I WON'T TELL ANYONE YOU WERE 12 MINUTES LATE
cuz you WANTED TO LOOK GOOD FOR OUR FIRST DATE
at the end of DATE NUMBER TWO STANDING OUTSIDE MY DOOR
YOU KISSED ME I KNEW I WANTED MORE
pre chorus:
they'say to be sure you must take it slow
but what's a girl to do when she aleady knows
CHORUS:
I DON'T NEED A FALL BACK PLAN
IF I'VE GOT YOU, IF YOU'RE MY MAN
GRAVITY CAN'T HOLD ME DOWN
I'M IN LOVE AND I'M GLAD I'VE FOUND
I DON'T NEED A FALL BACK PLAN
AFTER DATE NUMBER THREE I WAS SURE YOU WOULD RUN
I SPOKE STUPIDLY OF THE HEART YOU HAD WON
but then there was DATE NUMBER FOUR SPENDING THE DAY WITH YOU
YOU WALKED ME TO MY DOOR and said “I'VE FALLEN TOO”
pre chorus:
they'say to be sure you must take it slow
but what's a girl to do when she aleady knows
I DON'T NEED A FALL BACK PLAN
IF I'VE GOT YOU, IF YOU'RE MY MAN
GRAVITY CAN'T HOLD ME DOWN
I'M IN LOVE AND I'M GLAD I'VE FOUND
I DON'T NEED A FALL BACK
BRIDGE:
I may have to turn to plan B someday
Plan B is this:
stick to plan A
stick to plan A
stick to plan A
I DON'T NEED A FALL BACK PLAN
IF I'VE GOT YOU, IF YOU'RE MY MAN
GRAVITY CAN'T HOLD ME DOWN
I'M IN LOVE AND I'M GLAD I'VE FOUND
I DON'T NEED A FALL BACK
i don't need a fall back
I don't need a fall back
I don't need to fall back
I don't need a fall back plan

I've had other guys
Looked into their eyes
Never saw love
Never saw love
I've kissed Mr. Right
Sailed into the night
Never found love
Never found love
They've tried to pull me away
But they don't know you like I do
I know you're
CHORUS
Just the right amount of wrong for me
Let 'em say, we've gone crazy
I know I found someone true
And I'm just the right amount of wrong for you
You're just the right amount of wrong for me
Put your hand in mine baby
Come what may we'll see it through
Cuz I'm just the right amount of wrong, for you
Dressed up to the nines
I've listened to their lines
Never heard love
Never hear love
Looking in your eyes,
I see paradise
I see love
I see love
They've tried to pull me away
But they don't know you like I do
I know you're
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I'm not afraid of mistakes
Mistakes are how we grow
and how I know

Good On Paper

We never went out walking hand in hand
You never spoke of your dreams or plans
Why'd it take me so long to see
You're good on paper bad for me
Good on paper, but bad for me
You had a way of coming on easily
Took what you wanted the best of me
Now we spend all our evenings apart
You're good on paper hard on the heart
Good on paper, but hard on the heart
If we could have shared a slow dance or two
Like a flower real love might have bloomed
But you never threw your arms around my neck
Never lingered on my front porch step
Why'd it take me so long to know
You're good on paper all for show
Good on paper, but all for show
If we could have shared a slow dance or two
Like a flower real love might have bloomed
We never went out walking hand in hand
You never spoke of your dreams or plans
Why'd it take me so long to see
You're good on paper bad for me
Good on paper, but bad for me
oh oh you're good on paper, but bad for me
oh oh, so good on paper, but bad for me

Easy To Love

verse:
What if it was more than chance?
More than just a twist of fate?
Jumping into the same cab
Both of us running late
I hate to speak in cliché
But you had me at hello
In truth I think I met you
A thousand years ago
chorus:
You'd be so easy to love
You'd be so easy to love 2x
verse:
Like a romantic a movie
Pacing up and down the hall
Happy you took my number
Wondering when you'll call
I hate to speak in cliche
But you had me at hello
In truth you got my number
A thousand years ago
chorus:
You'd be so easy to love
You'd be so easy to love 2x
BRIDGE:
making love
taking love
is the easy part
being love
freeing love
that's what's hard
chorus:
You'd be so easy to love
You'd be so easy to love 2x
Outro : to love to love...
you'd be so easy....
