Lucy Woodward

He gives me everything and I love him
He gives up everything to me
But although I show the world I need him
He'll never know 'cuz he's not free

And I can't do it to another, do it to another woman
I can't do it to another, do it to another girl
Her life depends on him more than mine ever could
I'd cry to look within, I got it bad and that ain't good
Oh no

He's with me night and day and I love him
He's near me come what may, yes indeed
But, though I cry the skies above him
I know that I should let him be

And I just did it to another, did it to another woman
I just did it to another, did it to another girl
Her life depends on him more than mine ever could
I'd die to look within, I've got it bad and I'm not good

Her life depends on him but then I feel the same
I'd cry to look within, I guess I'll just learn to live in pain

She can't do it to another, do it to another woman
She can't do it to another, do it to another girl

He gives me everything and I love him
She loves him

Singing lullabies to a doll in my arms
I was only five but I knew
I'd rock her to sleep, say goodnight to the stars
Someday our dreams will come true

Big old world in front of me
That asks me what I wanna be
Every time all I would say is

Babies, I want babies, I'd be the luckiest lady
Babies, I want babies, pudgy and sweet
I know they would complete me somehow
I want babies right now

I'm finally looking seventeen
But something's different about me
With the boys on the couch making out

Everybody's getting high
I drank too much of daddy's wine
But all that I'm thinking about is

Babies, I want babies to have and to hold and to save me
Babies, I want babies, cute little feet
I know they would complete me somehow
I want babies right now, right now

Someone to spend all my days with
Something to fill all the spaces

I got myself a full time job
Been madly in and out of love
Still I can't fill the space

Other things can lead to happiness
Lots of money and success
But all I keep thinking about is

Babies, babies, precious little babies
Babies, screaming, drooling babies
Babies, goo, goo, ga, ga, babies

Pudgy and sweet
I know they would complete me somehow
I want babies right now

Will someone knock me up now

Love's like fishing in the ocean
Starve for days to catch a break
Waiting in that boat alone
The fish know something you don't

They told me there ain't many of us down here
All the good ones have been hooked
But I threw back the finest one
Now I'm the one who's been cooked

He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
It's too late, my baby's gone
He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one
But I took too long

Well, everybody's got a notion
Of how their story's meant to be
But I got blinded by the stars
And missed the part meant for me

Yes, I got all swept up with emotion
But it's too hot for me to face
Might've had a better plan
If I wasn't caught up in the chase

He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
It's too late, my baby's gone
He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one
But I took too long

Baby, he called me, baby
When we were planning our registry
In tennis doubles and in couple's therapy

I'd make a special kind of wish list for Christmas
In our casa suburbia
And all the neighbors would say
They can't possibly go to bed and read, oh

Oh, he got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
It's too late, my baby's gone
He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
I could kick myself 'cause yeah, I was horribly wrong

He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
It's too late, my baby's gone
He got away, he got away
He got away, he got away
How'd I blow it, now I know that he's the one
But I took too long
She took too long

Oh, whoa
Don't rub it in
She took too long
Don't rub it in

And now I'm the king of the swingers
Oh, the jungle V.I.P
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what bothering me

I want to be a man, man cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like those other men
I'm tired of monkeying around
Ooh, ooh

Now don't try to kid me, man cub
I'll make a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dreams come true

So give me the secret, man cub
Clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you

Oh, ooh, bi, doo, I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human too

Now don't try to kid me, man cub
I made a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dreams come true

So give me the secret, man cub
Clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you

Oh, ooh, bi, doo, I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human too

Break it down boys, break it down boys, break it down
Break it down boys, break it down boys, break it down
Oh, break it down boys, break it down boys, break it down
Break it down boys, break it down boys, break it down

Now I'm the king of the swingers
Oh, the jungle V.I.P
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what's bothering me

I wanna be a man, man cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like those other men
I'm tired of monkeying around

Oh, ooh, bi, doo, I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You see it's true, an ape like me
Can learn to be human, too

Can learn to be like someone like me
Oh yeah, oh yeah, one more time
Can learn to be like someone like me

Leave it to you to be so alive
Comforting kind of strange
Leave it to you to burst into my life
Leave it to me to stay

Falling in love's a typical day
The movie won't change its end
But I'll buy, I'll buy the ticket anyway
Just in case it won't happen again

Leave it to fortune of fate
It's the chance that I take
Didn't know I was so naive

Leave it to me to cling to memories
Leave it to you to leave

Leave it to fortune of fate
Did it show I was so naive?
No matter how hard it burns
Tell me what have I learned
Say the word and I'll still believe

Leave it to me to cling to memories
Leave it to you to leave

My purple heart, all red and blue
Still lingers on the thought of you
Thou it's just a little stain
I was hoping it would fade by now
Thou it's over done and said
It's heavier than lead somehow

It lights a spark, leaves a residue
It burns in me, all the embers of you
It's a darkest lullaby, tucks me in but still I lie awake
'Cuz that morning sun will rise
And I hope I'm not the same as yesterday

You would think that I'm okay from the outside looking in
Yes I'm hard on myself but that's just the way I am
So I put it in a box and I keep it locked away

For as long as I can
I picture you alone and you're picking up the pieces
I know I let you down
But I swear I had my reasons to let you go

But I'm just stuck with this purple heart, all red and blue
Still lingers on the thought of you
I know you can't forgive but I don't want to regret
The life I would have lived if I didn't say the things I said

I'll surrender to this purple heart
It's no longer pumping red, this purple heart
The darkest shade of blue, this purple heart

I am a ragdoll, limping this bed
A little worn out from the fun that we had
But nothing's broken just feeling open
It's not like I'm not thinking 'bout my wedding day

It's not the kind of thing you tell to the world
But still it's sweet to be your bad little girl
I'm kinda groovy on what you're doing
So squeeze me like the one you love

Damn, you put some spell on me
You gotta love a woman who will do as you please
So rip out my heart, throw me down like you do
Stay with me, play with me, don't ever take love away from me
And I'll baby you, I'll be your baby too

I love the way you love to fondle my hair
And drive me crazy with your hands everywhere
I swear I'll keep it our little secret
Our own little bedtime story

Damn, you put some spell on me
You gotta love a woman who'd just do as you please
So rip out my heart, throw me round like you do
Stay with me, play with me, don't ever take love away from me
And let me baby you

I am a ragdoll
Ooh, yeah
I'll let ya put your hands in me

Ooh, oh, so take your damage of me like I do you
You make me, ooh, with that thing that you do
So hold me, hug me, baby, gimme your all
I promise I won't be a good little doll

Damn, you put some spell on me
I kinda like the way that you, ooh, eee
I'm a raggedy Ann, what you want me to do?
Stay with you, play with you, won't ever take love away from you

Ooh, damn
You gotta love a woman who knows what she needs
So rip out my heart, throw me down like you do
Stay with me, play with me, don't ever take love away from me
Love me, baby

You, I'll be your baby too
You, yeah
I am a ragdoll

Sans souci, ah, sans souci
They got no room here for someone like me

Oh, the mountains start to giggle
When the springtime waters wiggle
Down the mountainside

I can hear the fishes swishing
Just as loud as I'm a wishing
When I hit the tide

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Sans souci, ah, sans souci
They got no room here for someone like me

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Try to tell me I was evil, try to trample on my soul
Try to make me think that they were righteous
But the plot of the lie was whole

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Sans souci, ah, sans souci
They got no room here for someone like me

Ah, the earth, it starts a squaking
'Cause it knows that love is walking
And it ain't no dream, no, you ain't no dream
Sans souci, you ain't no dream

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Try to tell me I was evil, try to trample on my soul
Try to make me think that they were righteous
But the plot of the lie was whole

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Feel yourselves with all laughing and talking
That used to be

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Sans souci

What do you want me to say?
I'm not doing so good today.
But I could lie and tell you,
What you wanna hear.

What do you expect me to do?
Get on my knees and cry for you.
When I had finally found the way
Without you.

You don't have to call anymore,
To check up on me.
While I'm in the middle of a slow recovery.
The doctor says I need to take better care of me.
So I'm tryin', I'm tryin'.

I wish there's a pill I could take.
So I'd forget about you three times a day.
It might help me get through the night... oooh
I guess I'll just have to wait
And get a little bit stronger every day
Until I find the way to live without you.

You don't have to call anymore,
To check up on me.
While I'm in the middle of a slow recovery.
Maybe it's a symptom of you getting over me.
That you want to resuscitate your love for me.
The doctor says I need to take better care of me.

So I'm trying,
To keep my head together... ooohhh
Getting over you
Has got me under, under the weather

You don't have to call... noooo.
You don't have to call... oooohhh

You don't have to call anymore,
To check up on me.
I'm in the middle of a slow recovery.
Maybe it's a symptom of you getting over me.
That you want to resuscitate your love for me.
The doctor says I need to take better care of me.
And baby, I have to agree,
That I have to take better care of me

So I'm trying, I'm tryin'
Oh I'm tryin'... ooh I'm tryin'...

Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely nights dreaming of a song
That melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you

When our love was new
And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
Now my only consolation
Is in the stardust of a song

It was beside the garden wall
(Beside the garden wall)
(Beside the garden wall)
When stars are bright
(When stars are bright at night)
You were in my arms

The nightingale tells its fairytale
Of paradise where roses bloom

So I dream in vain
In my heart you will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain

I sit inside alone, piles of scattered memories surround me
Torn pieces on the floor, bags outside the doorway
If only I had a dime for every time I just didn't find my heart

I'm clearing out this house of clutter
I toss my trash into the gutter
It's over, at least it will be soon
Boxes full of lies and letters
Pictures ripped up so much better
It's over, now that's its me and this empty room

I got a special kinda of paint, to brush away the frenzy
Left behind, I the bed a mess on his side
And wear his t-shirt on last time then I dust with it again
I could try a thousand times to just defy his heart

But I'm clearing out this house of clutter
I toss my trash into the gutter
It's over, at least it will be soon
Boxes full of lies and letters
Pictures ripped up, so much better
It's over, now that's its me and this empty room

I'm clearing out this house of clutter
I toss my trash into the gutter
It's over, at least it will be soon
Boxes full of lies and letters
Pictures ripped up so much better
It's over, now that's its me and this empty room

Hello there, don't hand up before you get any ideas
I know that I was a, a pain in the ass, out of fear
A princess with tiny troubles weighing me down
And oh, I've wasted so much time
With these stupid thoughts on my mind

You won't find me crying over something dumb
No, no, no, I've got too much to live for
'Cause hanging on to yesterdays ain't no fun
No, no, no, I got too much to live for

'Cause I'm tired of singing the blues
That ain't really blues, they're just bad excuses
Some bad excuses, oh, oh, oh

It takes over, it gets bigger
Consumes my every inner thought
Anxiety attacks me
Neurotic fit and then I drop

But I'm popping this little bubble
And loving the sound
And I, I've been around the world
And seen a lot of smiles from folks with nothing

You won't find me crying over something dumb
No, no, no, I've got too much to live for
'Cause hanging on to yesterdays ain't no fun
No, no, no, I've got too much to live for

'Cause I'm tired of singing the blues
That ain't really blues, they're just bad excuses
Some bad excuses, ooh

You won't find me crying over something dumb
No, no, no

And over reacting won't keep you young
Well, everybody loves the drama sometimes
Well, I'm changing my ways 'cause I'm over it, over it

But I'm tired of singing the blues
That ain't really blues, they're just bad, bad excuses
I'm tired of singing the blues
Ain't really blues, they're just bad excuses, ooh, ooh
Some bad, bad excuses
No, no, no, uses, just some bad excuses

I got too much to live for
Too much to live for

w/out much hope just blind ambition
pretending that theres nothing missing

Nothin' like walkig down Avenue A,
But it' not like any other day,
'Cause I feel you more than ever now,
Throwing me off somehow,
Nothin' like a girl with an attitude,
But take it all away she don't know what to do,
Now I got you in my fantasy,
Over and over, humbling me,

You got a way,
Of finding me,
Do the math,
It's meant to be,
But how can this be good for me,
If you never know where or when,

[CHORUS:]
I got,
Blindsided,
So used to seeing things my own way,
And I liked it,
But that just don't mean anything,
Now I'm blindsided,
You rocked my world I never saw it coming,
Got nowhere to hide,
And it's not fair

Well here's that other side of me,
Where I sneak into your room and watch you sleep,
And you bring out the high school in me,
I can't pay attention,
Give me detention,
Living in the moment just kills the time,
I wanna find you and make you mine,
My heart's a boombox beating all over town,
It goes bum bum, bum bum

You got a way,
Of finding me,
Add it up,
Can't you see,
If this is your way of getting through to me,
You're tripping me up again

[CHORUS]

I don't know what's come over me,
'Cause I feel so differently,

You got a way,
Of finding me,
Do the math,
It's meant to be,
If this is your way of getting through to me,
Well you're tripping me out again

[CHORUS x2]

There's no point in askin' why,
'Cause baby you're makin' me high,
Blindsided,
You rocked my world and I never saw it coming,
Got nowhere to hide,
And I like it

Walkin down chip strip aint the same
But it's not like any other day

Throwin me off somehow

He broke my heart today
I don't know what to say
I can't feel a thing at all
I did not see it comin
Now you just a man that got away
I look at the ground and give the sky
the middle finger
Something inside said here's a day
you should remember
So mark it on a wall
I never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to somebody else
I miss you so much can't stand it
You bring out the blonde in me
Cause I'm still hanging on
Even though you done me wrong
And I got the heart to forgive this
But I'd never let you know
What kind of girl would put herself
In that postition yeah
To think that I could
ever fight the system
And I got fooled again
I never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to somebody else
I thought I was strong
I thought I was strong
But I was just dreamin
I can't believe it can't believe it
That nothing was wrong
nothing was wrong
I thought I knew what was goin on
But love was deceiving me
love was deceiving me
Now I'm just a dumb girl yeah
A dumb dumb dumb dumb girl
That's what I amyeah yeah
I can't believe that it
happened to me
Something like this only
happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart yeah
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to somebody else
yeah yeah yeah
I can't believe
that it happened to me
yeah yeah
Something like this only
happens to somebody else
now I'm just a
A dumb dumb dumb dumb girl
That's what I amyeah
A dumb dumb dumb dumb girl

Sometimes when you're lying beside me
In your eyes I see
I don't know but it's something it's something
And it's trippin' me up again
It's like you're here but you're not here
I need to know where
But you won't let me go there
Always telling me it's nothing it's nothing
Well I had a vision
Of a lover in my best friend
It's not like me to question

[Chorus]
Something always gets in between
It twists and it turns
You know that it seems to me
Latey I'm so unsure
I can't put my finger on it on it
Stange feeling ripping at the seams
And I've never heard the sound of my heart breaking
Like this before
Before there was always something

[Verse]
Think back on the days when
We were falling
It was so good then
Never worried 'bout a thing, no nothing
Well it's funny how things change
Now a cold wind is blowin'
And I was hoping it's not the start of a bitter end
Could it be that your something
Is someone else
Only time will tell
I thought I knew me so well
I shouldn't put me through this hell

[Chorus]
Something always gets in between
It twists and it turns
You know that it seems to me
Latey I'm so unsure
I can't put my finger on it on it
Stange feeling ripping at the seams
And I've never heard the sound of my heart breaking
Like this before
Before there was always something

[Bridge]
Something's always getting in between
And it's always rippin' at the seams
Something's always messing with my vision

[Chorus]
Something always gets in between
It twists and it turns
You know that it seems to me
Latey I'm so unsure
I can't put my finger on it on it
Stange feeling ripping at the seams
And I've never heard the sound of my heart breaking
Like this before
Before there was always something

Nothin' like walkig down Avenue A,
But it' not like any other day,
'Cause I feel you more than ever now,
Throwing me off somehow,
Nothin' like a girl with an attitude,
But take it all away she don't know what to do,
Now I got you in my fantasy,
Over and over, humbling me,

You got a way,
Of finding me,
Do the math,
It's meant to be,
But how can this be good for me,
If you never know where or when,

[CHORUS:]
I got,
Blindsided,
So used to seeing things my own way,
And I liked it,
But that just don't mean anything,
Now I'm blindsided,
You rocked my world I never saw it coming,
Got nowhere to hide,
And it's not fair

Well here's that other side of me,
Where I sneak into your room and watch you sleep,
And you bring out the high school in me,
I can't pay attention,
Give me detention,
Living in the moment just kills the time,
I wanna find you and make you mine,
My heart's a boombox beating all over town,
It goes bum bum, bum bum

You got a way,
Of finding me,
Add it up,
Can't you see,
If this is your way of getting through to me,
You're tripping me up again

[CHORUS]

I don't know what's come over me,
'Cause I feel so differently,

You got a way,
Of finding me,
Do the math,
It's meant to be,
If this is your way of getting through to me,
Well you're tripping me out again

[CHORUS x2]

There's no point in askin' why,
'Cause baby you're makin' me high,
Blindsided,
You rocked my world and I never saw it coming,
Got nowhere to hide,
And I like it

I wanna let you know
While I'm still standing here
I'm not hopeless but
I can't forget about it
No matter where I go
I'm gonna take it
You're never gonna see me lost or lonely

There are so many things
I never get to say
But I know you don't care
Think you can live without it
I bruise so easily
But it comes to back me
Remembering the words of what you told me
Thinking you could actually control me

You took what you needed
I am still breathing
I am still feeling the warmth of the sun
I'm not gonna fade away this time
You know I gotta tell you when you do what you do
I'm not done

You made me stronger than
Than I'm supposed to be
My heart is a light that's dependent on me
You're such a nowhere man
Who'd never understand
And from the very moment that you hurt me
I realize you really don't deserve me

You took what you needed
I am still breathing
I am still feeling the warmth of the sun
I'm not gonna fade away this time
You know I gotta tell you when you do what you do
I'm not done

What you call love is something else
If you just want it for yourself
Oh no

Remembering the words of what you told me
And thinking you could actually control me

You took what you needed
I am still breathing
I am still feeling the warmth of the sun
I'm not gonna fade away this time
You know I gotta tell you when you do what you do, oh
You took what you needed
I am still breathing,
I am still feeling the warmth of the sun
I'm not gonna fade away this time

[3x:]
You know I gotta tell you when you do what you do, oh
-

He broke my heart today
I don't know what to say
I can't feel a thing at all
I did not see it comin
Now you just a man that got away
I look at the ground and give the sky
the middle finger
Something inside said here's a day
you should remember
So mark it on a wall
I never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to somebody else
I miss you so much can't stand it
You bring out the blonde in me
Cause I'm still hanging on
Even though you done me wrong
And I got the heart to forgive this
But I'd never let you know
What kind of girl would put herself
In that postition yeah
To think that I could
ever fight the system
And I got fooled again
I never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could
happen to me
Something like this only
happens to somebody else
I thought I was strong
I thought I was strong
But I was just dreamin
I can't believe it can't believe it
That nothing was wrong
nothing was wrong
I thought I knew what was goin on
But love was deceiving me
love was deceiving me
Now I'm just a dumb girl yeah
A dumb dumb dumb dumb girl
That's what I amyeah yeah
I can't believe that it

Taking themselves too seriously

August, no clue, 2002,
I didn't see coming, even when I came,
I got what I asked for,
3000 miles and no more wondering,
If I need a change,
Ain't it strange,

[CHORUS]
Is this Hollywood?
'Cause I feel a bit displaced,
But I kinda like it,
Oh I just know it's gonna be good,
I've already decided, yeah,
I wouldn't leave it if I could,
Disoriented as I am,
Is this, is this Hollywood?

The waitress knows my story,
'Cause I'm here every single morning,
She calls you New York,
I tell her you're long gone,
And you're easy to forget,
How lucky can a girl get?
The outta site works a charm,
Ain't I strong?

[CHORUS]

And you know it's time,
I can always change my mind- okay,
I can come and I can go,
That's all I need to know- today

[CHORUS]

And my eyes are buggin' yeah,
I got a brand new neighborhood that I'm really loving,
Oh I wouldn't leave it if I could,
Disoriented as I am

[Chorus]
There could've been a better way
But you had to push me away to be alone
How come the things that I can't touch
Are the things that hurt so much
Well I'll never know
3 days under my belt and I can't remember the last
thing you said
But you were 15 inches away from me
You mumbled something 'bout you and me
The land of the free under the same breath
Well, I already knew
I already knew you were fading

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm already standing here on my own
And I don't understand it baby just what went wrong
3 days under my belt
I'm staring at the ceiling once again
Your closure is just ripping me wide open
And I wanna scream but I know it won't bring you
back to me
So your independence wins
I hope you're finding out what the hell that is

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Don't you look for me
Don't you cry for me 'cause I'm alright
Something new begins when something ends
I'm alright 'cause it's what you gotta do
Just so you understand
I'm standing

[Chorus]

And there could've been a better way
But you had to push me away to be alone
How come the things that I can't touch
Are the things that hurt so much
guess I'll never know
And I shoulda tried to to change your mind
But I didn't feel you still were mine so I let it go
'Cause I'm already standing here on my own
And I don't understand it baby just what went wrong
So take one good look at me
Before you move on
I'm standing I'm standing where I belong

There ain't enough boys in the world to go around
You gotta be wicked and tricky
to bring that big boy down
There ain't enough time to talk to everyone
You gotta be distant and bitchy
If you ever wanna get it all done
Do I wish that things were different?
I'm wishing away
I won't point fingers but the thing is
That it always breaks on down this way

The Rolling Stones and I disagree
That you can't always get what you need
And I find it a little hard to believe
That there ain't enough love to go around
That's how it breaks on down
There ain't enough to quench my curiousity
You gotta hit the bull's-eye and let the shit fly
And still there ain't no guarantee
There ain't enough love in the world for every heart
Some are gonna be broken and shattered
While they're tryin' to mak ea brand new start
Do I wish that things were different?
I'm wishing away
I won't point the fingers, but the thing is
That it always breaks on down this way

As long as my landlord's lying
As long as my neighbor's spying
As long as I feel rejected and a little bit disconnected
I need to be unaffected
I need to be able today

Thinking that I want you,
And you know that I coulda got what I want,
Anybody feel that,
When you know,
But your heart lets it go 'til it's all gone,
It's not like I don't see it,
When it's coming on,
Still I feel like I don't belong

[CHORUS:]
The trouble with me is,
I'm the sum of the parts of something wild,
It's a little big thing,
And I know it,
The trouble with me,
Is I got the heart of nobody's child,
But I don't wanna be free,
That's the trouble with me

Thinking that you know me,
But it's just when you think that,
You know it,
You're wrong,
Wishing you could show me how to stay,
But I can't anyway,
Not this song,
Don't you know that I get weary,
I get so lonely but it's just no use at all

[CHORUS]

You try to make sense of it you try,
But it's not really me who's saying goodbye,
It's like I got some kinda split personality,
You know nothing ever gets control of me like this,
What can I do?

[CHORUS]

Thinking that I want you,
And you know that I coulda got what I want

Yeah, please just let me stray, look the other way
I got to do this alone
Cause Im the only one here
Dont misunderstand youre the perfect man, but Im not ready to go
And settle down with you

C: So Close your eyes, close your eyes
Im not who you think I am
Let go get out while you can
Trust me you dont, you dont want to see this
Ill be trying everything
Knee deep into anything
Trust me you dont, you dont want to see this, oh no

I cant help myself I feel like someone else
Youre going to thank me someday
Im saving you the heartache baby
If youre still around when Im slowing down
I might follow you home
But dont wait up for me

C: Just close your eyes, close your eyes
Im not who you think I am
Let go get out while you can
Trust me you dont, you dont want to see this
Ill be trying everything
Knee deep into anything
Trust me you dont, you dont want to see this

Oh dont put up a fight
Please dont kiss me goodbye
This was hard enough to say
No you cant change my mind,
Dont even try it

C: Im not who you think I am
Let go get out while you can
Trust me you dont, you dont want to see this
Ill be trying everything
Knee deep into anything
Trust me you dont, you dont want to see this
Trust me baby you dont want to see this
Trust me, trust me you dont want to see this

i ain't no queen of hearts, i go through stages
i fall in love then complicate it
yeah, you know the feeling
w/out much hope just blind ambition
pretending that theres nothing missing
i always kept believing that...

but everything just left me empty
love walkin in and out of my door
wasn't good enough no more
well i dont trust myself life really sucks and...

eventually im gonna get whats good for me

im just tryin to be creative
but everyones so oppinionated

but i know its gonna leave me empty
life, walkin in and out of my door wasnt good enough no more

]

He broke my heart today
I don't know what to say
I can't feel a thing at all
I did not see it comin'
Now you just a man that got away
I look at the ground
And give the sky the middle finger
Something inside said
"Here's a day you should remember
So mark it on a wall"

I never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to somebody else

I miss you so much
Can't stand it
You bring out the blonde in me
'Cause I'm still hanging on
Even though you done me wrong.
And I got the heart to forgive this
But I'd never let you know.
What kind of girl would put herself
In that postition?
yeah
To think that I could ever fight the system
And I got fooled again

I never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart
I was the one girl
Who never believed it could happen to me
Something like this only happens to somebody else

I thought I was strong (I thought I was strong)
But I was just dreamin'
I can't believe it (can't believe it)
That nothing was wrong (nothing was wrong)
I thought I knew what was goin' on
But love was deceiving me (love was deceiving me)
Now I'm just a dumb girl
yeah
A dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb girl
That's what I am
yeah, yeah

I can't believe that it happened to me
Something like this only happens to dumb girls
Taking themselves too seriously
I was so damn smart, yeah
I was t
