Strawberries 04:42
lyrics

Strawberries I remember my first kiss when I was just thirteen Well she was simply the cutest girl I'd ever seen And I was shy to the bone, you know, but she was kind to me I was walking her home, yea, stopped by a shady tree She said "I'll tell you a secret, but before I can I need you to close your eyes," which I did and then... She tasted like strawberries and honeydew Blueberries and honey too I didn't know what to do, no, I was so surprised Somehow she managed to run away before I opened my eyes And now so many years later I still have memories Of sunny days and a first kiss under that shady tree She said "I'll tell you a secret, but before I can I need you to close your eyes," which I did and then... She tasted like strawberries and honeydew Blueberries and honey too Well it's been many years Some with heartache and tears And the losses I've had on the way But in spite of it all, yeah I still can recall All the joy that I felt on that day She said "I'll tell you a secret, but before I can..." She asked me to close my eyes, which I did and then... She tasted like strawberries and honeydew Blueberries and honey too She smelled just like sweet cherries And pink lemonade Her skin was like mangoes Warm just like apples in the shade She tasted like strawberries and honeydew Blueberries and honey too, honey too, honey too, honey too

Shine Like The Stars You got me caught in a sea of emotion With all the power of your deep blue ocean I don't know why I love you like you do But when I'm caught in your tides I know This much is true... You make me wanna shout, you make me wanna scream You make me wanna cry, you make me wanna bleed You make me wanna laugh, you make me wanna sing You make me wonder why I don't question everything You make me wanna shine Like the stars in the sky Like the stars in the sky Shine like the stars in the sky Like the stars in the sky One day we're happy and the next we're a mess And then I see you in that silky dress I don't know why you move me like you do But there's just something in your eyes and I know It's all I can do... Every time you come around You find some way to drag me down Then you pick me up again Tell me I'm your bestest friend I wish that I could turn away From all the crazy things you say Maybe it's me, how would I know?

Bitter & Sweet Give me some sunshine And a little less rain Give me some pleasure Ohh…you know I got enough pain Give me some treble And a little more bass Give some flavor Mmm...something sweet I can taste I know that bitter will come with the sweet One day I got money then I'm out on the street I'm flyin' up high, then I'm sinking down low The high and the low are just part of the flow In the game we all play Oooh…and I like it that way So tell me your stories And I'll tell you no lies I'll show you a rainbow A ribbon 'cross your sky Show me those streetlights That light up your way I'll show a sunrise To brighten up your day I know that night will always follow the day And sunny days will always follow the rain And while the clouds are building up in the sky I think of all the sunny days in my life That are coming my way The game we all play So give me that sunshine And a little less rain Give me some pleasure You know I got enough pain Give me some treble And a little more bass Give some flavor Something sweet I can taste It's bitter & sweet Bitter & sweet...

I Want To Be In Love Again I want to be in love again I want to have no doubt I want to be in love again I want to work it all out I want to show you how I really care Just like I done before I want to be in love again I want to know for sure I got no time for messing around With all the foolish games that I like to play I gotta push my doubt underground To give me any hope that I'm gonna stay I want to be in love again And find a love so true I want to be in love again I hope this time it's with you And if I show you how I really care Would you ease my doubt I want to be in love again How could I live without? (This time it's for real, this love is really real) .....I gotta push my doubt underground..... (It's never gonna change, we'll always feel the same) .....To give me any hope that I'm gonna stay..... (Forget about the past, I know this time this love is gonna last) .....But this time I'm not messing around..... .....With all the foolish games that I used to play..... I want to be in love again I want to have no doubt I want to be in love again How could I live without? I want to show you how I really care Just like I done before I want to be in love again This time I’ll know for sure (This time it's for real, this love is really real) .....I want to be in love again..... (It's never gonna change, we'll always feel the same) .....I want to be in love again..... (Forget about the past, this love is gonna last) .....I want to be in love again..... (It's never gonna change, we'll always feel the same) .....I want to be in love again..... (This time it's for real, this love is really real) .....I want to be in love again..... (It's never gonna change, we'll always feel the same) .....I want to be in love again..... (This time it's for real, this love is really real) .....I want to be in love again.....

Rock and Roll 'Do My baby's singing in a rock and roll band And every night I'm there with all of her fans I like to close my eyes and listen all night But she's been doing something new with her hair My eyes are open now, in fact I just stare At her ebony mane, oh it's a beautiful sight Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. A jet black dye job how I love her rock and roll 'do Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. Kinda spikey on top, yea I love that rock and roll 'do My baby's always had her own unique style And she can sing just like a wailing child She can bring me to my knees with a note or two But now I have to admit that I'm torn Between her singing and the way that she's shorn I never thought I'd be amazed by a new hairdo Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. Shining in the spotlight, yea I love her Rock and roll 'do Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. Yea I could watch it all night, how I love that rock and roll 'do The show is over and we're back at my place She turns to me with that look on her face And asks how did I like that brand new song? I wasn't listening I'll admit that it's true How could I tell her, what could I do? I ran my fingers through her hair and played along Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. A jet black dye job how I love her rock and roll 'do Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. Kinda spikey on top, yea I love that rock and roll 'do Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. Shining in the spotlight, yea I love her Rock and roll 'do Rock and roll 'do. Rock and roll 'do. Yea I could watch it all night, how I love that rock and roll 'do
