Jasmine 04:05
We have quite the history, don’t we? Bittersweet at times But that only seems right After seven years behind the wheel Of this relationship We can face anything ‘Cause when I turn you on You take me anywhere I want It’s surreal the way you make me feel I’m right where I belong And just as along as you stay strong I feel like nothing can go wrong We’re quite the team, you and me So best believe this is your song Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you And the things I would give to have you see How happy you have made me through these years And now you’re getting old And I know how that goes So I’ll cherish every moment till the end of the road Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you ‘Cause when I turn you on, you take me anywhere I want It’s surreal the way you make me feel I’m right where I belong And just as along as you stay strong I feel like nothing can go wrong We’re quite the team, you and me So best believe this is your song Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you Oh Jasmine, Oh Jasmine I can’t imagine what would happen if I didn’t have you

Slow Down 04:29
I got lost for a second, my body and mind disconnected Kept grasping at the past Just thinking of things that I wish hadn’t happened, but What I was, who I was Doesn’t have to be me forever And I know that I can feel better I want to slow down And notice the moments again Reset my senses, get back to the present And out of my head Out of my head I found myself stuck Tangled up inside everyone’s judgements I lost sight of the fact That life doesn’t have to move so fast What I was, and who I was Doesn’t have to be me forever And I know that I can feel better I want to slow down And notice the moments again Reset my senses, get back to the present And out of my head Now I see, tonight’s for me My life’s for me And I want to slow down And notice the moments again Reset my senses, get back to the present And out of my, out of my I want to slow down And notice the moments again Reset my senses, get back to the present And out of my head

Magic 04:41
You, well I think you are trouble Please get your butterflies out of my stomach ‘Cause I know I shouldn't feel this way But I’m afraid I don’t want it to change You, well you came out of nowhere You pulled my feelings right out of thin air And now I have never felt more impulsive But I simply cannot move a muscle Who do you think you are You took my heart without even asking And I’ve had enough You’re distracting me from my passion But what makes me so mad Is we can’t even see what would happen But I have this feeling it could be magic Well I, I just had to be honest So I spoke my mind right off my chest And I know you feel something too Wish I could convince you to follow through Ooh, we made a mutual decision That we should probably keep our distance But you see, it’s turning me into a mess And I can’t get you out of my head Who do you think you are You took my heart without even asking And I’ve had enough You’re distracting me from my passion But what makes me so mad Is we can’t even see what could happen But I have this feeling it would be magic I didn’t want to feel this way I didn’t want to fall this way I never wanted to feel this way anyway Why must you be the one to make me feel this way Oh what’s wrong with you You took my heart without even asking How dare you Go distracting me from my passion But what makes me so sad Is we can’t even see what could happen But I have this feeling we would be magic And just for the record I know you want your heart all to yourself But you’d be making a mistake If you let me slip away And I know that it may take some time But please let me know if you change your mind

Angels 04:13
Angels can you hear me
 I feel like you’re close by
 I’m asking for some strength now, Strength on every side Angels can you feel me
 I need you close to home
 I know that I am helpless It’s out of my control So I’m calling you
 Something that I never knew I’d do But the thought of you
 Brings me hope Angels I can feel you
 ‘Cause you’ve been here before
 Please wrap your wings around her And help us lift her up Oh I’m calling you
 Something that I never knew I’d do But the thought of you
 Brings me hope Oh I’m calling you
 Something that I never knew I’d do But the thought of you
 Brings me hope, oh I’m calling you
 Something that I never knew I’d do But the thought of you
 Brings me hope

I always put myself first
 So I can make sure I don’t get hurt 
 Keep one hand on the ledge of my wall
 So I can always pull myself up before I fall But now a days
 I am tired of feeling so damn safe 
 I wanna ditch that wall and run away They say anything can happen in a day
 Dreams come true, love can ensue, Or everything can be taken away So there’s no more time for me to waste I’ve gotta leave it up to fate and just Face what I’m afraid of If I take that leap of faith
 Do you think I’d make it, or would you fight for me to stay? ‘Cause when I take this leap of faith
 I know my entire world may change At times I feel alive And sometimes I get stuck inside my mind I always climb out and I'm fine, then Every other breath I feel empowered and then helpless again But nowadays I am sick of these cyclical phases 
 I wanna rise above my thoughts and run away 
 They say anything can happen in a day
 Dreams come true, a love can ensue, Or everything can be taken away
 So there is no more time for me to waste I gotta leave it up to fate and just face what I’m afraid of If I take that leap of faith
 Do you think I’d make it, or would you fight for me to stay? 
 ‘Cause when I take this leap of faith
 I know my entire world may change If I take that leap of faith
 Do you think I’d make it, or would you fight for me to stay? 
 ‘Cause when I take this leap of faith
 I know my entire world may change

We found ourselves in this beautiful space But we’ve opened our eyes and both white flags are in the air And we know this real type of feeling is hard for us to find But right now we need to keep our dreams at the top of our minds It’s just not the right time, so here’s to a bittersweet goodbye What a bittersweet goodbye I’m still conflicted, I don’t want this to end But I’ve got to spend some time with my heart and no one else I know this decision isn’t easy for you either You want to grow on your own, but you don’t want to let me go It’s just not the right time, so here’s to a bittersweet goodbye What a bittersweet goodbye And I hate that it’s time to say this bittersweet goodbye What a bittersweet goodbye If we follow our heads we’ll starve our hearts But we’ll be safe in knowing we’ll never fall apart And if we follow our hearts we may lose our heads At this point, I guess we’re just not willing to risk that yet It’s just not the right time, so here’s to a bittersweet goodbye What a bittersweet goodbye And I hate that it’s time to say this bittersweet goodbye What a bittersweet goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye
