ODE
VERSE 1
He said he doesn't express his feelings much (no no)
I wonder if he has any
He won't even let me get through the door (no no)
Maybe because he isn't ready
I never thought what I'm feeling would ever come into fruition (ooo ooo ooo)
Next thing I know (ahh)
I find myself standing in his kitchen kitchen kitchen (ahhhhhhh)
HOOK
This never happens
Ooo what am I doing (what am I doing)
What is it about this guy that is so wooing (that is so wooing)
The more he pushes the more I want to come
How I long for the day that he would come around
And let down his guard with me
VERSE 2
Pick up the phone cause I'm calling you now
Yes that's me on the other line (line)
Somebody told me you were leaving town
But you did not say goodbye to me
If this is true (if this is true)
What am I to do (what am I to do)
When I've fallen for the liking of you (hey)
Baby don't leave
Come back to me darling
And I'll make it worthwhile
HOOK
This never happens
Ooo what am I doing (what am I doing)
What is it about this guy that is so wooing (that is so wooing)
The more he pushes the more I want to come
How I long for the day that he would come around
And let down his guard with me
Together we could live happily

DREAM
The grass is greener on the other side
The way he spoke let me know
So convincing I gave him a try
And this is how the story goes
He said I'll be your back up to a bigger picture
And I'm hoping you could see the picture
Clear enough to see me standing in it with ya
To be the one you love, hold and adore
Growing with you every day I place no one above you babe
I give you my word and my word is bond
just take my hand and follow
take my hand and follow me
he said don't be afraid to step out of the box
you'll never know unless you unlock the key
quick to judge but you never tried
don't hesitate you just might enjoy it
Mary Jane Mary Jane why do you always flow over the track the same way?
Don't you ever get bored with the same things?
Why do you always flow of the track the same way?
Dream away, live a little babe

HAPPENING
VERSE 1
Left side strong side
Hand across my chest to you I vow to give you every part of me
No holding back from what is meant to be destiny
You knew it would be different
When you took notice
I could tell by the look in your eye
Curiosity let me know that you are ready
HOOK
It's happening
Like you predicted
I'm falling for you
It's happening
Like you predicted (yeah)
VERSE 2
Our chemistry
A diamond in the rough
Then our love refined it
Something unique
There was no denying
Nothing you've experience and you just had to have
You knew it would be different
When you took notice
I could tell by the look in your eye
Curiosity let me know that you are ready.
BRIDGE
Let's raise our glasses and make a toast
To the one who stole my heart
Like a thief in the night
You had me at hello you had me at hello
VAMP
Hello
HOOK
It's happening
Like you predicted
I'm falling for you
It's happening
Like you predicted
Isn't this what you wanted

HOPEFUL
VERSE 1
Together you and I picture-perfect
Well at least that's how I saw it
White picket fence, big house, a dog
A few kids, three-car garage
Creating the American dream
I'm looking at this guy like this is the man of my dreams
Building an empire with my favorite guy
And I just can't hide
The fact I love you more than words can express
I feel the building in my chest
Or is that heartburn?
No I'm just playing
Remember how are used to role-play in
The elevator or wherever we went
We made it to stage
The countless hours we spent
On the phone had you Johnson till the Early morn
HOOK
You see I'm happy for you baby
and even if I didn't say it
as often as I should I hope you make it
back into my arms never be alone you say
I'm happy for you baby
and even if I didn't say it
as often as I should I hope you make it
back into my arms never be alarmed boy
VERSE 2
Looking to get back what we had
I wonder if it's best to let go
I guess I'll never know (I guess I'll never know)
I don't want to let my feelings show but I'm still hopeful (I'm still hopeful yeah)
I want I need to feel the same way that you used to make me
I sit and reminisce but I want more than a daydream
Trying not to get caught up
But I know that I want love
HOOK
You see I'm happy for you baby
and even if I didn't say it
as often as I should I hope you make it
back into my arms never be alone you say
I'm happy for you baby
and even if I didn't say it
as often as I should I hope you make it
back into my arms never be alarmed boy
trying not to get caught up
BRIDGE
I know I can't live in the past baby
I'm just gon' have to take this thing daily
Trying not to get caught up
I know that I want love
Need a real love (2x)
Ima hold it down till the time comes a around
Need a real love

RUNAWAY
VERSE 1
Sleepless night heart beating thoughts drifting
Thinking how it could have been
Had we not fallen out over something insignificant (mmm)
The thoughts replaying in my mind
We go through this all the time
And I know I said some hurtful things
But I'm hoping you'll forgive me
Cus I can't imagine life without you
I'll take the good with the bad
And it might be a hard pill to swallow
But don't throw away what we had
What would I do if I didn't have you
You're the reason I love
And if you decided to go your own way
There's no point in holding on
HOOK
So Don't run away run away
Don't run away run away
I want to make it right
But there's something down inside
That keeps me from doing what I want
Don't run away run away
I want to make it right
But there's something down inside
That keeps me from doing what I want
VERSE 2
Another night heart beating, mind drifted
Dreaming how it should've been
If we focused on the love instead fighting and bickering
It's hard to stop wondering can we ever be friends again
Cus I know I said some hurtful things but I'm hoping you still love me
Cus I can't imagine life without you
You take the good with the bad
And it might be a hard pill to swallow
But don't throw away what we had
What would I do if I didn't have you
You're the reason I love
And if you decided to go your own way
There's no point in holding on
HOOK
So Don't run away run away
Don't run away run away
I want to make it right
But there's something down inside
That keeps me from doing what I want
Don't run away run away
I want to make it right
But there's something down inside
That keeps me from doing what I want
Ooooooooh

What Do You Do

WHAT DO YOU DO
Laugh and smile when I want to cry
Sing and shout when everything inside
Yearns for the affection with the one I found a connection with
So compatible so close to perfection
Yet these feelings only see rejection
Do I fight for it or let it go into the sea of forgetfulness
While it takes hold
Of something I found so true so dear
How could something so right be so wrong
Nothing's clear what do I do
What do you do
What do you do
When the feelings you had for someone could never be expressed
What do you do
Do you push it aside hide the emotions deny the love that is so true
What do you do( what do you do oh, what do you do)
It's so hard but I try to fight the feelings inside
What I feel something so real
But you aren't mine maybe we can be together in the next lifetime
I try to fight the feelings inside
What I feel something so real
But you aren't mine maybe we can be together in the next lifetime
What do you do( what do you do oh, what do you do)
What do you do( what do you do oh, what do you do)

NEEDS
VERSE 1
What happens when you're in complete
and looking for something
to fill that void
alive but dying underneath
And your silence is so loud
you can't hear Inner voice
Look for happiness in temporary things
and then you're miserable when its gone
Wanting acceptance
but only found rejection until you came along
HOOK
Thought I knew what I wanted
Until you gave me what I needed
thought I knew what I wanted
Until you gave me what I needed
thought I knew what I wanted
until you gave me what I needed
Thought I knew what I wanted
Until you gave me what I needed
VERSE 2
So much happened it knocked me down
But I know one thing
You were there to help me up
So low thought I was underground
That I went off the deep end
You gave me freedom when I was stuck(ohh ohh)
Look for happiness in temporary things
And then your miserable when it's gone
Wanting acceptance but only found rejection till you came along
HOOK
Thought I knew what I wanted
Until you gave me what I needed
Thought I knew what I wanted
Until you gave me what I needed
Thought I knew what I wanted
Until you gave me what I needed
Thought I knew what I wanted
Utill you gave me what's I needed

I don't know why I be playing follow the leader Lord
I thought that you gave everything that I ever needed

But no I ain't no Saint
Still you push me towards my joy
And talk me through my pain

And you take the burden when things get to stressful
And keep me safe from all these devils
