Step into the velvet of the morning Let yourself lay back within your dreams Take on the situation but not the torment Now you know its not as bad as it seems Well I know you'd like to come away But baby you can't come Fortune is your life's love Oh and anytime you think about leaving Think about what you know Well think about it... Think about it before you go And the heart says danger And the heart says whatever It is... that you want from me I am just one... small... part... Of forever... (ever...) Falling... (falling...)star...(star...) Star... Catcher Even when you feel like your life is fading I know that you'll go on forever You're that good Heartbreak of the moment is not endless Fortune is your life's love Well honey... I know you'd like to come away But baby you can't come Fortune is your life's love Whoa and... Anytime you think about leaving Think about what you know Well think about it... Think about it before you go Well think about it... Think about it before you go And the heart says danger (think about it, think about it) And the heart says whatever Ohhh (think about it) Think about it before you go Ohh ohhh (think about it) Think about it before you go

Could it be a stranger night? The basements filled with kids. I don't know. Not beautiful like your songs, But all awkward and alone and don't belong. I saw a vacant seat. I sat down next to you. I thought of all the boys that wanted to. I laughed out loud. Do you hate this band too? I smiled a nervous smile, But I warmed up and acted cool standing by the stove. And your eyes made it strange and I felt out of place. Wondering if you... if you could take her place. You can't be sly. You can't forget her. You don't ask why. You can't forget her. Give up. What hope do you have to save her? Give up. What hope do you have to save her?

Living at home Living under one roof Walls are raging They're all crazy Mind is racing Say you left it far behind And you'll always feel your 17 In a dream Isn't it a sad thing that we all can't win? You got your sad songs or the radio It's for sure that you are all done Just a quiet evening Just a quiet evening When you get home the street is quiet in the morning And the sight of her is all you need to get so down I can't figure how a letter so upset her just climb down the stairs Just disappear I can promise something fleeting Just a quiet evening that will pass And although we ain't got nothing to show By sitting at home It'd mean a lot to me I can promise something fleeting Just a quiet evening that will pass Just a quiet evening Just a quiet evening.

I know you're just confused. And I know I ain't the best. But why put my heart to the test? Can you turn the light on now? I'm gonna grab my coat. I'm not sticking around to watch you gloat... this time. Cause it gets only close enough So you'll know you'll never have her heart. Just sometimes words and long waits inbetween, When she tries hard to be mean. You'll never have her heart. But you'll probably hate her now. You know she's just a name. But with smoke in her hair, I could still smell how sweet she would be to kiss. And we talked about nothing until she had to go where second chances And small talk could have kept me up all night. Cause it gets only close enough So you'll know you'll never have her heart. Just sometimes words and long waits inbetween, When she tries hard to be mean. You'll never have her heart... this time.

Hair cuts and tee-shirts You're made in the shade Airports and "hey your luggage?" Ain't quite the same What ever happened to whats her name She's all books and quotations And no fun and games It feels so good but you don't dare believe it Don't you believe it Don't you believe it When its quiet and lights are low You're the last one you want around You're the last one to know Cuz its over you know when I said Its time to go now don't let things go to your head Its over won't you come over The lights are low at my place too But the stereos gonna change your mood It feels so good but you don't dare believe it Don't you believe it Don't you believe it You're the only one for me (I told you already) You're the only one for me (I told you already)

1, 2, 3, 4. It was too loud to hear what you were thinking. And somehow I knew I would be sleeping alone tonight, But I figured that's alright. Could you still walk home with me? I don't wanna be wondering. You couldn't keep me here. It's you or two months on the road. Just two months waiting by the phone. She grew wings and I grew wheels. And now the dust covers my heels. You couldn't keep me here. It's you or two months on the road. Just two months waiting by the phone. She grew wings and I grew wheels. And now the dust covers my heels. I sent your letter next day air. No-dozed a lot and sat and stared. I couldn't make it fifty pages in that book. I'll pull into town when the saddest sun sets down. And I'll see you at the show. I hope you'll go. You'll be there just waiting for me. Just waiting for me. I'll pull into town when the saddest sun sets down. And I'll see you at the show.

Across the stations it's a fact there ain't no place left to stop Two far away for me to hold cupboards empty t.v.s sold Come along come down and see come down your stairs I'm waiting Almost time for us to go so won't you open up your door I hope your in your car right now turning this shit up so loud I hope your in the mood to tune into my favorite station Across the nation it's a fact you ain't never coming back Car is running out of gas push it up the overpass You stayed inside to long so come along just come on you stayed away Too long so I wrote for you this song I hope your in your car right now turning this shit up so loud I hope your in the mood to tune into my favorite station Sweetie pie come along come along come down your stairs Don't make me wait to long come along 'cause summers here Sweetie pie come along come along come down your stairs Don't make me wait to long come along 'cause summers here
