Your poppa don't mind at all You can't surprise him anymore Your poopa don't mind what you do or say He don't believe in heaven like a good man should Give it a word, give it a try Why don't you sleep out, stop living high You're on your own, your making

Girl, what's your favorite song I'll be your DJ tonight You don't have to say a word I see the look in your eyes And we'll keep rockin' 'til the last call Feelin' alright, yeah, yeah Now you're callin' me baby While I keep on fallin', yeah Oh, oh, oh, oh

It's only words, and words are all I have To take your heart away You think that I don't even mean A single word I say Smile an everlasting smile A smile can bring you near to me Don't ever let me find you gone 'Cause that would bring a tear to me This

Oh well (say) I don't suppose you have a moment to spare me Do you? Do you? I have the suspicion you're not being yourself Remember I told you, I need you Remember the spark that was there All of the words that I'm saying Are just a fancy way of saying

Don't you bring me down today Don't you bring me down today Every day is so wonderful And suddenly, it's hard to breathe Now and then, I get insecure From all the pain, I'm so ashamed I am beautiful no matter what they say Words can't bring me down I am

You're my favorite song I'd never wanna change a single note It's what I tried to say all along Words don't come easy without a melody I'm always thinking in terms of do-re-mi I should be hiking, swimming, laughing with you Instead I'm all out of tune

Pushing me away Ya push, push, pushing me away Every last word, every single thing you say Try to stop me now, but it's already too late If you really don't care, then say it to my face You push, push, you're pushing me away Push, push, pushing me away

Tell me that it isn't true All of those awful things that I have heard I don't want to believe them, all I want is your word I have heard rumors all over town They say that you're planning to put me down All I would like you to do Is tell me that it

I don't believe a word you say I see your mouth moving But there's a circus coming out Always busy proving What the world is all about It's no use looking you in the eye Blame it on hard living Blame it on the times Blame it on the victims

All I want is everything I don't know how to leave you And I don't know how to stay I've got things that I must tell you That I don't know how to say The man behind these empty words Is crying out in shame Holding on to this sinking ship
