Someday I'll Run Away


Slumped on the corner

West Boulevard Street

Did you even remember

Or did you forget me

I know it's so easy for you to

Push me aside

You've done it so many times

All my life


Watching the cars go by

Lights on bright

Sun's down and the moon is up

Time for night

Still looking at my watch

And all I do is heave a sigh

You've done it again

Left me here and went


I'm alone in your care

Push me around so unaware

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

I'm alone every day

Shunned by you and every word you say

Always leaving me

Someday I'll run away


Rain starts to pour

Lightening strikes

Thunder begins roars

Mist blinds my sight

I move beneath a canopy

My blood will freeze

Wondering if you'll even bother

To come for me


Shuddering in my wet clothes

Holding my knees tight

The wind howls

And I can't help to cry

Whenever I am afraid

There's no one there

To let me know it'll be ok

There's no one to save me


I'm alone in your care

Push me around so unaware

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

I'm alone every day

Shunned by you and every word you say

Always leaving me

Someday I'll run away


Far away

Far away

Where I won't be locked in this cage

I'll be free to find my way

And I won't be sitting on the side

Waiting for you to tear my life

To hurt my heart

Like the way you do now

I'll be far away

(Far away)

So far away

(Far away)

I'm going to run away

So I won't be alone anymore


(Guitar solo)


Slumped on the corner

Watching the cars go by

Rain starts to pour

I'm shuddering in my wet clothes


(Pause)


I'm alone in your care

(I'm alone)

Push me around so unaware

(So unaware)

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

(You wouldn't know)

I'm alone every day

(I'm alone)

Shunned by you and every word you say

(Every word you say)

Always leaving me

(Always leaving me)

Someday I'll run away


I'm alone in your care

Push me around so unaware

I could be gone you wouldn't know I'm not there

I'm alone every day

Shunned by you and every word you say

Always leaving me

Someday I'll run away

(x2)

Someday I'll run away

A Dream Come True


Soft, sweet beauty you look so good tonight

Is it that glow in your face or the shine your eyes?

Or the way you look at me and I can't breathe

There's no air, you've taken it from me


I see the way you move and my body freezes

And when you look up at me in question I fall to pieces

Can you mend me back together, I've lost all strength

You are my one and only weakness again


You're so beautiful

A dream come true

I become breathless

When I'm near you

You're like a sweet fantasy

Became my reality

If I open my eyes

Will you still be there


When you part your blushing lips to speak

I feel my stomach clench so tight inside of me

I want to hear you and only you ever

With your smooth, silk voice melting my soul forever


With your heart so sweet and caring beyond compare

I reach out to Heaven and you take me there

To a place where I can only see you

You're my perfect angel and my lifelong wish too


You're so beautiful

A dream come true

I become breathless

When I'm near you

You're like a sweet fantasy

Became my reality

If I open my eyes

Will you still be there


If you were to ever leave me

I'd die inside that very moment

I don't need air like I need you

I can't lose you now

My every hope, my deepest desire

I wish you knew you mean everything to me


You're so beautiful

(You're so beautiful)

A dream come true

(A dream come true)

I become breathless

(I become breathless)

When I'm near you

(When I'm near you)

You're like a sweet fantasy

(Like a sweet fantasy)

Became my reality

(Became my reality)

If I open my eyes

Will you still be there


You're so beautiful

A dream come true

I become breathless

When I'm near you

You're like a sweet fantasy

Became my reality

If I open my eyes

Will you still be there


If I open my eyes

Will you still be there

For Now You'll Dream


You're looking out your window again

I know you'd rather be somewhere else

Spending time wandering in your dream land

Sweet peace all to yourself


Walking amongst all you wished for

Feeling the breeze so soft and fine

The warmth of the sun caresses you

And you'll just keep passing time


But for now you'll dream

Of a world only you can reach

Grasping stars in your palms

Seeing all you could ever want

Flying high without reason why

Swimming low beneath the deep midnight

Walking on clouds drifting in the sky

Finding the place where your heart lies


You see the world beneath your gaze

And you wonder what lies in the world beyond

Somewhere so far away

Where hate and love would be one


Your deepest desires to be carefree

Where darkness is kind and light is sweet

Where you feel no sorrows and no pain

Where blossoming life and beauty is all you see


But for now you'll dream

Of a world only you can reach

Grasping stars in your palms

Seeing all you could ever want

Flying high without reason why

Swimming low beneath the deep midnight

Walking on clouds drifting in the sky

Finding the place where your heart lies


And someday when a shooting star comes by

Be sure to make a wish

That one day this dream will come to life

And you will wander on in eternal bliss

And that reality and fantasy

Will be your every truth

If you believe, have hope, have faith

Nothing is stopping you


But for now you'll dream

(But for now you'll dream)

Of a world only you can reach

Grasping stars in your palms

(Grasping stars in your palms)

Seeing all you could ever want

Flying high without reason why

Swimming low beneath the deep midnight

Walking on clouds drifting in the sky

Finding the place where your heart lies


But for now you'll dream

Of a world only you can reach

Grasping stars in your palms

Seeing all you could ever want

Flying high without reason why

Swimming low beneath the deep midnight

Walking on clouds drifting in the sky

Finding the place where your heart lies

But for now you'll dream


Just for now you'll dream...

I Will Wait A Lifetime


Walking along on the quiet road
Listening to the cars go
Thinking about how you looked last night
Wishing you were in my arms tonight


Turning the corner onto another street
Hoping the time comes soon when we meet
I will confess all my secrets to you
I'll appreciate everything you do


It's a shame that you're so far away
And it hurts even to this day
I don't have you to look my way
And that's why I'm here to say...


I will wait a lifetime for you to come back to me
I will wait a lifetime just to get you to see
That I appreciate
That I hope it's not too late
To say I do
To say that I love you


The shopkeepers turn their lights out
I keep on looking about
Seeing a boy and thinking it's you
But there's no such thing as one face being two


Motorcycles driving way too fast
Reminding me of the past
When we'd say what they do is wrong
Holding hands all along


It's a shame that you're so far away
And it hurts even to this day
I don't have you to look my way
And that's why I'm here to say...


I will wait a lifetime for you to come back to me
I will wait a lifetime just to get you to see
That I appreciate
That I hope it's not too late
To say I do
To say that I love you


I will wait a lifetime
I will love you forever
The day that I forget you
Will be never
And I know that I'll always be thankful
For everything
You've given me


And I will wait a lifetime for you to come back to me
I will wait a lifetime just to get you to see
That I appreciate
That I hope it's not too late
To say I do
To say that I love you

I will wait a lifetime...for you.

Even If It Hurts Me


I'm starting to question myself

Baby, please don't ask why

'Cause I want to tell you

But it's a secret I can only hide


If you knew how I felt

Every time we're together

I know what you would do

Pack your bags and leave forever


Can't risk that

Can't risk you

Even if it hurts my heart

There's nothing that makes me want to cry more

Than when we're apart


So even if it hurts me

Even if I die

As long as you're beside me

The rest of my life

As long as I know you're happy

Even if it's not with me

I promise you I'll be smiling


I wish you knew that

When you look at me

I get butterflies

They dance so endlessly


And when you're close

And you touch my skin

I wish I could confess

Everything within


Can't risk that

Can't risk you

Even if it hurts my heart

There's nothing that makes me want to cry more

Than when we're apart


So even if it hurts me

Even if I die

As long as you're beside me

The rest of my life

As long as I know you're happy

Even if it's not with me

I promise you I'll be smiling


When you look at her

And smile like you know she's the one

(She's the one)

When you kiss her

Take to her to a world beyond

(Beyond)

I know I wish more anything

I had the chance to be her

But I'd rather be your friend

Than risk the chance of losing you forever


Ever

Ever

Ever

Forever

Ever

Ever

Ever


Can't risk that

Can't risk you

Even if it hurts my heart

There's nothing that makes me want to cry more

Than when we're apart


So even if it hurts me

(Even if it hurts me)

Even if I die

(Even if I die)

As long as you're beside me

(You're beside me)

The rest of my life

(The rest of my life)


So even if it hurts me

(Even if it hurts me)

Even if I die

(Even if I die)

As long as you're beside me

(You're beside me)

The rest of my life

(The rest of my life)

As long as I know you're happy

Even if it's not with me

I promise you I'll be smiling

They Call Me Demon


They call me demon

They call me demon


Why do I have to be the same

To be a part of you?

To be someone you can look at as a friend

Someone you can accept?


Why do I have to walk like you?

Why do I have to talk just the way you do?

Why does a little difference

Have to change the world?


You call me demon

You tell me I'm no one

You take out your knives

You take out your guns

But there's no deeper pain

Than what you do to me inside

Why must I be the same?

Will I always have to run away?

Will I always be a demon to you?


A little change in shape

A little change in size

A little change to make me what I look like

But I'm still sweet inside


Why must you always judge with your eyes

Have you no heart?

Don't you know I'd still be me

Even if you couldn't tell us apart?


You call me demon

You tell me I'm no one

You take out your knives

You take out your guns

But there's no deeper pain

Than what you do to me inside

Why must I be the same?

Will I always have to run away?

Will I always be a demon to you?


(Guitar plays)


Can you imagine my life

Always on the run

Aching inside

Just for someone

To know that inflicting pain

Is not my intention

To know that a friend

Is all I seek?

But you only see me

As a demon


You call me demon

You tell me I'm no one

You take out your knives

You take out your guns

But there's no deeper pain

Than what you do to me inside

Why must I be the same?

Will I always have to run away?

Will I always be a demon to you?

(x2)

She'll Never Love You More


Time has passed by

And I'm still thinking of you

After all of these years

I can't help to wonder

How is life for you

Do you still think of me too

When you need someone

There to hold you


Is it much to ask

Or am I foolish

For a phone call

Why won't it ever ring

Are you with someone

Is she better than me

I hope you know

She'll never love you more


Does she wake up beside you

Like I used to

In your arms

Where I knew life was worthwhile

Has she taken my place

When you think of me

Do you see her face now

Have you forgotten mine


And when she asks you

Am I your first

Do you answer yes

Do you mention me

Or do you tell her not to ask

Because you don't know what to say

Confused with your feelings

I feel the same way


When she's laughing at your jokes

When she's smiling while you stare at her

Does a memory of us

Pass through your mind

Or is everything new

A beginning like there was nothing before

In comes one

And the other's out the door


Or am I mistaken

Do you miss me

Like I miss you

Every night

Is she just comfort

Because you're frightened

Because you're confused

And you don't know what to do


But whatever you choose

Whatever you decide

My arms are always open wide

For you

And if you really want her

If you think she's all you need

I just want you to know

She'll never love you more


She'll never love you more...



I Don't Deserve You


I can't get myself to understand why I love you

I can't get myself to believe you love me

It all seems too wonderful, a dream come true

When you're with me and I'm with you

Can you give me a reason?

Can you tell me how this happened?


I believe in miracles, yes I do

But I never dreamed of anyone as beautiful as you

You're every mind's imagination

You're every dream's fascination

Please give me a reason

Please tell me how


I know I

Don't deserve you

Beautiful

But I know I

Can't stop loving you

You're so wonderful

You've stolen my heart


When the wishing star passes by

I thought it was only by luck if your wish comes true

And one night I chanced a wish

Or was it fate that led me to you?

Is there a reason?

Are we meant to be?


I thought only angels could look like you

I thought only angels could be so kind

So sweet, so caring, gentle and beautiful

I've never felt such joy in my heart than when you say you're mine

Could there be a reason?

Can you tell me why?


I know I

Don't deserve you

Beautiful

But I know I

Can't stop loving you

You're so wonderful

You've stolen my heart


And if I die now

I'll die happy if I'm laying in your arms

Looking up into your gorgeous eyes

You're the most wonderful part of my life

Even when I'm gone

I'll be protecting you from wherever I am

Admiring you as I always have

Knowing how lucky I am


I know I

Don't deserve you

Beautiful

But I know I

Can't stop loving you

You're so wonderful

You've stolen my heart


I can't get myself to believe you love me

It all seems too wonderful, a dream come true

I know I don't deserve you












Magical Love


Was is yesterday or three years ago?

I can't tell the difference, baby

But it don't matter and never will

As long as you're here with me


See I'm packin' all my frustrations, packin' my grief

Put them away, they have no reason to stay

'Cause you're here now

I can only feel happy


Tight in your arms, that's where I belong

Don't want to be anywhere else

And if they say no

I won't go

'Cause now I'm a part of you


It's like magic

The force between us

It's a wonder

How we can't separate

I need you

You need me

That's how it'll always be

I'm lovin' every moment with you

I'm lost in this spell


Did you think we'd ever be here

Holding on to each other like there's no tomorrow?

Nothing feels as good as being lost in your love

I never find myself in sorrow


I love the way you tease

The way you get me to wish you were mine forever

And when you come close, I know every time

We can't help to put our lips together


In our dreams, that's where we'll be

Don't want to be anywhere else

And if they say no

I won't go

'Cause now I'm a part of you


It's like magic

The force between us

It's a wonder

How we can't separate

I need you

You need me

That's how it'll always be

I'm lovin' every moment with you

I'm lost in this spell


I can see the stars dancing in circles around us

I can see the moon smiling at the fading sun

I can hear the wind chuckling when you take my waist and pull me close

They know

They know

They know

We're under a spell

Magical love

We're under a spell

Magical love

We're under a spell

Magical love

We're lost in magical love




Always Want You Close To Me


I remember what you said to me

Last night when I held you

Told me you needed me

Told me you wanted me


I remember how good you felt

When you leaned close for a kiss

I loved every second with you

I loved every second of it


And I know

There's no life without you, baby

If I'm sure of anything


I want to hold you tonight, every night

I want to lay right by your side

I want to be in your every dream

I always want you close to me


Days are dark, days are gloomy

This fog and mist blind my way

But when you're with me I see the sun

And when you're with me I'm the happiest one

In this world

In this universe


When I hear your quiet breath as you sleep

All I can do is smile

There's no better place than being in your arms

There's nothing better than you being in mine


And I know

There's no life without you, baby

If I'm sure of anything


I want to hold you tonight, every night

I want to lay right by your side

I want to be in your every dream

I always want you close to me


I will be your shield when the nightmares come

I will still be holding you when all is gone

Just you and me

Forever

I want nothing else for myself


(Guitar plays)


And I know

There's no life without you, baby

If I'm sure of anything


I want to hold you tonight, every night

I want to lay right by your side

I want to be in your every dream

I always want you close to me


If I'm sure of anything


I want to hold you tonight, every night

I want to lay right by your side

I want to be in your every dream

I always want you close to me


There's no life without you, baby






Forgotten Me



I see you standing with her and I want to cry

Wishing it was me by your side

But she takes my place and I wonder why

What did I do that made you say goodbye?


I see you smiling at her and I see her laugh

I felt whole a moment ago, now I'm just half

You tear me to shreds when you look at her like that

She is your future and I'll only ever be your past


You tell her the same jokes you told me

You charm her the same way, why must you tease?

You met her the same day you said we could never be

Now you've left me here so lonely


Do you even know her for who she is?

Does it feel better with her than when we kissed?

Does she bring you the comfort you've longed for and missed

Or will you tell me she's better than this?


When you hold her hands and whisper in her ear

That she means so much to you, she's so dear

And that you love nothing more when she's near

Do you ever see my tears?


If she tells you tomorrow she cannot see you

She's so very busy, has so many things to do

Will you spend that day missing her too

Thanking the shooting star for your wish come true?


When at night you're both beneath the moon

She's in your arms, your hearts beat in tune

A sudden, sweet slow dance breaks between you soon

Do you remember the night I first danced with you?


The time soon comes for you both to sleep the hours away

Looking in each others eyes without a word to say

Then at last you whisper to her “I love you, baby”

And I know you've forgotten me

Angel


Angel

Do you remember me?

I was the child you brought life

With the caress of your light

Without you I feel lonely


Angel

Will you return back to my arms?

I can't breath with you gone

It's been too long

Keep me safe from harm


'Cause angel

Angel, I miss you

Angel, I need you

Angel, I love you like no one else in this world


Angel

Angel, I want you

Angel, I breathe you

Angel, you'll always be here in my heart


Angel

Do you see the darkness rise?

Now that you're so far away

The gloom wants to stay

The tears fall from my eyes


Angel

Do you know you bring me true happiness?

When all else is down

And the world still spins round

It's only you who brings me eternal bliss


'Cause angel

Angel, I miss you

Angel, I need you

Angel, I love you like no one else in this world


Angel

Angel, I want you

Angel, I breathe you

Angel, you'll always be here in my heart


My angel

My love...


I'm So Confused


There's so many things I want with my life

But it's only you I think about

One moment I feel certain to fly

Next moment I'm fallin' in doubt


What if you do me no good?

What if you use me like most would

Take me then throw me away?

What if you love me so much?

What if you're true in your touch

Understand and appreciate me?


I'm so confused

Thoughts rushin' in and out

Mind all filled with doubt

Fall down, get up and look around

What do I do?

I'm so confused


People hollering directions in my ears

Tellin' me to go left, right, up, and down

I'm like a lost child in fear

Wanting just to be found


What if you do me no good?

What if you use me like most would

Take me then throw me away?

What if you love me so much?

What if you're true in your touch

Understand and appreciate me?


I'm so confused

Thoughts rushin' in and out

Mind all filled with doubt

Fall down, get up and look around

What do I do?

I'm so confused


It's like there's one road in front of me

And then a thousand more appear

They're all filled with risks and consequences

So much noise but I cannot hear

My mind's swirling round and I want to fall

Just want to let go of it all

But I can't, it's so unclear

And I'm so confused


I'm so confused (so confused)

Thoughts rushin' in and out (in and out)

Mind all filled with doubt (with doubt, ooh yeah)

Fall down, get up and look around (all around you)

What do I do? (I don't know what to do, I don't know)


I'm so confused

Thoughts rushin' in and out

Mind all filled with doubt

Fall down, get up and look around

What do I do?

I'm so confused

(So confused)

What do I do?
