It’s hard to be cool when I stand next to you
My poor little heart can’t sit still
But you probably don’t care and you’ll just walk away
I should probably know this by now
I don’t know what to say I don’t know what to do
Every time that I see you walk by
When I look up to see you flash a smile at me
You leave me tongue-tied
I don’t want you to be just another day in the rain
and I don’t want to be just another boy in your parade
Now I won’t, hold my flag in the air
And I’ll see, that this just isn’t fair
And I’ll go, marching on to the beat of my own drum
I’ve been wandering alone I’ve been sitting at home
It’s no wonder I’ve been losing sleep
I have not left the house and I sure miss you now
The only question is if you miss me
I don’t want you to be just another day in the rain
And I don’t want to be just another boy in your parade
And I won’t, hold my flag in the air
And I’ll see, that this just isn’t fair
And I’ll go, marching on to the beat of my own drum
I, I don’t know how, to let you know that, I like you
You, you’re the greatest, you’re my favorite, favorite girl
I don’t want you to be just another day in the rain
And I don’t want to be just another boy in your parade
And I won’t, hold my flag in the air
And I’ll see, that this just isn’t fair
And I’ll go, marching on to the beat of my drum on the all day parade

Crush
03:37

I saw her across the hall
Didn’t make me feel at all
Like I did that cold summer years ago
When I wondered where she went
Or if she knew how I felt
What we had and I wonder if she's glad
She’s not stuck with me
She sits silently
With her books
She won’t even take a look
She’s not stuck with me
She sighs quietly
She is waiting for the bus
And this crush is over us
I’d be lying if I do
Say I'm finally over you
And I won't say a word to anyone
There's no point in wishing
She's already with him
What we had and I wonder if she's glad
She’s not stuck with me
She sits silently
With her books
She won’t even take a look
She’s not stuck with me
She sighs quietly
She is waiting for the bus
And this crush is over us

Shambling
02:44

I want to go to heaven
And I know that's where I'll go
Because I already did my time in hell
Learn to brave the weather
When I ask you still say no
You turn around to hear me say "oh well"
That's swell
Hum your tune right on my ears
Watch me shiver to the sound
And my desperation hold you again
You have heard it all these years
Draw me straight back to the ground
It's so aggravating, it drives me insane
It hammers my brain
But when you stand this close to me
I know where I have to be // I'm shambling
Jealousy flows through me
Boiling at everyone
My incapacity to sit down and be still
Feel a bolt go through me
When I see you're still around
Those old feelings come back and begin to spill
You know they will
One thing I know for sure
Is that it's you that I adore // I'm shambling
But when you stand this close to me
I know where I have to be // I'm shambling

Don't Go Away
02:11

I don’t know how to let you know
I don’t want to see you go
Please stay, don’t go away
I tried so long to talk to you
When you’re gone I don’t know what to do
Please stay, don’t go away
If there’s another boy I’d like to know
That’s all you have to say and I will go
I’m all alone
I don’t want to startle you
I just want to tell you
You’re a dream, a dream come true
Although it seems naive
I hope you never leave
Please stay, don’t go away
If there’s another boy I’d like to know
That’s all you have to say and I will go
I’m all alone

Day and Night

We can talk about the way the sun hides behind the hills
Of the schoolyard in the night
What is he so shy about? Is there things he wants to hide?
Could it be he that he’s afraid?
It's not as strange as it seems, you can say he's just like me.
I'm not sure you know my name, there's no reason why you should
Still I hoped you might have heard
It took all of what I had to come up and talk to you
My mouth can't make out the words
My hands tremble at your touch, I just might have said too much
And I know. nothing lights my world like you do
I see stars every time you walk by
And I don't know if it's alright, but there's that chance that it might
Now I think I might know why the sun sets and says goodbye
With orange, pink and purple lights
He is hoping that the moon might notice him sometime soon
She's so beautiful and bright
Bright and beautiful like you, and I think she knows it too
And I know. nothing lights my world like you do
I see stars every time you walk by
And I don't know if you see, such a clumsy boy like me

Tell Me
03:18
|

Thought I'd spend all of my time
Wondering where you've been
And what you're doing now
And when did I begin
To be like this
And I thought that I'd be fine
Walking away from you
But it's me that's fell behind
And I don't know what to do
I've lost you
That's not far from the truth, tell me
Was it bad luck or just fate
That I came around so late, you tell me
Can you tell me what to feel
Because I'm not sure this is real, please tell me
So I thought I'd write again
Just to make sure you're still there
I'm not sure you'd like me now
'Cause there's really not much left
Just a stupid longing heart
Should have known it from the start
Was it bad luck or just fate
That I came around so late, you tell me
Can you tell me what to feel
Because I'm not sure this is real, please tell me
I've lost you
That's not far from the truth, tell me
Was it bad luck or just fate
That I came around so late, you tell me
Can you tell me what to feel
Because I'm not sure this is real, please tell me

Undevoted Friend
02:44

Take my time, I don't want it to end
Spend all my time on an undevoted friend
And I don't know what I would do
If I stayed with you
All my life I've been looking for this
What I found has been something I'll miss
When you're gone and I'll want it all again
I don't want you to stay
It was fun for a day
After all it meant
It's come to an end
my undevoted friend
Was it worth all the hurt and tears?
You will stay with me for years
But I will find the other side of this
Do you think of me sometimes?
If you did, I think you'd come by
But you don't so I think I should move on
I didn't want it to be
But it's killing me
Yes, it has to end
Do you even care?
My undevoted friend
Do you think of me sometimes?
If you did, I think you'd come by
But you don't so I think I should move on
I don't want you to stay
It was fun for a day
After all it meant
It's come to an end
my undevoted friend
my undevoted friend
my undevoted friend
Guess I'm the undevoted friend.

Everyone wants to be by you
Everyone knows your name
Everyone thinks you're delightful
Everyone wants to be your friend
I don't want to be in my shoes
I don't want to stay the same
I want to be just like you
I want to be your friend
I want all the friends in the world
And then you might notice me
And when you look at me
You might see
That we could be friends too
That we could be friends too
I want to be admired
I want to be adored
I want the world to sing to my song
I want to sing along
But I want to be different
I don't want to be the same
I shouldn't have to be just like you
I shouldn't have to pretend
I want all the friends in the world
And then you might notice me
And when you look at me
You might see
That we could be friends too
That we could be friends too
I heard the last bell ringing
Going out to see the world
And when I've met some new friends
Then maybe I won't need you
I want all the friends in the world
And then you might notice me
And when you look at me
You might see
That we could be friends too
That we could be friends too
That we could be friends too
That we could be friends too

Long ago you said love
Was a thing of the past
And boy they go fast
You said someday I'd know why
But I think you lied
Because I still swear in vain
That my heart's still breaking for you
And I'm aching for you
Then one day you wrote
To say I've been wasting my time
I do all of the time
You said I'm not getting it right
And I know you're right
You said you felt bad for me
And I want to leave I know
Now you're gone, we've had our fun
Now there's nothing left to say
You wrote a letter saying we'd be better
But I don't feel that way
Now you're gone, we've had our fun
And there's nothing left to say
You wrote a letter saying I'd be better
But I still dream of you.

All Day Long
02:35

All day long we walked about
And all day long you talked about her
I can see I'll never make you stay
If you don't love me enough to want to stay with me
You've got nothing left that I want anyway
Then we stopped and sat about
Talked about this and that
About how you belong to her
And you don't want anybody but her
Couldn't love anybody but her
Still you come and say to me
You want to be good friends with me
I can't let you use me anymore
I don't just want you
I wanted you to love me
If I can't have that I don't want anything
So now I sit and wonder why
The thought of you still leaves me crying
All day long
All day long
All day long

What's life when you're stuck without a dream
What's dreams when you're not right here with me
And I knew that my dreams were coming true
The first day that I caught a sight of you
You're nice when I see you in my dreams
You're not when I see you in the street
And I hope that someday we'll be okay
Until then I'll be waiting for the day
You're where you want to be, you're not stuck right here with me
and I have to confess you're a dream
When I'm sitting all alone I sit staring at the phone
You're so done, not talking to me
I'm dumb thinking that you would like me
You're smart because you never said a thing
And I hope that someday we'll be okay
Until then I'll be waiting for the day
You're where you want to be, you're not stuck right here with me
and I have to confess you're a dream
When I'm sitting all alone I sit staring at the phone
You're so done, not talking to me

Parasol

Parasol, I’ll leave you behind
I don’t need you, I’ll walk alone
I know the rain will stop someday
I’ll just have to wait
My parasol,
Oh, parasol
I’m left out in the rain
Again
And you know it well
But his hand is wrapped around you
Does he need you more than me?
You think things are better this way
You don’t need me, well, that’s okay
The rain has to stop someday
I tell myself the same thing everyday
My parasol,
Oh, parasol
How’d I get tangled in this mess?
Do you even care anyway?
And you know it well
But his arms are wrapped around you
Does he really need you more than me?
Parasol, parasol
I hate to say I need ya
Parasol, parasol
I’m not alright
Parasol, parasol
I wanna be beneath ya
Parasol, parasol
The light’s too bright
Now I can't believe
This is you and this is me
It seems more like a film
Or a part of a novel
Parasol, parasol
I hate to say I need ya
Parasol, parasol
I’m not alright
Parasol, parasol
I wanna be beneath ya
Parasol, parasol
The light’s too bright
The rain keeps pouring down
And it gets harder and harder
It's something you should think about
Or don't you think I deserve you?
Parasol, parasol
I hate to say I need ya
Parasol, parasol
I’m not alright
Parasol, parasol
I wanna be beneath ya
Parasol, parasol
The light’s too bright
Parasol, parasol
I’m not alright
Parasol, parasol
The light’s too bright
