SHORT STACK Homecoming LYRICS
Dance With Me
And when I run out of words to say
Every inch inside of you is begging me to stay
Baby would I lie to you it's better off this way
Makes me feel like everything's alright
So why don't you wanna dance with me tonight.
Girl its what you do to me this jealousy it makes me lose my mind
But there's no place in the galaxy I'd rather be than here with you tonight
And when I run out of words to say
Every inch inside of you is begging me to stay
Baby would I lie to you it's better off this way
Makes me feel like everything's alright
So why don't you wanna dance with me tonight.
You wanna see the best of me then get in line my favorite one night stand
La da da da la da da da da [x2]
I kinda like you so I keep you safe and sound forever in my hand
La da da da la da da da da [x2]
And your pretty little lips
Hang off every word you say
Just waiting for that kiss
In-tangled in your disarray
Around your fingertips
You make me feel so happy intertwined
So why don't you wanna dance with me tonight.
La da da da la da da da da [x4]
And your pretty little lips
Hang off every word you say
Just waiting for that kiss
In-tangled in your disarray
Around your fingertips
You make me so happy I could die
And when I run out of words to say
(I keep running)
(I keep running)
Every inch inside of you is begging me to stay
(I keep running)
(I keep running)
Baby would I lie to you
Its better off this way
(its better off)
(its better off this way)
Makes me feel like everything's alright
So why don't you wanna dance with me tonight
La da da da la da da da da [x4]

Gravity
I love you from the inside out
Cause of all the things you do
And it fills my lungs with doubt
So I'm coming clean to you
And these words were never spoken
Cause you heard them all before
Oh, Lately I can't do this anymore
No, no more.
But tonight,
I'mma love you forever
Baby just the way you are (You are)
Yeah tonight,
Well you said you'd fix me,
But I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
No I don't wanna get better
Yell, you scream, you shout
Tell them I'm telling you the truth
You kick me when I'm down
But I'm always there for you
Oh, I know I'm far from perfect
But I'm perfect far from you
All I've been thinking
I can't do this anymore
But tonight,
I'mma love you forever
Baby just the way you are (You are)
Yeah tonight,
Well you said you'd fix me,
But I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I'mma love you forever
But I don't wanna get better
(No, no, no!)
But tonight, I'mma love you forever
Baby just the way you are (You are)
Yeah tonight, well you said you'd fix me
But I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I don't wanna get better
I'mma love you forever
But I don't wanna get better
(But I don't wanna get better)
I don't wanna get better
(I don't wanna get better)
I don't wanna get better
I'mma love you forever
Yeah I'm fine the way I am
But I don't wanna get better
(But I don't wanna get better)
And this is falling apart
Cause there's no easy way out
I said it straight from the heart, the heart, the heart!

Amy
Say, say you love every single thing about me
Like you used to, like you used to ooh
And I pray, pray you sing all your favourite songs about me
Like you used to, like you used to ooh
And the clouds above they opened up and raced around me and you
And suddenly I knew that love was, love was made for me and you
And I know we can't make this on our own
So we'll set our hearts on fire cause we're not coming home
Tonight
So say, say you love every single thing about me
Like you used to, like you used to ooh
And the clouds above they opened up and raced around me and you
And suddenly I knew that love was, love was made for me and you
And I know we can't make this on our own
So we'll set our hearts on fire cause we're not coming home
And I know we can't make this on our own
So we'll set our hearts on fire cause we're not coming home
Tonight
You're too late
You're too late
Too late
Oh won't you say it again
And I'm too late
Late
You say it again
Oh won't you say it again
Again and again and again and again and again
And I know we can't make this on our own
So we'll set our hearts on fire cause we're not coming home
And I know we can't make this on our own (so say, say you love)
So we'll set our hearts on fire cause we're not coming home (like you used to)
I know we can't make this on our own
So we'll set our hearts on fire cause we're not coming home
Tonight

Suburbia
So baby let me run away,
I'll make my own destiny;
Cause this town will murder us,
Forget your husband, and suburbia
When I was younger you said to me,
Love songs are for lovers,
And not for you;
So go and write the world the blues
So as I sit down with a pen in my hand,
A heart was killed and became a broken man,
And I knew,
I gotta get out of here too
The city lights are calling me,
And I am not afraid;
The streets are paved with heroes,
And they're calling out my name
So baby let me run away,
I'll make my own destiny;
Cause this town is killing me,
Silently,
And hopelessly tonight;
And baby you can tell the same,
I'm the boy who got away,
Cause this town will murder us;
Forget your husband, and suburbia
When I was younger you said to me,
The white picket fence and a well-groomed man
Is right;
Now go and find yourself a wife
And in all of the cities in all of the world,
Will borrow the money and all of the girls
In the night;
Can I get her off my maze
The hull was cold and broken,
Like we're one step closer to God;
I live for words I've spoken,
And I hate them just because
So baby let me run away,
I'll make my own destiny;
Cause this town is killing me,
Silently,
And hopelessly tonight;
And baby you can tell the same,
I'm the boy who got away,
Cause this town will murder us;
Forget your husband, and suburbia
So baby let me run away,
I'll make my own destiny;
Cause this town is killing me,
Silently,
And hopelessly tonight;
And baby you can tell the same,
I'm the boy who got away,
Cause this town will murder us;
Forget your husband, and suburbia
(Run away, Run away)
Forget your husband, and suburbia
(run away, Run away)
Forget your husband, and suburbia

Shimmy (A Go Go) (Live)
Yeah, ooh, ooh,
ooh, ooh,
Oh, Can I catch your eye tonight?
(So beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
We could live forever,
One line at a time,
So lets sway,
Step one is your heart,
Rip it up for another,
(SO beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
Tie it to sincerity,
Yeah, this is a soundtrack for lovers,
So baby come on,
Get down,
Why now,
So right,
And watch,
Me drown,
The moment,
Right,
Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go
We're lovers with such precision,
So say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go,
No social suicide this time,
(So beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
When I repeat confessions with catastrophe in mind,
And f*** its sublime,
Step one is your heart,
Rip it up for another,
(So beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
Tie it to sincerity,
Yeah, this is a soundtrack for lovers,
So baby come on,
Get down,
Why now,
So right,
And watch,
Me drown,
The moment,
Right,
Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go
We're lovers with such precision,
So say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye tonight,
Yeah!
Oh, Get down,
Why now,
So right,
And watch,
Me drown,
The moment,
Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go
We're lovers with such precision,
So say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so,
SHIMMY SHIMMY GO GO!

Planets (Live)
I'm reaching out
I'm reaching out
I'm reaching out to get to you
Sweetheart here's the sweet part
It's 5am and your lips are still amazing
But they can't stop, me from falling
Off the rooftop singing
What planet are you from?
And are all the lights on?
I don't know how to talk to you
And where did you come from?
What planet are you on?
I can't believe the things you do
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out to get to you
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I think I'm on the same planet as you
Stop now, here's the breakdown
Let's leave this town
In the place of ill intentions
Hail the cop cars, sound the alarms
But they're too damn late
Boom, boom, baby.
What planet are you from?
And are all the lights on?
I don't know how to talk to you
And where did you come from?
What planet are you on?
I can't believe the things you do
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
(Hold on)
I'm reaching out to get to you
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I think I'm on the same planet as you
I think I'm on the same planet as you
Sweetheart I'm here for you
To see your pretty face
I'd defy all the stars
To capture your embrace
Sweetheart I'm holding out
Sweetheart we're pulling through
Sweetheart I'm reaching out
Only to get to you
Only to get to you
Only to get to you
Oh
What planet are you from?
And are all the lights on?
I don't know how to talk to you
And where did you come from?
What planet are you on?
I can't believe the things you do
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
(Hold on)
I'm reaching out to get to you
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I'm reaching out (I'm reaching out)
I think I'm on the same planet as you (Woahooho)
I think I'm on the same planet as you
(I'm reaching out)
I think I'm on the same planet as you

Amy
Spent all last night on the telephone
just to tell you your favourite songs on the radio
And I hoped you might come home with my t-shirt on and nothing underneath
You said oh boy I'd rather leave
Oh Amy, it's what you do to me
I met all my friends on the interstate
blasting Billie Jean on the stereo
Talkin' 'bout in high school how we swore we'd never turn out like we did
We said we'd drown into the sea
Oh Amy, you're my favourite disease
And we sing!
It's what you do to me
that makes me feel so numb
We'll call it tragedy
we'll never see the sun!
Rise over New York City
Oh my god you look so pretty and, you'll say
It's what you do to me
Spent all my cash on comic books
so I took my VCR to the rodeo
Built a home of sticks and stones on a one way trip
to where I'd rather be
You said you loved all that you see
Oh Amy, it's how it's supposed to be
And we sing!
It's what you do to me
that makes me feel so numb
We'll call it tragedy
we'll never see the sun!
Rise over New York City
Oh my god you look so pretty and, you'll say
It's what you do to me
And I'm sinking like a stone a mile below the ocean
Cutting you name an inch into my chest (my chest)
And I wish I shook you up like a can of cherry soda
Wish I took a part of what could've been
Tell it like it is and always is
'Cause babe it never gets as good as this
It's what you do to me
that makes me feel so numb
(don't want it as good as this)
We'll call it tragedy
(don't want it as good as this)
We'll never see the sun!
Rise over New York City
Oh my god you look so pretty and, you'll say
It's what you do to me
Spent all last night on the telephone
just to tell you your favourite songs on the radio
And I hoped you might come home with my t-shirt on and nothing underneath
You said you loved me but you'd leave
(Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
Oh Amy, it's what you do to me
(it's what you do to me!)
Oh Amy, it's what you do to me
(Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
Oh Amy, it's what you do to me
