Look both ways, You're crossing blind
I'll hold your hand, as you let go mine
I won't blink, you'll disappear
just to think, this minute's been a year
Life will fade, these moments ticking by, like seasons fade
try capturing inside, the love we made
cuz the love we made, it won't fade
I wiped your tears, I held back mine
we fought our fears, with laughter and time
I carried in, you'll carry out
our brightest days, were never in doubt
Life will fade, these moments ticking by like seasons fade
try capturing inside the love we made
cuz the love we made, it won't fade

Are you alone in bed tonight, as I'm scrolling through this year of lies
Are you like me, and miss the fights, why don't you find me
Cuz we could make believe we never met
like we haven't burned these bridges yet
is there a chance I'm in your head, and you still need me
Cuz I'm gonna drive through, this city just to find you
pass the speed limits, drive through
to make this old love new
I'm afraid we're running out of time, I haven't even crossed the county line
if I get a chance to make you mine, will you still want me
I passed our coffee shop just south of Fourth
fixed my hair outside our corner store
my heart is pounding now outside your door
I hope you'll love me
Cuz I'm gonna drive through, this city just to find you
pass the speed limits, drive through
to make this old love new

Necklace

I will wear your necklace, let your love surround me
I'll see you in sunlight, and feel you through the breeze
I will plant your flowers, I will pour your coffee
Fill a book with pictures where you're smiling at me
Turning pages, try to fill in these
empty spaces of time
walking paces, you once walked with mine
turning pages
I will tell your stories, they will hear your laughter
I will send your letters, just to keep you near
Trying to remember, everything you told me
I'll look for signs, you'll show me
I'll listen, I'll hear
Turning pages, try to fill in these
empty spaces of time
walking paces, you once walked with mine
turning pages
Turning pages, I see through your eyes
your love, guides me to see
your love guides me, and I still believe
you are holding me
so I will wear your necklace, let your love surround me
your hand upon my forehead
smiling at me

Off the Ground

I find myself walking alone, walking next to you
and I find myself sleeping alone, when I lay with you
and I find myself crying more than I laugh with you
so I'll write another song, and you'll right another wrong
were screaming but there ain't no sound
when did we become, so comfortable with numb
can you get us off the ground
the weeds grew in where flowers should be, on your path to me
and the walls caved in and you couldn't breathe, in your room with me
then our hearts went blind and we couldn't see, that we were meant to be
so I'll write another song, you'll right another wrong
were screaming but there ain't no sound
when did we become, so comfortable with numb
can you get us off the ground
Long nights, we knew
we can't, break through
so I'll write another song, and you'll right another wrong
were screaming but there ain't no sound
when did we become, so comfortable with numb
can you get us off the ground

One Sip Away
03:22

At the Village on Sunset in our old home town
sits a glass of tequila that I can't put down
and every night I sit wondering, if you'll come around
but again I leave lonely, when they call last round
So if you find yourself thinking, that you should be mine
or if the lyrics to our song, keep filling your mind
well you could find me, yeah I'll be, just one sip away
from a lifetime of memories I can't drink away
There was champagne and roses, and Lyle on the mic
sang "Nobody like my Baby" in my dreams last night
but then I woke to, there's no you, and no rose in sight
but that champagne's calling my name so I'll be alright
So if you find yourself thinking, that you should be mine
or if the lyrics to our song, keep filling your mind
well you could find me, yeah I'll be, just one sip away
from this lifetime of memories I can't drink away
Now there's a shot glass, a lime, and there's salt on the rim
was I crazy to think that, you could be him
That I would see you, and run to, and hold you today
But this lifetime of memories, I can't drink away

Always
02:18

Said you'd come one day, quiet always reigns on a Friday
Like sun always blinds on the highway
Always fall asleep with my whiskey, always have to wake with my coffee
Hang on to words that you say, Hang on to life stole away
Clinging to ends that have frayed, stole away
Praying you'll come home soon , dinner's always cold here without you
Always a vice I can run to, it's so wrong
I'll hold on, till I'm gone
Hang on to words that you say, Hang on to life stole away
Clinging to ends that have frayed, stole away
Always dreamed of it one way, of it one day, love gave us one day
Always wondering what if I had known
Could have saved you somehow, not always finding ways to calm down
Could I have made more normal these days...
Always rains on a good day, Always wrong on a one way
Did you say you'd come one day

Vanishing

I could reach to you, but I'd cut my hand
On this glass house where we threw stones
I'd guess you don't understand
The rain came and the smoke cleared, no more screaming was allowed
But to the lives we've shattered, the words won't matter anyhow
There's a million lights just beyond the broken pane trying to shine again, I know
But the darkness fights, and the sadness has me drunk again, vanishing in the end alone
I could breathe again, but I don't know how
I'm on my knees here, I'm going deeper, I guess I need ya... But it's all over now
There's a million lights, just beyond this broken pane, trying to shine again, I know
But the darkness fights and the sadness has me drunk again, vanishing in the end ... alone
There's no more lights, when I look around to see, where you used to dance with me there's darkness, laugh with me there's darkness
I wish that we could dance again...
I could reach to you... but I'd cut my hand
On this glass house where we threw stones... I'd guess you don't understand

Runaway

We found love, before the blue, before our eyes fell down
We both could be the fantasy... that now you think you've found
Runaway, with me tonight
Runaway, It'll be alright
Broken hearts, hurts like hell to breath, you do so leisurely
Runaway
Awkward silence, Bitten tongues, if you only knew
Every breath inside my lungs, I would give to you
Runaway, with me tonight
Runaway, It'll be alright
Broken hearts, hurts like hell to breath, you do so leisurely
Runaway.. Where nobody else can touch us, the world revolves around us
Runaway and see me for me
Runaway.....Runaway
Broken hearts, hurts like hell to breathe
You do so leisurely
Runaway

One of Those Nights

So you walk away from me
You said you needed to be free, but honestly, I can see
Her hands are all over you, so maybe you should tell the truth cuz
Honestly, Honestly
Cuz it looks like one of those nights, you could go or you could stay
When I hold on to one of those nights, when I know things will be okay
I'm losing it under this moon, the morning can't come too soon, cuz honestly
I can't sleep
There's never a good reason why, we lost our way and we can't try but
honestly, honesty
Cuz it looks like one of those nights, you could go or you could stay
When I hold on to one of those nights, when I know things will be okay
so your walking back to me, she said she needed to be free but
honestly, honestly

Song for Sarah

You kissed me, and time stood still
You missed me, when stars we chose so distant
Drew us apart, I said listen
These miles between us seem so far
And I'm half of me, with half your heart
We waited and time crawled by, love changing
But no goodbyes
On water, you took my hand un-faltered
You said, So these miles between don't seem so far
And I'm half of me with half your heart
Hearts racing, We walked in step now facing
This world as one
Our story, has just begun, They told me
So these miles between could never part
This love that binds these halves of hearts
These miles between us seem so far
And I'm half of me, with half your heart

How I Found You
03:15

|

I watch our life in photographs, the stories they have told
Our life's adventures, captured moments
They're worth their weight in gold
I'll place each one in perfect order, for when you need to hold
Just let our love unfold
Careful with my heart in pieces, that is how I found you
Grateful for so many reasons, that is how I leave you
For every moment spent in sorrow, a million more in love
No matter how much time had passed we never tired of
Our morning coffee, telling stories we both had heard before
Forever I want more...
Careful with my heart in pieces, that is how I found you
Grateful for so many reasons, that is how I leave you
For every chapter we had found connections to the sea
And its there amongst the rocks and treasures you will still feel me
Take them there and tell our stories
Sign the bench like we did for these
Days that seem so long, soon they will be gone
Careful with my heart in pieces, that is how I found you
Grateful for so many reasons, that is how I leave you
