Stop and Go
03:33
|
|||
I wanna live in a box
with rusty hinges and broken locks
dirty dishes and scattered socks
I should probably put away
I want no windows in my room
that way the flowers will never bloom
I'll sweep the trash up with a broom
into a corner
cause it's always stop and go
I'm walking fast but I'm moving slow
there are places I want to go
where you won't find me
I'll escape from the outside
cause all I want to do is hide
just push pause and then rewind
back to the beginning
I don't wanna see the sky
answer questions or wonder why
yeah sometimes I get real shy
and stop talking
I just want to be alone
where no one calls me on the phone
I'll throw some rocks and skip a stone
to keep busy
cause it's always stop and go
I'm walking fast and moving slow
there are places I want to go
where you won't find me
I'll escape from the outside
cause all I want to do is hide
just push pause and then rewind
back to the beginning

Sandy Knees
03:25
|

in a broken ship on the sea
would you like to spend a little time and float around with me
I don't know much about the cost
I can't keep track of all the little things I've lost
and I can't take you very far
but we can lay around and stare up at the stars
I lost my sail in the wind
it tore right out of my hands I won't be touching it again
now we can drift around all day
with no one around to hear the secret things we say
my compass fell overboard
now you're my map that leads my lonely heart to shore
sandy knees
swaying trees
you and me
that is all I'm wishing for
an island vast and full of green
we could swim a thousand miles and escape this dream
but we might drown if it gets too deep
our bodies like treasures at the bottom for the ocean to keep
I like it here right next to you
on our sinking boat surrounded by nothing but blue
sandy knees
swaying trees
you and me
that is all I'm wishing for

Old Things
02:53
|
|||
I'm banging my hands on the wall again
cause I'm still dreaming about a new obsession
my head's full of promises I won't be keeping
but I can't stop loving old thing
I can't stop loving old things
I'm raising my hands in the air again
cause I've been messing around with new possessions
my head's full of faithlessness wish you could set me free
but I can't stop loving old things
I can't stop loving old things

One Day
03:37
|

one day you'll want to go home
one day you'll want to be alone
choose a way and you'll get there
feel the wind blow in your hair
watch the flowers on the hill
blooming in the sun
one day you'll want to walk around
one day you won't want to be found
choose a way and you'll get there
feel the wind blow in your hair
watch the flowers on the hill
blooming in the sun
one day you'll want to say goodbye
one day you'll want to cry
choose a way and you'll get there
feel the wind blow in your hair
watch the flowers on the hill
blooming in the sun
choose a way and you'll get there
feel the wind blow in your hair
watch the flowers on the hill
blooming in the sun

I'm driving with no shoes on
the crows are telling you their stories
to me it only sounds like vowels
we like to stay at nice hotel rooms
and run away with all the towels
I'm driving with no shoes on
you drink two bottles at a time
I smoke too much when you're away
there's fighting in our conversations
let's save it for another day
I'm driving with no shoes on
I'm never clean I need you to fix me
you're always lost when I'm not there
I'm burning out on expectations
but lately I don't really care
I'm driving with no shoes on

Your Love is All I Need
03:13
|
|||
all my favorite things are at your place
my nicest shirt
my cleanest tie
your face
I used to watch you walking around
I crave your touch
I want your words
I miss your sound
I found your things laying on the floor
I read your letter on the door
guess I don't need much anymore
cause baby your love is all I need
your eyes were always bigger than mine
you could see a flame that was burning out
and you could make it shine
everything I have I would give to you
my luck my charm
and my sweetest afternoon
I found your things laying on the floor
I read your letter on the door
guess I don't need much anymore
cause baby your love is all I need

Up Against The Wall
03:33
|
|||
stumbling along
trying to keep this feeling strong
in my fantasy mind
I'm lost in my thoughts all the time
I can't do this on my own
I need you to walk me home
hold my hand so I don't fall
and push me up against the wall
lost in a bar
pushing it all a bit too far
it's all a game
and every day just feels the same
I can't do this on my own
I need you to walk me home
hold my hand so I don't fall
and push me up against the wall

If You Were Leaving
03:25
|
|||
if you were leaving
I don't know what I'd do
I might stop breathing
until my lips turn blue
I'd start running until there's
a hole in my shoe
cause I can't imagine living without you
If you were leaving
I wouldn't believe it's true
you're telling me a lie
maybe you have the flu
I would make you a home-cooked
pot of chicken stew
cause I can't imagine living without you
If you were leaving
I wouldn't find someone new
I'd lock myself in a room without a view
and I'd watch detective movies
and search for every clue
cause I can't imagine living without you

Forever and a Day
03:42
|
|||
you turn your head from side to side
too many questions on your mind
which way to go and what's the time
your friend is waiting for you in line
my feet are dragging on the ground
my hands are stuck in the lost and found
my head is sometimes in the clouds
but I'll bring it back when you're around
stay with me forever and a day
we can live like kings and queens far away
in a great big castle on a hill
with lots of little flowers on the window sill
you share everything with everyone
and won't end a fight until it's done
comb your hair and fix your eyes on the floor
hang little decorations on my door
I can tell you lots of things in a while
but I know just what to say to make you smile
follow me into the streets and in the sea
where you are is where I want to be
stay with me forever and a day
we can live like kings and queens far away
in a great big castle on a hill
with lots of little flowers on the window sill
