"Eat, Sleep, Repeat" (2006)

Where's My Head lyrics - Copeland

Where I hung my coat, it's where I left my head
So you'd be wise to doubt every word I ever said
'Cause I just woke to eat some chocolate
And go straight back, I'll go straight back to bed

Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?

And I'd search for reason I'm awake
To hear this song march, blasphemy I'd take
And the only chance that I have tonight
Is if something that I ate made my dreams not right
And my love shows up in a dress of white

Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?

Eat, Sleep, Repeat lyrics - Copeland

It occurred to me at once
That love could be a great illusion
That makes fools of brilliant thinkers everyday
And turns hearts of stone and steel
To a place where they would feel
Like they are falling, falling quickly in its way
Falling, falling quickly in its way

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you thinks it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love...

It occurred to me at once
That love gets everything it asks for
Like a young girl picking flowers in the lawn
She gets every kiss and tear
She gets every smile and fear, but still
She never finds the last of them is gone, oh
She never finds the last of them is gone

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love...

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love...

Control Freak lyrics - Copeland

You lose control when you hold too tight,
And turn your head long enough to let it bite.
'Cause faith left me staring at the ceiling through the night.
It's freaking me out.

And when I fell asleep, it plagued my dreams,
And 30 bits of glass had become my teeth.
They were breaking each and every time I tried to speak.
It's freaking me out.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
And I could run like a coward for the door,
But I'll never get out.
You're freaking me out.

You lose your mind if you lose control.
It makes you feel ashamed for the hearts you stole.
And now your own heart's scared of an attack,
'Cause you can't give them back.
You're stressing me out when you prove me wrong,
You're wearing me out 'cause I've slept so long.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
And I could run like a coward for the door,
But I'll never get out.
You're freaking me out.

Threw it all away,
I threw it all
And I threw it all away,
And the best part is not knowing just what I threw away.
I threw it all away.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
And I could run like a coward for the door,
But I'll never get out.
You're freaking me out.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
But I keep running right back around for more,
'Cause I'm in love with my doubt.
It's freaking me out.

Careful Now lyrics - Copeland

Oh, maybe you should make a list for me
Of everything important in this world
In a note of urgency
'Cause I don't know how to feel

Maybe you should stay a mystery
And I know you as well as anyone else
And you will appear the same to me
'Cause I don't know how to feel

Ooooh, ooooh...

Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else

Oh, maybe you should make a list of me
Of everything important in this world
In a note of urgency
'Cause I don't know how to feel

I threw everything out that doesn't make sense
To find a thousand more things that don't make sense
And I can't help but get lost in a fault like this
When I don't know how to hide myself in open air
Where I'm all alone, alone, alone

Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone
Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else

Ooooh, ooooh....

Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone
Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else

Love Affair lyrics - Copeland

Fell past a cheekbone hill
To a piece of her floor.
The hope of the world
In an awkward spill.

Oh she'd lie on her bed
And stare into harsh white light.
And think that her heart's not right.

'Cause love took her hand like a thief,
took her heart like a robber
and the feelings that scare her
become her relief.

Just let me run where I want to run
Just let me love who I want.
Just let me run where I want to run
Just let me love who I want.

In a flash a heart is slain.
You have to ask in all this pain
Was your heart too soft?
Was your love in vain?

Was your kiss too weak?
Were your eyes too tight?
And much too young to be in love.
Much too young to be in love.

Just let me run where I want to run.
Just let me love who I want.
Just let me run where I want to run.
Just let me love who I want.
Just let me run where I want to run.
Just let me love who I want.

There are no rules for this love.
Just keep your head and don't give up.
Like all the fools who play it smart.
Lose your head just for your heart
Just for your heart...

I'm Safer On An Airplane lyrics - Copeland

It happened then, it happens now
They let you in, they let you down
And it feels like we can't get out
And it feels like hell

I think I'm safer in an airplane
I think I'm safer with my lungs full of smoke
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without hope

The day came in, the day went out
And not a bit of peace was spoken about
And it feels like a suicidal world
And it feels like hell

I think I'm safer in an airplane
I think I'm safer if I run through the street
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without peace

Oh, what arms will stretch out when they've had enough?
Oh, when they are tired of holding up us...

I think I'm safer on an airplane
(I think I'm safer on an airplane)
I think I'm safer in the sky up above
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without...

I think I'm safer on an airplane
(I think I'm safer on an airplane)
I think I'm safer in the sky up above
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without love

By My Side lyrics - Copeland

It's takin' time, all this fear I pushed back to move on
Beating me like a panic attack since you've gone
And if I never fear to be more alone, I do now

I turn to see my faded tracks in the snow
I've come so far with no idea where to go
And if I never fear to be more alone, I do now
I do now

I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side, ooh

It's takin' hold of a fool with a fondness for pain
And turn to run without a chance to explain
And if I never thought I'd fall like the rain, I do now
I do now

I don't look back to spot where I fell
Don't you look back, and don't you ever tell
'Cause we know pride, it doesn't heal all that well
All that well, all that well

I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side
In a crazy world, you'll be right by my side

I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side
In a crazy world...

And I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side
You'll be right by my side

Cover What You Can lyrics - Copeland

Oooh, you could run and hide
Oooh, in the street outside

But if you get caught in the rain,
Just cover what you can,
And the rest it washes out
Like a bloodstain

Oooh, oooh

And if you get caught in the fire,
Just think about what made your heart cry out
For a little fire at all

Ooh...

The Last Time He Saw Dorie lyrics - Copeland

He's in love with tragedy, in love with tragedy
She was a wreck, but he loved her
She was a wreck, but so was he
And the last time he saw Dorie, he didn't know what to say but
"Thank you because you loved me, it's all on me
cause I didn't want to stay, I didn't want to stay..."

Live, live, live because you love, love, love
And love will make you give, give, give
And give in when you break, break, break
But you just want to fix yourself
Just to break again...

I'm A Sucker For A Kind Word lyrics - Copeland

I'd be hanging on their words
Like they almost meant a thing
And the only lullaby I heard
The sirens blaring, singing me to sleep
Holding my loved one tight...

On the softness of her laugh,
I could almost make my bed
But the racket of her absence draw in
The sirens blaring, ringing in my head
Holding nothing tight, holding nothing tight
With my eyes so wide

In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness,
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness

She'd be hanging on my words
Like I almost meant a thing
And I'd give anything not to let her down
But finally sleep through just one more tonight
Holding her so tight, holding her so tight
But my eyes are wide

In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness,
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness

'Cause my mind just can't stop moving, I think I know why
Oooh, I know why
It's sad, but I'm a sucker for a kind word
And I'll just hurt until I find one
I'll just hurt until I find one

And I've been trying all the windows
And I've been running up the staircase
In a house without a back door...

Sleeplessness, sleeplessness, sleeplessness
In a house without a back door (Sleeplessness)
I was looking for a fire escape (Sleeplessness)
And I'd be ripping up the floorboards (Sleeplessness)
Just trying to get away...

When You Thought You'd Never Stand Out lyrics - Copeland

In other lives
In a bulletproof suit with some friends of mine
I wrote the plotline
Only I knew who survived
And through the night
In a really fast car on an uphill climb
Blew past a danger sign
And fell through darkness, sublime
But awoke just in time

They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
But not for the last time

In younger days
I do my schoolwork while the neighbors play
But stare into space
With no feeling to convey
With no look on my face
In younger days
I’m stealing bases while my mother prays
And dreading to wake
Longing for one more play

They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
But not for the last time

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I tell you that I could hear you running out?
Didn’t I find you when I knew you were hiding out?
Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out?
Didn’t I find you? Didn’t I find you?

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at (they’re gonna come to light tonight)
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out? (I think, I think that it’s me)
Didn’t I find you? (They’re gonna come to light tonight)
I think, I think that it’s me

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out?
Didn’t I find you? (They’re gonna come to light tonight)
I think, I think that it’s me

"In Motion" (2005)

No One Really Wins lyrics - Copeland

Welcome love, I have made a place for you here
I know every word they say.
I know how they want to make you change.

Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
I can love you as you are
I didn't mean to make you want to leave

It's a fight between my heart and mind,
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time

If you don't find the love you want,
if I have acted ungracefully
I don't want to see you go
I never meant to make you want to leave

But go if you want.
Make your way straight to the door.
I hope that you look back before you go
'cause grace looks back before it starts to leave

It's a fight between my heart and mind,
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time

Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
I will love you as you are
I didn't mean to make you want to leave

It's a fight between my heart and mind
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time

Choose The One Who Loves You More lyrics - Copeland

Rain, rain, rain on my mind
I've got a secret life
Wipe, wipe, wipe it away
Nothing can make me dry

Fight all the while
Fight 'til I think I'm free
Feel rains we never see
Beautiful secret lives

It can make you face all your fears
It can make you face all your fears

Oh, smile, smile in a day
Fear takes its place at night
Oh, oh, I'm pretty in the rain
I love your secret life

It can make you face all your fears
It can make you face all your fears.

I could leave you well enough alone
Believe and you'll be overcome and gone
By grace away
Better off than if I stayed
I could leave you well enough alone
Believe and you'll be overcome and gone
By grace away
Better off than if I stayed

I could leave you walk away
We'll save it for another day
Through all the wars I've come to know
It's punches pulled, not towels thrown in

When they come knocking on your heart's door
Choose the one who loves you more
And when you've found something to die for
(Make you face all your fears)
They'll be knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
When they come knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
Choose the one who loves you more
(Make you face all your fears)
And when you've found something to die for
(Make you face all your fears)
They'll be knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
When they come knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
Choose the one who loves you more
(Make you)

Pin Your Wings lyrics - Copeland

Hey Amanda
Where'd you find these crazy boys this time?
They say you're pretty but you don't think they're right.

Hey Amanda
While you're staring at your telephone tonight
do you feel like turning it off, turning off all of the lights?

Pin your wings down
if it's over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow

Hey Amanda
who just threw your heart away this time?
And when you're crying on your bed does he help keep you alive?

Pin your wings down
if it's all over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow

I'll take the blame if you take me home now
Cuz there's no place left for trust in all this pain
And you know when it rains in this town I get washed away
Without a sound
So pin my wings down

If it's over
If it's over now

Pin your wings down
if it's over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow

Sleep lyrics - Copeland

Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Am I alone?
Am I staring into bright lights
Have I gone home?
I must be dreaming when I'm sitting here
On someone else's throne
Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Won't you let me know?

Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?

Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Am I alone?
Am I following the lines on faces never shone?
I want to see your hairline, your cheekbones
Your red lips on your cell phone
Won't you let me know?

Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?

Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?

Kite lyrics - Copeland

I hid myself from failure and fear
O my dear you're a threat to the bad in us all
They tell themselves that each word from your lips
Or the grace in your eyes overcomes any fall

Over the twilight you're listening for me
Darling, go to sleep
Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be
Loved so deep

Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite
You'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight

Don't hide yourself inside till I'm old
O my dear you're a threat to the bad we all see
I'm beside myself for the touch of your lips
Or the grace of your eyes that can see good in me

Over the twilight you're listening for me
Darling, go to sleep
Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be
Loved so deep

Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite
You'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight

Don't Slow Down lyrics - Copeland

With a heart so pure
You could fall so quickly
But don't you dare slow down for me
Were it not for hearts like mine
Calloused thickly
You could fall so easily
(Don't you dare slow down for me)

You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side
You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side

Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
This moment could be our last
You fall in love and I'm running after
You move way too fast

But don't slow down
And don't let go
Hold me close now, lest I fall
They say I don't know how to love the right way
But you make me feel, you make me feel like I do

You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side
You could take everything I have
Just don't leave my side now, don't leave my side

Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
This moment could be our last
You fall in love and I'm running after
You move way too fast

Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
(Don't slow down)
This moment could be our last
(Don't slow down)
You fall in love and I'm running after
(Don't slow down)
You move way too fast

Don't slow down
Don't slow down

Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
This moment could be our last
You fall in love and I'm running after
You move way too fast

Cause your words hit like a train and I can't ignore it
(Don't slow down)
This moment could be our last
(Don't slow down)
You fall in love and I'm running after
(Don't slow down)
You move way too fast

Don't slow down
Don't slow down

Love Is A Fast Song lyrics - Copeland

You don't have to be ashamed
'Cause you're a miracle through and through
Oh, and you don't have to be ashamed
Of the miracle inside of you

What has love become?
(What has love become?)
It's not like we used to hear in those old songs
And it's not like yours
(And it's not like yours)
What has love become?

Whoa...your love is in motion
And it's spinning me around again
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the movement that's in you

You should not be angry
If all she wants is your money
Oh, you should not be angry
'Cause all you want is her body

What has love become?
(What has love become?)
It's not like we used to hear in those old songs
And it's not like yours
(And it's not like yours)
What has love become?

Whoa...your love is a fast song
And I'm dancing 'cause I'm loved again
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the rhythm inside you
Whoa...your love is a slow song
It's resounding through my world again
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the song inside of you

Whoa...your love is in motion
And it's spinning me around again
Whoa...your love is a fast song
And I'm dancing 'cause I'm loved again
Whoa...your love is a slow song
It's resounding through my world again
Whoa...my heart is in motion
For the song inside of you

You Have My Attention lyrics - Copeland

Quiet now, your voice seems miles away
Yet somehow, I hear your song resound
A little bit softer each day
And from my tired heart, a little bit farther away

I’ll sing along
The whole day through
Just do your best to hear me
It’s all you can do

You have my attention
Like you’ve had all the while
Since that first day when you made my heart smile
With loving eyes and tired sighs that flow
You have my attention
Like a shout through an empty sanctuary
Speak but a whisper

I’ll hear a sermon
I’ll sing along, the whole day through
Just do your best to hear me
It’s all you can do
I’ll sing along, the whole night through
While you sleep safely
I’ll be thinking about you

You have my attention

You Love To Sing lyrics - Copeland

i've never any time to play
i always seems to slip away
but it never really goes by
while i wait here with my lullaby
for our only try

sing with your head up
with your eyes closed
not because you love the song
because you love to sing
because you love to sing, oh

you saw this frustration on my brow
you noticed i'm distracted now
i'm thinking only of my bill fold
and how I want to face you with
diamonds and gold in my head, in my head

sing with your head up
with your eyes closed
not because you love the song
because you love to sing
because you love to sing, oh

Hold Nothing Back lyrics - Copeland

Do what you want but I know who you are
Say what you want but I know what you're thinking
Go where you want but I won't be too far
Go where want and I know where you'll end up

If you fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back
I'll fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back from you, oh
You oh
You oh
You

Do what you want but I know who you are
Say what you want but I know what you're thinking
If you fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back
I'll fall in love
Fall in love and hold nothing back from you, oh
You oh
You oh
You

EP: "Know Nothing Stays The Same" (2004)

Coming Around Again lyrics - Copeland

(originally by Carly Simon)

Baby sneazes
Mommy pleases
Daddy breezes in.
So good on paper
So romantic
So bewildering

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again.
So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart (broken heart)

Pay the grocer
Fix the toaster
Kiss the host goodbye.
Then you break a window
Burn the soufflae
Scream the lullaby

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again.
So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart

I believe in love, But what else can I do, I'm so in love with you.

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again, coming around again, coming around again...

I know nothing stays the same (I believe in love)
But if you're willing to play the game (I believe in love)
It's coming around again

I do believe, and I do believe in love.

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again.

(I believe in love)

Another Day In Paradise lyrics - Copeland

(originally by Phil Collins) 

She calls out to the man on the street, "Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep. Is there somewhere you can tell me?"
He walks on, doesn't look back, he pretends he can't hear her.
He starts to whistle as he crosses the street, seems embarassed to be there.

Oh, think twice, it's just another day for you and me in paradise.
Oh, think twice, it's just another day for you, you and me in paradise.

She calls out to the man on the street, he can tell she's been crying.
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet, she can't walk, but she's trying. (trying)

Oh, think twice, it's just another day for you and me in paradise.
Oh, (oh) think twice, (oh) it's just another day for you, you and me in paradise.

Oh Lord, is there nothing more anyone can do?
Oh oh Lord, there must be something you can say..

You can tell from the lines on her face, you can see that she's been there.
Probably been moved on from everyplace, cause she didn't fit in there.

Oh, think twice, it's just another day for you and me in paradise.
Oh, (oh) think twice, (oh) it's just another day for you, you and me in paradise.
Just think about it, ohh.....

It's just another day for you and me in paradise
It's just another day for you and me ohh....

Take My Breath Away lyrics - Copeland

(originally by Berlin)

Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game.
On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame.
Turning and returning to some secret place in time.
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say, "My love"

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love.
Never hesitating to become the fated ones.
Turning and returning to some secret place to cry.
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say ohh...

Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you, in time you slipped away.
When the mirror crashed I called and turned to hear you say..
If only for today, I am not afraid.

Take my breath away ohhh...
Take my breath away

Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game.
Haunted by the notion somewhere there's a love in flames.
Turning and returning to some secret place inside.
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say ohh...

Take my breath away ohhh....
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Take my breath away

She's Always A Woman lyrics - Copeland

(originally by Billy Joel)

She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes.
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies.
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child
but she's always a woman to me.

She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you.
She can ask for the truth
but she'll never believe you.
And she'll take what you give her,
as long as it's free.
She steals like a thief
but she's always a woman to me.

Oh-she takes care of herself. She can wait if she wants. She's ahead of her time.
Oh-well she never gives out, And she never gives in, She just changes her mind.

She'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden.
She'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me.

La da da da da, da da da da da da, uhh uhh uhh uhh uhh uhh oohh oohh ohh ohhhh ohhhhhh

Oh- she takes care of herself She can wait if she wants She's ahead of her time.
Oh-well she never gives out And she never gives in She just changes her mind.

She's frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She'll do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
She can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me.

Part-Time Lover lyrics - Copeland

(originally by Stevie Wonder)

Call up, ring once, hang up the phone.
To let me know you made it home.
Don't want nothing to be wrong with part-time lover.

If she's with me I'll blink the lights.
To let you know tonight's the night.
For me and you my part-time lover.

We are undercover passions on the run,
Chasing love up against the sun.
We are strangers by day, lovers by night.
Knowing it's so wrong, feeling so right.

If I'm with friends and we should meet.
Just pass me by, don't even speak.
Know the word's "discreet" when part-time lovers.

But if there's some emergency.
Have a male friend to ask for me.
Then she won't seem to be my part-time lover.

We are undercover passions on the run,
Chasing love up against the sun.
We are strangers by day, lovers by night.
Knowing it's so wrong, feeling so right.

I've got something that I should tell.
Last night someone rang our doorbell.
It was not you, part-time lover.

And then a man called our exchange.
But did not want to leave gis name.
Two can play the game of part-time lovers.

We are undercover passions on the run.
Chasing love up against the sun.
We are strangers by day, lovers by night.
Knowing it's so wrong, feeling so right.

"Beneath Medicine Tree" (2003)

Brightest lyrics - Copeland

If you find yourself here on my side of town
I'd pray that you'd come to my door
Talk to me like you don't know what we ever fought about
Cause I don't remember anymore
I just know that she warms my heart
And knows what all my imperfections are
And she said that I was the brightest little firefly in her jar

And I just know that she warms my heart
And knows what all my imperfections are
And she says that I am the brightest little firefly in her jar

Testing The Strong Ones lyrics - Copeland

There's an angel by your hospital bed
Desperate to hear his name on your breath
As he looks down you're not making a sound
Open your eyes look at me
I'll bring to you whatever you need
And I'll tell you I'm sorry
That I can't take this pain away from you
And I'd put it on my own body if I knew how to
Can't you see?

I've gotta bust you outta here somehow
I've never seen your heart this tired
I've never seen your spirit held down
I know that you say
This is what you get
For being a bad child
But I know this will be your reward
In just a little while
In just a little while

Its testing the strong ones
Scarring the beautiful ones
It's holding the loved ones
One last time
Its testing the strong ones
(testing the strong ones)
Its scarring the beautiful ones
(staring the beautiful ones)
Its holding the loved ones
One last time
Its testing the strong ones
(testing the strong ones)
Its scarring the beautiful ones
(scarring the beautiful ones)
Its holding the loved ones
One last time
Testing the strong ones
(testing the strong ones)
Scarring the beautiful ones
(scarring the beautiful ones)
Its holding the loved ones
One last time

Priceless lyrics - Copeland

I remember when I'd run to you
through field of white flowers
Your embrace is my air
How I needed you there
And all of the world and
All of it's powers
Couldn't keep your love from me no
Couldn't keep your love from me

Cause I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in
I need you here like you've always been

And then I waved goodbye to you
From fields of white flowers
You were so proud of me
I was too proud to see that
All of the world and
All of it's powers
Couldn't keep your love from me no
Couldn't keep your love from me

Cause I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in
I need you here like you've always been

Taking for granted
(taking for granted)
... all of her smiles
That got away

And now I'm looking up to you
From fields of white flowers
You were so proud of me
I'm so proud of you
All of the world and
All of it's powers
Couldn't keep your love from me no
Couldn't keep your love from me

Cause I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in
I need you here

I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in
I need you here like you've always been

La da da da...

Take Care lyrics - Copeland

I'll take care of you oh
Have faith that when you call my name
I'll be there

It was a straight faced lie
I believed
It was a straight faced lie
You would ever leave me
But for now I'll keep believing your words
And soon enough my strength will return

I'll take care of you oh
Have faith that when you call my name
I'll be there
I'll be right there
So keep breathing oh
Keep that sweet heart of yours beating
I'll be right there
I'll be right there

Let me draw the blinds for you
You can watch the sunset from
The bed in your hospital room
Until you're sleeping
I'm sure
I don't understand how I found a love so pure

I'll take care of you oh
Have faith that when you call my name
I'll be there
I'll be right there
So keep breathing oh
Keep that sweet heart of yours beating
I'll be right there
I'll be right there

Don't lift a finger
Let me show you
The only way to let this go
Don't lift a finger
Let me hold you
Hold you here until the pain it has all gone

I'll take care of you oh
Have faith that when you call my name
I'll be there
I'll be right there
So keep breathing oh
Keep that sweet heart of yours beating
I'll be right there
I'll be right there

I'll take care of you oh
Have faith that when you call my name
I'll be there
I'll be right there
So keep breathing oh
Keep that sweet heart of yours beating
I'll be right there
I'll be right there
I'll be right there
I'll be right there

When Paula Sparks lyrics - Copeland

Sleep now moon
I'll watch over her while the sun is up
And you'll have her eyes again soon
It's a glorious day
And my lonely heart is tired again
And I am
Starved for her attention

That's when Paula sparks OH...
That's when Paula sparks a little light in my eye
(Ever since she went away)
That's when Paula sparks a little light in my eye
(I miss her more everyday)
That's when Paula sparks OH...

Sleep now sweet princess
I'll cheer for you silently
And carefully not to disturb oh
And I'll be ready on that evening
When you're starved for my attention
And you'll say
You'll say
Wait now prince
There's a brilliant sky above
And a jealous moon in love and they are
Starved for our attention

Ever since you went away
That's when Paula sparks OH...
I miss her more everyday
That's when Paula sparks a little light in my eye
Ever since you went away
That's when Paula sparks a little light in my eye
I miss her more everyday
That's when Paula sparks OH...

Sleep now moon
That's when Paula sparks OH...
Ever since you went away
That's when Paula sparks a little light in my eye
Ever since you went away
That's when Paula sparks a little light in my eye
Ever since you went away
That's when Paula sparks OH...

California lyrics - Copeland

I miss the way you sing low
So I can't hear your voice over
The radio in my car
But you knew every word they sang
You know just the right thing to say when the
Distance rips us farther and farther and farther away
I'll see you soon

If you're coming back this way again
Come back from California
All of us here in Florida
Are starved for your attention
Are starved for your attention
Come back from California
All of us here in Florida
Are starved for your attention
Are starved for your attention

Maybe I fell too fast
Maybe I pushed you away
Now you're gone and I'm afraid
That you're never coming back this way again

I'll see you soon
If you'll come back here
I'll see you soon
Just say that you want to see me too

Come back from California
All of us here in Florida
Are starved for your attention
Are starved for your attention
Come back from California
All of us here in Florida
Are starved for your attention
Are starved for your attention

You know I won't mind if you
Monopolize all my time
I won't say a thing at all
I won't say a word no

So come back from California
Come back from California

She Changes Your Mind lyrics - Copeland

She changes your mind
When you see the joy in her eyes
It makes you feel
It makes you feel
She draws your eyes
From all the things that made you numb
It makes you feel
It makes you feel

And I could open up my heart and let her out
And I would never have to sing her name aloud
It was your hello that kept me hanging on every word
And your goodbye that keeps me listening for your voice around each corner
It keeps me listening for you voice around each corner

And I'll sing songs
To help me stay up all night long
Cause I don't want to go to sleep
And I'll sing a song
And I hope you're listening carefully
And know exactly what I mean
You know exactly what I mean

And I could open up my heart and let her out
And I would never have to sing her name aloud
It was your hello that kept me hanging on every word
And your goodbye that keeps me listening for your voice around each corner
It keeps me listening for you voice around each corner

It's the song you must seek out
When your night has just begun
In the distance you can find
The lips from which was sung a melody.

It was your hello that kept me hanging on every word
And your goodbye that keeps me listening for your voice around each corner
I was hanging on every word
And your goodbye
It keeps me listening for your voice around each corner
It keeps me listening for your voice around each corner

There Cannot Be A Close Second lyrics - Copeland

You've got an extra special heart
A perfect light that shines through
And it seems the hardest part
Is shining back at you
Shining back at you

So forgive me
Cause I don't know what to do
When you look at me
There can be no hesitation
There cannot be a close second to you
I don't know what to do
When you look at me
When you look at me

I've got a perfectly normal heart
Bruised and broken from within
At times I don't know how to start
To let you in here
To let you in here

So forgive me
Cause I don't know what to do
When you look at me
There can be no hesitation
There cannot be a close second to you
I don't know what to do
When you look at me
When you look at me
Cause I don't know what to do
When you look at me
There can be no hesitation
There cannot be a close second to you

To let you in here

So forgive me
Cause I don't know what to do
When you look at me
There can be no hesitation
There cannot be a close second to you
I don't know what to do
When you look at me
There can be no hesitation
There cannot be a close second to you

Coffee lyrics - Copeland

There's plenty of time left tonight
I promised I'd have you home before daylight
We do the best we can in a small town
Act like big city kids when the sun goes down

If it's not too late for coffee
I'll be at your place in ten
We'll hit that all night diner
And then we'll see

There's so many things I have to say
I'll stay up all night to hear about your day
We do the best we can in a small town
Act like kids in love when the sun goes down

If it's not too late for coffee
I'll be at your place in ten
We'll hit that all night diner
And then we'll see

There's a love that transcends
All that we've known of ourselves
And I'll wait for it to come
I'll wait for it to come
Well it's got to be strong to touch my heart
Through its shell
And I'll wait for it to come
I'll wait for it to come

If it's not too late for coffee
I'll be at your place in ten
We'll hit that all night diner
And then we'll see

There's a love that transcends
All that we've known of ourselves
And I'll wait for it to come
I'll wait for it to come
Well it's got to be strong to touch my heart
Through its shell
And I'll wait for it to come
I'll wait for it to come down

Walking Downtown lyrics - Copeland

We were walking downtown yeah
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)
We were walking downtown yeah
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)

Through the night
We were waiting for a sign
Maybe rendered in the darkened sky
Drawn by imaginary lines
Connecting radiant points of light
(please don't go)
Cause you showed up with your hair down
I might not sleep tonight

We were walking downtown yeah
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)
We were walking downtown yeah
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)

Lift your gaze from the pavement
From the streets
That we've crossed a thousand times before
Dry your eyes
There are birds singing on lamp posts
They don't know what all your crying's for
(please don't go)
And I'm sure that I've not seen
The Christmas lights this bright before

We were walking downtown yeah
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)
We were walking downtown yeah
(walking downtown)
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)
We were walking downtown yeah
(walking downtown)
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)
We were walking downtown yeah
(walking downtown yeah)
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)

When Finally Set Free lyrics - Copeland

Feel the pain teaching us how much more we can take
Reminding us how far we've come
Let the pain burn away from our hearts
We have time to start all over again
Feel the pain teaching us how much more we can take
Reminding us how far we've come
Let the pain burn away our hearts
We have time to start all over again
Feel the pain teaching us how much more we can take
Reminding us how far we've come
Let the pain burn away from our heart
We have time to start all over again
Well if you would shine your love down here oh Make our hearts as perfect as new
Oh if you would shine your love down here oh
I promise I'd reflect right back at you
Oh I promise I'd reflect it right back at you
Oh I promise we'll reflect it right back at you

That Awful Memory Of Yours lyrics - Copeland

That awful memory of yours
What blessing,
what a curse
And all our confessing forgotten every word we're saying
From the womb,
I heard my name,
on your lips,
it sounds the same
as the many times I've ignored it since that day
That awful memory of yours
I'll never make anyone happy that way
Telling all the mistakes that I've made
But I promise you I'll never be the same
Would you found me like a treasure
From a long forgotten time
And if you kept me here forever
You know I wouldn't mind
Welcome home
Oh welcome home
You know that I'd embrace you
I was too ashamed to face you saying
Welcome home
Welcome home
You know I want you to be mine,
You were patient you were fine,
You were patient you were fine
That awful memory of yours
What a blessing,
What a curse,
Of our confessing forgotten every word we're saying
From the womb,
I heard my name,
On your lips,
It sounds the same
As the many times I've ignored it since that day
Welcome home
Oh welcome home
You know that I'd embrace you
I was too ashamed to face you saying
Welcome home
Welcome home

May I Have This Dance lyrics - Copeland

May I have this dance?
Saw you sitting lonely, I hope you would say "Yes"
May I have this dance?
Look into my eyes as I offer you my hand, my hand

Dance forever...

Stretch out my hand
To dance with your inviting, warmth providing hand
And I'll stand out facing me, embracing me
Into my companion for a dance

Dance forever...
Dance forever!

When we dance, I'll whisper nothing in your ear
Speak in words you'd never hear
This, my love, it will not stop or start
And, you know that in your heart
You know that in your heart...

You lift your hands to me!
You lift your hands to me, and hold me so close!
We will dance forever!
We will dance forever!
We will dance forever!

Second Star To The Left, Go Until Dawn lyrics - Copeland

All this time away from you
with you would be better
all those days of summer fun
I missed you more than ever
absence make the heart grow weathered
But fonder still you know I never will stay silent
it was a big mistake to let me have my way in the first place
it was a big mistake to let me memorize your face

I'm jealous of you moon tonight you get to see her
alone beneath the stars and everything I fear
all my strength was tranquilized
and everyday I get weaker
but stronger when I think of how we never sat silent
it was a big mistake to let me have my way in the first place
it was a big mistake to let me I memorize your face

12.20.99 lyrics - Copeland

My heart is racing
Desire opens the door
I'm sure of how you will feel
Though I've always believe in them blindly before
I've never seen an angel so real

I held your hand last night
It was more than I ever could've hoped
Though I always believed in them blindly before
I've never held an angel so close

Intoxicating love, how dare I not expect you
When the God over us is done
He'll bring me straight to you

I held your hand last night
It was more than I ever could've hoped
Though I always believed in them blindly before
I've never held an angel so close

Intoxicating love, how dare I not expect you
When the God over us is done
He'll bring me straight to you

Swim Farther Aaron lyrics - Copeland

I was wrong to make a country club of my affection
Subjective love for those of my selection
But now she's found someone to love her more than I ever could
You look much better when you smiled
You've been down for quite awhile
Amazed by the change in you
Much that I still won't admit to
What brought about the words in me
Now sees the best in everything

I was wrong to make a country cluI don't know what happened that evening
Ever since I've been alive
Convictions beyond understanding
Understanding of who's I am
So God dont give me vision
My faith will be my relief
God don't give me a vision
Cause I already believe
Cause I already believe

Father strengthen me now
Till my only weakness is you
Father comfort me now
I won't rest till I'm walking with you
And forgive my lack of perfection
Let me know for sure
How tainted appears my reflection
Cause perfection is anything you
Cause perfection is anything you

Father strengthen me now
Till my only weakness is you
How tainted appears my reflection
Cause perfection is anything you
Cause perfection is anything you

Oh Father strengthen me now
Till my only weakness is you
Father comfort me now
I won't rest till I'm walking with you
And forgive my lack of perfection
Let me know for sure
How tainted appears my reflection
Cause perfection is anything you
Cause perfection is anything you
Cause perfection is anything youb of my affection
Subjective love for those of my selection
But now she's found someone to love her more than I ever could
You look much better when you smiled
You've been down for quite awhile
Amazed by the change in you
Much that I still won't admit to
What brought about the words in me
Now sees the best in everything

You look much better when you smiled
You've been down for quite awhile
Amazed by the change in you
Much that I still won't admit to

The Change in You lyrics - Copeland

I was wrong to make a country club of my affection

Northbound I-75 lyrics - Copeland

I can see a million colors fall from heaven
Drip into the sunset
I believe there's a million other colors
That I have never seen
That are waiting for me there
Doesn't a sunset like that just make you want to fall in love
On a moonlit night when everything was right,
And then we look above

Hey!

I can see a million colors fall from heaven
Drip into the sunset
I believe there's a million other colors
That I have never seen
That are waiting for me there
Doesn't a sunset like that just make you want to fall in love
On a moonlit night when everything was right
And then we look above

Doesn't a sunset like that just make you want to fall in love
On a moonlit night when everything was right
And then we look above

Doesn't a sunset like that just bring you down to your knees
On a moonlit night when everything was right
And then we look above

Idee Fix lyrics - Copeland

I will keep you here with me
Your hand pressed softly against my cheek
Your voice resounds so soft and sweet
In my ears like a symphony

Walking Downtown lyrics - Copeland

(EP Version)

We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town

The weeks when my dreams came true
The days I set my eyes on you
A gentle word you spoke to me
A voice I knew I had to hear again

We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town

Five days before Christmas night
I held your hand for the very first time
Christmas lights lit up the park
Your eyes penetrating through the dark
I kiss the ring you gave to me
I promised you would walk with me again
A lifetime with my dreams would see
The day you gave your hand to me

We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town

The weeks where my dreams came true
The days I set my eyes on you
A gentle word you spoke to me
A voice I knew I had to hear again

We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown...)
We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown...)
We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown...)
We were walking downtown
Yeah...
My favorite part of town
(walking downtown)

Adisson's Walk lyrics - Copeland

I've never been so lonely
In this desereted trail
Even though you hold my hand
Your hand is so cold and frail
Gentle breath and tenderness
Come words that you once told me
Somehow those words that you say
They make me much less lonely

crashes the cold of the night and roses all wither away
The night and the flower cannot overpower the words that I want you to say
You may slip and you may slide, but you got an angel by your side
Hold you in his arms, keep you safe from harm

I heard those words a thousand times before
And I've said them a thousand more
But hearing those words, believing those words
Was a thing I never did explore
See, I just wanted to be a better son, a better friend, a better man, a better whatever
So the next time I walk this path again I'll walk it with a true friend

You may slip and you may slide, but you got an angel by your side
Hold you in his arms, keep you safe from harm
You may slip and you may slide, but you got an angel by your side
Hold you in his arms, keep you safe from harm
You may slip and you may slide, but you got an angel by your side
Hold you in his arms, keep you safe from harm
Yeah...
Keep you safe from harm...
Yeah...
Keep you safe from harm...
Yeah...
Father in the sky, he loves you more than I

[SECOND PROGRESSION]
I'd rather be with you than without
Within you than about you
And I come to find out you want the same
Oh lord I want to breath you
May my every movement free you
From the place I've kept you locked up all these days

I'd rather be with you than without
Within you than about you
And I come to find out you want the same
Oh lord I want to breath you
May my every movement free you
From the place I've kept you locked up all these days

I'd rather be with you than without
Within you than about you
And I come to find out you want the same
Oh lord I want to breath you
May my every movement free you
From the place I've kept you locked up all these days

Black Hole Sun lyrics - Copeland

(originally by Soundgarden)

In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise
As no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
The sun
In my disgrace
Boiling heat
Summer stench
’neath the black
The sky looks dead
Call my name
Through the cream
And I’ll hear you
Scream again

Black hole sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Won’t you come

Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind
Tired friend
Times are gone
For honest men
And sometimes
Far too long
For snakes
In my shoes
A walking sleep
And my youth
I pray to keep
Heaven send
Hell away
No one sings
Like you
Anymore

Black hole sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Won’t you come

Black hole sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Won’t you come

Black hole sun
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Black hole sun
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Black hole sun
Black hole sun

Hang my head
Drown my fear
Till you all just
Disappear

Black hole sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Won’t you come

Black hole sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Won’t you come

Black hole sun
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Black hole sun
Black hole sun
Won’t you come
Black hole sun
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Black hole sun
Black hole sun

Do You Hear What I Hear lyrics - Copeland

Said the night wind to the little lamb
"Do you see what I see?"
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see?

A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
"Do you hear what I hear?"
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?

A song, a song, high above the trees
With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king
"Do you know what I know?"
In your palace, oh, mighty king
Do you know what I know?

A child, a child, shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold

Said the king to the people everywhere
"Listen to what I say"
Pray for peace people everywhere
Listen to what I say

A child, a child, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break,
Every step you take
I’ll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play,
Every night you stay
I’ll be watching you

Oh, can’t you see
You belong to me?
My poor heart aches
With every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake,
Every claim you stake
I’ll be watching you

Since you’ve gone I’ve been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around, but it’s you I can’t replace
I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please

Oh, can’t you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake,
Every claim you stake
I’ll be watching you
Every move you make,
Every step you take
I’ll be watching you
Every move you make,
Every step you take
I’ll be watching you

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bone you break
Every step you take
Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
Every move you make
Every heart you break
Every smile you fake
Every thing you stake
Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas lyrics - Copeland

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
Next year all your troubles will be out of sight,

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away,

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore, ah
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Will be near to us once more,

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bow,
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Once again as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore, ah
Faithful friends who are dear to us
And they near to us once more,

Someday soon we all will be together
If the fates allow,
But 'til then we'll have to muddle through somehow, somehow
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
