Static 04:18
Static Copyright©SingAnuSong0724120AA I’m looking at my best friend Through the shades of gray That fills your eyes They’re giving me a chance To make a move As I roll out the dice I sing to the beat of this conundrum Tethered to you I think to myself Something’s missing here Our words are never clear There goes the atmosphere In the static we find Sparks from your words and mine I’m so dramatic You’re full of panic Wake up open your eyes Hold on there’s trouble in paradise Let’s gather up our sins And leave it at the hands That split the sea apart You exactly the way you are Have certainly won my heart When all the other ships have set sail I will still keep my anchor down But something’s missing here Our words are never clear There goes the atmosphere In the static we find Sparks from your words and mine I’m so dramatic You’re full of panic Wake up open your eyes Hold on there’s trouble in paradise When we live in watercolor paintings The only thing to do is Pray it never rains So when the sun radiates off our face I know we are ok There’s something missing here Our words are never clear There’s something missing here Our words are never clear So welcome to the still life No we can never never Never never never seem to get it right So we wait And then we wait And then we wait And we wait some more In the static we find Sparks from your words and mine I’m so dramatic You’re full of panic Wake up open your eyes Hold on there’s trouble in paradise There’s trouble in paradise www.facebook.com/anualphonse

Sunny 16 04:05
Sunny 16 Copyright©SingAnuSong100110/AA Every time I blink I take your picture And capture something beautiful Like a thousand sunsets And then you illuminate my heart My head is like an oven Which explains the fever That will not come down As you lay your head to sleep I pray the Lord My heart you keep Under your head I’ll be the pillow And if you need I’ll be your blanket too For every time I blink I keep a photo album Portraits of you fill my head Like a picture gallery Somehow your silhouette On opaque days will Find its way and makes it place On the Sunny 16 page As you lay your head to sleep I pray the Lord My heart you keep Under your head I’ll be the pillow And if you need I’ll be your blanket too We’ll make a clean breast Of our past regrets And sin with the confidence That we’re changing by grace Fear may come Knockin’ us to the ground But I’ll pick you up And I’ll carry you home As you lay your head to sleep I pray the Lord My heart you keep Under your head I’ll be the pillow And if you need I’ll be your blanket As you lay your head to sleep I pray the Lord My heart you keep Under your head I’ll be the pillow And if you need I’ll be your blanket too I’ll be your blanket too I’ll be your blanket too www.facebook.com/anualphonse

Maria 03:25
Maria Copyright©SingAnuSong10222011/AA Oh Maria it's good to hear That you’re down south for the holidays The trees are cleared the winter is near Now is the best time for a sweet escape Oh Maria I'll still be here Hoping your heart warms up like the month of May I see you laugh again? I pray that we’ll be more than friends So do your best Do your best to come to me Do your best to come to me soon Do your best do your best to come to me When you've thought it out in your hotel room Oh Maria I want to see ya When you're back from fun in Tampa Bay Bring a cheer into the New Year And let me help you count the sunny Days go by I can't pretend Hey I want you back again So do your best Do your best to come to me Do your best to come to me soon Do your best do your best to come to me When you've thought it out in your hotel room I won't ever try to change your mind When you stick to your guns But when your heart is laying on the line That’s when freedom comes So do your best Do your best to come to me Do your best to come to me soon Do your best do your best to come to me When you've thought it out in your hotel room So do your best Do your best to come to me Do your best to come to me soon Do your best do your best to come to me When you've thought it out in your hotel room When you've thought it out in your hotel When you've thought it out in your hotel room www.facebook.com/anualphonse

Heartsick 04:53
Heartsick Copyright©SingAnuSong120411/AA You come close Just close enough With the comfort of A familiar touch You want to believe That I’m the one But you hesitate To take the plunge If you’re guarded by walls I will love you brick by brick But until it comes tumbling down I'm so heartsick tonight Burnin' a fever inside Oh so heartsick tonight In the light of love You are heavy on my mind You say words That sooth my ear Oh and there are three I always love to hear But our laughter hangs In the autumn breeze As it sweeps away October leaves Well what better season Than autumn to fall in love Won’t you fall back To the hour you were mine So we won’t have to say I'm so heartsick tonight Burnin' a fever inside Oh so heartsick tonight In the light of love You are heavy on my mind Saying hello Is more painful than goodbye It's like finding hope Just to watch it slowly die Oh when love subsides Why are we surprised To find we're broken? Yeh we're all broken I'm so heartsick tonight Burnin' a fever inside Oh so heartsick tonight In the light of love You weigh heavy yeh I'm so heartsick tonight Burnin' a fever inside Oh so heartsick tonight In the light of love You weigh heavy In the light of love You weigh heavy In the light of love You weigh heavy on my mind www.facebook.com/anualphonse

Back to You 04:21
Back to You Copyright©SingAnuSong040711AA From the outside looking in The bleeding hasn’t stopped Dagger to the heart Still my fire for you burns In twisting wind and turns And it's never blowing out Bring back that loving feeling I don't want to say goodbye So see you later You won't ever have to cry Like this again I'm not going to say goodbye Take time and think it over When you're ready I will come back to you I see the ocean in your eyes Crashing on your cheeks Your salt was always sweet While I'm drowning in your tears Will you reach down in your fear And pull me up again? Bring back that loving feeling back I don't want to say goodbye So see you later You won't ever have to cry Like this again I'm not going to say goodbye Take time and think it over When you're ready I will come back to you Back to you I miss my best friend I was tossed when The tides drag you away In our defiance to interdependence We keep each other at bay I'm coming back to you I'm coming back to you I don't want to say goodbye So see you later You won't ever have to cry Like this again I'm not going to say goodbye Take time and think it over When you're ready I will come back to you When you're ready I will come back to you I’m coming back to you I’m coming back to you www.facebook.com/anualphonse
