How Did You Know
05:11
|

How did you know, I'd give you everything?
How did I know, you'd touch the deepest part of me?
Well the truth is, there was no way to know - here we go.
I let you in, right from the start.
Better judgment would have thrown you out
But the truth is, there was no way to know - here we go
It was enough to feel you there beside me
No words were spoken - no move to be made
Between stands a dazzling horizon
Me on the shore, and you on the wave
The truth is, there was no way to know - here we go

Nothing is higher
Nothing is wider
Nothing is deeper
Nothing is sweeter
Nothing is greater than love
I've travelled near and far
I've found with my heart
What I've been searching for is behind your door
All I have to do is open it
Without regret I say
Goodbye yesterday
I don't want to lean on the things that are gone
All I want to do is say to you the words I've kept inside

I Could Learn
04:01
|
|||
I've been good at running
I've been good at hiding
For as long as I can remember, I've been real good at denying
I was chasing ghosts and boxing shadows
The only thing I've ever trusted is which way the wind blows
If you teach me, I could learn to love
If you reach for me, I could learn to give
If you hold me, I could learn to feel
If you let me go, I could learn to live
When you run in circles
You don't change direction
But before you get to the answer, you've got to face the question
Fear is a lover
Fool of confusion
When you push the smoke away, you will see it's just illusion
What’s the use of life if you're just breathing
Never touching anybody else
Never needing, never being needed
When you get right down to the heart of it, you really only hurt yourself

He Was Everything
03:07
|
|||
He was everything she ever wanted
He was everything she ever wanted
He was everything she ever wanted
So she got rid of him
She got rid of him
He was nice to her kids and he took out the trash
Was good in the kitchen took the rats out of the traps
He mowed the lawn, he did the laundry
He bought her stuff and he took her out dancing
He was such a jerk
He was such a jerk
He knew when to kiss her, and when to not
He knew how she moved and when to stop
He never even hit her, never even came close
He always tried to laugh at her really stupid jokes
He was such a jerk
He was such a jerk
She couldn’t understand how he could be so cruel
To waltz right in and undermine her established house rules

Maybe
03:20
|
|||
Maybe the sky is falling
Maybe the air is thin
Maybe the room is too small - the walls are closing in
Maybe all time has stopped
Maybe all of its true
Maybe it's because you just said - I love you
Maybe my knees are weak
My feet have turned to clay
Maybe my heart won't beat, and my tongue just slipped away
Maybe my eyes are dull
All they see is you
Maybe it's because you just said - I love you
What if I don't want to?
Maybe this is a movie
Maybe this is a dream
Maybe I made the whole thing up and it's not what it seems
Maybe I am crazy
Maybe you're crazy too
Maybe it's because you just said - I love you
What if I don't want to?

Not This Time
03:42
|
|||
I’m not going to fall for you not this time, not now
Your kisses won’t steal my heart
Not this time around
I’m not going to fall for you, not this time, not now
Your hands won’t reach for me, not this time around
Some have dreamed of nights like this
Some claim it in a lifetime before
I’m standing on the edge in front of it
It’s not for me – it’s not my turn
I’m not going to fall for you, not this time, not now
Your voice won’t call my name, not this time around

Leave
06:26
|
|||
I would not have cared if you had said goodbye
Would not have mentioned you leaving in the middle of the night
Would not have given two thoughts to you leaving me behind
But you said that you loved me and you lied
So go on, take your things and get your hands off my dreams
Baby leave
Take the last train to Clarksville, the midnight train to Georgia, just leave
Don’t look back, I’ll be gone
I am done – moving on
You’ve got nothing I could possibly need
Baby, just leave
You never told me you’d love me for life
You never told me you’d be only mine
You never told me that this was do or die
But you told me that you loved me and you lied
Goodbye between you and I shouldn’t take very long
Subtract the truth from the lies and you’ve got nothing to say at all

Diamond Back
03:28
|
|||
Oh take me down where the land rolls around
And the wind comes up from nowhere
Where the Live Oak stands against sweet Juniper
And the hawk is suspended in the air
Emerald under, blue all over, gold is running down
All the way through, up and back around
Diamond Back
Dirt roads pushing up miles of clouds
Mesas shadow up with light
Time stands still, while right before your eyes
The horizon is painted as still life
Emerald under, blue all over, gold is running down
All the way through, up and back around
Diamond Back
Sun rises up, covers the sky
Moon sings me to sleep

Till I Get It Right
03:09
|
|||
I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right
Right now I'm like a wounded bird hungry for the sky
But if I try my wings and try long enough I'm bound to learn to fly
So I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right
My door to love has opened up more times than in
And I'm either fool or wise enough to open it again
'Cause I'll never know what's beyond the mountain tlil I reach the other side
So I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right
If practice makes perfect
Then I'm near 'bout as perfect as I'll ever be in my life
So I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right

I Could Tell You A Story
04:18
|
|||
I have pulled the trigger, at least 1000 times
Too bad I’ve been dreaming, and you’re still alive
I never used to think this way
My thoughts were always sweet
But you have dawn a picture
With colors I can’t believe
I can tell you a story
A good one like you do
I can tell you a story, a story
I can tell one too
I remember promises, I mark them with a tear
I count them as you break them, my memory is clear
If prayers would be answered
And if justice would be just
You’d have the dreams you dreamed of
And they’d blow away like dust
Scattered glass lies all around you
Guess you’ve thrown one too many stones

Irresistible
02:56
|
|||
Irresistible, everything I want and more
Irresistible to me
You took my heart
Right from the start
You’re what momma told me about
OH irresistible to me
I see it coming, you are gonna be mine
I’ll treat you right baby
All I’ve got is time
And if you tell me that you feel the same
We can start tonight babe
I don’t need a game
There aint no such thing as too good to be true
But I’ll take my chances
If I get me and you
Let’s talk about it, baby this could be
Forever after
Life is but a dream
OO, irresistible
O, irresistible
OO , irresistible to me
OO, irresistible
O, irresistible
OO, irresistible to me

Tonight Only
04:15
|
|||
Show me I’ll follow you anywhere
Take me I’m yours for the asking
Inconsequential my heart beats for no one
Looking for only tonight
Don’t you see me
See me for what I am
Tonight only
You will be my one night stand
I don’t require conversation
Sweet nothings are exactly that
You’re just my current distraction
Need you for only tonight
Do you hear me
Feign weak by my forward advance
Tonight only
You will be my one night stand
