Hard to Leave

It's so hard to leave
as you're cryin' on my sleeve,
but it's about damn time I commit a crime
and do what's best for me.

I didn't think you'd take it hard
when I said goodbye to you,
but now that the time has come around,
It's so much worse to do.

Ever since I...

I took a walk,
ooh you took a run
and we started to have some fun.
I looked at you,
you looked at me
and you're the only thing I wanted to see.

Life is so long, baby,
or it's short as you let it be.
I've got to find my purpose here,
got a lot of things left to see.

Why are we running around,
pretending this is something new?
We have know, now, for so very long
This is what I had to do.

but now I recall...

 I took a walk,
ooh you took a run
and we started to have some fun.
I looked at you,
you looked at me
and you're the only thing I wanted to see.

I'm scared, it's true, I'll tell ya,
to be there all alone.
but I know you'll be there too,
in spirit or on the phone.

I know I'll be okay, baby.
I've done this once before.
But you have changed things, maybe.
Left me wanting for something more.

Ever since...

I took a walk,
ooh you took a run
and we started to have some fun.
I looked at you,
you looked at me
and you're the only thing I wanted to see.

Now I may have just been drinking,
or pissed when we had that kiss.
but when I'm thinking later,
It's that kiss I'm gonna miss.

I'm still so sure of my choice,
'cause it's what I've got to do...
but the adventure just isn't feeling good,
when I'm adventuring without you.

'cause I know...

I took a walk,
ooh you took a run
and we started to have some fun.
I looked at you,
you looked at me
and you're the only thing I wanted to see.

and it's so hard to leave,
as I'm crying on your sleeve.
It's a scary time, as I commit a crime,
and do what's best for me.

I Believe

We live each day
just like the last.
We look ahead 
and reflect on the past.

We move, we groove, 
to a reggae beat,
We hear of Jah 
as we move our feet.

Did he bring you here,
just for me?
Was there a plan, 
were you meant to be?


What is it we're here to do?
Who am I and who are you?
I don't know about deities,
but I believe you and I believe in me.
Faith or love or chance or fate,
I've no need to deliberate.

Ohhhh...

We're the future I want to see
because I believe in you and I believe in me.


There's strength in hope, 
strength in love.
Just like strength 
in faith above.

Be strong, be good, 
be just, be right,
just be you, 
and we'll walk in light.

You've changed my life, 
changed my world.
Such a thing, 
for such a girl.


What is it we're here to do?
Who am I and who are you?
I don't know about deities,
but I believe you and I believe in me.

Faith or love or chance or fate,
I've no need to deliberate.

Faith or love or chance or fate,
I can still appreciate.

We're the future I want to see
because I believe in you and I believe in me.
