1.In Love With A Girl
Lyricist:Gavin DeGraw
Writer(s):Gavin DeGraw
So many people gonna say that they want you,
To try to get you thinking they really care,
But there's nothing like the warmth of the one
who has put in the time and you know he's gonna be there,
Back your border when she knows someone crossed it,
Don't let nobody put you down, who you're with
Take the pain of protecting your name, from the crutch to the
cane to the high wire
I'm in love with a girl who knows me better,
Fell for the woman just when I met her,
Took my sweet time when I was bitter,
Someone understands,
And she knows how to treat a fella right,
Give me that feeling every night,
Wants to make love when I wanna fight,
Now someone understand me,
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
Out the many broken backdoors and windows,
Through the valley of the love of the lost,
Is a hole that is cut through the souls
falling down from the thrones without leaving any windows,
But you find in a piece for the moment,
The moment was over in time,
Then it's gone the hit and run the tactless one has a short life
I'm in love with a girl who knows me better,
Fell for the woman just when I met her,
Took my sweet time when I was bitter,
Someone understands,
And she knows how to treat a fella right,
Give me that feeling every night,
Wants to make love when I wanna fight,
Now someone understand me,
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
Gonna tell you what you do to think you practice what you
preach,
Now I know there's nothing we can't reach,
'cause the heart can't erase once it finds a place to be warm
and welcome,
To be held in shelter
I'm in love with a girl who knows me better,
Fell for the woman just when I met her
Took my sweet time when I was bitter
Someone understands,
And she knows how to treat a fella right
Give me that feeling every night
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
Now someone understands me
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
Who knows me better
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
Now someone understand me
2.Next To Me (Wait A Minute Sister)
Lyricist:Gavin DeGraw
Writer(s):Gavin DeGraw
Listen up destiny
I know you want to get pressed to me
So don't be such a stone
When I call you on the phone
Or I won't be using that number again
Maybe what you had was broke
You want to get high and they don't
So I had a drink
'Cause it helped me think
Now you say I've been drinking too much
But my hands start shaking
And my heart starts quaking
Like a nightmare naked in school
And I want to tell you
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
Just give me a chance and see
But you won't even get next to me
What you want to do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me
Once I get you in my grip
Follow my eyes to your hips
Don't you pull away
You've done it every day
Just stay
Why don't you stay, why don't you stay baby
Put away your old disguise
You don't want no other guys
We're having so much fun
I know you shouldn't run
But you run, you just run
You just run baby
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
Just give me a chance and see
But you won't even get next to me
What you want to do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me
Me here
Heart in hand
Offering
What I can
Patience
Running thin
Come on girl
Let me in
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
Just give me a chance and see
But you won't even get next to me
What you want to do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
give me a chance and see
Oh, but you won't even get next to me
What you want to do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me
You won't even get next to me
Why, why, why, why, why, why...
Wait a minute, oh~
You won't even get next to me
3.Cheated On Me
I'm love sick somewhere tonight
I'm love sick somewhere tonight
I don't need writing on the wall
I felt it for so long
Am I even on your mind
Or are you now in
Someone else's eyes
someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think you cheated on me
I've been this love sick before
I've felt just like this before
There was another just like you
I loved her for so long
But I had poison on my mind
And I drove her into
Someone else's eyes
someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think she cheated on me
I've said I've had this stage before
But I left an open door
For this to walk into my life
And maybe I suspect too much
But this is hard for me to trust
When I'm all wound up inside
I just drive you often into
Someone else's eyes
someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I was never easy to please
I think you cheated on me
You cheated on me
I think you cheated on me
4.I Have You To Thank
Whenever I see you I need more
And want you to stay 'til the end
One look at that smile and I'm all yours
Will you just smile at me again
I have you to thank for making me so
So hard to please because you treated me so
Good that no one else could hold your make-up
Because of you girl I never want to break up
The difference I'm feeling in my heart
Is the difference of loving or not
And under the stars and moon and sun
Is the perfect becoming of one
I have you to thank for making me so
So hard to please because you treated me so
Good that no one else could hold your make-up
Because of you girl I never want to break up
If I told you that I loved like an ace
Then I'd be lying 'cause I've made some mistakes
But I'm trying with perfect faith
When I let you in
I began to win
And now I'm just all gold
After all I've done
And the road I've run
I want to thank you
I want to thank you
I have you to thank for making me so
So hard to please because you treated me so
Good that no one else could hold your make-up
Because of you girl I never want to break up
I have you to thank for making me so
So hard to please because you treated me so
Good that no one else could hold your make-up
Because of you girl Because of you girl
Because of you girl I never want to break up
All I do when I think about it
Is thank you baby
Thank you baby
All I do when I think about it
Is thank you baby
I just want to thank you baby
I just want to
Thank you
5.Cop Stop
When your feathers are soaked and your eyes are too bloody to
see,
and you pulled every punch that you had but there's one that you
need,
then you've waited too long,
there's a hole in your heart,
and all you've become is emotionally overrun
Wishing wells were made to echo a dime,
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
the consequences are you keep on relying,
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
you've become a run and hide refugee,
baby I'm a cop, stop,
put up your hands and surrender to me
You're gonna get hooked if there's anything left I can do,
you've already disarmed it's your lasting alarm I pursue,
you can loosen those fists,
c'mon blow me a kiss,
you've been roughed up enough to deserve some relief from your
troubles,
so I'm coming in
Wishing wells were made to echo a dime,
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
the consequences are you keep on relying,
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
you've become a run and hide refugee,
baby I'm a cop stop,
put up your hands and surrender to me
Otherwise, I would never tell you what to do despite,
any indecision though I know I'm right,
arguing was always my forte,
and one thing I can say is I won't tell you lies,
or treat you like a rental car like other guys,
and if you think I'm crazy find an alibi,
cause you will need some evidence to show
Wishing wells were made to echo a dime,
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
the consequences are you keep on relying,
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
you've become a run and hide refugee,
baby I'm a cop, stop,
put up your hands and surrender to me
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
Baby I'm a cop, stop, put up your hands and surrender to me
( I'm a cop stop, baby I'm a cop stop)
Baby I'm a cop, stop, put up your hands and surrender to me
6.Young Love
There's no need to beg babe, that's my open pocket
You take the money from me, I can scrounge
You gave me a fever that will not come down, oh babe
You're a young woman cast aside
I should side, left on the side walk of my lonely life
For the young lovers, taking the hill
One plants the flag while the other is killed
When the wine pours we raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough
Young love is innocent, young love is us
What did I get into
Now everything is untrue, oh
Your eyes tell the lies of the lines that you said
And now that I love you, oh oh
I wish we never met
Why wait? Woman I'm taking risk here that no one dares
And you're scared, scared of the bottom, afraid of the stairs
For the young lovers, taking the hill
One plants the flag while the other is killed
When the wine pours we raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough
Young love is innocent, young love is us
Someone, I said some one has fell in love with a face
And it scares me to let it go
Still want it even though I get less than she takes
For the young lovers, taking the hill
One plants the flag while the other is killed
When the wine pours we raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough
Young love is innocent
For the young lovers, taking the hill
One plants the flag while the other is killed
When the wine pours we raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice, young love is tough
Young love is innocent, young love is us
7.Medicate The Kids
Tell 'em, 'Say no to drugs'
'Substances make you dumb'
Then you say, 'Give 'em some'
Are you the Victim
Of this experience
Child experiment
Teacher's predicament?
You're in the system
And if you don't walk the line
You can walk the plank
You older brother (government)
Wants to control your mind
You're more useful blank
Medicate the kids
Feathers turn to quills
Pump 'em full of training fluids
Powders and pills
There's nothing you can't flush out
And nothing you can't kill
Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
I'm gonna tell you,
'No way,
This ain't fair play,
Just don't medicate me'
Tell 'em, 'Say no to drugs'
'Substances make you dumb'
Unless you get 'em from
Someone who loves you
One who knows best for you
Paid for those tests for you
Knows how to get you through
When it's above you
And you can't get on top
Cause it's high to climb,
You hear them saying,
'Don't make me call the cops'
Every other time
Medicate that kids
Feathers turn to quills
Pump 'em full of training fluids
Powders and pills
There's nothing you can't flush out
And nothing you can't kill
Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
I'm gonna tell you,
'No way,
This ain't fair play,
Just don't medicate me'
And there's a long line
Flowing from prescription aisles
Filed through legal means
So we can alter the child
For his protection
Tie him to extension cords,
This is the age of discipline
Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
8.Relative
A flashlight
Isn't quite sunlight
But any light at all seems bright
When you're looking in the dark
A wet Dream
Isn't the real thing
It isn't really anything
But at least it makes a spark
Yes, it does
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is
It's all about the way we recieve it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet,
the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood,
and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
Pre-made isn't quite home made
But pre-made with a home name
Is almost just the same
Your girlfriend
Isn't your best friend
But any friend is best when
You're freezing in the rain
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is
It's all about the way we recieve it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet,
the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood,
and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
You're either underweight or you're unfit
Underdressed or over zipped
Too social or you're just too shy
Too depressed or you're too high
Night to day
Day to night
Rich to poor
Black or white
All is relative
Everything is relative
All is relative
It's all about the way we recieve it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet,
the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood,
and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
All is relative
Everything is relative
All is relative
All is relative
9.She Holds A Key
This is the kind of affair to make you dance about
But there's something to say for the things
You wouldn't regularly let out
At least this chase
Makes you feel new
She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
She is begging her man
Listen you sinner
I'm sinning too
Just wait until the darkness falls so I can sin with you
You've run through the whole gamut of gameplay
the headtrip parade
Without any experience
You become curious prey
So change your position
This decision you're making is digging a hole
Oh, and where you're headed only heaven knows
She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
She is begging her man
Listen you sinner
I'm sinning too
Just wait until the darkness falls so I can sin with you
So, set out your plan,
Break down your walls
Count what you're blessed with
you've counted them all
it's something to say
but you have to search
you might not believe but
Believe me it works
Believe me it works
She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
She is begging her man
Listen you sinner
I'm sinning too
Just wait until the darkness falls so I can sin with you
She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
She is begging her man
Listen you sinner
I'm sinning too
Just wait until the darkness falls so I can sin
She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
Listen everybody
Listen
Listen everybody
So I can sin
So I can sin
10.Untamed
The letters you wrote me have hollow point headers
If you think you've got it like that find somebody better
You said i need fixing, you numbered the stages
but i won't be living in one of your cages
open your mind and understand
when you're hard on me, it's not what i need
we were meant to be untamed
I'm on my feet, wanna run free
because nobody's taming me.
I'm out from the narrow protective container
designed to be opened with your childish behavior
'cuz you're not the critic of personal purpose
and I'm just not willin' to community service
i don't know why you lay it on
when you're hard on me, it's not what i need
we were meant to be untamed
I'm on my feet, wanna run free
because nobody's taming me
you say that i should lend a shoulder
right now, 'cuz your whole world is blowing up
go ahead, but i won't be your soldier
'cuz you're the one who started up,
you're the one who started up
when you're hard on me, it's not what i need
we were meant to be untamed
I'm on my feet, wanna run free
because nobody's taming me
when you're hard on me, it's not what i need
we were meant to be untamed
I'm on my feet, wanna run free
because nobody's taming me
we were meant, we were meant to be untamed.
we were meant, we were meant to be
we were meant to be untamed
we were meant, we were meant to be
we were meant to be untamed
oh, ohhh.
11.Let It Go
I can't live without you
Set my goals around you
Takes a little extra time
But it all works out
You're a shining ember
I'll be shining armor
Just look up into my eyes
I won't let you down
And I'll always be here
Yes, I'll always be here
Let it go
Settle into me
Let it go
Let it all go
Except for me
I'm the one you found
Just hold on
Hold onto me now
Why don't we play hooky?
We could both get lucky
Better to get lucky than to go to work today
We don't have to shower
We won't wait in traffic
Take our daily panic and we'll put it all away
And we'll always be near
We should always be near
Let it go
Settle into me
Let it go
Let it all go
Except for me
I'm the one you found
Just hold on
Hold onto me now
Just let it go
Settle into me
Let it go
Let it all go
Except for me
I'm the one you found
Just hold on
Hold onto me now
Don't you know you're the one for me
After all, anyone can see
Let it go
Let it all go
Let it go
12.We Belong Together
We belong together,
like the open seas and shores.
wedded by the planet force,
The hammer may strike,
be dead on the ground.
a nail to my hand,
a cross on his crown.
we're done if, who we're undone,
finished if who we are incomplete.
as one we are everything,
we are everything we need.
we belong together,
like the open seas and shores,
wedded by the planet force,
we've all been spoken for
What good is a life, with no one to share,
the light of the moon, the honor of a swear.
we can try to live the way in which you speak,
taste the milk of your mother earth's love,
spread the word of consciences you see,
we are everything we need
We belong together,
like the open seas and shores.
wedded by the planet force,
we've all been spoken for.
We belong together,
like the open seas and shores.
wedded by the planet force,
we've all been spoken for.
All this indecision,
all this independent strength,
still, we've got our hearts on save,
we've got our hearts on safe.
