Someday

i once knew a girl
in the years of my youth
with eyes like the summer
all beauty and truth
in the morning i fled
left a note and it read
someday you will be loved

i cannot pretend that
i felt any regret
cause each broken heart
will eventually mend
as the blood runs red
down the needle and thread
someday you will be loved

You Will Be

you'll be loved you'll be loved
like you never have known
the memories of me
will seem more like bad dreams
just a series of blurs
like i never occurred
someday you will be loved

you may feel alone
when you're falling asleep
and everytime tears
roll down your cheeks
but i know your heart belongs
to someone you've yet to meet
someday you will be loved

Loved

you'll be loved you'll be loved
like you never have known
the memories of me
will seem more like bad dreams
just a series of blurs
like i never occurred
someday you will be loved

you'll be loved you'll be loved
like you never have known
the memories of me
will seem more like bad dreams
just a series of blurs
like i never occurred
someday you will be loved

Ironic

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic ... don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought ... it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
'Well isn't this nice...'
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think

[ It's a free ride when you've already paid ]

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

It's a traffic jam when you're already late
It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out

Ladies & Gentlemen...

EMILY JANE WHITE

Wild Tigers

silence is a power and a tool
for you, for you
wild tigers i have known
they send me down
messin' around

you keep your heart from your chest
it'll be gone just like the rest
'cause it's a man's world
say all the right words
and hold your heart from your chest

the silence and the color
and their beauty
stands right and still for you

holdin' flames
holdin' hands in hearts
and their bindings
held tightly
lyin' in the shady grass
their teeth grinding
inside is foreign

I Have Known

'cause it's the magic hand
that holds you gently
and turns one into many
and there inside
it's bloody to reach boldly
for truth spoken from mouth in his name

there will be wise men
singing, bringing you luck
now there will be wise men
singing, bringing you luck
now there will be wise men
singing, bringing you luck
bringing you love

now it's the precious summertime
hand in pocket
bright light
wild tigers i have known
they send me down
messin' around

Dreamer

and with a faint
taste of cigarettes
you write
hallelujah songs

ain't it wonderful
feeling alright
so i tickle up
your backbone

Dreamer

and at the break of day
you sink into dream
you dreamer

on a date by
a chocolate lake
down by the rotary
past town at the edge
looking down
at butterflies
