The coolest thing I have ever seen were your eyes on the movie screen Then I heard that voice in Dolby sound, it touched a place I had never found I close my eyes, I see your face, nothing’s gonna take it away Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s all I do, oh-oh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s what I do, oh-oh You’re beautiful, all those things you say, it’s magical, how it goes away I’m coming back with a ticket to a miracle surrounding you I close my eyes, I see your face, nothing’s gonna take it away Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s all I do, oh-oh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s what I do, oh-oh Opening scenes, those magazines, everywhere I go It flickers and fades most of the day; I don’t want to go back to the life I know… I’m gonna fade with you, it’s all I do, oh-oh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s what I do, oh-oh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s all I do, oh-oh I’m gonna fade with you, it’s what I do, oh-oh

You shimmer and glow How would I know? It’s out of my bed With stars in my head Yeah, your low rider jeans And things in between I’ve waited a long, long time If you know what I mean It’s out of my hands and it out of control The picture is ripped and the stories been told How you shimmer and glow For 3.95, I came alive I waited all day my love Just to get it right Yeah, I know what you mean I read what they said How would they know your life? Or what’s in your head It’s out of my hands and it out of control The picture is ripped and the stories been told How you shimmer and glow (solo) (breakdown) You shimmer and glow

I wanna buy me a bike, and ride away I’ve got some money that I have saved And I’m ok, no, I won’t be late I don’t want to talk, talk about it The way I figure, this is shit And I’m ok, no, I won’t be late All of my life you make me sing, sing, sing And all of my life you’re a part of me It’s a bitter sweet thing, sweet Marie This could be it, this could be real Or it could be way overkill It’s a walk in the park on a cloudy day This could be wild, this could be fun Or it could be way overdone I don’t care. I don’t care what they say All of my life you make me sing, sing, sing All of my life you’re a part of me It’s a bitter sweet thing, sweet Marie All of my life I’ve was singin’ your songs All of my life you were singin’ along It’s a bitter sweet thing, sweet Marie (solo) I know you put your trust in me I know, I know, I know you sing my songs I hope you sing along All of my life you make me sing, sing, sing All of my life you’re a part of me It’s a bittersweet thing, yeah All of my life I’ve was singin’ your songs All of my life you were singin’ along It’s a bitter sweet thing, sweet Marie Sweet Marie, sweet Marie, sweet Marie

Since you’ve been gone I dug out the eight tracks Listened to the playbacks, those country songs Since I set you free, I eat at that café The one where we made history It’s not that I feel half alive that makes me so crazy inside I’m sober and afraid I’m doing it the wrong way Nothing like a heartache, constantly Stupid things they say, calling me a sell out I just got the hell out of those games It’s not that I feel half alive that makes me so crazy inside It’s not that you needed the time Here comes the light (guitar solo) It’s not that I feel half alive that makes me so crazy inside It’s not that you needed the time Here comes the light, here comes the light Here comes the light, I’ve been waiting for Here comes the light, here comes the light Here comes the light, I’ve been prayin’ for

Guess I’ll cancel that trip for two Hike my ass down the Avenue And dial your number again Maybe I’ll come in another life I’ll come back and get it right I will know you again Then I come into another day The sun rises and it feels ok To run my circle again Maybe I never told you, my love has no end Baby, I never owned you or tried to pretend It’s just me running in circles again Are you coming with me? Are you gonna save my soul? Are you coming with me? If so, then when? (solo) Maybe I never told you, my love has no end Baby, I never owned you or tried to pretend It’s just me running in circles It’s just me running in circles This is me running in circles… again

Oh baby, it’s a country song to tell you I was wrong It’s been too long, I’d love it if you just come home Don’t feel like a rocker tonight, coffee w/ cream, maybe a camel light It was a hell of a fight, three long years between my heart and mind I think I’m gonna cry… Oh baby, it’s a country song to tell you I was wrong It’s been too long, I’d love it if you just come home Oh baby, it’s a country song moving right along I sing it all day long, I’d love it if you just come home (Whirlitzer solo) Wood panel, this place is so old Apartment F, that’s just about right you know I pray angels and light, I gave you up On my knees in the middle of the night I think I’m gonna cry… Oh baby, it’s a country song to tell you I was wrong It’s been too long, I’d love it if you just came home Oh baby, it’s a country song moving right along I sing it all day long, I’d love it if you just come home I’d love it if you just come home I’d love it if you just come home I’d love it if you just come home

Move Me 02:44
lyrics
buy track
Are you gonna drink? Are you gonna hit her again? Don’t you ever think, it can get better than this? I’m a little broken dream; there was nothing to believe The say God can move mountains, why won’t you move me? I’m digging’ through the past looking at the mess I made Through the blood and the glass, there’s nothing left to save Why can’t I believe? It’s bigger than me… The say God can move mountains, why won’t you move me? It’s silly and it’s sad, how I fell apart I’m learning what I have, is a pretty good start And I want to believe, so openly

Starbeams and satellites Up in the sky, take me home I fear they don’t want me here And I always feel left all alone Tonight I’m gonna save the world Tonight I’ll be more than a girl Tonight I’ll be someone That you won’t recognize It’s just like it is in my dream Just like I knew it could be Enough of the pain I try so hard to change And I believe The cargo door opens wide And I can see the fear in their eyes I know that, it’s no big surprise But tonight my ship will come in Tonight I’ll be more than a friend Tonight I’ll be someone That you won’t recognize It’s just like it is in my dream Just like I knew it could be Enough of the pain I try so hard to change And I believe (solo) It’s just like it is in my dream Just like I knew it could be Enough of the pain I try so hard to change And I believe
