Evergreen

Everytime I see you walking around, walking around, you know
You look so good to me
If you let me then I will provide, I will provide for you
You know your all I need
I'm just sitting around watching it go, watching it go on and
I'm loving everything
I can see you girl, your watching me fall, watching me fall more and
I see the love you bring
--------------------
And I'm standing in the morning light
The clouds have risen out of sight
And all I need is standing here
You're evergreen
--------------------
Please believe me when I say that I've found, say that I've found my love
You look so good to me
I'm just waiting for you to arrive, you to arrive home now
You know your all I need
And I'm just wondering why it can't always be this easy
'Cause I believe in time I'll love you more and you know its all for you
--------------------
And I'm standing in the morning light
The clouds have risen out of sight
And all I need is standing here
You're evergreen
--------------------
And if I fall
And if I fall for you
And if I fall
If I need a little time to show you how

Comfort Zone

Was happiness just a little unfair?
I know I treated you too well
I sorry I just can't pretend
I wasn't too damn good for you
But I'm so scared I finished last place
Played my cards and lost the race
I'm on my own again
--------------------
So now I'm saying
Here I go, I'm going nowhere,
All alone, misunderstood
I'm not gonna waste my time here
Even though I saw it coming,
I don't know where I belong
I've waited for too long
So I'll go far away
Not here to stay
--------------------
Give me a reason for me to feel safe
I thought I had much more than this
Shoot an arrow through my side
A broken heart is not the same
But this is something I didn't expect
Solid ground is now a wreck
I'm on my own again
--------------------
So now I'm singing
Here I go, I'm going nowhere,
All alone, misunderstood
I'm not gonna waste my time here
Even though I saw it coming,
I don't know where I belong
I've waited for too long
So I'll go far away
Not here to stay

Train of Thought
04:35
|

Come into my arms
And I'll tell you of the life that we never had
Those summer weeks were short
But they were long enough, and now I'm feeling pretty bad
I saw you in that summer dress
The mood was right and now it's time that I confess
That I have always wanted more
I can't contain the love that I have long suppressed
What we had was real
But we didn't have the time or place to play it out
I know that I'm the one to blame
Believe me darling, I am sorry now
And after time I've come to see
I want the life that you described so beautifully
We'd raise our children by the trees
I'd sing them songs and you would read them poetry
--------------------
So should I be listening to my heart, or my mind?
I'd listen to them both, but they just can't decide
I fall because my train of thought doesn't run on tracks
I stumble
'Cause if I had a brain I would figure this one out
If I had a heart I would let it lead the way
And if I had some courage I would say that all of this is you
--------------------
Come into my arms
And I'll tell you of the love that I felt that day
We had found a place to rest
We settled at that secret place you hid away
I looked at you, your cheeks went red
The grass was cool, our future hanging by a thread
A friendship based on things unsaid
And now I think I'll sing them to you instead
But now when you come over
I don't feel the love from you that I felt before
I know that you've moved on
But still selfishly my heart years for more
It pains me to live in regret,
I can't go on feeling like we're overdue
But elephants, they don't forget
And darling, I'm a dumbo through and through
--------------------
So should I be listening to my heart, or my mind?
I'd listen to them both, but they just can't decide
I fall because my train of thought doesn't run on tracks
I stumble
'Cause if I had a brain I would figure this one out
If I had a heart I would let it lead the way
And if I had some courage I would say that all of this is you

Angel

I can see an angel floating way up high
Telling me about the day that I will die
She comes closer to me, brings me to my time
What will happen to me when I close my eyes?
Time is going faster up here in the sky
Memories are fading as the years go by
Now I'm old and shaking, you are by my side
What will happen to me when I close my eyes?
--------------------
And if I have to die someday
I'll tell you now
Of all the times that I've spent in the world,
I'm glad that I've spent them with you
--------------------
We are all just people born into our lives
Brain inside a body, programmed to survive
I can't sleep for hours, keeps me up at night
What will happen to me when I close my eyes?
--------------------
And if I have to die someday
I'll tell you now
Of all the times that I've spent in the world,
I'm glad that I've spent them with you

Running From Answers
05:04
|

Ever wonder why I keep asking you
For fairy tails to once upon
It seems the only way I can hide my tired eyes
If we don't agree when my heart is due
You know you've already won
When I could sit for hours and drift into the sky
----------------
Even though I'll wait for you tonight
If heaven holds a place for me inside
Cause I've been running down the angels that fall apart
New ending becoming the same old start
And it's like running from answers
And all I see is you, oh it's you
I can hardly breathe when you take away
What made me believe in the words I say
And it's like running from answers
And all I see is you, oh it's you
--------------------
Nights with you have shortened and that's no lie
Soon they will have been and gone
I'm scared of starting over, to start a brand new day
Maybe I was there just to fill in time
But you can find a better one
I'll wait until the sunrise to wish it all away
--------------------
Even though I'll wait for you tonight
If heaven holds a place for me inside
Cause I've been running down the angels that fall apart
New ending becoming the same old start
And it's like running from answers
And all I see is you, oh it's you
