When She Smiles 03:52
lyrics
buy track
When she smiles It’s like the rain is falling down on my head But I don’t see the clouds I feel the sun shine down on me Oh when she smiles And when she smiles It’s like a weight is being dropped on my chest But oh no I don’t mind I can bear it til the end Til it fades away (x3) Til it fades It’s as clear as a summer breeze I can’t ease my way out of love And it’s as cold as a winter night I can’t fight my way out of love When she smiles I can feel it all a’crumblin’ And now I’m free to be free I can’t be contained in these walls In these walls (x3) It’s as clear as a summer breeze I can’t ease my way out of love And it’s as cold as a winter night I can’t fight my way out of love It’s as clear as a summer breeze I can’t ease my way out of love And it’s as cold as a winter night I can’t fight my way out of love

Sitting On a Fence 02:42
lyrics

Sitting on a fence With your arms wrapped around my waist you say Could we just be friends? Take a look at the circumstances He’ll be coming home And he’s the one I know will love me Flaws and all Why should you take the chance? So I take my bags head towards the sun Hoping that I’ll be the one Somewhere out west Sitting on a bench With her head wrested on my shoulder I say Could we just be friends? Take a look at the circumstances I’ll be heading home Cause shes the one I know I’ll love her Flaws and all Yeah, I’m gonna take the chance So I take my bags head towards the sun Hopingthat I’ll be the one Somewhere out west (Bridge) So I take my bags head towards the sun Hopingthat I’ll be the one Somewhere out west

Young As I'll Ever Be 02:45
lyrics
buy track
I hit the open road So I can live and do the things that I said I’ll do it right the first time Cause second chances aren’t so easy to get And oh oh oh Time ain’t so linear to me Best not be wastin’ my time Cause I’m as young as I’ll ever be Puttin’ all my doubts aside Double up on shinin’ eyes Deep as the sea This here’s the place for me Nowhere I’d rather be than right here right now And oh oh oh Time ain’t so linear to me Best not be wastin’ my time Cause I’m as young as I’ll ever be I want it all But what’s that even connotate? Yeah Posessions crumble people fade And what remains are the memories we make Starin up at skies drowned in fireflies And goodbyes we refuse to take But I don’t think that I could ever bear The thought of losing you Best not be wastin’ my time Cause I’m as young as I’ll ever be

Bubble Gum Tongue 04:11
lyrics
buy track
Like kids in a candy store we’re searching for the flavours That will constantly insatiate We’re tangled together by our mutual affection Pulled in deeper it intoxicates Our need to fill our heads with dopamine And hearts with ever delicates That’s why I’m purposefully present In the moment Let your lips and eyes know what I meant I cannot say that you’re the only one But I’m not afraid to say that you’re the one That I need right now Cause how could I pretend I don’t wanna hold your hand And make good use of all your offering With your bubblegum tongue Indulgently vibin to the tastes that others miss When they’ve mistakenly fallen asleep We’re coming together to fulfill our deprivation But it doesn’t mean we are complete Cause I am a man who wants a true romance This aint a silly game for two But it aint versus if we’re swerving To the beat wordlessly keeping all our senses true I cannot say that you’re the only one But I’m not afraid to say that you’re the one That I need right now Cause how could I pretend I don’t wanna hold your hand And make good use of all your offering With your bubblegum tongue (solo) I cannot say that you’re the only one But I’m not afraid to say that you’re the one That I need right now Cause how could I pretend I don’t wanna hold your hand And make good use of all your offering With your bubblegum tongue

Crazy Lady Signs 02:33
lyrics
buy track
Walking the streets alone Til she found the roads were paved with gold So she wound up here instead And shes face to face with what she needed She aint got no place to go Better turn up the radio When youre stationed on the blvd where the cops drive by From Tokyo to New Orleans She lost it somewhere in between But there’s wisdom to be found In what the crazy lady signs Woke up in her narrow bed Tried to leave and just forget But she pulled me in and gave me Some simple words to liberate me I aint got no place to go Better turn up the radio When you’re stationed on the blvd where the cops drive by From Tokyo to New Orleans I lost it somewhere in between but there’s wisdom to be found in what the crazy lady signs she said find your centre now and find your gravity and you won’t rely on another human being just to be We aint got no place to go Better turn up the radio When you’re stationed in the blvd where the cops drive by From Tokyo to New Orleans We lost it somewhere in between But there’s wisdom to be found In what the crazy lady signs (x2)

You got them shinin eyes It comes as no surprise That you found the perfect situation So even though I know I’ll have to watch you go I couldn’t be prouder of the one that got away Cause that means that we’re apart Cause you aren’t doing ordinary things So I’ll keep on changing frowns to smiles On a set of new faces And when we finally lock our eyes again I won’t be staring At any ordinary girl Every time I blink Your not always right But when your wrong its fine Cause you care enough to make me wanna do What makes me a better man You’re my better half And I won’t stop your flame from burning true Cause that means that we’re apart Cause you aren’t doing ordinary things So I’ll keep on changing frowns to smiles On a set of new faces And when we finally lock our eyes again I won’t be staring At any ordinary girl Every time I blink You got them shinin’ eyes It comes as no surprise That you are The perfect situation So even though I know I’ll have to watch you go I couldn’t be prouder of the one that got away Cause that means that we’re apart cause you aren’t doing ordinary things So I’ll keep on changing frowns to smiles On a set of new faces And when we finally lock our eyes again I won’t be staring At any ordinary girl Every time I blink

Suitcase 03:20
lyrics

I’m packing up my suitcase I’m leaving here tomorrow I’m packing up my suitcase I’m leaving on the first train outta here Cause I know That where we are Is home But I know that you can’t stand the cold Oh I know I’m tying up my shoelace The only trip I need is to disappear I’m dreaming of a new place Hanami Sakura by the frontier I’m riffling through the bookcase Searching for the words used to make it real We’re sitting at a crossways And either could be strawberry fields cause I know That where we are Is home But I know That you can’t stand the cold Oh I know that where we are Is home But I know I’m packing up my suitcase I’m leaving here tomorrow I’m packing up my suitcase
