================================================ "Alright, class . . . get quiet . . . NOW!!!" ================================================

================================================= All the time that we've spent The things that we've been through I get the feeling now and then I can't live up to you Can my actions all defend A life lived next to new? On how I feel it all depends But this I know is true The thoughts inside my head go on and on and on As I try to keep myself prepared But when the time comes and it's all said and done I know that you'll meet me there Sifting through the sands of time I long to see my soul So I see what I can find But all there is is gold I catch myself falling behind I can't carry that load Until I think of the next rhyme By then it starts to show The thoughts inside my head go on and on and on As I try to keep myself prepared But when the time comes and it's all said and done I know that you'll meet me there The thoughts inside my head go on and on and on As I try to keep myself prepared But when the time comes and it's all said and done I know that you'll meet me there Yes, I know that you'll meet me there =================================================

================================================ As the days creep by It's hard to think that I could be someone That means so much to you And though I don't know why Still I look to find a reason Why it's true I just can't explain what it puts me through I can't stop thinking about your love And what it might do Will you ever know? If you only knew Can't stop thinking about your love And what it might do And in the midnight sky How the stars they shine Just waitin' for a day that's new It'd be a big surprise When they realize How much brighter they could shine If they knew you The whole world stands still when I'm with you I can't stop thinking about your love And what it might do Will I be enough to satisfy you? I can't stop thinking about your love And what it might do The greatest thing I've ever known Sits right next to me With the purest love that can be shown She sets me free When the rain hits hard on the ground I know it can't bring me down 'Cause she is all around And she loves me More than you I just can't explain what it puts me through I can't stop thinking about your love And what it might do Will you ever know? If you only knew I can't stop thinking about your love And what it might do ================================================

================================================ It started to rain That's when she went insane That's when she could not take it anymore She got in line For the last time And she made her way out my door But you left your shoes on the roof You didn't know what was coming to you You left your shoes on the roof You left your shoes on . . . She got halfway That's when I heard her say That I would not be seeing her anymore Then she walked on She didn't care if she was right or wrong She just kept on swimming towards her shores But you left your shoes on the roof You didn't know what was coming to you You left your shoes on the roof You left your shoes on the . . . As weeks went by I asked myself why I had lost the one that I adored But it's a fact Yeah, I know that she'll be back 'Cause there's something here that she just can't ignore You left your shoes on the roof You didn't know what was coming to you You left your shoes on the roof You left your shoes on the roof On the roof On the roof On the roof On the roof ================================================

================================================ Back when I could be heard I could fly like a bird Not aware of the day I'd die But standing here on the curb I am forced to observe All these people with all their lies And nothing seems to satisfy The longing that I hold inside To figure and undecide What is going on and on . . . And on . . . Wherever you go There you are Wherever you go There you are You don't have to look very far 'Cause wherever you go There you are So try again says a man With a sock upon his hand In the end it will be all right I was fine until then 'Til the thought of the end Crept back into my mind And the elements that make me bored Are cut in two with a whirling sword My spirit is thrown overboard Then I start to fall and fall . . . And fall . . . Wherever you go There you are Wherever you go There you are You don't have to look very far 'Cause wherever you go There you are When everything is going down; Your whole world is turned around Everything is going down; Your whole world is turned around This is how we figure out This is how we figure out This is how we figure out Who you are And who you're not; What you want And what you've got Wherever you go There you are Wherever you go There you are You don't have to look very far 'Cause wherever you go There you are There you are ================================================

================================================ In the morning sun The day has just begun I search my mind for a reason To go on Then I turn around When I hear that sound It's something that will make a life A little bit more fun It knows the right way To make a brighter day It gets inside your head And never lets you go You know just what it is It's sang by all the kids You can't miss it It's on the radio It's that song It's a good-time song It's a good-time song It's a good-time song You go and face the world You're thinking of that girl It must be so nice To be loved by her You wonder if she's real You wonder what she'd feel If she were more than something In that song In the good-time song It's the good-time song It's a good-time song Why can't she be more like that girl? Is there one out there in this world? And, oh, the way she makes you feel Even though she's not real That song It's a good-time song It's a good-time song It's the good-time song You never know just when it comes You sit around twiddlin' your thumbs Then before you know a thing You begin to sing . . . ================================================

================================================ Anna ~ Don't you know that I need you? I can't help but believe you And everything that you say Anna ~ You're my one & only When my days get lonely You make the pain go away And when the rainclouds move in on my life You are always there to make things right And while the rain keeps falling from dark skies The Sun is always shinin' In your eyes Anna ~ I'm so lost without you All my dreams are about you And your wondrous grace Anna ~ Don't you know that I love you? It's clear my dreams have all come true With one look at your face And when I face the battles in my life You are always there to lead my fight And while the rain keeps falling from dark skies The Sun is always shinin' In your eyes Anna ~ I need to know that you're out there My whole world is a nightmare When you are away Anna ~ You're my one & only When my days get lonely You make the pain go away And when it looks like there's no hope in sight It's your love that gets me through the night And though the forecast calls for cloudy skies I know the Sun is always shinin' In your eyes Tomorrow there'll be rainbows In you eyes 'Cause the Sun is always shinin' In your eyes The Sun always shines In your eyes ================================================

================================================ Looking back on my simple life I can see just how it's gone Even the eyes of a perfect stranger Can tell there's something wrong I hope that I can find a sign That leads to the right way But lately it's been hard to find I guess I'll stay the same The water from my shower Flows down the drain I think of how for countless hours My life has done The same Is it a crime to go on this way? I can't make up my mind My sight is sold to a different day But sill I feel I'm blind It's always been so hard to avoid All of the relentless guilt But as I die and soak up the lies My world begins to tilt The water from my showers Flow down the drain I think of how for countless hours My life has done The same The water from my showers Flows down the drain I think of how for countless hours My life has done The same ================================================

================================================ On this night of all nights I'm alone I lie balled up on my bed And it's getting a little bit cold There is nothing that I could want any more Than for the girl of my dreams to show up Waiting at my door . . . But who could want what I've got? Who could need someone like me? What kind of girl would want to share my world? She'd have to plead to insanity I can't wait to meet this girl of my dreams When she finally shows up waiting at my door Then I hear her footsteps coming up the stairs I see her walking beautifully With flowers in her hair I wait there for her to be my one & only call But it's just the neighbor that lives down the hall But after all . . . Who could want what I've got? Who could need someone like me? What kind of girl would want to share my world? She'd have to plead to insanity I can't wait to meet this girl of my dreams When she finally shows up waiting at my door I know that she will be the one When she comes for me But up until that point in time I'll wait patiently . . . But who could want what I've got? Who could need someone like me? What kind of girl would want to share my world? She'd have to be crazier than me I can't wait to meet this girl of my dreams When she finally shows up at my door . . . When she shows up at my door ================================================

================================================ Hopeless dreams of gold Instilled in my soul I never really know Just where to call my home I guess it will come to me When the time is right I guess it will come to me Whenever I like I need to know I need to know I need to know The world is growing old I'm wanting to explode I try to break the mould But in the end I fold I never know where it starts Or where it ends I never know if it will Come back again I need to know I need to know I need to know It just can't be true That there's nothing here that's new The world just can't be So user-friendly to me I need to know I need to know I need to know ================================================

================================================= I doubt you know just how much Your smile means to me Every time I seem to be down To get it up, your face I see And just like a light bulb, you You always brighten up a room I wonder how hard it is To be the life of a party Be the center of attention . . . Oh, and every time I look around, I see you I see you smiling Everyday and every way, I know I know you're with me Every time I look around, I see you I see you smiling Everyday and every way, I know I know you're with me Should I compare you To a bright & dawning summer's day? You know I think you'll make the Sun feel bad And keep the Moon at bay So how could you not see How beautiful you are to me? I know there's a mirror on your wall And it joins me in singing . . . And every time I look around, I see you I see you smiling Everyday and every way, I know I know you're with me Every time I look around, I see you I see you smiling Everyday and every way, I know I know you're with me =================================================

================================================ I wake up to hear her calling Shouting my name out loud Silence is gently falling It's falling without a sound . . . The timing is right for the future But what happened to right now? The heavens all introduce her Her beauty is all around . . . It's the way she makes me feel The deepest love that can reveal She appears like morning sun Then my world starts to become Surreal . . . surreal . . . Nothing's the same thereafter Everything's just a blur She brightens the world with her laughter Miracles start to occur . . . Somehow I know that she loves me Her love I can't live without She's larger than life because she Will never be figured out . . . It's the way she makes me feel The deepest love that can reveal She appears like morning sun Then my world starts to become Surreal . . . surreal . . . Surreal . . . surreal . . . It's her love that can make me feel surreal . . . Surreal It's her love that can make me feel surreal . . . Surreal It's her love that can make me feel surreal . . . Surreal ================================================

================================================ Left & right I search For a way out of here Trouble up ahead I know I sound like The other ones But they're all dead Everyday there's Something in my way I don't know what it is Maybe I will Find out someday If I get to live But I've never asked for more than What was given to me I've never looked for answers that were Plain to see Time goes by all the hours Add up to something to forget If you stand out in the rain too long You're gonna get wet What you know Is what the others teach you You've gotta learn for yourself I think so Searching for The pieces to complete you You've gotta find them yourself 'Cause I won't rescue you Who am I to tell You what to do? Was I wrong or right? But you can bring Your broken heart to me I'll glue it right this time Loneliness keeps Knocking at your door Why don't you make him a key? Tell him all of Your pitiful stories But don't tell 'em to me 'Cause I've never asked for more than What was given to me I've never looked for answers that were Plain to see Time goes by all the hours Add up to something to forget If you stand out in the rain too long You're gonna get wet What you know Is what the others teach you You've gotta learn for yourself I think so Searching for The pieces to complete you You've gotta find them yourself 'Cause I won't rescue you Look inside & you will find Something that is better than you One by one around the Sun And when it's done . . . I will rescue you ================================================
