For Tonight 03:28
You’ve got me in your pocket next to your keys And you know just what to do and how to please You’ve got me looking in your bedroom eyes And everything that I see in them cuts me down to size But it’s so hard being here with you When so many other men want you too I’m not ashamed to say I’m insecure But you can put my mind at ease When you give my hand a little squeeze I know it’ll be alright for tonight You’ve got me running rampant and working up a sweat And you’ve got me on a string like a marionette Your voice is so inviting and your words are sweet But your conversation leaves me feeling incomplete But it’s so hard being here with you I hope I can find a way to please you too I’ve never done this kind of thing before But you can put my woes to rest When I feel your head against my chest I know It’ll be alright for tonight But it’s so hard being here with you When so many other men want you too I’m not ashamed to say I’m insecure But you can put my mind at ease When you give my hand a little squeeze I know it’ll be alright for tonight I know it’ll be alright for tonight

The only thing I do Is run around in circles chasing after you Ignoring all I’ve said My messages to you all seem to be left unread But you don’t even care You wouldn’t even be there And when all is said and done You’re just too good for anyone You’ll do what you will But don’t use me to take up time you need to kill You always beg and plead Attention is the only thing you seem to need But you don’t seem to mind So I’ll just let you be blind I won’t be part of your hit and run You’re just too good for anyone You’ve got so many chasing after you And yet you’re standing still It sure must be a thrill And all you want is a man who’ll put you on display And with a girl like you on his shoulder Every little thing is going to go your way But you don’t even care You wouldn’t even be there And when all is said and done You’re just too good for anyone You're just too good for anyone

Emily 03:25
Whenever I was lonely She would always be there for me That silly girl She was my companion Why’d she have to go abandon me My Emily Emily you broke my heart happy ever after Why couldn't I see through your beauty And your funny laughter Emily you proved to me That sometimes things aren't always as they seem My Emily More than just a lover She was someone like no other And that’s the truth But now it’s just a memory I think that’s something that we both agree My Emily Emily you broke my heart happy ever after Why couldn't I see through your beauty And your funny laughter Emily you proved to me That sometimes things aren't always as they seem My Emily Emily you broke my heart happy ever after Why couldn't I see through your beauty And your funny laughter Emily you proved to me That sometimes things aren't always as they seem My Emily Sometimes things aren't always as they seem My Emily

I think it’s time that we both realize That things have changed and so have you and I It’s nothing like it used to be before You’re telling me that everything’s gone sour From the comfort of your ivory tower But I don’t want to hear it anymore And it’s been so hard To stay content With who we are And what we meant to one another It’s not what it used to be Oh, It’s all over between you and me I tried to see things from your point of view I hoped you’d do the same thing for me too But all you did was focus on yourself You knew I’ve always been the jealous kind And yet you’d still manipulate my mind You went and opened up to somebody else But it’s been so hard To be satisfied With who we are And the tears we’ve cried over one another It’s not what it used to be Oh, it’s all over between you and me And it’s been so hard To stay content With who we are And what we meant to one another It’s not what it used to be Oh, It’s all over between you and me It’s all over between you and me

Mad Abby 03:58
Mad Abby likes to run around Mad Abby you can’t tie her down And I tried so hard to get to know But I guess I’ll always be below her Nothing lost, oh but nothing gained Mad Abby has somewhere to be Mad Abby had no time for me And I wish I could say I knew her well But I could never seem to ever tell what she Thought of me she left it unexplained I went insane Over Mad Abby Mad Abby hung me out to dry Mad Abby took away my pride And I tried my best at understanding No one likes a man who’s too demanding I gave it time and slowed down my advance But Mad Abby was already gone Mad Abby went and led me on And I thought I had gained her affection Maybe she saw through my imperfection Now she wont even spare a passing glance I missed my chance With Mad Abby Now I don’t know what she’s been through And I’ll give credit when credit is due Maybe I’m too quick to criticize her But my patience is wearing thin And I’m afraid that I’m gonna give in Maybe I’m too quick to idolize her, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah And I tried so hard to get to know her And I wish she would’ve let me she her A little love and a little sympathy I’d still want to be With Mad Abby

about

A culmination of youthful angst and frustration, Long Shot is a welcome departure from Eng's feel-good nature. Despite the new maturity of the content, the songs are still catchy and upbeat as ever, which fans have come to expect from this pop rocker.
