First topic message reminder :

Growing Up :
Photograph,
Remembering the summer
it takes me back,
to Southern California.

where the girls would all pass
on the boardwalk and laugh
at our desperate attempts
and our sunburned backs
we never had a chance,
I remember that
and no matter what we do,
we'll never lose what we had

growing up
Won't bring us down.
Yeah, growing up,
it won't bring us down,
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down

Graduate,
What's a kid to do now?
Get away, (yeah-ah)
We've got so much to prove.

Cause it's time to move on
and I start to let go
but then "Wonderwall" comes on the radio.
I flash back to the night
in your parent's yard,
where we drank too much
and we talked about God

Growing up,
won't bring us down.
Growing up,
it won't bring us down.

We're in this together,
Yeah, we'll make it somehow,
Nothing's gonna stop us now...
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down
Oh-oh-oh

Photograph,
Oh give me something to remember

Growing up,
won't bring us down.
Growing up,
it won't bring us down.

We're in this together,
Yeah, we'll make it somehow,
Nothing's gonna stop us now...
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down
(won't bring us down)
Growing up won't bring us down
(won't bring us down)
Growing up won't bring us......down.

Time To Go :
It's time to go, so put all your clothes on
I've got the keys, baby you're so gone
It's time to go, so put on all your clothes
We're running late, and we both know
'Cause you've got your plans, and you know that I have mine
I fade away, got so little time

So tonight, tonight, let's fade away, let's fade away
Get it all to just one day
Tonight, tonight, oh baby we'll fade away
This is our time, oh yeah
So baby it's time to

Get on the dance floor, pretend you know how
To make 'em all scream, do what they're talking about
Just feel the music, fuck what they're saying
This is the moment, that we've been waiting on

'Cause you've got your plans, and you know that I have mine
I fade away, got so little time
So tonight, tonight, let's fade away, let's fade away
Get it all for just one day
Tonight, tonight, oh baby we'll fade away
This is our time, oh yeah
So baby it's time to go

They said it's time to go
Half dressed, she's walking out the door
And I just thought that I would try to let you know
We'll be a mess around 3 or 4
We all know that I'm fine to go

So tonight, tonight, let's fade away, let's fade away
Get it all for just one day
Tonight, tonight, oh baby we'll fade away
This is our time, oh yeah
So baby it's time to go

So tonight, tonight, let's fade away, let's fade away
Get it all for just one day
Tonight, tonight, oh baby we'll fade away
This is our time, oh yeah
So baby it's time to go

Oh it's time to go

Into Your Arms :
There was a new girl in town.
She had it all figured out. (Had it all figured out)
And I'll state something rash.
She had the most amazing....smile.
I bet you didn't expect that.
But she made me change my ways. (She made me change my ways)
With eyes like sunsets baby.
And legs that went on for days.

I'm fallin' in love
But it's fallin' apart.
I need to find my way back to the start.
When we were in love.
Oh things were better than they are.
Let me back into.
Into your arms.
Into your arms.

She made her way to the bar.
I tried to talk to her.
But she seemed so far. (She seems so far)
Outta my league.
I had to find a way to get her next to me.

I'm fallin' in love
But it's fallin' apart.
I need to find my way back to the start.
When we were in love.
Oh things were better than they are.
Let me back into.
Into your arms.
Into your arms.

Oh she's slippin' away.
I always freeze when I'm thinking of words to say.
All the things she does.
Make it seem like love.
If it's just a game. (Just a game)
Then I like the way that we play.

I'm fallin' in love
But it's fallin' apart.
I need to find my way back to the start.
I'm fallin' in love
But it's fallin' apart.
I need to find my way back to the start.
When we were in love.
Oh things were better than they are.
Let me back into.
Into your arms.
Into your arms.
Into your arms.
Into your arms.

I Must Be Dreaming :
She thinks I'm crazy.
Judging by the faces that she's making.
And I think she's pretty.
But pretty's just part of the things she does that amaze me.
And she calls me sweetheart.
I love it when she wakes me when it's still dark.
And she watches the sun.
But she's the only one I have my eyes on.

Tell me that you love me.
And it'll be alright.
Are you thinking of me?
Just come with me tonight.
You know I need you.
Just like you need me.
Can't stop, Won't stop.
I must be dreaming.
Can't stop, Won't stop.
I must be dreaming.

She moves in closer.
Whispering to me "I thought I told ya"
And oh she's playing games now.
And I figured it out now that we're
Now that we're closer.
Two kids, one love.
Who cares it we making it up.
Her voice is sweet sound.
Our clothes lay on the ground.
She moves in closer.
Whispers "I though I told ya"

Tell me that you love me.
And it'll be alright.
Are you thinking of me?
Just come with me tonight.
You know I need you.
Just like you need me.
Can't stop, Won't stop.
I must be dreaming.
Can't stop, Won't stop.
I must be dreaming.

Remember the day when we started this.
And she made the shape of my heart with her hands.
We try to make some sense of it.
But she called me on the phone and said..

Tell me that you love me.
And it'll be alright.
Are you thinking of me?
Just come with me tonight.
You know I need you.
Just like you need me.
Can't stop, Won't stop.
I must be dreaming.
Go one and tell em that you love me
And it'll be alright. (I must be dreaming)
Are you thinking of me.
Just come with me tonight.(I must be dreaming)
She moves in closer.
Can't stop, Won't stop.
I must be dreaming.

Girls Do What They Want :
She's 18 and a beauty queen (beauty queen)

We All Roll Along :
I remember every night we spent on weekends.
With good friends.
We did nothin' but it seems like we did so much.
Back then.
Oh back then we would kick it laughin' all relaxing'
And taking things for granted.
We did anything for just that little rush.

Just don't forget this.
We won't regret this.
We've got one chance to get it right.

We're alive and we drive to the center of it.
Where we know we're all fine and this just can't be it
And in the end we all know we only breathe for so long.
So tonight's the night we all roll along.

Oh back to our first cigarette.
You know we can't forget all the faces that we've met.
Eighty One (Eighty One)
Twenty Three (Twenty Three)
Means everything to me.
Take me back to the parking lots.
The sleep we fought.
And all the places we got caught.
This place will always be part of me.
Yeah you're all a part of me.

Just don't forget this.
We won't regret this.
We've got one chance to get it right.

We're alive and we drive to the center of it.
Where we know we're all fine and this just can't be it
And in the end we all know we only breathe for so long.
So tonight's the night we all roll along.

I remember every day that I spent dreaming.
Of leaving.
This place behind I would run away from thinkin'
Adding up all the days spent wasted.
Chasing the girls we hated.
Some things, they, they never change.
Take me back o the sleepless nights.
The stupid fights.
It never mattered who was wrong or who was right.
You're all a part of me.

We're alive and we drive to the center of it.
Where we know we're all fine and this just can't be it
And in the end we all know we only breathe for so long.
So tonight's the night we all roll along.

Everything I Ask For :
She takes her time with the little things
Love notes reminding me
She wears red when she's feeling hot
I have her but that's all I've got
She looks best without her clothes
I know it's wrong but that's THE WAY IT GOES

I don't know what she sees in me
But I'm happy that she's happy now
That she's with me
And I'm freakin' out
Because I'm just so lucky

Oh she makes me feel like shit
It's always something
But I can't get over it
She thinks it's nothing
Because she's
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And just a little bit more
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And so much more

She loves music but she hates my band
Loves Prince she's his biggest fan
She's not big on holding hands
But that's alright cause I've still got her
She keeps up on current affairs
PRADA IS WHAT SHE WEARS

I don't know what she sees in me
But I'm happy that she's happy now
That she's with me
And I'm freakin' out
Because I'm just so lucky

Oh she makes me feel like shit
It's always something
But I can't get over it
She thinks it's nothing
Because she's
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And just a little bit more
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And so much more

Fist fights turn into sex
I wonder what comes next
She loves to always keep me guessing

And she (SHE!)
won't (WON'T)
give it up.
And we (WE!)
Both (BOTH)
know it's because...

Oh she makes me feel like shit
It's always something
But I can't get over it
She thinks it's nothing
Because she's
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And just a little bit more
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And just a little bit more
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And so much more
Everything I ask for
Everything I ask for
And so much more

Pour Some Sugar On Me :
(Bonus Track - Def Leppard Cover from "Can't Stop, Won't Stop" Deluxe Edition)

Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah

Hey!
C'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet yeah

Listen! red light, yellow light, green-a-light go!
Crazy little woman in a one man show
Mirror queen, mannequin, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up

You gotta squeeze a little, squeeze a little
Tease a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah

Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet yeah

[guitar solo]

You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
'Cos I'm hot, say what, sticky sweet
From my head, my head, to my feet

Do you take sugar? one lump or two?

Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
Get it, come get it
Pour your sugar on me
Ooh
Pour some sugar on me
Yeah! Sugar me!

Lyrics to Life Like This :
Wake up, it's 5am
You fell in love again
Something wrong with living life like this

At work can't help but stare
Long legs and her dark brown hair
You give her a smile and that's about it

The store at 6pm
You see her face again
You catch her eye
You panic and walk towards her

Can't think of what to say
No words come up today
So you just smile
And it's goodbye

You say so what
(You say so what)
I fell in love but it just won't work because
(Just won't work because)

I fell in love again
Don't know how weird I've been
She said to wake again
The same as last weekend
Oh it's a routine thing
Just with some new feelings
I always choke up when
I get close to closing in

So I stare straight into the mirror
Hope I find something there
If not a no
I'll get shot straight back down

I dress up real nice
Make sure my hair is right
Write down a few lines
To tell her that I love her

You say so what
(You say so what)
I fell in love but it just won't work because
(Just won't work because)

I fell in love again
Don't know how weird I've been
She said to wake again
The same as last weekend
Oh it's a routine thing
Just with some new feelings
I always choke up when
I get close to closing in

And I'll make her mine
The one I sing about all the time
Cuz she's in my dreams
But it's never as real as
As real as it seems
And I'm gonna need
A lot more than her
And maybe you'll be my baby
Or maybe not
Because I'm all choked up

I fell in love again
Don't know how weird I've been
She said to wake again
The same as last weekend
It's a routine thing
Just with some new feelings
I always choke up when
I get close to closing in
I get close to closing in

Ho Ho Hopefully :
December first
i'm in a foreign state
i'm running late
i'm all alone
wishin i was somewhere with you baby
she's got a way of making things okay
when shes not around i'm going crazy

this holiday will make us believe that we're exactly where we're supposed to be
and we're ho ho hoping that

we go together like the winter and a sweater and she makes me feel alive inside
and when i look into her eyes i see the blue and green like christmas lights oh what a sight

she's not alone, she's not alone and never will be

ho ho hopefully

this holiday will make us believe that we're exactly where we're supposed to be
and we're ho ho hoping that

Get Ready :
It's Christmas Eve
And I'm alone
We haven't talked in weeks
I think I'm coming home
I'll pack my bags
I pray it snows
That's right tonight, I think I'm coming home

So get ready
Cause I think, yeah I think
I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home to all I've ever known
I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home to all I've ever known

I can see it now
The table set
The smells and sounds
Oh, who could forget
Just you and me
And some mistletoe
Wrapped in a blanket
I think I'm coming home

So get ready
Cause I think, yeah I think
I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home to all I've ever known
I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home to all I've ever known

You and me, my favorite phrase
As the tree lights up your face
You and me, my favorite phrase
My favorite phrase

I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home for Christmas

I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home to all I've ever known
I'll be coming home for Christmas
I'll be coming home to all I've ever known

Undressing The Words :
Oh this suggestion may be a bit suggestive,
But I've had it on my mind all night.
and you're intensive but you're dying for attention,
Girl, it takes you just to feel alright.

It isn't real if it's just one night.
I'm trying real hard,
Oh just be real with me.

The love on my lips,
Sweetheart, I'm sorry but you're not the first,
With lust in my eyes.
I'll be undressing you with every word.

I think I'm coming on to something quick,
My words are flying right over your head.
There's a lot more to it than this,
I'm not just trying to get in your bed.

It isn't real if it's just one night.
I'm trying real hard,
Oh just be real with me.

The love on my lips,
Sweetheart, I'm sorry but you're not the first,
With lust in my eyes.
I'll be undressing you with every word.

So tell me now,
You've gotta let me know.
So come on & come on,
You've gotta let me know.
I'm about to explode.

The love on my lips,
Sweetheart, I'm sorry but you're not the first,
With lust in my eyes.
I'll be undressing you with every word

The Town's Been Talkin' :
The Town's Been Talkin'
Baby my ears are open,
And I'm watching you,
That language your body's speaking,
It makes me sick.
And you're not so smooth,
Cause you do it for the thrill.
And I'm watching you.
You know I'm watching you.

Cause you're in love with love,
You're not in love with him.
And I can tell by the way you play it off,
Like you don't know what you're doing to him.

We've heard all about you,
We know you're every move,
Cause you're paper thin,
And it's visible.
And with or without you,
He'll make it through,
Cause you're paper thin,
And it's visible.

When I get the chance,
To expose the truth,
I'm gonna make my move,
I'm gonna make my move.
Cause you're all two sides,
And you're struggling,
We won't let this slide,
No baby not this time.

Cause you're in love with love,
You're not in love with him.
And I can tell by the way you play it off,
Like you don't know what you're doing to him.

We've heard all about you,
We know you're every move,
Cause you're paper thin,
And it's visible.
And with or without you,
He'll make it through,
Cause you're paper thin,
And it's visible

Shake It :
My cowboy boots they don't seem to fool not anyone,
not even you. I've got an old suitcase full of my old ways
but I tossed it away and I swallowed that key.

So take a deep breath and throw it all away.
Don't fight, cause this is what you need.
come on and shake, shake, shake it around and around and around again.
Don't fight, cause this is what you need.
come on and shake, shake, shake it around and around and around again.

And oh my god, when you move that way
you're gonna get every boy you meet in this entire town.
and oh my god when you move that way
you're gonna get everybody you meet including me.

So take a deep breath and throw it all away.
Don't fight, cause this is what you need.
come on and shake, shake, shake it around and around and around again.
Don't fight, cause this is what you need.
come on and shake, shake, shake it around and around and around again.

Come on and shake it.
shake it for me.

Don't fight, don't fight, cause this is what you need.
come on and shake, shake, shake it around and around and around again.
Don't fight, cause this is what you need.
come on and shake, shake, shake it around and around and around again

Daisy :
I picked you up and lifted your wilted frame into the sun.
I was taken back, yeah i was taken back,
and by the time i caught my breath,
you had blossomed into something that i did not expect.

and if it takes all night,
I swear i'll wait,
for you,
forever.

sunlight, sunshine,
all for you my daisy.
we're getting this before you leave,
all for you my daisy.

you're a wreck and you know,
you've got me wrapped around your finger,
like a boy tangled in vines,
but i've figured you out.

and now we're here,
we're so confused,
and i wish that there was some way that i could tell you.

and if it takes all night,
I swear i'll wait,
for you,
forever.

sunlight, sunshine,
all for you my daisy.
we're getting this before you leave,
all for you my daisy.

[x3]

all for you my daisy

Count 'em, One, Two, Three :
You count em' one, two three
You look so cute when you get that mad
You drain the life from me and it feels oh so good

The looks you give are so contagious
The way we move is so outrageous
Just let me in (wasting time)
Just let me in Let's make it look right

So stay up and get down
Sleep's just time spent wasting time
So get down, get down
Let's make it happen all night

You're moving close, my pulse is racing
We're getting close, yeah I can taste it
I've never done it quite like this
So slow it down now, just slow it down

The looks you give are so contagious
The way we move is so outrageous
Just let me in (wasting time)
Just let me in, Let me in

So stay up and get down
Sleep's just time spent wasting time
So get down, get down
Let's make it happen all night

Reach out touch someone
So try to catch me if you can
Reach out touch someone
Touch someone (touch me)

Reach out touch someone
So try to catch me if you can
Reach out touch someone
Touch someone (just touch)

Reach out touch someone
So try to catch me if you can
Reach out touch someone
Touch someone (touch)

So stay up and get down
Sleep's just time spent wasting time
So get down, get down
Let's make it happen all night
