Glimpse
03:49
|

That night we drove through Colorado
The mountains were barely casting a shadow
But they rose in the morning light
A majestic view only in hindsight
Looking back it makes no sense
We saw everything but only caught a glimpse
I thought I saw you on Wednesday
Could've sworn that was you on the subway
When you were here, God I wish I'd known
How fast it would feel like a lifetime ago
Looking back it makes no sense
I saw everything but only caught a glimpse
Just the tip of the iceberg
We try to remember cause we're looking for evidence
That our eyes were open cause we blink and it's over
Looking back it makes no sense
We saw everything but only caught a glimpse

Make it Good
03:25
|

Doesn't matter if you know the truth
You're about to find out, aren't you
Cause my soul is naked, you see through
When I try to fake it
You push me to be better
Make the pieces fit together
Remind me life won't last forever, so
Make it good
No remorse, no regrets
Make it good
Just to see how good it gets
Live like the world has a spotlight on you
But even when no one can see what you do
Make it good
I'm like a secret you see inside of
With so much to hide I compromise
You say if I bare it all, then I might
Start to get it right
But now I'm ready to uncover
A deeper love that I've discovered
Cause that part of me will live forever, so I'll
Make it good
No remorse, no regrets
Make it good
Just to see how good it gets
Live like the world has a spotlight on you
But even when no one can see what you do
Make it good
You can't worry about breaking the rules
Who knows what could be possible
There's so much in this life, only you're meant to do
Make it so good that it's beautiful

Hourglass
03:09
|
|||
It doesn't feel like New Year's Eve
Though fireworks fill the sky in the east
Life does its dance on Earth's spinning stage
But I won't be turning the calendar page
Love was sweet at the start
And I opened my heart
Cause I always believed
There would be a happy ending
Ours was a book that skipped to the end
It was over when you let go of my hand
Sometimes a hook gets caught in the sand, but
Love is sweet at the start
And I opened my heart
Cause I always believed
There would be a happy ending
Why do I go on pretending
There's no time to kill
Soon the hourglass will stop descending
Life runs out and stands still
Is there a happy ending?
Love is sweet at the start
And I opened my heart
Cause I always believed
There would be a happy ending

Church Bells
02:51
|
|||
You'll wear those dirty shoes through the meadow today
When the church bells ring, when the church bells ring
And you will run to the door and send your troubles away
Where the church bells ring, but you don't go in
You feel your eyes well up and your chest start to burn
People marching in, angels hovering
You know the chords they play and when the choir takes its turn
But you don't go in, you let the church bells ring
AMEN, AMEN, AMEN
Where the babies cry and the tombs lay still
There the church bells ring, life begins and ends
You turn and face the sky and you cry until
No more church bells ring, there's only love within
AMEN, AMEN, AMEN
AMEN, AMEN, AMEN

Heartbreak
03:28
|

MY BAG'S AT THE FRONT DOOR
I'M NOT ON THE FENCE ANYMORE
ALL THAT'S LEFT IS GOODBYE
BABY I HURT SO BAD
I LOVE THE LOVE WE HAD
BUT WE BOTH KNOW - IT'S TIME
AND THE ONLY WAY TO THE OTHER SIDE
LET MY SKY FALL
LET MY EARTH QUAKE
LET IT RAIN DOWN
IF THAT'S WHAT IT'S GONNA TAKE
LET MY TEARS FLOW
I WON'T CRY FOREVER
TO GET MY LIFE TOGETHER
I NEED TO LET MY HEART BREAK
STARIN' OUT THE WINDOW
IN A TOWN THAT I HARDLY KNOW
SOMETIMES LOVE JUST AIN'T ENOUGH
AND BABY THAT'S WHAT I'M AFRAID OF
LET MY SKY FALL
LET MY EARTH QUAKE
LET IT RAIN DOWN
IF THAT'S WHAT IT'S GONNA TAKE
LET MY TEARS FLOW
I WON'T CRY FOREVER
TO GET MY LIFE TOGETHER
I NEED TO LET MY HEART BREAK
IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T LOVE YOU
WE'VE JUST BEEN GROWIN' APART
IT'S CRAZY WHAT WE GO THROUGH
JUST TO AVOID A BROKEN HEART

Don't you try to tell me someone's waiting
they're not waiting for you
Oh and don't you try to tell me that you're wanted
that you're needed, cause it's not true
I know why you're lonely
It's time you knew it too
No one will ever love you
No one will ever love you
No One will ever love you
Like I do
Why you always looking for the limelight
Ain't you satisfied with me
Oh for once why don't you get down off your high horse
you're no big deal, can't you see
I know why you're lonely
It's time you knew it too
No one will ever love you
No one will ever love you
No One will ever love you
Like I do
I'm all you got
I'm all you'll ever need
I'm all you'll ever have
No one will ever love you
No one will ever love you
No One will ever love you
Like I do

Enough
03:06
|
|||
I don't know how I'm gonna win this fight
Can't face this demon in the dark tonight
I'll run away, I'm better off
No more bruises, it's
ENOUGH
Where's the love I'm dreaming of
Is there an answer that's within my grasp?
I need some courage to unclench these hands
Is there a love I'm worthy of
Will it ever be
ENOUGH
Where's the love I'm dreaming of
Heal this hopeless soul and un-break these bones
Pull me from the edge
And show me once again until I look within
And finally see that I'm
ENOUGH
That's the love I'm dreaming of
I don't know how but I'm gonna win this fight…

Hold My Hand
03:34
|
|||
It's fine if you don't always miss me
I might forget when you last kissed me
The flame has faded truth be told
Down to embers of glowing coal
But it's still there and it burns slow
A spark ignites the moment you
HOLD MY HAND, BABY
HOLD MY HAND
We don't sit and talk for hours
What's the point to bring me fleeting flowers
We'll meet back in our weathered home
Where flustered chaos overflows
Those beaming rays we used to know
Break through the haze the moment you
HOLD MY HAND, BABY
HOLD MY HAND
It's still there and it burns slow
A spark ignites the moment you
HOLD MY HAND, BABY
HOLD MY HAND

Unbeatable
04:02
|
|||
Some battles can't be won
Though you fight unto the death
There's a prisoner of war
Lying in your bed
He wouldn't love you any less
If you lay down your arms instead
Who triumphs is not up to us
Standing outnumbered still we must face
Unbeatable battles
Unbeatable battles
Unbeatable
We stumble and we fall
With no guarantee we'll learn
But in the trenches where we crawl
Where prayers are seldom heard
There an impossible
Flame begins to burn
Attaining glory that will last
And greatness just beyond your grasp takes
unbeatable courage
Unbeatable courage
Unbeatable
In spite of choices that you've made
Or the hand that you've been dealt
You press on unafraid
Creating heaven in your hell
Just blood and tears in vain
As far as anyone can tell
They only see how armor hides your pain
But those scars turned losses into gain, (so) stand tall
Unbeatable warrior
Unbeatable warrior
Unbeatable

Last One
04:07
|

Red velvet seats, the smell of popcorn
I don't recall which movie played up on the screen
My pounding heart and chills all over
And suddenly we were the stars in every scene
I remember
We caught the last one
And stayed until the end, ooh
When they turned the lights on
We walked out into the night as more than friends
The drive across started out humid
We reached the desert and by Flagstaff we were high
We pitched our tent somewhere in Ventura
But home was waiting for us down the 101
I remember
Ours was the last one
Little gray house where the highway ends, ooh
And it didn't take long
In a town full of strangers, you find out who's a friend
La-di-da-di-la-di-dum...
You rarely say what you're feeling
So when you tell me that you love me I know it's true
I talk too much, I'm so emotional
Not every song I ever write gets through to you
But yours is the last one
Cause I saved it to the end, ooh
It's not just another love-song
Cause everywhere we've been, I never found as good a friend
La-di-da-di-la-di-dum...
