One Step At A Time lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you've always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste
But you just can't touch

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

[Chorus:]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

You believe and you doubt
You're confused, you got it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours
If they only knew

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
(when you need to find the strength)
It's your faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time

One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

Landmines lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Trying to pretend its perfect
wish that I could run away and hide
in someone else's life
Feel like I'm 5 and helpless
Like a child left alone
Crying through the night

And when you yell at me
I get scared of you
All I want is to be close to you
I wish I could tell you the way I feel
But I can't break through

I don't wanna talk about it
I don't say another word
I've already said too much
Cause you just never seem to get it
Do you even care how much it hurts?
To hate the one you love
And I'm just waiting for the day
when I, when I don't have to
tip toe through the landmines

So afraid if I say the wrong thing
That your gonna blow up at me
Till I crumble to the ground
Finally I'm getting stronger
And if I have to walk away,
I will, And I won't turn around

If you saw my tears,
would you look away?
Hold me close?
Would you beg to stay?
If I fall apart,
and let you see inside?
Would you tell me its alright?

I don't wanna talk about it
I don't say another word
I've already said too much
Cause you just never seem to get it
Do you even care how much it hurts?
To hate the one you love
And I'm just waiting for the day
when I, I don't have to
tip toe through the landmines

How can I be so conflicted?
Your the light and the darkness in my heart
You'll always have a place inside it
How can loving you be so hard?
Just want it to be ok
Someday, Someday....

I don't wanna talk about it
I don't say another word
I've already said too much
Cause you just never seem to get it
Do you even care how much it hurts?
To hate the one you love
And I'm just waiting for the day
when I, can finally leave all this hurt behind
So I don't have to tip toe through the landmines
I don't have to tip toe through the landmines

tip toe through the landmines

Papercut lyrics - Jordin Sparks

I'm ok, I'm ok
Don't keep asking me I might dissenagrate
What you want? I moved on.
Everything is going well at least thats what I tell myself
I wish I was the tinman so I wouldn't have a heart to break

I'm ok, I'll survive
I only think about you half of the time
All these tears are just drops in the ocean baby
You barely even cross my mind, no no
And it doesn't hurt that much
It was only a papercut
Its only a papercut. papercut yeah

I forget that its there
You keep calling and calling you don't care
How it burns
How it stings
Just cuz you can't see it bleed
Doesn't mean it don't cut deep

I wish I was the tinman so I wouldn't have a heart to break
I'm ok, I'll survive
I only think about you half of the time
All these tears are just drops in the ocean baby
You barely even cross my mind, I'll be fine
No it doesn't hurt that much
It was only a papercut
Its only a papercut. papercut

The more I give, the less I get
Sometimes I wish that we never met
Cuz I was fine till you broke through
But don't worry baby, I'll get over you
By tomorrow or the next day, or the next day, or the next day

I'm ok, I'll be fine
I only think about you half the time
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

I'm ok, I'll survive
I only think about you half of the time
All those tears were just drops in the ocean baby
You never even cross my mind
No No
Boy you wish it hurt that much
it was only a papercut
Its only a papercut, papercut yeah
Its only a papercut, papercut yeah

I'm ok, I'm ok

Postcard lyrics - Jordin Sparks

It's pouring outside, and my roof is leaking
I just let the raindrops bleed out the ink from my notebook sheets, and
Today's a Thursday, and then it's three days late
I marked on the calendar, and circled today's date
This is the last straw, this isn't life here
I'm packing my dreams up, and leaving my nightmares

And they save the west til you feel the sunset
And there you'll become a star
So I traded my skinny jeans for dreams and limousines
And I'm gone

I'll send you a postcard, saying I'm alright (alright)
On the back, that I'm in love with life
I'll send you a postcard, and sign my name in the stars
My radio's turned up, a full tank in my car
And I promise we'll be together
I'll never say never, I'll always remember goodbye
'Cause I gotta go
I'll send you a postcard

Smashing on the gas, 95 on the highway
Got about a thousand more miles to go, I might make it by Friday
The road's never ending, I never slow pace, and
The choice is now all mine, for my destination
They ask why I'm rushing, my dreams are waiting
So fasten your seatbelt, 'cause I'm gonna make it

And they save the west til you feel the sunset
And there you'll become a star
So I traded my skinny jeans for dreams and limousines
And I'm gone

I'll send you a postcard, saying I'm alright (alright)
On the back, that I'm in love with life
I'll send you a postcard, and sign my name in the stars
My radio's turned up, a full tank in my car
And I promise we'll be together
I'll never say never, I'll always remember goodbye
'Cause I gotta go
I'll send you a postcard
I'll send you a postcard

To whom it may concern, whoever this gets to
There's no looking back, I took off my rearview
Got my hopes on the passenger side
There's only room for two
And I'll...

I'll send you a postcard, saying I'm alright (alright)
On the back, that I'm in love with life
I'll send you a postcard, and sign my name in the stars
My radio's turned up, a full tank in my car
And I promise we'll be together
I'll never say never, I'll always remember goodbye
'Cause I gotta go
I'll send you a postcard

Tattoo lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Oh, oh, oh

No matter what you say about love
I keep coming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire
Sooner or later, I'll get what I'm asking for

No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
That truth is a stranger
Soul is in danger, I gotta let my spirit be free

To admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I have to move on
And leave you behind

[Chorus:]
I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize, nothing's broken
No need to worry 'bout everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

(Just like a tattoo, I'll always have you
I'll always have you, I'll always have you)

I'm sick of playing all of these games
It's not about taking sides
When I looked in the mirror, didn't deliver
It hurt enough to think that I could

Stop, admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I gotta be strong
And leave you behind

[Chorus:]
I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize, nothing's broken
No need to worry 'bout everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

(Just like a tattoo, I'll always have you
I'll always have you)

If I live every moment
Won't change any moment
Still a part of me in you
I will never regret you
Still the memory of you
Marks everything I do

[Chorus x2]

Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you

No Air lyrics - Jordin Sparks (feat. Chris Brown)

[Jordin]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air

If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air
Oh

[Chris Brown]
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I can make you understand

[Jordin]
But how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus:]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

[Chris Brown]
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real

[Jordin]
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care

[Both:]
So how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus]

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No more
It's no air, no air

[Chorus]

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air

Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air

Freeze lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Hold the pose, a perfect picture
Just so I remember how you're looking tonight
Let it go, now the days gone
Standing in the dark, although we've turned on the lights

Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by
It's leaving you and I to...

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
Freeze
All over, we won't last forever
You said that you're sorry for pushing me
But then smiled when I opened my eyes
I'm gonna
Freeze
A moment, while we're together

Keep the peace, by gones be gone
Coming up the rain under the life that we've made
Under here, we're not so soft
Forgiving the feeling that we put on parade

Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by
It's leaving you and I to...

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
Freeze
All over, we won't last forever
You said that you're sorry for pushing me
But then smiled when I opened my eyes
I'm gonna
Freeze
A moment, while we're together

Don't stop, gotta know what you got
There's no second chances in life
Don't break, gotta give what you take
With you

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
Freeze
All over, we won't last forever

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
I Freeze
All over, we won't last forever
You looked at me with the truth in your eyes
And you said it's ok, you can go
I'm gonna
Freeze
This moment, while we're together

Freeze
A moment

Shy Boy lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Are you a shy boy?

Were in the door, I get a smile from a fly boy
He seen me before and makes his move like a fly boy
I'm sick and tired of them fly boys
It's bye bye boy

I'm in a lounge, I get a wink from a bad boy
He comes around all puffed up like a bad boy
I'm sick and tired of them bad boys

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know
Are you a shy boy?

I'm by the stage, I get a look from a rock boy
He's got the shades on indoors like a rock boy
I'm sick and tired of them rock boys
It's bye bye boy

Out on the floor, I get the moves from a home boy
Trying to score, his body rocks like a home boy
I'm sick and tired of them home boys

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know
Are you a shy boy?

Freak boy
Fresh boy
Slick boy
You're messing with a tom boy
Might just knock you out like a school boy
Crude boy
Playboy
Cowboy
I heard it all before, boy
I'm going out to get me a shy boy

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know
Are you a shy boy?

Shy boy
Shy boy
Shy boy
Shy boy
