THE GIRL FOR ALL THE WORLD
words & music by Matt Bosson

She’s the girl for all the world
With a friend like her you can always be sure
She always makes it look so easy
If you’re feeling down she’s got the cure
Will she ever find true love?
Will she ever rise above
Her own doubt?
Well I met that girl some years ago
She was so cool and I was just a fool
She always knew just how to play me
She don’t break the law but she bends the rule
Will she never end the run?
Will she ever be the one
Who’s in love?
Now by this time I made up my mind
I told that girl for all the world
She said she understood completely
I knew she would because she’s my girl
I wonder what’s become?
Could there be someone
That loves her?

TWO ROADS
words & music by Leslie & Matt Bosson
(c) 2006 Bossonova Music (BMI)
If I have a bad reaction
Then you know
I should have gone long ago
But if I find my satisfaction
You can believe
It’s what I left there to retrieve
Please don’t remind me
Always something else
Going wrong
With you behind me
Well I couldn’t run
For very long
Now I know it’s a disaster
But after all
Will you be home when I call?
Seems we’re always going faster
So step aside
If you don’t want to take the ride
Please don’t remind me
Always something else
Going wrong
With you behind me
Well I couldn’t run
For very long
So the dust has come to settle
I still remain
And you’re with me once again
Too close we came to mettle
But look around
And you’ll see what we have found
Will you remind me
Of where we’ve been
And where we are
With you beside me
We’ll sing a song
And play guitar

A OKAY
words & music by Matt Bosson

Darling, I don’t want to leave
But I ain’t worked since New Year’s Eve
If I have to go away
You bet I’ll be coming home one day
In between you know I’ll be A Okay
I will hold the heart of you
I will keep the heart of you
Now I know you understand
As we sit here hand in hand
Even though I cannot stay
Gone how long, who can say?
Even so you know I’ll be A Okay
I will hold the heart of you
I will keep the heart of you

DON'T THAT MAKE NO SENSE
words & music by Matt Bosson
(c) 2010 Bossonova Music (BMI)
Honey you may not agree with me
But you gotta give me credit ‘cause I’m able to see
Your point of view, it’s not up to you or me
Like it or not, it’s just the race we’re in
We keep on runnin’ but we never can win
We’re movin’ today and that’s more than some can say
Ain’t no chance that we’ll take a stance
‘Cause we’re sick and tired of TV romance
We play along and sing our songs
And we fool ourselves to think nothing’s gone wrong
Now don’t that make no sense?
Don’t that make no sense?
Don’t that make no sense to you?
Give it time and the change will come
Won’t look like much but it is to some
Just take what you need and then pass it on to me
Climbing up you might step on a few
But we’re all getting paid so what’s it to you
You’re number one, and I’m clearly number two
So don’t be sucker, don’t play the fool
Talk is cheap don’t mean that it’s cool
We play along and sing our songs
And we fool ourselves to think nothing’s gone wrong
Now don’t that make no sense?
Don’t that make no sense?
Don’t that make no sense to you?

SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA
words & music by Matt Bosson
(c) 2010 Bossonova Music (BMI)
Well it seemed like a good idea -- at the time
Lord I had only the best intentions -- on my mind
Yes in retrospect I can see I neglected to keep myself in line
It just seemed like a good idea -- at the time
Now you hit your head when I ran that red – but I tried to swerve
I got no excuse and I accept your rebukes – the least I deserve
I know you’re right and so I’ll be contrite – I don’t mean to whine
It just seemed like a good idea – at the time
I truly understand that you are angry
I know I finally pushed you to the line
You know I rue the day when I threw it all away
It just seemed like a good idea – at the time
Well I took our life savings to indulge my cravings – but I felt so bad
So with our last buck, well I tried my luck – but it was pretty sad
Now I’m always in trouble but this time it’s for double -- Lord I’m lookin’ for a sign
It just seemed like a good idea –
Well it seemed like a good idea -- at the time
Lord I had only the best intentions -- on my mind
Yes in retrospect I can see I neglected to keep myself in line
It just seemed like a good idea -- at the time

I STILL LOVE YOU (LIKE I LOVED YOU BEFORE)
words & music by Matt Bosson
(c) 2010 Bossonova Music (BMI)
Won’t you love me like you loved me before
Can’t you see that you’re still the one that I adore
As I lie here all alone
While another can call you her own
I still love you like I loved you before
When I came home and I knew you were gone
I cried with relief ‘cause you always done me wrong
So I changed all the locks on the doors
Got a lawyer to settle the score
But I still love you like I loved you before
Don’t forget that I know what you said
As a vow on the day that we wed
But I know now what you told me was a lie
And I know I can never forget
But I know I will always regret
The way we had to end it
After all ---
Won’t you love me like you loved me before
There’s no chance for us now that you walked out that door
I knew the first minute you strayed
And I knew that I’d have to pay
But I still love you like I loved you before

OLD GIRL
words & music by Matt Bosson
(c) 2010 Bossonova Music (BMI)
That Old Girl understood
While she still could
She’d keep on ridin’
And once she got away
Well who can say?
She wasn’t hidin’
Old Girl come home
You don’t know what it’s like to be alone
Old Girl come home
You don’t know what it’s like to be alone
And in that heart of gold
She must have sold
What she believed in
And if she still loved me
I guarantee
She’d soon be leavin’
Old Girl come home
You don’t know what it’s like to be alone
Old Girl come home
You don’t know what it’s like to be alone
And brother, if I knew
Where that Old Girl got to
You know I’d have it made
But now there is no hope
Like reaching for the rope
Because I was afraid
Old Girl come home
You don’t know what it’s like to be alone
Old Girl come home
You don't know what it's like to be alone
You don't know what it's like to be alone
You don’t know what it’s like… to be alone
