Found it living on my telephone Your voice and our last song So in love so full of hope Before you stopped laughing at my jokes I can finally say I'll make it ok with you not there, not there Everyone stares I'm cutting my hair with you not there Not there There's medication in my old head phones Infinite doses of our last song Each time I listen I gain hope From this perfect dream we won't wake up You belong, you belong I can finally say I'll make it ok with you not there, not there Everyone scared I'm jumping off chairs with you not there Not there I can finally say I'll make it ok with you not there, not there Everyone stares I'm cutting my hair with you not there Not there Oh the lies we tell, just so we can go on Oh the lies we tell, just so we can go on I can finally say I'll make it ok with you not there, not there Everyone scared I'm jumping off chairs with you not there Not there I can finally say I'll make it ok with you not there, not there Everyone stares I'm cutting my hair with you not there Not there

I fell in love when I was three With a girl that I knew from the movies I’d tag along with my big sister But I was too young for her next moving picture That was in the time of my life That was in the 80’s We were dancing just like Swayze To wake me up before you go go Oh how I miss the 80’s But I’m too young to really know In ‘92 she made a change Sculpted plastic all into her face Then my love disappeared I haven’t seen her in 20 odd years That was in the time when I cried Cuz love was just a memory MacGyver and the A-Team But the Cosby’s had my favourite show Oh how I missed the 80’s I'm too young to really know Where’s Cyndi Lauper Lately And Molly Ringwald where’d she go go? Oh how I miss the 80’s I don’t know cuz I’m too young Too young, to know (to young to know) Too young, to know (to young to know I’ll find my way to yours, I’ll find my way to yours, I’ll find my way to your heart We were dancing just like Swayze When Jennifer Grey had a nose Oh how I missed the 80’s I’m too young to really know Too young, to know

Oh on Granville Bridge one night such a barefoot delight Holding hands and counting stars to the whistle of the passing cars I was falling so in love with you You were trying hard not to We’ll find our place together, our home With sand and sun forever, our home Let’s move up on Miami Beach, we’ll do everything you’ve ever dreamed Just put it on your credit card, I can pay it off when I hit the charts Maybe you could fall in love with me I will try to follow your lead Things have never been the same since you went away, since you went away Sky and earth have turned to grey since you went away, since you went away Every corner every street is a memory that you ran away I chased and chased and chased and chased since you ran away. Why’d you run away? Oh on Granville Bridge one night such a barefoot delight Holding hands and counting stars at the whistle of the passing cars We talked until the sunrise lit up and closed our eyes With your head upon my chest, tried to make the moment last I’m so in love with you, I’m so in love with you We’ll find our place together…

Why aren't we Why aren't we meant to be My sweet little fantasy You run but you never leave How you look at me How the air I breathe The tickles and the tingling But my telephone never rings You want my friendship but I want more I don't know why I can't let go How am I only a joke to you You just laugh at the things I do To tell you my love is true And if you, need not my hand to hold You'd rather just die alone Just think of all those nights I held you You want my friendship but I want more I don't know why I can't let go I'd love to tell you how much I do care Would anything change if I even dared to And chances are we're not meant for eachother But you'll never know cuz you won't bother to find out You say you love me how you joke If love was a stock then we'd all be broke I'd love to tell you how much I do care Would anything change if I even dared to You want my friendship but I want more I don't know why I can't let go I'd love to tell you how much I do care Would anything change if I even dared to

Those Eyes 03:09
When did you become so loved? You’re just a girl back in grade 9 That no one cared to get to know of So I thought I would find out why So I sat next to you in class Oh how I fell in love so fast With those eyes those eyes those eyes Ain’t it funny how all it takes is a question? Something simple like how you’ve been doing And after a week, I felt myself in deep From daydreams to my sleep and in and out of me Were those eyes, those eyes, those eyes I love those eyes, those eyes those eyes I love your eyes your eyes your eyes I love your eyes your eyes your eyes I remember our first phone call I was rude, I said something like so what you want? And you said “it’s nothing big I just called to talk” And we sat on our front steps and we carried on About those eyes, those eyes, those eyes I love those eyes, those eyes those eyes I love your eyes your eyes your eyes I love your eyes your eyes your eyes

So Long 03:53
So long It’s been so long since we So long And you ask for direction On how to win my affection I’d love to tell you I’d love to tell you how We used to be great but it’s a little too late for love I still see those eyes and how they take me back To when I thought I was your only darling I won’t hold you close and take you like you think I would do I’ve found better without you So long It’s been so long since we So long You know right from wrong You never leave a baby never leave a baby alone Every June 11, you keep buying those presents You can’t believe your baby, can’t believe your baby is gone I still see those eyes and God they take me back To when I thought I was your only darling I won’t hold you close and take you like you think I would do I’ve found better without you

The saddest thing that you've never seen Mother knelt before As the colour leaves and a body freezes It's Just a vacant form of you We’re helpless til the neighbours come Too late...too late I can’t see, I can’t breathe I’m tearing at the seams Mother please, off your knees There’s no one here but me And they call us up until I have to disconnect the phone They’re only looking out for me yes they’re looking out for me again And I think I know it well till mother up and does the same She was looking out for me, she was looking out for me again I can’t see, I can’t breathe I’m tearing at the seams Mother please, off your knees There’s no one here but me Father leaves, children grieve I'm tearing at the seams

With a hammer in my hand The shards of your heart are a puzzle in the dark But I can rebuild you When a mermaid tramples our sand castle I can rebuild you With a hammer in my hand, I can glue it but I’ll always see the crack With a hammer in my hand, I can’t love you with a hammer in my hand So Let go, let go, let it go oh oh Let go, let go, let it go oh oh Of the hammer in my hand “What do you mean? I’m not your man no more” (no more no more) She packed a bag of her things, and dropped the keys to my door But I know she’ll pick it up again, pick it up again I know she’ll pick it up again, pick it up again And don’t Let go, let go, let it go oh oh Let go, let go, let it go oh oh Of the hammer in my hand Which side of hell? Which side of hell, did your arms break and lungs cave in? Which side of hell? Which side of hell, Has the longest, longest days The sight of her, the sight of her makes my heart break and lungs cave in? The sight of her, the sight of her So Let go, let go, let it go oh oh (cuz i can rebuild you, you know i can rebuild you) Let go, let go, let it go oh oh (cuz i can rebuild you, you know i can rebuild you) Of the hammer in my hand

You find me in here wishing I had more, Than this little bear to hold And the sheets don’t keep me warm You tell me that I best be on my way It’s far too sunny of a day To sit here feeling grey The outside seems, I’d fall in love with the birds and the trees But they fly away and they lose their leaves And everything that I’d hope we’d be Just makes me crazy I saw you in the park the other day With a smile I’d never seen And a man that wasn’t me You told me that you best be moving on As you held onto his arm You never said so long…. On the outside you seemed Awful happy, but what’s underneath? I still miss you don’t you still miss me And everything that I hoped we’d be Just makes me crazy, Makes me crazy Makes me crazy But I’m not crazy

At the calm before the storm I opened up your heart With a surgery of sound We were found, we were found There were all the friends we’d lost And the lovers that we'd crossed And the choices that we'd made, replayed And we were saved You can’t leave me, you can’t leave me This part is rather deceiving There will be weeping there will be grieving I’ll always stay in your heart You try to forget the lessons we learned You send me pictures that you’d like to burn And we make plans but you never come I pretend you did with cocaine and rum All the pain, you feel every day You found a way you claim you fucked it away I’m not convinced, I’m really not sold Cuz there’s a pain inside that will never go go go You can’t leave me, you can’t leave me I’ll have you nailed to the ceiling There will be weeping, there will be grieving But you will stay in my heart You can’t leave me, you can’t leave This part is rather deceiving There will be weeping, there will be grieving But you will stay in, you'll always stay in my heart

Mother's Day 04:10
You never know what you have until it’s gone, and it’s gone I heard you found your new love Older and wiser and more clean cut I hope to god that he knows You’re the queen and he should do as he’s told I hope he worships the ground you walk on Kneels down and kisses your toes But when he don’t…. You remember what you meant to say to me on Mother’s day You ain’t ever gonna find a baby as good as me When you remember what you meant to say to me it’s too late When you replace me what I’d like to know how it get’s Better, better, better, better, better When you replace me what I’d like to know how it get’s Better, better, better, better, better Cuz you never know what you have until it’s gone And it’s gone Some nights I wake up missing you Somewhere between about 1 and half past 2 Some nights I feel like being used So I call every girl I know, to fill the hole You remember what you meant to say to me it’s mother’s day You ain’t ever gonna find a baby as good as me When you remember what you meant to say to me it’s too late Too, too, too, too late to When you replace me what I’d like to know how it get’s Better, better, better, better, better When you replace me what I’d like to know how it get’s Better, better, better, better, better With you not around, I’m gonna be fine with it, fine with it But I might be wrong, I might be wrong, Cuz you never know what you have until it’s gone You remember what you meant to say to me it’s mother’s day You ain’t ever gonna find a baby as good as me When you replace me what I’d like to know how it get’s Better, better, better, better, better When you replace me what I’d like to know how it get’s Better, better, better, better, better Cuz you never know what you have until it’s gone It’s gone.
