Hey 03:28
I said hey, tell me what did I say? Did you even take the time to open your mind And listen to me? When I move my lips can you hear a sound? Are you even standing on the same ground Is all your hearing blah, blah, blah? I’m up to here, it’s the last straw See I’m trying to understand What’s so hard to comprehend I said hey, tell me what did I say Did you even take the time to open your mind And listen to me? I said hey, you're gonna hear what I say No I won’t back down I’ll keep making a sound Until you listen to me! Is it really hard for you to hear I’m trying to be honest and sincere You know I want to help you out But you can’t see what I’m about See if you don’t let me in Then we never can begin I said hey, tell me what did I say Did you even take the time to open your mind And listen to me? I said hey, you're gonna hear what I say No I won’t back down I’ll keep making a sound Until you listen to me! Can you tell me what I just said? Try to step outside of your head Should I try a little louder Tell me who here’s go t the power Baby you and I go both ways Maybe I need to rephrase See I’ve got some things on my mind If you don't hear I’ll leave you behind I said hey, tell me what did I say Did you even take the time to open your mind And listen to me? I said hey, you're gonna hear what I say No I won’t back down I’ll keep making a sound Until you listen to me! You need to listenx3 You need to listen

Save Me 03:21
Vs1:Another night, to go out on the town I’m lookin good, and feelin proud But then I run, into the likes of you Looks like I’ll need, another drink or two Did I just hear what I think you said? I didn’t need a map to find a spot in your bed. What made you think I was lookin for you Please spare me from, what I think you’ll do. Now I’ve got a question I need to ask Do I look like a damsel in distress? No I’m not your princess or your maiden fair And I don’t need the likes of you to Save me, save me, save me. I’ll put up a fight so don’t cage me Save me, save me, save me, It’s not what you’ll hear from this baby Save me, save me, save me, This ain’t a cry and it ain’t no plea Save me, save me, save me, Please, this ain’t no fairytale love story. Now here’s the truth, I’m gonna walk away I couldn’t care, what you’ve got to say It’s not a crime, to hold my head up high Don’t need to be trying to score some guy Now I’ve got a question I need to ask Do I look like a damsel in distress? No I’m not your princess or your maiden fair And I don’t need the likes of you to Save me, save me, save me. I’ll put up a fight so don’t cage me Save me, save me, save me, It’s not what you’ll hear from this baby Save me, save me, save me, This ain’t a cry and it ain’t no plea Save me, save me, save me, Please, this ain’t no fairytale love story. My momma taught me to do it on my own My momma taught me how to be strong My momma taught me to take a man down My momma taught me how to proud My momma taught me it’s not for a man to Save me, save me, save me. I’ll put up a fight so don’t cage me Save me, save me, save me, It’s not what you’ll hear from this baby Save me, save me, save me, This ain’t a cry and it ain’t no plea Save me, save me, save me, Please, this ain’t no fairytale love story. Save me, save me, save me

Too Bad 03:42
I replay it in my head You said it should have been me in your arms instead But you missed your chance when you got on that boat Left me there to stay afloat I took sometime to sit and reflect What else can you do when you’re a total wreck Took me a while but I came out strong I no longer needed the strength of your arm My heart was so heavy I thought I’d never lift it again, now it’s It’s too late we’ve been there we’ve done that It’s too late for you to make a comeback Found a way to let you go Now you’re oh so sad and all alone It’s too bad Present day you saw my man with me And oh how it spiked your jealousy Now you see the error in your ways Truly missed me all those days So don’t be shocked cause you said move on I heard so I blocked all your boyish charm Now I found a man who treats me right When you wouldn’t put up a fight I must have tried a thousand times to win you back, now it’s It’s too late we’ve been there we’ve done that It’s too late for you to make a comeback Found a way to let you go Now you’re oh so sad and all alone It’s too bad I know I might come off a little mean Remember that you left for your selfish needs Chin up boy you’ll figure it out Without me I had no doubt You know it’s for the best that we went our own ways, now it’s It’s too late we’ve been there we’ve done that It’s too late for you to make a comeback Found a way to let you go Now you’re oh so sad and all alone It’s too late we’ve been there we’ve done that It’s too late for you to make a comeback Found a way to let you go Now you’re oh so sad and all alone It’s really too bad It's oh so sad I feel bad for you.

Cooking 04:07
Oh baby what’s the hurry You don’t even need to worry I’m right here why don’t you settle down Instead of giving me the run around I never said that I was done yet all you seem to hear was run Have a seat and listen all the way through I’ll give you something for you to chew I just want to take it slow Give us a chance see where we’ll go So listen close since we’re at our prime Love is like cooking gotta give it time You gotta let it sizzle, let that burner run You gotta let those flavors fuse so it melts right on your tongue Once it’s just right, you need to let it sit a while Give it time to cool, so you don’t get burned Just give it time This process is delicate I’m telling you for your benefit See I like you but with the road we’re on Too much too fast and I’m sure to be gone Soak it in there is no rush I like that you still make me blush If we run then we miss the best parts And there’s no going back to start It’ll feel real good real soon A nice slow simmer in the afternoon Listen close since we're at our prime Love is like Cooking gotta give it time You gotta let it sizzle, let that burner run You gotta let those flavors fuse so it melts right on your tongue Once it’s just right, you need to let it sit a while Give it time to cool, so you don’t get burned Just give it time Ooh yeah, I like it like that Things are coming nicely when we’re not stuck on a track Ohh yeah, we’re here right now It’s enough for me baby we don’t need a vow Ooh yeah, I like it like that Things are coming nicely when we’re not stuck on a track Ohh yeah, we’re here right now It’s enough for me baby we don’t need a vow You gotta let it sizzle, let that burner run You gotta let those flavors fuse so it melts right on your tongue Once it’s just right, you need to let it sit a while Give it time to cool, so you don’t get burned Just give it time

I Listed 03:54
Another morning and I find out that you’re gone This ain’t the first time where I know you’ve done me wrong No note, no phone call, and no need to say goodbye And all I’m left with is another sigh So I listed all the things you never said When we kissed I knew I was in over my head It’s so twisted all the games you play with me So I listed to see what our fate will be We always end up doing what you want to do And that was only when the timing worked for you Then again you always treat me like a queen But that’s only when you want to be heard or seen I listed all the things you never said When we kissed I knew I was in over my head It’s so twisted all the games you play with me So I listed to see what our fate will be Number one, how are you today Number two, why don’t we go away Number three, girl you look so nice This list is getting longer I shouldn’t think twice I’m really not a fan of waiting by the phone I’m really not a fan of diving into the unkown It’s time to take a look and face the cold hard facts For now I have a list full of all your awful acts Cause I listed all the things you never said When we kissed I knew I was in over my head It’s so twisted all the games you play with me So I listed and you won’t be calling me baby.

Last Word 03:29
You shut it down, before you heard my story You turned around and didn’t wanna talk anymore You cut me out unphased and unfeeling Had to have the higher ground I’m taking myself in a new direction Don’t need the clutter in my mind I only had love and affection That’s not what you want The last word, so you want the last word You can have the last word. Cause I stopped listening long ago, to you and your whole pity show Save your breath, we both know that it won’t help You lack the depth, to comprehend the other side Lay it to rest, and cool it for a while Let’s just call it quits I’m taking myself in a new direction Don’t need the clutter in my mind I only had love and affection That’s not what you want The last word, so you want the last word You can have the last word. Cause I stopped listening long ago, to you and your whole pity show Can’t you see that I’m not ready To let you back in You say you hope we reunite, but I’m not the one who started this fight The last word, so you want the last word You can have the last word. Cause I stopped listening long ago, The last word, so you want the last word You can have the last word. Cause I stopped listening long ago, The last word, so you want the last word You can have the last word. Cause I stopped listening long ago, I’ve got the volume way down low Goodbye, farewell since I’ve outgrown you and your whole pity show

An Apple a day, keeps the doctor away Prescribe me something to use to keep you at bay A shiver down my spine, tells me your not far behind I start to shake as you enter my mind The body knows the body knows The body knows the body knows My body knows my body knows when you’re near me The body knows the body knows The body knows the body knows My body knows my body knows when you’re near me I know it isn’t right, try to fend off with all my might But can’t resist when we enter the night He enters through my soul, filling me up making me whole My mind turns off as my body takes control The body knows the body knows The body knows the body knows My body knows my body knows when you’re near me The body knows the body knows The body knows the body knows My body knows my body knows when you’re near me My body, your body, they feel it so heavy There’s no denying My body, your body, they feel it so heavy There’s no denying The body knows the body knows The body knows the body knows My body knows my body knows when you’re near me The body knows the body knows The body knows the body knows My body knows my body knows when you’re near me

You 03:48
You don’t see what I see You keep coming to me You take the good with the bad You'll stay forever my man Can we just skip the sorrys Forget that it every happened You know that it’s fine I’ll be alright You know it wont happen again I will turn around I won't let you down I will hold on cause I’m I’m staying right here Right beside you dear Say you’ll keep me near I will hold on Cause I’m staying right here Mmms You don’t turn away You keep choosing to stay You take me close in your arms You’ll stay and weather the storm Can we just skip the sorrys (ahh) Forget that it every happened (ahh) You know that it’s fine I’ll be alright You know it wont happen again I will turn around I won't let you down I will hold on cause I’m I’m staying right here Right beside you dear Say you’ll keep me near I will hold on Cause I’m staying right here mms How I did I ever get here (ahhs) Where’d I get lost on the way My feet off the gorund didn’t want to be found Until you You, you, you, you You don’t see what I see You keep coming to me You take the good with the bad Youll stay forever my man

Don’t let go, let’s stay a little longer It’s feeling though, as if I belong here The day ahead seems so far away Do you mind if I just stay This soft morning haze, isn’t the only thing that’s kept me in a daze It’s that feeling I get, Cause you’re making me sweat And I cant seem to find the words Boy you did this to me, No need to set me free I’m yours for everyday It’s magic what you’ve done, Cause you’ve gotten me to say Isn’t it good to be in love Was this your plan, did you mean to Make me yours, and make your life sweeter Was it fate, or did you just wonder Doesn’t matter, we aint goin under Your hand in mine, isn’t the only thing that I’ve got on my mind It’s that feeling I get, Cause you’re making me sweat And I cant seem to find the words Boy you did this to me, No need to set me free I’m yours for everyday It’s magic what you’ve done, Cause you’ve gotten me to say Isn’t it good to be in love I know that we’ll grow old, Time will take it’s toll No we might not be the same But we’ll always hold the flame Isn’t it good x6 Love It’s that feeling I get, Cause you’re making me sweat And I cant seem to find the words Boy you did this to me, No need to set me free I’m yours for everyday It’s magic what you’ve done, Cause you’ve gotten me to say Isn’t it good to be in love ooweee
