Trouble

Bonnie Mckee Trouble Lyrics
1.Trouble

Ah yes
I remember too well
How hard
I tried avoiding your spell
It was a cold October night
It was a far from sober night
And I was taken at first sight
And this was much to your delight

I'd heard
That you were looking for prey
Hungry for a different girl everyday
But you were so sly in coming in
I wouldn't fight, I let you win.
All of the blood upon your chin
Told me exactly where you'd been
Trouble Trouble
Troublemaker

Who would have thought I'd ever let somebody get to me
Who would have thought I'd ever give a damn
I gave to you the one thing that I can never retrieve
And I am leaving my heart bleeding in my hands

You told me all about your dreams
You were so deep,
Or so it seemed
Although I'm young, I'm not naive
I am not easy to deceive

I see the danger that lies beyond your eyes
And I wanna scream when you're rubbing on my thighs
I know I should but I can't say no, I won't.
Troublemaker, gotta let you go, ooh
Trouble trouble
Troublemaker

Who woulda thought I'd ever let somebody get to me
Who woulda thought I'd ever give a damn
I gave to you the one thing that I can never retrieve
And you're leaving my heart bleeding in my hands

I thought I knew you well
I thought you'd catch me if I fell
But when I fell you never came
That's when I knew this was a game

I thought, Because I knew that I'd won
But honey, that's easier said than done
Cuz I lose my breath when you're kissin' on my neck
Boy you've got me in check, but I haven't lost yet
Trouble Trouble
Trouble maker
Don't you bring it round here
Trouble


2.When It All Comes Down

I knew
she knew
We both knew that someday all of this would end

I tried to help
but all I seem to do is hurt
not only her but myself

And someday
I'll be on the road again
And someday
I'll meet you at the top my friend
Don't cry, don't cry
although I know it's hard to comprehend, oh
Don't cry, don't cry

I'll hold your hand if you hold mine
When it all comes down, oh
don't close your eyes
I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mind
When it all comes down
and take a big deep breath

It feels so empty
without my hand intwined with yours
I don't know where to go
Cause I'm all alone
Ain't got nobody by my side
You hear me, no one

And someday
I'll be on the road again
And someday
I'll meet you at the top my friend
Don't cry, don't cry
Although I know it's hard to comprehend
Don't cry, don't cry

I'll hold your hand if you hold mine
When it all comes down, oh
Don't close your eyes
I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mine
Yeah when it all comes down
And take a big deep breath

Na na na na na na (when it all comes down I'll be there, there
is nothing for you to fear)
Na na na na na na (when it all comes down you'll know you'll
never have to stand alone)

I know you're feeling afraid girl
I know you're feeling alone
But when you feel you can't make it on your own, yeah yeah

I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mine
When it all comes down don't close your eyes
I'll hold your hand if you hold mine yeah when it all comes down
and take big deep breath

Whoa oh yeah oh oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ohhh oooh ooh


3.Open Your Eyes

Day after day
All I saw was you
And the sky came a tumblin' down
Smoke in the air
All I want is truth
I am a light that's aglow, that's alive
That's a warm place in your heart
You kept turning me on and off
'Til I went out and you were standing shivering in the dark

Open your eyes
And see me leaving
Closing the door
I won't think twice
When you come pleaing
Not ANYMORE

Hope was a dream that I had of you
In the soft warm slumber of dawn
I must keep in mind
That reality can be painful if neglected too long
I am aware
That I will soon be released
To the mercy of a concrete jungle
I thought that I could glide right in
But instead
It's over loneliness and pride I stumble

Open your eyes
And see me leaving
Closing the door
I won't think twice
When you come pleaing
Not ANYMORE

Open your eyes
And see that I am not afraid of saying goodbye
Your strikes are up, I'm gone
So don't even try
'Cause I'm telling you right now
That I'm a free young woman
And I gotta be movin' on

Once I was lost in my strife
And getting you off was my life
I was in doubt, now I know
That getting rid of you was all I needed to grow
Once I was lost, now I'm found
With my adidas on the ground
Once I was blind, now I see
The negative effect that you were having on me

Open your eyes
And see me leaving
Closing the door
I won't think twice
When you come pleaing
Not ANYMORE

You're not the man
That I remember
Tell me your name
Cold empty seat
That long November
You never came

Open your eyes
And see me
See me leaving


4.Somebody

I sit alone
In the dark theatre watchin' the people go by
hand in hand
everybody but me
oh

I stay behind
watchin' the credits roll by
roll roll roll right by me

I know, I won't cry
cause there is somebody somebody somebody waitin' for me
out in the rain

oh cry
not tonight
because there is somebody waitin' for me
oh yeah

I take a walk
the streets are busy tonight
and I am searching for you
waiting to brush your shoulder
But I'm alone
I watch the faces roll by
roll roll roll right by me

But I know, I won't cry
cause' there's somebody somebody somebody waitin' for me
out in the rain

oh cry
not tonight
because there is somebody waitin' for me

How many words will go unspoken
Not knockin' on my door
I'm not talkin' the night I spent heart broken
BUt tonight I know
I won't cry no more
oh

I lie awake
I left the porch light on
I hope it helps you to find your way
outside
I hear the thunder roll by
roll roll roll right by me

But I know, I won't cry
cause' there is somebody somebody somebody waitin' for me
out in the rain
Not gonna cry tonight
no cause there is somebody waitin' for me
not gonna cry tonight
no
no no no no
oh
not gonna cry
not tonight cause there is somebody waitin' for me

I stay behind
watchin' the credits roll by
roll roll roll right by me


5.A Voice That Carries

I gotta get away from here,
where its always cold
I wanna warm my soul
becuz I'm watching the inlands die
said I'm gonna pack my bags
gonna leave today
I got no need to stay
cuz no ones gonna kiss me goodbye

I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I don't need anybody to face today becuz
I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
becuz I know that if my journey leads
me waiting alone
I've got a voice that carries, carries me on up
and gonna carry me down to LA

I said its been ten long years,
since I've seen the sun
and living on the run
still hanging my head in shame

when my momma said to speak my mind,
to listen what I say,cuz there will come a day
when everybody screaming my name

I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I dont need anybody to face today becuz
I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
becuz I know that if my journey leads
me waiting alone
I've got a voice that carries,carries me on up
and gonna carry me down to LA

I've got a voice that carries, carries me down
to where the sun don't stop
I've got a voice that carries, carries me
away from my pain yeaaaa
I've got a voice that carries, carries me down
to where the sand is hot
I've got a voice that carries, thats the only
thing thats keeping me sane
I've got a voice, can you hear it, calling me,
up and away
I've got a voice, can you hear it, calling me,
calling me,calling me down to LA

never a place to go,or a place to be no..
as long as I can breath,
I'll always have my get away song

I don't need anybody to lead the way
I got a dream to follow
I don't need anybody to face today becuz
I've got tomorrow
I don't need anybody to break my fall
becuz I know that if my journey leads
me waiting alone
I've got a voice that carries, carries me on up
carries me down to LA
(repeat)

I've got a voice that carries(repeat 7x)


6.Honey

Memories haunting my evenings,
eyes watching me through the moon
I hope my good days aren't over
not so soon....
I never have seen an angel
I gave up watching the sky
whisper softly to me honey
but don't lie,don't you lie

I still see you when my eyes are closed
and tell me why I can't let go
I still smell you inside of my clothes
oh, honey

someday I'll go for the glory
I'll conquer everyones fears and
for once the ending of the story won't be tears
I have seen to much betrayel
I have heard to many lies
someday I'll be purple lightening in the skys

I still see you when my eyes are closed
and tell me why I can't let you go
I still smell you inside of my clothes
oh, honey...
I can't love anybody but you, oh, honey...

I was alone, I was broken ehh
I needed someone to love
your love was sticky like honey
your love was sticky like honey
I said your love was sticky like honey

I still see you when my eyes are closed
and tell me why I can't let go
I still smell you inside of my clothes
oh, honey... woooo oyea

I can't love anybody but you,I'm afraid
yea but I know its true
I can't find no one sweeter then you
oh, honey........
see you, fell you,touch you,,,can't let go of you
honey...


7.Green Grass

Are you leaving,do I feel you disapper
am I crying
am I dreaming, will I wake up years ago
or am I dying

Well I rememeber,so long ago
and the sky was still blue,
I was walking and I'm not alone,not alone
I remember so long ago and I still felt so good
and you told me I could have my way with you
I remember way down inside

you're pretending, make believeing
that I'm in charge, I am a child

I am starving, I am eating from your hands
feed me fiction

Well I remember, so long ago
and the night I was new and you told the two
sets of three, yes you did
and I remember so long ago
and the green in your eyes that is something
inside me that burns,feel the burning,
way down inside

on that beautiful night, I watched you lay flat
through the one beautiful,near the green grass
where I heald you, in the green grass
where I was, way down inside

well I remember so long ago and
you said not a word but I know that
I heard your goodbye, yes I did
and I remember so long ago
and I knew you were gone but your love
and your heart through the years
I still love you, oo way down inside yea ooo

would the life forget the time
would the soul forget to die
would the wind forget to fall
would my eyes forget to cry

I'll remember like the moon
way down inside(repeat)


8.January

You say although your love for me is strong
That a lover under seventeen is wrong
another night goes by
and I awake enveloped in your arms
you won't make up your mind
because your helplessness turns you on
If you leave now, baby don't come back,
If you leave baby don't come back(2x)
Chorus
January's just around the corner
I know that you'll be back by then
I'm counting down the days on my calendar
'till loving me won't be a 'sin'
I thought that after all we've seen (and done)
that your 'battling with morality' was won
You've already crossed the line-
You might as well just wait it out
I haven't got the time
to be let in and then be shut out
So if you leave, baby don't come back
Chorus
I don't want you to leave, but I need you know
that I can only take so much of all your come and go
so stick around and they'll be no more reason for concern
Because your baby will be legal when the season turns
Chorus


9.Marble Steps

I climb the marble stairs that lead away
away from everything I used to know
I try to keep my eyes down on the way
the way my mother told me not to go

Well all I ever wanted was a hand to hold me down
To keep the sky from swallowing me up
and all I ever needed was someone to come around
and tell me that I've suffered long enough

So take me away
Find me a home
I'm on my way
I'm on my way, yea

I wonder when I'll see the stars again
I thought that they had faded long ago
the other step I'm closer to the end
I'm climbing cause I don't know where to go

Well all I ever wanted was a place to store my faith
I thought that I could keep it locked away
It burns my eyes to look at him
and see the truth inside
and so I've turned my broken face away

So take me away
Find me a home
I'm on my way
I'm on my way, yea

I always dreamed of some days with you
Only your echos can break my heart
I need a hand to hold me to keep me on land
I feel I'm drifting through ???

Well all I ever wanted was a hand to hold me down
To keep the sky from swallowing me up
and all I ever needed was someone to come around
and tell me that I've suffered long enough

So take me away
Find me a home
I'm on my way
I'm on my way, yea


10.Sensitive Subject Matter

I told you I would be there
a promise I intend to keep
but the subject matter hits
a little too close to home
and now I can't take back what I gave

A lot of times we've seen
the states that we've been in
you always save me from my troubled self
it seem
but now I'm hearing all these words you say
and I'm not sure if I can stay
and listen to you melting all my dreams

Baby it's you
that kept my feet on the ground
thought that I could choose
if I always wanted you around
Darling I do
think we need time apart
I still need time to mend my broken seams

I told you I would listen to you
So I'm all ears
But don't ask me to respond to your pleads
for my advice
cause I'm too burden to speak

Baby it's you
that kept my feet on the ground
thought that I could choose
if I always wanted you around
Darling I do
think we need time apart
I think the time has come for me to go

I can't be by myself
but there is no one else
and well it hurts to know someone else
takes your lips
but I cannot forget how hard I cried
when I discovered you had lied
when you said I could never hurt like this

Baby it's you
that kept my feet on the ground
I thought that I could choose
if I always wanted you around
Darling and I think that we need time apart
and I think the time has come for me to go

Cause I'm weary
I'm so weary
I told you I'd be there
I'm broken
I'm so broken
but I'm here
It's painful
It's so painful
I told you I'd release our secrets
I cannot afford to hear
Secrets I cannot afford to hear, no no


11.I Hold Her

Smokey is my apple
and green are my eyes
Silent as snowfall
I whisper goodbyes
Farewell to the child that I used to be
I hold her, she's having my baby

The wolf and the lion
have asked me to play
though she told me not to,
I went anyway
I hide all the matches
the truth at my feet
I hold her, she's having my baby

The cream in my tea
smells like something to me
and they say that I'm healed by the day
and the message I give
is I fail will to live
I'm afraid that I'm losing my way

Learning in heaven
my destiny lies
when she read my story
she didn't mention that night
I love you my baby
I don't want to leave
But I hold her she's having my baby

I hold her, she's having
I hold her, she's having
I hold her she's having my baby


12.Confessions Of A Teenage Girl

I'm just a girl
With good intentions
I don't cry to get attention
most of the time

I'm just a girl
I do some damage
I use my gender, to my advantage
is this a crime
if there is a time, I have a need and alibi
I don't have to try, its built in
it comes with the package ahhhhhh
along with sugar and spice and everything nice
the power I posses to entice
its built in
it comes with the package ahhhhhhh

thats why I love being a teenage girl
feeling confined where I fit in the world
I'm in bloom, I'm in bloom
and if ever I'm caught doing what I should not
they'll assume, I'm an innocent girl

I'm just a girl
I keep my promise
I won't bite
completely harmless, most of the time

I'm just a girl
my wrath is tender
bat my eyes
in the surrender
is this a crime
if there is a time I have a need and alibi
I don't have to try, its built in
it comes with the package ahhhhhhhh
along with sugar and spice and everything nice
the power I posses to entice
its built in, it comes with the package ahhhhhh

thats why I love being a teenage girl
feeling confined where I fit in the world
I'm in bloom. I'm in bloom
and if ever I'm caught doing what I should not
they'll assume I'm an innocent girl
