Spent a week in a dusty library Waiting for some words to jump at me We met by a trick of fate French navy, my sailor mate We met by the moon on a silvery lake You came my way, said I want you to stay You with your dietary restriction Said you love me with a lot of conviction I was waiting to be struck by lightning Waiting for somebody exciting like you Oh the thing that you do You make me go woo With the things that you do, you do, you do I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it I'll be criticized for lending out my eye I was criticized for letting you break my heart Why would I stand the disappointed looks Fooling all but I'm on tenterhooks Ooh with the looks On tenterhooks Ooh with the looks, the looks, the looks I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it Relationships were something I used to do Convince me they are better for me and you We met by a trick of fate French navy, my sailor I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it I want to control it But love, I couldn't hold it I wanted to control it But love, I couldn't hold it |

If you were a season you would be in bloom
I wish I had good reason to see you soon No need to convince me that you were a catch I bought my ticket and so at last Who was it that said that love conquers all? Oh, he was a fool 'cause it doesn't add up Should I believe you told a lie On the way to my heart and on the way back? Are my eyes the coldest blue? You said once this was true If it is I don't know what I'll do 'Cause I'm stuck with them and they're stuck on you Was I quite bad that nothing could never challenged anyone Or was I a lazy lazy snake? Do you want me to be a gentle diplomat? Oh, you can beg and you can plead Are my eyes the coldest blue? You said once this was true and if it is I don't know what I'll do 'Cause I'm stuck with them and they're stuck on you Are my eyes the coldest blue? You said once this was true If it is I don't know what I'll do 'Cause I'm stuck with them and you're stuck on you 'Cause I'm stuck with them and they're stuck on you I'm stuck with them and they're stuck on you I'm stuck with them and they're stuck on you |

How many times have you told me you wanna die?
How many times have you told me now that you've tried? Ooh and how many times will i let you get away with murder? Ooh and how many times will you make me feel more alive? Hey, I got a feeling there's something going wrong I put my thoughts in a letter, send it when I'm feeling strong In the time you became the girl that you wanted to be Oh I told you all along there was no point looking to me Oh, it's been hard to be strong All of this going on Yes, it's been hard to be strong With all this going on I've been lonely too, like you, I'm just like you.... I'm just like you..... People have been travelling miles just to hear us sing It's a February night & I don't wanna feel anything To get away, maybe I could sell kisses In Portland I tried my pretty hand at fishing Oh, it's been hard to be strong With all this going on Yes, it's been hard to be strong With all this going on I've been lonely too, like you, I'm just like you.... I'm just like you.... I'm just like you.... I'm just like you..... Hey, I got a feeling there's something going wrong I put my thoughts in a letter, send it when I'm feeling strong |

There's flowers in my house
And I bought them myself No surprises in the record collection You must have thought I was someone else I'm still afraid to get lost In a city I might explore But I'm not afraid to have An eloquent boy at my door at my door at my door at my door Oh you want to be a writer Fantastic idea You say you've never seen America I really think you'll like it there Maybe you should travel with me Is this the best idea Because you've never seen a Redwood and you've never touched a deer a deer a deer dear a deer a deer my dear Are swans deceiving us all? Oh I for one should know I never felt myself so graceful And I never swam so slow so slow so slow so slow... |

James, he came to my place
He said he had to see my face He hopes that we can still be friends In his own way, he'll love me til the end And, James, he came to the door Wanting to know for sure Why love gets up and goes I'm sorry, but it had no place to grow Oh, James. My love for you is stronger, don't you know? I'd like to celebrate you, dear All in all, it's been a pretty good year I looked deep within myself I got scared by just how hard I fell Oh, James. You broke me, I thought I knew you well. Oh, you had me Honey and me, oh, sun and the moon I'll be fine by June I could tell that you weren't well Oh, James. You broke me, I thought I knew you well Oh, can't you see you belong with me? I could tell that you weren't well Oh, James. You broke me, I thought I knew you well |

Honey...
I've been really struggling To think of you and I being friends I blow hot and cold Yeah, I’m like a yo-yo So I don’t think I should see you again Careless love and I didn't talk for it wasn't my style I've had enough I don't think that we could really be friends And honey, I've been really struggling To think of you and I anonymous You're off to mourning so The love you give ebb and flows So I don't think I should see you again Careless love and I didn't talk for it wasn't my style I've had enough For I don't think that we can really be friends But I'll try again Oh, the love I feel for you it's real Oh, the love I feel for you it is real Honey, I've been really struggling to see this thing through To the end Careless love I didn't talk for it wasn't my style I've had enough For I don't think that we can really be friends But I'll try again |

You kissed me on the forehead
Now this kiss is giving me a concussion We were love at first sight Now it's crush It's crushing I traced your steps through the city of romance lazily I took to the desert with your harshest words and they saved me I'll bail you out again I've got the readies I'm not a child I know We're not going steady Your pain's gigantic but it's not as big as your ego Promise not to abandon you, please let me go Now I've been worrying about your feelings Yeah they were worth protecting They say I'm too kind and sentimental Like you could catch affection Oh in your eyes there's a sadness Enough to kill the both of us Are those eyes overrated? They make me want to give up on love I'll brace myself for the loneliness Say hello to feelings that I detest This maudlin career has come to an end I don't want to be sad again This maudlin career has come to an end I don't want to be sad again This maudlin career has come to an end I don't want to be sad again This maudlin career has come to an end I don't want to be sad again |

I'm in a van,
And you're holding my hand And you were travelling with me through forest and sands I've been ever so needy learning your language And you've been taking full advantage, haven't you? Oh, don't say it's true I've been so afraid, I'm a sadness again And we kissed once, even that was the last I know I need more than given Moments and sentimental stories Words only spoken seemingly That I'm warming your heart that way Oh, it feels like none of this is real I'll pretend that my heart and my head are well But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze, Like a river in Toronto, Then I'd bleed please, You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside Oh, it feels like none of this is real I'll pretend that my heart and my head are well But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze, Like a river in Toronto, Then I'd bleed please, You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside It feels like none of this is real I'll pretend that my heart and my head are well But if the blood pumping through my veins could freeze, Like a river in Toronto, Then I'd bleed please, You said I made you feel warm, said I made you feel warm inside |

Drinking whiskey reminds me of you
You're the first in ages to have gotten through I know you mean well, I know that you do But sooner or later you're going to break me in two Were my pupils dilated? Could you tell that I liked you? We were so unlikely You flirt with an ex, put me to the test Still I want to tell you that I love you the best We turned the radiators on and there was no way back Did you know You had The Plough star trail on your back? Your voice is quiet and I need it loud In the night you went up And the morning you went down It's like you to forbid me to say goodnight I had your brown eyes and limbs On me through the night These words are weak and to your dislike You'll never believe them so I guess it's alright Do you like the view I show you? I say look at the light Do you still miss the way that I hold you? In other towns and cities Who's holding you tonight? The dresses came out of the bag then the tears came Drinking has never been the same again I shared your trouble, I shared your weight I lost it with you today We don't share a birthday but we do share a sign We shared something or was it all in my mind There was talk of love and how I need it back I'd be better for you than that last love of mine You're in another town or city You mean nothing to me tonight |

A half full moon in Mexico City I think of you
When I saw the Southern Cross I wished you had too I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew But it's as warm as saxophones And honey in the sun for you I've been spending half the year In a plane going up and down You've been seeing other people from a nearby town Been obsessing and getting depressed about us Excess baggage and other stupid band stuff I wish my heart was cold But it's warmer than before I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew But it's as warm as saxophones And honey in the sun for you When you said the veins in my left hand Were shaped like a tree Was that the very last time you really looked at me? I'm in training to become as cold as ice I'm determined to protect my feelings disguise When I said I didn't love you I told you a lie There no one above you although I try Would you laugh at the time I spent calling your name Over and over and over and over again? The trouble is I got me close to hating me When I wake up in the morning its your face I see Where you once made me feel less afraid You've got me pouring myself all over this page |
