I like you
02:59

It's that awkward silence when you're not sure what to say
Going out for coffee and end up just hesitating
I said, oh talk about the weather
You'd think we'd get some sunshine but it's all just rain, all just rain
Gonna be another year older soon enough
I gotta learn to say what I mean, yeah, I gotta learn to say
I gotta learn to say what I mean, oneday, I gotta learn to say
I like you
I like you
I gotta learn
I gotta learn
I gotta learn before it's too late
I gotta learn to say I like you, I like you
I gotta learn to say before it's too late, I like you
'Cause I do, I like you 'cause it's true
I walk in the rain and just think about that some more
I need to say before it's too late
I need to say before it's too late
That I like you
I like you
I like you
I like you
I like you
Oh Oh I like you

Precious
03:07
|

I think it could maybe have a happy ending
If I could let myself believe that it will be fine
If I could just relax for long enough to get through this little section of time
I think you're precious (I think you're precious, oh so precious...)
things will be fine if only I could believe and hold on this time
I think this might be the right one
If only I could be strong enough
I felt little scared, I felt a little right
I wanted to run away and hide
But you're just so precious I shouldn't fight
Oh you're so precious I shouldn't hide
Oh you're so precious I really should try
Oh you're so precious (this might be the right one, might be the right one this time...)
Oh you're so precious, oh you're so sweet
Oh you're so precious, oh you're so sweet
This might be the right one this time, if I could only just relax, oh
This could be the right one this time
This could be the right one this time
This might be the right one this time
This might be the right one this time
This might be the right one this time
Oh you're so precious, oh you're so sweet
Oh you're so precious, oh you're so sweet
Oh you're so precious, oh you're so sweet
Oh you're so precious, oh you're so sweet
Make me smile
You make me smile

A songwriter's war
03:05
|
|||
You were never once ignored
All your questions were answered
Never had the time to see you face to face so I wrote them all in songs
Hundred of songs
You've never taken the time to hear
You've listened but you've not heard
Cause you do not listen with your ears
Oh a songwriter should know
You listen with your heart
You listen with your soul
Oh my love, it's written in the songs
Hundreds of songs
Hundreds of songs
Oh you should know
Oh you should know
You don't listen with your ears
A songwriter should know
You listen with your soul
You listen with your heart
You listen with your soul
You listen with your heart
Hundreds of songs
Hundreds of songs
All declaring your beauty and my love
Hundreds of songs
Verse upon verse
Ain't my fault if you listen but never heard
Cause you don't listen with your ears
A songwriter should know you listen with your soul
Listen with your heart
Listen with your soul
Listen with your heart
Listen to it all
Oh you should know
Hundreds of songs
Hundreds of songs
A songwriter's war

You are a control freak
02:29
|
|||
The clock is ticking
I've got to make up my mind up eventually
Can't let things carry on the way they are
It's not good for me
Oh, I might as well surrender
That's the way you make me feel
There ain't no point in fighting
You get what you want in the end
There ain't no point in resisting
You get what you want in the end
Oh, ain't no point cos the choice ain't mine
You win
You win
You win anyway
You win
You win
You always win anyway
Cos in the end I know
You'll get what you want
It always is
It always is
It always is your way
It always is
It always is
It always end your way
Oh, ain't no point in resisting cos I know
You always get what you want
Ain't no point
Ain't no point
Ain't no point in resisting
You always get what you want
Hook or by crook
You get what you want
You always win
You always win in the end
You always win
You always get what you want
You are the only winner in this life
It's always your way

Worst Case Scenario
03:03
|
|||
What's the worst that could happen?
What's the worst that could happen?
You still can't quite make your mind up
Worst case scenario would be it goes on like this forever more
Oh it could go like this forever more
See you always make it look like you've decided and then behind the scene things are happening
Always happening, it's never as it's painted
Oh worst case scenario is that this will never end
Oh worst case scenario it goes on and on and on and on
Worst case scenario you'll always be there in the background
Worst case scenario means it's not safe for me to move on
What's the worst that could happen?
Don't want anybody else getting involved
Don't want anybody else getting hurt
Oh what am I meant to do?
I don't even know what to say to you
I don't know, I just don't know
Worst case scenario would be for this to go on
Worst case scenario it would go on forever more
Worst case scenario you'll always be there in background
Worst case scenario I don't think it's safe for me to move on
What's the worst that could happen?
It always is with you
Worst case scenario
It always is with you
It always is with you
Worst case
It always is with you
It always is with you
Worst case scenario

Speak
02:49
|
|||
Don't come a visiting unless you've got something meanful to say
Don't come driving by round this way unless you are gonna stop
And say something worth hearing
I said, don't come calling round unless you are actually are going to string a sentence out
I said, don't stop by unless you speak
When I say speak, I don't mean scream
I don't mean scream at the top of your lungs, I mean just speak
I said, don't come calling round until you learn some manners
I said, don't visit me unless it's need
I said, don't you come calling
Don't you come round this way unless you've got something useful to say
Don't come stopping by unless you going to get out your car this time
Don't come calling
Don't come calling by unless you've got some conversation that's not dry
Oh if you've got wisdom, if you've got anything good to say you know where I am
You know where I am, always

No pretenses required
03:04
|
|||
Everyday like a performance on a stage
Nobody really knows you
Taken the time to let one person the real you
And you're not sure if you like that
But you think you need it
You're not sure if you like that
But yeah I think you need it
Oh, write me a love letter sometime
Cos I might just be the only one who'll love you for who are
Oh, write me a love letter
Cause no pretenses are required
Write me a love letter
I'll take you as you are
Oh, since I'm the only one that knows the real you
Surround yourself with strangers you call friends
None of them know the full story
Always gonna be that way
Because it would paint you bad
To tell the truth
Tell the truth
Everyone would know all about you
And you don't want that kind of shame
Oh, write me a love letter
I might be the only one who will love you completely despite all of it
Write me sometime
Because I know that no pretenses are required
I know that no pretenses are required
Come as you are and I will love you
For you all that are and all that you're not
Come as you are and I will love you
For you all that are and all that you're not
I'll take you as you are

Subordinate
02:00
|
|||
I'm not your, I'm not your insubordinate
I'm not your, I'm not your insubordinate
I won't do what I'm told, won't behave
I'm not your, I'm not your insubordinate
I'm not your, I'm not your puppet on a string
You can't control me so don't try
You can't own me and that's no lie
You can't control me so don't try
You don't own me
I'm not your, I'm not your , I'm not your subordinate
Oh I'm not your, I'm not your, I'm not your plaything
I'm not your, I'm not your , I'm not your subordinate
I said, I'm not your, I'm not your, I'm not your subordinate
I'm not your, I'm not your, I'm not your subordinate
I'm not your
I won't be told what to think
I'm a free spirit I'll do as please
I won't be told what to do
You don't have enough power to control me
I'm not your, I'm not your , I'm not your subordinate
Oh, I'm not your, I'm not your , I'm not your subordinate

I always loved you
03:24
|

In this life we make compromises
Everyday just to survive all the harshness of this life
Of this life
Every day we walk away from things
We want to keep, We want to keep
Like your love
I always loved you
I always loved you
I always loved you
I always loved you
It's the heart break you've gotta live with
You carry that weight in your soul
Carry that weight in your soul
It's all the time you wanna turn back
Always looking over your shoulder
It's all that you've lost
I always loved you
I always loved you
I always loved you

Back to haunt you
02:42
|
|||
Feels like an eternity of rain
But I'm happy knowing you're hundred of miles away
All you've done will haunt you one day
All you've done will come back on you one day
And I just want a little distance
Oh I just want a little distance
I just want a little distance
I know that all you've done will come back to haunt you one day
I know your sidekick will probably be the undoing of you
I see a little more than you do
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
What goes round comes back around
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
What goes round comes back around
I know that all that you've done will come back to haunt you
I know that all that you've done will come back to haunt you
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
What goes round comes round again
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
What goes round comes round again
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
What goes round comes round again
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
What goes round comes round again

Right to the end
03:08
|
|||
Haunted both my dreams and my nightmares equally
You have torn my life apart for entertainment and nothing more
And she has travelled to my home town just to look me in the eyes
She came all this way just to whisper it has always been you
Oh it always will be
Oh it always will be
Yeah it always will be
Yeah it always will be me
And whatever goes on
The road will always lead here
And no matter what lies you tell them
Their paths will always be clear
Cos I know we can't fight this
We can't fight this forever more
Oh it's always been
Yeah, Oh yeah, it's always been me
And it will always, always be me
Oh it will always, always be me
