Life Boat 03:09
One day we can fall asleep Underneath the stars together Holding hands and making plans forever You open up your heart to me and show me vulnerability So when i fall I know you'll always catch me I know you'll catch me You're my life boat and boy you save me When I'm drowning in this world and I cannot keep a float You're my lighthouse and boy you save me When I am lost at sea your light it shines the way for me You say that your love for me is anchored like an old oak tree And heaven knows I do believe When life caves in and pulls me down sticks and stones may brake my bones but you will always and forever be around I know you'll always be around You're my life boat and boy you save me When I'm drowning in this world and I cannot keep a float You're my lighthouse and boy you save me When I am lost at sea your light it shines the way for me You save me ooooh You save me You're my life boat and boy you save me When I'm drowning in this world and I cannot keep a float You're my lighthouse and boy you save me When I am lost at sea your light it shines the way You're my life boat and boy you save me When I'm drowning in this world and I cannot keep a float You're my lighthouse and boy you save me When I am lost at sea your light it shines the way for me

Blue Skies 03:24
I got all these pictures hanging on my wall But none of these faces I can recall Take then down and start over new oh Lead me down that avenue where we Fall inlove again with strangers in the park Smiles on our faces and ribbon round our hearts We will make this last forever Make sure it never ends we'll have blue skies and butterflies and sunsets We're so scared of falling or being left behind That we end up sitting watching life pass us by So stand up and tear off the lace cause Soon we'll be running to the place where we Fall inlove again with strangers in the park Smiles on our faces and ribbon round our hearts We will make this last forever Make sure it never ends we'll have blue skies and butterflies and sunsets na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na x2 Where we Fall inlove again with strangers in the park Smiles on our faces and ribbon round our hearts We will make this last forever Make sure it never ends we'll have blue skies and butterflies where we Fall inlove again with strangers in the park Smiles on our faces and ribbon round our hearts We will make this last forever Make sure it never ends we'll have blue skies and butterflies and sunsets

I need a straitjacket some times Cause I get real crazy and I I start to think out loud These days it seems that we live on caffeine We make a real big scene When nothing goes our way So I'm starting a war to solve all my problems you'll see I'll be okay So we're starting a war to solve all our problems hey world we'll be okay Who am I to tell you how to live your lives But the news is only feeding you lies And that makes me feel like we are loosing it all So I'm starting a war to solve all my problems you'll see I'll be okay So we're starting a war to solve all our problems hey world we'll be okay mmmm Bombs are gonna fall oh Lord save us all and we are to blind to see that it's love that we need x2 oh it's love that we need it's love That we neeeed So I'm starting a war to solve all my problems you'll see I'll be okay So we're starting a war to solve all our problems hey world we'll be okay So I'm starting a war to solve all my problems you'll see I'll be okay So we're starting a war to solve all our problems hey world we're not okay

Take 03:22
Take this heart Take my heart I don't hear it beat I don't hear it beat Anymore Take this love Oh take our love I don't feel it anymore I don't feel it anymore no more I have tried to fix this But all you do is hide Behind your heavy eyes You live your double life So take your lies Take all your dirty lies And please I don't want to hear them no more More no more I have tried to fix this But all you do is hide Behind your heavy eyes You live your double life oooh oooh aah oooh So I'll take my pride I'll take back my mind And move on yes I'll move on From you

I was falling deep inlove with you With your chocolate hair and your holy shoes You took me for a ride on your paper plane We started getting comfy so you asked me to dance and I was feeling lucky so I took a chance You made me feel likeI was floating in a bubble cross the sky And i'm like oooh Ooooh ooh ooh Ooooh ooh oooooh My bubble gum popped and I came tumbling down When I found out there was another girl Kissing your mouth Now I can't compete with the pretty dresses she wears hooo you're stringing me along just like a bobbing balloon What we once had keeps me tied to you I'm wrapped around your finger so tightly but I need to be free Free And i'm like oooh Ooooh ooh ooh Ooooh ooh oooooh My bubble gum popped and I came tumbling down When I found out there was another girl Kissing your mouth Now I can't compete with the pretty dresses she wears hooo My bubble gum popped and I came tumbling down When I found out there was another girl Kissing your mouth Now I can't compete with the pretty dresses she wears noooo
