Every time I see you baby I lose track of words And I can't speak Any time you say my name my legs give out And I can hardly breathe 'cause this time it's different This time it's better This time I know it's real This time it's different This time it's better This time I know it's real Everybody tells me I should guard my heart Before I go too far But they don't know you like I know you I already know just who you are This time it's different This time it's better This time I know it's real This time it's different This time it's better This time I know it's real

You've seen it all now Oh, you've seen it all You've seen the rise and fall But you've kept your mouth shut Oh, you've kept your mouth shut You say it's not your call But there's so much you want to say and you know The last one to shout is the first to go Now put your hands up It's time to stand up We've gotta hear ya Come on and speak up It's time to step up So keep your head up We've gotta hear ya Come on and speak up You've come to terms now Oh, you've come to terms You think we'll never learn But you've kept your mouth shut Oh, you've kept your mouth shut It's not your concern But there's so much you want to say and you know The last one to shout is the first to go Now put your hands up It's time to stand up We've gotta hear ya Come on and speak up It's time to step up So keep your head up We've gotta hear ya Come on and speak up Hey, hey, hey, you've got to speak up Hey, hey, hey, you've got to speak up The last one to shout is the first to go Now put your hands up It's time to stand up We've gotta hear ya Come on and speak up It's time to step up So keep your head up We've gotta hear ya Come on and speak up

I don’t know why This is so hard All that I want Is to give all my heart It’s not like I haven’t tried But it’s a shot in the dark I’m all for having fun But I just want to Be somebody who has somebody Has somebody who’s here in the daylight Somebody who has somebody That’s just right, just right, just right Just right for me I’m not one for tears So don’t expect much But ever since you were here I just imagine your touch It’s not like I haven’t tried But it’s a shot in the dark I’m all for having fun But I just want to Be somebody who has somebody Has somebody who’s here in the daylight Somebody who has somebody That’s just right, just right, just right Just right for me

I Can Do This 03:50
lyrics

Does it make you feel good to drag me down With every word that comes out of your mouth Am I jumping the gun to assume the worst That you won't be done until I break down first There is nothing that you can say That doesn’t come out as a bad cliche There is nothing that you can do I am going to find a way I can do this I can do this I can do this So how does it feel to be proven wrong To be put in your place by a stupid little song I'll say it again but just to myself I'll say it again when I think it will help There is nothing that you can say That doesn’t come out as a bad cliche There is nothing that you can do I am going to find a way I can do this I can do this I can do this And there's something coming my way And there's something coming around And there's something coming, something coming, something's coming I can do this I can do this I can do this
