talk less, say more
love well, stay warm
take one, give two
it's all up to you

you say when and how
the way that we live and we die
choose wisely now
the way that we live and die
make each day count
the way that we live and die

walk slow, go far
be kind, heal hearts
be free, live long
be true to your own song

let go, take flight
reach out, touch sky
cut ties that bind
they're all in your mind

they say the rain always pours
and you can't make a buck if you don't own a dime
and though they'll never really tell you
everybody knows that poverty's a crime, yeah
now when you don't have a job
then people can't spare you any of their time
but when you're back in the money
then your friends, they'll be standing in a line, yeah
i was once lost now i'm found
thanks to my bank account

when I was all alone and didn't have a cent
you turned your back, kicked me when I was down
now that I'm back, you wanna be my friend
how do you like me now

now when you're hot then you're hot and when you're not
no one wants to know your name, jane
and all your big dreams, ani
they won't bring you the fortune or the fame, yeah
they say you can't be too pretty
and you never tell the truth when asked your age, babe
because you can't win big
if you don't even know you've got to play the game, yeah
i don't know how to be fake
i guess I'm just a mistake

when I was nobody, you couldn't give a damn
put down the sound until it sold and then
you claim to be my best and biggest fan
how do you like me now

i'm not holding grudges but don't think that I've forgotten
that you only started rooting when you knew that I would win
i'm not complaining that you're on my side now
but please tell me, won't you
where were you then?

02 How Do You Like Me.mp3

you think some stormy waves can sink this heart?
you think some anger can tear me apart?
you think your will can overpower mine?
you'd better take a deeper look inside

bring it on
all your hate and your anger
bring it on
all your fear and your doubt
bring it on
all your pain and your suffering
this crazy love is gonna lay you out

you think for you to live that someone must die
what's mine is yours but yours will never be mine
you like to think that you can win this fight
why can't you see that baby I'm on your side?

cause that's love baby
bring it on

Bring It On

I Hate Goodbyes (Live)

Who’s to know what’s meant to be?
Who can say what’s not my destiny?
I chose the road that called to me
I traveled it alone until the end found me
I was a little frightened there’d be no one waiting here
I know I’ve been wrong before
But I’ve never felt so clear

Chorus:	He’s the one that I need when I’m in over my head
		He’s the one that I love more than chocolate or bread
		He’s the sun and the moon and my very best friend
		He’s the one

At his side, I’m invincible
In his eyes, I’m always beautiful
In his arms I found serenity
And the joy of being loved just for being me
Though he doesn’t have much money or our genealogy
Looking through my eyes you’ll see
He’s got everything I need

He’s the kindest soul you’ll ever find
He heals my wounds and reads my mind
There’s nothing that he would not do to see me happy
Just like you…
Like you do…

He’s the one that I’ll need even more when you’re gone
In my grief, I’ll be weak and I’ll need him to be strong
He’ll console me and hold me, help me carry on
He’s the one
He’s the one…
