A Good Story 03:02
I’ve been awake all morning It’s raining, it’s pouring Old man, you’re snoring You’re a nursery rhyme A sweet lullaby, a good story But I wouldn’t’ wake you up Much as I’m cravin’ that human touch And I never say this stuff But you’re a sweet dream of mine At the scene of the crime, I’m not sorry I’m not sorry It’s a good story I’ve been on fire all evening I’m hooked on the sound of your breathing The smoke in your lungs don’t need a reason But you’re my kind of wine A dry glass of white A tall drink of water Lookin’ so fine Nursin’ your wine like all we got is time in this story I’m not sorry- I love a good story Been trainin’ my dragons and chasin’ my demons Playing with angels, fighting for freedom Tasting the danger, lovin’ the feeling I guess it’s a sign of times That I’m going in blind

You are red, red wine I’ve been drinking white And if I could bottle the time I would drink it all night ‘Cause you look at me with something in your eyes It’s a comfortable truth that I don’t recognize You look at me with something in your eyes Please, I’ve never loved like this Give me a chance, yeah I never loved like this Hold my hand You are just in time You’ve been on my mind And if there were a name for this high I would scream it all night ‘Cause I’ve always wondered if I could fly But I can’t risk the fall if it’s not worth the climb I’ve always wondered if I could fly You look at me with something in your eyes It’s a comfortable truth that I don’t recognize You look at me at something in your eyes I’ve always wondered if I could fly But I can’t risk the fall if it’s not worth the climb I’ve always wondered if I could fly You are red, red wine I’ve been drinking white If I could bottle the time I would drink it all night

Storm 03:52
All these words of wisdom pouring in I’ve been sheltered safe and warm I’m afraid you’re a fair weather friend, my love And I’ve been asking for a storm Honey, you loved me Like it was goin’ out of style (honey, honey) But honey, you can’t trust me Could you forgive this reckless child (honey, honey) Throw me in the ocean Take me out on the tide I wanna fight for something I wanna fight for my life I wanna be someone I wanna be terrified I wanna feel something I wanna feel alive Alive I’m afraid you’re a fair weather friend, my love And I’ve been asking for a storm Honey, you loved me like it was growing on the trees (honey) But honey, you can’t trust me, it’s blowing in the trees (honey) So take me to the country Take me into the wild Oh, get me lost in the woods I wanna run for my life I wanna be someone I wanna be terrified I wanna feel something I wanna feel alive

Sand 03:00
I guess I shouldn’t blame it all on you It takes two to break through I guess I had to learn somehow The missing pieces can’t be found inside of you I guess I shouldn’t ask If I’m so afraid to know I’m drawing circles on a map Round all the places I could go I’m drawing circles on a map I guess you shouldn’t ask if you don’t want to know I’m writing your name in the sand On all the beaches where I go I’m writing your name in the sand I guess I shouldn’t ask ‘Cause I don’t need to know I’m running barefoot on the sand You’re standing in the snow I’m running barefoot on the sand I guess I should speak now Or forever hold my piece I guess I should leave now Before the wind catches me I guess I should reach out Before the rain comes down on me I think I am free now I think I am free now I think I am free now I think I am free now

You’re calm in a crisis, you go where the fire is It’s all about timing wiith thunder and lighting Praying on a shooting star, breaking into my car I pray you stay just who you are And you are good for some feeing, but feelings are fleeting So as words lose their meaning, remember this evening You’re calm in a crisis, I’m rolling the dice and It’s all about timing when committing a crime Praying on a shooting star, breaking into my car I pray you stay just who you are And you are good for a weekend, but weekends are fleeting So as time loses meaning, remember this season Does my absence make your heart grow fonder Should I stay away a little bit longer Can we fight this fire with water Burn bridges rebuild them stronger

Drawn to You 03:31
I was drawn to you I am flawed like you You have to chase after my train of thought You have to take me with a grain of salt And I know you won’t be mine, yeah But can’t blame a girl for trying Can’t blame a girl for trying Feels so good when the sun is shining But can’t blame those rainy skies, yeah Can’t blame those rainy skies, yeah Don’t say that it’s not in the cards You’ve been hiding them up your sleeve All evening Don’t say it isn’t written in the stars I’ve been reading your heart All evening You were drawn to me You are strong like me Do I mistake you for the hope that I’ve found? I tried to chase you but I’m slowing down We’re so good at denying So don’t shame a girl for crying Don’t shame a girl for crying Feels so good when the sun is shining Don’t forget that silver lining That silver lining Don’t say that it’s not in the cards You’ve been hiding them up your sleeve

I went out for a walk on a cold winter night I did not see Saturn return, but the moon sure did look fine No jupiter either, but Venus and Mars were bright Been reading what’s written in the stars for quite some time I don’t trust my memory, I don’t trust my mind I don’t trust my tongue to speak the right words after all this wine Wouldn’t trust a feeling, couldn’t trust this heart of mine Been trying not to say “I love you” for quite some time Someday, baby, you’ll leave me, leave me lonely and cryin’ It won’t matter how hard that I try, it’s only a matter of time ‘Cause if you don’t then I’ll leave you at the scene of the crime Been daring you to break my heart for quite some time I went out for a walk on a cold winter day Mercury’s retrograde again and I don’t know what to say Must be this moon in Pisces, I can’t rationalize Been praying you might send me a sign for quite some time Must be this moon in Pisces, I can’t rationalize Been praying you might send me a sign for quite some time

Tree Story 03:04
You can’t build a house with a cactus tree You can’t build a house with me I’m hollow in the middle, thick skinned, a little brittle More than I wanted to be You saddle up and say you wanna settle down among the trees But I will leave you wondering You tie a tight rope on those high hopes You find yourself climbing Though I will leave you by the spring You can’t build a house from this evergreen This cedar means too much to me Don’t cut me down, I won’t stick around I am not yours to keep You sail in from the city, say you’ll settle down with me, among the trees But I will leave you on your knees That silver lining you just can’t stop seeing Has lost some meaning for me You can’t build a house from this evergreen My freedom means too much to me Don’t let me fall, let me stand tall Be all that I want to be I am not yours to keep
