Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Come on baby
Hold me slowly
Let me live inside the picture
That I really wanna picture
But you’re ready
So were going
And I don’t know where we’re headed
But I know I gotta drive
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh mother
I hear you whisper
I feel you rocking me to sleep
If it’s a drug I’m in it deep
I’m overdosing
Help me sister
I can feel the water rising
But I think I know the cure
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh it’s gonna be a cold one here tonight
Ain’t no sense in leaving on the light
Hoping that you’re near
To pull me out of here
But nothing’s gonna come
And no one’s gonna save me now
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (Save me now)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I got the answer
Before the question
Now I’m walking back the riddle
To try and meet em in the middle
There’s a science
To found religion
Knowing so many have suffered
Who am I to drop the torch?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh it’s gonna be a cold one here tonight
Ain’t no sense in leaving on the light
Hoping that you’re near
To pull me out of here
But nothing’s gonna come
And no one’s gonna save me now
I’m pulling off of Highway 85
Nothing left for me to do but cry
And face all of my fears
I tucked behind these tears
Yeah it’s time to take em on
Cuz no ones gonna save me now
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (save me now)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Satellite

There's a quote that I used to remember
“Do a thing every day that'll scare you”
Guess I just like the way that it sounds
And I'm driving to work in the morning
Day dreaming ‘bout nothing important
Tell myself that I'm allowed
One hit on a lunch break
And I feel like an airplane
Tie the wind around my skin
Deep breath and I'm ok
No time in the rat race
Need the dirt to pull me in
Satellite won't you come down
Change your speed, turn the lights out
Do you wish upon the same stars
Or are you scared of falling earthbound
There's some food in the fridge if you want it
Get it yourself I'm exhausted
Taking some time to myself
Have a drink on the steps to the back door
Telling my shit to the night air
There's nobody else I can tell
Still mad 'bout the pay cut
Go fast just to stay stuck
Ain't enough to get me there
Look down at the unjust
Feels good just to look up
And imagine that you're there
Satellite won't you come down
Change your speed, turn the lights out
Do you wish upon the same stars
Are you scared of falling earthbound
Satellite won't you come down
Change your speed, turn the lights out
Do you wish upon the same stars
Are you scared of falling earthbound
Satellite won't you come down
Change your speed, turn the lights out
Do you wish upon the same stars
Are you scared of falling earthbound

What This Could Be
03:37
|

Say goodnight, another ordinary lover
Try to fight against an ordinary summer
That would lead to a good fall
If the Cubs play some good ball
And the business'll get slow
Tell me something I don't know
If I were a store and you walked by me solo
Would an open sign be hanging in the window
Or would you think that I was closed
Would you like some of my clothes
Would you wanna come inside
And let me show you a good time
I’ve been thinking I’ve been thinking about us
Calculating every second for hours
I can take a hill and make it a mountain
I can’t beat it back
But you’re the remedy without even trying
A cool pillow when my fever is rising
Tell me baby can we give it a try and
See what this could be
I'm a Sunday night away from being settled
But with a drink or two I'll wanna raise the devil
Saturday was my birthday
And my friends wanna get laid
So they threw me a whole thing
I didn't want in the first place
If I'm honest I just want someone to need me
Someone who can write me in a different story
And take me out of the ol’ loop
I wanna run to a new tune
For a somebody that's true
Can that somebody be you
I’ve been thinking I’ve been thinking about us
Calculating every second for hours
I can take a hill and make it a mountain
I can’t beat it back
But you’re the remedy without even trying
A cool pillow when my fever is rising
Tell me baby can we give it a try and
See what this could be
I’ve been thinking I’ve been thinking about us
Calculating every second for hours
I can take a hill and make it a mountain
I can’t beat it back
But you’re the remedy without even trying
A cool pillow when my fever is rising
Tell me baby can we give it a try and
See what this could be
La da da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da
What this could be

Time and Temperature

I met her at the station
The minutes started flying by
The sooner it got later
I had to make her mine
What if I said
Something to cut in line
What if I went too much too early
No I should let it be and bide my time
Even though I
I want you now
Time and temperature
The heat is rising
Time and temperature
Feel it unwinding
Something’s gonna change
Fight it with patience
Give it time and temperature
Till’ we get lightning
She’s flipping through the stations
Her feet are by the cherry wine
Slowly creeping over
To tangle up in mine
After we spent so many summer nights
Seeing the sky light up so brightly
When did you get that look that’s in your eyes
That I’ve never seen before
Time and temperature
The heat is rising
Time and temperature
Feel it unwinding
Something’s gonna change
Fight it with patience
Give it time and temperature
Till’ we get lightning
(Did you think that when you took my hand
We would make it to the other side
Did you really see a master plan
Or did you think that all we needed was some)
Time and temperature
(Did you think that when you took my hand

Feel it unwinding

Fight it with patience

Stay With Me Tonight
04:12
|

Stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight, yeah
Later in the evening
Things are winding down
You and all my feelings
Are lighting up this town
Shotgun, watching you drive
Pull up and we lock eyes
Look away tell her good night
But I'm thinking
Stay with me tonight
I can be everything you need
Something’s got me thinking
You feel the same about me
Just stay with me tonight
And we can figure out the rest
I’m holding onto now
So we can see what happens next
Stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight, yeah
Walking back to your place
Mine is on the way
Heading up the staircase
Thinking today could be the day
Leaning on the doorframe
Playing with your keychain
Wait to see what I'm gonna say
So I'll say it
Stay with me tonight
I can be everything you need
Something’s got me thinking
You feel the same about me
Just stay with me tonight
And we can figure out the rest
I’m holding onto now
So we can see what happens next
Do you know how long I've loved you
Do you know how much I've longed to say these words to you
Watching you walk away,
Killing me slowly
But I'm hoping
That you'll stay with me tonight
I can be everything you need
Something’s got me thinking
You feel the same about me
Just stay with me tonight
And we can figure out the rest
I’m holding onto now
So we can see what happens next
Just stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight
Stay with me tonight

You
03:32
|

Diamonds, moonlight
Always look right
Underneath the cover of somebody else's love
Empty, see-through
Till' I found you
Gave a meaning to the words I'd just been dreaming of
Oh the sun is down and my fire's getting low
Take a deep breath of you and I'm ok
You know me
You show me
All the ways I've been ignoring
Who I buried inside
As a way to get by
You only
Seen the parts and want the whole thing
Take it baby I can't hold it
And I’m starting tonight
For the rest of my life
With you
You know me
You show me
All the ways I've been ignoring
Who I buried inside
As a way to get by
Screens and stages
Painted faces
Stand between me and the mirror blocking line of sight
Slowly, gently
You connect me
To the someone waiting for me on the other side
Oh the sun is down and my fire's getting low
Take a deep breath of you and I'm ok
You know me
You show me
All the ways I've been ignoring
Who I buried inside
As a way to get by
You only
Seen the parts and want the whole thing
Take it baby I can't hold it
And I’m starting tonight
For the rest of my life
With you
You only
Seen the parts and want the whole thing
Take it baby I can't hold it
And I’m starting tonight
For the rest of my life
With you

Falling In Love
03:32
|
|||
Seventeen and nervous
By the firelight
Said the rain won't hurt us
Said we'll be alright
That was just the surface
I had to teach my eye
What's behind the curtain's
Where the good stuff lies
And I found it
Surrounded
By my selfish pride
I found it
Unwound it
When I closed my eyes
Falling in love
Gets easier with time
And harder to define
When you know there’s something greater than yourself
Falling in love
Is better if you try
To leave your loss behind
And honestly admit you’re never ready
For falling in love
Falling in love
When the lines get blurry
Black and white gets gray
When your guard gets heavy
And you shed that weight
When the streaks in the sky call me
To another place
And I can say it slowly
Then I know you’re waiting
And I found it
Surrounded
By my selfish pride
I found it
Unwound it
When I closed my eyes
Falling in love
Gets easier with time
And harder to define
When you know there’s something greater than yourself
Falling in love
Is better if you try
To leave your loss behind
And honestly admit you’re never ready
For falling in love
Gets easier with time
And harder to define
When you know there’s something greater than yourself
Falling in love
Is better if you try
To leave your loss behind
And honestly admit you’re never ready
For falling in love
Falling in love

Mickey and Iris
02:44

Why can’t we be like Mickey and Iris
They’re never fighting
Kissing and smiling wide
Trips to the islands
Dressed in the finest
Going out every night
Something about em, crazy exciting
I wonder if someone’s crazy about us
Just like Mickey and Iris
Classic and timeless
Stepping into the light
Shining like diamonds
Standing beside us
Smooth like the rolling tide
And then we are leaving, the sky cloaked in violet
Covered up by the ceiling, and the silence
Oh I gotta know where we go from here
Knowing that there’s someone
Loving each other better
But I love you dear
More than I can say
So why am I afraid
I know what you mean to me
I know what you mean to me
Sometimes I’m too blind to see
But I know what you mean to me
I know what you mean to me
I know what you mean to me
Sometimes I’m too blind to see
But I know what you mean to me

Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
If you aim at the moon and miss it
And the arrow ends up in the trees
And you wander off to find it
Stuck among the leaves
Then maybe you find when you get there
As you’re drinking in the breeze
That where you’re standing’s better
Than the moon could ever be
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
I loved her when I first saw her
But that don't make her real
My mermaid in the water
Was she ever really here
And then I'm off and running
Chasing something make believe
While everything I want is standing
Right in front of me
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all (got me singin’)
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
I’m talking bout everything short of a miracle
Add it up, see what you get
The only way to the mountaintop
Is step by step by step
I’m talking bout everything short of a miracle
On the way to emerald gates
It’s the journey down the yellow brick road
That makes courage, hearts, and brains
Oh my
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
I got lucky with some aces
And broken many hearts
And worn a lot of faces
And played a lot of parts
I guess that I'm still waiting
To reach the golden light
But I have made some magic
In the meantime
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
I’m talking bout everything short of a miracle
Add it up, see what you get
The only way to the mountaintop
Is step by step by step
I’m talking bout everything short of a miracle
On the way to emerald gates
It’s the journey down the yellow brick road
That makes courage, hearts, and brains
Oh my
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
Are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it, are we gonna get it all
I made it all the way to here
Using everything short of a miracle
Yeah, I made it all the way to here
And that's nothing short of a miracle

Parents
04:32

Everybody's hurting
Carrying a burden
But burdens can be blessings
I just gotta earn em
Don't let me go start a scene
Douse it all in kerosene
I wanna go getting free
Be the man I wanna be
I’m playing out a version
Where I'm a different person
But I'm counting down the minutes
Till I break and start reverting now
I'm walking down Davis Street
Dancing with my history
Somebody I've never seen
Always got a hold on me
I am always grappling
With this whole tree and apple thing
Falling far don't always mean
You left it all behind
Cuz I don't know what's happening
Deep inside my wiring
And that can be empowering
Or make me lose my mind
Parents
We've all got em
And they sure got us
Get a little older
Feel em taking over
Wear their mannerisms
Like a tattoo on your shoulder
Say goodbye to the loose cement
Ha ha those days came and went
It's what it is but then again
You never played an instrument
Then I start to worry
We're halfway through the story
How can I know all of you
If I met you when you were forty
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
Bout all those years I never knew
To really see the puzzle through
I need the piece of me that's you
And I am always grappling
With this whole tree and apple thing
Falling far don't always mean
You left it all behind
Cuz I don't know what's happening
Deep inside my wiring
And that can be empowering
Or make me lose my mind
Parents
We've all got em
And they sure got us
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Yeah, they got us good
Everybody's parents
Started off as children
Who argued with their parents
Who just had what they were given
And so it goes on down the line
Far as you can multiply
I’m made from the hands of time
My mother’s nose and father’s eyes
And I am always grappling
With this whole tree and apple thing
Falling far don't always mean
You left it all behind
Birds and bees and therapy
That penguin documentary
And that’s just one perspective
Time to see the other side
As parents
We've all got em
And they sure got us
