We’re gonna keep on going, gonna keep on going
All night, all night, alright
And if we keep on going, if we keep on
We might find heaven tonight

Beach Scenes

Don’t wanna go to your party
Don’t wanna walk with your friends
Don’t wanna hear about the shit you were doing just hours before we met
Don’t wanna talk any longer
Don’t wanna take off my shades
Don’t wanna think about anybody else ‘cause they’re hardly worth the wait
And I know that sometimes I can be a little mean
I’m just tired of not having any kind of dream
I just wanted to come here and feel a little free
But everyone wants to get naked and drunk and fuck by beach scenes
Don’t wanna watch you get tied up
Don’t wanna see you with him
Don’t wanna have to be invited again but the chances were pretty slim
After the way I was actin’
All they could do was stare
If you really wanna hurt me baby, you better come prepared
Cause I know that sometimes I can be a little mean
I’m just tired of not having any kind of dream
I just wanted to come here and feel a little free
But everyone wants to get naked and drunk and fuck by beach scenes
I’ve got pictures of beach scenes in my head
And memories I don’t ever want to forget
I still see you running in the sand
I can see you running

I used to think that I had to turn everything up real loud
I kept believin’ every word I said would need a little scream or shout
I took a second to think about the way I was handlin’ you
I couldn’t pay attention so I tried somethin’ new
I need a different place
I need a different face
I used to think that there was this competition between everyone
I kept believin’ that I wasn’t allowed to have any fun
I took a second to think about the way I was handlin’ you
I couldn’t pay attention so I tried somethin’ new
I need a different place
I need a different face
‘Cause this one only gets me so far
And I wanna keep goin’
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I need a different place
I need a different face
‘Cause this one only gets me so far
And I wanna keep goin’ on
I took a second to think about the way I was handlin’
I took a second to think about the way I was handlin’
Ooo on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
To think about the way I was handlin’

A little bit of a summer love
I thought I'd try and make my presence clear
A little communication
I thought it'd be enough to get you back here
(right back here, right next to me)
Oh, I'm-a just-a gonna let the sun shine
And I'm-a just-a gonna drink some more wine
And I'm-a gonna make the best of my time
(with or without you)
‘Cause everybody's going to the kid's place
I heard that you would never show your face there again
And tonight I'm comin' over
Tonight it's all over
Tonight I'm getting over you
And everybody's over
They're all gonna see how I get over you
Don’t need no directions
We can walk to that boys place from here
Gotta make some connections
Gotta set aside all of my fears
(right back here right next to me)
Well, everybody's over at the kid's place
And I ain't seen a sign of your face
And that's fine, so fine
(go on without you)
And tonight I'm comin' over
Tonight it's all over
Tonight I'm getting over you
And everybody's over
They're all gonna see how I get over you
And I don't know who she is but she looks alright
She's a little bit older, a bit refined
Ain't no better way that I can see to spend the time
Oh my
Tonight feels right, I'm getting over you tonight
That's right, I swear I'm gettin' over you tonight

Gotta Get It
03:49

The place was huge
And you could walk a little path down to the bay
And there were cops in attendance
But we got high anyway
I’ve never seen so many explosions
Out every corner of my eye
And you were parked right next to me
All night by my side
I told myself so long ago
That I was done doin' this
But every night comes around and I gotta get it
I went down fast
And didn't have a means of opening up
Don't need to get upset ‘cause I got friend who's doing good enough
Keep on tryna play this game
Oh it's all the same, but where'd this kid come from
I started freakin' out
And we were headin' out
Another night so numb
I told myself so long ago
That I was done doin' this
But every night comes around and I gotta get it
And you say
You're never gonna get me
But you might as well try
You're never gonna get me
But I think that you might
If you ever get to me
Baby, I just might die

I got a hundred ways to make you feel like you want me
Another night and maybe you could be the one I will see
I never thought that it would be this way
And I know I'm not your type
But I don't wanna talk about it
She may be a cougar
Maybe you knew her
I got a hundred ways to love and I feel strongly
About the way you're talking up all of these songs I will sing
You know the words and try to hum along
But you always lose the beat
And I don't wanna talk about it
Something inside tells me this must be wrong
But when you're around it just feels nice
Havin’ a lover and a teacher all in one
And for a reasonable price
I've got a hundred ways to keep you by my side
You never wanna talk about it
She may be a cougar
Maybe you knew her
Oh no

Every Summer
03:54

Every summer
It never ends
The weather changes and you make yourself so present in my head
And there's nothin' I can do about it
I try to talk
Maybe forget
I ain't complainin' but it's kinda painful thinkin' about you
When there's nothin' I can do about it
I met your parents and they didn't like me
Probably cause I acted like a fool
But I love you
And I think you know I mean it
So, how about you?
Every summer
It never fails
Just as predicted you have made yourself so present in my head
And there's nothing I can do about it
I know you're special
I know your friends
They ain't got anything that'd ever try to sway me from feeling the same
As I've always felt about you
I met your parents and they didn't like me
Probably cause I acted like a fool
But I love you
And I think you know I mean it
So, how about you?
We got a game we've been playin' for so long and no one's winnin'
You've had control of my heart since the start but that's a given
I don't want to lose you, oh oh
'Specially since I never really had you
Forget your parents
Who cares if they don't like me
We've never cared about the rules, oooo
But you love me
And we both know it's true
So, what should we do?

What Would You Say?
03:58
|

What would you say
If I told you I loved you
Out of the blue
No warning, just the truth
How would you handle
Me saying your name
Being so close to you
Feeling the same
What would you say
If I told you I loved you
Just because it felt right
The way your body's movin' in the light
The questions you're asking
Answers nobody knows
I wanna see that smile on fire
I wanna see that show
I'm not gonna hide
No, I'm not gonna try to fight
I'm not gonna leave it all inside
Even though that I think you might
Take me for what I am
Take me despite demands
From everybody you know who says you gotta stay away
Don't stay away
Don't stay away
What would you say?

Show Me Your Love

This is startin' to feel just like home
I know how everything sounds
I love the way you whisper to me
When you wake me up
But oh, when it's predictable my girl I start to worry
Solely based on principle it's not like I should hurry
Up, up, up and away
Oh that's the way it is but I know I make mistakes
And I don't think you should be one
Gimme a sign, somethin' to show me that your
Love is right, I don't know the feelin'
Can you show me your love?
Can you show me what's right?
You tell me I'm not like the other white boys
And I fall apart inside
Oh, when it's predictable my girl I start to worry
Solely based on principle it's not like I should hurry
Up, up, up and away
Well that’s the way it is but I know I make mistakes
And I don't think you should be one
Gimme a sign, somethin' to show me that your
Love is right, I don't know the feelin'
Need a sign, somethin' to show me that your
Love is right
Can you show me your love?
Show me your love
Show me your love
Show me what's right
Give me a sign, somethin' to show me that your
Love is right, I don't know the feelin'
Give me a sign, somethin' to show me that your
Love is right, I don't know the feelin'
Don't know the feelin'
Don't know the feelin'
Can you show me what's right?

You'd probably never be into my music
You're not from here and you ain't seen us play
You put that smile on but I know what you're thinkin'
Not really though, that's just something that I like to say
I know it's nothing that you'd be apt to care for
But I've been drinkin' and there's lines on my face
I gave up tryin' just to see if I could make it
'Cause I'm so tired of being six years ahead
What could love do for you?
What would love do for you?
You never tell me just what you're really thinkin'
I get so nervous and I try to change
Wish you knew just how fast my heart beats, girl
Not really though, that's just something that I like to say
I really don't like it either but it's what comes out of me
I wrote this note to this girl once which copped words like these
It freaked her out and they compared handwritin' in the parking lot
And I changed the way I wrote my name
What could love do for you?
Ooo ooo ooo
What would love do for you?
Maybe we
Could just get high
And hang

Another night inside your head
And I'm thinkin' ‘bout what you said
It's gettin’ so much colder
But I don't wanna do it
Rather bundle up with you to get through it
And who knows baby
Tomorrow could be another sunny day
And then we'd have wasted
What we don't have enough of anyway
And ooooo
Baby when you're close to me
I can hear your heart beat
We ain't gotta rely on nothing else but each other between the sheets
‘Cause I ain't turning the heat on tonight
I swear I got a feelin' that I'mma gonna know just when the time is right
You keep sayin' that you're freezin'
One of these days I'm gonna melt your heart
Remember the days when we used to hang
You were so in love but isn't that the way it always starts
Wanna make you feel free again
Wanna make you take off your clothes
Don't wanna hear about what's goin' on outside
I just want you to let go
‘Cause oooooo
Baby when you're close to me
I can hear your heart beat
We ain't gotta rely on nothin' else and girl, I ain't gonna repeat this
‘Cause I ain't turnin' the heat on tonight
I swear I got a feelin' that I'mma gonna know just when the time is right
Baby
I don't care what your friends are doin' cause they don't pay the rent
And since we got a different way of makin' it hot
Well, I say we get to it
Yeah, let's get to it
I love the way that when you finally agree
It's gonna take ten minutes 'fore we start anything
You got like sixteen layers and you're takin' your time
And baby, I ain't rushin' cause I know that you're mine
I said, please
Baby baby
I don't wanna fight about this no more
No more
I think I made it pretty clear
And I mean it
‘Cause I
Ain't turnin the heat on tonight
I swear I got a feelin' that I'mma gonna know just when the time is right
Baby
I don't care what your friends are doin' cause they don't pay the rent
Naw, they're idiots
We got a different way of makin' it hot and I say we get to it
Yeah, let's get to it
I, baby baby
Yeah let's get to it
I, baby baby, oooo
