Line In The Sand
04:17
|
|||
|
There was a time before you
Then there’s a line in the sand of my life
All that was gray became blue
You were the one thing I needed to find
Restlessness faded from view
I settled into who I really was
The catalyst had to be you
The cheers from afar are unanimous
There’s no life apart from with you
I’m in the prime of my life
Young and amazed that I’m here for it all
But twenty years is a long time
To spend without the other half of your soul
Don’t get me wrong, it worked out
Every left turn led me to what was right
And looking back on it all now
I see every step in a warm golden light
There’s no life apart from with you
All of the stars could dissolve
The seas could dry up and it’d still be true
This is the point of it all
Only that I would be loved by you
There’s no life apart from with you
There’s no life apart from with you
I can’t see a world without you
There’s no life apart from with you

Good Bones
03:57
|
|||
|
I’m not the same one
That you fell in love with
A lot has happened since those days
Sometimes it feels like
I’ve lived a hundred lifetimes
Sometimes it feels like yesterday
Like any old house
This has its flaws
There are secrets
Hidden in the walls
And the spirit of the past
Still walks the halls
But it still has good bones
After all
They’ll tell the story
Of our love for ages
We can pass it down the line
The little details
Might get lost in translation
The story will write itself In time
Like any old house
This has its flaws
There are secrets
Hidden in the walls
And the spirit of the past
Still walks the halls
But it still has good bones
After all
When it’s not easy
Just look all around us
We built this life all on our own
There are good things
You just have to look up
And see the way our love has grown
Like any old house
This has its flaws
There are secrets
Hidden in the walls
And the spirit of the past
Still walks the halls
But it still has good bones
After all

When I Met You
04:03
|
|||
|
I don’t know if I believe
There’s only one out there for me
I don’t know if I believe
There’s only one out there for me
That something is conspiring
For two souls to collide
I’ve bought into stranger things
Than the hand of fate and destiny
But overall it seemed a little
Hard to get behind
Honestly I can’t deny
You came along and changed my mind
Everything I once true
Faded in and out of view
When I met you
I was introduced to a piece of my own heart
The sky was blue
And the air was clear and I knew it from
The start
And it’s the truth
You’re the one for me, even though it’s not what I thought
Thank god I was wrong
Thank god I was wrong
I’ve leaned into falling stars
And horoscopes don’t seem bizarre
I’ve gotten into tarot cards
And the lines inside my hand
I don’t have a name for it
But I think something does exist
And if this was an accident
I’d bet it all again
Honestly I never knew
That luck was on my side till you
It’s all still a mystery
But I must admit that I’m intrigued
When I met you
I was introduced to a piece of my own heart
The sky was blue
And the air was clear and I knew it from
The start
And it’s the truth
You’re the one for me, even though it’s not what I thought
Thank god I was wrong
Thank god I was wrong
We were a thousand miles apart
Somehow we found each other’s hearts
It feels like I’ve loved you in
A million lifetimes that I’ve lived
I was jaded from the start
I didn’t think love could live on
Thank god I was wrong

Fog
04:29
|
|||
|
I am walking through a fog and
I can’t see where I am going
It’s a cloud hanging over my head
I take one step then another
And I think it’s getting clearer
But I’m just getting nowhere fast
When does it end
When will it all just be alright
Will we be happier in time?
Or am I just kidding myself
Is it my fault
That you don’t love me how I want?
Am I just asking for too much?
Or is it something else?
I have given all that I can
And tried harder than I should have
And it’s always been all for you
You say one thing, do another
And it feels like I know better
But the thing is I don’t want to
When does it end
When will it all just be alright
Will we be happier in time?
Or am I just kidding myself
Is it my fault
That you don’t love me how I want?
Am I just asking for too much?
Or is it something else?
Sometimes I’m so
lonely It’s like
I’m alone when I’m with you
If I’m going
To be lonely
It seems like I shouldn’t choose to
And so it ends
And someday I’ll alright
I hope I’ll be happier in time
After all, all I have is myself
It’s not my fault
That you can’t love Ime how I want
You can’t be someone that you’re not
And I can’t be with you like this

Anyway
03:24
|

|
Here lying down with you
Everything feels like a dream
That has just come true
This is as good as it seems
Doing what we do
We’re right where we need to be
It’s just me and you
Let’s waste a little time
Lost in the magic of this
With your skin on mine
With your lips right on my lips
It would be a crime
To not linger here in this bliss
It just feels too right
Why do I deserve
Something I can’t
put into words
You are not what I thought
But everything I
Could ever want
And I cannot explain
Just how it feels
to be loved this way
But I’ll try anyway
You’re not my other half
You are the whole of my heart
Future and my past
Every day we spend apart
I will not get back
You love me like it's an art
I don’t have to ask
Why do I deserve
Something I can’t
put into words
You are not what I thought
But everything I
Could ever want
And I cannot explain
Just how it feels
to be loved this way
But I’ll try, I’ll try
I’ll try anyway

Frozen In The Stars
04:14
|
|||
|
There’s a spot inside the universe
where you and I belong
circling the Milky Way
right where the stars are hung
And everybody on the
planet can look up
And see the moment
right exactly when we were us
And if it ends
you and I are frozen in the stars
I’ll look up and know exactly where you are
We can never be forgotten
You are my world
but if you need a sun and moon of your own
a galaxy or two just to be alone
I swear I won’t come looking
I sure will miss you
But I won’t have to for long
‘Cause you and I are frozen in the stars
Floating through the sea of history
with you has been a dream
I would never trade this
tiny blip for anything
I wish you every constellation
of light there is
Maybe someday we can
cross paths in an eclipse
And if it ends
you and I are frozen in the stars
I’ll look up and know exactly where you are
We can never be forgotten
You are my world
but if you need a sun and moon of your own
a galaxy or two just to be alone
I swear I won’t come looking
I sure will miss you
But I won’t have to for long
‘Cause you and I are frozen in the stars
I will always be addicted
to your gravity
You are more alive than any star
I’ve ever seen
And I will ricochet across the universe
and ask myself
When you’ve lived for a million years
What is left?
And if it ends
you and I are frozen in the stars
I’ll look up and know exactly where you are
We can never be forgotten
You are my world
but if you need a sun and moon of your own
a galaxy or two just to be alone
I swear I won’t come looking
I sure will miss you
But I won’t have to for long
‘Cause you and I are frozen in the stars

I’ve had a harder time than some
Who seem to stumble on the one
And catch the eye of everyone
When they walk into a room
I’ll admit that I have settled
Often played the second fiddle
Been knocked down and stayed a little
Longer than most would
I’m not perfect by any means
I don’t know what you see in me
But I’ll keep looking
Till i see it too
If you’ve taught me anything
It’s that the good ones never leave
And if I’ve ever been loved
It’s by you
I say things that I don’t mean
And I blame you for everything
And make the moment about me
Sometimes
More often than I’d like to say
I choose to fight not walk away
And push your limits till you break
To be right
I’m not perfect by any means
I don’t know what you see in me
But I’ll keep looking
Till i see it too
If you’ve taught me anything
It’s that the good ones never leave
And if I’ve ever been loved
It’s by you
It’s cliche but it’s the truth
The best parts of my life are you
And every once in a blue moon
I let down another wall
You hold me when I pull away
And when I think you’ll leave you stay
And you don’t love me anyway
You love me for it all
I’m not perfect by any means
I wonder what you see in me
But I’ll keep looking
Till i see it too
If you’ve taught me anything
It’s that the good ones never leave
And if I’ve ever been loved
It’s by you

Come A Little Bit My Way
03:56
|
|||
|
Give me a little bit
and I can make it through
I am leaning right into you
Don’t wanna read your mind,
I couldn’t if I tried
If you give an inch
I can give a mile
Could you
Come a little bit my way
Come a little bit my way
I’ll meet you right in the middle
If you could just lean in a little
Come a little bit my way
Could you come a little bit my way
I don’t need promises
that you cannot keep
If you let me in
it’s not a guarantee
If we don’t shake out
It’s better to be sure
Either way we lose,
so let’s even up the score
I don’t wanna ask you
for more than you’ve got
But I just have a feeling
that it’s worth a shot
If we’re gonna end up
alone either way
I’d rather have loved you
than have let you slip away
Let you slip away
Could you come a little bit my way
Come a little bit my way
I’ll meet you right in the middle
If you could just lean in a little
Come a little bit my way
Could you come a little bit my way
Would you really rather walk away
Than to lay it on the line and say
I’ll meet you right in the middle
And I’ll just leave in a little
And come a little bit my way?
Could you come a little bit my way?

Humans
03:32

Do you see the stars above
Have you ever been in love
Is there someone you’re thinking of
If so, we’re not that different after all
Have you ever made mistakes
Been so sad it’s hard to take
Felt your heart begin to break
If so, we’re not that different after all
Are you afraid that you will die?
Do you forget from time to time?
Can you see colors in the sky?
Do you miss your mother
every once in a while?
We’re all just humans, you and I
Are there dreams inside your heart?
Are you happy where you are?
Does your world feel just as dark?
If so, we’re not that different after all
What is it like from where you stand?
Are you afraid of what’s ahead?
Does it feel hard to understand?
Do you need someone to hold onto your hand?
We’re all just trying our best
And we’re all just learning the rest
And it’s not that different
We’re all just humans, you and I

How It Ends
04:11
|
|||
|
Love is a slow goodbye
Time isn’t on our side
We have no guarantees
The end comes for you and me
Love’s not a risk you take
More like a bet you make
If either way it ends
Better to go all in
That’s the beauty of this thing
that we’re all doing
No matter what the end
of everything’s a shoe-in
Since we know it
we might as well just give in
Let’s all love like we know how it ends
We’re in the in-between
Here till we’re history
One day farther from our past
One day closer to our last
Pain is a promise, kept
Something we must accept
On the other side of the coin
There’s hope and there’s light and joy
That’s the beauty of this thing
that we’re all doing
No matter what the end
of everything’s a shoe-in
Since we know it
we might as well just give in
Let’s all love like we know how it ends
We’ve read the last page first
There’s no need to rehearse
It’s not a tragedy
If you look at it like me *
That’s the beauty of this thing
that we’re all doing
No matter what the end
of everything’s a shoe in
We’re on a one way train
and we all know where it’s goin
Let’s make the most of every
precious little moment
We can’t change it
so why the hell don’t we go all in
Let’s all love like we know how it ends
