If only they knew

Talk to me, I'm torn
I could get lost in a voice like yours
Tell me if I'm wrong or right
Tell me I can stay tonight

It's in the way that you fool everyone when you're falling in love again
So tell me, how does this?

Cause no one knows you like I do
They don't see you like I do, baby
They try to, oh if only they knew
They'll never come close to you

Girl you know you got it
Oh, you know you do it better
(Girl you know you got it)
(Oh, you know you do it better)

Girl you know I want it
Oh, I want it more than ever
(Girl you know I want it)
(Oh, I know it's now or never)

Cuz no one loves you more than I do
They don't see you like I do, baby
They try to, oh if only they knew
They'll never come close to you
They'll never come close to you

And you brighten up the world
With your eyes
And you're so damn lovely
When you're on my mind
Cuz you're the only one

Cuz no one knows you like I do
They don't see you like I do, baby
They'll try to, oh if only they knew
They'll never come close to you
They'll never come close to you

They'll try to, oh if only they knew
They'll never come close to you

Just another one


She started dancing at the second that she heard the music play
[She's always moving]
She looks at me but then I look back at her
She turns away
[She knows exactly what she's doing]

She moves closer and I'm thinking to myself that she's all mine
[She's all mine]
We start talking and she takes my hand like she does this all the time

Go! Go! Go!
You never had the time because you move too slow
And I know, know, know
That she could care less about love
It's just for fun
I'm just another one

I'm just a notch in her bough
It's laying on the floor
I know her so well
Call me crazy but I'm thinking to myself that I can't do this anymore

And she knows how to bring me down [2x]

And shes low, low, low!
She always keeps me waiting cause shes so shallow
And oh, oh, oh!
The only thing she ever said
Besides I think we're done
I'm just another one

Cause she can't
Ever fall in love
Cause this is who she is
And this is all she knows

Go Go Go
You never had the time because you move too slow
I know, know, know
That she could care less about love
It's just for fun
I'm just another one

I'm just another one

And I could care less about her
She's just another one

Life of the party

If they're on you like a tattoo
They're watching every move that you're making
You're blue eyes were white lies
I thought you were mine for the taking
But you punch my lights out

Now you're free to be
The lonely life of the party
Go, you'll see
Let's get one thing straight
You're gonna regret you left me

Never shoulda told you that I fell in love
'Cause you turned me right around
And threw me down and now I can't get up
You'll be sorry, just you wait and see
But let's get one thing straight
You're gonna regret you left me

You puzzle like a jigsaw
You love me, now we don't fit together
I used up my last straw
I thought I would drink you forever
But now you're my last call

Now you're free to be
The lonely life of the party
Go, you'll see
Let's get one thing straight
You're gonna regret you left me

Never shoulda told you that I fell in love
'Cause you turned me right around
And threw me down and now I can't get up
You'll be sorry, just you wait and see
But let's get one thing straight
You're gonna regret you left me

I know why you set the trap
I know why you dress in black
Flies in your web tonight

I know why you beat the rap
Some day you'll be crawling back, crawling
You'll be crawling back to me, yeah

I never shoulda told you that I fell in love
'Cause you turned me right around
And threw me down and now I can't get up
You'll be sorry just you wait and see
But let's get one thing straight

Never shoulda told you that I fell in love
'Cause you turned me right around
And threw me down and now I can't get up
You'll be sorry just you wait and see
But let's get one thing straight
You're gonna regret you left me

Never shoulda told you that I fell in love
'Cause you turned me right around
And threw me down and now I can't get up
You'll be sorry just you wait and see
But let's get one thing straight
You're gonna regret you left me

Like we used to

I could feel her breath as she's sleeping next to me
Sharing pillows and cold feet
She can feel my heart; fell asleep to its beat
Under blankets and warm sheets
If only I could be in that bed again
If only it were me instead of him

Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts?
When you've seen it a million times
Does he sing to all your music?
While you dance to purple rain
Does he do all these things?
Like I used to?

14 months and 7 days ago,
Oh I know you know how we felt about that night
Just your skin against the window
Oh we took it slow and we both know
It shoulda been me inside that car
It should have been me instead of him in the dark

Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts?
When you've seen it a million times
Does he sing to all your music?
While you dance to purple rain
Does he do all these things?
Like I used to?

I know that love happens all the time, love
(I'm a sucker for that feeling)
You're on my mind, love
(I always end up feeling cheated)
And that happens all the time, love
(Oh darling, I know I'm not needed)

Will he love you like I loved you?
Will he tell you everyday?
Will he make you feel like your invincible
With every word he'll say
Can you promise me that this was right?
Don't throw it all away
Can you do all these things?
Will you do all these things?
Like we used to

Oh like we used to

Mr. right

My girlfriend's got a boyfriend, funny
He doesn't make a dime all day
And all her girlfriends' boyfriends make money
What more can I say?

It's true
He never made it through a day of school
The only thing he studied was you
He knows your body better than you do

Maybe I'm your Mr. Right
Baby, maybe I'm the one you like
Maybe I'm a shot in the dark
And you're the morning light, whoa

Maybe this is sad but true
Baby, maybe you've got nothing to lose
You could be the best of me
When I'm the worst for you

My girlfriend's got a boyfriend
Running to catch the bus to meet
To meet up with the boyfriend's girlfriend
Who's stunning, she's such a sight to see

It's true
The moment he laid eyes on you he knew
The only wish he wanted came true
He knows he's lucky that he met someone like you

Maybe I'm your Mr. Right
Baby, maybe I'm the one you like
Maybe I'm a shot in the dark
And you're the morning light, whoa

Maybe this is sad but true
Baby, maybe you've got nothing to lose
You could be the best of me
When I'm the worst for you

You can always change your mind
And you can't change mine
No, you can't change mine

Maybe I'm your Mr. Right
Baby, maybe I'm the one you like
Maybe I'm a shot in the dark
And you're the morning light, whoa

Maybe this is sad but true
Baby, maybe you've got nothing to lose
You could be the best of me
When I'm the worst for you
I'm the worst for you

On a lonely night


i was 16 met you out in Ohio
you were only 15 living life by a mile
we layed under the stars
fell asleep in your backyard
you said you could try but you never need too
coz with us u never try too hard
and you never will

on a lonely night
you will see that everything to me (you got everything)
on a lonely night
oh the truth is every night is lonely without you
every night is lonely without you

we are older now and you came back to Ohio
wisphered something to me i haven't heard in a while
i wish i could lie and just tell you i'm fine
you wouldn't belive me if you try
if i listen to our song i'll be up all night

on a lonely night
you will see that everything to me (you got everything)
on a lonely night
oh the truth is every night is lonely without you
every night is lonely without you

it's been forever
but lately its been hard
but when we took your parent's car
and drove forever in the dark
i'd give it all away if i can see you once again
and i was so lost growing crossing out in your

on a lonely night
you will see that everything to me (you got everything)
on a lonely night
oh the truth is every night is lonely without you
every night is lonely without you here

and every guy will be lonely without you there

She's killing me


I'd leave a trail of roses that lead back home
(so come back home)
She'll pick a fight for no good reason
She knows I'll never leave
I love her half to death but she's killing me

All my friends, they say they like her
But I know behind my back
They all think the same things that I do

She spends her daddy's credit card
and says that I'm the one who's lazy
She's like a dream and a nightmare coming true

I'll take her out and drop her off
On the outskirts of our town
I'd leave a trail of roses that lead back home
(so come back home)
She'll pick a fight for no good reason
She knows I'll never leave
I love her half to death but she's killing me

And I wouldn't have it any other way
She can change her clothes
She can change her hair
But she'll always be the same

So I went out and bought her roses
She complained about the thorns
I caught her smiling and that's what I do it for

I'll take her out and drop her off
On the outskirts of our town
I'd leave a trail of roses that lead back home
(so come back home)
She'll pick a fight for no good reason
She knows I'll never leave
I love her half to death, Oh yeah, I love her half to death

I'll take her out and drop her off
On the outskirts of our town
I'd leave a trail of roses that lead back home
(so come back home)
She'll pick a fight for no good reason
She knows I'll never leave
I love her half to death but she's killing me
She's killing me

Where did you go


She never knows when it's raining,
She only knows when it's cold.
She's always saying how she hates it, how,
Her story sounds so old.

She packed her clothes in her suitcase,
Then put that case in her car.
She says she's gotta get so far gone, oh, so far gone
That she don't even care how far.

Where did you go when you knew you didn't know me?
And you never wanted to figure me out.
I didn't know, I never even saw it comin',
I'll wait all my life...

So come back over to the East Coast, baby,
We'll figure out a way to make this work.
My chest is feelin' empty, always,
You're its only cure.

You know that I try so hard, I try so hard
And nothing seems to ever work.
It's like I'm runnin' and I cannot stop, I cannot stop
But you just love to make this hurt.

Where did you go when you knew you didn't know me?
And you never wanted to figure me out.
I didn't know, I never even saw it comin',
I'll wait all my life, if you give me some time.

[slight musical break]

She's all alone now,
She can't find her own way out.
Where I am sundown,
And she's caught up in her new West Coast town.

She's all alone,
Finding her own way out.
California, let me down,
She traded me for livin' the good life,
Stayin' up all night.
Darling, can you hear me now?

Where did you go when you knew you didn't know me?
And you never wanted to figure me out.
I didn't know, I never even saw it comin',
I'll wait all my life...
Where did you go? (whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
I didn't know. (whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
I didn't know, I never even saw it comin',
I'll wait all my life if you give me some time.
(Gimme gimme, gimme gimme some time [x3])
If you give me some time.
