1/Teardrops On My Guitar (Acoustic)

Drew looks at me,

I fake a smile so he won't see,

that I want, and i need

everything that we should be

i'll bet she's beautiful,

that girl he talks about,

and she's got everything that i have to live without.

Drew talks to me,

I laugh cause its so damn funny,

That I can't even see

anyone when he's with me

He says he's so in love,

he's finally got it right

I wonder if he knows he's all i think about at night.

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

the only thing that keeps me wishin' on a wishin' star

he's the song in the car i keep singin dont know why i do.

Drew walks by me,

can he tell that i can't breathe?

and there he goes so perfectly

the kind of flawless i wish i could be

She'd better hold him tight

give him all her love

look in those beautiful eyes

and know she's lucky cause

Hes the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

the only thing that keeps me wishin' on a wishin' star

he's the song in the car i keep singin dont know why i do

So i drive home alone

as i turn out the lights

i'll put his picture down and maybe get some sleep tonight

cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

the only one thats got enough of me to break my heart

hes the song in the car

i keep singin

dont know why i do

hes the time taken up

but theres never enough

and hes all that i need to fall into...

Drew looks at me,

i fake a smile so he wont see...

2/Tied Together With A Smile

Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty

Is the face in the mirror looking back at you

You walk around here thinking you're not pretty

But that's not true, cause I know you...

[Chorus:]

Hold on, baby, you're losing it

The water's high, you're jumping into it

And letting go... and no one knows

That you cry, but you don't tell anyone

That you might not be the golden one

And you're tied together with a smile

But you're coming undone

I guess it's true that love was all you wanted

Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change

Hoping it will end up in his pocket

But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain

Oh, cause it's not his price to pay

Not his price to pay...

[Repeat Chorus]

You're tied together with a smile

But you're coming undone... oh

Goodbye, baby

Goodbye, baby

With a smile, baby, baby

3/I'm Only Me When I'm With You

Friday night beneath the stars

In a field behind your yard

You and I are painting pictures in the sky

And sometimes we don't say a thing

Just listen to the crickets sing

Everything I need is right here by my side

And I know everything about you

I don't wanna live without you

I'm only up when you're not down

Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground

It's like no matter what I do

Well you drive me crazy half the time

The other half I'm only trying to

Let you know that what I feel is true

And I'm only me when I'm with you

Just a small town boy and girl

Living in a crazy world

Trying to figure out what is and isn't true

And I don't try to hide my tears

My secrets or my deepest fears

Through it all nobody gets me like you do

And you know everything about me

You say that you can't live without me

I'm only up when you're not down

Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground

It's like no matter what I do

Well you drive me crazy half the time

The other half I'm only trying to

Let you know that what I feel is true

And I'm only me when I'm with you

When I'm with anybody else

It's so hard to be myself.....

and only you can tell....

That I'm only up when you're not down

Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground

It's like no matter what I do

Well you drive me crazy half the time

The other half I'm only trying to

Let you know that what I feel is true

And i'm only me

who i wanna be

Well i'm only me when i'm with you

With you

4/Beautiful Eyes

Your beautiful eyes stare right into my .. eyes

and sometimes i think of you late at night

5/Love Story

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run

You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess

It's a love story baby just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you

We keep quiet cause we're dead if they knew

So close your eyes

Escape this town for a little while

Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please don't go and I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run

You'll be the prince I'll be the princess

It's a love story baby just say yes

6/The Way I Loved You

He is sensible and so incredible

And all my single friends are jealous

He says everything I need to hear and it's like

I couldn't ask for anything better

He opens up my door and I get into his car

And he says you look beautiful tonight

And I feel perfectly fine

But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain

And it's 2am and I'm cursing your name

You're so in love that you act insane

And that's the way I loved you

Breakin' down and coming undone

It's a roller coaster kinda rush

And I never knew I could feel that much

And that's the way I loved you

He respects my space

And never makes me wait

And he calls exactly when he says he will

He's close to my mother

Talks business with my father

He's charming and endearing

And I'm comfortable

But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain

And it's 2am and I'm cursing your name

You're so in love that you act insane

And that's the way I loved you

Breakin' down and coming undone

It's a roller coaster kinda rush

And I never knew I could feel that much

And that's the way I loved you

He can't see the smile I'm faking

And my heart's not breaking

Cause I'm not feeling anything at all

And you were wild and crazy

Just so frustrating intoxicating

Complicated, got away by some mistake and now

I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain

It's 2am and I'm cursing your name

I'm so in love that I acted insane

And that's the way I loved you

Breaking down and coming undone

It's a roller coaster kinda rush

And I never knew I could feel that much

And that's the way I loved you oh, oh

And that's the way I loved you oh, oh

Never knew I could feel that much

And that's the way I loved you

7/The Best Day

I'm five years old

It's getting cold out

I've Got my big coat on

I hear your laugh

And look up at smilin at you

I run and run

Past the pumpkin patch

And the tractor rides

Look now, the sky is gold

I hug your legs

And fall asleep on the way home

I don't know why all the trees change in the fall

But I know you're not scared of anything at all

Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away

But I know I had the best day with you today

I'm 13 now

And don't know how

My friends could be so mean

I come home crying

And you hold me tight

And grab the keys

And we drive and drive

Until we found a town far enough away

And we talk and window shop

Til i forgotten all their names

I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school

But I know I'm laughin

On the car ride home with you

Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay

But I know I had the best day with you today

I have an excellent father

His strengh is making me stronger

God smiles on my little brother

Inside and out

He's better than I am

I grew up in a pretty house

And I had space to run

And I had the best days with you

There is a video I found

From back when I was three

You set up a paint set in the kitchen

And you're talkin to me

It's the age of princesses and pirate ships

And the seven dwarves

My Daddy's smart

And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world

Now I know why the all the trees change in the fall

I know you were on my side

Even when I was wrong

And I love you for giving me your eyes

Staying back and watching me shine

And I didn't know if you knew

So I'm takin this chance to say

I had the best day with you today

8/

Cold As You

You have a way of coming easily to me

And when you take, you take the very best of me

So I start a fight cause I need to feel something

And you do what you want cause I'm not what you wanted

[Chorus:]

Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

Just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say

And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through

I've never been anywhere cold as you

You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray

And I stood there loving you and wished them all away

And you come away with a great little story

Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you

[Chorus]

Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

So Just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say

And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through

I've never been anywhere cold as you

You never did give a damn thing honey but I cried, cried for you

And I know you wouldn't have told nobody if I died, died for you, died for you

Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

Oh Every smile you fake is so condescending

Counting all the scars you made

Now that I'm sittin here thinkin it all though

I've never been anywhere as cold as you

9/I'd Lie

don't think that passenger seat

Has ever looked this good to me

He tells me about his night

And I count the colors in his eyes

He'll never fall in love he swears

As he runs his fingers through his hair

I'm laughing cause I hope he wrong

I don't think it ever crossed his mind

He tells a joke I fake a smile

That I know all his favorite songs

And..

[chorus]

I could tell you his favorite colors green

He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth

His sister beautiful, he has his father's eyes

And if you ask me if I love him,

I'd lie

He looks around the room

Innocently overlooks the truth

Shouldn't a light go on?

Doesn't he know I've had him memorized for so long?

He sees everything black and white

Never let nobody see him cry

I don't let no body see me wishing he was mine

[chorus]

He stands there then walks away

My god if I could only say

I'm holding every breathe for you...

He'd never tell you but he can play guitar

I think he can see through everything

But my heart

First thought when I wake up is

My god he's beautiful

So I put on my make up

And pray for a miracle

Yes I could tell you his favorite colors green

He loves to argue oh and it kills me

His sisters beautiful he has his father's eyes

And if you asked me if I love him

If you ask me if I love him

I'd lie
