Remembering Sunday


He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Started making his way past 2 in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days
Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees
They had breakfast together
But two eggs don't last
Like the feeling of what he needs
Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs, she led him upstairs
Left him dying to get in
Forgive me, I'm trying to find
My calling, I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams And it's driving me crazy, it seems
I'm going to ask her to marry me
Even though she doesn't believe in love,
He's determined to call her bluff
Who could deny these butterflies?
They're filling his gut
Waking the neighbors, unfamiliar faces
He pleads though he tries
But he's only denied
Now he's dying to get inside
The neighbors said she moved away
Funny how it rained all day
I didn't think much of it then
But it's starting to all make sense
Oh, I can see now that all of these clouds Are following me in my desperate endeavor To find my whoever, wherever she may be

I'm not coming back (forgive me) I've done something so terrible I'm terrified to speak (I'm not calling, I'm not calling) But you'd expect that from me I'm mixed up, I'll be blunt, now the rain is just (You're driving me crazy, I'm) Washing you out of my hair and out of my mind Keeping an eye on the world, From so many thousands of feet off the ground, I'm over you now I'm at home in the clouds, and towering over your head

Well I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home now...
I guess I'll go home

anything

I see your face
In the frame on my desk
It meant alot
Now it means alot less
It's just a place
For the dust in my room to rest
I see the letters
That were written for me
They said you cared
And i totally believed
They didnt mention
That five months later you'd leave
You could've told me anything
To make me understand
I see the bracelet
You gave me way back then
Made it for me
So I'd never forget
It must have worked
'Cause I haven't forgotten you yet
I see the bed
Where we used to mess around

We'd talk for hours
Before you'd go down
That was before
You decided not to keep me around
You could've told me why you had to go
I try to tell myself just let it go
But I see your face, it's everywhere I go

running from LIONS

Get me out of this place, before I cause more damage,
a small price to pay for building houses out of matchsticks;
and when things get too hot, you've got me to blame for,
every fire that breaks out in every lover's name, so...
...Don't forget, we've got unfinished business, stories yet to unfold, tales that must be retold,
and I regret not knowing when to put an end to all this madness,
keeps me wanting,
keeps me wanting more...
Sell me out I'm yesterday's old news,
phrases left on paper,
black ink bleeding through
the pages where we made our history. Call me foolish,
I feel hopeless...
Like a dear caught in the headlights
I won't know what hit me...
Running from lions,
never felt like such a mistake
...Don't forget, we've got unfinished business,
stories yet to unfold,
tales that must be retold,
and I regret not knowing when to put an end to all this madness,
keeps me wanting,
keeps me wanting more...

so DAMN clever



Thought that I was in control
And in my mind you were mine, what did I know?
I didn't listen when they said
That you were fake, manipulating girls to bed
I thought they had you wrong
The morning you were gone
Everytime I see your face
I can see the games you play
Nobody can break hearts better
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
Turns you on
Always getting what you want
Made me believe that we would be together
Why do you have to be so damn clever?
We were over from the start
Intertwined just in time to fall apart (fall apart)
I can't believe I missed the signs
You were cold and they all told me not to try
But I thought they had you wrong
The morning you were gone
Just vanished from my life
Didn't even say goodbye
You pulled all the right strings
Saying all the right things
Now that you've gotten what you wanted you don't want it anymore
Oh Why do you have to be so damn be clever? Oh Why do you have to be so damn clever? Oh
Made me believe that we would be together
Why do you have to be so damn clever?

QUIT YOUR LIFE

I’ve been everywhere around the world and finally here tonight
You seem to be the only one to make me feel alright
I feel good when I know you’re coming down
I feel good when I know you’ll be around
So quit your life and stay with me
We’ll order in and watch TV
We’ll paint the house and wash the car
We’ll take a walk but not too far
So quit your life and stay with me
New York to Los Angeles and all the towns between
After miles and hours on the road, you’re the best I’ve seen
I feel good,
you’re the best friend that I’ve found
I feel good when I’m coming back to your town
I heard the road, it was calling my name
I walked towards the light and I ran towards the flame
I ran towards the flame
After all is said and done, I don’t mind saying again
I say it’s true that I’m in love with the places that I’ve been
So quit your life and stay with me
Stay with me

WRITE YOU A SONG

I will write you a song
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight if somebody tries hurting you
Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
I've got your loving and you've got my song
I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know
Is how to be a good man to you
Until I die that's what I'll do

TAKE ME AWAY

I know we just got here
but I think it's time to go
I didn't want to believe it but now I know
you know who just walked in
and he didn't come alone
I can't stand to see this get me home
Take me away
I'm gonna hurt somebody
take me away right now
how could he say
he wanted more you better
take me away right now
I thought he was perfect he thought I was perfect too perfect until he found someone new
now I'm stuck here watching him
I can't take this abuse
what does this girl do that I can't do?
