If I could draw you a picture
So beautiful, so lovely.
Of you.
And only you.
I would draw it and lay it beside you.
You.
And only you.
Cast a spell.
And spread  it upon you.
Wrap you up in my arms,
And never let you go.
You.
And only you.
From now untill forever,
It’s just you.
And only you.
I love you.
And Only you.

You always leave the light on when you leave
As a reminder to me that you were there
And it isn’t fair.
Why should I be left to lay in my defeat
While you rush out and retreat.

You always leave the light on when you leave
I’m reminded that we’re just not meant to be.
To be comforted by an imprint in the sheets.
while a shadow makes it way to the street.

Dont I get a say in how we burn this village down?
You brought your Trojan horse to my beach.
And it’s like all we had is out of reach.
And oh how far I’ve reached.

You always leave the light on when you leave.
As a reminder that you were there and it isn’t  fair.
Why should I be left to lay in my defeat. While you rush out in your retreat.

Oh brilliant stars above
Whether  your standing still or shining bright,
You fill my mind with wonder.
Oh what a sight it is to gaze upon your shine.
A twinkle for every empty space.
A light that’s dead before it arrives.
What tragedy this story hides.
A black canvas to make its own.
The stars they always find a home.
Infinity Wishes forever wished upon.
Not everyone answered,
Not everyone fallen in love.
Great Norh star that leads the way.
Finds me when I can’t find my way.
The marker north, pointing on.
The stars above will guide me home.

Say your goodbyes
Kick rocks to the road
Because you can’t go back.
There’s no changing the past.

Let the storm past
Seek shelter from the fallout
Don’t look back
It’s not what it once was.

You can do the same old dance
Around around again
You can sing the same old lines
You can stay the same

The night is young
Your soul is not
So put the past to rest
Your alright now.

When I met you in the dark
In the cold December night.
Your eyes pierced my soul.
And immediately every hole
Began to fill with light.

We told each other stories
Of ghost from our past
And how we were both Looking
To find happiness again.

When you say you have to go
I can see you want to stay.
And my head fills up with a thousand words to say.
But all I can get out is, “ok.”

And when the door closes shut
And I’m on the other side
I whisper to the dark
“I love you.”

For awhile we watched
As something special grew.
And everyday brought me closer to you,
A fire in my heart started to Burn.

But I would come to learn
The fire started to soon
And like the sun you went away
Replaced by the darkness.
And once again I found myself swallowed up by pain.

When you say you have to go
I can see you want to stay.
And my head fills up with a thousand words to say.
But all I can get out is, “ok.”

And when the door closes shut
And I’m on the other side
I whisper to the dark
“I love you.”

I’d like you to know I’ll  always remember you.
And the way your eyes danced in the light.
The way you warmed my heart
As I held you in my arms.
The touch of your skin against  my own.

When you say you have to go
I can see you want to stay.
And my head fills up with a thousand words to say.
But all I can get out is, “ok.”

And when the door closes shut
And I’m on the other side
I whisper to the dark
“I love you.”

As the frozen lake begins to melt,
The summer arrives and beats it’s chest.
From frost bite to sun tans.
From cold wind to cool sand.
From warm gloves to warm hands.
Seasons change and so do we.
I got love for you. And I got life for the world.
Together we can explore it like it’s our own.
I got doubts but their small,
Compared to what we have.
We will rule his world
And the seasons will still pass.

Your a long way from home
But You don’t  feel alone
In a city so big it could swallow you whole
The pavement is vibrating
People seem busy
Distracted by everything
But one thing in common
They all have to go.
The cars stuck in traffic
Signal lights dancing above
Yeah it’s a familiar site
But brings such a delight to the soul
We all play a role
A beat to the drum of life
A pace to the step we all take
In directions all different but end all the same
So you can’t feel alone
When the lights never stop
And the people shuffle for hours unknown
and the Bridges, tunnels, and highways go on forever
And you can’t possibly come to an end

The mother she is broken, tattered and torn.
shes given her soul to her family and lord.
The father is busy with work and a secretary with low self esteem.
The son is busy looking at boys and the daughters is busy with all sorts of boys.
Well what a family.
That’s what you call a family.

They married young right out of high school.
She got knocked up and that’s where it went downhill
He started drinking and messing around.
She kept busy stuck close to the house.

Now one crying baby led to another.
A strong face was worn by the mother.
The father slaves to bring in some cash.
But he just wished to rewind the past.

Well that’s a family.
That’s whats you call a family.
One big happy family.

I was smoking a cigarette, in the early morning hours.
Devoured by the fog that came to claim its home.
The neighbors started shouting as they usually do.
The city starts to wake and speak.
I wonder what it says to you?

The wife began to clamor out the front door.
Dragging behind her, her husbands clothes.
He followed behind her not fazed and unamused.
Like this had happened before.

A single taxi  stutters by.
No service sign is lit.
The drivers face, like a ghost.
I wonder where he’s been?

The whole world is working.
It never stopped, since I’ve been standing here.
The streets lights begin to flicker off.
The sun begins to rise.
My cigarette has long been out.
And my lungs again fed up.

I wonder where your waking up?
I wonder do you think of me?
A city so big you could hide forever.
A city so big we could rule it together.
Set fire ourselves.
Burn it down if that’s what we pleased.
Or we can build it up.
Have towers in the sky.
And watch it till we grow old together.
I wonder if this could be?

Its the cold dark night
That tears apart  your heart
And leaves you in the dark  
Hollowed out to rot.

The sounds they are so deafening
Of sirens going past.
The city lights are blinding
From above the shadows cast.

And you call out to the wind.
And hear the silence stay.
You were once alive.
But now your left astray.

In the cold dark night
Your worst fears they come alive.
And eat at you like demons
From below and above they fight.

Its the cold dark night
That tears apart  your heart
And leaves you in the dark  
Hollowed out to rot.

I had dreams when I was a boy
I thought I’d grow to own the world.
I wished I’d known
What I know now.
I would not be where I am now.

I could have grown up to be something big.
Instead I’m asking questions to the wind.
And it goes on.
Like the birds will always sing.
I’ll go on
Like I knew I’d always be on my own.

Helllo are you listening?
Hello is anyone even there?
Are you out there or am I talking to myself?
Can someone please tell me?

Am I alone?
Or is someone by my side?
Can I just known please?
The comfort would set me fine.
