so we drive, drive, drive all the way to Fort Bragg
you ask me why, why, why we'd do something like that
i know it's nine, nine, nine in the evening & it's gonna be
another five, five, five before you see me
'cause when was the last time that we broke
when was the last time that we broke
why was the last time that we could say
that we had broken away from all of these
cycles & circles & somethings that bind us up tight
sometimes it's easy to get stuck in the pattern's of life
so give us directions 'cause we're up for a drive
we're needing this road trip to remind ourselves we're alive
& we wake up & we take a minute to see
what the night had so casually hidden from our view
and it's amazing, what just breathing in
the pacific ocean air can do
'cause when was the last time that we spoke
when was the last time that we spoke
why was the last time that we could say
that we spoke of breaking away from all of these
cycles & circles & somethings that bind us up tight
sometimes it's easy to get stuck in the pattern's of life
so give us directions 'cause we're up for a drive
we're needing this road trip to remind ourselves we're alive
reminding ourselves we're alive

Goodnight
04:26

i can pretend that i'm alright
but it's just a matter of time
before you see that i'm
i'm not as strong as you
i may not have told you that i'm not
the superman you thought
but i would have told you what
that i'm not as strong as you
so goodnight, goodnight
i've tried, i've tried, to hold on
but i know i'm a mess
my body's a wreck
& all i can do is lie awake
i don't mean to complain
but i've been here for days
& i don't know how much more i can take
maybe you're wonderin' where i've gone
& why i don't respond
but then before too long
i'm right back there with you
give me some time to stay awake
& give myself a break
if that is what it takes
to be back there with you
so goodnight, goodnight
i've tried, i've tried, to hold on
but i know i'm a mess
my body's a wreck
& all i can do is lie awake
i don't mean to complain
but i've been here for days
& i don't know how much more i can take

Don't Forget

don't forget comfy beds & breakfast
we would spend all day making
cause everybody has something, something better than me
& distance makes it easy to forget about our dreams
so please, won't you give me
one more chance to be with you
donÕt ask me why, i have a hard time believing that i'm worth it to love
that always seems to happen when i'm thinking too much
and i'm not sure why, it seems so long since yesterday
let's try and get things back to the way they were
so please, won't you give me
one more chance to be with you
when you fall, fall, fall, fall asleep
when you fall, fall, fall, fall asleep
'cause i don't know if i'll be there
be there when you wake
wont you spend this night with me, wont you lay here
by my side & say that everything will be alright
and i'm not sure why, it seems so long since yesterday
let's try & get things back to the way they were
so please, won't you give me
one more chance to be with you
when you fall, fall, fall, fall asleep
when you fall, fall, fall, fall asleep

Summer Roof
04:23
|
|

just look up at the stars
wouldn't it be nice to see them all fall down
i got a pocket full of nickels & a couple rusty dimes
to see them break the world apart
you say you want to be mother earth
wouldn't it be nice if we could kick that off today
we could load up all the animals in the ark
and watch them all wash away
so we sit on the roof
we talk about our fears
& we hope these days
will never disappear
when we sit on the roof
& we hope
somewhere, somehow, someday about now
my thoughts will change & i'll get over you
but it's so hard to tell the brain
that things have changed and they're not the same
i'm not trying oh so hard to get over you
so we sit on the roof
we talk about our fears
& we hope these days
will never disappear
when we sit on the roof
& we hope
we wouldn't change a thing about
these summer nights on the roof
we wouldn't change a thing about
these summer nights with you

Love To See You Smile
03:02

i pick you up
i take your mind off
the worries of your life
i hold you close
i look you square in the eyes
& i say to you
don't you cry
it'll go by
remember that i love you
& i'd love to see you smile
you pick me up
you take my mind off
the worries of my life
you push your lips
against my ear
& you say to me
don't be sad
in the long run it's not that bad
i love you
& i'd love to see you smile
