This’ll Be My Year Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In '85, Tuesday morning
Came alive, I didn't know ya
Route 66 is gone
Reagan's here, it won't be long
Nintendo comes, Live Aid, too
Back to the Future, where were you
While I spent all my days in Catholic school?
In '89, the dream begins
First in line to California
Pete Rose is banned for good
The Simpsons come to Hollywood
Russia leaves Afghanistan, Flight 103 ends Pan Am
Bush is here, this is the year
That I feel most alone
[Chorus]
No more
Countin' down the hours
No more
Wishin' you were here
I stopped believin', although Journey told me don't
Before I call it a day
Maybe this'll be my year
[Post-Chorus]
Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year
[Verse 2]
In '92, a boy is born
The skies were blue in Ohio
Boris Yeltsin chills
Freddie dies, but Queen is still
Barcelona has the games
Lady Di is single again
Clinton wins, and I still dream
That I'll find you someday
In '97, a baby girl
Adds some heaven to the world
Tony Blair tips the scales
Elton sings for the Princess of Wales
Microsoft buys into Mac
My dad has a second heart attack
And Train leaves San Francisco
In a thousand-dollar van
[Chorus]
No more
Countin' down the hours
No more
Wishin' you were here
I stopped believin', although Journey told me don't
Before I call it a day
Maybe this'll be my year
[Post-Chorus]
Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year
[Verse 3]
2001, the towers fell
The world is stunned, I wish I knew ya
I was on a plane, the world would never be the same
The artificial heart is born
Ironic when New York's is torn out, woah
2004, began in May
On tour when I met ya
Facebook joins the Internet
Oldsmobile joins the cassette
I met your family
It took a while 'til you kissed me
But when you did, I finally felt at home
[Chorus]
I stopped believin', although Journey told me don't
Before I call it a day
Maybe this'll be my year
[Post-Chorus]
Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year
[Outro]
2012, and all I know
Is everybody comes and goes
Everybody sings and cries
Makes the grade and takes the prize
In something, nothing, I don't care
Because I always know that you'll be here
With me
Bruises Lyrics
[Verse 1: Patrick Monahan & Ashley Monroe]
Haven't seen you since high school
Good to see you're still beautiful
Gravity hasn't started to pull
Quite yet, I bet you're rich as hell
One that's five and one that's three
Been two years since he left me
Good to know that you got free
That town I know was keeping you down on your knees
[Chorus: Patrick Monahan & Ashley Monroe]
These bruises make for better conversation
Loses the vibe that separates
It's good to let you in again
You're not alone in how you've been
Everybody loses, we all got bruises
We all got bruises
[Verse 2: Patrick Monahan & Ashley Monroe, Both]
Have you seen him? Not in years
How about her? No, but I hear
She's in Queens with the man of her dreams
Funny back then she said that about you
Que sera, you'll never guess who I saw
Remember Johnny B?
Remember him, we were best friends practically
Let's do this soon again, ten years is that what it's been?
Can't believe how time flies by
Leaving you makes me wanna cry
[Chorus: Patrick Monahan & Ashley Monroe]
These bruises make for better conversation
Loses the vibe that separates
It's good to let you in again
You're not alone in how you've been
Everybody loses, we all got bruises
We all got bruises
[Bridge: Patrick Monahan & Ashley Monroe, Both]
I would love to fix it all for you
I would love to fix you too
Please don't fix a thing whatever you do
[Breakdown: Patrick Monahan]
These bruises make for better conversation
Loses the vibe that separates
It's good to know you've got a friend
But you remember now and then
Everybody loses
[Chorus: Patrick Monahan & Ashley Monroe, Both]
These bruises make for better conversation
Loses the vibe that separates
It's good to let you in again
You're not alone in how you've been
Everybody loses
Everybody loses
Everybody loses
We all got bruises
We all got bruises
We all got bruises
50 Ways to Say Goodbye Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My heart is paralyzed
My head was oversized
I'll take the high road like I should
You said it's meant to be
That it's not you, it's me
You're leaving now for my own good
[Pre-Chorus]
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are, I'm gonna say
[Chorus 1]
She went down in an airplane
Fried getting suntanned
Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She met a shark under water
Fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
[Verse 2]
My pride still feels the sting
You were my everything
Some day I'll find a love like yours (a love like yours)
She'll think I'm Superman
Not super minivan
How could you leave on Yom Kippur?
[Pre-Chorus]
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are, I'm gonna say
[Chorus 2]
She was caught in a mudslide
Eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She dried up in the desert
Drowned in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east side night club
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
[Bridge]
I wanna live a thousand lives with you
I wanna be the one you're dying to love
But you don't want to
[Pre-Chorus]
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are, I'm gonna say
That's cool, but if my friends ask where you are, I'm gonna say
[Chorus 1]
She went down in an airplane
Fried getting suntanned
Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She met a shark under water
Fell and no one caught her
I returned everything I ever bought her
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
[Chorus 2]
She was caught in a mudslide
Eaten by a lion
Got run over by a crappy purple Scion
Help me, help me, I'm no good at goodbyes
She dried up in the desert
Drowned in a hot tub
Danced to death at an east side night club
Help me, help me, I'm all out of lies
And ways to say you died
You Can Finally Meet My Mom Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't cry when I die
When it's my time, I probably won't die
I'll just lie down and close my eyes
And think about stuff
These eyes got too wide
Seeing too much of life's goodbyes
Should have spent less time making loot
Spent more time in my birthday suit with you
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And everybody upstairs
Everybody downstairs
I'm not gonna have time to hang out with them
[Chorus 1]
'Cause I'll be hanging out with you
Not Jimi Hendrix, Jesus, or the dude
Who played the sheriff in Blazing Saddles
You, not Chris Farley, Mister Rogers
Oh, I've waited so long
You can finally meet my mom
[Verse 2]
Life is good, but love it's better
Even Bieber ain't forever
We all got to go you know
So you might as well go in style
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Everybody praying
Everybody singing
I'm not gonna have time to hang out with them
[Chorus 2]
'Cause I'll be hanging out with you
Not Gilda Radner, Buddha, or the dude
Who had Pop Rocks and soda at the same time
You, not Jesse James, Paul Newman
Oh, I've waited so long
You can finally meet my mom
[Bridge]
I'm not making light of things
But who's to say who's right with things like this?
There's so much that we miss
Trying so hard to be rich and famous
Pretty and thin to win
It's a shame that youth is wasted on the young
[Pre-Chorus 3]
So forget everything
And just be with me here now
For as long as we can
And whoever goes first save a spot
[Chorus 3]
You, not Etta James, Bob Marley
Or the girls who won my heart along the way
You, not Sitting Bull, Ella or Bach
And I almost forgot
You can finally meet my mom
(You can finally meet my mom)
You can finally meet my mom
(You can finally meet my mom)
(You can finally meet my mom)
[Verse 4]
No Steve Jobs or Ty Cobbs
Al Capone or any other mobs
No Whitney Houston, no Chet Baker
André the Giant or the Undertaker, just you
[Outro]
You can finally meet my mom
You can finally meet my mom
You can finally meet my mom
You can finally meet my mom
You can finally meet my mom
You can finally meet my mom
Sing Together Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I go before I say
To everyone in my ballet
Let me take this chance
To thank you for the dance
If I run out of songs to sing
To take your mind off everything
Just smile, sit a while
[Pre-Chorus]
With the sun on your face and remember the place we met
Take a breath, and soon, I bet you'll see
Without you, I would never be me
You are the leaves of my family tree
[Chorus]
Sing together
If you knew me from the very start
Or we met last week at the grocery mart
Just sing together
It's the least that I can do
My final gift to you
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
When I'm past the pearly gate
I will find some real estate
We can settle down
And watch the world go 'round
We'll send down all the love we got
Let them know we got a spot
For them to be and it's all free
[Pre-Chorus]
With the sun on your face and remember the place we met
Take a breath, and soon, I bet you'll see
Without you, I would never be me
You are the leaves of my family tree
[Chorus]
Sing together
If you knew me from the very start
Or not at all, you're still a part
Just sing together
It's the least that I can do
My final gift to you
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Mermaid Lyrics
[Intro]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1]
Can’t swim, so I took a boat
To an island so remote
Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before
Stayed there 'til the air was clear
I was bored and out of tears
Then I saw you washed up on the shore
I offered you my coat
Thank Goddess love can float
Crazy how that shipwreck meant my ship was coming in
We talked 'til the sun went down
Love on the Puget Sound
My treasure map was on your skin
[Chorus]
Beauty in the water
Angel on the beach
Ocean’s daughter
I thought love was out of reach
'Til I got her
Had I known it could come true
I would have wished in ’92
For a mermaid just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Sharks green with envy
They wonder what you see in me
Funny but sometimes can’t help but wonder that as well
Now life is a holiday
Making up for the years I paid
The way to this heavenly bay, it went through hell
[Chorus]
Beauty in the water
Angel on the beach
Ocean’s daughter
I thought love was out of reach
'Til I got her
Had I known it could come true
I would have wished in ’92
For a mermaid just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
[Bridge]
Rescued you by the banyan tree
All the girlfish in the sea
Couldn't hold a candle to you, they don’t have a handle on you
They don’t have a scandal on you, I love Ecco sandals on you
Saving me was B-I-G
All the boyfish in the sea
They all wish that they could be me
[Breakdown]
Can’t swim so I took a boat
To an island so remote
Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before
[Chorus]
Beauty in the water
Angel on the beach
Ocean’s daughter
I thought love was out of reach
'Til I got her
Had I known it could come true
I would have wished in ’92
For a mermaid just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
[Outro]
Just like you (Rescued you by the banyan tree)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh) (All the girlfish in the sea)
Just like you
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
We Were Made for This Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up on Angel Island in your arms
To the smell of burning bridges
And the sound of those alarms in my head
We should have stayed in bed
But we held them up for ransom anyway
When the coldest days of winter
Were the summers that we took aim at the Bay
And grateful wasn't dead
[Hook 1]
And like your lips were only made for me to kiss
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were made for this
[Verse 2]
While the girls all danced beneath a Burning Man
And The Last Waltz did somersaults
To finish off The Band where they began
In a wonder Winterland
All we ever wanted was to be alone
Learning how to fly to Sly
Trying to find home
Underneath the Family Stone
[Hook 2]
And just like New Year's Day was made to reminisce
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were made for this
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Love and stardust settle on us like a net
While Buckley's "Hallelujah" fills our ears from your cassette
While my heart stops beating
And you stop breathing, Juliette
[Hook 3]
You're the only thing I'm ever gonna miss
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were made for this
This’ll Be My Year (live From San Francisco) Lyrics

In '85, Tuesday morning

Route 66 is gone
Reagan's here, it won't be long
Nintendo comes, Live Aid, too
Back to the Future, where were you
While I spent all my days in Catholic school?
In '89, the dream begins
First in line to California
Pete Rose is banned for good
The Simpsons come to Hollywood
Russia leaves Afghanistan, Flight 103 ends Pan Am
Bush is here, this is the year
That I feel most alone
[Chorus]
No more
Countin' down the hours
No more
Wishin' you were here
I stopped believin', although Journey told me don't
Before I call it a day

Maybe this'll be my year
Maybe this'll be my year

In '92, a boy is born
The skies were blue in Ohio
Boris Yeltsin chills
Freddie dies, but Queen is still
Barcelona has the games
Lady Di is single again
Clinton wins, and I still dream
That I'll find you someday
In '97, a baby girl
Adds some heaven to the world
Tony Blair tips the scales
Elton sings for the Princess of Wales
Microsoft buys into Mac
My dad has a second heart attack
And Train leaves San Francisco
In a thousand-dollar van
[Chorus]
No more
Countin' down the hours
No more
Wishin' you were here
I stopped believin', although Journey told me don't
Before I call it a day

Save Me, San Francisco (live From San Francisco) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I used to love the Tenderloin
'Til I made some tender coin
Then I met some ladies from Marin
We took the highway to the One
Up the coast to catch some sun
They left me with these blisters on my skin
[Verse 2]
Don't know what I was on
But I think it grows in Oregon
So I kept on going, going, gone, right through
I drove into Seattle rain
Fell in love, then missed the train
That could've took me right back home to you
[Chorus]
I've been high, I've been low
I've been "Yes," and I've been "Oh, hell no"
I've been rock 'n' roll and disco
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
Every day's so caffeinated
I wish they were Golden Gated
Fillmore couldn't feel more miles away
So wrap me up, return to sender
Let's forget this five-year bender
Take me to my city by the Bay
[Verse 4]
I never knew all that I had
Now Alcatraz don't sound so bad
At least they'd have a hella fine merlot
If I could wish upon a star
I would hitch a cable car
To the place that I can always call my own
[Chorus]
I've been high, I've been low
I've been "Yes," and I've been "Oh, hell no"
I've been rock 'n' roll and disco
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
I've been up, I've been down
I've been so damn lost since you're not around
I've been reggae and calypso
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
[Bridge]
To tell you the truth
I miss everything, everything
It's a wild, wide, beautiful world
But there's a wide-eyed girl back there
And she means everything, everything
[Chorus]
I've been stop, I've been go
I've been "Yes," and I've been "Oh, hell no"
I've been rock 'n' roll and disco
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
I've been up, I've been down
I've been so damn lost since you're not around
I've been reggae and calypso
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh (Save me, San Francisco)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh-oh
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh (Save me, San Francisco)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, oh-oh
Won't you save me, San Francisco?
