lyrics

hey love i wrote this song
to find what you've known all along
to try and find myself again

and there's a giant part of me
that stands in the way of all i see
that piece is more than just a friend

so just take a look my dear
in your father's funhouse mirror
what i see is what you'll find

cuz in case you haven't noticed
you've nearly always been the focus
of my loving heart and mind


girl please come back home
to the place where i belong
and the time has come to show
that you were wrong

girl you know it's right
there's a thing called destiny
let's not waste another night
time to join in harmony


you say you love me, and i love you too
but there's a message that isn't getting through
we've blocked a connection that runs deep

but know a love that once was lost
can now be found, and at no cost
the price of our love, it isn't steep


human nature, what it was
i know it was more than that because
something special is more than just a friend

feelings once felt never go away
they just hide b'hind human jars of clay
let's plunder our rupees of love and win


girl please come back home
to the place where i belong
and the time has come to show
that you were wrong

girl you know it's right
there's a thing called destiny
let's not waste another night
time to join in harmony


you say you don't love me it's not how you feel
i say that's crazy talk, this feeling's real
cuz deep down in our hearts we both know it's true
and the one who needs help unlocking it is you
there's a reason why i wrote this song
and i lied, i've known who i am all along
it's to show you the future is comin' up fast
and there's no need to be constrained by the past


the pain we both put each other through
i wasn't killing me, i was killing you
our perfect little oasis, our paradise
was quickly shattered by the point of a knife
could barely see your face the day after i died
a parting kiss to hush my childish cries
and with that kiss my world came to an end
that's when i knew that you could never love me again!

TRY
JUST TRY
TO BELIEVE
COME ON AND TRY
YOU GOTTA TRY

and never means forever, that's a mighty long time
but you can never say never
always a chance no matter how improbable

so i'm giving you my all
and i'll be here when you call
standing on the wall, i'm feeling ten feet tall
and i want it all - and i want you

it's like a drug i can't quit i can't get enough
can't stop trying and i can't quite get what i need
but the sun is shining up around the bend
where the line gets blurred between lover and friend

(i cannot wait)
(to see the day)
(you say my name)
(and smile and wave)
so i take one more step take another breath
another day alive, another day towards death
but it's all worth it when i see you smile
it gets me by for a little while

(i've got to hide)
(can't say goodbye)
(it breaks my mind)
(i cannot find)
gotta try
gotta strive
gotta work
gotta live
gotta love
gotta hope
got to give and give it all
give it all until there's nothing left
and then dig deep down and give a little more of my soul

(let's make a date)
(let's stay up late)
(let's have some fun)
(let's mug a nun)
to the girl
who is worthy
of all my pain
she brings a sunny sky
when i'm filled with rain
do anything to make her happy
tell a joke just to see that beautiful smile

(she makes me smile)
(she makes me laugh)
(she makes me feel like i'm a man)
she's just a dream come true, that girl, she is you
you know i know you don't agree, whatever
you're being stubborn cuz i know that you care
just relax and sit back and before you know it soon you'll be there

(the future's now)
(don't ask me how)
(ask chairman mao)
(a flying cow)
you'll be there and i will be too
together united unstoppable fighting the new tomorrow
the one with the robots
evil zombie robots
sent by dr. clown
the dread pirate roberts won't let us down

(when will i see)
(what's yet to be)
(my dreams will come)
(my will be done)
see the ninjas watch them go
wait you can't cuz your eyes are much to slow
but we know that we're winning from the number of corpses
with ninjato wounds wrapped in kunai with chain

(i just can't wait)
(to see your face)
(and i just hope)
(you're smiling)
a brighter future is nigh once the flying nuns die
they're just getting in our way
and we'll stand and rejoice and sing in one voice
once captain ninja-pirate saves the day

(you smile)
(you smile)
(and you smile)
(still you smile)
and you'll smile
and i'll smile
becuase you smiled
and you're smile's super-cute
and we'll take all of the aborted mutant zombie chicken fetuses
and throw them into the hudson bay yeah

(i love you and)
(you love me we're)
(one big happy)
(family)
and our lives will be wonderful
everything joyful no pain or suffering
and this beautiful future could all be yours
if you just say one thing -

(so smile...)
just say you love me...
(and smile...)

(i! love!)
(you!)
