Lyrics | Lindsey Webster

Love Inside album cover

Take a moment to count your blessings

And you will find what you already know

It's the same thing we all seem to miss

It's the one thing we find hard to express

Remember you got all the love that you need inside

Let it just flow and take the ride

There will be new possibilities

Open up your heart and you will see

You got all the love that you need inside

Let it just flow and take the ride

You will see that you will just up and fly

You got all the love that you need inside

For a minute I thought I got it

But the next day I couldn't find my strength

Cuz I was caught up in a world that I can't understand

Where we judge each other as if we can

Even begin to try to understand what battles we fight in our heads

And nothing's as easy as 1, 2, 3

But if you follow through you will come to see

That life is giving you the opportunity to be what you wanna be

Remember you got all the love that you need inside

Let it just flow and take the ride

There will be new possibilities

Open up your heart and you will see

You got all the love that you need inside

Let it just flow and take the ride

You will see that you will just up and fly

You got all the love that you need inside

I had a love before who told me things I did believe, but I was never sure

It was in his eyes that I denied the truth; instead I chose to believe the lies

I was under a spell but I liked the way it made me feel so I could never tell

That I was so unwise to give him all my love when I knew it wouldn’t last

I have seen a momentary love

But you and I will always stay

There have been too many for too long

And the promises that don’t remain

Become a love before

I gave my heart before, to a man who couldn’t see that to him I’d have given the world

And although I tried, he turned away my best and still I stayed along for the ride

Why couldn’t I tell that all he had to give was a lesson that I learned too well?

And I was so unwise to give him all my love and to think that it would last

I have seen a momentary love

But you and I will always stay

There have been too many for too long

And the promises that don’t remain

Become a love before

It’s a story told too many times of a love that keeps you coming back, coming back

Though you know it’s just not right, still you feel compelled to go running back, running back

When you came into my life, I finally felt like I got it right, got it right

Although it took some time, every love before led me to you

I have seen a momentary love

But you and I will always stay

There have been too many for too long

And the promises that don’t remain

Become a love before

I know I can be so difficult

And you seem to be so fed up with me

I can tell this won’t end well

I don’t know where you’ll go, but...

Think about it for a minute more

Before you walk out the door

Take a second just to think it through

Is this the end of me and you?

This time I know I’ll get it right

So give me a chance to show you how it can be

You still say there’s no way

I can change, but I think you should

Think about it for a minute more

Before you walk out the door

Take a second just to think it through

Is this the end of me and you?

You still say there’s no way

I can change, but I think you should

Think about it for a minute more

Before you walk out the door

Take a second just to think it through

Is this the end of me and you?

I know we all just want to be accepted

Whether you’re black or you’re white

You’re Buddhist or you’re Muslim

Somewhere the love got lost in translation

And the ego’s the one that wants to rule the nation

(I want to be free)

I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me

One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

(Free to be me)

I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me

One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

There was a time when I would just accept it

Stereotypes and all of the assumptions

Now I have a mind and I’m not afraid to use it

Although there are some who would rather I abuse it

(I want to be free)

I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me

One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

(Free to be me)

I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me

One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

There is a chance, I know that we can make it

Through the good and the bad, we’re strong enough to take it

For we are the ones who will never forsake it

The life that we live and the beauty that creates us

(I want to be free)

I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me

One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

(Free to be me)

I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me

One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

Far away is a place they say

Where we can be free to be who want to be

Well I won’t wait for the day the to come

When you and I can live as one

It’s not as far as it may seem

The dream

I can see

As far as it may be

It is coming near

The dream will soon be real

I believe there’s a time when we

Will look into each other’s eyes

Without a trace of animosity

Well I won’t wait for that day to come

So I vow now to love each one

For we must live without fear until

We dream

I can see

As far as it may be

It is coming near

The dream will soon be real

I know it’s getting kind of crazy

And this love might have you thinking

That you’re done and leaving ‘cause

It wasn’t what you thought it’d be

And I thought that I could make it

Without the one thing that brings me up

When I’m down, down and out

And now I’m stuck here on the ground

Don’t give up on me

I’ll never let you down

Don’t give up on me

I’ll always be around

You say it’s too hard to trust in

And yet you keep up the lovin’

To get me to stay

And still you say it’s just not right

But don’t ever get to thinkin’

That you could give me a reason

To ever leave your side

Because it’s right here I wanna be

Don’t give up on me

I’ll never let you down

Don’t give up on me

I’ll always be around

I’ve been waiting for the moment

For you finally to notice

That I am here and waiting for the chance

To give you love

And I can give you a reason

To trust and finally believe in my love

So baby, baby, don’t give up on me

Don’t give up on me

I’ll never let you down

Don’t give up on me

I’ll always be around

I know your heart was never mine

And to her you would go back every time

But I can hear you whispering to me, "won’t you stay the night?"

And yours is a love is that I can’t deny

So one last time

I need to feel your heart beating close to mine

I can’t fight the need to have you next to me

One last time

It would be so easy for you to stay

And give me all the love she turns away

But in the distance I see the moon lighting up the night

And you will be gone by the early light

So one last time

I need to feel your heart beating close to mine

I can’t fight the need to have you next to me

One last time

Stay with me until you have to go

There is not a soul in the world who knows

Who you really are when you’re with me

Your soul is the lock and I have the key

So one last time

I need to feel your heart beating close to mine

I can’t fight the need to have you next to me

One last time

So now you tell me this is not exactly what you’d thought it'd be

You don’t think that we should have to try

I guess I should be happy that we had ever met at all

Because I always loved you for your mind

How will I know if my feelings were for sure?

How could I tell? I wouldn’t have the words

How would he feel if I knew the truth?

That I, I wouldn’t care even if he lied

Tell me, why’s it so hard to walk away from you?

I see there can’t be any other way, oh no

I try real hard to connect to you

But each time I miss my shot and it falls through

I don’t know if I can handle feeling this way

But each that time that you hold me I feel so much pain

Should I go? Should I stay?

Is it right? Who’s to say?

But if you say the word

Then I will walk away

Should I go? Should I stay?

Is it right? Who’s to say?

But if you say the word

Then I will walk away

I know it’s hard for you to open up to me

But you should try and just let your emotions free

I know you got problems you need to address

‘Cause you can’t love me if you don’t love yourself

You know I am willing to see this thing through

But at this point the rest is all up to you

Should I go? Should I stay?

Is it right? Who’s to say?

But if you say the word

Then I will walk away

Should I go? Should I stay?

Is it right? Who’s to say?

But if you say the word

Then I will walk away

Time goes by, still I try

Our love stays slipping away

So should I let it go, should I let it go?

I don’t know

Should I go or should I stay?

What is right? Who’s to blame?

Should I go or should I stay?

Should I go? Should I stay?

Is it right? Who’s to say?

But if you say the word

Then I will walk away

Should I go? Should I stay?

Is it right? Who’s to say?

But if you say the word

Then I will walk away

Is it really love that can make me do these things?

Lately I’ve been acting like a child

If it seems that I haven’t been myself at all

It’s because my world’s turned upside down

It’s not like me to act that way

I don’t know how I changed

But I can see

That it’s not you, it’s me

No need to explain

Why you just don’t feel this way

If it were me, I’d have done the same

I wish I were strong

Because then I’d carry on

Instead I’ll wait ‘til the heartache is gone

It’s not like me to act that way

I don’t know how I changed

But I can see

That it’s not you, it’s me

This is how it ends

Barely even friends

One love gone while one clings to the end

Of something I never even had all along

It’s not like me to act that way

I don’t know how I changed

But I can see

That it’s not you, it’s me

It’s not like me to act that way

I don’t know how I changed

But I can see

That it’s not you, it’s me

Oh, it's not like me to act that way

If I was you, I'd do the same

Oh, one love gone while one clings to the end

Of something I never had

Oh, something I never had

I feel things about to turn around

For me, cuz I’ve been workin’ for a long time

I know the time’s about to change

For we, we’re gonna see a better day

Just when you think you’ve had enough

And you feel you’re gonna give up

That’s when life’ll turn around and you’ll see

In the problem is the opportunity

Just when you think you’ve had enough

And you feel you’re gonna give up

That’s when life’ll turn around and you’ll see

The opportunity

I feel like it could be the day

For me to think about it in a brand new way

Just when you think you’ve had enough

And you feel you’re gonna give up

That’s when life’ll turn around and you’ll see

In the problem is the opportunity

Just when you think you’ve had enough

And you feel you’re gonna give up

That’s when life’ll turn around and you’ll see

The opportunity

You know that you could do the same

If you, if you cast your fears away

Just when you think you’ve had enough

And you feel you’re gonna give up

That’s when life’ll turn around and you’ll see

In the problem is the opportunity

Just when you think you’ve had enough

And you feel you’re gonna give up

That’s when life’ll turn around and you’ll see

The opportunity

You give me strength, you give me courage

When I can’t seem to find either on my own

You give me hope, when I am doubtful

And all the faith that was lost can now be found

You are the light that always brightens up my day

When everything is wrong up you make it all okay

You make me feel like I can reach and touch the sky

I’m high with you by my side

You are my sight, you are my wisdom

You help me see the things I know weren’t there

You pick me up, when I am down low

And take me to a place I’ve never been before

You are the light that always brightens up my day

When everything is wrong up you make it all okay

You make me feel like I can reach and touch the sky

I’m high with you by my side

Take me higher, take me higher

Everyday you’re my desire

Oh you really keep the fire burning baby, yea, it’s burning for ya

Oh you know I can’t resist it

All the love you keep on giving

Cuz it’s real and I can do anything with you by my side

You are the light that always brightens up my day

When everything is wrong up you make it all okay

You make me feel like I can reach and touch the sky

I’m high with you by my side

Back To Your Heart album cover

Your love is never enough

It’s like a glass only half filled up

I’m trying hard to see the other side

No matter how I look I just don’t know how

To show you the way back to your heart

You gotta give me a sign so I know where to start

Never knowing how much I should give or when to stop

It’s got me thinking this love will never make it to the top

I try every day

To love myself and be my own best friend

But you’re bringing me down and I can’t stay

Caught up in your love like this every day, oh no

So show me the way back to your heart

You gotta give me a sign so I know where to start

Never knowing how much I should give or when to stop

It’s got me thinking this love will never make it to the top

Show me the way back to your heart

My love was was always too much

And you could never handle it as such

You never tried to see it from my side

No matter how I look I just don’t know how

To show you the way back to your heart

You gotta give me a sign so I know where to start

Never knowing how much I should give or when to stop

It’s got me thinking this love will never make it to the top

I can see it now you and me

Never being apart, we don’t wanna be

Looking out for love because we got what we need

Can you hear me know? I’m calling

Out to you but you’re far away

Come a little closer, there’s something I gotta know

Where do you want to go?

I’ll take you right now if you’re reading to explore

How do you wanna be

I can see it in your eyes that you’re ready to break free

If you think about how many

People go without loving

It would make you think that we got nothing to find

But this love inside is calling

And my lonely heart is falling

Come a little closer and I’ll show you inside

Where do you want to go?

I’ll take you right now if you’re reading to explore

How do you wanna be

I can see it in your eyes that you’re ready to break free

Given my heart to you

And now I’m finding it on the floor

Gave my soul to you

But you forgot it down the hall

I don’t see much of a need to try

When I’ve given my all

And you just pass it by

I can see through all the lies you tell

I know you well

Leaving this part of town

Gonna pack my things, find a new place to be

One that won’t give me a million reasons to think of you

And the way we used to be

I don’t see much of a need to try

When I’ve given my all

And you just pass it by

I can see through all the lies you tell

I know you well

Well I can’t see staying

Am I giving up or giving in to the way that it is?

You can’t abuse me, use me up, and then you just refuse me

No, that’s not the way that it is

Taking my own advice

A little peace of mind is all I’ll need

To think through what I have done

Is it right?

For the first time instead of you I’m thinking me

I don’t see much of a need to try

When I’ve given my all

And you just pass it by

I can see through all the lies you tell

I know you well

Take all of me

Leave nothing behind

I know that you’ve been through it all

Don’t be afraid

Of what we might turn into

There’s more at stake than just your heart

Take some time

You will find

Everything depends on those three words

I love you

I see your eyes

They stare into me

I’ve never wanted anymore

I’ll take these arms

Wrap them around you

I’ll hold tighter than I have before

Take some time

You will find

Everything depends on those three words

I love you

I’ve never seen the beauty of day

Until there was you

You came and showed me there is a way

To give my heart and be true

Don’t be afraid

Of what we might turn into

There’s more at stake than just your heart

Take some time

You will find

Everything depends on those three words

I love you, I do

Right now it might seem what’s real

Couldn’t break in a million years

But I know it can’t stay this way

With time also comes change

Don’t you fear we won’t be free

With some love we’ll change what they see

It’ll take some time but when we align

We could change their minds

One at a time

With everything that they make us see

We might feel there’s no hope for you or for me

Let’s stand together and up to that

I’ll fight for you if for me you fight back

Don’t you fear we won’t be free

With some love we’ll change what they see

It’ll take some time but when we align

We could change their minds

One at a time

Right now it might seem what’s real

Couldn’t break in a million years

But I know it can’t stay this way

With time also comes change

Don’t you fear we won’t be free

With some love we’ll change what they see

It’ll take some time but when we align

We could change their minds

One at a time

Some days it seems that more and more

I need to look back on yesterday

To see the path that we have traveled

Just to make sure we’re on our way

To a brighter day, under a brighter sun

Making more of what we need to get along

I know that we forget the things we have

But I also know that gratitude comes from the path you choose

Some days it seems that more and more

I need to look back on yesterday

To see the path that we have traveled

Just to make sure we’re on our way

To a brighter star in a darker sky

Twinkling above us in the misty night

The universe is vast and so I know

If I keep on heading down this road there’s just one place to go

Some days it seems that more and more

I need to look back on yesterday

To see the path that we have traveled

Just to make sure we’re on our way

We’re on our way

We’re, we’re on our way

Some days it seems that more and more

I need to look back on yesterday

To see the path that we have traveled

Just to make sure we’re on our way

Beyond this plane

I know you are safe from pain

And this life

To you it has been unkind

I do believe

You’re out there and watching over me

You can see me now

Wondering if you are around

Though I can’t see

I still believe

That you are with me now

And you know somehow

The hurtful things I’ve done

Weren’t ever an absence of love

I just wanted you to be

Safe and here with me

You lived your life

The way the wanted, ain’t that right?

And now you are free

Always you’re watching over me

Though I can’t see

I still believe

That you are with me now

And you know somehow

I love you, Mom

I won’t look at your picture

And I won’t pick up the phone

I can’t call once again

Knowing you won’t answer

We’re too far apart

And I know in my heart

That you’re living a lie

And I can’t deny

My heart is broken in half now

And it’s not enough

To come together as one

I don’t drive down your street now

I just take the longer way

I can’t stand to pretend

My heart doesn’t break down

When we are apart

And I know in my heart

That you’re living a lie

And I can’t deny

My heart is broken in half now

And it’s not enough

To come together as one

I gave you my love (you blew it)

There was no one above (you knew it)

And I won’t be the one to wait in vain

When you’re living a lie

And I can’t deny

My heart is broken in half now

And it’s not enough

To come together as one

I didn’t know you had a weakness for temptation that I just didn’t see

Such a fool to believe you when told me it was only me

I heard that you were sneaking around in past relationships and telling lies

I believed that you could change but only now I realize

Ain’t it funny how you think I did you wrong

When I’m really feeling like I know I did you right

Baby tell me how a love can be so wrong?

Baby tell me how, ain’t it funny how?

I had a sneaking suspicion after only a couple of days

When I was staring deep into your eyes and then you looked the other way

Now I don’t mind my man taking in the beauty another girl

But my love is worthy of a man who makes me feel like I’m his world

Ain’t it funny how you think I did you wrong

When I’m really feeling like I know I did you right

Baby tell me how a love can be so wrong?

Baby tell me how, ain’t it funny how?

Hey baby I cant wait to see ya

You’re the one I adore and I know

We ain’t got a long time

And I want you to feel just right

You take it fast I’ll take it slow

Three hours til I get home

And I know what your thinking

It’s been a while since I’ve seen my baby

I was wondering if you really wanted to

Meet me in the front in back or on the side

We could do those things that you like

All those things

Hey baby I cant wait to see ya

You’re the one I adore and I know

We ain’t got a long time

And I want you to feel just right

You take it fast I’ll take it slow

Two hours til I get home

And you know I’ve been thinking

About the way that you say you love me

I was wondering if you really wanted to

Tell me all the things that you think I wanna know

Like the places that we’ll go while we’re here

Fast and slow and,

Fast and slow and,

Fast and slow and,

Fast and slow and...

Hey baby I cant wait to see ya

You’re the one I adore and I know

We ain’t got a long time

And I want you to feel just right

You take it fast I’ll take it slow

My heart sings a melody

A song written so sweet

Inspired by the way move me

And by the energy you bring

Let’s go down beneath the waves

And stay under there for days

I don’t find the need to breathe

When you’re next to me

Your love leaves me wanting more

So I do the things I know

Keep fire burning in our souls

So won’t you tell me all I wanna know?

Let’s go down beneath the waves

And stay under there for days

I don’t find the need to breathe

When you’re next to me

My heart sings a melody

A song written so sweet

Inspired by the way move me

And by the energy you bring

Let’s go down beneath the waves

And stay under there for days

I don’t find the need to breathe

When you’re next to me

You Change album cover

Explain to me your position
And I’ll try to see the light
I’ve already heard it’s a lesson
For me to try to learn
But they say fool me once, fool me twice

And there won’t be a third time for you to try to break my heart
Or convince me that I don’t know better and maybe I should try to start

Explain to me, I will listen (I will listen)
How you think it’s fine to lie
Guess you look at it like an omission
And that may work for you
And you might fool me once, fool me twice

But there won’t be a third time for you to try to break my heart
Or convince me that I don’t know better and maybe I should try to start
So long you convinced me that we shouldn’t be apart

First time, shame on you
Two times, shame on me
Three days I waited
But you don’t seem to come around

And there won’t be a third time for you to try to break my heart
Or convince me that I don’t know better and maybe I should try to start
So long you convinced me that we shouldn’t be apart
(But you know I’m better off without you)
And there won’t be a third time for you to try to break my heart

From the first time you told me

Let me into your heart but don’t let it go

It was already done

You said wait, now, don’t fall too deep in love

‘Cause it cannot be undone

But I didn’t know

I thought that just maybe it could be me and you

Walking hand in hand just us two

I thought just maybe your heart would be true

And I could stop spending time looking for love

Because I found you

I was open, didn’t take too long for you to come to me

And my lonely heart

You were different from the start, too

I knew time was all we needed to make it

And now here we are, here we are

I thought that just maybe it could be me and you

Walking hand in hand just us two

I thought just maybe your heart would be true

And I could stop spending time looking for love

Because I found you

Spent all my time trying to see what love should be

(Spent all my time trying to see)

Vision of love showed me what I was meant to see

(A vision of what love is meant to be)

Through it all I’ve come to find what I needed so

(And through it all what I’ve come to find)

Was right here all the time

(It was right here all the time)

I thought that just maybe it could be me and you

Walking hand in hand just us two

I thought just maybe your heart would be true

And I could stop spending time looking for love

Because I found you

Taking each step so slowly

With hope that one day I

Will get off this ground again

But I know I’m gonna fly

You are light

You are joy

Sharing peace all around you

With your love I will open up

Possibility is all that’s out there now

Being open to feel the love

Is just the beginning now

You are light, you are joy

Sharing peace all around you

With your love I will open up

I took a chance to be

All that I dreamed

And now I’m learning to feel the love

That comes from inside of me

You are light, you are joy

Sharing peace all around you

With your love I will open up

If you could remember all the times when

We walked side by side

When you watched me grow into who I am

Then maybe it would bring you back to this world

Until then you’ll just be

The lost one

All the memories, run through me

Then it all fades to dark

When I try to, it hurts me

To bring back that love

To give up on you, my mother

Is the hardest part

But I can’t reach you when you’re just

The lost one

Maybe time will heal all these wounds

They say it heals everything

But where this pain cuts so deep

Will always be a scar

Tell me, just one thing

Before I can’t hear anymore

That you love me, because I love you

Though it seems so hard

To watch you fade into that dark hole

That I can’t get to, though I want to, and although you go, alone

Oh, it makes me

A lost one

Fairly certain that I really know you now

See myself in your eyes; in the way that you speak

Finally comfortable now, in another’s embrace

I look at you and then

You change

As I remain the same

Is this a game

That I don’t know how to play?

Then the next morning arrives

And you smile in light

And everything you put through melts behind the lies

(You) tell me one time, how you really care

As I fall back, and then

You change

As I remain the same

Is this a game,

That I don’t know how to play?

You changed into a person that I did not know

You fooled around with my heart

And I went right along, it’s all my fault

You dedicated the time, invigorated my mind and my soul

And I fell in love with you

I can’t believe it, I’ve fallen in love

But not a love that my heart dreamed of

It’s slowly beating, but it’s out of time

With the beat and the fault’s all mine

You told me baby, I’ll see you at three

I’m all alone and it’s three thirty

I can’t believe it, I’ve fallen in love

Times change and you don’t know which way the wind will blow

Only thing that’s sure, is the lesson you learn and how you grow

Maybe you need some time, to relax yourself and free your mind

And maybe work on you

I can’t believe it, I’ve fallen in love

But not a love that my heart dreamed of

It’S slowly beating, but it’s out of time

With the beat and the fault’s all mine

You told me baby, I’ll see you at three

I’m all alone and it’s three thirty

I can’t believe it, I’ve fallen in love

Sometimes love is not what it seems

But I knew right then, it was the third time, I told you, no more

I can’t believe it, I’ve fallen in love

But not a love that my heart dreamed of

It’S slowly beating, but it’s out of time

With the beat and the fault’s all mine

You told me baby, I’ll see you at three

I’m all alone and it’s three thirty

I can’t believe it, I’ve fallen in love

Oh lord, I can’t believe

What I’ve done to his heart

I made it bleed

I’ve been, been living a lie

And I never meant to hurt

Or make him cry

I have learned the hard way

By what I’ve done to you

I took took, took all of my chances

Now I’m only left with reverie

I’ve done all that I can

And I can’t give more than that

I would give my life

To go back and make things right

Oh lord, I can’t believe

What I’ve done to his heart

I made it bleed

Broken, the pieces are torn

And your heart has been left all alone

Oh lord, I can’t believe

What I’ve done to his heart

I made it bleed

For three days and nights I wondered if you were coming back to me

But now I’m seeing through our time apart that it wasn’t meant to be

I held on to something so wrong for fear that I would be alone

But when you’re crying for a broken love it’s time to make it on your own

I’m strong, so strong, never be afraid to make it alone

You lied, I cried, never again will I compromise

You liked to feel the power whenever you made me cry

I stayed up all night by the hour just trying to figure why

You never tried to make it alright, you said you had to be alone

You showed me a side to you and I showed you, no more

I’m strong, so strong, never be afraid to make it alone

You lied, I cried, never again will I compromise

Baby I told you no more

When you walked out the door

And you showed me that

I’m strong

I’m strong, so strong

Never be afraid to make it alone

You lied, I cried

Never again will I compromise

Finally I feel alive

I’ve waited all of my life

Knowing your here but we can’t

So patiently I hold back

Love can’t employ our intention now

We can’t break through

Feel the heat from the night

Take in all from the light

That cascades on you now

It’s showing us how

We can enjoy this moment now

Can’t we just break through

Just take me now

You know that I can’t stay

Don’t make me beg

Or just turn away

Love can’t employ our intention now

Can’t we just break through

Can we enjoy this moment now?

Can’t we just break through

Come over here baby

While the moon hangs low in the sky

The stars are shining so brightly

And I can see the universe in your eyes

I’m gonna free your mind tonight

Show you how to be with the one who knows what’s right

It’s been a million years since the star I see has died away

That doesn’t matter because the fire still burns the same

I’m gonna free your mind tonight

Show you how to be with the one who knows what’s right

Life is a short thing that will come but it won’t last

And just like that star still, our love will always last

I’m gonna free your mind tonight

Show you how to be with the one who knows what’s right

Lindsey Webster debut album

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

SOLO

CHORUS until cue to end

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

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

Lately I’ve been 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

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

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

Baby, I’m moving on

Hey, yea, Whoo!

I’m moving on child

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

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

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, but

I 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

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

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

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

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

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
