Volume 1

Dayna Manning Volume 1 Lyrics
1.Half The Man

Shakes bad thoughts out of his head
As he smokes a dead man's cigarette

Can't bring himself to get out of bed
'Cause he likes the thoughts running around in his head
...in his head

And he only loves what he can see
And he only wishes he could be
Half the man that others see

To love himself and let it be

Can't quench the thirst when you don't have the answer
Can't come out first when you're not the better dancer

Take it as you will and take it as you must
But who is she to say what fills your heart with lust
...with lust

And he only loves what he could be
And he only wishes he could see
Half the man and let it be
To love the self that others see

And he only loves what he can see
And he only wishes he could be
Half the man that others see
To love himself and let it be


2.My Addiction

Something about him makes you feel alive
And something about him makes the sun shine
I feel it

Being around him makes you want to smile
And being around him makes life worth while
I feel it
Help me feed my addiction

He'll make you feel like you can do anything
And he'll make you see the good side to everything
I feel it
He is my addiction
Help me feed my addiction

But when things decide to change
Remind me to stay the same

'Cause I'm waiting for you at the end of the road
And I'll find you standing alone

And the best feeling in the world
Is knowing that you're his girl

He'll make you feel like you've never felt before
And he'll make you see there's something you'd die for
I feel it
He is my addiction
Help me beat my addiction

But when things decide to change
Remind him to stay the same

'Cause I'm waiting for you at the end of the road
And I'll find you standing alone
'Cause I'm waiting...


3.Under The Hill

You said that you'd be there when I called
You said that you'd be there
And now I feel lonely as hell
...as hell

And it's good to hear you're miserable
It's good to know that I'm your cure
...your cure

And I heard you were feeling under the weather
Well as long as you're alive you'll live forever

And we'll meet there in the morning to see
What everyone is dying to be
What the hell is wrong with me
That's nothing like I want to be

And I heard you were feeling under the weather
Well as long as you're alive you'll live forever

And I'll see you there in the morning
Where the voices, they know my name
...my name

And I heard you were feeling under the weather
Well as long as you're alive you'll live forever

And I heard you were living under a hill
I understand, you got that time to fill


4.And That Was Done

Who knows what's going on inside his head
The grass is growing right where I am
The king has made his dent
I wonder where she was sent

'Cause I am gone
He was lost
She was sad
The only thing she had

You said you'd walk to the end of the world
Too bad the world doesn't end
You said yourself that you were impressed
And that was done

He was gone
She was lost
I was sad
The only thing I had

He could see me sleeping
Curled up in a ball
He would walk around the room
To watch himself on the wall

She was gone
I was lost
He was glad
The only thing he had

And that was done


5.My Kind

All the empty packs of cigarette still lie on the floor
Makes me think of all my past regrets thing I thought I
learned before

But the things that I regret most in life are the things I did
not do
Like how I wish I gave you a kiss before I last left you

Why do I do this?
Why do I do that?
Why do I still miss
Being at your house in your room in your mind
Being at your house in your room in your mind
Baby you know you're my kind

When I'm laughing at myself for thinking this way
reminds me that I once cared
When we're laughing about technology in the 90's I'll be
scared

Why do I do this?
Why do I do that?
Why do I still miss
Being at your house in your room in your mind
Being at your house in your room in your mind
Baby you know you're my kind
...my kind

All the time is running away
I am still running away from your kind in my mind

Being at your house in your room in your mind
Baby you know you're the kind I try to find to unwind to
tell what's on my mind
You're my kind you're the kind
That messes with my mind


6.Hippy Song

He came up to me in all of his glory
Tried to make me see the point to his story

Can I help you maybe remove yourself from the wall
So you lost your baby and I can't help it at all

She was all over your back your best friend's name was
Jack
Caught them in the act that unlawful act

Listen to me
She don't wanna be
The one to see
You go down

Can I help you sir to find a new wife
Can I help you sir to find a new life

Can I help you guy so maybe you could choose
Don't you be so shy you got nothing left to lose

Take it from me
She don't want to be
The one to see
You go down

He decided she would pay and shot her the next day
What else could he say it was the only way
...to hurt her like she hurt him


7.A Walk On The Moon

A walk on the beach, a cool breeze in the night
You'll never discover the finer things in life
A million dollar baby and a million dollar wife

Today there's a heaven tomorrow there's not
Five, six and seven are tied in a knot
You stepped in the weba nd now you're caught

I meant to meet you in that small green room
With three chairs and a table, three forks and a spoon
Someday I'll take you for a walk on the moon

Don't tell me who will stay or who will walk away
Don't tell me who to love I'll love you anyway
I'll live my life the way I want to day by day

You have the power to stop the time
I fell down the hill in my nursery rhyme
You have your wisdom and I've learned mine

It is a symbol, the man's dress tie
A symbol of manhood in the dreams we pass by
I cannot stare you right in the eye

Don't tell me who will stay or who will walk away
Don't tell me who to love I'll love you anyway
I'll live my life the way I want to day by day

Someday I'll take you for a walk on the moon


8.Gold(The Fire Song)

His one desire was to light me on fire
'Cause I wasn't worth it 'cause silver's my cover
But I have seen it all

I like to hit him when he acts up
He hits me back but that's what I want
'Cause I have felt it all

He's a monster that brings me flowers
A prince that drags me down
An ogre that blows me kisses

I wonder who is gold

Says I'm annoying and that I have no talent
I think I'll ignore him and the voice inside my head
'Cause I have heard it all
And I've felt it all
I've seen it all
I can take it all
I wonder who is gold


9.I Want

I want a big red car
And I want a fancy new guitar
I want a house with a big back deck
And I want to come home with a big paycheck

But I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you
And I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you

I want to be a star
And I want to be of age to get into the bar
I want to ride a Harley Davidson
And I want to live in a great big mansion

But I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you
And I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you

I want to sleep for hours and hours
I want a garden full of beautiful sunflowers
I want to go to B.C.
And I want to be friends with Tom Petty

But I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you
And I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you

I want someone to grant my wishes
I want a boy who'll blow me kisses
I want a friend that I can care for
And I want to find a love that's not so painful

But I can't have everything I want
'Cause I can't have you
And I can't have anything I want
'Cause I only want you


10.The End Of The Game

He thinks he's happy he's just scared of change
It's trendy not to be trendy at that certain stage
You can only hate the ones you truly love
But he fell so deep he can't get up

It's the end of the game
And he's immune to pain
But he's not gonna cry
'Cause no one's ever died
Of a broken heart

I often think he doesn't know love
But I thought it over and he truly does
Remember to never say goodbye just say see ya later
He's gonna have to fly through life without her

It's the end of the game
And he's immune to pain
It's the end of the game
And I'm immune to pain
But he's not gonna cry
'Cause no one's ever died
Of a broken heart

No one's ever died
Of a broken heart


11.Coincidence?

Saw a man sitting by the side of the road
Saying how he's never done what he's been told
And the wating is killing him for all of his dreams
Will never be as close as they seem

And he walks into the light
Discovering what he feels is right
And there standing in the light
He finds a point in life

Saw a woman sitting in her car
I could tell she was wishing on a star
And to find her dreams she wouldn't have to travel far
They just didn't seem as close as they are

And she walks into the light
Discovering what she feels is right
And there standing in the light
She finds a point in life

And they met upon a summers day
Neither of them had gone out of their way
To find someone whom they could say
Brightened up each and every day

And they walked into the light
Discovering what they felt was right
And there standing in the light
They found a common life


12.Simple Plan

I have a simple plan
About a woman and a man
For you to hear

They are holding hands
Picture it if you can
My dear

Don't wanna cause you any trouble
Just wondering if you'd be able
To be the one

You could set the table
And hook up the cable
While I have your son

Wouldn't that be wonderful
Yes it'd be wonderful
To be your wife
The biggest part
Of your whole life

Once in awhile
Comes someone who makes you smile
For no reason at all

For you I'd walk the mile
Meet you at the end of the aisle
So please give me a call

Wouldn't that be wonderful
Yes it'd be wonderful
To have you here
To have you there
And everywhere

Now wouldn't that be wonderful
Yes it'd be wonderful
To be your wife
The biggest part
Of your whole life
