'Round The Dark
03:10
|

'Round the dark, I find it hard to breathe
When the stars shine their light, they don't shine on me
In the sun, I make my way
Through the torture of the day
But 'round the dark, my strong heart begins to break
'Round the shadows, your face is all I see
When they fall so in time, they fall so hauntingly
In the light, I do just fine
Through the haze I drink my wine
But 'round the shadows, I lose my weary mind
'Round the dark, your words are all I hear
When they start, they sing their songs in my ear
In the blue sky, I get by
Through the memories of your eyes
But 'round the dark, i can't bear the lonesome night
'Round the dark
Oh, you know I can't take it, baby
Oh, you know I can't do it darling, ooooh
In the blue sky, I get by
Through the memories of your eyes
But 'round the dark, I can't bear the lonesome night

Love Through The Line
03:39
|

Love through the line never felt so fine
Oh, that child of mine never been so kind
It may be across the miles, but it's enough to last a while
Love through the ocean blue, oh, I hope I hold it soon
Oh, my heart's in two and I hope yours ain't breakin' too
It may drown my heavy soul, but it's a feeling I can't let go
Love through restless days without you calling my name
Oh, I live in pain, without you I go insane
It may burn like a fire but you're my only desire, babe
Love through endless time, oh, I dream of you tonight
Oh, it feels so right, I dream of you right by my side
It may seem so out of sight, but that's love through the line

Take You Anytime
04:11
|
|||
'll only fall as far, as far as you let me
And if you let me down, please just do it gently
And if you do it, can't you just do it now?
I'll only say the words when I know you're ready
And if I give it all, oh, I'll do it gently
And if I do it, oh, you know I'll stick around
Can you say the same, baby?
Can you let up with the maybe?
Can I settle with you saving
All your love for another time?
But I'll take you anytime
As long as you're mine
I'll learn how to get by
I'll take you anytime
I'll only move as fast, as fast as you take me
And if you need to break, please just do it with me
And if you do it, I'll lift you off of the ground
I'll only break my own heart if you'll have me
And if you hold it tight, you don't need to doubt me
'Cause if I hold yours too, you know I won't weigh it down
Can you say the same, baby?
Can you let up with the maybe?
Can I settle with you saving
All your love for another time?
But I'll take you anytime
As long as you're mine
I'll learn how to get by
But I'll take you anytime
As long as you're mine
I'll learn how to get by
I'll take you anytime

Should've Known Better
02:54
|
|||
Four years don't mean a thing
When you keep falling at my feet
You take me down with you just to see me weep
Oh, I could treat a girl kinder in my sleep
Your green eyes don't say a thing
They just burn their lies through me
You take me down in a fire just to bow out first
Oh, modesty ain't so hard to learn
You should've known better
You should've known better
You should've known better, baby
You should've known better, ooh
Your worn hands may have held a lot
But they won't take all this love I got
You throw it down the drain just to make it spin
is that any way for someone to live?
Your tired heart, you say, is full
But not of faith and not of truth
You're breaking mine just to spare your own from pain
Baby, listen when I say
You should've known better
You should've known better
You should've known better, baby
You should've known better, ooh
You should have known
You should have known
But you're taking me down, oh, you're taking me
These four years don't mean a thing
When you keep falling, baby
And I'm telling you, you should've known better
You should've known better
You should've known better
You should've known better, baby
You should've known better
Oh, you should have known
So why don't you leave me alone?
Well, I'm not gonna take it no more
You should've known better
You should've known better
You should've known better
You should've known better, baby
You should've known better
You should've known better

Killing Time
04:33
|
|||
Who let you get away with murder, baby?
You stabbed a heart and hung it on your line
You called her darling, you called her your lady
Then said the timing just wasn't right
Who stole your soul and turned it cold?
She sure knew how to build your pride
Well, now you say this shit's getting old
So you're just out there killing time
Are you proud?
How does it feel?
Does it send shivers up your spine?
Make you feel so damn alive
Breaking hearts and killing time?
No one can hold their breath for you
God knows they may never breathe again
They'll wait a thousand years for truth
But they'll never find it in the end
You want to step into the sun
While you're still hiding in the shade so blind
How will you ever find the one
When you want it both ways killing time?
I let you get away with murder, baby
You stabbed my heart and hung it on your line
You called me darling, you called me your lady
Then said the timing just wasn't right
You stole my soul and turned it cold
You sure knew how to break my pride
Well, I must say this shit's getting old
You killed some time by wasting time
Are you proud?
How does it feel?
Does it send shivers up your spine?
Make you feel so damn alive
Breaking hearts and killing time?

Come Back To Me
04:08
|
|||
You left with a fire glowing in your eyes
But your burning desire, I could hear in your lies
Though you say that you want to be free
I know it's me that you need
So won't you come back, baby, come back to me?
Well, I know they all say it's just a little heartache
Well, if this is love, is this the price we must pay?
So down on my knees, I can only dream
Of your arms around me tenderly
Until you come back, come back to me
Well, how many days must I pretend to live, live like this?
And how many nights must I cry before I give in?
'Cause without you, baby, this house just ain't no home
And I know I can't do it alone
Well, how many days must I pretend to live, live like this?
And how many nights must I cry before I give in?
'Cause without you, baby, this house just ain't no Goddamn home
And I know I can't do it alone
You took it all with nothing to spare
You let my well run dry and you don't even care
But somehow I can't see, no I can't breathe
So if you want, you can have everything
If you just come back, come back to me
Oh, I need you to come back right now, baby
Oh, I need you to come right back to me
If you just come back, come back to me

Stepping Stone
06:00
|
|||
It's not time, you say, but you can't find
The strength to walk out my door
And I know it's not what it seems
I know what you really need me for
But I could never be your stepping stone
Though as I say it, I can't bear to watch you go
I'm drawn to flames that burn so slowly but I've learned
You've got to let them die out on their own
Ooh, ooh, ooh
It's my time and it's not a sacrifice
I'll make to keep you in my life
And it doesn't heal all wounds like they say
But I hope one day the scars will fade
And I could never be your stepping stone
Though as I say it, I can't bear to watch you go
I'm drawn to flames that burn so slowly but I've learned
You've got to let them die out on their own
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's just time and I know I'll be alright
I've picked myself up off the floor
We're all broken and we all have a vice
But baby, my heart can't be yours
And I could never be your stepping stone
Though as I say it, I can't bear to watch you go
I'm drawn to flames that burn so slowly but I've learned
You've got to let them die out on their own
Oh, I know you've got to let them die out on their own
I know I've got to let them die out on their own
'Cause I could never be your stepping stone
