Michael McLaughlin

Never thought it'd be this way
never thought i'd have so much to say
never thought we'd say goodbye
I wanted us to fly- forever- but you said never

Never wanted you so much
never wanted more than just your touch
never wanted you to go
I wanted us to be together- forever

And I said why has it got to be this way
and you said you never felt that way
It's over - you've got to get over - me
And I said you told me you loved me so
and you said you never meant it so - it's over
you've got to get over me

Never thought I'd miss your touch
never thought I'd feel in love this much
Always miss the things you say
I guess you never loved me - or wanted me
Never thought I'd miss that face
never thought I'd dream about a place
never thought our love would go
I wanted it forever- but you said never

And I said why has it got to be this way
and you said you never felt that way
It's over - you've got to get over - me
And I said you told me you loved me so
and you said you never meant it so - it's over
you've got to get over me

I’m lying here
And I’m thinking of you
Lights are off, TV on
And it’s only a quarter past two
My minds a mess
Need to let it all out
But the harder I try
The words in my head
Turn from calm into a shout
I pour a drink
Hoping it will settle my mind
It still hurts, its so raw, I feel sad
And its you that I need to find
Wonder where you are right now
Are you thinking of me
Are you asking yourself about how
-------------------------------------------
Chorus
How we left it, never meant it
Didn’t mean to say those things
Never wanted to really hurt you
All those issues, hate it brings
You don’t deserve it
It was my fault
I’ll never hurt you anymore
Just don’t leave it
Let me love you
My heart’s breaking – just so sore
-----------------------------------------
You’re in my mind
Every minute of the day
Unscrambling words in my head
I have nothing left to say
I know I was wrong
I just wanted to love you
But my pride and my selfishness
I thought I could do without you
And you were gone
Couldn’t take no more
Had enough of my words so unfeeling
You’re closing that door
And I’m lying here
Thinking of you
Why was I such a fool
Not to realise I can’t live without you – and
-----------------------------------------------------------
Chorus
How we left it, never meant it
Didn’t mean to say those things
Never wanted to really hurt you
All those issues, hate it brings
You don’t deserve it
It was my fault
I’ll never hurt you anymore
Just don’t leave it
Let me love you
My heart’s breaking – just so sore
---------------------------------------------
I’m lying here
And the clocks ticking six
Messages on my phone
And I’m scrolling through all of your pics
The times we shared
I will never forget
But those times can be now
Let me in take me back
Let’s pretend that we have just met
I’ll make you proud
I’ll make you love me
I’ll show all of your friends
That we’re us and you can’t live without me
Treat you right treat you good
So that you’ll never want to be without me - and
Chorus
How we left it, never meant it
Didn’t mean to say those things
Never wanted to really hurt you
All those issues, hate it brings
You don’t deserve it
It was my fault
I’ll never hurt you anymore
Just don’t leave it
Let me love you
My heart’s breaking – just so sore
-----------------------------------------------------
I’m lying here
And I’m thinking of you
Lights are off, TV on
And it’s only a quarter past two

Open up let me in
It feels so good
Its not a sin
Relax, layback
Enjoy the ride
And this bad boy
Right in he’ll slide

Chorus
You know you want me baby
And that is plain to see
You know you want me baby
You want a piece of me
You know you want me baby
There’s no need for pride
You know you want me baby
Sit back – enjoy the ride

So relax let it flow
Time for you to let it go
Right inside very deep
So dam hot – no time for sleep
up all night really raw
keep it there I want it more
loving life let it in
keep on going
its not a sin

Chorus

You know you want me baby
And that is plain to see
You know you want me baby
You want a piece of me
You know you want me baby
There’s no need for pride
You know you want me baby
Sit back – enjoy the ride

Push it up
Get it in
Deep inside
Lets just begin
To hit the spot
Yeah you’ve got
My honey pot
Don’t you stop

Chorus

You know you want me baby
And that is plain to see
You know you want me baby
You want a piece of me
You know you want me baby
There’s no need for pride
You know you want me baby
Sit back – enjoy the ride

Tongue like a lizard
Cum like a blizzard
Don’t stop just give me some more
Turn up the power
Quick fix and shower
I’m done but I’m longing for more
Needing a fix
I flick through the pics
Deciding which I’m gonna do
Message exchanged
And meeting arranged
I’m here it’s a rendezvous

A quick lunchtime fix
And you’re in the mix
No sandwich on the menu today
But who says that eating
Is really just cheating
Cos I’m here and I’m ready to play
Adrenaline pumping
Heartbeat is thumping
Excited what we’re gonna do
Eye contact made
We’re about to get laid
I’m here it’s a rendezvous



It’s after eight
And you’re running late
I’m here and I’m waiting for you
Pouring a drink
You smile with a wink
I know what I have to do
Closing the door
You’re screaming for more
But I’m done and I’m finished with you
Scrolling my phone
Don’t want to go home
I’m here it’s a rendezvous

Tongue like a lizard
Cum like a blizzard
Don’t stop just give me some more
Turn up the power
Quick fix and shower
I’m done but I’m longing for more
Needing a fix
I flick through the pics
Deciding which I’m gonna do
Message exchanged
And meeting arranged
I’m here it’s a rendezvous

I hurt you I know so bad
Didn’t mean to make you sad
Dreams you had I tore away
Really don’t know what to say
Can’t go back and change my way
But you won’t forget – I need to pay
Tell me this so many times
Words in my head they almost rhyme

Chorus

It’s not the hateful words you said to me
Or the arguments we had endlessly
It’s not the dirty looks we shared so much
Or the lack of love no gentle touch
It’s not the different worlds that we live in
Nothing shared – there’s no one in
It’s not the broken heart that’s torn apart
Or the thought of a brand new start
Its just the silence – and it kills me
-----------------------------------------------------

You blame me - its always me
How can you not ever see
Loving you was hard as hell
Tried my best – I tried to tell
You how much you mean to me
But life got there first – you’ll never see
Just how much I loved you so
Now I know I have to go

Chorus

It’s not the hateful words you said to me
Or the arguments we had endlessly
It’s not the dirty looks we shared so much
Or the lack of love no gentle touch
It’s not the different worlds that we live in
Nothing shared – there’s no one in
It’s not the broken heart that’s torn apart
Or the thought of a brand new start
Its just the silence – and it kills me
-------------------------------------------------
If you look back you’ll realise
It takes two there’s no surprise
Being there I gave support
You threw it back
and then we fought
I tried so hard to be that man
You broke me down
and then you ran
Chorus
It’s not the hateful words you said to me
Or the arguments we had endlessly
It’s not the dirty looks we shared so much
Or the lack of love no gentle touch
It’s not the different worlds that we live in
Nothing shared – there’s no one in
It’s not the broken heart that’s torn apart
Or the thought of a brand new start
Its just the silence – and it kills me

I never knew what would happen to me
Would change my world – I didn’t see
My thoughts and my feelings
They changed that day
But I guess I just buried them
Didn’t know what to say
You took my soul my mind and my body
I remained silent, I never told nobody
Lived with the pain
You wrecked with my head
Slowly destroyed me
Things left unsaid

Chorus

Reasons to stay
Reasons to go
Stuff I guess you’ll never know
Reasons to live
Reasons to die
Life’s not what it seems
I don’t know why
But I know that love
Will see me through
We only get one chance
Treat every day new
Don’t let your past
Catch up with the future
Your future is now
Do something to suit you

I never thought I’d do what I did
Couldn’t take no more
My pain I just hid
Feeling so worthless
So helpless inside
Thoughts, love and feelings
I guess they all died
What you did that day
It broke me in two
My mind overworking
To get rid of you
But everything I try
To make it all stop
It just won’t go away
You still come out top

Chorus

Reasons to stay
Reasons to go
Stuff I guess you’ll never know
Reasons to live
Reasons to die
Life’s not what it seems
I don’t know why
But I know that love
Will see me through
We only get one chance
Treat every day new
Don’t let your past
Catch up with the future
Your future is now
Do something to suit you

I wish I’d never let you do that to me
You robbed me of everything
You robbed me of me
I destroyed myself
And hurt everyone
The pain cut like a knife
The bleed it was long
But they say in life
Things happen for a reason
My thoughts they changed
Like the change of a season
I made myself new
And chose to love me
Got rid of that picture
That hold you had over me

Chorus

Reasons to stay
Reasons to go
Stuff I guess you’ll never know
Reasons to live
Reasons to die
Life’s not what it seems
I don’t know why
But I know that love
Will see me through
We only get one chance
Treat every day new
Don’t let your past
Catch up with the future
Your future is now
Do something to suit you

Eyes shut thinking of you
Feel so alone – feeling blue
Memories going around in my head
Wishing you were here in my bed
Night time I get so dam low
You’re dressed up - I have nowhere to go
Lying here thinking of you
Wondering what am I gonna do
-----------------------------------------------
Chorus
Ships they say pass through the night
But our ship its sailed out of sight
Ship wrecked on a beach faraway
But broken – it hurts everyday
Our walls they came tumbling down
I still hurt you still make me frown
But I’m still here thinking of you
Wondering what the hell I’m gonna do
-------------------------------------------------------
Cos stars they don’t fall out of the sky
Tears they fall and they don’t lie
Dreams don’t always come true
And you and me – you never knew
How much you always mean to me
But is it just enough - we’ll see
I guess we could give it one more try
But you won’t and I don’t know why


Chorus
Ships they say pass through the night
But our ship its sailed out of sight
Ship wrecked on a beach faraway
But broken – it hurts everyday
Our walls they came tumbling down
I still hurt you still make me frown
But I’m still here thinking of you
Wondering what the hell I’m gonna do

……………………………………………………………..
One day you’ll come back to me
And we’ll live together happily
I tell myself that we’ll be ok
And kind words I guess that we will say
But you still won’t take my call
I gave you everything – I gave it all
But everything was no good to you
Cos you’ve moved on to someone new
---------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus
Cos stars they don’t fall out of the sky
Tears they fall and they don’t lie
Dreams don’t always come true
And you and me – you never knew
How much you always mean to me
But is it just enough - we’ll see
I guess we could give it one more try
But you won’t and I don’t know why

You closed the door
We never said goodbye
I didn’t know
It was your time to die
I poured a wine
You played a game
I never knew that day
You’d never say my name again

Chorus

Cos life it stopped
That very day
Right in a flash
You went away
And now I sit hear all alone
Just waiting for you to come home

I sit and wait I wait so long
And every word of our great song
I wonder do you feel my love
In heaven in the skies above
Cos life its not that fairytale
The bad still live - the good some fail
And you’ll never say my name again

Chorus

Cos life it stopped
That very day
Right in a flash
You went away
And now I sit hear all alone
Just waiting for you to come home

That knock I never will forget
The visitor I’d never met
The words he said I never heard
Its like silence fell on every word
My heart it broke apart that day
I’ll never look at life the same way
Memories of you I hold so dear
I’ll never forget you do not fear

Chorus

Cos life it stopped
That very day
Right in a flash
You went away
And now I sit hear all alone
Just waiting for you to come home
