Take Me Back 03:41
Said my final goodbyes Turned and walked away Leaving nothing behind But your love locked in a cage Seeking shelter I found another who’d take my hand only to discover that I am just half a man So you’re taking me back again from my heart down to my skin with this second chance Loneliness won’t be my friend Take me back again Diamonds set in your eyes All my fears are washed away Won’t you Save me tonight and bring me back to grace I’ve been holding out for much too long I keep thinkin I’m too far gone So you’re taking me back again from my heart down to my skin with this second chance Loneliness won’t me my friend Take me back again I’ve finally made amends I’m not losing sleep and I begin to find the place where I belong (fit in)

You find trouble inside your dreams While I find her in newspaper and magazines And when trouble, she knocks on you door Just tell her she’s not welcome anymore See the writing on the wall? You don’t need to fear at all It’s not too late to say goodbye to this heartbreak Let our feet take us someplace that we have never known And chances are we’ll stumble while we’re chasing stars But I’m gonna love you no matter where you fall I know you’ve seen all this before When opening up your heart is like waging war Your eyes look like you’re losing sleep And you talk like you’ve lost everything Oh darling don’t you know You don’t have to go alone It’s not too late to say goodbye to this heartbreak Let our feet take us someplace that we have never known And chances are we’ll stumble while we’re chasing stars But I’m gonna love you no matter where you fall And A day may come when trouble thinks she’s won cause she has you on your knees But what she doesn’t know is that I’m standing close and I’ve got the love that you need It’s not too late to say goodbye to this heartbreak Let our feet take us someplace that we have never known And chances are we’ll stumble while we’re chasing stars But I’m gonna love you no matter where you fall

Loved Like You Jameson Elder Verse So you left me standing at the backdoor, all alone And I closed my eyes to let it all sink in I filled my bed with sweet illusions that I dreamt up Trying to trace down this missing thread And these faces, nameless drift inside my head All I’m just sitting here wishing it was you Chorus I wanna steal your heart and make you see me I wanna steal your heart and make you believe that I am not just a jealous fool I just want to be the man for you Verse Maybe I’ve been lost in the bitterness for too long Taking shape of someone altogether different from me and I’m scattered, so lost in this heart of mine, I’ve forgotten where I stand And claim a name that’s not my own And these lips I’m kissin could be made of pearls But they mean nothing unless they’re yours Chorus I wanna steal your heart and make you see me I wanna steal your heart and make you believe that I am not just a jealous fool I just want to be the man for you Bridge No one’s ever loved me like you do No one’s ever loved me like you do No one’s ever loved me like you do No one’s ever loved me like you do I kick and scream, I try to breathe Just to let you know that I’m still holding on Chorus I wanna steal your heart and make you see me I wanna steal your heart and make you believe that I am not just a jealous fool I just want to be the man for you I wanna steal your heart and make you believe that I am not just a jealous fool I just want to be the man for you So Won’t you tell me what I must do Cause I would run in circles after you

I hear the sirens calling Calling out my name and the song they sing gets sweeter as it reaches the refrain And I can feel salvation Slipping from my hands the words I once held dear fall along the road i tread, oh So Carry me back home I can’t make it on my own I need your shelter and love and I need your touch oh i need your touch Your eyes they fell upon me a memory that remained drawing me from sorrow like sunshine through the rain So Carry me back home I can’t make it on my own I need your shelter and love and I need your touch oh i need your touch

Lie To Me 04:10
Lie to Me Jameson Elder & Blake Mundell With these stones we throw, we could build walls Cities that touch the sky We could watch as our mansions grow tall But as they crumble, we wonder why So you lie awake and you catch your breath Searching dreams to ease your mind But under the weight of words unsaid Sleep won't close your eyes tonight Don't you lie to me Don't you lie to me Don't you lie to me And tell me everything is exactly the way You wanted it to be Fleeting words run through my head Silence fills the air instead You think I'm cold, but I'm just scared Afraid my love will leave me re Don't you lie to me Don't you lie to me Don't you lie to me And tell me everything is exactly the way You wanted it to be All the promises that we once made Lie in ruin on the streets we paved But I don't want to make my home A mansion that I built alone Don't you lie to me Don't you lie to me Don't you lie to me And tell me everything is exactly the way You wanted it to be
