Better Days


You’ve got me
Falling for you darlin’
Falling for the part
That’s deep inside your eyes
The part that recognizes me
Just two angels singing in harmony

Still you’ve caught me
Crawlin’ like a baby
Crawlin’ ’till I maybe
Teach these legs to stand
To carry who I plan to be
When I get out of this misery

Oh and I
I believe
We’re a part of a heart
That’s just begun
Oh and I believe there are
Better days to come

And you’ve got me
Aiming for you darlin’
Aiming for the part
That seeps into my soul
And speaks straight to the whole of me
Of a promise of serendipity

Still you’ve caught me
Changing my position
Changing in transition
Like a butterfly
Learning how to spread my wings
So one day I can fly over everything

Oh and I
I believe
We’re a part of a heart
That’s just begun
Oh and I believe there are
Better days to come

You’ve got me
Falling for you darlin’
Falling for the part
That’s deep inside your eyes
The part that recognizes me
Just two angels singing in harmony

Oh and I
I believe
We’re a part of a heart
That’s just begun
Oh and I believe there are
Better days to come
Oh yes I believe there are
Better days to come

Two Apples


I don’t know you
but I like all that I see
There’s a lot of you in me dear
And though I don’t know your name

We’re two apples from the same tree
happy but lonely
thinkin’ that maybe
we should stop and stay a while.
And I think we both know
that if we take it nice and slow
I’m gonna love you
for a long long time.

You don’t know me
but you’ve seen me in your dreams
hidden deep inside the scenes dear
As we kissed under the rain

Just two apples from the same tree
happy but lonely
thinkin’ that maybe
we should stop and stay a while.
And I think we both know
that if we take it nice and slow
I’m gonna love you
for a long long time.

And I get it.
Love has treated you unkindly in the past
and now you think that it won’t last
another day.
But don’t let it
start to tear you down inside
Until you hide and walk away.
It takes a long, long time.

(humming)

What should we do?
How do we give this a chance?
Try to take a deeper glance dear.
There is no one we can blame.

We’re two apples from the same tree
happy but lonely
thinkin’ that maybe
we should stop and stay a while.
And I think we both know
that if we take it nice and slow
I’m gonna love you
for a long long time.

Yes I think we both know
that if we take it nice and slow
you’re gonna love me
for a long
long
time.

200 Stories


You don’t like
What I’m telling you
You don’t hear
What I’m saying
You don’t see
when I look at you
You don’t try
To communicate
It’s like I’m talking to a wall
Over 200 stories tall

So what’s on your mind?
What do you see
Now that you’re staring back at me?
Have you made up your mind
Or are you setting me free
Now that you’ve got me on my
Yes you’ve got me on my knees

I don’t like
To keep bugging you
But I don’t want
To be bated
And I don’t care
What you say or do
But I don’t want to investigate
It’s like I’m living in a lie
Over 200 stories high

So what’s on your mind?
What do you see
Now that you’re staring back at me
Have you made up your mind
Or are you setting me free

And I am so tired
Of talking to myself
So uninspired
From sitting on your shelf
Looking for answers
But only left to guess
Won’t you please tell me
So I can put my heart to rest?

You don’t mind
What you’re telling me
You don’t care that I’m waiting
Well I don’t buy
What you’re selling me
And I don’t want to interrogate
It’s like a chapter in a book
Full of 200 stories

So what’s on your mind?
What do you see
Now that you’re staring back at me?
Have you made up your mind
Or are you setting me free
Now that you’ve got me on my knees
What’s on your mind?
What do you see
Now that you’re staring back at me?
Have you made up your mind
Or are you setting me free?
Now that you’ve got me on my
Yes you’ve got me on my knees

To Yesterday


Calling out
To yesterday
When hearts were open and
Free of decay
Before we learned
How to betray
I’m calling out
To yesterday
I’m calling out
To yesterday

Calling out
To memories
Full of emotion
And free of disease
Pictures painted
On the breeze
I’m calling out
To memories
I’m calling out
To memories

And I always thought
That our love was divine
A bond never broken
Or weathered by time
So I can’t talk
I can’t talk
Or change my mind.

Calling out
To innocence
Free of resistance
And full of suspense
Living life
Without pretense
I’m calling out
To innocence
I’m calling out
To innocence

And I always thought
That our love was divine
A bond never broken
Or weathered by time
So I can’t talk
I can’t talk
Or change my mind
Cuz I’m silenced
Oh I’ve been silenced
Inside

I’m calling out
To yesterday
When hearts were open
And free of decay
Before our love
Drifted far away
I’m calling out
To yesterday
I’m calling out
To yesterday.
