ALL SONGS WRITTEN BY REEVE COOBS
Magic Show
Follow me down to the magic show
You'll disappear and then reappear
See if you can count the cards on the table
Don't lose the cup with the penny under
Slow down please
I can't tell the fake from the real
Our love is a magic show
It's a magic show
Abracadabra and out comes a bunny
This game is starting to be not so funny
Your disappearing act has lost it's glow
And I'm out the door with the audience flow
Slow down please
I can't tell the fake from the real
Our love is a magic show
It's a magic show
Our love is a magic show
It's a magic show
Follow me down to the magic show
You'll disappear and then reappear
To Be With You
If I could number my days none would be without you
If I could write out my dreams every one would be with you
And if I could fly like an eagle I'd soar over mountains and rivers to be with you
To be with you
If I could change my path you know I'd be on yours
And if I could trim down this memories you know that I would
And if I could try any harder I would give all I have just to be with you
To be with you
But if it takes my whole life
But if it takes my whole life
But if it taken my whole life
You'd be worth it
You'd be worth it
If I could say all the things I thought I never could
If I could write all the songs that I thought I never would
If I could build a way to your heart
I'd work all night and day just to be with you
Oh to be with you
But if it takes my whole life
But if it takes my whole life
But if it takes my whole life
You'd be worth it
But if it takes my whole life
But if it takes my whole life
But if it takes, it takes, it takes my whole life
You'd be worth it
You'd be worth it
Stranger
Stranger to me, stranger to you
You looked so shiny and brand new
Beers and cheers and little white lies
You loved it when I sang up real high
Calloused fingers and tangled hair
He loved that your smoke lingered in my air
Told me once, had to hear it twice
I was the best thing in his life
I guess it's time to let him go
I guess it's to feel my way home
Feel my way home
A simple letter, a careless word
I stayed up all night hoping it'd return
If love is a battle, I dealt the fatal blow
This is just how my love goes
A final touch, a last goodbye
I always loved the way you tried not to cry
And I hope you hear me from time to time
Little blue river running through your mind
I guess it's time to let him go
I guess it's time to feel my way home
Feel my way home
You're a stranger to me
Stranger to me
You're a stranger to me
So strange to me
Stranger to me, stranger to you
You looked so shiny and brand new
Caught
How long can a person live this way?
So afraid of the day and the light it lives in
Will the darkness ever really be gone?
Will I ever really be proud of my own body?
Take away all the pain and the sorrow
Take away all the fear and regret
Take away all the tears that must follow
What's left?
You said you'd always be near
You said you'd always been clear
You said you'd never lied
Well then I guess that you've been caught
Happy Being Wrong
Tell her
there's nothing to worry for
I've shut my windows and I've locked my door
Ain't no one breaking in here
It's all my fault, why I am this way
Wish I could pin it on you
You've made your own mistakes
And I know one day I'll wake up
And wish this day had never come
Go tell him
I'll back tomorrow
Right now I'm leaving my head
I'll see you in the morning
And I know one day I'll wake up
And wish this day had never come
But for now I'm happy being wrong
As the violin plays
It sings my sadness away
I sip from empty cups
And for a moment I feel alive
And I know one day I'll wake up
And wish this day had never come
But for now I'm happy being wrong
It's a new day
Night Owl
It’s getting late and the streets are bare
Let’s share a glass of whine and regret
I know It’s time to say goodnight
But how I hate giving in to the light
Birds are singing the lights coming through
Alarm clock for this night owl
Give me just one more
Play me that song the one you know so well
And keep it low so the neighbors won’t yell
Let’s analyze till the day is new
There’s got to be a reason for all your blues
Birds are singing the lights coming through
Alarm clock for this night owl
Give me just one more hour
A summer night is night at it’s best
The perfect time for a good long chat
Tonight I’m leaving up to you
You better head for the door or take off your shoes
Birds are singing the lights coming through
Alarm clock for this night owl
Give me just one more hour
To sit and laugh and talk and drink
What’s so wrong with getting no sleep?
Let It Out
Why don’t you take your time
It’s not like I have anything else to do
Except for a million things
And I have to be on the other side of town by 3
So go ahead and speak your mind
Or tell me off, whatever it is
Just let it out, Just let it out, Oh let it out
After everything is said and done
Will you still wanna be here?
And I believe the day will come
When your whole world comes crashing down
It’s gonna come down
You sure got a lot of nerve
Coming in here and telling me what to do
We all know I’m not your girl
So why is it I have to listen to you?
So go ahead and speak your mind
Or tell me off, whatever it is
Just let it out, Just let it out, Oh let it out
After everything is said and done
Will you still wanna be here?
And I believe the day will come
When your whole world comes crashing down
It’s gonna come down
So take your time and let it out
Just take your time and let it out
After everything is said and done
Will you still wanna be here?
And I believe the day will come
When your whole world comes crashing down
After everything is said and done
Will you still wanna be here?
And I believe the day will come
When your whole world comes crashing down
It’s gonna come down
It’s gonna come down
Just let it out Just let it out, Oh let it out
I Can't Believe It
I wait patiently for my turn to come
I watch you go through everyone
You are touching her and I’m hating you
Can you feel me? Can you feel me? Can you feel my hurt?
Sometimes I get mad
But most days I just put on a mask
I give you every chance to make your move
How much more obvious do i have to be
I can’t believe it I can’t believe it
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
I can’t believe it I can’t believe it
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
Sometimes I get mad
But most days I just feel so very sad
I can’t believe it I can’t believe it
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
I can’t believe it I can’t believe it
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
I can’t believe it I can’t believe it
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
I can’t believe it I can’t believe it
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
I can’t believe you lost your nerve
Hopeful Thought
You’re just a hopeful thought
In the back of my head
You’re just a fleeting glimpse of
The man you could be
And I guess your too hard to handle for a girl like me
And I guess it’s too hard for me to wisen up and be free
But it gets hard sometimes
when I think about you
I wanna scream out loud
I wanna scream you’re wrong
Your just a tangled web
Of the lies you lead
You left your mark on me boy
And all of my things
I guess your too dumb to notice we all know you’re fake
And I guess I’m too dumb to make you, make you walk that plank
But it gets hard sometimes
when I think about you
I wanna scream out loud
I wanna scream you’re wrong
You made your home in me
I laid a welcome mat
Comfort turned to cold shoulder
Did you really have to walk all over me
So careful with your words
I always came out wrong
Too afraid to make you mad
Now i don’t give a damn about what you have to say
But it gets hard sometimes
when I think about you
I wanna scream out loud
I wanna scream you’re wrong
I wanna scream…
Your’e wrong
I wanna scream
Shoulder Shrug
Oh, It’s hard these days
Slowly down the drain
I pour my pain
Want to jump in after you
But I can’t move
Tear the castle down instead
From my bed
Oh, it’s so hard these days
To find anyway to move on
Oh, it’s so hard these days
To find anyway to move on
Oh it’s so hard these days
To find anyway
Cross my heart and hope to live
Nothing left to give
Sweep the mess under the rug
Like a shoulder shrug
Hold on Me
If you were to find out
If you were to hear
What I’ve been saying about you
You’d probably just run
I tried not to like you
I tried not to care
But what can i say
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
I can’t stop thinking about you
You’re running through my mind
So go ahead and tell your stories
I’ll listen every time
I know we’re not perfect
I know we’re not right
But what can i say?
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
You’re the one I look for
In a crowded room
‘Cause you always know
Just how to me smile
There’s nothing i can say
There’s nothing i can do
I’m falling for you
And only God knows why
‘Cause You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
You’ve got a hold on me
Goodbye
I knew this day would come
I turned to fast i wanted to run
I felt you just a few rows back
And my heart sank again
I should have gone and said hello
I would have put on such a good show
But my eyes just wouldn’t let me go
Can you blame me? Can you blame me?
It’s too late for saying forgive me
It’s too late for smiling and shaking hands
It’s too late for saying I’m sorry
Well, I’m saying goodbye
Goodbye one last time
I used to scan the crowd for you
But now I’m hiding in the back of the room
I feel you stare but i don’t care
I’m not going over, no
It’s too late for saying forgive me
It’s too late for smiling and shaking hands
It’s too late for saying I’m sorry
Well, I’m saying goodbye
Goodbye
I’m sure you think i’m so naive
I’m sure you think I’m such a stupid girl
But did ever think that i could be
Just protecting myself?
I’m protecting myself
t’s too late for saying forgive me
It’s too late for smiling and shaking hands
It’s too late for saying I’m sorry
Well, I’m saying goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye…
Own Worst Enemy
Go write the book on yourself
And tell all your truths
None of of glamours tales you Love to tell
Cause you know no one
Will ever skim your words But you
But you
You live in your own head
Never say too much
One more bottle’s empty and few stolen cigarettes
Everyone’s out to get you when you look there’s no one there but you
But you
But you
Your own worst enemy
Somebody's Love Song
I remember July the heat was unkind
And you pressed your lips to mine
I carelessly thought i was the one
In somebody’s love song
But sometimes i can’t remember your words
I find them hard
To hold on to
I remember that night the rain was so harsh
And you held my hand in yours
I thought we’d last till our dying day
And then we’d go to our grave
But sometimes i can’t remember your words
I find them hard
To hold on to
I remember that time when I called you mine
How could we be so blind
But I was alone and scared of myself
Then you came along and I found out
What love is all about
I remember you there, the way you’d stare
Felt like I was loved
