In the back of this Nissan
You make me so hot
I love you on fire
That's just what this song's about
Hair pressed against the skin
My fingers on your blouse
I'll keep you in my mouth
And hope to never take you out
This means more than love in a flashing room
And those clothes, your fashion it dies too soon
So lose those, the floor is where they should be
I tear down your walls and you set me free
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
In the back of this Vegas lot
You make my heart stop
I love your clothes off
But that's not what this song's about
Legs over the stick shift
You let the cloth rip
Your fingers on my kiss
Got me wrapped around your wrists
This means more than love in a five star suite
And much more than kissing on easy street
And rooftops in cities that never sleep
They all search for something like you and me
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
You don't even believe me
Would it hurt to try
I'd say you could complete me
But there's no you in I
Will I be here next year hold that next tear in your eye
You know that I come every time you cry
In the back of this LA cab
You drive me so mad
Hold you til my hands bled
That's the red I wish I had
So much between us now
Oceans but I'd swim out
I'll keep you in my mouth
And hope to never take you out
This means more than love on a silver screen
And much more than love in a magazine
And sweat beads you give me all I need
And this room it flashes for you and me
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
Nothing can take me from her
I'm taking her on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down

She is a pyramid
But with him she's just a grain of sand
This love's too strong like mice and men
Squeezing out the life that should be let in
She was a hurricane-cane-cane-cane
But now she's just a gust of wind
She used to set the sails of a thousand ships
Was a force to be reckoned with
She could be a statue of liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl...Ohh
Yeah, she used to rule the world...Ohh
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a pearl
She was unstoppable
Moved fast just like an avalanche
But now she's stuck deep in cement
Wishing that they'd never ever met
She could be a statue of liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl...Ohh
Yeah, she used to rule the world...Ohh
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a -
Do you know that there's a way out,
there's a way out
there's a way out
there's a way out
You don't have to be held down,
be held down
be held down
be held down
'Cause I used to be a shell
Yeah, I let him rule my world
my world, ohh, yeah
But I woke up and grew strong
And I can still go on
And no one can take my pearl
You don't have to be shell, No
You're the one that rules your world, ohh
You are strong and you'll learn
that you can still go on
And you'll always be a pearl
She is unstoppable

You make me feel like I'm losing my virginity
The first time every time when you touch me
I make you bloom like a flower that you never seen
Under the sun we are one buzzing energy
Let's pollinate to create a family tree
This evolution with you comes naturally
Some call it science we call it chemistry
This is the story of the birds and the bees
Even the seasons change
Our love still stays the same
You give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat, hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
I've flown a million miles just to find a magic seed
A white flower with the power to bring life to me
You're so exotic my whole body fluttering
Constantly craving for a taste of your sticky sweet
I was on the brink of a heart attack
You gave me life and keep me coming back
I see the sun rise in your eyes, your eyes
We've got a future full of blue skies, blue skies
Even the seasons change
Our love still stays the same
You give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat, hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
You love me, you love me
Never love me not, not, oh no
When we're in perfect harmony
You make me sound like, like a symphony
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat, hummingbird heartbeat
You give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat, hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh oh
Hummingbird heartbeat

Summer after high school when we first met
We make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my 18th Birthday
We got matching tattoos
Used to steal your parents' liquor
And climb to the roof
Talk about our future
like we had a clue
Never planned that one day
I'd be losing you
In another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Never one without the other We made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you
I put those records on (whoa)
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the Blues
It's time to face the music
I'm no longer your muse
But in another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
the one that got away
The one(X3)
The one that got away
Bridge:
All this money can't buy me a time machine (No)
Can't replace you with a million rings (No)
I shoulda told you what you meant to me (Whoa)
Cause now i pay the price
In another life
I would be your girl
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
The one(X3)
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away

Yeah eh yeah yeah
I can feel a phoenix inside of me
As I march alone to a different beat
Slowly swallowing down my fear, yeah yeah
I am ready for the road less traveled
Suiting up for my crowning battle
This test is my own cross to bear
But i will get there
It's never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called
Standing on the front line when the bombs start to fall
I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames
Calling out my name
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the end of it all
Who am i living for?
I can feel this light that's inside of me
Growing fast into a bolt of lightning
I know one spark will shock the world, yeah yeah
So i pray for a favor like Esther
I need your strength to handle the pressure
I know there will be sacrifice
But that's the price
It's never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called
Standing on the front line when the bombs start to fall
I can see the heavens but i still hear the flames
Calling out my name
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the end of it all
Who am i living for?
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the end of it all
Who am i living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am i living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am i living for?
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Don't let the greatness get you down
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Don't let the greatness get you down
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the end of it all
Who am i living for?
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the end of it all
Who am i living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am i living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am i living for?

She left her clothes in Kansas
Ever since we steped on campus
Ever since she left her classes
So she could fill some glasses
She want a photograph
8 by 11 dreams
She's got that self-worth
She learned at 17
And I could work with that
Been working all week
She's been flirtin all night
Wishing she could own me
But I come with a lot of baggage
And a lot of ego, and a lot of fashion
Just give me that college magic
And I could probably make tonight pop
And she said:
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
She left her cares on the bedpost
Next to the lipstick and the mentos
Savian and a candy necklace
She goes to places her friends won't
She's in the backyeard
Of her sorority
I'm thinking backseat
She's looking for the key
And I could work with that
Been working all month
She's been flirting all night
Lady I'm the wrong one
She said:
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
(Tonight tonight)
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
(Tonight tonight)
She was like "who was that singing?"
I was off in the back room drinking
Savin something thinkin nothing
When I heard my phone start ringin
But you know I can't pick it up
'Cause I'm not in love
And I just with nobody(s?) trust
She left her friends in high school
She's thinking "why do I like you?
If I just make-do with a nice dude
I could make it to the white picket fence crew"
But it just won't work like that
When I wake it's on the road
You could take me in your room
But you can't take me home
She said:
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
(Tonight tonight)
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
(Tonight tonight)
Oh
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
(Stay with me)
Let me down easy
Or stay with me tonight
(Tonight tonight)

I wish you'd give me what I'm looking for
I hit the light switch, then hit the front door
I say farewell to the western front
I'm having second thoughts,
I may have jumped the gun
We walked we stopped in your stereo
I really wanna be the color in your video
Its my its my shotgun wedding with
The big city and I'm working on my etiquette
Cuz everybody wants it
And everybody needs it
Everybody wants it
And everybody needs...
Oh you don't have to say goodbye
Nothing's gonna pass you by
Looking at the same night sky
We'll be there waiting for you getting high
Everything will be all right
Looking at the same night sky
I can't give in I've worked to hard for this
I let the stress build, I sit and ball my fists
This town gets cold I pull the wool down
I look up at the stars, they hit the wet ground
We walked we stopped in your stereo
I really wanna be the color in your video
Its my its my shotgun wedding with
The big city and I hope I don't get over it
Cuz everybody wants it
And everybody needs it
Everybody wants it
And everybody needs...
Oh you don't have to say goodbye
Nothing's gonna pass you by
Looking at the same night sky
We'll be there waiting for you getting high
Everything will be all right
Looking at the same night sky
So
They got me crying on my sleeve
That's where I keep my heart so it don't dry up
They say I'm living out my dreams
well thats my luck
Was it my dream when my father went falling down
I only felt one thing that's how I know now
I miss the days and the folks that I shared them with
This song right here goes out to all that cared a bit
So many thought that I would never reach the plane I'm at
But ya'll knew better then that
And when I'm lonely
You'll always be my only
And I'll be yours in time
Oh you don't have to say goodbye
Nothing's gonna pass you by
Looking at the same night sky
We'll be there waiting for you getting high
Everything will be all right
Looking at the same night sky
Whoa you don't need to say goodbye.

Saturday Nights
How many more Saturday nights do you have left to run free?
You got your women waiting outside, when will you go make her complete?
You see a burden she sees a life, you miss the boys from your hometown
You wanna stay there it feels so right, she says that yall gotta go now
Now I can be an asshole, I can be your man
I hold the rest of the night in my hand
I could dial it right, I could dial it wrong
I can give you what'ch like, I can take her home
I don't really know, I've been drinking
I don't really show what im thinking
I don't really grow, I just age
Turn another corner of a page, I turn the other cheek and just blame
I live another week its insane, I laugh and love and give no restrain
I drink the brew of each new exchange
Handed the plates but given no team
I live the life I like with no shame
I stay confined inside own brain, so I sit back and play this game
How many more Saturday nights do you have left to run free?
You got your women waiting outside, when will you go make her comfy?
You see a burden, she sees a life, you miss the boys from your hometown.(yes you do)
You wanna stay there it feels so right, she says ch'yall gotta go now
Now I can be an asshole
I could act grown,I hold the rest of the night in my phone
I could dial it right, I could dial it wrong
I can give you what'ch like, I can take her home
I don't really know, I've been drinkin
I don't really show what im thinking
I don't really grow, I just age
Turn another page, and say
How many more Saturday nights do you have left to run free?
You got your women waiting outside, when will you go make her complete?
You see a burden, she sees a life, you miss the boys from your hometown.
You wanna stay there it feels so right, she says ch'yall gotta go now
Love can make you Change your ways, but you miss your younger days
Now there so much more to save, you don't wanna lose her
Do ya?
Do ya
Throw all of your cares away, like it was Saturday
Shes been there to keep you safe
You know you better
Choose her
Choose her
Choose her
yaaAAaaaAAa
How many more Saturday nights do we have left to run free?
You got your women waiting outside, when will you go make her complete?
You see a burden, she sees a life, you miss the boys from your hometown.
You wanna stay there it feels so right, she says ch'yall gotta go now
How many more Saturday nights?

I looked you right in the eyes, right in the eyes
But i couldnt see
It burned when i looked, it burned in my heart, my words wouldnt work.
I listened to you loud and clear so loud and clear but i couldnt hear.
Her mouth moving fast
