Feel the magic come over you

Hear the music within

You gotta trust your instinct

Don’t be afraid to feel what you do deep inside

Be cool, don’t rush it too soon

You gotta, take time and if you fake it you’ll lose

You’re gonna get it right

Because you don’t wanna lose

You know you got a desire

Don’t lose hope, it only takes time

Relax your body and your mind

You’re going back and forth

Can’t get it, can’t get it and then

It takes over your soul, taking you from deep within

Oh, you gotta

Be cool, don’t rush it too soon

You gotta, take time and if you fake it you’ll lose

You’re gonna get it right

Because you don’t wanna lose

You know you got a desire

I took one look at you and I knew it was the end

Your eyes reveal the love you lost, there’s no need to pretend

I know you so well, your feelings cannot hide

I know in your heart, our love has died

You won’t hurt me if you wanna go

And if it makes you happy, I will let you know

That I only wanna see, wanna see you be free

You don’t have to be afraid, to tell me how you feel

I thought this love was built on being real

But now I see it was all an illusion

Your dishonesty is my confusion

You won’t hurt me if you wanna go

And if it makes you happy, I will let you know

That I only wanna see, wanna see you be free

I hope that we will always be friends

To go our own ways should not mean it’s the end

Of something that’s taught me, taught me so much

About what is means to be in love

Lately I’ve been thinkin’ that, clearly, you are the perfect one for me

You treat me like I am heaven sent

Sometimes I get thinking too much about

This life, and when I’m gonna figure out my dreams

But you bring back the center of gravity

You pull me down from the clouds in time to make me see

The sun was shining all along (I do)

I searched and never thought I would’ve found

A love in you, and now it’s time for us to settle down

Because baby I do (I do) want you

You thought it was a little bit crazy

To commit to something that you thought maybe

Might not make it through

But here we are a few years later and

I’m still here and now I finally understand your dreams

But you bring back the center of gravity

You pull me down from the clouds in time to make me see

The sun was shining all along (I do)

I searched and never thought I would’ve found

A love in you, and now it’s time for us to settle down

Because baby I do (I do) want you

Time ain’t gonna stop, and neither will my love for you

I never thought I’d figure out my dreams

Here you are standing on the right side of me

A ring in your hand made just for me, and I’ve got one for you

Vows written to explain just what I’ll do

To keep this fire burning on, through and through for you

Day by day, what can I say?

I can’t stay here no more

I say goodnight, by the dawn’s early

And I stumbled out the door

And I’ll be just another stranger who knows your name

And you’ll be just a little baby who’s not to blame

Static remains, stations too proud to be changed

All my life I meant to throw the dice

And I dropped them on the floor

I went to pick them up and by the time I got enough

You’d staggered out the door

Here and there, my kingdom of despair

You know I’d rather be alone

I turned to look but the sound was all it took

To remove me from my throne

And now I’m just another stranger who knows your name

And you’ll be just a little baby who’s not to blame

Because I’m just another stranger who knows your name

And you’ll be just a little baby who’s not to blame

Static remains, stations too proud to be changed

Come over here, sit down

Don’t wanna relax?

You’re always rushing around

Always checking your facts

Feel the music all around

I know it’s taken me

Let’s put some soul records on

Dig it ‘til we’re feeling free

We’re gonna drop that needle down

Feel the grooves are tight

There ain’t no time to mess around

I got some good advice

Can’t move forward

Unless we’re lookin’ back

Let’s put some soul records on

Motown, Atlantic, or Stax

I said yea, yea, yea

Put your soul records on, come on and groove now baby

Yea, yea, yea

Put your soul records on

I said yea, yea, yea

Put your soul records on

Why did I ever get so hung up on you?

Through all the endless games you seem to put me through

How could such a sweet face put me through such times

Constant give and take, a kiss and a smile

You know you scarred my heart

You make me go insane, child

I hope one day you know, I hope you feel the same

I’ve been denied, after all those times I tried

All your useless alibis

I’ve been denied, after all those times I tried

All your useless alibis

So here I am again calling you on the line

I play these, play these stupid games

I don’t wanna put up a fight

But I try to play it cool, deep inside I’m dying

One day I’m gonna wisen up, for now I’ll keep on trying

But you’re so misaligned

And I know you can’t, can’t handle the drama

And I wanna, wanna, I wanna make you say it back

You don’t seem to even care

Testing me with your questions, but I can bet ya I got it down

You think you got a leg up, a few years on me, maybe,

butI know what’s going on

This life is pretty short and this reality we live in

Try to make it worth my while

I say what I need to say, I play what I want to play

I don’t want to waste my time, I do it alone just fine

Won’t find me whining, I’ll take two hits and press rewind

It might not interest you but open up your mind, ‘cause I

I don’t want to waste my time, I do it alone just fine

Won’t find me whining, I’ll take two hits and press rewind

It might not interest you but open up your mind and try to find

A quiet place for you to sit and figure out what life is all about

‘Cause the world is trippin’ you out

You need to chill out and try to handle your life

You might not know what to do, but someway you’ll make it through

Nobody said I would help you

I don’t want to waste my time, I do it alone just fine

Won’t find me whining, I’ll take two hits and press rewind

It might not interest you but open up your mind, ‘cause I

When I get together with you I don’t like it when I’m feeling so blue

The boss is riding me on the job and the traffic light is just like a mob

But all those things don’t feel the same this evening

My love is not fair and boy you gotta believe me

You know my heart is in the right place

You know my heart is in the right place

You know my heart is in the right place

You know my heart is in the right place

Know that you could probably relate that I got too many things on my plate

With that they’d invent a way to add more hours into a day

I know we’re not collecting like we should

And if I could change it boy you know that I would

You know my heart is in the right place

You know my heart is in the right place

You know my heart is in the right place

You know my heart is in the right place

Give it just a little more time

After a day or two I’m sure we’ll be fine

The ups and downs that life throws our way

Will repeat tomorrow, no one can say

I know we’re not collecting like we should

And if I could change it boy you know that I would

Touch my hand and you will feel it

Listen to my voice and you will hear it

What you’ve done to me is something

That my body language cannot hide

So if it shows too much, too fast, don’t run

Everything you’ve shown me so far is everything I need

So if I get emotional just know

It’s because I’m overwhelmed with your love, babe

It makes me nervous to think of times

I gave my heart away

But I will this time and I’ll hope that you won’t go

Don’t go, no

Oh you’re touch is so intrinsic

It’s a fire that burns deep in me, babe

It was so dark without your embrace

But now you’re here and the sun’s shining on your face to face we lay now

I’m staring deep into those green eyes

Eyes that see me for me and all I see is you

Everything you’ve shown me so far is everything I need

So if I get emotional just know

It’s because I’m overwhelmed with your love, babe

It makes me nervous to think of times

I gave my heart away

But I will this time and I’ll hope that you won’t go

Don’t go, no

We all have a story

Each will differ from you to me

Decisions we make from day to day

Determine the future we will lead

So take time with your choices

In what you do from day to day

Remember all actions cause a chain reaction

And I miss you now you’ve gone away

All the people you’ve touched can feel you now

Because your presence is beyond reach

But I can still hear your laughter

Calling after me

And I regret the day

I turned your friendship away

I was scared of the choices you made

And now I sing this song today

So take time with your choices

In what you do from day to day

Remember all actions cause a chain reaction

And I miss you now you’ve gone away

Seeing all that had come undone

When I went to pack up and run

There was somewhere I’d go inside

But I would just cloud up my mind

Cause you’re my soul, my soul salvation

You’re my soul, my soul salvation

Peace only comes with you

When I have to walk this world alone

Will I find you when I get back home?

Will you help me, darling, see what’s right?

Cause I think I’m just too weak to fight

Cause you’re my soul, my soul salvation

You’re my soul, my soul salvation

Peace only comes with you

I don’t know how, I can’t explain

How you help me stop the rain

I don’t know how, I can’t explain

How you help me stop the rain

My faith was lost, my spirit drowned

You put me back on solid ground

I don’t know how, I can’t explain

How you help me stop the rain

My faith was lost, my spirit drowned

You put me back on solid ground

Cause you’re my soul, my soul salvation

You’re my soul, my soul salvation

Peace only comes with you

It seems too many days have come and passed

But time was never meant to last

We live in the moment but we don’t realize

In time what we can compromise

Getting caught up in the drama

Some days it never ends

Trying hard to make a dollar

I gotta introduce my ends

And at the same time remember, we gotta

Live in the moment

Time is often stolen

And before you know it

You’re story is told, and at an end, yea

It took some time for me to see

How simple this life can be

And once I took the time to realize

In time what we all compromise

Getting caught up in the drama

Those days are at an end

Now that I got the power

To give my life a simple end

And at the same time remember

Live in the moment

Time is often stolen

And before you know it

You’re story is told, and at an end, yea
