Tristan Prettyman Album

It’s 4 am
The paperboy’s at it again
But I can’t get no sleep
I mean what’s the point?
If I can’t even dream up a dream
That’s worth the keep

And so there’s no need in even going
Cause I’m better off never knowing
You know the media’s getting
Really good at lying
And this time around
I’m not buying

Cause this life is a beautiful one
And though I seen it comin undone
I know most definitely
That it’s gonna be you
It’s gonna be me
So baby keep your head up
Keep it on the up and up
LyricsCause you got all my…
Love love love

Cause we’re all just lovers and takers
Breaking hearts to make the papers
She wants love I told her to stop trying
Cause the reasons for her tears
Aren’t worth crying

And this life is a beautiful one
And though I seen it comin undone
Well I know most definitely
That it’s gonna be you
It’s gonna be me
So baby keep your head up
Keep it on the up and up
Cause you got all my
Love love love

Loving all around me
I think that love has found me
Loving all the time

And when the summer’s here
The waves are crashing
No time for thinking
Don’t even ask me
I’m gonna let it all roll right past me
Cause when I’m here
I’m always happy

And this life is a beautiful one
And though I seen it comin undone
Well I know most definitely
It always works out the way it’s meant to be
So baby keep your head up
Keep it on the up and up
And know that you got all my
Love love love

Ohh no don’t you come at me
With that look you got so down
You got me floating like a bubble
Ever since you came around

And even strangers seem to notice
And all my friends can tell
To keep you comin I just keep on running
But your lovin tripped me and I fell

I hope I always
Always feel this way
Always feel this way

Pushin my buttons like we’re on the elevator
Keep your eyes on this, but savin it for later
Cause we never rushed, and we always took our time
Make sure to make me yours, I’ll make sure to make you mine

And then we’ll always, always
feel this way
Lyricsalways feel this way

Cause you got what I want
You got what I need
Baby I don’t wanna settle for no other
Can’t you see
All you need is me

To always feel this way….

So if you’re wishin on stars
You better go out and get it
Cause you if you want it bad enough
You won’t stop until you have it

Don’t let them tell you
what you can and cannot do
You’ve got to see it through
Like you always knew

It’d feel this way…

Always feel this way
Never gonna change
And always feel this way…

I’m the icing on the cake
I’m the secret ingredient you’re missing
I’m the sidewalk but I’m not complete
And I’m the reason that baby, you’re trippin
Ohh decisions you didn’t make
I’m the chance you chose, not to take
And I’m the one you wish you were kissing
Pray for clear skies tonight
You better start wishin

So you write the title
And I’ll write the chapters
We can read a story
Of a love gone disaster
You write the moral
And I’ll write the lesson
And we can read of love
That kept us, guessing

Cause I am in question
You are in reason
LyricsSoon this will change
Just like the seasons
My leaves will fall
While you’ll turn to cold
And the colors on the ground
Are so bright and so bold
And I’ll make no motion
You’ll hold me tightly
I’ll look at you
As you let me down lightly
The story always ends up like this
Another opportunity
That you’re going to miss

So you write the title
And I’ll write the chapters
We can read a story of a love gone disaster
You write the moral
And I’ll write the lesson
And we can read a love that kept us guessing

But I know you so well
Ohh when are you gonna come around
Ohh but I know you soo well
When are you gonna come around
Ohh ohh ohh
Ohh ohh ohh
Ohh ohh ohh
You want it to be like this
Ohh ohh ohh
I see how it is
Another opportunity that you’re
Gonna miss

These tears stain the wood
Like cups and condensation
I am bound to you
I cannot break the situation
He’s every subject
Of every song
Like the wind carries
He moves me along
And the shadows I can’t run from
They won’t let me go
He’s the ending of a story
That I’ll never know

He’s electric
Can’t forget it
Yeah he’s electric
Don’t forget it

Sometimes he fills me up
Sometimes it’s such a shock
This is more than I bargained for
LyricsMore than I would have bought
You still look at me
With well acquainted eyes
As the memories come flooding back
In a field of butterflies

It’s electric
Don’t forget
Yeah it’s electric
I can’t forget it

I know there’s hope in there
But I wanna walk away
He’s says it’s bright in there
Even in lighter shades of grey
And though it looks like rain
I’m not gonna cry
As the seasons are changing
In your heart
So will I
I will fly

Electric

Oh yes the seasons are changing
Ohh yes the seasons are changing
I’m burning up
I’m burning up
I’m electric

You know you’re stunning
You’re absolutely stunning
And I’m running always running
And now I’m crying
It’s only cause I’m caring
And if you were more daring
Maybe you’d stop staring
And come over and talk to me
Tell me bout how you’ve been waiting so patiently
And how you tried but I just turned away
And I’ll say yeah well you know,
I’m shy that way

Shy that way
Maybe I’m shy that way

Ohh you know you’re stunning
You’re absolutely stunning
But you’re always runnin
But I’ll catch up to you
The way you keep your distance is
LyricsKeeping my interest
So I’ll keep it persistent
Ohh maybe someday
Someway, somehow in some town
We’ll get together and
We’ll break it down
And I’ll ask why you’ve been
so shy, gotta be that way
Maybe baby, oh love, I like it that way

Shy that way
You know I love you so shy,
Shy that way

So keep it comin comin comin comin
Shy that way

There’s always too much talking
And I wanna just keep walking
But I keep staring baby
Keep staring
Though I may not know the right things to say
I’ll get it out to you one day

I’m shy that way
You’re shy that way
Do you like it
Do you like it?
When I’m shy this way?
Yes I like it
Yes I like it
When you’re shy

Shy that way

I like it
I like it shy
You know it’s alright, it’s ok
Cause we’re
Shy that way…

Such a crime
I don’t remember being taken
This love was meant for
Wandering eyes and fakin’
So hot the way you looking
And when he’s on it, man he’s running and he’s booking

Didn’t know what to think in the beginning
But you got me so wet
And then you left me swimming
Keep it coming with the love I can’t resist
I’m so tired but don’t you dare quit

Cause it’s a lie, it’s a crime and it’s just something
That I can’t deny but
You know it looks so good from the outside
It’s a mistake that I’m willing to make
And a promise that I just might break but
Gotta find out how much my heart can take

From the moment I met you
LyricsI knew this love was bound to get you
Well I know I know I know you’re weak that way
Looking out the window and it’s only the beginning
People are talking
And my ears start ringing
But I don’t care what they say
Cause they’ll never know me anyway

Cause it’s a lie, it’s a crime and it’s just something
That I can’t deny but
You know it looks so good from the outside
It’s a mistake that I’m willing to make
And a promise that I just might break
Gotta find out how much my heart can take

And I know what he wants
And I know what he needs
I got the type of love
That’s gonna bring you right down to your knees

Bring you right down to your knees
I’m begging you oh please
I want to be the lover
For your cover
How could you deny
This love so great
Love so grand
If you don’t understand
That this love will take you make you
It’ll mess you maybe break you
But it’ll leave you stronger in the end
And I guess it all depends

Cause it’s a lie, it’s a crime, and it’s just something that I can’t deny
You know it looks so good from the outside
It’s a mistake that I’m willing to make
And a promise that I just might break but
Gotta find out how much my heart can take
Now I’m beggin ya please…

It’s all confirmation
For your imagination
This type of situation
Goes on and on
What to do
How to say
When every little thing
Seems to get in my way

I can’t breathe
And I wish that you couldn’t take your eyes off of me
Ohh but it’s never as easy as it seems
Is it please
Softly before I scream
breathe breathe breathe

You say you adore me
What good could you be for me
And after I’m gone
Wondering where you went wrong
Cause you’re only takin inches
LyricsWhen I’m giving you miles
Did you figure that maybe I wasn’t worth your while?

Well I can’t breathe
And I wish that you couldn’t take your eyes off of me
Ohh but it’s never as easy as it seems
Is it please
Before I

Scream…before I
Scream…breathe breathe breathe

Cause where you got me
Is where you want me
When you had me
but you left me
And I let this go on
for so long

Got me
where you want me
Well you had me
But you left me
And I let this go on
For so long

And I can’t breathe
And I wish that you couldn’t take your eyes off of me
Oh but it’s never as easy as it seems
Is it please…softly before I scream
breathe breathe breathe

Get off work about 4 o'clock
And I’m late again
Cause you'll be here by 6:30
We'll go looking for a close parking spot again
Sitting in a room full of believers
Now you tell me what’s wrong and what’s right
Cause I look over at you baby
And you got your good intentions focused so tight

And now it hurts me so
To have to see you go
To watch these drugs break you down
When there's nothing you can do and no one to get through
Remember all the things you tried to forget

What's wrong with a little bit of experimentation
To open the eyes of the new generation
Well build your world on an empty foundation
And watch it all blow away

Now it hurts me so
LyricsTo have to see you go
To watch these drugs pull you down
When there's nothing we can do and no one can get through
Remember all the things you tried to forget

Well I haven't seen you in a while
You know I miss our talks I miss your smile
Cause the look of innocence is priceless
And baby right now you look so lifeless
And now it hurts me so to have to see you go
To watch this song break you down
When there's nothing we can do
And no one to get through
Remember all the things you tried to forget

And now it hurts me so
To have to see you go
Watch this song break you down

If I could I would be smoke
And I’d float myself out of here
And I’d go wherever you are
And I’d never have to be too far from here
And I’d linger in your fingers
A transparent shade of gray
And watch as you watch me
Slowly fade away
Into the night
Where are you when I need you by my side

Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Get lost in a moment
Wasting time trading smiles
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Come on won’t you waste my time
Baby waste my time
Won’t you waste all my time

LyricsThings are never what they seem
Lately you’re all I dream
Well I’m running but I’m not getting anywhere and
Do you even care?

Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Get lost in a moment
Wasting time trading smiles

Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Come on won’t you waste my time
baby waste my time
Won’t you waste all my time
C’mon and waste all my time

I’m just trying to find my way
Between the glitter and the gray
Baby I just want some time with you
And ohh I swear this time I’ll make it through well well

Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Get lost in a moment
Wasting time trading smiles

Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Come on won’t you waste my time
baby waste my time
Won’t you waste all my time
C’mon and waste all my time

I will sing you a song
I will save you a dance
If you just give me a chance
A little piece of your mind
Little bit of your time
To let it unwind see
What is it I don’t get
Something I never forget
Something good that hasn’t even even started yet
Well it’s so good that it’s bad
And it might be the best damn thing that I ever had

Happen to me
Well you see
I’m still melting
Over you ohh well
I’m still holding on
Baby well well
I’m still melting

Cause I fell hard but not hard enough
LyricsYou didn’t even notice
I took that risk and I jumped ship
And now I’m waving my arms
Drowning in your ocean
And you go on saying everything I’ve been trying to say
And now I’d be foolish to let you get away
So stay with me awhile,

Cause I’m still melting
Over you ohh well I’m
Still holding on
And baby well I’m still dreaming so don’t wake me yet
Cause I don’t want to forget

How you picked me back up
And you lay my head down
And now I feel you heavy over me
And now I’m in too deep now

Well I’m still melting
Over you ohh well
I’m holding on
And I’m still dreaming so don’t wake me yet cause I
I don’t want to forget

Put your hands to my hands
Put your knees to my knees
Put your eyes to my eyes
Come on baby compliment me

Cause I don’t think that we
Should ever feel the need to worry
Ever get ourselves in a hurry
You know I love you
I know you love me

So time will go
And we may be
Far apart I know
But as far as I can see
This is so good
There’s no need for change
It’s alright with me
It’s as simple as it should be
Simple as it should be

LyricsAnd this love will build
Through flights and streets
In the end I predict
You’ll get the very best of me

So put your lips to my lips
Why not go on and take all of it
And just run as fast as you can
Just cause you can

Cause time will go
And we may be
Far apart I know
But as far as I can see
This is so good
There’s no need for change
It’s alright with me
It’s as simple as it should be
Simple as it should be

I am almost 23
Confused with all the lines in between
They are dying to be read
Softly spoken simply said

Tell me do you believe
In the girl that is me
With her feet to your feet
Well that’s all that I need

Cause time will go
And we may be
Far apart I know
But as far as I can see
This is so good
There’s no need for change
It’s alright with me
It’s as simple as it should be
Simple as it should be

I take a breath and I sigh
And this time I won’t ask why
Cause I’m runnin from the things that I cannot hide
And this time
Reminds me of last time

And I watch you pack your bags
Get in the car
Drive away and if I could
Well I wouldn’t make you stay
Cause it’s better if you go
It’s better if nobody knows
What a mess you make of me

Cause you and your goodbyes
And though I tried I tried I tried so many times
Oh well it’s just something that gets me every time
Oh and this is nothing new
And I’ll be fine

Cause you said you miss me more when I go
LyricsWell is that so
Cause well I’ve been gone for quite some time
But the mood in the room and I’m consumed
With you every time
You take my breath away

Cause you and your goodbyes
And though I tried I tried I tried so many times
Oh well it’s just something that gets me every time
Oh and it’s nothing new and I’ll be fine
I know

Cause you and your goodbyes
And though I tried I tried I tried so many times
Oh well it’s just something that gets me every time
Oh well there’s nothing new and I’ll be fine
Yeah there’s nothing new and I’ll be fine

Beneath the fog is the city I know too well
And it melts like ice and it burns like hell
And the freeways always stopped at 6 o’clock
So I’m leaving without you
Whether you like it or not

Cause you’re breaking me down
Oh you’re breaking me down
You’re breaking me down down down down down
Yeah you’re breaking me down
Yeah you’re breaking me down
Breaking me down down down down down

And the wind blows the leaves off the trees
Oh my, another sign of spring bringing winter to its knees
They say the grass is greener on the other side
See I wanna know all about the darkness behind your eyes

Cause you’re breaking me down
Yeah you’re breaking me down
Breaking me down down down down down
Lyrics
But the change
Is so constant over me
Take me and show me who I am
Well tell me who I need to be
Well tell me who I need to be

Asphalt a little bit darker
And it helps you to remember
When the rain fell in
Sweet November
Be careful who you fall in love with
Cause someone somewhere won’t approve
Oh you know the prettiest girls always seem to keep their eyes on you

Cause you’re breaking me down
Yeah you’re breaking me down
breaking me down down down down down
So just break me, I dare you
Just break me I swear I’m waiting
If I give you the chance
So so come on break me I dare you
I’m waiting
For you to please just come break me down
