Mandy Moore - Wild Hope (2007) by Mandy Moore (보컬) on maniadb.com

I was a bay tree
Quiet and unseen
I lived in stories
but inside I kept a mystery
I was a starling
Nobody's darling
Flying in perfect circles
Just for company
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready to be
Extraordinary
A midnight airplane
A window blowing
I know I am another
sparkle in the sky
I shine on copper
Still undiscovered
But you must see me in the
corner of your eye
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready to be
Extraordinary
Waking up to
a week of Sundays
I am my own parade
Stopping off
at a sidewalk cafe
The wind is
playing in the trees
Kicking up confetti leaves
Sings as if it's all to say
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready to be
Extraordinary
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready to be
Extraordinary
Extraordinary

All good things
All good things
All good things
Not sure where to go
Everybody I know
Says I'm too forgiving
And now that I'm gone
I don't wanna move on
I just keep reliving
All good things
I wish you
All good things
Come to an end
All good things
I wish you well

Lost inside of my head
Empty side of the bed
I feel this place without you
I keep pushing the blues
'Cause I know
I don't wanna lose
What I loved about you
All good things
I wish you
All good things
Come to an end
All good things
I wish you well
I can think of a million ways
You proved
you weren't the one
So live inside of
your shades of gray
And never mind the sunshine
That I'll find

I got so much space now
I've got a whole house
With the wind blowin' through
It's only somewhere to hide
I've got this
whole world inside
I was accustomed
to showing you
All good things
I wish you
All good things
Come to an end
All good things
I wish you well Oh oh
All good things
Oh oh oh
All good things
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
All good things
Oh I wish you well

I'm a long way off
But still around
Sitting on the couch
I'm watching you
And if I take my time
All the others give in
You feel like
you're standing in line
Oh no no no
I just know
that you're worth the wait
It's of no concern
It's a risk I'd gladly take
From time to time
Don't worry
about yourself at all
I'll hang your
work up on my wall
Hose you down and
dress you up real nice
With some brand new plans
and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar
'Cause you can tell the
story of your life
Without slummin' in paradise
I wonder how you feel
Or do I
Standing on the corner
How's your view
From the other side
Oh Mr Right
It's not a pretty sight alone
Don't worry
about yourself at all
I'll hang your
work up on my wall
Hose you down and
dress you up real nice
With some brand new plans
and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar
'Cause you can tell the
story of your life
Without slummin' in paradise

You won't
often see this letter
Handed over right away
I know the first time
I found you wonderful
So Don't worry
about yourself at all
I'll hang your
work up on my wall
Hose you down and
dress you up real nice
With some brand new plans
and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar
'Cause you can tell the
story of your life
Without slummin' in paradise

I'm not ready to confront
I'd rather cement my words
this way
This could be the
easy road out
But I'm just
not all that happy
So I'm writing all this down
And I'll file it in a drawer
someday
In lieu of a conversation
We'd probably forget to have
anyway
I won't hold anything back
And I won't hold anything in
Feel like
I know where this is going
And I might know how it ends
But I'm still
Willing to begin
You should know
my story by now
And why I'm optimistic
cautiously
I understand
it's not your fault
But I'm not takin'
anything back
You still end up with
Oh Most of me
I won't hold anything back
And I won't hold anything in
Feel like
I know where this is going
And I might know how it ends
But I'm still
Willing to begin
I expect you to fly from
Newyork to LA
And land on my doorstep
Oh And smile at me and say
It was worth it
to see most of me
Oh Do you love most of me
You're just crossing paths
Oh With the way he left me
I'm not sayin' a word
But I'm watching you quietly
Cuase You're gonna have to
prove me wrong
Before I know this is right
We don't have to
decide tonight
Just wait for me patiently
Oh And you'll get all of me
Oh I won't hold anything back
No And I won't hold
anything in
Feel like
I know where this is going
And I might know how it ends
But I'm still
Willing to begin
Yeah I understand
Why Willing to begin

It's a take out weekend
It's a fake out
smile and pretend
If nobody sees you cry
You can say it was
raining outside
And all that you want
Is a few days down
All that you need
a little time to drown
It's to be expected
With all the weight
you carry around
all that you want
is a few days down
Oh oh oh
a few days down
Oh oh oh
It's a short vacation
to a foreign nation
Oh nothing familiar here
Just you
and your lonesome
heart complaining
And all that you want
Is a few days down
All that you need
a little time to drown
It's to be expected
With all the weight
you carry around
all that you want
is a few days down
Oh oh oh
a few days down

I'm looking around
Ten stories high
And like a blanket lifted
The quiet night
The city finally waking up
Good morning right

And all that you want
Is a few days down
All that you need
a little time to drown
It's to be expected
With all the weight
you carry around
all that you want
is a few days down
Oh oh oh
a few days down
Oh oh oh
a few days down
Oh oh oh
a few days down

In the crazy world
Anything can happen
If you will it to
I'm just a hazy girl
Blurring all the edges
Only seeing blue
It's a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright
Lost inside
A painting of a
city on a hotel wall
Days goes by
Wasting golden
hours in the fall
It's a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright
I catch a glimpse
of our reflection
Beside you I see myself
We are the season's
new collection
We look like everybody else

Walk alone
Through the crowded streets
into the fading grey
Here and gone
Like a decoration
for the holiday
It's a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright

There is part of me
that wants an answer
And part of me that
doesn't want to know
Part of you that
I am in love with
And the part that
I am willing to let go
This is a delicate
unraveling
Now and then
I find pieces on the floor
Tiny little bits
that tell me
Maybe I shouldn't do this
Or love you anymore
Someone's gonna have to
fess up
Someone's gonna have to
clean this mess up
How I wanted you
the first time
And I loved you from
the second
And I don't know how
that ever goes away
As far as I can tell
You're really
good at talking
So I think its time
you let me know
I'm just your
latest mistake

I wonder what will
make you happy
I wonder what
you'll do with it all
I have a map in my head
Somehow still
don't understand
Why I have to always
miss you
Why I have to
make the call
Someone's gonna
have to step up
Someone's gonna
have to clean this mess up
How I wanted you
the first time
And I loved you from
the second
And I don't know how
that ever goes away
As far as I can tell
You're really
good at talking
So I think its
time you let me know
I'm just your latest mistake

Before you drive me away
Take a good look at me baby
Picture me not
lying on your couch
Well I wish the
best for you
Everytime you go thru this
Before you finally
figure it out
'Cause I wanted you
the first time
And I loved you from
the second
And I don't know how
that ever goes away
As far as I can tell
You're really
good at talking
I think its time
you let me know
I think its time
you let me know
I'm your latest
I'm your latest mistake
I'm your latest mistake

You did everything
I asked you not to
Look where it got you
I'm sure
You heard it before
But How could you
Baby why would you
Goodbye sweetheart
Countdown started
Words are heavy
But I'm far from
broken hearted
Goodbye stranger
I'll take the fall
Lies were tempting
know you never really
threw me off at all
Go ahead
Waste your time
Count me out
Take your place at the
end of the line
Raise a glass
No surprise
Here's to us at the
end of the line
Here's to us at the
end of the line

I'll miss the version of you
Who loved me
And all that they don't see
You said you could be good
Somehow you're guilty
And you're not even sorry
Goodbye sweetheart
Countdown started
Words are heavy
But I'm far from
broken hearted
Goodbye stranger
I'll take the fall
you are Lies were tempting
know you never really
threw me off at all
Go ahead
Waste your time
Count me out
Take your place at the
end of the line
Raise a glass
No surprise
Here's to us at the
end of the line
Here's to us at the
end of the line

Go ahead
Waste your time
Count me out
Take your place at the
end of the line
Raise a glass
No surprise
Here's to us at the
end of the line
Here's to us at the
end of the line

Well, I put so much thought into getting ready
Now I know that was the best part
It’s so easy to get caught up in what I’m regretting
Forget what I got from a wounded heart

CHORUS
I’m the one who likes Gardenia
I’m the one who likes to make love on the floor
I don’t want to hang up the phone yet
It’s been good
Getting to know me more


I’ve been seeing all my old friends in the city
Walking alone in Central Park
Doing all the things that I’ve neglected
Traded ‘em all in
To be in your arms

CHORUS

Well, I hear my own voice
Sounds so silly
Keep on telling my story all around
Everything I lost seems so different
Well, this is how everybody gets found
