1. 1Love Inside

   Take a moment to count your blessings
   And you will find what you already know
   It's the same thing we all seem to miss
   It's the one thing we find hard to express

   Remember you got all the love that you need inside
   Let it just flow and take the ride
   There will be new possibilities
   Open up your heart and you will see
   You got all the love that you need inside
   Let it just flow and take the ride
   You will see that you will just up and fly
   You got all the love that you need inside

   For a minute I thought I got it
   But the next day I couldn't find my strength
   'Cause I was caught up in a world that I can't understand
   Where we judge each other as if we can
   Even begin to try to understand what battles we fight in our heads
   And nothing's as easy as 1, 2, 3
   But if you follow through you will come to see
   That life is giving you the opportunity to be what you wanna be

   Chorus

2. 2A Love Before

   I had a love before who told me things I did believe, but I was never sure
   It was in his eyes that I denied the truth
   Instead I chose to believe the lies
   I was under a spell
   But I liked the way it made me feel, so I could never tell
   That I was so unwise to give him all my love
   When I knew it wouldn't last

   I have seen a momentary love
   But you and I will always stay
   There have been too many for too long
   And the promises that don't remain
   Become a love before

   I gave my heart before to a man who couldn't see
   That to him I'd have given the world
   And although I tried he turned away my best
   And still I stayed along for the ride
   Why couldn't I tell that all he had to give
   Was a lesson that I learned too well?
   And I was so unwise to give him all my love
   And to think that it would last

   Chorus

   It's a story told too many times of a love
   That keeps you coming back, coming back
   Though you know it's just not right, still you feel
   Compelled to go running back, running back
   When you came into my life, I finally felt like
   I got it right, got it right
   Although it took some time, every love before
   Led me to you

3. 3Bad Grammar (Me & You)

   I know I can be so difficult
   And you seem to be so fed up with me

   I can tell this won't end well
   I don't know where you'll go, but…

   Think about it for a minute more
   Before you walk out the door
   Take a second just to think it through
   Is this the end of me and you?

   This time I know I'll get it right
   So give me a chance to show you how it can be

   You still say there's no way I can change, but I think you should

   Chorus

   You still say there's no way I can change, but I think you should

   Chorus

4. 4Free To Be Me

   I know we all just want to be accepted
   Whether you're black or you're white
   You're Buddhist or you're Muslim
   Somewhere the love got lost in translation
   And the ego's the one that wants to rule the nation

   (I want to be free)
   I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me
   One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free
   (Free to be me)
   I believe that we will see, everybody together, yes, you and me
   One thing that we can agree is that we all just wanna be free

   There was a time when I would just accept it
   Stereotypes and all of the assumptions
   Now I have a mind and I'm not afraid to use it
   Although there are some who would rather I abuse it

   Chorus

   There is a chance, I know that we can make it
   Through the good and the bad, we're strong enough to take it
   For we are the ones who will never forsake it
   The life that we live and the beauty that creates us

5. 5Dream

   Far away is a place they say
   Where we can be free to be who we want to be

   Well I won't wait for the day to come
   When you and I can live as one
   It's not as far as it may seem
   The dream

   I can see, as far as it may be
   It is coming near
   The dream will soon be real

   I believe there's a time when we
   Will look into each other's eyes
   Without a trace of animosity

   Well I won't wait for that day to come
   So I vow now to love each one
   For we must live without fear until
   We dream

   Chorus

6. 6Don't Give Up On Me

   I know it's getting kind of crazy
   And this love might have you thinking
   That you're done and leaving 'cause it wasn't what you thought it'd be

   And I thought that I could make it
   Without the one thing that brings me up when I'm down, down and out
   And now I'm stuck here on the ground

   Don't give up on me
   I'll never let you down
   Don't give up on me
   I'll always be around

   You say it's too hard to trust in
   And yet you keep up the lovin' to get me to stay
   And still you say it's just not right

   But don't ever get to thinkin'
   That you could give me a reason to ever leave your side
   Because it's right here I wanna be

   Chorus

   I've been waiting for the moment for you finally to notice
   That I am here and waiting for the chance to give you love
   And I can give you a reason to trust and finally believe in my love
   So baby, baby, don't give up on me

   Chorus

7. 7One Last Time

   I know your heart was never mine
   And to her you would go back every time
   But I can hear you whispering to me, "Won't you stay the night?"
   And yours is a love that I can't deny

   So one last time
   I need to feel your heart beating close to mine
   I can't fight the need to have you next to me
   One last time

   It would be so easy for you to stay
   And give me all the love she turns away
   But in the distance I see the moon lighting up the night
   And you will be gone by the early light

   Chorus

   Stay with me until you have to go
   There is not a soul in the world who knows
   Who you really are when you're with me
   Your soul is the lock and I have the key

   Chorus

8. 8Even If He Lied

   So now you tell me this is not exactly what you thought it'd be
   You don't think that we should have to try
   I guess I should be happy that we had ever met at all
   Because I always loved you for your mind

   How will I know if my feelings were for sure?
   How could I tell? I wouldn't have the words
   How would he feel if I knew the truth?
   That I, I wouldn't care even if he lied

9. 9Walk Away

   Tell me, why's it so hard to walk away from you?
   I see there can't be any other way, oh no
   I try real hard to connect to you
   But each time I miss my shot and it falls through
   I don't know if I can handle feeling this way
   But each time that you hold me I feel so much pain

   Should I go? Should I stay?
   Is it right? Who's to say?
   But if you say the word
   Then I will walk away

   Should I go? Should I stay?
   Is it right? Who's to say?
   But if you say the word
   Then I will walk away

   I know it's hard for you to open up to me
   But you should try and just let your emotions free
   I know you got problems you need to address
   'Cause you can't love me if you don't love yourself
   You know I am willing to see this thing through
   But at this point the rest is all up to you

   Chorus

   Time goes by, still I try
   Our love stays slipping away
   So should I let it go, should I let it go?
   I don't know

10. 10It's Not You, It's Me

    Is it really love that can make me do these things?
    Lately I've been acting like a child
    If it seems that I haven't been myself at all
    It's because my world's turned upside down

    It's not like me to act that way
    I don't know how I changed
    But I can see that it's not you, it's me

    No need to explain why you just don't feel this way
    If it were me, I'd have done the same

    I wish I were strong, because then I'd carry on
    Instead I'll wait 'til the heartache is gone

    Chorus

    This is how it ends, barely even friends
    One love gone while one clings to the end
    Of something I never even had all along

    Chorus ×2

    Oh, it's not like me to act that way
    If I was you, I'd do the same
    Oh, one love gone while one clings to the end
    Of something I never had
    Oh, something I never had

11. 11Opportunity 2.0

    I feel things about to turn around for me
    'Cause I've been workin' for a long time
    I know the time's about to change for we
    We're gonna see a better day

    Just when you think you've had enough
    And you feel you're gonna give up
    That's when life'll turn around and you'll see
    In the problem is the opportunity

    Just when you think you've had enough
    And you feel you're gonna give up
    That's when life'll turn around and you'll see
    The opportunity

    I feel like it could be the day
    For me to think about it in a brand new way

    Chorus

    You know that you could do the same
    If you, if you cast your fears away

    Chorus

12. 12By My Side

    You give me strength, you give me courage
    When I can't seem to find either on my own
    You give me hope when I am doubtful
    And all the faith that was lost can now be found

    You are the light that always brightens up my day
    When everything is wrong, you make it all okay
    You make me feel like I can reach and touch the sky
    I'm high with you by my side

    You are my sight, you are my wisdom
    You help me see the things I know weren't there
    You pick me up when I am down low
    And take me to a place I've never been before

    Chorus

    Take me higher, take me higher
    Every day you're my desire
    Oh, you really keep the fire burning, baby, yeah, it's burning for ya
    Oh, you know I can't resist it, all the love you keep on giving
    'Cause it's real and I can do anything with you by my side

    Chorus
