Stop The World lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

You need someone to hold you

You need somethin' that you ain't been getting

Yeah, I could be the one

To tell you what to do, but it don't mean nothing

And you're holding on forever

But that something just ain't true

I'm just like you

And I know

It's what I'd do

Here I go

Cuz I couldn't stop the world, cuz I loved you

I couldn't stop the world, and I don't want to

I couldn't stop the world, and I won't

Cuz it ain't enough

You had another bad day

You let me know that you just can't take it

I've given up on you

You live in truth and I know I can't fake it

Cuz the stars you see on dirty sidewalks

And they ain't for wishin', ooh

They don't come true

And I know, it's what I'd do

Here I go

Cuz I couldn't stop the world, cuz I loved you

I couldn't stop the world, and I don't want to

I couldn't stop the world, and I won't

Cuz it ain't enough

Am I too young for the world?

I'm not too young for the world

And I can't change for the world

(I don't need to stop the world)

'Cause I don't care for the world

(I'm too young, I'm too young)

I don't make sense to the world

(I don't need to stop the world)

(I'm too young, I'm too young)

[fade out...]

Already There lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

I look outside my window,e verything was blanketed in white

The neighbors pushing cars out from snow that fell on us last night

Started thinking 'bout the things we used to do when we were young

Back when things were simple, getting up was fun

I couldn't care, cuz I'm already there

I'm already there, and I'm ready there

Turn around and face the clock

I sit and watch, as time went hoppin' by

I'm still growing up, my friends are growing old before my eyes

Count the stars above, wonder when the heavens will subside

Knowing our two worlds will someday just collide

I couldn't care, cuz I'm already there

I'm already there, and I'm ready there

Just a boy who's young at heart, his smile was a bit like yours today

Had a wife, a kid, some strife, never had to go astray

Happiness evolved, life was in full swing at 17

All the things he wanted were things he'd never seen

It don't seem fair, cuz I'm already there

I'm already there, and I'm ready there

On The Lie lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

He burned down the house one night

He had a loaded six-pack gun

He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop

You know, you never know when they'll come

She said every day above ground was another dream come true

He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night

But I'm not in love with you

And I never got serious

'Til everything went black

And I ain't so curious

That I'm ever going back

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

He said, man you want to be Elvis

I said I ain't dying face down

He said you gotta die facing up in the world

Cuz there's too many holes around

He asked what was wrong with me

He said I looked like a Hollywood girl

I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man

Cuz it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world, and

And I never got serious

'Til everything went black

And I ain't so curious

That I'm ever going back

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie

On the lie, he was

On the lie

On the lie, she was

On the lie

On the lie, he was

On the lie

It's all been a stinkin' lie

Close Your Eyes lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

I wish I had a saxophone

I'd play the blues 'til you came home

With a little sadness in your eyes

Now that all my time was spent

In the walk your heaven sent

Thinking 'bout all the nights you cried

Had a certain passion

And I had silly dreams

A look of vicious actions

Don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Oh, don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

I wish I had a camera lens

To film the things my mind had said

Before they reached my mouth and got all bad

Looking at the skies of blue

All day long, I think of you

Even after all the shit we've been through

Had a certain passion

And I had silly dreams

A look of vicious actions

Don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Please don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Oh, don't close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Eyes to me

So Far Away lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

Why do you stare me down?

Am I wrong?

Should I turn and kiss the ground?

And I never felt that way

I ain't the one and you know I don't come from such a place

And I didn't get those things

Those things that you can't grow

You say that it's all my fault

And I don't need to know

Tell me something I don't know

And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me

You said that it's all been said before

Now I find that there's something I don't know

And I hate your attitude

I ain't scared at all cuz it don't matter what you do

And I'll turn around to see the truth

You're tearing it down, yeah, you're bringing it down

And it's all on you

And I didn't get those things

Those things that you can't grow

You say that it's all my fault

And I don't need to know

Tell me something I don't know

And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me

You said that it's all been said before

Now I find that there's something I don't know

And I know

I don't know

(Rock and roll)

And I'll stay there

If you break enough glass and there's no one to hear

And your heart's full of hate cuz your mind's full of fear

Let it go

Oh, so far away

So far away

So far away

(Something I don't know)

Oh, so far away

So far away

So far away

Laughing lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

I wake up, I'm staring at the clock

My belly hurts and my head is like a rock

I get up to see what I can see

Furthest I got was my black and white TV

Eyewitness News brought to you at noon

Oh my God, guess I got up too soon because

Oh, I feel like laughing

Oh, I feel like laughing

Oh, I feel like laughing

All because of you

All because of you

I didn't mean to wear this disguise

But I can't stand the look in my eyes

Oh, I didn't mean to lie

I was doing what I thought was right

Come on, walk right down the line

You'll be walking 'til the end of time because

Oh, I feel like laughing

Oh, I feel like laughing

Oh, I feel like laughing

All because of you

All because of you

Oh, I feel like laughing

Oh, I feel like laughing

Oh, I feel like laughing

All because of you

All because of you
