Get Something Started
Somewhere over this horizon
There’s an answer for my head
And all those things that make you helpless
We’ll give away instead
And all those things that make you happy
Are coming true just like I said.
And we get something started here
Get something started here
But we just can’t stop with something else
Somewhere over this horizon
There’s an answer for my heart
Cause all those things that bring you closer
Tear you all apart
Get something started here
Get something started here
But we just can’t stop with something else.
Get something started here
Get something started here
But we just can’t stop with something else.
Bridge
Get something started here
Get something started here
But we just can’t stop with something else.
Get something started here
Get something started here
But we just can’t stop with something else.

Bitter
Bitter kind of love
Bitter thinking of you
Bitter sweet kind of love
Bitter in the morning
Watching the passing cars
Takes all day sometimes
Just to make a start
Tell me if it takes too long
If the roads been wrong, far away
I know bout the burn and shine
With the hope inside
Bitter sweet love
Crown and anchor me
Cause I don’t know where my baby is
But this love won’t let me be
Break
Bitter sweet love
Crown and anchor me
Cause I don’t know where my baby is
But this love won’t let me be

Another Love Story
Take me back to never
Back when our love could hold it together
Honey I know what it’s like to conceive love
But never let myself believe love
In another love story
Where the heartbreak goes on
And you want to believe in something
And you stay out all night long
Wrapped up inside the future
Are a thousand new lovers who might suit you
Honey I know what’s it’s like to be beside love
And I wonder what it takes revive love
In another love story
Where the heartbreak goes on
And you want to believe in something
Something real and something strong
Like how it feels to love somebody
And stay out all night long
Stay out all night long
Stay out all night
Cause it’s another love story
Where the heartbreak goes on
And you want to believe in something
Maybe a world where no one knows
How it feels to love nobody
And stay out all night long

Any Kind of Love

Any Kind of Love
Any kind of love you want
You can take it if the moment is right
Don’t forget about the loves you got
You might need them if you want to survive
Cause outside
It may be raining
And cold for this life
And I’ve been so lonely
That the tears fall from my eyes
I’ve been so lonely
That the tears fall from my eyes
So tell me bout the good love baby
Any kind of hope you want
Well you can buy it from a lonesome subscriber
But don’t forget about the hope you got
You’re gonna need them if you want to survive
And outside
Everything I hold onto
Is hoping you come alive
Cause I’ve been so lonely
That the tears fall from my eyes
I’ve been so lonely
That the tears fall from my eyes
I’ve been so lonely
That the tears fall from my eyes
So tell me bout the good love baby
Tell me bout the good love baby
Tell me bout the good love baby
When it arrives

California
Honey
Nothing matters
But the fall in your hair
And our love can’t remember
That it takes time
For it to work out
Coming back, baby, if we can
And I’ll be there
Yes, I’ll be there
And we’ll go to
California
If you want to
Take a boat out from the shore
California
If you want to
Get the real, Get the real
Tonight
Break / Solo
California
If you want to
Take a boat out from the shore
California
If you want to
Get the real, Get the real
Tonight

Can't Stop

Can’t Stop
I’m inside of something
That I can never tell
It’s like a ball of cheap love baby
The kind they try to sell you
It’s hard to know if I am falling
As high as I can be
I want to give up your love baby
And what it does to me
But I can’t stop
Thinking about you baby
And I can’t stop
Thinking about a love that never ends
I heard it all around me
Like when you kiss and tell
If you would go as deep as I do
The more they try to tell you
Stay away from Harlem baby
You don’t want to see the sight
I never knew if I could leave
If I could say goodbye
But I can’t stop
Thinking about you baby
And I can’t stop
Thinking about that day
And I can’t stop
Thinking about you baby
And I can’t stop
Thinking bout our love
Breakdown
And I can’t stop
Thinking about you baby
And I can’t stop
Thinking about you baby
And I can’t stop
…
And I can’t stop
Thinking about you baby
And I can’t stop

Glisten
03:40
|

Glisten
Someone stop me from staring at the door
Like a mystic cathedral or a paragon of war
So much can open and let the light in
But this waiting seems easy and who needs to win
So I call you my sweet love and hang it on the wall
So much can happen like anything at all
Cause the future it glistens
Like an unfamiliar day
Like a love when it’s over
One that never goes away
Maybe tomorrow we can drive out in the car
We can sit and watch the TV;
We can sit and watch the war
Cause the future it glistens
Like the world on a string
When they tell you you’re alright
But you can’t feel anything
And the future it glistens
Like a lover’s holiday
Where maybe we’ll get married
Or just stay fucked up all day
And the future it glistens
Like an unfamiliar day
Like a love when it’s over
One that never goes away

Love Me One Time
I’m walking out on the street again lover
Thinking bout your pretty lies
And the first thing you learn about love
Is that it hurt you all the time
I want to know how the story ends
Will you end up getting caught?
Cause the second thing you learn about love
Is there’s just never enough
So love me one time baby
Yes I’m sure that’s not enough
Tell me twice that you’re never gonna leave
Cause baby it hurts to be in love
Love me one time baby
Yes I’m sure that’s not enough
Tell me twice that you’re never gonna leave
Cause baby once is not enough
I’m walking out on the street again lover
Trying to find a better life
Underneath the stars of a world
That’s hoping for love to arrive
But I want to know where the story ends
Will I end up getting caught?
Cause the second thing you learn about love
Is there’s just never enough
So love me one time baby
Yes I’m sure that’s not enough
Tell me twice that you’re never gonna leave
Cause baby it hurts to be in love
Love me one time baby
Yes I’m sure that’s not enough
Tell me twice that you’re never gonna leave
Cause baby once is not enough
Bridge
So love me one time baby
Yes I’m sure that’s not enough
Tell me twice that you’re never gonna leave
Cause baby it hurts to be in love
Love me one time baby
Yes I’m sure that’s not enough
Tell me twice that you’re never gonna leave
Cause baby once is not enough

WHERE ARE WE GOING
Day in, day out
Sidewalk sleepers turn about
Day by day, the work gets done
Day by day, another war goes on
(Chorus)
Tell me, where are we going?
What''s the future showing?
Where are we headed?
With all that''s going on where are we getting?
Day in, day out
A little boy and girl are going out
Day by day, baby''s babies are born
Day by day, people say, "Right on."
(Chorus)
All we need (repeated several times)
Day in, day out
It gets better and people shout
Day by day, flames get higher
Lives and pains fuel the fire
(Chorus) (to fade)
