VERSE 1: Lefty-loosey, Lacie left me two days ago Now I'm afraid she might be letting go Righty-tighty, it's just my pride see, I I've gotta be right every time we fight Anytime we disagree. She's so hard-headed, but I don't let her forget it And that's something I should change about my ways So I say I'm sorry, but she'll still ignore me For days and days and days. PRE-CHORUS: Nuts and bolts Nuts and bolts CHORUS: I screwed things up again Between me and my girlfriend And I hope it's not the end Of my and my girlfriend VERSE 2: Lefty-loosey, I yelled at Lacie and I was wrong So I'm writing another apology song Righty-tighty, I wonder why she won't pick up the telephone She'd rather let me sit here all alone Because she's so stubborn, but I can't help but love her And I know that won't change...but anyway I don't know what to say to make her want to stay with me PRE-CHORUS: Nuts and bolts Nuts and bolts CHORUS: I screwed things up again Between me and my girlfriend And I hope it's not the end Of my and my girlfriend BRIDGE: And it's just like me to say what I think But it's not like me to tell her what I mean So it's just like me to say the wrong thing, to say the wrong thing PRE-CHORUS: Nuts and bolts Nuts and bolts CHORUS: I screwed things up again Between me and my girlfriend And I hope it's not the end Of my and my girlfriend

VERSE 1: Is it true that You love pornstars the same as You love pastors? Do You love the deadbeat fathers like You love their blameless bastards? PRE-CHORUS: 'Cause if that's true, then I need You to show me a thing or two. I need You to teach me to love. CHORUS: Teach me to love. VERSE 2: Do You really love the prostitute like You love the faithful preacher? Do You love the racist and the rapist like the Sunday School teacher? Do you really love the pedophile like you love the victim child? PRE-CHORUS: 'Cause if that's true, then I need You to show me a thing or two. I need You to teach me to love. CHORUS: Teach me to love. BRIDGE: Do You love those who speak against Your Name and those that follow You exactly the same? PRE-CHORUS: 'Cause if You do, then I'm telling You, if that's true, then I need You to teach me to love. CHORUS: Teach me to love.

VERSE 1: I finally realize Though there are clouds in these skies Grab your coat, grab your shoes We've got everything to lose Baby I can see the sun in your eyes CHORUS: Oh I can love you if I choose to Oh I will love you. Babe, I'm dying to. VERSE 2: And when the day is through All I want is you There's no mile that can't be run And there's no race that can't be won. Everything in me just wants to say "I do." CHORUS: Oh I can love you if I choose to Oh I will love you. Babe, I'm dying to. BRIDGE: I'm dying to see you. I'm dying to hold you. And fifteen miles won't stop me this time. Not this time. CHORUS: Oh I will love you. Oh I will love you. Oh I will love you. Babe, I'm dying to.

VERSE 1: Monk talked about Heaven and Hawaii And all the work you're gonna have to do About mansions and streets of gold Pearl floors and crystal thrones All the people waiting there for you. Baby Daughter said look out for Meagan And you can find Shannon with the 2's Horsefly didn't know what to say But that's okay 'Cause you knew he was saying "I love you." PRE-CHORUS: Now Old Black's parked safely in the back yard And all your work here is through CHORUS: So be still B.R. and everything will be okay Be still B.R. and we'll see you another day VERSE 2: Gordon talked of all the trips you'd take And all the rules he'd try to make you break How PVC light stands were genius He was your best friend But you were more like a father to him And the Jacksons thought you could do no wrong That's what made you such a perfect hero But you've been fighting this since '91 Now all the fighting's done So just go to sleep, let go and go back home PRE-CHORUS: 'Cause Old Black's parked safely in the back yard And all your work here is through CHORUS: So be still B.R. and everything will be okay Be still B.R. and we'll see you another day BRIDGE: Responsibility, hard work and humility Discipline, integrity, honesty and loyalty Your generosity, compassion and decency The way you displayed these things Showed us who we should be. We should be... CHORUS: So be still B.R. and everything will be okay Be still B.R. and we'll see you another day Ya we'll see you another day Just let go and fly away And we'll see you another day

lyrics

VERSE 1: Oh my love, your eyes like doves Your skin so dark and so soft to touch. Come to the door. Leave your robe on the floor, And take my love and make it yours. CHORUS 1: Stay with me My beloved, love me And I'll make you feel lovely. Stay with me. Stay with me. VERSE 2: Oh my bride, why must you hide? I long for you to let me inside To lay you in bed, with my hand behind your head To let your hair fall down Like the finest of thread. CHORUS 1: Stay with me My beloved, love me And I'll make you feel lovely. Stay with me. Stay with me. BRIDGE: I wanna hear you speak. I wanna watch you sleep. I wanna feel you breathe. I wanna hear you speak. I wanna watch you sleep. I wanna feel you breathe. And I don't wanna leave. I don't wanna leave. I don't wanna leave. I don't wanna leave. CHORUS 2: Lay with me. My beloved, make love with me And I'll make you feel lovely. Lay with me. Lay with me
