"Even When You're Not There (Get A Life)" by Jenny Simpson (Ray Methvin/Pound Lamb)

1st Verse

I keep my eyes straight ahead
I don't look right, I don't look left
I do my best to pretend
To ignore you so this will end
Try as I may you never seem to learn
I swear I see you everywhere I turn

Chorus

Get a job, get a hobby
Get a life of your own
Get a dog that you can talk to
Leave me alone
I could get along without you
But you don't play fair
(Oh) you follow me wherever I go
Even when you're not there

2nd Verse

Just when I'm sure I'm doing fine
I find someone who gets you off of my mind
It's kinda eerie this deja vu
But every word they say reminds me of you
Isn't there somewhere you'd rather be
Than hangin' 'round in my memory

(Chorus Out)

I hear ya, I hear ya, I hear ya, yeah
Even when you're not there



"Under The Rainbow" by Jenny Simpson (Ray Methvin/James Nihan)

1st Verse

I'm over rainbows and reaching for stars
Dreams can come true without going that far
If I looked for love like I always do
With my head in the clouds I might have missed you

Chorus

Under the rainbow lo and behold
There was my fortune, there was my gold
I never knew
I would ever find you
Under the rainbow

2nd Verse

I've chased enough rainbows so I oughta know
There only illusions, they come and they go
Some say that treasure lies at the end
But I have no reason to wonder again

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus)

I can't believe
You were waiting for me
Under the rainbow



"One Word" by Jenny Simpson (Don Schlitz/Angela Kaset)

1st Verse

He'd been working up his nerve for quite a while
He wore his lucky shirt and his best smile
The waiter poured the wine
He waited for the perfect time
With the roses there beside her
And the candles in her eyes

Chorus

She just said one word, he wanted three
He didn't know his heart could break so easily
It was a simple conversation, short but not so sweet
She just said one word, he wanted three

2nd Verse

They talked about the weather 'til dinner came
How the sunniest of days could end in rain
He didn't eat a bite
He said, "I've lost my appetite"
She said, "It's so romantic
I wish that I felt different"

(Repeat Chorus)

3rd Verse

And as he walked his friend out
As sure as he was able
Her left the tip and his well-planned
"I love you" on the table

It was a simple conversation, but it brought him to his knees
She just said one word, he wanted three
