I've Cried 4 U
01:55
|
|||
When I first saw you at the show
I felt this love begin to grow
But I watched my dreams unfurl
When I saw you with that girl
And I've cried 4 U
Let me show you I can be
The kind of girl you want to see
Very first when you wake up
And last at night when your eyes shut
And I've cried 4 U
It's sad when you've been alone as long as I've been
When you're a her, and you never seem to have a him
It's sad when you've been alone as long as I've been
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Flipside panned your new CD
But you still mean the world to me
What do they know anyway?
After all, they're from L.A.
And I've cried 4 U

If You Were Here
02:40
|
|||
If you were here with me
We could hold hands while we're walking
Or ride the subway, miss our stop
Cuz we're too busy talking
If you were here with me
We could go to shows together
Dance around like a couple of jerks
And if they stare, who cares?
We've got each other
We could have sleepovers all of the time
You could use my toothbrush, I wouldn't mind
We'd watch Cartoon Network and dye our hair
That is if you were here instead of there
If you were here
I looked on the map today
Counted seven states between us
If you don't count New Jersey...
Which I don't
And all my friends they say
Long distance sucks and that I
Should just forget about you
Get on with my life, but I won't
I'll just keep dreaming that the day will come
We'll go make out in Yankee Stadium
We'll order just one milkshake with two straws
If you were here I could still write you postcards and
Letters but then I'd just deliver them by hand
You see cuz then I'd get to watch you face as you
Open them up and read bout how much I like you
I'd wear your leather jacket, you'd wear mine
You'd never be without a Valentine
We'd paint each other's toenails when we're bored
Or go out cruisin in my mom's Accord
We could spray paint out names inside a heart
Or shoplift all the Hot Wheels from K-Mart
I'd play my bass while you'd play your guitar
That is, if you were here instead of far

I Want A Boy
02:25
|
|||
I'm lyin' in bed and
I'm dreamin' about you
Don't know who you are but
I'll know when I've found you
And now I imagine
You lyin' here with me
How you'd turn off the light
And then lean over to kiss me
But for now imagining's all I can do
Cuz try as I might, I still haven't found you
Would someone please tell me what I gotta do?
I want a boy
I want a boy of my own
If I have to, I'll search through
The whole population
I've got the patience
And determination
Cuz this time I'm waiting
Around for the right guy
Whose love lights me up like
The moon lights the night sky
I don't really know what this love thing's about
But at this point, I must say I'm dying to find out
If I have to, I'll get on my roof and I'll shout
I'm sick of the previews
I want the main attraction
It's gotta have romance, a whole lot of laughs
And plenty of action
I'll accept no limitations
I won't be fooled by a decoy
I'll know the genuine thing when I see it
I'll know at long last when I have found my boy
(He'll kiss me and know that it's meant to be
I'll look in his eyes, see my destiny)

Hey you, do you know what today is?
Today's a very special day
Today's the day that I found out
How nice your eyes are from just one inch away
Hey you, do you know what today is?
It's the best I've had in a long time
Today's the day I finally know
What your cheek feels like when it's next to mine
No more waiting... hesitating...
No more anticipating
Today - today's the day I finally kissed you
I'm not afraid to say I always thought we should
Today - today's the day I finally kissed you
And I'm glad to say it felt as good
As I always knew it would
Do you know how rad today is?
It is super-rad times infinity
Today's the day I finally know
How you skin is soft and your lips are sweet
Do you know how great today is?
If they had a contest, it would win first place
Today's the day I finally know
What your hands feel like when they're on my waist
No more guessing... no more stressing...
That shit was getting depressing
When I opened my eyes this morning
I could never in a million years have guessed
Today I'd finally hold you close
I could feel your heart beat against my chest
Do you know how many times I've imagined this day
And dreamed what it would be like?
Now it's finally here, and all I have to say
Is hey you, this day is out of sight

Doot Da Doot
02:34
|
|||
I saw you and wahoo!
I just had to have you for my own
And yikes I was psyched and
My head spun around like a cyclone
And who'd have thought a girl like me
Could find a boy like you?
When I'm looking back now
I just can't believe how the time's flown
When we met that's the day I can't forget
When we touched never knew I'd feel this much
When we kissed it could only be described as bliss
You're the one for me undeniably whoa
Doot da doot da doot doot da doo da doot
It's sweet and it's funny
I'm feelin so sunny from your love
Wouldn't think of quitting
Cuz so far it's fitting like a glove
And who'd have thought a brat like me
Could find a prince like you?
You're silly and clever
And I just can't ever get enough
When I'm feelin crappy
I'm blue and unhappy
You know how to cheer me
Always want you near me
I'm flakey I babble
I'm lousy at Scrabble
You don't care you love me
And all the parts of me
It's light and it's breezy
Loving you is easy
You're soft and you're squishy
Your eyebrows are bushy
You're simply so dreamy
You gotta forgive me
I can't help but stare
No one could compare
When we met that's the day I can't forget
And back then who knew I'd fall in love with you?
When we kissed it could only be described as bliss
You're the one for me undeniably whoa

Vacation
02:27
|
|||
We're both so busy, we work so hard and
I never see you, it's totally retarded
When we're together, we're both so tired
Sometimes I wish we'd just get our asses fired
Cuz that way you and me, we could hang out all day
Do what we wanna do, we gotta find a way
Let's go on vacation
Let's go on vacation
I'll make all the reservations, no cancellations
Time for vacation, whoa
Go to the zoo, and we'll ride the llamas
Or stay in bed, never changed out of pajamas
We'll scream our heads off on a roller coaster ride
Or make even more noise by stayin' inside
I'm sick of sharing, I want you to myself
Let's run away and reclaim our mental health
Let's go on vacation
There's no time for hesitation
No time for deliberation, procrastination
Gotta go on vacation, whoa
You and I know
If Weezer can go
On Holiday than so
Can we - let's go
You and I know
If Belinda and the Go-Go's
Can go on vacation than so
Can you and me, it's time to go
There'll be no aggravation, no agitation
Stress or frustration
And our only destination is rest and relaxation
For the duration
We gotta go on vacation, let's just go on vacation
Time to go on vacation, whoa

I Already Know
02:46
|
|||
I know that you think you're no good at this
I've seen how your tongue gets tied in a twist
Trying to make sense of everything you feel inside
I know that you think you'll fuck it all up
I know how you've been unlucky in love
Hard to open up when all you feel is terrified
But you don't have to say it, cuz I already know it
There's something in your eyes can't help but show it
You don't have to tell me you love me
Cuz I already know that you do
I already know that you do
I know that you think you can't get it right
Gotten used to disappointment and fights
Told yourself that maybe you're just not cut out for love
You think that things like this they never work out
Not for guys like you, your head's full of doubt
You feel like you're crazy, never gonna find the one
And you can't always say it, you feel afraid to show it
But when you take my hand somehow I know it
You don't have to tell me you love me
Cuz I already know that you do
I already know that you do
Words get misconstrued, they're always taken the wrong way
The game can feel so hard, it seems easier not to play
You spend a lot of time not knowing what to feel or say
I know that it's hard, I know and baby it's okay
Do you know that this is hard for me too?
Do you know I feel as crazy as you?
We've both got our issues, used our share of tissues in the past
It makes me want to laugh when I think of
Two fuck-ups like us just trying to find love
Trying not to blow it, fighting 'gainst the odds to make it last
And I can't always say it, but still I hope you know it
I'm doing what I can to try and show it
And babe, if I can't tell you I love you
I hope you already know that I do

Bein' In Love
02:26
|
|||
Bein' in love, it's a pain in the ass (oh yeah, baby)
Bein' in love, it's a pain in the ass (oh yeah)
Cuz when things get hard, and you feel like giving up
You can't, cuz you know that it would hurt too much
You're sick of it all his shit, and you wanna run away
But something in your heart keeps telling you to stay
When he holds you in his arms you forget all of the times
That he's acted like a jerk in the past
And that's why bein' in love - baby it's a pain in the ass
Oh yeah
Bein' in love, it's a pain in the ass (oh yeah, baby)
Bein' in love, it's a pain in the ass (oh yeah)
You drive each other crazy, he makes you blow your top
You can't count all the times he's completely pissed you off
But just one look from him, just one gentle touch
And you know you've never cared about anyone this much
And it's hard, cuz you realize it takes a lot of work
If you wanna make a good thing last
And that's why bein' in love baby it's a pain in the ass
And it feels like forever one day
The next it feels like it's no use
And you're scared cuz the more you got
The more you know you got to lose
And some days you wanna hold on tight
And other days you wanna just break loose
But when you feel his hand inside your hand
You know that holding tight is what you choose
Bein in love
You wanna toss up your hands and throw it all away
But then you know you don't find love like this one every day
That why it's worth it all baby
But baby...
It's a pain in the ass

Counting Sheep
03:28
|
|||
It was almost ten till two
You and I had had a fight
I hadn't slept a wink since you
Rolled over and said goodnight
I've heard it said two people in love
Should never go to bed mad
But they never said nothin bout going to bed
Feeling devastated and sad
Well, you were lying fast asleep
While I was still up counting sheep
You said “There's nothing more to say
And I'm too tired anyway”
You were lying fast asleep
While I was still up counting sheep
How can you sleep so peacefully
While I go over all the things you said to me?
God, I hate it when we fight
Did you mean the things you said?
They're gonna keep me up all night
Echoing inside my head
Ooh, I've heard it said two people in love
Should never go to bed mad
Well, I'm not mad, baby, but how can I sleep
With a heart that's aching this bad?
And you're just an inch away
But it feels more like a mile
I was hoping you would stay
Awake for just a little while
Honey, we could work it out
Or at least give it a try
Sick of staring at the walls
I wanna stare into your eyes
You were lying fast asleep
While I was crying, trying not to make a peep

It Sucks
03:50
|
|||
You left a week ago yesterday
I watched you drive off heading to L.A.
I fought back the tears you know how I hate to cry
Didn't know how much it'd be to kiss you goodbye
And in a way I wish I was you
Heading cross country with a dream to pursue
I guess till now I never knew
How much it sucks to be the one who's left behind
You're off in the great unknown
While I'm stuck here all alone
Yeah it sucks to be the one who's left behind
How can I get you off of my mind?
I keep passing by the spot where we kissed the first time
I walk past the places we used to eat
I lay alone in the bed where we used to sleep
And in a way I wish I was you
Headin towards a place and a life that are new
Till now I never had a clue
Just how much it sucks to be the one who's left behind
You're off in the great unknown
While I'm stuck here all alone
Yeah it sucks to be the one who's left behind
I never wanted to be that girl
It's the last thing I wanted in the whole world
I never wanted to be that
Mopey, sappy, crying, sighing,
Weepy fucking girl who's left behind

I'm a pop punk girl I like sunny days
Stupid jokes and a good Ramones song
I'm a pop punk girl normally good for a laugh
But without you there's something wrong
Yeah I'm feelin' all empty and I'm feelin' all sad
How did I give up the one good thing that I had?
I'm feelin' all lonesome but what can I do?
I'm feelin' all emo since I broke up with you
It's pathetic why do I spend all my time
Reading your old letters?
I tried to cheer myself up with some MTX
But I didn't feel any better
My friends say I'm cranky and I'm bummin' them out
Instead of a smile I got a permanent pout
I'm feelin' all gloomy but what can I do?
I'm feelin' all emo since I broke up with you
I'm so lonely so misunderstood
No one can relate, no wait, the Get Up Kids could
Jimmy Eat World understands my pain
I'll sit here listening to Clarity again and again
Even Dashboard Confessional's pleasing to me
When I wanna sit and wallow in my own misery
All this emo sounds so great
It's the perfect soundtrack to my heartbreak
I'm not feelin' cheery and I'm not feelin' fine
When I try to speak it just comes out as a whine
I'm not feelin' spunky but what else is new?
All I'm feelin' is emo since I broke up with you

Non Stop Thinking Of You
01:38
|
|||
I'm beginning to annoy myself
With all this nonstop thinking of you
I try and try to think of something else
But no matter what, I just can't seem to
Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop thinking
Nonstop thinking of you
I think I'm going to drive myself mad
With all this nonstop thinking of you
I think about all of the good times we had
It makes me feel all shitty now that we're through
If my brain were a computer
I'd delete all of the files on you
I'd just click-drag them over to the trash
And get on with my life, and start anew
If my head were a great big notebook
I'd rip out all the pages on you and me
But my brain's just a brain, and it does what it wants
And I guess it wants to think about you constantly
I swear to god, I'm totally sick to death
Of all this nonstop thinking of you
Hang upside-down, or hold my breath
I can't escape no matter what I do
