CRY BABY
Picked you up on a Saturday night
Hopin’, that later I could hold you tight
Spend my money like it’s out of style
For all my luck I can’t raise a smile
From you
Baby
You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight
I don’t need no cry baby
Good-bye
Took you out on another date
I begged you, baby, please, don’t be late
Supposed to be ready ‘bout an hour ago
Y’leave me downstairs, just pacin’ the floor
You’re late
I wait
You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight
I don’t need no cry baby
Good-bye
The moon is risin’
We could be drivin’
Girl, we’re just wastin’ time
With all your cryin’
Your just denyin’
Any love that comes to you
(SOLO)
Bless my soul, what’s wrong with you
Whinin’ all the time like babies do
The game you’re playin’s just not my bag
Come on, baby, you’re such a drag
No fun
I’m done
You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight
I don’t need no cry baby
Good-bye
The moon is risin’
We could be drivin’
Girl, we’re just wastin’ time
With all your cryin’
Your just denyin’
Any love that comes to you
Bless my soul, what’s wrong with you
Whinin’ all the time like babies do
The game you’re playin’s just not my bag
Come on, baby, you’re such a drag
No fun
I’m done
You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight
I don’t need no cry baby
Good-bye

Every Time I See Her

EVERYTIME I SEE HER
(VERSE)
Words spill out on an empty page
Everytime I see her
My friends say, “Better act your age!”
Everytime I see her
I don’t care if it seems I’ve lost my mind
Is it just imagination or does something crazy happen everytime?
(CHORUS)
I wanna hold her but, I lose my grip
Everytime I see her
I fall in love ‘cause I always trip
Everytime I see that girl
(VERSE)
Try to turn away but, I gotta look back
Everytime I see her
I feel like a train runnin’ off the track
Everytime I see her
I don’t know, it seems I’ve lost control
I don’t know if what I’m feeling’s really love, I just don’t know
(CHORUS)
Wanna tell her that I love her but, I lose my nerve
Everytime I see her
My tongue gets tied and I’m lost in the words
Everytime I see her
I wanna hold her but, I lose my grip
Everytime I see her
I fall in love ‘cause I always trip
Everytime I see that girl
(SOLO)
I don’t know, it seems I’ve lost control
I don’t know if what I’m feeling’s really love, I just don’t know
(CHORUS)
Wanna tell her that I love her but, I lose my nerve
Everytime I see her
My tongue gets tied and I’m lost in the words
Everytime I see her
I wanna hold her but, I lose my grip
Everytime I see her
I fall in love ‘cause I always trip
Everytime I see that girl
Everytime I see that girl
Everytime I see that girl

MALIBU
Dear summer love
It's been a lonely year
I wish I could wish you here
To make the sun break through
Like Malibu
Hold on heart, I know,
We had to say goodbye
The water got in my eye
In tears that were deep blue
Like Malibu
I wanna feel you breathe on my skin
Warm as the sun, soft as the sand
See your hair in shimmering waves
Falling down
Dear friend of mine
This California dawn
Tells me you're really gone
Lost to my misty view
Like Malibu

THE BIG PICTURE
STOLEN FIRE OF A PROMISED LIFE
STANDING IDLE ON THE EDGE OF A KNIFE
RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LOVE YOU SAVED
POLISHED WITH POISON, THE DREAMS YOU’VE MADE
NEVER EXPECTED TO GET THIS FAR
NEVER ACCEPTED TO BE WHO YOU ARE
FOREVER WAITING IN THE WINGS UNTIED
DON’T YOU COMPROMISE
AND IF YOU FEEL SOMEONE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOU
YOUJUST MAY BE RIGHT AND THEN
YOU MAY BE WRONG AGAIN
MARCH TO THE LEFT, MARCH TO THE RIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE
STAND IN THE DARK, STAND IN THE LIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE
YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE LEFT ALONE
YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE ON YOUR OWN
WHAT’S UP WITH YOU AND THIS CHANGE OF HEART
WE WERE WORLDS APART
WE ONLY KNOW WHAT WE NEED TO
WEONLY SEE WHAT WE HAVE TO
WELL, YOU CAN CALL IT WHAT YOU WANT TO
I CALL IT LOVE
AND IF YOU KNEW THAT THERE’S STILL A PLACE FOR YOU
YOU CAN WIN THE HUMAN RACE
ALL IN RECORD TIME
MARCH TO THE LEFT, MARCH TO THE RIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE
STAND IN THE DARK, STAND IN THE LIGHT
HOW DO YOU FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE

GENTLE SOUL
(I Can Still Hear You)
All feeling flows
From letting you go
The sadness I feel
You’ll never know
What I always wanted to say
Can you hear me?
Could it be true?
This message from you
Straight from the heart
Drowning in blue
Oceans cry for you
Hear them crying
Want you to know (Gentle Soul)
Gentle Soul, I can still hear you
Want you to know (Gentle Soul)
Gentle Soul, I can still hear you
I caught your eye
A moment in time
That said it all
God only knows
That we’ve lost you all too soon
Such a crime
Want you to know (Gentle Soul)
Gentle Soul, I can still hear you
Want you to know (Gentle Soul)
Gentle Soul, I can still hear you
Your voice sings to my soul
And it’s alright
Deep in my heart
I’ll always know
You’ll be the one
Touching my soul
‘Cause there really are no good-byes
I can hear you
Want you to know (Gentle Soul)
Gentle Soul, I can still hear you
Want you to know (Gentle Soul)
Gentle Soul, I can still hear you
All feeling flows
From letting you go
