daniel powter - bad day

Where is the moment when we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the light just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been a way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Because you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work on a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holliday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work with a smile and go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. holliday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when we needed the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

'Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work with a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day

daniel powter - best of me

I was made the wrong way
won't you do me the right way
where you gonna be tonight?
'cause I won't stay too long

Maybe you're the light for me
when you talk to me it strikes me
won't somebody help me
'cause I don't feel too strong

Was it something that I said
was it something that I did
or the combination of both that did me wrong

You know I'm hoping you sing along
I know it's not your favorite song
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
you know that some of us spin again
when you do, you need a friend
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
and I hate to thought of finally being erased
baby that's the best of me

Everything's behind you
but the hope still stands beside you
living in every moment
have I wasted all your time

Was there something that I said
was there something that I did
or the combination I broke that did me have

You know I'm hoping you sing along
I know it's not your favorite song
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
you know that some of us spin again
when you do, you need a friend
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
and I hate to thought of finally being erased
baby that's the best of me
baby that's the best of me

You know I'm hoping you sing along
I know it's not your favorite song
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
you know that some of us spin again
when you do, you need a friend
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
and I hate to thought of finally being erased
baby that's the best of me

daniel powter - beauty queen

When your laughter's around
still there right in the face
and you lay on the ground
wonder often to space
it laugh at your bad
it take what they see
but you are good enough for me

I see you run to the moon
and you left us behind
was all just too cruel
or we're just to one kind

I hope you remember
I hope you're clear
that you are good enough for me
yeah you are good enough for me

You are learning how to fly away
my beauty queen from yesterday
and how's it felt to fall from grace
coz I never had the chance to say
that you are good enough good enough for me

If I can go back to the place
There would be time I must understood
even though it's complicated
I can seem to overstate it I think finally
The moment should go
would you kiss me good bye

Wherever you go
I hope you believe
that you are good enough for me
yeah you are good enough for me

I guess I wasn't very strong
I should've told you I was wrong
and i wish i had a second chance
coz I really need to understand

Why you have to fly away
my beauty queen from yesterday
and how's it felt to fall from grace
I never had the chance to say
that you are good enough good enough
for me

daniel powter - don t give up on me

I don't know what I did
But most bein' a fool
I got no excuses
So I wrote this song for you

Whatever the reasons did you come to say goodbye
I'm hoping for one more try
I want to change your mind

So I pick up the pieces
I swallow all my pride
I don't wanna wake up feeling this emptiness inside

Did it spin you around
Did it turn you upside down
I wonder when you found out I'm a waste of your time

So don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
I never meant to steal your smile
I haven't seen it for a while

Don't don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
Just try to understand
I can be your better man

I tell you once just don't give up on me

I tell you once just don't give up on me

And now I feel I'm out of place
I look for you on every stranger's face
I don't think I can do this any more
Don't think I do this any more

And every little things just falls apart
From the very first that day I broke your heart
It only makes me want you more and more
Just like before

Coz you're spinnin' around
And now you turn me upside down
I never meant to be a waste your time

So don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
I never meant to steal your smile
I haven't seen it for a while

Don't don't give up on me (don't give up on me)
Just try to understand
I can be your better man

I tell you once just don't give up on
Me and before
If you're not that alone
What am I supposed to do?

I tell you once just don't give up on me
Baby say you won't give up on me.

daniel powter - styrofoam

I try real folling
Relax
Drowning with the poor man
relax system
I love you still.
I'd try to come back if I could.

Vacant on the weekends
any ex-boyfriends
A little tired of being a lot misunderstood.

And I've paid bills, won't pay any more
Isn't this an ordinary soul? Styrofoam

I don't ever feel warm
like grass stains
and I'm stone cold.
Whatever's left
I'm too tied up to come undone.

Write it down on pamphlets;
perfect we're just perfect.
Whatever's left
it's not so easy when you're dumb.

Some of them good and some of them bad
I always ease along because I'm alone? Styrofoam

---

Sixteen are you still
I try I come back it's from cool
I fade a long weekends
Edu exboyfriend when he died
Be a long you understood

I paid bills and paid more
Isn't it an ordinary song?
Styrofoam

I don't never feel on
Like tryed it
We never left
And you come and down
I don't try be perfect
We never left
Is not so easy when you down

I'm some good
I'm some memoir
When do I believe a long?
Styrofoam
Styrofoam

I'm some good
I'm some memoir
When do I believe a long?
Styrofoam
Styrofoam
Styrofoam

daniel powter - birthday suits

On my birthday
On my birthday

Today is my special day
And it'd be great if we could go all the way
What difference would it make
To turn eighteen or eighty-eight?
Gonna have fun with you anyway

I can't deny, there's still an awkward kid inside
Today's the day to come of age
Let's roll with it and just enjoy the ride

On my birthday, in my birthday suit
I want to celebrate, who I really am with you
On my birthday, in my birthday suit
Come on, let's celebrate, just me and you

Today is my special day
You don't need to count the candles on my cake
I'm not a jock, not a rock star
Just a skinny guy from Vancouver who bangs piano when no ones around

I can't deny, there's still an awkward kid inside
Today's the day, to come of age
Let's roll with it and just enjoy the ride

On my birthday, in my birthday suit
I want to celebrate, who I really am with you
On my birthday, in my birthday suit
Come on, let's celebrate, it's be just me and you

Have I told you that you're beautiful with those freckles on your cheeks?
Yah, your so called flaws, well they look perfect to me

On my birthday, in our birthday suits,
I want to celebrate, I wanna light it up with you
On my birthday, in my birthday suit,
I want to celebrate, who I really am with you

On my birthday, in my birthday suit,
Come on let's celebrate, just me and you
Come on let's celebrate, just me and you
Come on let's celebrate, just me and you

daniel powter - crazy all my life

Well something got me shaking
My mind was racing pacing the room
I don't know but I think I fell to pieces
The moment that I first saw you

Now it's true
I thought I could get over it
Brushed you off my shoulder but now
I'm a mess
Every day is worse and the hurt is always bringing me down
Help me

Cause I don't know if I can take it
I'm so tired of trying to fake it
Tell me you know

Now I'm standing right here at your front door
I need to know
That I've been crazy all my life
Crazy all my life

Well tell me you can help me
I'm nothing but a shell of a man
Baby please the only time I'm right
Is when I am by your side understand?

Can't you see?
Baby it's irrational
Maybe I'm a natural freak
All I know is love can make you stupid
And you are just a song on repeat
Help me

Cause I don't know if I can take it
I'm so tired of trying to fake it
Tell me you know
That I've been crazy all my life

I try to be cool but I want more
Now I'm standing right here at your front door

And you're feeling crazy too

daniel powter - free loop

I'm a little used to calling outside your name
I wont see you tonight so I can keep from going insane
But I don't know enough, I get some kinda lazy day
Hey yeah

I've been fabulous through to fight my town a name
I'll be stooped tomorrow if I don't leave as them both the same
But I dont know enough, I get some kinda lazy day
Hey yeah

Cause it's hard for me to lose
In my life I've found only time will tell
And I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah

And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright

I'm a little used to wandering outside the rain
You can leave me tomorrow if it suits you just the same
But I don't know enough, I need someone who leaves the day
Hey yeah

Cause it's hard for me to lose
In my life I've found only time will tell
And I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah

And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright

In my life I've found only time will tell
I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah

And it's hard for me to lose in my life
I've found outside your skin right near the fire
That we can baby
We can change and feel alright

And I will figure out that we can baby
We can do a one night stand, yeah

We can change and feel alright

daniel powter - except the blue

You got my last five years
In a cardboard box
With a hallmark card saying
You miss me lots
Its true

I pass the rows of the crows
And they laugh it up
But the punchline hurts
When you pack enough
Its true

When I'm on my feet
But its the same old street
Cause its hard for me to finally
To see the shades of what we used to be
Now what the hell am I supposed to do
I'm halve as good and half as bright
as stars that shine on me tonight
Id probably be sharing them with you
Somehow all the colors
Left except the blue

I break through the clouds
On a big jet plane
But every destination
Still looks the same
Without you (without you)
Without you

If only dedication helped
Miss you less
No matter what I take
I just can't forget about you

My world's degrade
And I've lost my way
Cause its hard for me to finally
To see the shades of what we used to be
Now what the hell am I supposed to do
I'm halve as good and half as bright
As stars that shine on me tonight
Id probably be sharing them with you
Somehow all the colors
Left except the blue

My world's turn gray
I just lost my way
Cause its hard for me to finally
To see the shades of what we used to be
Now what the hell am I supposed to do
I'm halve as good and half as bright
As stars that shine on me tonight
Id probably be sharing them with you
Somehow all the colors left
Somehow all the colors left
Somehow all the colors left
Except the blue

daniel powter - cupid

Hey oh oh oh
Hey oh oh oh
Hey oh oh

You're the perfect part of me
You're the oxygen I breathe
You're a superstar
A work of art
It's electricity

You're a yes in a world of no's
You're the Beatles to my Stones
It's a sweet romance
A spotlight dance
Girl you shake me to my bones

But every now and then I'll start to slip away
I gotta' hear you say

Take me out spin me around
We can laugh when we both fall down
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight
When I sing out of key
Still play air guitar for me
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight
Don't feel all kind of right
Hey oh oh oh
Hey

And when we fight we fight
And it ain't a pretty site
Well it's not complex
It's the make up sex
Though we always get that right

Well they don't make a pill
That can give me the thrill
When you look at me
Then I hear you say

Take me out spin me around
We can laugh when we both fall down
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight
When I sing out of key
Still play air guitar for me
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight
Don't feel all kind of right

It's quite clear to me
That we were always meant to be
You're my bird
Baby I'm your bee
You got me a to z

Take me out spin me around
We can laugh when we both fall down
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight
When I sing out of key
Still play air guitar for me
Let's get stupid dancing with cupid tonight
Don't feel all kind of right

Hey Oh oh oh
Hey Oh oh oh
Hey Oh oh oh

daniel powter - next plane home

I woke up early to baby blue eyes from a far, whoah whoah
And when the sun comes through and lights you like the angel you are, whoah whoah
I know I'd you wrong when I'm with you I've been gone

With every season change, it looks the same november through to june, whoah whoah
And don't these empty streets skip a beat, the flowers don't bloom, whoah whoah
I can't believe I missed your birthday again
And I wanna come back but I just don't know when now

And I'm so lonely, you're not here with me
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home

The road that never end around the bend, I see your smile, whoah whoah
I'd swim across the sea to be with you for a while, whoah whoah
'Cause I'm made a life while i been gone
Now the way that I feel I just dont belong here

And I'm so lonely you're not here with me
Thats why I'm gonna be on the next plane home
And you're the only face I wanna see
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home

Stand around, try to make every moment
And be somebody, yeah anybody
It seems the whole world is taking me over
I need somebody to help me getting back to it

And I've always been a million miles away
But things are gonna change
I just wanna come home

And you're you're the only face I wanna see
That's why I gonna be on the next plane home
Yeah I'm taking the next plane home
Now I'm getting the next plane home
Now I'm taking the next plane home

daniel powter - come back home

My new friends are looking out for me
And I'm doing just fine
Everything is how it ought to be
But we both know that's just a lie

I hear things are going well for you
You're out there having a blast
But if it's somehow not ringing true
Know that I still want you back

(Chorus) Home, won't you come home
Back to the place where you belong
I need you home
So we're not alone
No one remembers who was wrong
I don't care where you've gone
Just come back home

Now looking down this empty hallway
You're still here in the frames
I see your face on every stranger that walks by
And I swear, I hear you call out my name

(Chorus)

And now I've watched the leaves changing color for the second time
Am I getting closer to you
Or am I running blind
I'm moving through at last backwards
Just to meet you at the start
I can't tell if I'm together
Or just falling back apart

Just falling back apart

(Chorus)

daniel powter - fly away

Hey there little baby won't you try your rise?
you tell me what I wanna know

Tell me do you still in that same bikini

You know that one more of those than other bands
the one that make me feel alive

daniel powter - not coming back

I don't believe in any longer bus
it got my motor wrong
for more than tears she cry
then you know
that it's much to much

so walk from the sky
let it rain on me
I got this sorrow fall down
so we can wash be clean
and you know
that it was much to much

not coming back again
no more advice from my so called friends
and I am coming back no more

driving away
you raise the real bill here
that you fade away
you start to deal this feel
that you know
babe babe
come on

I've been down
with the love almost flown
when I got backup
I got nothing to show
show for you
that it was much to much

I'm not coming back again
no more advice from my so called friends
and I am coming back no more

you fooled me for the last time
I walked away
for you to make up
you might take more staring now
it's telling me out from inside
and you gotta know

I'm not coming back again
no more advice for so call friends
and I'm not coming back any more
I am coming back no more

babe,I was pouring around
I won't be back to kiss you goodnight
I won't be back and you don't feel right
I should've known you make fool at me
now I was known to know
I won't be back again
I won't be back.babe,I won't be back
I won't be back
you don't feel right
I should know you make fool at me
now I was known to know
I won't be back again
