I spent my life waiting for you--- Prince Charming, won't you carry me home And when I had you, I thought I knew no goodbye ever again anymore But now you've got the call again they're sending you away again we need this, but I hate it got me sayin How Long How Long How much longer Until they take my baby How Long How Long How much longer are they gonna keep my baby away are they gonna keep my baby away I spend my days waiting for the moment you come back through our door Gave you my heart, but I feel further from the promise than I ever did before Goodbye is all we seem to do they always get the best of you we need this, but I hate it Got me sayin' How Long How Long How much longer Until they take my baby How Long How Long How much longer are they gonna keep my baby away are they gonna keep my baby away Last night I woke up in a sweat, just to find an empty bed dreamed that I was where you are--- I shouldn't have to dream to feel your arms

Nothing Left to Say 04:05
lyrics

I can't do this no more, got no more strength left to fight I've given all of myself 'til I've got nothing left inside They always told me I was strong But everything I do only proves them wrong How do you play when you don't know the rules, you don't even know the game? What do you do when they say you could fly, but you're falling just the same? If I had it, I could give it, but I think I've reached my limit And there's nothing left to say Nothing left to say I can't pretend anymore, pretend that everything is fine So everyday I try a little more, and fight to keep you by my side I gotta keep you standing tall and so I take the weight, and I pray I don't fall How do you play when you don't know the rules, you don't even know the game? What do you do when they say you could fly, but you're falling just the same? If I had it, I could give it, but I think I've reached my limit And there's nothing left to say Nothing left to say I'll be fine, I'll go ahead on my own But you've been barely breathing, and I'm the only one who knows How do you play when you don't know the rules, you don't even know the game? What do you do when they say you could fly, but you're falling just the same? If I had it, I could give it, but I think I've reached my limit And there's nothing left to say Nothing left to say and there's nothing left

Victoria Song 04:05
lyrics

When I think of you, I think of cherry blossoms blowing on the wind, like summer snow When I think of you, I think of endless summer winding streets, windy beaches in sunshine glow Now I walk your streets and I see their familiar names But I feel like a stranger, because you have changed Things fall apart The center cannot hold When it's just a memory inside a soul Seasons, as they change, Things wax and wane Nothing will ever remain the same You were good to me, I remember laughter and I promised to myself you'd always be my home Even when I ran away, I always came right back to your arms to catch my breath You'd never gone too far But now I walk your streets, I see their familiar names But I feel like a stranger, because you have changed Things fall apart The center cannot hold When it's just a memory inside a soul Seasons, as they change, Things wax and wane Nothing will ever remain the same

Can't Keep Up 03:46
lyrics

Meet me by the old stairs, the same old place where we used to sit and dream You've taken off, followed your star, and now you're never here it seems I can't keep up, I can't keep up with you So where are you old friend I know you gotta be there somewhere But we don't talk like we used to Have you outgrown me, 'cause it seems that I am just too small for you I can't keep up, I can't keep up You want the stars, but we're so far apart I can't keep up, I can't keep up with you I still hold onto the memories we shared When I was your leaning shoulder, and you were mine But now life moves faster than the speed of light We try but we can't catch up with the time I can't keep up, I can't keep up You want the stars, but we're so far apart I can't keep up, I can't keep up with you Wait for me, wait for me You want the stars, but we're so far apart Wait for me, why won't you wait for me You want the stars, but where is your heart

One That I Adore 03:28
lyrics

Even in a crowded room, I pick you out, no lie Music seems to follow you, I try to keep you in sight Oh, 'cause you, you're bringing something new something I've been waiting for Could you be the one that I adore? Could you be the one my heart beats for? Now you're standing next to me, making the music dance Already following your lead, ready to take a chance Let's take the floor, and we can dance some more This must be my lucky night Could you be the one that I adore? Could you be the one that I adore? Take my waist and hold me tight, so we can dance away the night you just might be what I'm looking for Hold me closer, I'm almost sure Move your body come in closer feel the rhythm let me feel your body move show me how your body move

Being 2 03:38
lyrics
buy track
There are some people, meant to be together Like two hearts that beat as one, like promises made forever There was a time when I thought that we would be that way We tried to take two and make one Instead we made two hearts break You try to love me I try to love you You try to fight me and I fight you Don't feel like it's supposed to But I don't want to Go back to being two So tell me what's on your mind Cause you know we haven't been talking And if I can't read your heart Maybe we should start walking Cause I can feel the break, and I know you can feel the distance tell me is it too late? Tell me if we can fix this You try to love me I try to love you You try to fight me and I fight you Don't feel like it's supposed to But I don't want to Go back to being two And Oh, the times we've tried to get it right and Oh, all the tears that we have cried No, I just can't let you go You love me, I love you you fight me, and I fight you But I don't want to Go back to being two

Same Song 06:04
lyrics
buy track
I know you, I know you're better even if you don't see what I see I don't want you, but I want you to be more than just another casualty I see your light, but you got no fight no fight I want to see you better, but every time, I see you're just singing the same old song I can't do nothing for you If you don't want nothing better, then keep singing the same old song So I'm done trying, trying to make it better If you're not even in the game, why am I still playing for your side? Your excuses made me, they made me hate you Or maybe I hate myself too because I could not save you It weighs me down You don't wanna be found I want to see you better, but every time, I see you're just singing the same old song I can't do nothing for you If you don't want nothing better, then keep singing the same old song They all wrote you off a long time ago Another shadow drifting like a lost soul But I remember and I want you to know

Away 03:44
lyrics

Who's looking at the little bird in her corner of the sky? All alone she flies through the darkness of the night Hoping she can find her way, til daybreak Praying for the strength to fly when her moment comes to climb Who's watching from afar? Who's giving strength to your heart? Who's holding you, to keep you safe? because all alone this bird is gonna Fly away Who's looking at the little bird in her little cage? All alone she sings of freedom and escape, thinking there must be some way, maybe some day Until then, she keeps her heart, singing light into the dark Who's watching from afar? Who's giving strength to your heart? Who's holding you, to keep you safe? because all alone this bird is gonna Fly away And it's you against the world always, But your spirit never fades The heart's gonna find a way,, a way, a way, a way Who's watching from afar? Who's giving strength to your heart? Who's holding you, to keep you safe? because all alone this bird is gonna Fly away

Lover's Moon 03:59
lyrics

Oh lover's moon, Why you gotta be so cold and cruel? Flying way out there, without a care, away from the weight of the world Oh lover's moon, you're no friend, from all that I can see Still I wonder why I ever let you shine your light on me Silently you captured my eye Patiently you draw the hearts and tides But you don't care, you've got nothing, nothing inside And as my heart was breaking you stood by Oh lover's moon, Why you gotta be so cold and cruel? Flying way out there, without a care, away from the weight of the world Oh lover's moon, you're no friend, from all that I can see Still I wonder why I ever let you shine your light on me Am I the only one that you fooled, thinking love could be a fairy tale come true? Did you forget all the lies, the pain, the fights? Did you forget what it feels like to cry? Oh lover's moon, Why you gotta be so cold and cruel? Flying way out there, without a care, away from the weight of the world Oh lover's moon, you're no friend, from all that I can see Still I wonder why I ever let you shine your light on me How could you know, out there all alone all the shadows that you've thrown? How could you care? You've got a heart of stone Oh lover's moon, Why you gotta be so cold and cruel? Flying way out there, without a care, away from the weight of the world Oh lover's moon, you're no friend, from all that I can see Still I wonder why I ever let you shine your light on me

Where's The Love (ft. Rob Singery of Bright Is My Sun) 04:15
lyrics
buy track
Why keep on trying? It don't look so good to me It's plain enough to see Late at night crying aching to be free Oh Lord, you ain't a cheat Where's the Love, Where's the Love, Where is the love Where's the love we're dying for Where's the love, where's the love, where is the love where's the love we're dying for What are we to do when the chances come and pass and nothing seems to last? Longing for something more than sinking sand, as the times slips through our hands Where's the Love, Where's the Love, Where is the love Where's the love we're dying for Where's the love, where's the love, where is the love where's the love we're dying for Sitting, waiting, trying to be satisfied Is it worth misery to keep the desire alive? Get off the floor and live your life You'll never find the perfect time Don't ever stop believing in the love of a lifetime (Rap Interlude) Where's the Love, Where's the Love, Where is the love Where's the love we're dying for Where's the love, where's the love, where is the love where's the love we're dying for
