Michelle Branch Lyrics

Best You Ever lyrics - Michelle Branch

Dearest lover, read this letter

I can't pretend I'm still in love

If my lips could say it better

I'd still be there when you wake up

We used to be for real

But now you make me feel

Like I'll never be enough

You turned me on, then turned me off, oh

I want you to remember me

Every time you scream it's the best you ever

I want you to remember me

In a lucid dream as the best you ever

Oh whoa, oh whoa-oh, oh whoa

I hope you can find someone who will

Satisfy you like I did

Do all the stupid little things that

Never are as obvious

And all the things you miss

I seal 'em with a kiss

But I can't sign sincerely yours

I never was, I've never been

I want you to remember me

Every time you scream it's the best you ever

I want you to remember me

In a lucid dream as the best you ever

Oh whoa, oh whoa-oh, oh whoa

Best you ever

I've been wondering why

I tried so hard to win your love

I'm giving up

I don't wanna waste any more time

So goodbye

I want you to remember me

Every time you scream it's the best you ever

I want you to remember me

In a lucid dream as the best you ever

Oh whoa, oh whoa-oh, oh whoa

I want you to remember me

Best you ever

You're Good lyrics - Michelle Branch

Nobody knows me better

You've got a way

Yeah you know you do

You say it'll be forever

I'm gonna believe 'cause I know it's true

Everybody tells me that you're not enough

They don't understand you like I do

They'll never change their minds because they're not in love, not in love

They'll never know

They're not in love with you

I know the way you feel in the dark

Move in the dark, so slow

You're like a song, I know you by heart

Every part of your soul

And I know you're good

Everybody tells me that you're not enough

They don't understand you like I do

They'll never change their minds because they're not in love, not in love

They'll never know

They're not in love with you

I know the way you feel in the dark

Move in the dark, so slow

You're like a song, I know you by heart

Every part of your soul

And I know you're good

I know the way you feel in the dark

Move in the dark, so slow

You're like a song, I know you by heart

Every part of your soul

I know the way you feel in the dark

You move in the dark, so slow

You're like a song, I know you by heart

Every part of your soul

And I know you're good

Fault Line lyrics - Michelle Branch

I feel safe when we are standing in the wreckage

Are we hopeless pulled in opposite directions

Just when I was thinking that I couldn't be lonely any longer

You start to pull me under when I try to keep my head above the water

Tremble and shake

We can't rewrite all our mistakes

Lovers on a fault line

The things we say

When we're both right

We ricochet, lovers on a fault line

And we both know

You and I will never change

But we're holding on until we feel it break

It's too late to be the first to walk away

When we're lovers on a fault line

You kissed me too hard

I thought you had the best intentions

You took it too far

Always desperate for attention

Just when I was thinking that I couldn't be lonely any longer

You start to pull me under when I try to keep my head above the water

Tremble and shake

We can't rewrite all our mistakes

Lovers on a fault line

The things we say

When we're both right

We ricochet, lovers on a fault line

And we both know

You and I will never change

But we're holding on until we feel it break

It's too late to be the first to walk away

When we're lovers on a fault line

I'm scared that I am drowning in an open sea

You're standing on the shore not even noticing

Just when I was thinking that I couldn't be lonely any longer

Tremble and shake

We can't rewrite all our mistakes

Lovers on a fault line

The things we say

When we're both right

We ricochet, lovers on a fault line

And we both know

You and I will never change

But we're holding on until we feel it break

It's too late to be the first to walk away

When we're lovers on a fault line

I feel safe when we are standing in the wreckage

Heartbreak Now lyrics - Michelle Branch

You're my one obsession

You're my daydream in the afternoon

It's my great depression

I love knowing that I can't have you, oh

The things I should be running from

I never seem to get enough

Ready for the heartbreak now

Got me spinning out of control

And I'm haunted by the way that I want you

Cause you can't help who you love

I'm lonely all over again

Lonely all over again

No, you can't help who you love

Opposite attraction

Pull me like a magnet into you

Cause a chain reaction

Hold me down so I can't make a move, woah

The things I should be running from

I never seem to get enough

Ready for the heartbreak now

Got me spinning out of control

And I'm haunted by the way that I want you

Cause you can't help who you love

I'm lonely all over again

Lonely all over again

No, you can't help who you love

Only you know how to set me off

I never seem to get enough

Ready for the heartbreak now

Got me spinning out of control

And I'm haunted by the way that I want you

Cause you can't help who you love

I'm lonely all over again

Lonely all over again

No, you can't help who you love

Woah, no you can't help who you love

No, you can't help who you love

Hopeless Romantic lyrics - Michelle Branch

Cause I'm a hopeless romantic

When I should run for my life

You got me on my knees, you got me crawling

But love is always better when you're falling

Everything is dangerous when it's just the two of us

Jumping in over our heads

Never satisfied

I never wanna close my eyes

Now I can sleep at night

But I'm never sleeping

Cause I'm a hopeless romantic

When I should run for my life

Honey, I don't understand it

Cause it's magic, but it's tragic

I know you're gonna eat me alive

You're gonna eat me alive

Underneath the sheets I feel so wanted

You're the mystery that I am solving

Everything is dangerous when it's just the two of us

Jumping in over our heads

Now I toss and turn

Now I only toss and turn

When will I ever learn?

Boy, I never listen

Cause I'm a hopeless romantic

When I should run for my life

Honey, I don't understand it

Cause it's magic, but it's tragic

I know you're gonna eat me alive

You're gonna eat me alive

Cause I'm a hopeless romantic

When I should run for my life

Honey, I don't understand it

Cause it's magic, but it's tragic

I know you're gonna eat me alive

You're gonna eat me alive

Living A Lie lyrics - Michelle Branch

People tell you what you want

They tell you what you want to hear

You better get your story straight

You better get your answer clear

You're such a simple boy

You threw it all away

You're just a big mistake

I wanna tell you to your face

Honey you're high

Been begging all night

You've done it before

Now you blame it on me

I'm losing my sleep

Can't take it no more

'Cause you're living in a lie

Everyone will realize

That you're living in a lie

Even when you close your eyes

But you do it to yourself

You only do it to yourself

Running off your dirty mouth

Showing off your dirty ways

Stupid little girl

This isn't all a game

Look me in the eye

Say it to my face

Honey you're high

Been begging all night

You've done it before

Now you blame it on me

I'm losing my sleep

Can't take it no more

'Cause you're living in a lie

Everyone will realize

That you're living in a lie

Even when you close your eyes

'Cause people tell you what you want

'Cause you're living in a lie

You can break

You can shake

You can say what you want

Watch me walk away, walk away

'Cause you're living in a lie

Everyone will realize

That you're living in a lie

Even when you close your eyes

'Cause people tell you what you want

'Cause you're living in a lie

Knock Yourself Out lyrics - Michelle Branch

Here we are, we are waiting for life to begin

And I'm just so bored of innocence

And everyone is busy making plans

Go ahead, knock yourself out

I'm heading out of here to who knows where

Maybe I'll write a song and someone will listen

Is that enough to make me happy?

Well, I won't know until I get there

I keep talking, but no one listens

And I keep hearing things that I can't understand

And I see beauty in resistance

And I'm just trying to figure out who I am

I'm just trying to figure out who I am

In the dark I can feel the weight of the world

Pushing down on top of my shoulders

You think you're strong enough to carry it all?

Go ahead, knock yourself out

I keep talking, but no one listens

And I keep hearing things that I can't understand

And I see beauty in resistance

And I'm just trying to figure out who I am

I'm just trying to figure out who I am

I hope all that I've learned will make sense

When I get there

I hope all that I've learned will make sense

When I get there

I keep talking, but no one listens

And I keep hearing things that I can't understand

And I see beauty in resistance

And I'm just trying to figure out who I am

I'm just trying to figure out who I am

And I hope all that I've learned will make sense

When I get there

Temporary Feeling lyrics - Michelle Branch

Strange how a stranger knows you better

Than you ever knew yourself

You're a lover and a dancer

But you need somebody else

Now you're taking off your clothes

I bet you never fell this fast before

And I'm just seeing where this goes

It's just a temporary feeling

I'm gonna have to let you go

I'm gonna love you like I mean it

And I don't need to take it slow

It's just a temporary feeling

So I don't need to take it slow

Strange how sincerely we can lead each

Other into something deep

For a minute we're both in it

It's so mutual how we deceive

Now you're taking off my clothes

And I've never felt like this before

You're just seeing where this goes

It's just a temporary feeling

I'm gonna have to let you go

I'm gonna love you like I mean it

So I don't need to take it slow

You think it's only physical

Until we make it chemical

Guess we're not immune to love

When it's just the two of us

It's just a temporary feeling

I'm gonna have to let you go

I'm gonna love you like I mean it

So I need to take it slow

It's just a temporary feeling

And I don't need to take it slow

Carry Me Home lyrics - Michelle Branch

Running into you is the strangest thing

I never noticed how you look at me

I feel so funny asking "how you've been?"

I hear you're living in the city

Growing up is really make believe

They never told us 1983

These 16mm memories

And got us falling in slow motion

You make me feel like I've had too much to drink

The room is spinning and I trip on my feet

I'm seeing double, saying things I don't mean

Just had a taste, I'm already wasted

And if I need you, would you carry me home?

You know I don't really care where we go

And in the morning, under sheets and shadows

I think I love you, but what do I know?

You make me feel like I've had too much to drink

The room is spinning and I trip on my feet

I'm seeing double, saying things I don't mean

Just had a taste, I'm already wasted

And if I need you, would you carry me home?

You know I don't really care where we go

And in the morning, under sheets and shadows

I think I love you, but what do I know?

And I've been sitting second guessing all alone

I guess you know you'll never find it if you want it

And you've been standing right in front all along

Yeah, you've been standing right in front of me all along

And if I need you, would you carry me home?

You know I don't really care where we go

And in the morning under sheets and shadows

I think I love you

And if I need you, would you carry me home?

You know I don't really care where we go

And in the morning under sheets and shadows

I think I love you, what the hell do I know?

Carry me, carry me

Carry me, carry me home

Not A Love Song lyrics - Michelle Branch

You were my first ever

I wish we'd never met

You drink to feel better

I'm drinking to forget

My heart is hungover

Roll over in my bed

I need something stronger

So I can breathe again

Remember when you said, "Together, forever?"

Whatever

You're not even good enough for a love song

You're just somebody that I wasted my youth on

Turn up the radio, I wanna let you know, oh

This isn't your love song

Oh oh no

This isn't your love song

Oh oh oh

Said this isn't your love song

I'm not bitter

I'm not sorry

I'm not even heartbroken

Cause I knew when we started

That it would have to end

Remember when you said, "Together, forever?"

Whatever

You're not even good enough for a love song

You're just somebody that I wasted my youth on

Turn up the radio I wanna let you know, oh

This isn't your love song

Oh oh no

This isn't your love song

Oh oh oh

Said this isn't your love song

Long nights, cheap wine

I cry but never about you

It's slurred but I've got the last word

Long nights, more wine

I lied, I do think about you

It hurts, but I've got the last word

You're not even good enough for a love song

You're just somebody that I wasted my youth on

Turn up the radio, I wanna let you know, oh

This isn't your love song

Oh oh

No, this isn't your love song

Oh, here we come now, for a love song

You're just somebody that I wasted my youth on

Turn up the radio, I wanna let you know, oh

This isn't your love song

Oh oh oh

No, this isn't your love song

I said no, this isn't your love song

Yeah, this isn't your love song

Last Night lyrics - Michelle Branch

Tell me where it hurts and I'll fix you up

If I am yours then say you're mine

I'll do anything that you ask me

For you I'd die

My heart cries out

I can't live without you

I can't go on without you

So scream out loud

Say that you want me

The way I want you

We're gonna live like it's the last night

We're gonna light up on the night sky

We're gonna love like its the last time

(Don't you know it feels like)

We're gonna live like it's the last night

We're gonna light up on the night sky

We're gonna love like its the last time

(Don't you know it feels like)

It makes a body cold when you're lonely

To want someone so much you cry

Crawl on hands and knees for you baby

I'd even lie

My heart cries out

I can't live without you

I can't go on without you

So scream out loud

Say that you want me

The way I want you

We're gonna live like it's the last night

We're gonna light up on the night sky

We're gonna love like its the last time

(Don't you know it feels like)

We're gonna live like it's the last night

We're gonna light up on the night sky

We're gonna love like its the last time

(Don't you know it feels like)

I wonder where you go when you close your eyes

It drives me crazy 'cause I'll never know

And I just wanna feel how you feel inside

Inside

We're gonna live like it's the last night

We're gonna light up on the night sky

We're gonna love like its the last time

(Don't you know it feels like)

We're gonna live like it's the last night

We're gonna light up on the night sky

We're gonna love like its the last time

Bad Side lyrics - Michelle Branch

I can't help myself

I never learn

You put me through hell

But I like the burn

I turn my love into electricity

So you can feel how it feels inside of me

When we get low

We get high

Let your demons play with mine

When it feels like it's wrong

Then it's right

You tell yourself a lie

And believe it every time

'Cause I like the bad, like the bad side of you

I put my breath

Into the breeze

I send it to you

Over the seas

And I'm haunting you

While you're asleep

Making you dream only of me

When we get low

We get high

Let your demons play with mine

When it feels like it's wrong

Then it's right

You tell yourself a lie

And believe it every time

'Cause I like the bad, like the bad side of you

You feel warmer than a gun

Pointed right at me

Heavy like the drums

'Cause we define insanity

Slowly going numb from staring at the sun

'Cause when we get low

We get high

Let your demons play with mine

When it feels like it's wrong

Then it's right

You tell yourself a lie

And believe it every time

Baby, it's not good when I'm with you

I put up with the hell you drag me through

I'll do anything you want me to

Because I like the bad inside of you

'Cause I like the bad, like the bad side of you

Shadow lyrics - Michelle Branch

I should have known

I saw the look on your face

You're a book and I have memorized every page

You can say what you want

Cry on my shoulder

You're telling lies to yourself

Over and over

Because the night is just Earth's shadow falling on you

No matter how you turn it 'round inside your head

Because the night is just Earth's shadow falling on you

So don't be scared

Look how the stars are suspended in space

You can try to explain as you're losing your faith

And you can search all you want

Find all the answers

You fell in love with a girl

That's all that matters

Because the night is just Earth's shadow falling on you

No matter how you turn it 'round inside your head

Because the night is just Earth's shadow falling on you

So don't be scared

And now I know I've been here before

I'm sure we've been wanting more

I know its déjà-vu for sure

I know

Because the night is just Earth's shadow falling on you

No matter how you turn it 'round inside your head

Because the night is just Earth's shadow falling on you

So don't be scared

City lyrics - Michelle Branch

I don't know what it is about this city

Every road I walk down I discover

Little pieces I thought I never had in me

I never had in me

I guess you knew it all along

That somewhere down the darkest alley is a heartbeat

Is a heartbeat

You remind me

And I swear that I am walking through a daydream

Hear your heartbeat

That's where you're gonna find me

Every shape and transatlantic color wrap around me

I've discovered that I just want to get as far as I can run to From the sun in California

I don't know how the west is ever gonna win me

Once I'm breathing in the water

I'm gonna drown out every sentimental memory

Find the courage to start over

Oh I know there's got to be a reason

'Cause I'm always running from my life

They say, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions"

But I don't know what it is about this city

Miles away someone I know is sleeping

In a bedroom by the window

I guess I've always been afraid that I would miss out

And get blown out like a candle

And I don't know what it is about this city

Every road I walk down I discover

Little pieces I thought I never had in me

I never had in me

And it's raining here in London

Oh I know there's got to be a reason

'Cause I'm always running from my life

They say, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions"

But I don't know what it is about this city

Creep lyrics - Michelle Branch

(originally by Radiohead)

When you were here before

Couldn't look you in the eye

You're just like an angel

Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather

In a beautiful world

I wish I was special

You're so very special

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doin' here?

I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts

I wanna have control

I want a perfect body

I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice

When I'm not around

You're so very special

I wish I was special

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doin' here?

I don't belong here, oh, oh

She's running for the door

Running for the door

Oh oh

She's running for the door

Running for the door

Oh oh

Whatever makes you happy

Whatever you want

You're so very special

I wish I was special

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doin' here?

I don't belong here

Here We Go Again lyrics - Michelle Branch

I was all alone

Yeah I was on my own

I didn't need anyone

Yeah I was in control

I thought I knew it all

I thought I had it good

You know that nothing turned out

The way I thought it would

Always amazes me

Love is a mystery

How I kept singing along

To my own melody

And now I can't believe

You're standing next to me

And when I look in your eyes

I hear a symphony

My heart starts beating loud

Can you feel it

There's just no stopping it now

Here we go again

My head keeps spinning around

From the feeling

You give me something I need

I think I'm falling

And I can't hold back

From the feeling

And I know it'll never end

I know tonight

The stars will shine for you

Here we go again

I wonder can you tell

Cause I can't really hide

All of these feelings I have

Way down deep inside

You're washing over me

It's like you hold the key

And now you've opened this book

Filled in with poetry

Sometimes I can't believe

That you're here with me

And when I look your eyes

I can barely breathe

My heart starts beating loud

Can you feel it

There's just no stopping it now

Here we go again

My head keeps spinning around

From the feeling

You give me something I need

I think I'm falling

And I can't hold back

What I'm feeling

And I know it'll never end

I know tonight

The stars will shine for you

Here we go again

Again, again, again

Here we go again

Again, again, again

Here we go

Don't keep me waiting now...

And now I can't believe

You're standing next to me

And when I look in your eyes

I hear a symphony, yeah!

My heart starts beating loud

Can you feel it

There's just no stopping it now

Here we go again

My head keeps spinning around

From the feeling

You give me something I need

I think I'm falling

And I can't hold back

What I'm feeling

And I know it'll never end

I know tonight

The stars will shine for you

Here we go again

Again, again, again

Here we go again

Again, again, again

Here we go

I know tonight

The stars will shine for you

Here we go again

And now I can't believe

That you're here with me

And when I look in your eyes

I hear a symphony

Hold My Heart lyrics - Michelle Branch

Do you believe in love at first sight

I know it's true now, 'cause it happened that night

But now, you slip away

Don't believe me, when I say

When you hold my hand, you hold my heart

But lately, we still drift apart

When I say I love you, I mean it

I mean it

Do you believe that we're meant to be

I know it's true now, but you just don't see

'Cause now, you get scared

Don't believe me, but it's there

When you hold my hand, you hold my heart

But lately, we still drift apart

When I say I love you, I mean it

I mean it

Please believe me,

When I say

I'll love you 'til the end

Forever and a day

When you hold my hand, you hold my heart

But lately, we still drift apart

When I say I love you, I mean it

I mean it

Not Gonna Follow You Home lyrics - Michelle Branch

I could kiss you right now, fall right into the fire

Forget that stupid talk about movin' on

Sneak out of the crowd and let the flames get higher

No one would even know we're gone, no

But I'm not gonna follow you home

I'm gonna say goodnight, go to sleep with the lights on

All I'm seeing is a big mistake

It's just another sound of the same old heartbreak

And we both know where it goes

So I'm not gonna follow you home

And I know if I stay just a little bit longer

You'd push me right over the edge

It's hard enough to have control

And even harder standing this close

This is as close as it's gonna get

But I'm not gonna follow you home

I'm gonna say goodnight, go to sleep with the lights on

All I'm seeing is a big mistake

It's just another sound of the same old heartbreak

And we both know where it goes

So I'm not gonna follow you home

It would be so easy

Just lettin' you hold me

It would be so easy, baby

But I'm not gonna follow you home

I'm gonna say goodnight, go to sleep with the lights on

The lights on, yeah

Cause all I'm seeing is a big mistake

It's just another sound of the same old heartbreak

And we both know where it goes

So I'm not gonna follow you home

Yeah, I'm not gonna follow you home

Cause all I'm seeing is a big mistake

It's just another sound of the same old heartbreak

And we both know where it goes

I could kiss you right now

Fall right into the fire

Sunset Cigarette lyrics - Michelle Branch

Long ride break lights

Static on the stereo

Pull my hair back, sunglasses

Everything's dusty roads.

I don't know just what it is you want from me

But right now tell me anything and I'll believe

Yeah, you could tell me anything

Hold me up to your lips just to keep me close

Light me up, say that I'm the one you want the most

Whisper words in my ear so I won't forget

Tell me you love me like a sunset cigarette

Dog days, summer haze

Promise that you'll stay in touch

Ooh, but deep down I know

A million ways to mix it up

So won't you kiss me right now even though it kinda hurts

Ooh and if the teardrops don't stop strike a match and let it burn

I kinda like the way it burns

Hold me up to your lips just to keep me close

Light me up, say that I'm the one you want the most

Whisper words in my ear so I won't forget

Tell me you love me like a sunset cigarette, ooh

(Tell me you love me)

Long ride break lights

Static on the stereo

In the back seat falling with my eyes closed

Hold me up to your lips just to keep me close

Light me up, say that I'm the one you want the most

Whisper words in my ear so I won't forget

Tell me you love me like a sunset cigarette, ooh

You know I want you and I can't get out of it

Hold me up to your lips

Baby I love you like a midnight cigarette

Hold me up to your lips

Tell me you love me like a sunset cigarette

Walk Again lyrics - Michelle Branch

(from "Deidra & Laney Rob A Train" soundtrack)

Crashing like a tidal wave

It's the only thing we can't escape

Well love until there's nothing left

Falling is a leap of faith

Where do we run to

Take the chance we could get hurt anyway

Oh oh woah oh

How do we learn to

Oh oh woah oh

Walk again walk again

Oh oh woah oh

Why are we scared to

Oh oh woah oh

Let someone in let someone in

It's written in the sky above

You can't help who you're gonna love

When we try to map the roads we make

Trust in a little twist of fate

Where do we run to

Take the chance we could get hurt anyway

Oh oh woah oh

How do we learn to

Oh oh woah oh

Walk again walk again

Oh oh woah oh

Why are we scared to

Oh oh woah oh

Let someone in let someone in

Oh oh woah oh

How do we learn to

Oh oh woah oh

Walk again walk again

Oh oh woah oh

Why are we scared to

Oh oh woah oh

Let someone in let someone in

There's a chance if we fall

We'll never find our way back again

We could jump, lose it all

Take a risk we could get hurt anyway

Oh oh woah oh

Crashing like a tidal wave

Oh oh woah oh

It's the only thing we can't escape

Oh oh woah oh

Well love until there's nothing left

Oh oh woah oh

Falling is a leap of faith

Oh oh woah oh

How do we learn to

Oh oh woah oh

Walk again walk again

Oh oh woah oh

Why are we scared to

Oh oh woah oh

Let someone in let someone in

Walk again, walk again

Let someone in, someone in

Walk again, walk again

We can learn to walk again

For Dear Life Lyrics – Michelle Branch

When you reach out, I move in
A little premonition on my skin
Can you feel the storm that’s rolling in?
Do you hear a new love whispering?

One moment more and I’m holding onto you
For dear life
And now that I’m sure I am holding onto you
For dear life

A deep blue night comes creeping in
The candlelight is flickering
So used to feeling all alone
Now here comes something I don’t know

One moment more and I’m holding onto you
For dear life
And now that I’m sure I am holding onto you
For dear life

You are everything to me
You’re everything to me

One moment more and I’m holding onto you
For dear life
And now that I’m sure I am holding onto you
For dear life

Loud Music Lyrics – Michelle Branch

And now and then I get to wonderin'
What would have happen if we never met
I don't know
You take a drag of your cigarette
And drivin' too fast with some Zeppelin on, oh oh

You know you had me at "cool t-shirt, babe"
I said I wished that I'd seen Hendrix play
You took me home to see your new guitar
Turning it up, shook me all night long

Making loud music
We're making loud music
We're making loud music
You and I
So loud, so (loud)

It was like my life began that day
I still remember what the jukebox started to play
And then we had to take it on the road
Start me up like a rolling stone

Making loud music
We're making loud music
We're making loud music
You and I
So loud, so (loud)

What we got feels so good
Like I'm climbing a stairway to heaven
And it turns me on
When we dial it up all the way to eleven

Making loud music
We're making loud music
We're making loud music
You and I
So loud, so (loud)

Ready To Let You Go Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Well, you walked in and knocked me right out of my seat
How could a pretty little boy make such a fool out of me
Oh, you better run for cover, you better get on your knees
You better think about it then turn around and leave

Oh, I'm ready to let you go
I'm reaching for something that I can't hold
I'm tired of feeling low
I'm getting ready ... to let you go

Well you won't find me cryin' in my drink
I got a little black dress and my toes are painted pink
Oh, my brother said to tell you you're tires look kind of low
My daddy says he knows of a lake where no one goes

I'm ready to let you go
I'm reaching for something that I can't hold
I'm tired of feeling low
I'm getting ready ... to let you go

Maybe someday the truth will set you free
Til that day keep you're lying hands off me

Oh, I'm ready to let you go
I'm reaching for something that I can't hold
I'm tired of feeling low
I'm getting ready
I'm ready to let you go
I'm reaching for something that I can't hold
I'm tired of feeling low
I'm getting ready ... to let you go

Sooner Or Later Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Lipstick pretty face and maybe you'll notice something
Different bout me, different bout me
Yeah, you talk, talk all you want
You pour your heart out
But you never do see, you never do see me
I cant wait around forever for you

Sooner or later
You're gonna come around and you'll be sorry
When you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later you're gonna wish you had me
Yeah, you're gonna wish you had me

Well, she don't do nothing for you
But mess you up
Yeah, she messes you up
I'm your shoulder, I'm the quick drive over
Tryin' to fix your stuff, well I give up
Oo, you'll never see me standin' right in front of you

Sooner or later
You're gonna come around and you'll be sorry
When you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later you're gonna wish you had me
Oo, oo
Oh, you're gonna wish me back so bad, so bad
Oh, but its a little too late for that

Lipstick pretty face and maybe you'll notice something
Different bout me, different bout me

Sooner or later
You're gonna come around and you'll be sorry
When you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later, oh

Sooner or later
You're gonna come around and you'll be sorry
When you figure out
That I was always everything that you needed
Sooner or later
You're gonna wish you had me

Sooner or later, oh
You're gonna wish you had me, yeah
You're gonna wish you had me, oh
You're gonna wish you had me, oh
You're gonna wish you had me

I Want Tears Lyrics – Michelle Branch

How does saying nothin' at all become so loud?
When does the silence settle in?
Nothing's wrong but nothing's right
We hold our breath and close our eyes
Let's get out on that ice, it's wearin' thin

How did we get so low it don't even hurt?
Yeah, why are we so comfortably still?
Here we are pretending that we're doing fine
Just scratching at the surface, just gettin' by
Don't you think it's that time we feel something real?

I want tears, I want rain
If that's what leads me back to you
Even if that means feelin' the pain, that's what we gotta do
Let it fall apart, come on and break my heart
Yeah, break it right in two
'Cause I don't want to smile if that means losin' you
I want tears

The kind that you can't help and you can't hold back
The ones that are waitin', burstin' at the seams
Baby, can't we find the strength to just let go and make a change?
'Cause I need somethin' more to make me believe

I want tears, I want rain
If that's what leads me back to you
Even if that means feelin' the pain, that's what we gotta do
Let it fall apart, come on and break my heart
Yeah, break it right in two
'Cause I don't want to smile if that means losin' you

Remember what we use to have
Baby, don't you want it bad?
Baby, we can get it back

I want tears, I want rain
If that's what leads me back to you
Even if that means feelin' the pain, that's what we gotta do
Let it fall apart, come on and break my heart
Yeah, break it right in two
'Cause I don't want to smile if that means losin' you
I don't want to smile if that means losin' you
I want tears

How does saying nothing at all become so loud?

Crazy Ride Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Goodnight big moon, sweet dreams, baby
If I could have one wish tonight
It would be that you'll always keep
Keep the starlight in your eyes

So one day you'll grow up, one day you'll walk out
In this big world on your own
And there'll be days when your heart will break and
You swear that all your strength is gone

And then you'll find a way to carry on

Heaven knows that it's a crazy ride
It's never perfect all the time
It'll pull you down and send you flying
So baby, hold on tight on this crazy ride

So don't be scared when you're in the darkness
The sun is swallowed by the ground
You'll think it's gone but it's hanging on
It's just on the other side of town

Even when it's lost it can be found

Heaven knows that it's a crazy ride
It's never perfect all the time
It'll pull you down and send you flying
So baby, hold on tight on this crazy ride

Heaven knows that it's a crazy ride
It's never perfect all the time
You know it's just a crazy ride
It's never perfect all the time
It'll pull you down and send you flying
So baby, hold on tight on this crazy ride

Goodnight, big moon, sweet dreams, baby

Summertime Lyrics – Michelle Branch

It's the time of year with things growing wild
Love's found underneath the stars
Kids are playing in the backyard now
Catching fireflies in a jar
I am sitting on my back porch
And I'm wondering where you are
And if you look at the moon like I do
Does it break your heart
Does it break your heart
When you think about me
Do you remember to forget
Summertime

I go back there in my mind
Kissing underneath the moonlight
Discovering things we thought we'd never find
When I was yours and baby you were mine
Summertime

I thought I saw you a couple months ago
At the airport boarding a plane
I couldn't move I didn't know what to do
And you took my breath away
I heard she's wearing a shiny diamond ring
I guess you're finally moving on
I hope you're happy when she's looking up at you
And I know it might be wrong
Yeah it might be wrong
When I think about you I just can't forget
Summertime

I go back there in my mind
Kissing underneath the moonlight
Discovering things we thought we'd never find
When I was yours and baby you were mine
Oh summertime

Summertime
I go back there in my mind
And oh how it gets me everytime

All the flowers growing wild
Kissing underneath the moonlight
Discovering things we thought we'd never find
When I was yours and baby you were mine
Summertime

I am sitting on my backporch
And I'm wondering where you are

Everything Comes And Goes Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Time is going by so fast
And I can't do anything about it
I’ve been holding on so long
It's time that I can do without it

Everything comes and goes
I'm always the last to know
I can see the sun come up another day

You were looking for some fun
And I was asking for a heartache
I should turn my head and run
Or I could learn it all the hard way

Everything comes and goes
I'm always the last to know
I can see the sun come up another day

You should make up your mind
After all of this time, all this time

Everything comes and goes
I'm always the last to know
I can see the sun come up another day
I can see the sun come up another day

"Hotel Paper" (2003)

Are You Happy Now? Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Now, don’t just walk away
Pretending everything’s ok
And you don’t care about me
And I know there’s just no use
When all your lies become your truths and I don’t care... yeah, yeah, yeah

Could you look me in the eye
And tell me that you’re happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?

You took all there was to take,
And left me with an empty plate
And you don’t care about it, yeah.
And I am givin' up this game
I’m leaving you with all the blame cause I don’t care, yeah, yeah yeah,

Could you look me in the eye?
And tell me that you’re happy now, oohh oohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now? yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you really have everything you want?
You can't ever give somethin' you ain't got
You can’t run away from yourself

Could you look me in the eye?
and tell me that you're happy now, yeah, yeah
come on, tell it to my face or have i been replaced,
are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
are you happy now?

Would you look me in the eye?
Could you look me in the eye?
I’ve had all that I can take
I'm not about to break
Cause I’m happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Are you happy now?

Find My Way Back Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I used to get away with so much
Now I can't get away
I even thought that it was simple
To say the things I wanted to say
And you told me everything I wanted to hear
And you sold me
Now I don't know how I should feel
I should know me
And baby, you would think I knew better

[Chorus:]
I'm finding my way back to you
And everything I used to be
And waiting is all that I can do
Until you find your way back to me

What if I said what I was thinking?
What if that says too much?
When everybody's got a reason
I feel like giving up
And you told me, everything I wanted to hear
And you sold me
Now I don't know how I should feel
I should know me
And baby, you would think I knew better

[Chorus:]
I'm finding my way back to you
And everything I used to be
And waiting is all that I can do
Until you find your way back to me

Until you find your way back to me
Oh, Until you find your way back to me

I used to get away with so much

[Chorus:]
I'm finding my way back to you
And everything I used to be
And waiting is all that I can do
Until you find your way back to me

And waitin' is all that I can do
Until you find your way back to me

I used to get away with so much...

Empty Handed Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Here I am take me
It's easier to give in
Some people mistake me
They only hear what they want to hear
If you're losing sleep
Forgive me
I just can't keep pretending

I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't wanna be
The only one who's drowning in their misery
And I'll take that chance 'cause I just wanna breathe
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be
How it's supposed to be

There's a prism by the window
It lets the light leak in
I wish you would let me
You feel the water but do you swim?
And it's only me empty-handed
With a childish grin and a camera

I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't wanna be
The only one who's drowning in their misery
And I'll take that chance 'cause I just wanna breathe
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be
How it's supposed to be

la da da da

I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't wanna be
The only one who's drowning in their misery
And I'll take that chance 'cause I just wanna breathe
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be
How it's supposed to be

'Cause I'm packing my bags
And I won't be back

Tuesday Morning Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I remember stormy weather
The way the sky looks when it's cold
And you were with me
Content with walking
So unaware of the world

Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I dont wanna feel alone
Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna go
Tuesday morning
In the dark
I was finding out
Who you are

I took your picture
While you were sleeping
And then I paced around the room
If I had known then
That these things happen
Would they have happened with you?

Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I dont wanna feel alone
Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna go
Tuesday morning
In the dark
I was finding out
Who I was

And if you turned around to see me and I was gone
You should have looked outside your window
'Cause the sun was coming up
The sun was coming up

Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I dont wanna feel alone
Tuesday morning
In the dark
We were finding out
Who we are
Tuesday morning
In the dark
We were finding out
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are

One Of These Days Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I didn't notice
But I didn't care
I tried being honest
But that left me nowhere
I watched the station
Saw the bus pulling through
And I don't mind saying
A part of me left with you

One of these days
I won't be afraid of staying with you
I hope and I pray
Waiting to find a way back to you
Cause that's where I'm home

Did I make you nervous?
Did I ask for too much?
Was I not deserving one second of your touch?

One of these days
I won't be afraid of staying with you
I hope and I pray
Waiting to find a way back to you
Cause that's where I'm home

What would you do if I could have you?
Oh if I could
I'd let you feel everything I'm thinking
Wouldn't that be nice?

One of these days
I won't be afraid of staying with you

Love Me Like That Lyrics – Michelle Branch (feat. Sheryl Crow)

Well you stole my heart
And I'll get it back
But look me in the eye babe
Tell me why ya gonna love me like that
Why ya gonna love me like that

Well I've walked this world
Five times or more
And after all this walking babe
You still got me crawlin on the floor
crawlin on the floor
And I know this world keeps on turning
Keeps me yearning

[Chorus]
How can you turn and walk away
Pretending everythings okay?
How can you turn your back?
Tell me why ya gonna love me like that
why ya gonna love me like that?

Well I thought you'd listen
But I'm shattered like broken glass
Well I thought that we'd be different babe
Yeah, I thought that we would last
I thought that we would last
And I know this world keeps on spinning
Every minute that you're in it

[Chorus]

Love me or leave me baby but don't lead me on
With loving like yours believe me i'm better off
I"m better off alone
Well I was your gypsy
Throwing diamonds at your feet
Drifted round you like a satellite
Gave you everything you need
Everything you need
And I know this world keeps on turning
Keeps me yearning and yearning

[Chorus]

How can you just break away
Why can't you find the words to say
Love is something you work at
Tell me why ya gonna love me like that
Why ya gonna love me like that
How can you throw us away
Look at what you lost today
Now everything is shades of gray
And now you're pushing me away
Say all the things you want to say
Thought we were going all the way
Play all the games you wanna play
Slowly we just fade away

Desperately Lyrics – Michelle Branch (feat. Jessica Harp)

Something 'bout the way you looked at me
Made me think for a moment,
That maybe we were meant to be
Living our lives seperately
And it's strange that things change
But not me wanting you so desperately

[Chorus:]
Oh why can't I ignore it?
I keep giving it in but I should know better
'Cause there was something 'bout the way you looked at me
And it's strange that things change
But not me wanting you so desperately

You looked my way and said "you frustrate me"
Like you're thinking of lines and times
When you and I were you and me
We took our chance out on the street
Then I missed my chance
And chances are it won't be coming back to me

Why can't I ignore it?
I keep giving in, but I should know better
'Cause there was something 'bout the way you looked at me
And it strange that things change
But not me wanting you-

So desperately
So desperately

[CHORUS]

I keep giving in but I should know better
I keep giving in but I should know better
So desperately
I want you so desperately

Breathe Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I've been driving for an hour
Just talking to the rain
You say I've been driving you crazy
and its keeping you away
So just give me one good reason
Tell me why I should stay
'Cause I dont wanna waste another moment
in saying things we never meant to say

And I Take it just a little bit
I, hold my breath and count to ten
I, I've been waiting for a chance to let you in

If I just breathe
Let it fill the space between
I'll know everything is alright
Breathe
Every little piece of me
You'll see
Everything is alright
If I just breathe

Well it's all so overrated
In not saying how you feel
So you end up watching chances fade
And wondering what's real

And I Give you just a little time
I, Wonder if you realize
I've been waiting till I see it in your eyes

If I just breathe
Let it fill the space between
I'll know everything is alright
Breathe,
Every little piece of me
You'll see
Everything is alright
If I just breathe
Breathe

So I whisper in the dark,
Hoping you hear me
Do you hear me?

If I just breathe
Let it fill the space between
I'll know everything is alright
Breathe,
Every little piece of me
You'll see
Everything is alright
Everything is alright if i just breathe... breathe

I've been driving for an hour
Just talking to the rain

Where Are You Now? Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Maybe I'd be better on my own
No one ever seems to understand me
It's easier for me to be alone
But there's still a piece of me that feels so empty
I've been all over the world
I've seen a million different places
But through the crowds and all the faces
I'm still out there looking for you.

[Chorus:]
Where are you now?
I'm trying to get by with never knowing at all
What is the chance of finding you out there?
Or do I have to wait forever?

I write about the things I'll never know
And I can't find a moment just to slow down
It makes me think I'll never have the chance
To figure out what it's all about
So tell me what it's all about.

[Chorus]

Where are you now?
I'm trying to get by with never ever knowing at all
And I still don't know
Where are you now?
I'm trying to get by with never ever knowing at all
What is the chance of finding you out there?
Or do I have to wait
Or do I have to wait
Or do I have to wait forever?

Hotel Paper Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I write mostly on Hotel Paper
Knowing that my thoughts will never leave this room
I'd be out of line telling you, "Leave her"
So I lie lonely surrounded by you
by you

Lately I can't be happy for no one
They think I need some time to myself
I try to smile but I can't remember
And I know tomorrow there'll be nothing else

And I wanted to be giving you everything that she's not giving
And I wanted to see
'Cause I didn't believe what I'd been hearing

You turned out to be more than I bargained for
And I can tell that you need to get away
Forgive me if I admit that I'd love to love you
We both realized it way too late

And I wanted to be
Giving you everything that she's not giving
And I wanted to see
'Cause I didn't believe what I'd been hearing

Maybe this wind blowing in just came from the ocean
I write mostly on Hotel Paper

Til I Get Over You Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Everytime I feel alone
I can blame it on you
And I do, oh

You got me like a loaded gun
Golden sun and sky so blue
We both know that we want it
But we both know you left me no choice

[Chorus:]
(Chaque fois que tu t'en vas)
You just bring me down
(Je pr©tends que tout va bien)
So I'm counting my tears 'til I get over you

Sometimes I watch the world go by
I wonder what it's like
To wake up every single day
Smile on your face
You never tried
We both know we can't change it
But we both know we'll just have to face it

[Chorus]

If only I could give you up
But would I want to let you off of this soapbox baby?
We both know that we want it
But we both know you left me no choice

[Chorus]

We both know that I'm not over you
I'm not over you

It's You Lyrics – Michelle Branch

If tomorrow never comes
I would want just one thing
I would tell it to the stars and the sun
I would write it for the world to see
And it's you
The light changes when you're in the room
Oh it's you
Oh it's you

If tomorrow never comes
I would want just one wish
To kiss your quiet mouth
Trace the steps with my fingertips
And it's you
The light changes when you're in the room
Oh it's you
Oh it's you
Oh it's you

Oh it's you
Oh it's you
Oh it's you
Oh it's you...

"The Spirit Room" (2001)

Drop In The Ocean Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Love took me by the hand
Love took me by surprise
Love led me to you
And love opened up my eyes

And I was drifting away
like a drop in the ocean
And now I realize that
nothing has been as beautiful
As when I saw heaven's skies
In your eyes
In your eyes

And every time I drift away
I lose myself in you
And now I see I can be me
In everything I do

'Cause I was feeling as small
as a drop in the ocean
And now I realize that
nothing has been as beautiful
As when I saw heaven's skies
In your eyes
In your eyes

Love took me by the hand
Love took me by surprise

And I was drifting away
like a drop in the ocean
And now I've realized that
nothing has been as beautiful
As when I saw heaven's skies
In your eyes
In your eyes

Everywhere Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Turn it inside out so I can see
The part of you that's drifting over me
And when I wake you're, you're never there
But when I sleep you're, you're everywhere
You're everywhere

Just tell me how I got this far
Just tell me why you're here and who you are
'Cause every time I look
You're never there
And every time I sleep
You're always there

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

I recognize the way you make me feel
It's hard to think that
You might not be real
I sense it now, the water's getting deep
I try to wash the pain away from me
Away from me

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

I am not alone
Whoa, oh, oooh, oh

And when I touch your hand
It's then I understand
The beauty that's within
It's now that we begin
You always light my way
I hope there never comes a day
No matter where I go
I always feel you so

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I catch my breath
It's you I breathe
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone

You're in everyone I see
So tell me
Do you see me?

You Get Me Lyrics – Michelle Branch

So I'm a little left of center
I'm a little out of tune
Some say I'm paranormal
So I just bend their spoon
Who wants to be ordinary
In a crazy, mixed-up world
I don't care what they're sayin'
As long as I'm your girl

Hey, you are on my side
And they, they just roll their eyes

You get me
When nobody understands
You come and take the chance, baby
You get me
You look inside my wild mind
Never knowing what you'll find
And still you want me all the time
Yeah, you do
Yeah, you get me

So what if I see the sunshine
In the pouring rain
Some people think I'm crazy
But you say it's okay
You've seen my secret garden
Where all of my flowers grow
In my imagination
Anything goes

I, I am all you want
They, they just read me wrong

You get me
When nobody understands
You come and hold my hand, baby
You get me
You look inside my wild mind
Never knowing what you'll find
Still you want me all the time
Yeah, you do
'Cause you get me

Hey, you are on my side
They, they just roll their eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah

'Cause you get me
When nobody understands
You come and take the chance, baby
You get me
When none of the pieces fit
You make sense of it
You get me
You look inside my wild mind
Never knowing what you'll find
And still I want you all the time
Yeah, I do
'Cause you get me
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh

All You Wanted Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away

I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone
to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the time comes
I'd take you away

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

I'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I'll be there
Oh, yeah

[x2]
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

You Set Me Free Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Can't you see?
There's a feeling that's come over me
Close my eyes
You're the only one that leaves me completely breathless

No need to wonder why
Sometimes a gift like this you can't deny

'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free

There's a will
There's a way
Sometimes words just can't explain
This is real
I'm afraid
I guess this time there's just no hiding, fighting
You make me restless

You're in my heart
The only light that shines
there in the dark

'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free

When I was alone
You came around
When I was down
You pulled me through
And there's nothing that
I wouldn't do for you

'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free

Something To Sleep To Lyrics – Michelle Branch

She's his yellow brick road
Leading him on
And letting him go as far
as she lets him go
Going down to nowhere

She puts on her make-up
The same way she did yesterday
Hoping everything's the same
But everything has changed

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to
at night

He wakes up to the sound
So scared that she's leaving
He wishes she were still
asleep next to him
Hoping she will change

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to
at night

You give me something to sleep to
And all I know is
You give me something to dream to when I'm all alone and blue
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now

Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to
Something to sleep to
Something to sleep to at night

Here With Me Lyrics – Michelle Branch

It's been a long, long time since I looked into the mirror
I guess that I was blind
Now my reflection's getting clearer
Now that you're gone things will never be the same again

There's not a minute that goes by every hour of every day
You're such a part of me
But I just pulled away
Well, I'm not the same girl
you used to know
I wish I said the words I never showed

I know you had to go away
I died just a little, and I feel it now
You're the one I need
I believe that I would cry just a little
Just to have you back now
Here with me
Here with me

You know that silence is loud when all you hear is your heart
And I wanted so badly just to be a part of something strong and true
But I was scared and left it all behind

I know you had to go away
I died just a little, and I feel it now
You're the one I need
I believe that I would cry just a little
Just to have you back now
Here with me
Here with me

And I'm asking
And I'm wanting you to come back to me
Please?

I never will forget that look upon
your face
How you turned away and left
without a trace
But I understand that you did what you had to do
And I thank you

I know you had to go away
I died just a little, and I feel it now
You're the one I need
I believe that I would cry just a little
Just to have you back now
Here with me
Here with me

If Only She Knew Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I don't know whose side I'm takin'
But I'm not takin' things too well
I can see inside you're achin'
But is it still too early for me to tell?

I try to help you out through the hardest of times
Your heart is in your throat and I'm speaking my mind
Though it looks as if it's over
I'm still not over you

'Cause I still love you like I did before
I know for sure that you still feel the same way I do
If only she knew
Whoa, if only she knew, oh

I try to let it go
but I don't know if I can take it
'Cause the way you looked at me
Made me see that I can't really fake it

I try to help you out through
the hardest of times
Your heart is in your throat and I'm speaking my mind
Though it looks as if it's over
I'm still not over you

'Cause I still love you like I did before
I know for sure that you still feel the same way I do
If only she knew
Whoa

I know she loves you and I can't interfere
So I'll just have to sit back and watch my world disappear
Whoa

I try to help you out through
the hardest of times
Your heart is in your throat and I'm speaking my mind
Though it looks as if it's over
I'm still not over you
Oh, I'm still not over you

'Cause I still love you like I did before
I know for sure that you still feel the same way I do
Whoa
'Cause I will never ever walk away
I'll find a way
She could never love you like I do
If only she knew

If only she knew, oh yeah
Na na na na na na na na.

Sweet Misery Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I was lost
And you were found
You seemed to stand on solid ground

I was weak
And you were strong
And me and my guitar,
we strummed along, oh

Sweet misery you cause me
That's what you called me
Sweet misery you cause me

I was blind
But oh, how you could see
You saw the beauty in everything, everything and me

I would cry
And you would smile
You'd stay with me a little while

Sweet misery you cause me
That's what you called me
Sweet misery you cause me

And in my heart I see, oh
What you're doing to me
And in my heart I see, oh
Just how you wanted it to be
Sweet misery

Oh, whoa

Sweet misery you cause me
That's what you called me
Sweet misery you cause me

And in my heart I see, oh
What you're doing to me
And in my heart I see, oh
Just how you wanted it to be
Sweet misery

I was weak
And you were strong
And me and my guitar,
we strummed along

Washing Machine Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Your eyes they look so bright,
a funky flair in my appetite,
but there's no room for you,
my feet are on the ground,
and my head is in the clouds,
but you still can't break through,
whatcha gonna do.

I'm not just gonna stand around,
Waiting for my lips to be read,
falling through the cracks in the ground,
my feelings need to be said.

Flowing like water in a crimson melody,
the orange plastic sun is shining,
and the truth so hard to see,
the rain of your existence if falling down on me,
and the soap suds spread like a disease from my washing machine.

I'm not just gonna stand around,
Waiting for my lips to be read,
falling through the cracks in the ground,
my feelings need to be said.

I'm not just gonna stand around,
waiting for you,
falling through the cracks in the ground,
and I'm hoping that you'll make your next move,
that you'll make your next move...

I'm not just gonna stand around,
Waiting for my lips to be read,
falling through the cracks in the ground,
my feelings need to be said.

I'd Rather Be In Love Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I cannot help it I couldn't stop it if I tried
The same old heartbeat fills the emptiness I have inside
And I've heard that you can't fight love, so I won't complain
'Cause why would I stop the fire that keeps me going on?

'Cause when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love with you

Turn out the lights now
To see is to believe
I just want you near me
I just want you here with me
And I'd give up everything only for you
It's the least that I could do

'Cause when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love with you

And I feel you holding me

Why are we afraid to be in love?
To be loved
I can't explain it
I know it's tough to be loved

And I feel you holding me

Oh, oh
And when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you I'm alone

And I'd rather be in love
Yes, I'd rather be in love
Oh, I'd rather be in love with you

And I feel you holding me, oh

Paper Pieces Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada
dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada

Called your name today but no one answers any more,
you turned and ran away like someone came and locked the door,
paper pieces lyin' on the floor,
I fall to pieces now the coffees' black and my heart is sore.

*Pick me up tape me together, dadadadada-
like paper pieces on the floor.

Dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada
dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada

Since you left that day I've realized my minds made up on you,
my heart is capsized and I don't know what I'm gonna do.

*Pick me up tape me together, dadadadada-
like paper pieces on the floor.
Pick me up tape me together, dadadadada-
like paper pieces on the floor,
paper pieces on the floor :

and I call out to you,
oh, but you turn,
yes you turn away-

Dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada
dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada

Called you name today but no one answers any more.

*Pick me up tape me together, dadadadada-
like paper pieces on the floor.
Pick me up tape me together, dadadadada-
like paper pieces on the floor,
Pick me up tape me together, dadadadada-
like paper pieces on the floor,
paper pieces on the floor
(call me,call me, call me, call me)

Dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada
dada duda duda duda duda du dada duda dada

Stewart's Coat Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Hold me love,
I can't sleep again,
will I have to kiss your nose,
I wanna lay here next to him,
love,
I remember walking in the rain,
rain was falling on my hands,
I don't wanna live through that again,
no.

I know it takes love,
love is a healing thing,
when you give everything,
you're loving the world,
the world gives you love to hold onto,
remembering,
we seldom remember love.

I'll Always Be Right There Lyrics – Michelle Branch

When you're all alone,
and you need a light,
someone to guide you through the night,
just remember that I am here,
to hold you close and dry your tears.

Oh-ooh

And just when you thought you were falling,
but you know I'll always be right there.

When you're all alone,
and you need a friend,
someone to help you to the end,
when you need someone to catch you when you fall,
I'll be there through it all.

oh-oh

Cause just when you thought you were losing,
but you know I'll always be right there.

And I'll be there through the good times,
and the bad,
and we'll be there for each other,
cause you're the best friend I've ever had.

And just when you thought you were falling,
but you know I'll always be right there.
oh-oooh whenever you need me,
I'll always be right there.

Goodbye To You Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,

[Chorus:]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right

[Chorus]

And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time

[Chorus x2]

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star

Second Chances Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Sometimes we get second chances
And sometimes we never make it past the first
It really makes you wonder why somethings happen when they do
It really makes me wonder why it wasn't me instead of you

And when you say
It doesn't matter well it does
And all it takes
Is a mistake to eat your words
Just one more time I think I'll drive on home tonight

Sometimes we never see the warning
And the voice in your head tells you not to go
It really makes me wonder why somethings happen when they do
It really makes me wonder why it wasn't me instead of you

And when you say
It doesn't matter well it does
And all it takes
Is a mistake to eat your words
Just one more time I think I'll drive on home tonight

And when you look its gone its too late to turn around
And it's another day facing yourself and the things that you've done

And when you say
It doesn't matter well it does
And all it takes
Is a mistake to eat your words
Just one more time I think I'll drive on home tonight

Leap Of Faith Lyrics – Michelle Branch

One less call to answer,
Feeling full of despair,
Don't think I can get through it,
Just one last prayer.

And it's a leap of faith,
When you believe there's someone out there,
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there,
Right there?

Searching for the answer,
Nobody seems to care,
An now I wish that you were here,
Beside me to wipe away my tears.

And it's a leap of faith,
When you believe there's someone out there,
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there,
Right there?

Waiting for the answer,
Remembering times we would share,
Somehow I feel you here beside me,
Even though you're not there.

And it's a leap of faith,
When you believe there's someone out there,
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there,
Right there?

[Bridge:]
And I'll be waiting by the window for your smile to come through,
And I'll be waiting in the darkness when I call out to you,
And I'll remember when you told me,
I could trust in you

When I believe that you really care, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there, right there?

It's a leap of faith,
And I believe that you are out there,
It's a leap of faith and I believe you truly care, oh,
And when I call out to you,
I know you'll be right there,
Right there,

And it's a leap of faith.

Fall Lyrics – Michelle Branch

You were the question
I needed answered
You'd never know how scared I was
Falling in love
You would talk softly
You are a riddle
And I felt so innocent
Standing in your eyes

So hear me now
I'll scream out loud
Can't figure out
How you've entered in to my world
And I fall down

You are the vision
I'm always seeing (Oh oh)
And being alone right there with you
Left me satisfied
You're all I need in life

So hear me now
I'll scream out loud
Can't figure out
How you've entered in to my world
And I fall down

And I fall down (Oh oh oh oh)
And now what can I say
I'm so far away
I'm waiting for the day
When I'll be standing in your eyes
In your eyes

(Whoa oh) So hear me now
I'll scream out loud
Can't figure out
How you've entered in to my world
And I fall down
And I fall

Getaway Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Here we go now
dont stop the music

Monday comes like a loaded gun
and I'm trying to escape
Want to run, wanna chase the sun
Let it wash the world away

Looking out on an empty street
Thinking change is what i need
I feel slow, there's an open road
and I need some sweet release

I I I want to getaway, gotta getaway
Going where the road meets the sky
Cause I need a change
Yeah I need a change
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

Sleepless nights cause the city lights
Make the moon so hard to see
Take a ride to the other side
Give me room where I can breathe

Shout it out to the breaking dawn
Feel the earth under your feet
Open door what you waiting for
Let the rain come down on me
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

I I I wanna get away, gotta get away

Freaky freaky here we go now
Dont stop the music

Long Goodbye Lyrics – Michelle Branch (with Dwight Yoakam)

Empty cup, broken plate
All those things you never say
Don't you know by now I can take it like it is

The sky is dark
Full of rain, it ain't ever gonna change
The words are are written on your face
Go on and say it
Go on and say it
Go on and say it

Don't you give me that long goodbye
Don't stick around and make it worse
Don't leave me hanging on all night
To every pretty little word
Don't you drag me down that road
Of miles and miles and miles of hurt
Don't you give me that long goodbye

Do it fast, make it sweet
Pull the world out from under my feet
Don't you worry a thing about me, cause I'll make it

Give me the truth to understand
Since things don't work out like you planned
Well my heart is in your hands, go on and break it
I can take it
I can take it

Don't you give me that long goodbye
Don't stick around and make it worse
Don't leave me hanging on all night
To every pretty little word
Don't you drag me down that road
Of miles and miles and miles of hurt
Don't you give me that long goodbye

I promise I won't cry
You won't see one teardrop fall
I'm a big girl after all
I can take it
I can take it
I can take it

Don't you give me that long goodbye
Don't stick around and make it worse
Don't leave me hanging on all night
To every pretty little word
Don't you drag me down that road
Of miles and miles and miles of hurt
Don't you give me that long goodbye

Standing On The Edge Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I'm not asking for much
But I need a little time to find
What it is I want
And is it you this time?

I wish I could know you better
I wish I could know myself
I want it to be forever
But now I see it's only me

Standing on the edge of the world
And I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
I can’t learn to love you
If you’re all I know

I saw you waiting there
Across the parking lot
October never felt so cold
You were looking for
All the things you know I’m not
And believe me I’ve tried
I’ve tried, I've tried, oh

I thought that I knew you better
Than I knew myself

Standing on the edge of the world
And I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
I can’t learn to love you
If you’re all I know

Uh-oh, uh-oh
Don’t let it change your mind
Uh-oh, uh-oh
On and on and on and on

Standing on the edge of the world
And I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
I can’t learn to love you,
I can’t learn to love you, whoa-oh
I can’t learn to love you
If you’re all I know

Take A Chance On Me Lyrics – Michelle Branch

Roll the dice, point the gun
Make it fast, have some fun
Light a match, throw it in
Let the trouble begin

Take a leap, take a shot
Give me all that you got
Live it up down the road
Let’s get on with the show

And I can’t give you up
No it’s never enough
No it’s never enough, enough

Yeah yeah eh..

Woah, so come on baby take a chance on me
I’m what you need
So come on baby
Come on and take a chance on me

Come on, come on
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

You’re like a broken arrow
That’s never seen the sky
Let me fix you up
Let me watch you fly

And you’re so damn tired
Being down on your luck
I’m a heads-up penny
Come and pick me up

And you won’t let me go
No don’t let me go
No don’t leave me here all alone

Yeah yeah yeah

Woah, come on baby take a chance on me
I’m what you need
So come on baby

Out of the blue
Out of the sky
Into my heart
Into my life

Texas In The Mirror Lyrics – Michelle Branch

I remember driving in our car
Forty miles outside of
Where we're going but I don't know where we are
Miles away from nothing

Funny how things can change so fast
I thought I knew so much more
Before we left
Searching for answers on the map
Texas in the mirror

Mama, where are we going
Feels like we are slowing down
The sky is getting closer
To the ground, to the ground

It's Texas in the mirror

Looking for a reason in her eyes
She sings along with Elvis
Turned around and never asking why
We left it all behind us

Funny how things can change so fast
I thought I knew so much more
Before we left
My six year old hands pressed on the glass
Texas in the mirror

Mama, where are we going
Feels like we are slowing down
The sky is getting closer
To the ground, to the ground

[instrumental break]

Mama, where are we going
Feels like we are slowing down
The sky is getting closer
To the ground, to the ground

Mama, where are we going
Feels like we are slowing down
The sky is getting closer
To the ground, to the ground
To the ground, to the ground
To the ground, to the ground

It's Texas in the mirror

Just Texas in the mirror
