Would You Even Try?

There's a five grown men standing on the corner
Watching the world go by
Twenty something' woman walks on by
With three children at her side
Can anybody help her? 3Xs
Would you even try?
Chorus
Would you even try
Or would you turn your back away
Would you even try
Or are you just saving it for another day
Would you even try - Yeahh
Would you even try - Oooohhh
Well there’s a teenage kid with a strung out mother
Gotta teach himself how to survive
And you can find him on the street cause he don’t like to be
Around her when she’s getting high
Can anybody help him?
Can anybody help him?
Oh and will anybody raise him?
Did they even try?

Chorus
Sometimes a good feeling just can't last
There's too many things I gotta do, and this is moving way to fast
I ain't ready (I ain't Ready) for your love (For Your Love)
But I wish I was, yeah I wish I was, mmmhmm
V1
Well you caught me staring at you so I shyly looked away
and when I sneaked to grab another peak you were staring back at me
So I walked on over to you and I asked you for your name
Two weeks later we're living together
and you're thinking you might stay
But I don't think I'm ready yet
Chorus
Admittedly I like you but its just infatuation
Oh and I don't wanna love you yet but I'm feeling the temptation
You're a bit progressive and you want a family
But I've got places around this world that I still wanna see
I’m so sorry baby, it just can’t beeeee…. with you
Chorus
I think I love you but can we just be friends 6Xs
I ain't ready for the commitment
But baby when we're older hope we meet again
Chorus
I think I love you but can we just be friends 8Xs

I Just Want You
03:35
|

I was paralyzed by those pair of lies
But those pair of eyes brought me right back to you
I gave up my pride, for you by my side
You can do what you want and I'll turn my head
I got nowhere else to go
Chorus
I just want you however I can
And if I can't be the only one
Will you still hold my hand when we're alone?
Will you still kiss me?
And when we're home
Will you pretend I'm the only one you're dreaming of
I heard from your friends you had been untrue
But I did not believe them till I walked in on you
I wish you only - wanted me
But how can I tell you what to do, if I don't want you to leave
Chorus
Don't wanna be lonely
I've been alone for too long
You think you don't hurt me
Baby you're wrong
Chorus

When My Baby's Gone

When my baby's gone
Well nobody wanna see me
And nobody seems to care if I'm alive
When my baby's gone
Everybody just be asking
How she been or where she at or what she’s like
(Chorus)
Doesn't anyone love me
Or do they just love my baby
or is it just my imagination runnin' wild
I just feel so lucky
That she's so into me
So I'm gonna keep on doing my best to make her smile
When my baby's gone
Well the phone just sits there silent
And my pride is slowly dying
But at least I know she's mine
When my baby's gone
All the parties lose their life
‘cause she's the brightest light
In the whole down town
Chorus
Bridge
Oh but when she's here
Oh everything is going right
All the people passing by they just stare
And I know they're wondering what she's doing here by my side
But she'll never deny that she's my girl and I'm her guy
When my baby's gone
The time it moves so slowly
So I replay the times she's told me
She can’t wait to come back home
When my baby's gone
All the parties lose their life
‘cause she's the brightest light
In the whole down town
Chorus

VS 1
Well I got no time to talk all about it
I said that I'm sorry
and I'm moving on
Let’s pretend those words we said never happened
Let's (just) go back to laughin’
and getting along
PC 1
Guess it's true some things are better left unspoken
But you pushed until I told you now you're pretty heart's broken
Chorus
Oh Baby, I'm sorry – you got me down my knees today
Ooh Baby, I'm Crazy – I didn’t mean it that way
VS 2
You always said you wanted me to be honest
So I made u a promise
To tell u the truth
I thought you'd understand so that's why I said it
But now I regret it
Baby what are we gonna do
PC 2
Such a fool for fallin for your bestest friend
But does that mean what we have has to end?
Chorus
Oh Baby, I'm sorry – you got me down my knees today
(I said I'm sorry, I said that I'm sorry ooh)
Ooh Baby, I'm Crazy – I didn’t mean it that way
(I said I'm sorry, I said that I'm sorry ooh)
Bridge
“You know there comes that time in every man’s life he’s gotta get down on his knees and say I’m sorry.

Let a Little Love In
04:31

Verse 1
Love's not the way that you're talking at me
It's not the way that you make me feel
Its not the way that you push me down again and again
Before I get up for a chance to heal
Verse 2
Love's not the way that you criticize me
Putting me down to all my friends
It's not the way that you try to plead and apologize
When you go right back and do it again
Chorus
I don't wanna be a fighter
I'd rather be your friend
So can we get a little a higher
Let a little love in
Let a little love in
Love’s not the way you like to see me fail
And point out my faults like it's a game
It’s not the way that you try to walk all over me
When you need someone else to blame
Chorus
Interlude
Let a Little love in, Let a Little love in 16Xs
