Lost At Sea 05:11
Turn the other way look around Something big’s about to happen I swear to God that I’ve been here before And you were here I guess it’s nothing Lost at sea Guess I do know the truth afterall Stay the current course No matter what don’t change for anyone Say you’ll save a corner of your mind Cause I think about you all the time Lost at sea Guess I do know the truth afterall And nothing you can do to turn it back around Is gonna make a difference it’s done it’s happened now So take me where you go Watercolour eyes And we can start again You'll never know if you never try

Heard you in the distance A storm on the scope Almighty thunder Coming for me I hoped Rolled over the horizon Swept up it all Batten the hatches And teardrops and branches But I hear the silence now Right to my core I never heard silence Like this before But I hear the silence now From wall to wall I never heard silence Like this before Very tall buildings Lights at high speed Trails on the taxis Heading all around me Up on the rooftop Wasteland of a view The pierce of the sirens Can you hear them too? Or is it just silence now Cause I tell you what It feels like this silence Is all that I’ve got Yeah I won the battle But I lost the war I never heard silence Like this before The plane flies so high Can't be seen or heard Looking down on the hills Looking down on all the birds But I hear the silence now Right in my core I never heard silence Like this before Yeah I hear the silence now From wall to wall I never heard silence Like this before credits

So tell me the reason that We found ourselves in this hopeless place together And tell me the reason that The sun and moon are the same size in the sky Fade in the morning shade from the sun Maybe one day yeah I’m holding on Can you feel it, can you feel it Can you see that We belong together, we belong together Know you feel it ,know you feel it Can you see that We belong together, we belong together And right when I realised That maybe I’ve been thinking bout forever I saw something in your eyes Reflecting back off of a speed limit sign Fade in the morning shade from the sun Maybe one day yeah I’m holding on Can you feel it, can you feel it Can you see that We belong together, we belong together Know you feel it ,know you feel it Can you see that We belong together, we belong together I can see it very clear sometimes But it’s gone in the blink of an eye And half awake I can hallucinate it right But it’s all white noise in the low light Can you feel it, can you feel it Can you see that We belong together, we belong together Know you feel it ,know you feel it Can you see that We belong together, we belong together credits

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me, tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't

I keep a light in the window Making sure that it’s on So you know that I’m still here So you know You only did what had to I don’t blame you for nothin I still feel like shit without you So you know You’re tellin me that you met somebody Say it’s easier than it’s ever been I’m telling you I’m happy youre happy Cant you tell that I don’t mean it Cause it’s hard to hear that you found somebody When i’ve holding on to get you back again I’m telling you I’m happy you’re happy Can’t you tell that I don’t mean it Now I sleep in the day cause At night it don’t seem to come And time it dont seem to matter Anymore I chase the worst of the memories Trying to piece it together Till I just I can’t take it Anymore You’re tellin me that you met somebody You say it’s easier than it’s ever been I’m telling you I’m happy you’re happy Can’t you tell that I don’t mean it Cause it’s hard to hear that you found somebody When i’ve holding on to get you back again I’m telling you I’m happy you’re happy Can’t you tell that I don’t mean it Happy you’re happy... You’re tellin me that you met somebody You say it’s easier than it’s ever been I’m telling you I’m happy you’re happy Can’t you tell that I don’t mean it Cause it’s hard to hear that you found somebody When i’ve holding on to get you back again I’m telling you I’m happy you’re happy Can’t you tell that I don’t mean it

A tornado flew around my room before you came Excuse the mess it made, it usually doesn't rain in Southern California, much like Arizona My eyes don't shed tears, but, boy, they bawl When I'm thinkin' 'bout you (Ooh, no, no, no) I've been thinkin' 'bout you (You know, know, know) I've been thinkin' 'bout you Do you think about me still? Do ya, do ya? Or do you not think so far ahead? (Ahead) 'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever (Ooh, ooh) Or do you not think so far ahead? (Ahead) 'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever (ooh, ooh) No, I don't like you, I just thought you were cool enough to kick it Got a beach house I could sell you in Idaho Since you think I don't love you, I just thought you were cute That's why I kiss you Got a fighter jet, I don't get fly it, though I'm lyin' down thinkin' 'bout you (Ooh, no, no, no) I've been thinkin' 'bout you (You know, know, know) I've been thinkin' 'bout you Do you think about me still? Do ya, do ya? Or do you not think so far ahead? (Ahead) 'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever (Ooh, ooh) Or do you not think so far ahead? (Ahead) 'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever (Ooh, ooh) Yes, of course I remember, how could I forget? How you feel? And though you were my first time A new feel It won't ever get old, not in my soul Not in my spirit, keep it alive We'll go down this road 'Til it turns from color to black and white Or do you not think so far ahead? (Ahead) 'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever (ooh, ooh) Or do you not think so far ahead? (Ahead) 'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever (ooh, ooh)

And I love you and you’ve gotta take the blame And I love it when you call my name Love the things that you don’t like about yourself Cause if they weren’t true then you’d be someone else And I love travelling with you by my side Or doing nothing staying home on Friday nights And I love the way you never suffer fools Even sometimes when I am one of them to On a scale of one to ten love 1s I don’t know and 10‘s sosure If you said that you loved me a million Then I’d still love you more I love the way you get me everytime I love it when you put your hand in mine I even love the way my words just disappear When they are not the ones you want to hear On a scale of one to ten love 1s I don’t know and 10 is sure If you said that you loved me a million Then I’d still love you more Yeah you know I’d love you more And I loved you for a while yeah I rehearsed But I love that I still said it first And I love the way you said it back Don’t wanna think about how you could’ve not done that On a scale of one to ten love 1s I don’t know and 10 is sure If you said that you loved me a million Then I’d still love you more Yeah you know I’d love you more Yeah I’m bit and there’s no cure

Worse (Live) 03:15
And I tried everyday to be the best I can Until the day you came along And then I spent some time worrying who I am And if I could be good enough You left you said it’s no ones fault That I am just too good for you So now I’m trying to get worse I’m just trying to get worse I know that what you said don’t make no sense at all I Think I said it once myself before But somehow I can’t stop I wanna spiral Until we’re on the same level You left you said it’s no ones fault That I am just too good for you So now I’m trying to get worse I’m just trying to get worse And I can’t help but daydream turning you away When you really need me But I know that all the good hearted part of me Would say please stay So I’m trying to get worse I’m trying to get worse I’m trying to get worse I’m just trying to get worse

Come around you said I’ll be waiting there Saw the moon rise right as the last train left Left the lights on stones thrown at window panes And you said my name And I knew that I’d find you at the shore But the tide don’t care what you’re waiting for As my signal fire drowned beneath the waves Did I hear you say My name I guess I knew it from the start A one way broken heart But who’s to say If things had gone our way Come along you don’t need to be alone Call me when you can so I know you’re home Tell me all I learned and I’ll try to forget And just say just say My name Somethings are unavoidable And the rest, I don’t know But who’s to say If things had gone our way
10.
Long ago I knew a boy Who’s heart was on his sleeve He trusted almost anyone And loved so fearlessly But he knows better than that now He locked his heart away With all the other foolish things And there it’s gonna stay Cause I don’t need anyone And I don’t need nothing Cause I’ve learned that every love Is a ticket to lose And I owe it all to you Nothing ventured nothing gained I’ll take that one as verse Better loved and lost they said But it’s definitely worse So I don’t need anyone And I don’t need nothing Cause I’ve learned that every love Is a ticket to lose And I owe it all to you

Turn the other way look around Something big’s about to happen I swear to God that I’ve been here before And you were here I guess it’s nothing Lost at sea Guess I do know the truth afterall Stay the current course No matter what don’t change for anyone Say you’ll save a corner of your mind Cause I think about you all the time Lost at sea Guess I do know the truth afterall And nothing you can do to turn it back around Is gonna make a difference it’s done it’s happened now So take me where you go Watercolour eyes And we can start again You'll never know if you never try

Hey there Mr. Tin Man You don't know how lucky you are You shouldn't spend your whole life wishin' For something bound to fall apart Every time you're feeling empty Better thank your lucky stars If you ever felt one breaking You'd never want a heart Hey there Mr. Tin Man You don't know how lucky you are I've been on the road that you're on It didn't get me very far You ain't missing nothing 'Cause love is so damn hard Take it from me brother You don't want a heart Hey there Mr. Tin Man I'm glad we talked this out You can take mine if you want it It's in pieces now By the way there Mr. Tin Man If you don't mind the scars You give me your armor And you can have my heart
14.
In the lowlights in the clouds The desert as the sun goes down In the secrets never said and the Ripples on the water’s edge I’ll meet you there In the ones that I told you before And clean slates that I never saw The paths so obvious to take And the ones that just call for blind faith I’ll meet you there Encores and curtain calls And nothing at all Yeah through it all In ordinary nothing thoughts Second moments long forgot In the nights we didn’t want to end, Turn down time you said I’ll meet you there
15.
Take a bow You were amazing I wish that you could hear me now I hope to God I’ll see you someday But I will say goodbye for now And I don’t know if I can believe it That there’s a place where we start anew But if when I go There’s a place to find you Then that’s the first thing I’m gonna do Take a bow You were amazing I hope you’re up there looking down I hope to God I’ll see you someday But I will say goodbye for now I hope that you knew How much I loved you Cause it’s so much more than words can say And if when I go Heaven is real I know you'll be there waiting at the gate Take a bow You were amazing I hope that I am wrong somehow Yeah I pray to God I’ll see you someday But I will say goodbye for now credits

Seeing rivers flowing seeing sunrise Colours shifting at the speed of light I can see you through it all And even though this isn’t all that there is I got you and all of our beginnings And right there my fear is upped and gone I said that we’re forever Forever’s what I mean Cause there ain’t nowhere else that I’d rather be As long as we keep making mistakes and wasting time I think you might be my crystal ball cause Whenever you’re around I can see it all Laying out there clear as day And when the summer's over You know where I will be Cause no matter where I go my heart is here Just tell me we’ll keep making mistakes and wasting time And I hope Hope we don’t ever learn And I hope We’ll go where the wind blows I said that we’re forever Forever’s what I mean Cause there ain’t nowhere else that rather be As long as we keep making mistakes and wasting time As long as we keep making mistakes and wasting time

Looking out over the river In grainy black and white It looks the same every second It’s different all the time I don't hear a word you're saying But I know what you mean Secrets for safekeeping always Washing out to see Everything Is so hard faught I can’t believe this thing I got It's so damn easy to love you It's just so easy to do Not sure I could stop now If I wanted to It's so damn easy to love you It's just so easy to do Not sure I could stop now If I wanted If I wanted If I needed to All the flashes on the water Never twice the same Tell me do you have an answer Or at least someone to blame When everything Is run aground I can’t believe this thing I found It's so damn easy to love you It's just so easy to do Not sure I could stop now If I wanted to It's so damn easy to love you It's just so easy to do Not sure I could stop now If I wanted If I wanted If I needed to Sinking like a stone To the bottom of I don't even know I don't even know I don't even know It's so damn easy to love you It's just so easy to do Not sure I could stop now If I wanted If I wanted If I needed to

And I guess we all need someone to love And I guess we all need help sometimes And I’ve tried and I’ve tried but I just seem to go around forever Never the wiser No matter how tired you get something I want you to know Yeah whatever happens there’s always a place we can go Oh we’re on our way home On our way home And I never mean to let you down No I would never hurt you And I tried and I tried but I just seem to go around forever Never in control No matter how dazed we get something I want you to know Whatever happens there’s always a place we can go Oh we’re on our way home On our way home Let down Left out Just overcome by it all But no matter How dark the night gets I want you to know We’re on our way home

Fall In 04:24
We could try to dim the colour We could try to stop the world We could try to make our hearts say Nothing, not a single word We could try to work it all out Charts and graphs and 1 to 10 Or we could send it to the ether Nothing Or maybe we should Fall in Caution to the wind Fall in Caution to the wind and Fall in Fall in You and me we are the same though You know we both been hurt before But the more I try to hold on to Something the more I’m letting go Thinking thoughts just for the sake of But they all come back to you And I can’t tell if I’m missing Something Or if I should just Fall in Caution to the wind Fall in Caution to the wind and Fall in Fall in Spent so many lonely nights Learning how to hold on tight Didn’t think I’d ever let go And what you don’t know never hurts But when you’re around I learn Didn’t think I’d ever let go And just Fall in Caution to the wind and Fall in Caution to the wind Em // D // C Gmaj7 // C // D // C D/F# // G // C // D Am // Em // C

I could have walked around the world a couple times I could have swam across the ocean and back again Made a wish on every star that Galileo drew For all the time I've wasted on you I could have downed a million beers in Mexico Counted every piece of gravel on a long country road Sailed that slow boat to China right up to the moon For all the time I've wasted on you Time goes by and when it's gone it's gone and you realize Time just lies and you did not move on No, you just cried you just cried I could have filled the Mississippi river with my tears No telling what I could have done with all these years I could have dug out the Grand Canyon with a spoon For all the time I've wasted on you Time goes by and when it's gone it's gone and you realize Time just lies and you did not move on No, you just cried you just cried For everything I've lost I'm not mad at love I'd even give it one more day if I thought it would be enough I could have served five life sentences for a crime I didn't do For all the time I've wasted on you
23.
The attitudes of strangers The secrets of my friends The old familiar feeling The world is gonna end The girl who broke my heart up And every word she said Don’t matter to me right now Cause you are in my head The where the hell I’m going The what I’ve never done The infinite unknowing Of what we’ll all become The cracks upon the pavement On which I never tread That doesn’t bother me somehow Cause you are in my head The sky’s falling in Time’s running out And where to begin Is always in doubt And life isn’t fair That much is true But I just don’t care when I’m thinking of you Thinking of you All the tea in China The wonders of the world The hearts that beat inside us The diamonds and the pearls And all the earthly treasures I haven’t got to yet I ain’t got time for that right now Cause you are in my head I ain’t got time for that right now Cause you are in my head
24.
I don't have to sell my soul He's already in me I don't need to sell my soul He's already in me I want to be adored I want to be adored I don't have to sell my soul He's already in me I don't need to sell my soul He's already in me I want to be adored I want to be adored Adored I want to be adored You adore me You adore me You adore me I want to I want to I want to be adored I want to I want to I want to be adored I want to I want to I want to be adored I want to I want to I gotta be adored I want to be adored
25.
Wise men say only fools rush in But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay? Would it be a sin If I can't help falling in love with you? Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you For I can't help falling in love with you

Now What 05:22
Gotta keep that fire burning night and day Tell me how else will we ever get rescued? And the fire’s gonna burn out someday Better sit down honey have you heard the news? We’re circling An average star Out on the edge Of nowhere special So now what? We don’t have to make it mean anything We can do whatever makes us feel alright And it’s really low probability But the consequence is definitely high But would it hurt us even a little less If we ever manage to work out why? We’re floating round In the deep feeze Out on a limb Of one of a hundred billion galaxies We’re circling An average star Out on the edge Of nowhere special So now what?
27.
Well you said that I was always in your heart But in truth soon as it started there I was Trying to figure out the place the sky would fall And I wonder if it matters now at all Call the future by another name Could there ever be another way Whatever happened to the feeling I could even stop the world Well here we are Here we are And you told me everything that goes around Is gonna find a way to come and bring you down And we wanted to believe that we were wrong But I guess we found out that sometimes forever isn’t very long Call the future what you never did What happened to the revolution kids When it was over did they all forget That nothing’s ever really over so no matter what just tell me If you hear my voice cut through the noise You gotta not come running And if we live forever and ever, promise no matter what You won’t come running Cause I need this To be the hardest part So if I’m lost and I call your name, just turn around and walk away Just don’t come running And if we live forever and ever, promise no matter what You won’t come running Cause I can make it And heal this heart But I need this To be the hardest part
28.
Double Down 04:22
I said I would quit while I’m a whisper ahead But all of a sudden I’m a gambling man Sometimes it’s like it’s all against us This world is a rigged lottery But you know I can’t help but double down on you and me Now reason and making sense so meaningless I’m looking for reasons to be careless And I can’t say that you didn’t warn me But somehow that don’t mean a thing You know I can’t help but double down on you and me How can I say heaven help me It’s not something that I believe But you know I can’t help but double down on you and me All we lost Stacking up But I’m not giving up on us Losing track Of the cost But I’m not giving up on us All we had All we lost But I’m not giving up on us All we had All we lost But I’m not giving up on us
29.
For You 03:39
Great escape A bullet I dodged All those things I’d have given up Even so I’m doing it all For you Living now The futures a dream And yesterday Don’t mean anything But scratch the surface And all of my time Is for you And no matter where I run Forget what I believe There’s only room for one truth It’s all that I can carry And I can tell myself But I won’t ever hear it Cause I’m only listening For you All those words Creating a world Of safe and sound Of moving on But the silence In every pause Is for you And no matter where I run Forget what I believe There’s only room for one truth It’s all that I can carry And I can tell myself But I won’t ever hear it Cause I’m only listening For you It’s all for you
30.
Echo 05:52
Did you ever know Cause I’ve never known Something so ill fated And if there’s anything That could make me believe It’s our love desecrated After the curtain Falls And the stars go Cold And the moon drifts away When there’s nothing left The mistakes and regrets My love for you We’ll remain Cause this echo won’t ever fade Can you hear me you now Through the noise somehow Face to face one last time Under neon lights Realer than real life Searching for a sign Give me a sign After the curtain Falls And the stars go Cold And the moon drifts away When there’s nothing left But mistakes and regrets My love for you We’ll remain Cause this echo won’t ever fade No matter how dark it gets No matter cold We’ll echo After it’s said and done And this hope is Gone And the moon drifts away When there’s nothing left The mistakes and regrets The me and the you We’ll remain Cause this echo won’t ever fade
31.
Love me tender Love me sweet Never let me go You have made my life complete And I love you so Love me tender Love me true All my dreams fulfilled For my darling I love you And I always will Love me tender Love me long Take me to your heart For it's there that I belong And we'll never part Love me tender Love me true All my dreams fulfilled For my darling I love you And I always will Love me tender Love me dear Tell me you are mine I'll be yours through all the years Till the end of time Love me tender Love me true All my dreams fulfilled For my darling I love you And I always will
32.
If time is such a perfect healer If what don't kill you makes you strong And if tomorrow is a new day Then when’s tomorrow gonna come? When does it get easier? When does it get easier? If practice really makes perfection If everybody gets their turn If every heartache is a lesson Then when will I ever learn When does it get easier? When does it get easier? If sunshine always follows rain And good things come to those who wait How long have I got to wait? I'm not trying to be impatient But I feel like I've done my part I know it comes when you stop trying But I keep tying so damn hard When does it get easier? When does it get easier?
33.
We Did. 03:58
True love speaks between the lines Don't need words at all Keep them all inside of you True love can't be anchored to The ground beneath her feet There’s nothing on Earth you can do You can’t ever prove what you can prove Nobody can really have the truth But if anybody ever did We did. Looking back I always knew It would come to this Nothing stops the world from turning You can’t ever prove what you can prove Nobody can really have the truth But if anybody ever did We did. You can’t ever prove what you can prove Nobody can really have the truth But if anybody ever did We did. If anybody had true love true love If anybody had true love true love We did.

20/20 (Live) 02:53
All of the reasons I didn’t wanna see Like a range mountains how did they hide from me What is it they say? The forest for the trees Well now they’re 20/20 All of the fault lines, the ground beneath her feet All of the lost time, the sun dives in the sea all the warning signs I couldn’t bring myself to read It’s all 20/20 Every raindrop threatening to fall So many rainclouds obscuring the sun Somewhere in my heart did I always know, did I always know All of the last times I didn’t quite believe Was I out of my mind or walking in my sleep Hidden in plain sight but now it’s out of reach It’s all 20/20
36.
Visions of nothing and thoughts I’ve forgotten And everything is five thousand miles now Five thousand miles now Five thousand miles And all I can promise is all that I’ve got is a moment And that’s just five thousand miles now Five thousand miles now Five thousand miles And it’s hard to explain but you know that If I could only see your hands I know that in a split second you’d understand The stars and the gutter and one or the other And everything is five thousand miles now Five thousand miles now Five thousand miles You get what you’re given if I’m not mistaken I think all I’m thinking is five thousand miles now Five thousand miles now Five thousand miles
37.
Pieces 02:08
And in the hazy dancing city lights I found a tiny little piece of mind I put it somewhere that it would be safe Somewhere it could never slip away And long ago I blanked on where it was I know it’s out there somewhere I forgot The wind is howling it’s a hurricane So what was it that I was gonna say Here in the morning the sun is rising Here in the morning it whips and wanes And in the morning I find the pieces It’s like the the storm ain’t coming back again And nothing you could say Nothing you could do Could stop me coming back around To what I feel for you Nothing you could say Nothing you could do Could stop me coming back around To what I feel for you What I feel for you
38.
All Good 05:00
I thought that I had it in my head The words if I ever saw you again I’d tell you everything I never did But is it easier said than done? In spite of all of the times that I Have played this moment through in my mind Now you’re here and all I can do is try To catch you up on the basic stuff I drink a little more than I used to I care a little less than I did I sleep a little worse now without you I get a little tired of eveything I get a little lost thinking bout you I get a little pain in my chest I get a little scared that this will never end But other than that It’s all good I thought that I had it memorized I wrote and rewrote them a thousand times But you’re here and it’s all I can do to try Small talk and the basic stuff I drink a little more than I used to I care a little less than I did I sleep a little worse now without you I get a little tired of eveything I get a little lost thinking bout you I get a little pain in my chest I get a little scared that this will never end But other than that It’s all good

If sunshine always follows rain And good things come to those who wait How long have I got to wait? I'm not trying to be impatient But I feel like I've done my part I know it comes when you stop trying But I keep tying so damn hard When does it get easier? When does it get easier?

And you said don’t you think it’s a bore That nobody gets lost anymore But if I join the dots together Would I believe the map I made at all And yeah I know you’re out there somewhere Oooh So I will my feet off the ground ground ground Throw myself into the sound sound sound sound But somewhere not so deep down down down It’s the truth This heart beats only for you And the seasons are starting to stack up Cause you’ve taken the weather with you I surrender I’m holding my hands up Nothing I can do So I will my feet up off the ground And I throw myself into the sound But somewhere not so deep down I know it’s the truth Whatever I do So I will my feet off the ground ground ground Throw myself into the sound sound sound sound But somewhere not so deep down down down It’s the truth This heart beats only for you

Sometimes 03:32
Tell me the one about how we can do anything Just say it aloud for now I’m-not asking you to believe it Are you lost are you hurting, lonely just like everyone Are you thinking of ways to just turn down how human you are Well Sometimes just holding on is enough Tell me the one how you don’t wanna lose anymore And I promise I’ll listen and try not to sound the alarm Looking back it’s like we saw it coming, did nothing at all Yeah the sky is the limit when you start to count all the things gone wrong But Sometimes just holding on is enough Sometimes we can move mountains Make sense of it all Sometimes it’s beyond you to finish a thought Sometimes it feels like we couldn’t possibly lose And sometimes it’s all you can do, to hold on, hold on Yeah Sometimes just holding on is enough

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Once bitten and twice shy I keep my distance But you still catch my eye Tell me, baby Do you recognize me? Well, it's been a year It doesn't surprise me (Merry Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying, "I love you, " I meant it Now, I know what a fool I've been But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special A crowded room, friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you, and your soul of ice My god, I thought you were someone to rely on Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover but you tore me apart Now, I've found a real love you'll never fool me again Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover but you tore him apart Maybe next year I'll give it to someone I'll give it to someone special

The clock strikes upon the hour And the sun begins to fade There's still enough time to figure out How to chase my blues away I've done alright up to now It's the light of day that shows me how And when the night falls, my loneliness calls Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me I've been in love and lost my senses Spinning through the town Sooner or later, the fever ends And I wind up feeling down I need someone who'll take a chance On a love that burns hot enough to last So when the night falls My lonely heart calls Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Somebody who loves me To hold me in their arms I need someone who'll take a chance On a love that burns hot enough to last So when the night falls My lonely heart calls Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me Oh, I wanna dance with somebody I wanna feel the heat with somebody Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody With somebody who loves me

about

In 2017 I set out to send one song per week to my email subscribers. New songs, new versions of old songs, covers, studio versions, live versions.

This album is the complete collection of those songs, minus a few which are already released on other labels. A 44 track journal of One Song Per Week, every week for 2017.
