Butterfly Lyrics


I’m taking a moment just imagining that I?m dancing with you
I?m your pole and all you’re wearing is your shoes
You got soul, you know what to do to turn me on
Until I write a song about you
And you have your own engaging style
And you’ve got the knack to vivify
And you make my slacks a little tight
You may unfasten them if you like
That?s if you crash and spend the night
But you don’t fold, you don’t fade
You got everything you need, especially me
Sister, you’ve got it all
You make the call to make my day
In your message say my name
Your talk is all the talk
Sister, you’ve got it all
You got it all
Curl your upper lip up and let me look around
Ride your tongue along your bottom lip then bite down
And bend your back and ask those hips if I can touch
’Cause they’re the perfect jumping off point
Getting closer to your butterfly
Will you float on by?
Oh, kiss me with your eyelashes tonight
Or Eskimo your nose real close to mine
And let’s mood the lights and finally make it right
But you don’t fold, you don’t fade
You got everything you need, especially me
Sister, you’ve got it all
You make the call to make my day
In your message say my name
Your talk is all the talk
Sister, you’ve got it all
You got it all, you got it all, you got it all
You got it all, you got it all, you got it all
You got it all, woo, hey baby, uh
You’ve got it all
Doll, I need to see you pull your knee socks up
Let me feel you upside down, slide in, slide out
Slide over here, climb into my mouth now child
Butterfly well you landed on my mind
Damn right you landed on my ear and then you crawled inside
And now I see you perfectly behind closed eyes
I want to fly with you and I don’t want to lie to you
’Cause I, ’cause I can’t recall a better day
So I?m coming to shine on the occasion
You’re an open-minded lady, you’ve got it all
And I never forget a face
Except for maybe my own, I have my days
And let?s face the fact here
It’s you who’s got it all
You know that fortune favors the brave
Well let me get paid while I make your breakfast
The rest is up to you, you make the call
You make the call to make my day
In your message say my name
Your talk is all the talk
Sister, you’ve got it all
I can’t recall a better day
So I?m coming to shine on the occasion
Hey sophisticated lady, oh you got it all
You got it all, you got it all
You got it all, you got it all, you got it all
You got it all, you got it all, you got it all
You got it all! Hey! You got it all, woo!
You got it all
You got it all
You got it all
Butterfly, baby, well you got it all

You and I Both Lyrics


Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
Oh taking your advice I’m looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing
But often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright lights turn to night
Until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
Others only read of the love, the love that I love.
See I’m all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages for words
More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
And if you could see me now,
Oh love, no
You and I, you and I
Not so little you and I anymore, mmm…
And with this silence brings a moral story
More importantly evolving is the glory of a boy
Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
And if you could see me now
Well I’m almost finally out of
I’m finally out of
Finally deedeedeedee
Well I’m almost finally, finally
Well I’m free, oh, I’m free
And it’s okay if you have to go away
Oh just remember the telephone works both ways
And if I never ever hear them ring
If nothing else I’ll think the bells inside
Have finally found you someone else and that’s okay
Cause I’ll remember everything you sang
Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see now
well I’m almost finally out of.
I’m finally out of, finally, deedeeededede
well I’m almost finally, finally, out of words.

Absolutely Zero Lyrics


You. You were a friend. You were a friend of mine I let you spend the night
You see it was my fault. Of course it was mine.
I’m too hard at work. Have you ever heard of anything so absurd 
ever in your life.
I’m sorry for wasting your time.
See who am I to say this situation isn’t great? When it’s my job to make the most of it
Of course I didn’t know that it would happen to me. Not that easy.
Hey what’s that you say? You’re not blaming me for anything well that’s great
But I don’t break that easy. Does it fade away?
So that’s why I’m, I’m apologizing now for telling you I thought that we could make it
I just don’t get enough to believe that we’ve both changed.
See who am I to say this situation isn’t great? It’s my time to make the most of it
Of course I didn’t know that it would happen to me. Not that easy.
If all along the fault is up for grabs why can’t you have it
If it’s for sale what is your offer, I’ll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero.
Well neither one of us deserves the blame because opportunities moved us away
And it’s not an easy thing to learn to play a game that’s made for two that’s you and me
The rules remain a mystery. See it can be easy.
See who am I to say this situation isn’t great? It’s our time to make the most of it
How could we ever know that this would happen to me, not that easy, no
When all along the fault is up for grabs and there you have it
If it’s for sale what is your offer, I’ll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero.

I'll Do Anything Lyrics


Go make your next choice be your best choice
And if you’re looking for a boy with a voice, well baby I’m single
Are you in the mood for some dude, are you in the mood to be subdued
Or would you rather just mingle?
Let’s get set then to go then and let us jet set we’ll be like the jetsons
You can be Jane my wife. Should I marry Jane tonight?
I would if I could. I’d do anything spontaneously.
Or we can keep chilling like ice cream filling
We can be cool in the gang if you’d rather hang
Ain’t no thing. I can be lugubrious with you.
I got no ifs ands ors no wits or whats about it
But this place is getting crowded and my house is two blocks away
Or maybe closer
I would if I could. I’d do anything spontaneously.
You know I would, if I could. I’ll do anything spontaneously.
If you could be nimble, you’d have it simple just like me.
So go on and try it, do not deny yourself your freedom.
So step on up to the plate get a date with Mraz
See you better act fast because supplies they never
Now did you know this is limited time offer
So go make your mind up before our times up
You better start winding it up because the party’s almost over
(and if you should know girl, go a little bit lower now)
see how I would, if I could. I’d do anything spontaneously.
You know I would, and I can prove it. I’ll do anything spontaneously.

Sleep All Day Lyrics


His after moan though cries oh no
He’s building up a shine but he take it slow
And he knows it’s time to make a change here And time to get away
And he knows it’s time for all the wrong reasons, oh, time to end the pain
But he sleep all, sleep all day, sleep all, we sleep all day over again
Why don’t we?
She said what would your mother think and how would your father react oh lord
Would he take it all back what they’ve done
No way he said take it, take it and don’t break it with your own two hands
That was my old man and he said
if all is grounded you should go make a mountain out of it
oh what a lovely day to have a slice of humble pie
recalling of the while we used to drive and drive here and there
going nowhere but for us, nowhere but for the two of us
and we knew it was time to take a chance here
and time to compromise our lives just a little while
and it was time for all the wrong reasons
but time is often on my side and I give it to you tonight
and we sleep all, sleep all day, sleep all, we sleep all day over again
as time goes by we get a little bit tired waking and baked another Marlboro mile wide
it’s sending the boys on the run in the time in hot summer sun
to swim beneath or over outside as they’re reading between the lines
then they remember the part in the hallmark card where they read about the dreams
and reaching for the stars to hold on a little bit closer to
and they knew it was time, time to take a chance here
time to compromise our little lives just a little while
and they knew it was time for all the wrong and, lonely, lonesome reasons, oh
as time is often on my side and I give it to you, oh boy
and we sleep all, sleep all day, sleep all, we sleep all day over again
She said what would your mother think and how would your father react oh lord
Would he take it all back what they’ve done
No way he said take it, take it and don’t break it with your own two hands
That was my old man and he said
if all is grounded you should go make a mountain out of it

I'm Yours Lyrics


Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out, I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And It's our God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate, our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

D-d-do do you, but do you, d-d-do
Scooch closer dear so i can nibble your ear
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well Open up your mind and see like me
(I won't hesitate)
Open up your plans and damn you're free
(No more, no more)
Look into your heart and you'll find the sky is yours
(It cannot wait, I'm sure)

So please don't, please don't, please don,t
(There's no need to complicate)
There's no need to complicate
(Our time is short)
'Cause our time is short
(This is our fate)
This is, this is, this is our fate
I'm yours
