Restless Darlin' 02:40
lyrics

You go east, I'll go west we'll see, who'll pass the test, darlin I'll take your hand, I'll lead you down You know I want to show you around You and I crossed paths this time Different lines of the same kind Sometimes love is hard to find You know you've been on my mind Ooh Can't you tell I'm falling Ooh I know you are too Ooh darlin im so restless For you Ooh ooh ooh And we never got along If one was right the other wrong Funny how things change How your whole life can be rearranged Ooh Can't you tell I'm falling Ooh I know you are too Ooh darlin im so restless For you Ooh ooh ooh Ohh There's no way of telling Ohh where we'll end up now Ohh darlin I'm so restless For you

Less is More (live at distortion) 03:01
lyrics

You said you needed me to be there Sunday I wanted to impress Darlin I showed up one day early In my Sunday best You told me once that you loved the Beatles So I learned every damn song I wanted someday to play them for you So you could sing along The truth is you didn't even know the tune Less is more, if I've learned one thing Less is more, darlin you taught me Less is more, everyday now Less is more I said you needed to be there Sunday Didn't care if you were a mess When I showed up you looked so handsome Even if you were overdressed That's the way that you are, You always go too far Darlin I like you just the way you are Don't have to try so hard Truth is I don't need the stars and the sky Less is more, don't you see that Less is more, darlin I believe that Less is more, all I gotta say is Less is more It's the truth, all I really want is you Less is more, of I've learned one thing Less is more, all I gotta say is Less is more Less is more

Eye of the Storm 03:14
lyrics

Sailing into the eye of a storm Haul in on the mainsheet and batten down the doors Sailing into the eye of a storm I don’t know if I can be a sailor anymore Verse 1 – Strum When I was just a young boy I was raised on the ocean, and all of its joys Then when I grew into a man My father gave me the boat he’d made with his hands Chorus 2 Sailing into the eye of a storm The wind cries like a baby from its mothers scorn Sailing into the eye of a storm Though our hull is battered and our sails are torn Verse 2 When we first set sail for the isle It was to be a short journey, just a little while Then the wind started to blow The fog rolled in the rain came down, we lost the suns glow Verse 3 Then the sea it started to churn And for the soft ground my legs did yearn Never had I feared the sea But a cold wave of fear now washed over me Chorus 3 Sailing into the eye of a storm Tossed on the ocean, cold and alone Sailing into the eye of a storm Does it have to end this way, so dark and forlorn

Reds & Golds (live at distortion) 03:56
lyrics

Turn, turn away from me End, everything that we worked so hard to start Lie, you used lie next to me Tear, you'd Tear away the sheets Now, the bed that we made is cold you see, I lie here alone And I try so hard to pretend, you Feel the same way I do Now the truth that at our feet I don't know how these wounds will heal I can't stay in bed, anymore Cold, everything colder now Fall, feel like I'm falling down You've, broken my crown Leaving me to pine Chorus Reds and golds, this is the fall of our love Tears like leaves, fall soft on our sheets I can't stay in bed I can't stay in bed Anymore

In Spite of the Weather 03:04
lyrics
buy track
SECTION 1 In spite of the weather, we’re in bed Not planning to leave This day gets better, by the hour The sun shines bright, through our window We should probably go outside But I just want to stay a while longer Ohh the sun is shining bright But not as bright as your smile So in spite, of the weather We’re in bed SECTION 2 Could be your eyes dear, that draw me near Or the calm in your voice The cars keep on passing, down our street But I can hardly hear them anymore We should probably go outside But I just want to stay a while longer Oh the day is passing by But the clock’s hands are staying still So in spite of the weather We’re in bed PIANO/GUITAR BREAK So in spite, of the weather We’re in bed

Part 2 (Swim) 03:22
lyrics

Verse 1 Left my window open and the rain came in I wish that I was joking, ohh I just can’t win Now I’m washed away, down my stairs Lying in the basement on a broken chair Bridge And I don’t know how, I’m going to find dry ground (x2) Now the waters rising up over my head It's getting to cold for me to tread I wish I had closed my window tight now I'm feeling numb and I'm losing my sight Bridge Part 2 If I could swim out of this basement (if I could slow the rush of water) Tread water out of here (If I could slow the rising tide) Shake the cold off and start kicking (take things back to where we started) Shed the weight of my mistakes (Scale it back till I was safe and sound) Swim (swim) away from here Find a way through all tis fear Find a way to get back to you my dear Swim away from here

Matchstick 03:54

Light a match before we all fall down Dust to dust on the ground Ashes to ashes we all fall down Light a match set fire to the ground Glitter gold Blackened sky Dust to dust say goodbye Shining stars soon must leave the sky moons will rise then fall out of the night oh my darling keep me in your mind I must leave you don’t hold too tight Glitter gold Blackened sky Dust to dust say goodbye For all the stars and moons in the sky Like matchsticks must flicker and die Doesn’t mean our love couldn’t survive But its not our time love, not this time Glitter gold Blackened sky Dust to dust say goodbye Glitter gold Blackened sky Dust to dust say goodbye

Breakwater (Live at Distortion) 02:44
lyrics

You feel like the waves, are crashing in And you're not sure, if you'll sink or swim Well darling won't you take my hand Try and help me understand Life doesn't always follow a plan Let me be your breakwater, I will break the waves You know I'll protect you, from all these darkened days Let the ocean wash o'er you, I'll wash the salt away Let me be your breakwater, I will break the waves Breakwater breakwater breakwater break Breakwater breakwater breakwater break You say that money's tight and things are getting dark You can't rub two coins together to make a spark But you and I will make it through Where the darkness lives the light shines through Life doesn't always follow a plan Chorus Breakwater breakwater breakwater break

Lifeblood 02:19

Time is just a ticking clock A quarter for a pay phone call It takes more and more to keep on working More and more to keep on turning Round I am just a simple man Until you take me by the hand You show me that I’m more than just a Simple clock that needs the time to Keep it turning And I Need to tell you Everyday love Everytime My heart is beating You’re the lifeblood that keeps me turning Round We are spinning every way hurling faster every day It takes more than life to keep us living More than just the earth that’s moving Beneath our feet And I Need to tell you Everyday love Everytime My heart is beating You’re the lifeblood that keeps me turning Round And I (Need to tell you) Need to tell you (everyday love) Everyday love Everytime My heart is beating You’re the lifeblood that keeps me turning Round
