wistfully

slowly
gently
take me upstairs
sunlight
window
i know
you're there
and i'm there too
i'd like you by my side always
i want you like school kids want saturdays
don't need some foolish thing
like a diamond ring
or what small words might bring
to define
for now you're mine
calmly
quietly
came to be
you and me
moonlight
shadow
i know
wistfully
we both want to be free
i'd like you by my side always
i need you like springtime needs rainy days
don't need some foolish thing
like a diamond ring
or what small words might bring
to define
for now you're mine
and that's fine
we'll leave it behind
if that's what we find
is right at the time
don't know
can't say
and that's
okay

wanderer

small child
where are you?
in some distant land
lost in endless blue
now you can sleep
now you can dream
now you don't see
how you'll change
old friend
why wont you
come back to this land?
leave the endless blue
now you don't sleep
now you don't dream
now you don't see
how you'll change
wanderer
how can you
travel through this land?
vast and endless youth
now on my own
now skin and bone
now i can see
how i've changed
small child where are you?

one thing
05:38
|
|||
only one thing left for
me to tell you
what for?
fearing nothing matters at all
observing cracks in the paint on the wall
i can't say
why this yellow paint
turned to gray
lonely breathing longs for
familiar feeling
what for?
i would have let you come into my room
but you decided different
and closed the door too soon
i can't say
if the songs i play
would make you stay
i wanted you to call for me
but you'd rather call me out
now we've fallen
rapidly
vapidly
commiserating
on webs we weave
and traps we leave
and all the things that we believed
closely leaving faults for
you to figure out more
i would try to whisper in your ear
but you never heard the words very clear
i can't say
if i really meant
to run away
i wanted you to call for me
but you'd rather call me out
now we've fallen
rapidly
vapidly
commiserating
on webs we weave
and traps we leave
and all the things that we believed

honestly
05:11
|
|||
all i wanted was to read your mind
so i could skip a couple lines
and get to what you really felt inside
but things got lost
i never tried
to understand the view
of a man who's losing too
a woman's only half her words
and half what she decides to do
and honestly
i never thought of you
i never thought i'd do this
but life keeps surprising me
and honestly
i've learned to let it leave
my consciousness for good reason
there's always a good reason
all i wanted was to find a way
to make it better
for you to feel okay
but i never knew the words to say
so silence stayed - became our great mistake
i let you down
then i heard the strangest sound
of a woman who is letting go
of all the things that made her drown
and honestly
i never thought of you
i never thought i'd do this
but life keeps surprising me
and honestly
i've learned to let it leave
my consciousness for good reason
there's always a good reason

earth and sky
04:16
|

how long will i love you before it's gone?
how much will i give you until it's wrong for me?
i tried to fight the urge to leave
but then i followed my feat
how long will you love her until it's gone?
how much will you give her until it's wrong for you?
i tried to do what ten women could do
but then i realized my youth
you watched me pass you by
all i wanted was for you try
you called to ask me why
and i said baby you are the earth
but i needed the sky
now what can i tell you that you don't know?
now what can i say to those who come and go?
no longer will i be the woman to see
more for this man than for me
you watched me pass you by
all i wanted was for you try
you called to ask me why
and i said baby you are the earth
but i needed the sky

tell me now
05:27
|
|||
tell me now
did i grow up
into what you want?
i can't live
another day
with what i'm not
oh, the lights are blinding
oh, is our love binding?
oh, you know how i lose sleep
oh, you know the secrets i keep
tell me is it easy
to lose sight of what you've seen?
tell me now
is it time
to face the sun?
i can't live
another day
with what i've done
oh, the lights are blinding
oh, is our love binding?
oh, you know how i lose sleep
oh, you know the secrets i keep
tell me is it easy
to lose sight of what you've seen?
i know
i know
i know that it's time
i know
that you
will never be mine
i know
that you
didn't read the signs
can't you
see that
i would've always tried
i know
i know
i know
