This could be the song we wrote
For you to sing at our next show
This could have been your song to own
But now I'll sing it all alone

Little Things
04:35

There are pigeons always landing outside your window on that one spot
Are they the same ones or not?
You would name them these silly names
She'd laugh 'cause they'd never even cross her mind
The little things she left behind
If she comes around would you give her open arms
Or your feet hard on the ground
She would ask if you remember things that happened moments ago
That was her ongoing joke
You would always give her all the love in your heart
Be careful that's a lot
The little things add up
If she comes around would you give her open arms
Or your feet hard on the ground (x2)
Little things will get you through the day
You'll find the voice to say
The pain will go away
These little things will get you through the day
You'll find your voice and say
My pain will go away

Congrats on taking the easy way out
Looks like you got everything you want
You said you loved my golden soul
But you really want it in material form
Oh it’s so good to be rid of you like this
Oh it’s so right to hand you off to that fool
You got a little taste of it
And you already act like you’re hot shit
If this little success made you like this
Thank god you never made it really big
Oh it’s so good to be rid of you like this
Oh it’s so right to hand you off to that fool

Turn Back The Clocks
02:26

Turn back the clocks and lets start over
Or maybe I’ll love you when we’re older
I can’t help the way I feel
The way I feel about you
But now is not the time for us
How can these stars just keep on shining?
Give me a win or a silver lining
I don’t want to write these songs
To write these songs about you
But this is just my way to say that
You came to me just when I needed your love
You needed my love
Ain’t it sad there came a day
That you didn’t see me the same
And it all went away
(Instrumental)
You came to me just when I needed your love
You needed my love
Ain’t it sad there came a day
That you didn’t see me the same
And it all went away
Turn back the clocks and lets start over
Or maybe I’ll love you when we’re older
I can’t help the way I feel
The way I feel about you

Simple Man

I am a simple man
So I sing a simple song
I never been so much in love
And never hurt so bad at the same time
I am a simple man
And I play a simple tune
I wish that I could see you once again across the room
Like the first time
I just want to hold you, I don't want to hold you down
I hear what you're saying and you're spinning my head around
And I can't make it alone
The ending of the tale
Is the singing of the song
Make me proud to be your man only you can make me strong
Like the last time
I just want to hold you, I don't want to hold you down
I hear what you're saying and you're spinning my head around
And I can't make it alone

Loving You

Loving you is all I can do
And loving you is all I will do
But loving you is maybe what drives us apart in the end

Home

If I had some faith in us
I could go to bed right now
If there's a way of saving us
Would you lend me your sweet loving hand
Fighting for a chance to prove
That I could have a life with you
Is much more than I ever hope to find
You get to move on without being here for these tears
I have been seeing clearly
Come on home
Won’t you come on home
(instrumental)
Fighting for a chance to prove
That I could have a life with you
Is much more than I ever hope to find
You get to move on without being here for these tears
I have been seeing clearly
Come on home
Won’t you come on home

Counting sheep to get to sleep
May not always work
If you really want to stay with your sleepy thoughts
Dad will get to chapter 2 on another night
‘Cause now it is time to dream
You’ll go through changes and grow to be great
I’ll stay the same for you always
When life gets hard and you just need a friend
I’ll get you through all the bad days
So hold on tight
And don’t let go
Know you are not alone
‘Cause now it is time
Yes now it is time
Now it is time to dream

Out Loud
03:29
|

|
Now that you are done packing up for Nashville Tennessee
Would you please remember all the love we have when it’s just you and me?
But every time we talk I lose faith and think that we’re not gonna make it
Distance has a way of making doubts and fears feel vulnerable and naked
Oh the things we should have said out loud
We’ll run away before we say goodbye
Now that you are gone remember when we packed up California?
Glad we took the long way home I could never have enough time to adore ya
Was it me that you stopped loving or the life you thought you’d lead if you had stayed?
Either way I wish you had the guts to leave before I was betrayed
Oh the things we should have said out loud
We’ll run away before we say goodbye

Track 10
03:24

I need track 10 but I’m feeling stuck
Just one more song to sum it all up
Some inspiration or beginners luck
Is what I need right now
What’s left for me to sing about?
I’ve been miserable without a doubt
You’ve even heard me scream and shout
But here’s one more to take you out
You threw our love away
You threw our love away
You threw our love away
You threw our love away
Hope you make it to Italy
If that's the biggest goal in your life
And I hope that it sets you free
Of the pain that you’re trying to hide
‘Cause if there’s still any love for me
You thought was best if you put it aside
I can’t be bothered just let me be
I won’t be coming along for that ride
You threw our love away
You threw our love away
You threw our love away
You threw our love away
I need track 10 but I’m feeling stuck
Just one more song to sum it all up
