Tried to deny I had a weakness for you
Tried to hide I did the best I could do
But you weren't to be convinced or fooled
In no time I couldn't get enough of you
We spent some time doing one thing or another
Never really mattered as long as we were together
I was impressed your tricks worked a treat
Realised too late I shouldn't tell you how I feel
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Forgive the doe eyed relentless attention
If it's on I'm on and there's no more use in pretending
Close to the chase it's clear you've had fun playing
Some liberties well you've surely been taking
Now you blew me away with your quick turn around
Clocked a reaction I was least expecting
Realised too late if I wanted to keep you
I'll have to be good at treating you mean
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Oh
I can't deny we had something good
Never see it coming when it coming when it turns on you
Before I knew it I was in too deep, what can I say
Something's just ain't meant to be there
This is trouble and ain't going nowhere
Good riddens to you if that's how you play it
It stops right here I'm throwing you back in
This is a story where no one ever wins
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Well I feel for you
I went and fell for you
Yes I did
I went and fell for you
Yes I did
I went and fell for you

Give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
Give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
I understand that the world is bigger
Than I ever thought possible
I recognize my action knock on you
Even if I've never met you
I don't have to see you to know you exist
I don't have to meet you to feel your suffering
Want to make a difference don't know where to start
Well it ain't in oblivion
You're not at the bottom
You're not at the top
You're just part of something bigger than all of us
Collectively we choose, what
Give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
Give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
There comes a time when all the lights are on
When the time is right to start things off
That's time that you're got to get along
Bare down, bare down
There are times that I can't quite explain
Why it works and why it can't be the same
How it's going to be, the future's not clear to me
And we're stuck in this like everybody else
Trying to find away that doesn't step on toes
I'm happy to get along minding my own
Head down, head down
Give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
Give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
Oh give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do
Oh give me the strength
To carry through
Give me the breath
To do what I got to do

Take a little piece now
And save a little for laters
If you come back in time
There might be more for the taking
Bite only what you can chew
Take only what you can use
There's plenty to go around if we don't abuse
Revine the soul by letting go
The weighty heart and heavy conscience
Release the woes of a troubled world
And give them one by one their fair dealing
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Oh take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Oh take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
It's a heavy burden to bare
If it's knowledge and wisdom we're wasting
To allow a people to fall forsaken
It's a heavy load to shift
What matters now we begin
And don't take to long with the mending and the fixing
So many souls are aching
Too many hearts have been breaking
Forgive the fools that were mistaken
No one ever did find a good use for regret
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Oh take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Oh take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
????
Revine the soul by letting go
Release the woes of a troubled world
Forgive the fools that were mistaken
No one ever did find a good use for regret
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Oh take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
Take a little time to give a little more
Take a little time to know a little more
Save some time to understand
So give a little
Take a little now
Give a little
Take a little now
Give a little
Take a little now
Give a little
Take a little now

There are times when I'm alone
I think of you and I need to calm down
There are times when I see you
I want to tell you that you got to come around
There are things that you possess
I can't resist and could never turn now
There are things that you affect
I never dreamt could ever be found
There's a fire in my soul yeah
Because of you now why don't come around
There's a fire in my soul yeah
Because of you now you ought to come around
Oh come around
Why don't you come around
Oh come around
This here place deep in my heart
Well it won't change no matter where you go
This here place deep in my heart
Is just for you and I know that it will grow
Out of seas of uncertainty
You can come here and I will keep you warm
In times that you are lost
You can come here and I will keep you warm
There's a fire in my soul yeah
Because of you now why don't come around
There's a fire in my soul yeah
Because of you now you ought to come around, come around
Oh come around
Why don't you come around
Oh come around
I can't give what you can buy
But I can give you all I call my own
This comfort, this ease, this state of mind
Ain't nothing we can hold
I can't give what you can buy
But I can give you all I call my own
This comfort, this ease, this state of mind
Ain't nothing we can hold

Come now and dare to be straight with me
I'll share I might even be straight with you
Go on now, shed some skin
So I can get a good look in
And I'll find out what makes you tick
All it's here
Cause you're here and I'm here
And I feel this is where it's gonna get most interesting
Won't you tell me something
Tell me, tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
Tell me, tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
Tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
I know you've got your secrets
Well I've got some too
No need to tell me everything
I'd also like to keep a few
Too sweet to be shy now
Since we've broken down down
Everything that can be broke, oh
Is your story getting old
Well, we've been spending some time
And what a lovely time it's been
Won't you tell me something
Tell me, tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
Oh tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
Tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
Tell me, tell me something true
I'm not sure what you want from me
Nor what I want from you
Some tales I can't quite believe
Even though I'd like to
Sea stories you've been spinning free
You got my curiosity down someone else's memory lane
Oh a little bit too strange
Well, we've been spending some time
And what a lovely time it's been
Won't you tell me something
Tell me, tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
Tell me something true
Won't you tell me something
I'd like to hear something
Won't you tell me something
Cause I'd like to get to know you

I do regret we've been there
I find it hard to remember
My heads doing a good job
Of erasing unwanted memory
Try not to regret a thing
Oh so be bold and be brave and be strong
And learn from all that goes down when it goes wrong
Be bold and be brave and move on
Sweet child make your own
You know it's better that way
Wait for your free ride
Well someone's always got to pay
Sweet child make your own
You know it's better that way
Wait for your free ride
Well someone's always got to pay
Bend it to the positive most of the time
It feels far away too deep under
When I'm bored of it and aching for a change
Biding my time for brand new adventure
Just like my first pair of boots I bought in Boston
Had to change my walk when I got them
Found out some boots aren't just make for walking
'Cause these were made for stomping
Sweet child make your own
You know it's better that way
Wait for your free ride
Well someone's always got to pay
Sweet child make your own
You know it's better that way
Wait for your free ride
Well someone's always got to pay
I do regret we've been there
I find it hard to remember
My heads doing a good job
Of erasing unwanted memory
Try not to regret a thing
Oh so be bold and be brave and be strong
And learn from all that goes down when it goes wrong
Be bold and be brave and be strong and move on
Sweet child make your own
You know it's better that way
Wait for your free ride
Well someone's always got to pay
Sweet child make your own
You know it's better that way
Wait for your free ride
Well someone's always got to pay

Being nice never got you anywhere
Being sweet got you in troubles there
Being nice no never got you very far
You cop it sweet now get on play your part
Sweet memory can't help you grow
Unless you want to live in the past
And live in what you know
You know the rules where'd they ever get you
Someone's gonna push until they get a rise out of you
So come out and say it
This ain't the way you wanted to play it
When your frustration flies over your eyes
And you see your girl with another guy
How many times are you going to live this through
He ain't gonna change, he doesn't deserve you
If you're gonna try well it's got to come true
Pick up all your strength and we'll be waiting here for you
If you're got your doubts, think a year down the line
If you think it's bad now, well baby give it time
He seems to squeeze, all the love out of you
I'm scared he ain't gonna leave nothing left for you
So come out and say it
This ain't the way you wanted to play it
When your frustration flies over your eyes
And you see your boy with another girl
Oh being nice never got you anywhere
Being sweet got you in troubles there
Oh being nice no never got you very far
You cop it sweet now get on play your part
So come out and say it
This ain't the way you wanted to play it
When your frustration flies over your eyes
And you see your boy with another girl
Oh did it take you
Did it take you by surprise
Did it take you
Did it take you
Did it take you by surprise

I'm not giving up on you
I'm giving up on us
'Cause I'm so damn lonely again
And you're so out of touch
Is it not obvious
Not clear enough
That this won't do
This waiting on you
I know you want to be, but you ain't
I know you'd like to be, but you can't
I know you would do, but you don't
So tell me where it leaves me
It leaves me without you
You say you don't understand
And say we will be fine
Deny we got a problem on our hands
But none the less apologise
But before you do, come and understand why
I know you want to be, but you ain't
I know you'd like to be, but you can't
I know you would do, but you don't
So tell me where it leaves me
It leaves me without you
Oh without you
You may be something to so many
And say you want to be everything to me
I've been calling out to you
But you don't hear
And now my hands are tied
And I cry at the thought of losing you
But I'm lonely with or without you
I know you want to be, but you ain't
I know you'd like to be, but you can't
I know you would do, but you don't
So tell me where it leaves me
Oh yeah
I know you want to be, but you ain't
I know you'd like to be, but you can't
I know you would do, but you don't
So tell me where it leaves me
Oh yeah tell me where it leaves me
Oh well tell me where it leaves me
It leaves me without you

Just got to give it time
And then it gets easier
Like the truth
Always making things clearer
Well you got to give it time
And then it gets easier
Like the truth
When it comes to you
Always making things clearer
Boy you can't stop her from running
If she's not ready to settle
If she's not ready to settle down
If she doesn't want to keep you
Let her go there's no use in
There's no use in waiting around
Come now well, come pick up forgive her
She wasn't out to hurt you
Just wasn't meant to be this time
Well you got to give it time
And it's gonna get easier
Like the truth
Always making things clearer
Well you got to give it time
And it's gonna get easier
Like the truth
When it comes to you
Always making things clearer
I don't have any answers
If you're looking at me for them
There are some things that can't be defined
Let it alone try to release her
It's a waste of time to be bitter
I'll distract you for now if that helps you out
My friend you're never alone
We've all been and we've all seen it
There isn't a soul that can't understand
Well you got to give it time
And then it gets easier
Like the truth
Always making things clearer
Well you got to give it time
And it's gonna get easier
Like the truth
When it comes to you
Always making things clearer
Come now pick up forgive her
She wasn't out to hurt you
Just wasn't meant to be this time round
Quit now or you'll drive herself crazy
Torture your poor heart over
The should've could've maybe's racing through your mind
Harsh words from one friend to another
They're just meant to keep you together
And keep your heart out of the lost and found
Well you got to give it time
And it's gonna get easier
When the truth, when it comes to you
Always making things clearer
Well you got to give it time
And it's gonna get easier
Oh like the truth, when it comes to you
Always making things clearer
Like the truth, when it comes to you
Always making things true
When it comes to you
Always making things true
When it comes to you
Always making things clearer
Always making things clearer

I shy from the loudest voice
The serpent I avoid
Choose to fight a battle rare
It doesn't mean that I am bad
It doesn't mean that I am scared
It's just not worth the breath
I speak my mind when I'm at home
Censor when I'm not alone
Choose who I am open to
It doesn't mean that I am closed
It doesn't mean I've given up on hope
It's just not worth the breath
I hear when I must defend
When you've got naught to prove
I'll wait and listen to your view
It doesn't mean we must agree
It doesn't mean that you know me
It's just where it begins
We live in a time of change
Breathe in what remains
Left from worlds before
It doesn't mean we should destroy
Carry on mistakes ignored
It's just all too short
I cry when I can't express
This feeling of torment
When I can't get through to you
I do because I care
I do out of despair
Wish you could understand
I'm low when I get it wrong
When dreams have been shot down
When I reveal things I don't want to see
It doesn't mean I'm in denial
It doesn't mean I want to hide
But there's too much to bare
