"Beck and Call Girl"

Not gonna be ANYone's "Beck and Call Girl" ... 

Survivors

 

Oh life
Is just a game
No one ever tells you how to play
See different people
Go different ways
Some of them will leave you but
Some of them will stay

Well our hearts keep drumming
And the years keep coming
Quicker than they've ever been
You're sick of the same thing
But it's quicker than changing
It's too late to begin

Well everybody's running
But you don't know where
Time is running thin
Everybody's looking for somebody to love
But we're scared to let them in

And I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?
I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?
Am I on my own?
Am I on my own?

Oh love
It comes and goes
But no one never tells you how to learn to let go
Different people, they walk different roads
Some of them will hurt you but
Some of them won't

Well the bridge is burning
And the wheel keeps turning
Quicker than it did before
Your heart screams "yes"
Your head says "no"
And you're never really sure

Well everybody's running
But you don't know why
Time is running short
Everybody's looking for a place to hide
So there's no one left at all

And I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?
Yeah I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?

Am I here alone?
Oh oh oh
Am I here alone?
Oh oh, oh oh

Yeah

Yeah I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?
And I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?

I say oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?
Oh oh oh oh oh
Are there any survivors?
Am I here alone?

Try Losing One

 

It's hard to get a number
It's hard to get that dance
It's hard to talk a girl
Into ditching all her friends

It's hard to get that first kiss
It's hard to make one fall
It's hard to get the courage
Up to give her dad a call
And if all that ain't hard enough

Try losing one
Try walking through the door of an empty house
Try staring at the wall pouring whiskey out
Try living with knowing that you let her down
Try trying like hell not to think about
That hurt in her eyes as she turned around
If you think finding a girl you can't live without
Is the hardest thing you've ever done
Try losing one

It's hard to come home early
Them last call home come so late
Pride is hard to swallow
And sorry is hard to say

And taking her for granted
Is an easy thing to do
And if you wanna see the kind of hell
A girl can put you through

Try losing one
Try walking through the door of an empty house
Try staring at the wall pouring whiskey out
Try living with knowing that you let her down
Try trying like hell not to think about
That hurt in her eyes as she turned around
If you think finding a girl you can't live without
Is the hardest thing you've ever done
Try losing one
Try losing one

Try missing her every night holding on
Barely getting by a love like they
It might be hard to find

But try losing one
Try walking through the door of an empty house
Try staring at the wall pouring whiskey out
Try living with knowing that you let her down
Try trying like hell not to think about
That hurt in her eyes as she turned around
If you think finding a girl you can't live without
Is the hardest thing you've ever done
Try losing one

Try losing one

Seven Bridges Road

 

There are stars in the Southern sky
Southward as you go
There is moonlight and moss in the trees

Down the Seven Bridges Road

Now I have loved you like a baby
Like some lonesome child
And I have loved you in a tame way
And I have loved you wild
Sometimes there's a part of me
Has to turn from here and go
Running like a child from these warm stars

Down the Seven Bridges Road

There are stars in the Southern sky
And if ever you decide you should go
There is a taste of thyme sweetened honey

Down the Seven Bridges Road

Fall in Love

 

Heard you moved out to South Carolina just like you always said we would. Packed your bags in that ol’ 4 runner that I bought ya when things were good. I’m glad to see the stop sign didn’t hit ya bring ya back to your senses Ohhh it waved you gone goodbye. Yeah it waved you gone goodbye. I heard you found yourself a brand new man Put a rock on your finger and he vowed you a second chance. Built a house right by the coast That ocean view is beautiful but baby I just want you to know. He don’t know you like I did. Money talks but I ain’t buying. Loves a smoke ring wrapped around your finger One second it’s a blessing and the next it’s already gone. A broken heart I’m a walking testimony My confession is a lesson that I’m pouring out in this song. Oh woah woah Oh woah woah You don’t wanna fall in love. Seen your momma walking out the county market and I stopped to ask her how she’s been. Said she’s missing ya and tried to go convincing ya not to settle down with him. She ain’t wrong, the whole town knows it, you had a bed of roses But girl you couldn’t walk that line. You can act like you’re doing fine.

When the LIghts Go Out

 

Wicked Game

 

Thinking Out Loud

 

And So It Goes

 

In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense

And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you, soon, I suppose

But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break

And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows

I'd Love to Be Your Last

 

If I had it my way
This would be the first time that you made love
I'd be the first man that your hands touched

But we've both done our share of living
Takin' chances we were given
I've never been big on looking back
I don't care if I'm your first love
But I'd love to be your last

If I could do it over
I'd have waited for this moment
To give my heart to you unbroken

But if our mistakes brought us together
Doesn't really matter whether
We were saints or sinners in the past?
I don't care if I'm your first love
I'd just love to be your last

All I know is what I see when I look at you
And all I see is what I'm feeling down inside
And all I'm feeling is this feeling
That I finally got it right

When I wake up tomorrow
I'm gonna throw my arms around you
Thank my lucky stars I found you

'Cause I know your heart had so much more
Than any man has touched before and
Nothing matters more to me than that
I don't care if I'm your first love
But I'd love to be your last

You Were Never Mine

 

I saw someone again today
Who remembered me and you
They asked all the same old questions
I gave the same excuse
They said what a shame, what a shame
To lose a love so fine
But I never lost you
I never really lost you
I never lost you
You were never mine

I kept on believing
What I wanted to believe
The unspoken promises
Them that you could never keep
But it's a sin, oh, it's a sin to tell yourself a lie
But I never lost you
I never lost you
I never lost you
You were never mine

Did you give me all that you gave me
Just because, 'cause I needed you
But when I needed all your love completely
Was it more, more than you could do

Sometimes deep in the night
When I hold you in my dreams
I get lost in your loving touch, baby
I can't believe how real it seems
And I know, Lord, I know
I'll have you 'til the end of time
'Cause I never lost you
I never lost you
I never lost you
'Cause you were never mine

I never lost you
I never really lost you
How could I lose you
'Cause you were never mine

I Hope You're Happy

 There will be days when you're falling down

There will be days when you're inside out
There will be days when you fall apart
Someone else will break you heart
They're never gonna hold you back
I'm always gonna have your back
So try to remember that

I hope you're happy
I hope you're good
I hope you get what you wish for
And you're well understood

And now I'm standing here and looking at you
I wonder what the hell you're gonna do
With those Dr. Pepper eyes and you bubble gum hair
Yeah, I'm standing right here
I remember how I held you so right
I remember that Saturday night, do you?

There will be days when you're falling down
There will be days when you're inside out
There will be days when you fall apart
Someone else will break you heart
They're never gonna hold you back
I'm always gonna have your back
So try to remember that

I hope you're happy
I hope you're good
I hope you get what you wish for
And you're well understood
And whatever your progress
I know you'll be fine
Because I hope you're happy
Even if you're not mine

I remember when the world was ours to take
I remember you next to me
I remember you with every breath I take
You'll always have a piece of me
I remember, yeah
Try to remember that

I remember every word that we spoke
You right here next to me
I remember how we tried and we tried
I remember everything
Try to remember that
That I hope you're happy
That I hope you're happy

I hope you're happy
I hope you're good
I hope you get what you wish for
And you're well understood
And whatever your progress
I know you'll be fine
Because I hope you're happy
Even if you're not mine
Try to remember that
I hope you're happy

I Will Fear No More

 

Every anxious thought that steals my breath
It's a heavy weight upon my chest
As I lie awake and wonder what the future will hold
Help me to remember that You're in control


You're my courage when I worry in the dead of night
You're my strength 'cause I'm not strong enough to win this fight
You are greater than the battle raging in my mind
I will trust You, Lord, I will fear no more

I will lift my eyes, I will lift my cares
Lay them in Your hands, I'll leave them there
When the wind and waves are coming, You shelter me
Even though I'm in the storm, the storm is not in me


You're my courage when I worry in the dead of night
You're my strength 'cause I'm not strong enough to win this fight
You are greater than the battle raging in my mind
I will trust You, Lord, I will fear no more
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more


No power can come against me 'cause You have overcome
No darkness can overwhelm me 'cause You've already won
No power can come against me 'cause You have overcome
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh)
No darkness can overwhelm me 'cause You've already won
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh)


You're my courage when I worry in the dead of night
You're my strength 'cause I'm not strong enough to win this fight
You are greater than the battle raging in my mind
I will trust You, Lord (Trust You, Lord)
I will fear no more (Fear no more)

Trouble with a Heartbreak

 

The trouble with a heartbreak (heartbreak, heartbreak)

Don't let anybody tell ya it's gonna be easy ('cause it ain't easy)
Don't let anyone tell ya they know what it's like
Mmm, when they say
"Get out on this town, meet somebody new, get lost in a crowd" all I see is you
Don't let anybody tell ya it's gonna be easy

And that's the trouble with a heartbreak, it's gonna hang around
Leave you midnight breaking down, wonderin' how
Long that it's gonna take gettin' over her
It's a can't-drown-whiskey-down-kinda hurt
Yeah, you can burn them four wheels up that road
But there ain't nowhere her memory can't go
That's the trouble with a heartbreak
Yeah, that's the trouble with a heartbreak, a heartbreak, yeah (heartbreak, heartbreak, heartbreak)

Think about where she is, who she's drivin' crazy (driving me crazy)
Can't see a rearview sunset without thinkin' 'bout us
Girl, I still think about us

And that's the trouble with a heartbreak, it's gonna hang around
Leave you midnight breaking down, wonderin' how
Long that it's gonna take gettin' over her
It's a can't-drown-whiskey-down-kinda hurt
Yeah, you can burn them four wheels up that road
But there ain't nowhere her memory can't go
That's the trouble with a heartbreak
Yeah, that's the trouble with a heartbreak, a heartbreak, yeah
Oh, yeah
That's the trouble with a heartbreak

Get out on this town, meet somebody new
Meet somebody (get out on this town)
Get lost in a crowd, all I see is you

And that's the trouble with a heartbreak, it's gonna hang around
Leave you midnight breaking down, wonderin' how
Long that it's gonna take gettin' over her
It's a can't-drown-whiskey-down-kinda hurt
Yeah, you can burn them four wheels up that road
But there ain't nowhere her memory can't go
That's the trouble with a heartbreak
Yeah, that's the trouble with a heartbreak, a heartbreak, yeah

, oh yeah
That's the trouble with a heartbreak, oh yeah
