Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Ever After Right now I want to be here With you It can't be clearer I know That we've been strangers Tell me Is love in danger? A hopeless feeling gravity Is falling all away from me (And) Tears me from my stony keep Into the sky to set me free And when you see your river run Falling on the setting sun A waterfall on everyone Where stars align and come undone And I love you Ever After Ever After Yes I love you Ever After Ever After This time It's hard believing My eyes And all they're seeing Tell me That we're not strangers Tell me Love's not in danger A hopeless feeling gravity Is falling all away from me (And) Tears me from my stony keep Into the sky to set me free And when you see your river run Falling on the setting sun A waterfall on everyone Where stars align and come undone And I love you Ever After Ever After Yes I love you Ever After Ever After Oh I love you Ever After Ever After Oh I love you Till we're happy Ever After And I love you Ever After Ever After Yes I love you Ever After Ever After Oh I love you Ever After Ever After Yes I love you Till we're happy Ever After

She knows everything about me Black nights, promises, and voodoo She sees things that my eyes can’t see The rafters in the lonely house of my truth But you can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now Yeah you can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now I’m the nervous wrist of anger She’s the confidant of danger Can’t help wonder what she’s doing Spellbound suitors of her choosing You can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now You can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now You can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now Yeah you can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now Don’t come back now I’ll be sleeping In the shadow I’ll be dreaming Yeah you can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now Yeah you can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now You can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now You can keep on dreamin’ She’s everybody’s princess now She’s everybody’s princess now She’s everybody’s princess now She’s everybody’s princess now

Betrayed 02:47
Once you were a friend of mine And then you went and crossed the line Now inside the walls are white My vision’s red most every night ‘Cause when I held your love so close You made yourself into a ghost Haunting down the bank roll aisle Sniffing out a little smile And everything you ever said to me Might as well have just been make believe It doesn’t matter if you disagree You know I loved you just to be Betrayed! Betrayed! So flip a coin and you decide: Heads we live, or tails we die The thorny roses that you sew Are telling me it’s time to go ‘Cause once you were my on’n’on But now your love is dead and gone In the court the jester weeps And wonders how it is you sleep And everything you ever said to me Might as well have just been make believe It doesn’t matter if you disagree You know I loved you just to be Betrayed! Betrayed! Once you were a friend of mine Once you were a friend of mine Once you were a friend of mine Once you were a friend of mine Once you were a friend of mine Once you were a friend of mine

Step right up and take your chances Wheels were made to spin (I've) Seen a lot of losers lately Girl, you're bound to win (And) If you wanted me unhappy Girl, be satisfied 'Cause you can bet on all the nights I laid awake and cried Over you Such a sucker for your lies It's true But you know Stupid games win stupid prizes Yeah You've been playing fast and loose With a deck of bleeding hearts Hangin' 'round a hand of jokers Tear your king apart (And) If you wanted me unhappy Girl, be satisfied 'Cause you can bet on all the nights I laid awake and cried Over you Such a sucker for your lies It's true But you know Stupid games win stupid prizes Yeah

Milk & Honey 02:15
She said "I've got a lot to offer a man" Well, honey, go find him "A woman has options, don't you understand?" Well, honey, go find them Sail off on the Western wind In a carriage for two Paint me pretty postcards, babe From your land of Milk & Honey I once thought she would forever stay Forever was yesterday A jester in her court I play Forever in yesterday High up in a fairy tale You're too good to be true Read me my favorite story, babe 'Bout your land of Milk & Honey (Too good to be true) (Too good to be true) (Too good to be true) (Nice to meet you, now) High up in a fairy tale You're too good to be true Tell me my favorite story, babe 'Bout your land of Milk & Honey

Something happened here When you were just a kid Now it's happening Like clockwork all again Try as you might The wounds all open wide Now you're running But there's nowhere left to hide

If you could change the world With a wave of your hand Would you do it baby And tell them it was my command? Would you take the light And make love black as night? You could do it, baby If they told you it’s all alright Hang me out to dry Take it out on me You can tell all your friends I’ll be whoever you need Girl, you know it Feels good to be a supervillain If you know what I mean Yeah, you know it Feels good to be your supervillain I’m the baddest I’ve ever been You know it! Hang me out to dry, well Take it out on me You can tell all your friends, Your silly friends That it was me, and only me Girl, you know it Feels good to be a supervillain If you know what I mean Yeah, you know it Feels great to be your supervillain I’m the baddest I’ve ever been You know it You know it Yeah, you know it Yeah, you know it Feels good to be a supervillain If you know what I mean Yeah, you know it Feels great to be your supervillain I’m the baddest I’ve ever been You know it! You know it! Yeah, you know it! You know it! You know it!

Wishmaster 05:26
What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command Slowly, slowly Untangled up in you Falling, calling A feeling both familiar and so new Slowly, slowly My haunted house is blue The maze creeps As I sleep Lost inside the many folds of you Stay with me a while Share a drink and then a smile Won't you say hello? Hello What do you want it to be? What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command So tell me, tell me Does my love hold the key? A door to you You'd let me through But on the other side A fantasy So tell me is it true? 'Cause I could never do a thing Like that to you (To you) To you And in spite of intuition I'd ignore my superstition If you'd say hello (Hello) Well, hello What do you want it to be? What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command Deep Deep in a song That I write alone With no one home I placed your love In that deep, dark hole To sleep Forevermore What do you want it to be? What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command What do you want it to be? Your wish is my command (Dead ends are for haunted houses) (Dead ends are for haunted houses) (Dead ends are for haunted houses) (Dead ends are for haunted houses) (Dead ends are for haunted house...) (Dead ends are for haunted...) (Dead ends are for haunted houses) (And you) (And you) Your wish is my command

Call My Name 04:36
You can call my name Call my name Oh She don't love you anymore She just walked right out that door Oh Oh And it does your poor head in When she says "let's try again" Oh Oh Did she have to be so mean? All her words are just a dream Oh Oh (And) you'd do anything to feel Something other than what's real Oh (And) If you wanna be a lover For my life Better make it once Don't ever make it twice For your love I would've Swam the deep blue sea (But) now if someone else Would like the vacancy You can call my name You can call my name Oh Chasing pennies down the well Love will send you straight to Hell Oh Oh So pages turn, we start again And every story has an end Oh (And) If you wanna be a lover For my life Better make it once Don't ever make it twice For your love I would've Swam the deep blue sea (But) now if someone else Would like the vacancy You can call my name You can call my name Call my name! Call my name! You can call my name You can call my name Call my name! You can call my name You can call my name You can call my... Name You can call Call, call, call, call You can call my name

Take Me Down 03:27
Take me down To a place where our love had just begun You and I were runnin' rings around the sun Soft breeze blowing, spring was in the air I didn't know just where was I; I didn't care I didn't care I didn't care Take me down To a time when our love was all a-bloom We watched the stars dance to the humming of the moon We made slow love underneath the trees A lonesome bell swept all our troubles out to sea To the sea To the sea Take me down To a place far from the heartache of our June Where jasmine flowers offer up their sweet perfume Wafting cool and slow inside the summer breeze I watch you turn to smoke inside a distant dream In a dream In a dream

In my tangerine dream In my tangerine dream It was cold and it was dark I was alone There was a knocking at the door A ghost from years before So I threw the window wide And let it in And we stood there for a while I didn't know where to begin I was afraid We're all out of time We're towing the line We're taking on water I loosen my grip Go down with the ship See you at the bottom The bottom of the sea That's where I wanna be Just tell me I'm asleep In my tangerine dream In my tangerine dream We took a trip upon a ladder to the sky To a palace in my mind I go from time to time We spoke of love and light And watched the sparrow sing By the rolling hills of green I wanna be inside that dream With you again But I'm floating away There's nothing to say There's nothing to be here The stars are all bright In strawberry skies And Cassiopeia Stay with me At the bottom of the sea Just tell me I'm asleep In my tangerine dream In my tangerine dream In my tangerine dream In my tangerine dream

And she wonders why marriage Didn't work out for her Cigarette singin' "Man what a crazy world" Oh, and I wonder why marriage Didn't work out for me In a horse-drawn carriage I sing for the birds and bees And me And me And me
15.
I've been a-wanderin' around (And) I've been so sick of this town Another day I wake Another day I see Throwing the rocks in front of me (And) I've been so sick of this town 'Cause I want you so bad But you make me so sad (And) I can't believe that this is real When you know how I feel (Is that the way) That you want it? (Is that the way) That you want it? ('Cause I can't believe) To be honest (That that's the way) That you want it now Memories are comin' 'round And every day I'm fallin' down Every day I see you walk away Into the crowd Silence mocks me like a clown Who's entertained to watch me drown Fills balloons with all the air Inside my gasping sounds And every day I see your face upon the wall I take it down and hold it in my arms It does nothing at all And every day I wonder How it's gonna be And who I'm gonna see When it's only me, oh I want you so bad But you make me so sad I can't believe that this is real When you know how I feel (Is that the way) ...that you want it? (Is that the way) That you want it? ('Cause I can't believe) To be honest (That that's the way) That you want it now (The way) (The way) (The way) (The way) (The way) (The way) (The way) (The way) That you want it now That you want it ...want it?! Now... Now? Now!
