Vertikals Lyrics

BABY RUN
(WRITTEN BY: ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG)


IT'S TIME TO TALK ABOUT
TIME TO LET IT OUT HOW I FEEL
I GOTTA LOTTA DOUBT
WHAT I THOUGHT I FOUND OUT TO BE REAL
IT DON'T MATTER HOW MUCH I HURT YOU
NO, IT DON'T MATTER THAT YOU HURT ME TOO

CHORUS
BABY RUN, BABY RUN
BACK INTO MY ARMS AGAIN
BABY RUN, BABY RUN
BACK INTO MY HEART
BABY RUN, BABY RUN
BACK INTO MY ARMS. BACK INTO MY HEART.

NOW THERE'S A CHANCE I TOOK
AND THERES A CHANCE YOU WERE TAKIN TOO
IN CIRCUMSTANCES BOOK
THERES A PAGE ABOUT ME + YOU
ALTHOUGH WE KNOW THAT OUR STORY'S OVER
THERE'S STILL AN ENDING THAT I NEVER TOLD YA

CHORUS:

IF I COULD DREAM OF OUR LIFE ALL OVER
I'DE BE REDEEMIN' WHAT WE LOST & HOLD YA

CHORUS:

"REVELATION I"
(WRITTEN BY: ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG)

EVERYBODY LIVIN LIFE WITH BLINDED EYES
SOON THEY REALIZE THEY HAVE NO SIGHT
THE SPELL OF EVERYDAY LIFE IT FOOLS THEIR MINDS
SOON THEIR QUESTIONS RISE
THE ANSWERS LIE - BETWEEN THE LINES

CHORUS:
REVELATION - OPEN YOUR EYES
A RE-EVALUATION - BETWEEN THE LINES
REVELATION - CAN OPEN YOUR EYES
TO SEE THE LIGHT - OOOH WAAH

EVERYBODY WALKIN' ROUND IN SUCH A DAZE
WHILE TRUTH'S A BLAZE. I'M SO AMAZED
WHEN MIRACLES APPEAR IN BLINDING LIGHT
SHINING CRYSTAL LIGHT ON WHAT IS RIGHT, BEFORE OUR EYES

CHORUS:
REVELATION - OPEN YOUR EYES
IT'S ALL ABOUT CREATION - BETWEEN THE LINES
REVELATION - CAN OPEN YOUR EYES
TO SEE THE LIGHT - OOOH WAAAAH

REVELATION II
"WOULD YOU LIE ?"
(WRITTEN BY: ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG)

IF HE TOLD YOU THAT HE LOVED YA
BUT HE SAID HE LOVED ME TOO
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?
IF HE TOLD YA BOUT ACCEPTANCE
BUT YOU KNOW YOU GOTTA CHOOSE
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?
IF HE TOLD YOU BOUT' COMPASSION
BEYOND WHAT YOU DO
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?
AND IF THE COCK CROWED TWICE
AND YOU WERE ASKED TO TELL THE TRUTH
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?

WOULD YOU GO AND HIDE YOUR FACE
ON THE DAY HE COMES TO CALL?
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?
WOULD YOU FROWN AND TURN YOUR SHOULDER
CAUSE YOU COULDN'T STAND TALL?
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?
CAN YOU SEE A CONTRADICTION
IN WHAT YOU SAY & WHAT YOU DO?
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?
WELL I DON'T CAIM TO KNOW NOTHIN'
CAN YOU SAY THE SAME TOO?
WOULD YOU LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?

BRIDGE: WE ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WE WERE CHOSEN
NOT LIKE THE OTHER GUY
NOW OUR HEARTS ARE TORN & FROZEN
SHAKEN' BY THE LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE?

RAP: YOU TAKE YOUR LIFE IN YOUR HANDS
WHEN YOU'RE OUT ON THE STREET
AND YOU'RE TAKEN A CHANCE WITH THE PEOPLE YOU MEET
ARE YOU LIVIN'?
WHEN THERE'S A HOLE IN YOUR TOWN
AND IT'S TUMBLING DOWN
LIKE THE HOLE IN YOUR HEART
NOW ITS TIME TO START WITH SOME GIVIN'

DO YOU THINK HATE LEADS TO HEAVEN?
WELL YOU KNOW THAT IT'S A LIE
DO YOU THINK THAT GOD'S A WEAPON?
WELL YOU KNOW THAT IT'S A LIE
DO YOU THINK THE WORLD FORGIVES YOU?
WELL YOU KNOW THAT IT'S A LIE
LIE, LIE, LIE, LIE!!

"YOUR THERE"
(WRITTEN BY ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG)


DAYS ARE LONG & THE NIGHTS ARE LONGER
I PRAY ALONE FOR SOME guidance home
TO KEEP ME STRONGER
MEMORIES OF MY faults & FAILINGS
STORMY SEAS and THOSE HAUNTING WINDS
THAT KEEP PREVAILING

CHORUS:

YOUR THERE -
OOH BABY YOUR THERE (REPEAT)

I SEE A FACE IN THIS DREAM REPEATING
I HEAR YOUR BREATH, I CAN FEEL YOUR HEART
SOFTLY BEATING
FROM THE DEEP AS I SLOWLY WAKEN'
WISHING I COULD AGAIN PRETEND
I'M NOT FOR SAKIN'

CHORUS:

SOLO:

LAST CHORUS:

YOUR THERE - OOH BABY YOUR THERE
CAN YOU HEAR MY PRAYER FOR YOU?
FROM LONG AGO WHEN I CARED FOR YOU?

FROM THE STILL OF MY DREAMS AT NIGHT
CAN YOU HEAR ME FROM THE SHINING LIGHT?

FROM A QUIET VOICE INSIDE
CAN YOU HEAR ME AS I CALL TONIGHT?

I CAN SEE YOU SMILIN NOW
CAN YOU HEAR ME CRYIN' OUT?
YOUR THERE - OOH BABY YOUR THERE

SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
BY ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG

I LOVE IT WHEN SHE WEARS HER PANTS
A BIT TOO TIGHT, CAUSE I KNOW
WHAT I'M GONNA GET COME SATURDAY NIGHT
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND

I LOVE IT WHEN SHE SAYS NOW DADDY
COME ON HOME
CAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT I'M WANTIN'
WHEN I'M ALL ALONE
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE'S SO CUTE

WELL SHE KNOWS HOW TO LOVE ME LIKE I'LL NEVER FORGET
BUT I KNOW THERE'S SOME STUFF THAT SHE AINT SHOWN ME YET
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND

I LOVE IT WHEN SHE SAYS JUST LET ME
WIPE MY CHIN, AND IF YOU'LL STAY LIKE THAT,
THEN I'LL DO IT AGAIN
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE'S SO CUTE

BRIDGE:
THAT LITTLE GIRLS SHE GOT SOME MAGIC MOMENTS
BUT SHE CONTRIBUTES TO A TRAGIC ROMANCE TOO,
WHEN SHE TAKES A FANCY TO BE CRUEL

WELL COME ON LITTLE SISTER LET'S RUN
INTO THE NIGHT, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON.
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND

WELL NODODY BUGS ME LIKE THE STUFF THAT YOU DO,
BUT NOBODY LOVES ME LIKE THE STUFF THAT YOU USE
SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND

" I KNOW"
(WRITTEN BY: ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG)

SHE'S NO SYNDICATED LOVER
WITH AFFILIAteS ALL OVER TOWN
BUT SOME HOW OR OTHER
SHE WANTS TO MAKE ME HER CROWN

AND THOUGH SHE TURNS UP FACINATION
AND AIMS WITH THE SPELL OF HER EYES
IT'S HARD NOT TO LOVE HER
BUT I KNOW I'M GONNA HAVE TO TRY

CHORUS:

IT'S GONNA HURT, SHE'S GONNA CRY
BUT I'M GONNA HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE
I KNOW IT'S GONNA BREAK HER HEART
I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW
I KNOW ITS GONNA BREAK HER HEART
I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW

SHE'S GOT A SWEET LIPED IMAGINATION
WITH A HEART THAT'S NOTHING BUT KIND
SHE COULD BE SALVATION
BUT I'M NOT GONNA CHANGE MY MIND
SHE'S EVERYTHING SOMEBODY WANTED
BUT SOMEBODY'S JUST NOT ME
AND THOUGH HER HEARTS UNDAUNTED
I KNOW SHE'S GOT TO LET IT BE

CHORUS:

SOLO:

CHORUS - FADE

DRIVE
"BY ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG"

I LIVED THE LIFE DRIVIN' MY CAR
RUNNIN' LIGHTS, HAD IT DOWN
PAINTIN' THE TOWN
PRESSIN' LUCK, A HONKIN' MY HORN
IT NEVER STRUCK, I'M LIVIN' ON LUCK
BUT NEVER BEEN BORN

A CRAZY WHICH-A-WAY AMAZIN'
OUT OF PHAZIN'-WAY IN WHICH TOO DRIVE

I NEVER LOST, NEVER HAD TO A-TONE
NEVER THOUGHT I NEEDED SOMEONE
TO SHOW ME THE ZONE
FINALLY CRASHED, SURVIVING THE BURN
IT'S TIME TO ASK, I'M FEELIN' CONCERNED
I'M READY TO LEARN

THE TIMES MY LIFE IS ALL MESSED UP
I WANNA GIVE UP, I FLIP YOU THE KEYS TOO DRIVE

BRIDGE:
SO IT GOES CRUSIN' & BRUSIN'
NEVER KNOW IF I'M GAININ' OR I'M LOSIN'
NOW I'M RUNNING SO FAR OUTA TIME
WOULD SOMEBODY KINDLY SLOW ME DOWN
TO KNOW YOU?

I GOTTA FRIEND WHOSE DRIVIN' MY CAR
HE LENDS A HAND, I'M IN THE BACK
I'M READIN' THE MAPS
HE DROPS A HINT, HE GIVES ME A CLUE
TO LIFE AHEAD AND ROADS I OTTA BE HEADED TO

THE CRAZY WHICH-A-WAY AMAZIN'
SAVIN' GRACE COMPLETE SURPRISIN' DRIV

IT'S A MATTER OF TIME
(BY: ALQUIST - ARMSTRONG)

IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF STYLE
I KNOW YOUR GONNA ARRIVE
AT THE SCENE OF THE CRIME
AND IT JUST MIGHT TAKE A WHILE
SOME SAY THER'S A TIME AND A SEASON
BUT I KNOW THERE'S A REASON AND RHYME
DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THEY SAY OR BELIEVE IN
BABY BABY I KNOW…

IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
I THINK IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE
WITH NEW DIRECTION IN MIND
I HOPE I CAN REARANGE
THERE WAS A TIME I WAS LOST
YOU KNOW IT FELT KINDA STRANGE
BUT NOW WITH NEW ROADS TO CROSS
I HOPE I'M IN THE RIGHT LANE
I'VE HAD ENOUGH WITH THE SHOUTS AND COMPLAININ'
LAST CHANCE TO GET IT RIGHT ON THE LINE
THE EMPTY BOTTOMLESS LIFE I'VE BEEN LEADIN'
I NEED SOME PEACE OF MIND

SOLO:

TRYIN' TO FIGURE OUT LIFE'S EMOTIONS
ARE WE LIVIN' IN A BATTLEFIELD?
TRY TO LOOK TO YOUR HEART FOR DEVOTION
I THINK WE NEED A NEW DEAL
SOLO:
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
BUT IT TAKES MORE THAN A DAY
IT'S NOT THE END OF THE LINE
IT'S NOT A WORRY OF MINE
I KNOW I'M WELL ON MY WAY
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME………
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME………
