Lyrics to Be Mine :
I never thought we'd come this far
But then how we come that far
And I won't let them in
Cause she's my lover and not my friend

I'm so scared to lose you now
So easy to lose you now
Because there calling at my door
So I'm locking up my door

Now my thoughts are very dark
And my dreams are always dark
Don't let them take me away
Cause I want me to stay

But be mine, oh
Won't you be mine, oh
Be mine, oh oh

Take it all outside
Cause you don't need it
Don't need to cry, oh no
Take it all outside
Cause you don't need me
Don't need to cry

I never thought we'd come this far
But then how we come that far
And I won't let them in
Cause she's my lover and not my friend

I'm so scared to lose it now
Oh it's so easy to lose it now
Because they're calling at my door
So I'm locking up my door

Oh be mine, oh
Wont you be mine, oh

Lyrics to Belly Love :
I've got a fire in my belly
I'm gonna take it and get it on telly
And tell the whole world how I feel about you

Cause I've been wrong so many times
This world hurts because I'm not of your kind
And tell me how to live without glee
On my sleeve

But ooh mister, tell me what life's like for you
And ooh sister, how do I live like you

But you know today I stayed on the train
Oh yes I waited and waited until I could not refrain

And ow ow, something happened and now I can't sing along
And ow ow, yes you love it as you try to get under my skin
And ow ow

Lyrics to California :
Don't you know baby I'm a leading man
I dig down deep when I say I love you
Well I can hold my own with the best of them
I guarantee you, you never seen nothin'
Nothin' like this again

California say that you love me
From all the darkness I couldn't break through
Now, I miss the ocean when I go to sleep
Oh man, it's gonna break my heart

Don't you know that I did the things I did
I rubbed your back when you were sleeping
But all along baby it was understood
That you were leaving, absolutely
The very first day we met

California say that you miss me
From all the darkness I couldn't break through
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you

I'm gonna miss ya
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss ya
I'm gonna miss you

I'm gonna miss you...

Lyrics to In My Opinion :
If only I could find, a little piece of my mind,
I'll take you out, and we'd sit,
Beneath the moon of what I did,
Inside of you, I do see,
You would love to be free,
So take it now, it's your right,
There's no need to fight,

Take a bit of my heart for you,
Take a bit of my love for her,
Take a bit of my heart for you,
Take a bit of my soul,

I tried it once again,
To get my opinion, up in their minds,
They're just far too blind,
You've taken all of me,
And put it in the bottom of sea,
If they were right,

If only you could find, a little piece of your time,
I'll take you to a club where they strip,
Oh don't bite those sweet lips,
Inside of you, I do see,
I know, I know you don't want me to,
Oh cause everything's sugared up more then it seems,

Take a bit of my love for her,
Take a bit of my soul for her,
Take a bit of my love for her,
Take a bit of my soul,

I tried it once again,
To get my opinion, up in their minds,
They just don't have mine,
Want my wish, my life,
As they sold by my side,
Shall always see, hey.

Lyrics to Love To Love You :
I know I was a fool when I first met you girl
Once I was a thing between myself
Want you to know that was change girl
I knew in my heart I'd been saved

Because I love to love you
But I'm tied down my honeybee
And yes I love to love you the way that I do
Because you were always on my mind
I think about you all the time
And I miss you

And you skip two of the dance for me
Even in the cold morning light
And you were the one who always had answers
And you knew that you'd nurse me back to health

And yes I love to love you
Yeah but I'm tied down my honeybee
And yes I love to love you the way that I do
But you were always on my mind
Yes I think of you all the time
And I miss you

Londons far away
And you
And the sky has opened up with the things you do

And yes I love to love you
But I'm tied down my honeybee
And yes I would love to love you the way that I do
Oh and I think of you all the time
You I can get off of my mind
And I miss you

Lyrics to Pull Me In :
I get this feeling sometimes
Like theres nothing in the world that isn't mine
And I could have it all
Maybe I should have it all

I'll take you out of your life
Just the one sweet night
And you could take it all
Oh maybe I could rip it off

It's easy to pick and choose
With you and me we can only lose
Just don't fight me off
And I won't write you off

Take me in and then you push me out
Fall all over yourself tonight
And just don't let it go, without a fight
Take me in and then you push me out
Fall all over yourself tonight
And just don't let it go, let it go

So here I am again
Singing songs about the summer
Cause that's when you and me
When we came to be

I brought you home to my guitar
And told you how sweet you really are
Cause you know what's on my mind
Is you getting all this time

It's easy to pick and choose
With you and me we can only lose
Just don't find me out
And I won't fight you off

Take me in and then you push me out
Fall all over yourself tonight
And just don't let it go, let it go

Oh no no, another girl, no no
Don't fight me off little girl

Lyrics to Put Your Back To My Face :
Put your back to my face
No love to give but I want to
And get on my high horse babe
Let me pawn your heart
Doesn't have to be a real thing
I'd settle just for a touch of your skin
Baby blue let me please touch you
Another person, another wave
Another point of view, babe
Am I too good for you
Oh now you're baby blue
Put your back to my face
No love to give but I want to

Lyrics to Slave To The Game :
Slave to the game of insecurity
I'm the first one to go his way
So she as her ... (?)
From me because she's my honey bee
And know one knows I've been here before
In this room, the very same dance floor
Oh I've walked this floor

And it gets so hard for me to change you
Yeah it gets so hard if I change all those things that I do

Same as before
Different now it's a chore
Don't play a game you'll see that
You'll leave me wanting more oh oh oh
Same as before
Different now it's a chore
Well play a game you'll see
You'll leave me wanting more oh oh oh

Slave to the game of this insecurity
A game that's always out to get me
So be here when I get home
Oh to me it's always been the same
You've been a naughty girl going out again
Oh in the dark again

But it gets so hard for me to change you
Yeah it gets so hard if I change all those things that I do

Same as before
Different now it's a chore
Don't play a game you'll see
You'll leave me wanting more oh oh oh
Same as before
Different now it's a chore
Play a game you'll see that
You'll leave me wanting more oh oh oh

Lyrics to Something To Say :

Lyrics to The Window Song :
I look out my window
just to see her arrive
but she'll be gone
just as soon as I open my eyes
just as soon as I open my eyes

and is this a dream
that I'm having
oh, it all seems so real
cause she'll be gone
just as soon as I open my eyes
just as soon as I open my eyes

and I gave her so very much
and I never never give enough
this love is turning me into
something that I'm not
and I got my problems, yes
oh, I've got to be the best
this jealousy is turning me upside down

I look out my window

Lyrics to Seaside :
Do you want to go to the seaside?
I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go
I fell in love at the seaside
I handled my charm with time and slight of hand

Do you want to go to the seaside?
I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go

She handled her charm with time and slight of hand, and oh

But I find it hard to love you girl
When you're far away
Away

Do you want to go to the seaside?
I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go
But I fell in love on the seaside
On the seaside
In the seaside

Wrap your life around evil's trap

But there you are you're sailing away
And you know

Yeah but you should
You never lie to me
Yeah but I will
Never come away
Yeah but you should

Well do you want to see the world what what

Lyrics to Sofa Song :
The city freeze for
I just realised I don't like you
Me and my girl
Are going out for some air
And I will do my best
Just to get under her dress
And catch you out if I can
On the other side of my sofa

Won't you come on over
At the side of my sofa
Oh won't you come on over

The city heated up it
It got blurry cause I'd had enough
And he tried to take your soul
But didn't realise you keep it in a different hole

Won't you come on over
At the side of my sofa
Oh won't you come on over

So here he comes, a man with
A loaded gun, I don't know if he
Wants my soul or my
Cash flow, I s'pose I don't know

So here he comes, a man with a
A loaded gun I don't know if he
Wants my girl's heart or her pearls
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know

Lyrics to Eddie's Gun :
Album Version:
Did you see the way she looked at me?
Honey bee got two lies and she's got me

I tried to love her back
And then I shrunk back into my wrap
And in the barrel of my gun
I hope I'm not the only one

Yes I see the way she looked at me
Oh shes got an eye for an awkward guy like me

I tried to love her back (she's just a girl)
And then I shrunk back into my wrap (she's just a girl)

Lyrics to Ooh La :
In their eyes is the place that you finally discovered
That you love it here, you've got to stay
On the bottom of the rock, an island
On which you find you love it when you twitch
You feel that itch in you pettycoat
Your pretty pretty pettycoat

Then you smiled, he got wild
You didn't understand that there's money to be made
Beauty is a card that must get played
By organisation

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

The world can be a very big place
So be yourself don't get out of place
Love your man and love him twice
Go to Hollywood and pay the price
Oh go to Hollywood

And don't be a star, it's such a drag
Take care of yourself, don't begin to lag
It's a hard life to live, so live it well
I'll be your friend and not in pretend
I know you girl
In all situations

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty
Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pettycoat
Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty
Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pettycoat
In all situations

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

Lyrics to You Don't Love Me :
Oh you don't love me the way that I love you
Cause if you did girl you would not do those things you do
You kill my heart just to see if I will rise
Above your anger and above your lies

And all I see of you
Is when you're not so busy
Oh you're not so busy

And you don't love me the way that I love you
Cause if you did girl you would not do the things you do
You turned my life around and for that I am glad, oh
However much I love you, this love is getting bad

And oh my darling you could chose
The words that only you could use
But you know you'll always be my girl, oh girl
I'd take you out just for a bite
And show you all the city sights
But you know you'll always be my girl, girl

But you don't love me the way that I love you, oh
Cause if you did boy you would not do those things you do
You kill my heart just to see if I will rise, oh
Above your anger and above your lies

But all I see of you
Is when you're not so busy
Oh you're not so busy, yeah

Yeah yeah
Do do do

If you don't love me you don't care
You don't love me you don't care
Cause you don't love me you don't care
You don't love me you don't care

Lyrics to She Moves In Her Own Way :
So at my show on Monday
I was told that someday
You'd be on your way to better things
It's not about your make-up
Or how you try to shape up
To these tiresome paper dreams
Paper dreams honey

So now you pour your heart out
You're telling me you're far out
You're all about to lie down for your cause
But you don't pull my strings
Cause I'm a better man
Moving on to better things

But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day

And at the show on Tuesday
She was in her mindset
Tempered firs and spangled boots
Looks are deceiving
Making me believe it
And these tiresome paper dreams
Paper dreams honey, yeah

So won't you go far
Tell me you're a keeper
You're all about to lie down for your cause
But you don't pull my strings because
Cause I'm a better man
Moving on to better things

But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day

Yes our wish's that we never made it
Through all the summers
We kept them up instead of
Kicking us back down to the suburbs
Yes our wish's that we never made it
Through all the summers
We kept them up instead of
Kicking us back down to the suburbs

But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day

But uh oh, I love her because
She moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show
Just to hear about my day

Lyrics to Matchbox :
Viciously, she sleeps
Walks along her lonely beat
She trips, falls into it all
And I wish I'd bite my lip and crawl up away
From you my little one
From you my little one

Don't come too close
You don't wanna see my ghost
Your rotten but I'm betrayed

Do you want to see my heart bleed?
For you, you and him
Him and you you know my heart bleeds

I'm not saying its your fault
Although you could have done more
Oh you're so naive yet so
How could this been done
By such a smiling sweetheart.
Ohh and your sweet and pretty face

Take me back to the place where I
Loved that girl for all time
Why must life just take away
Every good thing one at a time

I want it back
Well yes I want it back

For such a big thing in my life
The pain it takes the part of me
Turn around and say goodbye
