1.Hands On Me
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Stephan Jenkins
Two, three
I first saw you at the video exchange
I know my heart and it will never change
This temp work would be all right if you call me
You call me
I lie awake at night for you and I pray
We cross the deepest oceans, cargo across the sea
And if you don't believe me just put your hands on me
And all the constellations shine down for us to see
And if you don't believe me just put your hands on me
The subway radiates with heat
We've barely met and still I cross the street to your door
I lie awake at night, for you I pray
We cross the deepest oceans, cargo across the sea
And if you don't believe me just put your hands on me
And all the constellations shine down for us to see
And if you don't believe me just put your hands on me
Someday when our stories are told
They'll tell of a love like this
When our descendants are all growing old
A 1000 years we'll be singing
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
We climb Tibetan mountains where we can barely breathe
I see the Dalai Lama, I feel him blessing me
And all the constellations shine down for us to see
And if you don't believe me just put your hands on me
(Hands on me, hands on me, hands on me, hands on me)
I first saw you at the video exchange
2.Spring Street
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Linda Perry
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
I was heading down to Spring Street
With a suitcase in my hand
And filled with love and life and grand delusions
I knew you'd understand
And I left you by the stairwell
And your eyes were wet with tears
Mother, you knew you had to let me go
Even after all these years
And we sing, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And she said, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And walk on, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
You're alright, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And I found myself a new life
And I've been living with some friends
And we hold on to dreams and live like kings
Like the days will never end
And I left him by the statue
And his eyes were filled with tears
Lover, you knew you had to let me go
Even after all these years
And we sing, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And he said, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
We'll walk on, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
You're alright, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And everything changes and friends become strangers
And what we hold so dear slips away
The past keeps on fading but I'll never forget you
It's hard to see that you're a part of me even when we have to
say
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And walk on, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And we sing, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
You're alright, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And I moved out of the city
To start a family of my own
And when I look into my daughter's eyes
And I don't feel so alone
And as I walk her down to Spring Street
And she holds onto my hand
Mother, you knew my eyes would be wet with tears
And now I understand
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And I said, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Walk on, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And thank you, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na)
Walk on
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na)
We're alright
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na)
You can hold on, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
3.My Best
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton
We scream and shout and try to make it last
Though it didn't work out, I don't love you any less
My lover or friend, I won't ever tell
Our secret's safe, an unspoken citadel
And in these broken times, well, it's so easy to forget
so I sing to remind, upon my shoulder you can rest
'Cause I'll always give you my best
A sidewalk's path leads me to you
Though we don't look back, we hold on to a truth
And in these broken times I promise I will not forget
Though you're not mine upon your shoulder I can rest
'Cause you always give me your best
It's like I promised you
It's like you never left
It's like you never left
I know it's been so long, I can't ever seem to forget
All it takes is a song and I could swear I hear your steps
Down the hall that goes up past that leaves an ache, it's never
left
'Cause I gave you my best
It's like you never left
It's like you never left
We scream and shout and try to make it last
4.Come Undone
Lyricist：Stephan Douglas Jenkins
I've seen myself in a thousand faces, strung out on life's path
I would add up what you mean to me but I cannot do the math
And this fashionista's garden party, well, I had enough of that
'Cause the only one I come undone for is you
Yes, the only one I come undone
But I'm a special lover sometimes but you only touch a ghost
I'm a sycophantic courtier with an elegant repose
Needless to say you're the one that I need the most
'Cause the only one I come undone for is you
Yes, the only one I come undone for is you
Well, the only one I come undone for is you
I know I'm done
And now I see the truth
I know I'm done
Come undone for you
You've been gone for so long
Waiting here for you
You've been gone for so long
Come undone for you
There are people in this lifetime that we should never meet
'Cause to be here now without you, well, my life's so incomplete
I'll tell you what you mean to me, maybe then you'll see
'Cause the only one I come undone for is you
Yes, the only one I come undone for is you
Oh, the only one I come undone for is you, no, no
5.The One
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Stephan Jenkins, Linda Perry
Holiday and I come home
I hope to see this boy I know
I can't wait for us to be alone
Flipping through the radio
We sing along to the Indie show
The songs, they play me more than I can say
In the tape I made you
Hope you think of me when it plays through
I'm kind of sad now that it's done
And you think our times were free
And all the ways you say to me
Sweet versions of let's wait and see
But you're always a golden boy
And I'm the girl that you enjoy
My parents say, 'Isn't he a gifted son？'
Time is always passing by
And still I have to wonder why
You can't come to tell me I'm the one
Summer goes and we have grown
We have our friends live on our own
Still I'm not the girl you want me to be
Say gravity can bend the time
Funny I always liked your mind
This whole thing is crushing me
But you're always a golden boy
In this girl's heart that you destroyed
You smile at me and then have your fun
Time is always passing by
Still I give you another try
And hope that you will see that I'm the one
You say you're scared to get too close
Come, let's see how it goes
See you now at the show, 7th in the 7th row
Now you look at me
You see what I've known for so long
Sad that you could be so lovely and so wrong
Came to say that I've moved
I see your face, you don't approve
Guess you could say that I'm already gone
But you'll always be my golden boy
And I'm the summer girl that you enjoy
Some melodies are best left undone
I feel the time pass away
But in my songs you'll always stay
I don't need you to tell me I'm the one, no, no, no
I don't need you to tell me I'm the one
You'll never know that I was the one
6.This Time
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Linda Perry
It's 4 a.m. and I'm wide awake
Waiting for my thoughts to fade
The flickering of all of my mistakes
And as the light starts creeping in
I slowly feel the day I'm missing
But I won't even know where to begin
Do I push too hard？ I fall too fast
A moment never seems to last
Will I stop long enough to know？
'Cause everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away this time
The white circle in my head
It weighs so heavy on my chest
And I'm crushed by your expectation
I only want to do some good
Too dumb to know if I could
And I just wanna feel the days I'm in
Do I go too far, not far enough
Why can't I keep my big mouth shut
And do you lead the life that we should？
And everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away this time
Did I say too much again？
I'm just a girl in a panic
If I tell you my truth, am I getting through？
It just seems I should confess
And who am I to pretend？
This is more than I can carry
And everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt I cry
I hold my head up high
I know I'll be alright this time
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away this time
This time, this time
This time, this time
It's 4 a.m. and I'm wide awake
Waiting for my thoughts to fade
And in times like this I see your face
7.Fools Like Me
Beware the danger, it lurks for those who get swept away
The dreamers get punished most by the truth they say
It's all in the little ways one reveals their love's gone away
love's gone away
When my hand was in your hand my heart was pure
And now I see a different man
Rewriting memories
The dogs run down the beach
And all I'm left with is sand in my shoes
Sand in my shoes
'Cause fools like me
Oh we love blindly
And the cracks don't count
It's gotta break in front of me
Now I recall the time at the cafe,
The thunderstorm outside
Words you could never say
they hold the loudest tones
They say you're right
But it's ink on a page
just ink on a page
But fools like me
Oh we love blindly
And the cracks don't count
It's gotta break in front of me
Tick-tock the time
Distant look grows in your eyes
And fools never ask
Afraid what lurks in your eyes
I always knew, somehow always knew
I always knew the truth.
Cause fools like me
Oh we never see
And the cracks don't count
It's gotta break in front of me
And it's breaking
It's breaking
It's gotta break for me to see
At least I can say I was not afraid
I loved you all the way
And I'd pick the fool any day.
8.Home
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Stephan Jenkins
Some people live in a house on a hill
And wish they were someplace else
There's nobody there when the evening is still
Secrets with no one to tell
And some I have known have a ship where they sleep
With sounds of rocks on the coast
They sail over oceans, five fathoms deep
They can't find what they want the most
And even now when I'm alone
I've always known with you I am home
Some live in towns, cardboard shack on concrete
All blustered and bustling life
They search for the color you can never quite see
'Cause it's all white on white
And even now when I'm alone
I've always known with you I am home
And even now when I'm alone
I've always known with you I am home
For me it's a glance and the smile on your face
The touch of your hands, an honest embrace
For where I lay, it's you I keep
This changing world might fall asleep
With you all I know is I'm coming home, coming home
9.More Than This
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Stephan Jenkins
Cradling stones hold fire bright
As crickets call out to the moonlight
And as you lean in to steal a kiss
I'll never need more than this
We all share the pain of our histories
But the ache goes away if you could see
This night under stars, well, I call it peace
If you say I'll never need more than this
And the trees grow so thick
You can barely see through
And the forest bestows
All the simplest of truths
And you think you'll be happy
If granted one more wish
But the truth is you'll never need more
You'll never need more, you'll never need more than this
Want so much in this life, there's so much to be
We sail through our youth so impatiently
Until we see that the years move along
And soldiers and heroes come home and they carry a song
Don't live in forgotten times, may this always remind
You of the sea under the skies through looking glass
Let's make this our story
Let's live in the glory
Time it fades away, precious as a song
'Cause someday we'll be gone
Cradling stones hold fire bright
As we watch the glow of the morning light
Someday our bones here they will lie
And so we sing as the years move along
And soldiers and heroes come home and they carry a song
Let's make this our story
Let's live in the glory
Time it fades away, precious as a song
'Cause someday we'll be gone
10.Heroes ＆ Thieves
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton
When disaster it strikes on a daily basis
I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places
But still wanna laugh in disappointed faces
You can't help me I'm blinded by these
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I've figured it out
Darling, it's you I'm without
Well, I'm stubborn and wrong but at least I know it
I keep moving along and hope I can get through this
But maybe this song is the best, I can do it
So I'm patiently waiting on these
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I've figured it out
Darling, it's you, darling, it's you, oh darling, it's you
I'm without your comforting logic
Like these days are the ones I'll miss
And I see a solitude that I can't find without you
It seems like I'm getting closer somehow
A flicker of peace that I've finally found
Thank you for believing in me now
'Cause I do need it
Give me a year or two
I'll mend my ways and see these mistakes
And when I see the truth, darling, trust me
When I can't see I'll be coming back, I'll be coming back
'Cause there are heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I've figured it out
Well, darling, it's you, my darling, it's you, oh darling, it's
you I'm without
11.Nolita Fairytale (Main)
Lyricist：Vanessa Carlton, Stephan Jenkins
I know, you know, we don't see
We sow our truth, wait patiently
I walk the streets with a song in my head
We ebb and we flow so
Got my toes on my pup at the foot of my bed
My heart always seems to know
Now take the glitz back, I want the soul instead
'Cause I found some kind of fairytale
I used to hover outside my truth
Always worry of what I'd lose
Take away my record deal
Go on, I don't need it
Spent the last two years getting to what's real
And now I can see so clear
I hope you feel just like I feel
I found some kind of fairytale
Want a garden by the ocean tide
Because I lose my way searching for stage lights
Well, Stevie knows and I thank her so
'Cause it's your seeds I sow and now I know
Nolita, flat on rent control, that's the life I choose
And you drag me to the fashion show
The poses that I see through
The movies in the afternoon
'Cause I found some kind of fairy, tale, hey
Nolita Fairytale
(Ba da da da da da, ba da da da da da)
Nolita Fairytale
