Lyrics:

Would you walk to the edge of the ocean
Just to fill my jar with sand
Just in case I get the notion
To let it run through my hand
Let it run through my hand

Well, I don't want the whole world
The sun and moon and all their light
I just want to be the only girl, You love all your life
You love all your life

Would you catch a couple thousand fireflies, yeah
put them in a lamp to light my world
All dressed up in tux and bow tie hand delivered to a lonely girl, to a lonely,
lonely girl

Well, I don't want the whole world
The sun and moon and all their light
I just want to be the only girl, You love all your life
You love all your life

Lately I've been writing desperate love songs
and mostly sing them to the wall
You could be the center piece of my obsession
If you would notice me at all yeah

Well, I don't want the whole world, no the sun and moon and all their light
I just want to be the only girl,
You love all your life
You love all your life
You love all your life, life, yeah

Lyrics:

I like your lips like I like my Coca-Cola yeah
Oh how it pops and fizzes
You like my shirt like I like it when you hold my hand the way it fits
Its got me feelin lucky

Lucky who its got me. Who you've got that somethin
Boy I wanna be where you are
And I'm gunnin for ya
Can't even fall for some other man
Cuz brother man
You know how to get hip to my heart
Come on now
All the girs in town look you up and look you down
I know
So come on and pick your kitten
Purr baby purr go ahead and say the word let's go
Think I'm the one your takin
Got me feelin lucky

Tell me who, who
You play it cool
You play it so c-c-cool
And what am I supposed to do
When you play it so cool and I've got the hots for you

I said you know how to get hip to my heart

Lyrics:

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh oh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She'll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I’ve never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There’s a boy here in town says he’ll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I’m a goner
And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin’

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep ‘em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls

Lyrics:

I remember when my heart caught the fever
 You were standing all alone in the summer heat
 I was with my boyfriend, a new boyfriend
 He was as sweet as he could be
 One look at you and I was through
 My heart switched up on me
 
Like a postcard from Paris
 When I've seen the real thing
 It's like finding out your diamond
 Is from an old promise ring
 Come back from your fortune teller
 She read your cards upside down
 The meanest thing you ever did is come around
 And now I'm ruined
 I'm ruined
 
In the evening you can catch me daydreaming
 Did that moment send you reeling just like me
 I should've gone over, right over
 I should've never let you leave
 But it's the never knowing that keeps this going
 And drives me crazy
 
Like a postcard from Paris
 When I've seen the real thing
 It's like finding out your diamond
 Is from an old promise ring
 Come back from your fortune teller
 She read your cards upside down
 The meanest thing you ever did is come around
 
Just when I thought things were alright
 My eyes played tricks on my mind yeah
 Will I ever be satisfied
 'Cause all I ever seem to find
 
Is a, a postcard from Paris
 When I need the real thing
 It's like finding out your diamond
 Is from an old promise ring
 Come back from your fortune teller
 She read your cards upside down
 The meanest thing you ever did
 The cruelest thing you ever did
 The meanest thing you ever did is come around
 
I am ruined
 I'm ruined
 I am ruined yeah
 I am ruined
 
Yeah, yeah

Lyrics:

It ain't complicated
Well I've grown to hate it
I never liked the taste of crow
But baby I ate it
They tried to warn me
They said that you were ornery
So don't bring me those big brown eyes
and tell me that you're sorry
You might as well throw gasoline on a fire

The way you lie
You lie like a priceless Persian rug on
a rich man's floor
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking
in the sunshine on my porch
Well you lie like a penny in a parking
lot at the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie

That ain't my perfume, I bet she had a curfew
You told me you were out with the boys and
baby I believed you
So why you lookin' so nervous
You know you kind of deserve this
I ought to kill you right now
And do the whole wide world a service
Well my daddy's gonna straighten you out
Like a piece of wire, like a piece of wire

The way you lie
You lie like the man with the slicked back
hair who sold me that Ford
Yeah you lie like a pine tree in the back yard
after last month's storm
Well you lie like a penny in a parking lot at
the grocery store
It just comes way too natural to you
The way you lie

Well I tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna drive to the big old muddy river
I'm gonna park my car in the middle of the
mile long bride
And then I'm gonna cry
Well maybe just a little
Then I'm gonna slip off the ring
that you put on my finger
And give it a big old fling and watch it sink
Down, down, down
And there it's gonna lie until the Lord
comes back around

Because you lie like a priceless Persian rug on
a rich man's floor
Yeah you lie like a coon dog basking
in the sunshine on my porch
Well you lie like a penny in a parking
lot at the grocery store
It just comes so dang natural to you
The way you lie

The way you lie
Well it's what you do, it's who you are
