Eventually 01:57
Eventually Today will become tomorrow And when there's no more time left to borrow We'll have yesterday Eventually The rain coming down will slow up And what fell apart we'll sew up On this new day Eventually Our hearts they won't be so shattered Anything that mattered Won't matter at all anymore And we'll sit down Over coffee and whatever else And put things up, on the shelf One by one Oh what a day that'll be Eventually

I saw true love today And I watched her walk away It was so hard hard to believe It wasn't what I expected I saw true love today And I watched her walk away It was so painful But it was right for the times And they had love in their minds And let each other grow over time It wasn't what I expected it to be I saw true love today And I watched two people part their ways
3.
So tell me I'm wrong And now that I'm here do you want me To turn back around Or do you want me back? I won't lead you on And I won't make a promise that I can't keep no But girl I'll be gone If you don't want me back I know things went wrong But I still think that we have the chance to Turn them around So do you want me back?

There's a girl In my neighborhood And every time I see her Can't tell the bad from good Writes a letter in the dust on someone's car When I asked what she was up to she said nothing at all Ya she's breaking hearts Any chance she gets I know a girl Never got the love that she deserved Every time I see her Can't tell the bad from good Now she's breaking hearts Now she's breaking hearts Ya she's breaking my heart And I Won't ever be enough
5.
You said you don't wanna be in love Not right now You said you're not even sure you know how Anymore Somewhere along the way The first time became the last Just like the holidays They always come and go too fast You said you might be ready to love again You said you're thinking bout' letting someone in But somewhere along the way You stepped on broken glass You need a holiday you know you work too hard to last Oh she said she's Ready to love again Ready to love again She said she's ready to love again Ready to love again Said she's ready to love again Ready to love again
6.
I'm going home with regrets tonight Grip the wheel tight As I replay your smile in my head again Now I'm just wondering What it would have been like If I had said Even something as simple as hello And if I had let You know Oh you were special I know it Knew it then and I Keep thinking again and again what I passed up Because a past love Went all bad Now all we have Is a glance from across the room
7.
I've done a few things And I know that I could have done better I've said a few words Wish that I could take back every letter Since you've been gone babe Been someone I can't look back at in the mirror But baby that's not me when I'm with you I said that's not me when I'm with you I told her I loved her Then I left in the night without warning We had a good thing But I wasn't there in the morning I know it's wrong I don't feel a thing Maybe I'm broken But baby that's not me when I'm with you I said that's not me when I'm with you That's not me when I'm with you

Jenny 01:30
Jenny Wall to wall well she decorated my bedroom Had to tear it all down just to get you out of my head You Jenny All in all well we're probably better off like this now Most nights I've been wishing you'd come pick me off the ground Bad I want ya Oh it's hard to Hold someone else til' it's 3am in the morning girl We used to sleep through entire days Now I'm wondering if I've been replaced And if someone else calling you baby now If someone else calling you baby now
9.
Do you ever think about us How it used to be Riding around to your auditions In my broke down jeep No my love was all that I could give But it couldn't save us from Los Angeles Lost you to the hills with a big double O Hollywood sign looking from above down below Oh my love was all that I could give But it couldn't save us from Los Angeles So I... I wish you well I wish you well I wish you well
