give me a minute
04:07
|

found my heart on the edge of nowhere
in the burning sand
had a soul but I lost it somewhere
it slipped through my hands
found a girl at the edge of the water
never got her name
but she said that it didn't matter
cuz it's all the same
won't you give me a minute won't you give me some time
if my heart isn't in it where do we draw the line
hanging on a promise you swore was a lie
it just takes a little time
heard the echos of lovers before
calling out my name
I don't think I can take it no more
I won't play this game
on a ship with no wind in its sail
and nowhere to go
got the feeling that I just might fail
can't let them know
won't you give me a minute won't you give me some time
if my heart isn't in it where do we draw the line
hanging on a promise you swore was a lie
it just takes a little time
time

where this is gonna go

we disappear in a crowded room
we lay in bed all afternoon
I hold you close and you look at me
if only you could see what I see
we set a course for eternity
but it sounds a little too short to me
and if the ship starts sinking and we're going down
i'll hold your head above the water while I slowly drown
we got a long night ahead of us wait and see
just what I got in store for you and me
it's been a long time coming but I think you know
just where this is gonna go
if the times start changing I want you to know
if there ever comes a day I gotta let you go
that I hold a place for you down deep inside
and it's something that I never wanna have to hide
we got a long night ahead of us wait and see
just what I got in store for you and me
it's been a long time coming but I think you know
just where this is gonna go
and when it all comes down to you and me
everybody oughta just let it be
it's been a long time coming and I think we know
just where this is gonna go
just where this is gonna go

mixed signals

couple of candles and some pink leather boots
you pick the drinks and I'll pick the tunes
I wanna talk but the point's probably moot
I don't know just what I'm gonna do
I don't know just what I'm gonna say
I didn't think things would go this way
it's getting harder almost everyday
to find a reason to try and stay
you didn't see but I was falling apart
drag me into the light or keep me in the dark
tell me something that I wanna hear
sing me a song or blow out my ears
I take you home but I don't say goodnight
something about this just don't feel right
did the fire stop burning inside
where's the spark that was in your eyes
where's the touch that would keep me awake
that would help me ease all my mistakes
did I destroy what I helped create
is there still time or tell me is it too late
you didn't see but I was falling apart
drag me into the light or keep me in the dark
tell me something that I wanna hear
sing me a song or blow out my ears
I didn't mean what I didn't say
move me along or get out of my way
you didn't see but I was falling apart
believe it or not I still got a heart

caught between the spaces
of who we are and who we wanna be
I can almost taste it
the sweet success calling you and me
you know we can't escape it
no need to erase it
maybe you can face it here with me
you can't fix it once you break it
maybe you can shake it
sit around and hope someday you'll see
I feel the fire burning
up our dreams and roaring in the wind
I'll always be yearning
to feel that way that we felt back then
you know we can't escape it
no need to erase it
maybe you can face it here with me
you can't fix it once you break it
maybe you can shake it
sit around and hope someday you'll see
you know we can't escape it
no need to erase it
maybe you can face it here with me
you can't fix it once you break it
maybe you can shake it
sit around and hope someday you'll see

home
03:12
|

I've traveled cross the country
for a place to call my own
but I always find myself
thinking of my home
it's a place where I can rest
and ease my worried mind
with people that I know
where I can take my time
I don't need a mansion
or a fancy place in rome
where I was born and raised
I'm not afraid to say that's my home
I know every street
every building from the brick
if I'm away too long
I start feeling sick
my parents and my friends
all the little things we got
they mean more to me
than I ever thought
I don't need a condo
and you can keep your luxury
I got all I need
and that's good enough for me
and I don't need a mansion
or a fancy place in rome
where I was born and raised
I'm not afraid to say that's my home
I don't need a condo
and you can keep your luxury
I got all I need
and that's good enough for me
and I don't need a mansion
or a fancy place in rome
where I was born and raised
I'm not afraid to say that's my home

miss you most
03:00
|

I'll always remember you
like no-one else before
if you still know my name
I'm not really sure
but I still remember you
and all the times we shared
how many more we could've had
if I was still there
and I got a lot of people I may never see again
coworkers and some neighbors
family and some friends
I know what I don't write
and I know that I don't call
but believe me when I say
that I miss you most of all
the years they came and went
but I wish that they'd come back
living in the good times
really was all that
tell me how's your mom
is she doing well
did your brother love or hate me
I could never tell
and I got a lot of people I may never see again
coworkers and some neighbors
family and some friends
I know what I don't write
and I know that I don't call
but believe me when I say
that I miss you most of all
and I got a lot of people I may never see again
coworkers and some neighbors
family and some friends
I know what I don't write
and I know that I don't call
but believe me when I say
that I miss you most of all

she's gone away
04:31
|

I was caught in-between my head and my heart
and I couldn't tell you who won
I knew that I wanted her love from the start
but now i'm afraid that she's gone
she left Monday morning, didn't say a word
I couldn't tell her goodbye
she left for the city, that's what I heard
and I'll never understand why
but she's gone away
gone on the wind
I had to stay
I couldn't give in
she's gone for good
what can I say?
she's gone away
I should have told her how I really felt
but it's far too late for that now
so I sit around feeling sorry for myself
can't remember when I last went out
I've seen the bottom of every bottle that I own
it's not the best view around
no matter what I just can't let her go
she don't know she's weighing me down
since she's gone away
gone on the wind
I had to stay
I couldn't give in
she's gone for good
what can I say?
she's gone away
yeah she's gone away
gone on the wind
I had to stay
I couldn't give in
she's gone for good
what can I say?
she's gone away
