Don’t give me what you think I need Cause I guarantee you’ll plant the wrong seed Fixin’ is not what I’m here for. The maze that I am, you’ll have to take the tour Trouble, I don’t mean to be But hey, I gots to be me. Together we’re complete, even when we disagree. There’s nothing to be said to give me any peace Oh, well, my dear, good try. This moment can not be denied That sometimes, sometimes I Won’t Be Satisfied Happy wife, happy life, um, I know I mystify Got your pressure on the rise Consider my point of view and I’ll give you what’s due You love me, I know it I love you, I’ll show it But it can’t be tonight On the heals of this fight I’m inconsolable And I need a moment more Oh, well, my dear, good try. This moment can not be denied That sometimes, sometimes I Won’t Be Satisfied I won’t be satisfied I won’t be satisfied I won’t be satisfied I won’t be satisfied Oh, well, my dear, good try. This moment can not be denied That sometimes, sometimes I Won’t Be Satisfied

Breathe in what you’ve been giving Figuring how to go on living Without you here (two-part harmony) It’s become very clear I don’t need you near No oh oh oh Oh, people sneak on you like second hand smoke Before you know it, you’ve taken a toke Cloaked as lover, family and friends All I know is in the end That I was blind to your camouflage Day by day you were choking me I couldn’t breathe Wrapped in your haze of games Push comes to shove This ain’t love Oh, people sneak on you like second hand smoke Before you know it, you’ve taken a toke Cloaked as lover, family and friends All I know is in the end That I was blind to your camouflage In my hair Everywhere In my skin I can’t mend You wafted into my life Under the haze Under the radar

Lullaby 04:17
Still my mind Letting go of time The strength of my soul has been drained from me My mind’s eye Seeks restored sight Of what I see as possibilities Pre-Chorus Inhale deeply Rest with ease, oh oh oh Lullaby Give me peace of mind To realign Lullaby Keep my dreams in sight And forever shine Hoping to achieve All that I believe Help me see, while I sleep, what’s within my reach There to find All that is desired The heart is the key, listen to it’s beat Lullaby Give me peace of mind To realign Lullaby Keep my dreams in sight And forever shine Lull me into a resting prayer Sleep holds the answers to all my cares Lull me into a resting prayer Sleep holds the answers to all my cares Lullaby Give me peace of mind To realign Lullaby Keep my dreams in sight And forever shine

ABC 05:41
I know the pain of being stuck Caught in a rut, down on my luck Light of day is not enough To rise from bed when times are tough Basic like ABC Falling down is a part of the journey Simple like 123 Falling down is a part of the rise I don’t always play it safe That’s never really been my mental state Dreams die if not engaged Without the risk there is no gain Basic like ABC Falling down is a part of the journey Simple like 123 Falling down is a part of the rise Basic like ABC Falling down is a part of the journey Simple like 123 Falling down is a part of the rise Basic like ABC Falling down is a part of the journey Simple like 123 Falling down is a part of the rise Basic like ABC Falling down is a part of the journey Simple like 123 Falling down is a part of the rise

Love back then was so very easy Uncomplicated. Light and breezy Even though we’ve stood the test of time The years have worn us down Oh I️ see the look in your eyes And I️ miss the joy and pride You’ll understand when you come to Cause I️ only want you I want love, can you feel it? I want love, can you deal with it? Passionate, like We used to do You hear me talking to you? It felt so good, and it was true No doubt inside, that I loved you Butterfly flutter-free, my nerves were calm My love for you was a constant balm The whole of you left me entranced When we danced, it was pure romance You’ll understand when you come to Where is our glue, baby? I want love, can you feel it? I want love, can you deal with it? Passionate, like We used to do You hear me talking to you? Ooooh I know that this don’t seem like me I know it’s strange to see These complexities have robbed you and me I ain’t over you, so what you gonna do I want that feeling of passion Of loving you through the night Remember Then fight for it Then fight for us, baby We can make it Even though it might get tough I want your love I want your love
