Oh sweetheart
Put the bottle down
you got too much talent
I see you through those bloodshot eyes
there's a cure you found it
slow motion sparks
you caught that chill
now don't deny it
but boys will be boys
oh yes they will
they don't wanna define it

just give up the game and get into me
if you're looking for thrills then get cold feet...

oh no I do not hook up up
I go slow
so if you want me
I don't come cheap
keep your hand in my hand
and your heart on your sleeve
oh no I do not hook up up
I fall deep ' cause the more that you try
the harder I'll fight
to say... goodnight

I can't cook no but I can clean...
up the mess she left
lay your head down and feel the beats
as I kiss your forehead
this may not last
but this is now
so love the one you're with you want a chase
but you're chasing your tail
a quick fix won't ever get you well

CHORUS

'Cause I feel
the distance
between us
could be over
with a snap of your finger

CHORUS

Oh sweetheart put the bottle down
'Cause you don't wanna miss out

Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again

Cuz we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Maybe I was stupid
For telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong
For tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way I found out I'm nothing without you

Cuz we belong together now, (yeah)
Forever united here somehow, (yeah)
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you,
But I can't let you go,
Oh yeah

Cuz we belong together now, (yeah yeah)
Forever united here somehow, (yeah)
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Cuz we belong (yeah) together now (together now), (yeah)
Forever united here somehow, (yeah)
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

I hope the ring you gave to her
Turns her finger green
I hope when you�re in bed with her
you think of me
I would never wish bad things
But I don�t wish you well
Could you tell
By the flames that burned your words
I never read your letter
Cause I knew what you�d say
Give me that Sunday school answer
Try to make it all okay

Does it hurt
To know ill never be there
bet it sucks
to see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
you knew
exactly what you would do
Don�t say
You simply lost your way
She may believe you
But I never will
Never again

If she really knows the truth
She deserves you
A trophy wife
Oh how cute
Ignorance is bliss
But when your day comes
And he�s through with you
And he�ll be through with you
You�ll die together but alone
You wrote me in a letter
You couldn�t say it right to my face
Give me that Sunday school answer
Repent your self away

Does it hurt
To know ill never be there
bet it sucks to see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
you knew
exactly what you would do
Don�t say
You simply lost your way
they may believe you But I never will
Never again

Never again will I hear you
Never again will I miss you
Never again will I fall to you
never
Never again will I kiss you
Never again will I want to
Never again will I love you
Never!

Does it hurt
To know ill never be there
Bet it sucks to see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
you knew
exactly what you would do
Don�t say
You simply lost your way
They may believe you
But I never will
I Never Will
I never will
Never again

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)

Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I prayed I could break away

[Chorus:]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

[Chorus]

Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging around revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway

I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway, breakaway, breakaway

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh
Every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I watched you die
I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry
In the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you
Because of you

Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything felt so right
Unbreakable like nothing could go wrong
Now I can't breathe
No I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on

Here I am
Once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny
Can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I've cried
Behind these hazel eyes

I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright
For once in my life
Now all thats left on me
Is what I pretend to be
Sewed together with whats broken up inside
Cause I can't breathe
No I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on

Here I am
Once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny
Can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cried
Behind these hazel eyes

Swollow me and spit me out
For hating you I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No I don't cry on the outside
ANYMORE!
anymore

Here I am
Once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny
Can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cried
Behind these hazel eyes

Here I am
Once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny
Can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cried
Behind these hazel eyes

Here's the thing
We started out friends
It was cool, it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
You dedicated, you took the time
Wasn't long, till I called you mine
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I'd picture me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get, what I want
Since you been gone

How can I put it, you put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
Guess you never felt that way

But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get, what I want
Since you been gone

You had your chance, you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth, I just can't take it
Again and again, and again and again

Since you been gone, (since you been gone)
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get, I get what I want
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
You should know that I get
I get what I want

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
Since you been gone

Ooooohhh
Oooohhhh ya
Mmmmm

Love can be a many splendid thing
Can't deny the joy it brings
A dozen roses
Diamond rings
Dreams for sale
And fairy tales
It�ll make you hear a symphony
And you just want the world to see
But like a drug that makes you blind
It�ll fool you every time

The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger then your pride
The trouble with love is
It don�t care how fast you fall
And you can�t refuse the call
See you�ve got no say at all

Now I was a once a fool it�s true
I played the game by all the rules
But now my world�s a deeper blue
I�m sadder but I�m wiser too
I swore I�d never love again
I swore my heart would never mend
Said love wasn�t worth the pain
But then I hear it call my name

The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger then your pride
The trouble with love is
It don�t care how fast you fall
And you can�t refuse the call
See you�ve got no say at all

Every time I turn around
I think I�ve got it all figured out
My heart keeps callin
And I keep on fallin
Over and over again
This set story always ends the same
Me standin in the pouring rain
It seems no matter what I do
It tears my heart in two

The trouble with love is (the trouble with love)
It can tear you up inside (it can tear you up inside)
Make your heart believe a lie (Make your heart believe a lie)
It's stronger than your pride
(The trouble with love is) It's in your heart it's in your soul
(It don�t care how fast you fall) You're losing all control
(And you can�t refuse the call)
See you�ve got no say at all
The trouble with love is (Oooo.ya)
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie (the trouble with love..)

Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance
Miss unafraid
Miss out of my way
Miss don't let a man interfere, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'd never ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love

What is this feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise...It's time
To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive
Goodbye, old you
When love is true

Miss guarded heart
Miss play it smart
Miss if you want to use that line you better not start, no
But she miscalculated
She didn't want to end up jaded
And this miss decided not to miss out on true love
So, by changing her misconceptions
She went in a new direction
And found inside she felt a connection
She fell in love.

What is this feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door (open my door)
Surprise...It's time (yeah)
To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive
Goodbye (goodbye), old you (oh you)
When love, when love is true

When Miss Independent walked away
No time for love that came her way
She looked in the mirror and thought today
What happened to miss no longer afraid?
It took some time for her to see
How beautiful love could truly be
No more talk of why can't that be me
I'm so glad I finally see...

What is this feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise (surprise), it's time (yeah)
To feel (to feel) what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive
Goodbye (goodbye), old you
When love, when love is true...

Miss Independent
