Jaron and The Long Road To Love Album

These days when we say goodnight
We're lying facing our own side
Wondering if we're in the right bed.
We've gotten used to all the fighting
I walk out, you start crying
And neither one of us knows what we said.

But all that's gonna change from right now on
I won't give up until we're back in love.

Can we put the petals back on the rose?
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns from a long time of lows.
Sadness and frustration.
Sometimes that's how it goes.
But baby tonight I start to put the petals back on the rose.

I haven't been the man I promised I'd be
To fight for us and not for me
Every choice I made pushed you away
And I don't wanna let you go
Because I didn't do all I know
To make you happy once again and stay, stay, stay

And all that's gonna change from right now on
I won't give up until you're back in love.

Can we put the petals back on the rose?
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns from a long time of lows.
Sadness and frustration.
Sometimes that's how it goes.
But baby tonight I start to put the petals back on the rose.

I realize it takes more than just wanting it
But with a little work we don't have to quit
Baby please, please.
Help me lift us out and put the petals back on the rose.
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns from a long time of lows.
Sadness and frustration.
Sometimes that's how it goes.
But baby tonight I start, yeah I'll win your heart
And I'll do my part to put the petals back on the rose.

On a Monday afternoon
I'm stopped at a light on the boulevard
I'm looking 'round the faces in the other cars
and there's a cute girl looking back at me
the light's about to change
I know this is a little strange
but in the meantime
she will be my girl
in the meantime
I promise her the world
in the meantime
I'm hers and she is mine
I finally find the perfect girl
and I am pressed for time
in the meantime
I turn on the radio
just looking for a song and I drift away
the light is still a ruby red
as the music plays
and I keep hoping she just looks my way
she finally does and smiles at me
and I want so bad to ask her please
in the meantime
will you be my girl
in the meantime
I promise you the world
in the meantime
I'm yours and you are mine
ya I finally find the perfect girl
and I am pressed for time
in the meantime
she pulls away
there goes my girl but she made my day
ya I'll see you in another lifetime
but if you don't mind
you don't mind
in the meantime ya yeah
you will be my girl
in the meantime
I promised you the world
in the meantime
I'm yours and you are mine
be my meantime girl
be my meantime girl oh oooooh
be my meantime girl yeah
be my meantime girl yeah
you know you wanna
be my meantime girl
you know you wanna
be my meantime girl yeah
you know you wanna
be my meantime girl

i was around the first time you fell down

Ive been the one between your boyfriends
to hold you and all of your problems
What do i have to do to make you seeeeeeeeeee

you beat back love but somebody wants you
you had enough but somebody needs you
you push and you shove but somebodys still in love with you

ya you fight it off but somebody finds you
you build a wall but it doesn't hide you
you try to fall but somebody wont let go of you
ya somebody will always be in love with you

Ive been the one you've always been close to
know all the things than im not suppose to
saved you from the wolfs at 2 am

and all the nights you living beside me
to close for friends in the light of the tv
where the lonely stops and the love begins

you beat back love but somebody wants you
you had enough but somebody needs you
you push and you shove bout somebodys still in love with you

ya you fight it off but somebody finds you
you build a wall but it doesn't hide you
you try to fall but somebody wont let go of you
ya somebody will always be in love with you

you beat back love but somebody wants you
you had enough but somebody needs you
you push and you shove bout somebodys still in love with you

ya you fight it off but somebody finds you
you build a wall but it doesn't hide you
you try to fall but somebody wont let go of you
ya somebody will always be in love with you
ya somebody has always been in love with you
i will, i will always beeeeeeeeee in love with you

Somewhere Tonight, I hope she's Getting treated right
I Know she likes a nice red wine, but it's been so long since I,
Had a chance to know her, Had a chance to hold her
Because I never did, When I Had the Chance

I Wish I could Love Her, Without her leaving,
I wish I could pay attention more, Without her walking out the door
I wish I could want her, Like I do now That she's Gone
Wish I could give her all the love, She left here dreaming of someday recieving,
Without Her Leaving

And Still I don't know why, I fall in love at goodbye
Her only Crime with me was, Spending time with me
'Cause She wanted to hold me, She wasn't trying to control me
And only when she'd walked away, Would I begin the Dance?

I Wish I could Love Her, Without her leaving,
I wish I could pay attention more, Without her walking out the door
I wish I could want her, Like I do now That she's Gone
Wish I could give her all the love, She left here dreaming of someday recieving,
Without Her Leaving

She MUst have tried a hundred times, and I saw her cry so many more
Gone When You're here, Here when You're gone I Can't Be Both It's Either or

I Wish I could Love Her, Without her leaving,
That I could've pay attention more, She'd be walking in this door
I wish I could want her, Like I do now that she's Gone
Wish I could give her all the love, She's getting plenty of this evening
That I Couldn't give her
Without Her Leaving

I made a promise,
Yeah I swore to myself,
I'd never give my heart away,
No, No,
To anyone else
Cause I'd burned and I'd been lied to,
Couldn't find love if I tried to
Say I'd live alone forever,
Was the safest way that I knew

There you were,
As if you had been,
Listening inside my head

Everything had fallen apart
You came into the picture,
Like a work of art
I feel your arms around me,
And it sets me free,
It's a good thing

I used to wake up
At the first drop of rain
Now I sleep beside you,
Through a hurricane
Like a window,
That was painted shut
My heart was closed,
And had enough
And though I tried to hide away,
You knocked until I opened up

There you were,
As if you had been,
Waiting for me all my life

Everything had fallen apart
You came into the picture,
Like a work of art
I feel your arms around me,
And it sets me free,
It's a good thing

There you were,
As if you had been,
Listening inside my head
Everything had fallen apart
Then you came into the picture,
Like a work of art
I feel your arms around me,
And it sets me free,
It's a good thing
Yeah everything had fallen apart,
You came into the picture,
Like a work of art
I feel your arms around me,
And it sets me free
It's a good thing
It's a good thing
It's a good thing

I was the fastest, the first one down the mountain
Then all of the other lions, surrounded me like a fountain
But, then one day they were gone like they never came at all.
With a big golden coat and a heart still on fire
But knowing I can't run after what I still desire
See time has passed me by, like the evening sun
They always warned me my time would come.
Not long ago I was the king of the hill
The talk of the town
I was the cat they all looked up to...look at me now!
I walk the streets alone, got no pride of my own
I tried jumping, but I couldn't let go
I never hear goodnight, wake up to kisses like
I always thought I would someday when I got older
But, what good's this crown on my head
Without a woman I love resting on my shoulder?
Just a toothless lion, yeah I'm lying on my belly
One paw over the other, just looking down the valley
At all the young gazelles like I used to do then
I was the only one who couldn't stop playing
Not long ago I was the king of the hill
The talk of the town
I was the cat they all looked up to...look at me now!
I walk the streets alone, got no pride of my own
I tried jumping, but I couldn't let go
I never hear goodnight, wake up to kisses like
I always thought I would someday when I got older
But, what good's this crown on my head
Without a woman I love resting on my shoulder?
What good's this crown on my head
Without a woman I love resting on my shoulder?

It was gonna be you and me,
But now your gone.
I had planned the rest of my life
How am I supposed to move on
I can't sleep in our bed
Or on the couch
You left so many memories
When you walked out
Kill me for loving you
'Cause I can't stop
No matter how hard I try to.
Kill me for loving you
All I ever wanted to do
Was love you.
I've been crying every day and night
For two weeks now
I've been looking out the window at the driveway every hour.
I don't want to start over
With someone new
Yeah I'd gotten so damn good at loving you.
Kill me for loving you
'Cause I can't stop no matter how hard I try to.
Kill me for loving you
All I ever wanted to do
Is love you
Sometimes its just mornings,
Sometimes its all day,
And sometimes I just wish I'd begged you more to stay.
Kill me for loving you
'Cause I can't stop
No matter how hard I try to
Kill me for loving you
Yeah, all I ever wanted to do
was love you.
Yeah, was love you.

[No lyrics]

I haven't been to church since I don't remember when
Things were goin' great 'til they fell apart again
So I listened to the preacher as he told me what to do
He said you can't go hatin' others who have done wrong to you
Sometimes we get angry, but we must not condemn
Let the good Lord do His job and you just pray for them

I pray your brakes go out runnin' down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I'd like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you're flyin' high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are honey, I pray for you

I'm really glad I found my way to church
'Cause I'm already feelin' better and I thank God for the words
Yeah I'm goin' take the high road
And do what the preacher told me to do
You keep messin' up and I'll keep prayin' for you

I pray your tire blows out at 110
I pray you pass out drunk with your best friend and wake up with his and her tattoos

I pray your brakes go out runnin' down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I'd like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you're flyin' high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are, near or far, in your house or in your car,
wherever you are honey, I pray for you.
I pray for you

You were juliet and I was into you
And I asked you out till you couldn't say no and you finally felt it too.
I drove you down the boulevard, thats where you took my heart
And gave me yours instead and every day you find new ways to be beautiful.
You laugh at the garden that we grow in the lawn,
Drink coffee in the kitchen with no make up on.
Sing all the wrong words to my favorite songs.
You're beautiful, and that's beautiful.
You got lines on your face from sleeping on me,
Call me at work cause you lost your key,
Go to buy a dog and you come home with three.
You're beautiful, and thats beautiful to me.
You turn every head when you walk into a room
But your kindess and your sweetned soul lingers like perfume.
Babe you could have gone with romeo but you stayed with me instead.
And every day I find new ways that make you beautiful.
You say honey give me roses but dont buy red,
You need 46 pillows all over the bed.
Guess every punch line before its said.
You're beautiful and thats beautiful.
Whatcha doing with a guy like me?
You're so cool and I'm high tea.
I dont deserve to have a girl as beautiful as you.
Ya you laugh at the garden that we grow in the lawn,
Drink coffee in the kitchen with no make up on.
Sing all the wrong words to my favorite songs,
You're beautiful, and that's beautiful.
You got lines on your face from sleeping on me,
Call me at work cause you lost your key,
You go to buy a dog and you come home with three.
You're beautiful, and thats beautiful to me.
You're so beautiful, and that's beautiful to me.
