Roam Far
03:50
|
|||
|
My love for you comes easy
And it lingers very late
I've trouble sometimes
To find where it hides
But it always shows its face
Maybe in a deep dark canyon
Or underneath the stars
Lying in
The deep deep grass
Love roams far
Roam far
Roam far
Lying in the deep
Deep grass
Love roams far
You can count the constellations
Or the wolves as they howl
Count my love for you
If you want me to
Won't do no good anyhow
Roam far
Roam far
Count my love for you
If you want me to
Love roams far
Love is out the window
Love is in the yard
It breaks my heart
To see you fall apart
When love roams far
Roam far
Roam far
It breaks my heart
To see you fall apart
When love roams far

These Bones
03:42
|

|
There's music in these bones
Tones that they don't even know
But they can feel the rhythm
They can move to the sound
Of a lonely hymnal
They've been caged before
Tied and locked behind doors
But ever since they broke out
They've been taking on new ground
Like Finn and Hendon
They've seen the worst with the best
A storm roll in without rest
The moon light shine
So bright
For the love of a witness
There's music in these bones
Looking for new land to roam
A muse to lend a hand
If they get down again
To find a way out
They've traveled near and far
But it don't matter where they are
It's never quite as clear
Just being right here
Is a great place to start
They've seen many pass by
From the lonely earth to the night sky
Looking in every hand
Every grain of sand
For the love of a witness

Waves
05:13
|
|||
|
We've been down
And around this town forever
Falling out
Bested beat and bettered
It's all that I can do
To turn this anchor loose
I'm packing up my pride
Push off this ocean side
The water's wide
We can find it if we're looking
Wading lies
Should we ever have left Hoboken
I've seen this all before
Earnest eager oars
Let's call this city done
Let out before the sun
Now I can see the waves
For miles
They're underneath us now girl
Who can stop us now girl
All the while
Baby do you feel right
I've never seen you so bright
We can run
The best if for the taking
To hell with all the waiting
Take a hand
And run
Sail abroad
On the wild and undiscovered
Brave new world
Unfathered and unmothered
Our bearings may be flawed
Through thick and dizzy fog
But our feet will hit the ground
In swirls of sand and sound
Now I can see the waves
For miles
They're underneath us now girl
Who can stop us now girl
All the while
Baby do you feel right
I've never seen you so bright
We can run
The best if for the taking
To hell with all the waiting
Take a hand
And run
We've been down
And around this town forever
Falling out
Bested beat and bettered

Clara

Clara O Clara
The neighbors chased you all around
Dancing underneath the trees
Up with all your hopes and dreams
Till they finally
Pulled you to the ground
Clara O Clara
I heard that lonesome whistle blow
You were ironing near the kerosene
Though the thick smoke I seen
You lying there
Waiting to go
This fire's a nightmare
It's haunting me
The train that brought me here
Took everything
Cathy O Cathy
I thought by now at this point in my life
That I'd begin to go somewhere
And all my pain and all my fears
Would disappear
Into the night
Cathy O Cathy
How'd you go and disappear
Up in smoke without a trace
I sometimes think I see your face
And hear you whisper in
My ear
This fire's a nightmare
It's haunting me
The train that brought me here
Took everything

Just Say So
02:56
|
|||
|
I've tried to say only sweet words
And make you feel understood
I open the door and take your hand
I thought you would understand
I get out of bed to get you tea
So you can stay in and watch TV
You still pull away your hand
Am I still your man
Now there's room in your closet
There's space at the bar
I can carry my own luggage
Just tell me how far
You can keep that old band t-shirt
I never liked their shows
If you're wanting me to leave
Then why don't you just say so
I've stayed awake most of the night
While you slept right on through our fight
I never could rest that way
But you seem to sleep okay
The food you made don't taste the same
And I haven't seen the cat in days
You look like there's an evil plan
Am I still your man
Now there's room in your closet
There's space at the bar
I can carry my own luggage
Just tell me how far
You can keep that old band t-shirt
I never liked their shows
If you're wanting me to leave
Then why don't you just say so

Lost
03:45
|
|||
|
Since you knocked on my door
With that hammer in your hand
Stormed across my floor
Never looked back
You ran up the bills
And you begged for all my cash
This old wrench that's in my hands
Provides for all I lack
Lost
And all is gone
Lost
Inside my own home
You've been running 'round with dogs
In the yellow of the moon
My blood burns
From taking turns
And turning over you
When you lay me down to rest
And place your head upon my chest
I'm done I've learned
I won't return
I'm through
Lost
And all is gone
Lost
Inside my own home

Doesn't Matter
04:48
|
|||
|
She's playing out the part
Like nobody is watching
We stayed till after dark
The temperature was rising
What did I say to make you stay
We've been lost for hours
Have you ever felt this way
Helpless to the power
I don't care
If they ever find us
It doesn't matter to me
It doesn't matter to me
If it doesn't matter to you
We can do whatever you want to
Now no other laws apply
Nobody can touch this
And if we don't comply
We might get past the first kiss
I don't care
If they ever find us
It doesn't matter to me
It doesn't matter to me
If it doesn't matter to you
We can do whatever you want to

Please Don't Go
03:57
|
|||
|
You don't have to leave
You don't have to go
All of the bills are paid and done
Now we can go for broke
Who said it's all right to run
You'll never hurt no one
We can take it slow
But honey please don't go
I heard the screen door slam
As you stormed across the floor
Kicking up dust down the drive
Before I could say no
Who said it's alright to run
You'll never hurt no one
We can take it slow
But honey please don't go
I looked up your last name
And broke down at your door
Was I a fool for holding on
Now I'm not so sure
I can go my own way
I've got nothing to make me stay
I won't take it slow
And you can't make me go
You don't have to leave
You don't have to go
All of the bills are paid and done
Now we can go for broke
Who said it's all right to run
You'll never hurt no one
We can take it slow
But honey please don't go

This Way Again
05:52
|
|||
|
To ride alone
And be with friends
Play a song
And sing again
It won't be long
But it could be the end
I may never come
This way again
To run these hills
And breath the air
Be up all night
Still something to share
A new found friend
Just catching his breath
I may never come
This way again
To touch her hair
And feel her eyes
Be on the move
And still near her side
She leaves a light
For me to find
I may never come
This way again
To climb that wall
Still a few days left
Rest and fall
Forget whats ahead
I've seen it all
Tt's all in my head
I may never come
This way again

Anything At All
05:09
|
|||
|
We were heading out west when
When we got the message
To turn it around
And face all our questions
Across all the wide plains
And over the high range
I can hear the wind calling
Calling out our names
Even under the bright lights
I still hear the dog fights
And the sound of the thunder
I still miss those dark nights
We were headed to New York
When the call was cut short
And out on the freeway
I thought I heard you say
We can do anything
Anything at all
The wind doesn't blow here
No matter how hard I try
Just the sound of the fridge hum
I wish it was last year
When we could do anything
Anything at all
We can do anything
Anything at all
