Summer 03:46
Fireworks up in the sky Fourth of July Catnap in the sun Till the day is done Stayin’ up until three ‘Cause there’s nowhere to be Smokin’ in the shade Drinkin’ lemonade Got a friend by my side Drivin’ all night Nothin’ to do Nothin’ to lose Middle of June Take a bite of the moon Summer is here Ice cream cones in the park After dark Bonfires at the beach In the midnight heat Got a friend by my side Drivin’ all night Nothin’ to do Nothin’ to lose Middle of June Take a bite of the moon Summer is here Trees wavin’ all of their leaves In the summer breeze Playin’ my guitar In the backyard Got a friend by my side Drivin’ all night Nothin’ to do Nothin’ to lose Middle of June Take a bite of the moon Summer is here Drinkin’ cheap wine Soakin’ up sunshine Summer, good friend, Don’t let this end (Naa’s) Fireworks up in the sky Fourth of July Catnap in the sun Till the day is done La la la…..

Is it good is it bad baby I don’t know Got no ace up my sleeve so I’ve got to fold Lights so harsh in this place I can’t see a thing Turn around and you’re gone Someone got the king I’ve always worn my heart on my sleeve But you weren’t brave enough to believe O what a tangled web we weave, yeah S-S-Stay out of here Got a cool- er packed up in my truck Got my suit- case, my pride and twenty bucks I’ve always worn my heart on my sleeve But you weren’t brave enough to believe O what a tangled web we weave, yeah I-I-I’m out of here And there’s nothin’ to say And there’s nothin’ to do You got your way And I’m through with you Yeah.

Backtrack 02:25
Baby gotta backtrack You’ve got a stack of regrets a mile high Baby gotta turn around huh? Didn’t see that dead end comin’ did ya? Too bad baby the bed’s all made now all you gotta do is keep on lyin’. It shouldn’t be hard You’ve mastered the art Baby gotta backtrack make up for what you lack if you can Baby gotta make it work huh? Don’t want to seem like you’ve made a mistake So sad baby the cake’s all made but you can’t eat it too so keep on lyin’ It shouldn’t be hard You’ve mastered the art Baby gotta backtrack You got a stack of regrets a mile high Baby gotta turn around huh? Didn’t see that dead end comin’ did ya? Too bad baby the bed’s all made now all you gotta do is keep on lyin’ It shouldn’t be hard You’ve mastered the art Too bad baby.

Sometimes we just get a feelin’ that it’s time to go Pack our bags and fill our gas tank then we hit the road Drivin’ on back to Colorado Eighteen hours is not that long a drive when I’m with you We chose not to buy a ticket ’cause then we’d miss the view Drivin’ in a mountain’s shadow Drivin’ on back to Colorado Our love is just like the Colo- rado sky, true blue Everything’s more beautiful when I see it through you Passing fields of grazin’ cattle Drivin’ on back to Colorado Drivin’ all night nothin’ but road behind us nothin’ but road before us over the mountain pass we’re here at last, we’re here Eighteen hours is not that long a drive when I’m with you We chose not to buy a ticket ’cause then we’d miss the view Drivin’ in a mountain’s shadow Drivin’ on back to Colorado Passing fields of grazin’ cattle Drivin’ on back to Colorado

Le petit chat Mon chat Il est bien Il est bien Mon chat Le petit chat, Mon chat, marche sur les rues de Paris de Paris de Paris Le petit chat Est marveilleux Il est jeune Il a faim Mon chat Le petit chat s’arrête au vieux café Et attend un morceau de gâteau Comment mon petit chat obtenir ce qu’il veut Il ne demande pas beaucoup, que trés peu J’ai beaucoup d’amour, mais pas d’argent Un chat ne peut pas vivre sur l’amour Le petit chat Mon chat Je l’aime Je l’aime Mon chat Le petit chat, Mon chat, marche sur les rues de Paris de Paris de Paris Le petit chat, Mon chat, marche sur les rues de Paris de Paris de Paris

Forgive Me 04:01
I don’t know why we said all these terrible things But it’s far too late to take them back There’s no chance of that Now we sit silently just waiting for something To alter the tide, to break the ice, To save our lives The rock you throw at me And the boulder I throw back Oh, the lack we have for knowing What will break The other’s back Break your back Break my back Forgive me Oh it doesn’t come easy to some and it sure doesn’t come Easy to me Can’t you see Everything’s so much better when we make up our minds to agree People say never go to sleep when you’re upset If you have to stay awake all night long To try to right the wrong Well it’s late but we haven’t given up yet No matter how, we’re gonna figure it out That’s what love’s about The rock you threw at me And the boulder I threw back Oh, the lack we had for knowing What would break The other’s back Break your back Break my back Forgive me Oh it doesn’t come easy to some and it sure doesn’t come Easy to me Can’t you see Everything’s so much better when we make up our minds to agree It might seem Like it’s the End of the world But you’re still With me and I’m still your girl Forgive me Oh it doesn’t come easy to some and it sure doesn’t come Easy to me Can’t you see Everything’s so much better when we make up our minds to agree

"Where's my girl? he said out loud to no one, sitting in his chair. She’s in a world that glitters when you’re far but when you’re close, it’s not there. Where’s my girl? He took a sip of his drink, dialed the telephone. No answer there, he wants to hear her voice but right now he’s alone. Oh how time moves away and you never see it go. "Tell me, Time," he said, "how long has it been? Are you my friend or foe?" But what of dreams? Those silly phantom things that hide behind your door. Are they what they seem? Or are they tricks your eyes play, shadows on the floor? Oh how time moves away and you never see it go. "Tell me, Time," he said, "how long has it been? Are you my friend or foe?" Oh how time moves away and you never see it go. "Tell me, Time," he said, "how long has it been? Are you my friend or foe?" "Where’s my girl?" he said out loud to no one, sitting in his chair.

Oh I don't know How you feel I just know I gotta get away from here I packed my bags Yesterday Cleaned out my closet There’s nothin’ left to say Oh, Nothin’s changed Nothin’s changed Oh when we started You were a better man Now things are different And I’ve done all I can Oh yes I’m tired Of waitin’ around But I ain’t a fool I won’t let it bring me down Oh, Nothin’s changed Nothin’s changed A million things could’ve been different You never cared and I guess I’m indifferent now A million lives are better than this one The curtain’s closing and it’s time for our final bow Oh, Nothin’s changed Nothin’s changed I closed the door I locked the latch I got nothin’ to say to you I got a plane to catch Oh I don’t know How you feel I just know I gotta get away from here Oh, Nothin’s changed Nothin’s changed Nothin’s changed Nothin’s changed

Give me a kiss And I’ll reciprocate I won’t resist I’ll take you on a date with me Wait and see There’s more than this To life, you know No need to worry No need to take it slow, baby Wait and see We’ll go drivin’ too fast Down old Route 66 We’ll put our foot on the gas and blow by the little towns Knock ’em down I know a place we can go But it’s a quarter past three You say that you don’t care and neither do I baby Come over here by me I used to wonder If I could ever find Someone like you Someone who’d blow my mind, baby Now I see I’m on fire I’m gonna make a scene You are my match baby And I’m your kerosene lady You set me free We’ll go drivin’ too fast Down old Route 66 We’ll put our foot on the gas and blow by the little towns Knock ’em down I know a place we can go But it’s a quarter past three You say that you don’t care and neither do I baby Come over here by me It’s gettin’ late And I’m so sleepy But what a date We made history tonight We saw the light We’ll meet tomorrow I’ll knock on your door We’ll go out driving Like the night before honey We’ll see everything We’ll go drivin’ too fast Down old Route 66 We’ll put our foot on the gas and blow by the little towns Knock ’em down I know a place we can go But it’s a quarter past three You say that you don’t care and neither do I baby ’Cause you’re here with me ’Cause you’re here with me

You and I 03:37
You got your gun I got mine We can take this anywhere you want to They say you’re crazy So am I Oh let’s stick together kid You and I You got guts boy I got grace We’ll take what’s ours from this god-forsaken place A tiny town Just made of dirt It couldn’t hurt What do you say Time waits for no one Wait for us Wait for us When death comes a-knockin’ We’ll be long gone We’ll be long gone You and I Nothin’s easy Nothin’s fair What life has taken from us we’ll steal back, love Keep on driving We’ll go far We’ll pass the state line in this car You and I We’re surrounded On all sides But our love is bonafide My darling Clyde I’d rather die I’d rather die Than leave your side Time waits for no one Not for us Not for us Now death has come a-knockin’ And we’re long gone Yes we’re long gone You and I You got your gun I got mine We can take this anywhere you want to They say you’re crazy So am I Oh let’s stick together kid You and I

Unimaginative passive aggressive take and never give that’s no way to live You don’t hesitate to leave it up to fate Well cancel the date ’cause there’s nothin’ left to say There’s nothin’ left to do If you had your way you’d make me walk through fire for you Liar, liar pants on fire Dire, dire you’re uninspired You’re over-the-hill and think you’ve got it still But you’re just roadkill next to Jack and Jill boy, you don’t look so good You think I won’t but I will ’cause I always knew I would Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean that it’s snowing Just because the world knows you doesn’t mean you’re worth knowing You got your paycheck I got a broken neck Gee, what the heck You’d better hit the deck The truth is hard dear but you’re gonna hear it I’ve got a winning spirit and you will learn to fear it Why don’t you apologize You left me there to die with all your little white lies I got a loaded gun aimed at you son It can’t be undone This ought to be fun So go and pitch a fit I hope you choke on it Your love is non-descript Your hands are ill-equipped to hold onto mine You sacrificed a lamb for the sake of a lion

Standing in the yard Dresses on a wire My future lies beyond the clothesline Rocky Mountain high You almost touch the sky My future lies beyond the treeline Oh, California City of Angels Can you save a place for me I’m too young to give up Too old to turn back Will you save a place for me I said all my goodbyes Hit I-25 My future’s at the end of these broken yellow lines Twelve hundred miles to go But I’m not tired at all I’m dreaming of that L.A. skyline Oh, California City of Angels Can you save a place for me I’m too young to give up Too old to turn back Will you save a place for me A tiny apartment Got a postcard in my hand I take the time and write a few lines Then I hike up through those hills Just to prove it to myself I’m underneath the Hollywood sign Oh, California City of Angels Can you save a place for me I’m too young to give up Too old to turn back Will you save a place for me

The Mistake 01:50
I miss you And your eyelashes full of stars I dream of you still In my shadowed bed Remember when? Do you? You are continents away Your smile is full of dreams Where is my boat? Where is my life-jacket(life-jacket)? The words sneak on to my lips But I suck them back in Before they embarass me, embarass me I love you, don’t you see? I wait for you, but retreat I can’t be the only one I’d rather be lonely than the only one
