Lyrics

Love Me Anyway
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics and Music)

I've given you all that I have
But I want it all back now
You were something I came across in the sand
Look at me and turn away
I'll be gone without a trace
Oh oh oh

You could love me anyway
Try for me anyway
You could love me love me anyway
You could love ooh love me
Love me anyway

I wanna know where you stand
But all you do is stare at me through your
Sunken eyes it's like the dead of night
But it feels like this world is gonna change
Like these chains won't stay for long
Oh

You could love me anyway
Try for me anyway
You could love me love me anyway
You could love ooh love me
Love me anyway

I can hear the tone of your voice in the light in your eyes
But I know you can see who I am
Yeah

Chorus out

Secrets
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics and Music)

Mm mm mm uh oh uh oh

Well I burned a few bridges in my time
And I've clowned around I've joked about your mama in the summertime
It falls to the winter again uh huh
And I climbed a mountain and I turned around again
Just to reclaim my history it should remain a mysta a mystery uh oh uh

Never thought that I would tell you much
Just a, a stranger on the bus I got
Secrets to keep and I thought I had nothin to hide
Until there was someone to confide in

Win some you lose some if you try you can confuse them
I don't want solicitation I don't need no temptation
I request an explanation from you ooo ooh
Really quite alarming and oh so disarming to
See all the secrets that I have in me for the world to see
Yea yeah yeah

Never thought that I would tell you much
Just a, a stranger on the bus I got

Secrets to keep and I thought I had nothin to hide
Until there was someone to confide in
Secrets to keep from your brother's mother's friend
I got secrets that I should keep mmm
Mm mm hmm mm mmm hmm

Secrets to keep and I thought I had nothin to hide
Until there was someone to confide in yeah hey yeah yeah
Secrets that I should keep thought I had nothin to hide
Oh I got secrets that I should keep uh uh uh

I got secrets to keep
I got secrets to keep
Uh oh
Secrets that I should keep

Won't Bring You Down
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics, Music)

Don't you see don't you see me here
A single tear it falls down with the rest of them
Why don't you go why can't you go
Do somethin anything for me

But I won't bring you down
Down down down down with me
I'm not the first and I won't be I won't be the last
To feel to feel this way

Life is full of drunken lies and late night sighs
So rest assured no one can see me from down here
It's like I've fallen I've fallen so far down
And I'm just there well I'm barely there

But I won't bring you down
Down down down down with me
I'm not the first and I won't be I won't be the last
To feel to feel this way

Well I used to think that this would be
So easy yeah well it's not cake
No no no no noo

But I won't bring you down
Down down down down down down down down with me
I'm not the first and I won't be I won't be the last
To feel to feel this way
To feel to feel this way

Ooh's

To feel to feel this way

Broken Down & Blue
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics and Music)

You made a promise to me
But baby I'm not gonna hold you to it
Cause I can't stand to believe again
And I know you don't mean to hurt me
But it never stopped you before oh oh oh
Hey yeah eh yeah yeah

Broken down and blue
Oh why does that leave me
Comin' back to you oo oo
Broken down and blue

If you wanna play the fool well
You're you're only foolin yourself
Learn a few more rules of the game that I
I don't intend to play yeah yeah
Hey yeah eh yeah yeah

Broken down and blue
Oh why does that leave me
Comin back to you oo oo

Broken down and blue

(Solo)

Chorus out

Say Goodbye
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics and Music)

She walks alone
In the shopping mall wherever she can
Ooh but she feels she feels so isolated
You should see the moonlight it's shining
Shining across her face yeah
She's so beautiful she's so damn beautiful

Say goodbye to yourself
And everything that you once knew ooh
Say goodbye to me and you ooh
Say goodbye
I'm not happy I'm not sad
Say goodbye say goodbye

She's the one who says all the wrong things for the right reasons
But who am I to say she hates herself ooh for hating him
She wants to run run run just run run
As fast as she can she wants run run
Till she can't run no more

Say goodbye to yourself
And everything that you once knew ooh
Say goodbye to me and you ooh
Say goodbye
I'm not happy I'm not sad
Say goodbye say goodbye

(Scat)

Say goodbye to yourself
And everything that you once knew ooh
Say goodbye to me and you ooh
Say goodbye
I'm not happy I'm not sad
Say goodbye say goodbye

Harmony
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics and Music)

Still it remains even though it's gone
You cant see it but I guarantee I know you're gonna feel it
Are you happy now? Are you happy she says?
Don't answer too quickly now and take time and stop before you speak
Sit up straight and face the world with your open heart your open arms oh

Harmony
Peace love and happiness
And don't forget your harmony
Harmony

You give me clarity about
Who I am and who I want to be
Oh but eventually she says you gotta learn
You're learnin to love yourself

Harmony
Peace love and happiness
And don't forget your harmony
Harmony hey eh yeaah

(Guitar Solo)

You say when you can love yourself
It'll all just gonna fall into its place
Out I'll be there when you're down when you're
On top of the world oh

Harmony
Peace love and happiness
And don't forget that harmony
Eh harmony ee ee harmony

(Scat)

Should Have Known
Lelia Broussard (Lyrics and Music)

Why do you do the things you do
If you never cared about me
Oh you played me for a fool
And it's not fair to pretend when all along you knew

I should have known you would turn out this way
I should have realized
I should have known you would turn out this way
I should have I should have known

You stuck me with a burden baby
And don't you deny it
You tried to win me over oh oh
Hey hey yeah hey yeah hey yeah

I should have known you would turn out this way
I should have realized
I should have known you would turn out this way
I should have I should have known

Hey yeah o yeah hey yeah

I don't understand how you could
Just tell me why and I'll be on my way

I should have known you would turn out this way
I should have realized
I should have known you would turn out this way
I should have I should have known

I should have I should have known
I should have I should have known

I should have I should have known
