Jason Mraz Album

Wake up everyone
How can you sleep at a time like this
Unless the dreamer is the real you

Listen to your voice
The one that tells you to taste past the tip of your tongue
Lip and the neck will appear

I don't want to wake before
The dream is over
I'm gonna make it mine
Yes, I, I'm gonna own it
I'm gonna make it mine
Yes, I'll make it all mine

I keep my life on a heavy rotation
Requesting that it's lifting you up, up, up and away
And over to a table at the gratitude cafe

And I am finally there
And all the angels got me singing
Ah la la la, Ah la la la, Ah la la la la love this

I don't want to break before
The tour is over
I'm gonna make it mine
That's why i'm gonna own it
I'm gonna make it mine
Yes, I'll make it all mine

Yes, I will make it all mine

And timing's everything
And this time, there's plenty
I am balancing
Careful and steady
And reveling in energy that everyone's emitting

Well I don't want to wait no more
No, I want to celebrate the whole world
I'm gonna make it mine
Because I'm following your joy
I'm gonna make it mine
Because I, I am open
I'm gonna make it mine
Because I, I'm gonna show it
Yeah, I'm gonna make it, it mine
Gonna make, gonna make, gonna make, gonna make it, make it mine

Yes I will make it all, make it all mine

Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but your so hot that i melted
I fell right through the cracks, now i'm tryin to get back
before the cool done run out i'll be givin it my bestest
and nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait i'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love
listen to the music of the moment people dance and
sing were just one big family and
its our Godforsaken right to be loved love love love loved


So, i won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait i'm sure
there's no need to complicate our time is short
this is our fate, i'm yours

*scat*

I've been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
and bendin' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
my breath fogged up the glass
and so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm a sayin'is there ain't no better reason
to rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
it's what we aim to do
our name is our virtue

I won't hesitate no more, no more
it cannot wait, i'm yours
(there's no need to complicate
our time is short
it cannot wait (this is our fate), i'm yours 2x

no please don't complicate, our time is short
this is our fate, im yours.
no please don't hesitate no more, no more
it cannot wait, the sky is yours!)

well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la one big family
it's your god forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved
open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la happy family
it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la peaceful melodies
it's you god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved...

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

i re-did it.

i'm taking a moment just imagining that i'm dancing with you
i'm your pole and all you're wearing is your shoes
you got soul, you know what to do to turn me on
until i write a song about you
and you have your own engaging style
and youve got the knack to vivify
and you make my slacks a little tight
you may unfasten them if you like
thats if you crash and spend the night

but you don't fold you don't fade
you've got everything you need especially me
sister you've got it all
you make the call to make my day
in your message say my name
your talk is all the talk
sister you've got it all

curl your upper lip up and let me look around
ride your tongue along your bottom lip and bite down
and bend your back and ask those hips if i can touch
cause they're the perfect jumping up point
getting closer to your butterfly

we float on by
oh kiss me with your eyelashes tonight
or eskimo your nose real close to mine
and lets mood the lights and finally make it right

but you don't fold you don't fade
you've got everything you need especially me
sister you've got it all
you make the call to make my day
in your message say my name
your talk is all the talk
sister you've got it all
you've got it all (repeat 6x)

& all i need to see you pull your knee socks up
let me feel you upside down slide in slide out slide over here
climb into my mouth now

(skat)

butterfly, well you landed on my mind
damn right you landed on my ear & then you crawled inside
and now i see you perfectly behind closed eyes
i want to fly with you, & i don't want to lie to you

cause i, cause i can't recall a better day
so i'm coming to shine on the occasion
you're an open minded lady you've got it all
& i never for-get a face except for maybe my own, i had my days
let's face the fact here, it's you who's got it all

you know that fortune favors the brave
well let me get paid while i make you breakfast
the rest is up to you, you make the call
you make the call to make my day
in your message say my name
your talk is all the talk
sister you've got it all

i can't recall a better day so i'm coming to shine on the occasion
you're a sophisticated lady, oh, you've got it all
you've got it all(repeat 9 x)

butterfly, baby you've got it all

I try to picture a girl
Through a looking glass
See her as a carbon atom
See her eyes and stare back at them
See that girl
As her own new world
Though a home is on the surface, she is still a universe

Glory God, oh God is peeking through the blinds
Are we all here standing naked
Taking guesses at the actual date and time
Oh my, justifying reasons why
Is an absolutely insane resolution to live by

Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously

Try to picture the man
To always have an open hand
See him as a giving tree
See him as matter
Matter fact he's not a beast
No not the devil either
Always a good deed doer
And it's laughter that we're makin after all

The call of the wild is still an ordination why
And the order of the permeates
All our politics are too late
Oh my, the congregation in my mind
Is this assembly singing gratitude
Practicing their livin for you

Just take it easy
And celebrate the malleable reality
Nothing is ever as it seems
This life is but a dream

There's a picture on my kitchen wall
Looks like Jesus and his friends involved
There's a party getting started in the yard
There's a couple getting steamy in the car parked in the drive
Was I too young to see this with my eyes?

By the pool last night, apparently
The chemicals weren't mixed properly
You hit your head and then forgot your name
And then you woke up at the bottom by the drain
And now your altitude and memory's a shame

What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
With a little bit more of innocence
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
It's okay to be easily ignored
I like to believe it was all about love for a child

And when the house was left in shambles
Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass
Was it mom who put my dad out on his ass or the other way around
Well I'm far too old to care about that now

What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
With a little bit more of innocence
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
It's okay to be easily ignored
I'd like to believe it was all about love for a child

It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce
I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age
and they never check to see my grades
What a fool I'd be to start complaining now

What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
With a little bit more of innocence
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
It's okay to be easily ignored
I'd love to believe it's all about love for a child

It was all about love...

(Feat. James Morrison)

Calm down
Deep breaths
And get yourself dressed instead
Of running around
And pulling all your threads saying
Breaking yourself up

If it's a broken part, replace it
But, if it's a broken heart then brace it
If it's a broken heart then face it

And hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
Hold your own
Know your own name
And go your own way

And everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
mmmhmm

Hang on
Help is on the way
Stay strong
I'm doing everything

Hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
Hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way

And everything, everything will be fine
Everything

Are the details in the fabric
Are the things that make you panic
Are your thoughts results of static cling?

Are the things that make you blow
Hell, no reason, go on and scream
If you're shocked it's just the fault
Of faulty manufacturing.

Yeah everything will be fine
Everything in no time at all
Everything

Hold your own
And know your name
And go your own way

Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
Are the things that make you panic
Are your thoughts results of static cling? (Go your own way)

Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
Are the things that make you panic (Go your own way)
Is it Mother Nature's sewing machine?

Are the things that make you blow (Hold your own, know your name)
Hell no reason go on and scream
If youâЂ™re shocked it's just the fault (Go your own way)
Of faulty manufacturing

Everything will be fine
Everything in no time at all
Hearts will hold

Sipping coffee at a quarter to two
i wake up and i'm dallin and my minds running to you
no wonder i'm a one woman man
she keeps me hot in a jar on the nightstand
i should tell her that she couldn't be more
opposite then a foot in a door,
Theres no one else i would rather go out with, thats hell when i see them standing there
me and my mouth we don't mean to be rushing
we talk about deep freely cuz we crushing
i want to shake both sides of the brush ya
theatrically i say we rock it

and when the coyotes they sing at the park
till the city lights starts falling
ride them rodes they winding down till the flame hits the ground
every motion is closer to touching the coyotes sing when they call in the middle of it.

coming back for more,
You know I'm coming for you
you know we should be should be together
while we rock, we won't put a stop
not today not tomorrow.
you better lock your doors
you know why, cuz we want you
cuz when i kill a liar

i wish the world was a live like you.
I wish the world would help me through
another repetuity to approach you
another telepathic rendezvous
i wish you would walk when your jogging
you got a duty to sell in mexico
i got to try to keep you acting shady
i don't like liking you when you walk because
i gotta figure out the snooze alarm
i wanta lay in a place till dawn
i wanta play in the park come on
now let me see ya alarm in the lesh hello

And when the coyotes escape to new york
then the city lights has crumbles to the sea
and the girls turned it into lost and found
the flying metal hit the ground
every motion is closer to touching the coyotes singing
I'm a coyote and i got a taste for your loving

you know i will come for you
you know we should be, we should be together,
Because once we work we want to stop
not today or tomorrow

Because once we work we want to stop
not today or tomorrow

you know i will come for you
you know we should be, we should be together,
Because once we work we want to stop
not today or tomorrow

A squirrel in the tree's watching me
Does he give a damn?
Does he care who I am?
I'm just a man, is that all I am?
All my manners misinterpreted
Words are only human, I'm human

Murderous crow, hey what you know?
What you raving about?
What you hold in your toes?
Is that a twig or are you a dove of peace?
Black dove undercover with another puzzle piece.
Are you a riddle to solve all along?
Or am I over thinking thoughts of human after all,
Only human.
Made of flesh, made of sand
Made of you and me

The planet's talking about a revolution
The natural laws ain't got no constitution
They've got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradise..

'Cause we're only human.
Yes we are, only human
If it's our only excuse
How do we think we'll keep on being
Only human, yes we are
Only human, only human, only human
So far.

Up in the major's tree,
The one he planted back when he was just a boy
I think in 1923
30 meters and a foot
Take a look, take a climb
What you'll find is the product of a seed
The seed is sown, all alone
It grows above with a heart of love
Sharp and shelter of
The animals of land and cold weather-breathing
We're all breathing in

The planet's talking about a revolution
The natural laws ain't got no constitution
They've got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradise..

'Cause we're only human.
Yes we are, only human
If it's our only excuse
How do we think we'll keep on being
Only human, yes we are
Only human, only human, only human
So far, so far

And this place, it will outlive me
Before I get to heaven, I climb that tree
And I will have to give my thanks
For giving me the branch to swing on
If I ever fall in love, I hope to give myself a baby
I will let my children have their way

'Cause we're only human.
Yes we are, only human
If it's our only excuse
How do we think we'll keep on being
Only human, yes we are
Only human, only human, only human
So far.

I've got the dynamo of volition
With po po position
Automatic transmission with lo-ow emissions
I'm a brand new addition to the old edition
with the love unconditional.

I'm a drama abolitionist
Damn no opposition to my proposition
Half of a man, half magician
Half a politician holding the mic
Like ammunition
And my vision is as simple as light

Ain't no reason we should be in a fight
No demolition
Get to vote, get to say what you like
Procreation
Compositions already written by themselves
Saying heck is for the people not believin' in gosh

Good Job
Get 'em up way high
Gimme gimme that high five
Good times
Get 'em way down low
Gimme gimme that low dough
Good God
Bring 'em back again
Gimme gimme that high ten
You're the best definition of good intentions

Will you answer call if
You do not know who is calling
I guess the whole point of it all is
That we never know really

I'm tryin' to keep with the Joneses
LIke waiting for guns and the roses
To finish what we all suppose is
That shit’s so silly x3

Oh, fists like bumping wrist lock
twisting up a rizla
Kid Icarus on the transister
Nintendo been givin' me the blister
I bend over take it in the kisser

Best friend's a-hitting on my sister.
Try to tell him that he's still a wisher
Cuz she already got herself a mister
And besides that's gross to want to dis her
D-d-d-d-didn't I say that shit’s so silly


I do not keep up with statistics
I do not sleep without a mistress
I do not eat unless it's fixed with
some kind of sweet like a licorice
My home is deep inside the mystics
I'm known to keep diggin’ on existence
I'm holdin' in the heat like a fishstick
My phone it beeps because I missed it

I do not answer the call when
I do not know who you are then
Making no sense of it all
Say, can I get a witness

I'm only a boy in a story
Just a hallucinatory
Trippin' on nothing there is
Living in the wilderness

Tiger spot on my back
Living life of a cat
I just wanna relax here
And write another rap tune
Driving off on your blind man's bike
I can say just what you like
Or nothing can stop you

Good Job
Get 'em up way high
Gimme gimme that high five
Good times
Get 'em way down low
Gimme gimme that low dough
Good God
Bring 'em back again
Gimme gimme that high ten
You're the best definition of good intensions

Hello, tell me you know
Yeah, you figured me out
Something gave it away
And it would be such a beautiful moment
To see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now

And baby that's a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
Cause you and I
Why, we go carrying on for hours, on and
We get along much better
Than you and your boyfriend

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

Well how long, can I go on like this,
Wishing to kiss you,
Before I rightly explode?
This double life I lead isn't healthy for me
In fact it makes me nervous
If I get caught I could be risking it all

Baby there's a lot that I miss
In case I'm wrong

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

If I should be so bold
I'd ask you to hold my heart in your hand
Tell you from the start how I've longed to be your man
But I never said I would
I guess I'm gonna miss my chance again

All I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
I think it might kill me

And all I really want from you is to feel me
It's a feeling inside that keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
It might kill me

You've got the best of both worlds
You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
And lift him back up again
You are strong but you're needy,
Humble but you're greedy
Based on your body language,
your shouted cursive I've been reading
You're style is quite selective,
though your mind is rather reckless
Well I guess it just suggests
that this is just what happiness is

Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
It's like picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
Kind of turn themselves into knives
And don't mind my nerve you can call it fiction
'Cause I like being submerged in your contradictions dear
'Cause here we are, here we are

Although you were biased I love your advice
Your comebacks they're quick
And probably have to do with your insecurities
There's no shame in being crazy,
Depending on how you take these
Words that paraphrasing this relationship we're staging

And it's a beautiful mess, yes it is
It's like, we are picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say
Kind of turn themselves into blades
And the kind and courteous is a life I've heard
But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt
Cause here, here we are, Here we are
Here we are [x7]
