Mongolian Afternoon
04:09
|
|||
So you’re hearing
There’s a change in the scene
Across the clearing
A room for the kings and queens
Start believing
There’s a reason to be
In the feeling
When you’re walking next to me
In the ballroom
There’s a sweet melody
That is calling
For letting your soul release
So pick your poison
Put your heart in the groove
Watch your body move
Come with me
The show’s starting soon
The drinks are free
And so are the tunes
So come and see
Mongolian Afternoon
So you’re smiling
Cause they’re playing your song
There’s no denying
You know that there’s something wrong
You try the handle
But you’re locked in this room
Such a scandal
You’re leaving but not so soon
The bottle’s missing
If you want to get away
You’ll have your price to pay
Come with me
Walk under the moon
The drinks are free
And so are the tunes
So come and see
Mongolian Afternoon
Will you have the pleasure of
Taking home the one you love

Candygram
04:18
|

It’s getting to be that time of the year
We’re giving out love and getting back fear
Yeah the monitor is almost here
Bringing candygram
But only brings heartbreak for me
Can’t you see
Sweet tarts for Emily
Sugar hearts on the next over seat
And now his sights are set on me
Bringing candygram
With no name inscribed on the seal
Is this real?
Is this how it feels to be loved?
Is this what dreams are made of?
But who can it be
That would send this to me?
School bus is a smooth ride home
Posted up in the back seat alone
Ice cold sweat, my hand white as stone
Holds my candygram
As I get out and walk to my door
To mother’s warmth
How’s my little Valentine?
How was school? I said it was fine.
And she stunned with me her final line
Did you get my candygram?
I knew not to laugh or to cry
Tears of joy
Is this how it feels to be loved
Then why do we make such a fuss?
Who needs an affair
When mommy is there?
Not me.

Devotion
05:51
|
|||
Dream away the dimming day
As dreams of our future fade
I thought when I opened my eyes, nothing would have changed
But I can't stand this life we made
What can I do to make you feel
That I am new, that this is real?
I know right now you’ve never been so insecure
But now I’ve never felt so sure of my
Devotion
If I cannot see a brighter day
Would you stay with me and tell me it’s okay
If I cannot seem to satisfy
Will you sit me down with you and tell me why
If there ever lingers any doubt
Would you have the faith in me to call me out
Cause it’s all in all a mystery
How I treat you like I do and you still love me
Yeah, me
Believe me
Receive me
It’s easy when two worlds confide

Butterflies
04:13
|

You still give me butterflies
After all this time
I need to know
What you’re doing to me
Cause you see
I love you
I can’t keep the thoughts away
I ain’t walkin’ straight
I feel so low
Til you’re back in my sight
I just might
Love you
Every time our heartbeats synchronize
Every time we touch I’m paralyzed
The only thing I feel when I close my eyes
Are butterflies
Way your body moves I’m hypnotized
Wrapped in your cocoon but I know you’re mine
So come on baby let’s metamorphosize
To butterflies
And touch me
Don’t fly away
You still give me butterflies
After all this time
I need to know
What you’re doing to me
Cause you see
And touch me
Don’t fly away
Hold me
Don’t fly away
Way your body moves I’m hypnotized
Wrapped in your cocoon but I know you’re mine
So come on baby let’s metamorphosize

Century Star
04:14
|

Once in a hundred years
The century star appears
And legends are told how it brightens the sky
With head of fire and tail of ice
It last came before recall
When our grandfathers learned to crawl
But tonight is the night it should once again pass
So gather around, lie on the grass
Comet come and comet go
Comet give us life you know
Tilt your head up to the sky
See the century star go by
We’ve been here for hours now
And restlessness runs through the crowd
And still is the starlight that’s taunted since dusk
There's been not a hint of motion above
Did it forsake our rock?
Did it just miss a stop?
Did it take a wrong turn at Ganymede Moon?
Wherever it is, it better show soon
Comet come and comet go
Comet give us life you know
Tilt your head up to the sky
See the century star go by
And if the century star don't come
Mama's found a brand new sun
Giving life to planets new
Where future generations view

Love of My Life
04:56
|

Love of my life
How can I find
Anyone new
Half worth my time
Somebody who
Makes me alive
Like you do
Love of my life
I’ll be alright
Long as I keep
You out of my mind
But you planted a seed
So love of my life
Come back to me
Whenever I need you
I’ll be there
When the earth is crumbling
And sky falls from above
Just let me know
That there will still be love
Love of my life
Stay on my side
I’ve put in too
Much of my time
Just help me through
Just hold the line
While I breathe
Love of my life
Don’t put up a fight
Follow my lead
I can’t compromise
I won’t let you be
So love of my life
Come back to me
