I’m gonna call you on the phone
Tell you that I’m coming soon
Cause I have been missing you
I know you better than
Anyone can know you
Cause everything we’ve been through
Can you see the summer light
I can see it in my mind
I can’t wait to see you
I’m packing up my car
Gonna fill it up with gas
Gonna hit at daybreak
I’ve packed all your favorite things
All of these memories
The ones that I keep safe
Can you see the summer light
I can see it in my mind
Can you feel all of this life
As it rushes up inside
Can you hold on to the thought
The one that you can’t be without
And I can’t wait to see you
Gonna take the back roads
Outside the center of town
Pass by the blue church
Drive out through the country
Pass through pastures
Go to where the fields never end
Where we begin again
I’m gonna take the back roads

First Snow

If time can not erase the troubles that you face
You’ve reached out with your hands and held on tight
Take it all in stride and I say buckle for the ride
Hold on to life case it needs you
Hold on to life
If angels in the sky won’t take you for the ride
You’re trying to clear the dust so you can see
You’re feeling left behind like there is nothing you can find, then I say
Hold on to me cause I need you
Hold on to me
All of the others
They don’t know what I know
They closed up their shutters
As they felt the first snow
If I had a crystal ball and somehow could see all
I’d make this hand I’m holding fit the glove
Maybe there’s a chance you would take this day and dance
Then I say hold on to to love cause it needs you hold on to love
Hold on to love

Butterfly

Yesterday’s gone with the sun
I can feel it on my back as I have begun again
And All that I see is you there
As I’m holding on tightly and grasping for air
And I am looking out, looking in I can see
And I know you know, I know you know, I know you know we are here
A new day has come once again
I’ve boarded the train as I am settling in
I look out my window and see
All the world’s moving faster it is faster than me
And I am looking out, looking in I can see
And I know you know, I know you know, I know you know we are here
Butterfly fly through the light
Take refuge in trees and sleep through the night
And when the dawn comes I’ll watch you take flight
Yes I’ll stay right here till you’re out of site
Yesterday’s gone with the sun
But I’m getting much stronger as I have begun again
And I can still see you right there
But I’m living my life as I’m breathing this air
And I am looking out, looking in I can see
And I know you know, I know you know, I know you know we are one

Storm
03:59
|

If I could follow my heat
Know I would follow my heart
But it leads me to you and this tears me apart
I would give this all away
I would give this all away
I’d give it to you and I’d ask you to stay
When the dawn breaks
I can see the light
Coming through the horizon
And I feel the life
I would dive in the water
No I would not look for a shore
You see cause I breathe like no other
Yes I am the storm
If I could take this day
You know I would take this day
I’d take it real slow, one step at a time
I’d want to spend it with you
I’d want to spend it with you
Cause I want to see where this takes us to
When the night falls
How I count my stars
I look to the heavens
I know that they’re not far
If I could follow my heat
You know I would follow my heart
But it leads me to you and this tears me apart

Somehow

I wish you’d hold me in your arms
You see tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’ll hold on to all we’ve been
I see this light is fading into friends
I’ll still send kisses every day
Even when I am far away
I can write your story down
Cause its you I always want to know
I can’t let go
So I ask you
Are you working the weekend
How are mom and dad
Do you have plans today
Are feeling good
Feeling Bad
Are you driving into Boston
Fishing on the coastline
Riding your bike today
I know how you like to get away
Somehow I’m Locked out of innocence
I don’t know how to be
But I know I can take you there
Somehow I’m stepping out on the Street
Wont you step out with me
I know I can meet you there
Are you driving into Boston
Fishing on the coastline
Riding your bike today
I know how you like to get away

With You
03:30
|

Take me back to a time that I know
Rest here a while, you will see
Tomorrow there will be light in their eyes
As I see you’re looking at me
And I know light moves faster and grows
And I know time takes life as it goes
The ocean washed over me
This hour stood still
As I’m sitting here by the moon
I’ll hold your tomorrow like nobody could
And I’ll take you back to my room
And I know light moves faster and glows
And I know time takes life as it goes
Life as it goes faster and faster
Life as it goes riding the waves
I will be there come hell or high water
I want to share life as it goes with you
And I know light moves faster and grows
And I know time takes life as it goes

Sun Light

Oh how I like to make you smile
It is a perfect day today
I’ll pour a drink or two for you
And we can get away
I’m going to make this time today
This time in our life slips away
And I know you can make me smile
And I can see you
Sunlight on the lake
I see summer fade
Hold me close and hold me tight
Laying down on the grass tonight
Meeting friends for drinks downtown
Riding tandem all around
Hold on tightly to you
It’s you who’s got me
I can hold all of your thoughts
It’s you who’s beautiful and lost
And how I’d like I loose myself
And get away

Missing You
03:59
|

I gonna look you in eyes
I gonna day goodbye for now
I don’t want to go
Say the word we’ll take this slow
Want to take a ride
Cause I’m gonna take a look inside
I want to find my way back home
And it’s raining now
I just don’t care
I am on the street
I’m just standing here
There is so much more
That I want to be
I am missing you
Are you missing me
I gonna put this down
I’m gonna take a look around
Cause this wasn’t mine
And I must walk away
But I’ll take this day
Yes I’ll take one day at a time
Because tomorrow isn’t mine
I will hold this like a fall day
Just knowing everything will change
The sun goes down
The sun goes down

Deja Vu
04:15
|
|||
It is there in November when the sky it got dark
And the leaves they all fell from the trees
And the woods they look different as they always unveil
I am falling in love with this breeze
I’ve watched you closely
I’m certain that there’s something more this should be
I can’t yet explain it
And I don’t have the words
I just want you to recognize me
Cause I know you
Somehow I know you
You’re my deja vu
And it’s there in the moment when the world is so quiet
I am left here alone with my thoughts
Tonight the sky looks so clear and the stars are so bright
I can not help this feeling I’m lost
I’ve seen so many places
And so many life’s
And I’ve walked this road holding your hand
But I will let go soon and I’ll learn to fly
I promise you I’ll learn to land
It’s a flickering light put out by soft rain
In this flickering world your my flickering flame
It’s as fragile as ice it may all melt away
It’s as fragile as life for it takes breaths to stay

Fall
04:51
|
|||
I can see daylight is calling me
Holding my hand still I want to be
I do not know why I’m free falling out of this sky
Holding a time that I didn’t break
I would not make all the same mistakes
I wouldn’t be here if I couldn’t be here at all
Now in this stormier weather
I’m certain this day will catch up to me
I don’t know what I’ll find but if you
Follow me I’ll follow you
Fall like you have nothing left to break
Live this life like there are no mistakes
Cry like there’s nothing more they can take
Follow me I’ll follow you
Dance in the light that’s so awesome bright
You can walk through the dark cause you are the light
No promises that it will turn out right
Follow me I’ll follow you
Home dear, yes I’ve left a light on my porch
I’ve left it so you can come home
Cause I see you, I see right through
Daybreak, it’s only an hour away
Yet still I lie here awake
Thinking of you and trying to get through
Take time before time takes you away
Case it will be gone before you can look in their eyes and wish them goodbye
I fell down down this rabbit hole
