Day after day I try to
Earn my pay Go a little further But the odds are never in my favor (Oh.....Another) I tell myself this can't go on Very much longer But when I put the last brick in the wall Another brick falls *I try to run I try to hide A thorn gets stuck right in my side I tell myself it's all a game But the truth remains (Another) I pick it up I plow ahead I think of all I've done and said But, it's never quite enough Life will always be a little Tough! I run my race, keep up (oh) Pretty well, at a steady pace but There are days I fall behind the pack (Oh.....Another) It all seems simple till it Gets so hard to handle From the sky From nothing at all Another brick falls *Repeat Obstacles are a loss of concentration A thought that is in total isolation Hang on, you're headed for a ride Don't stray from the path that leads you Instincts will never deceive you When life really kicks Learn to catch those falling bricks I try to run I try to hide A thorn gets stuck right in my side I tell myself it's all a game *Repeat |

Anything is possible
Anything is possible Anything is possible Anything... Is Possible Thought I couldn't slow him down Long enough to look my way Thought he was out of my league Wouldn't give me time of day Thought he was like all the rest Love her, leave her, no remorse But I guess that I misjudged And this thing just ran its course He taught me - Anything is possible Anything is possible.....if you put your mind to it Anything is possible Anything is possible Break it down now....... Much to my surprise I felt A warm, not cold vibe When he looked in my eyes His bad boy front not charm Was his disguise (Let me tell ya) He read so much into me Listened so attentively He liked me, I rest my case Wasn't just a pretty face Bridge: If you set your mind You can do anything you want Not every guy is a bad guy Don't stereotype 'Cause this guy, he proved me wrong He taught me: Anything is possible Anything is possible...... |

CHORUS/CHANT:
Reverse psychology Doesn't work on me It works my nerves But I think logically So don't rehearse what you're gonna say I like it better the spontaneous way You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it? VERSE 1: Games are good for attention (Mmm-yeah!) But in the end they let you down Hold me back or let me go But no more middle ground Boy, you've got to play your cards right Get on back to the basics of love We don't need no mindless mind games A little give and take - push and shove - A little honesty is what I'm in need of! CHORUS/CHANT VERSE 2: Don't you know I've seen it all Though I seem naive to you (So now) Hit me with anything at all - Just hit me with the truth - yeah! You keep thinking one of these days you'll Push my back against the wall (against the wall) It's too late for tricks of the trade now I can escape anything at all - oh! A little push and shove - give and take - But I won't fall! CHORUS: Reverse psychology Doesn't work on me (never did, never will) It works my nerves But I think logically So don't rehearse what you're gonna say I like it better the spontaneous way You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it? BRIDGE: Why wait till something better comes along? Why not stay steady and strong? (steady and strong) A silver lining cannot be far away (be far) You'll get much further if you Do what you mean and mean what you say 1-2-3-I said..... CHORUS: Reverse psychology Doesn't work on me It works my nerves But I think logically (oh so much) So don't rehearse what you're gonna say I like it better the spontaneous way You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it I don't buy(I don't buy it) psyche - so why reverse it? CHORUS/CHANT Jam! Jam! I said, Jam! Reverse psychology style Jam Jam (Oooo - yeah!) |

Just look around and keep your eyes wide open this time If they're in love would they listen to you? Let's share our heart, a home in your arms All alone No people and no telephone, Just you and I One hand, one heart. |

He says he keeps a journal
I wonder what he writes of me? I suppose by now I should know But I just can't see There are a million thoughts always Running through my head But the words I think, Are different from the ones I've said *In his mind Can't I go there? Spend some time Just to see what's going on So I can see If he really thinks of me In his mind Something different from his logic Oh, I've kept it deep inside And I don't want to waste precious time Gotta know what's in his mind A person of many words But still a mystery When he shuts his eyes at night Does he see darkness or me? (Darkness or me?) No matter how close we are There are things we'll never tell I know a lot about you But I know my self better Very well In his mind Can't I go there? Spend some time Just to see what's going on So I can see Does he really think of me? In his mind Something different from his logic Oh, I've kept it deep inside And I don't want to waste precious time Gotta know what's in his mind *Repeat Gotta know I gotta know In his mind Something different from his logic Oh, I've kept it deep inside And I don't want to waste precious time Gotta know what's in his mind |
