Camera One

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

The sandy haired son of Hollywood
Lost his faith in all that’s good
Closed the curtain, unplugged the clock
Hung his clothes on the shower rod
But he never got undressed
And no, he never made a mess

It’s funny how life turns out
The odds of faith in the face of doubt
Camera One closes in
The soundtrack starts
The scene begins

You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
Take a bow
Take a bow

The trophy wife from Palisades
Whose yearbook beauty never fades
Sits and watches the sea fold in
And wonders what might have been
If she could ever have the chance
Would she do it all again?

It’s funny how life turns out
The odds of faith in the face of doubt
Camera One closes in
The soundtrack starts
The scene begins

You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
Take a bow
Take a bow

On the corner
By his streets
He sits in his lawnchair
In the heat
Sightseers see
What they want
They’re selling star-maps
To the sun

The sunny-haired son of Hollywood
Lost his faith in all that’s good
Closed the curtain, unplugged the clock
Hung his clothes on the shower rod
But he didn’t get undressed
And no, he didn’t seem depressed

It’s funny how life turns out
The odds of faith in the face of doubt
Camera One closes in
The soundtrack starts
The scene begins

You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
You’re playing you now
Take a bow
Take a bow
Take a bow
Take a bow

Winter

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

I should know who I am by now,
I walk the record stand somehow,
Thinkin’ of winter
Your name is the splinter inside me
While I wait

And I remember the sound
Of your November downtown,
And I remember the truth,
A warm December with you,
But I don’t have to make this mistake,
And I don’t have to stay this way
If only I would wake…

The walk has all been cleared by now
Your voice is all I hear somehow
Calling out winter
Your voice is the splinter inside me
While I wait

And I remember the sound
Of your November downtown,
And I remember the truth,
A warm December with you,
But I don’t have to make this mistake,
And I don’t have to stay this way
If only I would wake…

I could have lost myself
In rough blue waters in your eyes,
And I miss you still

Oh! I remember the sound
Of your November downtown,
And I remember the truth,
A warm December with you,
But I don’t have to make this mistake,
And I don’t have to stay this way
If only I would wake…

Imagine

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today…

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace…

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…

You Were Meant For Me

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

I hear the clock, it’s six a.m.
I feel so far away from where I’ve been
I got my eggs, I got my pancakes too
Got my maple syrup, everything but you
I break the yolks and make a smiley face
I kinda like it in my brand new place
I wipe the spots off of the mirror, don’t leave the keys in the door
I never put wet towels on the floor anymore ’cause

Dreams last so long, even after you’re gone
I know, that you love me and soon you will see
You were meant for me and I was meant for you

I called my momma, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn’t wanna talk
So picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken or people being used
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
I saw a movie it just wasn’t the same
’cause it was happy and I was sad and
It made me miss you oh so bad cause

Dreams last so long, even after you’re gone
I know, that you love me and soon you will see
You were meant for me and I was meant for you

I go about my business, I’m doing fine
Besides, what would I say if I had you on the line
Same old story, not much to say
Hearts are broken every day

I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
I know you hate it when I leave the light on
I pick up a book and turn the sheets down and then
Take a deep breath and a good look around

Put on my pj’s and hop into bed
I’m half alive but I feel mostly dead
I, I try and tell myself it’ll be all right
I just shouldn’t think anymore tonight ’cause

Dreams last so long, even after you’re gone
I know, that you love me and soon you will see
You were meant for me and I was meant for you
Yeah, you were meant for me and I was meant for you

Without U

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

I like when you whisper softly,
things only I should hear that lead me on, ohhh.
I like the way that u smile at me,
and make me feel like nothing can go wrong.
Tell me this will last forever, dont u ever leave.

I dont wanna be without u
dream without u,
walk without u,
talk without u, baby

never take a chance without u,
dance without u,
nothing is the same without u, baby

i could never be without u
hear without u
begin without u
end without u

Baby im in need
i cant breath
no i dont wanna be, without u

i love when your eyes wash over
with a look only i can tell
whats on your mind.
i love the way that u find me
whenever ive lost my way,
your just in time, hey.
Baby we’ve got something started
say we’ll never stop.

I dont wanna be without u
dream without u,
walk without u,
talk without u, baby

I’ll lock up my heart
and throw away the key,
if thats what it takes to keep your love with me.
You open the door to all thats good in me.
I can’t deny the truth
that I could never be, without u.

I dont wanna be without u
dream without u,
walk without u,
talk without u, baby
