Declaration

I'm taken just the way you are
Imperfect words inside the perfect song
I feel you closer than you are
But I've been waiting far too long, too long

It's my declaration to anyone who's listening
You're my inspiration as I stand alone against the world
'Cause you love and you bleed and you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration

Do you care what I believe 'cause I'm still breathing
Or that I wear your heart upon my sleeve?
Sometimes I think you never knew
The only truth I see is you, is you

It's my declaration to anyone who's listening
You're my inspiration as I stand alone against the world
'Cause you love and you bleed and you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration

Are there any words to say that I would ever mean enough?
When the light runs from the day will the darkness be too much?
Will I ever be enough?

It's my declaration to anyone who's listening
You're my inspiration as I stand alone against the world
'Cause you love and you bleed and you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
So tell me you can hear these words tonight
It's my declaration

Music again

I want your body, mind, soul, et cetera
And one day you'll see, you should give it to me
And I don't want anyone instead of you
Oh babe I'm goin' crazy, come on and give it to me
And I ain't never met nobody better
You're someone else's baby

I'm so sick of living for other people
Took meeting you to realize
I don't wanna lose ya, I wanna keep ya
Put your little hand in mine and look into my eyes, baby eyes

Oh, you make me wanna listen to music again
Yeah, you make me wanna listen to music again

There had been many moons before I met ya
And I ain't going nowhere
And now you give me back my raison d'être
And I'm inspired again

And I know in some ways we're kinda evil
Got my roots, and you've got ties
But my heart's no stranger to upheaval
Put your little hand in mine and look into my eyes, baby eyes

Oh, you make me wanna listen to music again
Yeah, you make me wanna listen to music again

Maybe I'm amazed

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Maybe I'm a man, maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man, and maybe you're the only woman
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Mercy

I love you
But I gotta stay true
My morals got me on my knees
I'm begging, please, stop playing games

I don't know what this is
But you got me good
Just like you knew you would
I don't know what you do
But you do it well
I'm under your spell

You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me
I said release me

Now you think that
I will be something on the side
But you got to understand
That I need a man
Who can take my hand
Yes I do

I don't know what this is
But you got me good
Just like you knew you would
I don't know what you do
But you do it well
I'm under your spell

You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me
I said you'd better release, yeah

Maybe

I'm strong
But I break
I'm stubborn
And I make plenty of mistakes
Yeah, I'm hard
And life with me is never easy
To figure out, to love
I'm jaded but oh so lovely
All you have to do is hold me
And you'll know, and you'll see just how sweet it can be
If you'll trust me, love me, let me
Maybe, maybe

Someday
When we're at the same place
When we're on the same road
When it's OK to hold my hand
Without feeling lost
Without all the excuses
When it's just because you love me, you let me, you need me
Then maybe, maybe
All you have to do is hold me
And you'll know, and you'll see just how sweet it can be
If you'll trust me, love me, let me
Maybe, maybe

I'm confusing as hell
I'm north and south
And I'll probably never have it all figured out
But what I know is I wasn't meant to walk this world without you
And I promise I'll try
Yeah, I'm gonna try to give you every little part of me
Every single detail you missed with your eyes
Then maybe
Maybe, yeah maybe

One day
We'll meet again and you'll need me, you'll see me completely
Every little bit
Oh yeah, maybe you'll love me, you'll love me then

I don't want to be tough
And I don't want to be proud
I don't need to be fixed and I certainly don't need to be found
I'm not lost
I need to be loved
I just need to be loved
I just want to be loved by you and I won't stop 'cause I believe
That maybe, yeah maybe
Maybe, yeah maybe

I should know better than to touch the fire twice
But I'm thinking maybe, yeah maybe you're mine
Maybe, love maybe

Feeling way too damn good

I missed you so much that I begged you to fly here and see me
You must've broke down coz you finally said that you would
But now that you're here I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming
Coz something's gotta go wrong coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

For 48 hours I don't think that we left my hotel room
Should show you the sights coz I'm sure that I said that I would
We gotta make love just one last time in the shower
Well something's gotta go wrong coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

And it's like, every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it's like
The two of us should probably start to fight
Coz something's gotta go wrong coz I'm feeling way too damn good, oh
Feelin' way too damn good

Sometimes I think best if left in the memory
It's better kept inside than left for good
Lookin' back each time they tried to tell me
Well something's gotta go wrong coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

And it's like, every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it's like
The two of us should probably start to fight
Coz something's gotta go wrong coz I'm feeling way too damn good, oh
Feelin' way too damn good
Oh, oh, feelin' way too damn good

Balada do amor inabalável

Eu levo essa canção de amor dançante
Pra você lembrar de mim, seu coração lembrar de mim
Na confusão do dia-a-dia
No sufoco de uma dúvida
Na dor de qualquer coisa
É só tocar essa balada de swing inabalável que é oásis pro amor
Eu vou dizendo na sequência bem clichê
Eu preciso de você

É força antiga do espírito virando convivência de amizade apaixonada
Sonho, sexo, paixão
Vontade gêmea de ficar e não pensar em nada
Planejando pra fazer acontecer ou simplesmente refinando essa amizade
Eu vou dizendo na sequência bem clichê
Eu preciso de você

Mesmo que a gente se separe por uns tempos
Ou quando você quiser lembrar de mim
Toque a balada do amor inabalável
Swing de amor nesse planeta
Mesmo que a gente se separe por uns tempos
Ou quando você quiser lembrar de mim
Toque a balada seja antes ou depois
Eterna love song de nós dois

Leva essa canção de amor dançante
Pra você lembrar de mim, seu coração lembrar de mim
Na confusão do dia-a-dia
No sufoco de uma dúvida
Na dor de qualquer coisa

I try

Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here?
When will they stop?
I believe that fate has brought us here
And we should be together, babe
But we’re not
I play it off but I’m dreaming of you
I’ll keep my cool but I’m fiending

I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

I may appear to be free
But I’m just a prisoner of your love
I may seem alright and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
I play it off but I’m dreaming of you
I’ll keep my cool but I’m fiending

I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

Here is my confession
May I be your possession?
Boy I need your touch
Your love kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can’t deny

I play it off but I’m dreaming of you
I’ll keep my cool but I’m fiending

I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Thought I try to hide it, it’s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

Amor I love you

Deixa eu dizer que te amo
Deixa eu pensar em você
Isso me acalma
Me acolhe a alma
Isso me ajuda a viver

Hoje contei pras paredes
Coisas do meu coração
Passei no tempo
Caminhei nas horas
Mais do que passo a paixão
É um espelho sem razão
Quer amor, fique aqui

Deixa eu dizer que te amo
Deixa eu gostar de você
Isso me acalma
Me acolhe a alma
Isso me ajuda a viver

Hoje contei pras paredes
Coisas do meu coração
Passeei no tempo
Caminhei nas horas
Mais do que passo a paixão
É um espelho sem razão
Quer amor, fique aqui

Meu peito agora dispara
Vivo em constante alegria
É o amor que está aqui

Amor I love you
Amor I love you
Amor I love you
Amor I love you

Tinha suspirado
Tinha beijado o papel devotamente
Era a primeira vez que lhe escreviam aquelas sentimentalidades
E o seu orgulho dilatava-se ao calor amoroso que saia delas
Como um corpo ressequido que se estira num banho tépido
Sentia um acréscimo de estima por si mesma!
E parecia-lhe que entrava enfim numa existência superiormente interessante...
Onde cada hora tinha seu intuito diferente
Cada passo conduzia um êxtase
E a alma se cobria de um luxo radioso de sensações...

Amor I love you
Amor I love you
Amor I love you
Amor I love you

Terrified

You by the light
Is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong
You're the thing that's right

Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side

You said it again
My heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watchin' the shadows burnin' in the dark

And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life, life

This could be good
It's already better than that
And nothing's worse than knowing you're holding back

I could be all that you needed
If you let me try

You said it again
My heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watchin' the shadows burnin' in the dark

And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life, life

I only said it 'cause I mean it
I only mean it 'cause it's true

So don't you doubt
What I've been dreaming
'Cause it fills me up
It holds me close
Whenever I'm without you

You said it again
My heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
Watchin' the shadows burnin' in the dark

And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life, life, life
In my only life
