"Too Early To Be Over"

   
With another day another life slips away
And floats above the crowd
You can only stay ahead of time when time co-operates
Instead of heading south
Cards are dealt
You play what you hold
You can't tell me the story's been told

It's too early to be over
And it's way past when
It could be starting again
It's too early to be over
Good hearted Joe is the last one to know

Run down run around biting my tongue
Hardly my sad tale
But the rolling in and steppin' out
Nothing but fun
I finally had to bail
Nothing worse than trying too hard
This ain't this fool's first walk in the park

It's too early to be over
I don't feel a thing from the bone to the skin
It's too early to be over
Good hearted Joe is the last one to know

Somewhere out there it all evens out
So they would have you believe
But that don't get me
That won't set me free

It's too early to be over
And it's way past when it could be starting over
It's too early to be over
Always the fave but I already gave

It's too early to be over
Don't feel a thing from the bone to the skin
It's too early to be over
Good hearted Joe is the last one to know

"Straight From My Heart"

   
The sun's still warm and most days are good
The world still turns like you said it would
But this pain seems to never let me go
And there is really no movin' on
There's only going along

[Chorus:]
And I will always be
Better for you loving me
Better for the times we shared
That travel with me everywhere
And I will always try
To hold my head up to the sky
If only just to let you know
That straight from my heart
I still miss you so

If I could I would gladly trade
A thousand tomorrows for one yesterday
There are so many things that I would say
You're a part of every memory
That lives on in me

[Chorus]

"Nothin' Left To Say"

   
Locked up tight but holdin' the key
Clock keeps tickin' like it's laughin' at me
I wonder
What spell I'm under
Days go by in a pulseless haze
Who's that person that's wearin' my face
Denyin'
What he's hidin'

I can't go on like this
I won't let myself miss the rest of my life

[Chorus:]
When something's come and gone
What good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak
But the words are out of reach
I guess that really means
There's nothin' left to say

I guess we could carry on livin' asleep
Who is the fool who could choose to just keep pretendin'
That this ain't endin'?
I wish you all that I wish for myself
To have that ache of emptiness behind us
And not still inside us

It's time to take that dare
There's still a world out there waitin' for me

[Chorus:]
When something's come and gone
What good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak
But the words are out of reach
I guess that really means
There's nothin' left to say

We did the best we could
Just like we thought we should
But sometimes you've got to just let go

[Chorus:]
When something's come and gone
What good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak
But the words are out of reach
I guess that really means
There's nothin' left to say

There's nothin' left to say
Nothin' left to say

"When You're Gone"

   
Well look at me, the guy who's got it all
Tryin' to read my own writing on the wall
Not happy 'til the sadness comes
To keep me company
Oh, but what becomes of fools who love like me

[Chorus:]
Who's gonna dry my tears
When I'm crying?
Who's gonna hold my hand
When I'm dying?
Who's gonna set me right when
Everything is wrong
Who's gonna love me
When you're gone?

Sure as winter goes and comes around again
I will be my own undoing in the end
I'll find the answers I've been searching for
In your goodbye kiss
'Cause I don't deserve you and you don't deserve this

[Chorus:]
Who's gonna dry my tears
When I'm crying?
And who's gonna hold my hand
When I'm dying?
Who's gonna set me right when
Everything is wrong
Yeah, who's gonna love me
When you're gone?

Never happy 'til the darkness comes
And rains down on me
Down on me

[Chorus:]
And who's gonna dry my tears
When I'm crying?
And who's gonna hold my hand
When I'm dying?
Who's gonna set me right when
Everything is wrong
Who's gonna love me
When you're gone?

Who's gonna love me when you're gone?
Baby when you're gone
Yeah, who's gonna love me
When you're gone?
Who's gonna love me when you're gone?
Who's gonna love me?

"One Thing Left"

   
My life is one big smile
As I cross off the things on my list
The splendor goes on for miles
I don't know what could be left to wish

I'm just living the dream
I do all right if you know what I mean

[Chorus:]
And I've closed the door
And locked it tight
And turned off every single light
Another perfect day is all but through
Now me getting over you
Is the one thing left to do

Yeah, yeah, yeah

The whole world has gone insane
The paper says so every day
And I can always feel the rain
Even when the sun's in the way

Yeah just living the dream
I wish my eyes could forget what they've seen

[Chorus:]
I've closed the door
And locked it tight
And turned off every single light
And walked away just like you asked me to
Now me getting over you
Is the one thing left to do

Yeah I know that it's me who's not well
But there's no one but you I can tell

[Chorus:]
As I close the door
And lock it tight
And turn off every single light
And walk away just like you asked me to
But me getting over you
Is the one thing left to do

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Is the one thing left to do

"Love Goes On"

   
Elusive happiness
Can be like promises
That rest so gently on our pillow
We stood out on the ledge
And leaned over the edge
And nearly fell right through that window

There were those who had us done by now
Baby, we've only just begun

[Chorus:]
The world may crash and burn
Or suddenly just cease to turn
But love goes on
It may look out of reach
And time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on
Our love goes on

No one may recognize
What lives behind our eyes
Sometimes the good times are the hardest
And when my strength is gone
It's you that I lean on
A light at the end of all my darkness

And in the end if I know nothing else
The answer is only in your arms

[Chorus:]
The world may crash and burn
Or suddenly just cease to turn
But love goes on
It may look out of reach
And time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on

And in the end if I know nothing else
The answer is right here in your arms
It's always in your arms

[Chorus:]
The world may crash and burn
Or suddenly just cease to turn
But love goes on
It may look out of reach
And time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on

Oh love goes on

It may look out of reach
And time may rob us like a thief
But love goes on

"Ready To Fly"

   
I've been trying to open the door
To the secret of my destiny
And every new road I think is the one
Seems to lead right back to me

I've looked for a way to be wiser
A way to be strong
Now I see the answer was hiding
In me all along

[Chorus:]
And I'm ready to fly
Over the sun
Like a rocket to heaven
And I'm ready to soar
Right through the sky
Never dreamed I'd find something to lift me so high
I've always had wings
But I wasn't ready to fly

Restless, hopeless, and misunderstood
Like so many others I know
So busy tryin' to keep holdin' on
When I should've been letting go

I was given the gift to find it
The spirit inside me
But I never really imagined
All I could be

[Chorus:]
And I'm ready to fly
Over the sun
Like a rocket to heaven
And I'm ready to soar
Right through the sky
Never dreamed I'd find something to lift me so high
I've always had wings
But I wasn't ready to fly

The answer to all of my wonder
Was right in my hands
Now it's time for me to discover
All that I am

[Chorus:]
And I'm ready to fly
Over the sun
Like a rocket to heaven
And I'm ready to soar
Right through the sky
Never dreamed I'd find something to lift me so high
I've always had wings
But I wasn't ready to fly

I've always had wings
Now I'm finally ready to fly

"Again"

   
There's been no sunlight
Since the day you said goodbye
Since the moment that my life
Turned into a masquerade

I can't even pretend to
Paste a smile across my face
All my dreams have been erased
There's nothing left to save me

[Chorus:]
And you
You're the only one can stop my sky from falling
You're the only one who's name I keep on calling
When everything is closing in
And you
You're the only one can stop this heart from aching
You're the only one who can stop me from shaking
And put me back together
Again

What I'd give just to wake up
And wipe your memory from my eyes
But I can't wish for bluer skies
I've never been quite so hopeless

[Chorus:]
And you
You're the only one can stop my sky from falling
You're the only one who's name I keep on calling
When everything is closing in
And you
You're the only one can stop this heart from aching
You're the only one who can stop me from shaking
And put me back together
Again

And if you stay away
I fear it will all be too much
And if you stay away
I'll be a man who's lost his touch

[Chorus:]
And you
You're the only one can stop my sky from falling
You're the only one who's name I keep on calling
When everything is closing in
And you
You're the only one can stop this heart from aching
You're the only one who can stop me from shaking
And put me back together
Again

Again

"Colder"

   
This is what I should have said
If I'd've been a man about it
You might be in my arms by now
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
As I contemplate the losing
The silence is up way too loud

[Chorus:]
I can't sleep anymore
The words I never said keep turning over
I can't dream like before
And all I seem to be getting is colder

Just like the t-shirt that you wore
You were divine and full of madness
Not really like anyone
In words too beautiful for words
I constructed a soliloquy
That never seemed to reach my tongue
Yeah the air never even filled my lungs

[Chorus:]
I can't sleep anymore
The words I never said keep turning over
I can't dream like before
And all I seem to be getting is colder

All I can think of is
My name on your lips

[Chorus:]
I can't sleep anymore
The words I never said keep turning over
I can't dream like before
And all I seem to be getting is
All I seem to be getting is colder

Colder

"Everything Good"

   
Onward I always say
These things happen everyday
I should be able to smile by now
But I don't remember how

[Chorus:]
With you went warmth in summer
All of the stars in the sky
With you went perfect sunsets
Sleeping my way through the night
Yeah with you went
Everything good in this world

Desperate for your touch
I haven't been needing much
Why let the music play?
I can't hear it anyway

[Chorus:]
'Cause with you went
The scent of flowers
Don't they just die anyway?
And with you went
All the rainbows
Now when it rains it's just gray
Yeah, with you went
Everything good in this world

And I thought of doing something rash
In the hopes of making you feel bad
But it seems that it's always me that ends up cryin'

[Chorus:]
With you went
All the rainbows
Now when it rains it's just gray
Ah, with you went
Everything good

Everything good
In my world
