Breezy hair and sea deep eyes
Picturesque of the perfect child
The perfect child...
Cute laugh and a funny sneeze
Brings me down to my knees
To my knees...
And I want to be
And I want to see
And I want to do
Anything that brings me closer to you
And I want to know
And I want to grow
And I want to feel
That we can, we can be real.
She turns a head with a steady hand
How can you sit when she makes you stand?
Makes you stand...
And the sun rises in the east
Sets in the west and makes its peace
Just like any other girl would do
But there’s something about you.
And I want to be
And I want to see
And I want to do
Anything that brings me closer to you
And I want to know
And I want to grow
And I want to feel
That we can, we can be real.
Anytime you walk my way
Every time I fail to say
Anytime you pass my eye
Every time there’s no rep--
And I want to be
And I want to see
And I want to do
Anything that brings me closer to you
And I want to know
And I want to grow
And I want to feel
That we can, we can be real.
Oh this girl when she looks at you
She makes the worst band play in tune
Play in tune...
Makes a bad singer write a song
Hoping she would turn it on
Hoping one day she’d come and stay
With me
Won’t you stay with me
Wont you stay with me
Wont you stay with me
Wont you stay with me
Wont you stay with me
Turn it up turn it down let it flow
Let the music capture my soul
Turn it up turn it down let it flow
Let the music capture my soul

Take your time,
you'll find your way.
Talk to her,
that's what they say.
Never mind that's what it costs free your soul and heal her heart.
You've gotta start
And you know
Every heartbreak takes it's toll
You've gotta start
But the answer
Is waiting for your part
Call her name
Ain't so hard
Maybe then you'll take her
Out to where they're dancing
And singing in the park
Call her name
Make your start
Maybe someday you will know
What lovers feel like
Singing locker songs into the dark
Everyday
After school
Singing locker
Songs to you
And I wonder can you hear me or are you just too damn cool.
You've gotta start
It ain't easy
Gotta open up your heart
You've gotta start
And one day
You'll play a bigger part
Call her name
Ain't so hard
Maybe then you'll take her
Out to where they're dancing
And singing in the park
Call her name
Make your start
Maybe someday you will know
What lovers feel like
Singing locker songs into the dark
Call her name
Then you'll know
How she feels like when she goes
To touch her toes and rub her nose
Up on yours with her eyes closed
Call her name
Then she'll say
How she loves you every day
And all her favorite games to play
And she'll never go away
Call her name
Ain't so hard
Maybe then you'll take her
Out to where they're dancing
And singing in the park
Call her name
Make your start
Maybe someday you will know
What lovers feel like
Singing locker songs into the dark

Tired eyes
Squint between the paper's fretted lines
Waiting for inspiration
And trapped between endless possibilities
Where will it be?
What will it mean?
You're spontaneous
You can't wait for just a minute
Cuz you have to go today
Singin
Oh come with me and I'll take you to the perfect place
Don't know where it is but I know it will never change
Loving eyes
Months by you're looking at your prize
Happy and so soulful
Your boat's not lonely on a stormy sea
So much for me
Moving to we
You've lost care, and now
You can't bare to go without it
Holding up all of the pieces
Singin
Oh come with me and I'll take you to the perfect place
Don't know where it is but I know it will never change
When I'm lonely, it will occupy my worried mind
When I'm lonely, I will meet you there another time.
Oh come with me and I'll take you to the perfect place
Don't know where it is but I know it will never change
When I'm lonely, it will occupy my worried mind
When I'm lonely, I will meet you there another time.
Oh come with me and I'll take you to the perfect place
Don't know where it is but I know it will never change
When I'm lonely, it will occupy my worried mind
When I'm lonely, I will meet you there another time.

Im waiting
Things seem like such a drag
Can't keep searching for the love we used to have
It's like half the year's just one long, rainy day.
Hey
I ain't gonna waste my time away
I ain't gonna sit at home waiting for the summer baby
Waiting for you
Waiting
Now our lives are not the same
I can't take this another for single day
And I'm waiting for the time to come to you and say
Hey
I ain't gonna waist my time away
I aint gonna sit at home waiting for the summer baby
Waiting for you...
Waiting for the summer to carry me off
Waiting for that time when we're lying by ourselves
Waiting for the time and place where dreams we wanna make
Come true
I love you
Don't leave me broken battered lonely and blue
Hey hey
Ho ho
I can't wait
No More.
Waiting for the season where time just flies
But never letting you fly far from my mind
Cuz here's where you are and where you'll away stay
With me
I love you
Don't leave me broken battered lonely and blue
Hey hey
Ho ho
I can't wait
No More.
Waiting for the season of just you and me
Walking on the beach and singing songs so wildly
No cares on our minds and nothing bad we can say.
I love you
Don't leave me broken battered lonely and blue
Hey hey
Ho ho
I can't wait
No More.

Pick your head up kid you don't know nothing
Wipe your face now don't shed tears lightly
Hold together everyone's watching and you don't want to be alone
Lady love leaves her clothes by the night stand
She's found her place in home of a new man
Don't you know you can try so hard but now she'll never ever miss you and she'll have you keep singing
Oh I just want to be there again
No I don't need another friend
Who are you? Who am I? What are we now?
What takes time? What takes tears? What have we found?
Why lose that place in the book of your life that you may never find again
It's bitter cold in the world that you're leaving
Can't wait for summer all those pleas have no meaning
I've no more songs to sing save just this one and all I'm singing is
Oh I just want to be there again
No I don't need another friend
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh I just want you again
Oh I just want to be there again
No I don't need another friend
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh I don't want you again
Lady love leaves her clothes by the night stand
She's found her place in home of a new man
Don't you know you can try so hard but now she'll never ever miss you and she'll have you keep singing
It's bitter cold in the world that you're leaving
Can't wait for summer all those pleas have no meaning
I've no more songs to sing save just this one and all I'm singing is

See
Look at everything you've done for me
Is exactly what they think you've got to say
When your fortune's been picked up
And gone away
It's perfect night when you wake up
You're in a random place and you're in luck
Everybody's here, but no one's is sight
And everything that's wrong becomes right
It's a silly game that you try to play
Pick your way
See
Look at all shit you've done to me
Is exactly what you really want to say
But a grudge won't pick you up
And help you anyway
It's a normal night now you wake up
In a random place oh and in luck
Everybody's here, but no one's is sight
And everything that's wrong becomes right
It's a silly game that you try to play
Pick your way
Flyin' high in subway cars
Drunk but still too young for bars
Play your luck with wasted chances
Screw those fuckin high school dances
Remember when you pledged yourself
To loving her and no one else
Think of all your wasted work
In under aged fuckin' New York

Spinning off the walls
Drunk at concert halls
Hey man he fell so far
Oh why'd he fall so hard
Twinkle in his eyes
Shining thirty-five
You know he'll try to fly
But never be that guy
Wasting all his time
Workin on his rhyme
It's not a shock to see
No
It's not a mystery
No matter what he says
No matter what he does
You'll never find him
singing
Oh baby come and meet me out
After the show we're gonna twist and shout
Oh mama they can't wait to hear me
Expectations
Gotta let them fly
Man he's a real nice guy
In someone else's eye
If all else fails
Gotta keep him on the rails
We gotta keep him
thinking
Late one night
In the light
Late one night
Out of sight
Singin
Oh baby come and meet me out
After the show we're gonna twist and shout
Oh mama they can't wait to hear me

Don't Get Caught
06:16
|
|||
|
The smoke dissipates like mist in the summer sky
I feel the heat and
Is it too late?
Is it worth a try?
They tell me don’t get caught
If you live long enough you’ll be the wiser for it
That's just a load of bullshit
It just means you’re old and alone with
Nothing but your thoughts
Don’t get caught
Isn’t it fun to be young but we’ll just forget
It's the last time our first time will be something besides the beginning
It’s just the beginning of the end
Crash on your couch
Who has time for beds?
I’ll be out in the morning
I map out the lines on your delicate hands
Each crevice a mystery
Lets take our shoes off and stick our toes in the sand
Don’t get caught in it
It's the last time our first time will be something besides the beginning
It’s just the beginning of the end
If I see you tonight
Will it all be in my head?
I won’t get caught
I’m all out of liquid love
Just reach to the sky and
Fill it right back up
No I won’t get caught ...
Why would I get caught up in...
Anything but myself
You’re better in love then...
Cause I can only think of
Somebody else
I don’t know when it started
I don’t know when it started
I’ll just say goodbye
I won't say farewell
I’m saying goodbye
I’ll see you again
This isn’t farewell
Because I am caught up in you
I’ll see you again
Because I am caught up in you
Because I am caught--

Been So Long
04:16
|

|
Out windows
The whole world feels so out of touch
You try to grab it
But never seem to get enough
Of that life time
They promised you when you were a kid
And those dreams
That now stay hidden under your bed
Oh
Sometimes
It's hard to look at what you've become
How every move you make
Is movin under the gun
How all your friends and enemies
Live satisfied lives
While it's a constant struggle
Just to stay in your mind
Singin
Can't you see that I am meant to be
Just another rare commodity
Keep your prayers and keep your worried nights
It's been so long since my life's been right
Late nights
You struggle just to stay awake
Cuz all your earthly treasures
Lie in some far off place
While she's in your mind, she takes your time, to do something else
And the only hope you have
Is to be someone your self
Can't you see that I am meant to be
Just another rare commodity
Keep your prayers and keep your worried nights
It's been so long since my life's been right
(Repeat all verses with chorus sung over them after solo)

Nobody Home
03:58
|

I've got a little black book with my poems in
I've got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in
When I'm a good dog they sometimes throw me a bone in
I got elastic bands keeping my shoes on
Got those swollen hand blues.
Got thirteen channels of shit on the T.V. to choose from
I've got electric light
And I've got second sight
I've got amazing powers of observation
And that is how I know
When I try to get through
On the telephone to you
There'll be nobody home
I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm
And I've got the inevitable pinhole burns
All down the front of my favourite satin shirt
I've got nicotine stains on my fingers
I've got a silver spoon on a chain
I've got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains
I've got wild staring eyes
I've got a strong urge to fly
But I've got nowhere to fly to
Ooooh Babe when I pick up the phone
There's still nobody home
I've got a pair of Gohills boots
And I've got fading roots.
I even wrote my own part of this verse in a cover song
It’s things like this
That let me leave my mark
Even when the band has gone and got their own start.
That is why
When I run and tell you I’m gone
There’ll be nobody home.
