Starting Over
Want to free myself from these chains tonight
witness something beautiful like you
be like Adam and Eve in snakeskin boots
making bets with the devil on who’s gonna lose
a prayer a wish
it doesn’t matter
if you don’t care what happens after
Breaking...Healing
Starting over Again
Floating... Waiting
For the dream to begin
Razor wire and diesel fumes
air so thick it chokes the interstate blue
I keep heading south but my mind gets stuck
on a place and time where I last saw you
long enough that’s all I’m asking
only you can make it happen
Breaking healing
Starting over Again
Floating waiting
For the dream to begin

Cant fight what makes you smile
Cherry raindrop
sweet as all
we’re lifted up
the same time we fall
under the covers
we toss and turn
then a running jump
busting walls
We got high
We got low
We got lost, it was beautiful
In the laughter
We got lost a while
You cant fight what makes you smile
Friday lover
Sunday friend
baby that’s not how the story ends
I know you want to
to be free to
live the life
but you gotta let it in,
We got high
We got low
We got lost it was beautiful ya..
In the laughter..
We got lost a while
You can’t fight what makes you smile

Love That's Gold

Love That’s Gold
Looking back Hanna on the days we had
before we slipped through the pavement cracks
don’t they say that opposites attract
oh baby
should've realized that the shoe don’t fit
I had to let you go but I didn’t want to quit
I’m on the floor with my heart in bits
baby
You Gotta Love that’s Gold
You Gotta Love that’s Gold
You Gotta Love that’s Gold
And I got a Poor man’s Soul
You’re the real treasure I’m an empty chest
one step ahead of the emptiness
gonna do what I do best
and walk away
there’s hope for sinner even ones with faith
I could never buy your class or grace
don’t matter cuz I’m out of place anyway

Burn it Down

Burn It Down
That day we swam in the ocean
and tossed all fear away
we got pummelled by the motion
of wave after wave
We left our home in the valley
and all the friends we had there
but sometimes it’s just better
to strike a match and say a prayer
Burn it down
Burn it down
Light it up
Look around
Burn it down
Watch the flames
Give way to change
We’re not the same
So Burn it down
Sometimes new beginnings
start with ashes on the ground
we were dying just to live
and our voices made no sound
tears don’t put out fires
it’s more like gasoline
like crying in an ocean
you can feel what can’t be seen

Starlight

STARLIGHT
Starlight
she walks away and says it’s
stage fright
she can’t be playing a part that ain’t right
so I walk on alone
She says love me
but don’t get close
because then I can’t breath
I try to stand back but fall on my knees
what ever happened to Starlight
Shadows need a light beam
Her eyes when they see me
Light up but only briefly
Starlight
Starlight
light years later
and I’ve lost sight
of us together
that binary star
she never gave it much hope
Shadows need a light beam
Her eyes when they see me
Light up but only briefly
Starlight
Starlight
she walks away then says it’s
stage fright
she can’t be playing
a part that ain’t right
so I walk on alone
Starlight
She keeps on shining
Starlight
Can’t help but smile
Starlight
She keeps shining alone

Shooting Star

Oh Shooting star
We were carried away
into the cosmic display
Algonquin park, late July
on our backs, enjoying the ride
Hand in hand,
we laid out a plan
the Perseids rained down above
we found we thought was love
Oh shooting star
You got it wrong again
Weren’t you listening
Oh shooting star
You burned up on us
A wish trails to dust
The carnival tent
came and went
they pulled the pegs it all came down
an endless sky now fills an empty town
A Crystal ball
the fortune teller saw
a future where stars aligned
it wasn’t yours or mine
Oh shooting star
You got it wrong again
Weren’t you listening
Oh shooting star
You burned up on us
A wish trails to dust

Devils Blues

Devil’s Blues
We pulled our hoods up
against a driving rain
we walked steady on
like a rolling train
what sounded like music
was getting harder to hear
as the city raged around us
the words came out loud and clear
I want our love to be true
For you to hear me like I hear you
And if it’s a long shot
Inside the chaos
Then there’s not much to lose
Lost inside the noise
Beware of the devil’s blues
Melted wax from a broken candle
shaped like a heart, that’s too hot to handle
but we pressed our luck
and it got us this far
one prays to hear the angels sing
above voices in the dark
I want our love to be true
For you to hear me like I hear you
And if it’s a long shot
Inside the chaos
Then there’s not much to lose
Lost inside the noise
Beware of the devils blues

It's Just Words
02:41

It’s just words
Words, they’re only words
until you’ve found the words to say
all your feeling
what haunts your dreaming
until you fall on your knees to pray
Somewhere between earth and sky
It has nowhere to hide
It found you and me
There’s no other place to run
Can’t hideout from the sun
It shines on you and me
Can you see, they’re just words
till you know what they mean
You make everything better
We get through together good or bad
We make it through
To understand it
You gotta believe the magic
In what three words can do
Somewhere between earth and sky
It has nowhere to hide
It found you and me
There’s no other place to run
Can’t hideout from the sun
It shines on you and me
Can you see, they’re just words
And that's all you need
When you know what they mean

Colour Wheel

Colour wheel
Blue
the colour of you…
your Head against my shoulder
content not to move
Red
you lose your head
guns ablazing
one foot in crazy
I’d rather blue instead
Colour wheel
You are what you feel you make it real
A spectrum a rainbow
A colour wheel
Pink
does it matter what I think?
your minds made up
and I’m stuck
always first to blink
Gray
you shy away
on those rainy days
you tuck in a little closer
and know just what to say
Colour wheel
You are what you feel you make real
A Spectrum a rainbow
A colour wheel

Outside the Circle

Outside the circle
Long shadows cast
from an autumn sun
arms around each other
taller than everyone
light deceives
the sun recedes
got smaller with every moment
Under the changing leaves
We step out of the circle
no longer do we know
where will this love go
or do we start over
can we start something
outside the circle
Leaves keeps falling
raining fire and gold
gets cold this time of year
makes it harder to let go
I could see
what you could feel
spinning away from the centre
defying gravity
We step out of the circle
no longer do we know
where will this love go
or do we start over
can we do something
outside the circle
You could say three words
And I would believe them
Maybe we just need a change of season
