Verse
I hope it’s not too late to call you
I didn’t mean to wait so long
I wish that I was lying there by your side
Everything I ever said was all true
I never meant to do you wrong
I’m sorry that you’re so unsatisfied
Chorus
You say you want more than I’ve given you
I’m breaking inside
Time will tell what I can only try
You say there’s so much that you want to do
Why did you lie
Time will tell what I can only try
Verse
I guess we’ve got nothing left to talk through
I should have known it all along
We never put our love before our pride
Walking out is all you really want to do
When you feel like you don’t belong
I guess I’ll do what ever you decide
Chorus
Bridge
Only time will tell
Only time will tell what we see
You got me
And I’m starting to think we should stop
Chorus
Play

Verse
You see the world expanding when you’re younger
I don’t see that now
As you age you start to feel a hunger
It tries to bring you down
Love and greed the things you need or wanted
It’s hard to figure out
Until it’s clear your teased or haunted
Without a doubt
Chorus
When it’s all right I don’t want to say
When it’s all night I just want to stay
When it’s all fun I just want to play
I just want to play the game
Verse
Sometimes the sun and moon just seem to anchor
The planets all align
You feel the sense of harmony you’re thankful
Everything is fine
Nothing ever stays the way you want it
Everybody knows
Death will come to even those who taunt it
Everybody goes
Bridge
I know that time will pass me by
While sitting still I watch it fly
That’s why I always try and make
It worth each breath I take
Maybe I'm Amazed
Written by Paul McCartney

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you
Chorus
Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand
Chorus
Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
You right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you
Chorus
Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand
I'll Know

When you want me
When you need me
When you finally believe me
I’ll know it’s right
When I hold you
When I please you
When you won’t let me release you
I’ll know it’s right
Bridge
You never know what you can live without
Until you di and then there is no doubt
In the evening
And when I rise
When I look into your eyes
I know it’s right
Once Again
Written by A.J. Croce

Won’t you take me back
I can’t live without you by my side
If there’s something that I lack
I can change what ever you decide
Chorus
Once again I find that I can’t sleep
Once again I want what I can’t keep
Won’t you please slow down I’m a step behind
You were out of sight but not out of mind
Have I stepped across an invisible line
If you don’t want to speak then just give me a sign
Remember how you treated me back when
Won’t you do it once again
Like the train that jumped the rail
Or the ship that’s lost at sea
I was so afraid to fail
Not to bring you back to me
Bridge
It won’t take long to know
If you should go or stay
Time is moving slow
Minutes taking hours and hours taking days
When I'm Gone
Written by A.J. Croce

It’s peculiar she wants me by her side
I’m like her cyanide she only really wants me when I’m gone
When I’m near her she cuts me like a knife
I wish for ten to life because she only wants me when I’m gone
Chorus
When I’m gone
She don’t need somebody else
When I’m gone
She can’t take being by herself
Complicated I’m just her ball and chain
It’s almost inhumane she only wants me when I’m gone
She’s a riddle that I can’t figure out
At least there is no doubt she only really wants when I’m gone
Bridge
It’s a little bit confusing a little bit amusing
But I just can’t walk out that door
I forget what life was like before
I'm With You

There’s a parallel line in my parallel life
Got a parallel girl who’s my parallel wife
She’s so good I love her twice
Don’t need a double entendre to break the ice
Chorus
Any destination that you’re going to
Anything you could want I could do
You never have to worry you’ll make it through
Baby cause I’m with you
I can balance my life while I balance my time
I’m a balancing fool on a bottle of wine
I’m so even I’m two lines
In a parallel world I’m a parallel sign
Bridge
I’m with you
You never have to worry you’ll make it through
Baby cause I’m with you
All About You

Verse
What do you see when you’re looking at me
I can’t tell by the look in your eye
The devil inside has something to hide
It’s in your mind but so hard to find
Chorus
All about you - I’ll never know
All about you - so little you show
You could be mine – if only I knew
All about you
Verse
So little we learn so easy we burn
I’m lighting a fire to fan your desire
Maybe in time with reason or rhyme
You’ll let me in how long has it been
Chorus
Bridge
I wish that I could figure out exactly what you wanted me to say
If I could get inside your head then I would know if I should go or stay
Chorus
I Should Have Known
Written by A.J. Croce

The love that we had for good or for bad
Was as tall as the Eiffel Tower
The weather inside left nowhere to hide
We fell like a thunder shower
Chorus
These are the things
I should have known
After all I’m a full man
Some of the seeds that I had sown
Have left me right here where I am
These are the things I should have known
When push came to shove we fell out of love
Not out of understanding
The question of truth we blame it on youth
It can be so demanding
Bridge
Looking for serenity
Never seem to get any
Wish we could have gotten it right
Looking for a hand to hold
Praying for a heart of gold
I really just need you tonight
All I Need

Verse
Nothing is ever just what it seems
You’re always sleepwalking out of my dreams
Now that it’s over we couldn’t be closer
You’ve given me something that won’t go away
What more can I say
Chorus
All I have is all I need
Verse
I can’t hold onto what’s here when I’m gone
That’s what I thought but maybe I’m wrong
Love can be simple love can be great
You’ve given me something that won’t go away
Why don’t you stay
Chorus
Bridge
Still I find I can’t embrace
The thing that’s right before my face
There’s nothing we can do or say
I guess it’s always been that way
One And Only

Sunshine moonshine either one will do fine
I need a little time to get what’s all mine
Just you wait and see
Suitcase new place everyday a new race
Ain’t it a waste I’m gonna die and leave no trace
That don’t bother me
Chorus
I could be your one and only
Come on over when you get lonely
I could be your one and only man
Bridge
When I talk to you I mumble
When I walk to you I stumble
When you call me I’m humble
When you don’t I crumble
Until We Meet Again
Written by A.J. Croce

The straight line
That you walked has turned away
The night is day
The path I stray
Until we meet again
The porch light
That you lit has burned and gone
Your marble fawn will carry on
Until we meet again
Chorus
Until we meet again
I’ll be waiting for you
Until we meet again
The stars shine
Up above and down below
The embers glow
A cosmic show
Until we meet again
Chorus
Bridge
The truth that lies before my eyes
I see too late and so I wait
