I been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
And drank 'til I was thirsty again
We went searchin', through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen
Well, okay, I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Well, who hasn't been there before?
I come 'round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you French toast again
Well, okay, I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
And everywhere in between
Well, okay, we get along
So what if right now, everything's wrong?
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

if it makes you happy

breathe (2AM)

've heard so many words
But I had no courage
Now we're saying goodbye
Don't want to miss you, tonight, oh
Tell me it's not over now
I can change your mind somehow
I, I give it all
I trip and fall for you
And I, hope you wouldn't mind
Just one more try for something new
I need you, I need you
Don't be shocked if I cry
You've changed me inside
I turned my back on you
You were the only reason I pulled through, I pulled through
Tell me it's not over now
I can change your mind somehow
My head feels so heavy
My heart is so empty
I, I give it all
I trip and fall
I trip and fall
I trip and fall
I, I give it all
I trip and fall for you
And I hope you wouldn't mind
Just one more try for something new
I need you, I need you

give it all

I'm lyin' here on the floor where you left me
I think I took too much
I'm crying here, what have you done?
I thought it would be fun
I can't stay on your life support
There's a shortage in the switch
I can't stay on your morphine
'Cause it's making me itch
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she's bein' a little bitch
I think I'll get outta here
Where I can run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear you're just like a pill
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill
You keep makin' me ill
I haven't moved from the spot where you left me
This must be a bad trip
All of the other pills, they were different
Maybe I should get some help
I can't stay on your life support
There's a shortage in the switch
I can't stay on your morphine
'Cause it's making me itch
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she's bein' a little bitch
I think I'll get outta here
Where I can run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear you're just like a pill
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill
You keep makin' me ill
Run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear you're just like a pill
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill
You keep makin' me ill
I can't stay on your life support
There's a shortage in the switch (just like a pill)
I can't stay on your morphine
'Cause it's making me itch (just like a pill)
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she's bein' a little bitch (just like a pill)
I think I'll get outta here
Where I can run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears (frustrated, frustrated fears)
And I swear you're just like a pill
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill
You keep makin' me-
Run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear you're just like a pill
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill (you're makin' me, makin' me ill)
You keep makin' me-
Run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears (yeah)
And I swear you're just like a pill (yeah)
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill
You keep makin' me ill (oh, you're makin' me run)
Run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears

just like a pill

So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own?
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
And maybe I'll work out
A way to make it back some day
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave shall fall
It would fall upon us all
Well, I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love
I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high, or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
I'll go wherever you will go

wherever you will go

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else
I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times
But somehow I want more
I don't mind spendin' everyday
Out on your corner in the pourin' rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay a while
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
Tap on my window, knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
Doesn't matter anymore
It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full, and my door's always open
You come anytime you want, yeah
I don't mind spendin' everyday
Out on your corner in the pourin' rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
I know where you hide alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and makes me catch her every time she falls
Yeah
Tap on my window, knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I don't mind spendin' everyday
Out on your corner in the pourin' rain, oh
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
I don't mind spendin' everyday
Out on your corner in the pourin' rain
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

she will be loved

What if I said yes
What if I'd gone out that night
What if you'd turned left
Everything would've turned out alright
What if I'd spoke up
What'd if I'd took the keys
What if I had tried a little harder instead of always trying to please
Joey I'm so sorry
Oh oh can you hear me
Joey I'm so sorry
What if I'd said no
What if we'd never fell in love
What if we'd gone slow
Or a little bit faster and broken up
Would I know this hurt
Would I feel this pain
Do you know that with all I have left in my very last breath I will call your name
Joey I'm so sorry
Oh oh can you hear me
Joey I'm so sorry
Were you sad
Were you scared
Did you whisper a prayer to be free
Was it quiet and cold
Was it light or too dark to see
And did you reach for me
Joey I'm so sorry
Oh oh can you hear me
Joey I'm so sorry
Oh oh can you hear me
Joey I'm so
Joey I'm so, sorry

joey

She was in the backyard, say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up a white pickup truck
Her folks should've seen it coming, it was only just a matter of time
Plenty old enough and you can't stop love
She stuck a note on the screen door, "Sorry, but I got to go"
And that was all she wrote, her mama's heart was broke
And that was all she wrote, so the story goes
Now her daddy's in the kitchen, staring out the window
Scratching and a racking his brains
How could 18 years just up and walk away?
Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line
Now don't you wonder what the preacher's gonna preach about Sunday morn'?
Nothing quite like this has happened here before
Well, he must have been a looker, smooth talking son of a gun
For such a grounded girl to just up and run
'Cause you can't fence time, and you can't stop love
Now all the biddy's in the beauty shop gossip going non-stop
Sipping on pink lemonade
How could 18 years just up and walk away?
Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line
Yoo-hoo!
She's got her pretty little bare feet hanging out the window
And they're heading up to Vegas tonight
How could 18 years just up and walk away?
Our little pony-tailed girl grown up to be a woman
Now she's gone in the blink of an eye
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line
She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging out on the line
She was in the backyard, say it was a little past nine
When her prince pulled up a white pickup truck
Plenty old enough and you can't stop love
And no, you can't fence time, and you can't stop love

suds in the bucket

Sun bleached flies sitting in the windowsill
Waiting for the day they escape
They talk all about that money and how their babies are always changing
While they're breathing in the poison of the paint
What I wouldn't give to be in Church this Sunday
Listening to the choir, so heartfelt, all singing
God loves you, but not enough to save you
So, baby girl, good luck taking care of yourself
So I said fine, 'cause that's how my daddy raised me
If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard
But in the end, if I bend under the weight that they gave me
Then this heart would break and fall as twice as far
We all know how it goes
The more it hurts, the less it shows
But I still feel like they all know, and that's why I can never go back home
And I spend my life watching it go by from the sidelines
And God, I've tried, but I think it's about time I put up a fight
But I don't mind 'cause that's how my daddy raised me (how my daddy raised me)
If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard
But I always knew that in the end no one was coming to save me
So I just prayed and I keep praying and praying and praying
If it's meant to be then it will be
So I met him there and told him I believe
Singing if it's meant to be then it'll be
I forgive it all as it comes back to me (back to me)
If it's meant to be then it will be
So I met him there and told him I believe (I believe, yeah)
Singing if it's meant to be then it will be (oh, oh)
I forgive it all as it comes back to me (it comes back to me)
If it's meant to be then it'll be (it'll be, it'll be, it'll be)
So I met him there and told him I believe (yeah)
Singing if it's meant to be then it will be
I forgive it all as it comes back to me (oh)
I'm still praying for that house in Nebraska
By the highway, out on the edge of town
Dancing with the windows open
I can't let go when something's broken
It's all I know and it's all I want now

say, if everything was thrown away,
would living with a smile be easier? 
because my chest is hurting again, don’t say anything more.

say, if everything was forgotten,
would living without crying be easier? 
but i can’t do things like that, 
so don’t show me anything more.

no matter how close i get to you,
my heart is just one

its awful; its so awful
I’d rather you destroy my body, 
tear it to shreds, do as you please
even as i scream, squirm and cause my eyelids to swell
you still hold me tight, you won’t let me go 
so its okay

say, if my wish is granted
i’d want the same thing as you
but because that doesn’t exist for me,
well, at least come over here. 

no matter how much i’m loved by you, 
my heart is just one. 

stop, stop. don’t be so kind. 
whatever i do, i can’t understand. 
it hurts, it hurts. teach me with words
i don’t know this 
don’t leave me alone

its awful; its so awful
I’d rather you destroy my body, 
tear it to shreds, do as you please
even as i scream, squirm and cause my eyelids to swell
you still hold me tight, you won’t let me go 
so its okay 

say if i had a heart, 
how would i find it? 
“well about that… its right here”
