Me and You 03:22
Why’d you have to run away and leave me here alone When all you are to him is flesh and bone? There’s more to this than meets the eye now you of all should know He’s not the safest place for you to go We’re just an ordinary version of a complicated situation A not so different shade of blue But I’m a firm believer in a certain kind of confrontation But the kind that’s only meant for two That’s me and you, That’s me and you I know you got a million reasons maybe, so do I But they don’t mean so much without you here You can tell him all about the way I made you cry He’ll listen sweetly, wipe away your tears Oh, You’ll never get conviction in your endless search for consolation As long as you don’t look at you But I’m the only mirror that will bring you back to your reflection A little mirror meant for two That’s me and you, That’s me and you Maybe on a distant shore you’ll find what you are looking for And someplace not far away from you Maybe you’ll come back to me just in time for you to see That three will never feel the same as two That’s me and you. That’s me and you

You used to love to see me, now you turn away You never liked my leaving, but that was yesterday If it would bring you comfort, I’d sleep out in the rain I’d gladly break my heart tonight, if it would ease your pain I’m gonna ease your pain I told you I was sorry, a thousand times before But it’s so hard to hear those words behind a closing door If it would bring you happiness, I’d climb aboard a train I’d gladly break my heart tonight, if it would ease your pain Oh, I guess this love will have to live without you This broken heart, It was made to last If you ever need, if you ever need my help baby You just have to ask I guess I’ve worn out another welcome Like that old suitcase that just waits under the stairs I’ve been thinking you’d be better off with me baby when I’m not there Our love is like a riverbed, it lies beneath the sun And our hearts are like two floating leaves, headed for the fall If it would calm these waters for me not to remain I’d gladly break my heart tonight, if it would ease your pain Gladly break my heart tonight, if it would ease your pain Gladly break my heart tonight, if it would ease your pain

Carrying You 03:50
Come on get up on my back you know we got a ways to go The wind is picking up and I think its gonna snow I’ll pull us up this mountain if takes me all day long The only thing you gotta do is sing your pretty song I’ll take you to the top where I’ll kiss you like a fool You lift me up but it’s me who’s carrying you It feels like it’s getting harder but the sky is turning blue I keep on getting stronger every time I look at you Maybe I will stumble but you know we’ll never fall When you’re up on my shoulders I’m 22 feet tall It doesn’t make a difference if my body breaks in two You lift me up even though I’m carrying you One day you’re gonna wake up and find that I am gone There’ll be another shoulder there for you to cry upon That trail will look familiar as you look upon that hill Even though I cannot carry you, somebody will He might look like an angel, and he might look like a fool He’ll lift you up but it’s me who’s carrying you Always me who’s carrying you Yes it’s me who’s carrying you

Little Angel 03:58
Oh little angel why you get so sad, I guess I understand Somebody hurt you, hurt you bad, baby hold my hand Oh little angel you can help yourself, and anyone you see Please don’t put me back up on that shelf, listen to my plea You can run away, away with me Take my hand I can lead you up to the sun Close your eyes and forget about everyone I’ll explain it all to you on the run Little Angel what’s done is done, what’s done is done Little Angel why you get so mad, you think I did not care Somebody left you and you felt so sad, baby fair is fair Oh little angel I’m in love with you, out here in the rain Tried so hard to get away from you, just to ease your pain But only you can stop, stop this rain Take my hand I can lead you up to the sun Close your eyes and forget about everyone I’ll explain it all to you on the run Little angel what’s done is done. What’s done is done, What’s done is done Oh little angel I’m in love with you, there’s nothing left to say I’ll do anything at all for you, if you would only stay Oh follow me right this way Oh, take my hand I can lead you up to the sun Close your eyes and forget about everyone. I’ll explain it all to you on the run Little angel what’s done is done
6.
Maybe I’ll come back to you, maybe you’ll come back to me, Oh we’ll see If you let me take your hand I don’t care who takes the lead, Lead me So many people on the floor I can’t see them anymore They start to disappear when I feel your body near So stay right here with me move in perfect harmony I close the book on what was wrong when you whispered in my ear ooh so clear All the ones who came before, they just vanished on that night, ooh that’s right It’s so hard to let you go, you’ll slip back to me I know We were shining like the sun, right in front of everyone Oh the music starts to play and it feels like yesterday So come on, let’s dance Baby let’s dance You had a few bad partners too, I didn’t care about your past. It didn’t last Right now is all I have for you, I’ll give you both my hands, no demands Mmm I waited for so long, thought you’d never come along Now you’re holding on to me, you’re the only one I see My heart, it skips a beat, I can feel it in my feet So come on, lets dance Baby let’s dance Twenty years of loving you, you still fit into that dress, Oooh, yes We may push and we may shove, but I’ll always wake with you, you know it’s true The way you move under the light, doesn’t matter if we fight All the lines just fade away when your body starts to sway Doesn’t matter what you do, I just want to be with you So come on, let’s dance Baby let’s dance

I been cleanin’ up all morning- took out the garbage too And when I was putting away my suitcase.... guess what? I found that other shoe I could sit here and watch a movie , maybe go down and talk to Joe But I can't stop thinking about you baby, now where did I put that telephone? I got nothing... better to do... than you No there's nothing- better than you- for me to do Seems like everybody's running around looking for someone like you But I’m so happy just to sit here baby, while I'm running out of things to do I am at the bottom of my list baby. I even hung up all my nice clothes But the only thing I really need to get done is you and everybody knows I got nothing- better to do- than you No there's nothing- better than you- for me to do
8.
I’m going back to where we fell down on the sand where all was well Cause I don’t wanna feel you in so much pain And I remember before the storm, before the rain when it was warm I’m going back to the ocean where we fell And if the sky was to fall down on you, I would be there Go ahead, forget my name then go find somebody the same I’ll be there if the sky, was to fall down on you. I never hear the words you say, when you cry I turned away I could never get to you, without you. I tried so hard to fall asleep, you took my soul, it’s yours to keep. I’m still laying here baby, without you. If the sky was to fall down on you I would be there Go ahead, forget my name. Then go find somebody the same I’ll be there if the sky was to fall down on you. Close your eyes, I’ll lead the way – it’s okay We won’t make it if we stay If the sky was to fall down on you, I would be there. Go ahead, forget my name then go find somebody the same I’ll be there if the sky was to fall down you

Crazy 03:42
She used to say it was the way that I walked... the way that I talked...or maybe just the way that I touched her She told me once i was her missing link.....the kitchen sink.... The last thing she needed to complete her Bet then time broke her down and it took its toll I couldn't find my heart and then she lost control She chased me down the block with loaded gun She said"if you can't love me then you cant love anyone!" Tell me when did "Crazy 'bout me"……. Turn into just plain "Crazy" I used to be so crazy 'bout you……. But now you're just plain "Crazy" I remember when we kissed that night... it felt just right A love so tight we couldn't break it(even if we wanted to) You said I was the "one" to ease your mind For the very first time....you found you didn't have to fake it But then change rushed in like a hurricane I guess you lost mind somewhere in the pouring rain Then I noticed something different bout that look in your eye The one that let me know.... I was just about to die..... Tell me when did "Crazy 'bout me"……. Turn into just plain "Crazy" I used to be so crazy 'bout you...…. But now you're just plain "Crazy"

I’ve heard it in about a thousand songs on the radio Girl I know I ain’t the first man to ever feel this way Some guys got a real fine gift for poetry It’s no surprise to me when I struggle to find the words to say But it feels so right me here loving you. And your being here tonight is like a dream come true Having you in my life is everything to me I know it’s all been said before, But this time by me. This time it’s me. The first time I saw your face you took my breath away so I couldn’t say that I loved you, but I do now baby Some guys like to fall in love then they walk away when they’ve had enough it’s so easy, but not for me baby I don’t need nobody else’s inspiration, I can make it up to you with my own imagination Cause I want you right here by me baby you’re everything I need I know it’s all been said before, But this time by me. This time it’s me I don’t need nobody else’s information, I can find my way back to you with my own determination Cause I want you right here by me baby, you’re everything to me I know it’s all been said before You know it’s all been said before, I know it’s all been said before, But this time by me. This time it’s me.
