Jason Mraz, Live High

I try to picture a girl
Through a looking glass
See her as a carbon atom
See her eyes and stare back at them
See that girl
As her own new world
Though a home is on the surface, she is still a universe

Glory God, oh God is peeking through the blinds
Are we all here standing naked
Taking guesses at the actual date and time
Oh my, justifying reasons why
Is an absolutely insane resolution to live by

Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously

Try to picture the man
To always have an open hand
See him as a giving tree
See him as matter
Matter fact he's not a beast
No not the devil either
Always a good deed doer
Were it's laughter that we're makin after all

The call of the wild is still an ordination why
And the order of the permeates
All our politics are too late
Oh my, the congregation in my mind
Is this assembly singing gratitude
Practicing their livin love you

Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously

Just take it easy
And celebrate the malleable reality
Because nothing is ever as it seems
This life is but a dream

Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously
Let's takin it easy
Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously
Let's takin it easy

Jason Mraz, Divorce Song

The man who came to dinner i swear
he ate just about everyting on his plate
well he was my date
the lady who sat across from me
she swore oh she thought she'd seen me before
and i reminded her of this particular guy
the guy she thought that i might be
was the one eating everything sitting next to me
funny i, i never knew she was blind

'Cause half the time my mind is off and running
running for my life, tripping out in the open
half the time my heart can hardly stand it
standing on it's own, tripping over the ocean
like a cold, cold stone
just a cold, cold-hearted stone, stone

Well i never thought i'd ever want to see a pretty
woman
in the ? like that oh the clothes she wore
with her heart sewn on her shoulder
and i never thought i'd ever want to look into her
eyes
and realize that i too might be blind
by god i'm just a son of a bitch who's blind

'Cause half the time my mind is off and running
running for my life, tripping out in the open
but half the time my heart can hardly stand it
standing on it's own, it's tripping over the ocean
like a cold, cold stone
just a cold, cold-hearted stone, stone

Can anyone commit to an interesting relationship
that's fit for two, or more
you know that's up to you
whether you're fit as a fiddle
there's somethin in the middle
well it divides you and i
and it's love you, i love you, i love you,
i...lied
to keep my fantasy alive
well all my miracles have died and now my pain is
brown and dry
so it's bye bye, bye bye, bye bye cold, cold stone
bye bye bye, bye bye, bye bye stone
you see i'm just a cold, cold-hearted stone, stone

Jason Mraz, Common Pleasure

I remember when we used to walk together
Used to talk together, go to the park together
In all kinds of weather we would share
This common pleasure with most of human kinds
It was a kind of treasure One that I was surely glad to find
But I got one right here and I'm okay
I'm okay, and you're okay, and we're okay
I'm alright. Everything else is alright sometimes.


Just remember those bones they get broken
And love is not a token of affection
It's not even a real thing, it's a word
So don't you try to but it out with a ring
Cause it's a verb, to love someone
Open up and let them in
just don't be afraid to set them free again


This ain't no heaven, ain't no hell , ain't no in between
Cause there's just too many faces and places in this world
That I ain't ever seen
I'm gonna keep on keeping on
I'm gonna reap on being strong
I got my head on, though misconnected
It's alright cause I do it protected
I got a day job. I drive a cheap ride
Sounds like I'm gonna fine
You only get one life to learn
There's only so many brain cells that you can burn
And life can take a turn and take away that you've earned
And leave you yearning for more, so much more
Life is gonna leave you yearning for more, more, more
Your stomach's gonna be churning
Wanting more, you're wanting, wanting some more.
You're wanting some more, more, more
Do you want some?


Well I got some right here and I'm okay
I'm okay and you're okay
Ha ha, we're okay
Everything else will be fine sometimes.
Guess what I'm doing okay.

Jason Mraz, Little You & I

you close your eyes

you say goodnight in your own special way

you rest your head and you rest your mind

and there you go



there you go so fast, so fast asleep

there you are without a care when or where

but there you are I swear without a care where it is you lay




spiraling spaces tangled up in moments of touching time

trying to find some somewhere sleeping sideways

pockets full of nothing, head exploding from the mind

too much time for dancing in our hair

sister don't be shy between little you and I



mouths in line, tears beside

and we're gonna weep in between the sleep

until we float away into broken promises

too much too hard to keep



and we would sell our souls to the devil if he promised us hell

it's something we already know so well

and it's right on, right on the tip of our tongue

something big that has already begun

(something dead but not quite numb)

and I'm singing it




mouths in line, tears beside

and we're gonna weep in between the sleep

until we float away into broken promises

too much too hard to keep

Jason Mraz, Boy's Gone

The boy's gone. The boy's gone home.

What will happen to a face in the crowd when it finally gets too crowded.
And will happen to the origins of sound after all the sounds have sounded
Well I hope I never have to see that day but by god I know it's headed our way
So I better be happy now that the boy's going home. The boy's gone home.

And what becomes of a day for those who rage against it
And who will sum op the phrase for all left standing around in it

Well I suppose we'll all make our judgement call
We'll walk it alone, stand up tall, then march to the fall
So we better be happy now that we'll all go home.

Be so happy with the way you are
Be so happy that you made it this far
Go on be happy now. Please be happy now

Because this is something else
this is something else

I tried to live my life and live it so well
But when it's all over is it heaven or is it hell
I better be happy now that no one can tell, nobody knows
I'm gonna be happy with the way that I am
I'm gonna be happy with all that I stand for
I'm gonna be happy now because the boy's going home.

The boy's gone home.

Jason Mraz, The World Exploded Into Love

there's a universe and it can't be seen
it's a feeling if you know what i mean
a delectable dimension undetectable by sight
it'll fill up your heart in the dead of the night
and some say there's an astral plain
it can't be described it can't be explained

and the world exploded into love all around me
and the world exploded into love all around me
everytime i take a look around me
i have to smile

well is there life well it's just an illusion
there's no need to figure it out
the separtation that exists not in your love
filled hearts
but it's only in her mind through the stories all
around you
even now it surrounds
even now i feel the power

oh the world exploded into love all around me
the world exploded into love all around me
and everytime i take a look around me
i smile

Jason Mraz, Geek In The Pink

Well let the geek in the pink take a stab at it
If you like the way I'm thinkin' baby wink at it
I may be skinny at times but I'm fat fulla rhymes
Pass me the mic and I'm a grab at it
Well isn't it delicious crazy way that I'm kissin'
Cause baby listen to this don't wanna miss it while it's hittin'
Sometimes you gotta fit in to get in
But don't ever quit cause soon I'm gonna let you in but see

I don't care what you might think about me
You'll get by without me if you want
I could be the one to take you home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't be a let down
But sugar don't forget what you already know
That i could be the one to turn you on
We could be the talk across the town
Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
You might regret what you let slip away
Like the geek in the pink

I'm the geek in the pink pink pink
I'm the geek in the pink yeah

Well this relationship fodder don't mean to bother nobody
But Cupid's automatic musta fired multiple shots at her
Because she fall in love too often that's what the matter
At least I talk about it keep a pattern of flattery and
She was starin' through the doorframe and
Eyeing me down like already a bad boyfriend
Well she can get her toys outta the drawer then
Cause I ain't comin' home I don't need that attention, see

I don't care what you might think about me
You'll get by without me if you want
I could be the one to take you home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't be a let down
But sugar don't forget what you already know
That i could be the one to turn you on
You could be the talk across the town
Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
You might regret what you let slip away


Hey baby look at me go
From zero to hero
You better take it from a geek like me
Well, I can save you from unoriginal dum-dums
Who wouldn't care if you com...plete him or not

So what I've got a short attention span
A coke in my hand
Because I'd rather have the afternoon, relax and understand
My hip hop and flip-flops it don't stop with the light rock
A shot to mock you kinda puts me in the tight spot
The hype is nothing more than hoo-ha so I'm
Developing a language and I'm callin' it my own
So take a peek into the speaker and you'll see what I mean
That on the other side the grass is greener

I don't care what you might think about me
You'll get by without me if you want
I could be the one to take you home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't be a let down
But sugar don't forget what you already know
That i could be the one to turn you on
We could be the talk across the town
Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
You might regret what you let slip away
Like the geek in the pink

I'm the geek in the pink pink pink
I'm the geek in the pink yeah
I'm the geek in the pink
All y'all geek is the new color for fall

Jason Mraz, Cosmic Dancer

I was dancin when i was 12
I was dancin when i was 12
I was dancin when i was out
I was dancin when i was out
Dance myself out of the womb
Dance myself out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I dance myself out of the womb

I was dancin when i was 8
I was dancin when i was 8
Is it strange to dance so late
Is it strange to dance so late
I dance myself into the tomb
I dance myself into the tomb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I dance myself into the tomb

I, i
Is it wrong to understand
The fear that dwells inside a man
What's it like to be a loon
I liken it to a balloon

I dance myself out of the womb
I dance myself out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I dance myself into the tomb

I, i
I was dancin when i was
I was dancin when i was
I was dancin, always dancin
I was dancin, i
I dance myself into the tomb
I dance myself into the tomb
To soon
Back in my room

Jason Mraz, Lucky featuring Colbie Caillat

(feat. Colbie Caillat)

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
