[Verse 1]
I wake up in the morning in my own bed
I stretch out I stand up the blood rushes to my head
I'm comfortable being alone
I take up space, fill every drawer
How beautiful it is to feel free.
I'm learning a bit more everyday
About myself and my foolish ways
But, hey, I couldn't ask for anything better.
Someday I hope to be
with somebody who believes in me
but first, I got to believe in me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now and then you come across my mind
I'm not trying to get all sentimental.
I'm just wondering when and where's the time
That I'll find somebody who's gentle.
[Chorus]
And maybe you'll find somebody new
I can't blame you
for doin' what you do.
And maybe I'll find somebody right
Who's just my type
I'll keep on pushing through
And you keep doin' what you do.
[Verse 2]
I come home in the evening from a long day
I sit down, ain't nobody gettin' in my way.
I'm comfortable with who I am
don't need no woman need no man
to make me feel like I'm free.
I'm learning a bit more everyday
about myself and my foolish ways
but, hey, I couldn't ask for anything better.
And everyday I'm trying to be
Somebody who believes in me
'Cause baby, I've got to be me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now and then you come across my mind
I'm not trying to get all sentimental.
I'm just wondering when and where's the time
That I'll find somebody who's gentle.
[Chorus]
And maybe you'll find somebody new
I can't blame you
for doin' what you do.
And maybe I'll find somebody right
Who's just my type
I'll keep on pushing through
And you keep doin' what you do.
[Interlude into Tamia's "So into You]
I think you're truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's get together you and me boy
There's no one like you around.
'Cause I really like what you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I am so into you
I really like what you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I am so into you
I really like what you've done to me
I can't really explain it
And you'll keep doin' what you do.

Sleeping Alone

[Chorus]
Right now you're sleeping with her,
but I am wearing your shirt.
You should be sleeping with me,
but I'm alone in these sheets.
[Verse]
It's been a while since we've
been together at an intimate capacity.
I know it's taken so long
to figure out how to right all your wrongs.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been feeling down
you're not around
and I feel blue
sleeping without you.
[Chorus]
Right now you're sleeping with her,
but I am wearing your shirt.
You should be sleeping with me,
but I'm alone in these sheets.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been feeling down
you're not around
and I feel blue
sleeping without you.
[Outro]
We should be sleeping...
I should be sleeping...
Right you're sleeping...
Right now I'm dreamin...
We should be sleeping...
I should be sleeping...
Right now I'm dreamin...
I should be sleeping alone.

Bittersweet

[Verse 1]
Bitter will I become?
When I am older and life is coming undone?
Lonely, will I be?
In the same room as my honey?
[Chorus]
What will I be
when I'm 63?
What will I be
oh when I can no longer
[Verse 2]
See so clear or hear so well
and I am breathing through lungs that can't quite yell
like they used to back in the day
when I was singing those songs
up on that stage
[Chorus]
What will I be
when I'm 63?
What will I be
oh when I can no longer sleep?
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
What will I be
when I'm 63?
What will I be
oh when I can no longer
[Verse 3]
Keep quiet to myself
and I am losing my mind, losing my health.
When all is said and done
can I say that I lived a life of love?
[Chorus]
What will I be
when I'm 63?
What will I be
oh will I be happy?

Passport Check

[Verse 1]
Give me a few of your dollars
if you have some to spare.
I'll pack my bags, grab my passport
and I'll go anywhere.
No it's not what you think,
it's what you do,
and we've got so much time
that we don't want to lose.
So get movin' gotta catch that flight,
'cause we'll be gone tonight.
[Chorus]
I always wondered when I'd finally cross the sea.
And now it's happened and my life's become a dream.
When I fly way up high, dancing through these velvet skies
Gotta get out there and see the world
While it still turns
[Verse 2]
Give me a million reasons
well I only need one
to play a little rock music
while we're chasing the sun.
No it's not what you say
it's how you say it.
I don't know how else I can explain it.
Get movin' gotta catch that train,
'cause we'll be gone today.
[Chorus]
I always wondered when I'd finally cross the sea.
And now it's happened and my life's become a dream.
When I fly way up high, dancing through these velvet skies
Gotta get out there and see the world
While it still turns
[Verse]
Give me a few of your dollars
if you have some to spare.
I'll pack my bags, grab my passport
and I'll go anywhere.
No it's not what you think,
it's how you love,
we've gotta get movin'
give thanks from above.
So get movin' gotta catch that flight,
'cause we'll be gone tonight.
