Six or seven years since I fell in love with you
Laughter and the tears, we’ve seen it all through
You used to tell me that you loved me every day
But nowadays when you come home, you ain’t got much to say, oh!
And all these things that I do for you
Does it mean a thing to you?
What if I take my love from you
Then baby whatchya gonna do?
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
I can’t afford to lose
Got nowhere to run, we made a home together
When my will is gone, I need you to make me feel better
Don’t need no other man, I want you to be my rock
And I hate to break it to ya but ya gotta know they’re lined up ‘round the block, oh!
And all these things that I do for you
Does it mean a thing to you?
What if I take my love from you
Then baby whatchya gonna do?
Jeremy:
You keep telling me, all these things that I gotta do
Why don't you just give yourself to me?
Laura:
Well baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing… I can’t afford to lose.
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
Don’t Stop Loving Me
Baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a thing, baby that’s a
I can’t afford to lose

Hey there, thanks for picking up
Didn't know if you'd be home
But I'm feeling blue, and I thought of you
So I picked up the phone
Are you alone?
I got dumped
Let's just cut to the chase
I'm trying to hang on to my face
And at night
I've been staying awake in the wings at Chateau number 9
That's a wine
But don't worry my friend
For you I'll be perfectly fine
I stand by
Though the rumours abound
You're only as drunk as you sound
Oh
Why don't we get married?
Sorry I don't know what I'm saying
Tell me about your life
How is your wife?
Oh she's gone?
Well that's good news for me
But I'm sorry that must have been hard
Was she pretty?
Is she younger than me?
I'm so tired of this whole fucking scene
How to begin?
I'm so tired of dragging around this old bag of skin
Please excuse me
I digress
He was cheating on me for more than 3 years
Sacrifice
After sacrifice I made for him
I was trying to be nice
Oh
Why don't we get married?
I'm not joking
My sense of humour is quite different than it was
But seriously man
The moment I laid eyes on you in my body I knew
Oh fuck me
It's a problem when you have a boyfriend and live overseas
But that's done now
Is it late where you are?
Cuz here it's only 3
And if you gave me the go
I would jump in the ocean and swim to you so faithfully
And I'll be there by morning
So come with a towel and coffee
It's you that I've chosen
Cuz when my tits are frozen
I think that you'd actually be there for me
Oh
Why don't we get married?
How long have we been talking?
I don't have long distance

We're in Love

I respect her
And she respects herself
You don't have to be worried 'bout us
She respects me
And I respect myself
Anyone could have told you
We're in Love
She ordered the all-day breakfast for dinner
She ate with her hands
And I dropped all my plans
She took me out back to show me a flower
It grew through the sidewalk
I think she just wanted to talk
She said you and me
Got something unspoken
Like the weed that comes
The concrete gets broken
So what do you say
To an eternal love
I respect her
And she respects herself
You don't have to be worried 'bout us
She respects me
And I respect myself
Anyone could have told you
We're in Love
I'm on the phone to the hospital pastor
She's out with a friend for a dress
On Queen Street West
He's saying we're one day closer to rapture
Well I say, how can I sin
When life has yet to begin?
Oh, the moon and tide
Will never be together
But she and I
We got something better
So how can I wait
For an eternal love
I respect her
And she respects herself
You don't have to be worried 'bout us
She respects me
And I respect myself
Anyone could have told you
We're in Love

Change me
Give me apathy
I came here to love
Came here to love you like no one
Ever did
Hang me
Hang me out to dry
I came here to love
Came here to love you in return
Doves sit on my window like a grave
Singing out
Singing out
If it ain't worth saying
Then it ain't worth feeling
But I'm covered in you
And I'm barely breathing
And if I see you coming
Then I best be leaving
Cuz you're still in the air
And I'm barely breathing
You said
There is nothing here
To talk about
So talk about it to yourself
Do you
Hear the train coming
That mows you down
Mows you down into the ground
Now I always keep a packed bag
In my heart
In my heart
If it ain't worth saying
Then it ain't worth feeling
But I'm covered in you
And I'm barely breathing
And if I see you coming
Then I best be leaving
Cuz you're still in the air
And I'm barely breathing
Can't shake this feeling
And it won't be leaving
Cuz you're still in the air
And I'm barely breathing
And I won't be seeing
What I don't believe it
Cuz I'm still lost in you
And I'm barely breathing
