THIS GIRL

V1
Money rains from the sky above
But keep the change, cause I’ve got enough
A little time and some tenderness
You’ll never buy my love

No other thing that’s as precious too
(No other.... theres no other)
Than a heart that’s real and a heart thats true
Something that you got to know

CHORUS
This girl, (dont need diamonds so bright)
This girl, (dont need money alright)
This girl, (just got to hold me all night)
You’ll never buy my love

V2
These presents don’t really come for free
Your pay checks don’t mean that much to me
Just take my hand and hold me tight
You’ll never buy my love

You buy me this and you buy me that
(to win over, win me over)
You got me wrong and thats a fact
Something that you got to know

CHORUS
This girl, (don’t need diamonds so bright)
This girl, (don’t need money alright)
This girl, (just got to hold me all night)
You’ll never buy my love

BRIDGE
Will you realise when I’m gone
That I dance to a different song
It’s a shame but I got to go
There’s something that you'll never know
CHORUS x 2

AD LIBS

SETTLE THE SCORE

V1
It’s a matter of trust ,C’mon and jump on the bus
You got me wishin’
Always in a rush, make me scream and cuss
Wont you listen
You can’t do no wrong, when were alone
You sing a different song, when you not home
Trying to string me along, now you got me wrong
Aint so simple
In a moment or two, I’ll be leaving you
If you aint careful

PRE CHORUS
You’re up to no good, gotto be the man like you should

V2
Getting fed up with you, its time to be true
Its nearly over
Why can’t you see, between you and me

CHORUS / AD LIB OUT

REAL LIFE BABY

V1
I brushed the cobwebs off this heart of mine
So out of use, out of love, so out of fashion
I thought love only came to the lucky ordained
Who knew that I was one of the lucky ones who knew that you would come

CHORUS
I'm walking, walking on air now
So high I ain't got a care now
I've got me, got me a real life baby

I'm feeling light as a feather
My heart’s as bright as the weather
I got me, got me a real life baby

V2
Don't get me wrong I wasn't down and out
I was alive I was afloat but now I'm
Breathing easy
And I can't recall any
Time when it all seemed so
Unimportant, insignificant, superfluous, so irrelevant
You are all I see

CHORUS

Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Hey

MIDDLE
No you're not the shining knight
You see in all them stories no
No you were just a hand last night
I had too many whiskeys
You quenched the drought
Now I've got something thing to shout about
You may not be forever, but this morning as I'm creeping out your window, I

V1
Straight out the frypan to the fire
Pressure cookin’ till it’s gonna blow
Now that we’ve come down to the wire
Don’t be lookin’ like you got to go

Blown my fuse and breakin all the rules

V2
Steam is rising up into the ceiling
Thermostat is heading to the red
You cant stop, you just can’t fight the feeling
Turning round and round inside your head.

You light me up, I’m burning like a candle
Can’t get a grip I’m losin’ hold of you
Too hot to touch and much to hot to handle
Can’t cool down no matter what I do

CHORUS x2

MORE THAN A MOUTHFUL

V1
There was a yes in your eyes before the words were in my mouth
And I was not going to leave that alone
Im a reflective surface and the light was shining out
That light was shining out
Should have gone when I had time
Close my eyes to the soul shine

CHORUS
Looks like you’ve bitten off more than a mouthful
(don”t waste it)
Your stringin’ me out on a line
Looks like from here on you’ve got your hands full
(that’s allright boy)
Hit me back when you got time

V2
When a job needs doin’ find a busy man
This is getting out of control (no control)
Lucky your not the only one around (who) can do me right
Only one around (who) can do me right
On my knees you got no time
I got needs in the meantime

CHORUS
Looks like you’ve bitten off more than a mouthful
(don”t waste it)
Your stringin’ me out on a line
Looks like from here on you’ve got your hands full
(that’s allright boy)
Hit me back when you got time
From now on we both gotta be truthful
(no lies)
I really think this thing could turn out beautiful

BRIDGE
Now that I know what its like to be the only thing on your mind
I just know I cant go back
(cant go back)
And you know me by now and you know I wont do that
Should have gone when I had time
Close my eyes to the soul shine

CHORUS
Looks like you’ve bitten off more than a mouthful
(don”t waste it)
Your stringin’ me out on a line
Looks like from here on you’ve got your hands full
