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)

Leave Me Alone
04:00
|
|||
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

Sugar in My Soul
04:25
|
|||
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)

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)

Find Another Lover
04:46
|
|||
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)

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)

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

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)

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)
