Sleepless Night

Intuition 02:05
lyrics
You couldn’t help it You were getting hasty To get the hell out of here You couldn’t fool me My mind racing The intuition was the eyes of the blind me * For the sake of the friendship Or the romance of our precious years You didn’t have to choose the way You chose to break my heart in two *repeat

Stars in New York City 03:06
lyrics
You’re like the stars in New York City You can’t see them, but you know they’re there I wait for you When you travel to China And to South America too * I haven’t kissed anybody’s but your mouth I think of you when I get lonely But I know I don’t love you yet I know you were just drunk When you said you loved me the first night - But Johnny boy, Anyhow, You’re on my mind tonight You’re like the stars in New York City You can’t wish upon them, but I still do And wait for you As the dreamers do In spite of the risk of being a fool * repeat

Stranger 02:52
lyrics
Stranger I’ve had you for so long Under my skin, under my roof Should have I known when I first felt This strange feeling in my gut * That you weren’t giving giving Like I was giving giving Oh, now you’re a stranger - So close, so close, so close to me Oh I loved you like my kin Stranger You’ve got to be kidding To be walking right in Here to the house my daddy built I pushed you off the window Of my sweet home And I heard you scream * But this time I won’t give in To the love you aren’t giving Oh, you’re just a stranger - So long, so long, so long my muse Oh I loved you like my kin ** Stranger – stranger – stranger * And this time I won’t give in Like I was giving giving Oh you’re just a stranger So long, so long, so long my muse Oh I loved you like my kin

Whiskey to Tea 03:06
lyrics
I wonder if you can tell From the way I stare The way I hold you When we say goodbye late at night Hesitant to let your arms slip Or the cigarette smell on your lips Oh why, Can’t you say you love me? * From whiskey to tea From day to night I love you, I do - Damn neon signs Blind my heart I love you, I do Remember when the winter ended And we second met? Everyday we spent together From day to dawn We were too scared to admit that So the secrets we swallowed down deep They all Say that you love me *repeat
5.
Show Me What You've Got 03:04
lyrics
Take back the messes you made The mixed message you gave And take ‘em all home I’ll sit back and watch the sunset Well, life’s not that bad I’m not losing alone * There’s lots of different faces in the world But I wanna see yours I wanna see yours right now - There’s lots of different places in the world I wanna I wanna run So show me what you’ve got I’ll come visit the windows I passed That’d been waiting on me That’d been waiting for a fool It’s a shame you forgot what it takes To open my door Don’t knock anymore *repeat

Happy New Year 02:20
lyrics
I was walking on the street Tryin to get to the party On Fort Greene Place I was just talking about you With a friend who said He was proud of my decision Mm mm mm There you pop up on the street With a half smile With your hands in your pockets I hid behind a car Then turned around and said ‘Hi, Happy New Year’ You stood there still Is there a Universe talking in my head Is there a Universe showing in my eyes There’s you
7.
Sleepless Night 02:20
lyrics
I’ve been here before A sleepless night I know it’ll end I just don’t know when I counted the days since you’d left I’m counting the days till you leave again * I wanna be the one who leaves So I don’t know what is left behind For once I wanna be the one who leaves So I don’t know what is left behind You want me in your life, But it’ll cost my tears It’s a struggle With no right answers to fight for For me to be happy or for you to be Why should it be either and not both? *repeat
8.
Slow Dance Song 03:47
lyrics
When you hold me, I feel home Lying next to you, You sleep like a baby Before the morning comes, I’m out the door Cause when the morning comes, Last night’s you is gone * Do you love me or Do you want to love? Whenever we meet, It’s so damn confusing - You sleep in my songs Like a long lost story Whenever we meet, You come alive again My sisters worry I’d get hurt But I think I know you Though the questions still echo in our heads But does it matter What they say? When we share this moment It’s what everybody’s only dreaming about *repeat I’m young enough to dream But too old to get lost Young enough to dream But too old to get lost in it
9.
Then, Fade 03:56
lyrics
Take me onto the back of your bike I wanna ride to the Sunset Park Nobody will recognize The tear lines on my face when it’s dark * Ooh change of your heart Ooh change of your heart - Then, fade Don’t shake me I won’t take it now Just fade Don’t shade it I won’t believe it now Always falling for the popular kind Who gives me the eyes but not their minds Lonely like that awkward kid Who’s left alone at the cheerleaders’ lounge *repeat Your heart In spite of the Heart. Ache.
10.
I Want You Only 03:02
lyrics
Dear my pretty man, Don’t be scared away When I tell you that I want you only Why do they Always take the heart That loves them the most And break it in two? Do you fear, my pretty redheaded man? Or do you feel the same When I say I want you only They call me crazy When I’m only crazy about you So why don’t you take my crazy heart And see if you’re crazy about me too? For I want you only
11.
What's a Girl to Do? 03:04
lyrics
On a rainy day like this Feeling lazy to get up My room is tiny and dark But this is now a place that I call home Without you it took me a while To feel happy again I know you can bring me down Anytime, however you want to * Love is strong, But I’m weak when it comes to him What can I do? What’s a girl to do? It’s out of my hands I walked on a misty night New York is as warm as LA Global warming has saved me From feeling colder without you here * Someday I’ll take my mom To see Niagara Falls from the Canadian side Someday I’ll love again And settle down in Nashville like Sheryl Crow Someday it could be you Who whishes that you never left me My friends say I get wistful when I drink much And I’m forgetful
