Say What You Want: The Collection

When you touch me
I feel there's nothing you could do to turn me away
And I know that
In the past you've had that luck so I should help you stay

[Chorus]
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever needed it's you
You're all I've ever wanted
Loving you is the right thing to do

And I'll see it through

When I close my eyes
I think of you it takes me places that I've never seen
And the rain, it blows
You're brushing up against my skin to wash me clean

[Chorus]

And I'll see it through

I'll show you the love in my head
I'll show you the love that we have
I'll show you the love in my head
I'll show you the love that we have

[Chorus:Repeat x3]

And I'll see it through

All these bruises keep me awake
I guess I'm just too tired to sleep
And God only knows I'm too lost to cry
For kissing liars has kept me true

I'll fall (hold me tight)
But I'll heal (hold me tight)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (hold me tight)
But I'll heal (hold me tight)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

He hates so much his love he says
Inside it's dark, I need to smile
He shouts so loud I never hear
That's why the truth's always abused
As I slip into unconsciousness
I never felt so much to blame

I'll fall (hold me tight)
But I'll heal (hold me tight)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (hold me tight)
But I'll heal (hold me tight)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

As I slip into unconsciousness
I never felt so much to blame

I'll fall (hold me tight)
But I'll heal (hold me tight)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (hold me tight)
But I'll heal (hold me tight)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (another day another night)
But I'll heal
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (another day another night)
But I'll heal
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (another day another night)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'll fall (another day another night)
So hold me tight
Cause I'm so lonely

I'm tired of telling the story
Tired of telling it your way
Yeh I know what I saw
I know that I found the floor

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

I thought I had a dream to hold
Maybe that has gone
Your hands reach out and touch me still
But this feels so wrong

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

I'm over you

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I don't want a lover
I just need a friend

You can't just leave me
To face life on my own
I know you don't love me no more
I knew this day it would come
Even when it cuts so deep
It's true I still want you
But the harder I try
The more I seem to lose

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I've had time to recover
Now that I know it wasn't love

It's always a different story
When it's me who's in the wrong
But you can't have it all
Cause I'm the one who's strong
I've already been burnt before
Once but never again
I know the time will come
That's when you need me then

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I've had time to recover
Now that I know it wasn't love

I don't want a lover
I just need a prayer
I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasn't love

You don't even care
About what I'm saying
You don't even think
What you're doing
All you see is what you want it to be
But in there there's just no room for me

I don't want a lover
I just need a friend
I've had time to recover
Now that I know it wasn't love

You don't even care
About what I'm saying
You don't even think
What you're doing
All you see is what you want it to be
But in there, there's just no room for me

I don't want a lover
I just need a prayer
I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasn't love

I don't want a lover
I just need a prayer

I know you never cared
Now that I know it wasn't love

There are things
I can't tell you
I love you too much to say
I stand undressed
But I'm not naked
You look at me and who I am

Understand that it is hard to tell you
That I've given all I have to give
And I can understand your feelings
But then everybody has a life to live

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Now reach out
You can touch me
I'll let you have my life to share
Years, the days
And the minutes
Yeah time has such a puzzling grace

Understand that it is hard to tell you
That I've given all I have to give
And I can understand your feelings
But then everybody has a life to live

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

I just need to have your love
I just can't say no
It's a gift from way above
I just can't say no
It's the one big difference
If there's one thing I can have
I just can't say no
I just can't say no
Yeah yeah yeah

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime
You have seen what I've seen
You will always swim for shore
Once in my lifetime
I'll never be in between
Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime

Twenty seconds on the back time
I feel you're on the run
Never lived too long to make right
I see you're doing fine

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

What I am is what you want of me
Yeh, now that I'm not there
I took the tables away from you
It's turned that I don't care

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

Well, you can say what you want
But that won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But that won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

I've said goodnight
Try to sleep tight
Ah just dream of me
Go close your eyes
Cause I've closed mine
The sun will shine from time to time
Oh, when you dream of me, yeh

Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same
About you

We were together i was blown away,
just like paper from a fan,
but you would act like i was just a kid,
like we were never gonna last.

CHORUS
But now i've got someone who cares for me, yeah, he wrote my name in silver sands.
I think you know you've lost the love of your life
and you said "i was the best you've ever had",
because I'm in demand,
you're thinking of the way you should have held my hand
and all the times you said you didn't understand,
you never had our love written in your plans,
but now I'm in demand.

don't ever think you saw the best of me,
there's a side you'll never know,
coz love and loving are two different things, set your sights far too low.
CHORUS
Its only when i fall asleep,
i see that winning smile,
then my dreams just move along,
you've lost the race by miles.
