I got a picture, of the girl I wanna be Dancing round inside my head I haven’t met her, she’s just a better brighter me But I ended up like this instead Wishing I was someone else Dreaming of a better self The girl I wanna be doesn’t have a worry in the world She smiles at almost everyone she sees And I know all my clothes would look better on her She’d write this song much better than me Oh she knows, she holds the world in her hand Oh she knows, that she’s brave enough to take a stand The girl I wanna be doesn’t eat everything she sees Or drink till she says things she doesn’t mean Left to her own devices she won’t screw up everything Or lose it in a crowd and make a scene She’ll never hit thirty, she’ll never slow down She’s comfortable in her own perfect skin She’ll never feel dirty or wear this worried frown She’s pure both on the outside and within She’s not wishing she was someone else Dreaming of a better self Oh she knows that fortune only favors the bold Oh she knows she’s beautiful, don’t need to be told I got a picture of the girl I wanna be I hope that one day that girl is me

The best part of the day Is the moment I wake up with you The sunlight slips through the shades But I’m not nearly ready to move Cos I haven’t woke up, I don’t wanna get up Won’t you hold me, make the world go away Cos lying right here with you’s the best part of the day The best part of the day Is lying here in your arms We dreamt our worries away Now we’re dozing in the morning calm I aint leaving this bed, lets just stay here instead And to hell with what the world may say Cos lying right here with you’s the best part of the day Before I come around and get it together before I count all the things that I gotta do Before the phone has a chance to ring The morning birds they start to sing Just before I open my eyes, just before I open my eyes The best part of day Is you and me lying here Your arm hung over my waist An you breathing softly in my ear Lets just pull up the sheets, and pretend we’re asleep Is there any way that we can stay Cos lying right here with you’s the best part of the day

Everything 03:26
Today the whole world became clear for the very first time The answer to everything I have been trying to find It was so obvious, how could I not see the signs All that I wanted stood right here before my eyes It took so long but I didn’t know where to begin Guess I needed to know I was sure before I let you in But I think I know now that I got you under my skin Oh all you are, all you are, All you are is everything, everything, everything Well I wanted something much more than a casual fling Cos I’ve been there before and I know all the trouble it brings But I wasn’t quite sure what you were to me, how much you mean Now I know, all you are is everything When I can’t see straight, you make it clear When I’m lonely, you’re the voice I wanna hear And when I’m scared, you make my worries disappear All I know is, I just need you here Today the whole world became clear for the very first time I opened my eyes and the rest then just fell into line I’m so glad you waited while I got it clear in my mind Oh all you are, all you are, All you are is everything, everything, everything Everything, everything

Don't Stop 04:22
Still waiting for Romeo, He’s running late by a year or so, maybe he’s a no-show, oh I’m sure there’s a way to go, Before I throw in the towel and lose all hope, but just lately I don’t know, oh. I keep telling myself I’m just biding my time, Gotta wait till the moment’s right, oh yes When the going gets rough, you’ve had more than enough And you wanna give up Don’t stop, just keep giving, Don’t stop, cos life’s worth living Just keep trying, laugh although you’re crying Its never gonna bring you down now, no no Don’t stop, just keep going, don’t stop , even though you know its Snakes and ladders, but nothing really matters, Its never gonna bring you down, just don’t stop I keep getting the run-around I had a plan for life, had it all worked out, well shouldn’t we be there now, oh So the future has gone to ground, At this point in time I should be taking a bow, instead I’m tearing my hair out, oh I keep telling myself that its all gonna come, gotta walk before you run oh yes, When the going gets rough, you’ve had more than enough And you wanna give up When it feels like nothing’s ever going to plan Don’t give up now, just do all that you can

Letting Go 03:26
Only one chance that I wanted to take To hold onto something that I couldn’t break But nothing worth keeping, Will ever leave you anyway So I’m letting go (say goodbye to my yesterdays) I’m letting go (say goodbye to my yesterdays) I’m letting go (say goodbye to my yesterdays) I’m letting go (say goodbye to my yesterdays) Only one part of you wanted to stay But I always knew the words you couldn’t say And I don’t wanna keep you If your dreams are far away Goodbye is just something that I’ll have to face And I’ll try to move on But I’ll leave the key to the door just in case You wanna come home, you wanna come home
