Joe McElderry Album

Now, I can't behave
I feel it in my feet on the streets
But don't you know?
There's something I can feel when I breathe

I told you once
You're breaking into separate parts
But don't you know?
It's something that I can't live without

And if somebody's going to make it
Then this somebody ought to be you
And I keep telling my reflection
Ambitions are already starting to fade

I can't tolerate
The feelings that I feel when I feel
But don't you know?
Some feelings never seem to let go

Like a silverblade
I cut my way out of control
But don't you know?
Some blades will cut you right to the bone

And if somebody's going to make it
Then this somebody ought to be you
And if somebody's going to fake it
Then this somebody, somebody is you
If it's me that was going to take it
Then I know that it wouldn't be straight
And I keep telling my reflection
Ambitions are already starting to fade

I Can't tolerate…
I Can't tolerate…
(Can't tolerate)

And if somebody's going to make it
Then this somebody ought to be you
And if somebody's going to fake it
Then this somebody, somebody is you
If it's me that was going to take it
Then I know that it wouldn't be straight
And I keep telling my reflection
Ambitions are already starting to fade

And I keep telling my reflection
Ambitions are already starting to fad

You're in the wrong place
At the right time
You got the wrong face
But all the right lines
Now I'm all out of phase
It's all about a state of my mind
You got me sky high
Like rockets in flight now
Now something in my head
Just don't feel right
Don't you go ahead and say it
Don't you go and cross this line
Don't say I love you (say I love, say I love you)
Cause that would drive me crazy

When I see stop signs, I'm gonna run them down
When I see red lights, I'm gonna hit the ground
What you've done to me,
Turning my world upside down
Someone wake me up
Someone wake me up

Your kinda lowlife
Comes at a price
Keeps on feeding my appetite
And now you are my habit
Giving me a natural high
The more I keep on running away from you
Just don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't you go ahead and say it
Don't you go and cross this line
Don't say I love you (say I love, say I love you)
Cause that would drive me crazy

When I see stop signs, I'm gonna run them down
When I see red lights, I'm gonna hit the ground
What you've done to me,
Turning my world upside down
Someone wake me up
Someone wake me up

When I see stop signs, I'm gonna run them down
When I see red lights, I'm gonna hit the ground
What you've done to me,
Turning my world upside down
Someone wake me up
Someone wake me

How could not see
You pulling me in
When will I see the end begin
What a fool I have been
Lift me from the state I'm in

Yeah
Someone wake me up
Someone wake me

When I see stop signs, I'm gonna run them down
When I see red lights, I'm gonna hit the ground
What you've done to me,
Turning my world upside down
Someone wake me up
Someone wake me

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird... I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd... But don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed... But won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and away... Away from me
But it's all right.... You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy... Or anything...

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Inside of me
Inside me
Yeah, Inside me
Inside of me

I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
I'm only a man
Looking for a dream

I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
And it's not easy, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...

It's not easy to be me

I woke up late today
Actually I do that everyday
Got no place to be seen
I'm not part of a scene
I'm a genius loser
Keeping counsel with my own opinion
President of the state that I'm in
Should I just stay in bed?
Should I live in my head?
Oh God so many questions to ask

Oh you could call me lazy
I think of it as taking my time
Cos I don't want to do what I don't want to do
I'm the queen refusenik

But oh my God
If I was somebody I'd be doing it all just fine
But I'm a real late starter
So I'm making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody
You'd be kissing my arse right now
But I'm so polite - I do it all of the time
I missed my calling in life
Oh well

Day by day I wonder
If I will be torn asunder
By these things that I know
That nobody else knows
Or maybe it's the drinking
I guess we should consult a Bible
Everybody needs a sign or
Bless the birds and the bees
The flowers and trees
And blessed be the slacker

But oh my God
If I was somebody I'd be doing it all just fine
But I'm a real late starter
So I'm making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody
You'd be kissing my arse right now
But I'm so polite - I do it all of the time
I missed my calling in life
Oh well

You must be having a laugh
Oh God your having a laugh
No point in worrying if my days a disaster
Inside my little head I'm happy ever after
Yes I am

But oh my God
If I was somebody I'd be doing it all just fine
But I'm a real late starter
So I'm making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody
You'd be kissing my arse right now
But I'm so polite
I missed my calling in life

But oh my God
If I was somebody I'd be doing it all just fine
But I'm a real late starter
So I'm making up for lost time
Oh my God if I was somebody
You'd be kissing my arse right now
But I'm so polite - I do it all of the time
I missed my calling in life
Ohh what am I like
Yeah well
Oh well

Fingerprints are on the weapon
I have fallen for deception
Not again (cause i gotta have)
Not again with you

I am here in your confession
Will i ever learn my lesson
Not if im (cause i gotta have)
Not if im with you

I do so well when im alone
The truth is all i know

[Chorus]
I am good at falling in love
Not so good at falling out
This songs for you
If your the one,
The one that i can do without
I am great at being in love
Not so great at being out
This songs for you
If your the one
Then love me until the stars run out

But then i call and i am waiting
I hear your voice and i am fading
Not again (cause i gotta have)
Not again with you

So run away were far from home
See this is all i know

[Chorus] x2
I am good at falling in love
Not so good at falling out
This songs for you
If your the one,
The one that i can do without
I am great at being in love
Not so great at being out
This songs for you
If your the one
Then love me until the stars run out

Down in the basement
There's a light that shines
Escape to the city
Where we know we can be saved
When we feel like this it is deep inside
With the joy it brings then we feel alive

And it's all or nothing
Gonna be alright
Chasing good times
Into into the night
Do you feel like me
Can you read my mind
It's getting close
Coz something's got me burning up inside

When you feel the fire
Running through your veins
When the heat gets higher
And you can't and you can't be tamed
Like a burning sun
We are the chosen ones to dance
The night dance the night
When you dance the night with me

(Dance with me)
Imagination
(Dance with me)
Can drive you wild
(Dance with me)
The elevation
(Dance with me)
Can save and take you high
When we feel the light it is deep inside
With the joy it brings got me starting up tonight

When you feel the fire
Running through your veins
When the heat gets higher
And you can't and you can't be tamed
Like a burning sun
We are the chosen ones to dance
The night dance the night
When you dance the night with me

Feel the music and you can't resist
Feel the music and you can't resist
Feel the music and you can't resist
Feel the music and you can't resist

When you feel the fire
Running through your veins
When the heat gets higher
And you can't and you can't be tamed
Like a burning sun
We are the chosen ones to dance
The night dance the night
When you dance the night with me

When you feel the fire
Running through your veins
When the heat gets higher
And you can't and you can't be tamed
Like a burning sun
We are the chosen ones to dance
The night dance the night
When you dance the night with me

I can feel it deep inside of me
Something primal the beginnings of a scream
About to let go
I can hear it bouncing in my head
Keeps repeating every thought I've ever had
Like an echo

If you feel like I feel
And need to come in from the cold
So who cares if it's real
Just pretend there's sand between your toes

Just a little bit of fahrenheit
Just a little bit of heat tonight
As the mercury is rising
Temperature is climbing
I know what's on your mind
Just a little bit of fahrenheit
Just a breath away from paradise
But it's not too hot for dancing
Or for taking chances
So don't apologize

Can you see the lightning in the air
All the faces and electric atmosphere
They wana let go

Cause they feel like I feel
And need to come in from the cold
And so who cares if it's real
Just pretend there's sand between your toes

Just a little bit of fahrenheit
Just a little bit of heat tonight
As the mercury is rising
Temperature is climbing
I know what's on your mind
Just a little bit of fahrenheit
Just a breath away from paradise
But it's not too hot for dancing
Or for taking chances
So don't apologize

For the urge for the surge
Of the power of inside
Being blinded sometimes
By the lights it's all right
It's somewhere to go
Where your heart wants to be
Something you need when you've got to be free

Just a little bit of fahrenheit
Just a little bit of heat tonight
As the mercury is rising
Temperature is climbing
I know what's on your mind
Just a little bit of fahrenheit
Just a breath away from paradise
But it's not too hot for dancing
Or for taking chances
So don't apologize

First kiss first touch first time you ever said it back
When I close my eyes I still remember
Too much too fast too good to ever make it last
And when I woke up you were gone

Now I keep dreaming of falling back to sleep
Cause I know you will be waiting there for me
And every breath keeps me praying for the night
Cause I know you're on the other side
But I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake since you went away
I'm wide awake

Last hope last chance last time ever I felt alive
Was before the morning pulled you under
Tonight to close to lose the only thing that I
Ever believed could save me now

Now I keep dreaming of falling back to sleep
Cause I know you will be waiting there for me
And every breath keeps me praying for the night
Cause I know you're on the other side
But I'm wide awake
But I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I can't escape
I'm wide awake

Now I keep dreaming of falling back to sleep
Cause I know you will be waiting there for me
And every breath keeps me praying for the night
Cause I know you're on the other side
But I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake since you went away
I'm wide awake

But I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake since you went away
I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

You're better than the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler than the flip side of my pillow (that's right)
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me
Lets me know that it's okay (yeah, it's okay)
And the moments when my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you
Can drive me wild
Oh you make me smile

Even when you're gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower
Poking through the sidewalk crack
And just like that
You steal away the rain
And just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you
Can drive me wild
Oh you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you
Coz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you
Can drive me wild

Smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you
Can drive me wild
Oh you make me smile
(Oh you make me smile)
Oh you make me smile
(Oh you make me smile)

You've got me here with my defences down
Don't take a genius to figure out that you're
Used to your bed being a battleground
There's just no way, not me, not here, not now
Not when we've got something so strong

If love is war
Then you're a good reason to fight
Get beaten and fall to the floor
But I know I'll survive
Take that and more
Cos your love keeps me alive

There's only one way we could better this
And simplify how crazy hard it is
I know your tendency to sabotage
I can take the torture, you won't break this heart
Not when we've got something so strong

If love is war
Then you're a good reason to fight
Get beaten and fall to the floor
But I know I'll survive
Take that and more
Cos your love keeps me alive

Don't think for one minute
You've got to go easy on me
Cause I'm at my best
When lesser men would retreat

If love is war
Then you're a good reason to fight
Get beaten and fall to the floor
But I know I'll survive
Take that and more
Cos your love keeps me alive

If love is war
Then you're a good reason to fight
Get beaten and fall to the floor
But I know I'll survive
Take that and more
Cos your love keeps me alive

(originally by Miley Cyrus)

I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming, but
There's a voice inside my head saying
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make
Feels lost with no direction,
My faith is shakin'
But I gotta keep tryin'
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it, but
These are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most
I've just gotta keep goin', and
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on, but

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

Keep on movin'
Keep climbin'
Keep faith baby
It's all about, it's all about
The climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, woah
