All I Wanna Do

Sometimes it fits like the perfect dress
The one you always seem to forget
Sometimes it’s right like the perfect night
The one you don’t want to end you just want it to play
Over and over again…
Oh all I wanna do (all I wanna do)
All I wanna do (all I wanna do)
All I wanna do is get to know you
And all I wanna need (all I wanna need)
All I wanna need (all I wanna need)
All I wanna need is you beside me
Oh all I wanna do (all I wanna do)
All I wanna do (all I wanna do)
All I wanna do is love you
One of these days always seems to change
When you smile at me through the murky haze
You could be my cool drink of water in the hot desert sand
I’ll be your guiding star always helping you land ‘cause
All I wanna do (all I wanna do)
All I wanna do (all I wanna do)
All I wanna do is get to know you
And all I wanna need (all I wanna need)
All I wanna need (all I wanna need)
All I wanna need is you beside me
Sometimes it’s simple
And you’re waiting for the catch
But no one’s waiting in the wings saying
No you can’t have that
Oh all I wanna do (all I wanna do)...

Dear CA.

No matter what they say I won’t think of you that way
You’re all I won’t out grow
We ain’t a one trick single season show
Dear CA - I’ll write you when I’m gone
Good to know ya - can’t stay away too long
CA - you’ve always been the one…
Even when I’m on the run
You’re my diamond in the sun
I heard your name on someone else’s lips
Had to admit I was the one to drift
Be back before they say
I’m thinking of heading out that way
Dear CA - I’ll write you when I’m gone
Good to know ya - can’t stay away too long
CA - you’ve always been the one…
Even when I’m on the run
I keep believing I’ll be here until the day I die
And you’ll be here until the end of time
But if our love falls tragically to the sea
Won’t you promise to sail away with me
Dear CA - I’ll write you when I’m gone
Good to know ya - can’t stay away too long
CA - you’ve always been the one…
Even when I’m on the run
You’re my diamond in the sun

My Heart, My Heart
04:00

My TV stopped breathing
The dresser drawers don’t seem to fit in
The clock on the wall has forgotten to keep time again
I think my eyes are too damn wide to ever sleep
At least I know you know what I mean
The night was free our hearts were heavy
And our minds relenting
The night was young our hearts adjacent
We were almost patient
I had two hands upon the wheel but I wanted you to steal
My heart my heart
The kitchen is starting to panic
The couch is tired of being old
The ceiling fan it spins like it seems to know
Can’t stop wondering if the devil’s eyes are the sky’s shade of blue
You said rest your head on my shoulder, baby I’ve been there too
The night was free our hearts were heavy
And our minds relenting
The night was young our hearts adjacent
We were almost patient
I had two hands upon the wheel but I wanted you to steal
My heart my heart
Can’t stop wondering if the devil’s eyes are the sky’s shade of blue
You said rest your head on my shoulder, and I knew you’d been there too
The night was free our hearts were heavy
And our minds relenting
The night was young our hearts adjacent
We were almost patient
I had two hands upon the wheel but then I let you steal
My heart my heart

Slow Exit
04:39

When I first laid eyes on you baby
I knew one day I’d never want to leave
When I first laid eyes on you baby
I hoped to god one day you’d really see me
So I did my thing kept moving on
Took a slow exit thought we were the short haul
But baby I need you now like I didn’t need you then
Baby I need you now like I didn’t need you then
I feel something I’ve never felt before creepin’ in
Are we a toss of the die a dance with the devil
Or could we see this one through?
You know I don’t believe in the one and you don’t believe in anyone
That’s your hard earned truth
But I’ll turn this around knowing it’s time to stay
That slow exit will seem miles away
‘Cause baby I need you now like I didn’t need you then
Baby I need you now like I didn’t need you then
I feel something I’ve never felt before creepin’ in

Left you by the side of the road
Too distant to be cold
Nail polish chipped
The red on your lips smeared in
And you waved like you could save me
You waved like there’s no such thing as goodbye
I glanced back and imagined your deep set eyes
You glanced down at your watch
Like you couldn’t see time
And I knew that I broke
Something you’ve never known
Oh Rosalee I knew you well
You didn’t think that I could tell
Oh Rosalee I never meant to leave
Oh Rosalee I thought I’d stay
Take a pistol to your pain
Oh can’t you see how simple we could be?
My Rosalee
It’s better to guess than it is to regret
That’s what you always said
Now I finally know what you meant
So I guess that you’re doing fine
And I don’t regret the time passing us by
I’ll keep writing those letters I never send
And Imagine running into you again
With your eyelids painted blue like the sky
A smile that never seemed to die
Oh Rosalee I knew you well
You didn’t think that I could tell
Oh Rosalee I never meant to leave
Oh Rosalee I thought I’d stay
Take a pistol to your pain
Oh can’t you see how simple we could be?
My Rosalee
Sometimes I believe that we’re all one and the same
That we make each other up
And we make each other sane
Oh Rosalee I think I’m finally free
My Rosalee

Pick-Me-Up
04:02

Is it all right
If you stay here all night
Or has it gone away?
Maybe, baby just one more day
‘cause I can’t get more low
Maybe you left long ago
I’m thick, you’re thin
Can’t believe the shape I’m in
Baby, I bought us a pick-me-up
With the hopes I didn’t let you down
These consenting circles, call it a merry-go-round
Baby I bought us a pick-me-up
Is it all right
If I stay here all my life
Or is it too late?
Too late to believe in faith?
Cause I can’t get high
When you and I can’t get by
I’m black and you’re blue
Can’t believe what we tripped into
Baby, I bought us a pick-me-up
With the hopes I didn’t let you down
These consenting circles, call it a merry-go-round
Baby I bought us a pick-me-up

You’re my favorite mistake
You’re my blue-eyed snake
You’re my last chance waltz
My true and false
You’re my make-me-believe
Yes it’s new no it’s me
Back to the start til death do us part
You’re my one and only cause I’d rather not be lonely
Almost no one could make me leave you
Almost no one could make me leave you
Make me leave you
Can I take me away
Can I make myself stay
Can I pull this apart
Close to heart of
You’re my one and only ‘cause I’d rather not be lonely
Almost no one could make me leave you
Almost no one could make me leave you
And we talk a good game but we’re still playing
I mean half of what I say but that’s changing
I’m staying...still waiting
Almost no one could make me leave you…

These Days

We used to lie down in the grass
Counting headlights while shooting stars
We could only count to 10 but it didn’t matter much to us then
Now I’m wondering if we could lie down young again
Right and Wrong have a place of their own
Neither one can find a home these days
Right and Wrong have a place of their own
Neither one can find a home these days
These Days
The lessons were crystal clear
Like the special glasses we drank out of once a year
But the days they do pass and the simple times only last
in the cracks of the sidewalks we now drive past
Right and Wrong have a place of their own
Neither one can find a home these days
Right and Wrong have a place of their own
Neither one can find a home these days
These Days
There’s a haze unlike the city smog you say
Just too much to wrap your head around these days
I say it’s neither right nor wrong but all that we’ve known
Is the world growing old and us growing older these days
These Days
I’m still wondering if we can lie down young again
Right and Wrong have a place of their own
Neither one can find a home these days
Right and Wrong have a place of their own
Neither one can find a home these days
These Days

Time Wasn't Wasted
03:34

The train it arrives at the same station
The sun it hasn’t forgotten to shine
But I can’t remember the last time I saw you cry
The blame it arrives at the same stages
That pot we both watched barely ever boiled
And maybe one I won’t remember your favorite record
Oh but time wasn’t wasted being what we were
No time wasn’t wasted being what we were
But now here we are
The day it arrives though you lost your place in time
The moon reflects the sun’s place in line
But baby I can’t shine without you by my side
No I can’t shine without you by my side
Oh but time wasn’t wasted being what we were
No time wasn’t wasted being what we were
Time wasn’t wasted being what we were
But now here we are
