Last Year

the smell of january makes me think of
this time last year when we were still so in love

the same flowers are growing
in the same place
at the same time
in the same way
as last year
last year, when you were mine

my old calendar is marked on this day
the special day that I have now put to hate

the same flowers are growing
in the same place
at the same time
in the same way
as last year
last year, when you were mine

if we had never met, then I would never know
this empty longing for a time so long ago
I'm glad you're gone but sometimes I don't think it's fair
that this time every year my mind will be somewhere away

I go down all the streets that we once walked on
thinking of things I haven't thought for so long

the same flowers are growing
in the same place
at the same time
in the same way
as last year
last year, when you were mine

Fine Day For Sailing

this is the last time that I'll wish you dead
I think I've decided to like you instead
I'll throw away the letters that I never meant to send
'cause now I've got more love to give than to end
therefore this time I mean it
this time will stick
you're easy to like when you're not making me sick

and maybe you can come to my house for tea
we won't talk about all the pain you caused me
I've become quite adept at pretending your nice
if you don't believe it, pretending will have to suffice
although this time I mean it
this time's for real
just 'cause you ruined my life, it's no big deal

so I'll take the pins out of the doll
I'll take the darts out of the wall
I'm just so nice now I'm not like before
I don't think of hurting you much anymore

it's a fine day for sailing
let's go for a spin
you don't have to worry that I'll push you in
I'm so happy now I'm friends with most everyone
even people like you don't deserve to have none
so now this time I mean it
I just don't have time to waste hating you
all those days are behind me for good
those days are behind me for good

I'm Still Crying

I'm still crying and I don't know what to do
I'm still trying to forget all about you

soon enough I will be over you
it won't matter where you are or what you do
someday I hope to forget that we ever met
just as soon as I'm through crying

I'm still crying and I don't know what it might be
that just when I think that I don't miss you
this crying comes over me

soon enough, I will be over you
it won't matter where you are or what you do
someday I hope to forget that we ever met
maybe then I will stop crying

soon enough I will be over you
it won't matter where you are or what you do
someday I hope to forget that we ever met
just as soon as I'm through crying

I hope to forget that we ever met
maybe then I will stop crying

I Just Do

I dropped a penny and you picked it up
you want to be something when you grow up
you make me laugh and you don't even try
you say that sometimes you just like to cry

I'm in love with that
I'm in love with you
and I'm in love with everything that you do
you couldn't make a mistake in my eyes
just the way that you are has got me hypnotized
that I'm dreaming, dreaming
dreaming about you

I asked you if you could ever love me
you said the oranges in your garden are free
I asked you if there was more to this thing
you said that you liked the way that I sing

I'm in love with that
I'm in love with you
and I'm in love with everything that you do
you couldn't make a mistake in my eyes
just the way that you are has got me hypnotized
that I'm dreaming, dreaming
dreaming about you

somebody took all the things that
I wish for the most and put them in you, in you
I know that I shouldn't like you this much I can't help it
oh well, I just do
I just do

I said that being your friend was okay
you called when I wasn't home yesterday
I offered romance to you by mistake
still you laugh at most every joke that I make

I'm in love with that
I'm in love with you
and I'm in love with everything that you do
you couldn't make a mistake in my eyes
just the way that you are has got me hypnotized
that I'm dreaming, dreaming
dreaming about you

Bigger Than An Ocean

if you moved a million miles
away
I'd still visit you every day

flying across the sea is not the farthest I would go
I'd go around the world just to see you 'cause I know

my love is bigger than an ocean
my heart swims in a sea of devotion
my love is bigger than an ocean
my heart swims in a sea of devotion for you

if the water takes my boat
away
I'd still find you in less than day

flying across the sea is not the farthest I would go
I'd go around the world just to see you 'cause I know

my love is bigger than an ocean
my heart swims in a sea of devotion
my love is bigger than an ocean
my heart swims in a sea of devotion for you
for you, for you, for you
for you, for you, for you
for you

Silly

you probably think I'm foolish and shy
but I only act this way when you walk by

hi, how are you? and what did you do
that has made me this way?
I don't have a thing to say
when i'm with you i become so jumbled inside
my confidence crumbles
my cleverness dies
when I met you I knew there was something to this
and it's silly, but I thought so in your kiss

I'm trying to say that I'm mean but instead
your laughing at me because of what I said

hi, how are you? and what did you do
that has made me this way?
I don't have a thing to say
when I'm with you I become so jumbled inside
my confidence crumbles
my cleverness dies
when I met you I knew there was something to this
and it's silly, but I thought so in your kiss

Long Distance

sometimes I come home to no one
but it's much better than having no fun with you
you said that you'd start calling
but when does that start 'cause I'm still waiting

but I won't wish your plane down
just this time, next time you won't be so lucky
I have no sympathy left for you
please just pay me what you owe me

monday I got a postcard from you
but I don't think I know what you hoped to achieve
with all the spaces you left in between
I'm sad that none of it means anything

but I won't wish your plane down
just this time, next time you won't be so lucky
I have no sympathy left for you
please just pay me what you owe me

long distance calling
big stars are falling
long distance bother
too late to call back now

I won't wish your plane down
just this time, next time you won't be so lucky
I have no sympathy left for you
please just pay me what you owe me

Windy

I never should have told you everything I did
'cause maybe you might still like me
you were my love for that entire day
but I lost you to a windy street

so go ahead and marry her
don't mind me
that's what I get for being blind
I never meant for you
to drive so far away
just 'cause I was on your mind, I was on your mind

I have so many things I still want to say
now I know I never will
'cause your much to busy making plans with her
did you notice I adored you still?

so go head and marry her
it's what you want
I hope that your forever stays
but sometimes I imagined that I did things right
I wish I could have made you wait, I wish you'd wait

I still remember the feel of your coat
when you smiled and said, "Ok"
and your eyes that said, "goodbye"
and the way they cried all night, I blame that night

so go ahead and marry her
she's really nice
she's everything that I can't be
I just hope that somewhere in your wedded bliss
you find the time to think of me, I hope you think of me

The Boy Who Sailed Around The World

I know a boy who sailed around the world
started off with his cat
he fell in love with a girl
now what do you think of that?
they visited many lands
madagascar, tonga, and france
but now he lives all alone
in a rusty old houseboat

and there floats
out in the san pablo bay
when he goes, I won't know
but she'll write him every day
today

today he's fishing in his spot
but never a fish caught
she brought him sandwiches
and scared away the fish
how could he understand
she's a lover of the land
he's a lover of the sea
they were lovers that couldn't be

sailor, go
give her the time of day
if you go, don't you know
she'll write you every day
but I said it before and I'll say it again
don't ever go out to sea with a friend
I said it before and I'll say it again
don't ever go out to sea without your pen

would you sail with me, would you sail with me
would you sail with me around the world
(would you sail with me, would you sail with me
would you sail) with me around the world
(would you sail with me, would you sail with me
would you sail) with me around the world
(would you sail with me, would you sail with me
would you sail) with me around the world
go sailor go sailor go sailor
go sailor go sailor go sailor
go whoa, go whoa, go whoa

Don't Go

thinking of you left behind
leaving the door open wide
turning around, do you know I'm there?
the last thing you said hanging in the air

don't you know this kind of heartache never mends?
should I tell myself it was an accident again?
please don't leave me, don't go, I'm not ready yet

spinning around having too much fun
fancying I was the only one
losing your patience every turn
do you see a lesson to be learned?

did you really mean to leave me behind?
did my feelings ever cross your busy mind?
please don't leave me, don't go, I'm not ready yet

I spent half the night a stranger
I was calling out your name
crying so hard, I couldn't tell you how I felt
I waited all day
you never came

Ray Of Sunshine

her melody wants her desperately
cried only tears, 'cause she so far from here

she's a ray of sunshine
my only ray of sunshine

yellow hair, far away stare
nothing's right, 'cause she's not here tonight

she's a ray of sunshine
my only ray of sunshine

I know that I'm going nowhere
I wish that she'd come back to me
she's all I need, she's all I need
all I need to end my misery

she's a ray of sunshine
my only ray of sunshine
she's a ray of sunshine
my only ray of sunshine

Together Forever In Love

what do they know when they say I'm too young
as I get older and until my life is done
I'll be the one who had love that was true
they all had nothing, and I have you

we'll be together forever in love
together forever in love
together forever in love

I'll be your reason for starting your day
you'll be my true love in every way
I'll always need you, I promise that now
through good and bad as long as this life will allow

we'll be together forever in love
together forever in love
together forever in love

my life is for living
I'll spend on giving you
all that I can
my heart and my hand

my life with you will shine brighter than gold
memories of heaven for when I get old
never again will I wanna run away
I didn't think that I could ever feel this way

we'll be together forever in love
together forever in love
together forever in love

together forever in love

Every Day

walking around in the haze of loving you
so tired, not used to this
not knowing what to do
am I smart enough to make you see
if this is hard for you, then it's twice as hard for me

oh, can I give my heart away
oh, can I do this every day
this troubles me and I know it troubles you
and the worst part is that I know you love me too

trying to say it so you know that I'm sincere
my love and my devotion, throw away my fear
and if you're willing, then so am I
how can you ever know if you never even try

oh, can I give my heart away
oh, can I do this every day
this troubles me and I know it troubles you
and the worst part is that I know you love me too
