Who Can Keep Their Word
03:08
|
|||
Work yourself out
I’ll be here
I will still be here
Let your hair down
I’ll be round
I will be around
You never know why
Anyone stays or why they go
I take my hat off
To anyone who can keep their word

I can’t remember
I can’t remember where it was
I know why the river is wide
It’s like you don’t know how to use your own head
I can’t remember
I can’t remember why I tried
I know why
I know why the river is wide
It’s like you don’t know how to use your own head

Why don’t you know what you want?
Like I do
The hardest thing is turning away
To save me from you
I don’t know what I’m gonna do
You’re your own worst enemy
A walking, talking tragedy
I don’t know what more I can do
Sorry I don’t know what I want
Like you do
Sorry I won’t beg you to stay
To save me from myself
I don’t know what I’m gonna do
I’m my own worst enemy
A walking, talking tragedy
I don’t know what more I can do
Nobody leaves without a loss
Surely we could both be better off
I don’t know what I’m gonna do
I’m my own worst enemy
A walking, talking tragedy
I don’t know what more I can do

Sucking On The Tap
01:53
|
|||
You were young and fun and good to hang around with
Now you're sucking on the tap of wine in a bag
And the babies come crying to your rescue
Don't bother even trying to change you
More than love tonight
More than love to make a man out of you
Toxic older ladies with their wounds of steel
Smashing through the bedroom like a cannon ball
You were trapped between your misery and dreaming
So they didn't try too hard to save you
More than love tonight
More than love to make a man out of you
More than love to make a man of you
When you’re sucking on the tap of wine in a bag

Love Is A Dream
03:18
|
|||
I’ll be the friend that you need me to be
Comfort and care for you patiently
Warm like the sun and deep as the sea
I’ll be the friend that you need me to be
You be the lover that I need
Fragile and strong simultaneously
Forgiving and kind and gentle with me
You be the lover that I need
Love is a dream
Heaven on earth, that’s all I ask
Endless future, invisible past
Stable and true, the first and the last
Heaven on earth, that’s all I ask
Love is a dream
I’ll be the man I hope I can be
Quiet and calm, mostly happy
Don’t give up babe, don’t give up on me
I’ll be the man I hope I can be
|

For all my friends that I pushed aside
To the girls that I can’t look in the eye
Help me wash my hands and be free
Because I’m worried what you think of me
With my boundless greedy pride
And my countless lazy lies
Help me do right this time
For the love I know I’ve lost
For my dreams that I let turn to rust
Help me be the best I can be
Because I’m worried how you’ll remember me
For my selfish and single minded ways
Burning in this self-destructive blaze
Help me do right this time

Out Of Control
03:47
|
|||
Little did I know the waves had drowned me
A painful lullaby, the well was so deep
Little did I know I was out of control
Then you came in with a love for me
That I didn't understand
I didn't understand
You came in with a love for me
And I didn't understand
I was out of control
Little did I know I had something broken
A painful lullaby I made myself sing
Little did I know I was out of control
Then you came in with a love for me
That I didn't understand
I didn't understand
You came in with a love for me
I didn't understand
I was out of control
And I still am
Out of control
|

There’s nothing you can say
Won’t make you stay high on my list
Nothing you can show or that has been
That I can resist
Tell me something that won’t do my head in
Lie back and think of anything
Give me a reason to say all nice things
All nice things
Everything you do to make your dream come true
Hurts you somehow
None of your defense is making sense
You wear yourself out
Tell me something that won’t do my head in
Lie back and think of anything
Give me a reason to say all nice things
All nice things

Tall And Pretty
02:06
|
|||
Run as far as you can, there's so little time
I'm changing the sheets, you're changing your mind
The night was divine, but the day, no such matter
Everyone else has misses and hits
You seem to win and it gives me the shits
Tonight you're alone, but at least you're still tall and pretty
Find a new town where they don't know your face
Beat everyone like love is a race
You're living so wild, bad luck will find you
Wherever you are, I'd call to confess
I meant when I said that I loved you the best
That doesn't mean I won't love someone better

All The Things I Do
02:58
|
|||
I grew the forest from a seed
I made the mountains tall
I willed the ocean rise and fall
I threw the planets ‘round the sun
I drew the stars by hand
With wings on their heels and hearts
All the things I do
To make me worthy of you
I wore the rocks down into sand
I turned the sea to rain
I painted sunset pink and blue
All the things I do
To make me worthy of you

Last Point
01:40
|
|||
This is my last point
Won’t be making no phone call
This time I’m free
Free from what hurts me
Free from what makes me feel like I’m wrong
This is my last one
|
||||
12. |
||||
It’s closing time
But I just don’t want to go
There’s someone here I can see
I should get to know
Could it be the shots or the money I dropped
I don’t know
Please just take me home
To the bed I know
Please just take me home
It’s closing time,
Now there’s nowhere else to go
I lost my friends two bars ago
And I’ve gone so hard since then
Could it be the shots or the money I dropped
I don’t know
Please just take me home
To the bed I know
Please just take me home
