Strange

I was just a simple boy in search of someone

That I could share a life of simple dreams

Two story home with white picket fences

But life is not as easy as it seems

 

You weren't supposed to be the one I fell for

And I don't know what it is you see in me

My world is now extremely complicated

And I guess that's just the way it has to be

 

How did our lives get so strange?

How in the world will we cope with all the change?

What do we have to rearrange?

How did our lives get so strange?

 

I don't belong around your social circles

And you certainly aren't comfortable in mine

We go together like oil and water

But if opposites attract then we're fine

 

Let's make our own destiny

And together, you and me

We'll bend the world to fit to our desire

It don't matter what they say

Because I love you anyway

And our differences will only fuel the fire

Moving On

You were the one

And I knew from the start

I'd find a way

If I followed my heart

I was lost

When I looked into your eyes

I fell in love

So imagine my surprise

 

You told me you loved me

Then walked on out the door

You trampled my heart

And you left it on the floor

It hit me so hard

That I can barely stand

Now I'm doing the only thing I can

 

(chorus)

I'm moving on

But I'm leaving part of me behind

My trust and my innocence

They'll be left for someone else to find

Gonna chain up my heart

Can't afford to be kind

I'm moving on

If I can just get you out of my mind

 

I used to be

Such a boy among men

You'd come around

And you'd toy with me again

You promised me

Things too good to be true

But I believed

Every word that came from you

 

You know what you are

And you know what you've done

You made me believe

That I was the only one

You told me not to trust you

But I did it anyway

Now there's only one thing left for me to say

 

chorus

 

instrumental break - 16 measures

 

I guess I should thank you

For making me this way

Today I'm much smarter

Than I was yesterday

Cause now I know better

Than to believe the lies

The next time I fall into a pair of eyes

 

chorus

 

Keep On Reaching

The road is long and winding

And you don't know where it leads

But it's better than the place you're coming from

At the end of the rainbow

You'll find everything you need

Heaven only knows what dreams will come

Let your heartbeat be the beating of the drum

 

Keep on reaching for a star

And stay true to who you are

Don't you know that your time is coming soon

Give yourself a second chance

And don't be afraid to dance

Before too long the radio is gonna be

Playing your tune

 

Your happily ever after

Wasn't quite the way you planned

But your story still has chapters left to write

Just know that I have faith in you

And I'll always be your friend

So any time there's battles you must fight

Just call and I'll be right there by your side

 

Don't give up and don't give in

The power you need is there within

You're stronger now than you have ever been
