GIRLS KEEP SECRETS IN THE STRANGEST WAYS  (C.S.)

 

IF YOU QUIT

IF YOU START

IF YOU WANT

TO PLAY A PART

IF YOU STOP

IF YOU BEGIN

IF YOU LOSE IT

IF YOU WIN

 

IF YOU COME

IF YOU GO

IF YOU MISS

THE OPENING NIGHT SHOW

IF YOU SMILE

IF YOU CRY

IF YOU PROMISE

IF YOU LIE

 

GIRLS KEEP SECRETS IN THE STRANGEST WAYS

GIRLS DON’T TELL

WE JUST SOMETIMES HAVE TO SAY

 

IF YOU SPEAK

IF YOU KEEP STILL

IF YOU TURN MOUNTAINS

INTO A MOLE-HILL

IF YOU LOVE

IF YOU HATE

IF YOU SEE IT ALL

TOO LATE

 

 

 

 

CAPSIZE C.S

 

DO YOU THINK THE SPEED IS GOOD

ARE WE MOVING LIKE WE SHOULD

WE ARE SAILING WITHOUT BREEZE

ANYTHING TO KEEP THE PEACE


WHAT TO DO

WHAT TO PRAY FOR

WHAT TO FEAR

WHAT TO SAY

WHAT TO THINK

WHAT TO BREAK

WHAT TO HOPE FOR

WHAT TO TAKE

WHEN IT SEEMS SO FAR AWAY

 


DO YOU THINK THE SPEED IS GOOD

ARE WE MOVING LIKE WE SHOULD

WE ARE DRIFTING WITHOUT STREAM

ANYTHING TO KEEP THE DREAM

 


WHAT TO DO

WHAT TO PRAY FOR

WHAT TO FEAR

WHAT TO SAY

WHAT TO THINK

WHAT TO BREAK

WHAT TO HOPE FOR

WHAT TO TAKE

WHEN IT SEEMS SO FAR AWAY

 



DO YOU THINK WE’LL EVER BE BACK THERE

WHERE WE USED TO LOVE AND CARE

DROWNING SLOWLY WITHOUT WATER

ANYTHING CAN TURN US OVER

 
 
 
 

COUNTRYSONG (I.L.S. / C.S.)

 

YOU SAID GO FOR IT

I SAID STOP

I’M MORE THAN WILLING TO GIVE THIS UP

THIS IS NOT MEANT FOR ME

I’M AS HELPLESS AS A GIRL CAN BE

 

YOU SAID COME, COME ON

I SAID WAIT

IT’S IMPOSSIBLE

IT’S TOO LATE

THIS IS NOT MEANT FOR ME 

I’M AS HELPLESS AS A GIRL CAN BE

 

I STILL FEAR

THOUGH I KNOW IT ALL BY HEART, NOW

I STILL DON’T DEAR

THOUGH I’VE LEARNED EVERY PART NOW


YOU SAID TRY ONCE MORE

I SAID WELL

THIS WILL NOT WORK

SO I HAVE TO TELL

THIS IS NOT MEANT FOR ME

I’M AS HELPLESS AS A GIRL CAN BE

 

BUT IF I HAD BEEN STRONGER 

IF I HAD BEEN BRAVE

I COULD HAVE GIVEN

WHAT I NEVER GAVE

IF I HAD BEEN BETTER 

IF I HAD BEEN THE BEST

YOU COULD BE PROUD OF ME

LIKE ALL THE REST

 

 

 

 

DIAMONDS IN THE SAND (C.S)

 

BY THE WAY

I DON’T EASILY FORGET

WHAT YOU SAID

BY THE SEASIDE, AT SUNSET

 

BY THE WAY 

I WILL NOT NECESSARILY ASK

YOU TO STAY

THOUGH THAT SHOULD BE AN EASY TASK

 

AM I DREAMING?

AM I BREATHING?

AM I LOSING DIAMONDS IN THE SAND?

 

BY THE WAY

I DON’T USUALLY REGRET

BUT TODAY

I LOST BEFORE I PLACED MY BET


BY THE WAY

I DON’T EXACTLY KNOW

WHAT TO SAY

I WANT BACK THE STONE THAT I JUST THREW AWAY

 

AM I DREAMING?

AM I BREATHING?

AM I LOSING DIAMONDS IN THE SAND?

 

WHEN IT’S LARGER THEN YOU EVER CALCULATED

WHEN IT LASTS A LITTLE LONGER THEN YOU EVER ESTIMATED

 

 

 

 

BLOWN C.S

 

YOU TRY TO LOOK ME IN MY EYE

WANTING FORGIVENESS FOR YOUR LIES

DO I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE

 

YOU SAY YOU MISS THE TIMES WE HAD

YOU ARE SORRY AND YOU ARE SAD

DO I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE

 

YOU SAY IT ALL SEEMS LIKE A MESS

WITHOUT ME THERE’S NOTHING LEFT

DO I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE

 

IT’S NOT COMPLETELY BLOWN

BUT NOT SO CLEVERLY DONE

 

YOU WERE THE ONE WHO TURNED ME DOWN

CAN’T BELIEVE YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN

DO I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE


YOU DO YOUR VERY BEST TO EXPLAIN

YOU MAY DO IT ALL IN VAIN

DO I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE


YOU SAY YOU KNOW JUST HOW I FEEL

IT’S NOT EASY TO CONCEAL

DO I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE

 

 

 

 

ON MY FEET AGAIN (I.L.S/ C.S.)

 

 

MAYBE A LITTLE TO HARD

MAYBE OVER THE TOP

MAYBE I WENT TO FAR AND I COULDN’T STOP

MAYBE I MISUNDERSTOOD

FROM THE START

MAYBE I WAS STUPID AND FOR ONCE NOT SMART


MAYBE A LITTLE TOO LOUD

MAYBE MORE THAN A BIT

MAYBE I WAS WRONG AND IT WAS HARD TO ADMIT

MAYBE MY FACE TURNED RED

WHEN I LOOKED DOWN

MAYBE I HAD A LOT TO FIND ON THE GROUND


MAYBE I’VE GOT A LOT TO LEARN ABOUT FALLING DOWN
MAYBE I’VE GOT A LOT TO LEARN ABOUT GETTING UP ON MY FEET AGAIN


MAYBE EVERYONE KNEW 

MAYBE I DENIED

MAYBE I BELIEVED MYSELF WHEN I LIED

MAYBE I WAS NAIVE

I HAD NO IDEA

MAYBE I WAS BLIND

YEAH, YEAH IT MAY BE

 

 

 

 

 

MAPLE TREE C.S.

 

 

UNDER A MAPLE TREE

THERE IS ROOM FOR YOU

AND ROOM FOR ME

I’M HOLDING A LEAF WITH MY TOE

DIDN’T SEE YOU COME

WILL NOT LET YOU GO

 

WHEN THE SKY IS BLUE

RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU

TOUCH IT WHILE YOU CAN

IT MAY NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN


UNDER A MAPLE TREE

IS WHERE I WANT TO STAY

WHERE I WANT TO BE

THROWING A BRANCH INTO THE AIR

WILL NOT LET YOU FALL OR DISAPPEAR

 

WHEN THE SKY IS BLUE

RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU

TOUCH IT WHILE YOU CAN

IT MAY NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN

 

 

 

ONE OF A KIND C.S.

 

 

TAKE IT EASY

TAKE IT SLOWLY

TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME


WAKE UP LONELY

WAKE UP SLOWLY

WAKE UP, NEVER MIND


YOU DESERVE A MUCH BETTER VIEW

USE YOUR ELBOWS

PULL YOURSELF THROUGH


YOU DESERVE EVERY COMPLIMENT

TRY TO KEEP THEM

THOUGH YOU CAN’T


LET THE WIND BLOW

LET TIME SHOW

LET LOOSE

LET HIM GO


KEEP GOOD MOMENTS

KEEP TRUST IN ROMANCE

KEEP ON AND YOU WILL KNOW


YOU DESERVE A MUCH BETTER VIEW

USE YOUR ELBOWS

PULL YOURSELF THROUGH


YOU DESERVE EVERY COMPLIMENT

TRY TO KEEP THEM

THOUGH YOU CAN’T

 

TAKE IT EASY

TAKE IT SLOWLY

TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME

YOU ARE ONE OF A KIND
