Moments come and moments fade away Do you remember where you were that day It was cold and it was pouring rain (Pouring rain) We agreed to go our separate ways Hey how have you been I haven't seen you in a while Hey how have you been It's good to see your smile Remember driving up the coast Remember reaching for the stars And we both wanted the most (Wanted the most) But we broke each other's hearts Hey how have you been I haven't seen you in a while (In so long) Hey how have you been It's good to see your smile

I have so many songs to sing But you are not listening Only a whisper One quiet whisper It isn't like you to run away It isn't like you to say the things you say It isn't like you look at my face is it you It isn't like you It isn't like you I see the writing on the wall There is nothing there at all Only a whisper A little whisper I spent all these years And now I'm looking for? Someone tell me please Reach the unreachable Touch the untouchable Scream a thousand screams Only a whisper One quiet whisper Just a whisper One little whisper

A rag in her mouth so she can't scream Hands behind her back with a rusty chain A river runs through her a river runs deep She likes it like that she likes it like that She likes it like that she likes it like that She's a come back begging she's a broke your heart She's your Armageddon she's a work of art She likes it like that she likes it like that She likes it like that she likes it like that She likes it she likes it she likes it like that She likes it she likes it she likes it like that

Sell my fortune buy a ladder Climb my way back up to you There's a fortress of distraction And it's not letting me through Give me money give me time She's my lover and she's alright My baby I said I had to hold her She said she knows how the story goes She loves vodka and black leather Smoke filled rooms and her tattoos She's the author of my passion Lovely dangerous through and through Give me money give me time She's my lover and she's alright My baby I said I had to hold her She said she knows how the story goes

Baby Said 02:10
Baby said that she was cold Windows rattled with the sleet and snow And I said baby I know As I hung up the telephone There's a girl running around She's out on the town And I've got nowhere to go Me and baby are staying home I got a little girl She's so confused She wants her mommy I want her mommy too Baby said she'd try to sleep But the noise was keeping her awake And I said baby please As I got down on my knees It's time like these she leaves me lost No pretending can right the wrongs And I'm stuck watching hours pass I can take it but my baby can't I got a little girl She's so confused She wants her mommy I want her mommy too

Sometimes You Just Don't Ever Know How To Do the math I took her to the park today So we could have a laugh There's A lot of people out Some of them holding hands She looks at me and says We could be like that But I don't know how to dance I don't know how to dance I don't know how to dance Good lord I said I don't know how to dance There are things to think about That no one ever has Like why do people feel so high Right before they crash Does she ever lose it all Behind her happy mask I just want to do what's right Don't want to ruin her plans But I don't know how to dance I don't know how to dance I don't know how to dance Good lord I said I don't know how to dance Instrumental I don't know how to dance I don't know how to dance I don't know how to dance Good lord I said I don't know how to dance

There's a lady who lives up the road She's at a dead end with nowhere to go She loves her babies they're getting big She's got a tall hamper with a flip lid Tall hamper with a flip lid He wants a scooter She wants a pony Making art for mommy With macaroni Disappointment is a tough way to live She's got a tall hamper with a flip lid Tall hamper with a flip lid She's got a heart She's got a soul She's got a hamper With three loads to go She don't have money But it is what it is She's got a tall hamper with a flip lid Tall hamper with a flip lid

Don't fall down I know you're down on your luck If you fall You're gonna get scuffed And you'll hurt and you'll cry and you'll bleed The world will surround you until you can't breathe There are holes Inside all our lives There are fences That we can't climb There are people Who ruin a good time Baby girl don't fall down Don't fall down You know you're all growing up And the choices You've made have been tough I know it feels like you're in a bad dream But things are not nearly as bad as they seem There are holes Inside all our lives There are fences That we can't climb There are people Who ruin a good time Baby girl don't fall down

Stop flying your jet around It's getting way too loud Baby is trying to sleep Stop knocking on my front door I can't take it anymore Baby is trying to sleep When she cries Her big brown eyes They say to me She wants some sleep Stop calling on my phone Told you twice nobody is home Baby is trying to sleep Stop laughing at the TV Anxiety is killing me Baby is trying to sleep When she cries Her big brown eyes What can it be Momma needs some peace

There's a light on in the window And I am just a shadow Would you believe in me would you believe Is there something I could do to make you see I cannot help you anymore There's so much I still want to say But it is getting in the way But it is getting in the way There's a lady without a hero She got swallowed by her pillow Would you believe in me would you believe Is there something I could do to make you see I cannot help you anymore There's so much I still want to say But it is getting in the way But it is getting in the way There's a light on in the window And I am just a shadow
