I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
And you know it makes me sick to be on that list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
You say you're gonna burn before you mellow
I will be the one to burn you
Why'd you have to go and pick me?
When you knew that we were different, completely
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriendI hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
Your wildness scares me
So does your freedom
You say you can't stand the restrictions
I find myself trying to change you
If you were meant to be my lover I wouldn't have to
And I feel so mean, I feel in between
'Cause I'm about to give you away
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
(for someone else to take)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
(am I making a mistake?)
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
(all the time that we spent)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girl, friend
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
I'm about to give you away for someone else to take
I'm about to give you away for someone else to take
We keep repeating mistakes for souvenirs
And we've been in between the days for years
And I know that

"Put your hands up you're surrounded"
They're circling me
'Cause I'm a hustler baby
Come on, I bring it on, can't turn it off
Another day I'm gone again without you
Gotta get it while it's good
I know I'm robbin' the hood
Come on, baby come on
Gonna put it over there
White flag in the air
Gonna get my way when I cease the fire
I wanna be with you
I'm droppin' everything
I'm gonna take it easy
No not gonna do a thing
Gonna take it easy
I'm gonna take it easy
No not gonna do a thing
'Cause I know you miss me
Gonna do it, got to get it perfect
And I'm running out of time
Baby please cut in line
Come on, come get me baby, take me home
So tell me, what's so great about perfect?
I'm perfectly wound
I'm gonna throw in the towel
Come on
I'm gonna take it easy
No not gonna do a thing
Gonna take it easy (with you)
I'm gonna take it easy
No not gonna do a thing
'Cause I know you miss me (I miss you)
Got to get a change of scenery
Got to get a taste of greenery
I'm gonna hit and run
A yummy yum yum
Going underground, I'm gonna hide out with out law
Watch out, you might get what you're after
The less I say about it the better
Got to take it easy
I'm gonna take it easy
No not gonna do a thing
Gonna take it easy (with you)
I'm gonna take it easy
No not gonna do a thing
'Cause I know you miss me (I miss yo

Just like the wind takes the leaf from the tree
You always know how to dismantle me
And your sweet persuasion is making me weak
And that's a comment not a compliment
Justification and apologies
Guess I'm susceptible to more tragedy
Cross your heart but there's no guarantees
It's not fair but who's keeping score?
How many times can a promise be broken?
Who taught you how to love?
Are we on the same side?
We know how to play this game
You fall and then I'll catch you
And then you kiss me good night
Close your eyes and think of me
I wanna be with you
Dreaming the same dream
Why you playing around with me?
Are we dreaming the same dream?
Put it away in little compartments
This didn't happen by accident
I've got your back but you're so broken
We always come back for more
How many times can a promise be broken?
Who taught you how to love?
Are we on the same side?
We know how to play this game
You fall and then I'll catch you
And then you kiss me good night
Close your eyes and think of me
I wanna be with you
Dreaming the same dream
Why you playing around with me?
Are we dreaming the same dream?
Who taught you how to love?
Who taught you how to love?
I try, I try, I try to understand
And there must be a good reason
And are we on the same side?
We know how to play this game
You fall and then I'll catch you
And then you kiss me good night
Close your eyes and think of me
I wanna be with you

I'm not your doormat, your floormat
So don't wipe your feet on me
I'm not the only Garibaldi
There's more fish in the sea
I'm not your puppy, nor goldfish
So don't treat me like a pet
I'm not a butterfly, so don't try
To chase me with your net
I'm not your kneaded eraser
So don't you wear me down
I'm not your sledge, sledge hammer
I'm no tool, that you pound
I'm not your blacktop, for hopscotch
So don't jump all over me
I'm not the place where the dogs roam
At the bottom of a tree
Don't you treat me like I have no feelings
Don't you treat me like that, I have feelings
Don't treat me like that
Don't you treat me like that
Don't treat me like that
Don't you treat me like that
I'm not your carefree, nor sugarless
Like the gum on your shoe,
I'm not the ring 'round your finger
you and me
We used to be together
Every day together always
I really feel
I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real,
Well I don't want to know
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry
Things can be broken down
In this world of ours
You don't have to be a famous person
Just to make your mark
A mother can be an inspiration
To her little son
Change his thoughts, his mind, his life,
Just with her gentle hum
So different, yet so the same
Two sisters only have their parents to blame
It's rare that two can get along
But when they do, they're inseparable
Such a blessing comes to few
The sky is full of clouds and
My world's full of people
All different kinds with different ways
It would take a lifetime to explain
Not one's exactly the same
He and she, two different people
With two separate lives
Then you put the two together
And get a spectacular surprise
'Cause one can teach the other one
What she doesn't know
While still the other fills a place inside
He never knew had room to grow
CHORUS
Once in a while I sit back
And think about the planet
Most of the time I trip on it
To kick back and think about
How massive it all is
And how many others are on it
I often think about the world
I started out on the wrong foot
Now I’m not myself
I am Jekyll, I am Hyde
Found this place to hide
Come seek me
Oh, so up and down
So back and forth
So insecure
Can’t get this taste out of my mouth
Swallow it down
Pretend
Hold it, hold it all in
Let it build up
Build a bomb
Blow it, blow it away
Clear it all out
Just end it
I’m just a normal person
Without those problems
When did it change?
Admissions so embarrassing
I’m on the verge of tears again
Hold it, hold it all in
Let it build up
Build a bomb
And blow it, blow it away
Clear it all out
Just end itOh look I took the Band-Aid off
Did I take it off too soon?
Hysterical confession
My big courageous move
Don’t gasp at the predictable
A comforting lie can’t last preordained checklist of this awkward love
It’s so sad
Hold it, hold it all in
Let it build up
Oh, build a bomb
Blow it, blow it away
Step by step I come closer to reaching the top
Every step must be placed do I don't fall off
Looking down to see about how much higher I am
Another cool wind comes through, brushes my skin
The harder I push the tension does grow
I gather my thoughts the further and further I go
With some luck I just might keep on climbing
So better to climb than to face a fall
So high the climb
Can't turn back now
Must keep climbing up to the clouds
Pulling myself up by a rope I better my view
The only thing in sight is what I must do
As I turned I could see myself falling
Which in return gave me stregth for the climb
CHORUS
Although many failed
I must now prevail with no question
Have no time to stop
Onward to the top of the mountain
And I can't turn back now
It's so very high but I can't turn back now
By the way, every little thing about her face
Fills him up, the image so pleasing it could never be erased
Here to stay, embedded in his mind, he wishes they could be together
all the time
By the way she says things, the tone, just to hear her voice
He can't explain, the sound so exciting to him a perfect choice
Here to stay, embedded in his mind, he wishes they could be together all
the time
Crazy independant spanish speaking arty flirty red wine drinking sexy tomboy
With a natural way of thinking carefree innocent she's slightly sneaky
Confident and proud from another country has her way lives for today
By the way, she's far away
By the way, holding her, hugging her can feel so warm
Just think about it, two bodies embracing, creating love in this form
Here to stay, embedded in his mind, he wishes they could be together all the
time
Crazy independant spanish speaking arty flirty red wine drinking sexy tomboy
With a natural way of thinking crazy
Then she kissed him and she went away
Far across to San Francisco Bay
You'd think that she would think again
And only want to be with him
Regardless of things that pull her far away, she's far away...
At the end of the day you are worn out, and too tired to sleep
But then you do dream of wonderful things
That you might do, right on through to the next day
And then you wake up
The sun's on your face
You're stretchin' while you're sayin'
It's a Brand New Day!
It's a brand new day and the sky is clear
So let's come together, everybody cheer
Come out people from everywhere
Let's see your faces, the day we'll share
Celebrate a Brand New Day Everyday!
Call out to the workers and the children in the schools
It's a day of celebration so put down your tools and
Celebrate a Brand New Day Everyday!
Come see the mountains and come see the shores
Mother nature is calling so climb aboard to
Celebrate a Brand New Day Everyday!
At the end of the day there is no doubt you are worn out
But then you do dream of wonderful things
That you might do the next day
And then you wake up
The sun's on your face
You're stretchin' while you're sayin'
It's a Brand New Day!
