Times are hard for me and you I know
It's time for me to let you go
To watch you go
And I'll sit back and wonder
What my life was like
When I had your eyes
Locked onto mine
Oh yeah

And if you're still waiting
I'm sure I'm done debating
If it's right to love you
If I could only repay you
For taking up all your sweet time
For taking up all your sweet time

And if I had to second guess
I'd still be stuck in our mess
My regrets are something
I will always have
And I will sit back
And I'll wonder
What my life was like
When I had your lips
On my finger tips
Oh yeah

And if you're still waiting
I'm sure I'm done debating
If it's right to love you
If I could only repay you
For taking up all your sweet time
For taking up all your sweet time

The studio version of "Love On A Lifeline" is posted on my MYSPACE MUSIC PLAYER! ADD it to your profile players and tell your friends :)



Lyrics:

Never ever thought i'd find another lover
Didn't think I'd ever need another
You were the one for me
But suddenly you changed
And you didn't even want me
But it's okay
You won't love him like you love me
You were the one for me

You played me like a fool
And you thought that it was easy
You had to let me know
In the letter that you wrote me
I don't wanna watch you walk away
There's nothing to say but, baby

I don't wanna miss you no more (No more)
And I don't wanna see you walking through that door
(Through that door, baby)
I can't take it anymore
Got to let you know that I'm over you
'Cause it's a love on a lifeline
Won't spend a lifetime
Nothing's gonna change my mind
Change my mind

Never thought it would be like this
And I never ever thought
It would end with a kiss like this
I don't want you no more
Now it's time that I walk it out
Get a hold of myself
And I'm doing it without you
I just don't want you no more

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

'Cause it's done and I'm manning up
You could run away with him
I'm sure that you've had enough
I don't wanna miss you, baby
No, I don't wanna love you, baby
And this one's ending with a heart attack
See, I gave you my love
And I'm finally taking it back
I don't wanna watch you walk away
There's nothing to say but, baby

I don't wanna miss you no more
I don't wanna miss you no more

Chorus

Ain't nothing going to change my mind
Change my mind
Cause baby it's a love on a lifeline

Hey lovers and friends! So I just posted a cover of "Pretty Girl" by DAVID RYAN HARRIS. David Ryan Harris is an amazing singer / songwriter who also plays guitar to back up the AMAZING John Mayer.

This song has been one of my favorite songs for the past two years. It's a song that I wish I wrote. I was inspired to cover it on youtube and finally decided that I wanted to track it for real.

I hope you guys like the song / cover as much as I do. I'm super excited about it. So tell all your friends and add it to your profiles!

I want to thank all you guys for the sweet messages and inspiring comments. It's you guys that keep music alive.

Here are the lyrics. Gentlemen, if you have a crush on a Pretty Girl. This is your tune.

"Pretty Girl" (written by David Ryan Harris)
Most girls, wish that they had your eyes

And boys secretly fantasize

But me i am just mesmerized

By your every word and movement



You are as close as a girl can be

To ideal somehow you disagree

The world sees perfection but all you see

Is room for more improvement



Silly girl pretty girl

If you dont see

What a spell your sweet love has cast on me

Girl and i pray that never will this trance be broken



I melt, in your mouth when u talk to me

I wanna kiss you so slow and sweet

You are, the book that i want to read

In braille cover to cover



You're so deep inside

You're my DNA

You're how tall i am

You're how much i weigh

You're the reason someone had to pen the phrase:

"To know her is to love her"



Silly girl pretty girl

If you dont see

What a spell your sweet love has cast on me

Girl and i pray that never will this trance be broken



Everything you do is like a movie scene

Every pose you strike is from some magazine

And i want to turn your pages



Silly girl pretty girl

If you dont see

What a spell your sweet love has cast on me



Silly girl pretty girl

If you dont see

What a spell your sweet love has cast on me

Girl and i pray that never will this trance be broken



No no, no no



Silly girl pretty girl

If you dont see

What a spell your sweet love has cast on me

Girl and i pray that never will this trance be broken

So this is it
The final curtain call
My time here is over
I wish it was for good
This is goodbye
The final wave of hand
I wish I had the nerve
To say that I'm never coming back
It was a fight
I cried myself to sleep
For so many nights, I can't believe
That I've grown to be a boy
With nothing to my name
Except a guitar and no one else to blame

But I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
I hope you know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
But with you in my life,
I don't think I ever can.

The runway is waiting
And I'm stuck debating
If I ever want to see you again
Cause I've grown numb
This city means nothing without the love we used to have
And this is goodbye
The final wave of hand
I wish I had the nerve
To say that I'm never coming back again

But I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
I hope you know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
But with you in my life,
I don't think I ever can,
I ever can.

Oh I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
I hope you know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
I hope you know I try
Hope you know I try, to become a better man
But with you in my life,
I don't think I ever can.

Hey everybody!
YOU GUYS VOTED and the winner of the piano song poll was "Try" from the Hearbreaker EP.
Alan Ladan and I worked hard on this song and we couldn't be more happy with it.

I want to thank everyone who voted. It was a close call between this song and "Over The Moon".

Make sure to tell all your friends and pass on the news. I'm really excited about this version of the song. I hope you guys will enjoy it as much as I do.

Don't forget to ADD the song to your music players.

Love you guys so much.
-Jesse B.
