Come On Over

Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Water tastes like wine, water tastes like wine
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Don't mean nothing if there's no fire, don't mean nothing is there's no fire
Don't mean nothing if there's no fire, don't mean nothing is there's no...
Fire in your heart, burning in your soul
Don't mean nothing if there's no fire, don't mean nothing is there's no fire
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Can you feel me, I can be your dream
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Don't nobody where you are going
Don't tell your daddy where you are going
Don't tell your mama where you are going
Don't tell nobody where you go
Cause they don't need to know where your horses roam
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house
Can you feel me, I can be your dream
Come on over to my house baby, come one to my house

Different Kind of Love
03:27
|
|||
Did my best to love you
Seemed simple enough
I've been trying so hard
But I'm falling apart
And the plans you had just weren't for me
Cause your heart has gone to another place
And this emptiness inside is an all familiar space
Cause she found a different kind of love
One that lifts her up high above the clouds
She won't see me anymore
A different kind of love is all she's looking for
In the back of my mind
I've played it over
Every frame and every picture
Trying to bring you closer
Seems I only knew an image but I did not know your heart
Was never for me to find
And the dream I held so close was only in my mind
Cause she found a different kind of love
One that lifts her up high above the clouds
She won't see me anymore
A different kind of love is all she's looking for
Cause your heart has gone to another place
And this emptiness inside is an all familiar space
Cause she found a different kind of love
One that lifts her up high above the clouds
She won't see me anymore
A different kind of love is all she's looking for

I got your letter just the other day
I could read between the lines what you had to say
I wouldn't have it any other way
Was getting pretty tired of these games we play
So here we are, we're just worlds apart
Were we any closer at the start?
Now you're on your own
You got somebody but you're still all alone
Now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done now wrong
Tried hard to get it back
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack
Somebody told me that you had changed
Since the day my love had become estranged
Well that's ok, you just put on that face.
In your heart I know there's an empty space
So here we are, we're just worlds apart
Were we any closer at the start?
Now you're on your own
You got somebody but you're still all alone
Now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done now wrong
Tried hard to get it back
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack
So here we are, we're just worlds apart
Were we any closer at the start?
Now you're on your own
You got somebody but you're still all alone
Now that the feeling's gone
I believe that I've done now wrong
Tried hard to get it back
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack

I'm Sorry
04:14
|
|||
Things were easy then
Love had built us a home
Over time the wall grew thin
Now they're crumbling down
A change is creeping in
Ain't no use to pretend
Your face could never hide a thing
Our love has run aground
And this silence ain't no way to live
I never meant to hurt you but I did
I only wanted to show you how I feel
I can't give you back the tears that you cried
For that I'm sorry
I won't hold a grudge
It ain't the way I was raised
It would be easier to get passed the pain
If we had someone to blame
If I could just let you go
I never meant to hurt you but I did
I only wanted to show you how I feel
I can't give you back the tears that you cried
For that I'm sorry
I could learn to forgive
I could learn to forget
But I want you know
I've got no regrets
I never meant to hurt you but I did
I only wanted to show you how I feel
I can't give you back the tears that you cried
For that I'm sorry

A Man Like Me
03:45
|
|||
This is my final confession
My testimony
If I can't find a love that's true
There's nothing in this world for me
I can't live on with this life
Without you by my side
You are everything that a man like me needs
I played my cards on the table
Laid my heart out on the line
You turned a light on in the darkness
You showed me how to shine
I ain't scared anymore
For you gave me strength to fight
You are everything that a man like me needs
A man like me ain't got nothing left to lose
A man like me ain't got nothing left to prove
You rescued my heart and you set my soul free
You are everything to a man like me
I had all but given up
On ever finding love
Left here on my own
Whenever push came to shove
And you saw through the pain
I believe you're here to stay
You are everything a man like me needs
A man like me ain't got nothing left to lose
A man like me ain't got nothing left to prove
You rescued my heart and you set my soul free
You are everything to a man like me
Every day I'm feeling stronger
Cause every night you hold me tight
When I look into the mirror at the man I have become
I think of you and I realize
A man like me has got so much to lose
A man like me knows he owes it all to you
You rescued my heart and you set my soul free
You are everything to a man like me

I Get Joy
03:33
|
|||
Giving me the strength that I need
Your love has gone and brought me to my knees
You turned my world around
Every night I hope and I pray
Your love will always be coming my way
I feel like I've been found
I get joy from the things that you give
I get joy cause you make me wanna live for another day
Honey I get joy
I get joy from the things that you do
For loving me so much, it's true
All I can say, honey I get joy
When I'm tired and I'm feeling down
Like a doctor you just make me come around
Your love's the sweetest pill
When I think about what might have been
To not know of your love would have been the greatest sin
You know it gives me a chill.
I get joy from the things that you give
I get joy cause you make me wanna live for another day
Honey I get joy
I keep coming to your door
You're like the heavens above
That go on forever
You've got so much love
I get joy from the things that you give
I get joy cause you make me wanna live for another day
Honey I get joy
I get joy from the things that you do
For loving me so much, it's true
All I can say, honey I get joy

Broken Man
04:13
|
|||
I didn't read it in the paper
Hear it on the radio
I didn't watch it on the news
Seems a telephone line
It can always find
A way to spread the blues
I was on the road
Show to show
Like an ordinary day
Now it's playing over in my mind
How could I ever bring you back again
Some people die when they live by the sword
Give all they have just to get a little more
I keep on trying to understand what it is
That breaks a broken man
Give me something to believe in
Something just to get me through the day
I turned my back and when I turned back around
Every thing had changed
Harpers dying, guitars lie in silence
All the music fades
Even all the king's horses and men
They were trying in vain
Some people die when they live by the sword
Give all they have just to get a little more
I keep on trying to understand what it is
That breaks a broken man
Some people die when they live by the sword
Give all they have just to get a little more
I keep on trying to understand what it is
That breaks a broken man

Back at the beginning
Living in a perfect paradise
Caught in this web you were spinning
My love for you would soon be my demise
I'm running out of time
Gone without a trace
You bled my heart and left it bone dry
So it's time to take my place
Among the ones you loved and left to cry
I gotta get over it
Cause you don't love me
I gotta get over it
Cause you don't love me
Filling up my days
Telling my self I was better off
That you were just a phase
Still I find it hard to move on, I can't move on.
I gotta get over it
Cause you don't love me
I gotta get over it
This is not how it used to be
I gotta get over it
Back to realty
I gotta get over it
Cause you don't love me
Maybe I should thank you
For showing me my mistakes
You can't learn to fix something
If it never breaks
Next times this happens
I'll see it for what it is
I will never fall again for black widow's kiss
Back at the beginning...
I gotta get over it
Cause you don't love me
I gotta get over it
This is not how it used to be
I gotta get over it
Back to realty
I gotta get over it
Cause you don't love me
