It's Just Me Lyrics – Jon Bon Jovi

You know your favorite old pair of shoes
The ones with the hole in the toe you won't lose
Your favorite record that's all scratched and used
But still you love to play when your feeling blue

That faded rose that's all dried out
Those Bukowski poems we couldn't live without
Your high school picture when you had wild hair
That stormy day on the beach that got us here

And oh, you better believe
There's just one thing you need, oh, can't you see ...

It's just me baby, it's just me baby
There's just one thing that you should keep in your book of dreams
It's just me baby (it's just me)

Just like a shadow 10 feet tall
Standing right behind you should you fall
I'll be the one to hold you up to walk
When this wicked world makes us want to crawl

And if your waves should ever break at sea
I'll be there waiting, I'm that sandy beach
I'm the same old dog, scratching those same fleas
I'll be by your side, you can count on me

It's just me baby, it's just me baby
There's just one thing that you should keep in your book of dreams
It's just me baby, it's just me baby
What's it gonna take to make you see ?
What's it gonna take 'til you believe in me ? oh...

[Guitar solo]

Oh, how my smile fades and my heart just breaks every time you go away

But it's just me baby, it's just me baby
There's one more thing that you should keep in your book of dreams
It's just me baby, it's just me baby
What's it gonna take to make you see ?
What's it gonna take 'til you believe in me ?

And if someday some new memory comes along
Looking shiny, new, feeling really strong
You can tell him that I'll tell him he can just move on
I'm a fighter, I've been fighting for you all night long
It's just me baby, it's just me, it's just me baby, it's just me baby

Destination Anywhere Lyrics – Jon Bon Jovi

Hey babe, it's me parked outside your house
I know that he's asleep, so listen to me now
Darlin', I'm tired of living just in your dreams
I'm getting out
You know we both sold our souls
We're just growing old in this sleepy, dead-end town

Destination anywhere - Name the place, I'll be there
Pack a bag and we're out of here - let's run

Baby, we both been running uphill for too long
We both settled for something, got nothing
And we both know that it's wrong
Go on admit it if we lived it
I'm leaving, get your boots and come on
I've got my coat and my keys
I need you next to me then I'm gone, come on

Destination anywhere - Name the place and I'll be there
Pack a bag and we're out of here - let's run
Destination anywhere - Left or right, I don't care
Baby we'll just disappear like the sun, ooh...

[Guitar solo]

When these wheels spin, baby they can all eat our dust
As far as I'm concerned, this whole town lost its nuts
We won't be here when they put us down
It's our big chance, I'm calling you now
They'll never let us go unless we try
I'm tired of living just to die
We're getting out of here, destination anywhere

Destination anywhere - Name the place and I'll be there
Pack a bag and we're out of here - let's run
Destination anywhere - Left or right, I don't care
Maybe we'll just disappear chase the sun
Come on, come on, come on

Learning How To Fall Lyrics – Jon Bon Jovi

I was walking on a wire
Looking down, there was no net
Now, I'm standing at your door
Me and my last cigarette, oh

Yeah, we've been through this before
Too late to cover up my tracks
Damn the fool who begs for more
I'll take my past and paint it black

Now this circus has left town
This clown has gotta get his feet back on the ground

I'm learning how to fall (learning how to fall)
Learning how to take a hit (learning how to fall )
I had to walk before I crawled
It was winner take it all
Now I'm learning how to fall... (learning how to fall)
Yeah, I got the hang of it

I was standing in the light
There were faces all around
I put my gloves up for the fight
One sucker punch and I was down

I'm learning how to fall (learning how to fall)
Learning how to take a hit (learning how to fall)
Had to walk before I crawled
It was winner take it all
I'm learning how to fall... (learning how to fall)
Yeah, I got the hang of it

I was flying through the clouds
Pucker up, it's time to kiss the ground

I'm learning how to fall (learning how to fall)
Learning how to take a hit (learning how to fall)
Had to walk before I crawled
It was winner take it all
I'm learning how to fall... (learning how to fall)
Now I got the hang of it (learning how to fall), (learning how to fall), (learning how to fall)
Yeah I got the hang of it, (learning how to fall), (learning how to fall), (learning how to fall)
Learning how to fall, (learning how to fall), (learning how to fall), learning how to fall

Naked Lyrics – Jon Bon Jovi

My friend had a girlfriend
She liked her drink
Sucked the head off her lager
Threw me a wink
And she sang to me, "Buddy, what's your sign?"

I was off, I was runnin'
Knocked me clean off my feet
Her tongue kept on selling
What any blind man could see
And I just kept on stumbling through the stop signs

She said, "What's you hiding underneath that shirt?"
Right behind the buttons there's a heart that hurts
Adam's evening left the curse
Take it off make it work

Naked, naked - just get back to basics, yeah
Naked, face it - you can't fake it when you're (naked)
Naked (naked) face it
All I'm saying

The tail you been chasing
Put the K back in kink
Threw a coin in her jukebox
I started to think
But she just smiled and offered me a peace sign

How far you gonna run in those designer shoes ?
The soul with holes ain't gonna be the one you lose
I don't know which one is worse: Adam, me or you

Naked, naked - just get back to basics, yeah
Naked, face it - you can't fake it when you're (naked)
Naked (naked) face it
All I'm saying

[Guitar solo]

Take it, embrace it
Baby, here we are
Can't you almost ... taste it

Naked, naked - just get back to basics (yeah)
Naked, face it - you can't fake it when you're (naked)
Naked (naked, naked) naked (naked, naked) naked (naked, naked) naked (naked)
[Jon talking to fade]

Little City Lyrics – Jon Bon Jovi

I got my call light on, gimme one more fare tonight
Just get me over the bridge, I can see those shiny bay lights
You know I'm never alone but I'm feeling lonely tonight
Damn, I got my last cigarette but I ain't got no light

God let these wheels roll to where the girls are pretty
Where the nights explode and life is still living
Down this open road, the arms of pity
Wait to greet me tonight in little city

In my rear view mirror, I see someone else's hairline
I hear that fire in your eyes is on the rock and doing hard time
And the grapes of wrath, they're on the vine
There's wine in this dirt
Here love ain't love, tt's just another four letter word

God let these wheels roll to where the girls are pretty
Where the nights explode and life is still living
Down this open road, the arms of pity
Wait to greet me tonight in little city

shalalalalala, shalalalalala, shalalalalala, oh
shalalalalala, shalalalalala, shalalalalala, oh

God let these wheels roll to where the girls are pretty
Where the nights explode and life is still living
Down this open road, the arms of pity
Wait to greet me tonight in little city

Now that cold gray fog's just a rolling down the highway
He's come to carry me home
It puts a little smile on my face

Yeah, roll with me baby
I can see those daylights calling me home
Yeah, I'm never alone
Just turn the radio on
There's an old song I used to know

August 7, 4:15 Lyrics – Jon Bon Jovi

Ah...
It was another day
Perfect Texas afternoon
Mother and two children play
The way they always do
As they raced home from the mailbox
A mother and her son
Against a little girl of six years old
The independent one

Ah...
The deputies went door to door through all the neighborhood
They said I got some news to tell you folks
I'm afraid it ain't so good
Somehow something happened
Someone got away
Someone got the answers for what happened here today
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15

Now the people from the papers
And the local TV news tried to find the reason
Cop dogs sniffed around for clues
Someone shouted "Hit and run"
The coroner cried "Foul"
Her blue dress was what she wore
The day they laid her body down
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15
No...

[Guitar solo]

I know tonight that there's an angel up on Heaven's highest hill
And no one there can hurt you baby, no one ever will
Somewhere someone's conscience is like a burning bed
The flames are all around you
How you gonna sleep again ?
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15
