bubblegum factory

bubblegum factory
bubblegum factory
bubblegum factory
that's where I wanna' be

bubblegum factory
bubblegum factory
bubblegum factory
let's go you and me
that's where I wanna' be

bubblegum factory yeah...



want you around

can you come on down?
let's do nothing all over town
spend the morning watch our coffee swirl the sky

if you don't wanna' talk
we can hold each other's hand and walk
this sweet feeling doesn't need to make a sound

i want you around
i want you around
always need you nearest my direction
i want you around

you can even sleep
i'm just happy counting all of your sheep
though they may stray girl
rest assured I can be found

i want you around
i want you around
always need you nearest my direction
i want you around

i don't mean to trap you
i know every heart needs space
but can you save me a little place

i want you around
i want you around
i want you around
i want you around
always need you nearest my direction
close to your affection
nearest my direction
i want you around

i want you around
i want you around
i want you around




downtown girl

i don't care if you all know
i'm in love and yeah it shows
sunshiny smile, left of the dial
she's my, she's my downtown girl

how she found me I can't say
doesn't matter anyway
i'm lost and i'm found, on sale at Sounds
she's my, she's my downtown girl

man, I tell you she buys me records
and we sleep all day
stay out all night; "it's only right", she says

wares a CB's baby tee
just as tight as it can be
salvation buys, Kiss army eyes
she's my, she's my downtown...

she talks at the tv
throws stuff at the radio
she hates when that song
"plays on too long", she says

man, I tell you she buys me records
and we sleep all day
stay out all night, "it's only right", she says

never thought I'd see the day
when I'd find someone to stay
noon on the couch, my beautiful slouch
she's my, she's my downtown girl
she's my, she's my downtown girl




rockin' mood

baby's in a rockin' mood
there's no stopping her now
couldn't if you wanted, how?

she's dancing on the parlor floor
takes my hand and spins some more
twirls me like a top
and Lord knows what she's got in store

baby's in a rockin' mood
there's no stopping her now
couldn't if you wanted, how?

she paints my lips a ruby red
"now try a little blush," she says
i look just like a clown
but there's no frowns just smiles instead

baby's in a rockin' mood
there's no stopping her now
couldn't if you wanted, how?

it's true, if fun's contagious
now I've got that bug too...

baby's in a rockin' mood
there's no stopping her now
couldn't if you wanted, how?

baby's in a rockin' mood
got no worries
baby's in a rockin' mood
spitfire flurry




how about always

feel it's time to change our point of view
throw off all our selfish ways
think "me and you"

how 'bout something just a bit defined
i don't mean to scare you baby
how 'bout something yours and mine

let's ease into it somehow
we can toss some words around
and see if something flies
try them on for size

"lately" is far too long
"sometimes", "often" sounds so wrong
how about "always"

another weekend has just slipped on by
now i'm counting down the minuets baby
can't we feel this high all the time

let's ease into it somehow
we can toss some words around
and see if something flies
try them on for size

"lately" is far too long
"sometimes", "often" sounds so wrong
how about "always"

we don't have to call the preacher
we don't have to phone your mom
we could catch that double feature
forget those late night, sad goodbyes
and let the time just fly

"lately" is far too long
"sometimes", "often" sounds so wrong
"lately" is far too long
"sometimes", "often" sounds so wrong, wrong
how about "always"




take our time

the sun breaks through the clouds
and shines upon the crowd of well-wishers
as church bells start to chime
the preacher gives the sign
our day is here and it feels fine
we can finally take our time

slowly down the aisle
we make our way in style
sunday best and flash bulbs clicking loud
even dad looks proud
our moment's here and it feels fine
we can finally take our time

no skippin' town, no sneakin' around
those stolen teenage moments are found today

standing hand in hand
time to make a stand
for the love they said was just so wrong
but we knew it all along
it's right and true and it feels fine
we can finally take our time
we can finally take our... time

all i want

don't have no fancy car
even if i did i wouldn't stray too far
i'd just circle 'round

don't have no house on the hill
just a rented room, a place they send my bills
and i'll gladly pay, so long as i can stay

it's all i want and all i'll ever need

my girl don't ware fancy clothes
just a blue jean baby queen and Lord ya know
what man could want more, than a princess to adore

she's all i want and all i'll ever need

all i want and all i'll ever need
is plain to see and it's right in front of me

all i want and all i'll ever need
is plain to see and it's right in front of me

it's all i want and all i'll ever need
it's all i want and all i'll ever need
she's all i want and i could never leave




this little girl

she wears her heart upon her sleeve
beautifully complex in it's weave
vibrant colors red to blue
fade like dreams that don't come true
but i know that they do
and i'll tell you

this little girl of mine
one day i know she will shine
this little girl of mine
she'll find all she hopes to find
forget yesterday

throwing her bag down on the floor
keys still hanging from the door
tripping locks at every turn
screams "when will i ever learn"
but that degree has been earned
and i know that

this little girl of mine
one day i know she will shine
this little girl of mine
she'll find all she hopes to find
forget yesterday

she thinks the world has beat her
but i know it won't defeat her
she is on her way

morning brings another day
one more chance that's here to stay
nothing stands in her way
now i tell you

this little girl of mine
one day i know she will shine
this little girl of mine
she'll find all she hopes to find
forget yesterday
forget yesterday

yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone...



carry my heart

turn off the phone and tv
carry my heart, carry my heart away
come on you know it's easy
carry my heart, carry my heart

let's go walk, hold hands and talk
say the things we never say
and carry my heart, carry my heart away

just lie to the boss he won't know
carry my heart, carry my heart away
you'll bulldoze your desk tomorrow
carry my heart, carry my heart

let's go walk, hold hands and talk
say the things we never say
and carry my heart, carry my heart away

forget the friends and all the party people
girl we need to be alone
don't worry the city's lights will still be burning bright
when we get home

let's go walk, hold hands and talk
say the things we never say
and carry my heart, carry my heart away
carry my heart, carry my heart away

carry my heart away
carry my heart




sunny day

bring back all of those happy days
bring back all of those times
bring back all of those happy days
can you come out and play
on this sunny day

Kiss card clicked in the spoke of my wheel
wind blew back my hair, no worries, no cares

you sped up right beside
with a smile so sweet and a banana seat
paradise on the asphalt steamy street

bring back all of those happy days
bring back all of those times
bring back all of those happy days
can you come out and play
on this sunny day

now we're older we work and we slave
your tired eyes they say "i need a holiday"
immaturity's waiting so what do ya say

bring back all of those happy days
bring back all of those times
bring back all of those happy days
can you come out and play
on this sunny day

oh, baby come and take my hand, let's see
do those two little kids still live inside of you and me

bring back all of those happy days
can you come out and play...

(bring it on back) bring back all of those happy days
(bring it on back) bring back all of those times
(bring it on back) bring back all of those happy days
can you come out and play, like we used to play
on this sunny day




walking on air

don't stare, we're just walking on air
she's the one that keeps me hummin'
she's the one that keeps me strummin' now

it's not fair, but we don't care
floating high just seen from afar
drifting, lifting, circle the stars
no fear of crashing down, tonight

don't stare, we're just walking on air
she's the one that keeps me hummin'
she's the one that keeps me strummin' now

forget the boat, we'll just float
surfing high up on every wave
lifeguards sleeping, there's no one to save
no chance of drowning now, tonight

don't stare, we're just walking on air
she's the one that keeps me hummin'
she's the one that keeps me strummin' now

we're one in the same
she's flowing through my own veins
and i don't care who thinks it's wrong, tonight

don't stare, we're just walking on air
she's the one that keeps me hummin'
she's the one that keeps me strummin' now
she's the one that keeps me strummin' now
now...
now...
