Diana DeGarmo Album

There's a girl in New York City
Skylines no longer pretty
Bound to destination anywhere
She grew up in California
Big dreams, they tend to own you there
Now she's building cardboard castles in the air
*fade*

She was a rainbow once
So colorful but that was once
Now that's impossible to see, to see
With a voice subliminal, It's the only sign she's beautiful
Here's all that's left of her dignity
She goes yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah

There's a girl in New York City
Skylines no longer pretty
Bound to destination anywhere
She grew up in California
Big dreams, they tend to own you there
Now she's building cardboard castles in the air
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

There's a girl in New York City
Skylines no longer pretty
Bound to destination anywhere
She grew up in California
Big dreams, they tend to own you there
Now she's building cardboard castles in the air
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
*fade*

There's a girl in New York City
Skylines no longer pretty
Bound to destination anywhere
She grew up in California
Big dreams, they tend to own you there

Thank you for blue skies
When my head is down you remind me to look up
And thank you for all those times
You believed when others couldn't see
Oh without you where would would I be?
*fade*

I wake up every morning to another crazy day I have to face
And when I'm losing my direction your the one who points me in the right way
You always know when I'm about to fall
Its like you're standing there when I hit that wall
Because of you my eyes are open
And instead of always hoping I have faith today

So thank you for blue skies
When my head is down you remind me to look up
And thank you for all those times
You believed when others couldn't see
Oh without you where would I be?
Oh thank you
Thank you
Thank you
Oh without you where would I be?
*fade*

Thank you for blue skies
When my head is down you remind me to look up
And thank you for all those times
You believed when others couldn't see
Oh without you where would would I be?

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy, but sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel emotional
*fade*

You say I'm just impossible
Totally unpredictable
I'm just a girl get use to it
No big deal
You can't change me why would you try?
I'm no angel but I can make you smile
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy but, sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel emotional

Don't give up
I won't hurt you
Oh, sometimes I'm just a pain
And that's the way it is
That's just the way I am

That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy but, sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me
That's when I feel oh yeah
That's when I need you
Sometimes I get emotional
*fade*

That's just the way I am
Sometimes I feel like crying
Laying down and dying
That's when I need you
Laughing's always easy but sometimes I'm just scared you'll leave me

Don't they know that I'm a hip hop queen
A rock and roll dream
It's all bling bling
Yeah baby ka-ching
Come check me out
I'm bringin down the house
I'm the one that you want and now I'm heaven sent
I'm a little Lynrd Skynrd
Just a little 50 Cent
Just look at me

*fade*

Get into the car
Turn the radio up real far
Shut out the noise
So I can hear my voice
There's a party on down the street
And nobody invited, me cause I got a gig
Baby sittin' my uncle's kids
Why me?
Woe is me

Don't they know that I'm a hip hop queen
A rock and roll dream
It's all bling bling

You were all I never wanted anyhow, yeah
But I sure want you now, yeah
But it's all over now
So it doesn't really matter
Don't know why I feel so shattered
*fade*

It was all a dream so it seems to me now
How to fall in love into the heavens then floating down
Was it all in my head this premonition?
When I look back its hard to tell the difference
Bewteen what really happened
And what I imagined

But it's all over now
So it doesnt really matter
Dont know why I feel so shattered
I shoulda known better
You were all I never wanted anyhow, yeah
And I sure want you now, yeah
But it's all over now
So it doesnt really matter
Don't know why I feel so shattered
I shoulda known better
You were all I ever wanted anyhow, yeah
*fade*

You were all I ever wanted anyhow, yeah
And I sure want you now, yeah
But it's all over now
So it doesn't really matter
Don't know why I feel so shattered

You say you made a big mistake, yes you did
When you threw away the love I gave
Boy, I always knew you'd come 'round again
Looking for the love we made
Go on and cry, here's my shoulder
Why don't you try to imagine that I'd even care?
Go on and cry on my cold shoulder
Oh you left me so sad
And you hurt me so bad
Your turn to cry, cry, cry.

Sometimes love is overrated, yeah
It can be so hard to find a cure
And when a heartbreak is understated
It comes back around
I'm sure oh, oh, oh
Go on and cry, heres my shoulder, my shoulder
Why dont you try to imagine that I'd even care?
Go on and cry on my cold shoulder
Oh you, you left me so sad
And you hurt me so bad
Your turn to cry
Go on and cry
*fade*

Go on and cry, here's my shoulder
Why dont you try to imagine that I'd even care?
Go on and cry on my cold shoulder
Oh you...

Dreams are just dreams
When it's dark inside to hand
And all it takes is a little help from you
You know it's true
That dreams are for real
When you see what I see
And you feel it too
We took the longest road
Just to make it harder
Let's do it all again
It only makes us stronger

Dreams
I guess I just made a dream
Nothin' else matters
As long as we believe
I'm lookin' at you
And I see my life
Passing before my eyes
And when the journey's over
And all my dreams come true
I'll dream of you

You're the one
That keeps my hope alive
My vision clear
I'll spend my life with you
Conquer fear
We'll make it through

Nothin' else matters
As long as we believe
I'm lookin' at you
And I see my life
Passing before my eyes
And when the journey's over
And all my dreams come true
I'll dream of you
I'll dream of you

Baby cried the day the circus came to town
'cause she didn't want parades just passin' by her
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
While she danced without a net upon the wire
I know a lot about 'er 'cause, you see
Baby is an awful lot like me

Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside, learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all

Baby saw that when they pulled that big top down
They left behind her dreams among the litter
The different kind of love she thought she'd found
There was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter
But baby can't be broken 'cause you see
She had the finest teacher-that was me-I told 'er

Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all

Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost made it

Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
