If it doesn't feel right by now I doubt it ever will Sometimes you reach a high And then it's only downhill Silently, we keep inside the need The surface, boiling and rising Violently, we fight the tide 'Til it turns on us Let me make it easy on you Say what we don't want to say But we've both been thinking Make it easy on you It's like we both see the shore But we can't stop sinking Hanging on for the sake of it We fell in love for the ache of it Let me make it easy on you This might hurt So, let me go first Let me go first Yeah, let me go first And let me go I will say we just got lost We both know that we hid It was like a wedge just crossed We both know that they did Silently, we keep inside the need The surface, boiling and rising Violently, we fight the tide 'Til it turns on us Let me make it easy on you Say what we don't want to say But we've both been thinking Make it easy on you It's like we both see the shore But we can't stop sinking Hanging on for the sake of it We fell in love for the ache of it Let me make it easy on you This might hurt So, let me go first Let me go first Yeah, let me go first And let me go Hanging on for the sake of it We fell in love for the ache of it Let me make it easy on you This might hurt So, let me go first Let me go first Yeah, let me go first And let me go Let me go

Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down 'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name It all just sounds like oooooh... Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize That I should've bought you flowers And held your hand Should've gave you all my hours When I had the chance Take you to every party 'Cause all you wanted to do was dance Now my baby's dancing But she's dancing with another man My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, ohh... And it haunts me every time I close my eyes It all just sounds like oooooh... Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize That I should've bought you flowers And held your hand Should've gave you all my hours When I had the chance Take you to every party 'Cause all you wanted to do was dance Now my baby's dancing But she's dancing with another man Although it hurts I'll be the first to say that I was wrong Oh, I know I'm probably much too late To try and apologize for my mistakes But I just want you to know I hope he buys you flowers I hope he holds your hand Give you all his hours When he has the chance Take you to every party 'Cause I remember how much you loved to dance Do all the things I should have done When I was your man Do all the things I should have done When I was your man

The cars roll by outside all night The candle's halfway lost it's light And oh, I don't know how much we've had to drink And I wonder why I can't say the things I think So if you want me, make it easy, I'm already halfway out the door Tried to tell you, I don't want to be the one who always has to say "You should stay, don't go, don't go" The clock says 12:04 And we've been here before And oh, I don't know how I feel so tall then shrink And I wonder why you can't say the things you think So if you want me, make it easy, I'm already halfway out the door Tried to tell you, I don't want to be the one who always has to say "You should stay, don't go, don't go" Why do we, why do we chase the things that run? Why do I fall back to the fear I'm not the one for you? So if you want me, make it easy, I'm already halfway out the door Tried to tell you, I don't want to be the one who always has to say "You should stay, don't go, don't go"

Do you love me for me though? The real me not my fly alter-ego I know I'm never not fly But if I ever was would you still ride? If it's early in the morning and my breath stink Would you still roll over kissin' on me like it ain't?

It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now, it's playing now It's playing now Make it easy, make it plain Make it simple, make it rain Lift me up and out again Like you did back when I was ten World was smaller, but you knew it then Play it again Cool

Postcards and letters T-shirts and sweaters Passports and Parkas Mobiles and chargers Two tennis rackets Blue Rizla packets A new sheep-skin jacket I lost it all All through my life there have been Many rare and precious things I have tried to call mine But I just cannot seem To keep hold of anything For more than a short time Possessions of a sentimental kind They were mine, now they're not Gym-kits and trainers Asthma inhalers Silk-cuts and Bennies Ten-packs and twenties C-class narcotics Antibiotics The holes in my pockets I lost it all All that I'd like is to know Just where do those lost things go? When they slip from my hands Then one night in a dream I passed through a sheepskin screen To a green, pleasant land I found them all piled up into the sky And I cried tears of joy

It was not that long ago it first occurred to me That my mother was a person in her own right And now I realize how very lucky I have been And there, but for the grace of God, go I, go I Mother dear, she can see inside Mother dear, and I've nowhere to hide Mother dear, did I spoil your plans? Mother dear, I do the best I can When I was a teenager, I really did believe That my parents had adopted me And the way I carried on they must have thought They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity Well, I'd like to say I'm sorry but my Mother dear, she already knows Mother dear, she'll never let me go Mother dear, kept me warm and safe Mother dear, I'll never lose my faith in mother dear If I ever get arrested by the C.I.A. Because they take me for a foreign spy They won't need no lie-detector, all they'll have to do Is make me look into my mother's eyes And I'll tell them anything they like Mother dear, she can see inside Mother dear, and I've nowhere to hide Mother dear, kept me warm and safe Mother dear, I'll never lose my faith in mother dear Mother dear, mother dear My mother dear Mother dear, did I spoil your plans? Mother dear, I do the best I can

Give me your love And I'll give you the perfect lovesong With a divine Beatles bassline And a big old Beach Boys sound I'll match you pound for pound Like heavy-weights in the final round We'll hold on to each other So we don't fall down Give me a wink And I'll give you what I think you're after With just one kiss I will whisk you away To where angels often tread We'll paint this planet red We'll stumble back to our hotel bed And make love to each other 'Til we're half dead Maybe now you can see Just what you mean to me Give me your love And I'll give you the perfect lovesong Give me your word That you'll be true to me always come what may Forever and a day No matter what other people may say We'll hold on to each other 'Til we're old and grey
