Big World 03:42
I’m always living in a fantasy I’m always living in my mind Imagining all I want to be Imagining it’s by design We’re hand to hand & now we’re eye to eye Lost within each other’s trance But that’s exactly where I wanna be But I know I haven’t got a chance It’s a big world Such a big world I can’t understand the man Going along Singing my song It’s got to be part of the plan Let go let go let go this fantasy Grab hold of what you got right now This life this life -- your reality Your dreams are not some sacred cow Smiling and nodding looking fully in But in my heart I’m far away But that’s exactly where I wanna be To keep this other life at bay Sometimes we want the things we can’t see Sometimes we want the things we can But baby never doubt me I have a plan – I have a plan

Enemy 03:19
I light the match and then I’ll walk away And let the fire burn Nothing to lose you know I didn’t come to play It’s not the life you have it’s the one you learn (earn) Every day in ways that are big and small You piece together life you know But when I catch you staring at me My other senses start to grow Am I the enemy Am I the enemy Ah ah ah ah ah? Like Delilah I will cut your hair And make your body weak Any resistance strip your essence bare Could be your losing streak There’s no one coming here to rescue you And set your body free But here’s a table I have set for two It’s time for me to feed (the need) OK babe I release you Why don’t you run away? It’s like I’m destined here just to teach you Why don’t you run away? Why don’t I want you to?

I can’t believe what you’re doing to me Do you want me? Do you want this…at all? You were supposed to be a wave upon the ocean You were meant to be a face among the crowd Now I am feeling overwhelmed by my emotion Guess that’s the price I pay for living out loud

Talk to Me 03:15
I see you sittin’ right there It’s like you’re stuck to your chair It’s like you don’t even see me Like you’re unaware Honey that isn’t fair Now I’m not tryin’ to win But I’m not tryin’ to lose Wish I could go over there and slip inside of your shoes And honey I’d make a move I’m looking at ya So don’t be shy Come over here and baby say hi Because talk becomes touch And touch turns to rub And rub turns to lust And lust turns to love (repeat) Talk to me Uh baby baby baby talk to me Cause if you talk to me baby then we won’t be just talking for long And now you’re looking my way Don’t you got something to say? I’m only getting older here You’re taking all day Maybe you’ll make a play? Don’t get too heavy man Don’t try and overthink Wish I could go over there And let our energy sync And you can buy me a drink I’m winking at ya So have no fear Come over here I’ll buy you a beer

Love 04:24
I’ve heard your mantra of mishaps Your litany of letdowns are bringing me to the ground You run off plenty with your tale of woe Well listen honey there’s something that you gotta know Did somebody hurt you beyond repair? Did somebody tell you that love’s always fair? Did somebody lie and tell you it always works out? Listen honey – here’s what it’s really about: (Love lifts you up) you drink out of the cup (Love gets you high) you feel like you can fly (Love lets you down) you feel like you could drown But it’s alright you still got enough you still got yourself I know you’re feeling broken and bruised I know you’re feeling lost and confused But no one got nowhere just sitting at home Pick yourself up and go it along Well listen honey here’s what it’s really about. Strung up on a wire Scared ‘cause it’s so high Well don't you worry baby Cause here’s the thing - you've grown some wings And baby you can fly

Lost 03:26
Nobody told me about the way you move Moved all around me Like something strange and new Now I am moving in – to a brand new place I’ve lost my footing I’m stepping into space Messing my mind up messing my mind up I’m a little lost (repeat) Nobody told me about the way you move Moved all around me Like something strange and new Now I’m upending all that I’ve put into place I’m on rocket exploding into space
7.
The demographics of love Are sent from above Straight to your heart so you can start The old push and shove The numbers add up To fill your cup You don’t have to try – don’t lie When your number’s up In the Census of Love What love group are you a citizen of? You and Me Love Mathematically Collecting my debt Let’s place the bet Numbers are set – don’t let - Go what you may regret Statistics of fate Never run late We all have a thirst But we’re cursed Love’s the best & the worst If love is an art I think math plays a part But where do I start? Baby don’t break my heart. Chorus: You and Me Love Mathematically

Photograph 04:01
You are the moon You rise and shine and then You leave us much too soon You are the sun You rise and shine and light The world for everyone Picturing you I close my eyes and that is all I got to do You outta know Thoughts of you they follow me where I go You are my photograph You make me smile make me laugh You are my photograph Here too soon and gone too fast You are the light Encompassing and baby I feel your might You are the dark Surrounding me but baby And honey I still feel the spark

Let me show you how to kill me First you gotta close the door And sit down on the bed It’s time for me to explore Move in really slow Whisper in my ear Givin’ shivers of delight Mixed with just little fear That’s how you kill me everytime Don’t bite (hard) Love is the perfect crime (2X) Now move closer to my face And stare deep into my eyes Umm pull those lips right in I’ll try them on for size Fingers movin’ on their own A little puppet play Baby I’m caught inside your web My brain’s got nothing left to say Chorus: That’s how you kill me every time Don’t bite (hard) Love’s the perfect crime (2X) Hands are on my hips so low Seeking while our lips collide Exploring me so very slow Sensations like I’ve never known Push me till I can’t take no more Till I’m about to die Then tease me just a little more Till tears roll out my eyes Chorus: That’s how you kill me every time Don’t bite (hard) Love is the perfect crime (2X) This is risky - You are tricky I get twisted - can’t resist it That’s how to kill me every time - Don’t bite
