Blue Skies and Happiness
Blue skies and happiness
Those were your promises
But it’s been raining for days and I’m so sad
Why does it have to be so bad?
Happiness and blue skies
Those were your biggest lies
Everyone told me you’re a prince
The thought of you now just makes me wince
Oh I was blind to all your lies
But now I’m starting to realize
With you it’s all grey skies
Sunshine and crystal streams
Mocking me in my dreams
I wake up to you and my heart sinks
Remembering you’re my everything
Crystal streams and sunshine
Someday they will be mine
But you won’t be there with me no way
No room for you clouds of misery
Oh I was blind to all your lies
But now I’m starting to realize
With you it’s all grey skies
Blue skies and happiness
One thing I must confess:
I never believed that you’re the one
And now I believe that we are done

Pennies
I know I know I don't want to go
Wandering down that old rabbit hole
I think for sure we've been here before
This is nothing less than civil war
And I still bend down to pick up pennies
Reasons to smile, you don't need many
And I still skip stones
Still balance on the guardrail on that long walk home
I know I know the world has gone mad
We're here to sort the good from the bad
But it takes everything you've got just to survive
It's an accomplishment to be alive
And I still bend down to pick up pennies
Reasons to smile, you don't need many
And I still skip stones
Still balance on the guardrail on that long walk home
I know I know that sometimes it seems
This nightmare is swallowing our dreams
But there is never ever any doubt
we're gonna turn this nightmare inside out
And I still bend down to pick up pennies
Reasons to smile, you don't need many
And I still skip stones
Still balance on the guardrail on that long walk home

Neighborhood Boys
It's your bus stop I want to get off
Find a place where we can talk
But I'm just watching you walk
Away from me, you don't even turn
Unaware I'm carrying this burden
You leave me alone with the neighborhood boys
And you don't even care what kind of trouble I'm getting into
You leave me alone with the neighborhood boys
And you don't even notice that my heart is always with you
It's your bus stop, it's your stomping ground
A place I should never be found
Better turn this bus around
But you're incapable of being cruel
The picture of politeness as you
You leave me alone with the neighborhood boys
And you don't even care what kind of trouble I'm getting into
You leave me alone with the neighborhood boys
And you don't even notice that my heart is always with you
It's your bus stop I want to get off
I'm gathering up my stuff
I've dreamed of you long enough
I'm not gonna let you walk away
I'm determined I will not allow you
To leave me alone with the neighborhood boys
And you don't even care what kind of trouble I'm getting into
You leave me alone with the neighborhood boys
And you don't even notice that my heart is always with you

Dream in Color

Dream in Color
Think fast, faster than you can haul ass
Away from your deep and dark past
Silence the voices and ask
Why don’t you dream in color?
Breathe deep, deeper than the deepest sleep
Exhale, the cycle’s complete
Simple, and so please tell me
Why don’t you dream in color?
Why is the sky always gray in your eyes?
Watercolors bleed from a brush in a glass on the table
The things you're going to see - I know it sounds corny
But everything will be a rainbow
Love true, truer than you’re used to
Do it because you want to
Am I the first to ask you
Why don’t you dream in color?
And why is the sky always gray in your eyes?
I’ll redo it all, like changing the cloth on the table
You'll sit down with me - I know it sounds crazy
But everything will be a rainbow
Think fast, faster than you can haul ass
Away from your deep and dark past
Won’t you tell me at long last
Why don’t you dream in color?

Stay
Well you’re caught in the wind why don’t you come in?
It won’t be long
Now here comes the rain and I won’t ask again
You can’t go wrong
I’m the daughter of my father and on his behalf I welcome you to stay
This house is mine until the end of time
So stay with me oh yeah
Stay with me
Stay
Well your head’s full of doubt you can’t figure it out
There’s shelter here
I can’t promise you peace but I’ll know that at least
you’ll be safe my dear
I’m the daughter of my mother and at her behest I’ll kiss your tears away
This love is mine until the end of time
So stay with me oh yeah
Stay with me
Stay
I’ve been thinking of you and the things that you do and I’m quite smitten
But I’m playing it sly cause I’m feeling twice shy, once bitten
But I am lonely and inclined to be a little reckless here so come on in
This dream is mine until the end of time
So stay with me oh yeah
Stay with me
Stay

Forever Kisses
Here then gone another love
All hits are misses
Find the one who's dreaming of
Forever kisses
It's no small thing to be loved
A lifetime is never enough
The world owes me nothing
What I've grabbed
Gradually slips
But all the love I've ever had
Forever kisses
No love is lost in the end
Whether a lover or friend
Forever kisses
Forever kisses
Forever kisses love
Forever kisses love
Sunshine and sandwiches on the beach
Water caressing
As we swam into the deep
Forever kisses
Why can't we stay the same?
Young and beautiful again?
Forever kisses
Forever kisses
Forever kisses love
Forever kisses
Forever kisses
Forever kisses love
Forever kisses love

Do it for Dinero
I'm dressed like a rodeo whore
My vest: like swinging saloon doors
But you see beyond mascara
You know I do it for dinero
I'm down and I don't know the reason
This well is too deep to fathom
I smile while they shoot me full of arrows
You know I do it for dinero
I do everything that I do
I do, I do it for dinero
By now you should really know me
I'm not what you were expecting
I stray from the straight and narrow
You know I do it for dinero
I do everything that I do
I do everything that I do
I do, I do it for dinero

Lost in Your Eyes
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
I’m just lost so lost in your eyes
I’m on dangerous ground
And I don’t want to be found
Take back your GPS
Cause there’s no way out of this mess
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
I’m just lost so lost in your eyes
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
It’s like we’re in a dream
A gigantic cinema screen
You know that we are the stars
Of the whole wide universe
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
I’m just lost so lost in your eyes
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
Someone saw my distress
Threw me a lifeline I guess
But I don’t need rescuing
I’m happy to leave everything
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
I’m just lost so lost in your eyes
I’m so lost so lost in your eyes
