Fever Dreams 04:56
Every time I lay eyes on you Can’t put into words what you put me through Everything about you, babe, is so tight Creeping into my dreams each and every night And I can’t get you outta my mind You got me feeling like… Something strange is over coming over me Like loving you could be my destiny This feeling inside me, babe, I can’t contain And it’s so damn hard for me to explain ‘Cause I can’t get you outta my mind You got me feeling like… (Chorus) Waking up in a cold sweat and my chest's tight Can't catch my breath; it kinda feels like Whenever you come around, my head spins I may be going crazy But, please don't stop it, baby There’s something about the way you take your time You slow it down when we start to climb My body sweats and my heart speeds Everything you’ve got is everything I need And I can’t get you outta my mind You got me feeling like… (Chorus) And it don't make no sense But, I believe it I can't comprehend Why I need it It's taken control And I'm losing my mind (Chorus 2x)
2.
This is gonna come out crazy But, I just need you to give me some space The truth is that you’ve been so amazing But, I gotta get outta this place Every wall is like stall with a lock on the door And I can’t find the air I need to break free ‘cause I’ve got to breathe And you can’t take me there (Chorus) Hey... I love you, but just leave me alone Ooo... Why can’t you just leave me alone? It's not that I can live without you But, I gotta learn to live with myself The fact is that it's not even about you It's about love in and of itself Gotta fight to survive in this world on my own Without you holding my hand Who I need to be is inside of me And I just need you to understand (Chorus) You can't validate me You can't emancipate me You just complicate and I can't take it anymore Sometimes in the dark of the night I lie awake right by your side 'Cause I can't see straight; all I see is your reflection burned into my mind Everything I do is because of you and who I am is what you see But, I believe there's something more that's burning deep inside of me If I find a way, I can find myself and learn to live a life that’s true But, I can’t find shit if I find myself chained up right next to you There’s a time and place for love and a time and place for you and me But, my time is now, and the place you hold ain’t a place I wanna be (Chorus 2x)

Cool Breeze 04:47
(Chorus) My baby's like a cool breeze on a hot summer day And he's even so fly, he keeps the flies away He's like the warm sun on a cold afternoon And when the sun goes down, he's my stars, my moon When the sun goes down In the middle of the night That's when I feel alive 'Cause I got my baby next to me And I'm so satisfied He's the only one I want Only one I need Only one I see Wouldn't want to breathe Unless it's him and me together Breathing each other Living in a fantasy He knows all the right ways to touch me He never puts no one above me He makes me feel like I’m the only one Under the sun (Chorus) Let me tell you about my boyfriend Let me tell you about my man When I first laid eyes on him, I swear he had me in the palm of his hand Let me tell you about his body Let me tell you about his soul When he moves, I move When I groove, he grooves And whenever I rock, he rolls (Chorus 2x) My baby's so sweet His kisses sweeten my tea And I know that he's the only one He made for me I waited so long To have him by my side And he’s worth the wait ‘cause now everything’s all right
4.
When you walked into the room amongst a crowd I barely knew My vision quickly changed; the only thing I wanna see is you Take me by the hand and be one and only man Now, I feel the love; I understand (Chorus) You put that sugar in my soul You turn me on; I lose control Sugar in my soul and you light my fire You put that sugar in my soul So damn sweet; you’re taking hold Sugar in my soul Now, take me home All my life I’ve prayed for a love to come my way And now you’re lying here right beside me, here to stay For every cut and bruise; for all the love I was bound to lose You worth it, baby; you’re the one I finally choose (Chorus) All around this broken world All we need is sweet Everybody tries so hard To find a love like you and me (Chorus)
5.
Love You 04:43
I won’t live forever, but as long as I do I’m gonna love you As long as the sun is in the sky and the stars light your nights I’m gonna love you Whenever you need a helping hand I’m gonna love you Just call my name; I’ll do all that I can Because I love you (Chorus) I’ve never felt this way before I can’t stop from telling To know I’ll love you forevermore It’s overwhelming So, if you find yourself in need of a friend I’m gonna love you No matter the problem, I’ll ride it out till the end Because I love you I will hold you close for the rest of my life Because I love you And when you don’t want me there, I’m still by your side I love you (Chorus) Be kind to yourself and those around you Don’t take for granted the people you’re bound to Keep your love pure, no matter who it’s for And don’t forget to try your best And I love you (Chorus)
6.
We built a love from the bottom Now you’re walking away You said you found somebody Who makes you wanna change How can it be When the best thing to happen to you was me (Chorus) You can find another lover if you wanna go But, you’ll never find a motherfucker like me You can try out every bitch putting on a show But, they’ll never ever put it down like me You can waste your time running down a dime But, they’ll never ever measure up to me You can find another lover if you wanna go But, you’ll never find another me You said we had something special You said we had something real Now you’re calling me crazy I don’t know how to feel How can this be I’m beside myself in this bed for you and me (Chorus) I can’t comprehend Why you’d want this love to end It seems you wasted all my time You’re about to see a brand new side (Chorus 2x)
7.
We Got It 04:04
I’ve had my share of broken love affairs Now, you’re the one who makes me smile I’ve had my chance at bittersweet romance Now, you’re the one that seems worthwhile (Chorus) Some talk about love We got it Some talk about one of a kind We got that, too Some talk about love We got it Some talk about easy breezy That’s me and you We got it… That’s me and you (Chorus) These crazy fools; they don’t know a thing about our love They can’t even comprehend the depths of what we share Too many rules; wasting all our time We won’t pay them any mind or any care (Chorus) (Chorus)
8.
Love Abuse 04:12
Thought I was over you Now, I’m under you The shit you put me through should have a name Call it love abuse Feelings misconstrued Pain in perpetude The shit’s insane How many times have we been down this road before? How many lies have you told? I don’t want to fight this same fight no more Wasting time makes me old A million miles of love, lust, and lies Between Heaven and Hell Who’s the villain and who’s the hero Between you and me, I can’t tell I don't know how to move on from this Be strong from this Carry on from this Walk away Find love for me Rise above for me Free of this need To fade away Thought I was over you Now, I’m under you The shit you put me through should have a name Call it love abuse Feelings misconstrued Pain in perpetude The shit’s insane
9.
Sara 04:08
She’ll get you with those eyes Those hips that hypnotize She’ll fool you with her charms Then hold you in her arms But, she’ll never satisfy And she’ll never compromise She’ll never love you right (Chorus) Sara… Sara… She broke me; she choked me She left me there to die She hurt me; she cursed me She made me live a lie Sara... Don't let her waste your time She’ll turn you upside down And throw your life around She’ll kick you to the dirt Then kiss away the hurt But, she’ll leave you high and dry And never tell you why And never say goodbye (Bridge) You may think you know about her 'Cause she’s lying in your bed But, one day you’ll start to doubt her And you’ll remember what I said (Chorus 2x)
10.
Sand/Stone 04:53
My everything is slipping away Further and further every day When you’re feeling lost; don’t know where to go Take my hand; I’ll pull you close (Chorus) I will Hold you Love you Remind you that you’re not alone When you feel like sand, let me be your stone Our lives and hearts are forever intertwined Beside each of your steps, you’ll find one of mine (Chorus) (Chorus)
