Jann Arden Album

I feel like you know me
I know well I know I know you do
I've got this thing going on, inside my head
I've got this thing for you

I like your face, I like your body,
I like your feet, I like your nose,
I like your chest beneath the covers
I like your heart, I like your soul
I like your life inside me pounding, like a heart inside a dream
Inside a dreamer that's been dreaming of a perfect symphony.
I like the way you walk beside me, like a paper in the wind
The way you swing your arms so gladly
Where you end and I begin, I like everything
About you, baby I do.

I feel like you know me well
I've tried to let you see me for yourself
I feel like I'm, I'm out of my head
I've got this thing for you

I like your face, I like your body,
I like your feet, I like your nose,
I like your chest beneath the covers
I like your heart, I like your soul
I like your life inside me pounding, like a heart inside a dream
Inside a dreamer that's been dreaming of a perfect symphony.
I like the way you walk beside me, like a paper in the wind
The way you swing your arms so gladly
Where you end and I begin, I like everything
About you, baby I do.

I like your face, I like your body,
I like your feet, I like your nose,
I like your chest beneath the covers
I like your heart, I like your soul
I like your life inside me pounding, like a heart inside a dream
Inside a dreamer that's been dreaming of a perfect symphony.
I like the way you walk beside me, like a paper in the wind
The way you swing your arms so gladly
Where you end and I begin, I like everything
About you, baby I do.

Hide your heart under the bed
And lock your secret drawer
Wash the angels from your head
Won't need them anymore
Love is a demon and
You're the one he's coming for
Oh my Lord

He's bringing sweet salvation
Let temptation take him in
He's every fear and every hope
And every single sin
He is the universe the love
You've been imagining
Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord

And I am ashes
I am Jesus
I am precious
Could I be your girl?
Could I be your girl?

Put a chair against the door
And turn the lights down low
Write a letter to yourself
No one will ever know
Tell them all about the girl
Who just refused to fall
Oh my Lord

He is the very breath
You feel inside your lungs at night
He is the bitter wind
Who's drying up your appetite
He is the darkness
That seeps into your fading light
Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord

And I am ashes
I am Jesus
I am precious
Could I be your girl?
Could I be your girl?

I am worthless sounds
Compared to all your perfect words
Could I be your girl?
Could I be your girl?

Wash the angels from your head
Won't need them anymore
Hide your heart under the bed
And lock your secret drawer
Love is the demon
And you're the one he's coming for
Oh my Lord
Oh my Lord
Could I be your girl?
Could I be your girl?

No I will not lay down
I will not live my life like a ghost in this town
I am not lonely swear to God I'm just alone

I'm back on my feet
I can just close my eyes and forget everything
My house is empty, every memory blown away

Oh the sound of the wind through my bones
makes me laugh
at all the bodies I kissed and never knew
Oh the sound of a lover's sympathy
falling down to the floor
just barely out of reach from me

No I will not go back
every word thats been hiding inside of my head
is running blindly look behind me nothing's left

I can sit in a room
I can hear myself breathing and be quite amused
life is simple like the wrinkles on my skin

Oh the sound of the wind through my heart
makes me glad
for all the ones that never knew my name
Oh the sound of a lover's sympathy
I had to go
could not stay here
they were always out of reach from me

I've never seen this kind of love
The kind that won't wash away
And then leave you in the dark
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you

I've never kissed a sweeter mouth
I've never been swept away
It's what dreams are made up of
Don't you know I could not survive
Without you in my life
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ya ya
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ya ya
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ya ya
Yeah yeah yeah

I've never seen this kind of love
The kind that won't slip away
Yes I'm soaring thru your heart
Don't you know I could not survive
Without you in my life
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ya ya
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ya ya
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ya ya
Yeah yeah yeah

I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you

Lived a good life
Lived a sweet live
Oh, I've had the sun on my face
I had fallen to my knees and been amazed
I have walked beneath the brilliance of a perfect sky

Oh I am saved
Saved

Lived a good life
Lived a sweet life
Oh I have a beautiful friend
I am breathless from the mercy of a smile
I am standing on the brink of the most perfect love

Oh I am Saved
Saved

I am saved
I believe
I am not going to be like I was
I have changed
I am saved

I have bitten off the pieces that I did not want
I have torn them into tiny bits of rain
Oh the sun has dried those memories like I knew it would

Oh I am saved
Saved

I have bitten off the pieces that I did not want (2 x's)
Yes, I am saved

If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
If it be your will
That a voice be true
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing

From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing

If it be your will
If there is a choice
Let the rivers fill
Let the hills rejoice
Let your mercy spill
On all these burning hearts in hell
If it be your will
To make us well

And draw us near
And bind us tight
All your children here
In their rags of light
In our rags of light
All dressed to kill
And end this night
If it be your will

If it be your will

How do you cool your lips, after a summer's kiss?
How do you rid the sweat, after the body bliss?
How do you turn your eyes, from the romantic glare?
How do you block the sound of a voice
You'd know anywhere?

Oh, I really should've known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face that told me
Maybe you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive
Insensitive
Insensitive

How do you numb your skin, after the warmest touch?
How do you slow your blood, after the body rush?
How do you free your soul, after you've found a friend?
How do you teach your heart it's a crime to fall in love again?

Oh, you probably won't remember me
It's probably ancient history
I'm one of the chosen few
Who went ahead and fell for you
I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch
I fell too fast, I feel too much
I thought that you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive

Oh, I really should've known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face that told me
Maybe you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive

take your coat and shoes off
come and sit beside me
we could talk for hours
or we could just do nothing

four billion people surround us
so many souls lose their way
all that we have is each other
and that's all i've ever wanted
yeah, yeah, yeah'

don't you think it's funny
tell me what the point is
we could die tomorrow
might as well enjoy this

four billion people surround us
so many souls lose their way
all that we have is each other
and that's all i've ever wanted
yeah, yeah, yeah'

give me all your disappointments
i'll give you my secrets
we could lay our heads down
or be forever sleepless

four billion people surround us
so many souls lose their way
all that we have is each other
and that's all i've ever wanted
yeah, yeah, yeah'

Will you remember me when I'm gone
Will you remember me at all
I tried to be kind, I tried to be good
Will you remember me

God only knows why we try and fail
Is this heaven on earth or the fires of hell
I tried to be honest, it's hard not to lie
Will you remember me after I die
Will you remember me
Will you remember me

I've got a junkie heart in a cage of bone
I'm a scientific wonder, a sober son
I was born blue-blooded
So I've never made a cent on my own

I don't need to tell you that I'm afraid
'Cause I'll be paying for all the mistakes I've made
I tried to be thoughtful, it's hard not to be blind
Will you remember me after I'm gone
Will you remember me
Will you remember me

Will you remember me
Will you remember me
Will you remember me
Will you remember me
Will you remember me
Will you remember me
Will you remember me
Will you remember me

i've been on my hands and knees
crawling towards eternity
looking for the piece of me that always got away
and i've been so afraid to stand my ground
so i simply shut my mouth
close my eyes, bite my lip
and swallow every tear

i can't do anything
i don't believe in anyone
i just feel sorry for myself all day long
all day long

look inside my body baby
see the twists and turns inside me
every blinding curve that drives you right around the bend
i know you've had it up to there with all my chaos and confusion
i am living a delusion and i do not give a damn

i can't do anything
i don't need anybody else
i just feel sorry for myself
for myself


for myself
for myself

look into my heart and tell me i am a complete disaster
wasn't that what you were after
always thought it was
wasn't i complete desire
filthy ash without the fire
you could not have been much higher without some kind of drug

i can't do anything
i don't believe in anyone
i just feel sorry for myself…for myself
i can't do anything
i don't need anybody else
i just feel sorry for myself
all day long
i can't do anything
i don't believe in anyone
i just feel sorry for myself…for myself
i can't do anything
i don't need anybody else
i just feel sorry for myself

You give your hand to me
And then you say hello
And I can hardly speak,
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell,
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
mmmmm

No you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
Who longs to kiss your lips,
Longs to hold you tight

Oh I am just a friend,
That's all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me

I never knew the art of makin' love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by,
The chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me and then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky girl
Oh you will never know,
The one who loves you so,
Well, you don't know me

You give your hand to me,
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky girl
Oh you will never know,
The one who loves you so,
Cause you don't know me
Ohhhhh, no you don't know me
Oooooh, you don't know me.

There will be no consolation prize
This time the bone is broken clean
No baptism, no reprise
And no sweet taste of victory

All the stars have fallen from the sky
And everything else in between
Satellites have closed their eyes
The moon has gone to sleep

Unloved, unloved
Unloved, unloved

Here I am inside a hotel
Choking on a million words I said
Cigarettes have burned a hole
And dreams are drunk and penniless

Here I am inside my father's arms
All jagged-bone and whiskey-dry
Whisper to me sweetly now
And tell me I will never die

Unloved, unloved
Unloved, unloved

Here I am an empty hallway
Broken window, rainy night
I am nineteen sixty-two
And I am ready for a fight

People crying hallelujah
While the bullet leaves the gun
People falling, falling, falling
And I don't know where they're falling from
Are they

Unloved, unloved
Unloved, unloved

Hoping that the kindness
Will lead us past the blindness
And not another living soul
Will ever have to feel

Unloved, unloved
Unloved, unloved

Unloved, unloved

I've got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I've never wanted anything
No I've, no I've, I've never wanted anything
so bad...so bad

Cardboard masks of all the people
I've been
thrown out with all the rusted, tangled
dented God Damned miseries
You could say I'm hard to hold
But if you knew me you'd know
I've got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I've never wanted anything
No I've, no I've, I've never
wanted anything so bad...
so bad

I've got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself

Heart in hand
Feet on ground
Facing forward
Be yourself
just be yourself
just be yourself

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Feet on ground
Heart in hand

Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah

Never mind what you think you know about me
Never mind what you might have seen on the tv
You can't believe every single word you're gonna read
What I am is too far in for you to see

Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah

Never mind who said that I was a bit far gone
Never mind when they tell you sex is all I what
You can't believe that I'm every word that I write down
What I am is too far in and can't be found

Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah
Ah ah ah...ah ah ah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Never mind what they're gonna say is probably wrong
Never mind ain't about the singer it's the song
You can't believe how a person looks is who they are
What I am is too far in and can't be found
What I am is too far in and can't be found
What I am is too far in and can't be found
What I am is too far in and can't be found
