Titolo: You Bring Me Down

You let me down, cant fix you now
Thought i could count on you to be around
You bring me down, down, down way down

What is the problem
Are you taking me seriously
Is it a joke to you
Or maybe im a fool

Why am i trying
So hard to be the girl that you need
How is this fair to me
When you break through

This is to much
Dont call it love
You are the reason its so hard to trust
Boy this aint what i wanted
And now its got to stop

You let me down, cant fix you now
Thought i could count on you to be around
You bring me down, down, down way down

No more tears
Why did i let you have so much control
I gave my arm to you
And you pushed me away

Why are you here oh
Dont you see im letting you go
The damage is done baby
I have nothing to say

Its gone to far
Dont know who you are
I think its better that we are apart

Babe i know where i am
And i know where your near

You let me down, cant fix you now
Thought i could count on you to be around
You bring me down, down, down way down

You let me down, thought i had had found
Some one to catch me when i hit the ground
You bring me down, down, down way down (ooooh)

Would you like it if
I did the same thing to
You and i lasted
Walking years on ma shoes

Boy theres no excuse
Cause of what you did theres no me and you

Would you like it if
I did the same thing
You wouldnt of liked
Walking in time

Boy theres no excuse
Thats who you are and im so over you

You let me down, cant fix you now
Thought i could count on you to be around
You bring me down, down, down way down

You let me down,thought i had had found
Some one to catch me when i hit the ground
You bring me down, down, down way down

Down
Down
Stop bringing me, stop bringing me
Down down
Oooh

Titolo: The Best You Never Had

I was so in love with you
There was nothing I could do
Wouldn’t give me the time of day
Now you wanna be with me
You say you wanna be with me

You said I was the best
Gave your love out the rest
There was nothing I could say
It’s going good for me
You say you wanna be with me
Now

Yeah you’re telling me that
I am were it’s at
But I ain’t having none of that….

[Chorus:]
Because I told you, you would look to regret it,
and now I don’t wanna make you feel bad,
But when it comes to me just forget it,
I’ll be the best you never had,
You put me through so many emotions,
Now baby it’s your turn for that,
’cause in your empty heart I left a mark,
The best you never had.

No, No, No

You saw me as a friend,
Baby I don’t want revenge,
But if you must know the truth,
What you didn’t see in me
Reflects what you will never be now,
When you’re telling me I was always the one,
I feel your desperation.

[Chorus]

Back rubs, good love, my stuff
That’s what you missed out on
My touch… show much we could have
You miss,
My kiss,
My lips,
The love I had for you
Our song, so long

[Chorus x2]

Well I will always be the best you never had

The best you never had

Titolo: Here I Am

This is a crazy world
These can be lonely times
It’s hard to know who’s on your side
Most of the time

Who can you really trust
Who do you really know
Is there anybody out there
Who can make you feel less alone
Some times you just can’t make it on your own

If you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I’ll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, hmmm

If you have broken dreams
Just lay them all on me
I’ll be the one who understands
So take my hand

If you reach emptyness

You know I’ll do my best
To fill you up with all the love
That I can show someone
I promise you you’ll never walk alone

Well if you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I’ll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, oooo

Everybody needs somebody who
keep a heart and soul in two

Well if you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I’ll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, Here I am

Titolo: Footprints In The Sand

You walked with me
Footprints in the sand
And helped me understand
Where I’m going

You walked with me
When I was all alone
With so much unknown
Along the way

And just when I
I thought I’d lost my way
You gave me strength to carry on
That’s when I heard you say

I promise you
I’m always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow
And despair

And I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand
When I’m weary
Well I know you’ll be there
Cause I can feel you
When you say

I promise you
I’m always there
When your heart is filled with sadness and despair
Oh, I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand

[choir]

When your heart is full of sadness and despair
I’ll carry you
When you need a friend

I promise you
I’m always there
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints
In the sand

Titolo: Take A Bow

[Verse 1:]
The flowers are faded now
Along with your letters
They will never see the light of day
Cause I’ll never take them out
And there’s no turning back
Its for the better
Baby I disserved more than empty words
And promises
I believed everything you said
And I give you the best I have
Oh.

[Chorus:]
So take a bow.
Cause you’ve taken everything else
You played the part and like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
’cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you give me was pretend
So now… Take a bow

[Verse 2:]
The future’s about to change
Before you know it the curtain closes
Take a look around
There’s no one in the crowd
I’m throwing away the pain
And you should know that your performance it made me stronger now

[Chorus]

[Hook:]
Well it must have been slight of hand
’cause I still can’t understand
How I could never see
Just what a fool believed
Um

But the lies they start to show
Tell me how it feels to know
Right now that I wont be around
So baby before I put you out

[Chorus x2]

Titolo: Whatever It Takes

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

People say love
Comes and goes, but
They don’t understand
What they don’t know
Cause, what I feel starts
Deep inside
It’s planted like a seed
That springs into life

They say it’s not right
And we move too fast
But they don’t know the meaning
Of what we have

Wherever it is, I’ll fly
Whatever it takes, I’ll try
So don’t pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
‘Cause you know why
There’s no standing in our way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

When you’re far and
We’re apart
I’m really missing you
I wanna be where you are

They say it’s not right (it’s not right)
And it won’t last (it won’t last)
No point believing
What we have

Wherever it is, I’ll fly
Whatever it takes, I’ll try
So don’t pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
I’ll be on time
‘Cause you know why
There’s no standing in my way

And if you’re lost
I’m gonna find you
‘Cause without you
I’ll break down and cry
And you know why
I wanna surround you
With all my love

[Choir joins, ad libs from Leona]

Wherever it is, I’ll fly
Whatever it takes, I’ll try
So don’t pay no mind
To whatever people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
‘Cause you know why
There’s no standing in my way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

Titolo: Yesterday

I just cant believe your gone, still waitin for mornin to come, when i see if the sun will
Rise,in the way that your by my side, oooo where we had so much in store, tell me what is it
All reaching for, when were through building memories il hold yesterday in my heart, in my heart

[Chorus]
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made, they can take the music that wel never play, all
The broken dreams, take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday, they
Can take the future that wel never know they can take the places that we said we will go, all
The broken dreams take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday

You always choose to stay, i should be thankful for everyday, heaven knows what the future
Holds, or least where the story goes, i never believed untill now, i know il see you again im
Sure, no its not selfish to ask for more, one more night one more day one more smile on your
Face but they cant take yesterday,

[Chorus]
They can take tomorrow and the plans we made, they take the music that wel never play, all the
Broken dreams take everythin, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday, they can
Take the future that wel never know, they can take the places that we said we will go, all the
Broken dreams, take everything, just take it away, but they can never have yesterday.

I thought our days would last forever, but it wasnt our destiny, coz in my mind we had so much
Time, but i was so wrong, no i can believe me i can still find the strengh in the moments we
Made im lookin back on yesterday

Titolo: The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies my love

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move through my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love

The first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face

Titolo: Angel

I feel it, you feel it
That this was meant to be.
I know it, you know it
That you were made for me.
We can’t deny this any longer
Day by day we’re getting stronger.
I want it, you want it
It’s what the people want to see.

We’re like Romeo and Juliet
Families can’t divide us.
Like the tallest mountain on the widest sea
Nothing’s big enough to hide us.
When we make love its overwhelming
I just touch the heavens
You’re an angel, you’re an angel

I said this world, this world.
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don’t wanna go to sleep
’cause you are like a dream
For every night I say a prayer,
And I swear you are the answer
You’re an angel, you’re an angel, you’re an angel.

So we take it each moment our love grows
I see it, you see it,
What we have is made of gold
We’re so filled with meaning,
Nothing can make us shallow.
So I hold it, and you hold it
The promise of tomorrow.
When we make love its overwhelming
I just touch the heavens.
You’re an angel, you’re an angel

And I said this world, this world
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don’t wanna go to sleep
’cause you are like a dream
For every night I say a prayer,
And I swear you are the answer
You’re an angel, you’re an angel, you’re an angel.

I don’t need three wishes
Oh I just need one
For us to never be finished
For us to never be numb
When they say it’s over
We’ll just say I love you
And when they say it’s finished
We’ll just keep on building.

And I said this world, this world
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don’t wanna go to sleep
’cause you are like a dream
For every night I say a prayer,
And I swear you are the answer [x2]

You’re an angel, you’re an angel, you’re an angel.

Yes you are. You’re an angel

Titolo: Misses Glass

See I try to hide the fact
That I am just a fragile individual
So I give off this facade that I’m so hard
When in fact I’m far from unbreakable
I’m so afraid to talk and express myself
Keepin’ all my feelings bottled inside
Of this empty shell that I call my heart
‘Cause I can’t let love back in again…
Oh, I wish I’d known love was cold before I fell in
‘Cause I went head on with its storm
Like lightning going into sand…

[Chorus:]
Oh, it’s better to have loved
Than not to have loved at all
So I guess I should feel fortunate
But it don’t feel that way, least not in my heart
‘Cause see love has left me broken (broken like glass)
So when you see me you can call me
See me you can call me Misses Glass

Now after all the lying to myself
I’m stuck feeling miserable
When I have forced myself to be somebody else
Making me seem invisible
‘Cause see I’m a woman like any other woman
Indecisive and emotional
And you might never ever know
Oh, I wish I’d known love was cold before I fell in
‘Cause I went head on with its storm
Like lightning going into sand

[Chorus]
