What You Thought
03:44
|
|||
I was waiting out of sight
Drawing pictures in the dirt
Of a secret room where flowers bloom
In the belly of the earth
You can pick as many as you like
But they all belong to her
Is it what you thought
Or is it all a blur
I was waiting patiently
In the building where you worked
Finding little bits of paper
To fold them into birds
Try to watch them fly away
But they all come down to earth
Is it what you thought
Or is it all a blur
Oh my god I thought I saw
An unclaimed truth how wrong I was
How wrong I was
So young so young
I was waiting quietly
As the colors start to turn

So Down
03:42
|
|||
Just let me let you go
Split the apple from the seed
Bone picked clean
Reveal a truth to me
Before the orange and yellow dread
A golden bed where I’ve said
I’m so down
Just let me walk alone
Early Spring and I’m the snow
I’m the sun
I am the thing that melts
Floating feeling where I fell
Then I felt your hand
And I’m so down
Yeah I’m so down
I’m so down
I’m so down
Just let me let you go
I’m so down
Just let me let you go
I’m so down
Just let me let you go
I’m so down
Just let me let you go
I’m so down
Just let me let you go
I’m so down

Hold Me Under
04:12
|
|||
I heard you name in an unexpected place
Caught me off guard, I was quite alarmed
If we meet again you could
Hold me under holy water
Hold me under holy water now
I left those woods behind my home
The place where I first heard your song
Then I saw your face, unexpected place
If we meet again, if we meet again
If we meet you can
Hold me under holy water
Hold me under holy water
Hold me under holy water
Hold me under holy water

Dumb Luck
03:59
|
|||
I said goodbye to good reason
No patience left to just ease in
No time but time to go
I just headed west without a plan
And with just one full tank it’s all up to chance
Where I might land
So it was just dumb luck
That we’d both end up
In the same small town
In the same town
Not right away but just weeks in
Did you begin to see him
That quiet thoughtful kid
He just seemed to keep to himself
And you had no idea how he might have felt
About you then
So it was just dumb luck
The boulevard was flush
From walk to walk a crowd
And it was just dumb luck
That we both looked up
Our eyes in perfect sync
So don’t blink, don’t blink

How
03:09

How can you say
You wanted the same things?
How can you say
You tried to make it right?
And how, how did you convince yourself?
You got it all wrong
Give yourself away
Risk all the pain
It’s worth it they say
And why run away
When the sun is out on a summer day?
Why would you run
From your only one? At least I thought I was
And how, how do you expect me to
Forget you now?
Give yourself away
Risk all the pain
It’s worth it they say

Again
03:25
|
|||
If I feel but an ounce of fear
I’ll turn and run away
And if I wasn’t so scared that day
You might have learned my name
But this time it’s a real one
So I hold my breath
I hold my breath
I hold my breath for you
If I wanted an enemy
They’d not be hard to find
And if I wanted your honesty
I wouldn’t try so hard to hide
But this time it’s a real one
So we don’t hold back
We don’t hold back
We don’t hold back at all
Give it all, give it all to me
Don’t ever take it back
And if I had any more to give
Well I’d give you all I had
But this time it’s a real one
So we fall in love
We fall in love
We fall in love again

It’s a feeling inside
It swells up like the tide
Hides behind pride
The truest kind of right
No hotter fire
No bird flies higher
It works around desire
But if you’re going too fast
You’ll sleep before the night
Asleep while there’s still light
Asleep before the night
Asleep while there’s still light

Feels Like Home
03:56
|
|||
Take it as it comes, one by one
Mother father son, coming undone
Coming undone, one by one
Never picked my fight, so be it
I’ll believe the tide, when I see it
When I see it swallow me
All in a row
We could go
To a place that feels like home
