Here I Am
03:55
|

These years aren't forever
these years will close up
Constant changing
all is fading
there's no waiting
here I am
All those things I never
all those thoughts I dragged
now that I'm not younger
now that's all I have
Constant changing
all is fading
there's no waiting
here I am
Time's been eating at me
time is on my face
eyes are full of knowing
eyes are fraught with grace
Constant changing
all is fading
there's no waiting
here I am

This Is The Time
04:19
|

This is the time we're not waiting for
the only ride of our lives
so come and stay with me
this house is a fire
This is the time we're not waiting for
we've only got so much light
so come and sleep with me
this night is a wire
This is the time we're not waiting for
This is the time we're not waiting for
the only way to the stars
so come and fly with me
the sky is a briar
This is the time we're not waiting for

Take Back My Heartbreak
04:24
|
|||
Shoulda known this
but didn't notice
all that I'd thrown away
went to nowhere
you wouldn't be there
anymore
you couldn't stay
Take back all my
take back all my
heartbreak that's stuck inside
take back all my
Keeping feelings
and believing
in the spaces I saved
looking for new
but want the old you
like it was
can't be today
Take back all my
take back all my
heartbreak that's stuck inside
take back all my
Don't tell me, don't tell me no
don't tell me, don't tell me go
Take back all my
take back all my
heartbreak that's stuck inside
take back all my

All I Want Is You
04:15
|
|||
I'll tell you how really feel
one last time
and I promise not to get too real
if it makes you die
inside
Cos all I want is you
all I want is you
Yeah I know it's been a while
since you walked away from me
but I would run a thousand miles
to where you stay now
Cos all I want is you
all I want is you
Not sure where we go from here
I'll leave that up to you
but you only have my love to hear
is that so wrong
Cos all I want is you
all I want is you

Real Enough
05:02
|
|||
I'm getting kind of tired
I'm getting kind of bored
I've been here many times
I'll be here many more
Even if you stay til the morning
I don't know if this will be real enough
for us to begin being something
I wish I could tell you for sure
Here's what you're never finding
here's what you're searching out
Even if you stay til the morning
I don't know if this will be real enough
for us to begin being something
I wish I could tell you for sure
Don't tell me it's all my own doing
cos I already now
what kind of contradiction
I seem to be
Even if you stay til the morning
I don't know if this will be real enough
for us to begin being something
I wish I could tell you for sure

More Than A Miracle
03:49
|
|||
I looked in all the wrong places
to find right love
I kept going below
for what was above
as far as I can tell
the beauty of what was between us
doesn't happen more than once because
More than a miracle
you were
more than a miracle
now everything after you can't compare
more than a miracle
I can't but help and wonder
or try to divine
what would have happened
if I hadn't been so blind
it was so ordinary
I didn't realize
it was the face of magic
in a thin disguise
More than a miracle
you were
more than a miracle
now everything after you can't compare
more than a miracle
It must be easy now
for you to not think twice
about the time we overdosed
on paradise
More than a miracle
you were
more than a miracle
now everything after you can't compare
more than a miracle

Some Things
04:54
|
|||
Now and then
is more than I want to
turn again
back to what's passed
it's been a while
and now that I'm older
I feel the miles more
since you've been gone
Doesn't seem to matter
how much more of me dies
Some things you just don't get over
some things you can't leave behind
some things you just don't get over
some things will outlive your mind
Doesn't seem to matter
how much more of me dies
Some things you just don't get over
some things you can't leave behind
some things you just don't get over
some things will outlive your mind
I never don't think about it
I never don't think about it when I'm alone
if there's a way I can't find it
if there's a way I can't find it on my own
Doesn't seem to matter
how much more of me dies
Some things you just don't get over
some things you can't leave behind
some things you just don't get over
some things will outlive your mind

Before I Reach the Sea
04:22
|
|||
Never enough, always too much
of one thing or another
if I give up I'd be as stuck in this place
or some other cage
I can't seem to shake this from my mind
even in my sleep
yeah I know I've been going blind
that much I can see
I guess I'm asking for a little time
a little more relief
from this feeling that I will have died
before I reach the sea
These days ghost by
they don't care if they never
give you what you need
the sun glows down
the world spins round
not fast enough
to be set free
I can't seem to shake this from my mind
even in my sleep
yeah I know I've been going blind
that much I can see
I guess I'm asking for a little time
a little more relief
from this feeling that I will have died
before I reach the sea

Just Another Day
04:25
|
|||
Feelings have lately filled my eyes
when I look around
nothing much saintly in the skies
when you're underground
Sometimes it takes a little while
I don't know why
sometimes it takes a little while
Or just another day, way, say, yeah
Thinking is too long for my mind
when my heart allows
needings will get stronger with time
at least for right now
Sometimes it takes a little while
I don't know why
sometimes it takes a little while
Or just another day, way, say, yeah

Call It Even
05:14
|
|||
It's not too late to call it even
when we're lying on the floor
with all the things that we just couldn't say
making their way to the door, to the door
It's ok I've waited for you
I gave you time, it's all I've got
and now that you've come around
to my side of leaving
I've decided I will not, I will not
You were all that I ever needed
you were the best of what went wrong
I braved time for what I'm feeling
I braved the light with what it shone
Was this where we set the time bombs
or was it underneath the stairs
I can't quite tell anymore from where we've been standing
on the promise of new air, of new air
