1.Pretty Ballerina
pretty ballerina
I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my eyes
I asked her for this dance
And then she obliged me
Was i surprised, yeah
Was i surprised,
No not at all
I called her yesterday,
It should have been tomorrow
I could not keep
The joy that was inside
I begged for her to tell me
If she really loved me
Somewhere a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me
I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my eyes
I asked her for this dance
And then she obliged me
Was i surprised, yeah
Was i surprised, no not at all
And when i wake on a dreary sunday morning
I open up my eyes to find there's rain
And something strange within said,
'go ahead and find her
Just close your eyes, yeah
Just close your eyes and she'll be there'
She'll be there...
2.She May Call You Up Tonight
I've been telling lines
I never knew
All to keep that girl
Away from you
But she may call you up tonight
Then what could i say
That would sound right
Thoughts that raised my mind
Just pushed aside
All the chances there
That we once had
But she may call you up tonight
Then what could i say
That would sound right
And when i'm crying
Yes i know my mind is flying
To a place where there's no trying
But she may call you up tonight
I've been telling lines
I never knew
All to keep that girl
Away from you
But she may call you up tonight
Then what could i say
That would sound right
But she may call you up tonight
Then what could i say
That would sound right
Then what could i say
That would sound right

4.Let Go Of You Girl
I've got to make you see
You're not the girl for me
And i will prove it to you
So that you will see
I will let go of you girl
You girl i have to show
That things are really bad
The things that you have said
The words that make me mad
I will let go of you, girl
You're gonna cry (x4)
You're gonna cry
Yes, you will cry
I've got to make you see
You're not the girl for me
And i will prove it to you
So that you will see
I will let go of you girl
You girl i have to show
That things are really bad
The things that you have said
The words that make me mad
I will let go of you, girl
You're gonna cry (x4)
You're gonna cry
Yes, you will cry
Make haste, it's late.
Go pack your things away,
They changed that cold view.
The sky that would not
Leave your life, it's blue.
5.Evening Gown
6.Walk Away Renee
walk away renee
And when i see the sign that
Points one way
The light we used to pass by
Every day
(chorus):
Just walk away renee,
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my
Block are not the same
You're not to blame
From deep inside the tears that
I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain i
I chose to hide
(chorus)
Now as the rain beats down
Upon my weary eyes
For me it cries
(solo)
(chorus)
Your name and mine inside
A heart upon a wall
Still finds a way to haunt me,
Though they're so small
(chorus)
7.What Do You Know
And now you tell me that we're through
I gave my better time to you
How can you say that i'm to blame?
You're the one that isn't quite the same.
Think on it girl,
Think on it girl
What do you know ?
I've tried to be both just and fair
Have i insisted that you care?
Have i misused the right to choose?
And who can say that you're to lose?
Think on it girl,
Think on it girl
What do you know ?
I feel as though
I'd like to know
What did i do
Did i force you to go ?
I ask you
How can you tell me that we're through
I've seen the world more than you
How can you tell me to my face
You've found someone else to take my place?
Think on it girl
Think on it girl
What do you know ?
I feel as though
I'd like to know
What did i do
Did i force you to go?
I ask you
How can you tell me that we're through
I've seen the world more than you
How can you tell me to my face
You've found someone else to take my place ?
Think on it girl,
Think on it girl,
What do you know ?
8.Shadows Breaking Over My Head
Shadows breaking over my head
Shadows breaking over my head
I wanted to see her
I want her alone, i tell you
I wanted to see her
Though i knew she has left me
Now through trees i don't see
Shadows breaking over my head
Shadows breaking over my head
How well does she know me
How well do i see her
It's something i told her
This way to really see me
Please don't leave me
Eyes that would be dancing through my time
Would help me find a way
To seek her out in my mind
No no not this time it's through
For her and me
Shadows breaking over my head
Shadows breaking over my head
9.I've Got Something On My Mind
I've got something on my mind
It's no lie, i'm telling you why
I've got something on my mind
It's no lie, i'm telling you why
Up to now i've been afraid to say that
You're the cause of all my pain
If you keep this up, my friend,
I think i'll go insane
I've got something on my mind
It's no lie, i'm telling you why
You've been treating me so bad
Since the day that we met
But now i am oh so glad
And my girl you can bet
I will say what's on my mind
And this time there'll be no lie
I've got something on my mind
It's no lie, i'm telling you why
You've been treating me so bad
Since the day that we met
But now i am oh so glad
And my girl you can bet
I will say what's on my mind
And this time there'll be no lie
I've got something on my mind
It's no lie, i'm telling you why
10.Lazy Day
My life is one big lazy day
My mother taught me not to pray
Find someone else to make you see
My life is really not for free
Find someone else to make you see
My life is really not for free
My life is one big lazy day
My frieds have funny ways to make me stay
Well i just ----- something they turn away
You think it's worth it and i say it's ok
Look around and you have found that
Things are really gray, it's not your day
My life is one big lazy day
My mother taught me not to pray
Find someone else to make you see
My life is really not for free
Find someone else to make you see
My life is really not for free
My life is one big lazy day
My frieds have funny ways to make me stay
Well i just ----- something they turn away
You think it's worth it and i say it's ok
Look around and you have found that
Things are really gray, it's not your day
