So Far Away

Far away

So far away

You've been so far

For far too long

My baby

Nights are passin' and the days are wearin'

And all I can do is miss you

Miss your pleasures, your promises of forever

And then how you spend so much time telling me it's true

And I laugh 'cause you're so funny

Acting so cute around me with that playful little tone

And that funny accent

And that puppy face

You blow me away

Far away

So far away

You've been so far

For far too long

My baby

It's Friday night, I'm watchin' movies late

“Message in a Bottle”, where they lean for a kiss

And the tears begin to build so quickly in my eyes

Because all of the memories of you and I are so far behind

And I cry 'cause she's so happy

And you're somewhere out there without me

And I wish I was with you

I wish it were true

That you'd miss me as much too

Far away

So far away

You've been so far

For far too long

My baby

I don't know what to do

To keep me from missing you

Can't turn on the radio 'cause they only play our songs

Can't watch t.v.

Without something to remind me

How much I've been needing you all along

Can't go outside

'Cause I see them all holding hands tight

And I find myself wanting you with all my might

Can't stay at home

'Cause then I'm all alone

And all I can think of is you filling in those empty spaces

(Guitar)

Far away

So far away

You've been so far

For far too long

My baby

(x1)

You've been so far for far too long...

I Miss Ya

The fire's burning, the stars are alight

Isn't it such a beautiful night

But I know you're just looking at her

Aren't ya?

The ocean hums, the sand is soft

Isn't this such a sweet place to walk

But I know you're standing by her

Aren't ya?

Oh, how I miss ya

I miss ya

I really miss ya

Oh, I miss ya

The clouds make shapes in the sky

Isn't it funny how it seems they come to life

But I know you're just laughing with her

Aren't ya?

The candles are lit and the music plays

Isn't it so romantic how they sway

But I know you're holding her close and dancing

Aren't ya?

Oh, how I miss ya

I miss ya

I really miss ya

Oh, I miss ya

The sun shines and the world is bright

But somehow I am still not in your sight

I've stood in the way of your eyes

But you don't see me, do ya?

I've touched your shoulder, called your name

But you just react the same

As if I'm not there

You don't hear me at all, do ya?

I've grabbed your hand, pulled you from her

But you went right back and it hurt

To know you still don't know it was me

Do ya?

I've stood in front of you, tears on my face

And it stings that you see through me

My heart keeps on screaming but you don't hear

Do ya?

Oh, how I miss ya

I miss ya

I really miss ya

Oh, I miss ya

Don't you see me right beside you

Don't you hear me, I'm right by you

But to you now I am invisible

Oh, to you now I am invisible

Oh, how I miss ya

I miss ya

I really miss ya

Oh, I miss ya

Tear Me Apart

How long has it been?

All I know is that it's been too long

With you I could stand

But now I am not strong

I can't even get out of bed

Without using whatever's left of me

I used to know the world so beautiful

But now I can't see

Has insanity taken me again

Like the time before when she broke my heart

You have won me over with your sweet love

But now all you do is tear me apart

I pace the house every evening

My thoughts all of you as always

My body's tired, my head is drained

Living through these lonely days

I can't help to wish after all you've done

To have you back in my arms

Because the mornings and nights aren't the same

When you're so far

Has insanity taken me again

Like the time before when she broke my heart

You have won me over with your sweet love

But now all you do is tear me apart

And now I'm fallin', cryin', missin' you

Like never before

Hopin', wishin', pleadin'

I see you again

Just for a moment, if that's all it can last

Despite the pain you've inflicted on me

Won't you please come back

Back to me

Or am I just lost in insanity

Again

(Guitar)

And now I'm fallin', cryin', missin' you

Like never before

Hopin', wishin', pleadin'

I see you again

Has insanity taken me again

Like the time before when she broke my heart

You have won me over with your sweet love

But now all you do is tear me apart

(x2)

Now all you do is tear me apart

One Moment In Time

I can't walk New York City streets anymore

I can't go where poverty still reigns

Because I've never felt so torn before

When I see just one tear I feel too much pain

But it doesn't take a tear to get me hurting this bad

It doesn't take a frown to make me feel this way

It takes just the thought of the life they could've had

And how while the ignorant speak they cannot say

Open your eyes

See all that's become

Spread your arms wide

And embrace all who still run

Far from the shadow

Of misfortune close behind

Could you open your hearts for just

One moment in time

I can't visit the culture of India beyond this day

I can't visit much of Europe where it stands

Because such cruelty, pure darkness added to the bright rays

Is deserved by no beast or any man nor Mother Nature's lands

But it doesn't take bloodshed to get me hurt this bad

It doesn't take a scorched forest to make me feel this way

It takes just the thought of the life they could've had

And how while the ignorant speak that cannot say

Open your eyes

See all that's become

Spread your arms wide

And embrace all who still run

Far from the shadow

Of misfortune close behind

Could you open your hearts for just

One moment in time

The difference it would make

If we spared one breath

One smile, one word

Hope...

Home

Joy

Love

If we could give

And soon when all has fallen

When tears flood the streets

Will we wait till then to regret it all

Will we then realize the truth of reality

Until then I have no home

Until then I am alone

And I speak for all who share this pain with me

If only we could spare

One moment in time

Eternally

Stop in your tracks, baby

Don't you take another step

I know I've been messin' up lately

But we can make this better yet

Just give me one more chance

I know it's a lot to ask

But without you in my life

I'd never ever last

'Cause you're a big part of me

You are my eyes to see

You're the only one who can set me free

I want you stay with me

Eternally

I'll love you for all eternity

And if I hurt you internally

Please forgive me

Because I wanna be there for you

I want what we share to be true

I want it so when I hold you

When I kiss you

When I breathe you

I know I need you

I do

Eternally

Eternally

Eternally

Eternally

Turn around and look at this face

It's full of regret and apology

Can you see the tears hot in my eyes

I can't bear to have you away from me

Please give me one more moment

Please give me one more try

To show you how much you mean to me

And that without you I'd die

'Cause you are what makes me

You're a part of me indefinitely

You're the only one who can make me happy

I want you to stay with me

Eternally

I'll love you for all eternity

And if I hurt you internally

Please forgive me

Because I wanna be there for you

I want what we share to be true

I want it so when I hold you

When I kiss you

When I breathe you

I know I need you

I do

Eternally

Eternally

Eternally

Eternally

With my every heartbeat I think of you

Knowing that you are my dream come true

So indescribable what you do to me

Whatever I did to you hurt you, I'm so sorry

But baby please don't leave me

I need you more than air, please believe me

I can't live without you

I know, I tried

Two seconds after you left I thought I'd died

The pain is unbelievable

I need you by my side

I'll throw away all of the jewels

And hush my pride

Anything for you, let me know

But whatever you do please don't go

'Cause I want you to stay with me

Eternally

I'll love you for all eternity

And if I hurt you internally

Please forgive me

Because I wanna be there for you

I want what we share to be true

I want it so when I hold you

When I kiss you

When I breathe you

I know I need you

I do

Eternally

Eternally

Eternally

Eternally

(x2)

I know I need you

Eternally

Fallen Angel

All these faces in the crowd

All these people here

How many have the time to listen

To hear of my worries and my every fear

They've got their own places to go

Got their things to do

Tight on schedule

I'm a little girl walking around

Tapping peoples' shoulders

All I get is a shrug

And then I'm shoved to the ground

But just as it seems the light will go out

Just as it seems all hope is gone

Just as the tears are about to fall

I feel a hand grasp mine

And I look up in the eyes of a fallen angel

I look up at a smile that brightens the world

I look up at a face that glows like the full moon in the dark midnight

And he's holding my hand helping me to stand

He's pulling me into his protective arms

And he wipes my tears and kisses me in the golden light

But when I open my eyes he's gone

My fallen angel has left for Heaven

So many pains and pressures

From this strange life

Sometimes you can't help to feel alone

Turning each corner to another surprise

Some make you fly, some make you fall

You find yourself wishing

There was an easier way out

But it's not true when you hear them say

Making it on your own is what this is all about

I was fooled, fell in a current and drifted away

But just as it seems the light will go out

Just as it seems all hope is gone

Just as the tears are about to fall

I feel a hand grasp mine

And I look up in the eyes of a fallen angel

I look up at a smile that brightens the world

I look up at a face that glows like the full moon in the dark midnight

And he's holding my hand helping me to stand

He's pulling me into his protective arms

And he wipes my tears and kisses me in the golden light

But when I open my eyes he's gone

My fallen angel has left for Heaven

No matter where I go

(Wherever I stray)

I know he'll be there

(To always guide me)

No matter how hard I fall

(I know he'll always be near)

To help me pick up the pieces

(And dry my tears)

My angel don't go...

I love you so

(Guitar and flute)

Just as it seems the light will go out

(The lights go out)

Just as it seems all hope is gone

(All hope is gone)

Just as the tears are about to fall

(The tears are about to fall)

I feel a hand grasp mine

(I feel his hand grasp mine)

And I look up in the eyes of a fallen angel

(My fallen angel)

I look up at a smile that brightens the world

(His smile brightens the world)

I look up at a face that glows like the full moon in the dark midnight

(His face glows like the moon)

And he's holding my hand helping me to stand

(He's holding on to me)

He's pulling me into his protective arms

(I'm in his arms)

And he wipes my tears and kisses me in the golden light

(He wipes away my tears and kisses me)

I look up in the eyes of a fallen angel

(A fallen angel)

I look up at a smile that brightens the world

(Brightens the world)

I look up at a face that glows like the full moon in the dark midnight

(The dark midnight)

And he's holding my hand helping me to stand

(Helping me to stand)

He's pulling me into his protective arms

(His protective arms)

And he wipes my tears and kisses me in the golden light

(In the golden light)

But when I open my eyes he's gone

My angel don't go...

I love you so

Cell Phone

C-c-cell phone

We talkin' on the

C-c-cell phone

Yeah, that's right, we on the

C-c-cell phone

Ay, baby

I was feelin' kinda lonely sittin' at home

Nobody for me to talk to

So I took my keys, hopped in my ride

The whole time I was thinkin' of you

Didn't know where I was goin'

Decided to pull over at the park

Listened to my music, read some comics

And after awhile I was alone in the dark

And then I heard my phone ring

(Phone ring)

And my pocket started vibrating

(Vibrating)

I took it out, saw your name on the ID

(ID)

Opened it and said, “Hello?”

That's when I heard you say

“Hey, baby. What you doin' now...Are ya missin' me?”

And I said “Yes, I'll confess. You still got my heart beatin' outta my chest.”

I heard you laugh and I smiled

This conversation lasted for a long, long while

And I felt different than before

'Cause I'm not lonely anymore

When we're on the

C-c-cell phone

We talkin' on the

C-c-cell phone

Yeah, that's right, we on the

C-c-cell phone

Ay, baby

Hangin' with my homies at the club

Hittin' the beats, dancin' till we fall to the floor

We all havin' so much fun, baby

But why is it I am just missin' you more?

Changin' my clothes, gettin' ready for bed

Sittin' on the edge while my records play

I'm startin' to feel hollow again

That's how it gets when we're far away

And then I heard my phone ring

(Phone ring)

And my pocket started vibrating

(Vibrating)

I took it out, saw your name on the ID

(ID)

Opened it and said, “Hello?”

That's when I heard you say

“Hey, baby. What you doin' now...Are ya missin' me?”

And I said “Yes, I'll confess. You still got my heart beatin' outta my chest.”

I heard you laugh and I smiled

When we're on the

C-c-cell phone

We talkin' on the

C-c-cell phone

Yeah, that's right, we on the

C-c-cell phone

Ay, baby

Please don't hang up, never never

Love you my sweetheart, always and forever

Please don't say goodbye, I can't bear it

Anything you have to say, please won't you share it?

Call me up anytime, you know I love your voice

If I had to choose anyone, you know you'd be my first choice

Please talk to me baby, without you I'm alone

Let's talk all day and night up on the telephone

And then I heard my phone ring

(Phone ring)

And my pocket started vibrating

(Vibrating)

I took it out, saw your name on the ID

(ID)

Opened it and said, “Hello?”

That's when I heard you say

(x2)

Ay, baby

Stop

Don't ask questions like that

Do you even know what you're saying?

If it's a joke it's not funny

Come on boy, stop you're playing

I'm just gonna walk the other way

If you don't quit your lines

Yesterday you were different

But today you don't seem fine

What's goin' on?

Why are you trying to make me feel so uncomfortable?

I don't like this situation

There must be something wrong

'Cause you're buildin' on my frustration

Please end it now

I'm getting' all kind of impatient

Please stop, stop, stop

End it before I do

Please stop, stop, stop

What's gotten into you?

Please stop, stop, stop

Don't hurt me inside

You better stop right now

Before I walk out of your life

Your words put pressure on me

I can't even think clear

Just tryin' to watch the sunrise

But you come and raise my fear

You smile every time you say it

Like everything will be ok and alright

But you haunt me like a shadow

In the dark depths of the night

What's goin' on?

Why are you trying to make me feel so uncomfortable?

I don't like this situation

There must be something wrong

'Cause you're buildin' on my frustration

Please end it now

I'm getting' all kind of impatient

Please stop, stop, stop

End it before I do

Please stop, stop, stop

What's gotten into you?

Please stop, stop, stop

Don't hurt me inside

You better stop right now

Before I walk out of your life

Don't scare me like that again

Don't put me on the edge

What has gotten in to you?

I miss my old friend

I need him back now

Before I send the whole package away

I want this person you have become to go

And the person you were to stay

So please stop doing this to me

Please don't go over the top

I'm askin' you, I'm needin' you to

Please just stop

What's goin' on?

Why are you trying to make me feel so uncomfortable?

I don't like this situation

There must be something wrong

'Cause you're buildin' on my frustration

Please end it now

I'm getting' all kind of impatient

What's goin' on?

Why are you trying to make me feel so uncomfortable?

I don't like this situation

There must be something wrong

'Cause you're buildin' on my frustration

Please end it now

I'm getting' all kind of impatient

Please stop, stop, stop

End it before I do

(End it before I do)

Please stop, stop, stop

What's gotten into you?

(Oh, boy, what's gotten into you?)

Please stop, stop, stop

Don't hurt me inside

(Na da da da, don't hurt me now)

You better stop right now

(You better stop, you better stop)

Before I walk out of your life

(Before I walk out of your life)

What's goin' on?

Why are you trying to make me feel so uncomfortable?

I don't like this situation

'Cause you're buildin' on my frustration

(Repeats until fades)

Don't Call Again

Woke up this morning to an early sunrise

Turned around noticed you weren't by my side

I call your name but nobody will answer

Oooh

Runnin' into every room to check if you're there

But I find nothing

Baby, this ain't fair

Where you gone 'cause I'm missin' you already?

I pick up my phone and dial your number

Again, nobody answers

So I be patient and then it gets to the answering machine and it says

If this is who I think it is

Don't call again

Don't you go lookin' for me

I've found what I've been searchin' for all eternity

And yes, it ain't you

And yes, it'll never be you

I'm happy where I am

Don't call again

I slump down on the bed, my face frozen

I want to cry

'Cause I don't know what I didn't do to be enough for your life

I look at your picture and it hurts now

I look around to see if you left anything behind

But it looks like all you left was a piece of your mind

What about a piece of your heart?

Oooh

I pick up my phone and dial your number

Again, nobody answers

So I be patient and then it gets to the answering machine and it says

If this is who I think it is

Don't call again

Don't you go lookin' for me

I've found what I've been searchin' for all eternity

And yes, it ain't you

And yes, it'll never be you

I'm happy where I am

Don't call again

I swear I thought I did everything for you

I thought I gave everything to you

Whatever you asked for, whatever you needed

Was yours there and then, baby

I don't know what I did

I went beyond my limits to see you smile

But it only lasted for awhile

Now what do I do

I still have your number

I still have your number

I still have your number

Baby, I do

I pick up my phone and dial your number

Again, nobody answers

So I be patient and then it gets to the answering machine and it says

If this is who I think it is

Don't call again

Don't you go lookin' for me

I've found what I've been searchin' for all eternity

Not Much Different

I'm not normal, then what is?

You say it so many times, yet you can't explain it

What about me makes me so different from you

That gives you a reason to shun me and hurt me too?

If I walk up to you and talk another way

If I know another language and my favorite color is gray

Does that mean I'm an outcast in your eyes?

Does that mean I'm a beast inside?

You treat me like I'm worthless

Treat me like I'm no one

But I'm not much different from you

You say I deserve to be alone

That I can look but I'll never find a home

But I'm

I'm not much different from you

I know I like different kinds of food from you

I like to try a new way, to make my wildest dreams come true

I'm a different figure from your average day ideal

I go for the heart and not always the aesthetic appeal

I make a new creation, but why must you bite?

Your glares, your fists, and your words like knives

Is it because your reflection is different from mine?

Do you know how much you're eating me inside?

You treat me like I'm worthless

Treat me like I'm no one

But I'm not much different from you

You say I deserve to be alone

That I can look but I'll never find a home

But I'm

I'm not much different from you

You push me into the corner

Shove me on the side of the street

Weave your way like a snake attacking me

'Cause you say I'm different

But we both now at the end of the day

We're pretty much the same

And what's the world without variety?

Oooh

I'm not much different from you

You treat me like I'm worthless

Treat me like I'm no one

But I'm not much different from you

You say I deserve to be alone

That I can look but I'll never find a home

But I'm

I'm not much different from you

(X2)

I'm not much different from you
