ALBUM: Unusually Unusual
"Unusually Unusual"
Tease
She's unusually unusual
1st Verse
She introduced herself as Amy, said 'call me Caroline for short'
She said 'I just moved in three doors down so I wouldn't be the girl next door'
And I knew the shoes she wasn't wearin' 'a fit her just right
And she said 'Hey man, did you know
Somebody left the grass out in the yard all night'
Chorus
She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable, yes she is
She's so different, and that's what's wonderful, whoa whoa yeah
She's unusually unusual
And that's beautiful to me (oh oh)
(Oh, that's good enough for me)
2nd Verse
She had a tattoo 'bove her ankle of a Trident submarine
She said it symbolizes awesome powers
Hidden deep within our dreams
And her diamond eyes, differing in color
Held me captive in their light
And she said 'Hey man, did you know we used to be brothers
Yeah, in some past life'
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
Some people may think she's strange
A different cup 'a tea
But she just does it for me
(Chorus Out)
"Not A Day Goes By"
1st Verse
Got a picture of you I carry in my heart
Close my eyes to see it when the world gets dark
Got a mem'ry of you I carry in my soul
I wrap it close around me when the nights get cold
And if you asked me how I'm doin' I'd say just fine
But the truth is, baby, if you could read my mind
Chorus
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you
After all this time, you're still with me, it's true (oh)
Somehow you remain locked so deep inside
Baby, baby, oh baby, not a day goes by
2nd Verse
I still wait for the phone in the middle of the night
Thinking you might call me if your dreams don't turn out right
And it still amazes me that I lie here in the dark
Wishin' you were next to me with your head against my heart
If you asked me how I'm doin' I'd say just fine
But the truth is, baby, if you could read my mind
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
Minutes turn to hours and the hours to days
Seems it's been forever that I've felt this way
(Repeat Chorus)
That I don't think of you
"I'm Already There"
1st Verse
He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say 'I love you' one more time
But when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughin' in the background
(He) had to wipe away a tear from his eye
1st Bridge
A little voice came on the phone
Said 'Daddy, when you comin' home?'
He said the first thing that came to his mind
1st Chorus
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh, I'm already there
2nd Verse
She got back on the phone
Said "I really miss you, darlin'
Don't worry about the kids, they'll be alright
I wish I was in your arms
Lyin' right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
2nd Bridge
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes
2nd Chorus
I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shinin' down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'til the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh, I'm already there
3rd Bridge
'We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are'
Tag Chorus
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'til the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh, I'm already there
Oh, I'm already there
"Amazed"
1st Verse
Every time our eyes meet
This feelin' inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby, when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams
Chorus
I don't know how you do what you do
(Every little thing that you do)
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps gettin' better
I want to spend the rest of my life
With you by my side for ever and ever
Every little thing that you do
(Oh, every little thing that you do)
Baby, I'm amazed by you
2nd Verse
The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby, you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Though it feels like the first time, every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus)
"What About Now"
1st Verse
The sign in the window said 'For Sale Or Trade'
On the last remainin' dinosaur Detroit made
Seven hundred dollars was a heck of a deal
For a four hundred horsepower jukebox on wheels
And that road rolls out like a welcome mat
I don't know where it goes, but it beats where we're at
We always said someday somehow
We're gonna get away, gonna blow this town
Chorus
What about now
How 'bout tonight
Baby, for once let's don't think twice
Let's take that spin that never ends
That we've been talkin' about
What about now
Why should we wait
We can chase these dreams down the Interstate
And be long gone 'fore the world moves on
And makes another route
What about now
2nd Verse
We've been puttin' this off, baby, long enough
Just give me the word, and we'll be kickin' up dust
We both know it's just a matter of time
'Til our hearts start racin' for that county line
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
We could hang around this town forever, makin' plans
But there won't ever be a better time to take this chance
(Repeat Chorus)
What about now
"Don't Let's Talk About Lisa"
Chorus
(But) Don't let's talk about Lisa
Don't let's even start (no, no)
Let's leave Lisa out of this one
(Don't let's talk about Lisa, please sir)
Lisa broke my heart
1st Verse
Gwendolyn was splendid
But her tendency to spendin'
Spun a little out of control
Two nights on the town
And my poor bank account
Was crawlin' around on the floor
And pretty young Alicia
She could take a piece of your heart
And lead you to the height
Lucy, Melinda, Loretta, and Lucinda
We can go on all night
(Repeat Chorus)
2nd Verse
Priscilla was a killer
Meaner than Godzilla
But oh, what a pretty girl
And Dawn in the dawn with the pom poms on
She could twirl like a tilt-a-whirl
There's wonderful women all over the world
I've said it again and again
But she whose name must not be spoken
Has it all over all of them, so
(Repeat Chorus)
Rap
You can talk about the weather, cotton or leather
And do you think the Beatles should have really gotten back together
Talk about the truth, Mantle or Ruth
Fabio, DiMaggio, or John Wilkes Booth
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
Oh, Lisa, she's off limits, man
Lisa broke my heart, oh
Spoken
That'll leave a mark
Chant
Lisa, Lisa, Lisa broke my heart
Rap over Chant
You can talk about Hanson, Marilyn Manson
And do you think they'll ever have a show down in Branson
Talk about desire, Sosa or McGwire
Is we in the fry, man, or is we in the fire
Talk about what's real, and what you really feel
And how's about those miniskirts on Ally McBeal
Talk about the X-Files, macaroons and mistrials
And did you ever snag your jacket pocket on a turnstile, oh yeah
"All The Way"
1st Verse
Hey, we're walkin'
Through this together
And I'm holdin' on to you
Nothing can separate
This little twist of fate
You're the one my heart belongs to
Nothin's quite as sweet as the journey
So let's go around the world
Takin' in everything
No matter what life brings
We're gonna be chasin' forever
Chorus
All the way to the end
All my life and back again
Every day I'll be here
Lovin' you, oh, through the years
And it's true
There's so much freedom in knowin'
How sure we are that we're goin'
All the way
2nd Verse
People ask me
'Think y'all can make it?'
And I tell them honestly
This ain't no fleetin' thing
We're not imagining
This is it
We know it's meant to be
'Cause I love you
Love you completely
I've never felt like this
I don't want nothin' but
Something that's passionate
'Cause the only way I know how to love is
(Repeat Chorus)
All the way
There's so much freedom in knowin'
How sure we are that we're goin'
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
"Smile"
1st Verse
I still remember the night we met
You said you loved my smile
But your love for me was like a summer breeze
Oh, it lasted for a while
I could hold on a little tighter, I know
But when you love someone
You gotta let 'em go, so
Chorus
I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
(So you can find the courage)
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
(Laugh, so you won't see me hurtin')
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile
2nd Verse
Kiss me once for 'em good times, baby
Kiss me twice for goodbye
You can't help how you don't feel
And it doesn't matter why
Give me a chance to bow out gracefully
'Cause that's how I want you to remember me
(Repeat Chorus Twice)
"Everything's Changed"
1st Verse
Funny you should show up
After all of these years
Yeah, things shore have changed around here
Seen a lot a strangers since they
Put that Interstate through
No, this ain't the same town
That we once knew
Chorus
(Yeah) They put up a plant
Where we used to park
That ol' drive-in's a new Wal-Mart
The cafe is closed
Where our names were carved
On that corner booth
Yeah, everything's changed
Except for the way I feel about you
2nd Verse
That westbound Santa Fe
Don't stop here anymore
You were one of the last to get on board
The street that we grew up on
You wouldn't recognize
Girl, nothin's been the same
Since you said goodbye
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus)
Yeah, everything's changed
Except for the way I feel about you
