Me, I’m taking the longer less traveled
They say I could make it someday
I just don’t know what I should look for, but
Sometimes it’s funnier that way

Turn around, stop and listen
Take a moment today
Just think about all you’ve been blessed with,
Cause
Life is funny that way

Chorus

Reasons To Dance

Looking for a hero?
When I stand before you,
You get what you see

Look it up and down
Do I fit the part,
Am I what you want me to be?

Pre-chorus
I’m wondering where it hurts
Where are you weak?
In your heart or in your head?
Is money gonna answer the place I fit
In your life or in your bed?

Chorus
You disregard anyone who makes you sad,
Sad, sad
You may have the money
But you’ll never ever have
Reasons to dance

It’s just paper that you can burn
Like any other friend
Here one day, then gone the next

But to you it’s a strength
That carries it’s own mind
The difference, life and death

Pre-chorus

Chorus

You push the limits
On anything
If you can’t buy than you don’t want

Do you find it to be
A pleasure fantasy
Don’t you fear the ghosts that haunt?

Chorus

One Time…One Life

You say you saw ghosts, and I believe you
They didn’t scare you, didn’t do you no harm
Did they tell you I was waiting on the other
Side of town
Tell you I’d be looking all around

You say you saw God, and I believe you
He told you everything was gonna be alright
Did he tell you I was waiting on the other side
Of town
Tell you I’d be looking day and night

Someone told me something
But whispers ain’t too clear
And secrets keep hiding
‘Til they’re brought out by your fear

One time, in one life
There were walls to climb to make it all
Worthwhile
One time

You say you saw Elvis, and I believe you
Well the odds are probably greater than
Enough

Did he tell you I was waiting on the other side
Of town
Or did he shine you his flask and warm you
Up?

Someone told me something
But whispers ain’t too clear
And secrets keep on hiding
‘Til they’re brought out by your fear
One time, in one life
There walls to climb to make it all
Worthwhile
One time, in one life
If the feeling after all this fight could finally bring a smile
One time

Someone told me something
But whispers ain’t too clear
And secrets keep on hiding
‘Til they’re brought out by your fear

One time, in one life
There were walls to climb to make it all
Worthwhile
One time, in one life
If the feeling after this fight could finally
Bring a smile
One time

Monday Morning

Look out, here it comes again
Do I dare start to open my eyes
I can tell it’s gonna be another long one
See the rain, coming down from the sky

I know that it was just another weekend
And in five days, it comes again
Maybe this one I’ll try to remember
But remembering, has never been a very good
Friend
So go on, go on
Tell me about your weekend
Tell me everything you did
Tell me about your weekend
Tell me are you gonna marry him

Do you really, really think that he is special
Or do you think that it’s all a big lie
I can’t imagine how you felt Sunday morning
Waking up in another man’s eyes

Well you tell me that nothing happened
Yeah, and baby I can have your Tuesday
Night
You know I hardly ever get to see you anymore
Well baby try to take a bigger bite

“I’ll probably never ever get to see him,
cause he’s just a friend of a friend,” she days
says
Friday she tells me she’s gonna work late
And she says it’s gonna happen again and
Again…

So tell me about your weekend
Because I’m a big boy now
Tell me about your weekend
Tell me where, tell me why, tell me when girl
Tell me how, well how baby how?

Do you really think that it is over
Or do you think this boy will call
I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t want to see
Him again
Are you ashamed of it all?

So go on, go on, go on
Tell me about your weekend
Tell me about it all
Tell me about your weekend
Don’t worry baby, I can take the fall

Do you really, really think that I am stupid?
You think I’m just some ignorant thing
Don’t you know you’re never ever gonna see
Me crying, no
It’s just part of Monday morning
Just a part of Monday morning
You know it happens every Monday morning
Just a part of Monday morning
 

Time To Go

Another empty bottle
Another empty town
I guess I was asleep
When the sun went down

Do you want to know my secrets
Learn my fears, taste my sins
My secret’s in the bottle
That I’m living in

If you want answers, don’t look at me
If you want understanding, don’t look at me
You ask me all I know
And I say it’s time to go

You say you’re tired of running
You say you’re tired, so tired of feeling cold
Do you want me to be sorry
For a life I chose?
You say you need more reassurance
An understanding of it all
Well if I knew I’d tell you
Just how far I’d crawl

If you want forgiveness, don’t look at me
If you want surrender, don’t look at me
You ask me all I know
And I say it’s time to go

If you want anger, don’t look at me
If your searching for peace, don’t look at me
You ask me all I know
And I say it’s time to go

Baby

People talkin’ saying you’re gonna leave
I don’t know baby, if I believe
You’ve got nowhere to go
Maybe baby, I just can’t see

We’ve been running, runnin’ too long
To ever think we don’t belong
You’ve got nowhere to go
Maybe baby, maybe I’m wrong

Pre-chorus
Just try to imagine the pain I’d go through
If you walk out that door, there’s no tellin’
Baby
What I’d do

Baby, don’t leave me
Baby don’t leave me

I’ve tried to uncover just what we’ve got
It ain’t much baby, but you’re all I want
Besides, you’ve got nowhere to go
Maybe baby, you’ve got a lot

Pre-chorus
Chorus

Baby, don’t leave me
Baby, don’t leave me
Baby, just trust me
Baby, don’t leave me

Maybe we’ll try just a little harder
Maybe we’ll fall just a little harder
At least we’ll know baby, just where we’re
Going
Baby, we’ll know it’s alright

Baby, I’m begging you

Chorus

Shag

Jenny, can you hear me?
Callin’ down the street
My parents, they’re leaving
And tonite, well were gonna meet

Gonna throw ourselves a party
Just like they used to do
Before they used to teach us
What we did not learn in school

Oh no, you won’t need nothing
Baby, just come inside
Don’t worry about no make-up
You’re gonna have nothing to hide

Chorus
We’ll go downstairs, turn out the lights
Pull down the shades, pretend it’s night
Take our clothes off, throw ourselves a Shag

Everything goes crazy and you’re climbin’ up
A wall
The heavier it gets, the harder when it falls
The room is spinnin’ faster and the door is
Locked outside
And the mailman is waiting for someone to
Sign

Well the weather’s getting sticky and it
Seems
Just all too thick
Your lady friend is calling saying not today
I’m sick
The clouds are pushin’ over like they’re
Gonna
Make it rain
And everything outside acts as if it’s gone
Insane

The taxi man is waiting for the bill you can’t
Afford
And someone who saw something is knocking
On the door
The lady on the corner askin’ if you’re in the 
Mood
I need a shot, I need a fix, something to get
Me feeling good

Chorus

Chorus

Say Goodbye

Everyday I’m losing touch
Of what it’s really all about
I can sit and dream awhile
But I still feel like I’m shut out

I can’t take this heat from above
Tellin’ me that mony’s what’s real
Take a look in my eyes and tell me 
if you think that’s what I feel

Pre-chorus
Take a drink to wash away this memory
Say goodbye, say goodbye

Chorus
Blow a kiss and never look back
I’m heading where dreams fall tough
I’m looking for a peace of mind
But is there ever enough?

Well this whole world just keeps on spinning
But look at me, I’m just standing still
I can’t seem to move to touch you girl
And feel like I never will

Take a spark from the pain inside
And I use it to light my way

Let the truth be my only guide
To get me through another day

Pre-chorus

Chorus

Well you say is there ever a way
That I would let you in
You know deep inside, I’d never hide
The pain for all this sin
Now I’m begging, down on my knees
Take my hand girl I’m fallin’ fast
Let the pain just drown me one last time
To give this life just a little more gas

Pre-chorus

Chorus
