Ask Me To lyrics - Courtney Jaye
Here we are again
Sitting in the cool of the evening
The way you catch my eyes
Leaves me wondering what you want
If you wanna be loved
If you wanna be loved, loved, loved
If you wanna be loved, yeah, baby
Let me tell you now
You don't have to look very far to find it
I'm the one that's standing right beside you
Waiting for you, baby
You know that I would do
Anything you ask me to, yeah
You ask me to, yeah.
If you need a friend
Someone just to be there and listen
Anytime you want
Call me, baby, I'll be around.
But if you wanna be loved
If you wanna be loved, loved, loved
If you wanna be loved, yeah, baby
Let me tell you now.
You don't have to look very far to find it
I'm the one that's standing right beside you
Waiting for you, baby
You know that I would do
Anything you ask me to, yeah
You ask me to, yeah.
I can be on or maybe the other
Well, it's up to you
I got to tell you, I got to tell you
Only so you'll know
The plain and simple truth, come on.
Well if you wanna be loved
Cause if you wanna be loved, loved, loved
If you wanna be loved, yeah, baby
Let me tell you now.
You don't have to look very far to find it

Waiting for you, baby
You know that I would do
Anything you ask me to, yeah

One Way Conversation lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I said it all a hundred, I'll probably say it again
As long as it's a one way fight, you're guaranteed to win
I've been thinking all about it between my heart and my head
I finally figured out this mess, gonna put it to bed.
One way conversation, hear it all the time
One way conversation running through my mind.
You got your fists flying, love's a fox on the run
I am the jewelers' daughter, he could be a son of a gun
I've been down in the valley, a bird up in the sky
You've got your perspective, I got mine.
One way conversation, hear it all the time
One way conversation running through my mind
It's always one way information coming out wrong
It's just a one way conversation going on and on
Said it all a hundred, uh, but I'll say it again
Long as it's a one way fight, you're guaranteed to win
One way conversation, hear it all the time
One way conversation running through my mind
It's always one way information coming out wrong
It's just a one way conversation going on and on.
Going on and on
Going on and on
Going on and on
Going on and on.
As long as it's a one way fight, you're guaranteed to win
I've been thinking all about it between my heart and my head
I finally figured out this mess, gonna put it to bed.
One way conversation, hear it all the time
One way conversation running through my mind.
You got your fists flying, love's a fox on the run
I am the jewelers' daughter, he could be a son of a gun
I've been down in the valley, a bird up in the sky
You've got your perspective, I got mine.
One way conversation, hear it all the time
One way conversation running through my mind
It's always one way information coming out wrong
It's just a one way conversation going on and on
Said it all a hundred, uh, but I'll say it again
Long as it's a one way fight, you're guaranteed to win
One way conversation, hear it all the time
One way conversation running through my mind
It's always one way information coming out wrong
It's just a one way conversation going on and on.
Going on and on
Going on and on
Going on and on
Going on and on.
Morning lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I met you in the springtime
Honeysuckle on a new vine
My heart in pieces on the floor
I had my fell of good times
Of losing and of cheap cry
But you can like the others before.
You said, "Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning"
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
4:30 in the AM
You hear my voice shaking
I have to know if you're doing alright
'Cause baby, I had a bad dream
Made for a movie scene
I gotta hear your voice on the line.
You said, "Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning"
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
If I knew I had you forever and a moment
I'd find a way to steal some more time
Time, time
Life's gonna throw us some
Curves we won't be seeing
But either way, the sun's gone up bright
You said, "Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning"
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
Honeysuckle on a new vine
My heart in pieces on the floor
I had my fell of good times
Of losing and of cheap cry
But you can like the others before.
You said, "Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning"
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
4:30 in the AM
You hear my voice shaking
I have to know if you're doing alright
'Cause baby, I had a bad dream
Made for a movie scene
I gotta hear your voice on the line.
You said, "Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning"
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
If I knew I had you forever and a moment
I'd find a way to steal some more time
Time, time
Life's gonna throw us some
Curves we won't be seeing
But either way, the sun's gone up bright
You said, "Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning"
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
"Don't you cry, dry your eyes
I'll be there in the morning".
I Thought About It lyrics - Courtney Jaye
It took sometime
To see who you've really been
A perfect storm
I got caught up in your winds
Tossed me 'round
And glue me back again
Held me for so long
I woke today
The sun was breaking
And all your clouds are gone
[Chorus:]
I thought about it
What a game you played
Yes, I knew I had seen these wounds before
I thought about it
Guess I learned to leave
When it's love there ain't no keeping score
Now where you are
Don't really matter to me
Keep moving on
I've seen all I need to see
You sow those words
And all those promises
I thought that they were mine
Told myself that this was happening
So told myself a lie
[Chorus]
I thought about it... yeah...
I thought about it... yeah...
When somebody plays your heart
The way you have played with mine
Don't come calling for my sympathy
There's none here to find
[Chorus]
I thought about it... yeah...
I thought about it... yeah...
To see who you've really been
A perfect storm
I got caught up in your winds
Tossed me 'round
And glue me back again
Held me for so long
I woke today
The sun was breaking
And all your clouds are gone
[Chorus:]
I thought about it
What a game you played
Yes, I knew I had seen these wounds before
I thought about it
Guess I learned to leave
When it's love there ain't no keeping score
Now where you are
Don't really matter to me
Keep moving on
I've seen all I need to see
You sow those words
And all those promises
I thought that they were mine
Told myself that this was happening
So told myself a lie
[Chorus]
I thought about it... yeah...
I thought about it... yeah...
When somebody plays your heart
The way you have played with mine
Don't come calling for my sympathy
There's none here to find
[Chorus]
I thought about it... yeah...
I thought about it... yeah...
Stars And Skies lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I'm looking for someone
The kind you
Only hear about
When it comes undone
You have ways on me
Makes me think
of all the time
I've been wasting
[chorus:]
Fly me so high
Like in motion
Shine me so bright
Like stars and skies
And oh, it's bigger than you
Think you know
It's a midnight show
Like stars and skies
Try to make love our call
Stand up on a city hill
And watch
the whole thing fall
Are you where you wanna stand?
Tell me, ah...
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Tell me, ah...
[repeat chorus]
The kind you
Only hear about
When it comes undone
You have ways on me
Makes me think
of all the time
I've been wasting
[chorus:]
Fly me so high
Like in motion
Shine me so bright
Like stars and skies
And oh, it's bigger than you
Think you know
It's a midnight show
Like stars and skies
Try to make love our call
Stand up on a city hill
And watch
the whole thing fall
Are you where you wanna stand?
Tell me, ah...
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Tell me, ah...
[repeat chorus]
Don't Tell A Girl lyrics - Courtney Jaye
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us
Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Something in your eyes
Leaving me with questions
All the highs and whys
left with no direction
Placing the blame
Wiser always in the say
Do the compromise
Dance our little dance
Shake and toss the dice
Give this thing another chance
A hundred times before
I've said it and I'll say it again
and again
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us
Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Well there's a way out of here
We can go it alone
Sooner or later the past you're holding onto
Is gonna let you go
Oh, oh
Trying to believe you
With this reservation
Someday you'll break free of all your hesitations
A hundred times before
I've said it and I'll say it again
And again
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us
Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us
Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Something in your eyes
Leaving me with questions
All the highs and whys
left with no direction
Placing the blame
Wiser always in the say
Do the compromise
Dance our little dance
Shake and toss the dice
Give this thing another chance
A hundred times before
I've said it and I'll say it again
and again
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us
Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Well there's a way out of here
We can go it alone
Sooner or later the past you're holding onto

Oh, oh

Someday you'll break free of all your hesitations
A hundred times before
I've said it and I'll say it again

Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us
Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
Sweet Ride lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I wish you would stay a while
Blue eyes
How can I change your mind?
Daylight
Isn't the finish line
Isn't an exit sign
This could be a long road
I've been in this bed before
Waiting
Your already out the door
Save me
Why do you have to run?
Honey it's only love
It can be a sweet ride
It can be a long drop
It can take a wrong turn right to a dead end
It can make your heart stop
It can lead nowhere
You wont know unless you go there
It can be one more goodbye
Or it can be a sweet ride
It hasn't been paradise
Lately
Your looking at me like i'm
Crazy
There's nothing to lose at all
I already took the fall
It can be a sweet ride
It can be a long drop
It can take a wrong turn right to a dead end
It can make your heart stop
It can lead nowhere
You wont know unless you go there
It can be one more goodbye
Or it can be a sweet ride
I don't know the future holds
But I'm taking you with me
It can be a sweet ride
It can be a long drop
It can take a wrong turn right to a dead end
It can make your heart stop
It can lead nowhere
You wont know unless you go there
It can be one more goodbye
Or it can be a sweet ride
Blue eyes
How can I change your mind?
Daylight
Isn't the finish line
Isn't an exit sign
This could be a long road
I've been in this bed before
Waiting
Your already out the door
Save me
Why do you have to run?
Honey it's only love
It can be a sweet ride
It can be a long drop
It can take a wrong turn right to a dead end
It can make your heart stop
It can lead nowhere
You wont know unless you go there
It can be one more goodbye
Or it can be a sweet ride
It hasn't been paradise
Lately
Your looking at me like i'm
Crazy
There's nothing to lose at all
I already took the fall
It can be a sweet ride
It can be a long drop
It can take a wrong turn right to a dead end
It can make your heart stop
It can lead nowhere
You wont know unless you go there
It can be one more goodbye
Or it can be a sweet ride
I don't know the future holds
But I'm taking you with me
It can be a sweet ride
It can be a long drop
It can take a wrong turn right to a dead end
It can make your heart stop
It can lead nowhere
You wont know unless you go there
It can be one more goodbye
Or it can be a sweet ride
Tiger's Eye lyrics - Courtney Jaye
My how you have lost your cool
How did I become the fool?
Oh well your going down
Kicking dirt and wasting my time
Love like ours too close to call
Even diamonds have their flaws
Oh well, I'm going down
It's the end of suffering
You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
Just a semi precious jewel
Clouded judgement overruled
Oh well I'll never know
Why precious jewels I just can't find
You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
A million times passing by the right one
All polished up and clean
A million times but the damage is done
And now that it's time to leave
You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
And if I see you
You better cover your heart
If you get shut out
And left in the dark
You will be lonely
Lonely
How did I become the fool?
Oh well your going down
Kicking dirt and wasting my time
Love like ours too close to call
Even diamonds have their flaws
Oh well, I'm going down
It's the end of suffering
You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
Just a semi precious jewel
Clouded judgement overruled
Oh well I'll never know
Why precious jewels I just can't find
You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
A million times passing by the right one
All polished up and clean
A million times but the damage is done
And now that it's time to leave
You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
And if I see you
You better cover your heart
If you get shut out
And left in the dark
You will be lonely
Lonely
Box Wine lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I was told to shoot for the stars
But you don't have to go that far
Sometimes what you need is
Right there at your feet
He ain't no rolls royce no
Top shelf but he's my choice
Satisfied with the love I give
What a surefire way to live
VINTAGE
Box wine
Keep it flowing
Box wine
Love keeps going
From the bottle to the box
What I've got is what I've got
And what I've got will do just fine
Box wine
You'd never believe
It's a steal
Everybody loves a good deal
Four bottles for the price of one
I never dreamed life could be this fun
Settling ain't settling when you go there on
The bottom of the barrell ain't bad when you make it feel like home
Box wine
Keep it flowing
Box wine
Love keeps going
From the bottle to the box
What I've got is what I've got
And what I've got will do just fine
Box wine
But you don't have to go that far
Sometimes what you need is
Right there at your feet
He ain't no rolls royce no
Top shelf but he's my choice
Satisfied with the love I give
What a surefire way to live
VINTAGE
Box wine
Keep it flowing
Box wine
Love keeps going
From the bottle to the box
What I've got is what I've got
And what I've got will do just fine
Box wine
You'd never believe
It's a steal
Everybody loves a good deal
Four bottles for the price of one
I never dreamed life could be this fun
Settling ain't settling when you go there on
The bottom of the barrell ain't bad when you make it feel like home
Box wine
Keep it flowing
Box wine
Love keeps going
From the bottle to the box
What I've got is what I've got
And what I've got will do just fine

Queen Of Sabotage lyrics - Courtney Jaye
"Yo soy la reina de la sabotage
Yo nunca debería ter permitido
Que tu te fueras"
Your a king to everyone
I never knew where I belonged
Tell me why
Sometimes it rains
When sunshine falls upon my face
If you could just see me
I know you would change your mind
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you go
Ever since the day I left
It's been all regrets
I been trying to somehow stop
Breaking hearts that I should love
But I'm the queen of sabotage
Of sabotage
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you go
Ever since the day you left
It's been all regrets
Yo nunca debería ter permitido
Que tu te fueras"
Your a king to everyone
I never knew where I belonged
Tell me why
Sometimes it rains
When sunshine falls upon my face
If you could just see me
I know you would change your mind
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you go
Ever since the day I left
It's been all regrets
I been trying to somehow stop
Breaking hearts that I should love
But I'm the queen of sabotage
Of sabotage
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you go
Ever since the day you left
It's been all regrets
It's The Checks You Write lyrics - Courtney Jaye
Taking ideas from notes you've read
Of where I wanna go
You told me once there was nothing better
Than the view from Cupid's bow
Knowing that he's aiming at the heart you've been claiming
You held me captive and dreamed of being captivated
It's the check's you write
That I know I can't cash
It's my favorite kiss
I ain't ever getting back
It's the longest night
That I'm gonna live through
And time's on my side
And we'll forget about you
We'll forget about you
Told me once there was a great payoff in taking something slow
I met you halfway between our hearts and you never even showed
Oh, I been waiting all this time
I've been a'waiting
And nothing's changing
All this time
I've been a'waiting
It's the check's you write
That I know I can't cash
It's my favorite kiss
I ain't ever getting back
It's the longest night
That I'm gonna live through
And time's on my side
And we'll forget about you
We'll forget about you
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ah oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ah oh oh oh
Oh, standing next to her
Someone I used to know
I hung out my hand
I opened up my heart
All the words you said
Are ringing in my head
Cuz they're the check's you write
That I know I can't cash
It's the favorite kiss
I ain't ever getting back
It's the longest night
That I'm gonna live through
And time's on my side
Time's on my side
Time's on my side
We'll forget about you
We'll forget about you
Of where I wanna go
You told me once there was nothing better
Than the view from Cupid's bow
Knowing that he's aiming at the heart you've been claiming
You held me captive and dreamed of being captivated
It's the check's you write
That I know I can't cash
It's my favorite kiss
I ain't ever getting back
It's the longest night
That I'm gonna live through
And time's on my side
And we'll forget about you
We'll forget about you
Told me once there was a great payoff in taking something slow
I met you halfway between our hearts and you never even showed
Oh, I been waiting all this time

Lose My Head lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I know that I'm no angel
I've seen myself from every angle
Now I'm right outside your door
Some positive rejection
Foreshadowing frustration
Feels like I've been here before
But I'm saving it all for the morning after
Cause I don't need my conscience when I lose my head
Got all of my excuses lying in your bed
It's like tasting lightning striking and I need you to find me
Baby when I lose my head
The view from this position
Is of my inhibitions
Torn apart and scattered on the floor
Now am I taking myself too seriously
Don't I know by now that eventually
All that it takes is to love my mistakes
So I'm saving it all for the morning after
[Chorus]
There's gotta be a million things that could be said
But I don't go for talking when I lose my head
Like the pouring rain
I can't explain
I go insane
Baby when I lose my head
Baby when I lose my head
Saving it up for the morning after
Not going to slow down
I'm moving faster
I'm saving it all for the morning after
[Chorus]
[Second chorus]
I've seen myself from every angle
Now I'm right outside your door
Some positive rejection
Foreshadowing frustration
Feels like I've been here before
But I'm saving it all for the morning after
Cause I don't need my conscience when I lose my head
Got all of my excuses lying in your bed
It's like tasting lightning striking and I need you to find me
Baby when I lose my head
The view from this position
Is of my inhibitions
Torn apart and scattered on the floor
Now am I taking myself too seriously
Don't I know by now that eventually
All that it takes is to love my mistakes
So I'm saving it all for the morning after
[Chorus]
There's gotta be a million things that could be said
But I don't go for talking when I lose my head
Like the pouring rain
I can't explain
I go insane
Baby when I lose my head
Baby when I lose my head
Saving it up for the morning after
Not going to slow down
I'm moving faster
I'm saving it all for the morning after
[Chorus]
[Second chorus]
Can't Behave lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I got eyes in the back of my head
Your halo's turnin' red
Foolin' around knockin' me off my cloud
They're talking about your mischievous ways
Boy it's painted all over your face
Stealin' a kiss mysterious whispers
A thorn in my pride
I'm still by your side but
One day I'm walking away
The tide is gonna turn I'm gonna find my place
Give me a reason to stay
I want to be your lover
Baby but you can't behave
Remember the days and the Hollywood nights
What happened to paradise
Stolen away and I can't replace it now
'cause rumors are flying
That I can't avoid
Are they true or am I paranoid
Livin' like this it's drivin' me crazy
So make up your mind
You're running out of time
[Chorus]
Ease all of my worries
Please don't make me play the fool
Baby won't you hurry
You don't know what you're gonna lose
[Chorus]
Your halo's turnin' red
Foolin' around knockin' me off my cloud
They're talking about your mischievous ways
Boy it's painted all over your face
Stealin' a kiss mysterious whispers
A thorn in my pride
I'm still by your side but
One day I'm walking away
The tide is gonna turn I'm gonna find my place
Give me a reason to stay
I want to be your lover
Baby but you can't behave
Remember the days and the Hollywood nights
What happened to paradise
Stolen away and I can't replace it now
'cause rumors are flying
That I can't avoid
Are they true or am I paranoid
Livin' like this it's drivin' me crazy
So make up your mind
You're running out of time
[Chorus]
Ease all of my worries
Please don't make me play the fool
Baby won't you hurry
You don't know what you're gonna lose
[Chorus]
Permanent lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I complicate whichever way I try to go
I get in the way
I question to the point I'd never know
If I was in love
I talk about it but I'm not complaining
The clouds look like rain
But it's not raining
Darling I want you to see it's permanent
Changes are waking in me it's different
I will not self destruct
And I do not need to destroy us
In my head I've gone back and forth
'Til I was out of breath
My old ways were temporary
Like the twilight as it fades
I talk about it but I'm not complaining
So much to explain
But I'm not explaining
[Chorus]
I get in the way
I question to the point I'd never know
If I was in love
I talk about it but I'm not complaining
The clouds look like rain
But it's not raining
Darling I want you to see it's permanent
Changes are waking in me it's different
I will not self destruct
And I do not need to destroy us
In my head I've gone back and forth
'Til I was out of breath
My old ways were temporary
Like the twilight as it fades
I talk about it but I'm not complaining
So much to explain
But I'm not explaining
[Chorus]
Mental lyrics - Courtney Jaye
On this lonely stretch of solitude
I'm thinking 'bout the things that I never do
All the promises that I made to you
Well they're just words
They're only words
It took so long for me to recognize
All this confidence that I couldn't find
I used to dim my light so you could shine
And that's what hurts
It really hurts
I wanna do everything right
But everything's going wrong
I want to feel heaven on earth
But nothing ever lasts that long
Baby I'm goin' mental
So much potential
I can't stand to watch it withering away
It's out of control now
It's getting old now
And I can't afford to waste another day
Well dust keeps piling up on the window sill
Man if you don't know by now I guess you never will
But there's no benefit in standing still
Not for you no no
And not for me
But I wanna make everything work
Something's just gotta give
I gotta start putting me first
It's killing me the way it is
[Chorus]
I wanna do everything right
But everything's going wrong
I wanna feel heaven on earth
And nothing ever lasts that long
[Chorus]
I'm thinking 'bout the things that I never do
All the promises that I made to you
Well they're just words
They're only words
It took so long for me to recognize
All this confidence that I couldn't find
I used to dim my light so you could shine
And that's what hurts
It really hurts
I wanna do everything right
But everything's going wrong
I want to feel heaven on earth
But nothing ever lasts that long
Baby I'm goin' mental
So much potential
I can't stand to watch it withering away
It's out of control now
It's getting old now
And I can't afford to waste another day
Well dust keeps piling up on the window sill
Man if you don't know by now I guess you never will
But there's no benefit in standing still
Not for you no no
And not for me
But I wanna make everything work
Something's just gotta give
I gotta start putting me first
It's killing me the way it is
[Chorus]
I wanna do everything right
But everything's going wrong
I wanna feel heaven on earth
And nothing ever lasts that long
[Chorus]
Time For Goodbye lyrics - Courtney Jaye
Feels like I'm falling out of love
Heaven help me
Voices of angels high above
Criticize me
Just when I find out who you are
I regret letting down my guard
Give me the word
Give the sign
If I should move on
Is this a good time
Time for goodbye
I can be so full of myself
That I'm empty
Such a believer of the truth
You resent me
Just when I find out where you've been
I regret ever giving in
[Chorus]
Stains on the carpet
The holes in the wall
We're tearing it down til there's nothing at all
You ask me to stay
But you waited too long
Cause I'm already gone
Now this is the word
This is the sign
Yeah I should move on
Now is a good time
Time for goodbye
Heaven help me
Voices of angels high above
Criticize me
Just when I find out who you are
I regret letting down my guard
Give me the word
Give the sign
If I should move on
Is this a good time
Time for goodbye
I can be so full of myself
That I'm empty
Such a believer of the truth
You resent me
Just when I find out where you've been
I regret ever giving in
[Chorus]
Stains on the carpet
The holes in the wall
We're tearing it down til there's nothing at all
You ask me to stay
But you waited too long
Cause I'm already gone
Now this is the word
This is the sign
Yeah I should move on
Now is a good time
Time for goodbye
Somersault lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I let another record play
I want the feeling
Its still the only time of day
I can believe in
I watch it spin around again
To start me dreaming
I wasn't lost
Wasn't found
Wasn't anywhere at all
Wasn't up
Wasn't down
Til you showed me
In a somersault
You never know where you are
Its easy to get lost
Easy to think nobody's breaking your fall
Now the summer's gone
And until your return
In a somersault
Thinking of you
I'll turn
Its hard to keep you at bay
So I keep busy here
Just filling seconds of the day
Until you are near
I wasn't in
Wasn't out
Wasn't anything at all
Wasn't up
Wasn't down
Til you showed me
[Chorus]
I wasn't lost
Wasn't found
Wasn't anywhere at all
Wasn't up
Wasn't down
Til you showed me
[Chorus]
I want the feeling
Its still the only time of day
I can believe in
I watch it spin around again
To start me dreaming
I wasn't lost
Wasn't found
Wasn't anywhere at all
Wasn't up
Wasn't down
Til you showed me
In a somersault
You never know where you are
Its easy to get lost
Easy to think nobody's breaking your fall
Now the summer's gone
And until your return
In a somersault
Thinking of you
I'll turn
Its hard to keep you at bay
So I keep busy here
Just filling seconds of the day
Until you are near
I wasn't in
Wasn't out
Wasn't anything at all
Wasn't up
Wasn't down
Til you showed me
[Chorus]
I wasn't lost
Wasn't found
Wasn't anywhere at all
Wasn't up
Wasn't down
Til you showed me
[Chorus]
Traveling Light lyrics - Courtney Jaye
Three years or a lifetime
Three words that just might have come too soon
Three hours from somewhere
I might have ended up with you
Hold me like a river
Hold me like a string tied to a balloon
You get what you're given
At any moment a moment of truth
All my life I'm traveling light
Been living in a sky
I'll float I'll fade I'll carry away
Til you pull me down and think of me sometimes
I'm sorry for leaving
I'm sorry for all I could not do
You knew it was coming
Maybe in some ways I did too
The keys by the bedside
And bags in the hall
[Chorus]
I'm searching for something in the ether of this mess
Riding above these missing pieces, leaves me weightless
[Chorus]
Three words that just might have come too soon
Three hours from somewhere
I might have ended up with you
Hold me like a river
Hold me like a string tied to a balloon
You get what you're given
At any moment a moment of truth
All my life I'm traveling light
Been living in a sky
I'll float I'll fade I'll carry away
Til you pull me down and think of me sometimes
I'm sorry for leaving
I'm sorry for all I could not do
You knew it was coming
Maybe in some ways I did too
The keys by the bedside
And bags in the hall
[Chorus]
I'm searching for something in the ether of this mess
Riding above these missing pieces, leaves me weightless
[Chorus]
Hanalei Road lyrics - Courtney Jaye
I'm dreaming hard of leaving
Can't shake the weary cold
My good intentions frozen
Buried under snow
This peace I'm holdin onto
The sunlight wearing thin
It radiates from west of somewhere else I live
Give me the fastest plane
I'm ready to go one way
Meet me down on hanalei road
I'm diving deep for the diamond tide
Save my heart and feed my soul
I'm coming home tonight
Coming home tonight
Follow the trade winds over
Footprints along the beach
Leading to where I know
There's someone missing me
Under a thousand stars
And the liliquoi moon
[Chorus]
Give me the fastest plane
I'm ready to go today
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Can't shake the weary cold
My good intentions frozen
Buried under snow
This peace I'm holdin onto
The sunlight wearing thin
It radiates from west of somewhere else I live
Give me the fastest plane
I'm ready to go one way
Meet me down on hanalei road
I'm diving deep for the diamond tide
Save my heart and feed my soul
I'm coming home tonight
Coming home tonight
Follow the trade winds over
Footprints along the beach
Leading to where I know
There's someone missing me
Under a thousand stars
And the liliquoi moon
[Chorus]
Give me the fastest plane
I'm ready to go today
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Can You Sleep lyrics - Courtney Jaye
Was it that hard
To give me away
Are you that easily persuaded
By a memory that's faded
Like a card
Left out in the rain
And tears will fall like ink right off the page
Tell me can you sleep at night
Knowing I'm awake
When you turn out the light
Did you think that I was gonna be alright
Kicked out of your life
Now tell me can you sleep at night
Do you think of me
When you're with her
Is she filling all the blanks in
Til the temporary space is empty again
Just like you are
And now you'll have to smile and just pretend
So tell me can you sleep at night
Knowing I'm awake
When you turn out the light
Did you think that I was gona be alright
Pushed out of your life
And tell me can you sleep
But all this time we've wasted
You were all I thought about
And this bitter pill I'm tasting
Well its time to spit it out
Oh no, no, no
[Chorus]
To give me away
Are you that easily persuaded
By a memory that's faded
Like a card
Left out in the rain
And tears will fall like ink right off the page
Tell me can you sleep at night
Knowing I'm awake
When you turn out the light
Did you think that I was gonna be alright
Kicked out of your life
Now tell me can you sleep at night
Do you think of me
When you're with her
Is she filling all the blanks in
Til the temporary space is empty again
Just like you are
And now you'll have to smile and just pretend
So tell me can you sleep at night
Knowing I'm awake
When you turn out the light
Did you think that I was gona be alright
Pushed out of your life
And tell me can you sleep
But all this time we've wasted
You were all I thought about
And this bitter pill I'm tasting
Well its time to spit it out
Oh no, no, no
[Chorus]
Love Song (For Everyone) lyrics - Courtney Jaye
It overtakes me
It levitates me
And lifts me up so high
It makes me wonder
It pulls me under
And gives me butterflies
Now I'm surrounded
Now I'm awake
I can be sure
I'm in love... with everyone
I'm in love... with everyone
Sorrow shook me
Love overlooked me
For the longest time
But the fog is lifted
The clouds have drifted
My heart is open wide
I don't know your story
I don't know your name
But I know I'm sure
[Chorus]
I wish that I could
Tell you I would
Slow down and commit
But the world is so big
And full of life you can't hold in
And I have so much to give
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Every strong and steady man
Open heart and open hands
One I think about each time
It makes me close my eyes and smile
Like a best friend or savior
One who is on his best behavior
Firecracker troublemaker
You know who you are
Every rider on the waves
Every rockstar I have saved
Every boy who loves his girl
Every person in the world
It levitates me
And lifts me up so high
It makes me wonder
It pulls me under
And gives me butterflies
Now I'm surrounded
Now I'm awake
I can be sure
I'm in love... with everyone
I'm in love... with everyone
Sorrow shook me
Love overlooked me
For the longest time
But the fog is lifted
The clouds have drifted
My heart is open wide
I don't know your story
I don't know your name
But I know I'm sure
[Chorus]
I wish that I could
Tell you I would
Slow down and commit
But the world is so big
And full of life you can't hold in
And I have so much to give
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Every strong and steady man
Open heart and open hands
One I think about each time
It makes me close my eyes and smile
Like a best friend or savior
One who is on his best behavior
Firecracker troublemaker
You know who you are
Every rider on the waves
Every rockstar I have saved
Every boy who loves his girl
Every person in the world
