something about you ~ level 42
Now
How can it be
That a love
Carved out of caring
Fashioned by fate
Could suffer so hard
From the games
Played once too often
But making mistakes
Is a part
Of life’s imperfections
Born of the years
Is it so wrong
To be human after all

Drawn into the stream
Of undefined illusion
Those diamond dreams
They can’t disguise the truth
That there is something about you
Baby so right
I wouldn’t be without you
Baby tonight

If ever our love
Was concealed
No one can say that
We didn’t feel
A million things
And a perfect dream of life
Gone
Fragile but free
We remain
Tender together
If not so in love
And it’s not so wrong
We’re only human after all

These changing years
They add to your confusion
Oh and you need to hear
The time that told the truth

You know there’s something about you
Baby so right
I wouldn’t be without you
Baby tonight
Because there’s something about you
Baby so right
I couldn’t live without you
Baby tonight

Something about you
The way you are so right
I wouldn’t be
Without you here tonight
There’s something about you
The way you are so right
I couldn’t live
Without you here tonight

9. Hi bridgit
You know when a song has just the right mix of harmony and melody and a snappy bass line and a really cool tag It give me goose bumps. Doesn't that happen to everyone? :)

13. Lessons in Love
I’m not proud, I was wrong
And the truth is hard to take
I felt sure we had enough
But our love went overboard
Lifeboat lies lost at sea
I’ve been trying to reach your shore
Waves of doubt keep drowning me

All the dreams that we were building
We never fulfilled them
Could be better, should be better
For lessons in love

For restless eyes egos burn
And the mold is hard to break
Now we’ve waded in too deep
And love is overboard
Heavy hearts token words
All the hopes I ever had
Fade like footprints in the sand

All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better, should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it, yeah
Lessons in love
Lost without love

Lessons in love
When will you ever learn
Lessons in love
When there’s nowhere left to turn
Lessons in love
Don’t let your spirit burn
Lessons in love
I’ll wait ’till you return

All the dreams that we were building
We never lived them
We could lose it, we should use it
(lessons in love) lessons in love
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better (could be better), should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it (good God)
Lessons in love
