Nates Songbook

Time for me to fly

I've been wasting my time
I've been losing my mind
I've been running races
Still don't know what I've been chasing
But my eyes still can see
Bluer skies that wait for me
And I'm on my way


Time for me to fly
Time for me to soar
Time for me to open up my heart and knock on heavens door
Time for me to live
It's time for me to sing
Time for me to lay down all my worries and I'll spread my wings
Time for me to fly


The earth can be a heavy ride
When the clouds are in your eyes
But I feel a calling
I will rise, I won't be falling
And I'll escape the gravity
And I'll reach my destiny
And I'll fly away


Time for me to fly
Time for me to soar
Time for me to open up my heart and knock on heavens door
Time for me to live
It's time for me to sing
Time for me to lay down all my worries and I'll spread my wings
Time for me to fly


The gates of heaven will open wide
I will be
I will rise
There won't be compromise
As I take to the open skies

I will fly away
I will fly away
I will fly away

Please be mine


They come and go
But they don't know
That you are my
Beautiful

I try to come
Closer with you
But they all say
We won't make it through

But i'll be there forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our dreams
Will come true
I will not disappoint you
I will be right there for you
'till the end
The end of time
Please be mine

Oooooooooohhhh!!

I'm in and out
Of love with you
Tryin' to find
If it's really true
nanana

How can i
Prove my love
If they all think
I'm not good enough

But i'll be there forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our dreams
Will come true
I will not disappoint you
I will be right there for you
'till the end
The end of time
Please be mine
yeah! Oooooohhh!!

I can't stop the rain from fallin'
Can't stop my heart from callin' you
It's callin' you

I can't stop the rain from fallin'
Can't stop my heart from callin' you
It's callin' you

I can't stop the rain from fallin'
Can't stop my heart from callin' you
It's callin' you

But i'll be there forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our dreams
We will come true
I will not disappoint you
I will be right there for you
'till the end
The end of time
Please be mine

(Ooooooooooohhhhh!!!)
I can't stop the rain from fallin'
Can't stop my heart from callin' you
It's callin' you

I can't stop the rain from fallin'
Can't stop my heart from callin' you
It's callin' you

Higher Love

Think about it
there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it
Life is wasted time
Look inside you're heart and I'll look inside of mine

Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world what is fair?
We walk the line and we try to see
Fallen behind what could be?

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

The worlds turning
and we're just hanging on
Facing out fear
standing out there alone
Yearning, and its real to me
Must be someone
who's feeling for me

Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world what is fair?
We walk the line and we try to see
Fallen behind what could be?

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
I've got higher love, higher love

I will wait, forever
I'm not too late for bed
Until then I'll sing my song
To spend the night alone

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I've been thinking of?

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of

Bring me a higher love (Bring me a higher love)
Bring me a higher love (Whoo!)
Bring me a higher love (Bring me a higher love)
Bring me a higher love

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love

7:05

We had a lot of good times when we were together
And I thought we'd last forever, you and I
Eyeing for so long I couldn't wait to get you're phone call
Dreaming 'bout you makes me feel alright
Tonight you called me on the phone
Said you had to stay at home
Is there something I should know?


I was fine till 7:05
Till she walked out the door and right out of my life
If you're gone ill move on
But it only would have taken two seconds to say
Goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (woahwoo)

The night after you're phone call me and friends were hanging at the mall
I was not believing what I saw
(Whoa) holding hands with him and sitting closer then six inches
Hoping she's not gunna kiss him now

How can I call you a friend, you stood me up in the end
I know that it's over


I was fine till 7:05
Till she walked out the door and right out of my life
If you're gone I'll move on
But it only would of taken two seconds to say
Goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (woahwoo)

Don't keep telling me that yore sorry now
But let me tell you how much this hurts me too
(Yeah ooo)


I was fine till 7:05
Till she walked out the door and right out of my life
If you're gone ill move on
But it only would have taken two seconds to say
Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye (woahwoo)


I was fine till 7:05
Till she walked out the door and right out of my life
If you're gone ill move on
But it only would have taken two seconds to say
Goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (goodbye) Goodbye (woahwoo)

It only would of taken to seconds to say
(Good bye goodbye) Good bye (good bye) Good Bye (woo)

Appreciate


There's a man dying on the side of the road,
Won't make it home tonight.
He was driving fast on his cell phone,
That's how he lived his life.
While he was hangin' by a thread
These were the final words he said

My girl turns sweet sixteen today,
She's beautiful, so beautiful.
It might get rough sometimes
But I hope she keeps her faith (hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I'd grabbed the chance to say to her
Life is too short so take that time and appreciate

There's a women crying on the kitchen floor,
She got a call tonight
Now she's trembling outside her daughter's door
Walks in and holds her tight
Wondering how and where to start,
Is there a way to shield her heart?

My girl turns sweet sixteen today,
She's beautiful, so beautiful
It might get rough sometimes
But I hope she keeps her faith.(hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I'd grabbed the chance to say to her

Any but a loving way
Get hurt along the way
Don't be afraid to open up
And use the time you have before it fades
Show your love today

My girl turns sweet sixteen today,
She's beautiful, so beautiful.
It might get rough sometimes
but I hope she keeps her faith.(hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I'd grabbed the chance to say to her

Life is too short so take that time and appreciate.

Crazy Kind of Crush on You


First day at school
I was tryin to play it cool
Chillin with my friends, tryin to pretend that I didn't notice you
3 rows down, second to the left
With your big brown eyes, and your brand new dress
Right then I saw my dream come true, yeah
Cause my knees got weak, knocked off my feet
Tried but I couldn't find the words to speak
Can't let go, my heart says whoa
Girl I gotta let you know

Cause I got this awesome, amazing crazy kinda crush on you
And though I try to forget you it doesn't matter what I do
On my mind all the time, it's a crime
I can't deny it's true
Cause I got this awesome, amazing crazy kinda crush on you

Crazy, crazy
Crush on you

On the bus ride home
Finally saw you were alone
So I took my chance, asked you to the dance
And I prayed you wouldn't say no
Oh I just can't wait for Friday night
Gonna hold your hand when the time is right
Can't help but let my feelings show, yeah

Gonna walk you home, talk on the phone
Tell you how I'm feelin when we're all alone
Gonna jump and shout, sing it out loud
Girl you know there'll be no doubt

Cause I got this awesome, amazing crazy kinda crush on you(crazy kinda crush on you)
And though I try to forget you it doesn't matter what I do
On my mind all the time, it's a crime
I can't deny it's true
Cause I got this awesome, amazing crazy kinda crush on you

Crazy, crazy(crazy, crazy)
Crush on you

(Whoo)
(Hey Yeah)
(Crazy kinda crush on you)

Cause my knees got weak, knocked off my feet
Tried but I couldn't find the words to speak
Can't let go, my heart says whoa
Girl I gotta let you know

Cause I got this awesome, amazing crazy kinda crush on you
And though I try to forget you it doesn't matter what I do
On my mind all the time, it's a crime

Crazy, crazy
Crush on you

Crush on you

A little bit longer



Got the news today
But they said I had to stay
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
When I thought it'd all been done
When I thought it'd all been said
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine

But you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
Everytime you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know

All this time goes by
Still no reason why
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
Waitin' on a cure
But none of them are sure
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine

But you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
And everytime you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know
No no

Two, three, four!

Yeah!
And you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
And everytime you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No
Yeah
Woah!

[Oooohhh]

So I wait 'till kingdom come
All the highs and lows are gone
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
I'll be
Fine...

Turn Right



Pick up all your tears
Throw em in your backseat
Leave without a second glance
Somehow I'm to blame
For this never-ending racetrack you call life

Turn right
Into my arms
Turn right
You won't be alone
You might
Fall off this track sometimes
Hope to see you on the finish line

Driving all your friends
At a speed they cannot follow
Soon you will be on your own
Somehow I'm to blame
For this never-ending racetrack you call life

Turn right (turn right)
Into my arms
Turn right (turn right)
You won't be alone
You might (you might)
Fall off this track sometimes
Hope to see you at the finish line

I did all I could
And I gave
Everything
But you had to go your way
And that road was not for me

Turn right
Into my arms
Turn right
You won't be alone
You might (you might)
Fall off this track sometimes
Hope to see you at the finish line

Black Keys



She walks away
The colors fade to gray
Every precious moment now a waste

She hits the gas
Hoping it would pass
But the red light starts to flash
It's time to wait

And the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
And the lights out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys showing me a world I never knew, no
A world I never knew

She hates the sun
Cause it proves she's not alone
And the world doesn't revolve around her soul
She loves the sky cause it validates her pride
Never lets her know when she is wrong

And the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
And the lights out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys showing me a world I never know

Yeah
The walls are closing in
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let them inside

Cause the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
Oh-oh
And the lights out never had this bright a glow
And the black keys showing me a world I never know

Don't let em get
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
No
Don't let em get yeah
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Oh-oh
Inside of your head

Sometimes a fight is better black and white

Fly with me


If time was still,
the sun would never, never find us,
we could light up

The sky tonight,
i could see the world through your eyes
and leave it all behind



If it´s you and me forever,
if it´s you and me right now,
that´d be alright, be alright.

If we´re chasing stars to lose our shadow,
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out find,
so won´t you fly with me?

...[Oh yeah
Gotta fly with me now]...



Now the past has come alive
and give it meaning,
and a reason

To give all i can,
to believe once again



If it´s you and me forever,
if it´s you and me right now,
that´d be alright, be alright.

If we´re chasing stars to lose our shadow,
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out find,
so won´t you fly with me?



Maybe you were just afraid,
knowing you were miles away,
from the place where you needed to be,
and last right here with me



If it´s you and me forever,
you and me right now,
that´d be alright.

If we´re chasing stars to lose our shadow,
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out find,
so won´t you fly with me?

If it´s you and me forever,
if it´s you and me right now,
that´d be alright, be alright.

If we´re chasing stars to lose our shadow,
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out find,
so won´t you fly,fly,fly with me?
