Wild Orchid Oxygen Lyrics
1.Be Mine

(wild orchid, dane deviller & sean hosein)
Showin' it, flowin' it, doin' it right
Cuz you can't connect if you be polite
Come a come say that you'll be mine

You can send it in a bottle, or even by u.p.s.
Send it in a telegram, just make sure that it gets here fast
You can mail it in a letter, call me up on the telephone
Have it written in the sky, can't you see that i'm dying to know

Yeah, it's o.k. that you're a little shy
Cuz there's a thousand and one ways
To say what you wanna say

All i want is a message
All i need is a sign
Baby, just give me a signal
That you're gonna be mine
Gonna be mine

Have it printed on a billboard, or e-mail me on the net
Dedicate it on the radio, or send it by fed express

You know i've benn waiting so patiently
Don't go and waste precious time
Cuz i can't read you're mind

When you're with me, i barely breathe
I just can't speak what i feel
Say the words for me


2.Come As You Are

(rudy perez)
Shelter my feelings, stand by my side
You need no alibi
Show your emotions, give me a sign
Let me know that you're mine

Be my lover, be my best friend
Oh baby, save me when i fade
And i will always love you
I promise i'll be true to you
If you...

Come as you are
Don't change a thing
Here is my heart
Just walk right in
Come as you are
Don't tell me lies
And i'll be yours
Till do us part

There is a heaven
It's in your eyes
Where i have no disguise
Please don't mislead me
Rescue my pride

Show me you're really mine
I want you for me, no questions asked
Don't need to know 'bout your past
'cause i will always love you
I promise i'll be true to you
If you...


3.Declaration

(manuel seal)

If i told you once
I've told you a thousand times
But you never listen to me
I just wanna be free to live
To live my life
I don't want your thoughts
Or your opinions of me

You think you tell me what i wanna know
But i only listen
To what i need to hear
So much drama i don't understand
] how you make nothing
Sound so sincere

I'm gonna do what i wanna do
Say what i wanna say
Be who i wanna be baby (repeat)

You're always trying to tell me
Where i can go
Or who it is that i can socialize with, baby
But as long as i don't hurt no one
Or break no laws
You're best to know
I won't put up with it


4.Holding On

(wild orchid, full force)

They say patience is a virtue
But i've been waithing too long
I believed in your promises
And it hurts to see i'm wrong

The one more tries, the sleepless nights
The countless tears that i've cried

Why should i keep holding on
When i know someone new is holding you
Why should i keep holding on
I gotta let go, cuz love's already gone

Stairways leading down to nowhere
Roads that never end
Why keep going 'round in circles
To break my heart again

Caressed my hair, then left me there
Alone but you don't care

I used to think that i should blame myself
But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else
Now here's a me you've never seen before
As you're watching me walk right out the door


5.In My Room


6.Make It Easy For Me

(wild orchid, chris bolden)

Promise me that if you leave
You won't be coming back again
It hurts to see your face when you look at me that way
Don't try to take me in your arms
'cause i don't thik that i could find the strength
To let you go, and leave me here alone

I need to break the ties that keep on breaking my heart
Not gonna hang on to the strings you tore apart

So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
The hardest thing i'll ever do is say goodbye
Still loving you
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
Turn around and walk away
'cause we've run out of words to say

You promised me our love would be
A fairy tale that everyone would wish for in their dreams
Well, where's my happy ending
Memories play in my mind, frame by frame
I see it all
How could i have been so blind

Say you're sorry to me a million times
But that will never ease the pain
That i will feel right now inside
You can try and make it better
But no matter what your do, you took away forever
When you told me we were through


7.Our Lips Are Sealed

(terence hall, jane wieden)

We've got a secret, but our lips are sealed
We've got a secret, but our lips are sealed

Can you hear them they talk about us
Tellin' lies, well that's no surprise
Can you see them, see right through them
They have no shield, no secrets to reveal

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play--hey-hey-hey
Our lips are sealed

There's a weapont hat we must use
In our defense, silence
When you look at them, look right through them
That's when they disappear, that's when we'll be feared

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play-- hey-hey-hey
Our lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
'cause it doesn't matter anyway--hey-hey-hey
Our lips are sealed

We've got a secret but
Our lips are sealed

Hush my darling, don't you cry
Silent angels--forget their lies

Can you hear them they talk about us
Tellin' lies, well that's no surprise
Can you see them, see right through them
They have no shield, no secrets to reveal


8.Take You Higher

(wild orchid, parental advisory, ron fair)

Hello goodbye--do you wanna ride
You don't need to know where you're going
Take a trip through the old and the new
It's easy to see that you're jonesin'

Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to lift you up
So stay awake it's early
'cuz there's always more tequila

Let me take you higher
Wanna be the birdy on our wire baby?
We can take you higher
Let's fly high

Cruise the ocean then down to l.a.
The beautiful people are waiting
See and be seen it's only a dream
Feel reality fadin'

Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to lift you up
So stay awake it's early
Don't you want some more teqila

No thinkin' while you're drinkin'
It just gets in the way
All the faces and the places
Yeah, they all look the same
But you're lucky like a puppy
So go on, roll the dice
Think high


9.Tic Toc

(wild orchid, todd chapman< john carter)

Sometimes when two people meet
You know that undeniably
There can be an instant chemistry
Do you feel the magic here with me
Ohh, let's not wait
No need to hesitate
Better find out before it's too late

Tic toc look at the clock
Love is just a moment away
Don't stop, make my world rock
Come closer don't make me wait
Tic toc the doors are all locked
Love is just a moment away

Never gonna stop
Gonna make you rock
To the rhythm of the tic toc

Longing for those sleepless nights
Sunday morning lazy days and candlelight
The anticipation drives me wild
Fantasies they just won't leave my mind

Ohh let's not wait
Destiny said this is fate
Just imagine what we could create

All night long
Never gonna stop
Gonna make you rock
To the rhythm of the tic toc
Just hold on
Take it nice and slow
Wanna make it slow
Like the rivers and the oceans go
Feel the current deep down below
We'll be free
It's a mystery
Wondering what will be
Fortune tellers are telling me
In the crystal ball they can see
You and me

Ohh, time keeps ticking away
It goes by so fast
Let's live in the moment, let's make this love last


10.Wasted Love

(wild orchid, sylvia bennett smith)

How could you do this to me?
How could you do this to me?
I put my trust in you
That's what you're supposed to do
How could you tell all those lies
While you're looking dead straight in my eyes?
You're someone i thought i knew
She must have thought so too
Before i say goodbye

Just tell me why did i give a little bit more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love

Looking back now it's all makin sense
When you said she was only a friend
Friends who were making love
Was it worth breaking up?
All the answers i don't want to know
I'll keep asking for after i go
The flowers they came too late
You've turned the love to hate
It's your turn now to cry

We can try and lie, but we both know
Too many things have changed
The memory of her in your arms
Is driving me insane

The shattered dream just breaks my heart
I can't go on this way
I will never look at you the same
You wear a different face


11.You're No Good


12.You & Me

(wild orchid, sylvia bennett smith)

Now that we've traveled through mountains
Now that we swam throught the sea
I'm sure we can go just a little bit further
As long as there's still you and me

Ahead i can see a few showers
Maybe we'll weather a storm
It's my turn to watch as you sleep by the meadow
I'll keep us both safe from all harm

Just as long as i know that you're here with me
We can crumble the mountains divide the sea
If we try than we can, if we stick to the plan
Of l-o-v-e as long as there's still you and me
You and me, you know i love you baby
You know i love you boy

Side by side, hand in hand we'll keep moving
Temptation might call out my name
You'll be the first to say go ahead and answer
And i'll be the first one to say

The magic that's found in dreams
Is the music you put in me
We'll build castles up in the sky
That's the power of you and i
