Except The Blue lyrics - Daniel Powter

You got my last five years In a cardboard box With a hallmark card saying you miss me lots Its true I pass the rows of the crows And they laugh it up But the punchline hurts When you pack enough Its true When I'm on my feet But its the same old street Cause its hard for me to finally To see the shades of what we used to be Now what the hell am I supposed to do I'm halve as good and half as bright as stars that shine on me tonight Id probably be sharing them with you Somehow all the colors left except the blue I break through the clouds On a big jet plane But every destination Still looks the same Without you (without you) Without you If only dedication helped Miss you less No matter what I take I just can't forget about you My world's degrade And I've lost my way Cause its hard for me to finally To see the shades of what we used to be Now what the hell am I supposed to do I'm halve as good and half as bright as stars that shine on me tonight Id probably be sharing them with you Somehow all the colors left except the blue My world's turn gray I just lost my way Cause its hard for me to finally To see the shades of what we used to be Now what the hell am I supposed to do I'm halve as good and half as bright as stars that shine on me tonight Id probably be sharing them with you Somehow all the colors left Somehow all the colors left Somehow all the colors left Except the blue

Birthday Suits lyrics - Daniel Powter

On my birthday On my birthday Today is my special day And it'd be great if we could go all the way What difference would it make To turn eighteen or eighty-eight? Gonna have fun with you anyway I can't deny, there's still an awkward kid inside Today's the day to come of age Let's roll with it and just enjoy the ride On my birthday, in my birthday suit I want to celebrate, who I really am with you On my birthday, in my birthday suit Come on, let's celebrate, just me and you Today is my special day You don't need to count the candles on my cake I'm not a jock, not a rock star Just a skinny guy from Vancouver who bangs piano when no ones around I can't deny, there's still an awkward kid inside Today's the day, to come of age Let's roll with it and just enjoy the ride On my birthday, in my birthday suit I want to celebrate, who I really am with you On my birthday, in my birthday suit Come on, let's celebrate, it's be just me and you Have I told you that you're beautiful with those freckles on your cheeks? Yah, your so called flaws, well they look perfect to me On my birthday, in our birthday suits, I want to celebrate, I wanna light it up with you On my birthday, in my birthday suit, I want to celebrate, who I really am with you On my birthday, in my birthday suit, Come on let's celebrate, just me and you Come on let's celebrate, just me and you Come on let's celebrate, just me and you

What I Meant To Say lyrics - Daniel Powter

Taxi's pulling up at the front door All I can do is look away The silence screaming out from the night before From everything that we didn't say We might fall apart We might come undone But there's something on the tip of my tongue I told you I would be okay I said I won't stand in your way But I should have said I love you I just want you to stay But that's what I meant to say We never said a word through the weekend Now Monday comes in like a storm Never put the words to the feelings So what this parody's for If you're not with me Won't know who to be Never thought that you'd really leave I told you I would be okay I said I won't stand in your way But I should have said I love you I just want you to stay That's what I meant to say That I want you Won't make it through this Tongue tied and twisted And close to alone I hope it's not too late To say what I meant to say I told you I would be alright I told myself the same old lies I should have held you closer I just need you to stay I told you I would be okay I said I won't stand in your way But I should have said I love you I just want you to stay That's what I meant to say That's what I meant to say That's what I meant to say That's what I meant to say That's what I meant

Tell Them Who You Are lyrics - Daniel Powter

You can say what you want You can say what you feel You hide in your mask But you know it's not real You can lock all the doors And pretend you're not home You can stand in the crowd But you still feel alone The invisible man Who told stars from afar Stand up and then tell them Who you are You can pray to your gods You can fall to your knees And when you look in the mirror Your body burns with disease You can gamble on faith You can blame who you blame You can run from yourself You can't run from the pain Now we all have a place And we're all falling stars Stand up and then tell me Who you are Please, for me Stand up and then tell them Who you are At the end of your rope When the sun's going down And there's nowhere to go And there's no one around We still have a place Cause we're all falling stars Stand up and then tell them Who you are

Best Of Me lyrics - Daniel Powter

I was made the wrong way Won't you do me the right way Where you gonna be tonight 'cause I won't stay too long Maybe you're the light for me When you talk to me it strikes me Won't somebody help me 'cause I don't feel too strong Was it something that I said Was it something that I did Or the combination of both that did me wrong You know I'm hoping you'll sing along Though it's not your favorite song Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say You know that some of us spin again When you do, you need a friend Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me And I hate the thought of finally being erased Baby that's the best of me Everything's behind you But the hope still stands beside you Living in every moment Have I wasted all your time Was there something that I said Was there something that I did Or the combination I broke that did me have You know I'm hoping you'll sing along Though it's not your favorite song Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say You know that some of us spin again When you do, you need a friend Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me And I hate the thought of finally being erased Baby that's the best of me Baby that's the best of me You know I'm hoping you'll sing along Though it's not your favorite song Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say You know that some of us spin again When you do, you need a friend Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me And I hate the thought of finally being erased Baby that's the best of me

Not Coming Back lyrics - Daniel Powter

I don't believe in any longer bus It got my motor wrong For more than tears she cry Then you know That it's much to much So walk from the sky Let it rain on me I got this sorrow fall down So we can wash be clean And you know That it was much to much Not coming back again No more advice from my so called friends And I am coming back no more Driving away You raise the real bill here That you fade away You start to deal this feel That you know Babe babe Come on I've been down With the love almost flown When I got backup I got nothing to show Show for you That it was much to much I'm not coming back again No more advice from my so called friends And I am coming back no more You fooled me for the last time I walked away For you to make up You might take more staring now It's telling me out from inside And you gotta know I'm not coming back again No more advice for so call friends And I'm not coming back any more I am coming back no more Babe, I was pouring around I won't be back to kiss you goodnight I won't be back and you don't feel right I should've known you make fool at me Now I was known to know I won't be back again I won't be back, babe, I won't be back I won't be back You don't feel right I should know you make fool at me Now I was known to know I won't be back again

Whole World Around lyrics - Daniel Powter

Life's been good, I can't complain so far Designer clothes, expensive caviar And gated homes to keep the wolves at bay Tinted glass to hide my guilt and shame Neon signs and vagrants at the door Broken values, needles, liquor stores And won't somebody help me to believe Help me to deny the things I see Now whatever comes your way Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose But when it all comes down you make it through [Chorus] You got the whole world around You got the whole world around Something tells me not to make a scene Open up yor heart and let me in I've traveled far enough to meet my own demise Seems like every one I know still wears the same disguise Take me, rape me, push me down As long as I'm understood Like the soldiers view from the bunkers to the towers on Park Avenue, yeah yeah yeah... Something tells me not to make a scene Open up yor heart and let me in [Chorus] You got the whole world around You got the whole world around Something tells me not to make a scene Ah..open up yor heart and let me in You got the whole world around You got the whole world around You got the whole world around You got the whole world around (You got the) got the whole world around (You got the) You got the whole world around (Yeah) You got the whole world around Yeah, open up yor heart and let me in! Don't be...

Am I Still The One? lyrics - Daniel Powter

I don't get much from hero I don't give them much thought I crumble on the crashing May you still around I don't like my reflection I don't like what i see I'm scared of my shadow You cast this doubt on me But am I still the one? Am I still the one? Am I still the one? I was still there in the shadow Just to understand your pain But when I need it Till them rush to left in the other way I wanted to have comfort The moment when we have begun I love you though you love to listen I'm still the one You call me through the windows You call them through the floor You sent these flyers to find me Now they're kicking down my door Am I still the one? Am I still the one? Am I still the one? I was still there in the shadow Just to understand your pain But when I need it Till them rush to left in the other way There's something I've got emptiness all be settled down I know you wanna me to be with I'm still the one So now would you leave angel? You got me all the wrong Tell me that you'll never leave me again, Now you're sorry 'uhuh uh' Tell me that you'll never leave me again, Now you're sorry 'uhuh uh oh-huh-yo' Tell me that you'll never leave me again, 'all these lovers' Sorry 'oh-huh-yo' Tell me that you'll never leave me again, 'all these lovers' Sorry 'oh-huh-yo' Tell me that you'll never leave me again, 'all these lovers' Sorry 'oh-huh-yo' Tell me that you'll never leave me again, 'all these lovers'

Negative Fashion lyrics - Daniel Powter

A teenage dream is on the scene The camera blows your mind Drop the weight for goodness sake And make the recover just on time And leave your excess baggage on the carousel You hope to stay here long enough for anyone to tell A little bit crazy but you get back And no one seems to care what's on your mind You don't know your right from wrong But you know you're halfway gone in a negative fashion So much more to be In every star there is a sun And baby you know you're the one in a negative fashion So much more to see You don't have to answer to anyone All that's left of you is what you've become 'Cause after all the bullshit you've been through You don't need all the lights to shine for you You don't know your right from wrong But you know you're halfway gone in a negative fashion So much more to be In every star there is a sun Baby you know you're the one in a negative fashion So much more to see Yeah, you don't have to answer to anyone All you need is what you have been for And all that's left is just behind the ...

Don't Give Up On Me lyrics - Daniel Powter

I don't know what I did But most bein' a fool I got no excuses So I wrote this song for you Whatever the reasons did you come to say goodbye I'm hoping for one more try I want to change your mind So I pick up the pieces I swallow all my pride I don't wanna wake up feeling this emptiness inside Did it spin you around Did it turn you upside down I wonder when you found out I'm a waste of your time So don't give up on me (don't give up on me) I never meant to steal your smile I haven't seen it for a while Don't don't give up on me (don't give up on me) Just try to understand I can be your better man I tell you once just don't give up on me I tell you once just don't give up on me And now I feel I'm out of place I look for you on every stranger's face I don't think I can do this any more Don't think I do this any more And every little things just falls apart From the very first that day I broke your heart It only makes me want you more and more Just like before Coz you're spinnin' around And now you turn me upside down I never meant to be a waste your time So don't give up on me (don't give up on me) I never meant to steal your smile I haven't seen it for a while Don't don't give up on me (don't give up on me) Just try to understand I can be your better man I tell you once just don't give up on Me and before If you're not that alone What am I supposed to do? I tell you once just don't give up on me Baby say you won't give up on me.

Fly Away lyrics - Daniel Powter

Hey there little baby won't you try your rise? You tell me what I wanna know You said your talent's ten,baby pushed around You hitting down to Mexico Tell me do you still in that same bikini That you worn in sixty-five You know that one more of those than other bands The one that make me feel alive If your daddy ask where've been you are What am I supposed to do? You just tell him the whole world pass me by I ain't got nothing left to prove I've been to fly fly fly away If our love is strong We would never go wrong Coz that's the place to be Baby bye bye bye baby If you ever come down We're still from around Watch the sunset to the sea Has that little black bird sit on the roof Where did my baby go You said something's life have thrown you off track The way we ain't got never know If your daddy ask where've been you are What am I supposed to say? You are telling em the whole world's passed me by Could I live my life my own way I've been to fly fly fly away If our love is strong We would never go wrong Coz that's the place to be Baby bye bye bye baby If you ever come down We're still from around Watch the sunset to the sea You've seen the pictures Are we dancing all night long You dress in that you used to be Long long gown So baby you fly fly fly away If our love is strong We would never go wrong Coz that's the place to be Baby bye bye bye baby If you ever come down We're still from around Watch the sunset to the sea Fly fly fly away If our love is strong We would never go wrong Coz that's the place to be Baby bye bye bye baby If you ever come down We're still from around Watch the sunset to the sea Watch the sunset to the sea

Beauty Queen lyrics - Daniel Powter

When your laughter's around Still there right in the face And you lay on the ground Wonder often to space It laugh at your bad It take what they see But you are good enough for me I see you run to the moon And you left us behind Was all just too cruel Or we're just to one kind I hope you remember I hope you're clear That you are good enough for me Yeah you are good enough for me You are learning how to fly away My beauty queen from yesterday And how's it felt to fall from grace Coz I never had the chance to say That you are good enough good enough for me If I can go back to the place There would be time I must understood Even though it's complicated I can seem to overstate it I think finally The moment should go Would you kiss me good bye Wherever you go I hope you believe That you are good enough for me Yeah you are good enough for me I guess I wasn't very strong I should've told you I was wrong And i wish i had a second chance Coz I really need to understand Why you have to fly away My beauty queen from yesterday And how's it felt to fall from grace I never had the chance to say That you are good enough good enough For me

My So Called Life lyrics - Daniel Powter

Running late, in my hit at my coffee table Then I run out of gas I heard the count but ended up in the middle of nowhere And someone stole all my cash Guess,guess Oh what a tango way by wave I've got no tricks that left on my sleeves I've tossed my head into the rain I've got it bad You've got it even worse now Let's put our heads together And reverse the curse I've dressed up but slip into the muddy water The stages just ain't going right Bottom vices always need be strict to crisis That's my so called life.life,life Oh what a tango way by wave I've got no tricks that left on my sleeves I've tossed my head to the rain I've got it bad You've got it even worse now Let's put our heads together And reverse the curse I'm all out of lock Or raising running out of me I'm all all screwed up But there's no place I rather be Oh, I've got it bad You've got it even worse now Baby we put our heads together And reverse the curse Oh, I've got it good (I've got it good now) You've even got it better now Baby we put our heads together And reverse the curse Yes we reverse the curse So my so called life
