You're Not Alone lyrics - Semisonic
Everybody knows that the world is wrong
Only thing to do is write a song
That's one way to take a wrong and make it alright
So drink up your time, take a pill for the pain
Come out of the dark and in from the rain
I want to see your face in the glow of the firelight
The water's warm
And no one ever told you life was long
And believed it
You've always known
There's someone out there watching as you go
Just a feeling
You're not alone
Gaze in my eyes and tell me I'll be alright
Even if I don't get what I need tonight
Sometimes the complexity gets a little complex
Other times it's easy as baking a pie
Falling off a log and living till you die
What would even be the point if we knew what comes next?
The water's warm
And no one ever told you life was long
And believed it
You've always known
There's someone out there watching as you go
Just a feeling
You're not alone
You're not alone
Dance love pray to the beat
Make a little poem you can sing in the street
Who do you believe, the TV or your beating heart?
You wanna fight the power or tell it the truth
Better take the fight to the voting booth
Sharpen your senses cos you're gonna have to see in the dark
The water's warm
And no one ever told you life was long
And believed it
You've always known
There's someone out there watching as you go
Just a feeling
You're not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone
All It Would Take lyrics - Semisonic
There was a time when I believed
That all it would take is one look, one heart to change me
There was a time when I could see
A straightaway line for someone, somehow to wake me
But innocence gets paid in flames
And dreams of change waste on the vine
When all it would take is
One voice, one light, one hand
Writing the words of
One choice, one fire, one pen
Changing the world within me and around me
Changing the world within me and around me
That's all it would take
There was a time when I could fly
I'd open my mind and nothing was above me
I felt I could climb the mountains high
But then when I reached the summit, was it just me?
The darkest night in disbelief
And hope could fade or start to ignite
And all it would take is
One voice, one light, one hand
Writing the words of one choice, one fire, one pen
Changing the world within me and around me
Changing the world within me
Who would have known that's all it would take
Within me and around me
Changing the world within me
That's all it would take
There was a time when I believed
That all it would take is one look, one heart to change me
Basement Tapes lyrics - Semisonic
So we get
Loaded in the van and drive through the suburbs
And we set
Out on highway thirty-five to discover
What's the plan?
Sliding through the dark in all kinds of weather
Where's the map?
One of us is barely holding it together
I've still got all your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Sing those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the Big Star dream
Live with each other
So we tool
Down to Kansas City to sleep on a sofa
And we're cool
Temporarily cos we're from Minnesota
Later on
Walking in the dark with a sweet babysitter
On the lawn
Talking while inside you made out with her sister
I've still got all your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Sing those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the Big Star dream
Live with each other
Summer diamonds rushing by us
Wake me up when we get there
I'm still cranking your basement tapes
I'm still hearing you drift away
Sing those things that you just don't say
Right to your brother
Hide your head in the evergreen
Ply your heavenly alchemy
Still just living the Big Star dream
Live with each other
Don't Make Up Your Mind lyrics - Semisonic
Save me
When I'm so far away from you I'm lost
I don't want to be free at such a cost
Just come over and save me
Wake me
Every night I've been howling at the moon
Every day I've been sleeping tomb to tomb
Just come over and wake me
It's always the same fight
Spit it out in black and white
If you're already gone doesn't matter who's wrong and who's right
I don't want to lose you
I wish you could see how I need you tonight
So don't make up your mind till you come back and look in my eyes
Lonely
Science fiction with the sound turned off
Writing you while the spaceships blow up
Can't get any more lonely
Crazy
And obsessing on every cruel detail
Endless checking on my empty email
This is driving me crazy
It's always the same fight
Spit it out in black and white
If you're already gone doesn't matter who's wrong and who's right
I don't want to lose you
I wish you could see how I need you tonight
So don't make up your mind till you come back and look in my eyes
I don't want to lose you
I wish you could see how I need you tonight
So don't make up your mind till you come back and look in my eyes
So don't make up your mind till you come back and look in my eyes
Lightning lyrics - Semisonic
I was down in the dark
With my friends on the sidelines
Watching you radiate
I could hardly believe
When you came down to find me
That's when everything changed
But those moments don't last
The brightest come and go in a flash
Am I asking for too much for lightning to strike me
Strike me a second time
Am I pushing my good luck to wish that you'll call me
Call me a second time
You've got glitter and grace
Everything that I don't have
I wish I was like you
Even when you're away
No one else on my radar
You're all I want to do
It was magical then
So why can't we have magic again?
Am I asking for too much for lightning to strike me
Strike me a second time
Am I pushing my good luck to wish that you'll call me
Call me a second time
(Lightning to strike me)
(Strike me a second time)
Am I asking for too much for lightning to strike me
Strike me a second time
Am I pushing my good luck to wish that you'll call me
Call me a second time
Lightning to strike me
Strike me a second time
