(Meredith Brooks, David Darling, Shelly Peiken)

Lucky that you found me
You gotta hang around me some more
Cause I'll remind you
I'll be around
While you're waging your war
With yourself
And I
See it clearer than you see it
You gotta get out of your head to believe it
Oh I know something about you
You don't know I know

Chorus
That's where you shine
When you're sinking you swim
When you see your way out instead of in
That's where you shine
Like a diamond in the rough
You';re always so resilient
That's where you shine
When you're walking the edge
No one's ever gonna catch you stumbling
That's where you shine

Remember when you told me
To get up and dust yourself off
It wasn't easy
Everything can change
And it usually does
It does
You said
Shake it off like it ain't no big thing
Won't be the last time we're sinking
Oh, I know some things about you
You don't know

Chorus
That's where you shine
When you think you've had enough
Just a matter of time before you fade
That's where you shine
Like a clear in the brush
Like a headlight breaking through the haze
That's where you shine
When there's nothing but no
And there's nowhere to go
You find a way
That's where you shine

Sometimes you need someone to see yourself clearer
There's no reflection when it's you inside the mirror
I know something about you don't know

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

I'm gonna spin some lies of my own
'cause your truth has got me reelin'
You always think of things that go wrong
But it's only faith you're stealin
I tried to slip out the back
But you showed up to give me one more chance

Chorus
You're the star of your show
And all you touch turns to gold
I hear you say
It's my lucky day
No one's taking your place
You tell me right to my face
Yeah you say
It's my lucky day

I want to waste some time on my own
'cause I feel I'm suffocating
I'm getting lost on 2nd and Vine
Yea I feel I've finally made it
I hear the screaming on the street
And you got everyone listening

Chorus

Sometimes you just got to let luck run out
And live with out the plan
We all know the world is gonna win in the end

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

Today I write in my book
Dear God I need a change
I can't keep hiding
Wishing the mirror was lying

Show me where do I look
I know there must be a plan
Though I can't see one
I go through the motions anyway

Here I go again
Walking down a road I've never known

Chorus
I want to go where lovers meet
I want to breathe the air they breathe
I want to touch the dreams they dream
When I find someone to love
I want to go where lovers
Where lovers meet

I know my faith is blind
I'll take my chances
I'm tired of just surviving
I 'm not wasting any time

Just like tears in the rain
No one can see
Inside my heart is crying
Telling me I can't lie any more

Here I go again
Walking down a road I've never known

Chorus
I want to go where lovers meet
I want to breathe the air they breathe
I want to touch the dreams they dream
When I find someone to love
I want to go where lovers meet
Feel the wind beneath my feet
Oh, I want to feel that complete
When I find someone

I spent half my life
Wasting my time
I don't want to hear my heart beating alone
Oh

Chorus

I want to go
I want to go where lovers meet

. . .


(Meredith Brooks, Paul Trudeau)

I wouldn't blame you if you
threw away the key
I can't expect you to keep the
door unlocked for me
I'm happy that you waited
'cause I know it's complicated
keeping up with me

Oh no-it's almost that time again
For me to go round and round
in my head today
I get so bored when I stay
Oh it could have been a good thing

Chorus
I-I'm the bad bad one
I know how hard you try for me
But I'm immature I run away for fun
I guess I'm not ready for a good love
and I'I'm the bad bad one
I'm the bad bad one

I wouldn't blame you if you tried to hang me
I keep you running around the same old tree
I wouldn't be the same if I didn't get away
with acting out for free oh no
you seem to like it better when I'm mean

and here comes the fight again
about our cloudy fate
well it looks like rain
I know it should have been a good thing

Chorus

I know you could be the one
I I could let you give me good love

Chorus

I'm just not read-
I'm just not ready for a good love

. . .


(Meredith Brooks, Paul Trudeau, Goldo)

I was wrong this was my mistake
I resolve to save what's mine again
I've always wanted to believe in things
And I pity you for taking that from me

You tried to erase the guilt that's on your face
But you're just hiding out behind your cool
Like a hurricane you changed
And because you took the blame
You thought that would be enough
And then I'd be on my way

Chorus
Did you think that I would let you forget me?
Did you think that I would just lie on the floor?
As you walked into you future did you think I
would give you control?
Well, you don't know me
Did you think that I would simply forgive you?
Maybe you think I'd just lay down and die
As you walked away, didn't you think I'd survive?
Well, you don't know me

My world changed like a thought replaced
I was faithful to the promises you made
When you say my name
Will it sound the same
As when you used to talk to me so cool ?
You want me to pretend
So you'll have your happy end
To wash away your guilt
And make it easier for you - oh

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

I stayed up all night
Thinking about this life
I've been working so hard baby
now it's time to fly
and you're my pleasure baby

I hit the ground each day
no time to stop and stare
but when I see you all my
worries seem to disappear
I love the way you do it
you're my pleasure baby

Chorus
OO ya-ya
You're my pleasure baby
OO ya-ya
I love the way you do what you do
To make me feel so fine

I like it when we play
The pressure melts away
I have been with out relief for 110 days
Tomorrow's too late
You're my pleasure baby

Chorus

Now this ain't livin' if it's just for the gettin'
It means nothin'
But nothin' is something if it's anything with you
And you're my pleasure baby

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks, Taylor Rhodes, Dave Berg)

Holding us together
Then we're tearing us apart
It's tragic then it's beautiful
We shine and then it's dark
Feeling like a little kid
Because I can't let go

Chorus
Every time I think about
The things that I can't live without
Well I must love the pain
Misunderstood and complicated
Happiness is overrated
I must love the pain

Everytime you draw me in
I take a step away
Maybe I'm just restless
'Cause I want
What I can't take

It's a shame that nothing else on earth
Can make me feel this way

Chorus

Feelin' like a little kid because I can't let go

Chorus

Well, I must love the pain
I do love the pain

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

Got a lot to say but I couldn't get it in
And we couldn't get along so it got in the way
I'll give you the spin and you couldn't even talk
But you never give in
Yeah I can fight with the best of them
And we've gone a few rounds and I shed a new light
And I counted to ten but it didn't seem to matter
You just wanted to win

I won't let you drag me in
I know you enjoy the pain
Oh you won't feel anything
Well I don't play that way

Chorus
It's a sure bet
The last thing you're ever gonna to hear from me
Are my footsteps
As I walk away (I walk away)
You've tried everything
To keep me coming back
Oh but I'm spent
As I walk away
One thing's for sure last thing you're
Ever gonna hear from me
Are my footsteps as I walk away

You love to fight and I couldn't get through
And your blood is running hot makes you feel alive
In everything you do and you want it that way
I can't abide by you
Look at the time I guess it went to waste
But I'm good to go I gotta toe the line
I'll make mistakes but I still got a chance
I'm gonna take

Everything you said
Is like a kick in the head
Don't count me out just yet
Place your money here instead

Chorus

Can't even tell me that you want me
But this time it's just all right
Something that you'll face in the morning
But baby if you want when I close this door
I'll leave on the light

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

You're everywhere I walk
I don't remember if I smiled
I don't think we talked
But you always hung around a while
And I don't know your name
Yeah I think that you were tall
I don't remember if I was ever nice to you at all

Chorus
Suddenly you come undone
You tell me I'm the only one
You hold my head up with a gun
And tell me that we are in love
You touch me and you want the same
I close my eyes and start to pray
And tell you I will be the way
You want if you will only say your name

You wrote me everyday
I never knew that it was you
I just threw it all away
I didn't know what else to do
Jesus told you to find me
And never ever let me go
And we would be so happy
He promised you that I would know

Chorus

I am sorry - so sorry oh
I am sorry Jesus forgot to tell me

I see that you are crying
I know you only meant to be with me
Maybe I was hasty
I should have listened more carefully
Please tell me it's not too late
Your decision has been made
Before you pull the trigger
Please won't you tell me your name?

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

I love the sound of summer disco in the air.
I throw my hands up like I just don't care.
It makes no difference where it's comin' from.
I'm on my way the party's just begun.

Chorus
Let me hear ya say I-I-I
no-no-no-no-no I'm not getting high.
I-I-I No matter what you do
I'm not getting high.

Sister freaky in a cloud of purple haze
She's groovin'; slowly through the Milky way.
The fish are jumpin' Everybody's free.
This kind of movie you will never ever see.

Chorus

Don't pass it my way.
I'm already high yea I'm fly.
What you say or do
Leave it up to you
This kind of something you will never see.
Baby if you want it come and get it
'Cause it's something that you can't deny.

Chorus

. . .


(Meredith Brooks)

I search through my mind
And it's hard trying to find
Words that we haven't said
To tame the thoughts in your head
I can only promise you
That I will see this through

Chorus

You can count on me, you can cry with me
No one can divide me, you can depend on me
To see this through, I will cover you
I won't lie to you, I will choose to
Stand by you
I will stand by you
Stand by you
By you

When you're feeling weak and
You're close to defeat
You can look in my eyes
To find love, not my pride
You know that it's true
I'll be waiting here for you

Chorus

Fear can tear the road from underneath you
Nothing's worth my pride and nothing's worth the
Feeling in my life without you

Chorus
