Your fascination
Won't surrender in between
All because you say that you're unsure
Yeah I hear you talking
But baby
Baby you know
Show what you know
It's time to let go
Show what you know
Your thinking to slow
I want you to show
Show what you know

We’re gonna bring it down to the water
Like John tha Baptist said
We’re gonna bring down to the people
We’re gonna bring it to their head
We’re gonna bring it down to the lovers
Walkin’ on the street
We’re gonna bring it down to the shakers
So they can move their feet.
Gonna make you move
Alright. That is just alright
Gonna make you move
Alright. That is just alright
Gonna make you move
Alright. That is just alright
Gonna make you move
Alright. That is just alright

She'd been feigning interest
Uninvolved with me
Our demise was glaring
But to hard to say
It's not like it used to be
It was better then
She said, When did you stop caring oh, oh, oh
I don't tink your trying oh, oh, oh
That's why we're so boring oh, oh, oh
I need variety
Her apathy was spreading
It became our thing
We'd sit around together
Like mainland castaways
It's not like it used to be
It was better then
I said, When did you stop caring oh, oh, oh
I don't tink your trying oh, oh, oh
That's why we're so boring oh, oh, oh
I need variety
It's not my responsibility
to entertain her
but she says the same to me
to me to me
to me
It's not like it used to be
It was better then
We said, When did you stop caring oh, oh, oh
I don't tink your trying oh, oh, oh
That's why we're so boring oh, oh, oh
I need variety

Cry
04:09

I have stared into the eyes of hope
and I cried
Oh I cried
I have lived through the triumph of man
and I cried
Oh I cried
I've given all
I had to give
Been paralyzed by dispair
Freed by hope to the air
I want't to cry
I have shared with the lonely for days
and I cried
Oh I cried
I believed and I lost everything
and I cried
Oh I cried
I lived jealously through you
Lived in awe of what we do
surrendered to love
soared high above the smoke
I want to cry
In a storm of emotion
Cry
Release my thoughts to the wind
Cry
Hold on to nothing
Cry
I lived jealously through you
Lived in awe of what we do
surrendered to love
soared high above the smoke
I want to cry
In a storm of emotion
Cry
Release my thoughts to the wind
Cry
Hold on to nothing
Cry

A man makes up reasons to believe now and then
And time healed those memories and that old feeling set in
Now it is over before it began
and I live with that other old feeling again
I wish for another
but it’s that other old feeling again
I gave up on moonlight and stars shining bright
but she looked like a true wish to stay up for at night
I got that old feeling and I knew it was right
but the stars, they stopped falling again
Now I wish for another
but it’s that other old feeling again
Oh, I keep looking up
but that’s cause my back’s to the ground
I can’t get much lower
But I’m feeling much bolder now
The clear skies of morning now wash through my head
The lonely of loss I’ve learned to take in
Now somehow that’s over before it began
and I wait for that other old feeling again
I look for another
and that other old feeling again.

Have you ever seen a face that you just can’t look away from
have you ever seen a face that you just can’t turn away from
Have you ever met a girl that you just can’t walk away from
Have you ever seen a face that was made for you to look on
I met that girl today
Before she walked away
I put her in my Facebook
Have you ever played disguise when you met those eyes that leave you wanting
so you keep looking back but you never get enough they keep calling
have you ever seen those lips that you just have to kiss - so inviting
have you ever seen a smile that just for a while leaves you blinded
i met that girl today
before she walked away
i put her in my facebook
i put her in my facebook
BR) a subtle stare
now she’s aware
i put her in my facebook
i put her in my facebook
have you ever switched chairs while shes her playin with her hair - slightly
have you ever chose
to think of a nose so intently
have you ever made a play so she would look your way accidently
have you ever been a wreck cause what’s sittin on that neck is just crazy
i met that girl today
before she walked away
i put her in my facebook
i put her in my facebook
Have you ever lost your mind over 1 2 3 4 one of a kind
have you ever run the streets just trying to see her one more time
have you ever played the fool thinking she might go for your line
have you ever walked away not really knowing what just happened
you know what you found
she’ll be back around
put her in your facebook

She's Always A Woman
03:34

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child,
But she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her, as long as it's free
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me
CHORUS:
Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
And she'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me
--Mhmm--
Bridge
CHORUS:
Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
She is frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me
--Mhmm--

Press On

press on when your darkest hour's right around the bend
press on when your all alone and you cannot find a friend
press on when your shoulders are carrying the world
press on oh press on
press on when the pressures high and you can't seem to breathe
press on when the load is heavy and a hand is what you need
press on when you say a prayer but nothing seems to change
press on oh press on
br) it's sho gets tough with that morning sun rise
but it's only enough when tried all your tryin
press on - yea- when love knocks you to your knees
press on when worked so hard your hands begin to bleed
press on when you need to share but cannot find the words
press on press on oh press on
