I’D LIKE TO THINK
Produced by Atomic Beats
Written by Keelan
From “Year Of The Unicorn” (2013-2014)

[Verse 1:]
I’d like to think that you haven’t moved on
You pretend to be so strong
But every night, you’re sleepin’ alone
And I’d like to think that you won’t get over
One day when we get older
I know we’re gon’ remember the things we had together

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
The nights you spend outside our home, are they so cold?
I cry a river every time I’m ridin’ solo
I know you have another, I’m still alright, don’t bother
You must be movin’ out so I can be movin’ on
You put your every effort in your boring day job 
I bury thoughts of mine in hard work every day, love
I’m strivin’ for the better, this state won’t last forever
But I’d still like to think you still love me

[Chorus:]
It’s rainin’ outside, but it’s pourin’ inside
I’m still wonderin’ why we were havin’ that fight
Baby, oh ooh-woah ooh-woah ooh-woah
Yeah eh-yeah eh-yeah eh-yeah
I’m lovin’ the moment we were sayin’ goodbye
You don’t believe a word right? Cuz neither do I
I say oh ooh-woah ooh-woah ooh-woah
Can’t believe we still got too much to hide

[Verse 2:]
I’d like to think that you wanna linger
The ring is still on your finger
Won’t take it off for anybody
I’d like to think that you buy your own things
Sometimes I can’t help thinkin’
The money must come from somewhere else, you can’t afford it

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
I’d like to think you just pretend you’re all okay
But who can be like that when they just lost a soulmate?
I know you think about it, even when you’re surrounded
By friends who never learn to share a thing, it’s so wrong
I’m way beyond mentally damaged that I’m gettin’ mean
I guess you ain’t got time to notice but I’ve really been
Here’s what I hate about cha, I thought you knew me better
But all you did was walk away. Now see?

[Chorus:]
It’s rainin’ outside, but it’s pourin’ inside
I’m still wonderin’ why we were havin’ that fight
Baby, oh ooh-woah ooh-woah ooh-woah
Yeah eh-yeah eh-yeah eh-yeah
I’m lovin’ the moment we were sayin’ goodbye
You don’t believe a word right? Cuz neither do I
I say oh ooh-woah ooh-woah ooh-woah
Can’t believe we still got too much to hide

[Bridge:]
Ah aye… Ah-ah-ah aye…
I’d like to think that you can’t let go
But you’re so afraid, you can’t let it show
Ah aye… Ah-ah-ah aye…
I’d like to think truth will be told
But I’m so afraid, I can’t let you know

[Rap:]
My friends all say that you may think it over but
I’d like to think that you made your decision cuz
I like the way it hurts, don’t wanna think too much
I think it’s kinda cool cuz we can do the things we love
You buried all your fire in the broken toilet seat
I threw away my dreams in thoughts about “what do we eat?”
And all the time I made you mad, you made me sad, we made it so bad
A happy ending shouldn’t look like that

[Chorus:]
It’s rainin’ outside, but it’s pourin’ inside
I’m still wonderin’ why we were havin’ that fight
Baby, oh ooh-woah ooh-woah ooh-woah
Yeah eh-yeah eh-yeah eh-yeah
I’m lovin’ the moment we were sayin’ goodbye
You don’t believe a word right? Cuz neither do I
I say oh ooh-woah ooh-woah ooh-woah
Can’t believe we still got too much to hide

[Outro:]
It’s rainin’ outside…
But it’s pourin’ inside…
Sayin’ oh ooh…
Baby, oh ooh…
We’re sayin’ goodbye…
I’m still wonderin’ why…
Sayin’ oh ooh…
Can’t believe we still got too much to hide

[Verse 1:]
This is you, this is me, in the yearbook
Filled up with energy, hey, here, look
Good ol’ days, good ol’ days
We were so happy, I wonder what it took

We gave everybody funny nicknames
Life could never be exactly the same
What’d we say? What’d we say?
If we forget each other, it’ll be a damn shame

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
But some of us gotta move on with life
Some of us find it hard to say goodbye
Some of us still, some of us still
Linger on the wonder years in the past

Some of us are now married with child
Some of us are dressed in suits and cool ties
Some of us will, some of us will not
Be here tonight

[Chorus:]
Here’s to us, and to remembering
I hope you won’t forget the ups and downs
When it was you and me
Here’s to you, and to us all, let’s drink
To knowing when we have finished this round
Our love still means a thing
Here’s to us

[Verse 2:]
When I think about the tears that we shared
God, it’s good to know that you all still care
We rocked on, we rocked on
Though the high school days were such a nightmare

I miss us having fun together
Promised we’d be friends forever
We marched on, we marched on
Through all the fires, we’d never say never	

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
So none of us can forget the good times
‘Cuz if we do, it’s gonna be such a crime
All of us are, all of us are wonderful
And what we had was sublime

We were saying that we’d stay side by side
Breakin’ legs on this rollercoaster ride
When it gets dark, when it gets dark
We’ll turn on the lights

[Chorus]

[Rap:]
(Here’s to us…)
Remember when we took the trip to the forest
We got lost and then it rained, we got so wet
We got drunk and then we slept in the wrong beds
We made a pact, becomin’ best friends

[Bridge:]
Here’s to you, here’s to me
Here’s to her, and here’s to him
And here’s to all the memories
To all the teachers, and all they teach us
To all the lessons that we’ve learned
Experiences that we’ve earned

[Chorus:]
Let’s drink to them, oh! Let’s drink to everything!
I hope you won’t forget the ups and downs
When it was you and me
Here’s to you, and to us all, let’s drink
To knowing when we have finished this round
Our love still means a thing

Here’s to us, and to remembering
I hope you won’t forget the ups and downs
When it was you and me
Here’s to you, and to us all, let’s drink
To knowing when we have finished this round
Our love still means a thing
Here’s to us
Here’s to us…
Here’s to us!

BEST FRIEND

Written by Keelan
From “Life In Black And White” (2010-2011)
 
[Verse 1:]
I’ve got a best friend
Someone who’d stay with me ‘til the end, and
Someone who said that it wouldn’t change
What were you thinking?
You forgot me when you thought about suicide
Could you see all the worries in my eyes?
You think that saying sorry that I’ve cried
All these nights would change it back
You’d better go and think again

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
You forgot it all, everything that we said
All your problems, you said I always knew best
What’s the reason for you leavin'? All that shit you’re keepin' from me
You’re turnin' me into a fool
Now you’re lyin' there on the hospital bed
It’s a nightmare, you have caused a big mess
I don’t wanna care about it, I’m so done believin' in you
Now that I’ve heard that huge news!

[Chorus:]
So I wait until you wake up from the coma
Just to tell it to your face, it’s all over
Don’t you dare expect me to bring flowers
Just not now, not anymore
I can’t find a way to make peace with your dramas
Now it’s time you went home, sharin' with your mama
I won’t hear a thing, it’s hard for me to think
You were once my best friend

[Verse 2:]
How ‘bout the days we hung out together
You told me that you’d be there forever
You’re a liar, or something so similar to that
You lied!
You lied to me, you said you were alright
I thought that all that shit was off your mind
I don’t mind it anymore
To me, you’re rotten to the core

[Rap:]
I thought that you were my best friend
You’d walk with me until the end
Never cared about the rainy days
Because I knew you’d always stay
Said you’d always stay but one day, you strayed away
From the path that we had drawn together

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Then you went on and found your stupid own way
Now I can’t even bear to look at your face
I don’t wanna hear you talkin', now you watch me walkin' out on you
Can’t even show my sympathy for you...

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
If you can’t explain, how could you leave me this way
Don’t you take my hand and tell me that it’s okay!
‘Cause I can’t take it anymore
Go on and have your little floor!
Have I told you that if you tried to kill yourself
There’s no other way for you but to burn in hell?
And now you want system restore
How dare you say you were just bored?!
Can we just go back to how we used to be?
When you and me shared every dirty little secret?
No, I just can’t play pretend no more!

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
You were once my best friend
You were once my best friend
You were once my best friend
But I can’t play pretend no more
I guess this is the end
How can I call you friend?
How can I do that when
To me, you’re rotten to the core?
Ooh woah… Oh ooh woah... Oh oh woah... Ooh yeah...
(No more best friend...) - [repeat till faded]

[Rap 1:]
No, he’s not the one! My friends say he’s not the one!
My heart says he’s not the one! My head says he’s not the one!
My mind says he’s not the one! But somewhere so deep inside...
There’s a voice that never lies, sayin’ that he’s the one!

[Rap 2:]
Where you’re at, you can take me there
Boy, I don’t care, ‘cause I got you there
Boy, I can get ‘em all off my hair
Just take me there, could be anywhere
I can say you’re the one for me
And I can wait till you finally see
I’m in love so deep, you’re in love so deep
We’re in love for keeps, I’m in love with my boyfriend

[Verse 1:]
Get me outta here and take me home
Somewhere far, so we could be alone
Tell me somethin' sweet and comfort me
Then make me feel your love and set me free
Let me put my fingers through your hair
Open up your mind and take me there
Fix my heart where it’s been torn apart
But this time I’m not gonna wish upon a star

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
I’m not gonna like a sudden kiss
But if it was you, I could get used to this
I just wanna hold you all the time
I love the way that both your hands fit mine
Love that look on your face when you sleep
I’m not ready for a talk about relationships
But I can’t help fallin' way too deep…
(I am in too deep...)

[Chorus:]
Why are we still running anymore?
Now my heart is like an open door
I could feel the spring breeze right through my chest
Run out of memories that are sad
Put 'em on mine, let me feel your lips
(I think that...) You’re for me to be in love so deep
(I sing it’s...) Like a fairy tale that’s lost and found
(And if you ask...) You’re my boyfriend now

[Verse 2:]
Like I've been alone for way too long
So without you, it feels way too wrong
Kinda miss you every night and day
But I won’t wish that you were never away
Baby, I’m in love with how it hurts
Then I know I’m lovin' you so much
Boy, I’m not a fan of long goodbyes
But I don’t want you always stayin' on my mind

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Love it when you hold me from the back
It makes me feel like we’re a train on a track
Always knowin' just what to do
And how to love as if there’s nothin' to lose
Baby, I’ve been through the highs and lows
Love the way you wanna take it nice and slow
I just wanna let the whole world know…
(Let the whole world know...)

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
My boyfriend now… (My boyfriend now...)
My boyfriend now… (My boyfriend now...)
Ooh whoa…
I got a big crush on you and I’d never let you go
Never let you go, never let you go
Never let you get away from here, I’d never let you disappear
I’ma keep ya in my arms, ‘cause baby boy, I need your warmth
So whatcha wanna, whatcha wanna, whatcha wanna do?
Boy, whatcha wanna, whatcha wanna, whatcha wanna say?
‘Cause I’m not gonna, never gonna stop thinking of you
And boy I need ya, boy I miss ya every night and day

[Rap 2]

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
(It's a fairy tale cuz you're my boyfriend now...)
My boyfriend now… (My boyfriend now...)
My boyfriend now… (My boyfriend now...)
And I’m…
I’m in love with my boyfriend, yeah...
I’m in love with my boyfriend, yeah...
Ooh whoa…

MY NEXT TEAR

Written by Keelan
From “Life In Black And White” (2010-2011)

[Intro:]
I can’t stop wondering “what could have been?”
But the thoughts of you are taking over me
Ooh... Ooh ooh... Ooh aah... Ooh aah... Aah ooh yeah...

[Verse 1:]
Now I think I must have owed you like so much in my last life
Otherwise it must be the debt from many past lives together
‘Cause I’ve gone on and on and thought since the day you caught my eyes
I’ve screwed up in my relationships, so don’t you dare ask me “what’s the matter?”

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Here’s the first one, we were datin'
You disrupted all my feelings when you fell for me
And the next one, you kept tellin'
Me to break up, without knowin' what you did to me
I gotta jump in a pool of nonsense feelings
Just to get over you, you
I gotta try, try to make you forgotten
I’m scared of what I might do

[Chorus:]
All the tears I’ve cried were all about the one
Who got away when love was not enough
To make him stay no more, oh what a waste!
On the road I’m gonna take, you can’t be there
I won’t be starin' back at you because dear
My next tear won’t be about you

[Verse 2:]
The third guy I dated was you, it couldn’t even last two weeks
We haven’t talked, really talked, you know, then what’s the point of best friends forever?
I’ve moved on to so many people, but then it made me sick
I thought it over and realized without you, my life would've been much better

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
So frustrated, devastated
I ran looking for anything, look at what I found
Must be something, but just not love
I was happy, buildin' my hopes, but it didn’t work out
I can’t believe that I cheated on him
Just because of a one-night stand, then
I ended up gettin' myself tangled up
With him who tore me up again!

[Chorus]

[Bridge 1:]
There won’t be a next tear...
After spending these years
On crying, crying, crying and crying for you...
So hear me, dear!

[Rap:]
All the time that you been around
Lookin' after me, at least that’s what you said
Saying yes or no to everything I do
But look at what I find out
You just spin me right 'round
This time this life is mine now
Magnificent, so wonderful!
Significant, yeah, beautiful!
Without you, everything is so bright
Look at things by my own eyes, my own point of view
Don’t need you, ooh, ooh
Feel free to go, ooh, ooh, yeah!
Nod your head or shake your head
It makes you think that you’re the best
You don’t need to second guess
To know that I’ll still be your friend
But you’re nothing to me, man
Won’t be seeing you again
There’ll be no “auf wiedersehen”
(Goodbye…)

[Bridge 2:]
Now I stand against you, I’m feeling so brand new
No more under the influence of you, oh yeah…

[Chorus]

(All the tears I've cried...
All the tears I've cried about you...
Without you... I'm better off...
On my road you can't...
On my road you can't be there, dear...
My next tear...)

BED AND THE ATTIC (MY BOYFRIEND IV)
Produced by Adamack
Written by Keelan
From “Future On Display” (2011)

[Verse 1:]
He wakes up in the attic
This is not dramatic
He turns the bad luck into magic
His body parts contradict
Now life is no more tragic, yeah
(But more than ever, he becomes aware)

The sun’s not even up yet
But his sun’s lying here on this bed
He’s trying to forget about the whole mess
The breaking of his heart, the pain of his mother’s death, yeah

[B-Section:]
From the smell of his hair, to the depth in his eyes
And the scary darkness between us, it makes me cry
I don’t wanna say goodbye to anybody, not anymore
But the joy that you bring is the most dangerous thing
It’s like you’re injecting a full syringe of fear into my rusted brain, oh yeah

[Chorus:]
‘Cause I’m scared of ever loving someone this much
I’ve gotten used to all the pain and the way it hurts
But you came and things changed
And I’m asking myself to change
But it ain’t that easy, I need time
To feel your loving in this bed and the attic
I’m sick of having hopes, I don’t believe in magic
I’m on the edge of giving everything up
But you showed and said “stop”
And you hold me in your arms

[Verse 2:]
He can’t believe that this is it
But the hands are fitted
And the man right next to him
Is like having been cut out for this boy
(To fix his heavily damaged system)

He used to be a victim
Mistreated by all those involved with him
He ain’t gon’ tell if this is meant to be
Just knows that he really, really does love this moment

[B-Section]

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Me in your arms, oh, to feel your warmth, no
I can’t believe it, pinch me, tell me that it’s true
I need more time, yeah, to be uncharmed, yeah
To love someone with all my heart, because it’s you...
(Love with all my heart because it's you... Oh yeah...)

[Chorus:]
‘Cause I’m scared of ever loving someone this much
I’ve gotten used to all the pain and the way it hurts
But you came and things changed
(You came and then things changed)
And I’m asking myself to change
(I ask myself to change, it's all because of you...)
But it ain’t that easy, I need time
To feel your loving in this bed and the attic
(I feel your loving here in the attic...)
I’m sick of having hopes, I don’t believe in magic
(I'm sick of hoping, I'm done with magic...)
I’m on the edge of giving everything up
(I'm on the edge of giving it all up, hah... Hah... Hah...)
But you showed and said “stop”
And you hold me in your arms

[Outro:]
You hold me in your arms
You hold me in your arms
You make me sing, yeah, yeah, eh yeah
You hold me in your arms
You hold me in your arms
You’re making me believe again
And I sing…
I’m in love with my boyfriend
I’m in love with my boyfriend
I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love, with him and…
I’m in love with my boyfriend
I’m in love with my boyfriend…

Yo, I’m sorry if you ever think I’ve been tryna pick a fight with you
You wanna tryna work this out, you wouldn’t say goodbye to what we had, would you?
You see that there’s an elephant in this room, we’ve been in this heavy situation
So baby girl, I’m beggin’ you, it’s time we had a real conversation
Now, here we go!

[Verse 1:]
I must admit, I’m just a kid
Don’t really know how to handle your love
I haven’t been deservin’ it
I never said “thanks for buildin’ me up”
You gave it all, wanted me to man up
I took you for granted, now you stand up
And walk away, what should I say?
I’m sorry for it all, but hey, but hey!
Look what you did, you’ve been a cheat
Cuz what the fuck ya doin’ with my best friend?
I feel like shit. What did I miss?
You told me you only let him hold hands
Why must it be the guy I trust so much?
You can’t imagine just how bad it hurts
Drop the act, with due respect
You listen to me now, I say, I say

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
You kissin’ on another guy and then ya tellin’ me it’s alright
I saw you two ridin’ out tonight and you were holdin’ him so tight
And how the hell do you want me to think that I was wrong to lose my mind
Don’t look at me like “hey, you’re the little poor guy that’s bein’ sympathized”
Oh how kind!

[Chorus:]
Your love is poison and it’s bad for my heart
My brain is so intoxicated, I’ll be fallin’ apart
And though forgivin’ you, forgettin’ you might seem to be hard
I’ll try, I’ma get it right, you’d better get outta my life
Right now-ow-ow, you’re bad for the heart
Bye now-ow-ow, girl you’re bad for my heart
Just cuz I wanted you, I needed you, now I’m heavily scarred
You were right, I ain’t gonna die if you just get outta my life (tonight...)

[Verse 2:]
You havin’ fun? You need a month
You think it’s time we gave each other some space
I’ve got a hunch, you’re gonna run
You do it right away to get me replaced
You fragile little girl, you got your reasons
Ain’t gotta wait, you made up your decision
So you lied, this is goodbye
I should be goin’ by now, but hey, but hey!

[Rap 2:]
My baby, no, it’s not your fault, you kept tellin’ me to change
It was me, blind to see, so it’s like a bang bang bang
You hit me in the head and you shot me in the heart
It ain’t just a wake-up call, cuz I feel my body fallin’ apart
I don’t wanna start a war, I just wanna you back and all
We can make it okay, and we can make it work, hey
But will it? Cuz, you seem so far away
And you chose him over me!

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Him touchin’ you, does it make you feel any better, honey?
I did it for the love, the trust, and on you, girl, been spendin’ all my money
And how am I supposed to think that you would still be mine, cuz ain’t it funny
You took the time we said to have a little space and you moved on, I see
Stupid me!

[Chorus]

[Rap 3:]
I thought the love we had was like a work of art
Now the memories you scatterin’ around the floor
I can’t find ‘em anymore, don’t know what I’m waitin’ for
You to be back, or to paint it all black?
The world is so dark, and it’s just no good for my heart
Girl, you broke it all apart, and you turnin’ off the stars
Cuz your love is poison and it’s bad for my heart

[Outro:]
Your love is poison and it’s bad for my heart, yeah
Your love is poison and it’s bad for my heart, yeah
Your love is poison and it’s bad for my heart, yeah
Your love is poison..

Tell him you’re leavin’
That you’re leavin’ with me
Go tell him you mean it
Cuz your love, it ain’t free
If he just can’t start to appreciate it
I don’t see why you’re hesitatin’
Tell him you’re leavin’
If you just ain’t what he needs

You should be burnin’
All those bad memories
It’s time he be learnin’
How to say I’m sorry
All this time he got you manipulated
Seein’ you like this, fuck I hate it
He should be learnin’
To get down on his knees

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
I’m in love with the one that’s strong
I’m in love, I’ve been waitin’ so long
Hey!

[Chorus:]
When you’re with me, we are gonna have a real life
I can promise I’ma make your bad days feel fine
Hot as fire, I’ma bring us to a new high-i-e-i-e-i, i-i

Tell me “honey, I just wanna make your name mine”
You can trust me, I ain’t tellin’ you a lame lie-i-e-i-e-i-e-i

[Verse 2:]
Tell him you’ve found it
Found the love of your life
Say, “Don’t think about it,
Stoppin’ me from goodbye”
Tell it to his face the truth that you love me
He’ll go crazy, that wouldn’t stop me
The boy’s fuckin’ lousy
At just treatin’ you right (right...)

Tell him you’re feelin’
That you’re feelin’ so bad (so bad, so bad, so bad...)
But I’ve got the healin’
Without me, you’d be so sad (gonna be so sad, baby!)
You just gotta leave him, it’s so frustratin’
Keep me waitin’, I’m devastated
Looks like I’m stealin’
He's got no right to get mad (he's got no right to get mad!)

I’m in love, don’t tell me that it’s wrong
I’m in love, I can feel it so strong
Hey!

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I don’t wanna get my hopes so high
Thinkin’ ‘bout it makes me feel so low
Bein’ with you, God it feels so nice
Why don’t we just nail it down, so slow?
Never thought that this could be so right
But I can’t be doin’ this solo
I’m in love with you, I don’t know why-i-e-i-e-i
Hey!

[Chorus]

(Gonna have a new life...
I'm gonna make you feel fine...
We're on a new high, we're on a new high, ooh!
Come be with me...
Call me honey...
Trust me baby...)

Ooh… Ooh ooh woah…
Ooh ooh yeah… Alright, alright!

[Verse 1:]
We’ve been playin’ on the edge
We can’t find a way to let go
No turnin’ back now
But if there were, I won’t ever back down
Cuz baby boo, you mean everything to me
You have made me wanna be good
I’m fallin’ in love
I ain’t gettin’ enough of you and I don’t wanna stop, no!

[Chorus 1:]
This may have got a little too out of hand
But in time he’ll understand, that
You love me so much more
He won’t break down on the floor
You know soon you gotta try and give it up
What we have, it must be love
You should let him down easy
Then baby, leave him for me
(Baby, leave him for me, yeah...)

[Verse 2:]
You say, you’re feelin’ guilty but
I say, you should just let it be
Now you’re fallin’ for me
It’s almost too obvious to not see
So baby, you should just break it up with him
Save him a little self-esteem
You don’t love him no more
I gotta say you don’t love him at all, no...

[B-Section:]
You’ve been in that relationship with him but let’s see
You know it damn too well, that I’m the man of your dreams

You’ve been in that relationship with him but let’s see
You know it damn too well, that I’m the man of your dreams
Betcha know, betcha know
It’s just a matter of time
Let him go, let him go
Baby, fall in my arms
I don’t say love can’t wait but I’m not sure that it will
It won’t make any difference, I’ll be lovin’ you still
Baby you, baby you
Gotta make up your mind
Come on, do it, come on, do it
I want you to be mine...

(H-heh, I really don't wanna say it but...)
I don’t say love can’t wait but I’m not sure that it will
And I don’t wanna wait, but for you, yeah I sure will

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2:]
He will see that I’m the only one for you
You’re supposed to be my boo
All he did, I do better
We’re meant to be together
Every sign is tellin’ him to give it up
You two are totally outta love
So let him down easy
Then baby, leave him for me

[Outro:]
(I tell ya what)
Baby, leave him for me…
Let him down easy, yeah…
Baby, leave him for me…
You gotta let him down!

Let Him Down Easy

WINTER LOVE
Produced by The Third Productions
Written by Keelan
From “Lovers Without Borders” (2011)
 
[Chorus:]
Imagine you and me in a house where we
Can have a family, all we can hear is laughter
I’ve always known that this is how it’s meant to be
I know that we will live happily ever after
And when it’s hard to breathe, you know you’ve always got me
I’m like a fallen angel, helping you when it’s tough
And when it’s cold, with you is where I feel the warmest
December’s gone, and now I’m missing my winter love

[Rap 1:]
It’s February already but the snow’s still fallin' like rain
I’m missin' you, my boyfriend
I’m missin' you, I’m tellin' you again and again
Again and again, I know you do too
I still remember when we first met
It was one December day
Three weeks before I flew away
You came to my house, and then we made out
Even before our first official date
I never thought we would end up this way
But then it’s turned out, you’re my winter love, babe...

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
We always thought that it was nothin'
Only touching and then goin'
So I went on without knowin' that I fell for you
You’re my winter love
Baby, I know that you’re the one
I don’t care ‘bout the summer loves, just to be havin' fun

I guess we didn’t see it comin'
How it turned out to be somethin'
How my heart, it kept on hopin' for a little more
For a little love, somebody that is there to hold
Some hands to make me warm enough
Every time I’m feelin' cold...

[Chorus]

[Rap 2:]
Everybody's talkin' 'bout their summer love
And how they keep on havin' fun
Ridin' out the streets, makin' love in the summer heat
Lyin' on the beach, drinkin', never bein' sober
But they don’t know when the summer’s over
One day the sun won’t be shinin' anymore
They’re lyin' right there on the floor
And then they ask me how to find a winter love like you
I say, “No can do, I’m just lucky that it came to me
You just gotta wait and see!”

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Now all I know is that I gotcha
I’m so blessed that I am witcha
I don’t care about whatever they may say of us
I’m just like a bus, and you’re the station where I’m from
I will come back, and it’s a must
Without you, doesn’t feel like home

Boy, you’re the only one I’m missin'
Make damn sure I won’t be kissin'
Any other, I’m promisin' you with all my heart
You’re my winter sun, you light it up when it is dark
We’re never running outta fun
We’ll never be worlds apart...

[Chorus]

[Rap 3:]
I’ll be runnin' back to you
I’ll be huggin' you, and I’ll be tellin' you
The stories of how I’ve been livin' in this faraway land
Without you, everything ain’t the same
I wanna say I really miss you!
It’s weird, I almost cry when I think about your smile
When I think about the happy times we had together
And the memories are killin' me
Just tell me if you’re feelin' it too
I’m so in love with you, my baby boo!

[Bridge:]
I know life is hard when we’re miles apart
I know that your heart is feeling lonely
Oh no, I hate this part, where the feeling’s dark
You know that you are my one and only...
Eh yeah, eh yeah…
Go on and cry out if you miss me
Eh yeah, eh yeah…
Just close your eyes and…

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
Imagine you and me, imagine you and me…
My winter love…

NOT THE CHAMPION
Produced by E-Motion-L Productions
Written by Keelan
From “Both Sides Of Heaven” (2016-2017)
 
[Rap:]
Are you a godsent angel fallin’ on her broken wings?
If you’re a fairy, tell me I can wish for anything
I wish for a life with you, I’ma trade if I need to
You can take my heart, break it all apart
But promise this, give me back the stars
So I can light some candles, singin’ all my saddest songs
But then if that’s the case, do promise you’ll come back along
We’ll be havin’ one last dinner, in your heart, I’m still the winner
In your life, you can’t replace me
From my mind, I can’t erase ya!

[Verse 1:]
In this place tonight, I’ll be singin’ my song
On this stage, alright, and they’ll be singin’ along
A standin’ O is all I want
It’s what I know, and nobody can tell me what I don’t
I gave it everything, now I’m standin’ tall
When I spread my wings, the world’s feelin’ so small
I take what’s mine, I guess I’ll fly
But it ain’t right, when there’s no you it means nothin’ at all

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
You helped me up when I was down
You took me in when I was out
You are the calling from above
Sayin’, I owe it all to you, my love
Tell me, how to afford the luxury
Of pullin’ your heart close to me?
I never knew of love like this
But I’ll get used to it!

[Chorus:]
Cuz even in the spotlight, so bright
I’ll let you steal my thunder, oh woah
If you’re not standing here by my side
I’ll sure be goin’ under, oh woah
Yes baby, I love you, I knew
From the bottom of your heart, you’d love me too
No baby, without you telling me I’m your number one
I’m not the champion...

[Spoken:]
We started it on a spontaneous date night
And since then you’ve been my extraordinary Valentine
And I love you... Yo...

[Verse 2:]
I just need a map and the key to your heart
Teach me how to unwrap all your thoughts in the dark
I’ve gone insane, can’t understand
Give me a hand, don’t ever wanna see us fall apart

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Who’s gon’ help me up when I am down
Who’s gon’ take me in when I am out
You are the calling from above
Sayin’, I owe it all to you, my love
You see, to be with you, I made a choice
Ooh, how I long to hear your voice
I never knew of love like this
But I’ll get used to it!

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I never thought I’d fall in love with someone so unexpected
I never knew of love like this
But then with you, I’m lovin’ it!
I hope you see through all the bad the good in me, appreciate it
I can forever go on like this! Yeah…

[Chorus]

Here's To Us (And To Remembering)
