What You Wanted Verse 1: You had it in for me baby right from the start You took all my love & then you broke my heart Chorus: Now you got what you wanted Was it what you wanted? Yeah you got what you wanted Hope it’s what you wanted! If it all comes crashing down on you Just remember it’s what you wanted Verse 2: Now you’re getting all red in the face & you’re losing your cool You took me for granted so I took you to school Chorus: Well you got what you wanted Was it what you wanted? Looks like you got what you wanted Hope it’s what you wanted! If your karma crashes into you Just remember it’s what you wanted Bridge: It’s what you wanted Oh yeah oh yeah What you wanted Exactly what you wanted! Chorus/Out: Well you got what you wanted Was it what you wanted? Yeah you got what you wanted Hope it’s what you wanted! When it all comes crashing down on you Just remember it’s what you wanted It’s what you wanted! It’s what you wanted! It’s what you wanted! Hey you got just what you wanted

Man in the Middle 02:46
lyrics

Man in the Middle Chorus: In the middle of another breakdown Is that a smile or is that a frown? Gotta make it through the day somehow For a man in the middle I don’t know how much I can take A time to build or a time to break? Every road leads to more heartache For a man in the middle Verse: Pick up arms or put them down? I’m melting my swords into plows Gettin' too late to turn back now Grief is love with nowhere to go It’s a riddle with no way to know What’s behind the curve on a winding road For a man in the middle Chorus: In the middle of another breakdown Is that a smile or is that a frown? Gotta make it thru the day somehow For a man in the middle I don’t know how much I can take A time to build or a time to break? Every road leads to more heartache For a man in the middle Bridge: Is there hope hiding in despair? Swinging blind hands up in the air I was lost & you found me right there Chorus: In the middle of another breakdown Is that a smile or is that a frown? Gotta make it thru the day somehow For a man in the middle I don’t know how much I can take A time to build or a time to break? Every road leads to more heartache For a man in the middle In memoriam Capt. Steven C. Taylor - "Pop" (February 09, 1941 - August 17, 2021)

And I Got You Verse 1: Heaven's got angels Planet's got the moon Shower's got April Summer's got June Somebody somewhere put my universe in tune I was all alone and I got you Verse 2: Now the years keep crawling & we just stumble through Life gets angry When baby's got the blues But believe my darling when I said "I do" It was all the truth Bridge: Now I got you & I got proof Our love is on the move It's possible today is a new day And love can make it through cause I got you Verse 3: Cards got faces And forests got the trees The gifts you’ve been handed Ain't always what you see When I crossed that bridge babe I was dancing like a fool I'll sing hallelu - yeah I got you Ba ba da Ba ba da Ba ba da da And I got you!

Wake Up Call   Verse 1: I got my finger on the button & all I gotta do is push To start the chain reaction Don't you wanna feel the rush?

The Heartbroken (Note: Tom Petty died on October 2, 2017 at 8:40pm. I wrote this song for him & made this recording in the garage on my iPhone later that night at 1:00am) Verse 1: Oh tonight when everything is wrong & nothing's right Just looking for a reason to keep fighting Heaven help us find our way Verse 2: And carry on Not so simple when the thrill is gone We just want to hear another song Heaven help us find our way Chorus: Through the woods Through the fields With dreams unspoken and our hearts broken I'll sing for you a hallelu... Just a token for the Heartbroken Verse 3: There's a light you have to close your eyes to see And everything will be as it will be Heaven help us find our way

Everything is Changing 03:32

Everything is Changing Verse1 : Everything is changing And it’s more than I can say Dust to dust it’s meaningless Tomorrow fades away Lift: The house went up in smoke While I was chasing after the wind There's nothing new under the sun again Chorus: Everything is changing Right before your eyes Why are you surprised? Everything is changing It’s all been swept away And maybe that's okay Verse 2: What has been will be forever What’s done is done again We’ll be waiting on eternity For our heavy hearts to mend Lift: The house went down in flames While I was spinning in the wind There’s nothing new under the sun again Chorus: Everything is changing Now my heart is full But it’s time to let it go Everything is changing Broken heart & soul It’s so beautiful Bridge: A sad face is good for the heart Chorus: Everything is changing Right before your eyes Why are you surprised? Everything is changing Broken heart & soul It’s so beautiful

Not My Finest Hour 05:20

Not My Finest Hour Verse 1: With a flick of the switch I could send you away Or with some slight of hand I could make it okay Hmm it’s a son of a bitch when you’ve saved the day I’ll be calling on heaven when there’s hell to pay Chorus: I lost my way Somewhere along the Inner-state I hide my face Like a yellow bellied coward Believe me love it’s not my finest hour Verse 2: I'm breathing the smoke In your maze of grace I should give up the ghost before it all goes to waste I should sing hallelujah I should strike up a dance Trade a little confession for a second chance Chorus: I lost my way With my eyes wide open in the middle of the day I fell from grace when the plans began to sour Believe me love it’s not my finest hour Bridge: I fell down now I'm stuck here in it Lost my heart in a New York minute Pack your bags & hide the cash A heart on fire will turn to ash But heaven hears the prayers of men Who walk the road of suffering Chorus: I lost my way With my eyes wide open in the middle of the day I hide my face Like a yellow bellied coward Believe me love it’s not my finest hour

I Used to Know About Love (Now I'm Just Makin' it Up) Verse 1: I’m helpless I can’t help myself & no one else knows a thing is going on I can’t quit I can’t raise my fist Now I’m used to it The feeling of euphoria is gone Chorus: I used to know about love I used to know now I’m just makin' it up I used to know about love Now I’m just makin' it up Verse 2: I’m crying out but I can’t make a sound Had it figured out Now everything is out of tune It’s useless making promises I won’t waste my breath They’re breaking down & dancing 'round the truth Chorus: I used to know about love I used to know, now I’m just makin' it up I used to know about love Now I’m just makin' it up Bridge: Love oh come away my love How your light burns my eyes! I have no right to see Chorus: I used to know about love I used to know now I’m just makin' it up I used to know about love Now I’m just makin' it up

Too Tired to Argue Verse 1: Can’t tell if I’m a saint or a sinner At the end or a beginner A loser a winner? I’m afraid I might be going out of my mind? That’s why I’m Chorus: Too tired to argue Too weary to cry Too tired to argue So I won't even try Verse 2: It’s getting fuzzy & my head is spinning I just hit the ceiling Take me back to the beginning? Hey baby can’t we just call it a night? Cause y’know I’m Chorus: Too tired to argue Too weary to cry Too tired to argue So I won't even try
