The wilted flowers that I gave
Were not as nice as your bouquet
All the lyrics that I wrote
Not as smart as the words you spoke
The starlight above my hometown
Ain't as bright as the star I've found
Every drawing that I drew
Was never ever as cute as you

Serious as a heart attack
I'm looking in my almanac
I gotta find out all the things
And find out where she got her wings
Shimmy shimmy quarter turn
I feel like I will never learn
How can I check lost and found
When I'm too busy getting down

(Wasn't ready for that one)

(Take it back to square one)

[x2]
Gotta get it back to
A backup plan to find you
Start acceleration
Take it back to square one

I swear that I'm not kidding
We're just trying to fit in
With all the other answers
Questions never confirmed
States that keep us far apart
Track the beating of my heart
Mark the places in my book
With photographs we never took
I swear that I'm not kidding
The night time is so pretty
With all the stars above your eyes
I'm sneaking out and making ties
States that keep us far apart
Track the beating with a chart
Mark the rhythms that I shook
Everytime I caught you look

[x4]
Gotta get it back to
A backup plan to find you
Start acceleration
Take it back to square one

[Quiet voice sounds like Shao Kahn's voice from Mortal Kombat 3 computer game:]
Flawless victory

You promised me starry night skies
They just remind me of your shining bright eyes
I'm missing your voice at night time
This sepa-separation seem-seems a sad crime

B-b-b-but don't don't don't think think think I forgot you you you
Are are are oh so sweet I I I - I knew

If only you were here
Things would be more magical

If I was there
Right now would be more radical

You're so not near
I'm wishing I could place a call

And feel closer to you ooo-ooo

The miles of air and road and land
That separate me from all my plans
Were havin' havin' havin' havin' fun
But something something tells me I miss someone

B-but I hope hope hope you didn't forget me I couldn't
Forget you the whole time I always knew I knew

Say that you're into me, let me know how it will be
If you don't know just say so
I'll wait till the perfect time think of all the perfect lines
I'll make sure if I let you know

We've got movies on our list to see
Things to do just you and me
Calls to make from here to there and back
We've got fun to have and days to spend
Stars to see or just pretend
At least for now just keep things right on track

. . .



Visit you at Baskin Robins all the time
To let you know that I am yours and you are mine
So we can take long walks through central park
And hold each others hands to fight the dark

So you know that you're never on your own
So you know that you're never on your own

My bonnie lies over the ocean
My bonnie lies over sea
And every night at 2 am
I wonder why can't she lie next to me.

Remember all the time you let me walk you to class
And you would kiss my cheek,
I'd never have to ask
You're going away in late September
But here's a thanks for a summer I'll always remember.

So you know that you're never on your own
So you know that you're never on your own

My bonnie lies over the ocean
My bonnie lies over sea
And every night at 2 am
I wonder why can't she lie next to me

I hope you listen to me every night before you go to sleep
And know that someone in HB is thinking of you, Bonnie

[x2]
My bonnie lies over the ocean
My bonnie lies over sea
And every night at 2 am
I wonder why can't she lie next to me

(Prom with Jesse)

Prom is coming
It's on the 17th of May
And I've got a message
I want to convey

I'll buy a nice suit
And you can wear a pretty dress
You will watch me dance
And realize I am the best

[Chorus]
Will you go to prom with me
(And dance [x6])
Will you go to prom with me
(And dance [x6])

We'll slow dance
And fast dance
And clap, clap, clap our hands (clap, clap, clap)

My moves will be so hot
You'll have to stand under the fan

This dance will be better
Than your favorite ice cream
I cut like a knife
And I dance just like a dream

[Chorus x2]

Lets go to prom
Ahhh... let's go to prom
Lets go to the prom [x2]

(I buy nothing
Jessie buy nothing)

[Chorus x4]

Prom with Jesse

[Verse]

Dear Jamie I've got a letter I would like to send
It's lacking strings of words with punctuation at the end.
Should I trust this dialect?
To convey the right effect?

Dear Jamie I've got some things I'd like to set in pen
I would have used a pencil but lead's just not permanent.
Should I trust my printer's ink?
To express the things I think?

[Chorus]

Every page I tried my best to think of something to contest
With inside jokes and all the folks could have much more to say

[Verse]

Dear Jamie this envelope will represent my heart
I'll seal it, send it off and wish it luck with its depart.
This stamp will be every action that carry my affection
Across the air and land and sea
Should I trust the postage due?
To deliver my heart to you?

[Chorus]

Every page I tried my best to think of something to contest
With inside jokes and other folks who have much more to say
Every page I tried my best to think of something to contest
With inside jokes and other folks who have much more to say

Give you all I can
Flower and a hand
I hope this helps you see
Signed Sincerely me.

And hold each others hands to fight the dark

So you know that you're never on your own
So you know that you're never on your own

My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the sea
And every night at 2 A.M.
I wonder why can't she lie close to me

Remember all the times you let me walk you to class
You would kiss my cheek, I never had to ask
You're going away in late September
And heres the thanks for a summer I will always remember

So you know that you're never on your own
So you know that you're never on your own

My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the sea
And every night at 2 A.M.
I wonder why can't she lie close to me

Baby girl, I hope you've been thinking about me
Cause I've been thinking about you
Ain't nothing gonna keep us apart girl
Just let the music guide you
Let the music bring you back to me
Here it goes girl
Bring it back home

My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the sea

And every night at 2 A.M.
I wonder why can't she lie close to me

My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the sea
Every night at 2 A.M.
I wonder why can't she lie close to
