Verse 1: I was so in love with you back when you were a dancer. I asked you for a lifetime then but you never, you never answered. Times have changed I hear you're with a genius of mathematics. You wear his ring around your finger but you know you shouldn't have it. Pre: I think about that old love. I think about you and I. Well I know that you think you're in love, but leave him behind. Chorus: Go tell him that it's over. Go tell him that it's done. Go tell him that it's over. Cause you know I'm the only one. Verse 2: Kept trying to erase you from my memory. I couldn't do it. Trying to trick my mind into thinking you weren't good enough for me. No I couldn't fool it. No no no. Pre: I think about our old love. I think about you and I. I know you say that you're in love. But don't waste your time. Chorus: Go tell him that it's over. Go tell him that it's done. Go tell him that it's over. Cause you know I'm the only one. I'm the only one. Bridge: I know I was wrong when I was young But I am so sure that you're the one for me. Oh and I know I'm making you choose. But you see I'll never stop fighting for you. Chorus: Go tell him that it's over. Go tell him that it's done. Go tell him that it's over. Cause you know I'm the only one. (Only one, only one, only one) Go tell him that it's over. Go tell him that it's done. Go tell him that it's over. Cause you know I'm the only, only one. Outro

You know I love you, but I don't trust you. I cannot be your Crash Test X. Verse 3: Elevation was amazing in your eyes. I use to think about, about us all the time. I miss the arguments, I miss the making up. I was just a fool in love. Verse 4: I was intoxicated by the things you say. Oh, even now I look it's hard to look away. It's good to see you, oh yes it's been too long, But I can see that something is wrong. Chorus (2x) Bridge: Hey, give it up. No, I cannot Crash Test your love.

You're wearing me away one piece at a time. Oh could have just told me to change. Chorus: I can do what you want me to do. I can say what you want me to say. I will do what you want me to do. But I won't let you slip away. Let you slip away. Bridge: Yes I've tried every combination But every number seems to be wrong. It's hard to hear what you've been saying.

Away, Way, Away. Slip Away Baby - Vamp Out

Verse 1: You were not the same today. You were not the same today. The way you laughed, it almost sounded sad. You didn't have a lot to say. You were not the same today. You were not the same today. You changed your hair. The little things you wear. I saw you smiling to yourself. Like you'd found someone else. Verse 2: You were not the same today. You were not the same today. Those little things you usually do. No they weren't coming through. I held your hand you looked away. You were not the same today. You were not the same today. But still you stayed with me. But you see I cannot sleep. Cause you say you're waking early dawn. Tell me are you moving on. Outro: Don't set the alarm. You're only breaking my heart. Don't say that you'll leave or it will be over. Don't set the alarm. You're only tearing me apart. I don't want you to leave or it will be over. Don't set the alarm. You're only breaking my heart. Don't tell me to leave or it will be over. Don't set the alarm . You're only tearing me apart. I don't want you to leave or it will be over. I don't want you to leave or it will be over.

about

OVER is a story about the different ways we view and experience falling in and out of love. Love can be found or taken from us. Love is re-discovered, feared, protected and even lost. It can change right before our eyes in seconds and other times change over a lifetime. Love can blind us, heals us and even fade to nothing. What an amazing, powerful and controversial 4 letter word.

This album is inspired and influenced by the different SOUL / R&B eras. You may hear some STEVIE WONDER, PRINCE, MICHAEL JACKSON & SLY STONE. You'll also hear more current influences such as JAMIROQUAI, STING, ROBIN THICKE, D'ANGELO and more.....

Enjoy the album, and don't forget to spread the joy of music wherever you go. It is a true universal language.
JA
