Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
La da da da da da d
Uhmmm...

You walk on by
Don't blink an eye
It's kinda funny
Got me wonderin' why
Maybe I'm just not your type
Or maybe I'm your Mr. Right
I can be your Romeo
You could be my Juliet
Maybe I'm the one that you'll never forget
I know that I'm just passing through
But I might stay for you

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us
So why don't we
Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, Give it up
Oh oh

Excuse me miss I don't mean to stare
You got me hypnotized with your long, brown hair
And your hazel eyes and your don't care smile
Would it be rude to ask if I could stay a while
I don't mean to intrude I had to say "Hello"
'Cause if I never did then I would never know
I may be just passing through
But I might stay for you

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us
So why don't we
Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, Give it up
Oh oh

And every second that passes me by
And we're wasting precious time
So let's find out what lies between
You and me and the more we say "Hello"
Let's get this right

So why don't we
Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, Give it up
Oh oh

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us

You've only got one life, one life to live
I wanna give it everything I got
Who knows this might be it for us

So you got to
Live it up
Oh live it up darlin'
Give it up now
My heart is starvin'
Live it up now
Give it up
Oh oh

Live it up,
Live it up darlin'
Give it up
My heart is starvin'
Live it up, Give it up
Oh oh

Sweet Serendipity
Ohhhhhhh, ohhhhhhh!

I ain't got no car
And I've got one pair of jeans
They've been stretched too far
And now they're weak at the seams
I can't say what's next
And I got nothin' up my sleeve
But I don't lose my head
Cause' it ain't really up to me

And I'm doing just fine
I'm always landing on my feet,
In the nick of time,
And by the skin of my teeth
I ain't gonna stress
Cause' the worst ain't happened yet
Something's watching over me like
Sweet Serendipity

Oh, oh, oh oh oh, ohhhhhhh!
Sweet Serendipity
Oh, oh, oh oh oh, ohhhhhhh!

I don't ask for alot
No nothing more than I need
Cause' I love what I got
Don't need to play no lottery
I just wanna' be strong
Happy end of the road
I don't want to hold on
I want the strength to let go

And I'm doing just fine
I'm always landing on my feet,
In the nick of time,
And by the skin of my teeth
I ain't gonna stress
Cause' the worst ain't happened yet
Something's watching over me like
Sweet Serendipity

And what will be will be, in the nick of time,
And by the skin of my teeth
I ain't gonna stress
Cause' the worst ain't happened yet
Something's watching over me like
Sweet Serendipity

Oh, oh, oh oh oh, ohhhhhhh!
Sweet Serendipity
Oh, oh, oh oh oh, ohhhhhhh!
Now Sweet Serendipity

Don't look fate can only find you
Can't choose for something to surprise you
Set sail without a destination
See where the wind will take you
You never know when you're gonna fall
But I'm not worried, no I'm not worried at all

And I'm doing just fine
I'm always landing on my feet,
In the nick of time,
By the skin of my teeth
I ain't gonna stress
Cause' the worse ain't happened yet
Something's watching over me

And I'm doing just fine
I'm always landing on my feet,
In the nick of time,
And by the skin of my teeth
I ain't gonna stress
Cause' the worst ain't happened yet
Something's watching over me like
Sweet Serendipity

Oh, oh, oh oh oh, ohhhhhhh!
Sweet Serendipity
Oh, oh, oh oh oh, ohhhhhhh!
Sweet Serendipity

Don't look fate can only find you
Can't choose for something to surprise you
Set sail without a destination

Sweet, sweet
Sweet, sweet
Sweet, sweet
Sweet Serendipity
Sweet, sweet
Sweet, sweet
Sweet Serendipity

I don't know
Sweet, Sweet Serendipity

And when I woke up in a different apartment
Having flashbacks since I get up off the carpet
And I say, hold on, I think I remember
Over a couple of shots in an old Jew box I met her

I say, call me crazy, but what am I to do
I don't know your name, but I'll never get over you

It's got to be love,
I've never been so sure of this before
I know you think so
It's got to be love
Cause everything is upside down and
My knees are weak, my heart skipped a beat
All because it's gotta be love
It's gotta be love, oh no no

I keep on lookin' over my shoulder
I swear I hear your voice, but no I'm just hungover
I keep searchin' out through all of my pockets
Until I found your name and number I won't drop it

I say, call me crazy, but what am I to do
I wonder if you feel the same, cause I'll never get over you

It's got to be love
I've never been so sure of this before
I know you think so
It's got to be love
Cause everything is upside down and
My knees are weak, my heart skipped a beat
All because it's gotta be love

I used to laugh at this before
But when you're awondrous
It's so hard, you're lying on the floor
Love, love at first sight was so much more
And this heartache makes my headache
So easy to ignore

It's gotta be love
It's gotta be love, oh no no
Cause I'll never get over you

It's got to be love
I've never been so sure of this before
I know you think so
It's got to be love
Cause everything is upside down and
My knees are weak, my heart skipped a beat
All because it's gotta be love
It's gotta be love
It's gotta be love
It's gotta be love, oh no no
It's gotta be love
Cause it's gotta be love
It's gotta be love
It's gotta be love
It's gotta be love, oh no no
It's gotta be love
It's gotta be love

. . .


I found this faded picture of you and me on Lake Michigan
you were smiling, the wind was blowing in your hair
I think it's been around 5 years,
and everything and nothing's changed
God, I wish that you were here
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin' about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
but without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle
Sometimes I'm not good with words,
but you knew that so I wrote this verse
in hopes that it would someday reach your ears
and I still wonder where you are ,
but it doesn't matter cause it's still too far
The lake has never looked so clear
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin' about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
but without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle
It's hard for me to write this,
Is it hard for you to know that I still care?
Would it kill you to forgive me?
Come on, Isabelle, I know that you're out there
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin' about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
but without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle

Everybody wants to
Looking to the mirror
Feel little better now

And everybody wants to
Notice someone out there
Waiting for you to come around

And I wish that
You could feel it
But you don't use
To believe it
Coz I know that
You can't see it that way
That way

If you could only just stop stop stop running
If you could only take a second to breath it in
Everything that you know would be beautiful
Like you
You know that I never gonna stop stop stop your love
Let's pretend that the world is waking up
Everything that we see is beautiful
Like you
Like you

Everybody wants to
Tell someone their secrets
Why don't you tell me now

Or maybe I can fix this
Then I don't want
You to miss this
Say I'm sorry
Raining down
Yeah

If you could only just stop stop stop running
If you could only take a second to breath it in
Everything that you know would be beautiful
Like you
You know that I never gonna stop stop stop your love
Let's pretend that the world is waking up
Everything that we see is beautiful
Like you

Sometimes is hard to be
Yourself in this crazy world
Sometimes is hard to breath
Yeah [3x]

Everybody wants to
Notice someone out there
Waiting for you to come around
Come around

If you could only just stop stop stop running
If you could only take a second to breath it in
Everything that you know would be beautiful
Like you
You know that I never gonna stop stop stop your love
Let's pretend that the world is waking up
Everything that we see is beautiful
Like you

Can be beautiful
Like you
Can be beautiful
Like you

Beautiful

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
I wont say a word
cause that only makes it worse
when lies are told and tears are shed
but it aint over for us yet
just get that outta your head

well i know we had our disconnections
save us both from going different directions
give me a minute, give me a chance to see

i wont let you leave
i know right now you're mad but you will see
why is it so hard for you to believe?
oh believe me every little thing is gonna me ok
my dear, as long as you stay here

you dont need to cry
try to remember better times
like stayin up so late at night
cigarettes and drinkin wine
hey, that was the life

i know we had our disconnections
save us both from going different directions
give me a minute, give me a chance to see

i wont let you leave
i know right now you're mad but you will see
why is it so hard for you to believe?
oh believe me every little thing is gonna be ok
my dear, as long as you stay here

so say what you want to as long as you don't go
all that i've given is my love and i've only got more
i feel like we've been down this road before
stay here, stay here

i wont let you leave
i know right now you're mad but you will see
why is it so hard for you to believe?
oh believe me every little thing is gonna be ok
my dear, as long as you stay here!

. . .


I'm thinking about I'm holding you
There's nothing much that I can do
The seconds and the minutes
The minutes and the hours
The future is his and the past is ours

They tell me I should just move on
It's easier said than done
The only thing left keeping me company just me and my jealousy

Lying awake at night
You keep running through my mind
Jealous of the hand that you hold
The city in the winter never seemed so cold
Nothing left of me just me and my jealousy
Just me and my jealousy

You said there really isn't much to say
But we'll be better off this way
So tell me is it better while you're lying in bed
I wonder if you ever think of me instead

Then I got nothing left to prove
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
The only thing left keeping me company just me and my jealousy

Lying awake at night
You keep running through my mind
Jealous of the hand that you hold
Chicago in the winter never seemed this cold
Nothing left of me
Just me and my jealousy

I'm jealous of the pillow where you lay your head
The only thing you're lying with is my regret, my regret
And I'm jealous of the way he says your name
I should of held you tighter but I let you walk away

I lie awake at night
You keep running through my mind...

This needs to end tonight
I can't get you off my mind
Jealous of the hand that you hold
Chicago in the winter never seemed this cold
Nothing left of me
Just me and my jealousy, my jealousy, my jealousy
Me and my jealousy

. . .


Things like this don't happen to me
Everything used to be so ordinary
From the day that I met you
Everything's changed

Feel like Im dreaming with my eyes open wide
Baby you make me feel so good inside
What you've done to me is kinda hard to explain

Like standin' in Times Square on New Year's Eve
And no one is around
Like lookin up on a summer's day
And seein' snowflakes fallin' down
Like danicin' on the Brooklyn bridge by perfect candlelight
That's how you make me feel every time you say you're mine.

Mmm Mm

It seems like just yesterday
That I didn't even know your name
And now i cant imagine life without you here, my dear
What you do to me
Its something new to me, yeah
All I'm tryin to say is every time you're near

It's like standin' in Times Square on New Year's Eve
And no one is around
Like lookin up on a summer's day
And seein' snowflakes fallin' down
Like danicin' on the Brooklyn bridge by perfect candlelight
That's how you make me feel every time you say you're mine.

Mmmm

And everyday it feels like Im falling in love with you again
It gets better every time
And the lights of the city they fall all around me
They cant make me feel like this
Cuz nothing compares to dancing with you on the brooklyn bridge

Mmm Mmm Mmm

It's like standin' in Times Square on New Year's Eve
And no one is around
Like lookin up on a summer's day
And seein' snowflakes fallin' down
Like danicin' on the Brooklyn bridge by perfect candlelight
That's how you make me feel every time you say you're mine.

Mmm Mm

. . .


standing at the door
like a thousand times before
right here on the edge of something beautiful and new
you help me to let go
find some room to breathe
close your eyes and hold your breathe
i promise you will see
angels and wings
balloons have strings
but you and i need anything
we'll just go to a place that no one knows

my feet can barely touch the ground
floating up so high
I'm never coming down
so take my hand
only you and me
together we will be
weightless
weightless

its not hard to figure out why my heads up in the clouds
from way up here its clear to me what angels dream about
church bells will ring
the melody sings
you and i will have everything, we can touch the sky
we'll be so alive

my feet can barely touch the ground
floating up so high
im never coming down
so take my hand
its only you and me
together we will be
weightless
weightless

i can be flying over cities, flying over oceans, over streets
we can call the stars our home
tell me how far do you want to go

my feet can barely touch the ground
floating up so high
im never coming down
so take my hand
its only you and me
in this mystery
you and me
together we will be
weightless
weightless

. . .


we fell asleep under the stars
and you woke up in my arms
and the rain and the rain and the rain
was falling down trickled off our finger tips, oh oh

felt like the earth stood still when i kissed your lips
i get chills chills chills just thinking about this
you were melting into me
and i was melting into you
it was the kind of moment that only time could kill
it was the perfect day, the day the earth stood still
the day the earth stood still
another night goes by
without you by my side
oh and i dream and i dream and i dream
that we're back, that were back to where we were
take me back to hwere we were

felt like the earth stood still when i kissed your lips
i get chills chils chills just thinking about this
you were melting into me
and i was melting into you
it was the kind of moment that only time could kill
it was the per


do you ever think of me when you're lying there alone?
do you know, do you know what I'm going through?
cuz i cant seem to let it go, and i wonder if you know, if you know...
that a part of me is still waiting for you...

felt like the earth stood still when i kissed your lips
i get chills chills chills just think about this
you were melted into me, and i was melting into you
it was the kind of moment only time could kill
it was the perfect day, the day the earth stood still

. . .


I used to make you cry,
But I haven't smiled since you left.
Can you undo goodbye?
It's a word I wish I could forget.

(Chorus)
You told me you love me,
& I try to move on,
But it's hard to get up when you fall.
So I wrote a song about love,
But it's nothing at all.

It was you who took the blame,
even though we both knew who was wrong.
I'm calling out your name
every time that I'm singing this song.
Cause it's over.
Yeah, it's over.

(Chorus)
You told me you love me,
But it's time to move on.
It's so hard to get up when you fall.
So I wrote a song about love,
But it's nothing at all.

(Oooohhhhhh)

Cause it's over.
Yeah, it's over.

You told me you love me,
& I try to move on.
It's so hard to get up when you fall.
So I wrote a song about love,
& it's sad cause it won't be enough.
So I wrote a song about love,
but it's nothing at all.
