Chorus
youve changed its not fun anymore
doing things that we used'to,
always worrying 'bout the future
youve changed, youve forgotten how it was
how we lived our life and loved our youth
lived for now and loved the truth

Verse 1
i remember when we were teenagers
playing in the park hangin' out till after dark
in the summer, and all weekend you'd come away with me
we'd go camping in the hills were we'd learn survival skills
and on your birthday, you'd show me all your presents
brand new rollerskates roller-disco with your mates
always had a great time everything would be fine
we were the best of friends but thats not how the story ends

Verse 2
nowadays everything has changed
you want to leave your mark, so you work till after dark
even in the summer, thru till the winter
so youve got to pay the bills but too much work can also kill
and on your birthday, you still get lots of presents
but you cant make any dates, even drinking with your mates
always, in a hurry, same story, apologizing, saying sorry

Bridge
its true we all must have priorities
and we cant ignore responsibilities
but youve got to keep the balance theres no need to scarifice
love for youth thats the truth, keep it real dont waste your life

Chorus
She's all hype, the wrong type
just another pretty face and a head full of space
the fact is, she's plastic
can't believe u turned me down so that she can wear my crown

Verse 1
I heard she came into town last week
and already, she's got you at her feet
calling her on the phone all day
I remember, it used to be that way (with me)

Verse 2
I was the apple of your eye
the only one, to set your heart on fire
you put me on a pedestal
and now your leaving me all alone on this hill

verse 3
You belong with a classy lady
imagination that can make you go crazy
not the kind that agrees to everything you say
and can't stop you when your going the wrong way

Bridge
If this is what you think is cool
then boy, your nothing but a fool
I can't believe you fail to see
that what you really need is me

Chorus
once bitten means im twice shy
you will never get another chance to see me cry
once bitten means im twice shy
and i dont wanna hear more lies
once bitten means im twice shy
i read thru your game baby, nice try
once bitten means im twice shy
i want you out my life honey, byebye

Verse 1
girlfriend, i see what youve been doing
trying'to get close to my man on the down low
afterall, youve been thru his crew
i guess it aint enuff cos you wanna have him too

Verse 2
bestfriend, theres nothing i wont do for you
and its always been that way ever since high school
i care and im there when you need me
it makes me wonder now why your trying'to cheat me

Bridge
why'do'you always wanna take whats mine
you keep on pushing now youve crossed the line
i forgave you once before, cos thats what friends are for
but ive had it up to here, and i just cant take no more

Chorus
lets pretend everything is alright
its the beginning instead of our last nite
and you'll say what you said to me
that you'll stay with me for eternity
lets pretend that you never met another
lets pretend im your only lover
and i'll give you all you need
lets pretend you'll stay and you'll never leave

Verse 1
why oh why, does a good thing always have to end
you gave no warning, i tried but i just cant understand
i gave you everything, everything and even more
i guess its obvious, you dont know what your looking for

Verse 2
my oh my, will this heartache ever go away
b'cos of you im so confused cant concentrate
ive lost my strength, i stand with no defense
if you break my heart, you break my confidence

Verse 3
see me cry, i cant hold back these tears oh no
dont let this love die, drive away my fears oh
say your sorry, say it was all a dream
make it better, make me breathe again.

Chorus
take the time, make it last
if you want it, dont go too fast
you give nothing, and you get none
but give a little baby, and you'll get some tonite

Verse 1
let me show you how a real lady shoud be treated
for my softness, tenderness is all thats needed
if you wanna prove that you deserve me
then tonite, maybe you can serve me

Verse 2
dont bring me flowers when your late
dont send me presents to compensate
dont waste yor money on fancy wine
if you wanna impress me just be on time

Bridge
here's a secret my revelation
all you need is imagination

Chorus
You can have it all baby
you've been so good to me, i just can't resist your charms
as far as i can see
there ain't nobody else who deserves my undivided

Verse 1
You've been so patient with me
through the good and the bad times ( good and the bad times)
most of all I appreciate the compliments
words of encouragement I think you must be heaven-sent

Verse 2
Never have i felt this way
you bring out the best in me (bring out the best in me)
I can trust you with my heart that's for sure
feel so lucky to have you and i never feel insecure

Bridge
I've been saving myself for the right one
never knowing if the right one might come
now your here, i just wanna let you know
that i'll never let you go, and i want you so

Chorus
the time is now so dont wait for tmrw
im walking out cant live with the sorrow
and from here on out i wont wait for tmrw
i wanna hold my head up high
and stop singing that sad song

Verse 1
when your feeling, low and cant take no more
you gotta take it slow, and reach for that door
turn away before, its too hard to ignore
you can do it if you try
cos your made from more, than what people say
you did it yesterday, and you can do it today
and you know theres more, than whats on display
show them all that you can fly

Verse 2
i tried my best to make you understand
im not the kind to make demands
but you still go on like no other can
now ive had it up to here
so im leaving you to be by yourself
maybe then you'll come to realise yourself
that i am the one and theres no one else
who can give you what ive got

Bridge
cos your right for me and im right for you
if you stand by me i'll stand by you too
and thats all it takes thats all you have to do
just a little makes a lot

Chorus
I am what i am
whatever i choose to be i am
and it's almost lucid dreaming
im free to decide my own meaning

Verse 1
There must be more to life than a 9 to 5
There must be more that makes me wanna stay alive
i wonder what it is, that's passed me by
before the What, When, & How, there must be Why

Verse 2
I've heard of many people who risk it all
fortune-seeking laid aside, when they hear the call
It cannot be forgotten, it cant be ignored
it resonates inside of you, like a chord

Verse 3
At the end of many rebirths and after many trys
we finally come to understand, why we all must die
for only in that moment when we shed our skin
can we distinguish, where we end and we begin

Bridge
Tonite i see the reason, tonite i see the Why
another opportunity, before it passes by
tonite i see my destiny, the greatest prize
the reason i exist, I am, about to realise

Chorus
face it you cant go on with a mind thats full of regret
and you gets no respect, if you wanna get served
go all out get what you deserve
face it theres more to life
bigger fish in the sea if you wanna be free
dont waste it cos aint nothing sweet
if you feel what im saying then move your feet

Verse 1
it makes me wonder if life is worth living
all it takes, and nothing is given
day after day, you try'to keep up with the flow
sometimes it gets hard and you just wanna let it go

Verse 2
i cant understand how could this be
good things happen to everyone but me
theyve been there and done that
while i just came on the scene
its an uphill struggle and im running out of steam

Bridge
wake up baby its not too late
its not too hard and its not too great
trust in me and your heart wont break
together we'll conquer and set it str8

Riff
face your problems embrace your dreams
its the only way you can set them free
face your problems embrace your dreams
i wont let fear get the best of me, yeah
