Unfaithful 03:40
I wake up in the mornings Got this strange feeling that I can't deny This trust we built, it’s broken I feel like dying inside 'Cause you were loving him, oh yes, undressed, Got his hands all on your chest You're loving it Unfaithful While you were sleeping in, I'm wide-awake got me wondering Is he really just a friend? You were unfaithful Yes you were baby You were I used to savor the taste of your love What I gave you didn't please you, it was never enough I hope he gives you all you need But when he loves you and leaves you, don't come crying back to me 'Cause you were loving him, oh yes, undressed, Got his hands all on your chest You're loving it Unfaithful While you were sleeping in, I'm wide-awake got me wondering Is he really just a friend? You were unfaithful All we built, burn it down All we built, burn it down All we built, burn it down All we built, burn it down 'Cause you were loving him, oh yes, undressed, Got his hands all on your chest You're loving it Unfaithful While you were sleeping in, I'm wide-awake got me wondering Is he really just a friend? You were unfaithful You were, you were, unfaithful Burn it down, ah-uh-huh yeah Wide-awake, wide-awake, I’m wide-awake got me wondering Unfaithful Just a friend, is he just a friend, I don’t think so baby You were unfaithful.

The lights are low The night is coming to a close And I’ve got to go But I don’t want to leave now I don’t want to leave now Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, cause I’ll be gone A goodbye kiss Isn’t enough to sustain this waning bliss ‘Cause tomorrow its you I’ll miss And I don’t want to leave now I don’t want to leave now Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, cause I’ll be gone The night is young and so are we I’ll be your Adam if you be my Eve Nothing but love between these sheets So come on baby take a bite of that apple tree Oooooooooh, Oooooooh, Oooooooh The lights are low The night is coming to a close And I’ve got to go But I don’t want to leave now Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, when you see the sun Hold me tight to the morning light, cause I’ll be gone

Pressure 03:45
I’ve got a shelf full of participation trophies A closet worn by somebody else, text books that are getting lonely Will I ever be enough, Will I ever be enough, Will I ever be enough? Ah the pressure’s bringin me down Pressure separates the strong from the weak Pressure makes men rise up or fall to their knees Pressure I can feel it tryin’ a dig me six feet deep Pressure won’t you make a diamond out of me? And the nerves they come in waves Drowning out my thoughts until all I know is my heart rate, heart rate I got to rise up, I got to rise up, I got to rise up Before the pressure, before the pressure, before the pressure brings me down Pressure separates the strong from the weak Pressure makes men rise up or fall to their knees Pressure I can feel it tryin’ a dig me six feet deep Pressure won’t you make a diamond out of me? Is that the ceiling coming down or am I breaking through the roof now? Is that the ceiling coming down or am I breaking through the roof now? Is that the ceiling coming down or am I breaking through the roof now? Is that the ceiling coming down or am I breaking through the roof now? Pressure separates the strong from the weak Pressure makes men rise up or fall to their knees Pressure I can feel it tryin’ a dig me six feet deep Pressure won’t you make a diamond out of me?

The tide keeps on rolling The white rivers keep on flowing The sun it sets and the sun it rises I can see good love on my horizon I can see the freight train coming Carrying cargo of change Can’t ya hear the tracks? They’re hummin’ They’re calling your name ‘Cause I waited so long Lover, when you gonna come? I, I, I waited Lover, when you gonna come? Everywhere I go I see pairs of two now One red rose under one evergreen The picture of passion under the veil of eternity, I Can’t wait to sow this love I’mma reap I can see the freight train coming Carrying cargo of change Can’t ya hear the tracks? They’re hummin’ They’re calling your name ‘Cause I waited so long Lover, when you gonna come? I, I, I waited Lover, when you gonna come? ‘Cause I waited so long Lover, when you gonna come? I, I, I waited Lover, when you gonna come?

There’s shrapnel shredding through my head Scattered syllables on my mind’s battlefield dead This is the point of no return; this is civil war Jackhammer to concrete; my beating heart on our bedroom floor Where were you when I was crying? My soul searched but I couldn’t find ya And I reached out to try and save us But I’m left wondering how this all came crashing down I would’ve thought you’d come running by now Farther, we grow farther Farther, we grow farther Stolen covers you’re a silent thief Shivering feet remind me nightly of just how cold you can be The tentacles of our tangled sheets they drag me down The distance between us an ocean in which I drown And all I learned from you is this: Life’s a thriller and love’s a bitch And I reached out to try and save us But I’m left wondering how this all came crashing down I would’ve thought you’d come running by now Farther, we grow farther Farther, we grow farther And I reached out to try and save us But I’m left wondering how this all came crashing down I would’ve thought you’d come running by now Farther, we grow farther Farther, we grow farther

Sweet Thing 04:31
And I will stroll the merry way And jump the hedges first And I will drink the clear Clean water for to quench my thirst And I shall watch the ferry-boats And they'll get high On a bluer ocean Against tomorrow's sky And I shall never grow old again I will walk and talk In gardens all wet with rain Oh sweet thing, my sweet thing My, my, my, my, my sweet thing My sweet thing And I shall drive my chariot Down your streets and cry 'Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite And I don't know why' You shall take me strongly In your arms again And I will not remember That I even felt the pain. And I shall never grow old again I will walk and talk In gardens all wet with rain Oh sweet thing, my sweet thing My, my, my, my, my sweet thing My sweet thing And I shall raise my hand Into the night time sky And count the stars That's shining in your eye Just to dig it all an' not to wonder That's just fine And I won't be tempted to Read between the lines And I shall never grow old again I will walk and talk In gardens all wet with rain Oh sweet thing, my sweet thing My, my, my, my, my sweet thing My sweet thing
