Black and Blue Lyrics
The Call
Spoken:
Hi, it’s me… what’s up baby?
I’m sorry, listen, I’m gonna be late tonight so don’t stay up and wait for me, ok?”
“Where are you?”
“Say that again… you’re really dropping out… I think my battery must be low…
listen, if you can hear me, we’re going to a place nearby alright… gotta go!”
Let me tell you the story ‘bout the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out just to end up in misery
Was about to go home when there she was standing in front of me
I said hi, I got a little place nearby, wanna go?
I should’ve said no, someone’s waiting for me
But I called my girl up and said…
CHORUS:
Listen baby I’m sorry
Just wanna tell you don’t worry
I will be late, don’t stay up and wait for me
Say again… you’re dropping out… my battery is low
Just so you know, we’re going to a place nearby
Gotta go!
Now two years gone, nothing gets won
I can’t take it back, what’s done is done
One of her friends found out that she wasn’t my only one
And it eats me from inside that she’s not by my side
Just because I made that call and lied
CHORUS- repeat
Let me tell you the story ‘bout the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out just to end up in misery
Was about to go home when there she was standing there in front of me
I said hi, I got a little place nearby… gotta go!
CHORUS- repeat
Shape of My Heart
Baby please try to forgive me
Stay here don't put out the glow
Hold me now, don't bother
If every minute it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man that I've become
Oh yeah
Chorus:
Lookin' back on the things I've done
I was trying to be someone
Play my part & kept ya in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart
Sadness is beautiful
Loneliness is tragical
So help me, I can't win this war, oh no
Touch me now, don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become
Chorus
I'm here with my confession
Got nothing to hide no more
I don't know where to start
But to show you the shape of my heart
I'm looking back on things I've done
I never wanna play the same old part
Keep you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart
Chorus x 2
Show you the shape of my heart
Get Another Boyfriend
Let’s talk about one baby
You gotta hear me out
Do you really wanna be the last to know
What it’s all about
Let’s talk about two, you say
He’s the essence of your life
But he’ll eat you up from inside slow
And then he doesn’t wanna know
I’m telling you, he’ll eat you up from inside
And then he doesn’t wanna know
CHORUS:
Listen, I mean it
There’s nothing that he’s worthy of
He’s just another player playing in the name of love
I’ve seen enough, now this must come to an end
Get another boyfriend
Let’s talk about what he’s done
To become your number one
Or was it all the promises of diamonds, pearls and party dresses that turned you on
I’ve seen it before, don’t take anymore
Three, two you’re through for sure
Just go get on with your life
Stop acting like you’ve given up
I’m telling you to go get on with your life
Stop acting like you’ve given up
CHORUS – repeat
Hear me out
You must know
What it’s all about, baby
That he’s just a player in love
This must come to an end
Get another boyfriend
CHORUS – repeat
Shining Star
CHORUS:
You’re my shining star
That is what you are
There is no one like you baby
Angels everywhere
Everytime you’re near
You will always be my baby
Baby when you do the things you do
I wanna be close to you
‘Cause I need to feel your every move, oh
Baby I can never say how much
I need your touch, I can’t get enough
‘Cause you know what to do to turn me on, yeah
CHORUS – repeat
Baby you’re as close as close can get
And baby you know I’d let
Every single part of me be yours, ooh yeah
It doesn’t matter if the phone might ring
‘Cause I won’t hear a thing when I’m in your arms
‘Cause you know what to do to turn me on
CHORUS – repeat
I’ve never been so satisfied
With anything in my entire life
‘Cause you are doing everything so right
Oh, oh baby
I’ve never been so satisfied
With anything in my entire life
‘Cause you are doing everything so right
Oh, oh baby
CHORUS – repeat
You know that I adore you
Wanna be there everyday for you
To satisfy your every needs my baby, baby
You know that I adore you
Wanna be there everyday for you
To satisfy your every needs my baby, baby
CHORUS – repeat
I Promise You (With Everything I Am)
It’s in the silences
The words you never say
I see it in your eyes
Always starts the same way
It seems like everyone we know is breaking up
Does anybody ever stay in love anymore
CHORUS:
I promise you
From the bottom of my heart
I will love you ‘til death do us part
I promise you
As a lover and a friend
I will love you like I’ll never love again
With everything I am
I see you look at me
When you think I’m not aware
You’re searching for clues
Of just how deep my feelings are
How do you prove the sky is blue
The ocean’s wide
All I know is what I feel
When I look into your eyes
CHORUS - repeat
There are no guarantees
That’s what you always say to me
And late at night I feel the tremble in your touch
What I’m trying to say to you
I never said to anyone
CHORUS – repeat
…with everything I am
The Answer to Our Life
You see me sitting here
A smile upon my face
The time has come but you know that it’s not too late
There’s been too many things
Together we have seen
It’s not that hard if we start to believe
And we’re not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So please…
Chorus:
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight we’ll find
The answer to our life
This world is not at ease
We seem to hide the truth
Thinking there’s only so much we can really do
It’s up to you and me
To fix our destiny
The jury’s here, so let’s take the stand
And we’re not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So please…
Chorus-Repeat
So tell me why we have to cry (and not try)
When there’s so many things we can do
To help this troubled world start anew
I need a reason, I need a sign
There’s no turning back, I’m here by your side
Is it today or maybe tonight, we’ll find
The answer to our life
Show me the way
Give me a sign
Tell me the way we fall out of line
Is it today, is it tonight
The answer to our life
CHORUS – repeat
Everyone
We’ve been through days of thunder
Some people said we don’t belong
They try to pull us under
But here we stand together and we’re millions strong
Let’s get on with the show (let’s get started)
Turn the lights down low (turn the lights down low)
You were there from start (you were there)
We know who you are
And this one goes out to…
CHORUS:
Everyone, everyone, everyone
So this one goes out to you
Everyone
We’re standing strong
‘Cause of what you’ve done
And this one goes out to you
We’ve been inside the circus
We took the pleasure with the pain
I guess there’s something about us
Whatever comes around we’ll always stay the same, oh yeah
Let’s get on with the show (oh let’s get started)
Turn the lights down low (turn the lights down low)
You were there from the start (you were there)
We know who you are
We know who you are
CHORUS - repeat
Now we’re minutes away
‘Til it’s time to play
Our heartbeats are rising, they’re letting you in
Time for the show to begin
We, we’re standing strong ‘cause of what you’ve done
This one goes out to you, you, you
You make us feel like we’ve just begun
And this one goes out to you
CHORUS - repeat
More Than That
I can see that you’ve been crying
You can’t hide it with a lie
What’s the use in you denying
That what you have is wrong
I heard him promise you forever
But forever’s come and gone
Baby, he would say whatever
It takes to keep you blind
To the truth between the lines, oh…
CHORUS:
