20 Years To Life
02:48

I was innocent to smile
I never meant to hide
But if I’m guilty of the love I have inside
Give me 20 years to life with you
Convict me without trial
Don’t make the sentence mild
Cuff me up and hold me for a while
No Parole; denial with you
Well the Jury’s out, you can judge my brief
Let me take the stand so I can plead
Let me testify, let me prove what I mean
You can lock me up and lose the keys
It was an innocent hello (hello)
That lead to no control
The way I feel is criminal I know
Let the record show for you
I rest my case
Don’t object my love
There’s no reasonable doubt
Intent to stay, if I’m enough to sway somehow
The Jury’s out, you can judge my brief
Let me take the stand so I can plead
Let me testify, let me prove what I mean
You can lock me up and lose the keys
I was innocent to smile
I never meant to hide
But if I’m guilty of the love I have inside
Give me 20 years to life with you (20 years to life)
Give me 20 years to life with you (20 years to life)
20 years to life with you

Right here and all at once I was flying
And well on my way
But last year it seems I've wasted my time
And thrown some away
Maybe the wheel of luck might break
Maybe there's no such thing as fate
And if I've already lost this race
Trying to dream while I'm still awake
It's my mistake
Right here I know we've said our goodnights
In the middle of the day
Last year and almost at the same time
But I see how things change
Maybe the wheel of love might break
Maybe the feeling just might fade
But if I've already been replaced
Before I could be the one who could save
It's my mistake
I'm deceived it was just too good to be true to me
Right here and all at once I'll decide n'it'll all fall in place
It's clear it seems the choice is still mine
But a hard one to make
Maybe the wheel of life might break
Maybe the best years passed my way but if they've already been erased
before I could cease the rest of the day
It's my mistake
It’s my mistake
Maybe the wheel of luck might break
Maybe there's no such thing as fate
And if I've already lost this race
Trying to dream while I'm still awake
Maybe the wheel of love might break (wheel of love might break)
Maybe the feeling just might fade (feeling just might fad)
But if I've already been replaced (I’ve already been replaced)
Before I could be the one who could save
It's my mistake
Cause I'm deceived
it was just too good to be true to me I believed
That the best is yet to be
While I’m awake
It’s my mistake

Lead Me On
03:41

When I’m too close to you
I do silly things I normally wouldn’t do
I get caught up this feeling I cannot shake
That’s why I act this way
What I’m supposed to do
Keep my composure, but instead I come unglued
My tongue get twisted with the words I try to say
That’s why I talk this way
But if you find the things I do and say are sweet
If there’s a chance that you might feel something for me
Then let me know that there might ever be a day
So, lead me on
Or walk away
If I’m too old for you
If I were younger, you would notice, wouldn’t you?
And feel the hunger where you couldn’t turn away
And you’d look my way
But you know I find the things you do and say are sweet
There’s a chance that I could fall in love too deep
Let me know if you might ever feel the same
Just lead me on
Or walk away
Just lead me on
Or walk away
Just lead me on o
Or walk away and let me know how it’ll be
Don’t keep me guessing on my toes or on my feet
Down the road if you should ever get my way
Just lead me on
Or walk away
(Da da da da da da da da da)
Just walk away
(Da da da da da da da da da)
Walk away
(Da da da da da da da da da da da)

Now That You're Gone
04:32

I’d love one more talk
I’d love one more laugh
But time slips by so fast
Here we are as the day go past
We’ve given up things we can’t get back
There’s so many things I wished I would have known
Now that you’re gone
I’d love one more tank
That’s all filled with gas
So, you can drive me ‘round for one more pass
Don’t drop me off, don’t you drive too fast
Let’s take one more ride, let’s take one more lap
There’s so many places I wished we could have gone
But now that you’re gone
Every unkept promise you’ve made
Those will never happen again
Now that you’re gone
Everything I wished I could change
Let’s start the story over, but let’s fix those broken things
I’d love one more walk
Or a few steps back
One more hour is all I ask
You wouldn’t have to speak, you could just relax
I know I’ve said some things and I could take them back
There’s so many words I wished I would have told
Now that you’re gone
Now that you’re gone
(Now that you’re gone)
Now that you’re gone
(Now that you’re gone)
Now that you’re gone
(Now that you’re gone)
Every unkept promise you’ve made
Those will never happen again
(No)
Everything I wished I could change
Let’s start the story over, but let’s fix those broken things
I’d love one more block
Of newspaper stacks
And though the ink can turn my fingers black
Well the headline stings, but the worst is past
I’ll take one more read from the front to the back
There’s so many words I wished I’ve never known
There’s so many times I wished that you were home
There’s so much of you I wished I would have known
Now that you’re gone

Living With Your Ghost

There was a ring around my finger and it fit tight
I guess my hand has grown and tan cause that part’s white
And all the years I tried to wear it felt real hard
But if you look, you’ll see the lines, you’ll feel the marks
I can still see all those missing picture frames
The sun has faded all the paint where they would hang
And all the clothes you used to, buy they're missing too
Empty closets, but the room still smells like you
I’m living with your ghost
I’m never quite alone that way
Now my heart is always broke
The feeling never goes away
I check the mail and still the cards come in your name
It’s another year that your address still hasn’t changed
This old house feels pretty empty and it feels cold
And every room brings back those memories of you home
I’m living with your ghost
I’m never quite alone that way
Now my heart is always broke
The feeling never goes away
It’s so quiet in the night and through the days
But I can still hear all the things that you would say
I make the bed and try to sleep all through the night
Yet I’m careful not to wake up on your side
I’m living with your ghost
I’m never quite alone that way
Now my heart is always broke
The feeling never goes away
Away
There was a ring around my finger and it fit tight
I guess my hand has grown and tan cause that part’s white
