Riptide 03:55
I was scared of dentists and the dark I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations Oh, all my friends are turning green You're the magician's assistant in their dreams Oh, and they come unstuck Lady, running down to the riptide Taken away to the dark side I wanna be your left hand man I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my throat because You're gonna sing the words wrong There's this movie that I think you'll like This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City This cowboy's running from himself And she's been living on the highest shelf Oh, and they come unstuck Lady, running down to the riptide Taken away to the dark side I wanna be your left hand man I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my throat because You're gonna sing the words wrong I just wanna, I just wanna know If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay I just gotta, I just gotta know I can't have it, I can't have it any other way I swear she's destined for the screen Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh Lady, running down to the riptide Taken away to the dark side I wanna be your left hand man I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my throat because You're gonna sing the words wrong Oh lady, running down to the riptide Taken away to the dark side I wanna be your left hand man I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my throat because You're gonna sing the words wrong Oh lady, running down to the riptide Taken away to the dark side I wanna be your left hand man I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my throat because You're gonna sing the words wrong I got a lump in my throat because you're gonna sing the words wrong

I'm genuinely sorry that I missed your party You should try holding all the guilt I still carry Is it any wonder that I say I'm burned out? When you say you're bummed out. 'Cause I missed your party Bourbon won't kill it, so I'll just have to will it I won't drink the Kool-Aid, try not to be afraid You say you can see all the goodness inside me, dear me Say that you want me, for all that I can be I listen to Billy Joel I watch Flashdance again I'm going to get through Walt Whitman I'm going to be in bed by ten The Roller Girls are rolling and the rocking boys are rocking Am I just holding onto memories golden? I could go out dancing to feel bodies close to my skin I'd better stay in to face the trouble we are in I listen to Billy Joel I watch Flashdance again I'm going to get through Walt Whitman I'm going to be in bed by ten I'm going to be in bed by ten I listen to Billy Joel I watch Flashdance again I'm going to get through Walt Whitman I'm going to be in bed by ten I'm going to be in bed by ten These days I'm well travelled You can watch me unravel I'm genuinely sorry that I missed your party

Moon Song 02:45
I'm lying on the moon My dear, I'll be there soon It's a quiet and starry place Time's we're swallowed up In space we're here a million miles away There's things I wish I knew There's no thing I'd keep from you It's a dark and shiny place But with you my dear I'm safe and we're a million miles away We’re lying on the moon It’s a perfect afternoon Your shadow follows me all day Making sure that I'm Okay and we’re a million miles away

I quit my dreaming the moment that I found you I started dancing just to be around you Here's to thinking that it all meant so much more I kept my mouth shut and opened up the door I wanted nothing but for this to be the end For this to never be a tied and empty hand If all the trouble in my heart would only mend I lost my dream I lost my reason all again It's not just me for you, I have to look out too I have to save my life I need some peace of mind I am the only one now I am the only one now I am the only one now You may not be around You may not be around You may not be around I am the only one now I am the only one now I am the only one now I am the only one now

He said let's get out of this town Drive out of the city Away from the crowds I thought heaven can't help me now Nothing lasts forever But this is gonna take me down He's so tall, and handsome as hell He's so bad but he does it so well I can see the end as it begins my one condition is Say you'll remember me Standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset babe Red lips and rosy cheeks Say you'll see me again even if it's just in your wildest dreams (Ah ah) Wildest dreams (Ah ah) I said no one has to know what we do His hands are in my hair, his clothes are in my room And his voice is a familiar sound, nothing lasts forever But this is getting good now He's so tall, and handsome as hell He's so bad but he does it so well And when we've had our very last kiss But my last request is Say you'll remember me Standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset babe Red lips and rosy cheeks Say you'll see me again even if it's just in your wildest dreams (Ah ah) (Ah ah) Wildest dreams (Ah ah) You see me in hindsight Tangled up with you all night Burn it down Some day when you leave me I bet these memories hunt you around You see me in hindsight Tangled up with you all night Burn it down (Burn it down) Some day when you leave me I bet these memories follow you around (Follow you around) Say you'll remember me Standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset babe Red lips and rosy cheeks Say you'll see me again even if it's just pretend Say you'll remember me Standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset babe Red lips and rosy cheeks Say you'll see me again even if it's just (Just pretend, just pretend) in your wildest dreams (Ah ah) In your wildest dreams (Ah ah) Even if it's just in your wildest dreams (Ah ah) In your wildest dreams (Ah ah)

West Coast 04:24
Down on the West Coast they got a sayin' "If you're not drinkin' then you're not playin'." But you've got the music, you've got the music In you, don't you? Down on the West Coast I get this feeling like It all could happen that's why I'm leaving You for the moment, you for the moment Boy Blue, yeah you You're flyin' high at push on, I'm feelin' hot to the touch You say you miss me, and I say I miss you so much But something keeps me really quiet, I'm alive I'm a lush Your love, your love, our love I can see my baby swingin' His Parliament's on fire and his hands are up On the balcony and I'm singing Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, I'm in love I can see my sweet boy swayin' He's crazy y Cubano como yo lala On the balcony and I'm saying Move baby, move baby, I'm in love I'm in love (I'm in love) I'm in love (I'm in love) Down on the West Coast, they got their icons Their silver starlets, their Queens of Saigon And you've got the music, you've got the music In you, don't you? Down on the West Coast, they love their movies Their golden gods and rock and roll groupies And you've got the music, you've got the music In you, don't you? You push it hard, I pull away, I'm feeling hotter than fire I guess that no one ever really made me feel that much higher Te deseo, cariño, boy, it's you I desire Your love, your love, our love I can see my baby swingin' His Parliament's on fire and his hands are up On the balcony and I'm singing Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, I'm in love I can see my sweet boy swayin' He's crazy y Cubano como yo lala On the balcony and I'm saying Move baby, move baby, I'm in love I can see my baby swingin' His Parliament's on fire and his hands are up On the balcony and I'm singing Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, I'm in love I can see my sweet boy swayin' He's crazy y Cubano como yo lala On the balcony and I'm saying Move baby, move baby, I'm in love I'm in love I'm in love
