Stranded 04:02
Stranded Verse 1 Sing a lullaby to me my love The wind is howling outside And I'm afraid We planned that yesterday we'd run But now the storms too fierce So we must stay Chorus How am I to know You won't leave me stranded alone You won't shut the door on me Prefer the winds to my shaking heart Verse 2 The skies are getting darker now The clouds are rolling in You turn away What happened to the days gone by The nights all filled with candlelight You used to smile like you knew my face Chorus How am I to know You won't be yourself anymore You won't turn around someday And remember what we used to say Chorus 2 Darling I won't run won't hide won't stray I am here in storm in sun in shade No matter how much time I have I'll love you till my dying breath Verse 3 The storm keeps getting thicker now The memories of you They fade away Verse 4 I wish we could retrace our steps Forget that we had ever Lost our way Chorus How am I to know You won't be yourself anymore You won't turn around someday And remember what we used to say Chorus 2 Darling I won't run won't hide won't stray I am here in storm in sun in shade No matter how much time I have I'll love you till my dying breath Outro Darlin I won't run x4

One Eye Open 03:38
One Eye Open Verse 1 Head out on the open road Danger Close so I’ve been told Can’t be sure if god will save my soul Oh this road, is long and dark Verse 2 See the others I used to know Though in their eyes something’s wrongs Still not sure who’s path I’m on Oh this road is long and dark Chorus Oh this road is long and dark Ever winding, ever cloudy Ever unsure of my footing Oh this road is long and dark Verse 3 It’s you who stands beside me Just but strangers yesterday How long till you turn against me Oh this road is long and dark Verse 4 You say love will keep us strong Feed and soothe us when times get hard I still sleep with one eye open Oh this road is long and dark Chorus Instrumental Ohh this road (ohh this road) Ohh this road (ohh this road) x2 Ever winding, ever cloudy Ever unsure of my footing Oh this road is long and dark

Into the Sea 03:43
Into the Sea Verse 1 When you left and went across the ocean I threw my heart away All I ever tried to do it love you But you just couldn't stay Verse 2 A girl dreams of finding a fella One who treats her like gold Well boy you never really showed me The dreams you held too close Chorus Well dreams can be stolen, borrowed and broken But darling what I’d do to share those dreams with you Dreams can be torn from the seams till there’s nothing left to be spoken of Oh you’ve broken my heart in two Verse 3 Well boy you never loved me The way I know I should be loved So I packed my bags with a promise You’ll never hold me anymore Verse 4 Well darling you say that I don’t love you Well now that just isn’t true Well I’d swim the length of this here ocean To spend just one more night with you Chorus Well dreams can be stolen, borrowed and broken But darling what I’d do to share those dreams with you Dreams can be torn from the seams till there’s nothing left to be spoken of Oh you’ve broken my heart in two Verse 5 Well I took my heart down to the ocean (I took my heart down to the ocean) And I threw it into the sea (I left you there by the sea) I threw it in one fluid motion (I left you adrift on the ocean) It’s no longer of use to me (you’re no longer of use to me) Chorus

Montreal 04:03
Montreal Verse 1 It’s a long way to Montreal And darling you’ve been gone for far too long I’ve gotta learn how to be strong Verse 2 Sometimes I think it’s you holding my hand And that maybe I’d be better off with another man I’ve gotta learn how to be strong Chorus You’re the best part of me A physical piece The strength that I need You’re the best part of me A physical piece The strength that I need Verse 3 Sometimes I wake up and still think you’re there I swear I feel your skin I swear I smell you’re hair Darlin you’ve been gone for too long Verse 4 Strength is something I always thought I had But now my legs can’t seem to help me stand Without you smiling back when I smile at you Chorus x 2 You’re the best part of me A physical piece The strength that I need Bridge Maybe this is not meant to be Maybe this distance is weighing on me (weighing on me) But I know that’s just not true No matter how hard I try Chorus x 4 You’re the best part of me A physical piece The strength that I need Verse 1 It’s a long way to Montreal And darling you’ve been gone for far too long I’ve gotta learn how to be strong
