There's no use being headstrong with a heart so weak but you insist on walking through your injuries Let me walk Let me... Oh let me come inside where I can rid you of your strife With no one else in sight I can keep you through the night, child And should this cost my life what a pretty way to die If home is where the heart is, it's in disrepair So take my broken hands, and I'll give what I can spare Let me work Until your fear subsides I would not leave your side, no Until your tears have dried I would not close my eyes And should this cost my life what a pretty way to die

Two wrongs don't make it right, and two half truths are still a lie, but you keep your head held high like you've kept your pride See, but nobody told you to talk! you just decided to play the part and I am sorry that you feel distraught, but it was all your fault But nobody's watching you now so shed all your worries and doubts 'cause nobody's watching you now Terrified of the light you covertly plan your outdoor life but with every secret you hide, there's a part that dies See, but nobody told you to walk! you just started moving without the heart and I am sorry you decided to start, but it was on your mark. But nobody's watching you now so shed all your worries and doubts 'cause nobody's watching you now

Well I opened my heart under the stars down by Barton Springs Yeah I caught your eye sitting outside underneath the tree Well you pursed your lips, you worked them hips to sit down next to me Yeah you touched my leg and filled my head with a hollywood movie scene Still I figured I would let you know That I am strong enough to pick you up and to sweep you off your feet And if you want you could come back home with me... Well holy roller, I can't control you make me so week at the knees Let's just go for a drive down Riverside. See what's in store for me Yeah 'cause judging by your eyes, it looks like we should try our hands at hide and seek 'Cause from head to toe, your body shows your the kind who plays for keeps Still I figured I would let you know That I am strong enough to pick you up and to sweep you off your feet And if you want you could come back home with me... Yeah, I am strong enough to pick you up and to sweep you off your feet And if you want you could come back home with me...

How 'Bout It 05:18
If you're a flower on the wall You're certainly the finest rose of them all And if your pedals start to whither and fall, You just give me a call. Or just put on your summer dress Let the sunshine take care of the rest Or just lay your head on my chest, girl I don't mind How 'bout we paint this town some shade of red How 'bout we come back and explore my bed? How 'bout we lose our minds, get out of our heads? How 'bout we ditch regrets for the lives we've led? Yeah, how 'bout it? It don't matter if it starts to rain You'll still be pretty, just wet and plain And we can let all of our clothes stain Like we're both insane. Or just make a dash to my car You tell me how to drive, tell me how far See as long as we ain't apart, girl I don't mind. How 'bout we paint this town some shade of red? How 'bout we come back and explore my bed? How 'bout we lose our minds, get out of our heads? How 'bout we ditch regrets for the lives we've led? How 'bout we take heart in being glad? How 'bout we love so hard it drives us mad? How 'bout we ditch being sorry and sad? How 'bout I just tell you that I want you bad? How 'bout we slow this down? How 'bout we do something to fix that frown? How 'bout we ditch this god forsaken town? We can go home to drink and let the sorrows drown How 'bout we kiss like the world would end? How 'bout I get real, don't play pretend? How 'bout I shut up, and I just press send? I will tell you that I want to be more than friends. Yeah, how 'bout it?

She took me by surprise See she was smart and did not strike until she saw Until she saw the whites of my eyes, I swear to God If I had known she'd be the type to turn me on Then I'd step off that firing line But that Texas summer rain feels so nervous and warm But it makes her body shine like a beacon meant to warn The clouds they sweat with anticipation of the oncoming war Between who we want to be, and what we already are She took me by surprise... It took me by surprise How the days and weeks went by like flashes of light So warm and bright they left me blind, And when the smoke came to rest The truth it hit like cannon fire straight through my chest And I woke up in the coldest sweat You see, she slipped into my heart. I'm still dodging all these mines But I would not mind these dreams if I'd just wake up feeling right But I am tired of all these nights where I can't sleep, and lord I've tried I guess I'll waste my worried time trying to get back in her sights She took my surprise... Take me by surprise...
