Get This Down
04:07

She comes just as everything
Is ready to go
Tip toes tip toes her way
A brazen blast of feedback
Not what I had in mind
Tip toes tip toes her way
I must feed her
I must feed her
I gotta get this down
She howls just as everything
Is ready to go

Breakfast

The day is alive
What will it be
We sit down together
And we start to talk
What will it be
What will it be

Set Me Up

Didn’t know love
Didn't know hope
Didn't know joy
Until I knew you
Didn’t know fear
Didn’t know patience
Didn't know worry
Until I knew you
Everything
Everything
I’ve ever done
Don’t even come close
The greatest thing
The greatest thing
In all this big wide world
Is you
Didn’t know high
Didn’t know low
Didn’t know anything
Until I knew you
All the songs
In all the world
Never set me up
All the lines
Ever on paper
Never set me up
All the hopes
I dared to hold
Never set me up
Everything
Everything
In all this big wide world
Is you

Either Way
03:56

|

We dream
You and me
We dream
Don't we
Tear the world apart
Or let it be
Find the hidden heart
Either way we will see
Are we
Ordinary
Maybe
Maybe
We dream
You and me
We dream
In our sleep

No Cigar
04:30
|
|
||
It’s just me here
Sitting at a table
Watching shit on cable
It’s just me here
Boiling up some eggs
Shaking in my legs
A knife a fork a spoon
It’s just me here
Lying on a bed
Living like the dead
Sleeping in till noon
I came this close
Locked away inside
I came this close
A prisoner of pride
Too damn close
Thank god no cigar

I stay out of your box
You stay out of mine
That’s how it has to be
For us to be all right
Keep it simple
Keep it quiet
Harmonize and hum along
To the tune of together

Perfect
05:55
|
|
||
Not perfect
You opaque
Me half-present
Not enough sunshine
Too much rain
We wait in the dark
The rain and the dark
Not perfect
But perfectly flawed
Not perfect
But perfectly flawed
Who knows how to live
What I know
I hope to die
Who knows how to live
What I know
I hope to die
With you
On a Sunday
