Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Dreams stay with you Always on my mind I got a lust for lies Seasons bring truth When I found mine, it was summertime It’s the middle of the night and I’m so gone And I’m thinking about how much I need you But you really want somebody else Should be given the right to carry on I’m still thinking about how much I need you But you really want somebody else You’re not the one Guess you aren't the one Streets like a zoo Through a city of lights, love at first sight Silent rays of blue They slowly glide Right down my spine It’s the middle of the night and I’m so gone And I’m thinking about how much I need you But you really want somebody else Should be given the right to carry on I’m still thinking about how much I need you But you really want somebody else You’re not the one Guess you aren't the one You’re not the one Guess you aren't the one I was enjoying the ride And now we’re standing on the graveside Left unsatisfied I won’t even bother to fight I know you’re not the one You’re not the one Guess you aren't the one
