Beautiful Life
04:10
|

'm hanging on a wire
And I keep looking at the ground
Wondering if I let go
How long would it be until I hit the ground
I'm dancing in a fire
And I keep waiting for the burn
Learning how to let go
While I'm learning how to hurt
In this beautiful life
I'm stuck in the crosshairs of wrong and right
In this beautiful day
I'm learning that this way is the hard way
I went wading in the water
And I got in over my head
I don't know if I should try and swim
Or maybe I should just drift away instead
And there's no beauty in the struggle
Or will it all be worth it in the end
Or am I just lost in this confusion that keeps going on
Inside my head
In this beautiful life
I'm stuck in the crosshairs of wrong and right
In this beautiful day
I'm learning that this way is the hard way
Oh, and I keep waiting in paradise
How do you know when it's time to try and say good-bye
How do you know? How do you know when it's right
Or do you just jump in the water
And hope it works out this time

Sweet Nothings
04:28
|

There's a man in my bed
Resting his pretty little head
While he dreams, I sing
Sweet Nothings
With the clouds rolling by
I think "oh, what a wonderful life"
If you take, take the time
It's easy to recognize
So if you're feeling low
I know this place we can go
And it would be so nice
With you beside, beside me
So sway, sway with me
As we lay between these two trees
And we'll drift, drift away
To the melodies I play
So, if youre feeling low
I know this place we can go
And it would be so nice
With you beside, beside me
so if you're feeling low
I know this place we can go
And it would be so nice
With you beside, beside me

On The Floor
03:23
|
|||
I'm laying on the ground
Watching the ceiling fan spin round
And all I feel, is written across my face
I'm listening to the sound
Of clock hands ticking round
To the sound of this song "My Fate"
I never knew all the things that we could do
And you never said anything that was in your head
Now here we are a thousand miles apart
And I'm on the floor wanting something more
Yes, I'm on the floor wanting something more
It's the same old sentiment
A feeling of lament
I hum too little always a bit too late
So whats a girl to do
When everything's so damned confused
And the last thing you want
Is to feel any pain
I never knew all the things that we could do
And you never said anything that was in your head
Now here we are a thousand miles apart
And I'm on the floor wanting something more
Yes, I'm on the floor wanting something more
But I'm dropping a line
Call me anytime
Yeah I'm dropping a line
To your heart from mine
I never knew all the things that we could do
And you never said anything that was in your head
Now here we are a thousand miles apart
And I'm on the floor wanting something more
Yes, I'm on the floor wanting something more

Good Grief
03:32
|
|||
Death is at my door
And oh, He's been through here before
He'll shake your hand before you understand
That death is forever more
They say that he can bring you peace
I'm afraid I don't know what you mean
When he came along, he went off like a bomb
And took a little part of me
Good grief, you see, is full of bitter irony
And goodness is weak, when your heart is full of grief
The preacher spoke some words
I'm afraid they couldn't quench the hurt
We sang a hymn and said goodbye to him
And packed him up in a hearse
Good grief, you see, is full of bitter irony
And goodness is weak, when your heart is full of grief
Tonight we lay him down to sleep
In his final resting place he'll be
Good grief, you see, is full of bitter irony
And goodness is weak, when your heart is full of grief

On the Brink
02:47
|
|||
I'm standing on the brink
of something shallow or something deep
I can't make up my mind
Which of these two things it'll be
And I'm slowly sinking down,
I'm desperate for some solid ground
Lost in love with out a map
I don't know how I'm coming back
When you kiss me under palm trees in the moonlight
And you hold me close, baby it feels so right
It's so beautiful when you let me into your life
and its so wonderful in paradise
I keep holding out hope
somewhere along this crooked road
In a little time I might know
Which way I think this love will go
And I'm sick of holding in my breath
Wondering how long this will last
I hate the insecurities of all this vulnerability
When you kiss me under palm trees in the moonlight
And you hold me close, baby it feels so right
It's so beautiful when you let me into your life
It's so wonderful in paradise
When the tides change and you decide
That you might feel the same way too
I'll be laying here in my hammock
I'll be waiting for you
When you kiss me under palm trees in the moonlight
And you hold me close, baby it feels so right
It's so beautiful when you let me into your life
It's so wonderful in paradise

Wine and Champagne
04:26
|
|||
Well you, you caught me tonight
Off guard and without much of a fight
And we've both been given quite a fright
Cause love has caught us tonight
There was nothing that we could do
As soon as I fell into you
Just two lonely hearts on a road
And two lonely hearts found a home
Wine and Champagne as we both fan a flame
It comes at a toll when you touch on a soul
We're all in the end just some trees taught to bend in the wind
That is love and this is love
When we kiss our sweetest goodbye
You'll see that look in my eyes
You'll know all the things I won't say
And you'll know I'm thinking the same
Wine and Champagne as we both fan a flame
It comes at a toll when you touch on a soul
We're all in the end just some trees taught to bend in the wind
That is love and this is love
I could never be the same
For this you're to blame
Because you opened my mind
To a new path of life
It's the most frightening thing
We've ever known and you see,
This is love, This is love
Wine and Champagne as we both fan a flame
It comes at a toll when you touch on a soul
We're all in the end just some trees taught to bend in the wind
That is love and this is love

The Fall
03:32
|
|||
I feel your warmth beside me
As you whisper in my ear
You say all of the right things
You know exactly what I like to hear
You're corrupting with your exciting
You're exactly what I don't need
But I can feel myself start breaking
Under the weight of possibility
I cant turn back
I can't say no
I can't move on
I can't let go
You hurt me with your smile
You slay me with your charm
You take all of my defenses
And leave me with no alarm
All I can wonder at how you do it
At how you understand me so well
When I'm a lost cause
I am useless
I am a mystery even to myself
I can't turn back
I can't say no
I can't move on
I can't let go
You defeat me, you defy me
And yet you take me as I am
You have learned all these things about me
And proved to be the stronger man
It's time for the last shot
It's time for the final call
As you stand in my doorway
and my heart starts to fall
Your standing with your suitcase
and I begin to lose it all
You turn your back against me
And I fall.
