I know you're bad news I know you're bad news And I'm singing the blues Cuz I can't say no to you I always want what I just shouldnt have Always the thing that's right beyond my grasp I've got too much passion for any ordinary man But I see you baby and I tremble within because.. When you came into town the world tunred upside down It's not a feeling I can easily forget No I try to say no but the feeling still grows I have to have you in my bed I see you baby and I know where this ends Head in my hands and I'm ashamed I ever called you a friend But you grab me baby and the tradgedy blurs Even now I know I'm casting my own curse Cuz you're bad, bad news Your bbbbad bad bad news But I live for the pain, I live for the strain If it's too easy I'm just not interested So go on and sin, and hurt me again I never ever wanna play pretend because Can't say no, I won't say no Come on let's go and take me home with you

I am an eternal optimist I am very very dangerous If you're always living on the bright side You might get burned I am an eternal optimist I envy all you pessimists If you're always living on the dark side You don't get burned Whenever opportunity comes my way I always oh oh oh so naively say This is it, this is it This is the one thing that I need oh this is it This is it, this is it this is the one thing that I wanted This will cure all my disease This is it I am an eternal optimist I am very very very very dangerous

Opposites 04:11
Opposites attract and react You pull me in so close, I turn back Opposites attract and react I turn away in fear but you're still here And oh I love how you're so different from me But oh could you change everything you are Oh I love how you're so different from me But I fear you're never gonna know my whole heart Opposites attract and react I wanna love you so but you'll never adapt Opposites attract and react I need to tell you this but I'll collapse without your kiss Opposites attract and react The chemistry is strong but it's not exact Opposites attract and then they must react Baby there's some things we just cannot neglect

Off and On 04:31
Let's hurt ourselves again Take a deep breath and just dive in We've been here so many times before And here I am still knockin on your door When it was high it was so high when it was low it was low Somehow still there's something left unknown And when I look at you everything fades away When you take me in your arms I wanna stay So let's break our walls within Wipe the slate and begin again There's something neither of us can ignore And here you are still knockin on my door our love grows stronger everyday And it goes on and on and on Then it's off So let's not turn it off turn it on turn it on

Home 03:06
I'm flying home to see my family I hope I bring a few things back with me A little piece of my humanity To restore some of my sanity I'm going home home where I'm free free free Home home where I'm free to be me Home home baby can't you see I need a break from this city I wanna breathe in that michigan air And feel the breeze blowing right through my hair I'll feel my feet as they sink in the sand fresh water lake in the palm of my hand I love my life I love my friends and my art But there is nothing that can warm my heart Like seeing my mom as she opens her arms and says Welcome back my girl it's so good to see you Rest your weary head and let me feed you You've been away but now you best believe it you are Home home where you're free free free Home home with your family we missed you so much darlin can't you see Come take a break from that city mm I'm home mm yeah yeah mmm And when I say goodbye I know I'll be sad Especially when I get that hug from my dad He holds me tight says babe, you doin' alright? I say yeah daddy don't you worry at night Cuz' I'm goin Home home where I'm free free free Home home where I'm free to be me Home home god it's so good to see Those gleaming lights of my city

We've been apart for such a long long time Still you've always been on a little piece of my mind Dreaming of a past I thought I'd left behind Falling back in love is such a fine, fine line I wanna believe you're still in my life for a reason But I don't wanna be naieve I'm looking through rose colored glasses and seeing a bright shinging star I'm looking through rose colored glasses But I know, I know I know that won't get me very far Back in the day seemed like the happiest time of my life I thought about the future and being your wife There's still something about you I can't live without So why am I still filled with such doubt I wanna believe that we are meant to be together But something inside feels wrong Maybe I'm lookin through... Well I gotta keep my head on straight Gotta remember it all The good times and the bad Before I start to fall I can't keep looking through rose colored glasses Cuz' that isn't who you really are Gotta take off these rose colored glasses Cuz' I know I know I know It won't get me very far Cuz you're no good for my heart
