Vallerina 05:06
She laughs She smiles She knows it drives me wild She smize She lies It’s something about her eyes I laughs I smiles I knows it drives me wild I smize I lies He’s not like other guys I saw you from afar I knew I wanna get closer I had to know who you are But the stars said I wasn’t ’sposed to But I took a chance And asked for your line You said no But then you went asked for mine You said your name was Vallerina Sho good nuff to meet ya Can I take you out for a date some time? Said you’re in and out of town But when you’re back around Maybe we could go for a glass of wine A red merlot Or cabernet Time with you Is worth the wait She laughs She smiles She knows it drives me wild She smize She lies It’s something about her eyes I laughs I smiles I knows it drives me wild I smize I lies He’s not like other guys Like Romeo and Juliet Is this a love we won't forget? She laughs She smiles She knows it drives me wild She smize She lies It’s something about her eyes I laughs I smiles I knows it drives me wild I smize I lies He’s not like other guys

Digital Love 03:53
Even through all the distance We’ve really gotten to know each other And in this short time I know I want to make you mine We’ve got so much in common Like Our favorite shows And dominoes Imagine all we could do if we were Together right now How sweet would it be If we could meet In reality If we could touch There’d be no rush We’d take our time How sweet would it be If we could meet In reality If we could touch There’d be no rush We’d take our time There’s nothing wrong with wanting more And more and more Girl what we’ve got’s amazing But I know there’s much to explore Have you ever thought about your future And how it might include me Am I holding you close Whispering sweet nothings About all the things we couldn’t do digitally How sweet would it be If we could meet In reality If we could touch There’d be no rush We’d take our time How sweet would it be If we could meet In reality If we could touch There’d be no rush We’d take our time You know what baby I wish there more to us than just 0 and 1 I never thought I’d fall in love digitally But now that I have I know I want the real thing Even more

Let go all of all the things that are on your mind and lose yourself with me I brought your favorite food and kind of wine and I've got more for you to see while the candlelight glows we can dance slow there's no one here to intercede there's no need to be scared you can trust me i swear so take my hand and follow my lead we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark I had no clue you can move the way you do you're like a shooting star flying across the sky When I put my arms around you girl i can't help but want to stand still in time while the candlelight glows we can dance slow no one here to intercede there's no need to be scared you can trust me i swear so take my hand and follow my lead we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark I've been looking for awhile for someone of your profile and I hope its you I know its you so lets make sure this ain't the last time that we dance 'cause you make me feel complete we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark we're movin' we're groovin' said we're dancing in the dark

I Can't Stop 05:39
I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you Babe I can’t lie You’ve been on my mind Every since the last time We kissed and said good night Works got you busy And your schedule all jammed up Would you mind a surprise drop by ‘Cause baby I can’t get enough You got me ‘round your finger Babe I’ll do just want you want Call me day or night babe you’ve got Both my ears and heart I wanna make you happy Baby anyway I can Let me comfort, love ya Please ya, tease ya Girl cause I’m your man I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you There’s something about you That has me infatuated Maybe it’s your perfume That’s so intoxicating Or could it be your smile Or the sexy way you stroll Or maybe it’s your eyes And how they look into my soul You got me ‘round your finger Babe I’ll do just want you want Call me day or night babe you’ve got Both my ears and heart You make me so damn happy I just wanna do the same I’ll do anything And everything To make you feel this way I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you It’s been a few days since We last talked I called, left messages But no response at all Can’t help myself but wonder If you’re not alone Baby will you call me As soon as you get home Your love is all All I need To make me whole And feel complete I’ll put it all on the line To make you mine So baby please just call I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you I can’t stop Loving you

Time Apart 03:58
All the time I was dropping hints That I was not the one That you would get serious with Having fun Is all I want to do It just so happens that I love having fun with you Why you wanna go and Change the game we play Thought you've seen beyond the trees But now you want to go and make things strange I'm not gonna lead you on I just want to have a good time I'm not gonna say move on But maybe we should draw a line Babe, I'm no good For your heart I tried to tell you From the start Said I'm no good For your heart I really think we Need time apart I know this ain't The thing you want to hear But this might be The end of our Love affair 'Cause I care about you baby But the way you're acting lately Has me feeling You want more Than I am willing To give Why you wanna go and Change the game we play Thought you've seen beyond the trees But now you want to go and make things strange I'm not gonna lead you on I just want to have a good time I'm not gonna say move on But maybe we should draw a line Babe I'm no good For your heart I tried to tell you From the start Said I'm no good For you heart I really think we Need time apart Settling down Isn't an option for me I have dreams to live And the world to see Don't take it so hard The one for you is not me I know you need some time But before you leave You need to understand You have every quality in a man That I would want if I were ready to settle And shelter in This is merely a case of Being the wrong time at the right place It hurts to see the hurt on your face But I know the damage would be worse If I let it continue I'm sorry

Heartbreaker 04:20
I gotta know how you do it Do you mean to hurt the one you love Don’t deny me Don’t you do it I thought you were sent from above Now I’m here wondering why I gave my heart up to another lie You gave me hope in having something real But now my heart turns slowly into steel She’s a heart Breaker No-one know how to tame here She’s a heart Breaker But her love is something so contagious She’s a heart Breaker No-one know how to tame here She’s a heart Breaker But her love is something so contagious I admit I was pressing Never fell this hard before Your late nights at work had me stressing I said some thing that really weren’t called for Now I’m here wondering why I let myself get caught up in the lies Cause in my heart I knew what was real But all the rumors surrounding were still That she’s a… She’s a heart Breaker No-one know how to tame here She’s a heart Breaker But her love is something so contagious She’s a heart Breaker No-one know how to tame here She’s a heart Breaker But her love is something so contagious Baby sweetie sugar pie You were the apple of my eye Cookie candy honey bee Just look at what you’ve done to me Can’t sleep or eat or clear my mind I think about you all the time Baby I just hear me out I just wanna feel your love again She’s a heart Breaker No-one know how to tame here She’s a heart Breaker But her love is something so contagious She’s a heart Breaker No-one know how to tame here She’s a heart Breaker But her love is something so contagious
