Josh Kelley Album

Talk to me like I don't get it
Maybe you don't get me
You're a rich girl in momma's high heels
And someday you're gonna see

I got x-ray vision, I'll see right through you
Like crystal and we're standing in this room
And who you are ain't who I am
That's alright with me

What I love about you is
You're the opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?

'Cause we're day and night
Baby it's so right that we do agree
What I love about you is that you are
The opposite of me

You're speaking some shady lingo
That someday I'd love to learn
You're a bad girl in daddy's new wheels
Watching that rubber burn

It's a game little lover but ain't it fun
Trying to figure out where you're coming from
I'll take my chance, come on let's dance
It's how it's got to be

What I love about you is
You're the opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?

'Cause we're day and night
Baby it's so right that we do agree
What I love about you is that you are
The opposite of me

They say that opposites attract
Whatcha gonna say 'bout that?
No, no more excuses
Just relax

What I love about you is
You're the opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?

What I love about you is
You're the opposite of me
Instead of fighting about it
Why don't we just let it be?

'Cause we're day and night
Baby it's so right that we do agree
What I love about you is that you are
The opposite, oh no

They say that opposites attract
Whatcha gonna say about that
No more excuses, baby
Now look at my eyes and I'll tell you
What's so right now

Flipping through the magazines and
Staring at the beauty queens
I wonder if I can live the way they do
Wouldn't it be nice if I could be so recognized
I wouldn't have to wait in line with all of you

What would I want that for?
What would I need that for?

I could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star

Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
Now would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?
In the pop game

Living in the pop game
In the pop game

I've gotta admit, I've changed a bit
But what the public wants, the public gets
And my designer jeans
They make my ass look tight

And if I play my cards correct
Well, you can guarantee I'll cash the check
'Cause I don't wanna live on what I'm making tonight

Break through another door
Find what I'm put here for

I could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star

Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
Now would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?
In the pop game

So just lend your ears while I sing my song
'Cause I think I can take you higher
All our friends are here
Come and sing along

And we all sing
La, la, la, la, la, la
Come and sing with me
La, la, la, la, la, la

And you sing with me, we go
La, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, sing it
La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah

I could flip backwards
Sing a little faster
Bring them all to their feet
Living like a rock star

Climbing up the pop charts
Be the flavor of the week
Now would you still remember my name?
Could you still remember my name?

Well, if you think so go
La, la, la, la, la, la

I'm holdin' on
To your pictures on my telephone
And I know that I should let you go
But it's hard to break away

I ask around and I wonder what you're doing now
But I hear that you've been going out
A little more these days

Well, I can't lie that I think from time to time how you're doing
Well, don't hang up 'cause what I really meant to say is

When everything is wrong
Nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find

So just say the word
And I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side, holdin' on

Remember when we were further than you've ever been
And I think about it now and then
And it takes me to that place

Oh and I pretend that I'm better than I've ever been
Well, at least that's what I tell my friends
'Cause I can't show my face

Well I can't lie that I think from time to time how you're doing
Well, don't hang up 'cause what I really meant to say

When everything is wrong
Nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find

So just say the word
And I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side

It's hard enough to believe
In something more than just pretend
Just because we both know it's over
We can still be friends

When everything is wrong
Nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find

So just say the word
And I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side
I can be right there by your side
Oh, I can be right there by your side

I'm sick of chasing after things
I'd rather them chase after me
Keeping up is bound to wear me down
There's a million ways to skin a cat

I put my choices in a hat
Picked a few and threw the bad ones out
Well, I know now

So if you want me
You better knock me down
'Cause I ain't easy
And this ain't hallowed ground

I've been thinking 'bout old Cain and Able
Sittin' at a breakfast table
Talking 'bout the way things used to be

Able looked at Cain and said
"All that shit was in your head"
I'd like to think that Cain was hard to please
Well, I know now

So if you want me
You better knock me down
'Cause I ain't easy
And this ain't hallowed ground

She said, "No one will love you more than me"
I looked at her, she looked at me
I think she's waiting for me to believe

I wish that love was all it took
I'd fall into you if I could
Hoping for a graceful recovery
Well, I know now

So if you want me
You better knock me down
'Cause I ain't easy
And this ain't hallowed ground

Red lights lead to green lights
And the exit of her heart
Our fights lead to long nights
And the wrong way to part

Lady of mine
Give me one more try
'Cause I can do better
So much better

Her love's what I'm made of
They're the boundaries that we choose
Oh, teach me just what you've seen
With the patience of your youth

Lady of mine
Give me one more try
'Cause I can do better
So much better

Lady of mine
Don't say your goodbyes
'Cause I can do better
So much better

You can
Through your weight
My way

You're the best remedy
You're the best medicine that I know

Lady of mine
Give me one more try
'Cause I can do better
So much better

Lady of mine
Don't say your goodbyes
'Cause I can do better
So much better, better, better love

I said love
I feel like I'm standing on top of the sun
And even your temperature won't make me run

Being with you makes me feel
So alive, mesmerized
I realize that it's in your eyes

Honey, this is not just a fantasy
Let me keep on keeping it real
Being with you makes me feel
So alive, mesmerized, I realize that it's in your eyes

Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to be alone

Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to let it go

People, they say 'You will never find love'
They say 'It's a myth, all you want is that touch'
But I disagree 'cause I know I feel
So alive, mesmerized
I realize that it's in her eyes

Honey, feel like I'm floating on that ecstasy
Oh, give me something more so I can feel it
So alive it's in your eyes
I'm mesmerized, gonna blow your mind

Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to be alone

Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we can never let it go

I feel so high
Oh, my baby she makes me wanna touch the sky
Oh you never know unless you try

Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we don't want to be alone

Hi oh, hey oh
This is how the story goes
And you know, I know
That we can never let it go

I realize that it's in your eyes
I realize that it's in your eyes
I realize that it's in your eyes
I realize that it's in your eyes

Gonna blow your mind
I'm gonna blow your mind
I wanna blow your mind

Gonna blow your mind
I wanna blow your mind
Gonna blow your mind

I realize that it's in your eyes

It's hard to say goodbye
When I'm holding out my hands
Holding out my hands for love
That opened my eyes
Filled with tears that never dry
For you the angels cry

Goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love, you're beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, the stars up above will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodnight, my beautiful, goodbye

It's hard to comprehend
Our beginning is the end of a love
That never had a chance to dance with you
So I choose to take this pain
And wish for more to say than

Goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love, you're beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, the stars up above will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodnight, my beautiful, goodbye

Oh, sweet angel of mine
Gone to sail through the night
In my heart you'll always be
I hope that you'll remember me wherever you are

Goodnight, goodnight, sweet love, you're beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, stars up above will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodnight, goodbye

Oh, goodnight, goodnight, my sweet love, you're beautiful
Goodnight, goodnight, the stars up above will be bright
Despite a love bound and broken from the start
Goodnight, my beautiful, goodbye

The worst mistake is giving up
Pulling back when you've had too much
Of not knowing where you belong

The one thing I am certain of
Is time will change each one of us
For this you're not on your own
So open your voice and be strong

You are not alone
You are what you believe
You are now alone
You're a part of everything

When life gets you down
Set your soul at ease
You are not alone
You're a part of everything

The cheapest secret is the truth
Until you finally set it loose
Such an unbelievable game
Well, if you've got something to say
Let it out

Give us something to talk about
So that you're not on your own
Open your voice and be strong

You are not alone
You are what you believe
You are now alone
You're a part of everything

When life gets you down
Set your soul at ease
You are not alone
You're a part of everything

Don't people tell you
That you won't amount to nothing
Get out of the way, get out of the way
Do your thing, do your thing, do your thing

Do you thing, give me your thing
It's a beautiful thing, get up

You are not alone
You are what you believe
You are now alone
You're a part of everything

When life gets you down
Set your soul at ease
You are not alone
You're a part of everything

You are not alone
You are what you believe
You are now alone
You're a part of everything

When life gets you down
Set your soul at ease
You are not alone

You're a part of
You're a part of everything
You're a part of
You're a part of everything

I'm a kid with a reputation
Of playing hard in every possible direction
She's a girl you don't refuse
She gives a kinda love you never wanna lose

And I, I'm running round in circles
My little lady she keeps me on my toes
And I got to got to tell ya now

Fools like me need someone like you
To keep me from doin' the things I do
Fools like me needs someone like you

To keep it all together
Just keep it all together
Let's keep it together now

I tried and tried to resist your temptation
I pretended not to hear you conversation
But there you were in your purple velvet shoes
Painting visions of a world I never knew

And now we're dance around in circles
And you don't mind me stepping on your toes
And I got to, got to tell you now

Fools like me need someone like you
To keep me from doin' the thing that I do
Fools like me need someone like you

To keep it all together
Just keep it together
Let's keep it together now

You've gotta help me
Oh, help me keep it all together now

Fools like me need someone like you
To keep me from doing the things I do
Fools like me need someone like you

To keep it all together
Just keep it all together
Keep it, keep it, keep it all together right now

She would sit alone by the bank
Always coming home so late
She'd take off all her clothes and jump in
I'd be giving up, man, if she'd be giving in

Baby, let me dry your hair
I got some clothes that you can wear
Over there on the bed

And I'd always forgive her
But the Mississippi river never did

She'd sit out on the dock and put her feet in
She was skipping rocks
And she was skipping school again

She stole my only cigarettes
She smoked the whole pack one by one
Light 'em up and put 'em to her lips

And I'd always forgive her
But the Mississippi river never did

She was always running away
No matter how hard I tried, she would never stay
And I wish that she would run to me
Like the Mississippi river is running towards the sea

And now my poor heart is on the mend
And I'll always be with her
Because the Mississippi river never ends

I'll always be with her
Because the Mississippi river never ends

Today I'm wrapped up in your arms
Right where I wanna be
The sky is bright, this love is wider than the open sea

'Cause I'm bound to go
And I can't stop this train from moving on ya know
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you

I know you've got your problems
Hey, now baby I've got mine
We fuss and fight 'bout who is right
And who is out of line

But keep on falling in right next to me
Baby, keep on falling in right next to me

'Cause we're bound to grow
And I can't stop my roots from grabbing hold ya know
For a love like this it's few and far between
For a love like this it's few and far between

If the tide ceases to provide a current to pull us through
I'll crank up the engine and get my motor spinning back to you
I'm gonna get my motor spinning back to you

Ya know I'm bound to go
And I can't stop this train from moving on you know

With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you
With a love like this I'll steer it back to you

I'm holdin' on
To your pictures on my telephone
And I know that I should let you go
But it's hard to break away

I ask around and I wonder what you're doing now
But I hear that you've been going out
A little more these days

Well, I can't lie that I think from time to time how you're doing
Well, don't hang up 'cause what I really meant to say is

When everything is wrong
Nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find

So just say the word
And I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side, holdin' on

Remember when we were further than you've ever been
And I think about it now and then
And it takes me to that place

Oh and I pretend that I'm better than I've ever been
Well, at least that's what I tell my friends
'Cause I can't show my face

Well I can't lie that I think from time to time how you're doing
Well, don't hang up 'cause what I really meant to say

When everything is wrong
Nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find

So just say the word
And I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side

It's hard enough to believe
In something more than just pretend
Just because we both know it's over
We can still be friends

When everything is wrong
Nothing's going right
Just know that I'm not hard to find

So just say the word
And I'll race to you tonight
And I'll be right there by your side
I can be right there by your side
Oh, I can be right there by your side

[No lyrics]

With the situation that you're in
It's time to thicken up your skin
So you can try to live again
Like an innocent soldier

How do I begin
To describe where you begin
Start by picking up your chin
Take a deep, deep breath
A deep, deep breath
A deep, deep breath

Grab the bottle deep inside
You know the one you tried to hide
Still angry and alive
Waiting for a good fix
Break it on the ground
Celebrate you're still around
You can start with the sound of
A deep, deep breath
Deep, deep breath
Deep, deep breath

Oh, I know
How you feel inside
Let it go
Oh, you know
You gotta open up your heart
And let it go

Take control of
Never letting go

Start with the sound
Of a deep, deep breath
a deep, deep breath (x10)
