CHORUS:
Does he wash up, never wash up,
Does he clean up, no he never cleans up,
Does he brush up, no never brushed up,
he does nothing, the boy does nothing.

Hide me from the glitter
The part of me that can't dissolve
Cos I don't wanna feel bitter
And taste it deep within my soul

Im just a girl who dreams of singing (yeah)
Who wants the adulation most
What am I trying to conform to
Why am i making frineds with ghosts

Been chasing a ghost that doesn't exist
It's haunting my soul, I'm scared and alone
Been running away, no way to resolve
How did I get here, how can I get home

Sometimes I drift away
I melt into another place
It's a fraction of my mind
And no it doesn't need a face
I meditate I find the light
Put the wrong I've done to right
It is part of giving time to
Get the best I can in life

Been chasing a ghost that doesn't exist
It's haunting my soul, I'm scared and alone
Been running away, no way to resolve
How did I get here, how can I get home

Fly over me, make it clear, help me seen
No more turning back now
Cos I'm where I should be
No longer a I lost in a deep fantasy
I followed on and carried on now
elp me believe that the things that I need
Are high up with you
So much bigger than me
The story is written before I could breathe
Stay here beside me, help me to see

Been chasing a ghost that doesn't exist
It's haunting my soul, I'm scared and alone
Been running away, no way to resolve
How did I get here, how can I get home

Been chasing a ghost that doesn't exist
It's haunting my soul, I'm scared and alone
Been running away, no way to resolve
How did I get here, how can I get home
How can I get
How can I get
How can I get home

Baby, Baby, Oh
Do you want to see me
Never really want to fight the feeling
And I like the colour of your eyes
Baby baby
Many times the words are spoken
No doubt somebody will decide

Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on
Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on

Maybe you don't wanna be here
Cos time after time gets riddled
And I know the price you've paid turn away
Someday everything you want
And desire
To find another way move higher
And I know the price you've paid turn away

Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on
Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on

Maybe you don't wanna be you
Cos everything we do gets mirrored
And I know the price you've paid get away
Someday everything you want and desire
Will be the thing that gets you higher
Cos I know the price you've paid turn away

Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on
Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on

It's a flashback baby
Woo woo woo
You got me seeing things
I never would see before
And now I flashback
I've hit the roof
And now you're loving it
And you're wanting it
I'm not losing it over you boy
Flash baby woo woo woo
You got me seeing things
I never would see before
And now I flashback
I've hit the roof
And now you're loving it
And you're wanting it
I'm not losing it over you boy

Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on
Play me
And strum me like a guitar
Play me
You make me wanna ooh ah
Play me
Oh baby baby keep me moving
On and on and on

There's a part that doesn't even work at all
Ran out of power cause I left it on
But there's a part that still believes in love
But now it's turning cold

Cause I let somebody handle
and they made it hurt again
Cause they did it so much damage
Never thought it would run again
But I found the pieces
every single one
and put them back

Never wanna go through that again (Oh No say no no say never wanna say no no)
Fall through if I hand it over to you
could you held my heart
But if I hand it over to you
Would you be careful (careful, careful, careful )

When you're close my heart is way above the ground
But then it falls when you're not around
It beats and it pounds
I can't turn it down
And now I'm afraid

Cause I let somebody handle
and they made it hurt again (yeah)
Cause they did it so much damage
Never thought it would run again (no)
But I found the pieces
every single one
and put them all back

Never wanna go through that again (Oh No say no no say never wanna say no no)
Fall through if I hand it over to you
could you held my heart
But if I hand it over to you
Would you be careful

you got so many things about you
and I don't have the words to say
Cause my heart is doing the talking
Can't you hear it's calling your name

I wanna hand it over
Hand it over to you
I wanna hand it over
Fall through if I hand it over to you
could you held my heart
But if I hand it over to you
Would, would you be careful

Fall through if I hand it over to you
could you held my heart
But if I hand it over to you
Would you be careful

Ooh if I hand it over
Fall through if I hand it over to you
could you held my heart

Have you felt the pain
Of a love so deep
Yo think your heart might break?
Has someone touched your soul
So deep inside
Did you feel your whole world stop
The moment that you looked into their eyes?
Oh, do you know what it's like?

Do you know the way it feels
When you love someone so bad
You can't think of nothing else
But the touch of their hand
And you wanna walk away
But no, you know you can't
Do you know the way it feels?

Have you had those nights when you can't sleep
'cos that picture of their face is all you see
You know you need that love
Like you need air
And you find it hard to breathe
Sometines when you just never sleep, and then
Oh, you know it's just not fair

Do you know the way it feels
When you love someone so bad
You can't think of nothing else
But the touch of their hand
And you wanna walk away
But no, you know you can't
Do you know the way it feels?

Do you have a clue what I'm going through?
Do you know what it's like when you feel like you're just about to lose your mind, baby?

Do you know the way it feels
When you love someone so bad
You can't think of nothing else
But the touch of their hand
And you wanna walk away
But no, you know you can't

Do you know the way it feels
When you love someone so bad
You can't think of nothing else
But the touch of your hand
And when I wanna walk away
But no, you know I can't
Do you know the way it feels?

As much as I've been tryna say
As much as I appear OK
Been holdin' on
Pretending like nothing's wrong
There's many things I wanna see
But first of all, I gotta see me
'Cuz I can't breathe

*Now that we're over
Life's getting colder
Trying so hard to feel the sun

Can I begin to re-live my life?
Release all the pain inside?
Over
Done now
I wanna love again
Everyday is a different vibe
Up & down like a playground ride
Over
Done now
How can I begin? (oh oh oh)
How can I begin? (oh oh oh)
I'm not tryna win (oh oh oh)
How can I begin (oh oh oh)
To love again?

Situated in my bed
Pictures running through my head
Some are good
Some wish I never took, no, no
Probability of me
Feeling down & lonely
I'm no longer scared

*repeat

Can I begin to re-live my life & release all the pain inside?
Over
Done now
I wanna love again
Everyday is a different vibe
Up & down like a playground ride
Over
Done now
How can I begin? (oh oh oh)
How can I begin? (oh oh oh)
I'm not tryna win (oh oh oh)
How can I begin
To love again?

Hold on
When all the hope is gone
I'm starting at the ending & I'll just move on
Fall down
Still wearing my crown
Nothing's gonna hurt me 'cuz what comes around goes around
What comes around goes around, baby
Can I begin to re-live my life & release all the pain inside?
Over
Done now
How can I begin? (oh oh oh)
How can I begin? (oh oh oh)
I'm not tryna win (oh oh oh)
How can I begin
To love again?

Let's get creative
Thinking you could be my Romeo tonight
I bet you want to taste it
I got what you've been looking for
Come with me, alright
Let's get creative
Think of all the things we'd like to do and say
To get syncopated
Body close to body till harmony
They say

Italians do it better
Italians do it better
They say Italians do it better
You proved them wrong, you do it better

Because everything I want I get
And baby baby yeah you're next, you bet
Everything I want I get
Tell me if you can handle it

Slow down, I think I love this, baby
Throw down, don't keep me waiting
All night I know you want this, baby,
Playing around, hear what I'm saying
They say

Italians do it better
Italians do it better
They say Italians do it better
You proved them wrong, you do it better

Because everything I want I get
And baby baby yeah you're next, you bet
Everything I want I get
Tell me if you can handle it, I guess
Every part of me says yes, oh yes
And baby I don't ever want regrets, you bet
Everything I want I get, oh yeah
Tell me if you can handle it

Cos lipstick's all the kissing,
Baby feel this, ain't got time for hugging
Come and take it, want you more than ever
Make me feel alive
Feel the vibe

Italians do it better
Italians do it better
They say Italians do it better
You proved them wrong, you do it better

Because everything I want I get
And baby baby yeah you're next, you bet
Everything I want I get, oh yes
Tell me if you can handle it, I guess
Every part of me says yes, oh yes
And baby I don't ever want regrets, you bet
Everything I want I get, oh yeah
Tell me if you can handle it

Oh oh, I'm a girl who can't say no
When it's you who says "let's go"
Keep the smile upon my face,
Don't let it go because it feels good
Oh oh, I'm a girl who can't say no
When it's you who says "let's go"
Keep the smile upon my face,
Don't let it go because it feels good...

Verse
So you did it, do it again
Who you kidding, ten out of ten
Yeah you did it, do it again,
In a minute, I'll tell you when
Little pictures in my mind, but I
Got to make it on my own, if i
Try to fake it, it's a crime, cus I
Have my conscious saying take me home

Chorus
But, ooh baby I like it like that,
Touch me, touch me
Before I turn back,
Ooh baby I like it that way,
Touch me, touch me
A little this way,
Ooh baby I like it like that,
Touch me, touch me
Before I turn back,
Ooh baby I like it that way,
Touch me, touch me
A little this way.

Try to fake it, it's a crime, cus I
Have my conscious saying take me home

Chorus

In life the things that we try don't work the first time
It's okay, you've gotta start again, rewind the tape babe
Get paid, yeah you made a mistake, but you're telling the story
It's okay, take a break cos tomorrow's a brand new day

So I'm looking high in every place
And following everything within my heart
Thought I could make a difference
I feel like I am falling from the start

Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go

It's hard to say this but
I feel I've fallen down, fallen down, fallen down
It's hard to say this babe, feel the time has come around
Waited too long, waited far too long

So I'm looking high in every place
And following everything within my heart
Thought I could make a difference
I feel like I am falling from the start

Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go

And I'm just cool, so cool
Just the way I like it
Cool, yea-e-ah, so cool

Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go
Don't baby ever let me go

In terms of lies and filth
I don't amount to much
My soul is sugar sweet
With an angelic touch
But every single boy who thinks
I'm worth a try
Well I'd like to give him one in the eye
I've had enough of giving
Now I'm on the take
I'm changing my religion
For my poor heart's sake
Had it up to here, I'll take a running jump
If any boy comes near

I'm through with love,
It didn't do much for me
I'm through with love, as if you really care
I'm through with love
So honey please don't call me
I'm through with love, mon cher

I had the chance to think
About the whole shebang
And come to the conclusion
That it's not my thing
A word to the wise, keep out of site
My bark ain't nothing on my bite
I'm sure it isn't me but that I can't be sure
It seems cupid's arrow
Always hits the board
Had it up to here, I'll take a running jump
If any boy comes near

I'm through with love,
It didn't do much for me
I'm through with love, as if you really care
I'm through with love
So honey please don't call me
I'm through with love, mon cher

To boldly go where no girl's gone before
I'm packing up and heading out the door
Heavens above
I'm through with love
It didn't do much for me
Do do do do do do do

I'm through with love,
It didn't do much for me
I'm through with love, as if you really care
I'm through with love,
So honey please don't call me
I'm through with love, mon cher

Do do do do do do do

Listen up

Little girls gather 'round
Let me tell you all about my day
I got blown around
By a big bad wolf's gaze

As I took a little trip to town
Took the merry-go-round again
At first I was sippin' the tea
Then I was sittin' on the coast of Spain

Hey, then, then I was all confused
No, I didn't know where I was
Might as well be a fairytale
So I picked I would be in Oz

Then, then I was pullin' the tricks
I was puttin' them on the rock
I said, "Oh, my God, we're gettin' raw
It's time to turn it up"

You're shady
Don't wanna live another day with you, day with you
So shady
Can't even think about seein' you, 'bout seein' you

He's a mystery to me
But I'll get you on your knees, knees
He's a mystery to the street
Oh, with a hand clap we're gonna get into the beat

He's a mystery to me
But I'll get you on your knees, knees
He's a mystery to the street
Oh, with a hand clap we're gonna get into the beat

H-h-here we go now
H-h-here we go now
Zip, a, dee, doo, dah, ah, zip, a, dee, day
Oh, my, my what a wonderful way, hey

Talk about gettin' down and out
Everything in your program canceled out
I know you're questionin' and figurin' out
But do you wanna play pain or the twist and shout?

Everybody gonna rock n' roll
We're pullin' like a mad lever, out of control

Everything that you said was no, no
And everything that we did was so, so
And everywhere we went we'd roll
And do you wanna play Twister or maybe Polo?

Think it over like a game of chess
If you wanna win the test, gotta beat the best
What you gonna do when we do the limbo
Now what you gonna say when I switch the tempo?

You're shady
Don't wanna live another day with you, day with you
So shady
Can't even think about seein' you, 'bout seein' you

He's a mystery to me
But I'll get you on your knees, knees
He's a mystery to the street
Oh, with a hand clap we're gonna get into the beat

He's a mystery to me
But I'll get you on your knees, knees
He's a mystery to the street
Oh, with a hand clap we're gonna get into the beat

We're gonna show you how
This is the jump off, we wanna see you jump, oh
Time for the night, jump off, wanna see you jump, oh

Mmm, we gonna show you how
This is the jump off
Gonna show you now, this is the jump off
We wanna see you jump, oh

He's a mystery to me
But I'll get you on your knees, knees
He's a mystery to the street
Oh, with a hand clap we're gonna get into the beat

He's a mystery to me
But I'll get you on your knees, knees
He's a mystery to the street
Oh, with a hand clap we're gonna get into the beat
