Lightning

I met you at my brothers
your lines were like lightning
so bright and uncontrollable
ya I could hardly fight it
you took me to your parents
we were joking in the street
your eyes were like headlights
crashing into me
I never let you go
cause it's a long long way
to your mountain top
We listened to Aretha
I say a little prayer now
you know I always kept you
like a dirty way out
I'll disappear slowly
so I won't hear you say,
"You know I always loved you,
but just not in that way."
I never let you go
cause it's a long long way
to your mountain top
And it hurts like hell
to belong to someone else
I never let you go
cause it's a long long way
to your mountain top

Star Shaker

They'll make you doubt your every dream
They'll turn this into catastrophe
They'll take your heart they'll take your soul
They'll take a little more then they did before
And when your back's against the wall
just remember who you are
you're the king of everything your mind could ever dream
and when they love you like a star
you know the dream ain't very far
just remember who you are
You're a Star Shaker
a moonbeam operator
you can't fake it
they either love or hate it
Star Shaker, don't save your love for later
you know you got to give it all
You're not the child they thought you'd be
only stronger now from the gravity
You were never meant to shake their bones
but the sky above til' the stars explode
And when your back's against the wall
just remember who you are
you're the king of everything your mind could ever dream
and when they love you like a star
you know the dream ain't very far
just remember who you are
You're a Star Shaker
a moonbeam operator
you can't fake it
they either love or hate it
Star Shaker, don't save your love for later
you know you got to give it all
Don't hide your love
Don't hide your love
Don't hide your love
You gotta give it all away
You're a Star Shaker
a moonbeam operator
you can't fake it
they either love or hate it
Star Shaker, don't save your love for later
you know you got to give it all

You Can Touch Me
03:54

I was sitting on your bed,
"Have you heard this song?", you said
You laid down on my hand
I said, "Don't worry about it man."
And I know what your best friends don't
"You can touch me."
I thought I'd let you know
before you belong to someone
Cause I know how it kills you
to belong to no one
"You can touch me."
You were crying in the hall
til' I walked on through the wall
"It will all be alright, feel the scar on my side."
"You can touch me so you know."
Jesus loves me
ya i know...
ya i know...
ya i know...

Break You

Hey honey won't you calm it down tonight
I got my rings and my arms around your light
I don't wanna break you
I don't wanna win this fight
I just wanna be alone tonight
It's hard to say
but I'm not what you need
I'll only break you
like you break me
Maybe I was a fool, hell, I don't care
It's just another town without you here
Tell me how to take you
Tell me how to make this right
Maybe in a year it'll be alright
It's hard to say
but I'm not what you need
I'll only break you
like you break me
Well honey I gotta break free
Cry baby cry,
I'm not the one to hold you
Try baby try,
to calm the storms above you
Fly baby fly,
into the arms that love you better
Hey honey won't you calm it down tonight
I got my rings and my arms around your light
I don't wanna break you
I don't wanna win this fight
I just wanna be alone tonight

Love Like California

Come on now we're only getting older
You loved me for my heart but my heart's grown colder
But here we are the dancing dust
I asked you for the time but the time's run up
And I've been waiting a long time
Looking for the city, the sunlight
Love like California
Blue like a fog in Lookout, Georgia
I was waiting on the ghost but the ghost didn't show up
Now I'm red like fire, red like wine
dancing like a child 'cross the desert sky
And I've been waiting a long time
Looking for the city, the sunlight
Love like California
These city lights can hold you
These city lights can take you in
These city lights can tell you, everything.
And did you find what you wanted?
And did you give it all you got?
And was it everything you needed?
And would you take it all back?
And I've been waiting a long time
Looking for the city, the sunlight
Love like California
I got a love like California

Trouble
The clock strikes twelve baby
I came here with another
but his eyes are playing tricks baby
Now he wants to talk philosophy
tell me 'bout that new college degree
I can't believe all of the things you've seen
I should be going but you're
trouble baby
I can hardly separate my word are failing
I can feel your fingers running down on
my fears and
my faith and
my fantasies
Trouble
What does it take to free each other?
Before we're parallel in sheets babe
You know my heart ain't in the covers
Until I find a way to work it out
I guess I'll have to sit and suffer now
Bite my lips to bring the color out
I should be going but you're
trouble baby
I can hardly separate my word are failing
I can feel your fingers running down on
my fears and
my faith and
my fantasies
Your sex is power.
Your sex is power.
Your sex is power.
Your sex is power.
I should be going but you're
trouble baby
I can hardly separate my word are failing
I can feel your fingers running down on
my fears and
my faith and
my fantasies

You came upon me like a midnight fever
I really thought you had the love to free me
even now it's like I lost you in a way
And I can't dance with no one
so baby let me show you how to hold me
I've only seen boys like you in movies and magazines
You're all I need
I thought another hit could take me higher
another chemical could match your fire
now I'm confident that love is all I need
you're all I need
And I can't dance with no one
so baby let me show you how to hold me
I've only seen boys like you in movies and magazines
You're all I need
And the hardest part is not letting go
when there's nothing left between our hearts
And the hardest part is not giving up
when there's nothing left between our hearts
And I can't dance with no one
so baby let me show you how to hold me
I've only seen boys like you in movies and magazines
You're all I need

Yeoung Seon: "...you know, and you have to do what you have to do, but I want you to know my heart. I'm gonna miss you. And I don't want you to go, but I know you have to experience and do whatever, but still... Your mother is gonna miss you."
I could take the last plane home,
ticket to the morning sun
Leave you with no walls to climb
Leave these starry eyes behind
I close my eyes to see you
dancing in the light below
And I've come so far to be here
just to find that everybody's gone
Happiness it takes it's time
a couple hundred thousand miles
Leave you steady with these lines,
"Was it you who told me I could shine?"
I close my eyes to see you
dancing in the light below
And I've come so far to be here
just to find that everybody's gone
Ooo.. I
Ooo.. tried
I'll try to make up for lost time...
