The Ataris Album

Last night I had a dream that we went to Disneyland,
Went on all the rides, didn't have to wait in line.
I drove you to your house where we stared up at the stars
I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms.We hung out at the rainbow where we drank til' half past two.
Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with you.
Like crashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss
Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist...These are the things that make me free
I feel like I'm stuck in "stand by me"
This night was too good to be true.Today I woke up alone wishing you were here with me,
I wanted us to be something that we'd probably never be.
Today you called me up and said you'd see me at our show,
But now I'm stuck debating if I even wanna go.Whitney, don't you understand that what I say is true?
I just want you to know I have a major crush on you.
I'd drive you to Las Vegas and do the things you wanna do
I'd even have Wayne Newton dedicate a song to you.I only wish that this could be
Just dump your boyfriend and go out with me
I swear I'd treat you like a queen.

Do you remember all the things we did?
And what it's like to be a kid.
Being young and skipping school,
I guess we must have broken every rule!I never thought those times would last forever,
But now that they're gone
I'm pretty sure we grew up to fast.I've had my wishes on a star
I hope that yours came true.
Now all I've got is a memory of you.[Chorus]
Not a worry in.. [x7] ... the world!I remember when you moved away,
You promised me that you'd be back one day,
But times have changed and so have I,
It sucks that friendships end
With a goodbye.I never thought that frienships last forever.
But now that you're gone
I'm pretty sure we end up all the same.
Still I won't say goodbye.
Won't ever say goodbye.
And know that I'll always be your friend.[Repeat Chorus]

Ever since I saw you
On my so-called life,
I've been writing you these letters
Asking you to be my wife.
But its been almost a year
And still I've gotten no reply,
I'm assuming you have met some other guy.
So I sit in my room,
Watch Romeo & Juliet
A thousand times.
I wish I was as cool
As Leonardo is
But I'm not.[Chorus]I went on Jerry Springer
To confess my love to you
You said I didn't have a chance
And there was nothing I could do
You told me I was crazy
And wished that I was dead.
You threw a chair right upside my headToday I highjacked a plane
I wrote your name across the sky,
Miss Clare Danes.
But they were waiting on the ground
To take me straight to jail[Chorus]Im staring at your pictures
From my lonely little cell
I'm writing you this letter
To let you know I doing well
Until we meet again
You know I'll cry a thousand tears
And I'll see you in another twenty years.
I'll see you in another twenty years.
I'll see you in another twenty years.

I saw the stars fall from the sky
And watched the tail lights fade away
As the sun began to witness a new day.I drove five hundred thousand miles
To find a world unlike my own,
And now middle of nowhere seems like my home.Alone, unknown... Yet fearing nothing but ourselves
Could be scarier than any crowded room.
I'm more alone with you than when I'm by myself.Another night stuck on the vine,
Another low lit memory
Where time will slowly have it's way with me.We live our lives to expect the worst
But once it happens what is left?
We will never have to be surprised again.Just you and me not saying much of anything
Sometimes could mean more than a thousand words
Goodbye, farewell to this fucked up world that was my former self.We never seem to have the time until we waste it
All gone, goodbye...
Think and think alike, never seemed to have the time
Until one day it's all gone, you've thrown it all away.I'm glad you were a part of my hotel year.

Won't you come over?
You know that you want to.
How does it feel to know
I still want you?Why do we always seem,
To want what we can't have?
Lessons learned.
But then I listen to my heart,
And it says still run back for more.I'm happy for you.
I'm sure that he really loves you.
But it breaks my heart,
To know I can't hold you.It's just hard to think
I'll never get the chance
To say your mine.
But every time you hear this song
You'll know you've made a mark
On my heart and my mind.

I need a girl who like to go to shows
I need a girl that won't make fun
Of my Clothes.
I'm looking for a special girl who
Wants to go all over the world,
If you're my special girl won't you
Let me know?
Would you let me know?Do you have a boyfriend?
Or possibly a girlfriend?
Cause! I'm lonely all the time
And I wish that it would end.I need a girl that likes to stay out late,
We'd share a cocktail, wouldn't it be great?
If only this were true
Then I would fall in love with you,
I'm looking for a special girl...
Could it be you?I could write a stupid love song,
And sing it all across the world
But it wouldn't mean a thing.
Until I find my special girl.When will I find my special girl? [x9]
