Do What I Say

Do what I say
not what you see me do
do what the old man expects of you
do what you want
‘til your face turns blue
do what you don’t want to and say you do
I love to make you cry
I love to make you cry
Don’t work so hard
just let it come to you
don’t push off what you should be pulling through
don’t look away you ain’t seen the best part yet
don’t forget the things I told you not to forget
I love to make you cry
I can’t imagine why
it feels so good inside
like I’m gonna die
I love to make you cry

Drowning In Moonlight

Drowning in moonlight
Under a neon light
down by the corner bar
we share our first kiss
and then go out walking
but it feels more like swimming
and then I am holding you
the sun hasn’t shown
but I know it’s morning
No the birds don’t sing
and church bells don’t ring
you make the world stand still
but it’s morning
Drowning in moonlight
No the birds don’t sing
and church bells don’t ring
you make the world stand still
but it’s morning
It's morning
Now if the sun never shows
I just want you to know
how I don’t mind
drowning in moonlight
And now if the sun never shows
I just want you to know
how I don’t mind
drowning in moonlight
drowning in moonlight
drowning in moonlight

Common Ground

One of these days we'll go get us one
of those things I've heard you say
look so much fun
then afterwards we can sit and talk about the things we did
and how the world seems smaller now
that we have found our common ground
Any day now I'm gonna get far away
from all these things I bought that make my dreams stall
I'll sleep a while then wake up to
a world that's made for me and you
how the world seems smaller now that we have found our common ground
Ooh, ooh sharing infinite love
there almost ain't enough of forever with you
ooh, ooh sharing infinite love with you
with you
Let's sleep a while let's wake up to a morning made for me and you
how the world seems smaller now that we have found our common ground
Ooh, ooh sharing infinite love
there almost ain't enough of forever with you
ooh, ooh sharing infinite love with you
ooh, ooh sharing infinite love with you

Friction

Evidently Madaline knew something about the way
God moves
never needed another soul
make a little friction of her own
coming off a little bit strong
being where you don't belong
serving up a rowdy blue song
make a little friction of your own
get swept up in the heat of this momment
get swept up in the heat of this momment
you know what you've got to do
you don't like being stuck in glue
if only with the shadows you throw make a little friction of your own
if only with the shadows you throw make a little friction of your own
friction friction friction
get swept up in the heat of this momment
get swept up in the heat of this momment
you know what youv've got to do
you don't like being stuck in glue
if only with the shadows you throw make a little friction of your own
if only with the shadows you throw make a little friction of your own
friction friction

In September

In September the leaves turn to brown
falling in the rain
every year the same
I remember our last short goodbye
all the way back home just to find ourselves alone
to cry
she don't know why
she can't understand
why you've gone away
and where you're gonna stay
and she sees me with fear in my eye
saying it's ok then turn the other way
and cry through the night
cry
In September the leaves turn to brown
fall in disarray
every year the same
I remember our last short goodbye
all the way back home just to find ourselves all alone
to cry to cry to cry
through the night
to cry

Your Love

Although I honestly don't know what I could say
I want to make amends to you my friend
how can I make it up to you?
I know I let us both down
life seems so pointless now living without your love
As low as I can go
I do believe I know what is right and wrong
help me be strong
how can I make it up to you?
I know I let us both down
life seems so pointless now living without your love
life seems so pointless now living without your love
your love
your love
I sure let us both down
I know I let us both down
life seems so pointless now living without your love
I want to make it up to you
how can I make it up to you?
life seems so pointless now living without your love
life seems so pointless now living without your love
your love
your love
your love

What to wear
which new hat?
been there done all that
got all the honey in the world
Open the door after one know
on the rocks around the clock
got all the honey in the world
Going up hold it down
who's got the key?
got all the honey in the world
Plenty left when we get through
more than enough for me and you
got all the honey in the world
Always know what you're gonna do
three steps ahead of you
Going up hold it down
who's got the key?
got all the honey in the world
going up hold it down
who's got the key?
got all the honey in the world

If you want answers
you don't wanna waist a day
all I've got is questions
enough to make a few enemies
And I know it never did no good
just to lean one way then to lean another way
Heaven may be waitin'
nothin' makes sense to me
is it any wonder?
with seven billion shades of grey
And I know it never did no good
just to lean one way then to lean another way
and I know I never felt so good
as when I stood by someone
that I knew would never let me down
I know it never did no good
just to lean one way then to lean another way
and I know I never felt so good
as when I stood by someone
that I knew would never let me down
I never felt so good
as when I stood by someone
that I knew would never let me down
