the other man

you know he's not the one for you, but that's no fault of mine • he know's that i'm a friend of yours, but doesn't know i've crossed the line • i know you've got a man in the picture, but it hasn't stopped me yet • we've all been in one situation or another we regret • now i'm the other man • no one's routing for me • if i'm the other man • nature will abhor me • you know i want to keep my distance, 'cause it's happening anyway • he know's your going to drift apart, and there's nothing he can say • i know that he's a stand up guy, but that's none of my concern • we've all been in one situation or another, it's my turn • to be the other man • no one sympathizes • when you're the other man • everyone despises • he's gonna find out that the rumours are true • the love that i've still unbeknownst to you • he'll find out • so i tell you because • you've got to find out • before he does • i know you've got a man in the picture, but it hasn't stopped me yet • we've all been in one situation or another we regret • now i'm the other man • no one's routing for me • if i'm the other man • nature will abhor me • yeah, no one sympathizes • yeah, everyone despises... **

15 minutes

i hear that you say, you want to be in my life • a moment to shine will make you feel everything's alright • oh it'll be hot • on that i guarantee • but sometimes the heat is way too hot for even me • you've got 15 minutes • you've got 15 minutes to be with me • you're staring at me • my face, body, voice, sizing up my abilities • it's not who i am • it's the glam, not the man you demand from me • oh it'll be hot • on that i guarantee • when you get me off...the stage of course • you'll find what you get is not what you see • you've got 15 minutes • if you want to know me, just ask me my name • once you get past the glitz, we're all just the same • just people who need people • (chorus) • everything you need is all in your head • who cares what i wear or who's in my bed • you've got 15 minutes to be with me *

save me

i don’t know when • i don’t know why • a little bird begins to fly • i try to hear the words he sings • but it don’t make much sense to me • ‘cause i • don’t know why • i can’t fly • to the sky • i wonder how i’m gonna learn • that fire doesn’t always burn • that nothing's ever what it seems • that i can do most anything i want • have some fun • buy a gun • or i could run • save me • save me • save me now • (save me, need me, teach me, blame me, hold me, bathe me, feed me, save me, now) • i’m looking out but cannot see • just what there is in store for me • a breath of faith is all i need • to spread my wings • and try to live my life • i won’t cry • won’t deny • my own right • (chorus) *

naked

show me what you want • i’ll show you all you need • you dress yourself in lies that hide • the beauty that’s underneath • take off what you fear • strip down and be bare • you're building walls without a door • when honesty’s in your reach • remove and disclose to know the strength in letting go • and when your exposed you’ll know the power in these words • the power in these words • the power in these words • lose your cares with me • take the past • set it free • trust me with an open heart • i’ll teach you how to see • i want to get naked, baby • naked with the truth • i want to get naked, baby • i want to get naked with you • i want to get naked, baby • naked with the truth • i want to get naked, baby • i want to get naked with you • (repeat chorus) *

love prevails
	i want to share this world with you • because i like you • because i know you • i want to have this dance with you • because i know you • because i want you • i can see by your smile • that you understand me • come and be by my side • just let me show you what i know • look at you • look at me • until this moment fades away • i’m gonna hold you • i’m gonna feel you • there’s not a need to say a word • because i feel you • i’m gonna take you • we are starting to shine • the start of ecstasy • come cross over the line • i’m gonna show you where it’s good • look at you • look at me • uncommonly rare • elusive and fair • deceptively frail • but love prevails • rewarding in kind • a beautiful rhyme • and no one can fail • ‘cause love prevails • i want to hear you ask for more • because i like it • because i need it • i don’t care what they say • it doesn’t matter now • and with you i must stay • then you can show me how it’s done • look at me • look at you • (chorus) *

baby, come to me

thinking back in time • when love was only in the mind • i realize • ain't no second chance • you've got to hold onto romance • don't let it slide • there's a special kind of magic in the air • when you find another heart that needs to share • baby, come to me • let me put my arms around you • this was meant to be • and i'm oh so glad i found you • need you everyday • got to have your love around me • baby always stay • 'cause i can't go back to living without you • spending every dime • to keep you talking on the line • that's how it was • and all those walks together • out in any kind of weather • just because • there's a brand new way of looking at your life • when you know that love is standing by your side • (chorus) • the night can get cold • there's a chill to every evening when you're all alone • don't talk anymore • 'cause you know that i'll be there to keep you warm • (repeat chorus) ***
