  • Sand stinging against my face

    As we walked to the shore

    Didn't know that those waves

    Were the warning for the war

    Took our picture as

    We smiled into the wind,

    To the wind, to the wind

    Wade into all those

    Feelings until the end,

    Til the end, til the end

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see that you're a ray

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see that you're a

    Ray of sunshine

    You drive out, skid the tires

    Don't try to blame it on sleep

    Know the car could pull that hard

    Sun still shining when I scream

    Took our picture as

    We smiled into the wind,

    To the wind, to the wind

    Wade into all those

    Feelings until the end,

    Til the end, til the end

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see that you're a ray

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see that you're a

    Ray of sunshine

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see that you're a ray

    Ooo get out of your own way

    Can't you see that you're a ray

    Ooo get out

    Get out

    Get out

    Get out

    Oh get out

    Get out

    Get out

    Get out

  • Can you feel it in the morning

    Wake up

    Find some coffee you can pour in

    Your cup

    If you feel it in the night time

    Then let it groove

    No more waiting til the sunrise

    To let our bodies move

    Wake up

    Left right hands and steps

    Let the nerves fall away

    Fitting right curves and hips

    Your heart is wide awake

    Wake up

    Wake up

    Don’tcha wait until the floor is

    Cleared out

    Let me hear you join the chorus

    Right now

    gotta live it the limelight

    Not in the shade

    don’t need to have your hindsight

    To tell us to be brave

    Right now

    Left right hands and steps

    Let the nerves fall away

    Fitting right curves and hips

    Your heart is wide awake

    Wake up

    Wake up

    Left right hands and steps

    Let the nerves fall away

    Fitting right curves and hips

    Your heart is wide awake

    Wake up

    Wake up

  • I don’t have time to be lonely

    Cause I spend every second with you only

    And I count the minutes until you can hold me

    Feels like I am falling and feels like I am floating oh

    I know you’re a good man

    I’m in it now there's no greater than

    I’m invested in your kiss

    It’s a calculated risk

    You make me feel rich

    Need to count up all my blessings

    Cause you bring all the balance I was missing

    And I guess it can be kind of reassuring

    Too many plants to water can become a good thing.

    I know you’re a good man

    I’m in it now there’s no greater than

    I’m invested in your kiss

    It’s a calculated risk

    You make me feel rich

    You know I don’t care what you got in the bank

    I just care what’s in your heart

    I know you’re a good man

    I’m in it now there's no greater than

    I’m invested in your kiss

    It’s a calculated risk

    I know you’re a good man

    I’m in it now there's no greater than

    I’m invested in your kiss

    It’s a calculated risk

    You make me feel rich

    You make me feel so rich

    You make me feel so rich

    You make me feel so rich

    You make me feel so rich

  • Little me would climb a tree

    Little me would only be thinking about the daylight

    How can I get outside

    It's time to get in touch with my inner child (inner child)

    Jump into some puddles let my dreams run wild (dreams run wild)

    Little me would climb a rope

    Little me would never be worried at what I don't know

    How deep does the water go?

    Little me would learn as I go

    Little me would know all the boundaries as I broke them

    Every puddle is an ocean

    It's time to get in touch with my inner child (inner child)

    Jump into some puddles let my dreams run wild (dreams run wild)

    It's time to get in touch with my inner child (inner child)

    Playing make believe til it goes out of style (out of style)

    I used to play so wild and free

    I would run and run so far

    Unaware of the dirt on me

    Or the placement of my scars

    It's time to get in touch

    Playing make-believe

    It's time to get in touch

    Playing make-believe til it goes out of style

    It's time to get in touch with my inner child (inner child)

    Jump into some puddles let my dreams run wild (dreams run wild)

    It's time to get in touch with my inner child (inner child)

    Playing make believe til it goes out of style (out of style)

    It's time

    It's time

    It's time to get in touch

    It's time

    It's time

    It's time

    It's time

    Little me would climb a tree

  • Shower in the sunshine

    Smell the magnolia blooms

    You are so fine

    Don't need anyone to approve

    And you are so worthy and so divine

    It is only by your heart you are defined,

    You played it right at me, I felt our eyes meet mmm

    Between you and the one who holds you tight

    Was it meant for me

    Was it meant for me

    Was it meant for me

    Was it meant for me

    Or was it my apology, so heavy and overdue

    How thoughtful coming coming from you

    I swear it felt like just you and me in the room

    But was I wrong and if so, if so then who

    Was it meant for me

    Was it meant for me

    Was it meant for me

    That this sentiment was not meant for me

    I was not the intended recipient
