Lirik Lagu Fool To Love You - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Fool To Love You -


Oh, it takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
Oh, and I'm just the fool for you

I really did it to myself I guess
I saw you standing in that cocktail dress
Oh, call the press and say my life is a mess
Because I must confess to you

That it takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
Oh, and I'm just the fool for you

Fool me once, it's shame on you
But twice, it's shame on me
But fool me baby for the rest of my life
And I'll be happy, happy as a broken man can be

Cause it takes a fool
It takes a fool
It takes a fool to love you
Oh, and I'm just the fool for you
Oh now I'm just the fool for you
I'm just the fool for you
I'm just the fool for you
I'm just the fool for you
I'm just the fool for you
I'm just the fool for you

Lirik Lagu Born And Raised (Reprise) - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Born And Raised (Reprise) -

Born and raised
Locks of brown and streaks of gray
I was brought up in brighter days
It’s good to say
Now I’m born and raised

Born and raised
In half the time I'll be twice my age
Better learn how to turn the page
'Cause time is strange
When you're born and raised

Born and raised
Locks of brown and streaks of gray
I was brought up in brighter days
It’s nice to say
Now I’m born and raised
Now I’m born and raised
Now I’m born and raised

Lirik Lagu A Face To Call Home - John Mayer

John Mayer

- A Face To Call Home -


I'm an architect
Of days that haven't happened yet
I can't believe a month is all it's been
You know my paper heart
The one I filled with pencil marks
I think I might've gone and inked you in

Little by little, inch by inch
We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it
It ain't much but it's a start
You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

So good you didn't see
The nervous wreck I used to be
You'd never know a man could feel so small
And you never look at me
Like I'm a liability
I bet you think I've never been at all

Little by little, inch by inch
We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it
And it ain't much, but it's a start
You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart

And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

A face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

Maybe I could stay a while,
Maybe I could stay a while,
Maybe I could stay a while,
I'm talkin' like all of the time

(Maybe I could stay a while)
Little by little, inch by inch,
(Maybe I could stay a while)
We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it,
(Maybe I could stay a while)
And it ain't much, but it's a start,
(I'm talkin' like all of the time)
You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart

And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

Lirik Lagu Whisky, Whisky, Whisky - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Whisky, Whisky, Whisky -

We pick up in New York City
Tryin' to find the man I never got to be
When I push down on the pavement
I found the whole thing so much harder than it seems

The only deal I ever signed
No devil drew a dotted line
The stage was set, the words were mine
I'm not complaining

Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Wake up, shake it off
And repeat

It's just a phase
It's not forever
It's just a phase
But I still might have a ways to go

Every night around this time
My friends and I, we treat it like a race
When I really start to break it down
I wouldn't trust a girl who knew about this place

Walking home with no one left
Speak softly underneath my breath
Hey world, you ain't seen nothing yet
Great, now it's raining

Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Wake up, shake it off
And repeat

It's just a phase
It's not forever
It's just a phase
But I still might have a ways

Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Dreamed somebody missed me
Wake up, shake it off
And repeat it, repeat it, repeat after me

Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Cut me off and pour me in the street

Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep

Lirik Lagu Walt Grace's Submarine Test, January 1967 - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Walt Grace's Submarine Test, January 1967 -


Walt Grace, desperately hating his old place
Dreamed to discover a new space and buried himself alive
Inside his basement
The tongue on the side of his face meant
He's working away on displacement
And what it would take to survive

'Cause when you're done with this world
You know the next is up to you

And his wife told his kids he was crazy
And his friends said he'd fail if he tried
But with the will to work hard and a library card
He took a homemade, fan blade, one-man submarine ride

That morning the sea was mad and I mean it
Waves as big as he'd seen it deep in his dreams at home
From dry land, he rolled it over to wet sand
Closed the hatch up with one hand
And pedaled off alone

'Cause when you're done with this world
You know the next is up to you

And for once in his life, it was quiet
As he learned how to turn in the tide
And the sky was aflare when he came up for air
In his homemade, fan blade, one-man submarine ride

One evening, when weeks had passed since his leaving
The call she planned on receiving finally made it home
She accepted the news she never expected
The operator connected the call from Tokyo
'Cause when you're done with this world
You know the next is up to you

Now his friends bring him up when they're drinking
At the bar with his name on the side
And they smile when they can, as they speak of the man
Who took a homemade, fan blade, one-man submarine ride

Lirik Lagu Love Is A Verb - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Love Is A Verb -


Love is a verb
It ain't a thing
It's not something you own
It's not something you scream

When you show me love
I don't need your words
Yeah love ain't a thing
Love is a verb
Love ain't a thing
Love is a verb

Love ain't a crutch
It ain't an excuse
No you can't get through love
On just a pile of IOUS

Love ain't a drug
Despite what you've heard
Yeah love ain't a thing
Love is a verb
Love ain't a thing
Love is a verb

So you gotta show, show, show me
Show, show, show me
Show, show, show me
That love is a verb

Yeah you gotta show, show, show me
Show, show, show me
Show, show, show me
That love is a verb

Love ain't a thing
Love is a verb

Lirik Lagu If I Ever Get Around To Living - John Mayer

John Mayer

- If I Ever Get Around To Living -

If I ever get around to living,
I'm gonna put my things away
In the drawers and in the closets
There I'll stay
Stay

If I ever get around to living,
It's gonna be just like I dreamed
I'm gonna take the love I'm given
And set it free
Free

If I ever get around to living,
I'll take the end of every day
Tie it up to every morning
And sail away
Away

Free, free

Maybe it's all a dream I'm having at seventeen
I don't have tattoos
And very soon, mother will be calling me
Saying, "Come upstairs, you've got some work to do"

When you gonna wise up, boy?
When you gonna wise up, boy?
When you gonna wise up, boy?
When you gonna wise up, boy?
You are hiding in your mind
Working all the time
Trying to make it better than you got it
And you've been spending all your time searching for a sign
That's never gonna look the way you want it
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy

Lirik Lagu Born And Raised - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Born And Raised -


Now and then I pace my place
I can't retrace how I got here
I cheat the light to check my face
It's slightly harder than last year

[CHORUS]
And all at once it gets hard to take
It gets hard to fake what I won't be
Cause one of these days I'll be born and raised
And it's such a waste to grow up lonely

I still have dreams, they're not the same
They don't fly as high as they used to
I saw my friend, he's in my head
And he said, "You don't remember me, do you?"

[CHORUS]
Then all at once it gets hard to take
It gets hard to fake what I won't be
Cause one of these days I'll be born and raised
And it's such a waste to grow up lonely

I still got time, I still got faith
I call on both of my brothers
I got a mom, I got a dad
But they do not have each other

[CHORUS]
So line on up, and take your place
And show your face to the morning
Cause one of these days you'll be born and raised
And it all comes on without warning

Lirik Lagu Something Like Olivia - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Something Like Olivia -


Well Olivia's taken
But a look like hers can be found from time to time

Well Olivia's taken
But a look like hers can be found from time to time

I'm thinking something like Olivia
Is what I need to find

There's only one man in this world
Who gets to sleep with her by his side

There's only one man in this world
Who gets to sleep with her by his side

I'm thinking something like Olivia
Can keep me through the night

Now I'm not trying to steal
No love away from no one man
No I'm not trying to steal
No love away from no one man

But if Olivia herself were at my door
I'd have to say I'd let her in

Something like Olivia
Something like Olivia
Something like Olivia
Something like Olivia

I keep thinking something like Olivia
Is what I need to find

Something like Olivia
Something like Olivia
Something like Olivia
Something like Olivia [fade out]

Lirik Lagu Speak For Me - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Speak For Me -


Now the cover of a Rolling Stone
Ain't the cover of a Rolling Stone
And the music on my radio
Ain't supposed to make me feel alone

What a drag to know
I have to learn to let it go

Show me something I can be
Play a song that I can sing
Make me feel as I am free
Someone come speak for me

Now they're celebrating broken things
I don't want a world of broken things
You can tell that something isn't right
When all your heroes are in black and white

What a drag to say
At least I still have yesterday
Show me something I can be
Play a song that I can sing
Make me feel as I am free
Someone come speak for me
Someone come speak for me

La di da di da
La di da di da
La di da di da di da
La di da di da di da
Oh yeah

I'm not mad about it
But I'm not mad about it
I'm not mad about it
But I'm not that mad about it
Just show me something I can be
Play a song that we can sing
Make us feel as we are free
Someone come speak for me
Someone come speak for me
Someone come speak for me

Now the cover of a Rolling Stone
Ain't the cover of a Rolling Stone

Lirik Lagu Shadow Days - John Mayer

John Mayer

- Shadow Days -


Did you know that you could be wrong
And swear you're right
Some people been known to do it
All their lives

But you find yourself alone
Just like you found yourself before
Like I found myself in pieces
On the hotel floor

Hard times, help me see

I'm a good man with a good heart
Had a tough time, got a rough start
But I finally learned to let it go
Now I'm right here, and I'm right now
And I'm open, knowing somehow
That my shadow days are over
My shadow days are over now

Well I ain't no trouble maker
And I never meant her harm
But it doesn't mean I didn't make it
Hard to carry on

Well it sucks to be honest (honest)
And it hurts to be real
But it's nice to make some love
That I can finally feel

Hard times, let me be

I'm a good man with a good heart
Had a tough time, got a rough start
But I finally learned to let it go
Now I'm right here, and I'm right now
And I'm open, knowing somehow
That my shadow days are over
My shadow days are over now
[x2]

Lirik Lagu The Age Of Worry - John Mayer

John Mayer

- The Age Of Worry -


Close your eyes and clone yourself
Build your heart an army
To defend your innocence
While you do everything wrong

Don't be scared to walk alone
Don't be scared to like it
There's no time that you must be home
So sleep where darkness falls

Alive in the age of worry
Smile in the age of worry
Go wild in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, why should I care?"

Know your fight is not with them
Yours is with your time here
Dream your dreams but don't pretend
Make friends with what you are

Give your heart then change your mind
You're allowed to do it
'Cause God knows it's been done to you
And somehow you got through it

Alive in the age of worry
Rage in the age of worry
Sing out in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, why should I care?"

Rage in the age of worry
Act your age in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, get out of here!"

Lirik Lagu Queen Of California - John Mayer

John Mayer

 

- Queen Of California -

Goodbye cold, goodbye rain
Goodbye sorrow, goodbye shame
I'm headed out west with my headphones on
Boarded a flight with a song in the back of my soul
And no one knows

I just found out her ghost left town
The Queen of California is stepping down, down

Hello beauty, hello strange
Hello wonder, what's your name?
Looking for the sun that Neil Young hung
After the gold rush of 1971

I just found out her ghost left town
The Queen of California is stepping down, down

[INSTRUMENTAL]

If you see her say, "Hello"
Just don't tell me, "I told you so"
Joni wrote Blue in her house by the sea
I gotta believe there’s another color waiting on me
To set me free

I just found out her ghost left town
The Queen of California is stepping down, down

[INSTRUMENTAL]
