bricks all lined up in the wall
are they fixin' to break, are they fixin' to fall?
there's a lot of people 'round here
do ya hold 'em so close, do ya hold 'em so dear?
oh man!
that's rough
when you feel so bad ya gotta act so tough
oh man!
that's hard
the moon's so bright ya can't see the stars
when nobody wants you around
oh, buddy, i want you around
the buildings rise up oh so tall
when i feel blue i look at them all
i got a lotta friends 'round here
when we grow apart do we lose what's near?
have a lotta feelings to say
how will they know once i've gone away?
had a lotta feelings to say

oh man!
that's rough
when you feel so bad ya gotta act so tough
oh man!
that's hard
the moon's so bright ya can't see the stars
oh man!
that's rough
when you feel bad ya gotta act so tough and-
when nobody wants you around
oh, buddy, i want you around

This Thing (Called Love)
03:15
|
|||
|
there's magic in the mundane
or so they say
let me tell ya man, i can't see it
but i'm sure it's not gone away
walk to my car every morning
saying 'something's happening soon'
even if it don't
you know i will be there waiting for you
(i hold my head up tired, i
i hold my head up, tired eyes, i
i hold my head up high)
I'm so tired
of this thing called love
but i'm still hopeful
for this thing called love
and i'm so sick
of this thing called love
but i've got the cure
it's this think called love
(i hold my head up tired, i
i hold my head up, tired eyes, i
i hold my head up high)
I'm so tired
of this thing called love
but i'm still hopeful
for this thing called love
and i'm so sick
of this thing called love
but i've got the cure
it's this think called love

New Apartment
03:15
|
|||
|
listen to that sound i hear a train
rolling by every single day
look at all the people, how they wave
i don't know how to say
i spent a year waking up just wanting to go back to bed
you know this easy new apartment's getting pretty damn bad for my head
walk up to my door i see a plane
this is how golden mornings are made
look at all the people, how they say
'how are you today'
i spent a year waking up just wanting to go back to bed
you know this easy new apartment's getting pretty damn bad for my head
and i could try my best but you know it will always be
the difference between what i am and what i see

I Don't Know You
03:49
|
|||
|
you're back now
to seeing
all those things that you needed
the hole in the ceiling
is bleeding down concrete
and your stuck now in your bed
all those thoughts in your head will swallow your mind
how many hours
have you spent
feigning excitement for those things you don't love anymore
i don't know you

Gifts of Parting Nature
03:06
|
|||
|
looking out my window i can see it crystal clear now
blue sky's gone, rain feels strong
o, joy! o, love! and o, behold now
like a big yawn
it's been so long
gifts of parting nature aim to say what's in my head now
i don't know when i'll see you again
crusted eyes will part awake in the light of morning
every day, a new way to say
how long can you wait for what you need?
how long do you think it'll really be?
red skies part away in the light of dawning
in this town i only wear brown
o, joy! o, love! and o, behold now
like a big yawn
it's been so long
gifts of parting nature aim to say what's in my head now
i don't know when i'll see you again
how long can you wait for what you need?
how long do you think it'll really be?
how long 'til you're proud of what you make?
how long do you think it'll really take?

Old House
04:10
|
|||
|
You go back to the old house
and look for what's gone, it's ought to be there
You walk through the front door
and make your way down to your old room
To find out it's nothing
but a record you made
Documenting the time there
as something much more than you are
as you are now
And every time I see it come around
i get so melancholy I cry out
'it's more than just a house'
And you stumble back home now
and you think to yourself,
'no home at all'
And the letters and the drawings
are the only memories that remind you
That it happened
only we know
but i wouldn't trade it for a single difference
Your time there was something
much more than you are
as you are now
And every time I see it come around
i get so melancholy I cry out
'it's more than just a house'

Apple Tree
02:21
|
|||
|
i want to be
at the top of an apple tree
with you
talking about all the things we wanna see
and i might say
'i wanna see something great'
and you might say
as the tree begins to sway
'with my friends
just singing, laughing
out in the snow
with my friends
just singing, laughing
wondering where to go'

Lucky
04:04
|
|||
|
i have found
a little silver,
a golden dream to keep me on my feet
o,
when i lift my head up high i can see it come around
i feel a little lucky now
i think i see it coming 'round
i dug deep
to find what i could keep
it turned to be
everything i'll ever need
the rivers bend and the rivers swell in perfect harmony
i feel a little lucky now
i think i see it coming 'round
i feel a little lucky now
i think i see it coming 'round

Honey
01:08
|
|||
|
walk on the train tracks
or walking to school
look in my eyes, are they green or blue?
i love you
and you love me
i'm your baby and you're my honey
walk on the train tracks
after you're gone
the days'll be lonely
and the nights'll be long
but i'll have one thing
that'll carry me through;
you loved me
and i loved you
yes, i loved you
and you loved me
there'll never be honey
quite as sweet

Hide away for a little while
Sit around 'til you start to smile
Climbing atop the tree tops, I know this ain't any kind of life
Hide Away for a little while
I can go here any time I want
How long can you stand still before reaching out for something you need?
It's enough to make you come home surely
It's enough to make you lose your head
Hide away for a little while
Sit around 'til you start to smile
Climbing atop the tree tops, I know this ain't any kind of life
Hide Away for a little while
I can go here any time I want
How long can you stand still before reaching out for something you need?
It's enough to make you come home surely
It's enough to make you lose your head

Brother
03:05
|
|||
|
i saw the oil fields lighting up the sky
and just the thought of it could make me cry
i saw the leaves turn from green to brown
it's been about four months since i left town
and i think i ought to spend some time alone
