The Little Stevies Attention Shoppers Lyrics
1.Accidentally

The sign of when you were born
Goes perfectly with mine did you know it
Why would you even try to deny it
The sky says so then that's enough for me to want to try it

Accidentally if I ever found myself in your hands
You know I'd like it, I wouldn't ever skip by it
Baby if you ever were to lay your hand out
You know I'd take it, I wouldn't ever reach past it

The feeling has conquered all of me
Something I can't shake, just can't get past it
The pressure is building up it seems
The futures not what I had always thought it would be
Push me a little harder
22 and ready to move through this faster
And it could end up a disaster
Things don't always stay how we've always done them

Accidentally if I ever found myself in your hands
You know I'd like it, I wouldn't ever skip by it
Baby if you ever were to lay your hand out
You know I'd take it, I wouldn't ever reach past it

Some things, you just can't choose them, you just can't lose
them
(are you gonna loose it baby, if you haven't used it lately)
They don't let you have a say
Some things, you just can't choose them, you just can't lose
them
(are you sure you're gonna loose it baby)
They don't let you have a say

The sign of when you were born
Goes perfectly with mine did you know it
Why would you even try to deny it
The sky says so then that's enough for me to want to try it

Accidentally if I ever found myself in your hands
You know I'd like it, I wouldn't ever skip by it
Baby if you ever were to lay your hand out
You know I'd take it, I wouldn't ever reach past it
Baby if you ever wanted me to say it
I really do love you, I wouldn't ever look past you


2.The Day We Went Away

The day we went away
Feels like only yesterday
We flew for hours until
We climbed the walls that couldn't keep us still

The day that we touched down
When that beast glided to the ground
The things we thought we knew
Left as fast as we flew

The day that we arrived
As we descended from the sky
Oh what a sunny place
Filled with hopes and dreams for us to chase

And we did amazing things
We finally spread our wings
We can do anything I'm sure
Since the day we went away

The day we looked around
And stumbled across what we had found
Well we searched high and low
That's when we lost all control

The day we found ourselves
We were hiding on a shelf
Of an antique clothing store
Folded tight and in the draw

The day that we came home
And realised how much we had grown
Sometime to relax
But all I wanna do is go back

We did amazing things
We finally spread our wings
We can do anything
We went through ups and downs
But we turned this ship around
And it's straight ahead from here on in
Since the day we went away

The day I saw the light
And knew that I was worth hype
When I finally realized
That I'd no longer compromise

The day I understood
That I would swap can't for could
Cause when its all said and done
Well, this is suppose to be fun

How did I stumble on
I'm singing a new song
And it sounds better than
Everything that went before
Cause now I want it more
It's straight ahead from here on in
Since the day we went away


3.Feel It

I've packed my suitcase, I'm leaving home with nothing.
It's big enough to fit some clothes, a toothbrush, and some of
your loving
I've thrown away my car keys I won't be needing them where I'm
going
I'll leave this love behind, time to grow up, time to try and
survive

No thinking in my head, I wanna feel it in my heart
No thinking in my head

In my heart
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
In my heart
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
Wanna feel it
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
Until this story is made up

I've got a hunch this could be something special
I could be wrong but everything I've got is what I'm throwing
And that's a lot, into the fire and the flames are growing
The biggest gamble won't be long now, hold your breath I'm
following

No thinking in my head, I wanna feel it in my heart
No thinking in my head

In my heart
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
In my heart
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
Wanna feel it
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
Until this story is made up

We've done our best, we've put our heart and soul in
Where this will end is just a guess there is no way of knowing
If I could ask the stars one question it is where am I going?
But the answer is a longing, that keeps me alive

No thinking in my head, I wanna feel it in my heart x 3
No thinking in my head

In my heart
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
In my heart
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
Wanna feel it
(Don't want to think it in my head, wanna feel it in my heart)
Until this story is made up


4.Because I Have You All

Trying to work out what I'm gonna do
Feeling guilty wasting time with you
We are living in a time of change
My birthday fell on that on that brilliant day

You came around to watch it on the tv
We sat hand in hand witnessing history
All our fears ran out through the front door
Our tears raced each other to the floor

I'm not scared of anything because I have you all
No, I'm not scared of anything life throws at me anymore

We've been praying for the hardest rain
To someday take this killing heat away
I feel ashamed because I have ignored
Until that weather walked up to my back door

I'm not scared of anything because I have you all
No, I'm not scared of anything life throws at me anymore

We work so hard for our cars and toys
To keep them breathing so they don't get bored
I've been thinking bout the future more
How we keep on doing things we've done before

I'm not scared of anything because I have you all
No, I'm not scared of anything life throws at me anymore x2


5.No Button

How should I react, when I can't turn the clock back
But I need to, cause I need you
Just a little girl, can't be left in this world
I'm not ready, I'm not willing

So I'm, running so fast from back where I came
Hoping to make you good again
There is no button that I could press
To sweep you safe from this mess

Who will tuck me in, who can I trust to listen
You're getting older
I spent so much time proving I was just fine
On my own but now I'm not sure, so I'm

Running so fast from back where I came
Trying to make you good again
There is no button that I could press
To sweep you safe from this mess
Can't we go back, can't we exchange
Was it me who made you this way
I know it's selfish but I need you here
How could the world spin

I'm not strong enough to carry what you hold effortlessly
I'm not old enough to take on this responsibility

So I'm, running so fast from back where I came
Trying to make you good again
There is no button that I could press
To sweep you safe from this mess
Well I would go back, I would exchange
Did I accidentally make you this way
I know it's selfish but I need you here
How could the world spin if you were to leave


6.In the Sky

In the sky I finally wrote you a song,
Strangely it's been in my head all along,
But the words were just wrong,
Every time that you cry my world explodes,
Shattering all my dreams and all the hopes I held so close,

Call on me when you're afraid to say it's over,
Tumbling tragically over and under,

Love comes shrouded, secrets, whispers and tears,
Morning finds you curled up shining and clear,
When the rain disappears,
Picture you like a child lost far from home,
Funny how it's me who feels alone when you go home,

Call on me when you're afraid to say it's over,
Tumbling tragically over and under,

When this is over love - and it will be soon -
We'll fly away from here, far away,

In the sky I finally wrote you a song,
Call on me when you're afraid to say it's over,
In the sky I finally wrote you a song


7.Leave It With Me

I've been thinking of the ways to say
But ways to say don't come that easy
Words they rattle round my head for days
They never form a line to please me
So I lie awake all night again
She says this isn't healthy
This mind and mouth do not connect like friends
Besides I could be acting selfish

Hide it, Inside, Don't wish, Too hard
Place it where you can't see, down deep a leave it be
Find it, Right now, Speak it, Let down
Take a breath and set it free, Fish it out and leave it with me

Has the passion all but gone and fade
At this rate he'll see right through me
I'm up so early and I'm gone again
Can't work out who should feel more guilty
No eyes have shut here now for several nights
Can you survive without sleeping
Could you hear a pin drop in the night
Hiding here it feels less needy

Hide it, Inside, Don't wish, Too hard
Place it where you can't see, down deep a leave it be
Find it, Right now, Speak it, Let down
Take a breath and set it free, Fish it out and leave it with me

I can't connect it
I can't project this
I just can't write it down
I can't forget this
I won't lose perspective
I can't make a sound

Morning calls after dark of night
Today we could set the sun shining
Embrace the light like it's an easy friend
Welcome toast with cups of coffee

Hide it, Inside, Don't wish, Too hard
Place it where you can't see, down deep a leave it be
Find it, Right now, Speak it, Let down
Take a breath and set it free, Fish it out and leave it with me
Leave it with me


8.Love (Love Love Love)

Never thought that I would stand a chance
To grab you amongst all my friends
Now I'm laughing and I don't understand
Why I spent so much time in this strange land
Even though I said I wrote two songs for you
That didn't scare you off all too soon
But I'd be crazy to show them to you
Cos that's the last thing that I have above you

I wanna love love love you this time
You can take take this heart of mine
We can dance dance til we're too tired
And hold each other until we reach sunrise

I wonder how this story will be retold
What's the ending, who wins and who falls
I've been at this place one time before
I've lost for not knowing, now I know it all and more
Call me when you have a night at home
I'll be your guest, I'll be whatever you want
Say farewell and leave it just as it is
A beautiful thing that doesn't need naming

I wanna love love love you this time
You can take take this heart of mine
We can dance dance til we're too tired
And hold each other until we reach sunrise

You can test me see what I'm like
See how much I'll give away til I lie
And you will have yourself such a surprise
When you realise how much we're alike


9.Sister

Come here I want to tell you this
Listen good cause I don't want you to miss
Its important what I tell you, I'm four years older than you
I know more than you its just how it is

Now be sure you take care of yourself
Don't drive too fast, park under lights, always use seatbelts
Don't swim in murky water, I'll leave the outside light on for
you
Walk behind me if you need some relief

And if you do decide one day you've had enough
I'll say that's ok, just as long as you're here all the time
For me to find
Cause I rely
More than you realise

Choose your partner carefully
Good looks and charms don't mean maturity
It's my job to take care of you, but from boys I can't shelter
you
Choose someone who you can talk to for years

Make sure you go and see the world
Travel will ensure you're not left a little girl
Get lost and lose yourself, get found and come home safe
Without you to protect I'd disappear

And if you do decide one day you've had enough
I'll say that's ok, just as long as you're here all the time
For me to find
Cause I rely
More than you realise

I don't mean to mother you, cramp your style or smother you
But if something were to happen, I couldn't find another you

And if you do decide one day you've had enough
I'll say that's ok, just as long as you're here all the time
For me to find
Cause I rely
More than you realise
All the time
For me to find
Cause I rely
More than you realise


10.History Like Mine

I want a new love
I want to feel like a belong to someone
I want to trust you
I want to be proven that I am wrong

But with a history like mine
I'll be used up one more time
And then I'll meet someone like you
Who does the same thing that I do

Thank you for all the dances that we had last night
Know that you can steal me away anytime that you like
Now I'm scared that I have fallen right into your light
A place where I swore that I wouldn't fall one more time in my
life

Will you chase me?
Or was I so easy to get that you won't
Am I amazing?
Or am I just another name you've crossed off

With a history like mine
I'll take it all in my stride
And then I'll meet another you
Who does the same thing that I do

Thank you for all the dances that we had last night
Know that you can steal me away anytime that you like
Now I'm scared that I have fallen right into your light
A place where I swore that I wouldn't fall one more time in my
life

Go on try me on for size
Go on give it your best try
Please open up your eyes, because

With a history like mine
I'll leave you behind
And then I'll meet somebody new
And wonder what I ever saw in you

Thank you for all the dances that we had last night
Know that you can steal me away anytime that you like
Now I'm scared that I have fallen right into your light
A place where I swore that I wouldn't fall one more time

Thank you for holding my hand ever so tight
You've appeared in all my dreams for the last seven nights
Now I'm scared that all that wasted time that I've let fly by
Was the universe trying to tell me,
That I don't need another you in my life


11.Leap of Faith

You've only been gone two days
I've already checked your photo to make sure you look the same
Could you be thinking like me?
If you're not I'm worried that I'll want you still

Will you stick by me through dark old days
Will you care for me when I'm sick and grey
All these questions well no one can say
It's a leap of faith
I'm leaping with faith

Trying so hard to be good
Trying to compose myself the way that I think I should
I'm hoping you won't see
That I am jealous and I am stubborn, emotional and weak

How can I tell that you'll love me the most
What if one day you just decide you don't, well
I can't say that I know you won't
It's a leap of faith
I'm leaping with faith

And I'm so damn scared, that I'll get lost behind you
And I won't be heard, I'll lose myself behind here
I need to trust your word
Cause if you let me down, I may not come back around

You just told me you might leave
I'm sinking through the floor I don't want you to see these
tears
I'll pretend I never cared
Cause I'm much happier alone, no I'm not scared

This heart is fragile it can't take much more
So I've been thinking well, what's the point

It's a leap of faith
I'm leaping with faith
It's a leap of faith
I'm leaping with faith
