EVERYBODY'S FREE (TO WEAR SUNSCREEN)

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '97, Wear sunscreenIf I could offer you
only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.The long-term benefits of
sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no
basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.
I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth, oh never mind, you will never
understand the power and the beauty of your youth until they've faded.But trust
me, in twenty years, you will look back at photos of yourself and recall in a
way you can't grasp now, how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous
you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine. Don't worry about the
future or worry that know that worrying is as affective as trying to solve an
algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt
to be things that never crossed your worried mind. The kind that blindsides you
at 4 PM on some idle Tuesday.Do one thing every day that scares you.
Sing.
Don't be reckless with other peoples' hearts; don't put up with people who are
reckless with yours. Floss.Don't waste your time on jealously, sometimes you're
ahead, sometimes you're behind.The race is long and in the end, it's only with
yourself.Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults.If you succeed in
doing this, tell me how.Keep your old love letters; throw away your old bank
statements.

Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what to do with your life. The most
interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their
lives, some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.Get plenty
of calcium.Be kind to knees, you'll miss them when they're gone.Maybe you'll
marry, maybe you won't.Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't.Maybe you'll
divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the "Funky Chicken" on your 75th wedding
anniversary.Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much or berate
yourself either. Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's.Enjoy
your body.Use it every way you can, don't be afraid of it or what other people
think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.

Dance.
Even if you have nowhere to do it but your own living room.Read the directions
even if you don't follow them.Do not read beauty magazines, they will only make
you feel ugly.
Chorus
Brother and sister together will make it through,Some day a spirit will take
you and guide you there,I know you've been hurting, but I've been waiting to be
there for youAnd I'll be there just helping you out, whenever I ca-a-an
Get to know your parents.You never know when they'll be gone for good.Be nice
to your siblings.They are your best link to your past and the people most
likely to stick with you in the future.Understand that friends come and go.But
a precious few, who should hold on.Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography
and lifestyle, for as the older you get, the more you need the people you knew
when you were young.Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you
hard.Live in northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.
Accept certain alible truths: prices will rise, politicians will philander, you
too will get old and when you do, you'll fanaticise that when you were young,
prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their
elders.Respect your elders.Don't expect anyone else to support you.Maybe you
have a trust fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse but you'll never know
when either one will run out.Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time
you're forty, it will look eighty-five.Be careful whose advice you buy, but be
patient with those who supply it.Advice is a form of nostalgia.Dispensing it is
a way of wishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the
ugly parts and recycling for more than it's worth.But trust me on the
sunscreen.
Chorus
Everybody's Free, oh yeah, to feel good, ohhhhh, to feel good.

She Will Be Loved Lyrics

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

[in the background]
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah
[softly]
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Try so hard to say goodbye

If You Believe

I close my eyes and even when I’m sleeping I’m alright
Cause you are in my life
Once upon a time
I only imagined this
And now you’re mine
Wished for you so hard
Pray that you’d find me
Maybe you’re here today
Here to remind me

If you believe that dreams come true
There’s one that’s waiting there for you
Cause I believed when I saw you that when you want something enough
Then it can’t escape your love
There is nothing in the world that cannot be
If you believe

Everybody said that I was a fool to think that we connect
(Everybody said that) I couldn’t get my heart out of my head
They just didn’t see
No they just couldn’t know
The feeling that you get
The places that you go

If you believe that dreams come true
There’s one that’s waiting there for you
Cause I believed when I saw you
That when you want something enough
Then it can’t escape your love
There is nothing in the world that cannot be
If you believe

Never wished for material things
Never needed wind in my wings
I never wished for anything but you....
I can’t explain it
Someone just told me
Go where your heart is you’ll never be lonely

If you believe that dreams come true
There’s one that’s waiting there for you
Cause I believed when I saw you that when you want someone enough
Then they can’t escape your love
There is nothing in the world that cannot be
If you believe

"The Reason"

-Hoobastank-

I'm not a perfect person
As many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear

I've found a resaon for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
