spring weather has begun 
can't wait for the egg hunt 
I wanna celebrate with all my friends 
praise the lord for the love he sends 
it will be a re-birthday 
come risin' Sunday 
you can stake your claim on painted eggs 
hidden in the backyard hedges 

but the Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny 
is the best treat since whipped cream and fresh honey
I'd hop around the whole town block  
and search around the country 
for that Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny 

I've waited all year to savour 
the taste of that sweet flavour 
that vanilla coated sugar treat 
made to make my day complete 

yeah the Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny 
is the best treat since whipped cream and fresh honey
I'd hop around the whole town block  
and search around the country 
for that Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny 

yeah the one that always gives me the munchies  
is the Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny
I hope to be the one to be so lucky 
with the Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny 
the Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny

Yellow Marshmallow Easter Bunny

I wish I could date you 
I wish I had the courage just to ask 
even if I had the nerve to 
well it would be a mountain of a task
when I think about it
I can only doubt it 
by crawlin’ in a ground pit 
I cannot get around this whole damn thing

I’m lookin’ at a rock too tall for me to climb 
or the kind of monster I can't fight 

I can strive I can strive 
but I Can't Get Close To You 
if I try even if I try 
I Can't Get Close To You 

I wish I could convince you
I wish you would try to hear me out 
even if I was to tell you 
well you would only think I talk too loud 
if I ask about it
would you be astounded 
what would it amount to 
would you shut me out to everything

like any bit of hope you'd ever say alright
or if you’d have me on your mind 


out of reach
the distance is too long  
unless you come to town 
and help me bring it on

Can't Get Close To You

cold river waters flow
to where pellicans glide
waves crash down on beaches
as dolphins swim high tides

lust is the attractor 
when beasts go on the hunt 
nature is the factor 
when storms block out the sun 

	this is what Nature’s Meant To Be
	mm hmm doused in life’s destiny 
	mm hmm now where are you and me?
	mm hmm hmm

we as dreamers 
get blinded by lost flings
we can't find each other 
by chasing other things 

	this ain’t how Nature’s Meant To Be
	mm hmm doused in life’s destiny 
	mm hmm now where are you and me?
	mm hmm housed in life's fantasies

we gotta get together
and ride the ocean waves
fishes swim forever
and we should do the same
in any kind of weather
you and I are built to glide the same way pellicans fly
take me and I’ll take you there 

	ain’t this how Nature’s Meant To Be?
	mm hmm - doused in life’s destiny 
	mm hmm - now where are you and me?
	mm hmm - housed in life's fantasies

	this is what Nature’s Meant To Be
	mm hmm doused in life’s destiny 
	mm hmm now where are you and me?
	mm hmm

Nature's Meant To Be

Looking innocent 
Dresses in her magic style 
She's the sweetest thing 
To come around in a long long while 
Looking smooth as wool 
Wearing cut-off jeans n' a smile 
Nothing is concealed 
Other than her running wild 

Watch out n' run 
She'll shoot you down without a gun
She's on the hunt 
Unarmed But Dangerous

What would be the harm 
In sharing just a beer or two 
She is such a charm 
Knows the way to enlighten you 
The power of her skills 
Can turn a raincloud into blue 
Brighten up your days 
Until the dark comes shining through 

When her web is spun 
She’ll dig a hole for another one 
Trapping everyone she wants  
Unarmed But Dangerous

She is going after 
Every wild card 
Dealing with disaster 
Aiming at your heart 
Stop n’ look n’ listen
She is on the stalk
When you see her coming
turn away and walk 

Watch out n' run 
She'll shoot you down without a gun 
She's on the hunt 
Unarmed But Dangerous
When her web is spun 
She’ll dig a hole for another one 
Trapping everyone she wants 
Unarmed But Dangerous

Unarmed But Dangerous

I'm walking 
On my own road 
It ain't brick and it ain't gold 
And it leads where I may never know
But I don't worry 
Where I'm going 
Cause I ain't where I ain't sowing 
The seeds of the current crops - I'm growing 

I'm breathing 
Cool air around me
It ain't rich but it ain't thin 
But it is here for me to breathe 
I don't worry 
If I'm standing 
This ain't heaven but I ain't crash landing 
On a bed of nails so I'm just - dandy 

I know where I am 
When I am where I stand 
In The Present Of My Time 
I do what I can 
While I have me the chance 
In The Present Of My Time 

By dancing 
With the moment 
Not tomorrow and not the past 
You can live your dream and make your whole life - happen 
So don't you worry 
Where you step now 
You're ahead of where you been 
When you lived outside of your - own skin

In The Present Of My Time

Where Sparks Won't Take To The Air

A precious metal trophy 
Is ultimate to win 
Would it would feel right to hold it tight 
After giving luck a spin 
I wanted to do something 
I thought that I could prove 
I could be the guy to take the prize 
Never thought that I could lose 

Ok I could not reach the top 
Ok I took what I had got 
It wasn't fame 
But there is No Shame 
Ringing in second  
There is No Shame in the game 

A consolation prize 
Is second not to none 
I vied for gold but lost my roll 
And wound up being outdone 
‘Cause honor don’t live in bullions 
Of 24 karat dust 
A respectful name comes if you play 
By validating trust 

Next time I'm on the field 
I won't be playing so hard 
I'll take the time wait at the line 
Before running the extra yard

No Shame

verse 1:   
Unused tickets 
Tacked up on the fridge 
Don't want to talk about 
Things I never did

I lay my cards down 
When I get a flush 
And when it comes to you
 I can never get enough

pre-chorus 1:
 Let's blow it all and be reckless
 Let's have a ball just say yes

chorus: 
Oh... once you've tasted
Love like this 
You'll drink a case of it 
Oh… like a day at the races
 or a night in Vegas
Let's get WASTED ON LOVE

verse 2: 
Steal me away 
For a slow dance or two  
Throw a private party  
My partner is you

There's no perfect timing
 It’s never too soon  
Baby 'come midnight
 We’ll be howling at the moon

pre-chorus 2: 
Oh let em say we're senseless 
We're running for the fences

repeat chorus

Wasted On Love

verse 1: 
Running late from early
Bolting on adrenaline
You always gotta hurry
Sixteen hours then be rolling again

pre-chorus 1: 
Got no time for nothing
No time to let me in
Can’t spare a measly minute
There's no way that you can begin 
You’re becoming distant

chorus: 
So I left a note by your window
Now I’m traveling on faraway roads 
And I won't be returning home soon 
but - I Ain’t Giving Up On You 

verse 2: 
Riding a thousand miles
Colorado down to Baton Rouge
I’m on the back of a stake-bed
And the weather is a hundred-and-two

pre-chorus 2: 
Trying to earn a living 
Trying to find my way 
Wish I could buy you the present 
That I promised to you back in the day 
I hope you will be waiting for me 

chorus: 
I left that note by your window
That I’m traveling on faraway roads 
And I won't be returning home soon 
but - I Ain’t Giving Up On You 
No-oh-no-oh


pre-chorus 3: 
Got no time for nothing
No time to get back in
Can’t spare a measly minute
There's no way to re-begin
Sorry for the inconvenience 

chorus: 
‘cause I left that note by your window
That I’m traveling on faraway roads 
And I won't be returning home soon 
but - I Ain’t Giving Up On You 
I Ain’t Giving Up On You

Ain't Giving Up On You

Blue is the color that you love 
Blue is your choice selection of 
Dresses, shirts and purses, your favourite things to buy 
You love blue and I love you 

Blue is the colour of your eyes 
Blue is the reflection from the sky 
It bounces off your make-up, looks great on all your wear 
You love blue and I love you 

Blue is the hue you don't see on me 
Blue is my feeling when you leave 
You step out for the evening, hold the hand of another man 
But you love blue and I love you 

Blue is the colour you love most 
Blue is me feeling like a ghost 
You glance directly through me but never see the glow 
You love blue and I love you 
You love blue and I love you
