​

from the first time I saw you 

i couldn’t get you off of my mind

now I’m a stranger to it but good love can be so hard to find

with all these twists and turns and games that get played 

well It’s hard to tell when somethings real these days

 

and I’m not quite sure just why

but I’ve known right from the start

and there ain’t no denying

you can see right through me 

totally undo me 

babe got the key to my heart

 

with you right by my side

its got me feeling mighty fine

cuz You’re the kind of woman

that makes me want to take my time

this situation’s gotten turned around

and little girl I’m so lucky its you I’ve found

 

and I’m not quite sure just why

but I’ve known right from the start

and there ain’t no denying

you can see right through me 

totally undo me 

babe got the key to my heart

 

i’m not lonely don’t fell empty inside

cuz girl you showed me 

something I just can’t pass by

i Just can’t pass by 

​

and I’m not quite sure just why

but I’ve known right from the start

and there ain’t no denying

you can see right through me 

totally undo me 

babe you got the key to my heart

​

well i'm tired of picking up the pieces 

and always watching your back 

well its time that you learned 

some of lifes lessons

and started giving something back 

​

cuz its always 

your bad break 

a false start

troubled Mind

a broken heart

a big mistake 

just a lark 

but when you fall 

you fall real hard

​

if you always feel like your being mistreated

it gets hard to let your guard down 

if you always feel like your being defeated 

it gets hard to be around 

​

cuz its always 

your bad break 

a false start

troubled Mind

a broken heart

a big mistake 

just a lark 

but when you fall 

you fall real hard

​

you fall real hard 

ya you fall real hard 

fall real hard ya you fall real hard

​

​

​

something doesn't feel right 

you don't act the same 

something doesn't feel right

you don't live up to your name

something bout a changed mind

and a wavering heart

the same thing most every-time

you played a devious part

​

it's just water under the bridge

there's only so much i'll take

before i won't give

how much of your life 

do you want to live like this 

it's just water under the bridge 

​

sick of messing around 

won't let this do me in 

just want to lay it down 

but i don't know where to begin

no other way to say it now

your doing more than harm 

after all this time we've gone

it's just tricks and charms 

​

it's just water under the bridge

there's only so much i'll take

before i won't give

how much of your life 

do you want to live like this 

it's just water under the bridge 

​

​

 

well your my true love and i've always known

just how fast this love could grow

started out small then it blossomed up quick 

sweeps you off your feet makes you forget 

​

your truest colors you've always shown

even when a hard wind blows 

started out small then it came up quick 

you give me times is this life 

that I can't forget

​

that you know 

how it goes 

 

and theres just something

that you should know

i'll go any place that you would go

nothing i'd expect you to show

you and i already know 

​

how this goes 

don't have to show

 

that your my true love and i've always known 

​

​

i know that you don't mind

seems by your design 

your holding back all my desires 

something that you must see

when you keep avoiding me

you just keep putting out my fire

​

and if its true 

your not really what you seem

and if i knew you only in my dreams

would it make it right 

would it change my night

and if i knew that this 

was only going to be 

just a sad unhopeful memory

put an end to strife 

would it change my life

​

i know that you been kind

seems by your design 

your after something i cant see

it happens every-time 

you think someones so divine

but theres more hidden 

than what you see 

​

and if its true 

your not really what you seem

and if i knew you only in my dreams

would it make it right 

would it change my night

and if i knew that this 

was only going to be 

just a sad unhopeful memory

put an end to strife 

would it change my life

​

maybe some time goes by 

she'll call you up tonight

it just might be your destiny

something is just not right

when she's looking to fight

asking why i didn't try

​

​

if I'd known from the start just what I’d lose

wish I could say i'd make another move

i'm the sad one feeling I've been played

sorry about the choices that have been made

thief of hearts

tore me apart

thief of hearts

im in the dark

​

you know I’m a liar

but its all cool

gotta work hard to keep from acting a fool

friends say i laid in the bed I've made

good lord what kind of price I paid

 

thief of hearts

tore me apart

thief of hearts

now I’m in the dark

stole from me what wasn’t yours

left me nothing

and you closed the door

thief of hearts

i’m in the dark

 

dreams of you just won't die

crazy but i always want another try

took me places never though i'd go

highest highs and drop down lows 

​

your lips say bye but your eyes say more

thought your were the one i was searching for

your lips say bye but I want more

thought you wouldn’t turn and walk to the door

but girl you were, girl you were

​

will i know what were all about

Since you’ve gone I’m left only with doubt 

my way of thinking was far from wise

Left me empty arms and crying eyes

 

thief of hearts

tore me apart

thief of hearts

i’m in the dark

 

stole from me what wasn’t yours

left me nothing 

and you closed the door

thief of hearts I’m in the dark

 

stole from me what wasn’t yours

left with nothing and you closed the door

thief of hearts

i’m in the dark

i’m in the dark

​

​

it’s the same old story for me

find someone to love but you gotta leave

and it’s a crying shame when you finally see

just how sweet it can be

​

every day gets harder for me

always staying up past quarter to 3

thinking if just once I let you see

i wanted everything from you that you wanted from me

 

but if I woulda seen my chance and thrown caution aside

seen her glance and not stepped to the side

seen my chance and not let it pass me by

but now excuses are useless 

and I might not get another try

 

wish upon the stars for another day

hoping there’s a chance you’ll come my way

never shoulda let a chance at love slip on by

oh now every night i lie alone wondering why

​

i want you so bad baby yes indeed

you can believe what you want to believe

i'm hiding no tried tricks up my sleeve 

it's only your love, your love that I need

 

if I woulda seen my chance and thrown caution aside

seen her glance and not stepped to the side

seen my chance and not let it pass me by

but now excuses are useless ya now excuses are useless

oh now excuses are useless 

and I might not get another try

oh lord

 

i’m sorry this is our last goodbye

there’s something I’ve been meaning to say

and I almost didn’t try

as you looked down and wiped your eyes

your mood was cold and grey like the clouds up in the sky 

 

sorry I didn’t see this surprise

if only for a second you slowed down once

to see whats passed you by

as you looked down and wiped your eye

nothing that we had to say cuz we both had realized

​

that it’s all right now

cuz we’re just holding it together

all right now

that we endured this endeavor

all and all I think we spent good time

isn’t ever what we designed

but its All right now 

all right somehow

 

sorry that this is closing time

there’s something that I’ve been meaning to say

and i almost didn’t try 

as you look down and wiped your eye 

nothing that we had to say cuz we both had realized

that it’s all right now

were holding it together

all right now that we endured this endeavor

but all and all i think we spent good time

but id give anything to fall back in line

but It’s all right

ya It’s all right

well its all right somehow

​

​

theres some places i never thought I’d see

there’s a kind of man Id never thought to be

thought I had a good life happy with what I had

but You showed up and made my good thing bad

​

and all it took was one little look from you

one tiny little nod

is all took for me

to follow you down

to the cheating side of town

 

will i ever come to regret the day

i gave into this wicked way

is really who I am I know it ain’t right

i just can’t seem to put up the fight

 

when all it took was one little look from you

one tiny little nod

was all it took for me

to follow you down

to the cheating side of town

 

what’s got a hold of me is this crazy game

nothings ever going to be the same

feels like maybe I’ve gone and lost my mind

thinking bout all i might find 

and all it took was, babe,  one little look from you

one tiny little nod

was all it took for me

to follow you down

to the cheating side of town

 

cheating side of town

cheating side of town

cheating side

 

follow you down to the cheating side of town

 

​

​

 

well i'm leaving on

on the nearest plane

my baby gone she left in the rain 

i'm working on, on the pain 

and still the loveless time remains

​

been so long i haven't felt the same 

i've been run through an endless maze of games

living long and love is lame 

striking out and you always feel the shame 

​

well i'm leaving on

on the nearest plane

my baby gone she left in the rain 

i'm working on, on the pain 

and still the loveless time remains

​

trying to fill such an empty space

being alone and so out of place 

its hard to show, show my face

when i'm feeling low 

and i've gone and lost the taste

​

i'll catch that midnight plane 

and walk right on through that rain 

and i will keep searching on 

til i find the place where i belong 

i belong 

​

well it feels like 

i'm running out of time 

always looking for whats so hard to find

something real can i make it mine

feels like its such a long lonely climb 

​

​

 

 

oh shame on me 

for ever loving you 

i was a careless fool but now i'm through 

and when your world comes crumbling down 

don't come running back 

i'm not the one 

to give you clothes off my back

there used to be a time 

when that was me 

oh but i'm not the fool 

you once thought you'd see

losing time 

from my life

​

i guess the blames on me 

and yes it's partly true 

it's hard to understand t

he things a fool could go through

but you tell yourself 

it could turn out okay

if the endless of tomorrows 

could turn into yesterday

and i'm missing time again

in my life

​

oh shame on me 

for ever loving you 

i was a careless fool but now i'm through 

when your world comes crumbling down 

don't come running back 

i'm not that one 

to give you clothes off of my back

there used to be a time 

when that was me 

oh i'm not the fool 

you once thought you'd see

losing time 

losing time again

from my life
