Matthew Sweet – Faith In You

September 30th, 2007

I’m looking all around me
And there’s so much room to move
But I don’t believe in miracles
Should I put my faith in you
I lay down in the evening
And I look up at the stars
But I don’t believe in miracles
Should I put my faith in ours
I wake up in the morning
And I look up at the blue
For something deep inside of me
Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you

What do I have to believe in
Now that everything else was a lie
Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you
What do I have to believe in
Now that everything else was a lie

Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you

I lay down in the evening
And I look up at the stars
But I don’t believe in miracles
Should I put my faith in ours
I wake up in the morning
And I look up at the blue
For something deep inside of me
Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you
Should I put my faith in you

Matthew Sweet – Falling

September 30th, 2007

Falling

The further you go
The farther you’ve gone
It doesn’t mean you were made to hang on
And you’re falling falling falling
But you can’t let go

Whether you’re cold, hot, bottled or not
This is the day for which you have fought
And you’re calling calling calling
But you can’t get home

And every day takes something away
Until there’s nothing left to say
No single world can deliver you love
No understanding no sound from above
And nothing to do
It’s nothing to you

You picture a time that’s other than yours
As soon as you have said it’s hers
And you act like you believe it
But you’re not so sure

And every day takes something away
Until there’s nothing left to say
No single world can deliver you love
No understanding

And every day takes something away
Until there’s nothing left to say
No single world can deliver you love
No understanding no sound from above
And nothing to do – it’s nothing to you

The further you go
The farther you’ve gone
It doesn’t mean you were made to hang on
And you’re falling falling falling
But you can’t let go

And every day takes something away
Until there’s nothing left to say
No single world can deliver you love
No understanding no sound from above
No one to watch you rising up from below
Telling you secrets you don’t want to know
And nothing to do – it’s nothing to you

Nothing to you
It’s nothing to you – nothing to you
Nothing to do – nothing to do
(fade out)

Matthew Sweet – Future Shock

September 30th, 2007

Future Shock

I never wanted to be more than passing time
And you would rather disappear than cross the line
And I’m only waiting for you
‘Cause I can’t decide
If you’re only saying one thing
With something else inside

From the start there is a coldness in my eye
Until the moment that I speak you won’t know why
But you never ask the question
You just close the door
And you never get the answer
I was waiting for

Maybe that’s someplace time won’t take you
Looking around I could replace you

Wanting for something you have never had

But you never ask the question
You just close the door
And you never get the answer
I was waiting for

Maybe that’s someplace time won’t take you
Looking around I could replace you
Wanting for something you have never had

You’ve never had
You’ve never had
You’ve never had

Matthew Sweet – Get Older

September 30th, 2007

Get Older

Who cares if they don’t think your cool?
They make everything about rules
And your older than that now
Get older
The world will fall into its place
You may be sad
When you get older
You might be happy just to stay

Who cares if you don’t know what you want
‘Cause they don’t know what they’ve got
And you cannot resist
Get older
Your memories won’t slip away
And you’ll be glad
When you get older
That you were happy for today
Who cares?

Get older
The world will fall into its place
You may be sad
When you get older
You might be happy just to stay
Resist
Get older
Your memories won’t slip away
And you’ll be glad
When you get older
That you were happy for today
Who cares?

If you don’t know what you want
If you don’t know what you want
If you don’t know what you want
If you don’t know what you want

Matthew Sweet – Girlfriend

September 30th, 2007

Girlfriend

I want to love somebody
I hear you need somebody to love
Oh I want to love somebody
I hear you’re looking
For somebody to love

‘Cause you need to be back
In the arms of a good friend
And I need to be back
In the arms of a girlfriend

I didn’t know nobody
And then I saw you coming my way
Oh I didn’t know nobody
And then I saw you coming my way

Don’t you need to be back
In the arms of a good friend?
Oh ’cause honey believe me
I’d sure love to call you
My girlfriend

[solo]

Don’t you need to be back
In the arms of a good friend?
Oh ’cause honey believe me
I’d sure love to call you
My girlfriend

‘Cause you
Got a good thing going baby
You only need somebody to love
Oh you got a good thing going
You’re only looking
For someone to love
‘Cause you need to get back
In the arms of a good friend

And I’m never gonna set you free
No I’m never gonna set you free

Matthew Sweet – Giving It Back

September 30th, 2007

Giving It Back

Your depth of sadness was a gift
And for a while I cherished it
I’m tired of wasting my time away
So I’m giving it back to you
Giving it back to you

It takes a lot to keep you going
Wearing me down without you knowing
My will to fight has gone away
So I’m giving it back to you
Giving it back to you

I’m tired of wasting my time away
So I’m giving it back to you
Giving it back to you

I’m tired of wasting my time away
So I’m giving it back to you
Giving it back to you

Giving it back

Matthew Sweet – Half Asleep

September 30th, 2007

Half Asleep

Shut your eyes
And you’ll remember like the first time what it meant to see
Take your time
Any reason why you can’t go on is fine with me

As long as we don’t sit in silence
I don’t want to see the whole thing wasted
As long as we have time to be…Half Asleep
Half asleep

It takes a while
I’d give everything I’ve got to know how many days
I don’t accuse you
‘Cause any problem that there is I put in my own way

But I don’t want to sit in silence
I don’t want to see the whole thing wasted
As long as we have time to be…Half Asleep
Half asleep

We always have to say we’re sorry
But every time we say we’re sorry
It’s closer to the real thing

We stay here some
‘Cause we aren’t going to get much closer to a real answer;
The sleeping cured you;
Ya know tomorrow we can waste the day and start another.

As long as we don’t sit in silence
I don’t want to see the whole thing wasted
As long as we have time to be…Half Asleep
Half asleep
I don’t wanna sit in silence
I don’t wannt see the whole thing wasted
As long as we have time to be…Half Asleep
Half asleep

Matthew Sweet – Having A Bad Dream

September 30th, 2007

Having A Bad Dream

I like a little pain
If it wasn’t true
There’d be nothing that
I had kept from you
(Wonder whom I guess)
We might be alive
Think it only sane
I’ve seen them walking

When I was alone
I talked as much like you
As my words would allow
Like you showed me to
Touching in our sleep
Moving very slow
* in a daze

We ought to know

These words of mine
Can only start to climb
Those thoughts in my head
Break on and on
I’m having a bad dream
So it isn’t true
Anybody else
Could have looked like you
Pull me by surprise
Laughing like you do
Looking in my eyes
Only passing…

Matthew Sweet – Heaven And Earth

September 30th, 2007

Heaven And Earth

When it shines the sun is hot
And what you need you ain’t got
Heaven and earth
Are hardly worth it
We’ll begin the race by living in ecstacy

You may have your mind to show
But you’ve got no place to go
Heaven and earth
Are hardly worth it
We’ll begin the race by living a life of ecstacy
We’ll begin the race by living in ecstacy

Will you share with me to live
What nobody wants to give
Heaven and earth
Are hardly worth it
We’ll begin the race by living a life of ecstacy
We’ll begin the race by ripping a rib for u from me
We’ll begin the race by living a life of ecstacy
We’ll begin the race by living in ecstacy

Matthew Sweet – Hide

September 30th, 2007

Hide

Now you’ll have to be
Hurt when you think of me
With vision but you can’t see far

You hide every thing you can
But the world keeps breaking through
Anywhere you run
And it always will
Before I knew I had you you were gone

Fake too close to the truth
Break when I look at you
And feel how I never knew why

I hide every thing I can
But the world keeps breaking through

Anywhere I run
And it always will
Before I knew I had you you were gone

Fake too close to the truth
Break when I look at you oh

You hide everything you can
But the world keeps breaking through
Anywhere you run
And it always will
Before I knew I had you
You were gone
