Whole New You
Fat City
"Bound To You" by Shawn Colvin (Shawn Colvin/John Levinthal)

1st Verse

Well, I feel alive like I never have
Because if I go, then someone will be sad
Because as someone said, well, I'd rather die
But if you can stay, then darlin' so can I
And you know I will
Yeah, you know I will

Chorus

('Cause) I'm bound to you, and all that it means
I'm bound to you, there's no in-between
It's like (the) earth below and the sky of blue
Are bound to me and you

2nd Verse

And now every night, when the sun goes down
I remember times, like when I hit this town
All the dreams that just won't come true
I say, (if) you can do it, baby, (then) I can, too
And you know I will
Yeah, you know I will

(Chorus Out)



listen  "Climb On (A Back That's Strong)" by Shawn Colvin (Shawn Colvin/John Levinthal)

1st Verse

Oh, my soul
Sometimes we don't know what to do
We work so hard
Bein' tough on our own
But now it's me and you
Let's give it up
Sad bones
'Cause we all fall on hard times
But you don't have to stand up all alone
Just put your hand in mine

Chorus

(And) climb on
A back that's strong
Hey, hey
You can get what you want
(So) climb on
A back that's strong (oh, yeah)

2nd Verse

And if you could save me a place in Heaven
With a clean, well-lighted room
I'll muscle up to Armageddon
And I'll wave to you, darlin', be home soon
And if you could show me the story of love
I would write it again and again
And then you could be the woman you need
If you just let me be the man that I am, yeah

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Ah oh, I don't know
Sometimes we try too hard to see
But we got one down
And one more to go
That's when you say to me, hey

(Chorus Out)
