Twentysomething

"Twentysomething" After years of expensive education A car full of books and anticipation I'm an expert on Shakespeare and that's a hell of a lot But the world don't need scholars as much as I thought Maybe I'll go traveling for a year Finding myself, or start a career Could work the poor, though I'm hungry for fame We all seem so different but we're just the same Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat Aren't things more easy, with a tight six pack Who knows the answers, who do you trust I can't even separate love from lust Maybe I'll move back home and pay off my loans Working nine to five, answering phones But don't make me live for Friday nights Drinking eight pints and getting in fights Maybe I'll just fall in love That could solve it all Philosophers say that that's enough There surely must be more Love ain't the answer, nor is work The truth eludes me so much it hurts But I'm still having fun and I guess that's the key I'm a twentysomething and I'll keep being me

"Suddenly I See"

Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on her word

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

And she's taller than most
And she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine
Oh she makes me feel like I could be a tower
A big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

DANCE WITH ME




Let's dance little stranger
Show me secret sins
Love can be like bondage
Seduce me once again
Burning like an angel
Who has heaven in reprieve
Burning like the voodoo man
With devils on his sleeve
Won't you dance with me
In my world of fantasy
Won't you dance with me
Ritual fertility
Like an apparition
You don't seem real at all
Like a premonition
Of curses on my soul
The way I want to love you
Well it could be against the law
I've seen you in a thousand minds
You've made the angels fall
Won't you dance with me
In my world of fantasy
Won't you dance with me
Ritual fertility
Come on little stranger
There's only one last danceSoon the music's over
Let's give it one more chance
Won't you dance with me
In my world of fantasy
Won't you dance with me
Ritual fertility
Take a chance with me
In my world of fantasy
Won't you dance with me

DELILLAH

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as youI swear it's true
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it allEven more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of usand we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This one's for you
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

COME CLOSER

Come closer
Come closer
Come closer to me now
Can't wait any longer
Come closer to me now
Ahoo.. what you do to me?
Ahoo.. what you do to me?
I can feel you in the air
When it's like your everywhere
And the world can disappeare
Just as long as you are near
Your smile is my whole world
Come closer to me now
I've waited forever
Come closer to me now
Ahoo.. what you do to me?
Ahoo.. waht you do to me?
Now you've got me in your spellIt's the best I've ever had
Feel you breathing in my soul
Cause I know you're heaven sent
Take over my senses
Come closer to me now
I've got no defenses
Come closer to me now
Ahoo.. what you do to me?
Ahoo.. what you do to me?
