And I kissed you once

Well I wanna see you soon,
But I wonder how yeah.

But it's an old day now.

It's been a long time looking for

Just when I thought I found you.

Oh, This time I stepped up to plate yeah,
I didn't mean to do you no harm baby.

Situations change yeah yeah,
I make amends because I'm strong.
All my friend have helped me,
I know where I belong.

MISS YOU, HATE YOU
I got a problem burning through my veins,
I got a tattoo on my arm with your name.
A Ragin' virus burnin' through my skin,
Can you tell me why this has to end?

I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
I didn't mean to shed no, shed no blood yeah.
Maybe I was trippin' baby, you know what I mean,
Maybe that someday you'll believe in me yeah.
Maybe you'll believe in me...

I miss you, I hate you, 'cuz I feel you,
I don't want to but I need you.
I miss you, I hate you, 'cuz I feel you,
I don't want to but I need you, baby

I've been seein' demons and I’ve been seein' saints,
I've tried pretendin' that I’m somebody that I ain't.
I could be the beggar down upon his knees,
But I’ve seen the truth - It's gonna set me free yeah.
Baby you will set me free...

'cuz I feel you,

NUTHIN’ I WOUDN’T DO (FOR A WOMAN LIKE YOU)
I got snakes around my ankles, bats all in my hair.
I fight tigers with a toothpick, just to prove to you I care.
I know you don't expect it yeah,
I can make this dream of mine come true.
Oh yes I do.

In this crazy world we live in,
There's nuthin' that I wouldn't do for a woman like you.

Now age is not a barrier, it don't get our way.
It's love that really matters now, it's love that makes you stay.
If I can't explain it yeah,
I can make those dreams of mine come true.
Oh yes I do.

All you need to do is trust me yeah,
Nuthin' that I wouldn't do for a woman like you.

My life is all a wonder, the truth is all around.
I just can't get over baby, all the happenings I’ve found.
I could never love another, though in love like this is nuthin' new.
Oh nuthin' new.

All you need to do is ask me baby,
There's nuthin' that I wouldn't do for a woman like you.
Nuthin' I wouldn't do…

COLOUR AND SHAPE
Down here in New Orleans, prayin' for holy water,
To rain on down, rain on down on me.
I got to tell you how I feel,
And I don't care as long as it's a side that's real.

Like a dark cloud that casts no shade,
Seven days pass I still pray for rain.
I want to see things my way,
I will add colour and shape.

Now I'm frozen in time, bound by convictions,
Obey the trust, things I learned long ago.
Please now spare me, spare me your old folklore,
All I really want are things they were before.

Like a dark cloud that casts no shade,
Seven days pass I still pray for rain.
I want to see things my way,
I will add colour and shape.

Like a dark cloud that casts no shade,
Seven days pass I still pray for rain.
I want to see things my way,
I will be be who I am and see things my way,
I will add colour and shape

HEADACHES TO HEARTBREAKS
I have my bad days, have my good days too.
They all coincide with my new attitude yeah.
And pretty baby to the blues I sing, it's my only teacher.
Just headaches to a heartbreak.
Never meant to ???
I feel like I've been used, never want to see you again.

But it's bittersweet, and interesting what the world brings;
I know that now.
I'm gonna have my say, this is time when I turn the page;
Headaches to heartbreaks.

I'm from the old school, like the old rules,
Don't care anymore what you're gonna do.
Just shake up the system, ??? listen to you.
A friend of mine, past his prime,
Struggled for a chance to make a dime.
Now for no reason he committed treason again.

But it's bittersweet, interesting what the world brings;
I know that now.
I'm gonna have my say, this is time when I turn the page,
Headaches to heartbreaks

I have my bad days, have my good days too.
They all coincide with my new attitude yeah.
And pretty baby to the blues I sing, it's my only teacher.
Just headaches to a heartbreak.
Never meant to ???
I feel like I've been used, never want to see you again.

But it's bittersweet, and interesting what the world brings;
I know that now.
I'm gonna have my say, this is time when I turn the page,
Headaches to heartbreaks

TROUBLE WAITING
Well I just can't win - there's no place to turn,
I keep makin' the same mistakes and never seem to learn.
There's no place to go - no place to stay.
Trouble waitin' for me baby every day.
I've got trouble waiting, yeah I’ve got trouble waiting.
With every corner and every which way,
There's trouble waiting every day.

I'm all tangled up - yes it's a shame,
I ain't got nobody but myself to blame.
I've got trouble waiting, yeah I’ve got trouble waiting.
With every corner and every which way,
There's trouble waiting every day.

I want to point the finger - blame somebody else.
Then there's three more fingers pointing right back at myself.
I've got trouble waiting, baby, yeah there's trouble waiting.
‘Round every corner and every which way,
Trouble waiting every day.
Yeah there's trouble waiting - every day.
Yeah there's trouble waiting - every day.
From every corner and every which way,
There's trouble waiting...

IF HEARTACHES WERE NICKELS
I wish you could see me
All broken down this way
But even if you saw me, baby
I know I still couldn’t make you stay
Couldn’t make you stay
You know about the high cost of loving baby
But someday, someday
You’re gonna have to pay
Gonna have to pay

Oh, a woman like you needs fine things
And I knew it from the start
And I don’t have much to offer
Just this old broken heart, hey baby
Just this old broken heart
But if heartaches were nickels
I would not, I wouldn’t be here crying in the dark

Yes If wine and pills were hundred dollar bills,
I might keep you satisfied
And if broken dreams were limousines
I might take you for a ride
And all I can do is think of you
And wish you were here by my side
Yes, if heartaches were nickels
I’d be the richest fool alive

If wine and pills were hundred dollar bills,
I might keep you satisfied
If broken dreams were limousines
I might take you for a ride
But all I can do is think of you
And wish you were here by my side
Oh, if heartaches were nickels
I’d be the richest fool alive
I’d be the richest fool alive

CURRENT SITUATION
Don't have no trial held against me baby,
Before I have a chance to explain my side.
Don't have no trial held against me baby,
Before I have a chance to explain my side.
Although there's just some rumors just a flyin',
I want you to believe, I can testify.

Goin' to live life on my own,
Not gonna catch that train.
Got this blues in my soul,
And I don't feel ashamed.
Because it's my current situation,
My current situation must change.

‘Cuz all I really need,
All I really need are some new ways.

Goin' to live life on my own,
I'm not gonna catch that train.
Got this blues in my soul,
And I don't feel ashamed.
Because it's my current situation,
My current situation must change.

All I really need...
All I really need...
All I really need are some new ways, yeah

DON’T BURN DOWN THAT BRIDGE
You got your mind set on leavin'
Drive down a one-way street.
You're gonna lock up all the doors child,
Throw away the key.
Don't burn down that bridge darlin'
Just might want to come back.
'Cuz the grass ain't no greener,
On the other side of the track.

Well you counted me out,
'Fore I could get you back.
Today I'm drivin' a Chevrolet darlin'
Tomorrow might be a Cadillac.
Don't burn down that bridge darlin'
Just might want to come back.
‘Cuz the grass ain't no greener,
On the other side of the track.

All your so-called friends,
Taught you how to cheat and lie.
Now you say you're gonna jump honey,
From the fryin' pan into the fire.
Don't burn down that bridge darlin'
Just might want to come back.
‘Cuz the grass ain't no greener,
On the other side of the track.
