R.E.M. - All The Right Friend

I know you say
Maybe some day
I need never be alone
I know I say
It's the right way
But you'll never be the one

I've been walking alone now
For a long, long time
I don't wanna hang out now
With the friends that just aren?t mine

Party to party
You've been looking
But your search will never end
You've been hanging
With the wrong crowd
You've got all the right friends

I've been walking alone now
For a long, long time
I don't want to hang out now
With the friends that just aren't mine

I said I don't wanna be with you anymore
I just don't want you anymore
I don't wanna be with you anymore
I just don't want you anymore


R.E.M. - At My Most Beautiful

I've found a way to make you
I've found a way
a way to make you smile

I read bad poetry
into your machine.
I save your messages
just to hear your voice.
you always listen carefully
to awkward rhymes.
you always say your name,
like I wouldn?t know it?s you,
at your most beautiful

I've found a way to make you
I've found a way
a way to make you smile

at my most beautiful
I count your eyelashes, secretly.
with every one, whisper I love you.
I let you sleep.
I know you?re closed eye watching me,
listening.
I thought I saw a smile.

I've found a way to make you
I've found a way
a way to make you smile
