Paddle to the Stars
02:36

Sometimes I find it kinda hard to tell you,
Even just the simple things.
So let me try to lay it on you,
Baby just in case you’re wondering.
When you get swept away,
I wanna swim to your rescue,
I’ll paddle out into the stars for you.
Drown myself in love (Love! love!),
Heyyy I drown myself in love baby (Love! Love!).
I never worked on it much, so I’m not as in touch,
As you wanted me to be.
Oh, but lately I’m workin’ to draw back the curtain,
Baby just listen to me.
Oh when you get swept away,
I wanna swim to your rescue,
I’ll paddle out into the stars for you.
Drown myself in love baby (Love! love!),
Whoa I’ma drown myself in your love (Love! Love!).
Oooo!
Whoa when you get swept away,
I wanna swim to your rescue,
I’ll paddle out into the stars for you.
Drown myself in love baby (Love! love!),
Whoa! Drownin’, drownin’ in your precious love (Love! Love!),
Your love (Love! Love!).

Sleep On It
03:02
|
|||
|
It’s been a while since we crossed paths,
But I see you in my dreams.
And in my mind there’s a precipice,
Over which my heart careens.
And when I wake I want only
To drift back into slumber.
And wonder baby,
When I’m gonna see you again.
So let me sleep on it,
Baby that’s all I wanna do.
Float down in reverie,
Let me dream only of you.
No you won’t catch me yawnin’ darlin’,
I ain’t no creature of the night.
The Sandman’s a comin’,
And I ain’t gonna put up a fight.
I’m just counting down the hours until I can lay my head to rest.
And dream a dream about you baby,
And your sleepy caress.
So let me sleep on it,
Baby that’s all I wanna do.
Float down in reverie,
Let me dream only of you.
Only of you.
I can’t wait any longer,
Oh just put me under!
So let me sleep on it,
Baby that’s all I wanna do.
Float down in reverie,
Let me dream only of you.
So let me sleep on it,
Baby that’s all I wanna do.
Float down in reverie,
Let me dream only of you.
Only of you.

When You Lose Someone
03:25
|
|||
|
I keep on telling you it’s gonna get better,
Baby ‘cause that’s all I can think to do.
In my experience time heals everything,
But I know that just might not be true.
And my words they don’t mean much anyway,
When you’re dwelling in that particular shade of blue.
Ooh, I can see your sorrow,
I can see your pain.
(What can I say? What can I do?)
Ohhh baby!
(When you lose someone that you love!)
When you lose someone that you really really love.
(When you lose someone that you love!)
Well there’s nothing I can say, there’s nothing I can do.
(When you lose someone that you love!)
Hardest thing in this whole wide world.
(When you lose someone that you love!)
Oh when you lose someone that you love.
I could tell you it’s just part of life,
For every setting sun there’s a break of day.
But I’d be lying right through my teeth,
If I told you I knew why they had to go away.
Some things in this life,
We just ain’t meant to understand.
Just know that I’m here for you,
To help in any way I can.
(What can I say? What can I do?)
When it feels so helpless.
(I’ll be right here, standing by you)
Standing right by your side.
Ohhh baby!
(When you lose someone that you love!)
When you lose someone that you really really love.
(When you lose someone that you love!)
Oh I wanna tell you wanna tell you that I’m so sorry.
(When you lose someone that you love!)
I am here for you if you need me.
(When you lose someone that you love!)
Oh when you lose someone that you love.

Anyway
02:49
|
|||
|
Is that all that you can say to me?
Don’t you think that maybe I deserve a little more?
(For my troubles)
You’re tryin’ to play it off so carelessly,
Almost like it never even happened.
And here comes the part,
Where you break my heart.
And we could try to make amends,
But you’d just do it all over again.
Anyway. Anyway.
As the saying goes, maybe it’s just good money chasin’ bad.
And it’s true that I’ve been had a few times by you.
(Maybe it was more than a few)
But can you blame someone for trying to see the good?
Well baby up ‘til now I could,
But you’ve gone too far now.
Ohhh here comes the part,
Where you break my heart.
And we could try to make amends,
But you’d just do it all over again.
I know I gotta let you go for good!
Ohh I know I gotta let you go for good!
Ohh yes I do, I gotta let you go for good!
Anyway. Anyway.

(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
Well another year came and went,
I came up with another twelve months of rent.
I paid my taxes but some rules were bent,
I didn’t spend a single dollar I didn’t need to spend but they tell me.
(How can you go when you know that you might fall behind?)
I don’t care if I do, I’m taking some time,
I gotta get lost ‘fore I lose my mind.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
I think I need a vacation.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
I need a vacation baby.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
Beat down, boy I’m feeling rough,
Somebody tap me out ‘cause I have had enough.
Why do I feel like this is all for nothin’?
Start the countdown I’ma push the red button.
(How do you know that you won’t regret it some day?)
I don’t care if I do, I’m taking some time,
I gotta get lost ‘fore I lose my mind.
I think I need a vacation.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
Ohh I think I need a vacation baby yes I do.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
How do we measure the life of a person?
Surely not by the money they earn.
You will get burned if you’re stuck there workin’,
On somebody else’s terms ooh ooh.
Ohhh I need a vacation yeah.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
I need to take a vacation baby.
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo! Ahh! Hah! Vacation vacation!)
(Hoo!)

Real Contender
03:21
|
|||
|
How they hang around,
Like echoes in a chamber.
Floating in and out,
From minor into major.
Wanted you to feel like you could really trust me but maybe,
I just don’t deserve it.
But when you think it through,
I’m hoping that you,
Realize that I have always been beside you.
Sand between our fingers,
Time is always movin’ along.
(Here and then it’s gone)
I wanna be a real contender,
Whether you see it or not.
I know it’s in there,
Somewhere this thing that we got.
For once in my life I am sure of something,
For once in my life I am sure of something.
I know my eyes deceive a brief and fleeting failure,
They want what they don’t need,
I try to see it clearer.
Changin’ of the seasons,
Time is always creepin’ along.
(Here and then it’s gone)
I wanna be a real contender,
Whether you see it or not.
I know it’s in there,
Somewhere this thing that we got.
For once in my life I am sure of something,
For once in my life I am sure of...
Something there I should’ve noticed yesterday
But now my heart won’t let me see it any other way.
So I wanna be a real contender,
Whether you see it or not.
I know it’s in there,
Somewhere this thing that we got.
For once in my life I am sure of something,
For once in my life I am sure of something.
For once in my life I am sure of something,
For once in my life I am sure of something.

If it feels like the world is burnin’ down,
It’s ‘cause it is.
If it feels like there’s something goin’ around,
It’s ‘cause there is.
If it tastes like there’s poison in the water,
It’s ‘cause there is.
And it seems like the signs are gettin’ stronger,
So you need to ask yourself again...
How can it be, do my eyes deceive me?
Something’s amiss, something ain’t right.
Just when the time to fight was upon us,
No one showed up, no, hear not a sound.
If it feels like the temperature is rising,
It’s ‘cause it is.
And there’s bound to be a change on the horizon,
So you need to ask yourself again...
How can it be, do my eyes deceive me?
Something’s amiss, something ain’t right.
Just when the time to fight was upon us,
No one showed up, no, hear not a sound.
How can it be, do my eyes deceive me?
Something’s amiss, baby something ain’t right.
Just when the time to fight was upon us,
No one showed up, no, hear not a sound.
(Ooh! Ooh!)
Ohh oh how can it be, do my eyes deceive me?
Something’s amiss, baby something ain’t right.
Just when the time to fight was upon us,
No one showed up, no, hear not a sound.
(Feel’s like the world’s burnin’ down!)
Oh burnin’ down.
(Feel’s like there’s something goin’ around!)
Something goin’ around.
(Feel’s like the temperature is rising!)
Higher, higher, higher, higher.
(Got to be a change on the horizon!)
Got to be a change.
(Feel’s like the world’s burnin’ down!)
‘Cause it is.
(Feel’s like there’s something goin’ around!)
(Seems like the signs are gettin’ stronger!)
(Can’t stand on the side any longer!)

Eye to Eye
03:22
|
|||
|
Stones have been thrown,
Bones have been broken.
Took me apart,
Cracked it wide open.
It’s just a shot in the dark (a spark),
Like smoke into a chimney.
Maybe your promises were empty,
Or maybe we don’t see the same point of view.
And all I wanna do is see eye to eye to eye to
I can’t seem to agree and I can’t see why.
Eye to eye to eye to eye.
Left on the vine,
The fruits of our labor.
And love fades away,
Sooner or later.
It’s just a glimmer in the sky (a cry),
Like whispers in a hailstorm.
What exactly did we run from?
Or maybe we just needed someone to run to.
And all I wanna do is see eye to eye to eye to
I can’t seem to agree and I can’t see why.
Eye to eye to eye to
I can’t seem to agree and I can’t see why.
(Eye to eye, ooo!)
(Eye to eye, ooo!)
(Eye to eye, ooo!)
(Eye to eye, ooo!)

Apollonia

I woke to see your tail lights disappear,
Into the misty morning fog.
And before I had my boots on,
You were ten miles down the road.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re searching for.
Apollonia!
‘Cause no man can love you more.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re hoping to find.
‘Cause in the meantime I am losing my mind without you,
Apollonia.
Thought you came back home for good this time around,
But it’s clear I was mistaken.
The tire tracks that you painted on the ground,
Tell the story of my poor heart breakin’.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re searching for.
Apollonia!
‘Cause no man can love you more.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re hoping to find.
‘Cause in the meantime I am losing my mind without you,
Apollonia.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re searching for.
Apollonia!
‘Cause no man can love you more.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re searching for.
Apollonia!
‘Cause no man can love you more.
Apollonia!
Tell me what you’re hoping to find.
‘Cause in the meantime I am losing my mind without you,
Apollonia.

Forget About It
04:03
|

|
Might as well forget about it,
Might as well forget about it.
Might as well forget about it,
Might as well forget about it.
Thought you had a good thing cooking,
The future was looking good.
But the rules were meant to be broken so you
Might as well forget about it,
Might as well forget about it.
Might make out pretty good on this one,
And you sure could use a win.
But it’s over before it begins and you know it is.
You can save all your coupons and it still won’t do no good,
‘Cause the top’s got the bottom exactly where they want ‘em yeah.
(Might as well forget about it),
(Might as well forget about it).
Yeah you might as well forget about it,
Might as well forget about it.
Said you want to go into teaching,
And try to school the youth on the truth.
But you can’t find the money for the books so you
Might as well forget about it,
Might as well forget about it.
The cold truth is that it’s all by design,
The rich get richer and the rest just get by.
Grovel at the bottom got us workin’ ourselves to the bone.
You can save all your coupons and it still won’t do no good,
‘Cause the top’s got the bottom exactly where they want ‘em.
Might as well forget about it,
‘Cause there ain’t much we can do about it.
Might as well forget about it,
Might as well ho hoo.
(Put your mind somewhere else),
Oh!
(Your people, your health).
People!
(Just live your life),
Live your life!
(And try to live it true).
Try to live it true! Hey yeah!
(Put your mind somewhere else),
Somewhere!
(Your people, your health).
Your people!
(Just live your life),
Live your life!
(And try to live it true).
And try to live it true! Ohhhh!
(Put your mind somewhere else),
Put it somewhere else!
(Your people, your health).
(Just live your life),
(And try to live it true).
Try to live a, try to live a good life for your people and yourself!
(Put your mind somewhere else),
Help one another!
(Your people, your health).
Be good to one anonother!
(Just live your life),
(And try to live it true).
And try to live it true! Hey!
