May I be the air around you, the air you feel
May I build the walls around you, these walls are real
And may I be only everything, everything you need
Oh, may I be
May I be the dirt underneath, under your feet
May I build a bridge beneath you, so you may cross
And may I be on the other side; never again lost
Oh, may I be
For everything I am cannot stand
To your reflection
And everything I build cannot last
Even one second
So may I be
May I be the sun above you, to give you light
May I build a stairway for you, for you to climb
And may I be very far away, and you arrive at night
Oh may I be
For everything I am cannot stand
To your reflection
And everything I build cannot last
Even one second
So may I be
For it is your heart that I must elevate
And it is your heart that is yours
And when your heart steps into a room
Oh may I be the anointed floor
The anointed floor

Come Clean

Pretty doesn't matter when you act like me
Tearing up the town and every man I see
I stop short trying to tell you that I love you
I don't even notice what it does to you
For all the things I avoid
For all the things I hide
I'm trying to come clean about them
And wash your tears dry
Lying never got me any further along
Walkin' down this road is just not quite as fun
As walkin' with you
And now I'm alone
For all the things I shared
For all the love I hide
I'm trying to come clean about them
And wash your tears dry
For all the things I avoid
For all the things I hide
I'm trying to come clean about them
And wash your tears dry

If I Had A Gun

If I had a gun
I would shoot for the moon
And even if the bullet missed
You would know I did it for you
And maybe I could hit a star
In a while, hit a star
And even if the bullet missed
You know I'd do anything for you
If I had my guitar
I would write you a song
And even if I made mistakes
You would know I sing for you
And maybe I could make a dime
In a while, make a dime
And I will learn from my mistakes
And I will sing for you
Everything is nothing, my whole world is nothing without love
Yeah without love
Everything is nothing, my whole world is nothing without you
Baby, without you
And if I had some time
I would spend it all with you
And even if we never kissed
You would know I'm thinkin' of you
And maybe I have more to give
In a while, something to give
And even if we never kissed
You know I'd do anything for you

Lonely Tonight
04:07

|
The years, they go by fast than anyone can ever know
Love is given, though I have never been so alone
If you thought you would be happy, well just wait another year
And if you thought you would be free, well just wait another
Don't worry, everything will be all right
We're all just a little bit lonely tonight
Don't you cry, no more tears in your pretty eyes
We're all just a little lonely tonight
Life has a funny way of not turning out just like we planned
Love is a funny thing, it's so much more than holding hands
If you've lost the feeling of just being alive
And if you think this whole wide world's gone wrong
Come on along and sing this song:
Don't worry, everything will be all right
We're all just a little bit lonely tonight
Don't you cry, no more tears in your pretty eyes
We're all just a little lonely tonight
So many thing I've wondered myself
When can I take my heart from the shelf
And give it to someone; can I give it to you?
So many things have not come true
But I have so much love that is not being used
So I'll just write it down, I'll write a song
But when can I sing it?
I'll write it down, I'll write a song
But when can I sing my song?
If you think this whole wide world's gone wrong
Come on along and sing this song:
Don't worry, everything will be all right
We're all just a little bit lonely tonight
Don't you cry, no more tears in your pretty eyes
We're all just a little lonely tonight
We're all just a little lonely tonight
