Powerlines
03:51

we'll be knockin the stars right out of the sky
with a sling shot we hit the moon in the eye
we don't need them for nightlights,
we've got powerlines
we were walkin home from walmart when you said
that 'we're smarter than the flowers, in a week they're dead,'
but i told you that 'that's only when we pull them out of bed'
like kites and birds in the sky
we're catchin wind on both sides
what's been made cannot hide
kites and birds in the sky
when we ran out of fence posts we planted some trees
we decided that they're better walls than these
then remembered what they're made for
now they're breathin out the breeze
like kites and birds in the sky
we're catchin wind on both sides
what's been made cannot hide
kites and birds in the sky

Come Home

seein you again would be like the first day that fall begins
seein you again would be like the wind that brings the clouds in
how long til you're coming home
i'll be waiting for you dear,
i'll be waiting here
you're the cure and the ache, sitting next to you is all it takes
talking's not enough
anymore
how long til you're coming home
i'll be waiting for you dear,
i'll be waiting here
i'll be waiting

Rocky Places

let's make a fire in the rocky places
where there is no other light
let's make a fire in the rocky places
where i can hold you tight
let's make a fire, blow on the coals with me
my love, it's alright
even the darkness is not dark to you
Lord the night is bright as day
but i see these rocky places
and i need you to shelter me, and stay
let's make a fire in the rocky places
where there is no other light
let's make a fire, where the wind is strong
and we can't we can't we can't hold out the night
my heart cries take me up
take me back to that high place again
we went there once and i could see the storm
on the the waves
from above,
where the clouds rest
and shade the lands below
i could see the storm on the waves
from above from above
let's make a fire in the rocky places
where there is no other light
let's make a fire, blow on the coals with me
my love, it's alright

Hello Starlight
03:45
|

hello starlight
it's been a while
you've been distant
haven't seen your smile
hello starlight
it's been a while
you've been far off
too shy to smile
now's the time
so light your torches
we're going out
in the night you're gorgeous
you thought there was no one out there
who'd be calling for you
you thought that you'd stay in tonight
you thought you'd just stay blue
you were thinking of keepin quiet
you locked the door
but the shutters all are cracked and
moonlight spilled on your floor
hello starlight
it's been a while
now's the time
when the wind is wild
hello starlight
i'm calling to you
your light may be years old
but it's never too late to hear what's true

Read Me
03:41
|
|||
it's been a long long time
since i picked up this thing
the dust is getting thick
your patience wearin thin
it's been a long long while
since i read from this book
the lines i wrote don't rhyme very well
but we can take a look
been thinking bout letting you in
hope you know that
this means something
been thinking bout letting you know
cause trust is harder when the book is closed
i've been brushing you off
it's a bad habit, i know i've gotta stop
you've been pushing me back
you hopped my fence and i'm not
used to that
been thinking bout letting you in
hope you know that
this means something
been thinking bout letting you know
cause trust is harder when the book is closed
it takes time
give me some time
hold on dear
for your dear life
been thinking bout letting you in
hope you know that
this means something
been thinking bout letting you close
cause trust gets easier when we're both exposed

Tell Me Something
03:27
|
|||
tell me your story, tell me it slow
tell me a few things i don't already know
i want a glimpse of life from your side
can you take me somewhere into something you tried?
my vision can be so narrow
i got no panorama, i'm a telescope
help me aim straight for your heart
i wanna see through a distance that keeps us apart
tell me something
with more than your eyes
tell me something
while i'm by your side
i got this feeling
that i've been seeing half the picture this whole time
i know where you've been is so wide
i know there are things you can't explain, if you tried
i know i see only a small part
maybe saying i know i don't know
is the best place to start
tell me something
honey fill me in
tell me something
how bout where you've been
i got this feeling
that i've been seeing half the picture this whole time
but i know there's so much more outside these lines
but i've been missing half the picture this whole time
