VERSE 1
they say say you’ll never make it
but you take a stand when everybody sits
it’s easier just to fit in
going upstream is a bitter swim
but life’s better when you know you have a choice
sing proud when you finally find your voice
freedom has the sweetest melody
and we all just want to live in harmony
PRE-CHORUS
so when they tell you to walk straight
but you wanna go your own way
just remember where you come from
you’re a child of the sun
don’t let nobody hold your head down
you were born to let your truth out
just remember what you’re made of
now it’s time to rise above
CHORUS
make your mark
be a star
a legacy
be proud to be a black sheep
it’s your time
make it shine
live your dreams
be proud to be a black sheep
VERSE 2
nobody wants to wake up
thinking it's too late for me to find love
don't be afraid take a chance
jump in cause life's a dance
there's a reason that we aren't made same
a bigger purpose that our eyes can't see today
raise your voice if you want a better way
revolutionize a brand new day
PRE-CHORUS
so when they tell you to walk straight
but you wanna go your own way
just remember where you come from
you’re a child of the sun
don’t let nobody hold your head down
you were born to let your truth out
just remember what you’re made of
now it’s time to rise above
CHORUS
BRIDGE (X2)
You are a shooting star
aim high and you’ll go far
shine for the world to see
it is your destiny
CHORUS

Cry Me A River

[Verse 1]
Now you say you're lonely
You cried the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried, cried, cried a river over you
[Chorus]
You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember, all that you said
You told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
[Verse 2]
Now you say, you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
Cause I cried a river over you
[Chorus]
You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, remember, all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
Now, now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry, cry, cry me a river, cry me a river
Cause I cried a river over you
[Verse 3]
If my pillow could talk, imagine what it would have said
Could it be a river of tears I cried in bed?
So you can cry me a river
Daddy, go ahead and cry that river
Cause I cried, how I cried a river over you
How I cried a river over you

Verse 1
I love a Disney movie they’re so nice
The princess always wins her man
But I have lived the sequel once or twice
My endings never feel so grand
Verse 2
Prince charming picked me up and held me high
But eventually he let me me down
I was not the only apple of his eye
There’s drama when you wear a crown
Pre-chorus
All my fantasies of love were born from a story book
While my mama softly read
And growing up was sounding fabulous
But now I’m grown and the magic is dead
Chorus
There’s no perfect love affair
Life is not a fairytale
And it’s not a happy ending, no
When you’re all alone
I’m just a fairytale fail
Verse 3
Life is delicious when you find the one
After you’ve kissed a lot of frogs
He grants your wishes and it feels like love
Till he turns out to be a dog
Pre-chorus
All my fantasies of love were born from a storybook
While my mama softly read
And growing up was sounding fabulous
But now I’m grown and the magic is dead
Chorus
There’s no perfect love affair
Life is not a fairytale
And it’s not a happy ending, no
When you’re all alone
I’m just a fairytale fail
Bridge
Maybe in a land far away
I’ll meet my hero
And pigs will fly around our unicorn
As we sail over the rainbow
Then I’ll wake up
Chorus
Cuz there’s no perfect love affair
Life is not a fairytale
And it’s not a happy ending, no
When you’re all alone
I’m just a fairytale fail

The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay
The glory that was Rome is of another day
I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan
I'm going home to my city by the Bay
I left my heart in San Francisco
High on a hill, it calls to me
To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars
The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care
My love waits there in San Francisco
Above the blue and windy sea
When I come home to you, San Francisco
Your golden sun will shine for me
When I come home to you, San Francisco
Your golden sun will shine for me

Don't Know Why
04:03

|

I waited 'til I saw the sun
I don't know why I didn't come
I left you by the house of fun
Don't know why I didn't come
Don't know why I didn't come
When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching tear-drops in my hand
My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind forever
Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstasy
But I'll be a bag of bones
Driving down the road alone
My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind forever
Something has to make you run
I don't know why I didn't come
I feel as empty as a drum
I don't know why I didn't come
Don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

Bad Guy
03:50

White shirt now red, my bloody nose
Sleeping, you're on your tippy toes
Creeping around like no one knows
Think you're so criminal
Bruises on both my knees for you
Don't say thank you or please, I do
What I want when I'm wanting to
My soul? So cynical
So you're a tough guy
Like-it-really-rough guy
Just-can't-get-enough guy
Chest-always-so-puffed guy
I'm that bad type
Make-your-mama-sad type
Make-your-girlfriend-mad type
Might-seduce-your-dad type
I'm the bad guy, duh
I'm the bad guy
I like it when you take control
Even if you know that you don't
Own me, I'll let you play the role
I'll be your animal
My mommy likes to sing along
With me but she won't sing this song
If she reads all the lyrics
She'll pity the men I know
So you're a tough guy
Like-it-really-rough guy
Just-can't-get-enough guy
Chest-always-so-puffed guy
I'm that bad type
Make-your-mama-sad type
Make-your-girlfriend-mad type
Might-seduce-your-dad type
I'm the bad guy, duh
I'm the bad guy, duh
I'm only good at being bad
Bad
I like when you get mad
I guess I'm pretty glad
That you're alone
You said she's scared of me?
I mean
I don't see what she sees
But maybe it's 'cause I'm wearing your cologne
I'm a bad guy
I'm, I'm a bad guy
Bad guy, bad guy
I'm a bad guy

Verse 1
We were young, wild and free
We were everything love should be
Not a clue about the fortune in our hands
Just an open road empty pockets
Two brave souls in a rusty rocket
Headed over the rainbow
Looking for gold
Prechorus
We were unaware
That we had it all
We were kings who didn’t know
That freedom we took for granted was a treasure trove
Chorus
Free free
free in a diamond world
Free free
blessed are the boys and girls
Verse 2
Crashing down on a thousand couches
Late nights out full of weed and munchies
No cash to our name but we had million dollar smiles
We didn’t have iphones but we had endless talks
About life and death and alan watts
The whole universe was ours for a moment in time
Prechorus
We were unaware
That we had it all
We were kings who didn’t know
That freedom we took for granted was a treasure trove
Chorus
Free free
free in a diamond world
Free free
blessed are the boys and girls
Bridge
As I sit here writing this song
I have to wonder are the riches all gone
Or am I unaware that I still have it all
Am I a queen who doesn’t know
That the freedom I take for granted is a treasure trove
Chorus

Where Love Began
05:59

|

Verse 1
Do you ever wish for simpler times
To get out from underneath our fancy lives
We could pack a suitcase and fly away
Just you and me in the clouds on an extended vacay
Verse 2
Not too long ago we were satisfied
With tiny treasures of a modest life
Now we live like kings but emptiness is there
In every corner of our grown up love affair
Prechorus
We’re working 16 hour days just to light our castle up
So why does it feel like we’re living in the dark
I wanna go back to the place where love was all we had
And turn the hourglass back to the start
Chorus
I want to fly
Across the sand
To a time
Where love began
Where love began
Verse 3
We could spend the weekend back where we met
On top of the world without any regrets
I don’t need my jewelry you don’t need your suits
We’ll be naked in love with nothing to lose
Prechorus
Remember when we didn’t have two pennies to our name
But we were happy living from our hearts
I wanna go back to the place where love was all we had
Turn the hourglass back to the start
Chorus
I want to fly
Across the sand
To a time
Where love began
Where love began
Bridge
Biggie smalls was right mo money mo problems I just wanna give it all away
My mama was right mo money mo problems I just wanna give it all away
Jesus Christ was right mo money mo problems I just wanna give it all away
Chorus
I want to fly
Across the sand
To a time
Where love began
To where love began

Crazy

Verse 1
I walked into a tree today
cuz in every cloud I was seeing your face
And I laughed through the pain
I smiled at the rain pouring through my roof
cuz the rainbow made me think of you
Maybe I’m insane
Pre-Chorus
Maybe I’ve lost my mind
Is it wrong to feel so right
What used to make me cry
Now only gets me high
Chorus
I love you making me
Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy
I love you making me Crazy
I know I’m not acting like myself.
And it’s good for my mental health
I love you making me
Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy
Verse 2
I’m on cloud 9 yeah I think I’ll stay
but my friends say I seem far away
They don’t understand
I used to be so serious
Life’s problems weren’t so humorous
I was in command
Pre-Chorus
Maybe I’ve lost my mind
Is it wrong to feel so right
What used to make me cry
Now only gets me high
Chorus
I love you making me
Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy
I love you making me Crazy
I know I’m not acting like myself.
And it’s good for my mental health
I love you making me
Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy
Bridge
Falling so hard and so fast
don’t care if I crash
My heart says that I should relax
there’s no turning back
I’ve lost who I thought I was
But I found myself in love
Chorus
I love you making me
Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy
I love you making me Crazy
I know I’m not acting like myself.
And it’s good for my mental health
I love you making me
Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies, my love
To the dark and the endless skies
And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command, my love
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last 'til the end of time my love
And it would last 'til the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face, your face

LyricsVideosListen
Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see
Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long
Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly
Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on
I never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going oh-so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly
Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on
