It's Only Make Believe

If we have only tonight
lets both get what we want
For come the morning light
we'll fade from each others thoughts
Tell me how you want it
I will take you there
Every words a sonnet
tailor made for you with care
I can go fast or slow
or somewhere in between
Ready and able to go
follow or take the lead
Here in our land of make believe
we'll do and say whatever we please
we don't care who sees
It's only make believe
If we have only this kiss
lets make it long, make it last
so we'll remember our lips
together in a beautiful past
Tell me what you want to know
and I'll tell you the truth
even if it makes me show you
every crooked tooth
Never have I said the words
that I say to you
I know that it sounds absurd
but what have I to prove
Here in our land of make believe
we'll do and say whatever we please
we don't care who sees
It's only make believe

Before You

Babe, Yes, you're just a baby
You think you got it all figured out
You wanna show me what it's all about
How I want you too
But there ain't nothing I will do
No matter what you prove
'cause baby I'm no fool
I've been around this way
Before you.
Yes you say all the right things
Yes you laugh as they would
say the things that you should
and a queen they'll someday say
but it won't be today

Suit & Tie

So I'll tell you now
I'm kinda glad
you weren't around
when I was young
and full of pride
with all of my dreams
not yet in sight
Now I dress
in my own way
Nobody tells me
to do it their way
I will tell you no lies
I don't wear suits & ties
but I can oblige
for this one last time
In more than
more than one way
we're much alike
more everyday
like when I'm
full of rage
and don't want to listen
want someone to pay
I wish I could cry
drown this suit & tie
but I will be as dry
as this suit & tie
Can you see me?
When I was lost
and needed help
I found the answers
inside myself
So stop talking
please save your speech
there's no boy here
that you can reach
I hope that you like
like your suit & tie
and I know that it's time
lets say our last goodbyes
in our suits & ties
Can you see me now?
Could you see my desire
wade into fire for you?

gunmen
03:12

Many terrified, many feeling weak
some want to equalize with the sound of a piece
Many bodies drop, many tears fall
some people call the cops, some people go to war
and it's always the same when you got your hands up
it's so hard to be brave when the bullets fall down like rain
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
why must it be?
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
we open fire on our family?
Such a shame nobody speaks up
it's hard to be brave when you hear a gun pump
In the backyard, on the battlefield
another broken heart trigger happy with the steel
and all over the world it's getting insane
whether a boy or a girl there's a bullet out with your name
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
why must it be?
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
we open fire on our family?
Nobody move, nobody get hurt
Mommy got a gun 'cause daddy had one
sister got a gun 'cause little brother had some
On the movie screen, in the parking lot
on the front page 'cause everyone know the plot
and all over the world it's such a shame
it's hard to be brave when the bullets call out your name
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
why must it be?
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
we open fire on our family?
It makes you feel strong, makes you feel good
and you're never wrong 'cause bullets are understood.

You better believe that I'm coming back
and coming back so strong
'cause I say I can it won't be too long
and the tears & pain have all gone away
it's more than a claim that I came to stay
Yeah, I'm feeling good, I'm feeling fine
Oh I feel the shine, I feel it's mine
and I feel the time to be alive has now arrived
that when I was low I would always face the ground
but that was then, this is now.
You better believe that I'm feeling brighter than any star
Yes, I'm going higher, higher than Mars
and I'm better and I'm better by the day
I'm so happy to say
when I was sad I would always wear a frown
but that was then, this is now.
For such a very long time there was a smile I couldn't hide
said hello to everyone on the street, the kinda smile you had to greet
Times grew tough and it had to go underground
but that was then, this is now.

Love is Everywhere
04:06
|

It's not an effort to come around
take comfort in the simple sound
in the humming of a passing crowd
Is it something you can help me see?
have i been looking too aggressively?
All I want is what has always been
Love is Everywhere
Is there a message written on the wall
is there a message written on us all
Don't need a message from a king
don't need another's thoughts to think
All I want is what has always been
Love is Everywhere
holy angels sing songs for you and me
Love is Everywhere

Vagabond Shoes
04:40

Love stay a little while
you want to sleep on the couch
rest your weary head
all your fears and doubt
don't have to share your bed
your vagabond shoes
that have walked a thousand miles
they remind me of when I was like you
You can say
you can say what's on your mind
Just slow down and take your time
everything will be all right
You've been running so long
every which way seems wrong
your vagabond shoes
with the tattered soles
they remind me of when i was like you.
On your own is where you feel at home
but know that I'm always here
when you need somewhere to turn
or disappear
