SUNSHINE & CITY LIGHTSIt’s taking us downtownYou’re watching me, watching me, watching me goBut I never listenNo, I never let you know

Now we’re heading uptownIs there something or nothing you wanted to sayDo you want me to go now?‘Cause baby I want to stayStay…

What you need to knowIs to try to let it go, let it goWhat you need to findIs someone that never will let you goOhhhhhhhh sunshine & city lightsWill guide you homeOhhhhhhhh yeah you gotta knowThat I’ll never let you go

Now we’re stuck in midtownSurrounded by people & nothing but soundAnd we’re going nowhere And we are the lost & found

We’re all over this townIs there something or nothing you wanted to say‘Cause I need to go nowDo you want me to stay?I said stay…

What you need to knowIs to try to let it go, let it goWhat you need to findIs someone that never will let you goOhhhhhhhh sunshine & city lightsWill guide you homeOhhhhhhhh, yeah you gotta knowThat I’ll never let you go

Sunshine & city lightsOooooooooh, oooooooohSunshine & city lights

What you need to knowIs to try to let it go, let it goWhat you need to findIs someone who never will let you goWhat you need to know

Is to try to let it go, let it goWhat you need to findIs someone who never will let you go Ohhhhhhhh, sunshine & city lightsWill guide you homeOhhhhhhhh, yeah you gotta knowThat I’ll never let you go.

YOU MIGHT BE THE ONE Some people call me crazyBut I don’t think I’m crazyTo believe that you and me could be somethingTo believe that you and me could be something

Some people say you’re no goodBut they don’t know what’s good for meIf it isn’t you then I don’t need nothingIf it isn’t you then I don’t need nothing

When the lighting strikesAnd the rain comes downI’ll be all rightI’ll dance in your storm

When the thunder roarsIn the darkest nightI see your lightYou bring me back home

I feel a fire burning my soulThat’s how I knowThat’s how I know

It’s like desire pulling me inWhen I shouldn’t goThat’s how I knowThat I am sold…That you might be the oneYeah, you might be the one

Some people think it’s stupidBut I don’t think it’s stupidTo be young and put yourself over meDon’t need directionsThis is where I wanna be

When the lighting strikesAnd the rain comes downI’ll be all rightI’ll dance in your storm

When the thunder roarsIn the darkest night

I see your lightYou bring me back home

I feel a fire burning my soulThat’s how I knowThat’s how I know

It’s like desire pulling me inWhen I shouldn’t goThat’s how I knowThat I am sold…That you might be the oneThat you might be the one(You might be the one)That you might be the oneThe one…

I feel a fire burning my soulThat’s how I knowThat’s how I know

It’s like desire pulling me inWhen I shouldn’t goThat’s how I knowThat I am sold…That you might be the one.

LEILAAt first IWas speechlessAt first I crumbled every time you smiledYou’re right hereBeside meYou’re right here, saying you liked to stay a whileAll the people say we’ll neverBe the type to stay togetherBut you know I promise you we’re gonna prove them wrongMaybe this is wrongOh maybe

You’re the one for meYou’re the one for meThis feels a lot like loveLeila, Leila, LeilaYou’re the one for me

DecemberSnow fallingBut every word you whisper keeps me warmAll the odds are stacked against usPeople say it’s just a crush but

If I could you know that I’d stay here my whole life longMaybe this is wrongOh, maybe

You’re the one for meYou’re the one for meThis feels a lot like loveLeila, Leila, LeilaYou’re the one for me

Maybe I’ll get hurtAnd I should keep my distanceBe careful with my heartBut I don’t want to listenHere with you tonightSomething in me knows this can’t be wrongBaby

You’re the one for meYou’re the one for meThis feels a lot like loveLeila, Leila, LeilaYou’re the one for me

The one for me

CALIFORNIA SKYSometimes I wish that I could stop the clock from turningAnd spend the weekend lost inside your eyesSomehow I wish I could halt the roses burning‘Til I can make you mine

From the first time I saw you at that coffee shop on MelroseThey were playing “Hey Jude” & we both sang alongCould’ve talked foreverHad a thousand cups of coffeeI hated that my flight was taking off

And if I had the timeAnd I could live a different lifeAnd if this plane would flyOver the California skyI’d be with you tonightOhhhhhI’d be with you tonightOhhhhh

I put my headphones on & went right to the Beatles

Looked out the window, saw your face amongst the starsTen hours ‘til London & I wondered if you’d been hereAnd if you know you caught my heart

From the first time I saw you at that coffee shop on MelroseWith your skinny black jeans & your long blonde hairCould’ve talked foreverHad a thousand cups of coffeeInstead of being ten thousand feet above nowhere

And if I had the timeAnd I could live a different lifeAnd if this plane would flyOver the California skyI’d be with you tonightOhhhhhI’d be with you tonightOhhhhh

I wanna take you up to MalibuI wanna hold your hand in Griffith ParkI wanna dance with you in HollywoodAnd kiss your lips under the stars

And if I had the timeAnd I could live a different lifeAnd if this plane would flyOver the California skyI’d be with you tonightOhhhhhI’d be with you tonightOhhhhhI’d be with you tonightOhhhhh I’d be with you tonightI’d be with you tonight

TAKE MY HEARTDon’t have no fancy occupationI can’t fly you to the moonAin’t got nothing in my pocketBut I got enough love for you

I don’t drive a Lamborghini(No, I don’t)All my clothes are old & usedAin’t got no house up on the hill, girlBut I got enough love for you

Girl what I giveYou can’t put a price tag on itYou’re worth more than goldAnd I’ll do anything to have itSpend all my time on youI ain’t got no dime to payBut if I gave one thing awayTake my heart todayOoooooooh, ooooooohTake my heart todayOoooooooh, oooooooh

Let me show you what you’ve been missing(My love)And show you what love’s supposed to do(Love is suppose to do)We don’t need no mansion or money‘Cause I got enough love for you

It don’t take no rocket scienceTo know that I’m your dream come trueLet me promise you this one thingThat I got enough love for youGot so much love for you

Girl what I giveYou can’t put a price tag on itYou’re worth more than goldAnd I’ll do anything to have itSpend all my time on youI ain’t got no dime to payBut if I gave one thing awayTake my heart today

Girl what I giveYou can’t put a price tag on itYou’re worth more than goldAnd I’ll do anything to have itSpend all my time on youI ain’t got no dime to payBut if I gave one thing away

Girl what I giveYou can’t put a price tag on itYou’re worth more than goldI’ll do anything to have itSpend all my time on you, yeahI ain’t got no dime to payBut if I gave one thing awayTake my heart todayOoooooooh, ooooooohTake my heart todayOoooooooh, take my heart todayOoooooooh, oooooooh
