Vanessa Amorosi Album

One thing leads to another
You've been trapped, been caught
Who's gonna stop?
Who's gonna stop?
One thing leads to another

So there have always been
The men to be right
You can give them any job
They can do three things at one time
But if you give 'em your heart
It's from then they screw up
If you're asking for the truth
Well it's saver just to give up
It seems like forever
That I've been trapped, been caught
I'm calling stop 'cos

(Chorus 1:)
One thing leads to another
Before you know it
You're in too deep
Till you finally discover
You got no more secrets to keep 'cos
Little by little
Step by step
You're gonna see how far you can get
Listen to the words of your mother
One thing leads to another

You're so obvious
But you play it so cool
You must think I'm out of my mind
But I know just what you're up to
'Cos the day I give up
Is the day that you'll drop
And it's better you know
The day I leave you won't be letting go
You'll feel it forever
'Cos you've been trapped, been caught
Who's callin' stop? 'cos

(x1) (Repeat Chorus 1)

It's always been what's done
Little hope for it to change
But with us it's left undone
And it's always the same
We fall for the ones that
Hold us in their games

One thing leads to another
Before you know it
You've been trapped, been caught
Who's gonna stop?
Who's gonna stop?
With the secrets to keep 'cos
Little by little
Step by step
You're gonna see how far you can get
Listen to the words of your mother
One thing leads to another

verse 1:
love wasn't meant to be
easy without a care
and this love will be hard to keep
from a distance without truning cold

pre-chorus
tell me what you think about us
tell me how you're feeling when you're lost
always sitting down
but with you i've always found i was free

chorus:
if it's up to you
i want it up to me
our fighting's always been, so good
and always turning up the heat
if it's up to you
i want it up to me
our fighting's always been, so good
and always turning up the heat

verse 2:
time had never been a loss
the same with the days
that never end
and life could never seem to stop
unless you fail to be there once again,
once again

repeat pre-chorus

repeat chorus

bridge:
you'v got the keys to my front door
we share each others life and more
but when you get yourself mad and go to leave
i don't try to make things easy
i said put your bags on the ground
sit back down on the couch
this is love we will work it out
fighting is what we're all about
turn up and turn up and turn up the heat

repeat chorus (x2)

friday night, i jumped the line
clubbing with my girlfriends
it's our time to shine
throw a few bones, wlk a few dogs
hanging in the corner, drink and laugh a lot
suddenly there's you
and my heart starts beating

chorus:
spin - everybody's doin'it
spin - everybody's full of it
spin - working their show time,
cheap line, all i really want is a good time
working their....
spin - everybody's faking it
spin - everybody's diggin'it
don't give me that shop talk,
just stop and show me what you really got

verse 2:
so you got a cool ride,
you got your own crib
you work real hard,
put your money in the jar
and you're proud of it
you better not lie, cause i ain't no fool
spinning lies to hypnotize ain't what i do and
suddenly there's you
and my heart's still beating

repeat chorus

bridge:
(i'm real) - all i want is honesty,
(i feel) when someone good is close to me
(let me know) did this moment feel like destiny?
or just a freeze frame, mind game,
playing with my heart

(ad libs)

everybody's doin'it
everybody's full of it - spin
everybody's faking it
everybody's diggin'it - spin

intro:
i'm dreaming, i'm dreaming

verse 1:
one week to another
leaving the love of my life
holding the hand of a stranger
why does this feel right
so i fall in love with someone i just met
still so very different from the men i've been with
so hard to get so close to

chorus 1:
but i'll dream, i'll drem about it
breakin'down these four walls
and entering his heart
so i'll dream, i'll dream about it
doing the impossible
and entering his heart, his heart

verse 2:
well i don't doubt this
more than willing to try
sacrifice things forever
but you feel it ain't right
so you've been hurt once
mybe been hurt twice
was it a woman
or were you pcked on thru life
given as much as i can give

but i'll dream, i'll dream about it
breaking down these four walls
and entering his heart

and entering his heart

i'm dreaming the impossible
and i'm dreaming, i'm dreaming
i'm dreaming to reality
i'm dreaming, i'm dreaming
i'm dreaming the impossible
and i'm dreaming, dreaming

verse 3:
i'm giving all of me
and in return you give me half
you say you got your problems
that you can't seem to sort out
seems to be so pointless that i stay

repeat chorus 2

final chorus:
but i'll dream
yes i'll dream about it
breaking down the walls
dream, yeah
entering his heart, his heart

verse 1:
i'm falling back in love
with you my darling
i promised more than i gave and swore
that i'd never fall in love with
someone like you that's
kind of like me
so i'd like to stay far away for now
and see how things go and find out it
someone like you could ever need me

chorus:
oooh, i think i'm back in love again but
i can never stay, cause we
drive each other away and i
think i'm back in love again but
we said our goodbyes
and it's time for us to try to walk alone

verse 2:
i'm falling back in love with you my darling
i'm sorry for all the things i said
all the pain i caused,
with the things i did to
someone like you,
thats kind of like me

repeat chorus (x2)

bridge:
alone on a filed with no one there to guide
if this is love, i'm sure you'll find
the answer to your questions
who knows what it will be
a day at a time to walk and to see

verse 1:
lets talk without making a
sudden reaction
you claimed you've given it all
and i feel that you're being distracted
is it the girl with the long blond hair?
blue eyes skin fair or maybe kate
who's convincing with a smile
even though she ain't your type
or could it be the woman that lives next door
that walks our dog
anyone of these what makes them better than me

chorus:
ain't stoppin'in the mornin'
ain't stoppin'in the evening
ain't stoppin'til i find out
who's lovin'you
i'm runnin'in a hard one
i'll catch you anytime now
until i find out
who's lovin'you

verse 2:
at first it felt like it was
something that would never be ending
and now i'm facing a wall
that's slowly falling down
with our actions
now is it the woman with the great long legs
that gets around in red
or maybe a guy if that's your new scene
and a woman's not what you need
or could it be one of your old friends
that's dropped in once again
any one of these what makes them better than me

repeat chorus

bridge:
now listen here it's time to get it out of our system
now listen here it is time
i won't be the one to change you
i wouldn't even be the oneto
rearrange anything
i'll be leavin'you not lovin'you

repeat chorus (x2)

ain't stoppin'in the mornin'
ain't stoppin'in the evening
ain't stoppin'til i find out
who's lovin'you

Somewhere in the distance
I can see a mirror of myself
Who I hope to be someday
Fidding my reflection
always there but mean so hard to see
When it's so clear,
Clear to me that

When the world arises
Reach for higher ground
Use your fear of flying
Leave you down up in the ground

(CHORUS)

Sometimes you gotta look a litle harder
Sometimes you gotta be, be smarter
Hold on just a litle bit longer
Just be true to yourself
That time you'll be the only one standing
Don't matter if the seat don't fit in
Don't try to be anyone else
Just be true to yourself

Somewhere in the future
The past will show his face
And then it reflects what will you say
Be sure there's an answer
We have learn from my mistakes
Gotta to your best
To change you that

When the world arises
Reach for higher ground
Use your fear of flying
Leave you down up in the ground

(CHORUS)

We all fall, we all cry
Everybody hurt sometimes
We all lose, we all win
We all try again...
Be true to yourself

(CHORUS) x2

To yourseeeellllllffff....
yeahhhhhh...
True to yourself...
Ohohhhhh...
yeahhhhhh...
True to yourself...
True to yourself...

verse 1:
so you're looking for answers,
and they're selling your choices
in the confort of your own tv
and the magazine covers,
they made you discover
beauty is all that you need

pre-chorus:
it's just a mean game
nothing but a mean game
nothing but lies
try to make you be things
tell you how to see things
why do you try

chorus:
if you're down on your money
down on your luck
if you get pushed over you can get
yourself back up
i said
down on respect
and down on belief
if you're sick of what they say
then come and follow me

ooh ooh, follow me
ooh, ooh, follow me

verse 2:
so you're man on a mission
who makes the decisions
to follow someone else's advice
cause deep down inside
you don't know what's
wrong from right
there's only so much
money can buy

repeat pre-chorus

repeat chorus

ooh ooh, follow me
ooh ooh, follow me
why don't you follow me down

repeat pre-chorus

repeat chorus (x2)

ooh ooh, follow me
ooh ooh, follow me

verse 1:
if you're feeling lost,
feeling put down
trapped in a mess,
or just fooled around
if your wish was a hope,
and your hope was desire
when disaster appears through every corner
hold your feet to the ground
and close your eyes
if it's meant to happen to you,
that's the way of life

chorus:
sometimes you win,
sometimes you lose
sometimes you stay,
and the other times you move
sometimes it rains, but the sun
comes out tomorrow
sometimes happiness
sometimes sorrow

verse 2:
taking chances it seems so unlikely
to work in a way that you need it to
loving or leaving old memories
facing the hurt that is trapped in remembering
grab somebody's hand and
lift your head high
'cos if you're meant to be hurt,
that's the way of life

repeat chorus

bridge:
how our hearts will find this light
take the chains off our hands
and free our minds for ever more
following the steps
the steps that are prepeared
for freeing our souls
